We greatly appreciate it and take very seriously the responsibility you trust us with! Happy to tag in any time you need us, good luck with testing and the Christmas Tree Drags!
A professional, unobjective eye is an amazing resource. We all love our cars and overlook things. Rich obviously wants all of his customers to have a safe vehicle. But he also knows that these are his friends who will be driving very fast.
I know even i get excited about buying a cool car. But from now on i will check the bottom of the car and chassis over real good. Thanks for the great video.
Yea that cut out crossmember with no tube connecting the a arm mounts, drive shaft dragging the loop on rear extension and that trans mount and several other things killed me on how they were done on such a nice looking car outside
Billy’s Nova looks so good now. House of Pearls killed it with the paint and the graphics are spot on. Glad he got you guys to go over it. Rich has a level of attention to detail on a whole different level than most people, nice work.
Had my camaro done there a few months back. Car is straight as an arrow! Great people to work with, love watching the content. Hats off to you guys for amazing work!
Another outstanding job of doing your race car front-end magic Rich!! Great find on that driveshaft, that would be a real problem being compromised like that.
I learned from kyle Tucker from Detroit Speed along time ago about how important an transmission crosmember is. They even make an upper one welded into the floor board that strengthens everything up.
You guys do amazing work. I would trust you guys with any vehicle nice to see honest hard working men doing what real men do. God Bless you your Families and have a great and wonderful "Merry Christmas" take care and be safe.
That drivers side tie rod mount looks tweeked a hair for sure. Also i believe the driveshaft is from the separation of the rearend from the body. Billy isnt too easy on this beauty of a machine! Great work and great eye! If i lived closer, i would bring all my vehicles to you guys for alignments since all the big name companies dont know how to do correct alignments.
Outstanding Work and Great knowledge with your work 👍 Haven't been able to watch your Videos and Content for a while Health issues with the Old Body Really Appreciate your Time Have a Great Day 👍
I assumed drive shaft touching eather during burn out or on the lanch with rear suspension separation but the transmision crossmember i would definitely not of trusted it hes ben lucky it held up at all thats alot of power transfer he might want to check all his mounts/motor plate or anything attached to the drive line for cracks to be on the safe side if that crossmember has moved any it might of allowed other thangs to shift or move to i also agree with adding atleast adding removable k member between control arms👍
That’s pretty much how it was when I bought it. This car has been through a lot but it’s what I could afford 3 years ago. I bought it for 12k and you couldn’t touch a double frame rail 25.2 car for that now.
@StreetRacingChannel 12k is a steal, it's come a super long way for sure and It's like do you start cutting and where do you stop or replace amd upgrade hence the camaro
Billy did put the drivers front into the wall. Driver side being bent is a good possibility. To me the driver side looked like it was bent inward significantly compared to the passenger side
He hit the wall due to oil under the tire when the Mallory came out the crank n went thru the oil pan, it hit pretty on the drivers side mostly but head on
As much as I hate to say it,some areas of the car are poorly done.The driveshaft is especially dangerous and a good reason to have a skilled mechanic like Rich working on your car.
Remember he did hit a WALL ? BUT me id be checking if the mounts aren't moving ?? and as i said check the TRANNY COS he/she IT may have a problem lol Aussie humor lol
I have to agree with you , that car is going to get someone hurt or worse , and I hope that it's not a spectator , or the person in the other lane . I haven't seen this level of Mickey Mouse engineering since 1980 , when I went to an indoor car show and checked out a pair of freshly built Super Gas Vegas , both with Pinto r&p in them . The first one used a steering shaft from the rack up to the coloumn made up of 3/8 inch Craftsman extensions and universals . The other car used the stock flexible wire shaft from a ' 71 Pinto with no supports to hold the shaft , it was allowed to whip around freely .
This car puts down a good patch everywhere it goes and has been putting down considerably godly passes with no issues besides a junk engine that he had someone else build to save time . But after uncle Bob fixed it . I bet you won't line up with him
Thank you rich! Your attention to detail is why I always trust you guys and pretty much only you guys in this area.
We greatly appreciate it and take very seriously the responsibility you trust us with! Happy to tag in any time you need us, good luck with testing and the Christmas Tree Drags!
You definitely do an amazing job Rich. I wish I was close enough to bring my 1952 ford pickup to you.
