A Day of Racing at the Big Blue Mile: The Unicorns' Journey to 180

The day of the race finally arrived, and with it, the Unicorn's crew was ready to take on the challenge of breaking the 180-mile-per-hour barrier. As they prepared for the event, they knew that it wouldn't be an easy feat, but they were determined to give it their all. The driver, who wished to remain anonymous, expressed his excitement and nerves about the upcoming attempt. "I'm really up for this," he said. "I've been working hard to get my car in top shape, and I feel confident that we can break 180."

As they took to the track, the Unicorn's crew was aware of the stiff competition they would face from other drivers. The current leader, who was competing with a Trans Am, was looking strong and had already broken the 185-mile-per-hour mark earlier in the day. However, the Unicorn's driver remained undeterred, focusing on his own goal of breaking 180. "I'd love to see that I had 180," he said. "It would be a great feeling knowing we were spinning through every year."

Despite the challenges they faced, including wind gusts and headwinds that made it difficult to maintain speed, the Unicorn's crew remained optimistic. They knew that the key to breaking 180 lay in finding the perfect balance of speed and control, and they were determined to get it right. As they took their final run, the driver expressed his desire to see a repeat performance from another driver, Chad, who had spent hours preparing for the event.

The first pass was a success, with the Unicorn's car reaching speeds of over 180 miles per hour. However, during the second pass, the brake booster failed, causing the car to slow down and lose speed. The driver expressed his disappointment at this setback but remained determined to push on and achieve his goal. "It was a lot of fun," he said. "Don't regret it at all."

As the day went on, other drivers began to take their turns on the track, including Chad, who came close to breaking 180. However, he ultimately fell short of his goal. Meanwhile, another driver experienced issues with low oil pressure and was forced to make an early exit from the competition.

Despite not achieving the numbers they had hoped for, the Unicorn's crew was thrilled with their performance and expressed gratitude towards the Big Blue Mile organization for its support throughout the event. "It's a great day," said one of the crew members. "We're just glad everyone is safe and sound."

As the sun began to set on the Nebraska track, the Unicorn's crew reflected on the events of the day. They knew that they had made significant progress in their quest to break 180 and were already looking forward to their next attempt. "I'd say it was a fun day," said the driver. "Not the numbers we wanted exactly but hey, unicorns all safe and sound on the trailer."

The crew's dedication and passion for the sport shone through as they took down their car from the track, ready to begin the process of fine-tuning and preparing for future events. As they worked, the driver expressed his excitement about the prospect of returning to the Big Blue Mile in two weeks' time.

The day may not have been a success from a speed perspective, but it was undoubtedly a memorable one for the Unicorn's crew. With their sights set on breaking 180 and taking home that elusive first-place trophy, they were already looking forward to the next challenge ahead.

**Weather Conditions**

As the crew reflected on the events of the day, they couldn't help but mention the weather conditions that had played a significant role in shaping the competition. The temperature had reached a comfortable 74 degrees Fahrenheit, with gusts reaching speeds of 15-20 miles per hour. This headwind proved to be a challenge for many drivers, including the Unicorn's crew.

**Chad's Help**

The day couldn't have been possible without the help of Chad, who had spent hours preparing his car and lending a hand to the Unicorn's crew during their run. The driver expressed his gratitude towards Chad, saying that he was "all over the place" but still managed to deliver an impressive performance.

