- It's been a long time in the making, but our grudge race against Andy from Unity Motorsports Garage and his truck Casper has finally gone down.
We met this last Saturday at Buffalo Valley Dragway, rolled the cars off their trailers and sent them. No testing, no tuning, no practice runs and the result was a race so close that another 10 feet would have completely changed the outcome.

Take the Nitrous off and you will lose all day long.
It's in the name of the freakin car you Dufus...BOTTLE Rocket. BOTTLE....that refers to the NITROUS bottle in the trunk. Pretty much the entire premise that this project and car were built around...that's why it's in the NAME....
lmao
@@UncleTonysGarage You must have been stuck in grade school calling names. I laugh at your name calling lack of class.
@@UncleTonysGarage Hey Tony...be careful man...this guys pretty nifty....no flies on him...have to stay up all night long.....;D....x
take the wheels off and you will also lose all day long
whats your point?
That 318 woulda hung both tires if it had frame connectors i bet! The amount of twist was incredible!! Tony absolutely PROVED the 318 suffers from nothing but propaganda!!
Yup that Dodge left the line literally like a rocket. Impressive!
That thing shot out of the hole like a cannon paisano! Nice job fellers👍
My mouth dropped when he left the hole. Good job UT.
He sprayed that Dodge like a scared skunk in a cow pasture....
Bottle rocket
318 WHAT A CLOWN SHOW LOL
I now have an even greater respect for Uncle Tony's minimalist approach to hot rodding👍😎
There's something to be said for using your head instead of your wallet.
@@sometimesleela5947 Very true!
@DarthShibby Oh no no no, if u read your bible it's actually the "Good Steward" approach.
Good Stuff Tony! I got flashbacks of Dave and Judy Boertman's "Rod Shop" '71 Coronet wagon as you launched...same left-tire dangle and all! That 429 "Boss - Nine" small block conversion mill looks pretty exotic. Haven't heard of it, need to Google them now. Good Stuff guys! -Steve Magnante
Great job on winning the $5,000.25! The mph said alot, good thing the track wasn't 670'! I enjoyed this, two great guys having a great time!
I saw that too, Pocketing the post 1967 quarter. 😂
Here I thought I was the only one who noticed UTG slipping that quarter in his pocket...
I normally don’t comment but man I’ve been waiting for this. Thanks unc for keeping the budget/ordinary guy alive and biggest thing is you don’t need fancy parts to have fun.
How much does he have in this thing as that’s really an ls killer if he catches them slippin
In the 80's and 90's lots of guys just ran 318's and 360's with nitro and ran 11's all day..Nothing to radical to the engines either..Reminds me of that.
What I really would like to see is a medium to low cost high rpm build, high hp is an easy goal compared to high rpm..I don't know why but these youtube channels and TV shows almost never build high rpm stuff. Nothing beats the glorious sound of a NA small block spinning 9k.. would be interesting to see how close you can get with a modest budget.
@@01trsmar nitro or nitrous?
@@davidgalea6113 rpm is more expensive always... Valve train and moving assembly must be very light and strong..... Peraphs if wey had russian titanium cheap parts...
You won on reaction time ! That's what racing is all about ! Proud of you bro !
True that! The guy in the truck was sound asleep at the light. Surprised someone didn't go over and bang on his window, LOL
That B body left WAY harder than I thought it would!
If I didn't just see it I wouldn't have believed it.That was a great race.Way to go Uncle Tony.Get paid Sir!!!
Beautiful run Tony.
Got to say this was worth the wait. Hate to see anybody lose this one but Andy was doing it right with as much power as he had,don't redlight, don't scald the tires, pick him up on the big end. Barely ran out of track.
This is how it should have been! Congrats to you both.
(Don't race him again Tony! Lol!)
Exactly!
Stagger Proof , don't race him again ?
Why not ?
Might have to use the SECOND kit , tho . . . .
(What , you didn't know there's a second kit ? NOBODY knows , that's the point ! )
Nah see how bottle rocket weight transfers. Casper will burn the tires off trying to match that 60ft. 1/8th mile never catch ‘em haha hell ya. Mopar for the win!
