Introduction and Project Background

all right so what you're about to see here is an old video from September of 2018 and it's not my video I didn't make this my friend Austin did he made it he filmed it he edited it it's on his channel too but he's been nice enough to let me throw it up on mine so you guys can see it and this one's particularly cool because it's from the day the Escalade sat on the ground and backed out of the shop for the first time under its own power with this new turbo setup which is a pretty monumental moment for any kind of big build like that especially because it took me like three years to do it so I just wanted to throw in that little kind of prologue if you will to this video because there's cutscenes of Austin talking you know check his channel out is it cool dude we've been like bro since we were literally babies let me do this and I really appreciate it because I think this video is awesome and pretty funny too it reminds me of a simpler time back when I was in Pennsylvania all the time and not the Midwest so get to see my home shop what everything looked like back then and uh you know like one of the dudes they first got fired up to check it out I can tell [Music] I put away on so we're gonna stop right there because I didn't do the best job narrating that this video and the reason why it was kind of like a last minute video I go out there like five o'clock that night Mitchell and Griffin had been there like all day but I came to help out because drag-week was coming in that I think it was four days away so like they were really trying to rush to get everything done so they could make it this year he didn't make it last year but this will be the first like idling start and first drive so I was like I'm on a video it I hope you enjoy it I still think it was funny you can still get the gist of what was going on and this will be the best video really showing the completed process of this car so we'll jump right back in 7/16
