When you start the stock car, turn on the fuel pump and watch the carburetor sight glass (small circle window, one on each end). When you see fuel it’s safe to start. It’s better to do that first, then crank the engine over for a second then while cranking turn on the ignition. Follow up with fan, water pump last so you have full battery to start.
That Roadster is easily one of the coolest cars I have ever seen, not even just super car just car period. You did that car right. Definitely never get rid of it.
The fact that Stephen used the whole bottle of starter fluid and they had the garage door closed while cranking it continuously slowly killing themselves of carbon monoxide is just hilarious.😅
Normally the battery on most stock cars is in a tunnel in front of the left rear tire for left turn weight distribution reasons. At least that's how it is on the current-gen nascars, hope this helps!
That is correct. You have to remove the tire. The batteries are designed to slide in and connect with a female/male blade terminal instead of cables for quick battery changes in a race if necessary
Watching y’all 3 try and start this car was the funniest shit I’ve seen all day 🤣 then u got Stephen still sprayin fluid down the intake when they stopped cranking 🤣🤣
Strad Man will fall in love with the V8. Especially with the new Z06. I can't wait for people to make performance parts for that engine. It's going to be mind blowning. I can see 750+ horses at 8,000 RPM.

Battery is in front of driver side rear wheel in the wheel well. Also, plug the oil tank heater in for like 30 minutes before trying to start! It'll start way easier!
I can’t believe how good that Lambo came out that thing is so sick that’s a definite seam car awesome job.👍💯🙏 your dad would be so proud and I’m sure he’s looking down at it you are games keep up the great work👍👍👍👍
The battery in a nascar can be always located on the left side of the car for the weight balance as well as it's a lot safer for them to be encased in a steel container beneath the car away from the driver. Thank you.
Ayo James dk if you read this but if possible you should put the Smart on the 6x6 at SEMA.... Like maybe you could get new rims or just powder coat them white to match the theme and then have it on the 6x6 bed at SEMA it'll looook soo sick... 🔥🔥🔥
The battery of a stock car/NASCAR is usually located in the frame to the left when you take off the left rear tire. There might be a little hatch or something that you need to open and you should be able to slide it out.👍
The battery is in the rear driver side wheel well. You have to remove the driver side rear tire and there is a compartment on the front side of the wheel well. But there should be charging pickups in the rear bumper I believe
The Three Stooges theme song was playing in my head while watching the starter fluid segment. That NASCAR sounds incredibly WICKED!!! Nothing like the sound of an earth moving rumble of a rowdy V8 engine.
you know, idk why these P*** bots are constantly commenting on my comments, but its harassment and illegal to advertise to a minor sexually explicit material. but it may be my fault for not wanting to put my actual birth year in my google settings but i fixed that.
The batteries is behind the driver seat,The left rear tire has to be taken off then look 👀 to your left toward driver seat.On a release latch ,slide the battery out.
Hey Strad! We met a while back in Carmel. We took a selfie out of the window of our cars in the middle of the street. I'm early so I thought you'll see it! Love the vids!!
Hello man how are you. I follow you a long long time now but i dont know why i havent watch you in so long and i remember this channel and im proud of you dude! I follow you since R8 and now when i saw how much new cars and everything like GOOD JOB!
Take the rear driver tire off, panel in the front of that wheel well is where the battery should be. Basically behind the driver seat. Hopefully a normal battery has been put in and not the typical nascar battery is still there.
@TheStradMan According to Google, the battery is on the back left side inside the cockpit, which is basically behind driver seat, but the location of the battery can vary in each years model so, but the most basic/standard location is behind driver seat.
Hey dude just so u know ur fuel line probably doesn’t have a check valve. If this is the case next time u try to start it after sitting so long instead of using starting fluid put a blow nozzle on an air compressor and put it where u fill fuel and push air into the fuel tank while trying to start. If there is an air compressor available. That should ox ur problem. Just make sure u put ur hand around the tank inlet to create pressure
I could be wrong but i believe the NASCAR battery is located behind one of the wheels, I remember watching NASCAR and seeing the pit crew change the battery behind the left rear wheel, but if not check behind the seat.
Yes! Strad has uploaded once again! Oskar has grown a heck of a lot, lol 😆 Edit: I'm not American so 2 questions. 1) Does a NASCAR/Stock Car have a choke? 2) What is the difference between a NASCAR and a Stock Car?
I do not know the answer for #1 so I will get back to you on that, but #2, a stock car is what this type of racecar is called. A "NASCAR" is not a thing. NASCAR is the organization that it races within. Calling it a NASCAR is the equivalent to calling LeBron James an NBA. NASCAR is an acronym for National Association of Stock Car Auto Racing. So grammatically, you are calling the car and National Association of Stock Car Auto Racing, which doesn't even make sense. Edit: To answer the first question, they used to use chokes until the 2012 season when they switched to electric fuel injection. The car that James has, however, does have a choke at it is a late 90s era car.
@@troyandrade435 Thanks you so much Troy! I really appreciate it, I am sorry for calling it the wrong thing and will call it a stock car from now on, also interesting about the choke, my Uncle has an old IndyCar I believe it is and it has a choke.. I don’t see why James didn’t use the choke, unless he did and just didn’t say.. Once again, many many thanks for the info! Very interesting. Stay safe 😀
@@troyandrade435 I am not the biggest fan of NASCAR, but I would love to watch a NASCAR race if I ever go to the states, but I really think the stock cars are sick! Although I can understand why people do like watching NASCAR..
I'm not sold on that widebody kit yet. The car looks great of course , it's a new C8! I think it's the black accenting the square-ish look of the fenders. I'm just not crazy about that part, maybe if the fenders were all blue and just a little bit of black accenting here and there. Idk, just my 2 cents.. still a sick car tho🔥✌

Yeah, that's about right. Father worked on a few, had a few in the garage, was very hard to work on. Scott has the best idea, do what he says!
Haha. Yeah. Ok. 👍 I’ll trust that
Yeah that quick start gets to be very hard on the engine.
Yes, exactly. 👆What he said.
Also, if he hasnt figured it out by now, batteries are under the left rear wheel well

I love when he does it
Every second day it works for me I love it

If only James could keep this consistency trend going for the rest of his youtube career. 💪💪 these videos are amazing
He’s on a roll.
For the future, NASCARs have the battery under the left rear wheel well, gonna have to take the wheel/tire off to get to it
The battery of a stock car/NASCAR is usually located in the frame to the left when you take off the left rear tire. There might be a little hatch or something that you need to open and you should be able to slide it out.👍
Ok I'm really loving the consistent uploads. It was like every 6 days but now it's like every other day and it's amazing
james is now consistent thanks to Luke, putting in the work man, thanks😊💚💚
Used some vacation hours and took a week off. James has uploaded nearly every day of it! Best week off ever! 🙌
I agree

The battery is in the rear driver side wheel well. You have to remove the driver side rear tire and there is a compartment on the front side of the wheel well. But there should be charging pickups in the rear bumper I believe