NO fancy dance pricey parts NO high compression engine NO rebuilt /engine bearings! NO fancy dancey suspension long live the legend of the 318. Tony proved it, for very little money, alot of wisdom, ya gotta believe the 318 is the little engine that COULD and DID. NO ONE that sees this will ever doubt the 318 is a great engine, especially in the right hands! Tony did MOPAR proud- REALLY opened some eyes with this one. And yes, he treed him, but with 111 less cubes, less compression, BUT with nitrous, it was a fair handicap. And that Ford was definitely comin'- Andy got caught out the hole a little bit, but he was STILL flying! GREAT RACE!
This is a HUGE win- not just the race. Tony earned it and that he and his channel deserves it. History of drivers without gear banging savy, parts breakage and other misfortunes. This is awesome! And yes I know that Casper dialed in will be a lot quicker. Congrats to Andy and Casper as they are an asset to our hobby as well.
Bottle Rocket just might get quicker , too !
That was with a plate .
Imagine a 2-stage with fogger nozzles . . .
Plus , there are more places that Bottle Rocket could develop holes , or components that could be lighter.
Remember , if you throw it up in the air , and it comes back down , its STILL too heavy !
Sadly soon all combustion cars including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-(
In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025
on by reducing all conventional fuel stations to only one state operated central gas station per city or county. Now they want to slow down all the gas station pumps from 20 litre per minute to 2 litre per minute...From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime.!!!! (BABBVO law in EU, HESCHLAVVO law in Switzerland and SMÖRVERBIDEN in Sweden)
@@SchlipperschlopperGood luck trying that in the US... people will riot lmao. Our economy is turning to shit... gov't can't force millions of people to purchase EV's that they not only don't want but can't afford. Not to mention that modifying ICE vehicles is a HUGE part of our culture.
The future generations can have the new world they are willing to create and go along with and then live a life of being totally dominated. Enjoy your new world order!!!! I will be dead and gone, thank God. @@Schlipperschlopper
Try to warn people for years but its like telling people during the p l a n d e m I c. It was complete bullshit...don't test and don't take the injection....
Well. Tony's battleship can move.
Remember when he weighed BR ? That car weighs less than my 70 Dart!
@@craighansen7594 I dont doubt it. He's been shaving weight everywhere he can. And, what he did, with a relatively stock 318 is impressive
Let's see what B.C. has to say aboot dat.
Did pretty well for a 318 but that 7.60 1/8th would be a low 12 high 11 in the 1/4 mile which is still a second off his goal of 10s. Hopefully he can get it there eventually.
@@theinsaneshecklador6598 just a larger NOx tank!!!😅😂❤
Oh yeah, and props to Uncle Kathy for shooting a great video. Excellent camera work as usual UK.
Wow, got to hand it to you Tony. I never thought you could take him. Never underestimate an old gear head racer even if he is in a POS four door 72 Satellite with a 318. You explained getting the right converter, pulling all you could from the heads, etc. etc. You did it. Great job, very impressive.
What kind of a POS do you drive? Just because something has a small block with four doors and is a little rough on the outside doesn't make it a POS moron!
Good sleeper right there! Dont need a fancy car to have fun
Tony quietly stealing his quarter during the master class in BSery was too funny.
Damn good race. 318s just went up in value.
So did nitrous injectors...
@@godsowndrunk1118 But the 318 handling that shot is enough for an applause.
@@tomc8157 wasn't contradicting... just impressed with both.
Very easy to stroke a 318 block to much more cubes! Nitrous on top, it would be effortless to output 500+hp! Then there's sending it down the track!
@@craighansen7594 True...and the Boss 429 can be bored and stroked to 600 inches (Depending on which block used) and make a1,000 hp on carbs.
Awesome I sat up till 130am to see this, I'm stocked with the out come. Go Mopar congratulations from Australia
As a Ford guy I love that short box bumpside but Bottle Rocket is an absolute ripper and it sounds so damn mean! Great job guys that was a close race!
This is better than NHRA events and should be on Speed or Motor Trend TV. Great race and sportsmanship.
I totally agree! A T.V. show called "Brung What you Run" would be way more interesting that the all the other stuff!
Had to laugh Tony pocket the quarter!
The fact that BR still ran and drove is what's really impressive. Love you guys, love the cars (and trucks), and am really glad this race finally got to happen! It's the taxi cab that could.
Casper the cone killer 😂
Loved seeing Tony take this from the monster ferd.
