You'll never see sadness like a man that just got done fixing their car, only for it to still be broken. I felt that one.
worst feeling ever
No joke, it sucks.
Main reason I’m parting ways with my street car
Yeah no kidding, been there far too often
@@BoostedBrando for a new project hopefully man.
Just as bad, you do all that, fix it only to have it break AGAIN soon after.
george was absolutely an amazing decision
turned watching clet’s vids from just entertaining to straight comedy LOL
@Funny putin says I love trump.
Was he drinking a beer 🍺 for breakfast @ 1:48 mark? 😂
No wonder Jeremy was pissy about George leaving Fasterproms.
@@mayshack well he did fire him after all. His loss
"they say in Oklahoma: if you don't change your oil... We will" had me rolling. George is hilarious, an excellent cameraman, and the dynamic between James and George is awesome. What a crew!
Best quote in McFarland history
George: We were freakin' hummin'
James: She likes it though.
🤣🤣
"They say in Oklahoma, If you don't change your oil, we will" LOL 😂
The thumb downs for this video must be the DOT employees
@Freedom Freedom He has fans?
czcams.com/video/ER2Z0ffFQxcu/video.html4u4
@Funny Quit spamming the comments with your porn filth!
We should re-name the state "Oklaholema" as a community.
@@irdmoose would finally represent our roads, sincerely an Oklahoman.
I keep saying, Brent is the MOST POSITIVE PERSON EVER‼️ Oil pan is split like a sardine can and after two hits with the hammer "looks great man!" With a BIG ole smile‼️ Hahaha Brent's the best!!!
Brent has hung out with boosted boiz a bit so I suspect he's seen jankier shit on civics🤣 Love boosted boiz just typical Honda owners
czcams.com/video/ER2Z0ffFQxcu/video.html4u4
Brent for president 2022
Brent should explain why he blames Trump for his epa problem
@@Blurplemk4tdi you do realize he blames trump for his epa problem …… right?
James: Smooth, stable RPM keeps her happy.
After dealing with 50K+ hour generator engines, I'd say he's right.
Why did I just realize James ran two mid-7 second passes with a car that has a JB-welded oil pan?
Coolant tanks, radiator, corroded water jacket on a cylinder head...jb weld has fixed them all it really is great.
"when we get there we'll change the oil in Ruby" Next scene, all Ruby's oil is on the ground!
🤣🤣🤣 well they changed it.
ruby just wanted her oil changed early
That’s exactly what I thought
lol welp yea that escalated quickly. Solved itself at least! Ruby was like stand aside I got this.
@@SomeConch357 My oh my, someone's eager for an oil change. I guess Ruby just wants to be prepared to keep dipping into those 7s XD
Cleeter-“we may be in over our head”
Brent- *maniacal laughter* “yeah”
LMAO
@@Jesus_christ333 I'm pretty sure they were calling your name during that 8 hour thrash. Any chance your dad has some free time to ride along with the boys and give them a little help?
His laugh reminds me of the Joker lol
Would it of been faster to just pull the engine??
@@patrickr2686 I don’t think they could have. Pretty sure they didn’t have a hoist, and you can’t borrow one from somebody if they have one.
The amount of work that you guys get done on the road amazes me. Does anyone know the attrition rate on these races? How many start vs how many finish?
It depends on the conditions… a really HOT week will suck the life out of a lot of race (street lol) cars, especially your N/A, high compression, high lift motors… the low compression boosted crowd seems to fare much better. I was watching Hot Rod Drag Week coverage and halfway through the week there was almost 50 out… but that event draws a much bigger crowd.
Fast, cheap, reliable. Choose 2. And they’re not even going that cheap.
@@Christopher_R more like, fast, reliable, choose one lol
Not even close to the amount of work Finnegan did to Blasphemi during drag week.
I'm 100% sure they keep track
George “in Oklahoma they say if you don’t change your oil we will” had me dying😂
8hrs doing that on the ground, especially that low, with hand tools is getting it done son. Mad props to you guys for tackling that job, good luck
czcams.com/video/ER2Z0ffFQxci/video.html4i4
I thought the same thing. Working on the ground with basic hand tools is a nightmare
I just had to change my alternator out in my driveway in the shade with hand tools and I just about cried 4 times.. maybe 5.
@Freedom Freedom yea ok
Yeah he said “five hours were good” I said out loud “yeah right” lol but they killed it
Swapping out a clutch in a parking lot on raceweek on Jack stands....thats some freaking dedication Cleet! Mad respect. The things you do to keep us entertained!
