“Fuel injected” means the engine sprays fuel in a controlled way using electronics. It’s different from older carburetors, and when something goes wrong, the fix often involves checking sensors and the fuel system rather than just adjusting a carb.
“High idle” means the engine is revving too fast while it’s just sitting still. When that happens, it usually points to a problem with how the engine controls air and fuel at idle.
Term
diagnose it
“Diagnose it” refers to troubleshooting to identify the root cause of a problem, typically using a combination of inspection and test results. In modern vehicles and equipment, diagnosis often includes reading fault codes and checking sensor/actuator behavior.
A “battery” is the electrical power source used to start an engine and run electronics when the engine isn’t producing power. If a battery is weak or failing, you can get hard-start issues that look like mechanical problems but are actually electrical.
When you “spool up” a turbo car, you’re waiting for the turbo to spin fast enough to make boost. It’s the moment the engine starts producing that extra turbo power after you press the gas.
“Hemi” is a nickname for a specific style of V8 engine used by Chrysler. People associate “Hemi cars” with big power and a very recognizable sound, especially in racing.
“LS” is a popular GM V8 engine family. “Twin turbo” means there are two turbochargers, which help the engine make more power—especially when you’re racing and need quick acceleration.
Term
turbos are mufflered
They’re talking about trying to quiet down a turbo setup with mufflers or other exhaust noise-control parts. But turbo cars can still be loud even when you add muffling.
Piston rings are small metal rings on the piston that help seal the cylinder and keep oil where it belongs. If they “stick,” the engine can start running poorly or fail because the rings can’t do their job.
A blower is a device that pumps extra air into the engine so it can make more power. A bigger blower usually means more air pressure, but it can also stress engine parts more than before.
Gas-ported pistons have extra openings built into the piston to help control how combustion pressure behaves. The goal is to keep the piston rings working correctly and prevent them from sticking.
A ring package is the exact set of piston rings installed in the engine. Different ring designs can seal better and handle heat differently, which matters a lot when rings are sticking.
Term
spare stuff
“Spare stuff” here means extra replacement parts ready to go. In racing, having backups helps you fix problems fast so you can keep competing.
Term
spare racks
“Spare racks” are storage areas where a team keeps backup parts. If something keeps breaking, they need more parts ready to replace it quickly.
Place
martin michigan
Martin Michigan is where the next race is happening. The hosts are talking about their schedule and how they’ll be there for the next event.
A converter here refers to a torque converter used in an automatic transmission. In drag racing, the torque converter’s stall characteristics affect how the car launches and how the engine stays in its power band under boost.
Boost lines are the tubes that carry the pressurized air from the supercharger/blower to the engine. If they leak, the engine won’t get the boost it needs.
The Oldsmobile Cutlass is an older American car that many people customize. In the podcast, they mention one with “paddles,” which sounds like a particular feature or driving setup on that car. The conversation is focused on what that specific Cutlass had.
The pulley is part of how the blower gets driven by the engine. If you change pulley size, the blower spins faster or slower, which changes how much boost (extra pressure) the engine gets.
“Outlaw stuff” means the car is set up in a way that doesn’t follow the rules of a normal class. It often involves parts or settings that would be disallowed in stricter competitions.
“Three forties” means the car is running very fast times—around the 3.40-second range for the quarter-mile. Drag racers use these numbers to compare how quick cars are.
Term
door car record
A “door car record” refers to a record category for street-legal (or production-based) cars—cars with doors—rather than dedicated purpose-built race cars. The exact rules vary by series, but the idea is comparing performance within a more restricted class.
Concept
what's legal
“What’s legal” means the rules for that race class. It can limit what parts you’re allowed to change, like blower pulley sizes, so everyone competes under the same constraints.
The Toyota Supra is a sports car made by Toyota. People talk about it a lot because it can be modified to make more power. The podcast mentions it in relation to what fuel is used and how that can change how the car runs.
Term
pounds
They’re talking about how much extra pressure is being forced into the engine. More pressure can make more power, but it can also be harder on the engine if it’s not tuned correctly.
A tuner is the person who sets up the car’s engine computer so it runs correctly. In drag racing, the tune has to be right or the car can break or run into trouble.
Concept
stripped him of all of his points
“Stripped him of all of his points” means the competitor’s results were invalidated for the season standings, usually due to a rules infraction or disqualification. Points systems are how drag racing series track performance over multiple events.
Erin Wells is the person they say replaced the original driver in the finals. They’re a competitor in that drag race.
Person
ryan
Ryan is the driver they’re praising for doing really well at the race. They say the car wasn’t fully sorted and there wasn’t a tuner there.
Term
struck the tire
That sounds like the car hit a tire barrier/obstacle during the run. In drag racing, hitting something like that usually means you lose the run because the car can’t keep going straight or safely.
In eliminations, racers advance step-by-step. “One more round” means winning an additional head-to-head race so you go further in the bracket and usually score more.
Before the head-to-head races, drag racers do timed runs to rank the cars. “Qualify number one” means you were fastest in that session, so you start eliminations with the best advantage.
“ET” is short for elapsed time, basically how many seconds the car takes to go down the strip. “Low ET of the round” means the fastest time in that round, and some events give extra points for it.
Qualifying is the timed practice/competition runs that set up the bracket. “Low qualifier” means the person with the fastest qualifying time, and some races reward that with extra points.
Darlington is a drag-racing track in South Carolina. In July it can get brutally hot, and that heat can make cars run differently and tires behave differently.
A lifter is a small engine part that helps open and close the valves. It sits in the valve system and moves based on the camshaft, so if the lifters are fine, that part of the engine might not need replacing.
The crankshaft is the big rotating shaft inside the engine that turns the power from the pistons into motion the rest of the drivetrain can use. If it’s damaged, the engine often can’t be fixed with minor parts.
The camshaft is the part that controls when the engine’s valves open and close. If it’s damaged, the engine’s timing and breathing can be wrong, so it often requires serious repair.
The engine block is the main metal body of the engine that holds the cylinders. If the block is damaged, it usually means the engine needs major rebuilding.
“Timing pulled out” means the engine is told to spark a bit later than usual. That can help keep the engine from knocking when it’s under heavy boost, but it may cost some power.
A leak-down test checks whether each cylinder is sealing properly. They put air pressure into the cylinder and see if it leaks out, which can reveal problems before you run the engine hard again.
A baseline is a starting measurement you record so you can tell if things get better or worse later. They want one after rebuilding so they know the engine is in good shape before racing.
Compression is how much pressure the engine builds inside the cylinders. Low compression can mean worn rings, valve issues, or a head gasket problem, so it’s a common check before hard driving.
The oil pan is the reservoir at the bottom of the engine that holds engine oil. Swapping or modifying it can be necessary when fitting different engine components or when you want clearance for other parts in a custom drag setup.
Cubic inches is a way to measure engine size. Bigger displacement usually means more potential power, so changing it can change how the engine performs on the track.
A dyno is a machine that tests a car or engine while it’s strapped down. It helps you measure power and make sure everything is running correctly before racing.
Main bearings are the bearings that hold the crankshaft in place. If the engine has been under heavy stress, the mains can show wear that tells you what’s been happening inside.
A stock crankshaft is the original crankshaft that came with the engine. With big power, it can bend or flex more than a stronger racing crank, which can hurt the bearings over time.
Procharger is a type of supercharger system. It forces extra air into the engine, which can make a lot of power, but it also adds stress to engine parts.
Term
small tire
In drag racing, “small tire” means the rules limit how big your tires can be. That helps keep the race fair by preventing the biggest, grippiest tires from dominating.
A “chip” usually means a performance tuning device for the engine computer. It can change how the car runs so it accelerates better and responds more sharply.
In drag racing, “cutting the lights” is about how fast you react when the start lights come on. The quicker and more precisely you launch (without breaking the rules), the better your chances.
They’re talking about a “triple crown” series—basically a set of drag races where doing well across multiple events can earn a bigger overall reward.
Term
winter series
The “winter series” is a seasonal set of races. The hosts are saying the same person who had a chance to win there also has a chance in the current series.
Jason Harris is a drag racer being talked about in this episode. The hosts are saying he’s doing really well right now and is hard for other racers to beat.
A “double header” means two race events are run close together at the same track. So you get more than one chance to qualify and race during the weekend.
Maple Grove is the track where these drag races are happening. They’re describing a weekend schedule with more than one race event.
Term
qualify it run it
This phrase means they’ll do qualifying runs first, then race runs. Qualifying helps set up where you go in the bracket, and then the real competition happens.
“Mid 50” is a quick-time shorthand drag racers use for how fast the car runs in seconds. The point here is that the car is capable of running very fast times repeatedly.
“Motor apart” means the engine was taken apart and worked on. After that, the team has to put everything back together correctly or the car can fail on the next run.
Term
overflow drain
An “overflow drain” is a small drain that catches extra fluid so it doesn’t spill everywhere. If it comes loose, fluid can leak onto the tires and cause problems during a run.
“Rods” are internal engine parts that connect the pistons to the crankshaft. If the engine is still running and the rods are still there, it suggests the problem isn’t a rod failure.
Term
rod kick
“Rod kick” means an internal engine part (a connecting rod) fails badly. When that happens, it can punch through parts of the engine and usually ends the run.
Term
quad zeros
“Quad zeros” is drag-racing slang for an insanely quick time slip. It means the car is running times so fast that the numbers start with a bunch of zeros.
“HRA” is the name of a drag-racing series/organization. When they say someone is “making huge noise in HRA,” they mean they’re doing well in that specific competition.
Term
screw combo
A “screw combo” is slang for a particular kind of forced-induction setup. It usually means the car uses a blower design that changes how it makes power.
“Pro line” sounds like a racing label—basically a category or setup name. Here it’s mentioned as something different from another modification the car has.
The Dodge Charger is a car made by Dodge that’s built for power and quick driving. People often customize them with different parts. The podcast brings it up in the middle of a discussion about a Charger being worked on.
It means the car lifts up during the start because it’s putting down so much power that the tires can’t keep it planted. It’s a sign the car is very strong off the line, but it can also be hard on traction and control.
A “no prep” drag race means the track isn’t specially cleaned or made grippy. Because the surface is unpredictable, it’s harder to launch consistently.
“Wings” are the big aero pieces on the back of a race car that push the car down onto the road. They can help traction, but they can also slow the car down a bit due to extra air resistance.
When racers say “20s,” they’re talking about how fast the car runs in seconds—basically a quick way to say the time is in the 20-second range. Faster “20s” usually means you’re more likely to advance in the bracket.
The Chevrolet S10 is a compact pickup that’s popular in drag racing because it’s relatively light and easy to modify. In this segment, the S10 is being compared directly to a faster “green truck,” highlighting how competitive these builds can be.
Thunder Valley is the name of a drag racing event/venue. The hosts mention it to say where these trucks raced and who they beat.
Term
primer black
“Primer black” means the truck is left in a primer-like black finish instead of a fully painted look. Some racers do it because it’s faster and tougher for track use.
A valve cover is a cover on top of the engine that protects the moving parts under it. People notice it because it’s visible and can hint at what engine parts are installed.
