    Clay, I'm sincere when I say this. You have to be one of the the most down to earth "rich" people I ever seen. Granted all I know is your CZcams persona but I doubt you change much off camera. You jsut seem like a genuine normal guy that I would get along with quite well. You're blessed with success and deservingly so, yet have not let it go to your head. Thank you. Maybe someday I will get to shake your hand. But I don't go to the races sadly. Such high tech in all those cars. And here all I want is a good truck to drive lol. Maybe my 01 will some day come out of the shop and treat me right.

    Been following NHRA off and on since the 1970s. Kinda sad that every aspect of the car is set in stone by the rules, leaving no room for innovation to the cars themselves. Rethinking the air system for the thrashes between rounds is an example of just about the only place left for innovation. Angry Hornet showed us the specialized tool for pulling the main-caps a while back; that sort of thing is incremental, but it all adds up. Keep on stomping the Loud Pedal, Clay -- your team rocks!

    The only disappointment I had with this video was that it was only 8 minutes long. You said that you will be in North Carolina for a few more days so maybe we'll get to see more of what goes on in the shop. If we're lucky, you might get over to the NASCAR shop with your camera.
