Glad to see it wasn’t anything major! I’m really liking those Birds Eye clips of the guys working on the engine it’s amazing what those guys do in such little time 💪
Honestly Clay you took a sport that not a lot of people were interested in cause of the lack of info etc but the fact that you're showing and motivating others and helping the sport it self it's definitely a winning for you and your team
10000% agree with this
@@nitrochaney1026Being officially ancient, I came up in a time you did n't tell people you were a drag racer.
Girlfriend's fathers didn't think much of you, neighbors hated you 'cause you had a shop at your house, police has your name on Speed Dial 'cause of test sessions on old country roads; the only people who were ever glad to see you were your machine shop & your speed shop & they took all your money. But, what a blast!
I disagree with that. If any racing has lack of info it’s F1
@@nitrochaney1026 You must have
govt paper work declaring you officially ancient, too, then.
I think drag racers were universally scorned back then.
Clay has taken NHRA to a new level for the UA-cam community.
He really has.
Is doing just what Cleet did for drag racing.
Love the prayer at the starting line. God Bless you and your family Clay. Keep stomping that loud pedal!!!
I find it weird
@@an04ker What's weird about it?
That's just another inside to what goes on in stanging lanes before a run. Thanks for the video Clay.
In Jesus name, Amen!
My dad use to take me to see these drag cars once a year when I was a kid. When he died I stopped watching until you was on cleats channel you brought me back to the sport. You're a awesome driver and a awesome human. keep doing your thing man!!.
The overhead camera footage is awesome, it really gives you a good idea of the teamwork that has to go into the thrash of rebuilding the engine after each run.
You are "VERIFYING YOUR CLUTCH POSITION" when you have your mirror out, I think you said that in one of your earlier videos.
Thanks for being the NHRA Ambassador for your sport Sir Clay 🏁🏁🏁🏁
Yes,he is. Just verifying that he's in neutral with the clutch, while it's running.
It was great meeting you yesterday. Thank you for the picture with my wife and I! Best wishes Clay, go get em!
Thanks for chatting & taking a photo with me. I had not been to an NHRA race in many years and I came out just to see you after seeing so many of your videos. it was a great day and the power and concussion that we felt in the stands as you went by was absolutely thrilling. Good luck today!! Oh - I am the guy that was thanking you for treating that 17-year-old kid so good and riding down down the track with him in his pick up truck a few weeks back in his quarter mile run. You’re a standup guy Clay.
he’s gone as far as to sign my dads harley davidson rain jacket after a rain delay in charlotte
Always enjoy your videos. Thanks.
I was honored to be able to have that small conversation with you Sunday afternoon in the pits. You are an inspiration not just to up-and-coming racers, but to everyone just trying to succeed in their own life's ventures. Best of luck to you and your team in 2024 and I'll see you again in 2025.
I know Cali Nate wasn’t a track racer but, he made such a big impact on small tire no prep racing! He was the guy to beat at every race! RIP. Brother!
Wish you could mention him in one of your videos! He loved racing just like you and died doing it!
THAT OVERHEAD TIME LAPSE of the crew turning the car around was awesome. As a mechanic, I personally loved it. And would love to see more in the future.
cool to see the guy lean in the car and offer a prayer. unfortunately that type of thing has faded out in the outside world, but awesome to see there are still people in nhra that do it for the drivers even after the opening ceremony one
Clay and his prayer! The media award is already done. That was Beautiful! Clay bowed his head and came up with his gloved hands. Everything going on, but he always has time.
Your extended mirror is for checking clutch disengagement. You don't use a clutch stop. You've explained that many times. I dig it. Its an OG move others don't do as much.
I really appreciate you explaining everything. It makes it so much more enjoyable. There is not another channel like yours. Thank you CLAY
It's probably the "cockpit prayer" that did it but you have a radiant glow about you in this video, Clay ! .. man... watching these videos w/ all the angles we're seeing ... it's a blessing/honor/#joyousoccasionindeed!
I really like how competitive you are without being disrespectful…and that you are sporting that blue oval!
Nothing blue about that car.
Sounded more crispy in the tone ,maybe a lean condition, or plugged fuel lines or restrictions in line’s, probably check them, good job team Rick Ware racing,clay Millican nation,,,❤thanks BigAl California .
Clay you are a terrific human being my man.......
I once had one tiny whiff of that nitro smoke, and it almost choked me. I can't imagine it every weekend, as these guys get it.
