I think Rocky the Blazer was the biggest surprise of the entire Rocky Mountain Race Week event. Brand new build, fresh off the dyno, ratchet strap suspension and George killed it all week!
I'm so happy ls George came to cleets channel , I was so pissed about how faster proms tried to screw him over awesome job ls George, we love ya !!! JEREMEY WHO ?????
Had a buddy about kill himself on a Yamaha banshee with some ratchet straps on the front suspension. Right strap broke and sent him out into a freshly tilled corn field at about 120 mph without a helmet on. Y’all be careful with those straps. 156 mph straight into a wall would be bad all around.
What you guys are doing for Sam is totally awesome. He’s a genuinely great guy and you’re keeping him young and he’s reliving his younger years vicariously through each and every one of you. 👍
@@keedoopop4900 whatever happened to that guy, haven’t seen him in a video in a while, think the last one was a drag n drive event where he took his mustang…
GG on the W man! Fairly sure Mullet is more reliable than any of my road cars. Awesome seeing George do well too, this whole week was just a feel good experience. Ty as always for bringing us for the ride.
Watch George's eyes going down the track he's monitoring everything 6 times over on every pass. What a freaking absolute blast it is watching him and the whole team grow!
the thing is entirely weight reduced, doesn’t even have a dash, the motors mounted low they did about everything, the best big thing is suspension. unless they go tubular chassis
Don't forget a lexan rear window. Seriously, With some suspension upgrades and some TLC. Rocky could be a very serious competitor at these drag and drive events going forward. Congratulations to all of the McFarland Racing Team, You guys are making things happen in a BIG WAY.
Next George shirt: "Buenos dias this punk!" George avatar with a fist midair towards the back window of the Blazer.. Congratulations to you guys. Great to watch!
I thought about the window breaking. Could it be that Blazer's whole body has been flexing throughout the week and then it just broke the window as the car cooled down over night?
He wouldn't have gotten to this point at the last job he had. To me with cleet the possibilities are endless with his last boss that was a dead end 9-5 boring paycheck
The most fun thing this years race week is seeing George's progression from nervous to feeling more and more comfy in the blazer and his just overall progression at the drag strips, buenos dias to ya brother!
This is pretty much the only channel that truly makes you feel one particular thing that I can’t think of another channel that does; makes you feel like you’re there and part of the team. Like you’re in the pits, figuring out all these problems with them, then racing with them. What a feeling.
Hey Cleetus, congrats to you and George this trip, totally awesome...just wanted to say a Big thank you, to you Cleetus, Sam, George, you made me and my Grandsons day at Pueblo, what a great group of people all behind you guys, thanks for signing everything for us, I know your extremely busy...can't wait till next year.....thanks again
I've said if from the beginning, blazer will tum 7's when it's "" Done"", when the blazer gets more and more stuff done to it, it will run 7's mark my word 👌
@@PuerRidcully Jeremy runs an actual business. Cleetus is entertainment channel who gets payed by sponsors. Jeremy relies on customers. George stiffed Jeremy. God I love gen Z.. Work ethnic? What work ethnic..
At first I thought rocky was just for George to go and have fun, I thought you guys were investing a lot of time and energy into a car that wasn't that serious, but I think rocky just cemented himself as a permanent part of the cleeter fleet. You guys all kick ass! Keep it up!
The McFarland Team does it again. I am so proud of George for coming in second and especially for turning his first 8 second pass in "Rocky". Shout out to all 4 of you for killing it this week.
Don't forget the men back at the garage in FLA. And Mrs McFarland (Maddy) for allowing her new Husband to go bouncing all over the countryside with the boys acting like teenagers on spring break with daddys muscle cars.
Absolutely love Sam. He’s living the life and having a great time. Probably didn’t get to do as much in his younger years. Maybe when he was in the Air Force or Navy. Y’all are making his day everyday. That’s Freakin Awesome.
It has been so awesome to see George's confidence and driving ability improve on this trip specifically however from start till now is just an A plus keep it rockin George.
Garrett, i have no idea if you’ll ever see this, but I just realized I am not watching you for the cars or the races. I’ve been so addicted to watching the team you’ve built, grow and be better. They do such an awesome job and work in such harmony. I know it’s not all portrayed on camera but you know what I mean!
Those Blazer back glasses break easy. About 20 years ago, I had one break from heat. It could also have been only half latched and blew open and closed real hard. I'm hoping it was something like that. Great job to all of you btw. This was fun to watch.
