Scotty's Garage has been awesome since the first episodes and now leading into this. Great content, I'm always late for work on a Friday because of it and I blame you! I think some water/methanol misting into that turbo will cool things right down. The eight is soo fricken close, it'll come. Stay safe and give your boy a hug, hope he's going ok.
Great episode Scotty I vote if you get into the 8s you do the funky chicken dance and go to drag week in the USA with it and have a massive adventure with the Barra brigade there
Sounds feckin' scary man, but be a cool ring tone for the phone. Be safe big man. Bet you felt 19ft when the young lady shouted "you're my hero Scottie!" You ought to do a t shirt with mazda on it and it's time when it does it. And have, scottie you're my hero on the back
whats crazy is i recognised that ute from the rear camera shot i hope he has that pump issue sorted was having some pump problems good to hear he is got it rolling pretty good looks so clean for a budget build
Fun fact.... all the great cycling speed records have been achieved in precisely this kind of conditions. Hot, dry days with a thunderstorm coming. The air is thin because it is warm and there less of it stacked above because it is rising because it is warm. That rising eventually creates rain. Good day for cycling: bad day for cars, unless you can compress the air enough...
that's racing Scotty, you think you have gotten it all sorted out but the car has other plans, put it down as a test and tune day and come back and run brackets, hopefully in the 8.??. 👍🙂
My guess that was the last meet for the year? You know it WILL happen, have yourself a well earned break with the family. Hopefully next time the temps are more favourable and we see that elusive 8 Merry Christmas.
Hahahah "Scottys my Hero!" Didnt she know you were doing celebrity things?? Such bad luck man - but really, its not that bad, thats a dam quick car still! Got nearly 1/2 a sec in it for sure...
Very unlucky, tho you had to of known it was never going to be simple with you Scotty there's always a drama..looks a real "hang on" end track though the little Mazda.
I miss Heathcote. Been crook for the last 4 months, but looking forward to getting back up there ASAP! You guys rock. Thanks for keeping me entertained while i've been stuck in bed!
18 psi then send it Scotty I think you could do an episode with all the great looking cars there I would like to attend just to see them Got to love Mexican weather hey 😂😂
Who would rather see one car get worked on to go seriously fast? Meee. Rather than a few cars kinda working. Watching Cletus and is team shows how important rear end setup is! I'm sure if you cut the rear end off and spent thousands building a drag rear end 8.60s would be simple (once you learn the setup)
@@STREETMACHINETV I guess you can never account for waiting on parts and track days etc plus all the other things we have no idea about. Ok so when are you going to cut the front and rear end off the MX5 and tube it? Haha
Thats the side effect of spring loaded chutes unfortunately. They drop first before taking air. I use c02 for my chutes. Do you have dump valves on the gearbox??
So close Scotty, so wanted the 8 for you, looks like you had some great help at the track, I haven’t forgotten the generosity of Street Machine and Drag Challenge, Simon and yourself. When I can I will PAY it forward……
F@#K YOU RAIN!! I think just about everyone feels that way about now mate! Looks like the Barra could end up being a winter winner. You could always throw a 50 shot of happy gas to get it to spool and kick the back half even harder.
Man, I was all excited to see the mx5 run into the 8's but didn't happen 😭 get a few things sorted and I'm sure next time we'll see an 8..... Good effort Scotty, better luck next time...
You would think with an additional 250hp you would better the previous PB, Tyres ?? Although it just sounds like it's not reving hard enough on the line
Sh!t happens Scotty as long as you guy's are having fun out there, Now tell us the Truth, do you think the car just hates you???? Or do you really just hate this car because it's not a Greek Mercedes (Valiant), What ever you choose to do to it you know we're still going to watch what ever you do to the Car's.
Time for more weight reduction, aero and wheelie bar if the budget agrees Could save some weight by cutting out the metal behind all the interior panels, plexiglass front window, aftermarket steering wheel, if possible carbon fibre body panels and duct tape over all the panel gaps I’d love to see this rig run a 7.9 or faster one day
So basically Scotty its almost 1 to 1 weight to power, thats what you need when dragging a car, but its about getting that power down to the road which is most important? Love to see you go up against does 9's ? Just to see if you can beat his 60ft times?
🤣😂😅 Scotty bro beating off the groupie girls with a stick.
arrgh what a grind but good on you for sticking with it 💪... Scotty-groupies gave me a chuckle 😂

Hey scotty, I liked that quick look at another blokes car , u should do that more often
You'll get it Scotty , I have complete faith in you & your crew !! 💪 🤙
That first soft launch...wow it's like you were leaving to go buy some milk haha. But then to see a 9.6 is impressive.