It was really nice to meet you on Saturday. The world needs more people like you and keep stompin on that loud pedal ❤😁
Those onboard shots are probably the coolest thing ever.
Thank you Clay for explaining the burst panels. I asked that question months ago and now we know. Hoping you and team are turning on win lights today. Take Care :)
Good video Clay.
In the words of Turbo John,
“Go fast and get some win lights!”
So cool to meet you yesterday Clay........FIRE ME UP!. Stomp on that loud pedal. Good luck. Hope you take home the win.
Videos just keep getting better and better. How about a win for RWR!!. GO CLAY!!🤞🤞🏆
Clay, to have Lyle, you and he are both lucky men!! What a smile it put on my face to see him with your team! 🙂
95,100 subs,, 100,000 is on the horizon! Go Clay Millican and the PartsPlus TF TEAM!!
I’m watching this and it occurred to me that Clay is like an Amato kind of figure, we didn’t have behind the scenes film with Joe but they strike me as having a similar way about them.
That overhead time lapse of the rebuild was very cool! That team seems to have it all together -- nobody gets in the way of others, and everything is done efficiently!
Just lettin' you know I'm still praying for your team, for you of course, & Rick Ware Racing! I'm honored to do so. I believe it was about a year and a half ago that I, without asking, joined your team to pray for y'all. I hope others are inspired to do th0e same. Loved the overhead of the crew at high speed. That was good footage. Like the new format, the music - guitar riff is full of energy & well expressed sass about moving out & getting loud!
Man you guys cannot buy a break on that engine, seems like everything you guys do something ends up going wrong. Just glad she didn't go up in flames. It's going to turn around you guys are going to start going around and around with no work and you're going to start winning. LETS GO !!
Let's go clay bring the win home today🏆🏆🏁🏁 CLAYS #1
Eric, you're the greatest.I really appreciate you what you go through and what you explain to Us dummies out here Look forward to the next video.Thank you much
Thank you Clay for the details on the car and issues in Q2, thanks for the pic and doing this for all of us. Keep it up and stomp on that loud pedal!!
Clay I'll bet that snap ring on the barrel valve will at least will get a visual for a while. As always thanks for taking us along!
Thanks for taking us along Clay.
Best Wishes to everyone.
You show the Best part of top fuel racing
Gotta say

Great video,Clay. Thanks for taking us subscriber's along for the ride. Your crew is always working to be on top of everything with the motor to all of the dragster. Soon you-all will be in the winners circle,team dedication will prevail. As always Stomp on that loud pedal. ✌️👍🤙🤙😎😁🍀🍀🍀🍀🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

The lower case r made me lol.. good ole Lyle😁..
i can't remember what you are looking at, i think you did mention it to 1320 but i remembered that instead of remembering what it is you are checking old school. :-)
Great job clay I hope you guys finally figure out what's going on with your engine program 😊 Hope you did well on Sunday in the Rest of the racing😊
I met Clay when he was in the IHRA at the now defunked Motor city nationals at Milan dragway in Michigan he was piloting Warner enterprise top fuel car promoting the Dukes of Hazzard Movie saw him do a blow over in that race been a huge fan ever since
Love it -love it - love it! Only thing missing is the smell! Love it!
Great to get the inside scoop of that fuel mist run. Love the thrash overhead 👍👍👍
I love that you work the clutch like a boss! We all know your looking at the rubbers to make sure you're in N! It's a little too rough in there to feel i guess....
THANK YOU FOR THE OVER HEAD CAM. LOVE TO WATCH THEM SPIN WRENCHES. ALSO LOVE IT WHEN YOU EXPLAIN TO WHAT HAPPENED WHEN IT DOES GO SOUTH.. CLAY, STOMP ON THAT LOUD PEDAL TODAY. GET UP ON THE WHEEL AND CUT THAT THREE DOWN.. 00 LIGHTS ALL DAY AND 4 W's . Good luck stay safe😊
True America power and prayers. I love this sport. God bless and good luck!
3:35 Clay, what are you looking at with that mirror?
