Rocky Mountain Race Week Day 4: LSXcalade Going For The 9 Second Average! (OKC to Great Bend KS)

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

Begin by preparing the primary vehicle, a modified Cadillac Escalade (LSXCALADE), for the day's long drive. This involves using a Stanley Fatmax J5C09 Jump Starter with a built-in air compressor to adjust the tire pressure from racing settings to a higher pressure suitable for street driving. Concurrently, a friend prepares a classic Nova drag car, also ensuring it's ready for the drive to the next track. The Escalade is then topped off with ethanol (E85) fuel at a Phillips 66 gas station.

Goal: Ensure vehicles are road-ready for the day's travel and have adequate fuel.

Tools and materials

  • Cadillac Escalade — Primary drag vehicle and tow vehicle
  • Drag Racing Nova Chevrolet — Friend's drag vehicle
  • Ethanol Fuel — Fueling the Cadillac Escalade
