Brent and PFI Fam, Thanks for all of the solid coverage from Bandimere! Loved all the content with our mutual friend Mr. Clay Millican! and the interview with Ms. Tami Bandimere was AWESOME!
Takeaways from Friday, You are just as nice in person! Thanks for taking the time for my Son and me on Friday, His watching you service the car shows everyone your work ethic. The Peoples Champ. Now go get 'em! Stomp on that Loud Pedal. Thank you again Clay for being so gracious with your Time. The Carter Boys
Ringo!! What a great story. Kaylynn's mirror story answered a question for me, thank you. Man the car seems to be really hooked up. Another video worth watching a few times! Thank you Clay.
hey clay i am a big fan from europe........please dont die..we all prey for you all .....this is frecing too fast for control.... i love you and stomp the loud padel...greets from alex
Was absolutely honored to meet you. My family loved you and loved meeting your entire team. Meeting you all for the first time was great. Dennis is also a blessing, and I am proud to call myself his nephew!! Thank you for the amazing opportunity!
I asked about the mirror two vids ago (I think), so I'm particularly pleased to get the answer! Thanks Clay and Kaylynn, and that's definitely a cool thing!
Exactly right-that’s drag racing!! You and your crew are definitely on a roll and are the team to beat !! There’s gonna be more Wally’s in the future for sure!! Stomp on that Loud Pedal and get er done!!
This video was a great way to start my day. Celebrating an awesome race yesterday, with my favorite driver in Funny Car (Tim Wilkerson) winning. Enjoyed seeing your team have a solid weekend as well. Congratulations on all of your recent success! 😊
Outstanding qualifying and the round win. It was soul crushing to see the tree red on you but no matter what--win, lose or rained out, we'll keep cheering you on! Next up, SONOMA!
Dang it, Clay! I missed you this year in Seattle. Next year? There is little chance of you getting away without running into me. One of your biggest fans. The 5.5 hr drive to the Disturbed concert in Auburn, was a little much after last Sunday. With another concert next Tuesday, Aug 1st. Just too much driving. But, You and Donna Be Safe and keep on WINNING! That is why so many people love you! You treat fans as family and are not stuck up in any way I have seen. You and your Team are Good People! All of you deserve the best! I Won't miss you again. Congrats on last weekend in Colorado! Wally #2 Baby. Line `em up on the wall for Rick Ware and Team! Thanks for the excellent content Clay! And a thank you to Tom Bailey "ALL THINGS RACING" for helping you drop some merch!
Great race clay . I use to shoot semi pro. Yes lots head games it's bummer but you learn by wins or losses. Great job Clay. You should of had your sisters there. God bless
Thanks for getting some more crew footage of any sort. I asked for it, you liked the comment and here it is! Made another great video with a little different content. (and its interesting watching the banana pile shrink in the hauler)
I absolutely hate saying this, Clay,… I missed you when you were in Seattle. Two people in the hospital that are very close to me, I just could not get out of Spokane. I tried, and I tried, and I tried and it makes me just sick to my stomach. You know that you are my favorite driver and I love your “autism speaks” helmet. The one you wear for your niece, Zoey, my son, Brady, and the thousands and thousands of autistic children throughout our great nation… I totally approve of your new helmet lol.
So happy to watch your channel as always !. Thank Kaylynn for her mirror explanation. I was always wondering about the mirror too !. Really hoping I'll be able to get your cool shirt from abroad.😄
Great video as usual. Going to have to get some MERCH!!! This part is specifically to Ringo. I made a pretty major fubar that cost the company plenty of money and pretty much expected to get fired. After the 6 week repair got completed, the field service guy brought back the bad part that had to be machined out of the good part and a replacement installed. He gave it to my boss and my boss had it cut in half. He called me in his office and handed me one half and put the other half on his desk and basically said "Guess you're not going to !@#$% that up again, are you?" I kept mine at work for many years, but during a remodel of the office, brought it home and its still on display in my shop. I am a better engineer today for that 5 minute 'pep talk.' Own it and learn from it in every way you can in that situation. Exactly what you did. Keep that trophy and learn from every aspect of it and you rise from the ashes. Try to make excuses about what and why and you gain nothing. I hope to give you a high-five at some event in the future, because you rock, and Ringo isn't the worst nickname. :) You are all awesome team PArts Plus, RWR Summit, Clay and the Jim O crew!!!
Thank you for sharing Clay. Thanks all the guys for sharing what they do also. To Izzy well things happen and that is why we are human and correct them so they don't happen again. Clay I do have a question. Do you ever practice with a tree for you reaction time like some of the other drivers? Thanks again guys.
