Semi Runs Into Racer on the Highway! (Sick Week - Day 4)

**A Week of Racing and Triumphs**

After a successful racing experience at South Georgia Motorsports Park, our team is eager to share their experiences and insights from the week's events. As they reflect on their journey, it's clear that the thrill of competition and the camaraderie among fellow competitors have made this "Sick Week" one to remember.

**The Drive**

The drive to the track was a crucial part of the experience, with the team enjoying the scenic route and chatting about their strategy for the day. The car was in top condition, with a new air filter and a well-oiled engine that provided a smooth ride. As they made their way to the track, the team's spirits were high, ready to take on whatever challenges lay ahead.

**The Racing Experience**

Once at the track, the team was able to put their car through its paces, fine-tuning its performance and making any necessary adjustments. Despite some initial issues with the car's behavior on the road, the team was able to iron out the problems and make the most of their racing experience. With each lap, they grew more confident in their car's abilities, pushing themselves and their vehicle to new limits.

**The Pit Crew's Humor**

In between racing sessions, the pit crew took a moment to joke with each other about their experiences on the road. They teased one another about the various issues that arose during the drive, from a gear break to a blown tire. Despite these setbacks, the team's sense of humor and camaraderie kept them going throughout the day.

**The Track Experience**

As the racing sessions progressed, the team began to feel a sense of comfort and familiarity with their car. They were able to take advantage of the track's features, including the parachute system, which provided an additional layer of safety and control. With each passing lap, they grew more confident in their abilities, pushing themselves and their vehicle to new heights.

**The Competition**

As the week progressed, the team began to feel a sense of rivalry with other competitors, particularly Ruby. Despite some initial doubts about their chances, the team was able to stay focused and determined, eventually finding themselves neck-and-neck with their rivals. With each passing day, they continued to fine-tune their strategy and make adjustments to their car's performance.

**The Museum Visit**

After a long day of racing, the team decided to visit the Drag Racing Museum on their way to Bradyton. This was a much-needed break from the intense competition, allowing them to relax and take in some history. As they explored the museum, they gained a deeper appreciation for the sport and its rich heritage.

**The Final Countdown**

With the week's racing events complete, the team is now focused on their final drive to Bradyton. This will be their last opportunity to compete before making one final pass down the strip tomorrow morning. As they prepare for this momentous occasion, they are filled with excitement and anticipation, knowing that their hard work and determination have brought them to this point.

**The Road Ahead**

As the team prepares to embark on their next adventure, they can't help but feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. From the highs of competition to the lows of setbacks, they have faced it all head-on, never losing sight of their goal. With each passing day, they continue to grow as competitors and individuals, their bond with each other strengthened by the shared experiences of this "Sick Week".

cruising on the road passing people and steam started coming out the hood and oh the water pump module or water pump again all right yeah i hope it's not the pump the waterproof module with that but we did the same thing on the way the track this morning it blew the fuse which is a sign that the module was going bad and but now we put a new module on and the fuse isn't popped and it's not turned on so we're trying to figure that out it turned on a minute ago but it was back to not working oh so aiden and joey berry driving the box of doom had a water pump module that went bad and they ended up parking here of all places so luckily the local police have uh set up behind them to make sure they don't get hit uh while they're trying to sort it out here hopefully we get back on the road here shortly everything's going so smoothly up until this point this week for them checkpoint number two for the day and the end of our route we're just a few miles away from south georgia motorsports park and we're at the tail end of the racers journey here there's not many people behind us we've been messing around talking to people and it's 10 30 so hell yeah oh that was pretty solid nice rolling

