THIS IS WILD!!!! We absolutely LOVED being there on Sunday, seeing you make passes and seeing your crew be SO INCREDIBLE at what they do!!
You're the best!
Keep it up Clay former military we know the word never quit. Just keep moving on and keep a smile and keep going. Love your content. Stay safe.
I know it's a pain in the ass for Jim-O to sit down and talk about the runs... but, boy is it interesting!! Please, keep doing this format.
Love the fact Jim is comfortable to explain these things on camera. Thanks to the whole crew.
We agree!
Yes! Clay and Jim. More debriefs … that’s the ticket. I love the unadulterated strategy breakdowns 👍👍🏼👍👍🏼👍👍🏼
Me too😁
You got it!
Yes, please!!
@@claymillican25 sweeeeet!
I enjoyed the post run explanation. Very glad no one was injured, that's a lot of pieces flying FAST, and so many people that close.
lol my dumbass read post run explosion at first.
Me too
Love hearing jimbo explain everything. Because i know alot of thought goes into every pass down the drag strip. Excellent content clay. Thanks for posting!❤❤
Hi Clay, I’m the kid who hung out around your pit a lot at the Indy Nats. I really hope you see this!
Hey there!
@@claymillican25 Oh my! Hi Clay
@@SandersAviationI saw it also and I'm up in Juneau Alaska hi there
Hey there kid, hope you can work your way up and follow in Clays footsteps one day.
@@young11984 all ready working on it, one of the crew chiefs for my Gpaw Super stock car. The team we are on with two cars, the owner and his son build cars. I will probably take my grandpas car or get a car built for me.
Really like the more detail with you and Jim O, loved the whole video. I have gotten back into watching drag racing because of your channel.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Crazy weekend for sure !!! Really dug the powow with jimbo , good stuff ( as long as its not the impersonators ) 😂🔧👍🇺🇸🏆
You got that right!
I always like the conversation in the trailer after the run. As an old drag racer, learning what happens is the most interesting part. When I am at the races, I might watch one round from the grandstands but the rest of the time I will spend in the pets watching the car get prepped for the next round.
Loved the Jimmo interview. His explanations coupled with the humor and candor, rocks it!
That detonation was good for a headache for sure…
Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
It was unreal the monster runs laid down everyone, you qualified 10th (?) with a 3.68, nuts! Thanks for the breakdown with Jim-o AND showing us the carnage!
Sitting here in London, England and I can tell you that the tech content is pure GOLD. There is absolutely nothing else out there that shows anything like the detail you guys are sharing, so keep up the good work!
Wow that certainly showed the power of what is contained within these fuel motors , a literal explosion ! I do enjoy the new lounge portion , but I hope Jimbo does not feel like he is being put on the spot . The other way was a little more casual . Either way I'm good. Good luck and thanks Clay.
Jim is an awesome crew chief and,he has a great imagination. Keep it up guys. And Jim has a great sense of humor.
Yes yes yes, Clay! I liked the debriefs and even the commercial breaks. Keep em coming, and knock em out in Vegas!
Hey Clay, Loved the post run debriefs today. I still enjoy seeing you all discuss the track run while evaluating data as well. Combine the two and I think you will have a real winner on your hands! And Clay don't stomp that pedal quite so hard, hate seeing the car reaching for the sky!!
You have an amazing team. All good people. Glad you are ok and I am hoping to catch you at a race soon.
I think I've told you I started working in my uncle's shop when I was 12.
Years before, my uncle had been a flat head guru & was the mechanic on the local ¼ mile dirt track hero's race car for years.
I remember hearing them talk about racing when I was little. Being a normal boy, an explosion & pyro-maniac, my ears always perked up when they talked about blowing up motors.
Boy, was I disappointed when I got older & experienced my 1st blowed up engine.
I have wondered, at times, through out my life the origination of the phrase, 'blowing up an engine.'
At 70, I finally know.
Thanks, Clay... never too old to learn something new.

Just my humble observations. I like the previous post run trailer footage. The emotions are more real. Crewmembers walking in and out with data, real reactions, unprepared responses, etc. I like to watch you and Jim and the crew working things out. Now it looks like you're just interviewing Jim after you've gone through all the steps to dissect the run. You're special Clay. Keep it up.
I like the way you did your video. The look on Jim Os face when Donna came in with the crack an egg thing was priceless
I actually DID enjoy the breakdown. For ignorant people like me who knows nothing about drag racing, it was enlightning. I appreciate it Clay. Keep it coming.