Wowee, the pedigree of the cars at the track (even the fords) 😍
Great episode Scotty
I vote if you get into the 8s you do the funky chicken dance and go to drag week in the USA with it and have a massive adventure with the Barra brigade there
Soon Scotty,8s are certain, love the channel and keep it up mate cheers 🍻🍻
22:23 😂😂 yes
LOL
Always next time mate, she still looks scary fast as frig and planted so that's a win👍
1. Add 200+ to any car and you'll have to look at your suspension to get it to hook.
2. Great to see Telf getting amongst it 👌👍
1500 hp and you get your 8s and maby better. See that in the next episode of ..... carnage ha ha. I waiting for that have a Nice weekend scotty.
Great work.
Sounds feckin' scary man, but be a cool ring tone for the phone.
Be safe big man.
Bet you felt 19ft when the young lady shouted "you're my hero Scottie!"
You ought to do a t shirt with mazda on it and it's time when it does it.
And have, scottie you're my hero on the back
whats crazy is i recognised that ute from the rear camera shot i hope he has that pump issue sorted was having some pump problems good to hear he is got it rolling pretty good looks so clean for a budget build
Cheers mate, yeh got it sorted was just a blocked filter of all things
I'm glad the car is still running and in one piece. Would be a shame to lose all that good work on the first day out. All in all still a good day
Fun fact.... all the great cycling speed records have been achieved in precisely this kind of conditions. Hot, dry days with a thunderstorm coming. The air is thin because it is warm and there less of it stacked above because it is rising because it is warm. That rising eventually creates rain. Good day for cycling: bad day for cars, unless you can compress the air enough...
And at altitude....that is until Ganna broke the hour record and individual pursuit recently.
that's racing Scotty, you think you have gotten it all sorted out but the car has other plans, put it down as a test and tune day and come back and run brackets, hopefully in the 8.??. 👍🙂
We rushed it too much, didn't have it sorted
Love it 😁
Paint it Taxi Yellow and repeat after me. "Where you want to go Mr Spotty Dog" Mid 8's for sure :-)
I read the comments before watching the video. Too much tension.
My guess that was the last meet for the year? You know it WILL happen, have yourself a well earned break with the family. Hopefully next time the temps are more favourable and we see that elusive 8 Merry Christmas.
My last meet for the year was today, so you have three more racing videos to see this year
Hahahah "Scottys my Hero!" Didnt she know you were doing celebrity things?? Such bad luck man - but really, its not that bad, thats a dam quick car still! Got nearly 1/2 a sec in it for sure...
Ahhh Scotty… feel for ya mate but keep ya head up and that 8 will come real soon! 👊🏻
How exciting ! Trial and error, back to the workshop to make her fly 🛠
U got it Scotty 8s is coming soon
I'm just happy to run on my dial in!
Scotty, the more effort involved getting there, the bigger the success! Keep at it!
I have no doubt you'll get there mate. All your ducks will line up.
My cars hate me too. Hope your luck is better on the next attempt. If it was easy, we'd all be running 8s...
The next time out is better but still a struggle, it'll be a rollercoaster ride of emotions
Happy bloody Friday 🍻
Very unlucky, tho you had to of known it was never going to be simple with you Scotty there's always a drama..looks a real "hang on" end track though the little Mazda.
We rushed things a bit and paid the price
Looks like you need "Winter Treads" Scotty.
Thats drag racing! If it was easy everyone would be running 8s
“Fuck you rain” 🤣
Few of us been saying that lately
I miss Heathcote. Been crook for the last 4 months, but looking forward to getting back up there ASAP! You guys rock. Thanks for keeping me entertained while i've been stuck in bed!
gonna have to do a Cleetus and use Nitrous to get it up on the 2step, he mounted a nozzle right the turbo intake, LOL
Haha, I remember that
I might start shopping around for an MX5😁
18 psi then send it Scotty
I think you could do an episode with all the great looking cars there
I would like to attend just to see them
Got to love Mexican weather hey 😂😂
Emotional roller coaster
Let's go just woke up to this
Barra life 😂 Ford must be giving some cash with that ranger. Feel bad for y'all.
The V6 diesel Ranger is amazing
Might need to spray it to get it up on the converter quicker.
That got to be the sickest mazda mx5 in the world 850hp and its from OZ SIIIICCCKK hang on to ya beard mate and go the 8 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Don't stress Scotty cooler day and a decent hook up you will piss it in👍🍻
Sounds like it needs a bit of giggle gas to get it up on the converter
Seeing i own a barra skid car best way to tell if its in limp mode rpm will not go over 3000 like you have stated
HI ALL
Scottie it needs a carbon fiber roof ? 6s awesome job buddy
The post man delivers it, just say'n.
Haha, delivery delayed. Check back next week.
Time for that Cleeter Spec Nitrous Spool Up Assist mod… hehe.
Shhhhh, check back Monday
Who would rather see one car get worked on to go seriously fast? Meee.
Rather than a few cars kinda working.
Watching Cletus and is team shows how important rear end setup is!
I'm sure if you cut the rear end off and spent thousands building a drag rear end 8.60s would be simple (once you learn the setup)
Its funny that you reference Cleetus who has a whole bunch of cars they constantly working on.