checking with some folks so you got some new drivers so we haven't we haven't even shared yet on the channel this week and uh go from there mr scott brown how are we doing this morning doing great bud just doing a swap over um yesterday went great they run a 48 first pass in the 850 class took some power out of it and run a 53. very nice very nice looking late last night i was either third or fourth place in street race class so i'm pretty excited about that hell yeah how many how long have you had the 53 how long have you had capone and how long has it taken to get to this point this thing's gotten crazy yeah it's got out of control probably 10 years now this is one of my favorite cars because one of those one of the most unsuspecting cars you look at it from the outside it's just green dungey you're wheeled you don't even go fancy on the wheels you don't put welds or nothing on it and this thing runs eight forties which is welcome those are well drag lights with little adapters to hold the hubcaps so oh okay there you go there you go yeah i'm not gonna paint it anytime soon we'll keep it the way it is hell yeah well bessie is made in south georgia good luck today appreciate it 850 with an o that'd be really good here internet good morning good morning how did you get everything fixed last night obviously yeah it's all good new water pumps and oh we had to put in a whole new water pump yeah we had a spare and some new water pump and some water and it was all good so it wasn't the controller you're thinking uh i think it was the connector oh i wasn't making a good connection but how did you end up parked like that by the way were driving and all of a sudden i saw steam started coming out my my peephole here you know and the temperature went from like 160 to like 260. oh yeah we just kind of i shut it off and frantic stopped understandable you don't want to hurt this thing what are you ever averaging this week so far i went 860 the first day 870 the other day trying to get it down to like 8 40 8 30 and maybe a seven on friday that'd be cool want a 30 or 40 today hopefully we'll see so while i got you here could you give us a rundown on what's in this car this is the retired box of doom is it still called that yeah it's still a boxing dude never going to lose that name i love it no it's back to uh the original setup that richie had in it the 6l iron block ls out of a truck with twin turbos how big are the turbos 68 70s okay so not small not too big yeah just they spool nicely on the street five pound springs so better put these bad boys on and uh we'll see on the track soon so aidan bailey tom bailey's son if you don't recognize him and his co-pilot over here joey berry joe berry's son with a creamsicle chevy who's been running very low sevens this week let's see what they can do in the shocks of doom today try to hurt the thing and bring it back around 162 oh yeah this silver 56 behind me we've been filming it all week it's really cool because it's a stick shift car you don't get to see these 56s these old tri-five chevys that are manual cars and he's drag racing the thing and he's doing pretty decently with it he made it south georgia motorsports park we're gonna check in with him and uh figure out the whole setup on this deal how's the drive bid for you guys yeah it wasn't bad at all what give me a quick rundown on the car what's the setup on this thing i'm gonna talk to the owner down here okay here he comes oh there he is hey what's happening how's it going yeah pretty good just adjusting the clutch just making sure all my undercoating is in good shape yeah give me a quick run down what's the setup on the 56 here uh aluminum 582 big block chevy oh okay uh efi big stuff three ecu g-force gf5r ram clutch mark williams 40 spline rear out of all the cars here this is probably not a tri-five chevy's not what i thought would have a manual in it it's awesome that it does is there any reason you decided to go manual with it instead of an auto or two balls what's your best dt this week so far 9 30 flat really what's your what's your goal for the week oh stay in second okay i'm in second place behind rich guido with that the canadian gypsy that traveled here 3 500 miles yeah yeah uh he's way ahead he's like uh i think he's got an eight second average now and i'm just in front of uh rotary oh okay so my goal is to stay in second but also to get to the garlis museum there you go so yeah we're here to have fun and uh do a little bit of work and hopefully it plays out good good luck today hopefully we see another nine out of you yeah oh definitely we'll see you after man all right brother thank you 16 here good morning how's it going joel morning doing good i understand that you set a record yesterday according to the internet yes on accident it was an accident like so yesterday i went out and ran a 1004. that's all i take to is 10-0 yeah so i was like man that's perfect but uh messed up in the staging couldn't build boosts in time so my reaction time was a little longer and at sick week they add whatever you go over one second they add that to your time so i went out left the same tune up in it to make another rip and it left harder than it's ever left and i knew right then i wasn't like i was like i'm gonna break out but i'm not lifting yolo and uh just kept kept grabbing gears and ran in 978 at 143. no way yeah in a stick shift truck stick shift full size full weight how much does it weigh uh 4 600 with me in it holy cow yeah that's that's not light at all and so we filmed the work truck in georgia yep um and he set the record like nine nines after he saw him yeah the old record uh yeah so according to the internet i got it on race week last year okay john and i were at street car takeover atlanta in september yeah and he beat me there and then he went on to protruding truck shootout and he's here right now too oh yeah he's here so maybe we'll see you go back and forth this week uh that would be great we plan on doing like a little friendly grudge heads up and bradenton at the end oh no way yeah that'd be awesome yeah so what's the combo on the car engine turbo uh so it's a stock lq4 lq4 block board 30 over uh with a four inch crank so it's a dark billet crank uh texas speed billet i-beams gorilla pistons uh 243 heads worked over by texas speed uh 80 millimeter turbo which is not even sized for this like that that was from my last setup i didn't have time to get another one uh so it's it's the turbo's a little small for this setup completely stock t-56 magnum straight out of the box wow and uh strange s60 rear end i love it what a week for you congratulations on the new et and we'll see what you do today thanks man good luck 9.90 go samurai are probably gonna catch some hay for this but this is the best sounding car on the event in my opinion yeah man yeah dude dude yesterday was wild yeah what did that last pass put you in in terms of like placement uh i in third place by i could catch the second place today um he's only like six hundredths in front of me no kidding yeah all right well i'll let you get unpacked like

miles an hour in a dark road and deer says i'm gonna come out and play he thinks he could jump and hit the damn car bumper probably saved their life but uh hit that side of the car and smashed it all up and i'm so sorry yes you know but hey we're okay that's a big part it is that's what it that's what's important so freiburger and finnegan the roadkill boys out here at sick week let me tell you let me hear about this car what what's the story on day one we have never seen the thing before until we went through tech and i went straight down the track without even looking at the car it went 14 32 and if you think that's bad it went downhill from there yeah we smoked the clutch yesterday and went 16 something yeah and then a roadkill fan was here who worked at autozone went and bought us another clutch brought it to us really we went to kevin smith's shop pulled the trans back realized it wasn't the right clutch we put it back together and drove all the way here on the smoke clutch now wade from race parts solutions is bringing us some mcleod that will hopefully fit and hopefully we don't destroy that after we don't break that well and don't forget that we drove the thing 150 miles with ratchet straps holding the rear suspension together so we're living the drag and drive experience you guys are all about i love it and how cool is it that literally you you create created

uh steel rubbing quarters i think we're eight quart second right now for unlimited iron what was the number you ran after that 690 205 204 so what is that the best on the car we went 680 at 205 bradenton but it's real soft the converter is real loose uh we're just i mean it's it's a good thing and a bad thing so if you get to a marginal track it'll get down it but if we make it back to bradenton god willing uh we're gonna put a uh a lot a lot tighter converter in bradenton we've got a trailer and then lean on it a little bit it's like to hear that yeah what's your goal with the car

