Sorry about the delay on this vid, I got a last minute call to go interview Rob Dyrdek on Roman Atwood's podcast so I flew to LA and it really threw a wrench in my editing schedule!!!
Thanks cleet
Rob’s the best! Congratulations
casual flex
nice
Your good.
George looked so deflated to see his baby break down. U can see the excitement everytime he hops in the blazer.
You can tell George really cares. He seemed really hurt about the blazer
Its a LS in a 2000$ car who cares lol
@@keedoopop4900 George does. Dare you to talk smack about George. I'd like to see how that turns out for you.
@@keedoopop4900 every drag car started out as a 2000 $ car what’s your point dummy
@@92Jdmsupra dam i better take what i said back LS george will curse my family and every non LS car i have
@@nalley6815 lol no they dont nearly every 12 secind car starts from 2000$ not every drag car. You know better then that. Also dont call me a dummy bc i gave you my opinion if you didnt want peoples opinio. Dont comment on stuff
Dang you could tell George was freakin dissapointed, Cleets got such a solid group man, dont worry George, you made that crank snout last way longer than we thought it would!
For those who don't already do this; I would recommend watching the videos before reading the titles. Makes them so much more surprising and interesting.
George and the Blazer have both been amazing additions to the team. Always a good time.
Built for a good time not a long time 🤣😂👍🏼
Its wierd though. Didnt George work somewhere else with an S10 platform that kept breaking?
@@liveepically they broke this engine on purpose if you couldn't tell...
@@liveepically Did that S10 ever work correctly? I no longer watch that channel and have no idea.
@@liveepically moved on to bigger and better things. I would have made the same decision
This might sound weird but I love how bummed George is after stuff like that, just shows how much he cares and wants to rip 🙏
Yeah, you can tell that he is bummed that it broke on him. Really hope he stays safe and can get the Blazer to where he wants it to be in his mind.
@adam cahill he will. Cleet won't let him keep staying behind, that blazer and mullet and mcflurry will all be ripping soon..... heard it from ripper, he approved the repair order....Maddy even co signed it! ✌🏼🤪
They need to stretch the wheelbase so his heart stops breaking
@@johnfacts2355 that’s unfortunately against the rules in the classes they race. That’s also why they don’t run wheelie bars
Love how it's goes from" we can't keep the blazer from doing wheelies" to," let's put a bigger tire and weights on the back to make it wheelie"!
I’m really enjoying this no prep stuff! Entertaining as hell!
Lol 8:24 I Love this New Spot. It’s New Enough to Kinda Set the Bar cause you Guys ‘Just Started’ Using It. Good Luck!
Cleet and the crew is the only guys I’d stop watching another TH-cam vid for.
I just did the same thing 👍
I literally did the same thing. I was watching some other TH-camr I like, but when I saw the Cleet video pop up, I paused and came straight over to watch it. Cleet is probably the only TH-camr that I do that with. His vids are just too good.
@@camaro25 it was boosted boiz wasn't it. they just uploaded not long ago
Hell yeah brother!
Lol, I was just watching roman Atwood podcast and thought "I'll watch roman after cleetus"
Hang in there George! We’re all rooting for you!
When Cleet was lifting the truck and George says "you're about to Fiero it!!" had me going good 😂 😂
Absolutely hand me dying and I’m really impressed with that crank shaft holding all the weight as well
Ikr
I lost it when Cleetus said, “Do you want James to drive so someone will stay in it?” 🤣🤣🤣
That’s the #1 proven best way to get a buddy to do something they need to do but ain’t doing
@@54raceman and then break a crank lol.
love how cleet can tell when his crew is feeling down when something breaks, so he says something to bring them back up and not feel so bad about breaking something
The little test strip is gonna have better prep than some tracks soon lol
Was thinking the same thing!
If they could do a better burnout it already would be.
@Matthew Doty hell yeah brother
@@matthewdoty2685 Ya I want to see a standing burnout with a slow rollout.
I think they should extend it towards the road, for stopping distance of course….
Sam's reaction when cleet drug it out the door. That man was a great addition to the crew
“Ur gonna ruin the floor, ur gonna ruin the block” 😂😂
Shout out to the intake bolt-hole threads in those aluminum heads. They are the real MVP of that lift 💪
It screws into the block.
Especially since that’s a mock up engine so it’s been impacted probably a shit ton
@@darksu6947 Read the OP again...all the words, because comprehension is clearly not your strong suit. Neither is mechanical reasoning. Go be a hero somewhere else and maybe think just a little bit before you post some dumb shit.
