Grew up with Mini Rod neighbor friend back when it all began. He had problems bucking getting the sled started off the line.. but I still think I'd rather have to ride a ferocious mean ass bull than strap myself into one of these things, that's what's crazy, lol!!!
Man these minis are ragdoll tumble dryers. 2:33 he was absolutely violated without being bought a drink 1st. That does not look fun, organ reassignment procedure.
Can someone explain building something extremely light weight on the front end, and then having add a few thousand pounds of counterweight to make up for the extremely light and frail front-end?
High hp to weight ratio. My small block only weighs 1400 lbs. can only weigh up to 2050 lbs. max they add a couple hundred pounds of weight definitely not thousands
Nothing as manly as naming a mini rod 'Vibrator' (I could be serious or joking, haha) Awesome and DAMN no Mercy lived up to its name, that concussion will take a second to heal.. hope his, neck, etc. are alright, that was ROUGH...GEEEZ
@@rustedratchetgarage6788 They don't use the Hans or ANY real neck restraint. Closest thing they use is some guys have the Collar that goes around their necks.
and that weight box deal could have been BAD.. wow! I'm sure it tore up his motor having such little load and thus FAT as a pig (along with bearings) but maybe not too bad) 'adventurous night' for sure!
225👍's up thanks again for taking us all along with you for the great show
These things are nuts and would be terrifying to drive. Great video👍
These dudes Clank when they walk.. what a show
2nd place not even a dude. Abby is pretty cool though.
Kinda of a adventurous night with the Mini's.
It was an interesting class, that's for sure
Great video... Thanks a bunch!
Glad you liked it!
Love the mini rods.
Mini rods get rowdy👍👍
They was some good hooks in there
Saw some of these while having a bite at Oggi's. They didn't go far at all before they churned up massive dirt cloud and stopped. Crazy!
Dude about knocked himself out...he's lucky

5:03 You know it was a good pull when the sled's tires do a burnout after touching back down!!!
That dude was FLYING down that track!!!!
Yeah not quite.

I don't know if I could go to that level of crazy, some of those guys have there feet inches from the block!
TY
These are badass, these guys are nuts to straddle the tranny with 4000hp in front.
One suggestion- Hans Device.
Gotta be able to jump ship quick if (when) they go up in smoke

The front ends are built light to transfer the weight to the rear tires. The extra weight on the front is to keep it from going too high.

Question how many horsepower is that little thing have?
Over 1700HP
3000 HP my nephew has 3 tractors he pulls he competes on this circuit

you mean piledriver, right? no mercy had a smooth run
Hope Pile Driver guy is ok, that was vicious
He was back in the 2 two tractors later. I am sure he was sore after it.
What surprised me is I saw no sort of Hans device
Very loose belts and no neck roll. That dude was asking to be rag dolled.

@@Koontzy. Loose belts? Hell most of them don't even strap their helmet's on, they just slide em on and that's it.
What is the displacement limit on these things
575 Cubic Inches, same as the 2-wheel drive trucks.
This is what's up. Much lower expenses.

Its fun to see how many people are damaging their ears by not wearing protection
NO , It'S SAD Life Long Def More & More
Worth it
It is worth it
The minis aren’t that loud. When the big boys come out, those are loud!
If you think these are loud try the unlimited modified tractors