LIVE
We're recording like we're going starting this deal there you go I need some sort of
like this I got this chair over here like this can you see my feet oh you can is that
Let's see you got that chair over there my back is hurting bad same leaned over the 55 all day
yep okay so episode 14 moral nation unfiltered I mean we've done 13 of these and every week
too a lot has happened in the last week actually so much to talk about that has happened in the
last week since we've done one of these yeah man you know we've been home for a full week now
and it's actually been really nice I've enjoyed it I don't know about you I have it's just can't
make any money at home yeah that's true that is very true and somehow we still seem to spend it
while we're home yes so there's that but I have enjoyed personally just being an old man at home
and taking care of my yard I bet I've moved my yard like seven times since we've been home I
would mow my yard except my mower messed up yeah I was bragging about the one that I was happy
about and and all that and now I was the same reasons that I was happy and that I got that mower
is the same reasons that I can't work on it oh yeah it's fuel injected I don't know the whole
high idle thing it runs it is one idle yeah it's weird that it doesn't have a lever you know
there's no level it's just a switch so I don't know but it works every once in a while so I took
it in for them to diagnose it and I don't know I'll probably swing by tomorrow and just talk to
them they're not really diagnosing I don't know don't know what's going on but they acted like
there's gonna get it back to me quick took it in last week yeah I remember well then they said
that they would work on it today that I took it in we even parked it in their way so they would
or at least have to touch it yeah so yeah that's the key guys when you drop something off somewhere
you got to put it right in their way that way they go over and they have to physically mess with it
right then yeah I mean just think if it wouldn't have started yeah they'd had to mess with it to
get it started they would have get it to move they would have had a trouble shot why it wouldn't
start and then you know you think well why we're here let's just go ahead and knock this deal
that's right that's right man just put it on the lift yeah so we should have like a battery
because it fired up I'm sure yeah and they just moved it and the switch probably even still
worked probably did so yeah now my lawn looks terrible I had a long guy yeah craziest thing
ever man whenever we're out of town I have a guy who comes over and he and he keeps the yard from
from looking too terrible yeah getting too overgrown and he just does it by the
house yeah the rest of the stuff I just beat down with my tractor whenever I get home and I like
that I'm good with that and I want to be able to do that but the stuff around the house that involves
weed eating and the really nice part of the yard yeah I'm okay with him taking care of that part
well now he's MIA I don't know anything about him I don't know where he's at I don't know what's
going on that's crazy I have text him and he's got his read receipts on he has not even read it
and I text him over a month ago I thought like this is some dude this is a guy you've known for
like yeah this is swole anybody who knows the black guy that helps Chuck he's
Chuck's crew guy yeah you know he's a bit of buddy of ours forever and I man I I don't know who
to reach out to to ask him hey man yeah is everything okay with swole I've called him no
answer maybe I upset him how I don't I don't know because it's the he's he's very very easy to work
with oh yeah because he doesn't ask no questions he just comes out every two weeks because I told
him hey man I don't need it every week just come out every two weeks so when we're on the road he
comes out every two weeks I don't hear from him he doesn't tell me hey I'm coming to mow the yard
he doesn't tell me hey I just mowed the yard none of that stuff he literally sends me a bill through
cash app and it says whatever it is what's that called where you request money yeah you request
money he request money on cash out and I pay it I don't even talk to him did you not pay it yeah
I know I've paid him every time oh oh I don't know was it hot hot in here something had happened
to the AC and it had blew up in here yeah it was pretty hard to booger and somebody's coming
over between six and eight tomorrow didn't know tonight oh wow we better get this show on the
road I will be alright so um but anyways I do like to mow but also yeah now my mowers messed up
and it's getting pretty tall out my yard yeah man that's that's one of the things
things that I miss most about a normal life is like taking care of my yard I would have a golf
course style yard if we were home all the time still yeah he will one of these days whenever
you're an old man yeah no as I get older I find myself wondering why people are speeding down my
road yeah like that you know do you ever get mad at your neighbors for being too loud
and call the cops no I do not my I don't have any neighbors yeah yeah that's the that's the shitty
thing about having neighbors it's crazy like that I could have bought a house in town with a shop
and everything but I didn't because I make a lot of noise and I've made noise for three years or
now I guess he finally had enough this is what it is man sometimes you got to call the police I
guess look man at some point maybe he was tired of his old lady bitching at him so he had to do
something I guess his old ladies probably like I told you he's doing that again and he probably got
tired of hearing her so you know yeah maybe had to make some decisions you know the yeah the cop
was like I don't know man do dooch do I mean all you do is spool up a car yeah I mean for a while
but yeah it's not like it's that loud it's not like it was the you know one of the hemi cars no
it was an LS twin turbo deal like turbos are mufflered yes they are the muffler yeah doesn't
make any sense but whatever whatever I don't know so yeah well let's let's just get into what
all has happened this last week so do you hear that not bad so do you hear us do we sound good
everything nice and clear headphones over there you're looking real official real official
so referee but is it all good Aiden is saying that the quality of the audio on this podcast
is gonna be good yeah there's no way that he's gonna complain about the quality
because it's good yeah so let's just get into it let's touch on our last you know last time we were
here we were holding this eagle we just won the season opener the Midwest we were kind of riding
high into the second race like an eagle yeah flying high soaring high like an eagle to us 131
Martin Michigan we thought we were ready we knew there was gonna be some more big dogs showing up
we were cool with it and then we sucked all weekend yeah it yeah I know it sucks man I
don't even know what to say it was bad it was like we couldn't figure out what was wrong with the car
we heard it a couple times changed three or four pistons I feel like we heard it once and then the
the rings just stick whenever they feel like it yeah it's weird it's very weird we've never really
had that trouble before and now we do I know and now we've had that problem the last look let's be
honest we're making more power now with the bigger blower yeah we haven't had that problem with the
other blowers but we didn't have it with a turbo and it makes way more power I mean we did kind
of but not to this extent different power maybe I don't know can't call
it we'll continue doing the work it does suck yeah it's not a matter of the work like I
don't mind the work I'll do whatever we got to do to to win but man I'd sure like to know why
I like to know why and I don't mind doing the work if we're going rounds it's really you suck yeah
I don't like working on the cars yeah I mean we still went 59 but it was all we could do to
muster up a 59 when everybody else was running 56 57 55 that's the tough part there because you
guys know how I feel if there's somebody on the property running 55 I think that we should be
running 54 I feel like we have the potential we did not we we couldn't make it happen though we did
not watch this I'm gonna get him and they've been a real nuisance today I'm something like
him go I went like this oh no he's dead is he dead no he flew that way
his head's ringing for sure yeah he better go on and get out of here and tell his buddies
no don't go in there man yeah so but this next set of rings is the urn pistons is the good
set right it is it is so they do have the what it's not called chambered is it oh you're talking
about the gas ported pistons are gas ported now the pistons are gas ported now
and there's a different ring package so and they do say that these rings don't stick like the old ones
but we've been using them for three years
and only the last 68 months to maybe even a year we've had problems
I don't know I don't I don't know but yes uh which speaking of we probably need to order
some spare stuff which we have a rack we've gone through a lot of stuff I hate to to bust into a
rack oh we have a couple spare racks I have no well there are spoken for though one of them's
got to go in the we have two spare racks and then I have two fresh sets of pistons over there
but we got no rings
so oh yeah no we got we have a ton of rings none of them are going to work with these new pistons
and every time I asked brandon what could I use he explained it to me and I still just I just couldn't
grasp what he was saying yeah did you did you understand what he was saying what you could use
because a lot of people say you could use some of the ring I understood what he said he said we
could reuse the oil rings but they we've tried that and it won't the oil rings are the ones that
stick yeah so the new ring package is supposed to fix that yeah I don't know
know at some point I didn't want to ask him again yeah because the communication wasn't there
yes so I just okay let's ask him when things are going good I just said okay but I need to ask
him now so that I get him before the next he's gonna be at martin michigan though guys so I'm
pretty happy about that um and we do have the brand new motor in the car we do we finally got
blues actual motor in set up as an mh7 now so that means I got new heads new camshaft
got a different intake which really messed up our whole pipe situation just the front of the
intake just the front of the intake which uh yeah anyways so we got to build a pipe for it and then
blues ready other than that blues ready it's sitting there it's waiting on a new pipe to go
from the blower to the intake we have not fired it up yet we have not I don't even
know that it has fluids in it it does we pulled the converter apart
freshened it up uh redid all the boost lines
we've been I've been focusing on the tree I've been practicing a lot on the tree guys so
we'll see how that you know yeah see how that plays out so so martin which you know our our
last race was at us 131 in martin michigan our next race is at us 131 in martin michigan
this last race was wild because it was a combination of two series it was the radio
outlaws from duck and and dillard or whoever's all a part of that and then Keith uh midwest drag
series there were some for real heavy hitters there like so heavy that the midwest series
et record fell two or three times ryan said it at one ryan did set it and then page set it
page set it and then paul gargis ended up with it yep so hey it was it was and we knew that yeah
we said when we got there whoever wins this race man that that's something to be you did
so hold your head up you did something it was like a mini winter series yes it was and and
that's what hurts me so bad is because it was a winter series you know it was like a winter
series and we failed yes um man yeah people were hauling ass like
i mean let's just get into jake mcneil was hauling ass and uh he was he was and then then uh then
something happened so we were already out and he because we were in the second chance race when it
happened or are we the past that it happened was the past that we raced um gustafson yeah
yeah the the it wasn't the coast car right yeah oh yeah so how many did we go a couple of rounds
or no we went one round and then we had to race gustafson in the second round he didn't even end
up winning it nope he won i forgot the uh that one car right the old look at that one car for sure
the the skinny kid car the white and gold oh did he really get cool yeah is it i like that car
it was cool when they had it on paddles at one time that old cutlass yeah i didn't i didn't know
that that uh what kind of car is that it looked like a 50s whatever the one that had the mercury
the one that the really cool paint job and then they made it black yeah i didn't even know that
had that old paint job on it yeah yeah yeah the maryl maryl when it was the maryl maryl car
that's what it was it was oh man unbelievable but um so so yes i didn't know what happened
and then literally it came down to the finals and they were like jake mcneal is not going to
race in the finals well they announced the finals what they announced the finals of
erin wells and and gargis right and erin wells literally didn't win one single or he didn't
make one single pass i don't think he actually won a round like we've been there oh we've been
there and this is not a dig on him no not at all he was at the right place
time and capitalizing hey he even went red on one pass he just didn't go as red as who was it was
at page i don't remember maybe maybe i don't i don't know it's been a long week since that
but
luck was just on his side how many times have we said you got to get some luck on your side if
they would have finally figured that car out and then ran good hey more power to him yep you know
like i've said to win big races you got to have a little bit of luck he had the little bit of luck
so he took all of ours i think too somebody took ours yeah but uh so i guess and and
everybody probably knows all this by now since it's been this long week but
coming from them they changed the blower well when they changed the blower they left that
pulley on that blower that blower was from when they were running some outlaw stuff or something
like that allegedly that's what happened yeah uh and as far as his tuner goes uh
snider yes brandon i don't really know him uh i've heard he's not a fan of ours and i'm okay
