Editing all night to get these videos out for you guys! Our class is sooooo fast, we’re warming up Leroy as I write this to go make our round 2 qualifying rip.
Anyone hating on the manufacturers when their stuff breaks needs to chill and realize you’re only doing Cleetus a disservice because it will make his sponsors less inclined to donate or discount parts. He’s got the stick shift record for a reason, most of these parts were never designed to be doing seven second passes.
Pedro Borges pushing shit to breaking point it’s actually good because you can send it back to the R&D department of the company to see if they can improve on it. Plus shit goes fast
Stuff breaks but what’s great about the companies he works with is their outstanding support, getting him replacement parts overnight and researching what breaks so they can improve products or come up with better solutions
I want to say that I notice that you are always are polite to people in the time slip booth. It might seem like a minor thing but I don't think it is. I watch a fair number for drag racing channels and not everyone maintains there cool even when things aren't going their way. I think it really adds to the roll model factor for this channel since I can only assume it's popular with not just old guys like me but younger kids who love cars too.
Driving past that 10 second car like it was standing still really shows the difference between high 7's low 8's car compared to a 10 second car. Insane!
Great, great smiles that you share with everyone! I been resist but YOU bring back my best memories! Got a new BBC stroker, 12 pt. Cage w/swing out bars on cage. I'm 66 and disabled but not disabled for 1/4 mile any more. Thanks for reminding us of the fun! Happy as a tick on a fat lazy dog. Rides to Kroger are fun again. PS going back to 1980 order 2 stage NOS because I'm 3 miles from grocery store. Old school $10 gallon purple fuel love the smell. You and your crew are true sportmanship. That is rare these days...Thank You!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😇
Loving the forward-facing camera angle! As much as we love that purty mug of yours, seeing what you see as your rippin them tater chips is so much-er better. 🇺🇸
@ryan lemons its because thats race car life this isn't a daily driver this is meant to get beat to shit every time it's started, something you apparently don't know about yet
Complete honesty when I say this - never had a huge interest in racing like you do until I saw the leroy project begin. Amazing to see how far yall have come. Inspirational really.
@@jacobluck5291 Any time there's discussions about the data log. This one, specifically the oil pressure drop. Most will never notice, or care. I enjoy the little nuggets about their thought process and what they're doing to keep the car alive.
@@carsetc1794 Yep.......without gaining knowledge, ya don't gain speed & lower times. It's all about learning from the data and applying those important little changes for the next pass.
Same here.. and not like they were helpless before but it seems like James has really helped lower 60 foot times via the suspension set up in the car nd getting it to hook up
Stay humble brother, stay humble.. You've always been true to what you want and believe and never took crap or followed anyone. You've always been you. Keep on keeping on! Hell yeah brother!
Been here since you bought old Leroy and all I have to say is, hell yeah brother. Living the dream Garrett, I always knew your channel would be successful but to see where you’re at now, is just amazing brother. Keep up the good work and congratulations to you, cooper, Holley, and the entire team. You guys are the reason I’m inspired to be building something for the track right now. Cheers 🍻
they attempted to get in touch with original owner but they were unsuccessful the original owner had the corvette special order so the door plates had the owners name "Leroy" hits the name of the car now
Every since you brought James on board y’all getting better and better! I was doubting you’d ever see the 7s banging gears.. boy was I wrong. Good job to all you guys.
As I watched this yesterday I was saying to myself how it's BS that you're never on the trending page. Low and behold, you made on the trending page! About time they had the best channel/group of people on TH-cam showing up! Congrats to team Bartle Skeet!
EVERY purpose built car is a test mule for the parts put on them to make them faster/stronger/more reliable, etc. and when you get up to the power levels that these cars are at, shit is GOING to break!! The companies that make and supply these parts LOVE it when the breaking point is found, it only HELPS them 1) know if their shit is worth a damn and, 2) gives them something to take back to R&D to play with for the next gen of parts!!
So I'm at the point in the video where we see Fred "harlequin daddy" 1320, James being parachuted in, Emmmiiiilllliiiooooo, and Kyle from Boosted Boiz, and Brent and Shane from P.F.I. is this even real life? Freedom levels cannot be contained. Bald Eagles: ENGAGE
After graduating WyoTech and turning my passion into a career by working at Goodyear really ruin the whole automotive field for me. Your videos have brought back my love for racing. Thank you so much Cleetus and Leroy
That would mean they would have to mount the 360 camera somewhere in the passengers seat just so you can see. It would be cooler if it was on the dashboard or something
I came. Upon the Leroy by accident before he put the lsa blower on it when he was being worked on in backyards it is awesome it has been a long journey
The 116 people that have disliked this video are not about 'Merica. Hell yea brother!!! Keep letting that thing eat. It's amazing watching how far you have come. You inspire us all to continue working and chasing our dreams!
Whats up brother I met your father today he rented the camper from our biz cool dude it was nice meeting him best of luck brother Ps.i also met Cooper's brother
Hello Garrett those are some awesome runs with Leroy. Don't be scared to turn him up a bit. I'm sure he can handle a little bit more you're just starting to get into his Groove I think. He's a well-built machine you guys did a real good job on him. Have fun and race on.
I’ve been following since before Leroy when you were doin wheelies on the mini bike. How seasons change, I see and know more about you guys than my own family. Do it for Dale my friends.
i watched this car all weekend, you even broke down right in front of our camp site. I will say this, I can tell you learned a lot about your car's potential this weekend. Great job competing even though this event is really tough to even qualify in class. Great job man
Welcome to Maryland. Where the weather goes from 80 to 55 like it's seen a State Trooper. Bundle up. It's fixin' to be a chilly weekend. Good Luck to the team and Leroy. Wish I could have came down to watch y'all.
I can’t wait for a tear down video of that engine. I wanna see all the tolerance changes on all the rotating assemblies. I have watched countless videos with so many passes on that engine with only the head gasket giving out and the rings keeping the compression good. Amazing build guys. #MURICA #HELLYEAHBROTHER!!!!
If he had better aero that would be easy. I'd jump up and down just to set a 7.6-7.5 that would be sick. And it's racing. Anything can happen even to the faster cars. I'm hoping they red light or at least a couple of them get taken out before Leroy has to line up with one. I just want to see him go at least a couple rounds.
Editing all night to get these videos out for you guys! Our class is sooooo fast, we’re warming up Leroy as I write this to go make our round 2 qualifying rip.

