Clay and crew said they’re down to do a pull with one of their spare cars next time they’re in town, but this was the only car they had for the $250k race in Bradenton this weekend!

Can't blame them they gotta get the race done so cool they came to the shop
Can we put the top fuel engine in Leyro for a day
You forgot to pin this comment
You should be ashamed promoting gambling sites.. 🤡
Cleetus needs his own top fuel car.
One thing about that last shot, Cleet giving the trophy to one of the kids in the stands. I was literally that little kid at one point at a local circle track racing event, i still have the trophy too. One of the guys that won gave me the trophy and I will absolutely never forget that memory. Spanaway Speedway in Washington, they tore it down years ago unfortunately but it was one these types of events. Love that shit, i wish we still had more of them.
I have a story similar to that I was at a local event with my dad supporting one of his freinds and a staff member walked up and he let me say “drivers start your engines!!” I was 4 and am 15 now and will never forget that moment
Cool story. 👍
@@calebyoung4418
Spanaway Speedway was awesome, lots of awesome memories going to the track as a kid in the late 90s and up until it closed in 03.
Dam man small world. Spanaway speedway was my shit. On of my highschool buddys house was near it so we would walk there all the time to check it out. Super small world
Hey man! That’s awesome. I went through the aircraft mechanic program at Clover Park Technical College. One of my instructors raced at Spanaway Speedway regularly. He was over 80, sharp as a tack, and still racing. This was in the mid 90’s
As a Father of Three, Handing that little girl in the stands the trophy was the most awesome thing you have ever done in my eyes....The way her face lit up was priceless a true Gentlemen Garrett !! She is a fan for life now !!!
As a father of none, having a lot of money for car parts is the most awesome thing i have ever done in my eyes. The way my face lit up when the parcel was delivered. The delivery man was a true Gentleman. I am a fan for life now
@@partickstar1135careful what you say about having no kids, these rednecks like to fire out kids like it's their job
Enough about you dude.. @@partickstar1135
@@partickstar1135 Bitter, table of 1.
@@partickstar1135 I know you're trying to be funny, but this is one comment thread you need not reply on.
That final shot.. class act.
That's kid will likely have that memory forever. Of all the cool stuff you guys do on the channel that was one of the coolest imo!
I agree. Was about to type similar. He really knows how to treat the fans. Giving away that trophy was class act. The first spectator event he won. Gives the trophy to a fan. Epic character in this guy. Lets hope he does not pull Steve Erwin on us. Love this guy.
Completely agree. What a big heart ❤️…
This comment is a literal time capsule waiting to be unveiled to those kids who got cleetus trophy. One heck of a story that'll be
That was a class act move for sure! Great job Cleetus! Those kids will remember that forever! You ROCK! J Poll.
Imagine showing up to "show n tell" with that..... nobody could compete lol
I worked at darkside skate park Memphis TN in like 1998-2002ish. Clay would bring his kid by to skateboard.. he is exactly the awesome personality that you see here . He is genuinely the person you see
Clay is the nicest guy ! I worked for a company that sponsored his team in 2018 . I had him wear my Apple Watch in Pomona during a run his heart rate went from 70-180 back to 70. Within seconds of the run.
And?
Don’t sound healthy 😂😂
@@MrYz250riderquiet down
Cleetus just made a car girl for life! That trophy will always be special to her!
How cool to give your trophy to that awesome young family that little boy was so happy
I was afraid the dragster was going to blow the dyno-marlin off the wall... That was very cool, making a couple of young kids' day by giving them the trophy... you are a class act!
The Dyno Marlin is a G...
I have one of Clay's Pistons and Rods autographed on my desk right behind me. He gave the piston to my dad years ago, then when my dad asked him for a rod, Clay couriered it to him. Clay is a class act, a true gentleman and all around good man. I'm a fan of the good person he truly is.
Huge respect for the crew chief the nixed the dyno pull before it even got started. I flashed back to the early days of "full pull" and the damage the cleet crew did to engines..
What a unit!!
Jeff lutz, clay Millican. Cleet has the greatest life ever….
Not only does he deserve every minute of it and earned this life he has. But hes still such a class act and gives trophies to kids and more. What a badass human being. Inspiration and role model for many for sure
@@tunanocrust2642 facts!!
I worked for Indy Cylinder Head back in the day, we used to "break in" top fule motors for Joe Gibbs on our engine dyno from time to time. Probably the worst experence of my life. To be in a small room with a running nitro motor is madness, I'm amazed no one died. The exhaust is pure tear gas, it's so loud it hurts your chest, everything will burn you, and that blower belt will litterally rip your arm off.