Pretty sure he does it because he enjoys it.
czcams.com/video/ER2Z0ffFQxcj/video.html4u4
@@-MOYST- I can tell you he doesn’t enjoy it in the moment
They've done it many time before, but yeah, lots of work.
@@CANDY-in9js your channel is gonna get deactivated for posting pornographic links.
"We've almost got her back together."
*transmission on the ground next to the car*
Can’t have race week without Leroy-the cardboard roof, no visibility, the challenge of stick shift class..
Safety tip: if you have multiple race vehicles, you should really standardize the locations and types of safety equipment. Last thing you want is to be 'in the moment' and be flailing around looking for a chute handle or disconnect, as we saw James do in Ruby on his last pass. Probably worth sending them over to KSR and having them update the fleet now that there are four regular drag cars in the stable.
caught this too: completely agree
wow good eye, it just makes sense. Its not even insulting to say that, its safety...
Hopefully they see this, that is an amazing point. When you go 175+ in 7-8 seconds it is better to have the muscle memory of where to reach for the chute than to rely on being able to find it in time if things go south.
Gay
@@Pockgt good for you, man. Most people are too shy to admit their homosexuality 👍
That dirty, exhausted 1:00AM face brings back memories of trying to make the run-offs. Good luck gentlemen. Also, reason number #452 that Ruby and Leroy need dry sumps.
I thought they decided on adding that after the last race week. I totally agree.
Dry sump the world
Reminds me of growing up at the drag strip watching my dad tune his friends alcohol drag bikes! We’d leave around 2:30-3 am most times haha. An addiction like that can never be broken, racing is part of my blood lol
That look when Cleetus realized something still wasn't right after spending all day turning wrenches. Felt that look in my soul. Best of luck guys. Hopefully it's something minor!
Even though he didn't say it (and probably doesn't), I could still hear that frustrated mumble of "god...dammit".
This reminded me that Cleetus really works hard. From the driving and wrenching during race week, clutch job on a corvette twice in two days, to the late night editing, and he’s running a legit business with big events. I really wish him continued success.
"If you don't change your oil, we will!" That's got me dead. PLEASE make an Oklahoma shirt with that quote on the back and an OK cleeter logo on the front!!
... I'm from Alaska, and I'd wear that OK shirt. lmao
From somebody that lives in Oklahoma, We Need That Shirt!
Cleet: “We need to do an oil change before the next race”
Ruby: "Hold my Dew"
Brutal day guys but thanks as always for the EPIC entertainment. Fingers crossed for you guys and Leroy.
Oklahoma, if you don’t change your oil, we will.
@@erikj.2066 Loved that! George has been such a great add to the team :D
I was laughing so loud when he said that... 😅
George and Brent are 2 people that are just pure happy go lucky buggers ...love it
There's something about pulling your shit box apart in crap conditions, then the feeling of driving it again after you replace parts, getting shit done in a short time by just plugging away and staying focused that just gets in your DNA and stays there. Best feeling ever.
I love that I just got an ad with Brent talking about the RPM bill and what he’s been struggling with lately. He’s a great man and doesn’t deserve what’s been happening.
100% i watched that vid with PRI and it was gut wrenching cause hes normally so animated and happy go lucky and for the EPA to go hard at someone who imho epitimises what motor racing is all about. Hope the EPA is happy with themselves
I agree Conner. Brent, the team and everyone else going through this nonsense with the EPA doesn't deserve being treated like that. They are human beings trying to make a living for themselves and family.
@@gotdangedcommiesitellyahwa6298 every three letter agency is unconstitutional and needs to be disbanded. Literally who put these people in charge of anything, and under what authority do they have to ask, let alone demand money from people? It's getting well past time to put some of our other constitutional amendments into play and sort this mess out once and for all.
@@kleetus92 Wouldn't that be a dream? Trying to wake people up before it's too late is no easy task...it's almost like they want to be persecuted.
Stop voting dumb folks in
Brent will never complain about it, but you know homeboy is saying "wish this was a freaking honda" while pulling the trans on Leroy haha.
100% This. Woulda been in done in like 20 min max.
@@jay_wright yeah they don't got the torque, but that top end doe..
F body same he picked the vettes but they could have done this quickly in any other car
22:25, every dude has had that moment at the track, gave me chills just seeing that
19:04. Dude left before jack stand and got passed like he was sittin still. I love slowing this stuff to half speed and watching the cockpit view
George gets so much praise from the comments, and it is so well deserved. Brings a whole new dynamic to the show and it works so well
H George is a great mechanic but is a bit of a dork.
@@DragsterJeffCrider Have you looked at who he's running around with? James is the only one that's not a complete dork, but even then.