you guys made it we're here you got your trailer uh all fixed up no it's attached it's just like it was we just drove here with a spring mount profile get it welded up later i think nick has a welder on the school bus so i need to try to find him to see if he can fix me up so i got the truck ready to make a pass and i'm going to start jacking this up and cleaning it off so it's ready to weld when am i ready to weld it by the way i just heard over the loudspeaker we started with 341 cars we're now down to 280 so 61 cars have dropped out either during racing or on the drive over the 500 miles to get here today and while we're talking here by the way if you haven't been to our website lately and if you're enjoying this coverage please check out 1320video.com check out some more merchandise we have something for everybody over 100 items my new personal favorite is our new nitrous drip design i'm not a nitrous guy but we check out the colors on that i think you'll enjoy it now back to racing 685 207 that's one and done right there for the swedish boys so 685 are you gonna go back up again are you good with that no now we're gonna try to go fast i said now we have a decent pass in both so now we're gonna try to go really fast we haven't really tried to go fast yet this week because we've been struggling a little bit like we were okay monday and then yesterday we got all screwed by that we thought the track wasn't gonna be there but the track actually got decent so this track here seems really good so we're gonna see try to go fast we haven't really tried we hope we have a idea of the chassis and everything now decent idea we'll see if it's possible to go fast with it 60 foot was good we're gonna plan to put more power in right away after one second we're basically gonna be we're gonna cut the ramp in half let's hope the nose stays down we just need to try to make one more today even if we're kind of fine today like if we want to try to battle for the win in the class we just have to be able to go faster if we need to so far we're good for today but i don't think rick is gonna be satisfied with a lining i don't think so either so what do you think it'll do today what's your what's your hopes i think it went through uh i think it would do a seven eight and i hope for a 60. so rick's at a six eight eight eight here six nine three five it's tight but it's an average so you need to pick up a decent amount yeah we'll see in the 70s at least yeah i don't think that should be too hot good that's why i like to hear so six 7417 yeah that all lifted the head gasket towards the head know and you know there ain't one of these available if so oh yeah it's the same problem see well not exactly any problems you've had but uh no spare heads dang it sorry i'm doing it dang it foreign excellent burnout right there there we go i knew you were waiting for this track for what you said you you wouldn't believe what kind of a beast really it dumbed it down right through it up there oh really yeah your car started acting funny it's not a duck trap interesting but it worked the new auto shifter failed in our test i said i'll just manually shift the i hit them i'll see you nailed the shifting this time too perfect does that do pb i don't know it's either i can't remember when i ran in virginia they're both 89 that was with the five i don't know if that's better so i'll have to try to find an old record so that might be a bb that's fast naturally aspirated too wow let's see it wasn't 16. one one two nice oh by the way we ran our first four second eight mile pass oh no way ninety-eight was the goal that was my goal for the week 498 with an eight i knew you'd be happy what is the engine combo it's a 709 cubic inch five inch more space goodwin hemi seven seconds n a is just unreal nice work are you gonna make another one i don't know we've got a huge cleanup jeff says we're done yeah he's driving no because the dry sump pushes oil at right at about 1300 feet and so it'll be a freaking power cleanup but if i don't know we'll look at the two at the data log to see if it's worth making another hell of a pass congratulations that's awesome foreign he made it dude you made it you made it what time did you leave the track because the sun was going down it was about midnight midnight yeah okay we uh got about 15 minutes from the first checkpoint crashed out of the hotel woke up went to checkpoint headed here nice dude hell yeah you made it made it dude there was never any doubt in my mind i was just gonna be like is he gonna get here with like plenty of time to spare or is he gonna get here early i'm glad i got here when i did because i mean the lanes are full and it's my class so i just came right in yeah good timing dude yeah how's the car running it's running really smooth really smooth everything seems to do good pretty much sounds exactly the same as it did before nice dude why don't you go out there and make that nine nine second pass brother first gear unfortunately he's gonna have a lot of speed as he works his way down the racetrack is not gonna be what he wants so the diesel there we go that's what we needed yesterday i know it's too late now obviously to be in the runnings but at least our cars have worth it we beat mullet we didn't beat the competition we just beat the car feel like it's back if uh we've had just like an abundance of sensor and solenoid failure so we think a problem we've been like avoiding this whole time was just an incorrect reading really so now i'm turning back up incorrect reading on what we thought the car was making coolant pressure which means like the pressure air the pressured area and the cylinders creeping into the coolant system so it'll be a head gasket so we've been like pulling timing out and pull timing out that heats up the valves and everything so we might hurt the valves doing that we just pulled 20 degrees of timing out because the cooling pressure which is really bad and all along we were like why why are we chasing the cool pressure if there's nothing in the tank basically we have a 30 pound radiator cap right and it's saying it's making 90 pounds of cooling pressure so if it was making 90 pounds of blood pressure it would vent it into the tank right yeah there's nothing in our tank and then if you pull the radiator cap off it's like it's not like you know i've had 90 pounds in it i don't know back in the 730s nice run feels good yeah 470. 20 pounds of boost did that on how much you think you can take 50 is what they said oh really i feel like we can do it we need to get after it are you good for today we're gonna send it tomorrow okay we're gonna get into our home so i know a lot of people are really liking this track today if i blow it up tomorrow that i can push it just push it back to your shop shop there you go beautiful nice pass not having a good time in the water box what did you find on the starting line uh i think it broke acts like a transmission or something really yeah cause it couldn't go in here it'll go backwards but it oh it started in second went into high and it just revved up and there wasn't nothing there now it doesn't seem to be anything there in a second but it does back up so i don't obviously think it broke how fast will it go in reverse not that fast well so yeah i don't know i guess we'll find out so we'll see let me get to work good luck i hope they get a pass in today because they do not have a great one right they do have a pass but not a great one right now and i believe they're second overall nice little trailer nice and straight top and says 668 219 you gotta love that congratulations locking in that first place lead even further overall yeah very nice um bad day yesterday but it was a good day for after three runs yesterday yeah but yeah they worked really hard for it yeah we came to the hotel like 12 o'clock this night we had a broken turbo we had to take oil change and everything so it was a bit late out here but we figured out that we it's better to be prepared