Addy. She's definitely a keeper. Bill thank you so much for taking her under your wing. I remember when she saw your car at the parts store I think it was Marks. It seems like so long ago it's great to see it all coming together. She definitely has racing fuel pumping through her.

I’m sorry but that sounds weird. Calling a kid a keeper is a bit weird. Im about 100% sure you didn’t intend for it to be or even think about it like. I understand what you are trying to say.

Bill, Can I run E85 in my 2002 Big Block 496 without any changes and obtain performance gains? I know tuning for E85 is better. Did GM design my Big Block to accept both and will I see any benefit without changing anything?

Thanks Bill for bringing us along with Addy!!!The smiles were priceless!!!

Bill,Just remember every time you spent late nights editing and pushing to get a video out and the toll it took to do that and thinking man is this worth it? Just look at the new prodigy you created and the smile on her face. Without all the content you labored to put out Miss Addy wouldn't be where she is today. You made her dreams come true today and that is so AWESOME ! The world needs more mentors like you to make a difference. Congrats Old Man!

One good thing about girls this age vs boys is that girls tend to be more cautious and are better at listening to instructions than boys. I know when I was 15 everything I rode or drive was balls to the wall.

Seeing Addy so excited, puts a smile on my face.

Your ability to teach , and willingness to do it is priceless. I am 75 years old, and have been a street racer since I was 16 years old. I have nothing but love for you and your family. The greatest show on earth. All my love to you and your family, for all you do.

Such an amazing young lady. Can’t wait to see her whomp whomp whomp to the finish this season.

Our middle daughter started in JS when she was 14 in our 2016 V6 Durango She's now 17, has her competition license and is driving her 9 second, pump gas, twin turbo S10 She's really wanting to be in the 8s by fall.

Oh man it makes me smile when the next generation has a passion for cars. Addy is quickly evolving into a genuine badass, but then again look at her mentors! Ol` Man & SRC? Couldn`t have asked for better teachers & mentors! I hope Addy knows she's got the support from all of us fans, keep it up Addy! Your doing awesome. Can`t wait to see future vids of you putting that Gapplesauce on those other teenagers! 😊

Addie is so lucky to have you help her. I know you will give her all the pro tips because that's how you roll . Good job 👍🏻👍🏻

Addy is such a trooper. I love that she thinks racing is the best thing in the world. It was an emotional moment to see her race for the first time. Great job by all of you who worked so hard to make this happen.

Enthusiasm like that there’s only one way for her to go. That’s straight to the top. God bless her, had me tearing up

Love seeing how far Addy has come and grown up. Mum and dad must be so proud of her, rightly so! I'm sure she'll smash it

Bill, it is crazy how much you’ve changed I the last few years. I’ve watched since the beginning of src. It wasn’t that long ago you said, “I have no desire to race anything at all.” I’m happy you are happy Bill. Everything you have now and is coming to you in the future , you deserve sir. Thank you for all you do, thank you to your whole family for putting it all out there so we all can ride this amazing venture with you. Wesley

@@theoldmansgarage- When you find yourself getting upset and impatient with Billy just remind yourself that there are millions of parents who’s kids have moved far away (often with the grandkids) and in many cases cut off contact with their parents. This is extremely common in our country these days. You are BLESSED to not only still have your kids close to you but still in your lives. Keep reminding yourself of that Bill. That could change faster than you can imagine.

Great job Bill teaching Addy the ropes! I really enjoyed watching her drive her Malibu at the dragstrip,get more videos of her running her car this summer.

Bill you are the privileged one for helping Addy on her way and getting to see the look on her face when she gets the milestones.

Man, that is so awesome to see. Mom dad and, of course Mr.bill you put the biggest smile on that young lady's face, so big brought happy tears to my eyes seeing the greatest appreciation in her smile. She will do well She has a great co pilot 👍

Addy is an absolute credit to her mom and dad.......what a well mannered young lady! Well done Bill for helping this young lady indulge in her passion! Just goes to show, there are some respectful kids out there! Gives me hope!!

The look on her face was priceless a memory that will forever be locked in time way to go she has a awesome teacher 👊👊👊✌

made my heart happy to see you taking her down the track, what a wonderful kid, and bless you and your family for taking her under your wing

addy is paving the way for the new generation and luckily with a platform to spread it to the world the passion she has for the sport is truely amazing congrats to her parents for supporting her and making this possible!

Hey Bill! Now that was a real pleasure to watch. She did a fantastic job. Good for you. Thanks Bill for taking the time to show and teach her right. She will become a sharp little race girl for sure. Can’t wait to see her compete. As always stay safe and watch that girl. 😀😀❤️

I'm about to turn 74. I 've loved this sport since I was about 5 years old. Of all the years of watching and being involved in it, this is by far one of the coolest things I have ever seen. Great job by everyone involved. You all can be very proud. Go Addy!!!!!!

