I haven't disliked any of these build biology videos since they've started, but this might be the best. To bring in a type of car that only a very limited number of people know anything about, then literally tear it to pieces in the lot and have it explained from nose to tail, this may have been the most informative video yet. Love seeing you guys step out of your normal zone of vehicle knowledge.
Andrew Bear agreed, it is. already in process of building. but its only takes some steel and some time to weld a frame. the design and engine is proven. tire blow out will be prevented. He's gonna do it
You ask about any single part on this car, and one - only one - of these guys will speak, and he will tell everything there is to know about that specific part. The other two will shut up until it's their turn to share incredible knowledge about their craft. No room for BS here, just complete understanding of what's going on with every mm of the car and engine. A team doesn't get much better than this.
I've known steve and those who work for em since I was knee high to a cricket. They are absolutely some of the most knowledgeable people I've every met and damn fine people on top of it.
Props to these older generation guys to share this amazing machine and knowlege with younger folks, that alone is admirable. Plus this "thing" is just mental
Yep. I amazed they showed to much. I figured it would be all "secret salt flat racing" shit. But they stripped her down an let us see it. Amazing build. ANd as you said. these cats have been around longer, they know more. Time to shut up an listen when they speak.
@@DrMurdercock They are a fantastic team. Good group of guys, and they are always willing to help out other teams out on the salt. There are so many different classes at Bonneville, nobody is really direct competition. The only real competitors they have are for the Hot Rod trophy, which is the fastest car overall for the week, which is usually between Speed Demon, Danny Thompson's Challenger II (now retired), and the jet powered Turbinator.
100% my fave ever build biology. I didn't expect to be that in to it, but the build, and how full of clever ideas it is, is incredible. Once they take the bodywork off it's a car like any other, just done so SO well. Love it.
honestly same. i was thinking.. eh not really into this type of car.... but the engineering behind it and how they used such clever ideas to make everything work so perfectly was awesome. brad asked some really good questions too. best one yet
Same. Its like one of those movie ideas where you are like "How the hell are they going to capture my attention for 2 hours with this plot", and then you have a new outlook on life as you are leaving the theater.
To add to the comments, one thing this land speed car displays (personally) is that there's a point where no matter your personal tastes, if something is so impressively good you can't NOT enjoy and appreciate it. No matter who the person is or what their personality might be, I think if you brought this thing in front of them and had their team just talk and answer questions about it, they would be a fan within minutes. This "car" truly is a testament to art and engineering being synonymous.
@@Sube-Tube gotta agree with ivana, Subaru is the only brand I can't stand. Although, that has to do with head gaskets and the fact that Colorado has too many.

I could listen to Dan mind barf about engineering for hours. Dude is naturally gifted and has such a genuine interest in this stuff. He also clearly enthuses any guest you guys have, it’s so cool to watch people discuss something like this with such detail.
TheHoonigans Please never stop making these. I don't know of anyone else who can pair scumbaggery with actual engineering and mechanical expertise quite like you folks.
Several years ago Duttweiler said that "It's very unnerving when the engine spins the tires at 400+mph! LOL Said his "little" engines are almost as fast as the big engines because the big engine torque spins the tires at speed.
@@atypical_moto that's not true at all Studies have shown that on an average people's IQ can either increase about 15% with working on it or decrease about 15% by not doing anything useful for your brain. I would say these days the majority of the US is probably leaning more toward the latter.
I love the gearbox shifter best, it works the same way as the 3 speed in my homemade dragbike except I only have 3 speeds and mine is air pressure not co2 (I was toying with using nitrous to save a cylinder though) and I pull rods through the centre of the cluster which the gears connect to internally rather than using forks, but ramps on the gear throws out the previous gear against air pressure, which means you can shift without letting off the throttle, and it also means if you back out of the throttle to save a run, the gearbox doesnt take a shit as the ramps override the shift pressure and save it from locking up when you back out. That is a truly awesome build and they are cool guys for letting you see under the hoods at how it hangs together.