Don't worry. They had their safety squints on.
Agree with other comments here, that final shot was awesome, that kid is gonna remember that moment for a long time and it didnt take much for Cleet to do that. A+ brother.
That's one of them, "Hell Ya Brother" moments, ain't it.
Man this channel just keeps leveling up and idk that yall are even trying to, that’s the crazy part. Last week (or week before) you were out at Diesel Bro’s flying a BlackHawk, doing a podcast basically with DBoys and CBoyz, then you come home to run a real drag car lol just dope. And with a solid ass crew like you got. You’re so blessed to have your best friends there thru all this, be able to share it with them, and been able to bring on the talent and genuinely good guys like Ty and Sam into all this as well. You’re crazy blessed and you’re grateful, show appreciation, you’re just a solid guy. Happy for yall and happy I can be along with!
I love the random PPE. Cleetus with earmuffs, one guy has a respirator, a few cover their ears with their hands... and the one guys just working 😂
🤣🤣
And the other three dipping their fingers in the nitro tank, Jesus 😂
@plymouthsuperbee1707 what could go wrong 😂
@@plymouthsuperbee1707 They aren't afraid of everything in the universe. That is why he has fans.
@@eriklarson9137 what? I was referring to how unsafe X amount of things happening in the video, and nobody mentioned them dipping my and TASTING nitro
Clay Millican is such a down to earth nice guy. He’s one of the few drivers that loves to interact with fans, especially kids.
I've been a fan of Clay since I saw his interview with Brent from Boosted Boys when he was going through all of that EPA crap.
Nicest guy
Clay is a true people person in drag racing I've met a lot of drivers in my time Joe amato and Don perdome were the rudest people I have ever met in my life
Nothing worse than rude racers who won’t spend time with their fan base.
Gotta foster in that next generation or racing is screwed
I remember when Cletus was breaking windows with spark plugs and Kyle was building a go kart shopping cart and now they are here crazy!
Brent to. It's awesome
I first clicked on his videos when he bought that track.
I was a total naysayer and thought to myself: "Man, that Kid is way over his head!?"
The next Video he poured a thousand yards of concrete.
I did some bracket racing in highschool, street pulls as I got older, maybe 50 1/4 mile runs in my life and seeing Cleet come this far is insane to watch. I mean them building a ten second car out of pretty much anything they want is super fast. 10 seconds is a bad ass car. Then to see cleet slowly make his way to 9,8,7 and now 6's in mullet is pretty standard. 100k motors and free floating rear ends is a super high level of racing. Yet, its almost a bigger gap from top fuel to mullet then the gap from mullet to sam's f150. To have a team of guys to run one car. 100's of thousands of dollars for one weekend. shit, lets call it a million after you account for salaries, the rig, all the items you replace. So insane to see how far it really goes in racing. Hats off Cleet, i see a pro mod in ur future!
2 things I like about your videos. You don't use the f word and I love it when you start up your cars and let us hear the loud sounds of the engines at Idle. Thank you
y
The Porsche drifting in the burnout area with the sunset and stands full of people. I've never been more jealous of someone. What a life
I love how Clay does this for all his favorite channels. Not just this, he loves to show people how much he loves them. Awesome dude
I can’t think of a better ambassador for the sport, he embodies enthusiasm.
Clay is a great man.
Holy hell!! I'm not sure I've ever seen Cleetus smile harder than when that dragster was running in the shop. Pure happiness 😊
Cheesin hard. But any power nut would, i mean 10k hp would
Literally running off nitro 😂
My dad and I went to see the Top Fuels race in Indianapolis I think it was September 2023 and it was definitely something fierce. When the first nitro car came out, a funny car, it took off, and my entire world shook and i didn't plug my ears the first time lol it was insanity. The car launched and by the time I was able to see straight again I look over and see it trapped 330 in under 4 seconds. They really are a sight to see and it is so awesome that Cleetus worked with these guys to get one on his channel!
Had the pleasure of meeting Clay a few yrs back, such a nice guy
Excellent vid. Unless you've stood next to a top fuel car doing a throttle whack, there's no way to describe it. Your shirt moves from the pressure; it's insane. Clay Millican is the coolest. The look on that little girl's face when Garrett gave her his trophy was truly priceless. That's a fan for life. Job well done Garrett.
