Traded Drag Cars with Cleetus McFarland - It went Terribly AWESOME!

The Art of Drag Racing with Friends

As we gathered at the track to put our cars through their paces, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and camaraderie among my fellow racers. The cooler weather seemed to be just what we needed to get out on the track and push our machines to their limits. And with the old paper clip trick in hand, we were ready to take on whatever the day had in store for us.

Our first car up was the one that would become the star of the show - a sleek dragster with an engine that seemed to roar to life as soon as we climbed behind the wheel. As we prepared for our run, I noticed my friend taking the lower half of the science approach, carefully calibrating his car's boost and throttle settings to coax out the maximum performance from his machine. Meanwhile, I opted for a more straightforward approach, relying on my experience with drag racing to guide me.

As we took off down the track, our engines roaring in unison, it was clear that this was going to be a day to remember. My friend's car shot forward like a bullet, leaving us all in its wake as he effortlessly navigated the turns and straightaways. I watched with a mixture of awe and envy as he laid down a blistering 60-foot time of 1.44 seconds, followed by a 688 mph top speed that left me feeling inadequate by comparison.

But I was determined not to be outdone. With a fierce determination in my heart, I focused on fine-tuning my car's settings, making adjustments and tweaks until we were ready for our final run. And then it happened - as we launched down the track, my engine suddenly came under boost, sending us careening off course and into a brief but intense slip. But with quick reflexes and a steady hand, I managed to wrestle the car back onto the track, shifting quickly through the gears as we hurtled towards our final speed.

And what a finish it was - 69 mph in the 60-foot time, followed by an impressive 1081 mph top speed that left us all gasping in amazement. It was a true testament to my friend's hard work and dedication, but also to my own skills behind the wheel. As we took our final lap of the day, the sun beginning to set over the horizon, it was clear that this had been an evening to remember.

The real challenge came when we decided to add some nitrous oxide to our mix - a bold move that would take our cars from 0-60 mph in under three seconds and send them soaring into the stratosphere. But as we waited patiently at the starting line, I couldn't help but feel a twinge of nervousness about what lay ahead.

And then it happened - my friend's car shot forward like a bullet, leaving us all in its wake as he effortlessly navigated the turns and straightaways. The nitrous oxide was proving to be a game-changer, sending his engine roaring with power and leaving him in the lead by a significant margin. But I wasn't about to let him have all the fun - with a fierce determination in my heart, I focused on fine-tuning my car's settings, making adjustments and tweaks until we were ready for our final run.

The result was nothing short of spectacular - 10 seconds off my previous personal best time, and an impressive 120 mph top speed that left us all gasping in amazement. It was a true testament to the power of friendship and camaraderie, as well as the sheer thrill of drag racing itself. And as we took our final lap of the day, the sun beginning to set over the horizon, it was clear that this had been an evening to remember.

The Future of Drag Racing

As we packed up our gear and said our goodbyes at the end of the night, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement about what lay ahead. With the addition of new equipment such as a roll cage, ethanol fuel, and 25-30 pounds of boost, my friend's car was already showing signs of life - and I knew that with these upgrades in place, we would be unstoppable.

And then there was the matter of tires - or rather, the lack thereof. As it turned out, our cars were currently fitted with relatively small wheels, which seemed to be causing a bit of a problem when it came to traction on the track. But as we discussed the finer points of tire selection and wheel size, I couldn't help but feel a sense of optimism about what lay ahead.

With the right combination of technology, skill, and determination, I was confident that we could take our cars from 0-60 mph in under three seconds and leave everyone else in the dust. And as we made plans to load up on nitrous oxide and try again soon, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement about what the future held for us.

The thrill of drag racing is unlike anything else - it's an exhilarating combination of power, speed, and adrenaline that never gets old. And as I looked around at my fellow racers, all of whom seemed to be feeling the same way, I knew that this was going to be a day to remember for years to come.

