  • Stevie Fast discusses his rise from being an unknown grudge racer to the premier nitrous tuner in the world. Stevie talks about his nitrous roots as well as his relationship with Marcus Birt, Billy Stocklin, Phil Shuler , and other influences on his racing life. This video covers Stevie Fast’s thought process and mentality of running Marcus Birts RVW car, the nitrous world record, the crash, rebuild, and return to dominance. Stevie vows to be the first nitrous car in the 3.40’s

    Steve, the time you spend doing these videos is some of the best fuel any racer could ask for to keep people interested. You are fun to watch, and the stories you share in the videos are like nothing else anyone is doing in drag racing today. Keep doing what you're doing! When I see you, I see a drag racer who is truly living the dream. Much respect.

      Scott Russell I totally agree. Stevie is by far one of my favorite guys to watch and listen to.

      LOL, I was thinking the exact same thing LMFAO - (also, to the others, nice one on getting a Haney joke in there, LoL --- I love that promod is progressively doing better to the point where names are becoming more 'household' so to speak, that's really awesome and encouraging for the sport to say the least! + if Keith were to have read the joke that was made, I know he'd laugh, so good sh*t all day long!)

    I love the nitrous! Reminds me of the first time we hooked it up in my dads '90 mustang. Turned down the timing and forgot to put back in the spout connector, It popped and sputtered. Pulled over and popped the hood and reconnected it. Took off sideways with 4 guys in it grinning from ear to ear. Almost hit a dog. Never forget that,

  • @dmeemd7787
    @dmeemd7787 Před 4 lety

    Super stoked to see you guys getting everything back together!
    Also, really enjoyed the way you told the story! Usually most people post some 5-minute video explaining, well to be honest, basically NOTHING OR just talking about how part x broke and they're going to mag it every 2 passes and cycle it out every 20 runs instead of every 30 runs (or something along those lines, just making a example) and that's it...no real information or detail..
    Now here, I LOVE that you put a few of the important backstories in with history of you and others (Billy, Marcus, etc.) personal experiences and racing experiences/programs and straight-up telling what happened and all in an awesome and seamlessly spoken story!
    ...and to drive the point home (more than is necessary, but what the hell, lol -- I have some family that are into drag racing and some that aren't (neither really follow it much anymore or at all) BUT I send them videos from your channel all the time and they REALLY enjoy the way stories are told, the tech-side, the tree-chopping side (😂), tearing apart a torque converter and so on...so yeah, just keep being you! It's DEFINITELY helping the sport, it makes people smile and it's great content for all. 😊🤘🏻🤘🏻

    Stevie. I know you do too but I hope to see you have the opportunity to turn the screws on a fuel car at some point. As an ex-tuner I believe one can have all the knowledge in the world but a strong intuition is the key. That ability to look at a complex problem (the tuneup), where many of the variables don't readily contain a value to plug in to the equation and come up with the solution is what sets the average crew chief apart from the great ones. You got that, man

    I wont say who (but it'll be partially obvious, lol) I was talking with various single and multi-car teams/drivers I know up at the MWPMS in Tulsa last weekend and I brought up how much I love the fact that (since no one is doing anything about some of the BS rules and/or the whining about parity) that you and your guys are are making needed changes and so on with various sanctioning bodies happen by saying you're going to do something and going out there doing it, thus 'single-handedly' making better competition, weight changes, and so on and so on...and quite literally EVERY group of drivers, owners and crew I was talking with ALL agreed... hell, you can see them light up with excitement knowing they will be able to haul ass in the NHRA and so on because of what you and the people you work with are doing behind the scenes and on social media like CZcams 🤘🏻

    So at those flow rates of nitrous do yall use something like water injection to stay away from detonation or excessive heat? Also reason i ask is because i seen a few passes where it was hauling ass and hardly any flames like it had a lot of timmimg in it.

    Awesome thing you have done for the sport an for Marcus. You could have kept winning being a few tenths faster than everybody else, but they would have kept trying to slow you down.. Whats the fun in that. You showed the world what us nitrous lovers already knew... Nitrous is just as competitive as any other power adder.. Its all in the tuners hands! The most bad ass thing about it all is you got them handicapped twin turbo cars scrambling to try and get back competitive with ya blowers an nitrous cars...thats awesome to me bacuse they already at an advantage havin 2 turbos thats 2 power adders In my OPINION. I Can not wait till the tracks reopen! I cant wait to see you take that nitrous car an shadow 2.0 in the 3.40s Keep them gorilla 🔥🔥 litt!! 💪