Idk if "shirt moves from the pressure" is adequate enough... definitely somewhere between that and "feel it in your soul" like a jet car does though!
It's the craziest experience
Throttle waps are a blast when your right by them.
@@gamingwithblaise3822 Its probably been 10 years or more since top fuel ran where I live, I still remember it rattling my bones. You def feel it in the soul, that and ear protection is basically useless as nothing stops that noise haha
9:34 And here we see the majestic giraffe running through his natural habitat.
i thought he was going to smoke his head off of the minivan
Cleetus hiding behind the door in his full race suit and helmet is hilarious
Man Clay is such a smooth operator and a super chill dude. Seeing him at the Freedom shop really makes me happy. Was great to see his top fuel car running Cleetus colors was very cool.
Cleeter is in some rarefied air there. Top Fueller team in the shop, AND Jeff Lutz just randomly hanging out there. That giving the trophy to the little girl was the cherry on top though.
Naaa... NO2 is pretty easy to generate, as you can see.
Theres some amazing people in one place, you got fred/1320, cleet and crew, lutz and crew and clay and crew and dragster. Holy shit thats cool. Imagine the off camera conversations and planning of future events!
Brent from PFI also
Isn’t Fred saying brents daughter now?
When I've had a horrible day, like today, alI have to do is watch a Cleet video!!! Giving that Trophy to that young family warms my heart!!! Bless you Brother and your entire team.
I've been following Clay ever since he started his YT channel. Really like how he represents top fuel and the pursuit of winning each round. When I went to my first NHRA race I knew the TF and funny cars would be loud, but nothing short of standing next to a fighter in full afterburner prepared me for the air pressure change.
The pass off to the little girl at the end is straight up class. What a cool dude.
Nice Hoodie Tye 👌🔥
As an Australian all I was starring at the first 5 mins of the video was that Holden Ute sitting in the background with burnout tyres on
I think that's the Twisted Tea replacement!
Soon.
Yea he's had the ute awhile now there putting the ford Godzilla engine in it
@@Anthonyw421 is that whats going into it now? i knew they talked about possibly putting a BB in it but i think that one they had went into killabee. would be sick with the godzilla still.
@@sirmonkey1985 i would have loved for them to put a Barra in the Thunder ute just for the disrespect.
So awesome that Clay is out and about and isn't just accessible, but he participates in the drag car madness outside of NHRA. So cool that the drag racing community is so chill with everyone involved.
Awesome to see a video with Clay Millican! RIP Dalton Millican. He was one of my favorite ATV Motocross racers when i was younger!
Nice touch at the end there Cleet. Those kids will never forget that.
This just goes to show that Cleet is a real fans hero….Giving that trophy to those kids, they will NEVER forget it and from here on out they will now be watching his channel…He just started two new little car fans right there 🎉
Clay is so cool, sort of reminds me of a younger version of Sam when he talks👍 Freedom!
i like how at 6:25 the team just assumes the stance lmao
There's a certain point where all the work stops.
The cars put to the test, and so is everyone else.
Nothing left to do but to watch what she does!
The shut down procedures being quick and efficient no missed step.
same thing on the starting line
Or the guy with the mask looking across at the other guy when the throttle gets stuck open and they're trying to shut it off at 10:00 🤣🤣🤣 that was a good hidden oh shit moment.
So dope
Clay is such an awesome dude, love that he's doing stuff with local guys
He really is the best.. and Mr.Ware (along with Jim-O and the gang) is the coolest team OF ALL TIME *in my book*
Clay is such a cool dude. For anyone who hasn't been near one of these cars or seen them in person, do it at least once in your life! Staggering Brute Force!
Clay is by far the nicest man in racing. He’s like that in person too. Really an awesome guy.
Cleet you are the man you made those little kids life giving them that trophy. One of those memories that they will never forget
I saw it in their eyes too. They are about to become the next great racers
Just a random Jeff Lutz hanging out in the parking lot. That's how you open a video.
No Jeff was in Florida all week for sick week and him and claim Milliken are really good friends
Man those nitro cars are UNREAL, if you’ve never experienced it for yourself it’s impossible to explain, it’s like a massive earthquake erupting in your body and your eyes rattle in your head, these cars are NUTSS Love the videos cleet!!🇺🇸
It will rattle the fillings in your teeth
You should stand at the fence in Charlotte during the 4 wide events when 4 top fuel cars go wide open throttle!!
Even just whacking the throttle like they did, it doesnt sound like an engine, it sounds like a bomb going off. Bonkers that they hold together under that sort of assault.
