It's always a treat to have these discussions with Kaylynn about the clutch workings on your videos. She's not just here because she's a woman... she knows her craft, well! Diversity is such a wonderful thing when it is organic and not forced!!
She's awesome and is always elbow deep in engine stuff, she's exactly the type of gal that the left in your country is scared of, or scared to admit exists.
I remember when this new crew came on. They've certainly matured. Kaylynn is a great spokesperson for the team and drag racing. I hope she gets more public and wider recognition and exposure in promoting my lifetime favorite sport.
Lol
Iâm gonna call it right now I predict Clay to win the U.S. Nationals in 2023 !!!
I will join you on this one!! Not only does he have the ability, But, He deserves a Nationals win!!
Top 5. Every track will be a new track for the car. No data. To finish 1 is asking a lot. Top 5 is more amazing for a new car than most people think.
Sorry, misread. Thought you meant the whole season lol.
win or lose im sure he will bring us into the car with him he is awesome for his commentary and videos up front and great way to stay with what is happening race by race
event by event
Another amazing opportunity to see the behind perceptive of a team effort before the season. Good luck to all, go fast and stay safe....
Glad to see the old and new crew !! Car coming along great and canât wait for testing to start!!
Clay there is nothing boring about what you are doing and putting on CZcams love all you are showing on your channel keep the great content coming and I can't wait for the new drag racing season to start
I appreciate that!!!
Clay praying for you and your team on an amazing year!!!! Can't wait to see you win the championship!!!
Good to see the Crew moved with you.
Thanks for all the updates Clay! Really looking forward to watching you this season! Stomp on that loud pedal!!!
What a fun team! Nice to see the ladies rockin' top fuel, be safe out there!
Well Happy Belated Birthday, Clay. The insight on the clutch discs was nothing short of a wealth of information so thank you for asking those questions of Kaylynn. She's SHARP and knows her metallurgy & a true asset to the team. You've got great people on the team and you're well on your way to some big W's this year. As always, thanks for sharing and we're looking forward to the next video. Cheers!
2023 is your year Clay, best of luck to ya, your content is second to none. Thank ya much
Kaylin &Izzy are gonna be very busy with the pure inventory of parts!!!!
This is SO INTERESTING seeing some of the construction and adjustments (driver compartment) of the car. Discussion of the clutch discs and their heat-treated hardness is wonderful.
I think it would be great for young people if you could have the various people who work on the car talk about their education or how they got the experience or training needed to get their jobs working for a Top Fuel team.
Clay, thank you so much for all of your wonderful videos. Absolutely fantastic. (Subscriber)
Good to know the changes, thanks for bringing us all up to speed. You obviously know that this "extended team" needs to know these things and that we care. You must be excited! Cheers dude.
Very informative, and behind the scenes. Keep it coming for our learning enjoyment.
Clay, Awesome video! Love Top Fuel Drag racing. IN fact I gave you a time slip or two and Maryland International Raceway back in the day! I wish you and the team the best of luck this year! Love your attitude and BTW Can you and Doug "Zilla" Herbert be that close together! LMAO!!! Take care! Be safe and I look forward to the 2023 NHRA season! -John McDonnell
For a "car" without either a battery, alternator, starter, radio/stereo, and without a "water system" (radiator, water pump, etc.) there's a mass of "plumbing" and "wiring". All of which is designed to last a maximum of 4 minutes (Start up to shut down). Amazing.
Happy B-day!! My 57th is tomorrow.
Happy Birthday Clay!!! The new shop is amazing. Really cool video, thank for sharing Clay!!!
A BIG Happy Belated Birthday Clay. I hope I am able to get to Topeka, KS. this year to see you stomp on your loud pedal. Be good, and be safe. Thanks for the inside content of the life of a NHRA top fuel driver.
good on you, Clay..Happy B-Day from me to youall..(loved your session with Emily) !!!!!
New car is looking awesome. Such a great facility/wshop. Happy belated birthday Clay đđ
All the best for 2023; regards from Australia.
Clay, you are a class act, enthusiastic, fun gentleman. I always look forward to watching your videos and congratulations on your win this year, long over due.