with that you don't have to be a fan of ours i'm totally fine with that he goes about his way we
go about our way i've never crossed paths with him because we haven't ever needed to yeah uh
obviously the car was running well all weekend he was on the light and that car was fast he's
always he was gonna be a problem we've talked about that before he's he's always on the light
and even since then he's he's going rounds oh you missed him sorry he's going rounds
this guy's gonna come over here his life is gonna he don't even know he messed up should
stay over here you're done pal so got your way see so
obviously he can tune you know uh i mean he's been three forties like he at one point he held
the door car record i didn't even know that he's been like 348 or something like that well
he has got jacob mcnill's program turned around to be honest with you uh
jacob was pretty upset about it uh he ended up calling me afterwards and asking me you know
what would you do and i said what you got distance distance yourself if you truly say
he puts you in a bad position bottom line whoever i said you can't tell me that your
tuner didn't know yeah like to go from the bigger pulley to the smaller pulley which would have been
to go from what's legal there 92 98 92 okay so 92 and he went to 98 i think he went to one
no it wasn't one it was a 90 i'm pretty sure it went to 98 okay so but they say it's like
four or five pounds or six pounds i mean that's quite a bit that will maybe not that will tear
your motor up because you will have to refuel for that much more more power yes and he did say
that it was hurt yeah afterwards said they got a couple of pistons uh so i don't know i
i wasn't there i truly believe that jacob didn't know he's 100 the epitome of just a driver and
that's not a dig at him what at all he gets out of his car and i see him on that scooter
everywhere like he does not work on that he even told me that he said man show you know i don't tune
i don't know anything about that i get in the car and i drive and i was like man you do yeah i mean
you do he also almost hit the tree took the took the tree out of that burn down there talking to
diller and i was like oh my god yeah so but anyways the cat could cut a light man and he's
consistent with it so uh that was a big deal so as far as i know uh he doesn't get any points
i'm pretty sure they stripped him of all of his points from that race
which that's the only race he's been to this year because he didn't make the first one
yep and i told him i said hey man it sucks uh the the tuner puts you in a bad position there
yeah like what are you gonna do and he's like man my stomach's in knots i'm just upset about it
i truly believe that he didn't know but at the end of the day you still gotta own it
whether or not i mean you're running that program right yeah yeah no it's his
so if you're running that program you have to that that's on you you take the blame for it
like you have to say hey guys i get it i'm gonna eat this one yeah but you know how it is man drag
racing if you get deemed a cheater man it's bad once a cheater always a cheater man that's that's
that's what they say that's that's a lot of people say it though a lot of people say it so so that
happened um he didn't get to go to the finals erin wells went instead to face gargis paul gargis
and then paul gargis set the record yep and won the race man ryan did amazing at that race he did
they don't have a lot of time on that car and he had no tuner on property yep so
he's the dude out there just doing all the wrong stuff that tuners that would tell tuners not to
do it and he's out there doing it and it was going don't do that i was working yeah don't
don't do that ryan's going i'm gonna do it you know and it worked you know
you know it did how did he end up losing oh he's he hit that he struck the tire against
gargis he did he did yeah on the probably the one time that he he told he said though he said
look it's probably not gonna go and i was like man i mean you ain't smoked the tires yet yeah and
then bam and boom he did but for him to run the numbers that he was running out there and we're
over there just struggling i guess just funny to watch brandon watch him because brandon just
smiled and was like damn you know he goes look hey he told me he said man hey i'm proud of him
you know yeah he's doing it him and steve both like they were both yep he said he's doing it
you know so for him to go in and do what he was doing it's it was pretty cool yep so
ryan's leading the points over there now we're in second place i think we're down 19 to him uh
erin wells yeah he went more rounds than us guys so all he needed to do is go one more round than
us well he went more rounds any qualified better i thought that qualifying didn't matter unless you
now you get you get 25 if you qualify number one you get 25 points yes and then number two is 24
number three is 23 so we qualified 12 we didn't hardly get shit i didn't know that i thought you
just got pointed he was number one qualified because we were number one qualified the first one
yep so 16 gets one or however it works out okay that makes more sense i was fixing to say
look this fly sees his dead buddy sitting right here i left his corpse out there for everybody
to see yep and he's still over here like i'm not gonna kill him just like if you shoot a coyote
you're hanging on a fence so the other ones know so i i assumed that
he he only needed to go one more round than us to catch us in points but then we still had the
number one qualifier over on him but hell he qualified for or something so he was on wasn't
that far behind us anyways yep so then he did better than us and he out qualified us so now
he is leading the points by how much i think 19 18 or okay so a couple rounds yeah we need to go a
couple rounds more than him at this next race and qualify and we need to qualify better we need to
qualify to see man i like i like point setups like that like nha gets even more involved because
literally every every everything you do matters like there's points for low et of the round there's
points for low qualifier there's there's there's points for everything so literally everything
you do matters yeah yeah i think that i think that's cool well everything's fresh brandon's
going to be at the at the next race uh and we've said it in the past and i'm still going to stand
on it i like my chances when brandon's on the property no doubt about it we were going to go
test uh obviously we have not had time but i don't know if brandon had some availability
because i don't believe that he was gonna make it to this race and now he is i don't know there
there's there's nothing else going on on top of it was there something going on and then some
certain organization that has been cutting races um is not going on now man you know what it could
have been i can't remember i can't be there i don't even care honestly i'm just happy that he
can make it for sure um no for sure i always always like when brandon's on the property um
we've we've raced with him a lot this year like normally we don't get to race with brandon a lot
because he's always got stuff scheduled like nha and pdra and whatever else he's he's doing but
this year we've we've been able to i don't think we've had a race without him
not this year but we haven't done a whole lot we've done one nha race and one our two
midwest promos two midwest promos and then the world series and snowbirds or whatever yeah so
yeah always always like when he's on the property man we need to get him on here someday
has he ever done a podcast with anyone i don't know i got questions for him i need to know
need to know yeah so but anyways that's that's kind of uh midwest the next one is the end of
this month end of july like three weeks from now so uh our our actual next
race is uh the next outlaw syndicate race at darlington oh god it's gonna be hot darlington
in july darlington south carolina in july um it's not ideal i don't i don't know which one of
y'all three came up with with that it wasn't on me had to have been carson man it's gonna be hot
god it's gonna be hot anytime i think about the hottest track i've ever been to it is 100
darlington what he's done a podcast he has he did a podcast five years ago with who some guy
named robert marbury marbury never heard of him he's young he's learned a lot since then oh yeah
and then he has won seven years ago with louis louis was bald huh shaved his head yeah seven
years ago louis de Leon i mean it was just a little like quick like at pri thing
wow he's bald you know i kind of remember that yep uh anyways darlington in july it's not ideal
but our last outlaw syndicate race at uh sexton we uh we broke everything
my truck is for real broke for real for real your truck uh has some some parts that are never
going to be used again they just i mean there's nothing left of that motor that can be used
except for stuff on the outside that sucks the lifters the lifters i think are okay
probably should just change them the the crankshaft camshaft the block
the head it's all bad the head it's all bad um luckily sean has been kind enough to uh
let me get the motor out of the burnout truck it's it's not hopefully that'll hold up not the smartest
thing you've done in the most recent times we've done a lot of dumb stuff it's one of those things
that uh it'll hold up or it won't yeah i'll go easy on it i'll go back down to six oh and uh i i
think i'll have to beat the crap out of that thing to run five thirties but maybe not i don't
we'll see we'll see what kind of power it makes yeah yeah um but then we also we had some problems
with the 55 which was kind of uncharacteristic of that car that car usually just you get it out of
because it's just numerous passes at 28 30 pounds of boost and it's a lot of timing pulled out of it
but that still doesn't change the fact that we've got that many passes on it with that much boost
so uh probably should have done a uh after we put it all back together a leak down or compression
or something just have a baseline but i think it'll be all right so we actually got that finished
up today and throw it in the trailer and just assume that everything is good until it's time
to make a pass it's gonna be good um so it's ready to go uh i'm gonna go home
tonight and i'm gonna get the motor out of the burnout truck and get it apart so that we can
put it back together so that i can then put it in my truck because there's some stuff i've got to do
to my truck to make that all work like i got to build a new intake pipe um i'll change the balancer
out oil pan so i don't have to weld on yours uh just a few little odds and ends but no no big
deal i'm gonna put it on he's gonna use the long block yeah he's gonna swap it to methanol because
that's what that truck has been on doesn't really matter but it needs every chance that it can get
it's just a little 5 3 versus the 4 27 that came out of his truck so um plus that's a big old turbo
to spool which your truck does it with ease yeah it's it doesn't matter it's there so so everyone
i've kind of talked to about it they don't really seem worried about it spooling a circle deed did
send me a new stator for it just to kind of help so because you know going it's basically 100 cubic
inches that i'm losing yeah so send me a new stator every bit of 75 cubic inch yeah well it
this new one's a 3 32 and it was a 4 27 so that was a 3 32 yeah
it's a 3 80 bore was 27 yeah damn near 100 90 yeah 96 96 damn so
yeah i was thinking it was the 6 0 but it is not it's a 5 3 yeah so it'll be interesting to see
what it does uh i've wanted to build a small bore motor just because in the past just to kind of see
but we're we're finna find out so get it all put back together and ready to go get it on the dyno
make sure everything's good but aint been beating on that truck for a while so yeah it's one of those
things that uh we needed to pull it out and just check everything anyways the mains are really
gonna tell us what that thing's been doing uh it does have a stock crank in it and turning that
procharger yeah that's sometimes that's not good a lot of times those those cranks will will they'll
flex oh yeah uh so the middle bearings will take the brunt of that flex uh whenever we replace those
bearings we'll know so yep so other than that i think it'll be all right uh the last couple
outlaw syndicate races have been pretty good uh big big turnouts lots of racers lots of fans
um everything's been going good uh it's it's starting to get some traction
that we were hoping that it would get and honestly i think that it's about to start getting more
traction uh the the stuff that pinky and them were doing i don't know if they're gonna be doing
that anymore who knows it's all seems like it's kind of up in the air uh they have said something about
they clearly have made an announcement that they're canceling a couple of races
i may have heard a little something about they're gonna be canceling some more races but i don't
know that ain't we don't run that that ain't got nothing to do with us yeah but the people who were
running that are gonna be looking for a place to go well i've heard that they've already been making
calls hey what do you all got going on over there is that 20 000 for real yep and it i mean that
20 000 is for real there's there's 20 000 up for grabs at every one of these races for just a small
tire just for the small tire not to mention the 5000 to win 530 not to mention that i think it's
2500 to win 60 1500 for 70 and then i think another thousand for daily driver something like that
i mean you're gonna have to get your own ice we do not other than that come on out
we'd love to have you there is a car show though there's a car show the car show's been doing good
they have the last one and i really like it there was there was and the people like it too you know
so yeah hopefully everything's gonna be good it's definitely gonna be hot i don't mind going to
darlington though it's just man let's do it in november this time of year you know it's hot yeah
let's uh let's put a pin in that for next year Carson if you're watching this let's let's consider
darlington for like february or november yeah we'll just leave florida and go up for the first
outlaw syndicate race man when it comes down to it like we have a lot of cars like with me you
hopefully before too long we'll have a chivelle going which we did dino it guys headed in the