@@jnieto490 no not really, before hoonigan I pretty much lived under a rock... Still kinda do but everyday at 12:00 I peek out and watch hoonigan, maybe leave a comment if it's really worth it.
Easily the most interesting build biology video yet! There’s so much more about the car that I want to know about now. How do the tires not balloon at that wheel speed. How do the keep fuel/oil from not getting pushed to the back. What does the steering system look like. I need more info!!!! Such an awesome video, dan always seems to ask all the right questions, he killed it!
I'm pretty sure most salt flat guys use air plane tires that you'd see like on a commercial jet...where as the speed increases, they get skinnier and stiffer and don't have a "balloon-like" sidewall. don't quote me on that though...
In the old days they would run solid wheels, then they switched to aircraft tires and like this team runs the LSR tires. Technology has caught up to be able to make a tire that can handle those speeds. You also have to realize that salt is not like asphalt so the durability isn’t as intense on the tread. It is all more in the construction and sidewall strength. With regards to the fluids, they are using massive pumps to push forward and keeping the fluid flowing helps mitigate the g loads pushing it back. It also helps that they aren’t accelerating like a top fuel car.
so just some rough math, youre telling me with this car i can theoretically eat chicken and waffles for breakfast in georgia then drive full speed and catch lunch at in n out in cali.
only problem with that logic is that it always took chevy and dodge a whole litter larger just to match fords 5.0 so yeah no I would still rather the coyote
They are knocking hard on the 500mph door this season. Wondered about the setup and found this vid, nice and simple and what a helpful group of madmen.
What a great bunch of guys being so willing and excited to go into detail with what they've done. Beautiful fabrication, machining and engine building. Very very cool video. Thanks for that.
I enjoyed this far more than I thought I would. I've always known there's a lot of engineering that goes into land speed cars, but I've never really thought about just how much stuff there is on one that you won't find on any other type of car. Next you guys need to get Underground Racing's half-mile record holding Huracan. I want to say it was like 276 or 278 in the standing half mile. 460 mph in five miles is impressive, but almost 280 in a half mile in a street legal (kinda) car is just stupid.
I know their demo car/test mule ran 259 at one point, but i could have sworn I remember seeing one where it ran over 270 and was pushing like 2000 bhp. I might be getting it confused with one of their standing mile runs because I know that Huracan of theirs is a record holder, but I also know the current standing mile record is like 293 or somewhere around there.
There needs to be a Hoonigans Bonus bonus channel, they could call it Garage-Garage garage or something where it is just ALL the footage for people like me left wanting more. They could have spent 60 minutes on this and I would still have to watch it a few times to soak it all in. Thanks for the amazing content !! There is nothing else like this
i really wish i could pick Kenny Duttweiler's brain about turbo engines; the man is insanely knowledgeable in the realm of turbos and how to make the most reliable engine under supreme power!
Wow, I almost didn't watch this video because this type of thing doesn't really interest me. I was wrong. Super cool build and a very interesting vehicle! Thank you guys for bringing the oddball stuff.
I love that they actually answered every question you asked. A lot of teams for any Motorsport answer every question with "oh we can't tell you that." It made the video way more interesting and gave us all a lot more knowledge on this type of car.
It's nice to see builders who have taken failures and used them to improve what they're doing for next time. We've definitely seen a lot of people who have refined their cars that way on here in the last year or two, but I think the ability to calmly say "We've noticed that our engine fires usually stay down the bottom" and then reworked other systems and even used the failure point of the coolant tanks to help control fires means these guys take the cake. Really interesting video.
Guys please invest in a simple small gimbal for your handheld cameras.. great content but always shaky.. and could be easily fixed my only issue with this channel..
Just a marvel. What a work of artenering! Thank you all for sharing. Down to earth genius.. Way cool. Thoughtful and intelligent presentation. Ty also!
@@brucedressel8873 it isn't fanboy mentality. The LS engine is the cheapest source of *reliable* horsepower, if you can't handle that reality, you can cry yourself a puddle. It is what it is, and it's a beast.
Wow. Breathtaking. It was really awesome getting to see it run. Everything you guys said was absolutely proven with video evidence. Truly amazing engineering.