Hope to see you at Pomona for the world finals and hang out with along with my cousins Bret and Carol Goethe.
Stay positive my brother, good luck for the remainder of the season.
Love the tech talk from your AWESOME clutch master.
Happy birthday, Clay! I remember when I still had a 29-inch waist, decades ago... Best team in the NHRA. Rock on!
Great video as usual, Clay! Can't wait to see you stomp on that loud pedal!
happy birthday mate! from australia and just letting Clay know we are going to get you and your wife to australia in the future because you have a lot of friends here in racing and out, see you soon.
Could you talk about about the sensors. What you are measuring and how that data is used. Also how much an advantage do multi car teams have with all the data they collection.
Clay, Im new to your channel and so happy i found you. I live in Bakersfield, Ca. and maybe you have heard of us. When i was a kid the March Meets were a pretty big deal as far as drag racing and my Dad and i never missed it. I got to watch the Mongoose and the Snake go at it along with big Daddy Don Garlets. Shirley Muldowney. Anyways sorry Im just rambling on. But Im excited that I found you and im learning so much watching you. Its so cool getting this insider perspective. Your a great guy. I love your positive attitude. You can tell you love doing what your doing. Ill be rooting for you this season and hope to come to a few races to watch you in person. Thank you for doing this. I will tell my friends about you as well. Thanks again. Drive Fast and Take Chances. but be safe .
Sincerely Steve
Your videos r never boring! I like seeing all things top fuel! Happy birthday!!
Glad you like them!!!
Great video Clay and Happy B'day! I love the Ford Performance logos on a hemi.. LOL
I was totally blown away whenever kaylin got to talking about clutches! Mind blown đ€Ż

Go getcha some, Cya @ the track.
What a great video! Thanks Clay!
Clay I really like to see the autism puzzle pieces on your helmet. My son has autism and it makes me very proud to see racers support the cause. Praying you have a great and safe year racing.
Interesting and informative. Thank you sir !!!
Thanks for sharing. I learned a lot.
Man I am hoping the new setup makes it easier for you guys and gals to beat the mega teams.
Wow, LOT's of changes !
SO GLAD YOLU ARE BACK STOMPIN' THE LOUD PEDDLE. ALWAYS KNEW YOU HAD TALENT
Appreciate these video clay. love the in-depth look in top fuel. stomp that loud pedal and turn some win lights this year!! đ€đ€
The section on seat belts was not boring. Everything about the car is interesting to those of us who are fans, but know little about the ins and outs of the car, See you in Pomona.
Happy birthday clay I watching our videos very day and I live in Tucson Arizona go of the win.
Happy Birthday Clay. From Seattle!!!
That looks like a shop I would love to work in...good luck to you all for 23 from the UK
Clay you must have the best personality in auto racing. It shows in your team as well. A group of quality professionals with a quality leader.
Happy birthday Clay!
Nothing is trivial to us viewing who have never worked on a TF team. Great to see all of it
Happy Birthday, Clay!
I really like the idea of a group of people working hard together to throw someone down a quarter mile in 3.6 seconds.
RACE CITY USA! Thats what i've said for 4 years with our drag&drive car there that won Sickweek 2022 and runner-up 2023. Its at Biguns shop and love how everything you need is within 15 minutes basicly :)
Good to see you still all together here's to a fast new season
Clay⊠Thanks so much for bringing us âInsideâ. Unbelievable, 1300 Clutch disks! Ms. Elbridge has one of the toughest jobs! Hope you are not too close to Doug Foley. I have bad feeling for him after problems with his Drive a Dragster deal.
Happy Birthday Clay ! Great video ; I can never get enough Top Fuel tech to suit me. Very entertaining and most informative. ( as always) Wishing you and the crew all the best in 2023.
Hi Clay, seeing/ learning about all the aspects of this car is wow- I think you are showing more hard core quality content/parts etc then any of the other TF teams. Maybe as more people see that your membership will increase?
