RC Airplane content sure is cheap lol
Hey man things could have been a lot worse! Thank God that it was just the engine and that spill didn’t cause a wreck. Mullet lives to drag and drive again but you should have read my comment after World Cup when I said don’t waste your time and buy the billet block!!! Probably won’t read this one but I’m sure you’re smart enough to know 5 seconds are only a few milliseconds away and I’m pretty sure that would be the first ever el Camino in the 5s sh*t it’s the first in the 6s’s but stay safe man and keep up the hard work racing is trial and error, trying to run faster and faster next thing you know you got a promod 😅 if McFarland racing is looking to sponsor a racecar I’ma need a set of double beadlock wheels for the back 15×14 😂
I know it hurts, and the money outlay stings, but you still have the car. You didnt end up in the wall, you walked away from it, all in all it was the best outcome you could have had with that type of failure. We just got done rebuilding my dads road race car, or rather starting over because it ended up in the wall. I would much rather bolt a new engine in than start over with another chassis. No doubt you guys will get it running again with an SMX or something else that can hold the power you want to make.
Damage control is key. I love me some Steve Morris. He’s a stand up guy
George looks like brad paisley
you got a pie for the amount of subscribers you have now congratulations. 3.14m !!!
I’m excited to see mullet and McFlurry just become bigger and better,
16 hours later and he's sitting at 90k subscribers. Love this community.
Thank god for guys like you Garrett and your team. I legit need this entertainment in my life to break up the monotony
I'll be interested in see what actually failed before just jumping to an SMX deal. Most of these regulars just say SMX because that's seems to be all they know now. I think there is more to be had with keeping the car a true conventional headed BBC deal. Just my $.02….posting a comment is free!
How empty the stands are sick weeks not looking so sick
Trade the ripsaw for a SMX.. just putting it out there.
.
SMX big boy block inc <3
Well done we know the limit of that big block now … noted … SMX next please
If you where not selling China made bullshit at a premium more would order everything about being so American but everything you sell is from the Chinese
👉💥 I just Subscribed to Pete and he's now at 90,000 + Subscribers. Let's go 100k subs for Pete!ðŸ‘Ëâ€
Look on the bright side. You'll have a lot of high quality spare parts salvaged from that engine.
All the big dogs got taken out.. tough event for everyone. .
Glad to see you're safe. You know what this means, we get to watch Steve pull apart and re-build the engine or maybe even build a new one. 🙂
This man is a prime tester. You want to see if a piece of automotive equipment/ part/ engine of any kind will survive? Send it to Cleet 😂
Just buy a billet big block chevy "block" and put it back together.
I respect how Cleetus, and crew, don’t play victims and blame games 🫡
Who cares what everyone thinks. That's racing and the HP world! Good job guys, keep it up!
SML or SMX?
Cleeter is a LS dude .. but the car is set for a big block now …
Screw it.. go big !
SMX!!!
no one to blame , just bad luck great team you will come back whit better we trust in it
mystery machine would fit in perfect at that track😂😂🟢ðŸâ€Âµ
Tuning is everything🤷ðŸÂ»â€ÂÂ♂ï¸ÂÂ
Get a new tuner. Homie doesn’t really know what he’s doing is what I’m gathering from the last 2 vids:(
We can rebuild it we have the technology we can make it faster than it was before ,more horsepower. We can make the 6 million Dollar Mullet drag car.
Any race engine pushed hard enough can fail. It just hurts a lot when they cost well into five figures! I'm surprised that your engines even lasted that long with all of the boost that you give them. My first race engine torched the very first time that I had pressed the nitrous button. I had to save up for a year and a a half to get it built back in the early 1980's. There were no books written about how to set up nitrous or what timing to run and no computers to record or monitor anything. It was all trial and error. I never ran nitrous again after that. No engine builder that I ever knew ever guaranteed any of their engines due to the nature of the harsh conditions that they were going to be put under. I've heard that 7.3L Ford that McFlurry had are notoriously weak engines in stock form, so you did really damned good to get that much out of it before it let go! You just found out the limits the hard way just as so many of us out here have years ago.
Pete's at 90k now!! Let's GOOO!!!
Little update. Peet is now at 90k
Well if you ran it out to the max at the end of the season I'll bet that's how that lifter got messed up thinking back hey man do your thing you'll never do bad in my book shit happens that's racing you're always a stand up dude
Steve seems like such a awesome guy. Genuine human being.
Time for Steve's best engine for Mullet.
just when i thought i couldnt love Cleets channel more. in defeat it seems they are triumphant. the vibe after mullet lets go, even after they have to deal with losing records and PBs, is so humble. although no one wanted to see it end like this, Cleet and the team are so good at picking themselves up and pushing forward. you guys make a defeat look like a win and that is something special, hold on to that energy as long as you can boys
I own a business, It is always the owners fault !!!!! Somehow
Bro parts break you could run that stuff under its limits and it will go
do you think that accidently starting the car with no oil in it the other day could have been a factor in mullet's engine expiring???
Don't forget all the content the teardown videos will bring!!!!
How much for the Dale picture on the blue wall??

sooo does this mean a possible 5 second pass with the SMX?