And this folks exemplifies why Plan-Z is full of holes. Andy said it best "Lean and Mean". To be honest I was rooting for Tony (it's an underdog thing I have). But, it went exactly as my prediction. First rig out of the dig. UTG bashers need to take note: the left front tire on BR gets in the air TWICE! That is not Lunar's 318! (With mostly factory parts). Also note: Tony hugged a Dude! That tells a great story! Two awesome guys. This was worth the wait. Not to take away from Andy with this post. I love what he shares and contributes. Both on UMG, and along side the great DV. I have learned volumes. I'm just a huge UT fan because he caters to the "real world". Anybody can go fast with $$$$. Going fast with your mind is the real challenge. With the most rewarding, meaningful results.
Holy shit that take off, talk about a rocket launch
Man, that Mopar came out hard. Tony got that thing workin'. He did a great job on the clock to boot.
It just plain vacates the premises. No note, not even a 'gone to the store for smokes', just GONE.
@@charlesparr1611 like your Dad !
and the trolls said you're a hack who knows nothing tony! bottle rocket for the win! good job to both of you guys! great video kathy!
What will his super troll have to say about this one?
OLD MEN BE SMART; never forget!
Trolls dont even know what a dwell meter is! Tony is legit, and knows his sh#t!!
@@bertpryor1158 well they dont since they keep wining you, or the too muck talker uncle benny
Damn that little 318 hits hard. Y’all should have done more runs. Those 2 look really good going down the track side by side
Ok, that race was worth replaying a couple times. Good job to the both of them.
Bottle Rocket living up to it's name! Been so excited to see this and loved the results! That was a damn good race!
I'm loving the old street racer rhetoric. Reminds me of when I used to hang out at the street races in Detroit back in the 90s. I'm only a few minutes in
Congrats to the both of you for getting this done 😎👍nice hole shot Tony👍
Biggest shock, Tony finally finished something!!😉
👍🤣🤣
he talks too much.. speech dont win races
Way closer race than I expected, impressive Tony
That was some good clean American fun. I thought for sure Tony would blow up. Congrats Tony!
Aren't Bottle Rockets SUPPOSED to go "BANG!" at the end ?
@@Richie_the_Fixer 🤣. I mean the transmission started to poop out, so if it was a 2 out of 3 race I would’ve been right lol
Nice work Tony!!! What a light and great job with tune up! Old age and treachery will defeat youth and enthusiasm every time🤘🏼
OLD MEN BE SMART!!!
My most anticipated race of the year, for sure. Way to go Uncle Tony. Make the most of what you have. With the knowledge part being the most of what you had. My first car was a 72 Hemi Orange Duster. Blacked out hood with orange strips going up the center. Black duster stripes going across the sides. A 318 with a manual 3 speed and a 3:23 8 3/4 rear end. My father thought the 318 would be a better engine for a beginner driver at 16. We bought the car in Kannapolis NC in 1976. But for my next 2 years in High School I slowly built that 318 up with help from my friends. 340 heads. Cam Dynamic cam. Headman headers. Edlebrok 4 bbl. intake. Carter 750 cam carb. Zoom clutch. I had the quickest car in school. Many stoplight races to earn the title. The town was full of really powerful cars. So I was far from the fastest in town. But that 318 held its own and earned me some coin on the weekend. I bought all the parts myself and worked many long hours to afford the car junkie habit. Great win for the lowly under estimated 318. Long live the 318. And Uncle Tony, remember “ we are old guys, we do stuff”. Thank you sir for your great channel.
Well if that isn’t the biggest FU to the haters… a home built 318 in a land yacht slaying a mighty boss 429. There’s your Mission Impossible lol
Well done old man!
Fun race! Bear in mind however the "429" ran both quicker e.t. and faster mph according to the time slip.
@@bigc6310 yes, I grasp that.
Cool that they ran a close race and in the 7s
@@bigc6310 yessir, it was a great race!
@@bigc6310 all that matters is who made it across that finish line first
it lifted that wheel ! that has made my day well done UT one up for us old guys !
"can't cut a light" my ass! hahaha can't believe you sacrificed all those launches in an effort to keep the facade! Great job
Back in the ‘80s my buddy had a 1970 Dart Swinger, primered, slammed with aggressive rake and Mopar rally wheels stuffed up under it, reverse manual tranny w/ nasty shift kit, 4.10 gears and a nasty 318 with 340 heads, purple camshaft and that sumbitch was just awesome. That car made more of an impression on me as a teenager in 1987-88. That car was/is the epitome of Hotrodding in my brain lol
#MuscleCarTimeMachine ❤
Holy Jesus! I had no Idea how far along Tony has brought ole Bottle Rocket! He also cut one hell of a light. I am impressed beyond belief. Good job guys. Very cool video. So sorry Andy, it is a long drive back to SC with your wallet much lighter. Cheers from Motown.