With its unique blend of skill, technology, and camaraderie, drag racing is an activity that's hard to resist - especially when you're doing it with friends. And as we walked away from the track at the end of the night, already making plans for our next adventure, I knew that this was just the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwell I gotta ride out dude hey dude what do you think this is sick we're going drag racing today it's almost smaller in person where's the rest tiny it's a tiny car yeah especially compared to this huh I wanted to run my first 10 second pass with you yeah we can't be any other way I know I feel like you needed some guidance too you know after seeing you try to beat the third member out of your nine inch with the axle still in it I appreciate that we're really hoping you'd just come here so we could you know keep an eye on you I love it when you're on the drags too I know it's not your thing but when you're at the drag strip I just I you're smiling the whole time I've come like it's I see more chill than drifting because it's like you do a pass if you see it you talk about it you look at the logs you yeah you hang out and it's so quantitative like you just get a number yep so you know if you sucked or you didn't suck like drifting there's so much left to opinion that's this is the best you just get a number what do you think about old girl I mean this thing's sweet what's the ramblinger set at 85 that's it to him yeah I was expecting like 12 000. it's bought not built so I don't really oh I put the gold things on there and I made the downpipe oh yeah come look at my fat look at my fat I'm really proud of it look I made the firewall by myself oh wow if you did that yeah that looks really good thanks I'm like really really proud of it you did that yeah it's not like two days on it on the bead roller yeah good job coming from McFarland Fab wow what is out of business you hired I didn't make that game oh you went well off with me directly oh dude I'd be down I'd be down here try to pick up the front up a little loose grab the bumper maybe ready it's pretty light I wish we had something to really grab have you waited I was like 1900 yeah I was gonna say it's probably 19. the wheelbase oh let's check it out this is what we're working with eleven four at 121. okay now since then that's actually a pretty good 60 foot yeah that was the wheelie so I let off a little bit and like I'm kind of Granny shifting like not all at all that's got it you just got step number one a chicken foot do not yeah no chicken foot and keep her four all right no taking place what is the possibility of it actually like going back impossible really it won't flip over I mean it'll get up off the ground a little bit by the time it pops up to where it was at in the video that I seen it's already coming back down all right let me bring in my specialist on wheelies George what do you think about him lifting up the word impossible that was thrown out there a little nonchalant but the back bumper could touch just a little and you'll be on your way the only guy I know that's rolled over in a wheelie really yeah dude it's sick somehow this is like the first car that I never paid attention to alignment specs he told me to zero out the toe on the front I had like an inch of toe in so that's why the steering wheel felt like crap good right this is sick oh I'm excited to see you do a wheelie first to do the wheelie I basically dumped the clutch but I'm nervous of breaking the trans that's like the weak one a little bit of slip and then if we need it I'll dump it but if you can just have a really good roll out and like you're rolling through the 60 foot versus just chasing that first you know 60 feet yeah that's where you're gonna kill it so I think you can just not wheelie and just through there it'll be dialed all right hey do you know how to calibrate uh one of these light things that light above RPM yeah is what uh it goes on at 3000 that's not where I should be shifting I don't think oh that's it right there Yep this is it this is it we're doing it this will really help me not sure shifts it oh whatever fell off on the last wheelie we didn't figure out what it was I know there are a lot of people concerned in the comments a look all the bolts are tight so it still runs and it didn't matter I think you know when something like falls in the frame rail and it just Jiggles its way out I think it might have been something like that extension from whoever built the car yeah this is the first time I ever saw nine inches and it looks like a dinosaur I'd say this is a stock steel stamp housing so like an original nine inch in the 60s that's that's the housing that they came hello from the future and part of my Interruption I wanted to mention who won the mark IV Supra that we gave away it was posted on Instagram I don't remember if I mentioned the video Drew pipel won this bad boy and he's gonna be coming down to take delivery in a few weeks but I want to let you know we just