I took an ex-army guy down to the pits during warm up time for the fuelers at his first event. He said the closest thing he could compare it to was an artillery barrage.
@@subohmcircus I believe it
Congratulations 🎉 on a beautiful baby daughter 👧 ❤
So jelly, cleet gets to hang out with so many cool people! I'd love one of Clay's dragster rods on my wall in my man cave
16:00 Its so freaking funny seeing a MINIVAN out launch a Turbo S like that lmao
Well it’s basically a $100,000 Tesla
what cleetus didn't include, was that kyle actually beat him the first round! lol Sure he probably lost that footage like last time lmao
@@Wockkkyyslushieee That Porsche ain't cheap either
@@Wockkkyyslushieeeand a $150k Porsche
The Tesla minivan is definitely impressive
Mr. Ware is the best CAR OWNER *EVER!!* Jim-O, & the Gang need to come to the shop every year..
Everyone needs a mate like Jimmy or Cleetus!! Those 2 are absolute legends 👍👍
The team behind them… priceless and irreplaceable!!
Really got something special going here and it’s an honour to see and feel a part of 👍👍👍
Clay is a absolute legend. And extremely nice dude. Met him multiple times at events, always super friendly and welcoming. Nice to see him in a Cleetus video.
I love that you stay genuine and don’t go easy at your own event. Too many people worry about today’s society. Hell yeah brother 🤘🏼
I just rewatched the first time you met diesel Dave and the guys 3 years ago. When they raced Ruby! So freaking cool to see how far y’all have came!!! Freaking BLACKHAWK BROTHERS! I’m a 9 year ARMY VETERAN and am super jelly!!! Keep on keepin UA-cam alive. One love brother.
lol There’s nothing better than when they whack the throttle in the pits. Everyone smiling and nitro crying together. The best.
Clay just got a whole lot more fans. What a cool guy!
Clay Millican is one of the most positive and enthusiastic guys ive seen! Ive never heard of him before the PFI/Boostedboiz vids but im a fan of him since! Hope you'll do well Clay!😎🤙
Thank you RICK for this dragster today!!!!
Watched Clay when I was a kid, one of my favorites not only because of being a fantastic driver but because of his wonderful personality!!!
An amazing day for the Cleetus boys with a visit from top fuel drag guy Clay Millikan and crew. Gotta give a thumbs up to the owner, Rick Ware, for letting it happen too. Clay is a down to earth guy. The Honda van with the plaid underwear is pretty damn quick. The Plaidessey needs cornering to beat that Porsche. The acceleration is definitely there but on that short a track, cornering is everything. Cleetus has friends in high places.👍👍🇨🇦
Dude you just made a core memory for those kids! Lol awesome!!
I love going into the data behind top fuel dragsters, it's just mind blowing stuff! They're true engineering marvels!
So the fact we're gonna see them tearing one down is going to be SICK!!
Clay Millican is one of the most amazing men who loves what he does. He loves his fans. Solid guy. Always smiling even when it’s not going his way.
Seeing Jesse, Izzy, Double Duty Austin, Ringo Blaine, Matt Can, Trucker Shane, & Andrew the Great roll that car out with the CLEETUS logo was the most special moment Since Ripley was born!
AND JIM-O!!!
Awesome video!! Also giving that little girl your trophy at the end of the video was an awesome thing to do!
Every person on the planet should experience standing next to a top fuel dragster when it blips the throttle. It feels like your body is going to explode!!
I was at one top fuel event when I was like 15 with my cousins. Sadly, we didn't go to the pits, but I can absolutely confirm that when they run, it kinda feels like your guts are liquefying for a few seconds. I fully intend to go to the pits one day.
Same here... seen them at Santa Pod a few times over the years.. its an experience. They dont accelerate.. THEY EXPLODE. 😎
@@Cordfosworth Yeah, it feels like a nuclear blast for a few seconds.
I felt lex joon mpm oil his topfueldragster at drachten netherlands 2008
You just made a lifelong impression on that little boy at the end, that was awesome.
Clay and Jeff being there was awesome but, you giving the kids your trophy was absolutely awesome! You made their day!