I ALWAYS enjoy your content and especially on the races. Home track so great to see you here at the Texas Motorplex here in Ennis,TX. Been out here since it began in 1986 since I live close to the track 😊. I appreciate the in trailer information so much and if I could hit a love button I would. The time ya'll take to actually talk about what happens and how you may change things (with a few deleted tuning things I am sure 😉). This track always has great performance and with the perfect weather this year it was killer!!! Enjoy seeing the entire team and the behind the scenes of how it all comes together! Great episode and I look forward to the race day one when you post it!! Thanks for being just one of the best personalities in our sport and always being a positive role model for everyone... that smile and enthusiasm is just awesome!
Thank You 🙏
It's the Stampede of Speed for a reason 10 days of fun all kinds of racing and concerts all at the same time gotta go next year. Bigger and better in Texas.
We love taking our dogs with us in the RV. BILL Schultz’s first words when we would meet up was “where’s your dogs”?
While we would be talking about our game plan he would usually have our Chaweenie patty on his lap.
Bill was a lot like Lahaie. Small changes and risk vs reward.
Good weekend kids 🤘🏼
Loved the sit down with Jim. That little bit of data you were able to show is awesome. Would love to see more of what you can share without tipping off the competition. Thanks Clay for the great behind the scenes.
I definitely love to hear the tuner talking more about each lap. Great stuff with Big Jim, love all you do Clay it is a great team
Thanks 👍
Elvis ate that combo peanut butter banana a lot!!
Man, there's nothing better in racing then you and Jim in a sit-down !!!
Good showing and keep the positive attitudes! Race on team!
I absolutely love seeing jimmo sharing his thoughts. Great stuff. What took place at dallas this past weekend is what my brother and i call "a speedfest". Wow.. just wow!!
Glad you didn't get hurt when the engine let go and when the wheelie came down and when the guy smacked the tow vehicle. It was great to finally meet Jim O on the start line and shake his hand, and meet Donna at the pit. I only got to say hi to you, but you were busy getting things opened up and running. I gave John my business card, so if y'all need anything I can help with, let me know. Love the sit down with you and Jim O. (Even the commercial breaks 😅). Good luck in Vegas.
Liking the extra input from Jimmo. Really enjoyed watching his video with "Engine Builder".
Absolutely love the new “Jim-O-vision” segment!! What an up and down weekend but love to see the entire team pull together and turn on some win lights. Jim-O and Clay are both true inspirations and I can’t wait to root for this team to succeed in the future. What a season!! Keep stompin’ on that loud pedal!! P.S. miss seeing Bruce in this weeks video
Even after huge explosion, you had the sense to pull to the side. I am sure your fellow drivers/teams appreciate that move. Nice job Clay.
Oh wow, Love me some Jimmy Dale…..Tell’em boi……Clay you are the best!! Great content as always 🏁🏁🏁🏁 Stomp on that loud pedal!!!!
Love ya man! It was awesome talking to you and I think next year I’m gonna spend the weekend god willing! All of the inside looks are amazing the whole crew is just as humble as you! God bless buddy! Can’t wait to see race day bud!
You're the only reason I still follow the NHRA. You are the best.
Clay, Unbelievable!!! In the slow mo you can see that the parts are not even through falling and your steering out of the groove. Too professional, dude!!!! Thanks.....
The crew chief in the lounge interview is great. Good job Jim. But, you guys have always covered the details good enough previously. What a thrash team!
The race breakdown you both did was really helpful. For someone who is just a viewer and not a participant, it's really helpful to get more of the technical details. And for all those fans in the stands, they can go back in the youtube archives and get the nitty gritty on what happened during the race they were witnessing.
Yes! More debriefs. That’s the way to go. I love the post run analysis, and the reason why the car did what it did.
I enjoy the lounge Deep Dive, however… I REALLY like the “live lounge” as it captures the emotion of the last pass. And Kaylynn shows up sometimes. 😂
Nothing beats the sound of top fuel !
Clay, long time fan, Ive got a sammie for you .slice bannana lenghth wise ,( like bacon strips) . Lather one bread slice with Mayonnaise & place banana on Mayonnaise. Next put peanut butter on other slice .then a handful of potato chips ontop of peanut butter . Put the 2 slices together and smash them together . You now have the incredible TayTay smash !
I love the new lounge explaining the runs and what changes are made to better the runs… Please keep it going!!!❤❤
Absolutley loved the chats with Jim O & The inadvertant "Ad Breaks" ha ha, Great video with a Massive Ka-Blammo! Thanks Clay!