I honestly expected this to be kind of a boring video, not normal hoonigan burnout stuff, but the educational side it it was so cool! Keep these coming!
he said 460mph .... sounds me like that a call out to the hyper car manufactures can they build a production car to set a new land speed record ? and do it at Bonneville?
TheHoonigans two sided coin. no i wouldnt but odds are the few who buy a machine like that would probably never break 300mph..!!. on the other hand the ability to do such speed and then goto the grocery store to pick up diapers. would be insanity to own.
Short answer, no. Production cars end up having a much larger frontal surface area so they have to overcome a lot more drag. As far as I am aware the current limiting factor on the production car speed record is tires.
It's impossible to get even close to a land speed car in a street legal DOT compliant vehicle. The main limiting factor is the limited aerodynamics of a street legal car. Notice how long and narrow the land speed car is.
Beautiful design, workmanship, aesthetics, and the shape. I love the shots that show it isn't just a big bullet, it actually has some trick aero to make it want to be stable, super cool.
Unless they wanna pull the car apart or rebuild the hoonigan warehouse and do the demo in a fast manner I don't see them doing man line any time in the near future
I love how simple they can verbalize the workarounds they use for their problems. That’s awesome. “We had a pressure problem last year so we just put a breather that’s set at 35psi” wow
I don't know that you could do anything with it. It is designed to go straight for about 8 miles. It can't turn, it is designed to go fast in a straight line, and that is it.
This was fabulous, as a speed enthusiast for 60 years, I am continually amazed at how far we have come since Graig Breedlove. The level of sophistication is fantastic, and I for one like to know the nuts and bolts...thx guys...
Good god man! The amount of specific knowledge and experience in that team... Jesus. So many ingenious little bits incorporated in that machine, and the build quality looks so spectacular. Just mind blowing.
So I wanted to do an engine swap... Put in an LS Yeah but I wanna be able to go... Put in an LS Yeah but I wanna beat the L.... Put in an LS Ok, but I want to go 460 miles per ho... Put in an LS FINE! #($&#)&)!@# you, I wanna do a diesel swap! Put in an...wait what?

Just a marvel. What a work of artenering! Thank you all for sharing. Down to earth genius.. Way cool. Thoughtful and intelligent presentation. Ty also!
By far the most interesting thing that I have seen in this channel (and everything before this has been pretty cool). Well done Hoonigans!
No burnout from the V8 airplane?? Disappointed
Well theyd need to fit a ehole different gear set
Lmaooo
GrexTheCrabasitor Nah just give it a line lock and let it rip
Lmao I’m not sure they make brake calibers strong enough to stop this bad boy from luanching off as soon as u push the throttle
I need that engine in my work truck. It would have to have a conservative street tune. Bump it down to about 2000-2100, that should do it.
Yet more proof that the LS is the greatest engine ever designed, whether it's a bone stock low output truck motor or a 100% custom built version.
Fan boy mentality instead of appreciating everything for what it is ...
@@brucedressel8873 it isn't fanboy mentality. The LS engine is the cheapest source of *reliable* horsepower, if you can't handle that reality, you can cry yourself a puddle. It is what it is, and it's a beast.
Wow. Breathtaking. It was really awesome getting to see it run. Everything you guys said was absolutely proven with video evidence. Truly amazing engineering.
Thank you for putting this together. So amazing!!!!
This was unexpected
Expect the unexpected.
"Will it fit in my honda."
Dance Around The World will it fit in my P50
@@posilly8564 lengthen the peel a bit
Dance Around The World technically yes
Will it fit on mountain bike?
Need to do a build biology on a f1 car
Does Ken still has the hook up on Monster? I kinda want to see the dominant V6 Mercs on the yard lol.
@@_Erogaki Monster doesn't have that kinda power
The would never do it though. Too much secret sauce in F1
@@fulcrum2168 monster has Hamilton. Soooo I think I got a point for me lmao
This has got to be the cleanest, most organized build ever!