the links in the description shop now get in for a chance to win thank you foreign get comfortable with the car again curious to see what it traps because that'll tell me about the the power difference it might be a little bit hotter out but I'm just going to really focus on I'm not doing a crazy launch but just get through the gears fast a little bit more confident now that I got these bushings so it's not flopping around like it did before it's a little bit tighter so I'm excited this is fun all the time you gotta let them know foreign let's go we got a little wheel hop there I might have left a little bit too spicy so we'll tone it down a little bit on the next one this thing's so much faster than before I don't think we're that close to running out of gearing before but that time we definitely were yeah he did go 126 mile an hour but the beauty of a track rental yeah is you can back up and retry right there on the spot so bad launch like that abort Mission back her up try again that's true we'll get him tuned in on that I got my first wheel hop yeah I saw that it felt way faster than before though you back half pretty hard 126. yeah look how hard it back has you pick up 30 mile an hour on the second half of the track I don't know what that means but six mile an hour means I'm making some Jam from the eighth of the quarter you were picking up a lot of miles yeah see your monarchy 96 their model an hour and a quarter 126 that's 30 mile an hour yeah we did 11 8 with a with a two liter or 60 foot so that's yeah yeah well you went one Five Sixty foot on your 11-4 you went 2-0 that's fine eleven eight so six mile an hour you could definitely go with that so yeah if you watch the launch just stop it back up it's a rental you can do that yeah you don't have to make the full ring I thought about that but I was doing two amp jobs it's not it's not really yeah I think you need a softer initial hit yeah that was that was like a wheelie right there right there you got it though you're good pull our cool off for a little bit not bad though to pick up that much mile an hour that shows that you did make more horsepower oh yeah small changes you made it feels way more responsive too even driving back here it's like a zippy yeah and then a throttle Stitch too it gets real zippy I'll drop her down a little bit now we could have put a proper drag Tire on this but I think it's way cooler pump gas nt01s streetcar all right let's do the thing that might have been my 10 second pass right there that felt great oh so close so close I honestly don't feel like I could have done that much better other than maybe shift a little faster this gearbox like doesn't want to shift that fast I banged the one too I felt like my shift like timing was good that had to been at least a little 11 maybe a 10. but it felt like it was like the perfect it picked up a wheel a little bit not too much my guess is one six sixty foot eleven one at 127. look at that almost there hello real good that felt real good what'd I run oh so close so close you know what's funny I guessed in the car 11-1 at 127. yeah look at how cleanly you rolled out oh that felt great yeah it looks good but the chefs were lazy you were double clutching it no we're so close so close I thought I I had a feeling I didn't want to look at the scoreboard on the way back because I was like that might be in the 10. that might be it yeah yeah the next one a little bit higher RPM not a lot all right I'm gonna need 10 I'm gonna need a grinder a bag of ice and a computer and two of the big ones nice so I asked Adam I was like did the shift light work and then he was like no I'm not paying attention to that it's kind of hard to see in the light when I looked and I was like you know what let's um let's just actually make it usable yeah I thought that was like I thought this is how it looked I wonder if it's working I'll try Revenant yeah yeah so I need to fix that things I can pass sir yep I caught you so off guard yeah I I really hope that we can go to Texas Roadhouse yeah that'd be nice if I could attend is it do we have time for that if I get a 10 second pass can we go to Texas Roadhouse we get a 10 second pass you get cinnamon butter dude only the cinnamon butter and the rolls just a plate of cinnamon butter if you guys watch the clutch kicker videos you know that every time we would like end clutching here just just so late that we couldn't go to get Texas Roadhouse that was always supposed to be my reward next to the hot tub uh dude imagine Texas Roadhouse in the hot tub foreign thank you but my hood popped on that one I feel like we could still leave better I just might need to dump the clutch I definitely cleaned up the shifting but I don't know if that 60 foot was in I might do it hey 1089 at 128. that was freaking perfect any 11 second car can go 10.99 but a 10 second card into a 1080. yeah you got that 10 89. you didn't get a printout you went 7-0 in the eighth I can tell you that really much data for you that was so you see it popped the wheels in when the one piece here oh man dude it's so close yeah we'll hopped a little bit like I need a little bit more juice yeah you only want a 1089. I win 10's 10.89 really what the heck I damn yeah this thing's got a 10 seconds 128. 128 1089 at 128. and it's only getting cooler outside you're slipped in Prince they're reprinted right now so I think like they saw in that it felt like wheel hopped a little bit like I could maybe take a little bit of pressure out that's the shift what you got to do is leave harder because now the track's cooling down so when you're taking off it's gripping and lugging the car down and starting right you didn't you didn't wheel hop you were dead hook my shifting practice helped 128 dude that's cooking didn't it I can't believe it does have a 350 wheel yeah it's powered away it's terrifying that was a thank you congratulations fun it was a good run thank you this little piece off it'll actually go it'll go faster so I want to leave it on I know that's what I want to do that's me to lose a pound of boost because like 15's like getting sketchy with that piece off it does like 16 and a half calculator sounds like the numbers we need right now when we go when we go nines tonight dude No not tonight we'll get a cage before we go nice so uh Garrett's about to take the car for a spin what could go around I can't think of a single thing I I didn't think you'd want to drive it because I thought you'd think that it's sketchy yeah I usually don't ever drive anything sketchy so this is a one-time thing for me that's a joke right yeah okay I don't know like I'd be University remember what he said over the phone he's like I can't think of a single thing I could go wrong yeah I really can't I mean this thing looks so good dude it's so good I love it I'm really really excited to hear what you think what if it breaks while I'm driving it that's why I wanted to get my 10 second pass first okay so I would I would prefer not to break it but if it happens like I got my 10 second pass that's what I came here for all right you got a trailer yeah so one of them a long time ago was me there was a there's a Starbucks in Texas and uh dude you know in Texas like the the things like off the highway almost like it's like a high-speed Road and there's a parking lot off the highway so once you start turning you can't back back out and it was too tight of a turn so I just hopped the curb I just dug out on the other side if cleat goes faster than me it means I'm gonna have to keep going through bro I don't know if I said this on camera but I purposely made sure I got my 10 second password so the brakes I don't even care I'm super good time wow literally and not literally a good time yeah get it oh oh my God brother what are you doing this is broken exploded oh my God to be the rowdiest Walk of my career oh you just didn't lock it you didn't lock it you adjusted it for me sabotage all right back um foreign holy crap wow I didn't have my helmet flipped on that second one the car I've ever driven it just feels like you're on a four second rip the