right direction headed in the right direction uh we took it down the road the other day and
blasted off a pass i put it on the chip and everything uh probably need to test that thing
pretty soon um ben billy and then you got ryan uh and then the hobby the car that ricky's been driving
you know uh and then carson's car is coming around that car's pretty cool yeah so it's orange but it
is orange that's kind of his thing now i guess i remember when he got his first orange when he
hated it and he wanted to change it and and now he's just embracing the orange i mean you know
do what you gotta do that he's he's kind of embracing the whole uh speedo cheeto thing so
yep amen do what you gotta do but i think that the outlaw syndicate's starting to get some traction
just like we knew that it would uh i think these last couple of races are gonna be big we got two
left on the schedule for sure but we know that there's gonna be three so we've actually had
a lot of people ask recently about the race at us 60 that's not happening it's not happening we
are scheduled to race in hra that weekend at brainard yes so the race at us 60 is not happening
i i believe i believe that it's gonna be at uh
like of those arcs okay we don't know when yet though or do you know when i think it's gonna
be on halloween i think you told me i think it's gonna be halloween weekend
whatever that's not sat in stone yet but i believe that that's what it is so before seema
that can't be right because key oh no keys is on seema
just look at the outlaw syndicate page and we'll yeah we'll we'll update you but the race at us
60 is not happening for those of you that have been asking i bet we've had 20 comments or messages
in the last week about the race there it the race at us 60 it's it's it's not happening sucks but
yeah you know we will be at brainard racing an hre car that weekend though so come on out
with i heard that oh oh oh you got another one ah put me in a bad spot there
man my legs are all filthy just yeah like i've been working today or something um
um
got joe so both them corpses right there for everybody else to see yeah let your buddies know um
yeah no the the the that will send a good deal it's been gaining traction like shon said i like
the people are coming out so the this last race at syston was was cool man because
we had some bad rain come through and we had to race late late yeah and dude there were so many
people in the stands at three o'clock in the morning was when nick was racing in the finals
i'm i'm holding up the checks i'm not holding them but i'm taking pictures with everybody
afterwards and it's like four o'clock in the morning yes all i wanted to do was go home
like because that was that was it after that we got some time off and it was rough but we made it
yeah we had planned on getting up early that morning and heading home and uh man once we
got to bed at four o'clock we didn't end up leaving till about noon the the people came
they showed up it was it was amazing these these little tracks are everything that we said that
it was gonna be yep because that's man it it it gives us more one-on-one with all the the fans
racing the 55 at some point i'll get more competitive with that car i can still use it
for other things like cutting lights you know oh yeah it helps you like that button and stuff
because if you can get really good cutting the light in that car that doesn't react as fast as
your promod then you'll be yeah you know you'll be really good in the promod yeah so uh
i know that over in the darlington area there's lots of small tire cars around there oh yeah
and from what i understand the small tire is going to be where it's at at this next one yeah yeah
good i i want to see more i want to see more small tire cars for sure because that's a
that's a it's a lot of money to be paying out i enjoy watching the small tire stuff
yes i just want to see somebody give scott some competition yeah i think this next race they will
so um but also whenever i watch all those cars it makes me wish i had the og there yeah
but didn't didn't you think about how much work but then i think about
taking away from the the fans and taking away all my time and then it becomes a job
and then that defeats the purpose of everything that we tried to do here oh
get him man oh no those he wounded i can't see that's not i don't think that's a fly
don't think that's a fly sir i find that hard to believe that i missed him
so we've touched on it a couple times here and and not
i don't i don't really want to talk about the the cancelling of the races and everything but
with what the hra has going on with their triple crown stuff like the the the promod
i think promod's where it's at anyways right now i love promod i've always loved promod since
i was a little kid my dad used to take me to watch promod stuff i i love promods um someone
has a chance to win a million dollars right only one person has that chance only one person has a
chance and it's the same person that had a chance in the winter series and i'll be honest with y'all
i hope he wins it i do so so jason harris man he uh i don't know the dude like i i don't i've met
him but like i've never really said and talked to him i i think he's a cool dude he's he's got
it going on right now in the car he's he's you know he's got brandon as his tuner and like their
program is just kind of on point and right now he is he's the only person that can win a million
dollars he's the guy to beat at every race when he shows up he's the guy to beat yeah and now like
man i hope he does it i hope he does too i hope he does it and i hope that they have the rest of
those races just so that i could see him so he can do it so so uh you know the winter series
this year the drag illustrated winter series it was the first of its kind to do if you win all
three races you can win a million dollars well uh the the other people here have adopted that same
deal and if you win these three triple crown races you can win a million dollars well he won
the opener of that and uh and won the opener of the winter series he did so now they have so so the
next two races are all in one spot at maple grove they're doing a double header like keith is doing
at oh really i didn't know it's a thing um so they're gonna have one race
qualify it run it and then the third race they'll qualify it and run it also at maple grove i mean
i feel like if you give them that many shots on a track if he can win that first leg
of of that weekend holy shit man yeah i mean i get it winning winning eight rounds in a weekend
is gonna be tough yeah but but if anybody can do it yeah i mean they have so many passes on that car
he won that first race and the worst light he cut all weekend was 019
that's tough that's tough with having a car that they can go out there and drop a
mid 50 on you at any given time yep and then he lost this last race on a whole shot he did
but it still was a good light what was it a 020 something or maybe even a a low low 30 i can't
remember i think it was a 20 to a 15 i thought something like that i can't remember but i don't
know that it was that close but yes he still cut a good light it still would have been a light that
i would have been proud of if i got a whole shot off of that light that he cut i'd have got out of
the car i went hey what are you gonna do you know but man that's how competitive it is
oh yeah no pro mod it's not um everyone out there has the same mindset there's
in in a field of 16 there are 16 killers it's not you know your first round guy isn't a guy that
you can go out there and try something it's not something that you can if you sleep on the tree
number 16 is taking you out absolutely um absolutely it's just it's so competitive everyone's
got the same stuff everyone you know basically we share tuners you know everyone yeah there's
there's probably 567 top tuners out there that they they share all the cars so
it's just it's so competitive so there's no room at that point yeah it comes down to a lot of the
driver yeah it does and the crew tearing something up yes because look guys
believe it or not i'm gonna throw this out there and and i say this for myself also but
just so that you guys understand this we show you guys everything that we do when we mess up
we're not the only guys that show we may be some of the few that show everything but
every team out there has fuck ups just like we do oh yeah no hey every team out there like
i get to feeling bad sometimes i like i don't like messing up i don't like when you're like
disappointing brandon well yeah that that too but like i don't like when things go wrong because
now i take a lot of pride in in what we do with these cars and uh man when something goes wrong i
don't like it but man it happens to everybody it does everybody every you you hear the stuff
going through the pits on man what happened to that and then you hear yeah one of the crew
guys did this yes or the driver did this or you know this right here got left loose yeah
they had the motor apart last weekend and they put this back in wrong yep like wasn't it wasn't
that the reason that all that oil got any jacob's tire was the overflow drain came out and that's
what went under his tire i don't know i didn't hear that no because there was that wasn't i know
doc used to do that all the time just getting loose there was oil under his tire oh there was
yeah no something happened yeah but some of that is but the rods were still in the motor because
it was running so it couldn't have been a rod kick you know yeah and then uh look at jason collins
steering wheel comes off in the burnout yeah and he about takes out the tree and then he won that
and then he won the race that's another dude little things like that just happen that was you
know it's part of it that he won he won against carolina kid um i thought it was i think so
that carolina kid went quad fours quad zeros yes and won that race but he won did he is that the
nha race that uh collins won did he beat him in the final i think so i'm pretty sure i wasn't sure
quad zero is insane quad zeros in eliminations yeah in the finals not of eliminations
for what 125 thousand dollars or something is what it what it was and for him to be confident
enough to just go for it just something like that he just ah yep i wonder if he had anything in the
box i'm sure he uh he is a light he is he is and a lot of guys are nowadays
and that's what that's what it takes you know that's the reason i've been trying so hard so when he
says trying hard we you know we've we've got to practice right here you guys have seen us
use them you see me win at the that one os s race no big deal uh but we've got it set up here in the
shop and every morning or afternoon or whatever shawn's hitting the light 10 15 minutes a day
just nothing but letting go of the button so yep so whatever whatever you can do we'll see how that
translates over yeah it's got to do something i would assume so i mean that's what jason collins
told me that he does he said five 10 minutes every morning whenever i wake up i hit the tree
yep yep that's got to do something that's a that's another guy that that can drive i mean he's
making huge noise in hra right now like big big yep with that old screw combo that just can't
hang you know yeah i'm so tired hearing the screw they just keep adding weight to us yeah and then
that's right there and win a race yeah and then the screw guys are we just can't run with them
yeah come on man yeah it's funny yeah i know that who's the one guy that was sandbagging that
didn't make a pass press round or whatever the guy who put a pro line him oh no no no it's not
i don't think it's it's still not a pro line he just put a hearts charger on his car you're
talking about uh decker decker yeah said that he's gonna show everybody how they've been everyone's
been saying everybody's been sandbagging he's going to show everybody so i think they've been
64 so far it's not really showing everybody yet not saying that they can't oh you know but
uh a man to show up to a race but to say something is there that's pretty insane yeah but to say
that everybody else is sandbagging that's pretty insane too that's that's a big claim and then
claim that you're gonna show everybody yeah so that's that's a huge claim yeah he was screw right
yeah they they still have a they've always been screwed and then and then they put their screw car
in outlaw yeah and it was pretty fast so they're they're they're old car i guess they had a car built
at one point that's the car kai has kai's yeah is that car for sale is kai i heard kai was selling
that car or somebody's not selling it larry's selling it yeah larry larry told kai that he was
only going to drive it for a year from from my understanding yeah and uh i don't know i i didn't
see any kind of deal they got going on i just know that that's what uh pretty sure kai's even
told me that that that car was for sale and that he's just driving it until it gets sold
i mean they've they've done well with it that car comes off the trailer and it's fast every single
time it wheels in the air and 60 flat off the trailer pretty much everywhere he goes yeah i mean
he did it he was at 131 and uh off the trailer he was 60 or a 61 yep kai's deadly on the light too
man oh yeah i said i mean you treat him at that last race i didn't whatever it counted no he didn't
so and there was that poor brand new car um pablo car or whatever or is a hose other one
yep yep uh there was a big no prep race this last weekend small tire deal down in texas there
was over abalone and i was i was so glad to see somebody win without one of those stupid
fucking wings dude so i was what a month ago or so chase takes the and for anybody that doesn't
chase will mack is he's he's the hit the hit man is what car he has and it's
actually bobby decody's old car uh his mpk car he took it and man he's just been knocking heads
with that thing man he did he did there's there's no doubt about it man he's just been knocking
heads with that car since he's got it done and well it was a pro charge car it was pro charged
yeah when he got it from bobby and he was doing well with it and then all of a sudden now it's
got a screw on it and i thought man why would he change to a screw but i see i kind
of see why it was pretty screw combo is pretty and small tire it is it's there's more than
which still blows my mind to think that you need that much power on a small tire and they're using
it all it's insane man it's unbelievable what you can do on a small tire nowadays i mean literally