Dude, think about how cleetus even came in to being....
The way cleet's eyes lit up when George said it's the crown vic or clutches 😂😂
"This is the crown vic of clutches"
"That's a clean way to put it georgey" 👌
Never missed an episode and this one's up there. James just being James and so much respect for Brent and Cleetus to power through that. Not an easy job on a lift let alone jack stands.
George “…so this is the crown vic of clutches…”.
Cleet: “…😳😉😏” looking instantly like “man you routinely make me glad I hired you.”
This!!!
Classic.... Cleeter: "We're in a little over our head" Brents reply priceless: crazed smile, frantic nodding "yeah!" You guys F*ing ROCK!!
I want Brent to be my fuckin life coach lol
Lol that was great
Literally so glad George is with the team now. He fits perfect and I couldn’t imagine the channel without him
Last night, I did some transmission work on the project car, was working on it til 10 pm. Meanwhile, Cleetus was working on Leroy in the middle of a parking lot til 1:45 am. MAD RESPECT.
As soon as Cleetus said "We've never made time like this before." I said I guarantee they break down.
it was the video title for me lol
Also, "We should change the oil before the next track."
Absolutely he jinxed himself as soon as he said that
Georges' character totally makes up for whoever is lacking in the character dept! awesome dude and an awesome addition to the whole Cleetus team!
Who’s lacking? I don’t think anyone is since Turtle boy left.
Buenos dias
George always makes me smile, great attitude.
@@joshallen7169 turtle boy?
@@AntonioRodriguez-yp2rw exactly… turtle boy who? I forgot all about cooper 😂
Man what a bunch of hurtles, I really love how Cleetus involves Brent from PFI speed. Warms my heart. Much love guys
🇺🇸 That’s a hard core American racer! Doing everything himself and not stopping until it’s done. George and James backing him up all the way through. Hell Yeah Brother!
Not allowed to have any help, if he & Brent didnt do it themselves he'd be DQ.
@@mycosys thanks for clarifying 👍🏻😃
@@chaseboen2448 that's why George became James co pilot instead of bogetti.
Just so everyone knows cleet made a post on Facebook saying they forgot a clutch weight so they had to pull the clutch again this morning now there back on the road 💪🤘*my fault I re read his post and it was a shim they lost during install not a weight*
" THEY FORGOT A CLUTCH WEIGHT " CLEET. put the clutch together. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE UPDATE, I'M NOT A FACEBOOK USER, THANKS AGAIN, SIR.
Did they use a shop and lift or do it on the ground again?
@@mckrackin5324 he has a hole under the car where he can put weights on the clutch
You don't have to pull the clutch to change a weight.
My fault just re read his post they lost a shim Last night during install
This is the kind of stuff you remember for a lifetime. Makes me look back and smile at some of my "dare to be great" situations.
I was thrown from a truck on the highway in Florida, and just thought to myself, you guys and gals in drag week are driving the safest vehicles on the roads. God bless! Keep doing it for dale!
James I like the “want this rock for your clutch” trying to rub some grubbworm tricks off on Leroy!
Cleetus: “We need to do an oil change before the next race”
Pot Hole: “We got ya bro”
As much as that must have sucked it was still a smart move to turn that slip in and grind out the rest of the day changing that clutch. Goes to show even with a dailed setup like Leroy race week is pretty dang challenging.
The only problem is he didn't turn the slip in, not until the lanes closed anyway. They were hoping to make another rip. He should have turned the slip in right away, then he could have used the portable lift guy or drove to a proper shop to do it.
It's so great to see George smiling out there and having a good time. He's definitely brought a good amount of content of his to the channel and made a great one even better!
Cleetus's determination should be commended, just laughs through the stress. love that
James said "you want this rock for your clutch" 😂
🪨
This is my pebble I call him rocky.
Those disgusting holiday inn breakfasts are giving me bad flashbacks of near failed sprints to rest stop crappers. And I’m no sprinter.
I started toting around food I know I can eat and not die because of those situations.
@5:26 The Steve Irwin impersonation had me in fits of laughter, I love it! R.I.P. to the Legend himself!!!
I literally need a Brent in my life. These videos, you guys, and all yall love with everything you do honestly help me so much. Keep rippin!!
I’m from England so this is around 8pm, my son loves watching cars before he falls asleep. Perfect timing! Wish you all the best. Buenos Noches
Me too Ben !
Scotland but the same just finished a 15h shift and get this little pop up... cold Stella watching it
*buenas
@@StanleyKubick1 Hasta your legover!