The fact I’ve already seen this on Motion’s page, didn’t change my excitement for the lifting of the truck! 😂
I gotta say cleet, I’ve been watching you and the crew for yearsssss and it only gets better and better! I hope you’re more than proud of what you’ve created here over the years
Thank you for all of your hard work Garrett, you have no idea how much your videos can help us get through the day. I’ve been following since you and coop were roommates and I’ve watched every single video since, channel just keeps getting better
Not gonna lie, the forklift skit did have me a little nervous. You guys always manage to keep things interesting 😂
It should, that's how people fucking die. You'd think a pilot would know better.
@@Toucan__Dan Yeah, that whole deal seemed a bit immature to me, Sam as well as you can hear him going on like a father scolding a child.
@@Toucan__Dan weird looking plane
@@Toucan__Dan Content brain is a disease. Safety and common sense go out the window.
I feel like Garrett has been watching too much Whistlin Diesel content....
And yes, as a pilot you'd think he be safety focused, but yet he rips over 100 mph on SR 64 on the regular on video.
Not a good look.
Never a dull moment at McFarland Racing!!
You guys have got me so fired up about the Blazer and it's no prep gig!!!!! Freaking love you George, you and the guys will have the Blazer back up and running in no time
If you are going to keep running those weights on the back you really should run a pin through the bar to keep them attached! A couple of 25 lb plates will kill someone if they come off at speed, especially if they are spinning from ground contact. You really don't want to torpedeo someone!
I love how that blazer means allot to LS George. It's what started the friendship with cleetus and his brother and james on Rocky Mountain race week. I could be wrong, but that blazer gave him a path in his life, and I'm glad he's part of the cleetus crew!
Ummm you got that all wrong lol George has known cleet for years
George used to work for Jeremy who used to tune Cleeter's cars. They've known each other for ages and long before they got the Blazer on rocky mountain race week.
@54 seconds, right after Cleet says, "This looks good!" The look on Sam's face!!!! The definition of, "Idk what I got myself into, but I'm gonna see this wreck to the end."
I think he's just loving the fact he gets to do dumb things with friends
Sam is the best. I wanna grow up to be like Sam.
Sam's thinking "These boys are crazy, fun but crazy. Someone has to keep an eye on them to make sure they live" 😂😂
This content is just better than anything on the internet or the tv…… hell year brother!! Uk Englands biggest fan ❤
*2nd 😄
Poor George looked like he was about to cry. I feel you brother 😢
George took that to heart. Y’all will have the Blazer ripping soon. Going to be some late nights but y’all can do it.
This channel actually makes my day better when a new video pops up.
Poor George he seemed so bummed out 😥 lol
It’s always broken, he never gets to race.
GEORGE IS SO SAD!! I love how much he truly loves this shit.
3:24 - I love your crazy ideas . Brilliant
YES...!!!! More blazer content👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
That look on his face when the realization hit that his baby was broken.... I felt that. I felt that hard.
Drill a hole in the end of your fork. Then add a ball hitch to it. It will keep things from sliding off and it’s removable. Also handy for moving trailers quickly
I think that was Motions forklift. That skit was filmed at Motion/TBM.
That wasn't their forklift, it was Motion Raceworks.
Cleetus owns part motion race works. So it’s his. And it doesn’t have to be just that one. Even his Florida one he can do it to
@@bbhunter2220 ah okay i didn't know he was part owner, i haven't been watching the channel for that long really and just watching his old video's
I was wondering why it didn't have a ball on one of the forks too?🤔
But drilling, rather than torching a hole, seems tedious to me. 🤔🙄
It would make their life much easier! 👍
thanks for the later upload, i wasn't expecting one today and had a rough day and this definitely lightened my day up a little
Yeah I definitely feel that
Doug and company have come SUCH a long way. I remember in the early 2000’s watching him rip his HUGE DUAL BOTTLE nitrous fox body at Cordova Dragway as a youngin. Lol. The 2 bottles filled the dang hatch!!! 😳
Cleetus and the team kill it's every time. Great job to everyone!!
you guys are the new top gear .........no one else comes close ..........your team is soo soo soooo SOOOO good..........i fxckin love watching you guys........LEROY THE SAVAGE
Hear that saying too often...these guys, the throttle house guys (for writing/cinematography more so), Car Trek (with Hoovie, Tavarish, and Ed), and so on...oh, and the smoking tire when they hilariously failed at trying to do their own trek thing lmao those guys are such douches.
Cleetus/Garret I have to say you're such a class act. When things like this happen you're always telling your guys not to worry about it and it wasn't their fault which is 110% correct and just the right thing to do. I've been forcibly retired due to severe health issues that come with a constant dose of extreme pain at only 56 but if I was somehow able to come work for you I'd fight thru it all or give it my best shot, (not that I haven't already tried that), because you really are just that damn awesome. I bet not only is it a blast working for you but more than likely the job of a lifetime for anyone lucky enough to be on your payroll. I'm moving to your neck of the woods next year in the spring of '24 so I'm definitely going to keep my fingers crossed and be praying that even though my work history is as a director of management that even at your young age you're probably already better at it than I ever was but at least on a good day I can ride a mower and cut grass with the best of them. Thanks again for just being you sir, you truly are 1 in billion and already on the path to becoming a legend. Hell in my book you already are one with all you've accomplished at your young age and in such a short period of time...