and just go out there for a run well i can't wait to see how uh tomorrow goes for you i hope the drive is nice and easy and you get to enjoy it yeah yeah an hour all right james so we're trying to piece together what the hell happened to the end of the drive last night i hear you have the rest of the puzzle pieces it was while it happened right in front of us you know we're just driving down the highway in the right lane modding our own business about it exit away from our hotels at and uh there was a semi pulled off on the right side shoulder of the road there's no one next to us on the on the road so we decided to hug the line with the breakers on getting the guys space at the same time because semi in the center lane started driving you know towards us started the passes as we're pulled back center he came all the way down all the way down into our lane really and was halfway cletus and the elko had to go into the shoulder i don't know if the guy fell asleep or if he you know was just trying to be rude to us driving us back over to our lane but next thing you know he went to go over correct or something and it set his truck swaying went from the center lane to the far right lane when he went to the right lane there's the truck a trailer you know right uh sick weaker took the semi and drove up on his trailer there was time oh it was up on top of it yeah yeah it blew his tire instantly i mean this big bang set the truck in the trailer across all three lanes again no tire on fire everything the semi went from being half in our right lane all the way to the far left lane and when he came up on the trailer the whole truck and trailer was almost jackknifed and it i thought i thought the chocolate trailer's gonna roll out an hour on the highway and then we all pulled off to make sure it was okay because literally there's a tire fire on the on the guy's trailer yeah and then it was on fire the tire was on fire i'm just happy he's okay because it could have been bad if his trailer like bent the axle locked up and jack knifed on his truck he kind of sent him to the ditch it was rough great everyone's good see it 25. hell yeah nice ride baby all right when he pulls up he better run out because he's going to be 197. that must've been fast i'm like dude it felt really good and then my phone starts going preparing damn live feeds i know you're stealing our surprises work nice burn out there nice so oh man but after we got out it went okay but to start wouldn't take it out there it went okay then but we'll juice it up and break perfect we've been juicing them how was the drive oh great drive and here we're seasoning them guys last night we defroster works on it said okay we got a cd one listen to the wind noise don't let us listen to like you dogs go on you know a little race car problems but hey we have to give them a little hard time they give us one too so they give us one today yeah i can't get down there what are you gonna drive with the 15 second guys no what's your best for the week so far that 10-7 you know but we're gonna it's quicker than what you're hoping to run yeah we'd really like to have it at a 10-5 you know for the get down and get it in the mid tens tell me if you get weights on a mid-ten car what we're going to do we're going to stop by the museum going down and get on downtown work on the car i mean that's what race week's all about man it's not race week but sick week's all about okay so let's do it so you got some good video this week oh it's been amazing it's like it's been an amazing week good good good hope you guys enjoy the drive maybe we'll see on the road plan to see you guys didn't mean to catch you with your pants down by the way that's great good to see you sam uh we'll catch you on the road thank you so much so 77 okay 58 for the tracker no that was the only thing well you had a uh a gear break on the road the other day that's what it was get on the road well it was all worth it you got new pb and you hit the road exactly beautiful nice work where the trim came off 201 not bad guy at least it's a number i could turn into 201 is a respectable mile per hour right there come on now it was okay how did that one feel a little better it felt better did you have power the full the whole time or didn't break up at all no just shaking the tires so bad really i mean it was shaking it got my first vision got blurry from it i thought i can't lift again is that just the prep that's out there right now or it's too sticky gotcha i mean it is it's good i mean for something other than victoria for a radial yeah for a radio it's great well it's your best that's your best turnable pass in for the week right yeah because everyone was 7 19 so all right six is tomorrow on brady dinner right yeah i just it's it's slow down low but i think it's just sticking i don't know i'll we'll see what the computer says well something you can turn and get on the road so see you tonight so is foreign using the parachute to slow you down so you have a time slip huh yeah i did it's a little better than the v6 mustang brakes from 1999. i used to parachute as much as i can but yeah i'm glad i used it because we almost sort of probably broke out again right exactly and we were worried because you know they sold us we were only going to get one run in so we got one we busted two we busted we totally thought we were screwed and then we pulled that out last second beautiful right at the end too yeah yeah we're really happy with it sweet and it puts us right neck and neck with ruby so it's kind of fun really yeah that's gonna be cool yeah i think we're six and they're seventh but he went in 851 today now in 853 so we're either going to be tied or really close or he might be slightly heavy average is going to make it tricky it is it really is we better hit the roads and catch up the boys sounds good we'll see in a bit we are just about done with racing here at south georgia motorsports park we're about to get on the road and head to there's a big museum that i should know the name of i'll look it up later there's a museum uh at the drag racing museum on the way to bradyton we're gonna stop there that's the only checkpoint for the day there's not even direction to just google it and go then after that tomorrow morning i think we're getting up early driving a couple more hours to bradyton one last drive for all these competitors then they got to make one pass down the strip tomorrow and they have completed the sick week so here we go that was scariest oh my godwell good morning from valdosta georgia we are just a few minutes away from south georgia motorsports park for the fourth day of sick week and it's gonna be interesting day it is 34 degrees outside in southern georgia not ideal racing conditions but hopefully it warms up pretty quick so it's supposed to be like 70 degrees today it's gonna be the best weather of the week so far last night wasn't too exciting we didn't see too many racers on the road we actually left the track when it was at dusk so a lot of racers are probably hiding fixing their cars which is good for them because we can stick a camera in their face when they're stressed out uh had an interesting twist at the end of the the trip so let's go to that right now and then we'll get you the racing action here right after that time to head out from gainesville raceway we're heading to south georgia motorsports park we hear it's about 120 miles so it'll take us three or four hours stopping along the way already getting dark is a long day here at gainesville so we'll see what the struggles are along the way for the racers we're towards the end of the pack but uh lots of racers leaving right now work truck is badass checks i ain't gonna make it uglier than it already is oh alrighty now you guys left and caught i was like oh they're leaving and kyle's like you can give them time they're gonna be broke down he just wants us to go head so that way he can pass and say yay carnage he ain't wrong yeah so no yay carnage