3:40 nevermind :) LOL
I'm saying it Clay is the best ambassador for the sport of top fuel getting hyped and stomping the loud pedal to heaven and back
What happened to the Crew Chief lounge? Honestly probably my favorite part of the video’s. Stomp on that Loud Pedal!!! 🤟
You’re the man clay! Thank you for bringing us along. Crazy idea but imagine a 3 lane track on an abandon air force base, would be so cool to see these things in Maine
Charlotte NC has four lanes, if you've never seen it it's pretty cool but if you get to go in person its the sounds that really gets ya
Best of luck for today’s races. One at a time.
Team Clay Millican,#1
Good luck today Clay!!! I've got you winning in drag racing bracket bonanza this weekend!!!
Clay is taking the NHRA to the top of motorsports where it has belonged all along.
Great video explaining things with the car. LOVE IT
Good luck, Clay
Stomp Safe
Absolutely loving this! Cannot get enough. I must go visit the Aussie guys doing this locally!
Good luck for the next round 👍👍 l must agree with the comments that I have seen below. Stamp on that loud pedal and be safe. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴🏴🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks Clay, fun getting the pov. I see what you see but my hind end is stationary 😢, thanks for sharing 😊
let's get that championship
I miss the “lounge sessions”. It’s nice to hear the thoughts and what’s going on with the car.
Good luck race day! 👍
Great looking team, keeps the pedal ready to be stomped ! A1❤❤ Keep diggin!
I only watch NHRA CAUSE OF CLAY. He connect's with other people like the fans crew everyone and that's the only reason I watch clay
I think you are looking at the gases from the fuel and gauging the color to see the mix?
Thanks for the videos.
I noticed something really cool in your last couple vids. When they shut the car off, they unhook the fuel line and scramble to unscrew the fitting. I noticed recently the blue pull cord wrapped around the nut to spin the nut off the fitting like a pull cord. If I am correct, that is a pretty clever idea. I'm a little jealous I didn't think of it! LOL
It’s actually just a strip of tape he’s pulling.
Thanks for the comment -- now I know the purpose of the blue cord.
@@claymillican25 I kind of thought thats what it was. it looks like 200 mph tape. Same color! That was a good idea!
if i remember correctly they pull the line bc they don't want any fuel sitting in the cylinders
That is pretty slick. Racers are always thinking up clever ways to do things!
Thanks! God bless you All, Cheers!
Always wondered what Jess is doing on the right side of the engine during the warm up. Know he's got a procedure he goes through while watching the dash but don't know what he does. Maybe locking down the magnetos? Just a guess. If you could go over what he does in the upcoming Q&A, that would be awesome. Hopefully we'll get a cameo of Iggy & Milli too! Cheers!
Good question. I've wondered if he's turning on the computer when he reaches down inside the fairing.
Awesome , Thanks Clay 😊
I can answer the question, when he looks in the mirror, he is looking to see if the wheels are spinning. I think its because if he push the clutch alle the way in, the wheels will spinn, he need to find the sweet spot where they dont spinn.
Loved seeing the prayer take place, have been missing that part of the content.
Hi Clay. Hey i saw somithing. I wish you would give a close look at. Whrn you showed us the ring that holds in the plug on the fuel barrel i think the clip was in backwards. The sharp or burr side needs to be out. Looked to me like the rounded edge was out. This can cause the snap-ring to come loose. !!! Please double check !!! And stay safe have a great day. Andy
Love these vids. Great insight on how much goes into running these cars. ❤ from 🇦🇺
Hell yeah BROTHER!!! Send it!!
Good luck Clay M. 💪💪💯💯🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Love your videos mate ….God bless you and Parts Plus racing team from Brisbane Australia
GOOOD morning! Let’s gooo! #fullpull 💙💙💙
Love the Prayer at the line🙏🏻WITHOUT GOD WE DON'T EXIST and racing wouldn't be possible 🙏🏻🙏🏻💞🤗💞🙏🏻 LOVE that your whole team ARE BELIEVER'S IN CHRIST 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
hahaha. I was about to give and ask what you look at with the mirror, and then the message came up on the video. perrrrrrfect
I just left last night and I wanted to meet you but I couldn't find you in the pits. Good racing. Good luck today
Clay.
Stomp that freakin' loud pedal maaan!
Awesome content Millicans! Rooting for ya tomorrow!!
I know what your looking at, you recently explained that... lol. But I will listen again. Awesome content as always.
Clay, your videos just keep getting better! Now turn on some win lights!
Enjoyed the lesson on the burst panels.
Thank you! 😁
Great video! Love the in car cam!
Awsome job clay....like the motor cam ...guys a amazing