**Oil Pressure Issues**

Another driver experienced issues with low oil pressure during their attempt, which ultimately forced them to make an early exit from the competition. This setback served as a reminder of the importance of maintaining proper engine care and attention to detail in high-performance driving.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat's up it's time for another unicorn vlog and this one's starting off a lot different than all the other ones cuz it's 11:50 at night Friday night just got back home from Stinson's wedding but the last three hours I've been trying to figure out where the fluid is coming from in the unicorn so I put the new drag radials on back here went out and did a little pull up to the speed limit you know how that goes came back to load up the trailer at 10 o'clock 9:30 so I wouldn't piss out the neighbors and this is the last thing that you want to see when you're loading up your car and there was a trail coming up here and I thought it was oil as you can see it's dried up so that's a good sign because oil would be a lot more difficult as I was troubleshooting it I just wanted to squirt out more and more and more and more more and it was oily fluid I think that's because it was Dripping through some oil on the engine or wherever it's actually coolant and I tracked down and did my little MacGyver patch here so I can get it to the shop because I don't have any hose to replace but this hose somehow found itself down on to the pulley there and rubbed through to make a hole so good news is I found the problem the other good news is I think it's not gonna be too hard to fix just got it replace that coolant help hose and then we'll be good to go and the reason that I'm getting the unicorn ready is because I'm going to the big blue mile tomorrow morning I'm really leaving here in about four hours going over to the shop and Lincoln on the way because it's pretty close to where the race is that and there's a severe thunderstorm about to hit two everything is just coming together perfectly but okay it's time to get this car in the trailer and then button up the house so we don't get oh my god here's a mess anyway storms coming in I'm trying to load the car by myself for the first time in a thunderstorm hopefully it stays dry it's too early fish and that's supposed to be up before the birds you fix it or we might be able to cut that hose off I was singing on the way here it might be able to shorten it though do you have any hose like up good to go now we're headed to Seward for the half mile go get tech down and get some breakfast pulling into town here and I'm realizing we're actually on the racetrack right now the bleachers are right there this is the house I've seen all the videos I believe this is the half mile marker right here so this highway is gonna be closed down here shortly press Therese off welcome to Cordova Nebraska boy well welcome to Cordova Nebraska City I've never been to and to say that probably triples in population today for the big blue Mile this is a very unique half-mile maybe there's some other ones out there but they close down the main highway that comes into the city for a mile-long race or a half mile which as I'm doing today we're gonna see speeds over 200 miles an hour I'm not I'm hoping for maybe like 180 something it's my first time going past the quarter a full throttle in this car so it's be really interesting we go get checked in here grab some breakfast and then they're going to do a parade out to the racetrack just have some fun today got the line up all these cars are getting lined up here ready to go there's a 4gt good oh yeah I'll get with tech now I gotta put her number on I turned around and all the sudden I got new stickers on my car dang look at that number what are the chances all right anxiety is kicking in I'm a little nervous really excited to see how this thing doesn't a half mile I'm gonna look around here and see what else showed up I saw a Ford GT already there's some some cool cars out here some unique stuff a lot of Corvettes oh we got a new zr1 whoa these your bets on what that's gonna do mustang mustang old-school viper oh my gosh I wanna grab that maybe I can trade them both make few passes for GT this supercharged no just rated oh is it okay got the big big intake on top zero one and it can be miss my car this will probably be the fastest car here just based on looking at it we're heading on down to the racetrack which is actually the highway here we go just started running we're down welfare check here well first has passed the car was breaking up for some reason so i short-shifted it and when i went into the next year was breaking up again so shift it again and something wasn't quite right I looked down as like a hundred and forty something so definitely not a good pass but it's a look at the logs and see see what it might be all right half mile and mile have run as a lot of cars we're going to head back to the starting line to do it all over again alright run number two now that I know that the motor cutting out is actually the traction control for the MS 3 Pro that'll help me know that I can stay in it it's just limiting the power it's putting down to the ground even though it's concrete here the tires are cold so I'm going to see what happens if we use the launch control and spin the tires in the first gear slowly shift in a second then the tires are hot then I should be able to lay the power down let's see if it works out well a little bit better seem like hooked up a little better but it was still spinning it might need to lower the tire pressures and then I can't get enough in here for some reason just won't let me go in the gear so that's just that's that's hard to do it 150 you sit there trying to get in the gear the hardest part about this is when you come down here and you park your car it's kind of like drag racing you know you're gonna be about another hour before you make other pass and you're just sitting here like I just want to try it again but at least it's a beautiful day it's like 75 degrees sunny can't complain hanging out and hanging out in cornfields it's been really bad and bited a purpose for skiers any better our third Nick quit when you got into third it quit spinning I mean I spent a little bit but nothing was doing any traction control it was sketchy as I'd went up a mile on it yeah one 70.8 Chad's in third place blew me all over dude Packard asked my hand was still shaped like I said switch planes when I let off the gas I went yeah it was yeah in Jesus whoo I got it in fifth gear I shouldn't be so excited just to be able to get it in here let's see if they've updated it half mile after mile come on not a bit quiet yet stay tuned check out singing did you get me you did 179 points no it's got a 118 it for sure it like the back fire to the top of it there's something I heard 179 so off to get those website pulled up and South that's what he said once every tell yeah I just want to know one eighty kind of up for the fourth run I just want to hit 180 I'll be really happy I'm right there half mile an hour off chance made some changes I'm gonna try no left shift hopefully we can break that 180 mark the cherry on the top would be doing 186 because I think the leader right now is 185 with the Trans Am unfortunately he broke and issue with one of his break so he won't be making another pass which is good for me bad for him I know what number I need to hit I think dad's kind of maxed out with traction Chad could come around me though he's been spending really bad he's over there clicking the keyboard on his car too so who knows what could happen I'd love to see him breaking 180 as well run number four like but that was a fun pass I hope I had 180 because that was my goal I would love to see that I was spinning through every year it was messy but it was that was that was the most fun pass of the day so I actually got to be upset about that I was in second place hopefully I'm at least still there I know I didn't hit 186 and I'm having troubles braking so we're gonna we're just gonna go ahead and let her chill out so for the record 74 degrees and 15 to 20 mile an hour gusts so the weather's great but we're getting wind gust headwinds like crazy all right it's the last pass was miss you tell I lost my brake booster hat brakes but we weren't slowing down during this hit boost cut rev limiter I was all over the place and it was a lot of fun don't regret it at all but now I really want that 185 so I'm gonna try and be a little easier out of the hole but still get the tires hot and see if I get that 180 that I want I really want that 180 and like once again the bonus would be the bonus would be taking first place but 186 is a lot I made up 25 mile an hour between my second third Pasadena's fifth and probably final pass she's done little oil pressure I don't like the sound of that still Sam low oil pressure that's not good the oil pressure light doesn't want to shut off I can see what it okay go ahead and start it fine on there all right that's good you know if it said not to and then it's so it's not working at all you read that it didn't change yeah but he goes I'm like five they going up on there it's warming up over here that's right back in line that's bring the truck and trailer here load it up and then that way I can cut the filter apart we can look and verify because I don't want to take cheese no not when the cars are on so good or anyway yeah yeah so I'd rather be safe than sorry whoo well I would say it was a fun day not the numbers we wanted exactly but hey unicorns all safe and sound on the trailer we're pretty sure what happened is it just puke so much oil out overflows over the last couple weeks and doing a bunch a half mile passes that oil pressure is low before Emma so all in all is a good day didn't hit my 180 but with a 15 a 27 mile an hour headwind see that's pretty good for a first time in a half mile maybe doing it again in two weeks and call around one I can't wait for that I've got to say big thank you the big blue Mile class-act race organization all volunteers like they have like 15 people in starting line