that you were here picture video something that's what everybody's doing a lot of people like to hang out and chit chat and then get back on the road so we're gonna walk around and see who all made it here this far and then get back on the road here in a few minutes oh we got scott with capone ls 3000 gt swedes made it clark is still on the road we got steve warren oh the taylor's made it that's not the taylor's my bad i'm sorry it was dark i couldn't see it that one actually has clear coat on it that's a great one uh it's not not the tailors i think they have some work to do on their car before they get going so this is a park all over here and it's cool but if you look over here this is like a freaking river or a lake or a pond or something i don't know we're gonna walk down here and check it out hey are you fit you know you're not you really went and got your yeah so this guy up there asked if i was gonna go fishing i said yeah and then he was like all right well i live around

real cool oh man you're like man this is nice what is that it's loud is it loud yeah it's like a converter you're gonna keep going in there oh no i'm good okay so we made it to the first checkpoint ivy memorial park about about 50 60 miles from the track so we're about a third of the way through our trip it was a fun ride in sean's beautiful car definitely loud definitely hot but uh is enjoyable riding a six second chevy going down the road pulling a trailer boys are off we're gonna hit the road and see who else we can run into all right guys we've made it to checkpoint number two of the day this is our last one of the day after this one everybody can just type in gps to their hotel and go to the hotel we're gonna walk around a bunch of guys are just hanging out here and uh looks like the willy's is actually getting worked on how are we doing i was gonna get warm did you break it uh no we're slowly fixing it oh even better what's going on what are we fixing today oh no no right now i'm just uh adding our heater so i just removed this plate so we can have a nice hole in the firewall that's just hot air coming off the engine oh yeah yeah gotcha yeah today we finally uh decided to disconnect the uh boost solenoid so now we're just running spring pressure so what's what's spring on this right now five psi just trying to lighten the world on fire trying not to blow it up is there any struggles on the road making it a run absolutely not really good no so got the flex fuel thing working yeah which is really just filling it up premium and it just worked that's nice so uh yeah the computer does this thing and it's all nice so well glad you made it this far we'll see you at the track tomorrow boys that's just the clean little turbo in the fender deal the whole rest of it looks pretty stock except for that cool ass inlet for the turbo all right place your bets great sick weaker or not i hope not yeah i hope not to know what he is oh shoot strange place to park yeah so how did you end up parked here we were cruising on the road passing people and steam started coming out the hood and oh the water pump module or water pump again all right yeah i hope it's not the pump the waterproof module with that but we did the same thing on the way the track this morning it blew the fuse which is a sign that the module was going bad and but now we put a new module on and the fuse isn't popped and it's not turned on so we're trying to figure that out it turned on a minute ago but it was back to not working oh so aiden and joey berry driving the box of doom had a water pump module that went bad and they ended up parking here of all places so luckily the local police have uh set up behind them to make sure they don't get hit uh while they're trying to sort it out here hopefully we get back on the road here shortly everything's going so smoothly up until this point this week for them checkpoint number two for the day and the end of our route we're just a few miles away from south georgia motorsports park and we're at the tail end of the racers journey here there's not many people behind us we've been messing around talking to people and it's 10 30 so hell yeah oh that was pretty solid nice rolling burnout good distance for a front-wheel drive oh boy cletus and crew rolling deep here they come sam in the back oh there's uncle chad oh dang look what a piece of yeah we try to at least too you know so how's your ride good great yeah good good good ready for some sleep we're almost there it's that time we're going too far but yeah i'm afraid to get out of my car why because when i like stop it it goes to the park my whole dash has been going black it's like been glitching this whole time you should write elon and let him know what you think about it i think i am going to send him another text message yeah yeah this one's 100 my fault the cleanest camp rolling out and we are too we're gonna get some sleep we'll see you guys in the morning at south georgia motorsports park oh it's the diesels oh no that's cletus and crew what's going on really that semi ran in the back of justin's truck oh no oh no hit the side of it this is what a dragon trailer looks like when it goes against 18 wheeler wow literally two miles from the hotel yep of course what a weird thing to happen so please we don't even know what happened we were just driving down the road if something weird and i can see in the passenger mirrors and sparks and uh the semi james said the semi got over into me so weird i was in the we were in a lane we were just cruising yeah so is that one back there it i believe it is that one i guess he got pretty close to cletus and cletus come off the road oh and he over correct and go back into me is what james and your hotel is probably the next exit yeah it actually broke the the wheel axle mount on the trailer i'll have to find it oh yeah i'll get it off the road yeah you have a spare for your trailer horsepower what's that do a spare for your trailer i have a spare okay good i think you can limp it with just a replacement tire is it yeah the front spring is still held it's just going to be real low on this side the shackle piece we'll see you guys in the morning good luck all right all right now we're actually heading to the hotel and we'll see you guys tomorrow it's outdoor garden park what's up guys good morning we made it to south georgia motorsports park a lot of cars are already here a lot more stuff to make it we're going to go racing here pretty soon because it's all clear as far as weather goes a little chilly out this morning when we're walking around checking with some folks so you got some new drivers so we haven't we haven't even shared yet on the channel this week and uh go from there mr scott brown how are we doing this morning doing great bud just doing a swap over um yesterday went great they run a 48 first pass in the 850 class took some power out of it and run a 53. very nice very nice looking late last night i was either third or fourth place in street race class so i'm pretty excited about that hell yeah how many how long have you had the 53 how long have you had capone and how long has it taken to get to this point this thing's gotten crazy yeah it's got out of control probably 10 years now this is one of my favorite cars because one of those one of the most unsuspecting cars you look at it from the outside it's just green dungey you're wheeled you don't even go fancy on the wheels you don't put welds or nothing on it and this thing runs eight forties which is welcome those are well drag lights with little adapters to hold the hubcaps so oh okay there you go there you go yeah i'm not gonna paint it anytime soon we'll keep it the way it is hell yeah well bessie is made in south georgia good luck today appreciate it 850 with an o that'd be really good here internet good morning good morning how did you get everything fixed last night obviously yeah it's all good new water pumps and oh we had to put in a whole new water pump yeah we had a spare and some new water pump and some water and it was all good so it wasn't the controller you're thinking uh i think it was the connector oh i wasn't making a good connection but how did you end up parked like that by the way were driving and all of a sudden i saw steam started coming out my my peephole here you know and the temperature went from like 160 to like 260. oh yeah we just kind of i shut it off and frantic stopped understandable you don't want to hurt this thing what are you ever averaging this week so far i went 860 the first day 870 the other day trying to get it down to like 8 40 8 30 and maybe a seven on friday that'd be cool want a 30 or 40 today hopefully we'll see so while i got you here could you give us a rundown on what's in this car this is the retired box of doom is it still called that yeah it's still a boxing dude never going to lose that name i love it no it's back to uh the original setup that richie had in it the 6l iron block ls out of a truck with twin turbos how big are the turbos 68 70s okay so not small not too big yeah just they spool nicely on the street five pound springs so better put these bad boys on and uh we'll see on the track soon so aidan bailey tom bailey's son if you don't recognize him and his co-pilot over here joey berry joe berry's son with a creamsicle chevy who's been running very low sevens this week let's