If you’re building a modified car, shops like this can be important for fitment and quality."}},{"startTime":545.3,"endTime":550.3,"type":"term","title":"full carbon bumper","url":"/glossary/full-carbon-bumper","quote":"I'm like, hey, man, big fan, what you going to do with that full carbon bumper? You know, because he hit the wall, you know what I mean?","canonicalId":"term:full-carbon-bumper","priority":0.6,"confidence":0.9,"source":"hybrid-fuzzy+gpt-5.4-nano","data":{"explanation":"A “full carbon bumper” means the bumper cover is made entirely from carbon fiber, usually for weight savings and a high-end look. Carbon fiber parts are often used in performance builds and show/street builds because they can reduce mass and add stiffness. Fitment and crash repair can be more complex than with standard plastic bumpers.","simplifiedExplanation":"They’re talking about a bumper made from carbon fiber. Carbon fiber is a lightweight, strong material that many car enthusiasts use for a nicer look and sometimes better performance. If it gets damaged, repairing it can be trickier than a normal bumper."}},{"startTime":556.6,"endTime":561.7,"type":"concept","title":"crash memorabilia for the garage","quote":"And so, I was like, it's going to be cool memorabilia for the garage. You know, I got Grannis Racing to be correct.","canonicalId":"concept:crash-memorabilia-for-the-garage","priority":0.35,"confidence":0.6,"source":"hybrid-fuzzy+gpt-5.4-nano","data":{"explanation":"The speaker is describing keeping a damaged/repaired part as “mem memorabilia” for the garage—turning a crash event into a story piece. In car culture, this often reflects the idea that the car’s history (including mistakes and repairs) becomes part of its identity. It also highlights that crash-damaged carbon parts can sometimes be repaired rather than replaced.","simplifiedExplanation":"They’re saying they might keep the repaired/damaged part as a keepsake for their garage. Car people often like to keep parts that tell a story. It also suggests the damage might be fixable instead of totally scrapped."}},{"startTime":640.6,"endTime":653.5,"type":"term","title":"stance game","url":"/glossary/stance-game","quote":"...the big thing right now, right now is the stance game. So, you know, now we're not doing no negative camber and all that kind of stuff...","canonicalId":"term:stance-game","priority":0.55,"confidence":0.9,"source":"hybrid-fuzzy+gpt-5.4-nano","data":{"explanation":"The “stance game” is a car-culture trend focused on fitment and visual stance—how low the car sits, wheel/tire positioning, and overall proportions. It often overlaps with show builds, but can also influence how a car is set up for street or track use.","simplifiedExplanation":"“Stance game” means building a car to look a certain way—usually very low and with the wheels tucked just right. It’s more about the look and fitment than raw performance."}},{"startTime":653.5,"endTime":657.8,"type":"term","title":"negative camber","url":"/glossary/negative-camber","quote":"...now we're not doing no negative camber and all that kind of stuff, right? On the Super, but we do want a pretty stancy build.","canonicalId":"term:negative-camber","priority":0.45,"confidence":0.9,"source":"hybrid-fuzzy+gpt-5.4-nano","data":{"explanation":"Negative camber is when the tops of the wheels tilt inward toward the car. It’s commonly used to improve tire contact during cornering, but stance builds may run extreme values for appearance. The hosts mention they’re not doing extreme negative camber on the Super, implying a more balanced approach.","simplifiedExplanation":"Negative camber is when the wheels lean inward at the top. Some people set it that way for handling or for a more aggressive look."}},{"startTime":677.5,"endTime":685.3,"type":"term","title":"17 inch bead lock","url":"/glossary/17-inch-bead-lock","quote":"...it'll be a, you know, it'll be on a 17 inch lower on a small tire, build a 17 inch bead lock, should be north of a thousand.","canonicalId":"term:17-inch-bead-lock","priority":0.85,"confidence":0.9,"source":"hybrid-fuzzy+gpt-5.4-nano","data":{"explanation":"A beadlock is a tire setup that mechanically clamps the tire bead to the wheel to prevent the tire from separating under high load or low pressure. Drag and high-power builds often use beadlocks because they can run small tires and aggressive setups without the tire “rolling” or unseating.","simplifiedExplanation":"A beadlock is a special wheel that helps keep the tire firmly attached. It’s especially useful for drag racing where the tires see huge forces."}},{"startTime":692.6,"endTime":707.4,"type":"term","title":"full chromoly cage","url":"/glossary/full-chromoly-cage","quote":"It's got a full chromoly cage, fully built 2J, turbo 400, 8A merian, I mean, that's a drag car. 100%.

In drag and high-horsepower setups, it helps prevent fuel starvation and maintains consistent pressure for reliable runs.","simplifiedExplanation":"A surge tank is like a buffer for fuel. It helps make sure the engine still gets enough fuel during hard acceleration or big power pulls."}},{"startTime":712.6,"endTime":718.8,"type":"term","title":"radium in tank","url":"/glossary/radium-in-tank","quote":"...but you know, we got, you know, radium in tank, going to a radium surge tank, it's feeding like an air mode of 7.0 pump...","canonicalId":"term:radium-in-tank","priority":0.75,"confidence":0.85,"source":"hybrid-fuzzy+gpt-5.4-nano","data":{"explanation":"Radium is an aftermarket fuel-system brand, and “in-tank” indicates the fuel pump module is mounted inside the fuel tank. In high-power builds, in-tank setups help maintain consistent fuel delivery and reduce starvation during hard acceleration.","simplifiedExplanation":"“Radium in-tank” means they’re using an aftermarket fuel pump setup inside the fuel tank. It’s meant to keep fuel flowing reliably when the engine is demanding a lot."}},{"startTime":718.8,"endTime":718.8,"type":"term","title":"ID 2700","quote":"...we got dash 12 fuel lines, ID 2700, and Jake thirds,","canonicalId":"term:id-2700","priority":0.85,"confidence":0.55,"source":"hybrid-fuzzy+gpt-5.4-nano","data":{"explanation":"“ID 2700” likely refers to injector model/flow rating from Injector Dynamics (ID), where 2700 is commonly used to denote injector size/flow capability. High-flow injectors are essential when building engines for high boost and drag-race power targets.","simplifiedExplanation":"“ID 2700” sounds like very high-flow fuel injectors. They’re used when the engine needs a lot of fuel to make big power."}},{"startTime":718.8,"endTime":718.8,"type":"term","title":"dash 12 fuel lines","url":"/glossary/dash-12-fuel-lines","quote":"...it's feeding like an air mode of 7.0 pump, we got dash 12 fuel lines, ID 2700...","canonicalId":"term:dash-12-fuel-lines","priority":0.7,"confidence":0.85,"source":"hybrid-fuzzy+gpt-5.4-nano","data":{"explanation":"“Dash 12” is a fuel-line sizing convention (AN/JIC style), where the number corresponds to the approximate internal diameter. Larger dash sizes reduce restriction and help support high fuel flow rates needed for big turbo or nitrous-style power levels.","simplifiedExplanation":"Dash 12 fuel lines are bigger fuel hoses than stock. Bigger lines help deliver more fuel to the engine without starving it."}},{"startTime":750.9,"endTime":756.0,"type":"term","title":"$2,000 fuel pump","quote":"...you get a freaking $2,000 fuel pump, you're like, we're that one row 255, man.