This is what ya have to love about old Cleet, the damn dedication and the crew he runs with is absolutely great. Brent, George and Jack’s Stand are all so supportive of each other it’s just how you should be with your circle of real friends.
Good luck on taking your #1 spot back and I think old Jack Stand might have enough with Ruby to get to #1 himself.
George is absolutely killin it with the camera! His energy and banter is awesome. Once he gets even more time he will be the greatest of all time.
I look forward to Race Week every year. You guys never disappoint. Leroy Cleet and Brent, Ruby James and George. Don’t ever change that.
I was literally sitting here waiting for this video best way to get the day started
Where you live that your day just started. I just got done working for the day.
You never going to accomplish anything if you're just getting your day startedEspecially starting your day with CZcams
@@al1087 Night shift gang 🤘
Here in South Africa, I'm about to go sleep. So I'm happy I could end my day with this video.
@@illuminatikiller1 ehh I usually watch a CZcams video while I cook and eat breakfast at 430 am. Then feed the animals and then get to work. So not true
"Set it to just a chill 8.50" lol I remember when getting a 8 was massive for you guys, you have come a long way
George is my hero. Just always out here laughing and living his best life!
George is my spirit animal
George is the best. His laugh is very contagious. Great choice hiring george.
"This is the Crown Vic of Clutches"

George eating his breakfast looks like the happiest kid alive 🤣😂
What was he eating?
@@300zxdriver I thought it was biscuits and gravy at first but it almost looks like a breakfast sandwhich smothered in gravy lol
@@schmitty69 Pretty sure he just grabbed one of everything from the breakfast buffet threw it in a bowl then covered it with gravy. Which btw is a delicious combo
Matt Corn yes! I work on the road and usually never have time to sit down and eat, so I’ll just throw a couple biscuits in a bowl, smother it with sausage gravy and top it with a couple of their not so dee-licious nasty ass fried eggs. By the time I get to the job, the 5,000 degree gravy has cooled enough to inhale.
Hats off to you Cleet & the crew. Bringing us these videos with the pressure of race week and tryin to get Leroy right. So much commitment. I for one appreciate and love your work. Much love from Oz! 👌👌👍
15:06 “I’m an idiot “. 😂Lmao. You got this brother !!!!
Cleet: “might have to get the whole clutch changed”
George: “wooooohooooo FIRE ME UP”
Me: *falls to the floor crying with laughter*
False motivation wins wars man.
@@replynotificationsdisabled well if cleet didn't take his sweet time putting that clutch back in
Leroy in the pits whilst Ruby is tearing up the track xD Damn that 7.6 was one helluva launch!
We all have our place in this world..
George's place happens to be the fun factory.
Poor leroy getting new everything thrown on him and having to go rip straight away... What a unit
George's reaction when James says that's where she likes it was priceless!!
George's camera skills are on point too! 🇺🇸🏁
Man I tell you what, the content on this channel is pure damn amazing!!!!! To hear George say “this is the crown Vic of clutches” at 17:23 was the best thing I’ve heard all week. That clutch and RPM trans has made Leroy the savage one hell of a monster!!!
Thank you Cleetus and Brent, for trying your damndest to get Leroy to the next track for the W, and make great content in the process! Grateful for quality entertainment!
The music is soooooo great during the time lapse. Having George is equally as good
Lotta respect for Cleet doing that job in a parking lot.
I think they did it twice. They forgot a clutch weight and had to pull the clutch again. They're back on the road now. I don't know if they found a shop or changed it in a parking lot but I know they pulled it again and got it fixed.
@@mckrackin5324 thanks for the spoiler alert
@@Nebbia_affaraccimiei He posted it himself. And I was wrong anyway. I think they were able to fix it with it in the car.
@@Nebbia_affaraccimiei Well, I was wrong about being wrong. Trans definitely came out twice. lol
You guys are resourceful AF when something breaks like that.. normal people need to wait for a wrecker, but you guys are back at it like nothing.. respect!
That’s what car guys do and you carry backups and tools just for that. I changed my alternator on the side of I-40 a few weeks ago, really nice to avoid $1k+ in fees and repairs.
czcams.com/video/ER2Z0ffFQxcj/video.html4i4
They have a fully equipped trailer with tools for repair. Most people don’t have their whole garage in tow when they break down.
@@Hitycooking your 5th reply reported for spam!
George is an absolute amazing addition to the crew. a perfect fit
“Brutal project” biggest understatement of the week! Keep grinding👊
Jackstand Jimmy and JB weld George.
Name a better combo.
Absolute legends. Leroy is the OG. The greatest. Something like Ali in his prime. He will bounce back. I promise.
Would it of been faster to just pull the engine??