Cleetus , didn’t you know the comment section is full of engineers and pro race drivers that know absolutely everything there is to know about drag racing
Bro, this was proven to me many times over and on Chet's accident vid. It's amazing to me we are at a stand still (somewhat) in car tech with so many engineers in the comments xD
Dude it's been so cool to watch everyone here grow, but george this week, feels like he's stepped into the drivers role really well, rocky start in rocky, but finished strong a.f. And i'm proud of em all.
Good job Cleetus ! you managed to put this hole program together and assemble a bunch of very interesting characters while you were at it . Since the inception of your channel you have done so much and I don’t think enough credit goes to you for what you have done for so many people along the way . Stay sane and in your comfort zone Happy Trails
Agreed! I feel like George has always been a hype man and never got the to be the one in the light. It’s awesome to see Cleetus give him the blazer and let him be apart of the crew.
Watching your progress as a team/channel over the past few years has been awesome. From turbo whistles, to an 8 second blazer.... its been a hell of a ride, and loved every minute. No lie, jumped up and yelled in my living room when George hit that 8. I was so happy to see your reactions, and your pride... unfortunately I woke up my daughter, but your videos are her JAM...15 months old, but she has a weakness for Mullet. Cries if I don't let her watch. And gets giddy listening to big block turbo noises... Cheers to all... keep doing your thing
Congrats to the whole McFarland racing team and Brent from PFi. Great teamresult. Also touched in the end where Cleetus talked about how Kyle from 1320 started his carrière and this event started all the fun and history we now know and love. Hell yeah brother!🇺🇲🇺🇲
We need a Cleetus’ Florida Man Race Week!! Bradenton, Orlando Speed World, Palm Beach Raceway, Gainesville, Miami Speedway, etc…!! Maybe even sprinkle in a Florida keys track! Just me brainstorming :) would love to see it ❤️
@@wyattbosch6181 Tom Bailey killed it. His is in January. Imagine a Florida man raceweek, around Halloween time. Wrap rocky to look like a giant 🎃? Hell yes!
@@cliff4695 I whole Hartley agree.. The team has done just about everything in the American motorsports game.. Why not create a FF race week.. Maybe extend the Christmas tree idea around different tracks for all the fans of them and all the other amazing teams racing today 🇮🇪🦅🇺🇸🍀
The video started out a block from my house, I spent many hours in a patrol car sitting in that parking lot watching traffic. Keep up the good work guys
Hey Cleet, I cant believe anyone could dislike you guys! Being in the collision repair industry for over 40 years, its not uncommon to have heat blow out back glasses on suvs. BUT, driving it open for all those miles, I thought it would have broken long before it did. If I remember right, there is no frame on the glass. driving with it open the wind pushing it down would stress the glass at the lift cylinder points. you need to fab a slick frame and use lexan plastic like the windshield. Pro Glass can probably help with glass, and your guys are very capable of fabricating up a cool frame. You have a great team.
fantastic effort all round, must have felt a bit wierd having so little drama to deal with this week. No diff shenanigans, no gasket blowouts, no breakages of any kind till the shoot out, just run after run, squeezing the most out of each track each day. Keep it up!
@@replynotificationsdisabled Exactly, they nailed the stuff they needed to, no crazy curveballs like we've seen so many times over the last few years. Less fixing, more racing and some of the craziest turbo whine I've heard in years!
My Lord it's really amazing to see how far you and the team have come in the past few years. Toast is an absolute UNIT and I think it's safe to say that Rocky surprised damn near all of us. Sam, George, Zack, Ty -- really just super cool to see so many skilled and seemingly genuine dudes added to the team. Excited to see what's in the future!
I had the back glass from my bed cover shatter randomly one morning after a cold night. I believe it was on enough of a bind from the struts and the sun baking it which caused the break. you guys are very genuine and personable, its hard to believe it was vandalism. good racing boys
I find it strange too! Odd that the Blazer was the only one damaged though. That tempered glass can be temperamental (pun intended). Years ago, I was taking some parts for my '71 Camaro to put in storage. Had two spare side windows in the back of my '76 V8 Monza and going into the storage place was a pothole right at the gate. Went slow into it and it bounced *just enough* to rattle them together and BOOM! Both of them shattered! Good thing I had already put the "good" ones on the car and those were spares ...
Love seeing you guys bringing home wins! Zach and George killed it this week. I was worried about Rocky finishing the week but 2nd in the class and going rounds in heads up? Hell yeah brother!