seats alone see it's blown out I could tell what's your left I see me holding here and then like maybe 800 feet and just shut off my phone's to the floor and it just turned off really so I went through the trash floored but the engine was not running like maybe I wonder if the throttle popped out again no no it's good now really oh yeah it uh it has an overview sometimes when the car is warm it turns off the injectors past 120 duty cycle exactly what it felt like yep it hasn't happened to me in a while no honestly would you think I really want to drive it anymore until the seats fixed because she's like is it bad now I mean if you have her locked in you can just oh no dude yeah it's my fault it's hilarious is watching your helmet disappear my man hit something really hard you got your pass oh I've done that before actually yeah I really deserve another shot at it you know like they got screwed on yeah but the only one at 1209 I got a screw though the first one was it the first one I was about to go at nine and then your piece of junk seat pull out dude you know good luck you got your ratchet straps in there so basically it's a it's a curtain did you see the teeth on this thing no damage come on that's it that's the hardest this car launched for sure on my runs so there's some weird thing in the I guess it's not a weird thing it's a thing that makes sense but when the car goes past 100 injector duty cycle it will throw like an injector air and it'll cut power so I was basically taking boost out until I was just riding the line of it not hitting the injector error but I have a feeling it's hitting the air probably because it'll cool down a little bit so it's making a little more boost so solution for this probably put a zip Tire on the tee lower the boost a little bit and make the car happy either that or potentially it actually is like an injector error and not just because it's going over Duty no there and I didn't want to break it so yep that's cruised it out I appreciate it much slower than 60 on both those 161 and a 163. oh yeah yeah I was slipping through the clutch I think I was launching it like too hard you know what I mean yeah but it sounded great it felt awesome but like it took about five feet to start getting the clutch it's not as easy to shift as you think oh no the Transmissions clapped out in it but it was super fun thank you of course thank you all right let's go faster baby okay leave a little bit harder that was a run that was the best Shifting the best launch in a car shut off right before the end I gotta figure out why it's doing that oh that would have been really yeah so you went 154 to the 60 foot he won 158 when he went that 1089. if it didn't shut off he's still in 1102 at 102. damn so if he didn't have that thing shut off it would have been like a 10-7 right yeah that was a good rip though 687 at 101 after the eighth and shut off that was so fast yeah it felt fantastic one five 60 foot I'm gonna need to probably turn the Boost down a little bit yeah that was 101 oh I don't have my old slip from the other one yeah but yeah no that was like I shifted so good yeah that felt sick that was like a perfect run ride out dude boy's going for the rip how fast do you want to go fast enough all right I'll be cool I'll be pulling around like a low nine Coupe did a nine so it's gonna do better than that all right walk me through the put the steering wheel on so this car is like this like when you're on the starting line you're going to want to be sitting there like this okay line lock trans brake mucho important so when you pull it through your burnout you're going to push the brake trap the fluid okay and then let off the brake you know ah we'll wave you through you just let off of that and kind of roll through smack all those levers forward yeah okay so they're all forage jeans they're not engaged and if you put this one in the middle it's in neutral if you feel that collar how you push down it's like a boat yeah so put it in forward okay there you go see how it's locked in the second spot now this lever is a manual transmission and this is your clutch this has to be engaged to be able to shift on the line like pull up in the Box hold this down floor it and then release to launch okay yeah so you're gonna go wow right when you just hear the RPM rising at all just shift it and then so grab the outside I want to yank it that's in gear that's in gear there you go you're so used to high revving engines this does not like revving high you'll actually feel the car slow down when I'm done what what do I do at the end of the time you can drive back with them back or you can push a couple forward it doesn't matter but do I I don't need the pressure change my crane no the whole rest of the way and don't hit this while you're driving either feel free to short shift it seven thousand is where we shifted any higher than that it just hates life but what does it rev2 I'm not gonna take a limiter yeah oh you won't hit it it's not it's way up there we don't we don't really run a rev limiter we just kind of let it rip you know what I'm saying um don't Jam the brakes right after the run as you already know about going fast that's it cool cool you're dialed all right just throw a helmet on let's do this all right what did I get myself into steering wheel s yeah I'm excited that was a little scary I got them all I thought I missed the ship there's a lot going on in this thing in a short amount of time there's a lot to remember nothing was hard and I thought it automatic was easy but on last suspension since we have a temporary thread on it she just got blown out on that a lot that really messed up our party but you still want to pull that off it's the fastest he's ever gone so I know I just wanted to be a clean Run for the guy yeah corrected it very if it was Ruby it'd be so much easier because it's just one button yeah and then it does everything this car has so much crap going on brother there's a lot going on there's a lot going on I wish I had Ruby I thought I missed one of the the gears because I saw this one still forward so it's like oh crap I forgot to pull that one back but I think I just short shifted too much no I mean you actually did good all things considered you let out and still went in 887. oh I did better than Cooper oh that's all I wanted to do dude I don't know how you went that fast letting off I did a One 360 foot spend a little bit I did yeah you let out right at the spin which is actually good yeah I got a little spoon well I turned it up a little bit for you and then it couldn't hold the track so I kind of screwed it but it would have been cool because that that first launch had me sweating because when it left like that and it pointed at the wall I was like oh God here we go well at least both of us gave each other a sketchy experience in each other's cars yeah and neither one of us was able to do a full run yeah there you go we're good eye for an eye there's it's just like so I think like when I think is this automatic like what would you call this this is a manual automatic because there's just so much going on I know this is not an easy car to jump in but you still wouldn't have made so that's my first eight good job buddy I'm gonna hang it up on my wall there you go next to my first ten that the slipped in print I was getting worried too dude that was a little spooky yeah I think I got short shifted because at the end it just sounded like the RPM wasn't moving anywhere it's only setting three on the boost control I think the air just so at the end it just sounded like the RPM wasn't going anywhere so I thought maybe I was just yeah you short shifted it but it was like trust me down there is so much better than Lake shifting it you did perfect thank you so you're dialed I think because of the cooler weather it's starting to overboost so we got the old paper clip trick and this guy right here hopefully that'll be enough of there right off oh I see what you're doing I got a lower half of science yeah so we're not doing the clamp two zip lines usually usually the problem is you're trying to make more boost we're trying to make less all right I just want to slip all right let's do it have some fun baby that's a good one to leave on a short shift to the ones who are hair so I could definitely improve there but I'm pretty happy with that and it didn't cut out let's go yes hello so I just went a PB to the 60. 