see what they can do in the shocks of doom today try to hurt the thing and bring it back around 162 oh yeah this silver 56 behind me we've been filming it all week it's really cool because it's a stick shift car you don't get to see these 56s these old tri-five chevys that are manual cars and he's drag racing the thing and he's doing pretty decently with it he made it south georgia motorsports park we're gonna check in with him and uh figure out the whole setup on this deal how's the drive bid for you guys yeah it wasn't bad at all what give me a quick rundown on the car what's the setup on this thing i'm gonna talk to the owner down here okay here he comes oh there he is hey what's happening how's it going yeah pretty good just adjusting the clutch just making sure all my undercoating is in good shape yeah give me a quick run down what's the setup on the 56 here uh aluminum 582 big block chevy oh okay uh efi big stuff three ecu g-force gf5r ram clutch mark williams 40 spline rear out of all the cars here this is probably not a tri-five chevy's not what i thought would have a manual in it it's awesome that it does is there any reason you decided to go manual with it instead of an auto or two balls what's your best dt this week so far 9 30 flat really what's your what's your goal for the week oh stay in second okay i'm in second place behind rich guido with that the canadian gypsy that traveled here 3 500 miles yeah yeah uh he's way ahead he's like uh i think he's got an eight second average now and i'm just in front of uh rotary oh okay so my goal is to stay in second but also to get to the garlis museum there you go so yeah we're here to have fun and uh do a little bit of work and hopefully it plays out good good luck today hopefully we see another nine out of you yeah oh definitely we'll see you after man all right brother thank you 16 here good morning how's it going joel morning doing good i understand that you set a record yesterday according to the internet yes on accident it was an accident like so yesterday i went out and ran a 1004. that's all i take to is 10-0 yeah so i was like man that's perfect but uh messed up in the staging couldn't build boosts in time so my reaction time was a little longer and at sick week they add whatever you go over one second they add that to your time so i went out left the same tune up in it to make another rip and it left harder than it's ever left and i knew right then i wasn't like i was like i'm gonna break out but i'm not lifting yolo and uh just kept kept grabbing gears and ran in 978 at 143. no way yeah in a stick shift truck stick shift full size full weight how much does it weigh uh 4 600 with me in it holy cow yeah that's that's not light at all and so we filmed the work truck in georgia yep um and he set the record like nine nines after he saw him yeah the old record uh yeah so according to the internet i got it on race week last year okay john and i were at street car takeover atlanta in september yeah and he beat me there and then he went on to protruding truck shootout and he's here right now too oh yeah he's here so maybe we'll see you go back and forth this week uh that would be great we plan on doing like a little friendly grudge heads up and bradenton at the end oh no way yeah that'd be awesome yeah so what's the combo on the car engine turbo uh so it's a stock lq4 lq4 block board 30 over uh with a four inch crank so it's a dark billet crank uh texas speed billet i-beams gorilla pistons uh 243 heads worked over by texas speed uh 80 millimeter turbo which is not even sized for this like that that was from my last setup i didn't have time to get another one uh so it's it's the turbo's a little small for this setup completely stock t-56 magnum straight out of the box wow and uh strange s60 rear end i love it what a week for you congratulations on the new et and we'll see what you do today thanks man good luck 9.90 go samurai are probably gonna catch some hay for this but this is the best sounding car on the event in my opinion yeah man yeah dude dude yesterday was wild yeah what did that last pass put you in in terms of like placement uh i in third place by i could catch the second place today um he's only like six hundredths in front of me no kidding yeah all right well i'll let you get unpacked like i said before and uh come up and get that 950. did you guys have smoked deer for dinner last night with breika uh yep yep slow roasted baby i gotta go check in with him dude this hurts my heart i know it's pretty hard to see yeah we ran into bambi unfortunately and uh bambi kind of won but we also kind of defeated it we're back so yeah at least the car is still a driving you guys are okay what's that actually that's why they call her to me nova because you can take a look i'll let you guys get parked man man this just hurts my heart yeah me too man what what happened he's going about six miles an hour in a dark road and deer says i'm gonna come out and play he thinks he could jump and hit the damn car bumper probably saved their life but uh hit that side of the car and smashed it all up and i'm so sorry yes you know but hey we're okay that's a big part it is that's what it that's what's important so freiburger and finnegan the roadkill boys out here at sick week let me tell you let me hear about this car what what's the story on day one we have never seen the thing before until we went through tech and i went straight down the track without even looking at the car it went 14 32 and if you think that's bad it went downhill from there yeah we smoked the clutch yesterday and went 16 something yeah and then a roadkill fan was here who worked at autozone went and bought us another clutch brought it to us really we went to kevin smith's shop pulled the trans back realized it wasn't the right clutch we put it back together and drove all the way here on the smoke clutch now wade from race parts solutions is bringing us some mcleod that will hopefully fit and hopefully we don't destroy that after we don't break that well and don't forget that we drove the thing 150 miles with ratchet straps holding the rear suspension together so we're living the drag and drive experience you guys are all about i love it and how cool is it that literally you you create created dragon drive events and your first week at hot rod was that a drag week right yeah yeah so cool that you guys are here that's my first time participating i can't say it's true we're gonna get a gold star for coming in dead last in the six shift class but we will finish yep we got to get on the lift roberts can help you out the portable hoist good luck today guys oh 17 mr kevin smith ksr racing good morning out here at sick week yeah yeah made it through four days and about what 400 some miles might even deliver 500. yeah yeah having a good week so far so far yeah we're doing pretty good doing that sevens ultra rods go pistons uh trick flow out of the box heads holley high ram holley efi like we're big on all the hollywood i have to say thank you because i've talked to at least a dozen people that said they stopped by your shop so thank you for helping out the family that is awesome perfect you're like really close to gainesville right yeah yeah we're only like 10 miles from the track so actually the closest shop to the track as far as any like real performance shots what's going on here on the racetrack thanks so much for your help next year we'll have even more lifts and maybe some more room we've got some stuff in the works ksr may be a stop on the next one an official stop might put that out there maybe that'll help tom make his decision hopefully we'll see you deeper in the sevens today hopefully so yeah i'm aiming for something in the 60s so hopefully it'll do that and then we'll pack it up and head to garland and have us a good time down there love it we'll be watching for you cool thank you appreciate it good morning sean good morning how you doing good thanks for the ride last night yeah absolutely you can almost hear again yeah i'm impaired from it i bet now that we can see in the sun you want to give me the floor run down on the car what big stuff three gen four above again transmission turbo 400 gear bender pretty run of the mill you know uh steel rubbing quarters i think we're eight quart second right now for unlimited iron what was the number you ran after that 690 205 204 so what is that the best on the car we went 680 at 205 bradenton but it's real soft the converter is real loose uh we're just i mean it's it's a good thing and a bad thing so if you get to a marginal track it'll get down it but if we make it back to bradenton god willing uh we're gonna put a uh a lot a lot tighter converter in bradenton we've got a trailer and then lean on it a little bit it's like to hear that yeah what's your goal with the car what do you think it will run once you get uh with the converter i think i think we're going to see a 50 or a 40 or 50 yeah 3 400 pounds yup wow we'll get her signed up we'll see you out on the tractor shortly yeah good luck thank you in my eyes this is the best looking car here at sick week just look at it and this thing runs sixes that is just unreal love this car and these guys are from up in wyoming they travel three days to get down here to florida for sick week so foreign jesse made it to the track let's see how the trailer is

