The world's quickest street car hasn't done anything in over a year. So what's the point of keeping the Sick Seconds 2.0 Camaro like it is? It's kinda sad.
I realize that there are some things that really need attention on the car if its going to win Sick Week or another Hot Rod Drag Week. I'm officially DONE with bandaids and now is the time to get to doing race car things! The lesson I'm taking from this is that there is only so far you get in life patching over problems. Eventually you need to take them on head on. And truth be told, the competition is coming. Brett LaSala and the Snot Rocket just made it into the threes in testing and we keep hearing rumors Cleetus McFarland has some kind of secret project underway to take away my title.
We have four cars to get ready for some spring testing. Back to the regularly scheduled programming over the next few weeks with lots of racing videos.

Bob possesses the natural skills of a communicator and as an educator. These skills, along with his hard earned race mechanic abilities makes him a great candidate for a second Bailey and Bob channel.

With an expensive engine (depends on your budget) it is always best to clean injectors after sitting for extended time periods. A few weeks sitting with ethanol (blended or straight ) fuels humidity can cause problems.

@rustyh8806 2 месяца назад

Without the Tender coils on the rear shocks, if it tops out and gets slack in the spring. You can loose your bottom spring cup. Highly unlikely, but it happens a lot in rock crawlers until they run tender coils. Also what you used for your removable trans cross member, might not be legal per the SFI rule book. I called and asked about them and they said NO. But no one with authority will ever see it, unless maybe you point it out in a video or something.

@davidgough1161 2 месяца назад

will there be a trans tunnel to keep fluid off of the driver? that would make me happier as the driver, personally!

Bob sporting the Gold ICON ratchet... was that a gift from Tom? lol I also noticed the Banner Engineering ride height sensor, that's interesting because we make Fiber Optic light guides for Banner. And I enjoyed the increase in time lapse videos of the hands on work. I always felt like that was left out of the previous videos and we only got updates before, it's a nice change.

you need to put oil in that jack for the Transmission, it shouldn't jump like that when it starts to get to the end of stroke, otherwise you're doing a great job 👍

@Spike-sk7ql 2 месяца назад

That was the air over hydraulic. That looked like they did the air part 2nd instead of first, and you have the regular jack part for when youre close and need finer adjustment. Those pedals are touchy. You really should do that part first. The bottom half is an air over hydraulic, and the top half is a normal pump up jack. The one I have is made by sunex.

Find a better agent 😂 It's also pretty well understood the insurance won't cover the car at the track. Should be easy to get street coverage with the caveat that you're no longer insured once you hit a dragstrip.

@@Chris_Harrisyes you're supposed to run pump gas through it or his fuel system is going to have so much moisture in it it's going to be pretty much shot after a year sitting like that.. and Steve said Tom is one of the worst when it comes to maintenance he likes to just park them after Long drag n Drive events and then start them way after Steve threw his buddy under the bus lol and when you tore down his engine on camera you could see all the rust and why he should have listened caused all his valve springs to rust and start breaking methanol and even e85 can wreak havoc on fuel systems if you don't maintain them correctly

@Chris_Harris 2 месяца назад

@@Rrapscallion No, it's not. I'm in Canada, and it's called Gasoline because its chemical name is Gasoline. You might use slang to call a single chemical named Gasoline "petrol" where you are, but I assure you that if you look in a chemical guide, it's called Gasoline. Here, let me google for you... *Petroleum, also known as crude oil or simply oil, is a naturally occurring yellowish-black liquid mixture of mainly hydrocarbons, and is found in geological formations. The name petroleum covers both naturally occurring unprocessed crude oil * See that? Petro(leum) is crude oil, not Gasoline. I kind of hate how places like you live bend or use a slang word and then think that it's the actual word. Let's talk Tires and the slang Tyres. Or Curb or the slang Kerb. Correct spelling versus your local slang.

@Chris_Harris 2 месяца назад

@@freedomfox8183 Oh I completely agree. He's done this before. You can't leave methanol in an engine for even a couple of months without starting to damage metal and eat away at things with rubber. Even a normal car rots things if you leave it to sit for a while or worse, let it sit on the grass. Think of all those cars you've seen being sold while parked on grass because there's no other place to show them from. Water from the dew rots EV-REE-THING. But look at their program. They wanted to race the Durango so they ignored the FAST car. Steve has a problem commonly called "having too many irons in the fire". He needs more people and to grow or he needs to shrink. One or the other. Drop car and magazine things or keep rotting cars.

It's a GearVender. It split's the 3 tranmission gears so you have a 6 spd essentially. Same idea as 'rigs splitting gears to keep the engine in the power better.

@NBSV1 2 месяца назад

It’s a planetary gear set with an engagement clutch. When it’s off you get a direct drive. When it’s on you get an overdrive. The main idea is giving you a final overdrive to reduce engine RPM when cruising.