a year ago if you could run 20s you could mollywap some fools now if you run 20s you might get
past first round i know that's where we're at i know i know it's we haven't tested since then
you know i mean we could go as fast as him if we tested but we haven't no but man i thought like
it was a true no prep race even though they prepped the track for a week and scraped it and
but there was there was a lot of yeah there was a lot of heavy hitters there no there was you
know what i mean so for him to win that race that's saying something oh yeah i know the the kasey max's
the jason kentu i am not discrediting this this that race at all because man it was just heavy
hitter heavy there was a lot of fast cars there and dude in that truck uh that
green truck that man will oh dude that thing was fast that thing so it outran that little s10
that i saw the round before and i was dude that s10's back yeah hey and then that green truck's
i mean it's a twin turbo big block but still it's a truck full-size truck he's the guy that
sort of went to uh i mean it's got truck body better yeah the s10 was the one that went to
cletus's rural drive all-wheel drive and then came to thunder valley oh it was and then won that
backside deal that lowered black s10 with the yeah the like primer black yeah okay he was the one
that was that cletus's race and then whoever he outran the round before that i was like oh my
god like i didn't see it i was rolling i'm not saying either one of them aren't fast
but the biggest shock that i saw was kentu getting outran by kasey max i was and it was there was
gap like there was probably two or three cars there was there was every bit of two cars yeah
that i i like both those guys but that sucks to see i'm gonna be honest with you like i nothing
nothing against kasey max but i like kentu i'm a fan of kentu i've always been a fan of that truck
and uh i don't know like they got an ls or that now don't they no you sure kentu's truck
do they have this i don't know i talk about kentu's truck yeah i don't know i'll look at
man that'd be news to me i always thought i just had a big block hey same old block we used to have
it did but i think he rebuilt everything all the guys in the comments whenever that green truck
won were like five coyote on top and i was like dude that's a big block to
everybody yeah people are stupid look that up see if he's got a ls jason kentu i can text him and
ask him now he'll probably won't get an answer no he'll text he'll text you yeah but i can look it
up right now that um oh he didn't have a front clip on it that's what i'm saying oh okay maybe
just where he put the coils at threw me off oh he put on a valve cover they're on the cover
they're on they're on the valve is it our old valve covers i don't know we had remember we had
coilovers on yeah coils on i know we did it to mess with people yeah
no he's got the hood on it doesn't show any of the motor anywhere it's got a hood with no front
clip well he only had he only run a front clip oh and that truck looks even better now that it's
white oh i liked it purple really no way they don't like purple
that that intake looks like a big block intake and it might be it maybe that's
just where he put his coils we've done it before yeah i just said you still have a big block in that
truck i mean
it the the runners are they're not sime's runners like a small block chevy so but ls is
the same as what a big block is yeah so
who else is out there i mean jimmy dale was racing stefko's car jimmy dale had stefko's car
and that car that car's always fast it's it's always fast and jimmy dale can drive i thought it
was a pro charge car because it had the hole in the front but it was a nitrous car it's not it's
always been nice i was talking about i believe yeah billy was there kasey max was there uh
hammerhead uh old dude hammerheads uh the corvette the corvette yeah that used to be uh
rubens car he's the one that went to the finals
there's three of them it's three dead three dead ones there three dead flies so
i don't know who's driving that car now but they said that it was from
the same camp yes i'd i'd seen a lot of people say that chase bought that car also but i don't
know that that's the case i think his tuner was just tuning that car also but either way that that
man it sucks in the finals to see that because the light just didn't come down no it was plenty
of time no matter if oh i thought they did it on purpose i thought they both do the light just
didn't come down like hey and you know it is man it's time to go yeah oh they both went red yeah
because i don't think the light ever dropped no so they both went red chase just waited longer than
what he did i forgot that green truck beat uh crazy horse oh yeah everyone was
big riding crazy horse there yeah uh which truck the green truck yeah yeah but crazy horse also
crossed center which he was behind yeah but he was always drive it's it's gonna get out of shape
well i mean that green trucks all the drive too you know i know but he got out of shape too he
was at the wall he kept driving it jimmy doe got really close to the wall too on his first
so there was there was a lot of fast cars there and and i'm sure i'm leaving some
fast people out but you know that's the way it goes what's that that's the tree
oh i was like yep that's it
oh yeah i know hey i didn't i don't care who you are that's plenty of time for that to come down
yeah and it sucks on the finals for a 100000 or whatever yeah 70000 whatever
it was i'm sure that they had done well split before that well it was same cars i mean so it
was 95 000 but you know for first and second place so then i i heard they had chopped it up i'm sure
anyways so i mean man i i don't i don't blame him no you got to yeah so but it was i i'm not a fan
of the big wings it is what it is it was good to see a car that doesn't have 18 inches of travel in
the front end it doesn't need all that in my opinion yeah um and again i'm not out doing it so
it's tough for me to be a sidelined quarterback here you know i think but um but it doesn't have
all that travel chase this car just works they've got that deal lined out and congrats to him man
if if it was a big block it wouldn't have coils right coils why wouldn't our big block did our
hymny does no i get that i just you know distributor
no game sync you take all that out okay well i just there's a there's them pulling ganttu's
truck up and it's got coils with you know it was it was cool i think there was like 50 cars there
wasn't it uh i know they were expecting more i think it was 50 something cars i think kraken
went out first round i thought no yeah no yeah he lost to uh he he just he's right here is racing
todd spears uh todd spears went out first round okay then jimmy dale beat him second round yes
jimmy dale beat that's right that's right he did yeah uh yeah kraken went out bane was there second
round eric bane he got beat man his car looks good he just got unfortunate draw
first round yes he still made a good pass yeah no he made a decent pass there was 24 pairs so
yeah 48 cars yeah i know they were expecting more like so so the thing
like the i guess the question i might have is why have a race like that in july in texas and
not to mention they they were scheduled to one round friday night and then they were scheduled
to start at eight o'clock on saturday i got home at 11 and they hadn't even started yet
really yeah i got home from getting rained out at the lake and all that stuff get home holy crap
get in inside set down and i turned it on uh tickle fits or whatever was on turned it on
and i see somebody go it's about time and i'm like oh shit they're fixing to start racing and
literally i waited about 20 more minutes and they started wow so i like you know that that was my
question though is why i have a big race like that in july when it's so dadgum hot and then i
got to reading on it and i guess that's kind of what they want they want the hot track the hot
bear track because it just adds to the elements of you like something you come around it's hot
like it's hot the fans don't want to come out when it's hot the racers don't want to come out when
it's hot like i don't know like obviously they still did they they still paid out all the money but
how many more racers could you have got in september you know something i don't know
yeah no that tree took forever who's that i don't know probably uh fed x or somebody
oh yeah with no muffler uh and the squeaking brakes yeah that's 100 the fed x truck yep um
let's see what else do we got so aiden we finally got aiden's blazer done it's done done he he's
taking it to a couple competitions now one a couple competitions uh the local here at uh
el Reno uh small town weekend uh he won that deal it did great uh caught it on fire a couple
times yeah just once twice when was the second time i thought two burnouts at
el Reno with the wind was blowing it back just one time i caught on fire oh the first time i kicked
this the first time i kicked it sideways went like 30 seconds the second time i caught on fire
third time i didn't do a burnout because like i didn't do my third burnout and then my final
kick sideways again this guy's seeing his dead buddies over here
four of them idiots so then aiden go see what's happening out there see if that's uh that guy or
see if uh uh the heat and air guy's gonna be here so he loaded that rig up and went to Alberta Canada
and he told him it's a long way up there he learned what it's like to be on the road
burns that i was like to be the responsible one yeah oh just yelling on the phone yeah
so how was the trip driving driving up to Canada the the mini p is awesome it is it is a cool
driving that thing yep but i have not drove it since we went to vegas in november last year
and i had forgot where the gas tank looks up to yeah ran that unit right out of fuel didn't the
gas gauge don't work i was like no that gas gauge works pimpin so he kept telling me dad the gas
gauge doesn't work so i filled it up for me before he left so it was topped off plenty of fuel to get
to Denver obviously made it further than that it did make it further than that um so
right before he got into Denver he pulled over and he filled any field up and he said dad
fuel gauge is just stuck it a little over a quarter right no no a little over e
it was a little over a quarter the first time and then the second time it was a little over e yeah
so uh for the record this tank this this this thing has it's got a 50 gallon and on
each side well that's what it was like when we got it under the bed of the truck
this really sucks to put fuel in these things you got a little trap door on the side
that's maybe uh 68 inches by eight inches square something like that and it's got a little
door on the side then you got to stick that whole thing up in there pull the gas cap off
and then fuel it up that way yes so at some point it really sucked because Phantom would have to pull
over twice for one time that i'd have to pull over in the big peak i could drive about six hours if
i let it get empty so we ended up going and we replaced one whole side that was just uh steps
and a and a couple of storage compartments and we didn't ever use anyways because couldn't get them
over because there was rubber stripping yeah there's all messed up yeah so we replaced that with 120
gallon tank and then now we have the steps on the tank like you know like a real semi yep i love it
i love it and it's something that i want to do to the other side also we just haven't and the other
side's gonna be a little bit trickier because then we're gonna have to get a battery box battery box
and then just maybe put a 90 gallon over there or something yeah so after the first fuel up
Aiden tells me dad the fuel gauge it's not moving it's not going anywhere so i was like oh that's
weird maybe maybe it's just stuck yeah i said man as you drive it'll probably you know catch up yeah
well he ended up making it past Casper Wyoming and i filled up in billings and ended up filling
up no no i filled up in buffalo and i made there you go i made it the other 30 minutes
to billings that's right you you filled up in buffalo uh and then you and you said passenger
tank didn't take any it was already full yeah and you put 40 gallons in the drivers
and so in my head i went huh well you didn't drive but three or four hours from the last
time you filled up so obviously the big tank is the main feed and the little tank on the driver
side it just pumps into the bigger tank so i thought well it's it was empty so all you used was 40
gallons well hey bear in mind the fuel gauge is still not working and at this point that unit's
down at e isn't it there's a little over e like just a little over e in between quarter so then
about an hour out of billings and this is after you had the blowouts no this was this was longer
than an hour i made it i was in uh he had had the blowouts changed already because he was yeah
yeah no i was it's only it's a couple hours from billings to well i ran out of big
i ran out of diesel i ran out of diesel 45 minutes south of great falls great falls that's it yeah
it's only a couple hours from billings to great falls yeah but yeah yeah and i had to have been
coasting on fumes for the last 30 45 well because i because it died it wouldn't die it it wouldn't i
wouldn't i didn't have any gas like i had the power he had a dead bottle he had a dead pedal
and oh here's another here's another ballsy one and so obviously that yellow check engine light was
fuel fuel rail fuel rail yeah low pressure in the fuel rail yeah so he also about casper had a blowout
yes and then you changed the tire and you called me and you said dad hey i got it taken care of i had
a blowout uh you handled all of that but you said while you were looking and you were changing the
tire that none of them looked that good and so then so then that made me start thinking man when's
the last time we put tires on this thing and it had been a while america's list so i needed to know
yeah when the last time we put tires on so i had the aiden asked the the guy who changed the tires
out in billings when's the last you know what was the date code on them tires and it was 2020
before we went down to texas for the last america's list man but you should have seen the the place
nate had me had to pull into to get those tires changed yeah it was like in the middle of two
big buildings and only like two shop bay doors so i had to take out the entire two lane pull into a