144 went 688 at 98. he pinched off that boost line so it's down on some horsepower yeah but when it went 689 and 90 mile an hour in the eighth and went 1081 to make the PB 10 second pass faster at 125 so it's down some mile an hour too but pitching off that line will do that so all that E.T came from that one four four sixty foot but he's going to be happy oh yeah and he's got a slip you know did I lose a little mile an hour yes but listen to the 60 foot all right one four four seven hell yeah so I want 1081 1081 you can see it's down to mile an hour only 125. yeah we went 128 before yeah so the trick is now I put one zip tie off ah there's Matt I'll work my way back up yeah that so I sure shifted the one two a little bit Yeah but the shifts were quick yeah it was a very quick shift and it was okay to be sure because look what it did in the 60 foot yeah sick yeah 1081 1081 and you got your slip for the wolf you're not wrong I'm gonna go for 10-7 144.64 that's good that's I mean that's a 78 or 79 with a mile an hour back yeah with that same 60 folks you know it feels so good dude it looks so sick I thought this car would be harder to drive than the drag car this is way easier to drive foreign another fuel there's nothing you really do same on our to the eighth definitely sporty on that one two popping banging yeah but it uh shut off on him so I went 11 17. that was it that was a 10 even with the throttle cutting out yeah it was 11 17. oh but at 146.64 all right dude that launch it had the wheels up higher and then it like came down and you it must have been real close to limit when he shifted it's like Popeye Fireballs out of it it was sporty that's a good run to end tonight yeah I'm getting a little greedy I did a 1081 at 126 when my last best was an 11-4 at 120 so like a very sizable Improvement that's a good jump my goal was to run like a 1099 so I'm just getting greedy and I'm like ten five ten five ten five this is really fun I appreciate all the help yeah no problem dude super fun if you let me know when you got a little bit of a roll cage in there and bigger injectors and then ethanol and then we'll go for 990s oh yeah I think that is what I think like the phase two for this car is is roll cage ethanol and like 25 30 pounds of boost just and then is that a 15 inch rim if you put like a sporty Tire on it she might flip over backwards I don't want that though I mean but maybe yeah a little bumper action you know like I've dragged race cars before but this is so fun I think because my association with drag racing is like either it's a boring automatic car or I break it on like the first launch yeah so the fact that I've been able to do as many passes with this car and it's like just taking it yeah yeah enjoy it now because as you start to chase that number the you got like this much area of wiggle room yeah as you try to chase that faster number your your window goes a lot a lot smaller and you start breaking stuff at least we'll load her up we got a long drive home but we came here got done what we needed to do ran a 1 4 60 foot uh 10 10 8. that's good thank you guys no problem appreciate the time so close yeah I can still hopped a little bit I can do a little bit more juice 10.89 right there is a real lifewell I gotta ride out dude hey dude what do you think this is sick we're going drag racing today it's almost smaller in person where's the rest tiny it's a tiny car yeah especially compared to this huh I wanted to run my first 10 second pass with you yeah we can't be any other way I know I feel like you needed some guidance too you know after seeing you try to beat the third member out of your nine inch with the axle still in it I appreciate that we're really hoping you'd just come here so we could you know keep an eye on you I love it when you're on the drags too I know it's not your thing but when you're at the drag strip I just I you're smiling the whole time I've come like it's I see more chill than drifting because it's like you do a pass if you see it you talk about it you look at the logs you yeah you hang out and it's so quantitative like you just get a number yep so you know if you sucked or you didn't suck like drifting there's so much left to opinion that's this is the best you just get a number what do you think about old girl I mean this thing's sweet what's the ramblinger set at 85 that's it to him yeah I was expecting like 12 000. it's bought not built so I don't really oh I put the gold things on there and I made the downpipe oh yeah come look at my fat look at my fat I'm really proud of it look I made the firewall by myself oh wow if you did that yeah that looks really good thanks I'm like really really proud of it you did that yeah it's not like two days on it on the bead roller yeah good job coming from McFarland Fab wow what is out of business you hired I didn't make that game oh you went well off with me directly oh dude I'd be down I'd be down here try to pick up the front up a little loose grab the bumper maybe ready it's pretty light I wish we had something to really grab have you waited I was like 1900 yeah I was gonna say it's probably 19. the wheelbase oh let's check it out this is what we're working with eleven four at 121. okay now since then that's actually a pretty good 60 foot yeah that was the wheelie so I let off a little bit and like I'm kind of Granny shifting like not all at all that's got it you just got step number one a chicken foot do not yeah no chicken foot and keep her four all right no taking place what is the possibility of it actually like going back impossible really it won't flip over I mean it'll get up off the ground a little bit by the time it pops up to where it was at in the video that I seen it's already coming back down all right let me bring in my specialist on wheelies George what do you think about him lifting up the word impossible that was thrown out there a little nonchalant but the back bumper could touch just a little and you'll be on your way the only guy I know that's rolled over in a wheelie really yeah dude it's sick somehow this is like the first car that I never paid attention to alignment specs he told me to zero out the toe on the front I had like an inch of toe in so that's why the steering wheel felt like crap good right this is sick oh I'm excited to see you do a wheelie first to do the wheelie I basically dumped the clutch but I'm nervous of breaking the trans that's like the weak one a little bit of slip and then if we need it I'll dump it but if you can just have a really good roll out and like you're rolling through the 60 foot versus just chasing that first you know 60 feet yeah that's where you're gonna kill it so I think you can just not wheelie and just through there it'll be dialed all right hey do you know how to calibrate uh one of these light things that light above RPM yeah is what uh it goes on at 3000 that's not where I should be shifting I don't think oh that's it right there Yep this is it this is it we're doing it this will really help me not sure shifts it oh whatever fell off on the last wheelie we didn't figure out what it was I know there are a lot of people concerned in the comments a look all the bolts are tight so it still runs and it didn't matter I think you know when something like falls in the frame rail and it just Jiggles its way out I think it might have been something like that extension from whoever built the car yeah this is the first time I ever saw nine inches and it looks like a dinosaur I'd say this is a stock steel stamp housing so like an original nine inch in the 60s that's that's the housing that they came hello from the future and part of my Interruption I wanted to mention who won the mark IV Supra that we gave away it was posted on Instagram I don't

