The Fight for Five-Seconds at Sick Week 2025
A five-second stage has been set for Sick Week 2025 Presented By Gear Vendors Overdrive, with a brutal assortment of street legal machines preparing for what may be the quickest and fastest drag-and-drive event in history.
Ever since Tom Bailey’s historic 5.99 run at Hot Rod Drag Week in 2019, drag-and-drive fans have been waiting for a repeat of the feat. It seemed for a period that interest in the Unlimited class and its road-going Pro Mods had waned, but an explosion of new rides has put high expectations on Sick Week 2025 Presented By Gear Vendors Overdrive (January 27 - February 1).
The combination of excellent VP Racing track preparation and sea-level weather conditions will provide the ideal environment for quick times at the event voted as USA Today's Best Motorsports Race for 2024 and Drag Illustrated's Event of the Year in 2023.

FEATURE: The Boosted Bandit
Tribute cars aren’t uncommon in the street machine world, but often the emphasis is placed on authenticity rather than personality, lest they be judged by the dozens of other owners of identical vehicles.
Thankfully, that’s not the case for Nick Wiegand and his Smokey and the Bandit-inspired ’76 Pontiac Trans Am. We’re sure Burt Reynolds himself would have been impressed with the combination of subtle black-and-gold nods and horsepower that Nick has blended into his own screaming chicken.