we were okay monday and then yesterday we got all screwed by that we thought the track wasn't gonna be there but the track actually got decent so this track here seems really good so we're gonna see try to go fast we haven't really tried we hope we have a idea of the chassis and everything now decent idea we'll see if it's possible to go fast with it 60 foot was good we're gonna plan to put more power in right away after one second we're basically gonna be we're gonna cut the ramp in half let's hope the nose stays down we just need to try to make one more today even if we're kind of fine today like if we want to try to battle for the win in the class we just have to be able to go faster if we need to so far we're good for today but i don't think rick is gonna be satisfied with a lining i don't think so either so what do you think it'll do today what's your what's your hopes i think it went through uh i think it would do a seven eight and i hope for a 60. so rick's at a six eight eight eight here six nine three five it's tight but it's an average so you need to pick up a decent amount yeah we'll see in the 70s at least yeah i don't think that should be too hot good that's why i like to hear so six 7417 yeah that all lifted the head gasket towards the head know and you know there ain't one of these available if so oh yeah it's the same problem see well not exactly any problems you've had but uh no spare heads dang it sorry i'm doing it dang it foreign excellent burnout right there there we go i knew you were waiting for this track for what you said you you wouldn't believe what kind of a beast really it dumbed it down right through it up there oh really yeah your car started acting funny it's not a duck trap interesting but it worked the new auto shifter failed in our test i said i'll just manually shift the i hit them i'll see you nailed the shifting this time too perfect does that do pb i don't know it's either i can't remember when i ran in virginia they're both 89 that was with the five i don't know if that's better so i'll have to try to find an old record so that might be a bb that's fast naturally aspirated too wow let's see it wasn't 16. one one two nice oh by the way we ran our first four second eight mile pass oh no way ninety-eight was the goal that was my goal for the week 498 with an eight i knew you'd be happy what is the engine combo it's a 709 cubic inch five inch more space goodwin hemi seven seconds n a is just unreal nice work are you gonna make another one i don't know we've got a huge cleanup jeff says we're done yeah he's driving no because the dry sump pushes oil at right at about 1300 feet and so it'll be a freaking power cleanup but if i don't know we'll look at the two at the data log to see if it's worth making another hell of a pass congratulations that's awesome foreign he made it dude you made it you made it what time did you leave the track because the sun was going down it was about midnight midnight yeah okay we uh got about 15 minutes from the first checkpoint crashed out of the hotel woke up went to checkpoint headed here nice dude hell yeah you made it made it dude there was never any doubt in my mind i was just gonna be like is he gonna get here with like plenty of time to spare or is he gonna get here early i'm glad i got here when i did because i mean the lanes are full and it's my class so i just came right in yeah good timing dude yeah how's the car running it's running really smooth really smooth everything seems to do good pretty much sounds exactly the same as it did before nice dude why don't you go out there and make that nine nine second pass brother first gear unfortunately he's gonna have a lot of speed as he works his way down the racetrack is not gonna be what he wants so the diesel there we go that's what we needed yesterday i know it's too late now obviously to be in the runnings but at least our cars have worth it we beat mullet we didn't beat the competition we just beat the car feel like it's back if uh we've had just like an abundance of sensor and solenoid failure so we think a problem we've been like avoiding this whole time was just an incorrect reading really so now i'm turning back up incorrect reading on what we thought the car was making coolant pressure which means like the pressure air the pressured area and the cylinders creeping into the coolant system so it'll be a head gasket so we've been like pulling timing out and pull timing out that heats up the valves and everything so we might hurt the valves doing that we just pulled 20 degrees of timing out because the cooling pressure which is really bad and all along we were like why why are we chasing the cool pressure if there's nothing in the tank basically we have a 30 pound radiator cap right and it's saying it's making 90 pounds of cooling pressure so if it was making 90 pounds of blood pressure it would vent it into the tank right yeah there's nothing in our tank and then if you pull the radiator cap off it's like it's not like you know i've had 90 pounds in it i don't know back in the 730s nice run feels good yeah 470. 20 pounds of boost did that on how much you think you can take 50 is what they said oh really i feel like we can do it we need to get after it are you good for today we're gonna send it tomorrow okay we're gonna get into our home so i know a lot of people are really liking this track today if i blow it up tomorrow that i can push it just push it back to your shop shop there you go beautiful nice pass not having a good time in the water box what did you find on the starting line uh i think it broke acts like a transmission or something really yeah cause it couldn't go in here it'll go backwards but it oh it started in second went into high and it just revved up and there wasn't nothing there now it doesn't seem to be anything there in a second but it does back up so i don't obviously think it broke how fast will it go in reverse not that fast well so yeah i don't know i guess we'll find out so we'll see let me get to work good luck i hope they get a pass in today because they do not have a great one right they do have a pass but not a great one right now and i believe they're second overall nice little trailer nice and straight top and says 668 219 you gotta love that congratulations locking in that first place lead even further overall yeah very nice um bad day yesterday but it was a good day for after three runs yesterday yeah but yeah they worked really hard for it yeah we came to the hotel like 12 o'clock this night we had a broken turbo we had to take oil change and everything so