I loved the sit down with Jim. Everything was explained in a way most could understand and it's just a more interesting way to get the information out there. Enjoy watching all your content and hopefully you get close to Kentucky where I can come watch you race. Stay loud and fast brother!!
The analysis segment was really good. Also amazing how the whole team recovered so quickly to get the job done.
I'm just happy to see that you are no one else was injured , if not worse since it was literally right in the middle of the starting line crowd that's within 30' radius of where she coughed her lungs out..
That's a win win if there ever was one, and Someone was definitely watching over everyone standing there at that exact instance that it happened.
Stay safe, and stomp on that LOUD PEDAL Brother!
The debriefings after runs is always awesome, thank you for working them back in. Congratulations to you all for steady improvement all year. Hope the momentum continues, it’s been great to see.
Best ever content !! Post mortem in the lounge is great, feel very privileged to have Jimo share some secrets with us. Not sure how you guys could know oil pressure was gone, the noise of the idle cackle would drown out the big ends complaining. I watch the race from Australia on NRHA TV, and the back story - wheelie for 1 sec, why the belt let go- is fantastic and lets me enjoy the sport so much more. Well done to everyone & thanks.
Thanks Clay and Jim. Absolutely awesome listening to you talk. Mabe in the off season you can do a story time. The good ol fishing stories but about racing. Thank you for all that you do. We love this channel
"Look at the big old shrimp" 😂
Thank you for making sure the team is always well fed, Miss Donna! I see a Just Crack an Egg partnership in the future... 😂
thanks to JimO and yourself for the detail on the tuning and runs !! and the whole team for the Great turn around !! Good Luck for the rest of the season !
I look forward to Clay, Jim O. And crew’s recaps after every race almost as much as the races. You guys and gals are the best! I predict another win this year and a knock on the championship door next year.
I love hearing Jim O give his thoughts about what is going on with the car and the tracks! Man, would I like to do some bench racing with the two of you! Las Vegas baby!!!
Enjoyed the more in depth Clay/Jimbo race review. Thanks Clay 👍
Being on the inside with you and Jimbo is a great add!
I just thought qualifying was wild.. Race day was wheelie crazy too.. 💙💙💙
Great job Clay. Thank you and Jim O for your perspective on a very tough weekend.. Commercial breaks:) where great as well.
My daddy’s friend Steve got a connecting rod from your car, he gave it to me today. I’m very honored to have a piece from such an incredible machine. I loved the day I first got to see top fuel racing, and a little piece of my childhood came back to me. You’re incredibly talented, sir
Thanks for taking us along for the ride. I enjoyed meeting you , Jim-O, Rick, Izzy, Kay Lynn, Austin, sisters.... and Emily and Aaronas a bonus. SOTLP.
Please keep doing the interviews in the trailer. I have learned a lot about what makes the dragster go and you explain things that I never knew. Glad you are alright and that one is for the books.
That sure was a very big boomer Clay but very glad you and the crew didn't get hurt. And yes I really liked the interview with Jim-o too. Another great video! Thanks Clay!
Was interesting to see both Brittany's car and Clay's car both traveling light and right in that right hand lane in qualifying. Love getting more tech info from Jim'O !
Hey Clay, absolutely love the new format. It’s really cool to get the inside track on what’s going on. Love it, be safe.
Awesome ,thanks for sharing! I like the extra input from Jimbo and I would like to see more of the crew thrashing between rounds. 🕊
yes clay love the 1 on 1 With Jimbo most of us Don't understand the data, but Jimbo explains it in simple terms. You have a awesome crew chief and team. Don't ever stop stomping on that loud pedal
Thanks very much for the in depth conversation with Jim o.
So appreciate hearing the technical aspects of drag racing. Thanks for sharing as much of your secrets as you do.
I like everything about the videos. As a retired blown alcohol driver, I appreciate the explanations of what went wrong.
I love watching y'all race! There were several cars that lifted the front end, some much worse than others. Traction was definitely at hand. Keep marching the good march. Go get em in "Vegas Baby!"
KABOOM!!! Man, that even scarred the crew. Glad youre ok Clay!😮😮😮
That's a nice looking head. Wish mine was that scar free.
The Tech stuff with Jimo is one of the best parts for me. The more, the better
.
I love it when Jim shows us the screen on what happened. keep it up. See you in Vegas. I'm bringing my brother who has never seen top fuel before.
Love when yall are talking in the lounge. Here in Northern California we don't really get the inside info like that. Love it guys!!!
