“With the space we have now (at Moore Race Chassis), advancing the business is the top of our priority list. The opportunity is too great to pass up.”

“My oldest son Michael McMahon III wanted to do a drag-and-drive. And I have too. And he loves baseball, so what better one to do than Sick Summer that goes past the Field of Dreams!”

“The drag-and-drive community is amazing. I love just being out in the truck with friends, and not worrying about anything but making it to the next track. To me it’s just a great way to get away from the day to day grind.”

The moment that changed everything for Garrett Mitchell came when he recorded a goofy video with Tom Bailey’s ‘Sick Seconds 1.0’ on Rocky Mountain Race Week in July 2015.

“Just a reminder, if you’re building a combo and it isn’t an exact mirror of a known good one, get ready to work a lot.”

At Sick Summer Presented by TBM Brakes in 2023, Eddie Ensor lowered not only the naturally aspirated average to a staggering 7.53, but also the single run record to a 7.46 at 184.61 mph. Could he improve on those numbers in 2024?

68 cars and trucks signed up, and a chance of rain hung overhead on sign up day, but the weather would look reasonably sunny. But as participants left to head to the next destination, reports of a tornado were getting passed around. Thankfully, no participants had issues and made the trek safely.

“The people, the drives, and the adventure to take a car you built and try to survive a week with the best people and friends - there's nothing better.”

“The people are awesome, and end up becoming like family. There's room for all kinds of vehicles, and there's no better test of man and machine.”

“Cars are built to be driven. Trailering them to a drag strip isn’t fun.”

“Seeing the country and different racing venues, hanging out with everyone I have met over the years and new people at the various events, sharing stories in the staging lanes.”

I’m ready to be spending more time enjoying the car; the challenge of a drag-and-drive, and hanging out with like minded folks.

Sick the Mag previously reported on the possibility that Pueblo Motorsports Park would likely delay the start of its 2024 drag racing season, due to areas of the track’s surface needing repairs. However, it seems some possible good news has arrived sooner than expected, and the 2024 drag racing season could still happen.

“I could feel in the car on that run, it was a drastic change. It was one of the best feelings of my life.”

“I think it showed the maximum of what we can accomplish on this turbo. There might be a little left, but we hung it out pretty good.”

“Drag-and-drives combines the best of both worlds. It also is a very like family-oriented event; everyone helps one another even though they may be competing against another it gives it a ‘small track’ kind of feel to it.”

“I can’t think of a better way to do a trial run of the route for this fall’s Edelbrock Sick 66 event. We will definitely be having an adventure driving back to Missouri.”

In January this year, Mike Finnegan released a video on his YouTube channel, Finnegan’s Garage, on the build of a LS-based 400 cubic inch engine from ACE Racing Engines for big power numbers and a ‘mystery project car.’

Pueblo Motorsports Park, which has seen use for multiple big events, including Rocky Mountain Race Week, put out a statement earlier this afternoon regarding the state of the drag racing schedule for 2024.

“It’s funny to think about this car starting at Pump Gas Drags with twin superchargers and an FE big block. Now it’s all-motor time.”
