Tom Bailey captures his 6th HOT ROD Drag Week Unlimited/Overall title with Sick Seconds 1.0 Camaro.
history, Tom Bailey has been crowned with America's Fastest Street Car title by capturing the Overall win, in addition to winning the Unlimited category. His impressive accomplishments put him at the top of the list for the most Overall wins, a title he shared with Larry Larson for a year.
Bailey completed the week by posting a 6.7149 average over the five-day, nearly 1,000-mile road trip, visiting tracks in South Carolina, North Carolina, and Tennessee.The pathway to the HOT ROD Drag Week victory was one filled with plenty of bumps in the roadway, figuratively and literally.

The team hit the road to Darlington Dragway a few hours later than planned, but rolled in Sunday morning with plenty of time to make tech.The opening day of competition turned out to be a race against the track surface. Bailey aborted a few runs before getting it together late in the day. The twin-turbocharged Camaro blasted off to a 6.75 at 203 mph, allowing Bailey and Steve Morris to hit the road north to Rockingham Dragway.
The third day brought the traveling drag racing circuit to Thunder Valley Dragway in Tennessee. The facility is one of the nicest tracks on the NHRA pro tour, but Bailey couldn't unleash everything he has under the hood because of a broken wheelie-bar. It wasn't critical, but they couldn't get after it as hard as the car is capable of running. The team collected a piece of paper that reads 6.77 at 200 mph and hit the road.
Carolina Dragway, known by the locals as House of Hook, lived up to its name for many of the racers, allowing them to run their quickest runs of the week. Bailey decided to make one run and move down the road back to Darlington Dragway; his strategy was to minimize wear-and-tear on the parts, and simply stay ahead of the competition, namely Bryant Goldstone who was ranked second in the Overall rankings.
