    Please note NHRA: Videos like this help promote the class. The more you know, the greater the interest. I have a suggestion. Have the cars back into the pits, so the fans can see the engine being worked on. Some of us like the mechanical part of the sport more than the actual race. Thanks for the video Total Seal team, and especially Mr. Hartford.

    Matt, is calm, patient, and encouraging, a sign of a great teacher. I learned enough for a couple of days. All I can same is, make more videos.

    Matt is just a Super Guy!!! Combine that with Joe's enthusiasm... NHRA needs more of this! I am a long-time racer since the early 1960s. Been in Comp, off and on since the 80's. Matt has the heart of a teacher... patient, calm, understanding and a passion! And he is right here in our town... Phoenix, The Valley of Sun... and Matt really shines! And we are customers of Total Seal since forever! Great work Matt Hartford... and Joe!!! (Joe is from my home state of Florida)👍👍

    Tons of respect to Matt Hartford. I have never seen a team take the time to put school in session, especially on the Liberty trans. I have one for the N/A 10.5 car, with Prusiensky Hemi power, I am building for the 2021 season. Was worried about getting in to the thing, but you have given me some insight and a starting point. Thank you. If the NHRA makes to Pomona, I will see you run there. Thank you again.
    Lets a starting point of weights and a basic kit for the clutch, that a new team should have.

    I love hearing what Matt said (inline w/ what Joe was talking about) and I'm paraphrasing a bit; "Everyday you can learn something from somebody, because everyone has some sort of knowledge that you don't have" that is something I have always lived by and share with people, super awesome to hear!! Mega respect to you guys.. super insightful... I just felt I needed to add that to the comments :)

    This video is AWESOME!! :) Thank you so much, Matt and Joe! Automotive engineering is fascinating, yet much of it (especially in NHRA drag racing) can be a mystery. Thank you for the informative tech session - really enjoyed and learned a lot from it! Looking forward to watching more videos! :)

    This was amazing! Think about this: A wheelie bar adjustment can affect an ET. A gear change can affect ET. A thousand little things can. I just saw the entire Pro Stock field at the 2024 Gatornationals was within 43 thousandths of a second.

    I would love to see you guys assemble an entire pressure plate..it could just be that...or go on to installing the pack and zeroing it out, etc. as well. That might be tricky to not show the weight you're using or the amount of base..but an entire pressure plate assembly would be really cool!

    This is what ya will never get from guy's going "LEFT" sorry nascar not libtards.. i digress this is whats awsome about 1/4 mile guys they are not keeping the most important part of the racing hid. The car is the as important as the driver and other motor sports i feel forget that and thank you for showing us just what makes it go and go fast ...keep educating us thank you....!!!!!

    • @ccraig4247
      @ccraig4247 5 років тому +1

      George Beeson I agree completely. But nascar fans are mostly a different demographic. The typical nascar fans may like cars, but most don’t work their own cars like NHRA fans do. It’s not my opinion, that’s coming from research data paid for by advertisers. Nascar fans are more in line with NFL fans, than NHRA.
