thanks for the support let's get to it what we got going on bud well if you're looking at pan over there there's some metal which if you saw the last video when Floyd hit a rod bearing got joe over here from fast forward so we're under here and tyler and everybody else and they found some metal so we're we're doing the main bearing so it looks like uh what's what what's changing the issue here joe thrust thrust bearing thrust bearing getting it up so on the main we're just gonna this is a new one but right here this is what it ate up right here on the on the old one this is a new one so we got it we're gonna swap these swap them out thankfully we have yeah and uh we can get a change try it look at us now yeah you're yeah you do it all guy do it all gotta do it all with you all you'd be bored if you were just sitting there watching so you know trying to keep you keep you busy uh hey um vice grips are you that close you might not want to show this part no i'll let it out whatever you're all right we'll just clamp it here and just bump it and it'll just roll it right out it won't hurt the crank no he's gonna put on the thrust right here thank rush to the crank yeah right here and then we'll roll it right out all right yeah i trust you no you're a good one a little bit a little bit you're gonna eat this i'm dialed right there oh there it is oh my god hey yeah you see that on my classic car that's what that's the problem right there yeah yeah now why does it do that joe well i mean we got a lot of converter pressure sloping the crankshaft front to rear yeah it's trying to push the front of the crankshaft out of it and that's what this thrust bearing is for and it has little flats in it here yeah it's oil and we've just taken those away so once those just you know go away the oil can't disperse across the face of it okay so it doesn't work anymore so we've just ran it a little too long yeah that's all that's all that it is no no big deal no worries i thought that joely worked on coyotes hey i don't know if there's actually any worries but joe is telling me there's no worries definitely making me feel better you're good bud you're good you thought you're gonna up the t-shirt sales and when i when i was coming over here i was yeah yeah i was trying to see if they'd up my credit card for a weekend uh tyler confirm that that's the same part number as what we're putting in just wondering how to get it back up around yeah no that's it can't really no i think that's us but i'm not really sure that pro line does anything that's not any different yeah they're probably all the same right yeah you're not gonna have a 10 bearing it up you always want to take a look at it just to confirm man hey joe hey troy back in the day how many times did we do this no no well the best part is when it's about four in the morning and i'm laying right here and i'm like hey go grab a tool and then you can you catch about 30 seconds of we've done it i fell asleep many times over here when somebody goes get a tool all right so here's the fun part this has to go back no you can't yeah yeah and we don't have any way to turn the engine over we got to spin them over motor over backwards now because we were bumping it to get the bearing out it's got to spin it the other way to get the bearing back in yeah and they said we could spin it from the front oh so yeah he said you can just put yeah on the hex on the compressor yeah it's pretty cool so that's wild we're gonna spin this thing over if you think about though too it's pretty gear reducer you know it's it's uh whatever eight to one or something this way so it's that that way it will spin even easier boston said that they used to put so these used to have a drive back here on the back of the housing that you stick a half inch ratchet in and turn it but they had keyways in them and the keyways were shearing so now we're turning off the blower he only wants us to turn it counterclockwise we're gonna turn it off the blower which we need to turn it counterclockwise hold the bearing perfect that worked out good man stop hold on hold on that mallet i wish everybody could smell it teamwork makes the dream work tyler what's a big boys go to 185 huh 185 oh bro yeah bro that's gonna be a fun one well you gotta run them up so take your time here here here here go get that milwaukee and roll them up real quick you can we can run it up in a milwaukee yeah yeah yeah no problem we got three eights the half inch yeah what size socket is just give me the three eights with the right socket what size socket is that this one 180 or 185 this is your guy what'd you say 180 185 but you're gonna do it in a couple steps you're not going right there don't don't even don't even look at me like that all right we got here it's early it's like 8 45 yeah hold our class up so we're first class up get ready to put it on the ground i think we're gonna stay with the same tune up we had yesterday and we got our cars pretty fast blue uh trans am you seen that one oh we actually raced him in like uh q3 i think yeah that's car twin turbo car really nice car yeah super nice so we have him the second round i think there's only gonna be uh what 10 cars left nine cars left maybe yeah i think there's 10 cars yeah we had two buy runs and unfortunately there's a 19 car ladder with some buy runs so i think there should be 10 car bucks either way round two coming up this will be the coolest pass of the day after this the track is going to be scorching