I honestly expected this to be kind of a boring video, not normal hoonigan burnout stuff, but the educational side it it was so cool! Keep these coming!
That things crazy! 🚀
he said 460mph .... sounds me like that a call out to the hyper car manufactures can they build a production car to set a new land speed record ? and do it at Bonneville?
TheHoonigans two sided coin. no i wouldnt but odds are the few who buy a machine like that would probably never break 300mph..!!. on the other hand the ability to do such speed and then goto the grocery store to pick up diapers. would be insanity to own.
Short answer, no. Production cars end up having a much larger frontal surface area so they have to overcome a lot more drag. As far as I am aware the current limiting factor on the production car speed record is tires.
That's like asking Porsche to make a production car faster around a track than their actual race cars 😕
It's impossible to get even close to a land speed car in a street legal DOT compliant vehicle. The main limiting factor is the limited aerodynamics of a street legal car. Notice how long and narrow the land speed car is.
Dan the "ROCKET MAN"
This is the most technical build ever on the show❤👍
Beautiful design, workmanship, aesthetics, and the shape. I love the shots that show it isn't just a big bullet, it actually has some trick aero to make it want to be stable, super cool.
Gtr fanboys be like ”bUt cAn iT cOrNeR?”
Kaisuhina those autistic goobers
Corners better than a Mustang at a car meet
@@bmg2k12 that depends on where the pedestrians are at the car meet.
@@execration_texts Holy shit
Good lawd
That’s a NASA quality build 💖🇺🇸
Who's ready to launch in to space?!
Do... do man line in it
Unless they wanna pull the car apart or rebuild the hoonigan warehouse and do the demo in a fast manner I don't see them doing man line any time in the near future
I love how simple they can verbalize the workarounds they use for their problems. That’s awesome. “We had a pressure problem last year so we just put a breather that’s set at 35psi” wow
Level of skill, thought and engineering on these land speed cars is mind numbing, great video.
What no 2600HP burnouts? Lame...
Serious tho, that thing is nuckin' futs.
Nuckin' futs. Lol
Hoonigan never disappoints with their choice of music
My girl: "Just got out of shower, hurry over"
Me: *Jumps in the streamliner*
Absolutely amazing example of engineering at its best. So rad.
Only add on to this shoot is actually firing up that complete beast and hearing the melody!
Duttweiler was the Buick grand national god back in the day
Somebody show Cleetus
oh yeah..mr texas know nothing...
Too many bald eagles
This is a little out of Cleetus' area, but I've often thought I'd like to see Ruby do a land speed run just to see what she could do.
They should put this car in Forza
Conner Quintero ehh..... it would be too OP. If it was to be used strictly in a business/storyline it might work.
More like Gran Turismo
@@gamingden444 imagine taking this onto route x
I don't know that you could do anything with it. It is designed to go straight for about 8 miles. It can't turn, it is designed to go fast in a straight line, and that is it.
v12tommy but it would be an amazing drag car with some drag grip tires and a bit of tuning
This was fabulous, as a speed enthusiast for 60 years, I am continually amazed at how far we have come since Graig Breedlove. The level of sophistication is fantastic, and I for one like to know the nuts and bolts...thx guys...
Good god man! The amount of specific knowledge and experience in that team... Jesus. So many ingenious little bits incorporated in that machine, and the build quality looks so spectacular. Just mind blowing.
So I wanted to do an engine swap...
Put in an LS
Yeah but I wanna be able to go...
Put in an LS
Yeah but I wanna beat the L....

Ok, but I want to go 460 miles per ho...
Put in an LS
FINE! #($&#)&)!@# you, I wanna do a diesel swap!
Put in an...wait what?
PUT AN LS WITH DIESEL OIL.
Supprised no Cummins fanboys chiming in with a 6 in a row ready to tow or whatever the fuck they say
All hail the mighty GM LS engines!!
whoever does the music over at hoonigan always finds bangers
There’s things like this out there and yet there’s people that still aren’t into cars. Blows my mind
I saw the Speed Demon go by me at over 450 at Bonneville. Seeing the insides is just as impressive. Excellent video!
