In this episode of Faster With Finnegan, titled "No-Prep Dirt Drag Racing!", host Mike Finnegan and his team head to a dirt track in Missouri to take on the challenge of no-prep drag racing. This type of racing is unique because the track surface has not been treated or prepped with traction compounds, making it much more difficult to get a good grip and accelerate quickly.
To give themselves the best chance of success, Finnegan and his team brought along their heavily modified 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air, which they have nicknamed "Blasphemi." This car has a 535 horsepower Hemi engine and a host of custom upgrades to help it perform on the dirt track.
The episode starts with Finnegan and his team arriving at the track and setting up their pit area. They also take the time to check out some of the other cars and drivers who will be competing, including a heavily modified Ford Mustang and a souped-up Dodge Charger.
Once the cars are lined up on the starting line, it quickly becomes clear that the lack of traction on the dirt track is causing problems for all of the drivers. Many of the cars spin their tires and struggle to get going, and some even end up skidding off course and crashing into the barriers.
Despite these challenges, Finnegan manages to make it through the early rounds of competition with some impressive performances. He also takes the time to talk to some of the other drivers between races, discussing the technical aspects of their cars and sharing tips for getting the most out of the no-prep track.
As the competition heats up, Finnegan finds himself facing off against the Mustang driver in the final round. It's a close race, but Finnegan's superior driving skills and the power of his Bel Air's Hemi engine help him to edge out the competition and take home the top prize.
Overall, "No-Prep Dirt Drag Racing!" showcases the intense challenges and excitement of this unique type of racing. Finnegan's expertise and passion for the sport shine through as he and his team take on the competition and come out on top.