again like it was yesterday it's going to get really tricky so hopefully we can get down with this tune-up that's in it and uh we can go from there all right we're going into uh e2 here it's uh first thing sunday morning loading our tune-up in and uh gonna go out here and see what we do we've got this blue trans am right here i used to race no good guys got them for e2 let's see what happens out here yeah it should be a good day yeah it should be a good day well that was our first ever real route win i mean we won first round yep but that was our first competitive round win ever see yeah first round win ever with eagle against the actual car that was good so really didn't know what we're gonna have this morning like sun was out early my shirt is already drenched sun was out early it popped out but and then like what happened like some oil down or something yeah the guy in the right like we're in the left lane the guy in the right lane right before us uh had some trans fluid on the track so when they had the transfer they got to clean it up they literally had to like spray the track again after they prepped it so they had already prepped it three cars when they sprayed it again so it's really really good um but we still needed to you know get a tune-up that will work in the middle of the day so i didn't want to turn it up or anything like that so we just kind of went down made the trip and we'll go and review the data and hopefully have a better um a better grasp for when the sun is out i mean we spun yesterday and it was hot greasy um you know this car really hasn't spun much at all since we've been to the track i think it's been 18 or 19 passes since that car spun the tire yeah so it's been a long time you know the track was really beat up but we have to prepare for that if that happens again today so we've just been making strides in that direction even though the track is pretty good just trying to swallow our pride go down the racetrack get some data and try to think about the bigger picture and try to win the event so we have that turbo mustang there we go a lot of turbo mustang it's a satin black one with uh uh like made rockers hopefully the quarter panels are tagged on look quick heck i don't know it's no more me i'm in the car i don't even know who's up there that's a mustang yeah fox body and we're drag racing cameron 90 of the cars before the last five cars left we got such a great phone we got we got detroit iron over here you know we got a muscle cause what's all about he said it's a mustang nine out of ten to racetrack a mustang especially a cockspot yeah box body yeah all right well we'll see make sure that's who it is we'll make sure we'll get ready see you guys in the third round wait what happened cameron's super nervous super nervous like lighting one cigarette from the other nervous we're gonna get him some candies some candy cigarettes we keep talking about i gotta get him for the next race that would be diabolical get out here and play we don't need to call it call it edge edge it is all right brother i don't know what lane they want yet okay i'll let them look at it good luck be safe yes sir all right we're up here for round three and we have this mustang over here and i've seen this guy make a flip right here this thing's quick cars quick no time car twin turbo and i think we won the coin flip so in no time he either can draw a chip and i think otter even gets one lane but in this the way they're doing it is that it's on a ladder now and we flip for lanes and we won their coin toss yes do you know what lane we want oh we got to go not yet tyler's okay right now well tyler's gonna check out what lane thinks we want and then uh it's time to go racing third round how many cargo five six five six uh six six three after this this is racing for the buy run on our side of the ladder oh so if we win this is quarters yes so if we win this we'd have a buy of the semis to the finals round four is round three round three round three yeah yeah so all right we got this mustang over here see how we can deal with it boy it is humid all right these cameras we got them on for this one we have had some technical difficulties we've been working our butts off in between rounds i don't know how the batteries were dead on some of those maybe last run i haven't talked to you guys after a run in a few passes and uh we just won that round there which is third round fourth round is a competition by to the finals so we are going to the finals it's hot sun has been in and jamie is coming off of a race out of town he's had layovers everything else he's been trying to catch up on rest so we've been trying to get together all day on all these runs coming up with a plan and uh the last two runs well the last three runs have been well executed we did spend the one time in the heat the track was really bad so we've just backed up some and just really trying to be race you know try to be smart race smart to get to the finals um everybody always worries about the finals you have to you have to race round by round and get to the finals before you can even think about the finals so that's what we've been doing we've uh we've secured our spot there so now we'll go up there with this bi run try to see what the track looks like and see if we can take advantage of maybe making a run i don't know if we need to or not i really want to depending on what it looks like i may want to try to step this thing up just a little bit from