To be honest I don’t know how someone could hate you enough to bash out your window like that. You guys make freakin awesome content that no sane person could be mad at 🤣🤙🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@christianbuczko1481 yeah, you clearly know little about drag racing. That c5z trapping 120+ at elevation means it's making much more than the ~350 WHP it would make stock. I mean anyone with good ears could hear the procharger on it a few videos ago. It's struggling to get into the 12's because Sam is launching it very softly to not destroy his car.
To be honest I thought it would make it but be limping a whole helluva lot more than it was, the fact that it waited until the very end to play dentist with that belt was amazing.
@@scrappy7571 "almost killed George"??!! When TF was that?? Hopefully you are not talking about the little trip into the wheat field! Almost killed him? Sir...are you high?
Awesome job everyone on a successful drag week finishing in the money 💰. You and Brent killed it with mullet. Cleetus seeing you credit those who started your career says a hell of a lot about you brother. It shows in how you've brought on guys who needed a hand up like jackstand, george, Sam and all the shop crew. Giving George an environment to grow in has paid off in spades ♠️.. and remember the world needs more race car 🏎 drivers not lawyers. LoL. Congratulations all of you. Excellent video
Seriously, Cleetus is the greatest human on earth. I've been watching since the beginning. When he was cussing his ass off driving other people's cars. To him jammin whistles in a Corvette tail pipe. Not to mention he has made perfect additions to his team, least of all George is is far and away the bet personality on any youtube channel. Thank you Cleetus for being you.
Sam is great and love what he brings to the channel. George did great taking second in his class and second in the shootout. As far as Mullet he is a beast and Congratulations to Cleetus on winning the event overall and that car is so reliable running 7's consistently even at these altitudes is amazing
Congrats to Cleeter and all the crew. Congrats to Georgie for 2nd in 9s, and also for making it as far as he did in the shootout! Congrats to Sam for his 12 second pass, he's the legend! Shootouts to Ty and all the rest of the crew back at the shop. And by golly another win for a Steve Morris engine.
You’re an awesome guy Garrett! Way too far down to earth if you ask me. Your videos are inspiring to say the least, and your attitude is matched by none. I honestly think you’re the best person I know even though I don’t know you. You are a role model for all youngsters that are starting out in life. I wish you a long and healthy life so that you can keep inspiring the future youth! I just wish you could have inspired me when I was a kid.
Really proud of you guys. I remember watching back when it was whistles in the vette's exhaust. Glad I followed you guys to now. Weeks like this make me pumped for the future.
I was just thinking if Whistlindiesel had his Blazer window broken he would have gone to the ends of the Earth to figure out who or what broke that window. Cleetus just goes “oh well” and moves on. I like WD but it is interesting to see how different they are in that way.
Cody can't keep from losing hus shit over the smallest things, it hurts his likeability, something Cleetus has no shortage of from his fans. Everyone can't help but love Cleetus
WD takes it to th logical extreme sometimes but hes mostly just messing around and not actually mad as far as I can tell. As long as its an accident anyway.
@@kickstartkrew9924 it’s ironically whats helped WD build his brand. Unless you live under a rock, controversy sells. People eat drama up like flapjacks. Especially when it’s funny.
Glad Cleetus took a second to address the doubters cause he usually doesn’t. At this point you would be crazy to question him with all the race weeks Cleetus has been on. Congratulations to Cleeter, George and the whole crew
This was definitely one of the best race week video series to watch. I had been waiting in anticipation every day to see both how Cletus would do and LS george.
Garrett Mitchell it is so cool to have been one of the OG subz and watch you become who you are today. From a kid from Nebraska goofing around with cars to a real drag and drive winner. Congratulations brother!!

You changed that mans life. He could have spent his whole life scraping. Now he will know success. Good job team. Keep the sport growing and get that nose down stay safe.
I'm just glad to know I can do wheelies with a piece of shit LS, way too much nitrous, and an otherwise stock Blazer with stripped interior lol. I'm so glad they made use of that old blower and got a solid motor in it. I think the Blazer is my new favorite vehicle to watch go down the track.
That award ceremony though seeing yall smile seeing cleet at the top. Livin' the dream my man you did it congrats can't wait to see what the future has in store for you.
