The History of Clay Millican
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 авг 2024
- Getting to drive NHRA Top Fuel dragsters as a career seems like a dream, but for Clay Millican it is a reality! He worked hard to make it to the top, with commitment at every level.
These nitro machines accelerate to insane speeds and require lightning fast reaction times, but most of the work occurs behind the scenes, where Clay seeks out the resources to get the Parts Plus team to the track! There are a lot of high net worth individuals in Top Fuel, but Clay has scrapped to get where he is.
Clay Milligan is one of the greatest in history. Very humble dude.
Clay is the most humble, sincere and experienced driver. His whole team puts their all in every race. Being a small independent team, they are truly amazing having the success they have. Thanks for this interview!!
Clay Millican is a class act! He has never changed from the small town guy he was when he was growing up in Drummonds, TN in spite of his fame. He has never forgotten where he came from because he still lives there!
I go to the Vegas October races, happened to be walking through the pits, Clay just happened to be driving by in a rental, I said hi, he waived back. Awesome guy!👍😉
I have had the privilege to meet you Clay like many...you are the most humble man out ther and I will miss seeing you again in SEATTLE this year.
Always enjoy Clay tell his life stories. He gives a lot of credit to his wife, and rightfully so.
He is truly my favorite racer and his attitude is what pull's people in and why we love following him..
Awesome info. You are one of the best Top Fuel Drivers and a very humble person¡ Go Clay¡
Don Garlits talks about the "Factory Team" mentality of "drive it to destruction". He was always on a tight budget too. Capco should definitely be on that "factory team" list. When you understand this it makes Clay's 6 World Championships really stand out.
To be honest I don’t think there were any “factory” teams in the IHRA where Clay won his championships. I really wish there was still an organization like the IHRA where small nitro teams could run and compete. I know the IHRA still exists but not for fuel racers.
Just think in twenty year from now motion race works will be sponsoring cleetus in a top fuel dragsters. We can only hope !
Great job Clay, keep it rolling.
Well I come from the other side of the pond,started spectating @ drag racing in '73,was blown away. I always wanted to race,but never had the where with all to make it happen. I waited 46yrs to finally make a run @ Santa Pod raceway here in the UK. Sadly not @ the wheel,but in the passenger seat of Santa Pod's 2-seater dragster in 2019 I did that run,time 7.828secs & 171.77mph & I was 66yrs old by then. My mate who came with me to take pics,said I was smiling from ear to ear when I finished the run.
Well now 69yrs old & in September going to do it again. Probably the last time,it costs £500($660),& when you're living on a pension it's to much. But I paid for this years run before I retired in March this year.
Another great video from Living Nitro. So good to be able to hear the individual stories of the people in this great sport.
Humble interview with a cool Dude 👍🏼
Txs🏁
Never lose that little child inside of you Clay. THAT is what makes life worth living.
Clay, you are the boss. I love you vids. Your insight is amazing. You have a fan for life. Stomp it
I met you many years ago at Martin Mi. You autographed my hat and treated me like family. In 2005 i was the guy who rode the elevator with you and your wife at Covington Kentucky I still have that hat and have not worn it since the day you autographed it. Wish you the best and be safe God bless you
I had a long conversation with Joe Morrison a few weeks ago, and he pretty much said the exact same things that Clay is saying here about being a small independent team. From being the sales and PR guy that procures sponsors, to the tight knit crew, to the kill switch to save money on parts, it was the same. Joe was even a very nice and personable guy just like Clay seems to be in this interview.
Clay is a man that looks like he’s thanking God every moment of his life for his life.
I met him once at Maryland Raceway with Dom Lagana. Super-nice man, and I’ll stop what I’m doing to see him again.
May God continue blessing you, sir.
Thanks Clay for this video. We can only imagine how tough it is to be successful in the sport of drag racing.
Watched you in Denver it rough right now . But regardless we got your 6 .
A great human right here!
I love seeing the PFI sticker.
Brett is a stand up guy and needs are support against the EPA
thought I might want to be in motocycle racing - then I went to race school and found out I didn't. I liked going fast but not in a crowd and not being on the edge.
Great insight Clay. Such a likeable guy.
This is why I like him Best !
CLAY MILLIGAN you have God with you shining over you mostly when you wife Donna is with you and the rest your family keep up the cool work you deserve it like you said treat people like you wanto to be treated
I never finished highschool I got GED , went to trade school to be a Aircraft Tech , I like go fast until I rolled my car at over 100 MPH in stubble field after the right front tire blew ... I wish I had that car back 😂 keep it on race tracks kids ....
He describes Himself as a "bracket racer at heart"; He is dialed in now.. just in 3.70 class..
See you at Indy clay
so awesome!
I like to see that PFI sticker on the car
What a nice guy.
'treat others like you want to be treated' - hard to do in this world -
but we get help.
Awesome
I've always wanted to go fast too. I wanted to be a NASCAR driver when I was around 7/8 years old. I am now 49. I never got to do it. Wish i could.
Awsome
💥💥💥
cool guy, regular guy!
That he is!
🤗 You've Got a
Winning Smile🪄
Being a good person helps.
I've watched a lot of drag racing on tv. And one thing I noticed when I see you in person is that it seems that a qualification of being a driver is you need to be about 5feet tall. You all look taller on tv.😇
😁👍
Anyone run over Shawn langdon yet on "accident"? asking for a friend
Go Clay! 😎
