Edelbrock Sick 66 is going to race at Albuquerque Dragway and Alien City Dragway - come and see us at the track: www.sickthemaga...
We're hitting Route 66 for Edelbrock Sick 66 and it's day six which is a drive day over the mountains of New Mexico! The Dodge Hurricane Ramcharger is ready to cruise on Route 66 on our way to Roswell but we have SUV competition in the form of Steve Morris and his Trailblazer! Are you Team Red or Team Blue? We have drag-and-drive teams from across the nation ready to go. They are the real Street Outlaws and just like Sick Week or Drag Week this event is decided by who has the quickest average across the week. Keep watching each day as we will have daily uploads. See the sights like abandoned gas stations, motels, ghost towns and more of Route 66 with classic cars.
Man that jeep wrangler on the track hawk frame and suspension was awesome!! That had to be some work!!
Tom your really doing a great job of showing America and it’s history! This is another of your best videos!
I've been watching drag and drives for a long time. What amazes me is the cars are getting quicker but whats amazing is the cars are getting very reliable. Keep up the good work.
I've cracked 2 weld draglites 15x3.5" fronts over the years, those skinny wheels don't take the road use. Had a triple disc billet Duramax converter leak thru a porus weld once. Stuff like that seems to pop up when least wanted.
16:04 Excellent! Love that color.
idk if anyone ever tried but modern bicycle tyres run tubeless with the help of a sealant, which is usually some sort of silicon flakes in silicone milk. If you get a puncture, it self-seals because the flakes clump up together at the puncture and reseal it. Might work as a quick patch with small cracks like that, especially since it works on bike tyres with 120psi on them.
I have Harley’s with spoke wheels and they have a black rubber strip sealed to the rim where the spokes come through the rim so even something like that would keep the center of the wheel sealed. On dirt bikes I used to put a lot of “Tire Slime” in them even before getting a hole in them because it was inevitable that I was going to puncture them and it always helped doing that. That slime quite possibly is made of the silicone based products you’re talking about, but that stuff relays on centrifugal force to spread all inside of the tire so it would never make it to the inner part of the wheel let alone stay there, it would help in tire punctures though. However in Toms case with the cracked wheel I feel any sort of leak prevention on the rim itself wouldn’t give him an indication that the wheel is failing and about to break. If it wasn’t leaking he would have ran that wheel till it breaks and that would either be at an inconvenient time or a very dangerous time. It’s best the leak was there to show him the wheel was failing.
@@deegan727 Yeh, bicycle rims have a rim tape aswell, wasn't sure if it was enough tho. For the sealant you can keep the tyre on by removing the valve stem, which removes the hassle of removing the whole tyre. Thought it might be a bit easier than removing the whole thing.
@@deegan727 But I agree, after fixing the punctured tyre in this case I would've looked deeper into it anyway and only done it if I knew it really was a pin hole and no crack or anything.
Also the bicycle stuff is literally thick milk, so if you can hop the tyre around on its own under pressure it could get to the pin hole and driven in there by the escaping air.
Thanks for the video!
Can't complain Tom, you knew what you were up against on the original Route 66, you even told the rest of the participants
Jemez Springs!!!!!
Mag is sick
Yessir let's ride brother 💯🇺🇲🏁🏆🦅
I really appreciate your commitment to excellence! Your videos are always so high quality and interesting.🐇🔷🐰
Put a tu e in the tire or Jb weld the hole shut. Last resort, fix a flat! 😂
The new inline six was definitely holding its own it sucked the rim ended up failing but nothing a Route 66 muffler shop couldn’t toss some bubblegum welds on a couple of times to keep you rolling.
Great video 👍
My 2¢, not a fan of the lights on that nice ride, makes it look like a PT Cruiser light.
The bicyclists have a sealant they use for to going tubeless. Some guys have used it for sealing porous Volvo wheels. Almost any bike shop will have some. Pull the valve core, add a few ounces of sealant, air the thing up and bounce it around a bit.
But then, tire stores generally have a few wheels in stock.
Are you going to eventually do a give away contest on that Ram Charger?
Nice video 😊
This train dont stop in Tuchumcari.
What's not to love, most countries wouldn't allow any of this, traffic mob would be all over it, and vosa too be chopping people down. Hellava shame folk can't have a little fun in life... you're so lucky to be cruising free...❤
Does anybody out there have a tube that will fit in this wheel and tire please send it to Tom Bailey
Salt of the earth northerners meeting the Salt of the earth southerners. Wish I could follow much less compete. Maybe soon. Maybe
Not shocked he broke down..... Im sure steve"always blowing motors" morris isnt to far behind from breaking down
What?
@@sirnate54 pretty sure I wasn't speaking to you I'm pretty sure your name is not Tom Bailey or Steve Morris so keep moving pal
@@WhiskeyThrott_706
Wow... Why so angry?
@@WhiskeyThrott_706
Can you point to the spot on the doll where the mean ole guys on video make you sore?🤣
@@sirnate54Hey bought an SMX , did his own tuning and blew it up now he blames Steve