Had tears in my eyes when that little finally got to run that car down the track 😢she listened to every word you told her❤ she's going big and she has an awesome teacher. Much love brother from southern Indiana 🙏 safe racing this year for you and the family 🙏

THAT'S WAY COOL BILL ! I'm not sure who had more fun, Addie or you !! She's definitely a diamond in the rough. Gotta get her a cool nickname to put on her window, and then her KZread journey begins. Hey, I'm 75 and way over here on N.H., but I can feel the excitement building in Ohio already. Watch out Billy and Tommy---you've got "Double A's" (Allison &Addie) coming for ya !!!

Brought a tear to my eye watching her. Reminded me of when I made my first pass at 16. So awesome

Don't ask me why but Miss Addie reminds me sooooo much of my aunt Shirley. I think it's the fire and passion in her eyes for racing, drag racing specifically. She has this amazing, uncanny ability that comes so naturally, Addie is young and raw with still much to learn, but her talent and IQ of the sport at her age is wiser beyond her years. I think she may possess the same potential as aunt Shirley an NHRA legend in and of herself. Thank you for taking this amazing young lady under your wing and teaching her the right way, manners, and etiquette required in this sport. As always much love n prayers from my family to yours.🙏💜

Great job with the Addy program by everyone involved. She is living the dream! I can remember being that age and couldn’t wait to get behind the wheel of a race car. I was 16 when I made my first pass. Thanks for sharing these moments Bill. Best of luck to her!

It’s so cool seeing Danny Archers old Malibu back on the track! My hats off to you Bill for your efforts in making Addy’s dream a reality and mom and dad for their support as well! I’m sure Danny will be excited to see this video! Please keep use updated on her future in drag racing!

Addy smack talking Tanner had me rolling. As someone around her age, I love seeing stuff like this. I aint got the money to go racing and my mom would kill me if I did, so its cool to see another young person doing this stuff and being eager to learn. She has got a good teacher too, thats for sure.

Thanks for one of the best videos on KZread. That was amazing , you and Addy running down the track for the first time. She is impressive and will fill those shoes really quickly and be a killer at drag racing. Not only drag racing but life as a whole. You are paving permanent paths for her that you can't put a price on. Thank you for that video i hope i can do the same for my daughter. She is 13 going on 21. The Chevelle is in her sights and I know she will be doing the same thing with me. I cant wait as a Dad. Thank you for the guidance and life lessons that you give. Your one of my favorite people. Thanks ole man

Old Man's Garage! Love you guys!

This is great to see and Addie's excitement and eagerness to learn and compete is possibly the best thing that I've seen all day.... Probably all week. I wish the absolute best of luck to her!

Been watching since you began your channel, it’s really good to see you guys pay attention to the younger generations. Keep up the great work, Bill.

It’s nice to see youth enjoying and interested in the sport, the majority of our youngsters nowadays live for their PlayStations! Kudos to Addy and parents for their support as well and of course to you guys! 👍🏼❤️

From one Bill to another your my hero for our up and coming young racers . I'm happy knowing that you are being there for young racers that are interested in learning from a very good teacher❤❤

It should make your heart swell with pride just to know that she preferred you be the one to experience this with her . She absolutely thinks THE WORLD of you Bill Hoskinson ! From the day she made her dad turn around when she saw you at the parts store that day till now she absolutley admires you. I guess i have a soft spot since I have two daughters myself that very much look up to their old man as well but i salute you sir for your kindness and patience with Addy She will always remember that first pass in that car with you Awesome videos old man Keep em coming

I can foresee her driving for you guys in the future, the way she is quick at learning, enthusiastic and nonstop drive to get it done is everything someone has that goes professional with it. Awesome video

Hats off to Bill. But let us all give a big Hell yeah to Addy's parents. My Father also supported me at a young age. Maybe was the cause of it.🤷‍♂️ He's 75 now, me- 50 this yr. And we developed a bond/friendship, through these ole cars. That still exists today!!! Good job Mom and Dad!!!!!!!!

Yeah baby yeah hit this week early haha. Love all yaw. Keep it up you keep me out of everybody's hair

What’s up old man. Thanks for all you guys do to entertain us.

Been waiting along time for this one.. that little girl is gonna be a Rockstar with ladies to look up to like Allison and Tess and Ms Vicki's work ethic and the support from her mom and dad. Top it off with the boys and the old man this little girl is going to be 1 to watch

I remember the day she made her dad stop at uncle Terry's to meet you, she's been a loyal fan coming out to every race she possibly could even helping Ms. Vicky with the merch....She earned her spot on team SRC for sure!!! Would be nice to see her in the shop learning the ropes from the best family in no prep racing, well done Bill!! Congrats Addy...keep up the good work.

I got a 17 year old son and he loves drag racing and cars in general so much he will see a rare car ask dad you know what that is I normally don’t then he knows all the specs on them it’s unreal how much he has learned himself about cars and what power trains they have. I want to buy him a race car someday when I can afford to so I can give him something I love and he loves to do.

Awesome job old man and addy mom and dad to she was smiling from ear to ear she will never forget that moment

Bill, kudos for extending yourself to help Addy and family.. I was a gear head through and through as a youngster, and my dad couldn’t have given two shits… great to see this story unfold. Scotty from Lancaster.

