Today marks my second anniversary on YouTube. I give a lot of credit to those who’ve been doing it weekly for many years, because it’s a meat grinder. I’ll be taking my first week off with no video on 9/3, though I might have a live QnA. Thanks, everyone, for the support!

A 582 for 582k subs! The 582ci displacement can be achieved a couple ways, but I prefer the big-bore, short-stroke version at 4.600x4.375. I have a Chevy version that made 1,000 hp NA on Engine Masters, and it has been revised with lower compression to make 970 hp NA and 1200 on a small nitrous shot with a single four barrel. It’s for sale. If you’re interested, email me: heyfreiburger@gmail.com

Wanna buy a slightly used slice of Roadkill history? Hot Rod is selling the ‘15 Challenger Hellcat from the infamous Dodge episode, and we also used it on One Lap of America. After some repairs from our tenure, it’s been in use at their Detroit office ever since. The BAT auction ends on Aug 8 during Roadkill Nights. Finnegan and I will see you there!

Hey, folks! @ViceGripGarage and I are hosting the Duct Tape Drags at Firebird Motorsports Park near Phoenix on October 16-17! We’ll have the low-buck drags, VGG burnout pit, evening parties, and more. We are also planning a road trip to the event. I still need to update the official site, but tickets and race or burnout entries are available at tickets.thefoat.com/DuctTapeDrags/Freiburger%27s+2…