Clay, that was a tough red light dude. I know you're gonna be harder on yourself about it than the crew will be on you. I know you don't like to let them down. You've been in Doug's head for so long. , I was watching on TV and I couldn't believe it when the red light came on but you've always got next week. Be patient work on your practice tree, and you'll be solid. Good luck next weekend, we'll be watching.
I remember being at that track the first time there was a side-by-side, sub-6-second run. How things have changed. That was back in the 70s. 5.90 for top fuel run is slow these days. 🙂
Can't wait for the east coast tour. Goin to maple grove in PA in September hopefully we'll see u at some point in the pits. Glad to see y'all finding your groove n having speed wherever u go
Old school new school working hand in hand best school for best results . I enjoy Clays old school burn outs everytime he lines up for a side by side drag race.
There’s nothing like a s!?t eating’ grin to make me smile. Clay, I think the thing that really impresses me is the fact that you don’t let racing get under your skin. Now, don’t get me wrong, racing is business. There isn’t a great paycheck for second place but the reward is still there inside and you show it. Thank you for sharing those little details that let me into your life. My family has a very brief racing history and you make me appreciate that. God Bless You and stay safe.
Hey Clay, Why did you beat yourself? You're the man, the record you have this year is fantastic. Red lighting is beating yourself. I understand you were trying to cut a great light. Doug is up and down and should not be feared.
Idk if this is thinking out of line idk how top fuel works. But mabe you should try something like cleetus does and try including the whole crew on the merch line. Even if it’s just a shirt here and there an helping them out with the extra proceeds I’m sure would be great full. After all they are a part of this channel even if it’s part time. Might be too much but just an idea. Go stomp that loud peddle!.
Oh yes The former Seattle International Raceway Wish I could be there man I'm allergic to that side of the state Haha When's nhra gonna certify Spokane for you guys!?!? ( wishful thinking) That Would be a show
One of the greatest but please try a steak medium well hurts my soul to see them over cooked. You are still awesome sir keep stomping on that loud pedal
Thanks for the headsup on your merch thru your friend. I watched clips from NHRA over the weekend so I knew you didn't win the final here so you weren't able to sweep the western swing DANG! I've been seeing you sporting a crew recently and wondered why then you showed how you once shaved your head bald. Please never do that again. You are awesome and thanks as always for showing us the behind the scenes of you and your team. Almost forgot....you have been doing short burnouts and I think you said something about getting that from Jim Head. Does that help to reduce heat in the clutch?
Hey, clay, no matter what position you qualify. In we got Faith, brother, you did it from number 5 last week. You can do it this week again, let's get another wallet.
After knowing exactly what kinda steak man Clay is, I dunno if I should sub anymore 😂. Steak that way reminds me if growing up as a kid and eating the cheap cuts of steak well done, cut real thin with A1 to wash it down.
i’ve been patiently waiting for this content!! Solid race car and driver!! thank you brother !
Brent and PFI Fam, Thanks for all of the solid coverage from Bandimere! Loved all the content with our mutual friend Mr. Clay Millican! and the interview with Ms. Tami Bandimere was AWESOME!
Thank you guys for keeping the cylinder pressure maximum!!!
There's a lot to this top fuel. Without this content, who would know except the teams that do it? Awesome stuff.
We Definitely need
"Stomp on that loud pedal" stickers also😎👍
Clay, bring the mountain with you on these runs and repeat the beat. Win win win. Thank you Rick Ware for the boost.
Takeaways from Friday, You are just as nice in person! Thanks for taking the time for my Son and me on Friday, His watching you service the car shows everyone your work ethic. The Peoples Champ. Now go get 'em! Stomp on that Loud Pedal. Thank you again Clay for being so gracious with your Time. The Carter Boys
Thank you!!!
The camera angle at 18:34 showing the fuel vapor in the Sun Light, you can see it change when you engage full fuel. Epic shot.
Ringo!! What a great story. Kaylynn's mirror story answered a question for me, thank you. Man the car seems to be really hooked up. Another video worth watching a few times! Thank you Clay.
Most excellent job Stomping on that LOUD pedal. Great team work. Making Rick proud.
Thank y’all Mr.Clay 😎U guy’s are the best team in drag racing …(Ringo) awesome 👏💪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you Clay for letting us take part on your great Team and the cool stuff you do.
Clay you always make my day watching your RUclips channel. Congratulations on your second win, and go man go...😎
how can you just not love this team. If ever go to the states for dragracing im so looking up them at the track
I've been saying the same for years. I got my tickets (airplane and track) for Las Vegas in October! It's finally happening.
Your team is really showing what it’s capable off and that’s a championship contender good luck next race cheers from Grand Bend Ontario Canada
We love you Clay!! Drag racing is one big family, and I'm excited to see the future.

