NHRA Seattle engine rebuild on John Force's car. 

Wow...now that's teamwork! Crazy to think they would do this meticulous procedure 3 to 4 times a race!

the worst thing about racing is the mechanics are the real heroes of the sport and nobody ask for their autographs without them racing would not happen. SO GIVE THE HEROS BEHIND THE SCENES THE GLORY AND KUDOS THEY DESERVE.

The crew members are straight up STUDS and the unsung heroes...amazing talent 😎

The driver works for four seconds, and the real workers are those guys. Respect for all of them.

mad props to the guy who spent the entire time under the car.

As much as I wanted to see Brit and Court, thanks for sticking with the guys! I respect what they are doing!

To whomever made this video I really do appreciate your time and effort in getting the engine rebuild. I'm from Seattle and a Force fan. Thanks 100!!!

Thanks so much for sticking around and filming the full tear down and rebuild process - much appreciated!

This was like watching an orchestra in perfect harmony. Wow, beautiful.

Imagine if the US government could work that efficiently

These guys are the very best of the best in the motor racing world. Doing complete tear downs, rebuilds and all under the watchful eyes of NHRA officials. John Forces team is buck. These guys just rock. 🔧🧰

Those guys are insane. I have alot of respect for those gentlemen. 👍

So much of my life's best memories has been attending drag racing events across Europe and the US. Like this, I'd just stand there in awe and watch these guys tear the motor down and rebuild it., then run from crew to crew as they leak test and set the motor for the next run. They say smell can trigger memories, for me, the sound of the ratchet gun, a blower spinning up before engine fire up, and the change in sound the engine makes when it switches over to nitro......always bring an automatic smile and takes me back :-) Thanks for posting!

Notice: not much talking during the re-build. They have a job and have forty-five minutes to do it and that is all they do. No playing around..very professional.

Thanks for posting this. Most Point Of View vids stop after they get the heads off. Its nice to have a full length video which shows the whole process.

Dang! I wanted to hear them fire it up after all that symphony of motion!

This is awesome... I worked for the nhra as staff and security when they was in NH... It was amazing... Those funny cars are crazy loud.

Unreal that this team is perfected to the point they can almost build blindfolded.

I'm a sports car guy. I go to the IMSA, SCCA, and SCDA races at my local track. (Lime Rock Park) I drive a souped up little Miata that's in the barn for the Winter. I have never really understood that peculiar American invention; the drag race. However, I stand in dumb-struck awe of NHRA mechanics. For my money, they are the real wizards on race day. Adendum; John Force has more money invested in torque wrenches than I do in my whole tool kit.

Damn. I wish this video would have gone all the way to re capping the car's outer again. I wanted to use it as a way to show how the best teams of people interact. You see how they all just naturally know their jobs? Very little back and forth discussion, zero bosses acting like bosses. Just a true team getting the job done together. It was a symphony!

Damn that young fella seems to know his shit really well!! Hats off I am impressed by the team!

Fantastic Teamwork, and such Professionalism by the Crew signing autographs.

Happy to see, Johnny Flores back in action. One of the Great drag racing drivers of all time. Good luck to the Force team this year. 👍👀😃🍀🍀🍀🍀

Great teamwork! Cant wait to go to another drag race. So much behind the scenes work besides just the racing!

Thanks for posting this. Really good seeing how it's done.

Absolutely incredible JOHN FORCE....you and your team are an inspiration. G'day from South Australia

To me john force is my hero. He never forgot where he came from, he is not a quiter, he gave his wally to the mayor and sheriff of the town for getting a race track built and gave the truck driver the chance to race. And when he wrecked bad, they asked how he felt and he said" I saw elvis" how can you not love this man that jumpd fences for his fans and stays positive no matter what. GOD bless ya John force

This is excellent footage of the team mechanics working like a swiss watch. 👏

By watching John Force and Top fuelers i can see that this is not just a hoby, this is a livestyle.

I have built many a motor and trans in my life as well as install them (when I was young, dumb and full of it)But to watch these pros tear down and build up a 1000 hp motor in just under 30 minutes is amazing. And to see that there are around 8 guys on it at any one time makes it even more wonderful to see. These guys have it times down so perfect that as soon as one side of the motor gets done with a tool they just hand it off to the other side that is waiting for the same tool. That is not to say they were "waiting" it was just a matter of a few seconds of a wait. I just wish I could have seen the blower tear down and rebuild since that has to be an even better precision build than the rest of the engine. My truck has bi turbos that I tore down and built back up this year and even with only 1 person to do the job it still took ME 2 days to get it right. It is going to be a sad day in racing when the FORCE family retires someday as they have a lot of talent that they "new/young" drivers could learn from. Whom ever made the video you also did 1 hell of a job there was not a lot missed during the filming. All in all thank you for a great 30 minutes of excitement and great job

Now these are the kind of guys you want working behind the counter in a parts store 🏬

What a teamwork and fast , few times a day, respect for those man 👌

Just saw my first NHRA event last week, didn’t know I missed out on this my whole life! Hope this becomes more socially diverse. Speed is for everyone!

I once got to meet Mr John and was glad I meet him in the way I did it was west of Salt Lake at a cool down area, after a time I bid him farewell as I didn't get paid unless my tires were turning Great Guy and has always been my favorite NHRA racer ....I think this was the race he was heading for at the time if memory serves me right. Mr John God Bless you and your girls. Thanks for the once and a life time opportunity to meet you and shoot the bull for bit that memory is greater than anything. Be Safe all y'all. PS I know this video is a bit old but figured I would share my one time experience with Mr John Force :)

This team is a well-oiled machine, no pun intended.