Thanks Clay these are awesome, for a gearhead like me having my buddy Jim O talk about the engine setup and what happened is awesome.
Wow what a blow up! Loved the way JimO had time to break down the run and fill in what happened in detail. Love it. Can’t wait to see how you guys go next season 💪💥💥💥👍
What an awesome video, Clay!! I loved the changes you made for recapping the rounds!! I'm glad you're OK after that massive explosion!! I love how you interact with your fans, especially the kids. They will remember meeting & talking to you for the rest of their life! There's no telling how many kids will become dragracers because of you being such an amazing ambassador to the world of Dragracing!! Thank you for everything you do on & off the track, Clay!!!
WOW ! That was a crazy explosion. I'm glad you and everybody is OK after that. You guy's are awesome!
Jimmy Dale`s a hoot, and he also loves to STOMP on that loud pedal. Like Blaine, my long hair will never be in a bet, keeps my head warm in winter.😁 Love how Jimbo puts in terms everyone can understand. Wow Clay, it really went BOOM, Thank Jesus no one was hurt.. You have a great crew Clay, they got you back on track. They never give up. Keep that format Clay with Jim, it rocks. Stay safe Parts Plus Team, God Bless.
Most don't understand the explosive nature of nitro cars. I've seen a few pop during the warmup with crew close by, no one hurt.
Love ❤️ your new post race format! Following you makes the race soooo much more exciting. Now that I've got NHRA Live my weekends are full. DAW!
Definetly enjoyed The Jimbo Show! His expert perspective wraps up and makes the whole event less chaotic. Not that The Clay Show is CHAOTIC per se, but when sitting down with Jimbo it all makes more sense. Hope it stays ... even if the look alike are standing in! Lol!
Clay, i love your content i was not able to talk to you at Indy. I was hanging out with my buddies at Zizzo's camp. I brought my 11 yr old son over to your pit, and he talked to Jim O, who talked about the computer system and how the car is tuned. He loved the in depth and someone talking to him like he was an adult. Thank you both for being the kind of people you are. And stomp on that loud pedal!
We are so darned lucky to have a debrief at all! To my knowledge, no one else makes the time to do this. I'm torn, I like the old way for the data a bit more though. This way is fine but the overall unwinding after the run with everyone talking (the old way), is my vote. You guys and girls had a great weekend in the end! Cheers Clay.
Wow ! that was Huge !💥 Absolutely love to watch the new format of you and JimO's recap talk !. Keep it coming ! 👍
Jimmy Dale is a hoot that's fer shur! Did the temp drop there like it did here with the eclipse? Dropped a couple degrees. Took longer for it to warm back up than what it did to cool down. Almost seemed like it helped that cool front push a lil farther south too! 🤷 Anywhos. The breakdown after the run is pretty cool to hear about whatever the case may be. Like Clay says, "That's drag racing!". Donna just trying to keep you boys fed. 😁. 🤔 Is there any kind of lightweight material that could be put behind the driver to help deaden the shock wave from mishaps like that. 🤷. Brucey go back to his mainland? TY for sharing! Isn't that the hi way that was dedicated to Chris Kyle behind the suites? Remember seeing a sign going down that hi way when I was down that way for some races. 🤷
Yes, more of Jim O. is always a good thing. And I love the tech/tuning talk.
Hi Clay, I am glad your doing well after that motor gernaded at the line! Man, I have never seen a block pop like that and I have seen a few in the last 58 yrs. Just glad your safe and sound. Love your show brother!
Hey Clay, checking in all the way from Winchester, UK. Love your channel and these videos 👍😁👍. New format: debriefs with Jim O is awesome - keep doing it. Good luck for the rest of the season. You guys are incredible.
It was great watching you and Jimbo interviewing together...
Your videos help me understand so much more and I have been around this type of racing for 46 years thank you
I have followed the top fuel racing since I was 5 or 6 years old. My dad staged the cars at Amarillo drag strip in the sixties. I have learned so much since I subscribed to your channel listening to you and your team. Yes, from me on the format with Jim O. 👍
I know what going over 100 mph with 750hp under the hood across a desert is like, but I cannot fathom 11, 12, 13,000 hp pushing me along. Thanks for taking us on this ride with you Clay.
I appreciated you and jimbo going into depth keep doing that. STOMP ON THAT LOUD PEDAL.
I hope you and Jim-O keep doing that - I really enjoyed it. Thanks!
wow!!! Some serious carnage. Glad you're alright!!! Thanks for sharing all the inside stuff!
