  • Race day was going great beating Shawn Langdon in the first round. Second round things got interesting with unexpected tire smoke in front of us. That’s where things got tricky. #weather #tricks #car

    It's been a few years since I made the trip to Norwalk from Canada but because of this chanel I decided to come down sunday. I tell you that first round was the best round of racing I've seen in my life. That many cars all completing fast passes and side by side finishes within a few .001 was unreal. Walked out to your pit a few times and you guys were working real hard and all had smiles on. You have a unique team and I used my Summit rewards to get next years tickets already .😉

    I used to order parts from Jegs because they did not have any warehouses in the state of Nevada so I did not have to pay tax, but now that I have to pay tax no matter what state the company does business in I go to Summit now because they have a warehouse in Nevada. If the part I order comes from the warehouse in Nevada, and I order the part early enough in the day it shows up the next day here in Las Vegas without having even to pay for overnight shipping.

    @15:00,, it's amazing to nowdayz see a gob a fellers on the track measuring temps, checking for rubber, overall fretting what the track may allow. Some get it figured out, some do not. 12,000 horsepower is worthless IF ya can't find a way to get those HUGE slicks grab aholt a dat track, LAUNCH like a rocket spin the Earth backward and propel your race car down range in 3 and a half seconds at 330"+" mph! A tough task for all the crew chief's.

    Clay! On the issue of main studs pulling out of these top fuel blocks: Steve Morris & Tom Bailey have a block they are manufacturing that is machined from forged billet aluminum. I'm thinking out loud here, with no knowledge of the manufacturing process for Top Fuel blocks, but I can't help but wonder if maybe the Morris & Bailey design and engineering might hold some better ways of bolstering main stud area strength.
    Just a thought! Also: thanks for being you. You model a level of outgoing positivity I'd like to achieve in my own life. It was cool meeting you at Norwalk in 2023.

    A couple of questions:
    - Does everyone run the 2:90 gears? What does tire wrinkle and expansion change that to? +/- 20% ?
    - If a chute is released at a number of wheel rotations (by those that do that) - why dont we see chutes pop during wheel spin happenings?
    Love Ned Rolsma. His hair at 21:49 looks like an oak tree, which is what a a7 footer should have for hair !

    Dear Mr Millican, I'm a motocross announcer up here in the Great Pacific Northwest and I have some sad news. The guy that I admired most in my field was a guy named Larry "Supermouth" Huffman who was inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 2008. Believe it or not.. He was the first person to coin the phrase that so many of us quote today in racing, and the phrase your sister, Leigh, used at the beginning of her video "SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY"
    I am gutted to report that the day she released that excellent video, Monday July 1st, Larry Huffman passed away. The phrase "Sunday, Sunday, Sunday" along with "You'll buy the ticket for the whole seat, but you'll only need the edge!!" and "You'll bring your BRAINS HOME IN A BAG!!" were all Mr. Huffman.
    Even though he was best known for his AMA Camel Supercross in the '70s and '80s.. it was "the phrase" used in a commercial for Lions Drag Strip in Wilmington Ca. during the late '60s (the track he got his start in announcing) where he FIRST used the line "SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY" that endeared him to his fans. I don't know if you knew him, I did not. But he had a profound impact on my career, and it is why today, I salute him.
