As a drag-and-drive competitor since she was just 16 – the youngest in HOT ROD Drag Week at the time – Alex Taylor has had her fair share of success , but her performance at Sick Week 2023 was a game changer . A string of 6-second passes in her twin-turbo ’ 55 Chevy gave Taylor the Unlimited Iron event victory , validating her and her father Dennis ’ efforts to become serious 6-second players . In this interview , Taylor discusses her Sick Week experience , her family-based team , and her burgeoning career as an on-air personality .
