Do you think the shot bag would have come out if the front end stayed on the ground ? Looks like it should have stayed in even under these circumstances and I think that's what NHRA must have thought. If it had come out when the front end came back down, NHRA might have let it slide. Not saying what is right or wrong, just throwing out some thoughts on this.
How much of a car guy you are Clay. I would expect most guys that can regularly jump in 500km/h top fuelled rocket would be done doing that. But in you down time you’re out in the shed working with your mates on your own cars . So cool. Thank for the Holden reference as well. Good luck for the next round!
In australia when we use to have the holden factory, we made this gto/holden chassis and body however the engine was always gm produced. We call the gto a ( holden monaro) here is australia 🇦🇺
Some useless trivia. In 2006 Holden dropped the Monaro name. I believe because of running parts stocks down and a surplus of GTO badges etc. the last 170 cars made for the Australian market in 2006 were all GTO. In 2 groups all with LS2 6ltr. 1st 100. 50in black 25 in yellow 25 in red. Mine is a red. The last 70 numbers in reverse 1 being the last all red but had extra goodies like stainless headers. They were called the signature series GTO possibly the most desired.
I hope you fitted a Harrop Diff Cover to stabilise the rear and give it more oil capacity as the diffs in those get hot due to not having enough oil capacity.
Hey Clay, your #1fan Dayton Ohio, I'm from Johnson City, Tennessee. I can't get enough of your channel thank you for what you do, love you brother, PEACE ✌
Russell your comment is obviously your opinion and you are entitled to it. With that said you don’t know anything about Mike or his skills or his accomplishments from seeing 20-30 seconds in my video.
Setting here on Sunday no nhra final rounds but caught your video and enjoyed it. As always great to go along with you on your adventures. Stay safe till next time.
I just love your videos, blood on the hands and arms just like me when doing stuff. You are so cool Clay, so Happy that I met you at Vegas and Pomona last year. I will be hoping to visit the NHRA in 2025 and seeing you again. As England is a long trip I want to try to get two meetings.
It came from a big box home improvement store. They have not held up very well frequently busting the fittings. I have been replacing them with better fittings as they break.