Was great meeting you too !!!
Go figure. Finally, in my area and I have a stroke and can't be there. I am fine. Clay. You are an inspiration. Such a good dude. Best of luck.
Get well soon!!!!
I asked about the mirror two vids ago (I think), so I'm particularly pleased to get the answer! Thanks Clay and Kaylynn, and that's definitely a cool thing!
It was fun to watch this live on Sat.
I was able to shake your hand Saturday in Seattle. My hope was to meet you and introduce my son and grandson. Thanks for being so personable.
You're an inspiration. I was honored to meet you in Vegas. Looking forward to Sonoma. Cheers!
Exactly right-that’s drag racing!! You and your crew are definitely on a roll and are the team to beat !! There’s gonna be more Wally’s in the future for sure!! Stomp on that Loud Pedal and get er done!!
Katlyn has lost a ton of weight, looking good , nice I need to catch up on the vlog , it’s kool , love it thanks BigAl California.

Thanks Clay for giving this old fella his fix of Top Fuel action. Glad to know I'm not the only one that likes my steaks well done.
Got my curiosity fixed with the mirror explanation 👌thanks 🤙
Great race clay . I use to shoot semi pro. Yes lots head games it's bummer but you learn by wins or losses.
Great job Clay.
You should of had your sisters there.
God bless

She didn't call you old....
She called you well experienced 😆 😆
Team is looking great this year. Also excited to see more merch in the future!!
Great video, car is on a mission 😬💥💪
Man, Clay!……….your team is on fire!
Wow Clay you are in my neck of the woods. The last time I was at PIR was about 10 years ago with my son. Nice to see it on your channel.
Thanks for getting some more crew footage of any sort. I asked for it, you liked the comment and here it is! Made another great video with a little different content. (and its interesting watching the banana pile shrink in the hauler)
Clay it was great to meet you Friday night and to watch you “stomp on that loud pedal”.
Good luck Clay and the gang

Heeelllll yeah brother! All the freedom horsepowers!
Double duty, Clay, hopefully get that broom out and do some sweeping !
Clay and crew y'all rock! Don't let that red light beat you up. Your allowed one every year or so. Peace
So happy to watch your channel as always !. Thank Kaylynn for her mirror explanation. I was always wondering about the mirror too !.
Really hoping I'll be able to get your cool shirt from abroad.😄
Thanks for answering my question from last week with the mirror. Go get them again this weekend.
The team is looking good. You guys are getting more consistent every week, I see good things in the future.
Cool video. Enjoyed watching ✌️ 😎
Thanks Tom that's Sick of course
Home you enjoyed Seattle. Its my hope track and enjoyed seeing you.
Clay I have on of your T shirts on the way. Can't wait to see ya kick butt at Brainerd.
Clay looked older in 2003 than he does today
Great video as usual. Going to have to get some MERCH!!!

you guys are a great team !
Well Done is the way
Thank you for sharing Clay. Thanks all the guys for sharing what they do also.
To Izzy well things happen and that is why we are human and correct them so they don't happen again.

I would love to see your competitors too. I bet there some characters .