@@patrickr2686 They are only allowed the tools they carry with themselves, easier to pull the rear with no engine hoist
Either that or Leroy gets Parkinson's?
Mad respect to Cleet for his mechanical ability as a tuber! He’s learned so much over the years and even though he’s got an awesome crew assembled, he still holds his own.
He does doesn't he. All the fame this Nebraska boy has and he's unfettered, he digs in, wants no quarter shown, does his part PLUS all the video edits, dealing with a huge throng of fans and always is smiling, no swearing, a handshake (usually with greasy hands) for his people and lov'n the world he owns today.
Cleet when he is annoyed and gets sarcastic is my absolute favorite…
22:26 the next few seconds if you know you know... the thoughts going through this man's head ... hope you get it figured out Cleet! Hope you got some rest... you have the best co-pilot anyone could ask for... Brent is a positivity creating machine! Good luck boys! Looking forward to tomorrows upload
oh man. I've been down this road, and the face he did, I could soooo relate.
Wow! SO bummed that Leroy is having all these issues! Still my FAVE in the stable! George was a TERRIFIC choice for color man! A definite asset! Best of luck throughout the week!
You and Brent will get it figured out, with his positivity and your ingenuity anything is possible brother.
"Victory is all the better when the battle is hard won". Don't give up, y'all got this.
I dont know about anyone else, but I'd get hell frustrated if there was a wall of zombies surrounding me everytime I got too a track and had to work on the cars.
6 figures a month from youtube….small “price” to pay.
You would get used to it though. Hes been doing this for 3+ years so he is well used to people watching
@@ianrs6310 And just as much a month in overhead... I Don't think you quite understand how his business model works.
That wall didn't develop overnight either, hes also clearly an extrovert who thrives on having others around.
Adding George to the team was such a good decision. Love the dude. He’s loosening up still.
One hell of a video an one hell of a day for these guys! Very proud! All the Heart soul grit and determination! Best race week video yet!!
You are one insanely determined dude! The dedication and glass-half-full personality is super inspiring! Sorry for our awful Oklahoma roads, they just don't seem to fix what needs to be fixed because they are too busy slowly fixing what didn't need to be fixed. Keep on powering through and best of luck!
Jesus, I thought swapping my exhaust was a pain in the ass on rhino ramps, the commitment you and Brent have is unparalleled. No matter what you can't give more effort than this team across the board. Absolute legends 🤙
Well said sir... 🤙
Reminds me of a time we were out hunting, a rock put a HOLE in the oilpan of my brothers car(Yes car, we are Canadian, hunt in anything that will run)We heard it happen and got out and put a pan under it right away for we had no spare oil. So middle of the bush miles upon miles fron no where and Thanksgiving dinner was cooking(Couldnt be late for dinner, I was a heavy weight wrestler, and still afraid of mom being upset if we are late). Do now what to plug the hole with? Putty, my bro had a piece of Plexiglas for a rear side window sealed with putty. Well it vot unsealed quickly. Plugged the hole, poured to oil in and kept the revs up to keep as much oil (of what was left)out if the pan as possible. Made it home in time for dinner. As soon as we parked and turned ignition off, the putty fell out of the hole and the oil followed all over the driveway. "Hell Ya Brother" was that a close one.
Sounds like an VINWIKI story
Absolutely the truth
Thanks for more spectacular content. Went from an adventure docu to a drama docu and a race against time. The race week can go from high to low real quick, nonetheless thank you for the content, it's awesome.
You can't have highs without the lows. All part of the adventure.
I can see that happening in Oklahoma. The interstate’s are terrible. It’s killing George that he can’t help with the clutch.
George’s laugh gets me going every time. What a great guy to have on the team to keep the moral up!
Hey ya'll, props to Brent too. He's hang'n in with his buddy Garrett do'n what needs be done. That clutch R&R was brutal.
I love that in the face of adversity you are all so positive and having a laugh and a good time
When George was eating his biscuits and gravy, I thought he was putting on an act for the camera. Then I saw he noticed the camera and started laughing, what a great guy. He is who he is cuz he can be
Your backfire on Ruby is the crack in the exhaust, letting oxygen in and igniting the fuel/exhaust. Jb weld crack no more backfire
Normal JB Weld will not hold above 500° for very long so JB Weld on exhaust especially on that application don’t work so well
@@ralan350 I'd bet it would hold for 7.59 seconds or so....maybe... 🤣
You boys are an absolute beast!!! Can’t wait for my shirts and the New Truck :)
Man I absolutely LOVE how you guys just keep your cool and keep at it despite a very tough frustrating day.