for a chance to win thank you foreign get comfortable with the car again curious to see what it traps because that'll tell me about the the power difference it might be a little bit hotter out but I'm just going to really focus on I'm not doing a crazy launch but just get through the gears fast a little bit more confident now that I got these bushings so it's not flopping around like it did before it's a little bit tighter so I'm excited this is fun all the time you gotta let them know foreign let's go we got a little wheel hop there I might have left a little bit too spicy so we'll tone it down a little bit on the next one this thing's so much faster than before I don't think we're that close to running out of gearing before but that time we definitely were yeah he did go 126 mile an hour but the beauty of a track rental yeah is you can back up and retry right there on the spot so bad launch like that abort Mission back her up try again that's true we'll get him tuned in on that I got my first wheel hop yeah I saw that it felt way faster than before though you back half pretty hard 126. yeah look how hard it back has you pick up 30 mile an hour on the second half of the track I don't know what that means but six mile an hour means I'm making some Jam from the eighth of the quarter you were picking up a lot of miles yeah see your monarchy 96 their model an hour and a quarter 126 that's 30 mile an hour yeah we did 11 8 with a with a two liter or 60 foot so that's yeah yeah well you went one Five Sixty foot on your 11-4 you went 2-0 that's fine eleven eight so six mile an hour you could definitely go with that so yeah if you watch the launch just stop it back up it's a rental you can do that yeah you don't have to make the full ring I thought about that but I was doing two amp jobs it's not it's not really yeah I think you need a softer initial hit yeah that was that was like a wheelie right there right there you got it though you're good pull our cool off for a little bit not bad though to pick up that much mile an hour that shows that you did make more horsepower oh yeah small changes you made it feels way more responsive too even driving back here it's like a zippy yeah and then a throttle Stitch too it gets real zippy I'll drop her down a little bit now we could have put a proper drag Tire on this but I think it's way cooler pump gas nt01s streetcar all right let's do the thing that might have been my 10 second pass right there that felt great oh so close so close I honestly don't feel like I could have done that much better other than maybe shift a little faster this gearbox like doesn't want to shift that fast I banged the one too I felt like my shift like timing was good that had to been at least a little 11 maybe a 10. but it felt like it was like the perfect it picked up a wheel a little bit not too much my guess is one six sixty foot eleven one at 127. look at that almost there hello real good that felt real good what'd I run oh so close so close you know what's funny I guessed in the car 11-1 at 127. yeah look at how cleanly you rolled out oh that felt great yeah it looks good but the chefs were lazy you were double clutching it no we're so close so close I thought I I had a feeling I didn't want to look at the scoreboard on the way back because I was like that might be in the 10. that might be it yeah yeah the next one a little bit higher RPM not a lot all right I'm gonna need 10 I'm gonna need a grinder a bag of ice and a computer and two of the big ones nice so I asked Adam I was like did the shift light work and then he was like no I'm not paying attention to that it's kind of hard to see in the light when I looked and I was like you know what let's um let's just actually make it usable yeah I thought that was like I thought this is how it looked I wonder if it's working I'll try Revenant yeah yeah so I need to fix that things I can pass sir yep I caught you so off guard yeah I I really hope that we can go to Texas Roadhouse yeah that'd be nice if I could attend is it do we have time for that if I get a 10 second pass can we go to Texas Roadhouse we get a 10 second pass you get cinnamon butter dude only the cinnamon butter and the rolls just a plate of cinnamon butter if you guys watch the clutch kicker videos you know that every time we would like end clutching here just just so late that we couldn't go to get Texas Roadhouse that was always supposed to be my reward next to the hot tub uh dude imagine Texas Roadhouse in the hot tub foreign thank you but my hood popped on that one I feel like we could still leave better I just might need to dump the clutch I definitely cleaned up the shifting but I don't know if that 60 foot was in I might do it hey 1089 at 128. that was freaking perfect any 11 second car can go 10.99 but a 10 second card into a 1080. yeah you got that 10 89. you didn't get a printout you went 7-0 in the eighth I can tell you that really much data for you that was so you see it popped the wheels in when the one piece here oh man dude it's so close yeah we'll hopped a little bit like I need a little bit more juice yeah you only want a 1089. I win 10's 10.89 really what the heck I damn yeah this thing's got a 10 seconds 128. 128 1089 at 128. and it's only getting cooler outside you're slipped in Prince they're reprinted right now so I think like they saw in that it felt like wheel hopped a little bit like I could maybe take a little bit of pressure out that's the shift what you got to do is leave harder because now the track's cooling down so when you're taking off it's gripping and lugging the car down and starting right you didn't you didn't wheel hop you were dead hook my shifting practice helped 128 dude that's cooking didn't it I can't believe it does have a 350 wheel yeah it's powered away it's terrifying that was a thank you congratulations fun it was a good run thank you this little piece off it'll actually go it'll go faster so I want to leave it on I know that's what I want to do that's me to lose a pound of boost because like 15's like getting sketchy with that piece off it does like 16 and a half calculator sounds like the numbers we need right now when we go when we go nines tonight dude No not tonight we'll get a cage before we go nice so uh Garrett's about to take the car for a spin what could go around I can't think of a single thing I I didn't think you'd want to drive it because I thought you'd think that it's sketchy yeah I usually don't ever drive anything sketchy so this is a one-time thing for me that's a joke right yeah okay I don't know like I'd be