Well done with A1 that’s terrible!!! I’m bring gator tail to the track when I come!!!
😆😆😆
Put last week behind you
Can't wait for the east coast tour. Goin to maple grove in PA in September hopefully we'll see u at some point in the pits. Glad to see y'all finding your groove n having speed wherever u go
Bought a Stomp On That Loud Pedal shirt today. Thanks for the link Clay, maybe next year you'll be be in the Nitro Mall!
Oh wow thank you !!! Just so you know at the racetrack my apparel is on the Hot Rod Randi trailer.
I wonder if the IHRA head shaving was an homage to 1967 Don Garlits breaking the 7 second barrier as well as his total wins?
Tough break on the Whole Foods Challenge, but .002 is pretty dang close.🤙
Old school new school working hand in hand best school for best results . I enjoy Clays old school burn outs everytime he lines up for a side by side drag race.
Love you Clay! I think ya should show us what you see from a baby mirror’s perspective! ❤
💥💥💥
I need one of those Oberhofer shirts ❤
Sorry Clay you lost me when you said "well done and A-1 sauce" LOL
lol me too. Made my jaw hurt :)
My dad is in the tower seats! Lucky bastard bahahaha 🤘🏻
So I asked on Leighs youtube thanks Katelynn and Clay on the question!! Clutch guy HELL we have CLUTCH GIRL Hell YEAH!
There’s nothing like a s!?t eating’ grin to make me smile. Clay, I think the thing that really impresses me is the fact that you don’t let racing get under your skin. Now, don’t get me wrong, racing is business. There isn’t a great paycheck for second place but the reward is still there inside and you show it. Thank you for sharing those little details that let me into your life. My family has a very brief racing history and you make me appreciate that. God Bless You and stay safe.
I love my steak medium well with A1 sauce and a loaded baked potato and a cold beverage. A meal of champions and hard working men
gota stay in that groove there
Clay, what is the idea behind the quick , short burnouts?
Hey Clay, Why did you beat yourself? You're the man, the record you have this year is fantastic. Red lighting is beating yourself. I understand you were trying to cut a great light. Doug is up and down and should not be feared.
If I knew the answer obviously I wouldn’t have done it. If you have never red lighted you have obviously never raced.
Nah Clay never redlights... Clay was just the fastest man on the planet... just to fast for the green to catch up.. and i'm sticking to this story!
Great combination you guys got going right now. Love that energy and we all love Clay. ❤️ SOTLP
Just checked, sold out of shirts. Please order more.
Will reorder more asap thank you
Great content brother
Another close call! But come on, better win the actual race! Bye run! Car runs consistently too. A-1 on steak like Dale Jr. on the podcast!
Do the crew members get, or have the opportunity to purchase Wally trophy copies from event wins?
I know I would want one.
Dang bracket racing at 320 plus🤦♀
Well don with A1 thats me 2
I'm with you on the well done with A1. Catch Phrase??
Idk if this is thinking out of line idk how top fuel works. But mabe you should try something like cleetus does and try including the whole crew on the merch line. Even if it’s just a shirt here and there an helping them out with the extra proceeds I’m sure would be great full. After all they are a part of this channel even if it’s part time. Might be too much but just an idea. Go stomp that loud peddle!.
Oh yes
The former
Seattle International Raceway
Wish I could be there man
I'm allergic to that side of the state
Haha
When's nhra gonna certify Spokane for you guys!?!?
( wishful thinking)
That
Would be a show
One of the greatest but please try a steak medium well hurts my soul to see them over cooked. You are still awesome sir keep stomping on that loud pedal
Was that when you won at us131 in 2003? Seeing that race was the 1st time going to a top fule race and been going every time they are at us131 since
Thanks for the headsup on your merch thru your friend. I watched clips from NHRA over the weekend so I knew you didn't win the final here so you weren't able to sweep the western swing DANG!

Wth😂 was there! No Way!
Dang it Clay. Yopu done sold out all the Stomp on that Loud Pedal shirts already. Got a Dentley instead. Hope you restock soon.
Wow that happened quick we will restock ASAP Thank You !!!
@@claymillican25 All that was left was smalls and 4xl's
So does each crew member and the driver get a Wally when you win or you guys just get one for the team?
Well done steak? No! That’ll make you red light!!
Hey, clay, no matter what position you qualify. In we got Faith, brother, you did it from number 5 last week. You can do it this week again, let's get another wallet.
Thanks to your WIN last week ole Jimbo looks younger & a whole lot happier. Keep up the good work & no more red lights Clay !!!
After knowing exactly what kinda steak man Clay is, I dunno if I should sub anymore 😂. Steak that way reminds me if growing up as a kid and eating the cheap cuts of steak well done, cut real thin with A1 to wash it down.
Clay can you explain why you have shortened up you're burnout.
Is there any particular reason that you're not running with a full canopy. It seems like the drag coefficient might translate to more speed.
What Nooo wayyyy 😂😂😂
What is done with all the parts that are no longer used that are bad, like clutch plates,spark plugs, old pistons?
I noticed your burnout is shorter and higher revving.
someone knows why was the burnout routine changed?
I think they're trying to keep the tire temperature lower.
@@matthewerwin4677correct when track temp is way up we are trying keep tire temps lower.
What’s up with the short burnouts, is it bc it’s so hot outside
I have to say, your "Well Done with A-1" comment moved you down a notch... 😛
What's all the holes in the top of the helmet for?
Idk if I can watch this channel anymore ! Well done steak 🥩 idk about you clay 😂😂