I think Tony hated taking Andy's money! I seriously think Tony expected to not to win. He cut that light I mean, sliced and diced that light. Had to be just this side of a red light.
I gotta say, that was glorious! Good job UT!
Tony, that was about a near perfectly timed take off. The race was amazing.
Small block power!!!!! That’s got to be one of the best sounding mopars I’ve ever heard
Small block Ford sounded great also!
When I saw this vid was up it felt like Christmas morning.
Two years waiting and now it finally going to happen!
Congrats Uncle Tony, well done !
If you don't hold a lit cigarette in the same hand with your torch when heating your Nitrous, the bottle won't get hot enough...
I don't know which I enjoyed more, the smak talk, the flat out lies, or the race.😂😄😁 THAT WAS AWESOME!!!
Great friggin Video UTG, hope to see more content like this 1.
Respect to both guys, Andy is a class act and Tony took the win humbly. Great race, well worth the wait. Bottle Rocket ain't afraid of no ghost. 👍
Holy moly freaking uncle Tony proves himself about what 318s can do and his tricks! Man I ain’t ever seen nothing like what I just saw wow!!!!!!!!
Wow wasn't expecting that! Long time drag racers usually have a few tricks up thier sleeve. Great job to you both. Long time coming.
If i needed a ride, that's the Taxi Cab I want to show up.
"I'm just using the nitrous plate for a spacer." Proceeds to heat nitrous bottle. 😂
GOOD JOB TONY!!!!
Not gonna lie, the Ford guy in me was rooting for Casper, but it was a pleasant surprise to see Bottle Rocket hold off that badass SBF!
You fuckin' nailed that light dead-nuts!
Nice race uncle Tony... Damm you left hard out of the hole.Quite a show. Greetings from Montreal. Luv u guys.
Tony, I am a Dodge man from the 70s, but my love has been the big blocks, but have a lot of respect for the 340. The 318 always was super reliable so I relegated it to great taxis, but never a drag car. I didn't give you a one in ten chance of winning that race. When you left the line my jaw hit my chest. Absolutely, loved it. You are the man. Fantastic!
Never underestimate the "lowly" 318! I built one for my '73 Roadrunner when it was new and consistently blew the doors off 📴 cars with much bigger mills than mine many times. It was a BLAST back in the day! Wish I could find Mr. Peabody and his Wayback Machine!!!!!
The 318 and the 400 are always under estimated. 318s are tough and can make power. Just have to massage them.
I can't believe how that thing left!!! Godamn that thing hooked
UT whooped him off the line. Congrats. Never thought I'd see the day when a 318 small block beats up on a 429 Ford... Fixed Or Repaired Daily..
Went pretty much as I expected - UT had Bottlerocket sorted for 60 foot and got the jump on the tree. That 700 HP showed up at the finish line on Casper. Good fun - glad I finally got to see it.
Brain Cabral will make a video about it im sure 😁 . Cool beans guys both sounded great and good race .
Cabral has no legitimacy now 😂 that guy is full of shit
And it still runs! 😂
Did I see daylight under them front tires?????? Pretty good reaction time for someone who is not good at cutting a light!!!
Definitely came off the ground . Front left was up 6-8 inches id say
Totally awesome! 318 with reversed pistons!!
Awesome. So glad they both made it down the track too. If the pistons weren't in that 318 backwards casper wouldve caught it
This!
The trash talk, the battle of cubic inches versus liquid motor meth, EVERYTHING!
And when you race a buddy, if you win it's good, and if he wins, then your friend won which is also good.
THAT WAS CRAZY!!! I was routing for the underdog. That was a good race.
Crazy fast. The guy with the mop has balls.
Excellent race guys! Was expecting some shrapnel from the little 318 running on the suicide tune up, but glad to see it held together to fight another day!!!
THE BOTTLE ROCKET CURSE HAS BEEN LIFTED!!
That was fantastic!
Sam Biondo, Butch DiLorenzo & Jim Harrington watched this race with a smile
As we join our heroes, "Story Time with Andy and Tony" is about to begin. Glad to see Tony observing the old traditions by breaking something new on Bottle Rocket with every visit to the track. Looking forward to the post-mortem on the trans. Great fun! Thank you for posting this.