University remember what he said over the phone he's like I can't think of a single thing I could go wrong yeah I really can't I mean this thing looks so good dude it's so good I love it I'm really really excited to hear what you think what if it breaks while I'm driving it that's why I wanted to get my 10 second pass first okay so I would I would prefer not to break it but if it happens like I got my 10 second pass that's what I came here for all right you got a trailer yeah so one of them a long time ago was me there was a there's a Starbucks in Texas and uh dude you know in Texas like the the things like off the highway almost like it's like a high-speed Road and there's a parking lot off the highway so once you start turning you can't back back out and it was too tight of a turn so I just hopped the curb I just dug out on the other side if cleat goes faster than me it means I'm gonna have to keep going through bro I don't know if I said this on camera but I purposely made sure I got my 10 second password so the brakes I don't even care I'm super good time wow literally and not literally a good time yeah get it oh oh my God brother what are you doing this is broken exploded oh my God to be the rowdiest Walk of my career oh you just didn't lock it you didn't lock it you adjusted it for me sabotage all right back um foreign holy crap wow I didn't have my helmet flipped on that second one the car I've ever driven it just feels like you're on a four second rip the seats alone see it's blown out I could tell what's your left I see me holding here and then like maybe 800 feet and just shut off my phone's to the floor and it just turned off really so I went through the trash floored but the engine was not running like maybe I wonder if the throttle popped out again no no it's good now really oh yeah it uh it has an overview sometimes when the car is warm it turns off the injectors past 120 duty cycle exactly what it felt like yep it hasn't happened to me in a while no honestly would you think I really want to drive it anymore until the seats fixed because she's like is it bad now I mean if you have her locked in you can just oh no dude yeah it's my fault it's hilarious is watching your helmet disappear my man hit something really hard you got your pass oh I've done that before actually yeah I really deserve another shot at it you know like they got screwed on yeah but the only one at 1209 I got a screw though the first one was it the first one I was about to go at nine and then your piece of junk seat pull out dude you know good luck you got your ratchet straps in there so basically it's a it's a curtain did you see the teeth on this thing no damage come on that's it that's the hardest this car launched for sure on my runs so there's some weird thing in the I guess it's not a weird thing it's a thing that makes sense but when the car goes past 100 injector duty cycle it will throw like an injector air and it'll cut power so I was basically taking boost out until I was just riding the line of it not hitting the injector error but I have a feeling it's hitting the air probably because it'll cool down a little bit so it's making a little more boost so solution for this probably put a zip Tire on the tee lower the boost a little bit and make the car happy either that or potentially it actually is like an injector error and not just because it's going over Duty no there and I didn't want to break it so yep that's cruised it out I appreciate it much slower than 60 on both those 161 and a 163. oh yeah yeah I was slipping through the clutch I think I was launching it like too hard you know what I mean yeah but it sounded great it felt awesome but like it took about five feet to start getting the clutch it's not as easy to shift as you think oh no the Transmissions clapped out in it but it was super fun thank you of course thank you all right let's go faster baby okay leave a little bit harder that was a run that was the best Shifting the best launch in a car shut off right before the end I gotta figure out why it's doing that oh that would have been really yeah so you went 154 to the 60 foot he won 158 when he went that 1089. if it didn't shut off he's still in 1102 at 102. damn so if he didn't have that thing shut off it would have been like a 10-7 right yeah that was a good rip though 687 at 101 after the eighth and shut off that was so fast yeah it felt fantastic one five 60 foot I'm gonna need to probably turn the Boost down a little bit yeah that was 101 oh I don't have my old slip from the other one yeah but yeah no that was like I shifted so good yeah that felt sick that was like a perfect run ride out dude boy's going for the rip how fast do you want to go fast enough all right I'll be cool I'll be pulling around like a low nine Coupe did a nine so it's gonna do better than that all right walk me through the put the steering wheel on so this car is like this like when you're on the starting line you're going to want to be sitting there like this okay line lock trans brake mucho important so when you pull it through your burnout you're going to push the brake trap the fluid okay and then let off the brake you know ah we'll wave you through you just let off of that and kind of roll through smack all those levers forward yeah okay so they're all forage jeans they're not engaged and if you put this one in the middle it's in neutral if you feel that collar how you push down it's like a boat yeah so put it in forward okay there you go see how it's locked in the second spot now this lever is a manual transmission and this is your clutch this has to be engaged to be able to shift on the line like pull up in the Box hold this down floor it and then release to launch okay yeah so you're gonna go wow right when you just hear the RPM rising at all just shift it and then so grab the outside I want to yank it that's in gear that's in gear there you go you're so used to high revving engines this does not like revving high you'll actually feel the car slow down when I'm done what what do I do at the end of the time you can drive back with them back or you can push a couple forward it doesn't matter but do I I don't need the pressure change my crane no the whole rest of the way and don't hit this while you're driving either feel free to short shift it seven thousand is where we shifted any higher than that it just hates life but what does it rev2 I'm not gonna take a limiter yeah oh you won't hit it it's not it's way up there we don't we don't really run a rev limiter we just kind of let it rip you know what I'm saying