So much good. Literally clay brings a top fuel dragster to your shop. Then you beat the Tesla. And give your trophy to a couple of fans. Cleetus getting that good karma
@8:14 George to Clay, “That’s why you have a professional crew chief…” Cleet “Yaaaa….. We would’ve made a pull” hahah... 😂😂
I cannot imagine how loud that thing is indoors. 😮
Well I seen them in Bristol in the pits and it's so loud when there testing the clutch like throttle rips it shakes the ground under your feet so much the fact it feels like you're stomach is in your throat
Clay and Brent have to be the smiliest, most positive people I’ve seen ! Great content
The Porsche is unbeatable and it was cool to see Jeff lutz on the channel....he's a true motorsports legend
Clay Millican is one of the most genuine people I've ever met. Man always has a smile, win or lose. When I worked for the NHRA, he was my favorite driver to talk to and the end of the track. Couldn't have had a better driver to put your face on the side of their car.
Trophy hand off 👌👍
Kyle almost had the second round at the end .. he was chasing HARD😄👍
That plaid pulls HARD, even tho it was at about 50% battery at the start of the racing. Still, the turbo S is such a good car, it makes up for its lack of power around the corners by being lighter and having great suspension.
Cletus looks so happy in his fire suit and helmet!! 💣💥
2:27 Jeff lutz in the back round 😂
The look on that kids face when he gave them the trophy was priceless.
That's awesome you made them kids night. Love it. Cleetus
The way that boy looked at you like you were a superhero. He'll never forget that. They both won't.
I loved how once it started everyone just stood back and admired it
Love it.!! You never let us (the fans) down. For all of you content haters, suck it. This guy rocks. He kills it in fact. I have watched him and this channel grow so much from the beginning. TY for all the hard work.
Back when the boys were young, ens we would go to Pomona for both races. One Saturday we were in the pits and and I stepped into that cloud on purpose. My eyes still burn 45yrs later.
Mr. McMillan was standing with us. He jumped as much at the Wack as we did and was laughing as hard.
Pure Gentleman.
TF in person is THE coolest shit ever. Seeing first timers get the throttle whack in person makes anyone laugh like a kid. Clay and his team are awesome.
I swear every year they add a thousand horsepower to the number of these top fuel dragsters. Whatever happened to 9,000 then 10,000 then 11,000 then 12,000 then 13,000 then 14,000, now it's 15,000 apparently 🤯
12000 is what they make at the % of nitro they run in top fuel if they could run 100% nitro it would probably make 14000hp
Well they seem to go faster every year so something is changing.
Sorry for the confusion
Developments in fuel delivery, intake design, clutch application, small details and track prep have contributed to improving hp estimates.
Any top fuel driver knows they spin the entire run which makes it a little bit tricky to calculate the hp 😑
A dyno run shows a better projected hp figure without the wheel spin
Sorry for contributing to your sleepless nights. Clay
Science...
that's called progression. I remember when 600HP was doing something in a street car now you need at least 1200HP to play the game
Clay Millican is a legend!
Cleetus you‘re one of the really good guys. Passing on the trophy to the kids at the end was awesome. Look their eyes! Keep it on
I been going to nhra races since im 5 years old with my grandfather. Im glad more people are becoming aware of how awesome they are
The best part was giving the little girl and boy the trophy.
I was surprised Jim O went as far as it did. Which was way cool to watch.
I would have loved too be a fly on the wall when Clay was discussing this with Jim O and Rick, I bet it was interesting, but Jim O is use too crazy shit he worked for Connie Kalitta, my buddy worked for him on Scott's car and I heard some crazy stories back then.
Huge Hell yeah brother to RWR to allow Clay and JimO and crew to do the craziest Dyno attempt ever!!!!
Clay is such a chill dude. We used to do his websites and stuff and he was 100% a class act any time we were fortunate enough to go to races with him. I still remember the first time I took photos for him. I lined up my shot on the start line as they took off and I was fortunate enough to take a photo of the stars lol. The shockwave almost knocked me on my butt.
Clay is cool as hell...he is the real deal.. I wasn't into drag racing that much, mostly Nascar stuff, but he's got me into it
That dragster would have blown up that dynamic and possibly taken the car with it lol. Good thing they pulled the plug
Yeah dawg. Lunch break in aus. Let’s goooo. Gotta bring back the duck calls on a BOV Garret
DUDE! Clay lives about 10 min up the road from me! Drummonds TN!
Me too I pass his sign every morning dropping my daughter off at school
We here in northern Idaho are *Jelly as HELL!*
Me too, but only a half mile away.
@@leebrooks5709 901 crew what's up!
I'm actually over in Munford!
This is actually probably one of the coolest thing you've ever done! So so badass from Clay and the crew to be there.
Has to be the happiest I've ever seen Lutz. Dude always seems to have the world on his shoulders.