You'll notice when they come on the line that one of Tony's brake lights was out. It was that small bit of weight savings that gave him the win. Bottle Rocket grabbed that track and took off like a.......well you know.
If he hadn't went with the automatic this race would have been different.
@@oacumulador doesn’t matter if he treed him and sprayed him. That truck still had the advantage
@@kramnull8962 please explain. Are you saying he would have run slower?
@@oacumulador I don't think you understand drag racing. If Tony (Mopar ) had jumped the light, there would be a red light that came on. Tony just out drove him.
@@oacumulador bulb was lit when the car left. There was no jump. Tony just had a better reaction time
That IDLE sounds so COLD! 🧊 ❄️ ☃️
"Old age and treachery will win every time." Great race.
I didn’t think Tony could deliver, but he proved me wrong as soon as that tire lifted off the line! Impressive launch and a full pass and he drove it back onto the trailer at the end. Good job Uncle Tony!
Tree master for the win. AND it didn't break. Double win.
Lmao UT just slipping the quarter in his pocket
That was a hell of a launch! I honestly thought he was going to smoke you.
Almost as if hes done it 1000s of times
Dang... That Dodge left the tree like a scalded cat! I wasn't expecting that Tony... I guess I gotta believe it cause I saw it with my own eyes... Unreal Tony!
Thank you Uncle Tony thank you so very much.
I love bottle rocket, reminds me of an old montana highway patrol car, though they had 440 pi motors. The color is even right. I am a die hard ford guy but there is something about a 70's fury. had a couple of buddies that had retired mhp 440 pi's headers and nos, frickin things would run 160 easily.
The first 60ft wins the race...especially in the 1/8th!!
Cut a very good light,car did what it was meant to do off the line, you always said that was your strategy! Now what happened in 2nd gear gotta find out what happened!
Reminds me of when I raced pretty much stock 3.91 geared 340 A bodies with my stock 440 B body with either 3.23's or 3.55 gearing..If the A body hooked and got the light and I spun and or slept on the light I ran them down by the 1/8th and it was bye bye 340 A body my 440 B body then walked them..Andy was getting you but didn't :)
Andy seems like a good guy,maybe he needs a 318 in that Ford!!
David Vizard gonna lay him off 😂
Great reaction time
Wish my 5.7 sounded as good as that 318.
Carburetor V8s ftw thats for sure what a sound
Holy shit that thing is just insane 😂 I don’t think I’ve ever got that much adrenaline from a TH-cam video before, hats off to Tony for building that motor and pulling that run off, but it wouldn’t have been the same without Andy’s 700hp monster storming after that pile 😂
Tony I love the drama you’re trying to make before the race 😂 you’re really an asset to your viewers and TH-cam
Awesome race, good old fashioned trash talking but at the end of the day, all good.
That was closer than I thought it would be.
In the late 70s a speed shop specializing in van side pipes was having a going out of business sale, a young Tony couldn't resist checking it out, over on a shelf set a Marvin Miller nitrous kit, young Tony was mesmerized by the shiny stainless steel tubing and color coded solenoids emanating from the plate, he had to have it! For years Tony prized his nitrous kit, waiting for only the right car to build around his nitrous kit, finally a 4 door 318 Mopar appeared before his eyes, he knew this Mopar would be built around this nitrous kit...................................
Right on, 3/4 cam, pop up pistons, Gabriel hijackers!
That was awesome! Love to see it. Big smiles all around. I’m not a true car guy, I just like ‘em, but I’ve always had a thing for 318s.
Holy Santa Claus shit! That was one hell of a pass. Congrats Tony and congrats on the launch!
Always see you working, so it is fun to see you driving Tony.
Good job Tony. I'll admit, I have been saying you don't have nuthin for him. I eat my words. Your little 318 is the little engine that could!
You can see Tony clearly has experience drag racing with a tree. Takes off right on the green, impressive. I heard from an old timer that you have to "think" and "start moving" your foot to press on the gas on the final yellow light before the green so you can take off by the time it hits green. I don't know if this is what everyone does, but as someone who hasn't dragged race yet. I can't imagine it's easy to pull off.
Great race and that launch was a big deal sending it. Way to go both of you and make the start of an excellent year!
Congrats on a great day racing. It seems that you both want to tune and run again, Let us know when the rematch will happen.
Great race from both of you, how it should be, old time racing, thank you both!
