The Pit Area: A Gathering of Enthusiasts and Car Enthusiast's Friendships

In a small pit area, surrounded by dusty tracks and the hum of engines, a group of car enthusiasts gathered to share their passion for speed and performance. The atmosphere was lively, with everyone exchanging stories and jokes as they worked on their vehicles. One enthusiast, Weston, joked about not being able to afford antifreeze, but his friends reassured him that duct tape and zip ties would be enough to keep his car running smoothly.

As the conversation turned to car modifications, a fellow enthusiast mentioned having copied a car's design. The group laughed, knowing that it was all in good fun. Another member of the group shared his experience with packing down a hose, using nothing but a few pieces of duct tape to secure it. "It's fine," he said with confidence. However, when asked about a recent engine problem, he admitted that he had hit the converter at the wrong time, causing the engine to overheat.

The group took a moment to admire their work on the vehicle, discussing fuel mods and aerodynamics. One enthusiast shared his love for conditioning and gel, which made him proud to have won $500 for his intake modification on Amazon. He showed off his prize-winning part, explaining how it fit perfectly into the 2.3L hybrid engine of a Mustang.

The group then turned their attention to an overflow tube, discussing the need for clamps and zip ties. "We've got this time," one member said confidently. Another added, "You do that." And indeed, they did, using shared zip ties as makeshift hose clamps. The solution was creative and resourceful, reflecting the camaraderie and willingness to help each other out.

As the group prepared to hit the track, their excitement grew. They were unsure if they would break anything or not, but they were determined to give it their all. One enthusiast joked that he didn't want to leave soft, as he had left the boost setting at four pounds instead of full power. Thankfully, everything seemed to be in working order, and the car was ready for the challenge.

The day began with a sense of anticipation and possibility. The group hit the track, eager to test their vehicle's limits and see how it would perform. As they sped down the track, they felt a rush of adrenaline and excitement. It was an exhilarating experience, one that they had all been looking forward to for some time.

As they took breaks between runs, the group discussed their progress and what they needed to do next. They were determined to fine-tune their setup and get as much power out of the engine as possible. The good news was that everything seemed to be working well, but there were a few minor issues to address. One enthusiast mentioned a slight blue slick on the smoke stream, which they hoped would clear up with further tuning.

The group's goal for the day was to hit seven-second quarter miles, and they felt confident that they could achieve it. They were willing to push their vehicle to its limits, using every trick in the book to squeeze out more power and speed. As they left the track, they couldn't wait to come back and do it again.

In the end, the group's experience was a testament to the camaraderie and passion that drove them to pursue their shared interests. It was an afternoon filled with laughter, excitement, and a sense of adventure. They had pushed themselves to the limit, both physically and emotionally, but in doing so, they had found a true community and a deep connection with one another.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enat the current moment we are loading the smoke sting up to go to the track it's a monumental moment this is an experimental moment because we don't know what we're going to break but we've got bungee cords so it's going to be like that off the track a little faster though if we bring tools and stuff to fix it that's just a sign that's going to break if we don't bring any of this up it's not going to break faith you doubt me i will break every drive line in this county i am really worried because the little v6 rear end and axles might be in danger that's how you know it's a good raptors if it's squatted dude it's really squatted it's fine oh it is spotted he wasn't joking that's a natural bump stopper you know if you don't look at the trio somebody from south carolina paid 150 000 for this you put the green handle in because it's more fuel efficient and also it's better for the environment it's going green that was like what just don't get out of control i am a race car driver i am a semi-professional race car driver do you know that i'm not dubbed that i like big dicks no it's i'm i'm a semi-professional race car driver i'm a semi driver i've

they'll look it over yep is it okay if my battery's held down by rackstrap i don't know you'll have to ask i do have a bungee strap if we need to change it this thing has 16 second potential and i can feel look powered by dust this thing is ready to rip wait there's something on the other side over there yes just imagine all them chevelles if you're going to ride my ass at least pull my air oh god by the way i've seen your sticker before that's badass i love that sticker the power of my duster pull my hair one powered by is my favorite peeler open let's see what's under the hood peeler open

else i've got one right here so if you've got a hose that you can hook into that like a rubber hose i'll i'll steal a hose from somewhere and i'll just hook it into this bottle or something yeah um i wouldn't suggest that bottle but if you i got a gatorade bottle or something yeah a gatorade bottle would be better because the plastic's thicker but if as long as you can do that and then zip tie it in here i mean hell you can right here on this wiring harness you can zip tie it to that so it stays connected yo so are you running antifreeze no it's got solid water in it if we don't we can't afford antifreeze don't make fun of us how many zip ties you got okay then we're good gotta be free we need to be friends weston everybody in this whole pit area has duct tape and and and zip ties you're gonna catch the guy that broke into your shop and i was like somebody copied his damn car that's gonna come and seen it i could hear it from over there dude you've got yours held down a lot better now i'm not going to tell them but mine's pack welded down that's all it needs it's fine i don't think it's good what's this thing wrong uh seven tens right now but i wish it go a lot faster you think so uh i hope hopefully it will in a couple weeks i would swim a lot about it well that's how you know you're getting ready to have fun either you're buying parts because you're having fun or

like in 15 seconds it's not gonna overheat you'll be fine that gel makes me proud gail banks would be really proud of that we couldn't afford his intake he won 500 bucks for that that was 62 on amazon he probably couldn't beat it the heck yeah man you got it in here what do you think of our overflow tube all right this is gonna be good we need a clamp we need a zip tie we need a zip tie we got something we need this time you do yeah man right there is awesome he shared his zip ties with us and we're going to use him as a hose clamp because we didn't have an overflow to him and now we stole a hose off of her car stuck it into a gatorade bottle and now that's our plug all right guys we are up to the track we're getting ready to do this i don't know if we're gonna break it we're probably