Happy Birthday Clay! đ„
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAN !!! You're still living the dream. Looks like Rick isn't fooling around, he's getting you what you need for the 2023 championship. Great to see most of the team still with you. "Bruce" is soooo good at what she does, I think you're lucky to have her. Keep stomping and we'll keep cheering you on !!!
Yes we are!!!
Clay is just a down to earth cool dude that loves to race. Thanks for posting Clay. That was awesome. Love your stuff, you got a good team, good luck in 2023.
Great video thanks for sharing and good luck đđ
Were did kaylyn learn so much about the clutch? I love hearing her comments on your videos. Iâm a retired crew man from alcohol funny cars. I had to retire. Got too old, I feel like Iâm back in the pits when I watch your videos. I hope and pray you will win lots of races this year. You and your crew deserve it.
Can't wait for the season to start Clay, I feel good things happening this season,few final rounds,some trophies and oh how cool maybe set some records, God bless you and you entire family and crew.
Happy Birthday!!!! Looking forward to seeing what the new season brings your way. I'm really looking forward to you being at the top of the leader board. I know ya'll can do it.
Thank you so much!!!
Happy birthday young fella!!! All the best this race season đ
The level of fabricators in the Mooresville area is bananas. Hell thats where all my tig cups come from, Furick. Hopefully the move to a single company making all the NASCAR chassis didnt cause a huge talent drain from that area. Would be SUPER interested in seeing the hoses and electrical connectors you guys run on the topfuel stuff.
One of the reasons that I am in North Carolina in Concord, which is right outside of Mooresville, is because of the Motorsports involvement. Yes, being a hard core Draqg Racer can be rough in NASCAR land, but the technology sharing available is great! So glad to have more NHRA teams in the area! Got lucky and had Tasca right across the street when they were in Concord! Lots of fun the couple of times they brought the car outside and test fired it! Shook the whole area and that wonderful sound!
Happy birthday Clay!!! Can't wait for loud petal season! Always love your videos you always have the best content. I think this is going to be your year great team and great advances last year. Just keep stomping on that loud petal!!!!!
I liked the fit up for your belts. I'd like to see you around! We all know how racing can go. 9 seconds or 3 seconds. Safety is paramount! Hell, 12 seconds even!
i am sure that i am not alone loving the technical side of these video, i hope you keep them up. its also great to see the whole team back for this year, the longer the team is together, the better. hoping this will be your year...good luck
Great video! Good luck this season!
Clay your a long way from Mcleansboro! How exciting, from everything I've seen this off season you've gone up more than a "few" rungs on the ladder. Listened to Dave Moody interview Rick and Cody from the Daytona 500 Fan Zone. Rick is a RACER. And most of all he's got the $$$. See nothing but positives in 2023. Is this the biggest gig you've ever had?
Neat insider look and got me stoked for the upcoming 2023 season and the Gatornationals! Your crew are totally cool people. Thanks Clay!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY FROM CANADA!!
Congratulations new hire,thank you Brother Clay....SOTLP âïžâïžâïž

Clay, I am so looking forward to the new season with the new owner, shop and team members. I look forward to see you and the team moving up that top 10 list to the Championship in 2023.
Learn something every video. Thanks Clay. Happy Birthday!
Thanks Clay, Can see the excitement building as we get closer to you stompin' that loud pedal
You and me both!!!
Great video Clay, the team is just getting stronger and stronger, Kayo umm is such an awesome young lady, I remember when she joined the team as a rookie, and you are so right about Mooresville being a hub of great technology, I was lucky enough to have been there for three years and it was the best experience of my life. Happy Birthday Clay.
Keep the vids a comin' . Having crewed on a road race car and have run my own car, there is much effort that goes into racing that the casual spectator does not see, these vids fill the gap. These vids also show that sponsors need tended to as they want value for their $$, this included personal / car appearances.
10 years older than me and two inches less round the waist than me. guess i'm still drinking too much and not working hard enough! Happy Birthday, Clay!
Great video. Just excited for your team!
I look forward to following RWR Racing across all their platforms! Go win a championship Clay and co.
29" waist! WTF, Man? That was me in the 7th Grade in ~1970. đđ»đđșđž
Great Team ! Wishing you all a successful year and many Wallyâs