Loved the little speech you held there. Blazer in the finals?! I'd never thought that, that's amazing! Congrats to the whole Team, it's been a blast. Again! ✨🙌🏻✨🕺🏻💨💨
so so so glad that you have the people you do with you on this amazing adventure we call life love to see the new content and race week love seeing rockey and mullet taking some heat. also can't forget about sam making some awesome hits in the Corvette one of my 2 favorite older people. puts a smile on my face that you guys are giving him such an awesome time and hopefully some new experiences
You went from being happy to survive drag week to winning 1st overall in back to back drag weeks. Couldn’t be happier for you and hopefully it continues
Congrats on the successful trip to you and your road trip team, and the guys back at the shop for all their hard work as well! You should be very proud of the team you have assembled. Oh, and Sam is even cooler now that I know he is an ex AF wrench like myself! Thanks for all the great content!
I really enjoy George with the blazer. So much positive energy. When seeing the blazer from the side it seems to miss something. (Looks wise) It may needs some graphics or wing.
You can’t have NO in your heart! Brother haters gonna hate! Congratulations on finishing the race in one piece and having fun! The 2 most important things in racing!
Hey guys I'm already back in Florida drifting at Klutch Kickers today! Watch for free on the live stream right here right now! - cleetusmcfarland.com

Learning from his boss, he’s won a few times gotta keep it going it isn’t over till it breaks or you cross the line 😀

Have you heard of sick week?
@@wyattbosch6181 Tom Bailey killed it. His is in January. Imagine a Florida man raceweek, around Halloween time. Wrap rocky to look like a giant 🎃? Hell yes!
@@cliff4695 I whole Hartley agree.. The team has done just about everything in the American motorsports game.. Why not create a FF race week.. Maybe extend the Christmas tree idea around different tracks for all the fans of them and all the other amazing teams racing today 🇮🇪🦅🇺🇸🍀
If they can get something at Daytona I would be over the moon!
Great idea
"Could have been a lawyer" I NEED THAT AS A SHIRT
The video started out a block from my house, I spent many hours in a patrol car sitting in that parking lot watching traffic. Keep up the good work guys
That's awesome to see Rocky/George go from 11s to 8.9s in a year's time. Such awesome work you guys
But owned it just over a year now, they got it last year around this time
Hey Cleet, I cant believe anyone could dislike you guys! Being in the collision repair industry for over 40 years, its not uncommon to have heat blow out back glasses on suvs. BUT, driving it open for all those miles, I thought it would have broken long before it did. If I remember right, there is no frame on the glass. driving with it open the wind pushing it down would stress the glass at the lift cylinder points. you need to fab a slick frame and use lexan plastic like the windshield. Pro Glass can probably help with glass, and your guys are very capable of fabricating up a cool frame. You have a great team.
fantastic effort all round, must have felt a bit wierd having so little drama to deal with this week. No diff shenanigans, no gasket blowouts, no breakages of any kind till the shoot out, just run after run, squeezing the most out of each track each day. Keep it up!
They are checking valves many times a day. Not like it's sealed...
@@replynotificationsdisabled Exactly, they nailed the stuff they needed to, no crazy curveballs like we've seen so many times over the last few years. Less fixing, more racing and some of the craziest turbo whine I've heard in years!
Brent is such a beast!! You 2 go together like PB and J!
My Lord it's really amazing to see how far you and the team have come in the past few years. Toast is an absolute UNIT and I think it's safe to say that Rocky surprised damn near all of us. Sam, George, Zack, Ty -- really just super cool to see so many skilled and seemingly genuine dudes added to the team. Excited to see what's in the future!
I had the back glass from my bed cover shatter randomly one morning after a cold night. I believe it was on enough of a bind from the struts and the sun baking it which caused the break. you guys are very genuine and personable, its hard to believe it was vandalism. good racing boys
I find it strange too! Odd that the Blazer was the only one damaged though. That tempered glass can be temperamental (pun intended). Years ago, I was taking some parts for my '71 Camaro to put in storage. Had two spare side windows in the back of my '76 V8 Monza and going into the storage place was a pothole right at the gate. Went slow into it and it bounced *just enough* to rattle them together and BOOM! Both of them shattered! Good thing I had already put the "good" ones on the car and those were spares ...
Back glass on daughter's BMW 3series blew out last week also. We were standing right next to it. Nothing hit it. Hearing a lot of this lately
Love seeing you guys bringing home wins! Zach and George killed it this week. I was worried about Rocky finishing the week but 2nd in the class and going rounds in heads up? Hell yeah brother!
