All right, guys. Good morning, and welcome to the Drag Drive Repeat News presented by Summit Racing. Y'all, today's show is packed. Get ready, we've got Redwood Rally Standings, we've got 666 kicking off. We've got a week until Race Week and Weekend Warrior Racing Relax. We've got Sick Week 2027 tracks and the order they're gonna be doing, plus some rule changes, and we're dropping a new shirt design. But we're not telling you what it is until we get into the show. Mr. Eric White, please hit the intro, let's do this thing.

Mike Narks (1:43)

All right, guys, like I said, welcome to the Drag Drive Repeat News presented by Summit Racing. My name is Mike Narks, I'm the host this morning and the host on the show on Wednesday night. And Mr. Eric, we're going to get to work on this Wednesday night episode. I have not set up a guest, so who out there wants to hear from who in the Drag and Drive community? We want to know, we want to see if we can get them on this Wednesday night.

Tell me what you got going on, dude.

Eric White (2:08)

Eric White, co-host of the show and news. And I sent you a message, I don't know if it was last night or the night before, but I went through my light room for editing photos and I had 40,000 photos sitting in light room. Yeah, so finally got that cleaned up, got the hard drive cleaned up and we're day zero of Hot Rod Drag Week is posted on Facebook and on PixiSet and we're going to be moving on to day one here. So we're keeping rolling on those photos.

Dude, that's awesome. Good morning to everybody out there. Jeff Sixth, the Canadian Chuck Norris, Mr. Rich Guido himself and Tom Wilhelm in here this morning. Guys, look, we can't do this without you guys. That's why we call you our race car friends. It's pretty awesome to go to an event and just, man, we're kind of in this situation now where we're seeing these people. We're kind of getting to live this drag and drop lifestyle where we've been at Drag Week for like the last four or five years.

You see these people that you only see at Drag Week. So guys, thank you so much. Thank you for doing what you do. Thank you for being you. We appreciate you guys so much. And if you're doing some shopping, y'all, let's hit these sponsors up. If you need advice or you have questions, hit us up. We'll get you in contact with these folks, with who we talk to. And hopefully they can help you do that. But of course, Summit Racing, our title sponsor here at the news and the show on Wednesdays and the Dragon Drive Awards, which comes up at PRI 2026, which I'm excited about. That's like two and a half months from now. We've got, of course, Detrox, the official fuel delivery of Drag Drive Repeat and the title sponsor for the short circuit, which happens in like five weeks or something like that. Eric's going to go over the dates. And Molly Motorsports, of course. Dude, I feel so bad I didn't get to hang out with George as much as I wanted to on drag week. Kind of sad. Driven Racing Oil, of course, Mike Neal, Bill Alexander, the team. They're driven, are just freaking awesome, man. Kirk and everybody there. It's awesome. I made the switch to Driven in the old truck.

I think I got better gas mileage. I don't know. I'm just assuming that's what the change is. Maybe I kept my foot out of it. I don't know. But of course, Howard's Cams would be in the team over there taking care of all of our valve train stuff. JR Solutions are wiring and plumbing guru.

I talked to him the other day when I put this truck over on the new frame. What are some tips and tricks for plumbing of the radiator? How can I make that look better?

He was giving me some tips and tricks on like metal tubing compared to just regular hoses, things like that. Afco Racing Products, of course, not just suspension. They do cooling, brakes and all that kind of stuff. Performable Transmissions, best GM transmission builder on the planet. Guys, they put a 4L60 in the 7s. They keep highway prices, 5,100 pound race weight, wagon alive. Car Change 3D, of course. We were just talking about this before the show. I've got some ideas for Cory for a setup for my old truck and I do make the switch and kind of do some different dash stuff. Of course, Low Dollar Motorsports, which we're going to talk about here in just a second, they were on with Summit for the On All Cylinders Podcast. Of course, PowerTube TV and Racing Junk Classifieds, but enough of my jibber-jabber there. Let's let Mr. Brian Loans, the voice, sweet buttery voice of Brian Loans, tell us about Summit Racing.
