Hey Herm, We just stand in the shop and verbally abuse it into runnin' better. It works as well as anything else we try. And now we have all winter to do it !
Shit, that's how the daily driver gets to staying reliable as well!
Ya cant truly appreciate a hotrod unless ya been cussing the thing out till early morning finding some ghost issue.
😂😂
Boy howdy !
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Truth!!!!!!
In a way, you're lucky to have learned through the hard knocks school of technology and smart enough to use new technology such as the chassis set up systems you showed. But, it's no wonder in the modern era that big money teams hire graduate engineers to figure set ups. Thanks for sharing your knowledge to us fans of racing.
Damn I am old. I remember using grain scales and putting a socket on the floor jack under the center of the rearend to measure wedge.
Likewise
For race fans: Load is how many beers before you get smashed
Great I watched this with my wife now I can't scale my car anymore, "Kenny said you can do that at the track!"
Took me YEARS to learn this stuff. Larry Mac has an amazing book, same as Steve Smith. Once you start gettin into front end geometry…thats the crazy stuff. Can do amazing things with a oem metric chassis, a torch and some clever bending lol
Thanx for the lesson Kenny! Need more of these!
I just learned at great deal just listening to you. Thanks
I enjoyed your instructional video as a racing fan and need to learn a lot more. Thanks for sharing and look forward to the next one 🏁
Love your Show, Your Awesome and keeping it Real!
Thanks for the info, Kenny!
Thanks that was very informative !
Your amazing kenny keep up the good work!
Kenny is very smart, he says he's not but that's a bunch of BS. He's learned through from the best.
Awesome, Thanks KWallace
Thank you for the video.
Very good video TY so much. Gonna get me a loadstick!
Good show 👍
4:05 thats the oddest blue id never seent. . . . fitting for 2023
interesting. thanks!
boy I like it when people say, "Dam Wallace that Nascar money sure comes in handy!!!!"
Herm I’m 67 yrs old. I watched a guy at his garage use bathroom scales to set his dirt car up. I thought how strange this guy must be crazy. Kinda like watching The Jetsons and thinking no way now look at us doing what the Jetsons did back then! 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
For the front shocks can’t you use a spring smasher to see where your front shocks are at for loads.
Race In Paradise, Mike. I miss ya, Boss.
So if you have a 3 link how do you set one of them up without scales in the rear since we use sliders and not coil overs well some or us use sliders very few coil overs.
How often do you end end up tightening the rebound a click or 3 ( assuming you have the ability yo adjust rebound and compression)when you add 1/2 or full turn because it causes the shock to top out unloading the chassis?
Could you not mount the scales in floor of the trailer somehow?
Herman get in here. Suppers ready 😂😂😂😂
10:32 That's what she said! 😂😂😂
Haha, Kenny not smart... you're the most underrated driver in all of motorsports.
How is Jughead doing?
Oh Great Wizard, now, tell the attentive class about the old Pogo Stick to know your corner weights at the track.
I watched a great legend roll into a track after chasing points four states away the night before. He ran like a tub of shit in the qualifier - they got there late and ran the setup that was in the car from the night before. Then he did his magic.
Completely put a new setup in - springs, shocks, set ride height - and then out came the Pogo Stick.
30 lap feature against the best of them and he takes down the win!
Flashbacks to '89 or so......Helping out a local late model father n son "team" set up the car via those grain scales!! Jack it up, adjust shock, place grain scale under tire, let car down, give the car a little shake, driver sitting on door sill and see what it is. Nope, not right, repeat process. Ugggg
Hay Redneck Kenny Racing is a game of physic but the true key is to know the track you will race on
Herm the dot has portable scales that you slide them under the front of your wheels all you have to do is drive up on the scales and there only they weigh just like your scales .the thing is they weigh only 20 to 25 pounds get you a set of them to carry with you they carry them in there trunk of there cars if you looking for portable sales .just thought you was looking for a travling set of 4
Are those rubbers just different thickness? Or is there a different compression number too?
Yes! (All of the above)
With out the hermanator i wouldnt be on here at all and how is franki doing
So Herman, how did Richard Petty win all those races without all these gismos???
Nobody else had them either.😂
Show them the rubbers- had me laughing.
I wonder how many people are taking down these numbers thinking the. Numbers are what Kenny is running lol
❤
Kenny what would those teachers say at Fox High School when you say you aren’t that smart!
I'm the same age as you Kenny. Technology has passed me up. This why I have stopped racing. Shock technology and and of this has passed me up.
🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Objects in the camera are smarter than they appear to be .......
I see a brown rubber...? Herm said blue...in the spring.
most local racers don't have Toyota's money to buy all that fancy stuff lol
I'm smart, Herman. I want the new rubber, not the used one 😂
haha
@KennyWallace36 NASCAR really lost my interest some years ago when they came out with just too much technology on the car. Racers is always going to be Racers whether we're racing or not. I think many of us want to come out and watch you run that dirt car, then go to a NASCAR race, no bulshit.
go real old school with a jack a 5/8 socket and measure inches of bite
I run a pavement midget and I block the car and then just use the scales to check!
Wish I'd known about rubbers sooner, would've had less kids....🤣🤣🤣
It does look like a lot of fucking work.
It’s not a new thing. Drivers have been calculating Spring loads for decades utilizing a Tape measure and math. Yes it can be done without a smasher because it’s math. A smasher is just easier. There’s still good reason to utilize scales with spring loads. In fact a car can be just as quick if you set up with scales the old way. As long as you understand the car dynamically.
Amazing how with all this 'stuff', we still screw it up...😅
Whst a load of shit!! 😆 just breaking your balls bro . Good stuff keep'em coming and stay safe 🇺🇸 🇺🇲
Kenny Wallace my mother passed away this morning from stage 4 lung,bone,kidney, and see
so sorry to hear that
@@KennyWallace36 Thank You
If that is the right rear you just made the car loose!
Leave it to Kenny to try and make himself look like a dumbass and everyone knows he's a very smart and knowledgeable guy with plenty of wisdom. 🤣🤣🤣
I have no idea what anyone sees in this guy other then as an entertainer. His presentation with regard to setup is just flakey and hard to follow.
can somoene explain why the left rear axal has to come out to scale a race car? i can understand the shocks but what does the left rear axal do vs th right?
Open wheel guys that I know don’t do that
I work on tour type modifieds. we pull the axle out just enough to get it free of the spine because when you roll the car forward and back after each adjustment the stagger will Bind everything up, including including the scales.
@@jerseyshoredroneservices225 right on... thanks.... i just learned something new
love the racers that get all uptight about their setups and refuse to help anyone act like jerk offs when asked for help you get things like "get outta here, who u tryin to help? and those are the same racers that wine and complain they cant win... videos like this make those racers very mad and they are only mad at them selfs cause htey suck