Let's do it for Cleetus/Garret and Dale, Hell Ya Brother !!!
God Bless...
I just really appreciate the fact that all of your cars are spotless in the videos. All thanks to my favorite, sam 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
doug " thats a perfectly good truck " had me rolling haha
when he was like "watch the tailgate!" i was surprised nobody mentioned the existing damage already there!
The lift plates are impressive but I can’t stop looking at Sam’s tucked hoodie 😱. You’re a champ sir 🫡
Something tells me the dent in Doug’s tailgate wasn’t there b4 this day
ouch! i always wondered how much stress a blower puts on the nose, now i know lol another win for turbos, but still cant beat the look of that blower on the blazer i love that car
It's one of the rare times I've seen George gutted and deflated he loves that blazer I'm sure the team will have her ripping better and faster than ever oh and a wheelie
Cleetus videos have been a nightly ritual in our house for my son and I. We don't go to bed without getting at least one video in even if it is just rewatching an old video. Keep doing what you guys are doing
you guys need to get an electric pump with a nozzle in front of each back tire to mist the stripper glitter glue during your burnout. love the name of the glue by the way. that shit sticks to everything
Some more content, new bottom end for Rocky. A lot more tire smoke and wheelies. Win, Win ,Win!
Cleeter's the only U-tuber that can make a 5 min engine lift plate Ad seem like 30 seconds...! Ty's "Wheelie Popper Dry Hopper 1000" needs a 2nd set of barbell keeper nuts to act as lock nuts.
Adding George to the content really brings so much fun to the channel
Honestly, when they started the lift plate bit “I couldn’t think of one possible thing that could have gone wrong.” However, I’m impressed with the strength of the chain, forklift, lift plate, and the truck hitch. 😂😂
I don’t understand why you’re impressed with it. They’re all heavy duty parts made of very strong steel.
@@mikeznel6048 on the other hand i would be quite worried if anything actually broke
Lol. The last bit…
“Turn it over, George!”
“Really??”
😂
Honestly I think it’s less blowing the motor that hurts, more the longer hours it just created. Tx2K and this special showdown in the Blazer…just tough timing. Looking forward to seeing the results! ;;kicks back in armchair 😂
You can tell George's heart is in that blazer. Hope she gets fixed fast and he's back in the seat.
SHOO WEEEE! Blazer ready for that No Prep life! Blown motor and everything, she'll be right at home out there.
Y'oughta call up your old pal Swanstrom and get some No Prep tips! I'm sure he'd love to help.
I’ve really come to love this truck. Galaxy & the blazer have become my top favorites in the fleet.
PS I miss me some Dale truck action
You guys are definitely taking the blazer to do hoonigan race
So when are the guys gonna join a 24hoursoflemons? I wanna see the whole team do at least a stint in a $500 car
I hear the lemons promoters are a bit douche baggy, I've considered running it, but friends have had bad experiences.
@@dieseldummy4250 its all kinda based on what you bring if they like ya, the older and shitter the vehicle the more theyll love it
We all know it would be a crown vic...they basically do their own version of it with the freedom 500 and such.
@@PupHooch see thats not the feedback I've heard. Not first hand experience, but I've heard the better you do as a nobody in junk, the more likely you are to catch hell. Basically prechosen top finishers.
@@dieseldummy4250 Gambler 500 is where it is at! I was at the very first one(and second) when it was 14 teams of assholes from the PNW. what an amazing time!
My dude I have been craving for you to post truly addicted to watching you and the crew
You guys are NUTS! but I sure appreciate the content. To tear that thing all apart and replace the short block is one hell of a task! But your team ALWAYS finds a way. Hats off to your engine builders!!
Nothing like a cleeter video to lift your spirits, lifters, valves, head gaskets, head bolts.. haha
It sucks that the Blazer broke, but on the upside the timecrunch rebuild videos are always amongst the best videos on the channel.
Plus, as the saying goes: It's not broken, its just telling you what to upgrade next.
Rocky and George are like Peanut Butter and Jelly!
Side note, anyone else hella impressed it started right back up even with a broken crank? 🤣
Watching him operate that forklift has got to be the most hilarious thing as everyone nervous laughs
Hilarious? You spelled "cringe" wrong.
In all honesty the stuff I’ve seen him do with the forklift don’t even register on the sketchy scale for compared to some the stuff I’ve seen done with them around race shops. I’ve seen some sketchy stuff including my buddy dropping his ex wife’s car off of one raised all the way up while having someone video it to send to her (she sold it to him for next to nothing because she thought he was gonna fix it as one his kid’s first car)
Everybody whining about safety, but that’s peak performance right thurr.