To be honest I don’t know how someone could hate you enough to bash out your window like that. You guys make freakin awesome content that no sane person could be mad at 🤣🤙🇺🇸🇺🇸
So killer of that dude to share a blower belt man.
Love the brotherhood
Way to go George!!!!
Sam looks good in that Vette. Sam definitely has some Ricky Bobby in him though and he's 3 or 4 seconds away from a huge smile. Hook him up Cleetus!!!
That corvette needs some drive shafts, gearbox and turbos.
Vette is a low ks mint example. I dont think cletus is about to try n pimp his ride. I see him getting something new tho
That vet is not "stock" 🤫
@@firestaronly its struggled to get in the 12's, so almost certain its stock seeing as sam had the marauder in the 10's. He can drive.
@@christianbuczko1481 yeah, you clearly know little about drag racing. That c5z trapping 120+ at elevation means it's making much more than the ~350 WHP it would make stock. I mean anyone with good ears could hear the procharger on it a few videos ago. It's struggling to get into the 12's because Sam is launching it very softly to not destroy his car.
Everyone needs a friend like George. Such a genuine dude.
"Without this event who knows what I'd be doing...." "being a lawyer!" LOL ~cleatus and brent~
We need more Blazer on drag and drives!
Will honestly say I would’ve been the first to say the blazer will never survive race week. Color me wrong. Great job Cleetus and crew 🦅🦅
To be honest I thought it would make it but be limping a whole helluva lot more than it was, the fact that it waited until the very end to play dentist with that belt was amazing.
Well!! It almost killed George. That was some scary shit.
@@scrappy7571 "almost killed George"??!! When TF was that?? Hopefully you are not talking about the little trip into the wheat field! Almost killed him? Sir...are you high?
Awesome job everyone on a successful drag week finishing in the money 💰. You and Brent killed it with mullet. Cleetus seeing you credit those who started your career says a hell of a lot about you brother. It shows in how you've brought on guys who needed a hand up like jackstand, george, Sam and all the shop crew. Giving George an environment to grow in has paid off in spades ♠️.. and remember the world needs more race car 🏎 drivers not lawyers. LoL.
Congratulations all of you. Excellent video
Seriously, Cleetus is the greatest human on earth. I've been watching since the beginning. When he was cussing his ass off driving other people's cars. To him jammin whistles in a Corvette tail pipe. Not to mention he has made perfect additions to his team, least of all George is is far and away the bet personality on any youtube channel. Thank you Cleetus for being you.
Cleet-“He went about .12 on the tree last time”
LS George- “hold my beer”😂😂😂
Hey I'm sorry bother, but did you win? Or is that a scam?
@@69chevelleguy spam
@@zebulonluce1559 yeah figured after they said I'd have to pay shipping fees for a PS5 and Samsung s 22 that would cost 144.00. Thanks for the reply.
Definitely a scam brother
Man how good is that, With no testing the Blazer and Mullet did amazing
Sam is great and love what he brings to the channel. George did great taking second in his class and second in the shootout. As far as Mullet he is a beast and Congratulations to Cleetus on winning the event overall and that car is so reliable running 7's consistently even at these altitudes is amazing
Congrats to Cleeter and all the crew. Congrats to Georgie for 2nd in 9s, and also for making it as far as he did in the shootout! Congrats to Sam for his 12 second pass, he's the legend! Shootouts to Ty and all the rest of the crew back at the shop. And by golly another win for a Steve Morris engine.
Just an awesome team effort,gotta get that t-shirt with George in the wheat field asking is this the winners circle,well done crew
Absolutely this!!!
You’re an awesome guy Garrett! Way too far down to earth if you ask me. Your videos are inspiring to say the least, and your attitude is matched by none. I honestly think you’re the best person I know even though I don’t know you. You are a role model for all youngsters that are starting out in life. I wish you a long and healthy life so that you can keep inspiring the future youth! I just wish you could have inspired me when I was a kid.
Really proud of you guys. I remember watching back when it was whistles in the vette's exhaust. Glad I followed you guys to now. Weeks like this make me pumped for the future.
I was just thinking if Whistlindiesel had his Blazer window broken he would have gone to the ends of the Earth to figure out who or what broke that window. Cleetus just goes “oh well” and moves on. I like WD but it is interesting to see how different they are in that way.
Cody can't keep from losing hus shit over the smallest things, it hurts his likeability, something Cleetus has no shortage of from his fans. Everyone can't help but love Cleetus
WHEN IT COMES TO GEORGE OR HIS VEHICLES, CLEET EXPECTS SHIT TO HAPPEN.
