This is a LONG one guys, but this was a very long day to say the least. After an easy day yesterday, while pulling into the track I heard a squeal. We lashed the valves and found out that a broken lifter and didn't know what we were going to do. Thankfully we had all the parts and started 3 hours of thrashing.
After thinking we had it resolved, we burnt 2 push rods after 15 minutes of driving on the road. It was a long day but we adapted and kept rolling 😅

It’s so obvious that Nolan at Isky really knows his stuff, it’s impressive Isky’s commitment to the Drag & Drive community. Well done.

@rjohnsrealestate 19 дней назад

Can't put a price on the knowledge of Nolan and the value of him being there and Isky supporting Drag and Drive. There is a reason they are the leader in the Industry

All the Taylors are badasses! To Dennis, Deb, Alex, Meg, Nick and Todd. This is one really badass family, thanks for sharing all of the adventures. Stay badass! Much thanks to all who provide help and support! Big thanks to Nolan, one of the nicest guys ever to work in the industry, got to meet him briefly at VMP. He is the nicest guy ever!

Don't forget Mika (sp.?). She was there in support too !!!!

@larryreece1403 19 дней назад

I really appreciate the in-depth discussion about the cam and lifters. Not that I will ever be running that high end of an engine, it helps us dummies better understand what's going on inside the engine.

@irahubscherjr6629 19 дней назад

Steve Morris did a video on his springs breaking after running a constant 2500rpm for a couple hours on the drive part. He said the broken springs is something to do with harmonic resonance, where all springs have a specific resonance at a continuous rpm for long periods, that will break the spring, especially when your running .900 lift and running 2500rpm.

Steve Morris with that little lifter cardboard trick on cleets car just the other day.

@54raceman 18 дней назад

Yep I caught that to that When dennis mentioned that steve said he had just done that it was Garrett’s engine was what he was talking about. So atleast garret getting stuck with that had grenade steve sold him and steve being there because of it helped someone out (garret’s not the only one who has had bearing,lifter and oiling issues with smxs frost that organizes Rocky Mountain race week got the same repeated run around from steve claiming his works perfect your doing something wrong that m&m did a work around by running low trans pressures that frost got so Fed up that he ripped his out and took it to a different engine builder and had him find out everything Steve had messed up and fix it and hasn’t had a issue sense which is why he calls it a mad cap 481x now instead of a smx)

@michiganracer1181 18 дней назад

Yea dip sh.. McFarland racing runs the SMX motor into the dirt not realizing he's lost 2 gear and been overrunning the engine past 9400 rpms for who knows how long and it's Steve's fault??? Probably not, Garret blew it up because he wasn't paying attention.

Alex, I just wanted to say thank you for taking time to meet my daughter and I at the diner. You made her day and she was talking about it to everyone all weekend. You made a fan for life with her and now I have a new helper in the garage. Congrats on finishing the week and winning the guitar.

@williamfreret6859 18 дней назад

The best video I've seen from ATR from start to finish! Drama, suspense, hope but at the end smile...all in one! Debriefing with Nolan and Dennis was priceless, we understand more what is the complexity of Drive and Drag competition and the involvement of Isky participating to the events, R&D job. Speaking about competition it definitely flows in Alex's veins..."I want the guitar so bad" "But 3rd place you have the guitar" "yes but I want 2nd place even if the guitar is probably the same" says it all! 😄"Be happy, go fast, stay pretty" has never been truer, what a content! Cross fingers for tomorrow...

@kensmith8832 19 дней назад

I was trying to figure when I started watching your videos. It is hard to believe the coffin car was only 3 years ago! I was thinking it has been more than 6 years, but I can find vids that go back any further than 6 years. I have always enjoyed watching your Dad trouble shoot and work! Any time you can rebuild or rework in less than a day, you know you have qualified people on the team! Your Dad did a great job mentoring you in the trade! Teaching is force-feeding, but mentoring is directing you in a skill and letting you learn at your own pace. I hope you are goofing off more than working hard! The fun times are easiest to remember! Good job with your videos!

Really impressive watching Alex anticipating everything her dad needs. These 2 make an incredible team, and it's very obvious she's got more shop time than damn near anyone within + or - minimum 10 years her age. EDIT: Just finished the video, and just witnessed the most redneck engineering I have seen in a minute. This entire video shows just how much experience and knowledge Mr Taylor truly a master of his craft

@irahubscherjr6629 19 дней назад

Cleetus had the same thing take him out... had to pull his out the bottom too. He got it fixed but then they found 2 cracked main caps. The amazing thing was he had made his run (high 6) on 7 cylinders and then met Steve at Motion, where they fixed the cam and lifters but then found the cracked mains.

Only 16 minutes in. Relatively new to this channel. I run a 56' Chev I've had since I was 15 - thus the interest. Already been on the edge of my seat and even shed a few tears. Raced for a while with my son, and this brought back so many memories. Very fitting for Father's day weekend. Watching the interaction between you two - very impressed. Totally legit family race team. New fan forever! Can't wait to see how it turns out, but you all are both total winners in my book already. Great work.

@jeffwaldrop6005 18 дней назад

I worked on gm vehicles for 28 years and I have to say you and your dad are an amazing team. I know he is proud of you and his love and dedication to you is so rare. I cant begin to say how impressed I am with both of you.. I hope i get to meet both of you someday.

@nokones788 18 дней назад

The same thing happened to Garrett, i.e. Cleetus McFarland, broke a link bar and had to shove the lifter through the block. Pretty amazing that they got the work done so quickly. Like Dennis said, the ability to change camshaft without taking the whole motor apart saved them some hours.

It’s very refreshing to see the two of you working so closely together. Alex your dad is amazing. Mister Taylor you have raised a very special girl. How your hole family sticks together is hart warming. This is without a doubt the best video you have ever made. This from a humble 66 year old man. If you will please let us know what you find wrong with the motor and oil problem please. And thank you for educating an old man that loves what you and your family does. But never had the smarts or talent to do. Again great video and thank you all.

Extremely impressed! The conversation with Nolan and Dennis was very interesting to say the least. We ate a cam in our Big Block due to same issue a couple years back. The bar between number one lifters broke and spun the exhaust lifter. I was running valves after a pb run at Enis bracket regionals and could not get lash set looked Down in the valley and sure enough. The information Nolan/Dennis gave was just awesome. Great job overcoming the multiple challenges. Appreciate it guys!