business on the other side of the road and then whip it back into with the gooseneck yeah i only
did i only had to pull forward once but well it's still good all those guys are fans in there
that's weird we got a leak uh huh so so anyways luckily nate is from that area and he knows
everybody there so nate got him set up with the guy for tires which which reminds me man the guy
who came out after he ran out of fuel i still hadn't paid for none of that i ain't heard nothing about
it nate said no he said he's going to get with y'all monday monday's came in past yeah i ain't
heard nothing so i need to reach out to nate and tell him hey holler at that guy and find out what
i owe him anyway so after that adan leaves there and he's got fresh tires on the truck and he left
a day earlier than what he was going to have maybe he was gonna leave like 20 a time and he still
would have made it yeah but he still had plenty of time and i told him hey don't be like me have a
good time stop and see things don't just get there like i do
because that's how i do it so he ended up running out of fuel and i'm thinking to myself
it's very very simple man it's it's got it's got a lift pump it's got an electric lift pump on this
thing we sat there for an hour and a half not knowing it was out of fuel until i called you and i said
yeah so he calls me and i'm thinking how did it actually take you to make the call no no i called
him because i know i call i realized that as i was on the phone with him because i was talking
about things that it might be yeah and i'm getting over there and i'm literally doing one of those
deals where like you put your uh like the captain morgan thing i was i was standing on the passenger
side step that's when he realized oh my god yeah no i'm looking i'm looking at the tank and i see
diesel only i go holy shit and i open it up and it's just yes it's just dust just dust comes out
of it so and i go you know what so bear in mind this is i was it was like how far is is uh great
falls from here how many hour drive is that from here uh it was six it was eight hours from out
great falls montana yeah 18 hours 18 hours ish
19 hours and 57 minutes okay so he made it 19 hours and 50 minutes without ever putting fuel
in that tank man well okay so 19 hours yeah because i'm cautious i'm not bored over any
loads but you filled up the other two twice so 40 gallons and 40 gallons you put 80 gallons
in the small tank and that's all you did to get 19 hours yeah that's not bad so yeah 19 hours
80 gallons i was going 70 miles an hour i'm not doing the math i'm just letting y'all know yeah i mean
that that truck gets six miles of gallons with that trailer so oh i thought calculated
around 10 i don't know no well maybe it's 70 for the record he says dad it's broke down it's just
rolling over it won't start and that's whenever i said well is the the light that came on the dash
is it red or is it orange there's two service engine lights on this truck and me and phantom
have figured this out over the years the hard way yeah red means stop red means you're dummy
you are not going anywhere you're not driving anymore and i'm about to shut this whole unit
down yeah yellow is hey you know you might be thinking about it do some research check this
thing out find someone with a scanner yeah so aiden tells me it's yellow and i'm like oh right
on you may you're good yeah just keep on rolling well well it also didn't help that i made that
left turn but i was also on the brake really hard so i thought maybe i messed something like
something got out of bounds whenever i made the turn it doesn't help whereas as soon as i don't
have any throttle emma in the back goes are we out of fuel when i go no my fucking idiot
and then we made it 30 40 more miles and then did the same thing and i pulled over and i mean
at what point are you looking at the fuel gauge going mad if this thing is on e we could be out
of gas it was on e but well whenever he said the fuel gauge didn't work and we thought we should
have known right because it does it always works i have 100 ran that truck out of diesel out of
diesel pump and then i filled it up but also you told me before i left man i think rides on e forever
it does it 19 hours so so i call Nate again and Nate says okay i know somebody
we're talking to him and they're like okay we're gonna send somebody out and the first people
wanted to dolly the trailer down and tow the truck what that's not happening
like what do you think i'm gonna leave that truck and trailer or that trailer out there
with everything in it that ain't happening yeah so then he said okay we'll just take a duly
and we'll pull the trailer and we'll i said you can't just haul the rig i guess you can't in
montana really you cannot haul the rig with the trailer on in montana do to you like they need
like escorts and stuff yeah huh so he ends up calling me and he goes dad
i just found this other gas lid i've never put gas in this and i was like what yeah now for the
record it's gotta be midnight it was it was late oh no it was 11 we know we broke down at like six
okay you were there for four and a half hours i got back on the road at nine
i don't know it was late when i called me to tell me back on the road at nine
oh no i was dealing with this we were out eating i was trying to eat a good steak and he
ruined my whole dinner i was mowing and you kept calling me he ruined my whole dinner i was out
eating a steak yeah so by the time you got it going it was later than it had to be 10 or
oh well it's probably nine your time yeah so it was at least 10 or 11 here so it's nine or 10
your time you add that hour to his time yeah yeah uh so then because i'm literally laying in bed
yeah and now i keep getting called by you yeah i keep on wondering so then i end up calling this
guy and i said hey he's just out of fuel take take some fuel out there now if it were me
turns out he turned around and went and got fuel but he also went picked up his old lady
well i took longer listen if it were me i would have siphoned the 50 gallons out of the tank
that you filled up for no reason that was just sitting idle on the back of the truck
which we've talked about taking that off before yes we should have yes so now this week we get to
pump that out and then we'll pump it into the other one so
the guy comes out and it takes him forever to get this thing started and i'm just sitting here
going what is the problem it didn't make any sense that it wouldn't pick up prime no so he can't get
it you saw it whenever we were doing it i can't i did i'm not to that point yet yeah so i'm just
wondering what is taking so long whenever i know you can just cycle the key uh the pump runs for
i don't know 20 30 seconds and then you cycle the key off for 10 seconds and then it comes back on
so all you gotta do is cycle the key so in my head this is a 15 minute you put fuel in it
why is he not on the road yet right and of course i'm getting tired sitting here when
watching tv i'm wondering what the problem is and i used to and first off i want to take this
just a second to apologize to my mom for everything that i put her through whenever
she says i can't sleep when you're not at home i need to know you're safe because as a parent
i i would usually just go to sleep right but whenever i gave him the rig and i'm
making sure he's okay and everything is good with the rig that i gave him yeah this was obviously
his fault but still you know like it sucks so
i keep on calling him i couldn't i couldn't not go what are y'all doing now the worst part is
we know that if we would have been there it would have been fine we'd have been back on the road
i thought that too hang on i'll finish the story stuff is different when you're there and you can
troubleshoot it and you can hear things not happening or happening no yes yes for sure
i would have realized real quick something something else ain't right which is exactly
what i realized once he got to canada so finally i told him i said i don't understand a
spray ether and that thing until it starts he goes we don't got no ether i said there's a
mechanic came and picked you up right like he brought his truck and everything right his truck
though this is the obs it was a it was no look it was a single cab obs blue with white two tone
it was sick but it had a utility bed on it hell yeah and he brought uh so he he opened up the one
and it had a big charger on it that he rigged first of all when he pumped it in he had he had a
little pump and then he hooked the tube the power in the ground to his battery charger that was inside
of his truck that was mounted and then he had to mount that battery charger to his battery on his
truck and then his old lady would grab the truck which gave him a voltage and it pumped it in there
and then we kept we're over there cranking on the on the peat the peat dies he backs that obs right
in the traffic then he hooks it up every time we were cranking it the wife's just give it more
voltage and you know it was it was he was a getter done and he pulled down his pulled down
his one side there's one can of brake clean in there and i was like yep so they're using brake
clean which you know i've never been a fan of that anyways man the brake clean just don't work
is good it works not as good it might work it'll work in a it'll work when you're in a pickle
yep but other than that ether is where it's at i know it's tough to get these days but
all my meth buddies are like man you just can't get the good ether anymore man
hey and i can get it ether and you can't get the red phosphorus and ether you just can't find that
stuff anymore man people start locking that stuff down all the co-ops so it i'm still wondering what's
happening yeah i am wondering what is going on finally aint says okay it's running no there's
more to that i mean i was we used his last can of brake clean and it finally like it wasn't doing
nothing it was it was like not running but like it was starting to look like you didn't run batteries
then well that's why we had it hooked up to the battery charger on his truck no bs came through
okay okay so uh yeah that happened but it's probably my fault because i kept trying to turn
it over to see if it would happen so i got more air in it than it needed to be you know keep
turning it over more air comes in at some point that air will go through there if the truck is
running off of it yeah so as soon as it's hard on everything as soon as that can's like running out
of brake clean it finally picks up and then the dude goes oh we're close and then i got then i have
jd hop behind the blazer which is now sideways in the trailer because the straps i guess i mean
you're gonna say they weren't tight but still that thing's gonna shake around uh-huh that jd
crawled back there and then i had jd shimmy in between the side deals and then he found one can
of the blue and red brake clean from like probably og days like it was old like that can't have been
tossed that means it's good yeah and then so we use that some of the brake clean will not work
at all because it is non flammable yeah yeah so then i finally pulled off the boot on the turbo
was this on the boot i pulled off the boot on the turbo and then i finally just he cranked it over
sprayed it twice it would finally it start running it about to die again spray it again pick back up
die again spray it again pick back up and then it finally caught fuel and then it's just pouring
white smoke out of the exhaust you know you know that uh to spray it into the turbo it's gotta go
through the whole intercooler and all that stuff first well yeah but okay that was the best point
to get to that was the closest point we could have got to besides pulling off piping well the other
mechanic told me what are you doing i was like i was gonna he's like don't do that you gotta go
through the intercooler and all that stuff you gotta do it on the up the on outside
side yeah anyways so he made it there he told me he said i made it there that night he yeah i
got it fired up i left it you stopped at great falls which was 40 40 45 minutes away yep you
fueled up and it took the right tank 115 gallons something like that 130 some like well because
i had 55 in it yeah so then i made it you didn't have 55 he took he brought you 55 he brought
so i i need to at least pay for that guy's fuel yeah and then uh and time and all that i made it
three hours three and a half hours whatever it was to the border after that made it right through
on the border no problem the guy was so nice it's crazy that the canadiens are nicer than the
americans coming back through oh yeah no no what yeah no the canadian was nice like he was like i
because i because you and everyone was telling jd and emma how they're just gonna be assholes
and they're gonna tear you usually are emma was shaking in the back and uh he he's smiling the
whole time we go need drugs in the car and i go no sir and he asked jd no sir no sir we did
them all before we got here we threw everything out five miles back yeah and then uh what we couldn't
do yeah and then uh he goes what's in the what or no he didn't even ask was in the trailer he said
what are you doing up north and i said and going to edmonton for a car show and he goes so that's
in the trailer and i said yes sir and then he said where y'all from i said okohoma and then
he asked me for the plate and i said i got it right here on my phone that's right and i told him i
told him i'm gonna make you stupid if you don't know what the tag is i've never once been asked
for the tag going through never yeah i have everything i did i got asked for the tag and
then he said where's it played out of us at gohoma and he goes one last thing i was like
shit he asked me to pull over on the side and then he said y'all y'all sooner's fans said yes sir
and then he goes all right have a good time with canadi and then we pull off oh yeah and then it
was man and then it was just after he tell you to pull pull uh a couple kilometers up the road
or something yeah we pulled uh pull a couple meters up here we finally got going and i was i was
pretty tired and so then we start just if we're playing music like we're watching movies the
whole time we're playing music and everyone's in the car singing i can stay awake and so i
say to wake the whole time made to the hotel at seven a.m i can hear all that by the way
it's just in my ears are real it's okay i made to the hotel at seven a.m checked in at seven