where we are because we the other carts on the other side of the ladder is fast it has a you know is capable of winning as well so i want to make sure that we got all of our ducks in a row for the final so that next round possibly is crucial to try to turn this uh car up again and get it running a little bit faster for finals but uh come back to you next we'll see you guys next round all right we are back that was round three we got the win it is hot out here the track is very marginal at this point in time sun's been out in so we've really been working on the car trying to get it to uh be very stable out there and try to work towards getting to the finals this next round is a bi run to the finals so we actually are going to go all the way at this race to the finals no matter what got to see uh what we're going to do this run we may go up there we're going to use this as an opportunity to opportunity to make a couple changes kind of see where we're going to land for the finals as far as weather goes and uh make a decision as to what we're going to do we've got another guy on the other side of the ladder who's no slouch scotty g with the corvette he runs good he has a nitrous car so we do have a little bit more horsepower than he's got so i i am thankful for that but he is lighter than we are so he can 60 foot a little bit harder so it's definitely can't take him lightly so we're going to make some uh some moves and do some things next run try to make maybe a half track pass make sure everything's good get ready for the finals we'll see you there on the starting line all right we're back at it again this time for it doing it we're going to raise the crankshaft just a tiny bit more again in the heat we got to get that weight moving and back on the back tire quick maybe sadly doesn't think it's going to wheelie they said raise it up we got wheelie control your wheelies but we haven't even gotten there yet we got to get the front end up we got to make the trip so we got to make it down that's number one you saw yesterday everybody struggled if you don't make it down the other person makes it down no matter how fast you are you're not going to make it like troy just said to the wheelie control even though we're raising the crank what it'll do is kill a bunch of timing in the sense of the car's wheeling and how that happens with this laser here this laser points at the ground and i'm assuming they just have a parameter in the tune-up that then it gets to x it pulls y it goes farther keeps pulling more it goes off how many inches the car is up on that laser sensor typically we get on our normal runs this sensor obviously is off the ground a little bit but we get about five inches okay of travel yep on this side of the car with that sensor on a normal run then once it goes up it'll start it'll start killing her tickets take it away yep but raising the crank will help get down and i'm on a marginal track i don't know what's going to be there's still some some uh cloud cover now but it's gonna be hotter than it was this morning we didn't pass the night so we got to get down number one we're raising the crank we'll get gotta take it round by round you can't you can't worry about the finals if you don't get to the finals all right we're also adding a little bit more weight that was we're not adding weight we're taking it from the inside of the car all the way to the back it's only five pound buck or so 10 pounds total in front of the front of the wheel tubs to a little bias change same weight just trying to get it to go down the greasy track make a few little adjustments you nervous on this one or what i'm nervous on all of them we're gonna buy around so a little less nervous man oh man what do we got right now we're in desperate need of a pedicure my feet are smoked all in callus we're in desperate need of that my pinky toes about roasted off after walking 20,000 steps a day uh other than that it's hot yeah i feel bloated i'm gonna go back on a diet this week i'm gonna bring cameron with me on the diet and then uh other than that we're out here racing yeah up here take this bye run sun is in and out behind the cloud we're gonna see what kind of track prep they give us we're gonna see if we can motor this thing down through there do some weight and uh we're gonna come back for the finals and our concentration when we get back from the finals it's going to be uh yeah enough you're breaking the beams we made a lift we're gonna make a lift excellent so uh concentration is gonna be tyler listing in concentration after this round is gonna be getting the car cooled off you know the problem is in florida is that the car so hot outside right now it's almost 90 and that's just air temp like all this asphalt everything is 115 degrees so you can't really get the car cooled off like i'd like so we got to get back and get extra fans we'll gather some extra ones up and get this thing cooled off really good for the finals tranny was like 110 i'd like to see it around 100 engine was still a little bit warm so i'd like to see that cooler it does make the oil a little thinner it brings oil pressure down so hot oil is fast oil but you know we want to want everything to be a little bit cooler so to prep for this he doesn't know that i already found all of our cooling blankets they got them ready i was looking for it so i get to the top end of this round and we go ahead and put the cooling blanket on the tranny and probably knock about 50 50 to 