I wonder if they found a rock or some thing during the clean up
WD takes it to th logical extreme sometimes but hes mostly just messing around and not actually mad as far as I can tell. As long as its an accident anyway.
@@kickstartkrew9924 it’s ironically whats helped WD build his brand. Unless you live under a rock, controversy sells. People eat drama up like flapjacks. Especially when it’s funny.
Man I love love love having Brent as the crew for cleeter on these drag and drive events.. please book him for life!!
Fasterproms hired a hit man to take out the glass!🤣🤣🤣
When are y’all gonna ever get over Jeremy
@@Nick210 when you get out from under him!🤷♂️🤷♂️😡
Man I can't wait to see the day when Cleeter has his own Race Week.
Glad Cleetus took a second to address the doubters cause he usually doesn’t. At this point you would be crazy to question him with all the race weeks Cleetus has been on. Congratulations to Cleeter, George and the whole crew
When George said “buenos dias this punk” I died laughing.
This was definitely one of the best race week video series to watch. I had been waiting in anticipation every day to see both how Cletus would do and LS george.
Garrett Mitchell it is so cool to have been one of the OG subz and watch you become who you are today. From a kid from Nebraska goofing around with cars to a real drag and drive winner. Congratulations brother!!
The magic of a Roots blower…. the ultimate old school “power adder”.
I’ve seen that tempered glass just break before, happened to my truck topper. I was just working in the garage and for no reason it just blew up. 😂
I think the wind caught it and flung it up causing it to shatter leaving remnants on the roof.
@@jvon3885 handle is still latched and the struts are down
@@jvon3885 I think you nailed it. (no pun intended)
Same.. had a Blazer and that back window would just self destruct for no reason.
My wrangler did the same when it was only 1 month old. Jeep said not our problem and I had to buy the replacement
This i why this is the greatest car channel on RUclips today period! They are so humble and so nice ppl i believe thats the American way! Hell yeah brothers great job to all you guys at the freedom factory the world are proud of guys... Shout out from south africa PE
You changed that mans life. He could have spent his whole life scraping. Now he will know success. Good job team. Keep the sport growing and get that nose down stay safe.
George looks like he's riding a mechanical bull when he launches Rocky.
🤣🤣🤣
8 second ride 👍
That blazer is a beast. I honestly never thought that thing would be this fast. That thing is no joke.
I'm just glad to know I can do wheelies with a piece of shit LS, way too much nitrous, and an otherwise stock Blazer with stripped interior lol. I'm so glad they made use of that old blower and got a solid motor in it. I think the Blazer is my new favorite vehicle to watch go down the track.
That award ceremony though seeing yall smile seeing cleet at the top. Livin' the dream my man you did it congrats can't wait to see what the future has in store for you.
This is definitely one of my favorite race weeks. I can't wait to start seeing Ruby and Leroy back again though
Let’s go!!!! Big congrats on the race week finishes
Loved the little speech you held there.
Blazer in the finals?! I'd never thought that, that's amazing!
Congrats to the whole Team, it's been a blast. Again!
✨🙌🏻✨🕺🏻💨💨
so so so glad that you have the people you do with you on this amazing adventure we call life love to see the new content and race week love seeing rockey and mullet taking some heat. also can't forget about sam making some awesome hits in the Corvette one of my 2 favorite older people. puts a smile on my face that you guys are giving him such an awesome time and hopefully some new experiences
I love these events! Thanks for bringing us along again. The blazer is amazing! Leroy will always be #1, but the blazer may be my 2nd favorite.
You went from being happy to survive drag week to winning 1st overall in back to back drag weeks. Couldn’t be happier for you and hopefully it continues
Congrats on the successful trip to you and your road trip team, and the guys back at the shop for all their hard work as well! You should be very proud of the team you have assembled. Oh, and Sam is even cooler now that I know he is an ex AF wrench like myself! Thanks for all the great content!
I really enjoy George with the blazer. So much positive energy.
When seeing the blazer from the side it seems to miss something. (Looks wise)
It may needs some graphics or wing.
Honestly it looks so good with the fresh polished paint
You can’t have NO in your heart! Brother haters gonna hate! Congratulations on finishing the race in one piece and having fun! The 2 most important things in racing!
Love everything about this team. Everyone is so genuine and we all learn so much through these videos
Love all this race week content. Sad to see it all end. Its Been amazing.