Ok so when are you going to cut the front and rear end off the MX5 and tube it? Haha
@@stephenthompson9722 the parts waiting game is a real problem in this post-Covid world
Yeah you're a hero. :)
Not a hero, just a guy having fun
@@STREETMACHINETV No true hero has a cape.
@@STREETMACHINETV 22:22 :)
More stall speed Scotty. You'll get it. The mph is middle 8s. 👍
Thats the side effect of spring loaded chutes unfortunately. They drop first before taking air. I use c02 for my chutes. Do you have dump valves on the gearbox??
Nah, I looked into and decided to chuck nitrous on it
Dang those BARRAmetric pressures, need to tune it in a giant hyperbaric chamber. 🤣
need to use some nitrous to spool the turbos up. cletus had the same issue in the states
Postman delivers it big fella
Haha
Old super mang would have a crack at its 60’ 😂
nitrous to bring it up bro you know what to do scotty
seen the mazda on the hume last week
"Went into limp mode" that's what she said!
Once you get it all sorted it'll rain 8s all day 👍
Time to hit the treadmill and the 8 will come nice work 🍻
Nah, no need for extreme measures
So close Scotty, so wanted the 8 for you, looks like you had some great help at the track, I haven’t forgotten the generosity of Street Machine and Drag Challenge, Simon and yourself. When I can I will PAY it forward……
Lol this thing takes almost as long to wind up the 2-step as a VL with a fully hektik turbo bro!
woohoo
If it was easy, it wouldn't be fun
😁🤘
That torque converter must be getting hot, really hot.
Mate my armchairs worth ! Ya need nos to spool up turbo !
F@#K YOU RAIN!! I think just about everyone feels that way about now mate! Looks like the Barra could end up being a winter winner. You could always throw a 50 shot of happy gas to get it to spool and kick the back half even harder.
Needs a spray nozzle infront of the turbo 😂
Race day problems
You should always show the time slip so you can see the travel time… and you can see the improvements
its the BAZDA
A little shot of nos for sure :)>>>
Iron out the launch and its home and hosed.
Is that a new sponsored car next to the MX5 in the pits ;)
Man, I was all excited to see the mx5 run into the 8's but didn't happen 😭 get a few things sorted and I'm sure next time we'll see an 8.....
Good effort Scotty, better luck next time...
What's that cage teched for, by the way? If you run an 8.49 will they kick you out?
It's Heathcote, probably not
You would think with an additional 250hp you would better the previous PB, Tyres ?? Although it just sounds like it's not reving hard enough on the line
It make all the power top end. Our trouble was we were trying to launch at our old rpm settings where the new combo wants alot more off the line
Gunna make it so much sweeter when it gets that 8. You might have to let it rip at Calder with the lower altitude to get it happening?
Not teched for Calder unfortunately
@@STREETMACHINETV ohhh bugger. See you at Heathcote then
Sh!t happens Scotty as long as you guy's are having fun out there,
Now tell us the Truth, do you think the car just hates you???? Or do you really just hate this car because it's not a Greek Mercedes (Valiant),
What ever you choose to do to it you know we're still going to watch what ever you do to the Car's.
The car just hates me at the moment
@@STREETMACHINETV we still Love ❤️ you Scotty,
You even had a fan there we could hear at the end.
Keep up the Good work mate.
Thank God Zane was there.

I’d love to see this rig run a 7.9 or faster one day
If you’re going to stick to that rear housing might need some co2 ,
So basically Scotty its almost 1 to 1 weight to power, thats what you need when dragging a car, but its about getting that power down to the road which is most important? Love to see you go up against does 9's ? Just to see if you can beat his 60ft times?
Hi Scotty what diff ratio do you run in this?
3.25
Needs a converter lockup
If it was easy everyone would be doing it
Hey Scotty , just wondering if you are going to race at Calder or is Heathcote the way to go?
I race at both, Heathcote has better traction though
STREETMACHINETV I heard that calder is not going to allow fast cars there. Not exactly sure if it's true and what time is classed as too fast either
completely of topic.. how's the Ryobi fridge go? run time ok?
Excellent. Runs all day, depending on ambient temperature
@@STREETMACHINETV fantastic cheers for the reply!!
Hoping they aren't too expensive when they launch (or I'm lucky)
Maybe you need to threaten it with a drive by Bubba?
😜👍🇦🇺
The weather was your enemy here I think (aside from the early fan issue), low air density and humidity, then that fucking rain. Next time!
Your bonnet from the camera view looks like its restricting air to the turbo.
That bloke in the white ute from S.A.
That is his 1st Rodeo lol.
YOU NEED A BLUE BOTTLE TO GET HER UP ON BOOST OR A HIGHER CONVERTOR . MY BETS ON A BLUE BOTTLE .
Shiny side up?... The little MX5 is many things to many men, but shiny she is not.
Ain't nobnobody denying she's fast though.
Time for nitrous