Stripper glitter seems to be what the big dog small tire guys use.
Not surprised with the extra load on the motor with the wider tyres hope it comes back stronger 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
How was yalls vacation from youtube?
Insta click for Cleetus.
we BETTER see this thing on THIS vs THAT.
Oh my lanta.... 😂 I'm dying laughing at the engine block plate opener...🤣🤣🤣🙌
No!!! Man. Please get it up and running!! Love that thing!!!
Poor George… he looked so sad😢
im surprised none of the guys have gotten hurt during the ad reads 😭😭😭
The fact the bolt threads holes is the impressive part.
A single 3/8-16 grade 5 bolt could have done the entire lift though. Hard to believe, but it's true. That is, with zero dynamic shock from abrupt lifting and lowering from the tow motor.
@@majorrev8690 So the takeaway is: Motion raceworks engine lift plate is as strong as a 1" ratchet strap.
@@TokenTombstone I dont know how strong a 1" ratchet strap is.
The tensile strength for a 3/8 course thd Gr5 bolt is 6600 LBf. One bolt, in tension, could do that lift.
@@majorrev8690 Wasn’t the bolt threads that impressed me it was the block threads
Fun research and development comes with a price. That engine been in the blazer for a minute. Time to upgrade!
For no prep, the front of rocky is not rising enough. He needs a few more inches of front shock travel to help transfer weight to the rear, AND the rear is not squatting enough.
Try that and watch Rocky Hook And Book
Dear Mullet, we miss you very much. We wish you the best and a speedy recovery.
Mullet is one thing, yes, but what about ruby?
@@gordonbowe what about toast
What about Leroy?
F off scammer
What about Killa Bee 🐝
Looks like the first take got the tails gate 😢
Rocky is definitely putting up a fight an going rounds. Making the guys work for it
I have SO MUCH FUN watching you guys goof off
Hahahaha when the boss comes to work and all hell breaks loose with tons of laughs. Good times
Sam being so concerned for the block in the beginning was so hilarious😂
sometimes I wonder if Cleetus just doesn't care, or he loves to destroy stuff.
He knows it’s good content and he knows that it has so be a serious problem before his wallet feels it
Yeah it's content that blazer has had to have alot of repairs done but it also is probably some of the most anticipated segments in his videos. Damn wheelie monster with that short wheel base
I feel the same way you do, shoot it stress me out. But got to say do love the content 👌
You should get in touch with the Street Race Channel guys. Billy and his Dad (Old Man's Garage channel) would probably be more than happy to help you out and give some pointers on the small tire no prep stuff. They have tons of videos on the subject. Definitely worth taking a look.
I really want to think they know about Billy the kid, but I definitely would love to see Billy at the freedom factory
Better yet contact Turbo John as he is much closer (NC) and they already know him via the Christmas tree race.
George is real AF man. He knows what he's been given and he feels terrible when stuff goes wrong on his watch.
Daaaaaaaamn brother!!! Those Chevys!!!!!! I'm with everyone else, I feel bad for George. I also agree with you, I can't even start to guess how expensive this month has been but on the other hand how damn fun it's been for all you guys. I'd give up my situation in a heartbeat to have me that lifestyle. How about flipping that work out bar upside down? It can still wheelie but not get out of control on a no prep surface.
On the weight plates where there's a cutout weld a piece of metal slightly larger than the hole on both sides for all of them to make hollow chambers...drill a hole in the center into the plates on one side only and fill with molten lead.
Fresh motor in the blazer ! George is gonna slay at 2k!
I love the learning curve and process
i've seen plenty of cranks breaking with blowers on them, the cause is from not having the proper tension on the pulley. the belt needs to be checked after its had some heat put into it. a belt that is to tight will cause that crank to snap. depending on your pulley setup. 1/2" to 3/4" slack on the long side from center.
Expensive start to the year McFarland racing.
I am so excited to keep seeing the effort they are putting into the blazer. I’m waiting for the day they get the blazer dialed and it rips and runs amazing. This is one of my favorite unique builds from Cleetus
With bead locks I would be somewhere between 5psi and 8psi. Also if you spin the tires a little more in the juice to give it a chance to break down the tire compound and back up exactly in the lines that you just made it will help a lot! Definitely gonna be doing a wheelie then!
I’m enjoying the no prep action!
Literally the only Chanel I watch now days just love the content cleet
I’m more impressed by the STRAP omfg 🤯😆😆 and then says “safety first”
The blazer is one of my favourite cars in the fleet. Once you make it go consistently fast may you make her look pretty again please, no more crackhouse blazer
I LOVE the complete disregard of mechanical sympathy you guys have… “blew another engine? We’ll slap another one in and go!!!”
Class man👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