I think that SRC has some great people wanting to help and be apart of the team.
Definitely CHANGE that driveshaft ASAP before the Xmas tree race
There’s an alignment and a racing alignment. There’s few in each state that can actually do a racing alignment right.
Rich pays great attention to detail. He could save your life! NOT KIDDING.
A professional, unobjective eye is an amazing resource. We all love our cars and overlook things. Rich obviously wants all of his customers to have a safe vehicle. But he also knows that these are his friends who will be driving very fast.
SRC can’t go wrong with bringing your ride to Rich. He takes his time and his experience is worth it all
I know even i get excited about buying a cool car. But from now on i will check the bottom of the car and chassis over real good. Thanks for the great video.
Yea that cut out crossmember with no tube connecting the a arm mounts, drive shaft dragging the loop on rear extension and that trans mount and several other things killed me on how they were done on such a nice looking car outside
wow nice job not just an alignment but finding possible issues
I think you're right. It is Bent on the driver side keep up the good working video.
Billy’s Nova looks so good now. House of Pearls killed it with the paint and the graphics are spot on. Glad he got you guys to go over it. Rich has a level of attention to detail on a whole different level than most people, nice work.
Many alignment shops does poorly service round here( Dillon,sc) I know I been a mechanic 36 years, greatly to see the great service these guys do
Always love your videos rich!! Love your attention to everything!!! Thank you.
If anyone can straighten this old girl out, it’s you, Rich.
Sick! What a beast. The 55, the nova the truck and the camaro? Omg. Its game on with a 10:50daily,Mustang, and the c10.epic.
Had my camaro done there a few months back. Car is straight as an arrow! Great people to work with, love watching the content. Hats off to you guys for amazing work!
Another outstanding job of doing your race car front-end magic Rich!! Great find on that driveshaft, that would be a real problem being compromised like that.
Love your work experience definitely counts when working on race cars
Rich you are awesome. You know your work and do it well. Billy is in great hands with you looking out.
Good job bro
Hi, Rich! Another job well done! You are magical.
I learned from kyle Tucker from Detroit Speed along time ago about how important an transmission crosmember is. They even make an upper one welded into the floor board that strengthens everything up.
Get a mirror find witness 😂 great work as always .
You guys do amazing work. I would trust you guys with any vehicle nice to see honest hard working men doing what real men do. God Bless you your Families and have a great and wonderful "Merry Christmas" take care and be safe.
When the rear separates the body would go up and contact the driveshaft.
I would assume when the suspension seperates, and tries to push the rear tires down, the body lifts, and rubs the shaft
I have sean it spark in alot of videos
Looks 100% twisted...... Salute.
Awesome alignment rack. Looks alot better than our 20 year old Hunter that we keep updated.
Great job!
Great work by a skilled person.
Only to be Wheelied outa back.
That drivers side tie rod mount looks tweeked a hair for sure. Also i believe the driveshaft is from the separation of the rearend from the body. Billy isnt too easy on this beauty of a machine! Great work and great eye! If i lived closer, i would bring all my vehicles to you guys for alignments since all the big name companies dont know how to do correct alignments.
Alignment speacilists racers come from many states around.realy do some great work on everything mechanical.
Outstanding Work and Great knowledge with your work 👍
Haven't been able to watch your Videos and Content for a while
Health issues with the Old Body
Really Appreciate your Time
Have a Great Day 👍
Another great video
2 of my faves
You are doing a great Job 👍 👌 👏 🙌 ❤❤❤❤❤
That chassis work is interesting.
Hi Richard.I remember back 40 year ago,guys putting 15 inch vw tires on full sized cars.Crazy they drove them cars on the streets daily.
Don't forget this car hit the wall one time.
This Nova will be going nice and straight. Rich your the best at these set ups. Thanks for sharing! 💯👊👍💕. Happy Holidays 🌲
That nova is badass
Cool 😎 !
Now Billy needs to fix all the issues you pointed out, getter done boy !!!
Awesome video great content👍
Sweet
never noticed the Yenko/SRC decal on the nova... nice touch...