it was a bit late out here but we figured out that we it's better to be prepared and just go out there for a run well i can't wait to see how uh tomorrow goes for you i hope the drive is nice and easy and you get to enjoy it yeah yeah an hour all right james so we're trying to piece together what the hell happened to the end of the drive last night i hear you have the rest of the puzzle pieces it was while it happened right in front of us you know we're just driving down the highway in the right lane modding our own business about it exit away from our hotels at and uh there was a semi pulled off on the right side shoulder of the road there's no one next to us on the on the road so we decided to hug the line with the breakers on getting the guys space at the same time because semi in the center lane started driving you know towards us started the passes as we're pulled back center he came all the way down all the way down into our lane really and was halfway cletus and the elko had to go into the shoulder i don't know if the guy fell asleep or if he you know was just trying to be rude to us driving us back over to our lane but next thing you know he went to go over correct or something and it set his truck swaying went from the center lane to the far right lane when he went to the right lane there's the truck a trailer you know right uh sick weaker took the semi and drove up on his trailer there was time oh it was up on top of it yeah yeah it blew his tire instantly i mean this big bang set the truck in the trailer across all three lanes again no tire on fire everything the semi went from being half in our right lane all the way to the far left lane and when he came up on the trailer the whole truck and trailer was almost jackknifed and it i thought i thought the chocolate trailer's gonna roll out an hour on the highway and then we all pulled off to make sure it was okay because literally there's a tire fire on the on the guy's trailer yeah and then it was on fire the tire was on fire i'm just happy he's okay because it could have been bad if his trailer like bent the axle locked up and jack knifed on his truck he kind of sent him to the ditch it was rough great everyone's good see it 25. hell yeah nice ride baby all right when he pulls up he better run out because he's going to be 197. that must've been fast i'm like dude it felt really good and then my phone starts going preparing damn live feeds i know you're stealing our surprises work nice burn out there nice so oh man but after we got out it went okay but to start wouldn't take it out there it went okay then but we'll juice it up and break perfect we've been juicing them how was the drive oh great drive and here we're seasoning them guys last night we defroster works on it said okay we got a cd one listen to the wind noise don't let us listen to like you dogs go on you know a little race car problems but hey we have to give them a little hard time they give us one too so they give us one today yeah i can't get down there what are you gonna drive with the 15 second guys no what's your best for the week so far that 10-7 you know but we're gonna it's quicker than what you're hoping to run yeah we'd really like to have it at a 10-5 you know for the get down and get it in the mid tens tell me if you get weights on a mid-ten car what we're going to do we're going to stop by the museum going down and get on downtown work on the car i mean that's what race week's all about man it's not race week but sick week's all about okay so let's do it so you got some good video this week oh it's been amazing it's like it's been an amazing week good good good hope you guys enjoy the drive maybe we'll see on the road plan to see you guys didn't mean to catch you with your pants down by the way that's great good to see you sam uh we'll catch you on the road thank you so much so 77 okay 58 for the tracker no that was the only thing well you had a uh a gear break on the road the other day that's what it was get on the road well it was all worth it you got new pb and you hit the road exactly beautiful nice work where the trim came off 201 not bad guy at least it's a number i could turn into 201 is a respectable mile per hour right there come on now it was okay how did that one feel a little better it felt better did you have power the full the whole time or didn't break up at all no just shaking the tires so bad really i mean it was shaking it got my first vision got blurry from it i thought i can't lift again is that just the prep that's out there right now or it's too sticky gotcha i mean it is it's good i mean for something other than victoria for a radial yeah for a radio it's great well it's your best that's your best turnable pass in for the week right yeah because everyone was 7 19 so all right six is tomorrow on brady dinner right yeah i just it's it's slow down low but i think it's just sticking i don't know i'll we'll see what the computer says well something you can turn and get on the road so see you tonight so is foreign using the parachute to slow you down so you have a time slip huh yeah i did it's a little better than the v6 mustang brakes from 1999. i used to parachute as much as i can but yeah i'm glad i used it because we almost sort of probably broke out again right exactly and we were worried because you know they sold us we were only going to get one run in so we got one we busted two we busted we totally thought we were screwed and then we pulled that out last second beautiful right at the end too yeah yeah we're really happy with it sweet and it puts us right neck and neck with ruby so it's kind of fun really yeah that's gonna be cool yeah i think we're six and they're seventh but he went in 851 today now in 853 so we're either going to be tied or really close or he might be slightly heavy average is going to make it tricky it is it really is we better hit the roads and catch up the boys sounds good we'll see in a bit we are just about done with racing here at south georgia motorsports park we're about to get on the road and head to there's a big museum that i should know the name of i'll look it up later there's a museum uh at the drag racing museum on the way to bradyton we're gonna stop there that's the only checkpoint for the day there's not even direction to just google it and go then after that tomorrow morning i think we're getting up early driving a couple more hours to bradyton one last drive for all these competitors then they got to make one pass down the strip tomorrow and they have completed the sick week so here we go that was scariest oh my god\n"
