      Giving it the Elder's Blessing, I hear that the buff drastically reduces the random change of engine failures, and he also gives it the Detail of Approval, which reduces aerodynamic drag by an amount the Developer left unspecified in the manual I managed to find.

The bits you post on your social media stories kept my anticipation levels high for the video to finally drop. Let's also not forget about Leroy finally coming through during competition and performing the way we all knew he could.

    Honestly @CleetusM, how you communicate and interact with your crew/staff/mates, it's inspiring. Although you are running a business here, you don't only treat it as that. Your crew and friends are all still with you because of who you are. When there has been accidents or problems, your first instinct is to check everyone is OK. Not only that, if there is some process that can be changed to improve safety, you don't hesitate to act.
    The confirmation for me in this episode, was when you had your son in the driver's seat of mullet with you. The way you interact with him just shows who you are.

      Thank God everyone is ok! Cars are just material and can always be built again better than ever. The driver ain't always that lucky, some times they don't ever make it back to the track.
      I'm not trying to hate on your comment it's just some thing to think about. Look up Cecil Matthews on here and he's got a couple wrecks in his drag car that's my grandfather's older brother thankfully he walked away from both of those but had one that put him in the hospital for awhile but he was still trying to order parts from the hospital bed lol at over 70 still has no quit in him lol

      I, Cleeter is far more valuable than a rocket on wheels. Cleetus def carries a few extra spare of underwear, just in case he shites himself on the fastlane. 🤣
