    glad I watched it earlier - wonder why it came down, I guess YouTube is adding "makes people sad" to reasons that they take videos down....

      • that's what I'm guessing.

        But if it's a preview of the Roadkill episode...they had some great video of me racing next to him, running my best time ever, at the end. Overhead video as well as trackside. Can't wait to see the RK episode! And I hope they figure out how to put this one back on FG also.

              • looks like he cut it off after the first run, so wouldn't spoil the upcoming RK episode.

                    I wonder if we'll see that pass from the overhead shot again, it was a great to see.

                      I've met Finnegan and like him.

                      But part of me is more then a little uncomfortable that one of their stars is winning events sponsored by his boss. IF the take down was because MTOD thought their thunder stolen, does that change the tenor of Drag Week. The idea that it's no sponsors, only for glory now means that every part one by a MTOD staff cannot be shown without MTOD permission....

                      I'm guessing no one cares, but I'm going to start a thread asking the question....

                          Kinda like the head tech or any tech person checking cars for a derby AND driving in the event.. Who checks their cars?