How awesome for Addy! She’s been waiting a long time for this day to come and it wouldnt be one she’ll forget.Thanks old man for taking her under your wing and giving her one of the greatest memories she’ll ever have

Love it. Uncle Bob is looking healthy 👍

Glad to see the video pop up in my feed. Something about your videos relaxes me. Even though I’m sure editing is stressful. Thanks everything you do!!!!!

Absolutely love her enthusiasm and drive. She’s got a good teacher bill. We need more kids involved in our sport. We have to keep promoting.

Heck yes, we’ve all waited so long to see Addy make her first passes in her car! She did fantastic! Bill you all have surrounded her with so much love, positivity, encouragement, knowledge and so much more! She’s soaking it all up and is so very grateful! Everything you, your family and the friends around you are what the sport is all about! Cheers to you all for keeping this side of the sport thriving!

Yes was hoping for an update video tonight!!!! Thanks Bill you never disappoint!!!!☺️

That was GREAT!!!! Love what y’all are doing who knew a drag racing video could actually be heartwarming this is solid gold!😊😊😊

To see that young girl make her first pass and have so much enthusiasm almost put a tear in a grown man cry. I'd be hella proud if she was my daughter !

The seasons in full swing!

That was an awesome video! Addie did a amazing job that brought back some memories My older brother took me in my car down to Norwalk high School Nationals and that's a day I never forget

Right when I think your content can't get any better it does.Tanner has really become an asset to the family.

Bill this is so awesome you’re taking Addie under your wing and teaching her the ropes, Her excitement for it is just the best icing on the cake!

Awesome..been wondering when Addy would get to run her malibu

Man the little girl will NEVER forget that moment and that smile on her face was priceless sure wish they had this when I grew up would have saved me some coins and also many points absolutely 💯 % GREAT VIDEO

It is so refreshing to see somebody take the time and effort to put into a young kid that really wants to go drag racing. Big shout out to her parents for raising such a good young girl. Addy, you've got this. Now go kick some butt.

Shes definitely hooked now. Its really good to see kids passionate about racing these days. Kudos to you guys for helpin her out. Congrats on your first pass Addy!

I hope she gets involved with gen 2 garbage. I feel the 3 of them could make a hell of a “little rascals” team and put the beat down with billy the kid.

To Bill H and Addys parents, this people is an example of GREAT PARENTAL guidance that most kids don’t have. I love the bond that Addy has with you and her parents. I love it. I’m 65 and have 2 kids that I’m proud of like Addie. Looking forward to more content. Addie you are a inspiration for others to follow keep up the great job your doing

That young lady has a career ahead of her. She wants to learn and that's all anyone can ask for.. As a old man myself I say, the more she likes racing the less time she has to think about boys. So lets keep her busy with racing.

Oh, it's really funny. The grumpy old man is tamed by a little 15/16-year-old girl named Addy. God bless you, Mister Bill. Pretty awesome guy in my book.

Just so awesome that you can help a young person get into Drag racing as I see so many guys come in that can't even check their oil ! My hat's off to you Bill

It’s really cool that you help others trying to get into drag racing, and others in your community too. Keep up the great work guys, absolutely killing it.

This was awesome! My eyes are tearing up watching the excitement on her face. My daughter loves cars but wasn't so interested in getting dirty in the shop so I never got to experience this with my kid but now that she's a mother of 2 and with 3 grandkids there still may be a chance. Have to go find my old 80 Malibu😍

what a week you had that brought smiles for miles. Thank you for sharing the best family and friends anyone can ask for. You truly have been blessed with a beautiful gift

This is going to be fun watching Addy because she has the passion for racing.

Jr. Street, now that's a cool class! Great job Addy

Ever sense she found you at the auto parts when she saw your car parked out back we have been waiting for THIS DAY. It is so good of you Bill the take this young one under your wing and get her started right. She did great and her future is bright!

Thank you Bill, those are memories Addy will remember forever! stay safe. 👊✌️❤️🤙🏼🫡

Bill i was teary eyed when you were talking to Addy about who was gonna ride with her!! You are an inspiration for her and i am sure then best teacher she could have!!

She's got an awesome future ahead of her and probably a very very fun summer! Kudos to you all AND her parents for everything so far!

Bill is the ultimate trainer. Addy is so awesome, great job kid!

Made me smile the whole time, Thank you so very much for sharing.

I have waited for this video every since she got the car. Her enthusiasm and attitude is great and she seems to be soaking up knowledge like a sponge. It's great that you have taken the time to help her and her family get her started. It was awesome to see her finally get to make a pass. She will do great.

Bill your a great teacher !Thank you for sharing your talents with others !

Thanks Bill for bringing us along with Addy!!! It was one amazing Video!!!

Plain and simple, Miss Addie's drive and enthusiasm towards drag racing puts a smile on my face. The Junior street program is the best idea NHRA has had in some time.

That kid is something else. Her faces she made and her enthusiasm is contagious.
