We know Jessie Harris isn’t afraid to exercise his 6.7-liter Cummins diesel-powered 1975 Chevrolet 1/2-ton pick-up on the street and the track during numerous drag-and-drive events. But what does it make for power?

Hoping the 5.3-liter LS-based combination had one more solid run in it, Rich Woodward spooled up the twin-turbo Mustang and rocketed off the starting line. But by the time he reached the finish line, things had changed; a lot!

“I would like to run at least one 6-second pass at Hot Rod Drag Week, and finish in the top three in my class.”

The drag-and-drive that started it all, Hot Rod Drag Week, hits the twenty-year mark in 2024, and as the additional attention swarmed around the event, it was widely assumed that registration would sell out in a matter of minutes.

With as much as Sick the Magazine has grown since we launched in 2021, we are looking to expand our coverage even more in 2024! What can you do to help? Tell us your story!

In 2023, Sick the Magazine covered the drag-and-drive landscape from both the events and results side. But we’re only one voice, so we created the “Sickest of the Sick” awards to let you be heard too!

One of the tracks that may have started the rumor mill on the 2024 edition of Hot Rod Drag Week is US 131 Motorsports Park, one of the tracks on the very first Hot Rod Drag Week in 2005.