um don't Jam the brakes right after the run as you already know about going fast that's it cool cool you're dialed all right just throw a helmet on let's do this all right what did I get myself into steering wheel s yeah I'm excited that was a little scary I got them all I thought I missed the ship there's a lot going on in this thing in a short amount of time there's a lot to remember nothing was hard and I thought it automatic was easy but on last suspension since we have a temporary thread on it she just got blown out on that a lot that really messed up our party but you still want to pull that off it's the fastest he's ever gone so I know I just wanted to be a clean Run for the guy yeah corrected it very if it was Ruby it'd be so much easier because it's just one button yeah and then it does everything this car has so much crap going on brother there's a lot going on there's a lot going on I wish I had Ruby I thought I missed one of the the gears because I saw this one still forward so it's like oh crap I forgot to pull that one back but I think I just short shifted too much no I mean you actually did good all things considered you let out and still went in 887. oh I did better than Cooper oh that's all I wanted to do dude I don't know how you went that fast letting off I did a One 360 foot spend a little bit I did yeah you let out right at the spin which is actually good yeah I got a little spoon well I turned it up a little bit for you and then it couldn't hold the track so I kind of screwed it but it would have been cool because that that first launch had me sweating because when it left like that and it pointed at the wall I was like oh God here we go well at least both of us gave each other a sketchy experience in each other's cars yeah and neither one of us was able to do a full run yeah there you go we're good eye for an eye there's it's just like so I think like when I think is this automatic like what would you call this this is a manual automatic because there's just so much going on I know this is not an easy car to jump in but you still wouldn't have made so that's my first eight good job buddy I'm gonna hang it up on my wall there you go next to my first ten that the slipped in print I was getting worried too dude that was a little spooky yeah I think I got short shifted because at the end it just sounded like the RPM wasn't moving anywhere it's only setting three on the boost control I think the air just so at the end it just sounded like the RPM wasn't going anywhere so I thought maybe I was just yeah you short shifted it but it was like trust me down there is so much better than Lake shifting it you did perfect thank you so you're dialed I think because of the cooler weather it's starting to overboost so we got the old paper clip trick and this guy right here hopefully that'll be enough of there right off oh I see what you're doing I got a lower half of science yeah so we're not doing the clamp two zip lines usually usually the problem is you're trying to make more boost we're trying to make less all right I just want to slip all right let's do it have some fun baby that's a good one to leave on a short shift to the ones who are hair so I could definitely improve there but I'm pretty happy with that and it didn't cut out let's go yes hello so I just went a PB to the 60. 144 went 688 at 98. he pinched off that boost line so it's down on some horsepower yeah but when it went 689 and 90 mile an hour in the eighth and went 1081 to make the PB 10 second pass faster at 125 so it's down some mile an hour too but pitching off that line will do that so all that E.T came from that one four four sixty foot but he's going to be happy oh yeah and he's got a slip you know did I lose a little mile an hour yes but listen to the 60 foot all right one four four seven hell yeah so I want 1081 1081 you can see it's down to mile an hour only 125. yeah we went 128 before yeah so the trick is now I put one zip tie off ah there's Matt I'll work my way back up yeah that so I sure shifted the one two a little bit Yeah but the shifts were quick yeah it was a very quick shift and it was okay to be sure because look what it did in the 60 foot yeah sick yeah 1081 1081 and you got your slip for the wolf you're not wrong I'm gonna go for 10-7 144.64 that's good that's I mean that's a 78 or 79 with a mile an hour back yeah with that same 60 folks you know it feels so good dude it looks so sick I thought this car would be harder to drive than the drag car this is way easier to drive foreign another fuel there's nothing you really do same on our to the eighth definitely sporty on that one two popping banging yeah but it uh shut off on him so I went 11 17. that was it that was a 10 even with the throttle cutting out yeah it was 11 17. oh but at 146.64 all right dude that launch it had the wheels up higher and then it like came down and you it must have been real close to limit when he shifted it's like Popeye Fireballs out of it it was sporty that's a good run to end tonight yeah I'm getting a little greedy I did a 1081 at 126 when my last best was an 11-4 at 120 so like a very sizable Improvement that's a good jump my goal was to run like a 1099 so I'm just getting greedy and I'm like ten five ten five ten five this is really fun I appreciate all the help yeah no problem dude super fun if you let me know when you got a little bit of a roll cage in there and bigger injectors and then ethanol and then we'll go for 990s oh yeah I think that is what I think like the phase two for this car is is roll cage ethanol and like 25 30 pounds of boost just and then is that a 15 inch rim if you put like a sporty Tire on it she might flip over backwards I don't want that though I mean but maybe yeah a little bumper action you know like I've dragged race cars before but this is so fun I think because my association with drag racing is like either it's a boring automatic car or I break it on like the first launch yeah so the fact that I've been able to do as many passes with this car and it's like just taking it yeah yeah enjoy it now because as you start to chase that number the you got like this much area of wiggle room yeah as you try to chase that faster number your your window goes a lot a lot smaller and you start breaking stuff at least we'll load her up we got a long drive home but we came here got done what we needed to do ran a 1 4 60 foot uh 10 10 8. that's good thank you guys no problem appreciate the time so close yeah I can still hopped a little bit I can do a little bit more juice 10.89 right there is a real life\n"