thirty and then i slept till noon then went to the track yeah and then y'all flew in that night
at ten o'clock so when we got there he said dad there's still something wrong with the peat uh it
sounds like what did he say yeah that was five hours sounds like there's somebody under the hood
beating on it with a crowbar that's what it's what it sounded like i swear to god not i said idle
but whenever you would give it throttle sound like someone's owner just whack so i said man a lot of
times it'll sound like a rod knock if an injector's bad or something yeah so i thought as soon as i get
there i'm fired up i'm gonna listen to it myself i fired it up and i was like ah man it is shaking
it's probably not idle and right it didn't really rev clean a booboo whenever
you revved it up and i was like all right something ain't right it ran for about two minutes and died
yeah i was looking at it then it would not start again after that and i was like okay well
he sucked something up uh yeah i'm gonna change the filters i put new filters on it
and then i started priming it i primed it and
it and primed it and it would not start there's an air bubble in the way dean brought
dean brought some good starting fluid i don't know that it was ether it was starting fluid
yeah and i'm talking i it wouldn't even run on it would not run on the ether which is weird
it would booboo booboo booboo but it i couldn't keep it running yeah and then you know how the
key is it'll stop rolling the motor over oh yeah after so long yeah so we tried and
finally dean said man everybody here's a mechanic this is a diesel days so he brought somebody over
and the dude was like yeah he tried and he goes that's just weird that it won't
run off of the ether yeah he said so we need to check it check the ecu and make sure that
it's telling the injectors to fire so he gets all that it looks at everything he's like yeah
there's no codes the only code is low fuel rail and i was like yeah no that's because it ran out of
fuel yeah you know uh so he tries and he's like
i don't know man we're gonna have to pressurize the tank up you sure that there's plenty of fuel
in this and i was like oh yeah how many liters we're in it man i don't know how many liters but
it had a little over a quarter yeah had a little over a quarter tank did you have to fill up in
canada i filled up on j i mean it was the only thing that sucked going by the track the flying
j was it was tore down there was a temporary store it was just a little room i had to go
in there and tell the lady i said i need 500 canadian dollar i mean 500 on pump whatever and
then i got i don't even know how many liters like 170 liters something like that nobody knows
it only took 340 or 350 dollars canadian yeah
yeah no oh no maybe it took the 500 i just got charged 350 on my card that's what it was okay
yeah i was fixing to say it was on a quarter tank yeah it had to have taken more than yeah 350
yeah but that 500 that 500 got me two great falls
loves so he's like what we're gonna have to do man is we're gonna have to pressurize the tank
and blow the fuel up to the front so i was like but then also the okay the water fuel
separate or whatever you didn't fill it up or was that something the pump listen i never
fill those up you know my Pete yeah but he said i changed that the primer pump fills it up well
mine doesn't have a primer pump huh mine has a really oh yeah oh yeah no mine's a pump like a
manual pump uh but i still don't i never do the the water separator yeah so we ended up pulling
that back off and filling it up and just could never get it to bust off and so he said man
we're just gonna have to pressurize the tank up so they did that while aiden was doing his first
burnout so i missed it i came back and they're like hey finally got it running and i was like holy
shit well it clattered back it sounded like it was knocking and all that finally it picked up
and they just pressurized the tank up enough to to push it up there so then they're like look
i'm gonna be honest with you we didn't fix nothing we just got it running by i have no idea why it
did that i have no idea why that it was bone dry there was no no nothing but air in that because
he cracked everything now that's not why no no i'm saying but like he did crack the lines
which you don't like to do no i don't like to crack the line especially on something that has a
lift pump why would you crack the fucking lines you don't need to that lift pump pushes it through
there so i get it it'll it'll let the air out easier sooner you know yeah so they said
we've we still don't know what happened we don't know what was wrong with it so
i'm sitting there letting it idle and it's smoking way more than normal and it's still shaking a little
bit more than it normally does yeah and and i'm like man just something just didn't seem right
so i let it run for about 20 minutes and then i went over and i just wow wow i just walked the
throttle a little bit it goes buh and it was finally clean up and rev up
and i'm like something's not right man and he's like yeah you probably got a bad injector or
something and i said you think it probably sucked up some stuff whenever we ran it out of fuel and
got in the injectors and he's like something he said obviously there's no lights on so it's it's
something like that and i said i it's 100 fuel related yeah because there was nothing wrong
with it before we ran it out of fuel right so finally i said he said you know what open that
tank up put you a gallon of transmission fluid in there some atf and i was like okay
i open the tank up and it goes and i went okay i'm not a diesel mechanic but i know that's not
right yeah so i told him and he goes and it's like just everything clicked and he goes okay
he goes your vents are plugged up and i was like huh and he goes well your tanks aren't
venting yeah and he goes if your tanks don't vent then as far as your truck knows you're out of diesel
he said if if there's pressure in there then it won't suck out it's vacuum it's keeping that fuel
from being able to be drawn out the fuel and he said so you're just going to run out of fuel again
so he literally just screwed those off blew through him he goes this is a big problem up here in
he said either with the trucks that run through a lot of mud or ice and snow get packed in there
and this is what happens as soon as he cleaned those out it was a different truck it revved up
clean it idled smooth it quit it quit blowing smoke everything and it was it was good
unbelievable so that had to have if he had went any further he would have made it yeah
like it would have been completely clogged up but then also when i did leave that day it did the
same thing it sounded like someone was hitting it like the same thing it did when i left the hotel
and then it was blowing a lot of black smoke out and then it could have still got some stuff in
one of them injectors and maybe all the stuff that would dude i put everything everything that you
had in the back of that you're gonna have to re restock all your stuff i used the you had one full
bottle of the injector cleaner and uh de icer yeah yeah and and gel stuff or whatever yeah
yeah anti-gel yeah i used that plus you had a quarter bottle of it i used that and then there
was an injector cleaner in there i used all of that and then i put the the gallon of of atf in it
wow i put all that stuff in that tank that only had a quarter
not so it was running off of that so it lubed everything up it had to have lubed
everything up so hopefully all that got unstuck and everything but now i mean you made it home
obviously yeah made it all the way home it got to 170 180 if i only just acted right
well you can't just jump in that thing and and take off yeah it has to warm up but it was it's
old truck you gotta get a little warmer i had to get on but remember i told you fire that thing up
and then put your bags in it do all that stuff you got to do so when we're traveling and stuff
malory gets up in the morning gets her shower and she goes out and starts the truck and so she's
out there for 10 15 minutes before we ever leave so i was in that vape yeah yeah yeah so
oh yeah it was pretty stressful but he made it yeah everything you know i say everything went
fine yeah everything was good yeah everything's fine no big deal got new tires on the front of
the truck got new tires on all of the the trailer yeah like we uh speaking of new tires we probably
had to look at that black trailer before we hit the road again hopefully we're not going to take
that black trailer that would be nice and keep teasing me about that i know so then uh yeah those uh
those traction bars worked really well yes the the traction car yeah that tyler made yeah
oh redneck tyler so he did uh his first standing still burnout uh because because of the rain
they were just trying to do something for the fans yeah and so he stood in there and it went in
the burnout box and it was just it couldn't have been any more straight i thought about going up
there and holding it but i'm telling you right now guys the the burnout blazer is a completely
different animal and the best way that i can explain it is we went from a stock chassis to a pro mod
yeah the the the c10 was kind of our get our feet wet in the burnout deal yeah that was my
reason to build a c10 truck yeah i just used that hey i'm gonna build this to a burnout so
that i'd have a sweet c10 yeah i didn't realize he was gonna actually do burnouts with it no he
destroyed that truck i know i know destroyed it now it's a parts truck yeah so but we'll put it
back together but the the blazer is just motor it's uh it's unbelievable like it was good it's
everything worked out really good i do think i'm gonna put suspension back on the front
and we're gonna put an angle kit on it so it did turn out really cool everyone that that
was a part of this build um like magnuson ict like we've got messages from them talking about
how cool it is and and how well sorted out it already seems like it's it's really cool like
like the dudes at ict they're to begin with they're freaking awesome uh if you're doing any sort of
ls swap in any vehicle that you could ever want to do an ls swap in the holler they know everything
holler at ict they've got what you need like i guarantee it like no doubt about it there's so
many times that we've been like you know what we need and then we explain what we need and then
come to find out they already have that yeah so you know these blowers are are uh pretty new
still there's not a lot of them out there so there wasn't a lot of info to get on how to make it all
work except we called ict and they're like oh yeah you need this this and this and we've got it all
so yeah so that was pretty amazing uh i do know that the magnuson people were really stoked about
it yeah and uh it ain't like they gave us that blower they they did not they are
they're stoked about how we're doing and they're like look that is one of the most efficient
sounding things i've ever heard of yeah like i explained to him that at 6000 rpm he's at 11
percent tps and it's still in vacuum yeah there's no boost being made that the the intake is still
under vacuum and they're like oh my god that should last forever yeah that's what we're thinking yeah
yeah no it's pretty cool just because like you know you you get companies involved with you
on on projects sometimes and that's that's just kind of the end of it right like you we do our
thing on social media we make but then we go out and show them what we're doing with their product
but like i like i get you know the the monster guy texts me the other day hey man seeing the
seeing the blazer looks like it's doing great how's you know how's the transmission and of
course it's good you know uh you ain't heard nothing right yeah like it's good btr is another one
you know like that truck only has their valve covers and and camshaft in it but still like
they're they're like invested in it right like they think it's cool they're they're glad that it's
running well and like they they text me about it so it's it's it's just cool and then you got qa1
they just know that their their stuff works oh yeah you don't ever hear from them
hopefully they see and realize that how cool that thing is and quick performance is the same way
guys they know that thing's quick performance knows it's good so it was like we need to reach out to
them and find out if they want that that rig in the pri booth oh man that would be probably we we
need that thing at pri yeah it's a big deal and we need that thing so ashton texts me whenever the
picture started coming out and uh he sent me the one picture where him and mario or dude that you
couldn't ask for a better picture than that like both of them are looking at the camera yeah and you
can see the the motion you know i text Doug and Doug was like man that is just a genuine happy face
right yeah so so the you know the little sticker on the axle right that says qp like it's perfectly
i was straight up and down and then the the quick performance sticker on the on the glass so they
wanted that picture to hang in their office so we i like i like that's a cool picture i hope mario
gets it blown out yeah it's pretty cool yeah it was a good time it did everything that we wanted it
to do uh the only problem that we got to fix now is a little bit of my suspension work i think that
i need to put the put suspension on it i need to put the the qa qa one stuff back on the front
so tyler said he could build us new brackets for the rear because you know the rear shocks mount
to that bracket he said that he can build that bracket where it'll move the shock back so that
we don't have to put it on the rear end housing like we were going to well i'm gonna be honest with
you man i think that this thing is so cool that i'm gonna want to drive it i mean it'd be cool
right now you can't like i want aiden to take it to a cars and coffee
not drive it yeah but that yeah i'm gonna trailer it yeah at least to richie's house
and drive it from there it'd take a lot of methanol yeah we gotta get the man hey after after i did
my it wasn't it wasn't no long burn i was like a minute and a half something like that it didn't
take more than five gallons so still that's five it's like three and a half maybe something like
but uh the one belt did come off and it did rip up some stuff so we need to make sure that uh
i forgot the wiring is underneath and tucked in i did fix it um it got 220 but that's not bad