60 degrees off before it gets back to the pit this guy i was looking for that cooling blanket too i was gonna put it in the cooler you already took care of it that's good it's good so we'll be ready how are we feeling feeling good feeling good if it goes down right here i'll feel even better but i think depending on how everything else runs out we may get a little bit of shade on the track for the final so again if it ends up being scotty either way both those cars are fast but it ends up being scotty and scotty's good racer been racing a really long time knows how to race the track knows how to race so does troy so it'd be a really good race pretty equal cars to be honest i think both of them run really similar yeah having a blast we're heading to the finals eagles first final cameron johnson's first final no cameron's ever oh cameron's won before cameron's first final with eagle so i'm sure the boys are all gonna be pumped up just did a little planned shutdown right there i was gonna run it to 330 but the engine's so hot like i was telling you guys before i just let it step off the tire off the start line go about 100 feet shut it off it's good always it makes it off the start line that's all i cared about we're heading to the finals we'll see you guys up there all right so they about killed me from heat exhaustion yeah yeah yeah and then you're trapped in there we mr ryan smith did some uh we got some serious head pads you know which are great for safety i go to get my freaking hands off i'm like i can't get it i'm tired i'm just like i give up hardly i'm like such a pain yeah hey man bro we're in the finals going to the finals i'm five thousand i thought for first five i said no cameron's been to the final just first final with this car yeah yeah yeah first final with this car how many cigarettes uh i need all of them getting a whole pack i need to hold yeah my legs i might need like a chair or something up there even on this one for sure but this is cool because this is a race everyone's wanted to see all week yes and it's happening in the finals where it should happen and i think they're gonna let us be they told us they're running us last last two cars down the racetrack wow so all right that's good that's good i like it i'm gonna tell jamie to uh we get on with papa jamie and we're gonna tell i'm gonna tell him he could do whatever he wants to about you know make sure we got the start line 200 foot to that finish line oh yeah give it everything yeah i don't even care if we got to work on no i don't care if we got to put heads on a 200 feet on or anything no matter drop the hammer yeah the whole hammer drop the hammer whatever he could do been going all week down to the last round try not to pass out on you guys it's hot out here it's brutal pouring that water over my head this cool embrace cooling products do hickey i call it around my neck cooling off for the finals do go up there and do this for you guys stay tuned all right it's time for the finals we actually haven't been back over here super long it's only been maybe 30 35 40 minutes at the most it's time to go back up the race everyone's gonna want to see us for scotty g and we'll get up there and we'll flip for lanes and uh may the best car of the day win great pull up for the finals it's hot let's do this thing that's it you ready tyler oh born ready all right we've been here a lot of times let's go do it again we're lifting up our brother troy to you and we're praying that you would be with him to continually guide him to keep him safe and straight and bless his efforts today when we pray in jesus name amen amen god bless you brother thank you let's go are you folks at home that one was for you guys let's go baby no what you got going on yeah let's go baby all right that was good i don't mean to take you to the top of the second race all right they're better oh man honestly it's like i told scotty bro like that's two cars on property yeah that's what people do it like in the heat like dude like that's those conditions that's not easy for anybody that is not easy for anybody to make the trip on 135 degree track yeah it's crazy jamie's at uh at home tuning from the couch or something oh but we've been uh we've been texting all day sending updates on the track tempter senate i'm sending jamie pictures of the sky he's tired of seeing florida i'm like bro look clouds no clouds clouds i told him we got up there it's 135 degrees i'm like he had already sent me the gym we'd already talked we're like it's gonna be the hottest part of the day when we go up there yeah and uh i get up there i was like almost gonna call him again and uh i didn't i'm just like you know what i'm leaving his hands we'll go up there and do what i do so that's it jamie's bad dude he's the best we moved some weight around we moved the front end did everything we had to do we had one aborted run the whole time we've been here really bad that round we had to do it all over again i think with the weight in there in the front end up we would have won that probably win you know but you got to have those passes to learn so i'm happy to i don't know what to say joshua night and killed it y'all killed chilled i don't go selling our tune-ups to nobody all right i don't got the access all right we're going to steak or what i'm buying now i'm buying yeah i mean we got together oh we're going up a lot of them we got a lot of them together we're going up got a lot of them together wrong now we