I assumed drive shaft touching eather during burn out or on the lanch with rear suspension separation but the transmision crossmember i would definitely not of trusted it hes ben lucky it held up at all thats alot of power transfer he might want to check all his mounts/motor plate or anything attached to the drive line for cracks to be on the safe side if that crossmember has moved any it might of allowed other thangs to shift or move to i also agree with adding atleast adding removable k member between control arms👍
Good job bro why you won’t put a pro charger on the nova
That steering arm could absolutely be twisted, he did hit a wall with it.
Good catch 👀transmission mont & driveshaft definitely needs to be changed bad design on rear mont
I like the spin you did on the yenko and SRC on the intake. Is that actually a yanko Nova?
Rich, get a digital level to check the steering arm plumb.
thx Rich we need SRC going straight? lol btw did ya check the TRANNY ? lol maybe the chute comming out ?
man Billy's car has come along way but that front crossmember is rough lol
That’s pretty much how it was when I bought it. This car has been through a lot but it’s what I could afford 3 years ago. I bought it for 12k and you couldn’t touch a double frame rail 25.2 car for that now.
@StreetRacingChannel 12k is a steal, it's come a super long way for sure and It's like do you start cutting and where do you stop or replace amd upgrade hence the camaro
@StreetRacingChannel I think you have a good shot at the Xmas tree race though you have the power now
That steering arm looked twisted to me but im also watching it thru a camera 😊
Billy did put the drivers front into the wall. Driver side being bent is a good possibility. To me the driver side looked like it was bent inward significantly compared to the passenger side
Always a pleasure seeing the care you put in your work 🤔🙏🏾💪🏾🇺🇲&🗽4all✅
Billy did hit the wall in the Nova, the car hit the driverside the hardest from my memory could have twisted that arm in the process
Really need to tie that front A frame in, and address that rear transmission support to be stronger
Pretty sure driveshaft is rubbing due to the car being setup for a radial. It raises up in the rear which would cause the groove in driveshaft
You definitely want the person that you trust with your car to have this level of OCD
When Billy hit the wall was it on the drivers side ??? That could be the cause of bent steering arm .
I remember when he first put this Nova on the track, he hit the wall with it. I don't remember which side though. Billy could tell you.
He hit the wall due to oil under the tire when the Mallory came out the crank n went thru the oil pan, it hit pretty on the drivers side mostly but head on
Driverside, left lane at Milan, Michigan
@@robertmcgee3146 it wasn't at Milan it was at ozark Raceway park in Missouri
Looks twisted leaning inward
As much as I hate to say it,some areas of the car are poorly done.The driveshaft is especially dangerous and a good reason to have a skilled mechanic like Rich working on your car.
That situation Swift the left side wheel is because the front rail is bent from the accident
Do you put weight in the driver's seat when doing the alignment? Just curious if it makes a difference?
Yes absolutely we do on any race car 👍 good question
Thank you and yes attention to detail I would have you fix my cars if I lived there!!!!
Steering arm could be bent he made a left turn and smacked the wall once
He needs to get smithcraft front end
Yeah it does look a little bent
War in 5he woods
Just hearing your fingers rubbing on the drive shaft it sounds thin to me?
K. D up the hill?
He's got radials on it. Yeah, it's separating. Need to fix that when you put the 1/4 mile gear in it. That car will ride out on prep with a gear.
Hellyeah
That tranny mount is no bueno I can’t beleive that passes tech
Don't think it's ever been threw tech
All i seen under there was a crap load of weight that could be shaved
The car does track crooked.
Love Nova’s, but they’re too much work to make fast race cars out of.
Remember he did hit a WALL ? BUT me id be checking if the mounts aren't moving ?? and as i said check the TRANNY COS he/she IT may have a problem lol Aussie humor lol
Chassis is JUNK!
Let's see your junk little fella

Where's your car at @@bobbrinkerhoff3592
For one its never the car it's the driver . And he's built this from the ground up . And id put money on Billy every day and time . Src for life
This car puts down a good patch everywhere it goes and has been putting down considerably godly passes with no issues besides a junk engine that he had someone else build to save time . But after uncle Bob fixed it . I bet you won't line up with him
Yikes
Driveshaft is trash 🗑
Bogus undercarriage
Where's your car at little fella
Big dumb wheels ruined it
Awesome alignment rack. Looks alot better than our 20 year old Hunter that we keep updated.
