“It’s the dumbest thing you could ever do in a car,” Tony Niemczyk admitted about drag-and-drive events. “But I love it!”

“When I saw him go the 7.06, I packed the trailer up and left to beat him to it (first to run a 6-second pass).”

Jeremy got ‘FlatFox’ together in time for Hot Rod Drag Week, where he completed his first drag-and-drive event with a 9.28 average and a top ten finish in the Super Street Small Block Power Adder class.

Since last year’s Sick Week, Kevin and Will are making updates to the Camaro, including a new wiring harness, removing the intercooler, and changes to the fuel system.

“After driving the Impala for a week plus, it’s so much more fun than an automatic, so I decided to take it.”

Narrated by legendary drag-and-drive announcer Brian Lohnes, this is Sick Week 2022!

From a 10,000hp nitro dragster to a beat-up Dodge truck, some might call Clay Millican’s choice of vehicle for Sick Week a step down — but that couldn’t be any further from the truth.

“At drag-and-drive events, you’re not just saying you have a fast street car. You’re proving it!”

The replica ’69 Camaro was brought to life at RJ Race Cars, and the stretched front end houses a Pro Line Racing HEMI powerplant with a pair of Garrett GT57 turbochargers.

“I look to finish, hopefully on the podium. But the Super Street class will be a shark tank, so we'll see how it shakes out!”

The World Power Wheel Standing Championships not only rewards the longest wheel stand, but also awards payouts for the highest wheelie, the most photogenic wheelie, the most violent wheelie, and more.  

“The closest we have come to a drag-and-drive event was last year in Sick Ward. It was a great, fun experience and can’t wait to be on the other side of it!”

“I hope to make clean runs, break into the 11-second zone, and make the trip.”

“We look forward to meeting some amazing new people, and reconnect with friends we’ve made along the way.”

Despite its racy appearance, Steve Groenink states his first priority with the car is making sure it can be driven reliably. “If I can’t cruise the car regularly, then I don’t want it.”

“I hope to make a 4-second eighth-mile pass in Rowdy Radial,” said Rick of his Sick Week goals. “But I just like doing street car stuff with my friends.”

“I feel I may have been practicing for this type of event since I first started tinkering with cars. It presents a challenge and a sense of self reliance while also providing opportunity to help others and meet new people.”

Only one Pontiac has auctioned for more than one million dollars, a 1954 Bonneville Special Concept, and the highest GTO purchase price on record was a 1969 GTO Judge garnering a $682,000 purchase price.

“That day is when I realized it should be fun and not work, so at the check points it’s time to hang out, not just snap a picture and leave.”