Roll model. I see what you did there.
Cleetus seems like a cool, calm, collected and polite guy all round. what a champ
It's one of the reasons I like the channel, he's classy with how he handles things.
That’s our boy Cleetus
On point 💯💯
Mt Dew needs to get their act together and release a special edition “Freedom Dew” bald eagles edition.
You mean liberty brew?? Or a new flavor?
Rider# twelve deadass. Next time I see a bottle of it. I’m buying 20 and shipping them to cleetus. Needs more bald eagles 😂
The bald eagle sound effect makes me crack up... every. Single. Time.
Just realized someone wrote that on the wheel between runs lol
Driving past that 10 second car like it was standing still really shows the difference between high 7's low 8's car compared to a 10 second car. Insane!
Didnt know you were into cars ostacruiser
Got dang theres so much freedom even osta dropped by
That thing sounded sick though was probably a nitrous small block with no boost so 10.0 pretty dang fast
🇨🇦 🇺🇸 ROCK!
Good to see you over on this channel Osta. Love your content as well.
Cleetus just know we appreciate the extra 2-3 hrs you put into your crazy day racing, just so we can keep up with it day by day.. DEW iT FOR DALE!
Totally agree I just hope he gets plenty rest so he can let’er rip later
The eagle scream when you hit the button, i was laughing so hard! #SoAmerican
Right!? Something about it cracks me up
Northwoods Angling same here.. I had to rewind and hear it again .. lol 😂
not a eagle scream that. Its a red-tailed hawk ...
@@oooweee3192 You take that back!

So funny
So excited for the return of Leroy to World Cup this year!

when you buy a beater and accidentally make a 7 second car...
Lol, accidentally.😁😁

It a progression.
wasn't exactly a "beater" but it is a salvage title... still impressive tho! lol

Love how you always compliment Leroy and talk to him. I'm hsure he listens and usually responds if he can
Just watching this video from last year getting myself hyped for this year. I can’t wait to see you guys ripping down the track.
come on pepsi co, DEW it for dale
Does any one else get excited when cleeter mcskeeter drops a another vid?
Keep using that helmet cam; it’s good to see forward for once 😂

You should Run a Carfax on Leroy. Find the original owner and offer him a ride in his old wrecked c5.
Sounds like a good idea id want to see that happen
I think the guy passed away? I think he said something about him when he bought the car.
they attempted to get in touch with original owner but they were unsuccessful the original owner had the corvette special order so the door plates had the owners name "Leroy" hits the name of the car now
Every since you brought James on board y’all getting better and better! I was doubting you’d ever see the 7s banging gears.. boy was I wrong. Good job to all you guys.
30+ psi? Leroy is literally a tank. He takes anything you throw at him, and turns it into flying bald eagles!
Boost doesnt equal horsepower lol
@@Spac3Monkey no one said it did lol
@@Spac3Monkey it equals more smiles :D
MaxSpeed It’s not really that much boost for the aftermarket block. There are guys shoving over 60psi into them.
maybe add a little nitrous :D

could not agree more
8.16 off the trailer god dam leroys looking good
That 1 test pass was not off the trailer they had to do a few things before hand this is not a street race nor is it no prep this is WCF.
The most american thing about leroy is the walmart battery.
Lolz why is this so funny?
What?!? Hell no. Walmart is now a Chinese conglomerate. The entire damn car is American made, especially that engine and drivetrain.
@@defeatignorance8681 it is clearly a joke

Runs 8.17 calls it a bad run..... pure legend
I have enjoyed you all making Leroy better and better all the time. Nice work!
After graduating WyoTech and turning my passion into a career by working at Goodyear really ruin the whole automotive field for me. Your videos have brought back my love for racing. Thank you so much Cleetus and Leroy
You need some ceramic coating on your headers.
Glowing headers = wasted heat.
Wasted heat = wasted energy to better spool turbos
Get those scavengers!
Ceramic and wrap
@@joshuaborchardt4355 very true. Leroy needs all the cools.
Low timing raises egts
or bigger exhaust housings ? usualy red hot headers means to much back pressure
It would be so sick to have a VR video of sitting in the passenger seat for one of those passes. Oof!
That would mean they would have to mount the 360 camera somewhere in the passengers seat just so you can see. It would be cooler if it was on the dashboard or something
@@alexdodge2515 do they make a almost 180° one?

Impressive consistency in those test runs. Loved the new camera angle and well done on that qualifying time.
Get em Leroy! Give 'em hell and do it for Dale!! We are rooting for you Garrett.

13:08 Button is so American you can HEAR Bald Eagles when you press it
They should wire up a PA speaker so when they hit the button it blasts a bald eagle!
I was going to suggest exactly that...
GormyGorm it should play bald eagles & the general Lee horn
The national anthem would make a good sound going down the track
Psst dont tell anyone but that sound is actually the Red-Tailed Hawk, a Bald eagle sadly sounds like a developmentally challenged dolphin.