no no 220 is fine that's that's normal yeah operating temperature yeah and then it would
burn off all the condensation in there and then it sucked that it was it was still wet out there
so there wasn't as much smoke as i wanted to be so upset because it came out of the burnout
and there was one tire that wasn't all the way blown it still had air in it no there was no air
in it there was to it's crazy it was crazy how that thing remember how the burnout truck it
melted the tires unevenly this thing does it the exact same way it depends on which way he's
actually turning which way he does his turns more i think shouldn't because they're locked together
but one of them has more pressure on it than the other one of them got to easier than the other
one of them has one side has more load yeah and i would imagine that the side with load
is the one that takes the most yes i was just looking at them tires that sitting out there in
the shop the other day and one of them you can still see the wear bars the other one's completely
bald well that the ones that are out here that's from oh that's the straight burnout that's from
el Reno that's because that's the one that i tip sideways on because so then what's so what's the
reasoning there if it's a straight burnout well no i didn't have Tyler's deals he didn't have Tyler's
deals on there okay but i also had more load but i also lost the bolt so there's more weight on the
one side so that's why is that tire was the one that had more the one that you lost the bolt on
was that one the one that was balder yeah yeah because it's pushing down on it yeah which speaking
of so i can imagine you know what we do weld those bolts on there so they don't because it fell out
on the way to canada no you said that yeah i absolutely said that but didn't you just hear
what he said we're gonna put shocks on the back so don't weld them right now yeah but i do think
that we can do that and then i can still use my stuff to lock it down for travel and stuff
yeah or not even travel to do the burnout to where it doesn't uh so it seemed to work
like is it fine out there when you're spinning around does it feel it's great and then uh but
the first time i popped the tire in it it was definitely it was scary like not like scary but
i just didn't know what was happening i knew it cleared but it sounded like it was hitting on
those uh those metal bars that are holding up the gas tank it sounded weird it was it also
felt like and then i'm pulling out of the pit and i go is there like mom goes you lost a wheel and i
go no shit and then i go back there and the tire is gone because you have lost a wheel yeah he has
i seem to now hey he was doing the burnout you know how sometimes the tire comes off and it just
keeps on rolling i did that oh okay yeah but she goes you lost a wheel and i go uh and then and then
i pull off and dad goes no you lost a tire and i go okay that's what i thought you know and then
but when i was pulling off it was your mom tries clunk clunk and i know i still had a the whole
outer was on the other side yeah so it was clunking me it's definitely cool man watching that thing
pull out of the burnout box on the rim of the wheels yeah as you're rolling you know it's it's
man it's pretty cool yeah that's what i mean that was my goal i mean because every time i did a
burnout in the burnout truck it would pop both tires and i'd be happy about it but it's still
making smoke the whole time because the inner and outer be are still on it so it's still making
smoke i also say it saves the lip of the wheel yeah but still it's cooler whenever can you still mount
tires on those wheels that he's been they did yeah those guys those guys spooned them on they're out
in canada yeah no i said y'all got time machine ago now and they started spooning those tires on
there yeah and that's how it was a boot yeah and that's how they did the fronts too huh yeah no one
guy one guy that one guy and it wasn't even uh he didn't even take the wheel off the truck did he
yeah no but what he left the truck the wheel on the truck and he spooned the other one off like
we do the front runners on wow yeah but he uh oh that guy that the that one smashed he was smart
no he flew backwards and came out this way yeah i wasn't expecting that that got me right there
yeah that fly out smart of me yeah but the one guy that uh
only thing you brandon no uh yeah well yeah his name was brandon the only thing he asked me to do
was pull off the front spikes that was it and then he did it on the wheel oh oh so you're the one
that lost that soldier i didn't pull those two soldiers i didn't pull him he did oh he had to have
huh he lost two spikes i've seen that it was missing three when he left no it wasn't oh no you
fixed them all i put all new ones on it you know so i didn't touch the fronts i was i was getting the
blazer loaded up in the or i was getting it strapped down it it looks like a good time
looked like there was a lot of cool semis and it's like the pictures you sent me the semis were
pretty it was a good time man and mario's great to to to go and and i'm glad it was i'm glad there
was trucks out there that were like my truck and there wasn't just big rigs jd had a good time
to look at all the other trucks there's some cool trucks out there they were just it's up in canada
there's a lot of rust on a lot of them yeah there was one do you see that dermax that should have been
let go like it was missing i saw it on a trailer dude going home that next that next night it was
missing the whole truck yeah he had some it was a cool truck it was a really cool truck but it was
rusted out it's kind of like that old unit out back that we just bought the k5 and he had some
26x14s on it it was a dermax it had a bed stack i'm pretty sure yeah of course it did yeah they
were talking about how they invented the bed stack up in albert and i was like uh yeah it was a good
time regardless uh so i really think that uh i'm probably gonna reach out to cletus and just
ask him what do we need to do to get aiden down there to his deal it's on my birthday oh really
november 14th yeah november 14th there's a uh cletus has one burnout rivals and but his next
event is in two weeks in indy it's a brand in two weeks it's in connecticut right no it might be
but he's all yeah he also has another one that's in canada area in neapolis yes but the one in two
weeks the coming up one i think is in connecticut well the one in indy that's the one he does the
big circle track race too right and then he has a burnout the nearest the nearest cletus and cars
or whatever the nearest freedom factory is november yeah which is also i mean well it's after
sema it'd be after sema the week after like you'd have to leave vegas and drive to lorda
yeah it'd be a lot i make that drive to canada seem short i'd probably fly i would if i were you
yep no you left you left and got home the same day that's right yeah but i still made i made at
home i made i made it you had to the only reason yeah i had to is because i had to
you put in some hours they got real jobs yeah yeah you put in some hours i made it
26 hours and 41 hours all right so what else man i don't talk about what we got coming up in
darlington and then the weekend after darlington is martin and we're changing up a few things guys on
on our on our youtube um
i don't know if it's fair to say that we've gotten behind since adan's been editing
we just got behind uh like if if you watch a lot of our
youtube stuff then you know we obviously just went and he's already done two burnout events
and you just saw where we built the thing last week we're gonna do better we're gonna start doing
weekly weekly videos of it doesn't matter what it is whatever we're doing that week the following
week y'all will see we'll put it out we're gonna be current with everything and we started that
today yeah so it basically weekly vlog stuff so in the in my opinion the reason that we got behind
is we we have so many projects and then we we never have everything we need to complete a project
so then we've got 30 minutes worth of footage for this project but we can't finish it and who
wants to put out a video that's unfinished yep so then we've we've got all these videos that were
slowly but surely finishing up and uh that just doesn't work nope so we're gonna try
something else and like this morning we came in what was on the plate for today fix the 55
we did that fix now there's something else that we got to do tomorrow that's gonna be on the same
video so the whole video will be we fix the 55 uh i think we're gonna start on the ppv tomorrow but
before that we got to pull the wheels and tires off of the caprice take them and drop them off to
get new tires and and some tire pressure sensors put on them things that's something i've wanted to
do that car for years well it needs it because you can't always tell that those tires are flat
you cannot and sometimes you get drove sometimes you can drive on on flats and it tears those tires
up so just anything that comes up weekly we're gonna start filming and and you guys will see
what it's like for the week yeah so so instead of just one project yeah it's gonna be whatever we do
we may jump from project to so uh we got to get all the cars ready this week
we got to get the trailer ready this week we still got some stuff to do to the boat
the boat's pretty cool the boat is pretty cool one day this week we will show you guys everything
that we've done to the boat and we'll just do a walk around to the boat yeah because i haven't
really shown a whole lot of this uh erin has shown a little bit of the boat but we got that
baby running it runs like a top and then of course we had to accessorize it some yeah i mean
let's be real man and you may not admit to it but i am a ricer at heart i like lights accessorizing
accessories yeah yeah like i don't care i'm i'm a ricer at heart and i always will be yeah so with
that being said we're gonna do better on our youtube um we've just fallen a little bit behind
and so then starting next week all the stuff that we are behind on is gonna start coming out on
sundays until we get caught up yeah so tuesdays are gonna be our podcast day because every tuesday
like clockwork a guarantee you're gonna have a podcast every tuesday every tuesday uh thursdays
are gonna be our weekly vlog right from the week before main channel and then sundays are gonna
be our special day where we like you know for now it's gonna be we're getting caught up on some stuff
until we get caught up on everything we'll hopefully we'll have three a week or two a week and and a
podcast yeah most of the time every week guaranteed like clockwork so but anyway so there's gonna be
a lot of videos coming out and uh it's gonna be a little bit different so i think it'll be better
because it will be current and then you guys won't have to wonder how long ago did you do this
why are you wearing a hoodie shone's lost weight since then you know so don't have to worry about
any of that stuff yeah um so yeah i think that'll do it for this podcast right what are we at a
couple hours uh hour and 30 okay yeah perfect good perfect so um man episode 14 pretty good
talked about a lot of stuff here uh may have made some people mad hopefully just the wing people
just the wing people that's okay and it's really just me shon shon shon doesn't mind no mismatch
uh i don't like them my car doesn't have i think you can accept it i i refuse to accept i i don't
care what other people do because people with wings are not winning all these events yeah so
but i've seen some people go well my car is more stable with it so i'm gonna continue to run it
i'm not saying it's not you know right on hey hey if you want a big wing on your car here you go
this is what i'm gonna do i'm gonna go yeah hell yeah man it's 2026 are you out are you
contributing hell yeah you are keep it up i don't care if you got a wing it doesn't matter to me
i don't care if you got a friend in on your car it is what it is uh outlaw outlaw syndicate
accepts winged cars it does you can you can run right yeah that cheville that green cheville
oh yeah ain't he about flipped over in the finish line too he did because that's what wings i said
that's what wings do they do it at the finish line yeah out right about the time it starts
you know 150 yeah so outlaw syndicate accepts winged cars front cars with no front ends
turbo john was there didn't he have a wing on his car did he not he took it off he did take it off
for that the turbo don't take his wing off i think he took his wing off he has one sometimes yeah

About this episode
Yard-life chaos and drag-racing frustration collide as the hosts settle in after a week home, dealing with mower issues and a missing yard helper. The conversation then turns to racing: after a season-opening high, their car struggled at US131 in Martin, Michigan—misfires/engine troubles, stuck rings, and a scramble to diagnose what changed with the bigger blower. They discuss new gas-ported pistons, ring packages, spare parts, and a fresh “Blues” motor setup waiting on a new blower-to-intake pipe, plus upcoming race plans and the heavy-hitter field at US131.
A LOT has happened in the drag racing world over the past couple of weeks, and we're breaking it all down.This episode covers our disappointing weekend at the Midwest Drag Racing Series race at US 131, the Jacob McNeal controversy, the future of the IHRA Triple Crown and Jason Harris' shot at the million-dollar bonus, why Outlaw Syndicate continues to gain momentum, and everything we broke at Skelton Raceway.We also talk about Chase Womack's huge Small Tire No Prep win, why we're glad to see a different style of race car winning again, the upcoming Outlaw Syndicate events, and Aiden's adventure hauling GoldMember all the way to Edmonton, Alberta, Canada for Diesel Days.If you enjoy honest opinions, behind-the-scenes stories, and hearing what it's really like inside the drag racing world, this episode is for you.#MoronNation #SmallTire #ProMod #OutlawSyndicate #MWDRS👕Get your official Murder Nova and 187 Customs apparel or order parts for your hotrod at:https://www.themurdernova.comGet your Never Eyewear here:https://neveneyewear.com/?rfsn=8810281.b585c0&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=8810281.b585c0 mTAGSFollow Us!https://www.facebook.com/187Nova/https://www.facebook.com/187customsLLC/https://www.instagram.com/murdernova/https://www.instagram.com/187customs_/https://www.instagram.com/phantom.405/