Feels like home in the pits. LOVE IT!!

That is crazy great team work John Force re build a engine in 30 minutes awesome.

May the Force Be WITH THEM

as much as time is their enemy, not one of these fine mechanics has a watch on...they know exactly how much time they have and what to do in that time frame..great footage..

watching this remeinded me of my hot rod days, there was one week when i would come home from work and change my head gaskets and drive the car to work the next day and i did this three times in one week until i found out what the real problem was but when you do enough of this stuff it just comes naturally for guys like this

I'm a mechanic for 19 years when u do something over and over and over every time it becomes a routine every man have a job to do that's y they can teardown and rebuild so fast it called teamwork.

I know it's nearly 4 years ago & technology today is greater but wow shows when a team work together totally awesome..

And all the time there's an unsung hero working on his back under the motor. I hope he get's an extra beer at the crew bbq. Great video too. What the heck, extra beers all round!

Truely inspirational stuff....John Force Crew.

And all John does is Drive it . And a Place 4 everything when U Change the Engine . They are the Guys That Win or Lose U a Race Top Work Guys .Been Watching John From Back in the day .In UK

Dayum, honing with one hand and inspecting pistons with the other. I tip my hat sir.

Better choreography than I’ve seen in a Michael Jackson dance routine! Top guys, poetry in motion!😎

It's like watching ant building their home, no bosses and a lots of accomplishment. Good luck John and crew.

The funniest part was the Hemi valve covers with the Chevrolet Bowtie logos on them. LOLOL!

The header and head comes off in one piece. Spent all weekend installing long tubers on my Stang :)

Not a huge Force fan, but this is simply amazing to watch.

John Force..Nice guy and great team. We always look forward to seeing the force family in indianapolis at the U.S Nationals.

Incredible to see just insane big props to them guys

If only our government operated this smoothly and effeciantly!! Kudos to you for this video!

I definitely would have stripped or broken something, beautiful to watch

lol @ 2:55 when the dude tries to yank the head off and realizes he missed like 9 bolts. D'oh! Yeah, ...that's your mechanic John.

No start up!!! I wanted to see the Nitromethane make eyes water. Great video. Master mechanics. Each one of them.

If i ever go to visit my sister staying in Texas, i most defenitely will visit Thunder vally for the whole day to watch Top fuelers.

This video started the same way it finished. Looks like 10 guy's on, and 10 guy's off. With static people in between... WOW... Good Job Stay Safe and Stay Blessed.

Some of the best engineers i've seen.

GREAT 👍 GREAT 👍 TEAM WORK! JOIN YOU HAVE A GREAT TEAM! ENJOYED THIS GREAT VIDEO ! THANKS!

geeze...i've waited longer for oil changes

That was a great video of god damn art work !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AMAZING!!! THUMBS UP TO THAT CREW!!!!

Man, these men sure earn their pay. Great Video. It takes me 30 minutes to fuel my car. These guys are talented to say the least.

The greatest funny car racer ever. John force.

I hung out with John for about a half hour during a test session after the st louis race. If you only knew the stories this man can tell!

These guys are doing an in frame rebuild in 30 minutes. Let that sink in!

It's Fascinating to see them go that quickly to rechange an engine

Without these specialized mechanics the Winner's Circle would not be possible

Precision at it's best.

I seen a kid once change his head gasket. Inside 30 mins on his Honda street racer..He blew a head gasket. Pulled into the parking lot. Had his tools out like Flash Gordon..He had it up and running and gone.. I think he watched these guys a few times..As he had to know every bolt, nut and size...And it was timed right the first time....

That's a lot of stuff for 30 minutes....wow!

Thank you. Great video.

The specialized technician mechanics are the real true heroes in in racing they are the real true winners

There's nothing worse than the morons who stand and holler at every driver when they are trying to work. This is their job and you are watching. John and his family/drivers are some of the nicest and most approachable drivers in the sport and make themselves available more than anybody else for promotions and signatures. When they are working let them work, they will sign and shake hands on their time, not on your time they need to be working.

Thanks for the video.

A good video, and team, little talk just action 🧐

cool vid of an amazing team!

Don't let our grass roots tracks die show your love to the #freedomfactory needs your support

Thanks for sharing !!!

The people paying attention to their lunches while ignoring the engine tare down and reassembly obviously have no interest in how things work. They are more interested in getting their hats signed.

Lol at the Chevrolet badging on the Chrysler style hemi!

I just love watching top fuelers.

great teamwork...i like it

Hard to believe I went to college with some of these guys lol

this was something else to watch wow .

The shorts are pretty amazing.

hitting it with a mallet .....technical term haha but wowzers this shit is crazy i have a new found respect for the mechanics and behind the scenes crew for being able to do this like such well oiled machine multiple times in one race day ....DAAAAAAAAANG good shit hellllll yeaaaaa brother !!!!

amazing.... me encanta la mecanica...esto es increible...!!

John force is my hero in drag racing since i was a kid nobody like him and his daughter Brittany awesome racers #1 forever

WOW imagine if a team of surgeons could work on a human body with precision and such Awesome teamwork there would be a lot of human beings save today

JOHNS A REAL DRIVER! John P.

Grate thanks for your video.

I keep,thinking I could easily be one of those mechanics That clutch man is a hustler

the art of teamwork.

Only people that know what is going on can really truly appreciate

Really cool to see every detail. I was surprised that they replaced sleeves in some of the cylinders but did not replace any of the piston rings. I would have thought that if one was damaged, then so would the other.

I went to Seattle to see these races John force 150

Great how they work together better than doctors , awesome ..
