$1000 RACECAR: THE FINALE!!! We did it!!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2018
- It took a lot longer than I had planned or hoped for but we finally got the job done! The series operates with the rules that if you place top 2 they claim your car. This keeps the cars from getting too expensive and keeps the racing cheap and fun! We ended up collecting a $2900 check in exchange for the car and had a ton of fun along the way. This is the end of the integra for the channel, but if you guys want to see another build let me know in the comments what you'd like to see!
Special thanks to Massivespeedsystem.com for the help! - Авто та транспорт
Keep doing stuff with dirt racing im just getting into fwd racing and your the only channel i have found that dose build videos
Hope you guys enjoyed the series! Sound off in the comments and let me know if you want to see another build and have us go for an even bigger check! The car will be on ebay for sale in a month or two from video post date if you want to buy it!
I would love to buy
I just found your channel and love it bro !!!! Great job on the build and of course the VICTORY . Im building one myself at the moment for short track racing in south bend IN Horent class . 2001 chevy cavalier 2.2 non ecotech
The drift in the first 18 was awesome 😎
Excellent driving, respect.
Congrats man, just found your channel and watched this series through. I picked up a little Cavalier not too long ago to do an enduro build and your videos definitely help with figuring out where to start. Looking forward to seeing what you build next!
AWESOME! Thanks for watching! Good luck on the build and don't forget to have fun along the way!
Congrats! Great driving. Watched the whole thing. I would like to see another build. Saturn or cavalier or whatever.
gO FOR IT! MUCH FUN WATCHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Thanks!
Nice win! I’m getting excited for my first race car build. Just purchased a 1976 impala that I’ll be running in the super stock class! I’d love to see another build. Awesome job guys 👏
Thank you! Good luck on your build. Keep it fun!
dude great driving nice to see family helping
Thanks man! Glad dad is around to help thats for sure!
nice job guys. i just found this channel and subscribed today. i am an engineering student down in FL and once i am done with school i will be starting a build like this. thanks for all the info and details. i was thinking of using my 04 ford Taurus but its under powered, but its just for fun. congrats on the win!
Thanks man! Good luck on the build. You can always build a slower car for your first one as you will be learning how to do everything on it for the first time. Then once you figure a few things out you can build a newer, faster and better one!
Good job bud. Love the channel. Good thing that green ecotec blew. He looked fast
That was an epic race! Those huge fields are always exciting to watch. Around min 26 it seems like that tire changed at the half threw the tread. Min 42 was a great save, and 44:45 was where it almost ended. The whole race kept my on the edge of my seat, brings back the old days at LG speedway! Congrats #49! Build an early 90's fwd subaru dirt car next!
Thanks man! Brings back the good old days, right!
Nice car pretty fast !!! For a P...of..$ch...ttttt !!! Thanks for the vid
Thanks man! Not bad for a pile. :D
Nice work! Keep it up man
Thanks for watching!
nice racing man, it was fun to watch
Thanks dude!
Nice job on the build and the win. Definitely build another car, I'd like the chance to race against you. My car got wrecked in Jefferson this last spring so it's been sitting since then. I don't think I will have it out this year but for sure next year. This is a fun series to race in.
Thats no fun! I think we will build another one if not by the end of this year, for sure next season! Hope to see you out there!
Hell yea, nice win guys
Thanks!
congrats!
Thanks man!
good job man
Thank you!
I can't get enough of this. Sad to see the car go, but nice win!
Can always build another one! I kind of miss it too.... But hey, this is what we build it for!
Idk if you'll see this because the video is old, but I've always loved racing and loved watching the 4 cylinder races. Watching this series really inspired me to start my own build. I'm hoping I can do it and the fact that you race in Wisconsin is awesome.
I always try to read every comment. Still have a small enough channel for that, haha. Thanks man! Just get some friends or family together and start wrenching on one. Thats what I did back in 2002. It eventually led me to be paid to race! Life is crazy, just follow your passion and try to have fun along the way.
Congratulations bro! New the Integra would get em! Build something with a 2.2 eco or a prelude!
Prelude would be fast for sure! I did get passed by a cavalier during the race too but it blew up shortly there after. lol
@@thatracinglife yeah for stock cars you really can't beat the Integra! I've heard preludes are good.
Both solid choices
nice win, now go get a w in that sentra!
Might try this weekend! If it doesn't rain.
@@thatracinglife heck yeah! I'm looking forward to seeing the Sentra in victory lane!
Please do another build. You should do a 6 cylinder this time if your able to. I race Enduros in Pennsylvania. The track I race is jennerstown speedway you can run 4 or 6 cylinders. I have a 2006 pontiac g6 gt.
We are only allowed 4cyl cars here. Thanks for the feedback!
Keep it up.
Thanks dude! Winter is coming. I will have time to catch up on the the videos from this summer. lol
Maybe include a list of the tracks that runs this class of cars. Thanks
Pretty much any circle track across the country will have a similar class that races weekly.
you should get some dry ice and 90% proof alcohol and pour the alcohol and dry ice onto the floor to remove the sound denting board in the car floor it takes time but it will come off in sheets once its cold nuff and you can save a few pounds in weight .......................just little racing tip
Watch the build series, I show you an easier way without using those chemicals.
Great build. I'm currently building a budget race car for dirt. Gave me a few more ideas on things I can do
Awesome! Get out there and have some fun!
@@thatracinglife oh I will for sure may do what u did and go to the big money races like that
Where do I find them types of races around where I live
Thats a tough one. You can hit up a couple facebook groups. Front wheel drive racing page usually has a lot of info on upcoming races in different areas. Pretty large community there. Otherwise hit up some local tracks on the weekends and start asking the local guys whats around!
@@thatracinglife yeah we have 2 local dirt tracks around my area I plan on racing at . Just kinda peaked my interest on the bigger money races. Also I see u have a dirt car as well. Mines a 99 caviler 4 door so I'm sure I got a bit ahead of me to make it a tad faster
This looks like a bunch of fun. We race in the Champcar Series and will be at Road America. This looks as fun, but cheaper!
I'd like to do more road racing as that's my profession, but this is about 1/10th the price!
@@thatracinglife That is exactly what I was thinking too. Go into it with an idea of disposable cars. You can check out our new build. We are getting ready for Road America next month. nastyz28.com/threads/1978-endurance-racecar-build.323010/page-7#post-3697210
Damn that was a good car I wouldn't have wanted to win so I could keep it!!
Time to build another one! Car will be on ebay if you want to grab it up!
@@thatracinglife where are you located out of so I can see if it's anywhere close to me
Car will be available for pick up near Green Bay Wi. I live in northern IL
you should put a hondata cpu in there to tune the motor raise the rev. limiter to 8 or 8,5 and you can mess with the timing and the fuel map but the cpu is still a stock looking cpu just the inside is different
you should go onto 4 piston racing web sight and look at all there parts they are one the best
No need to put any extra money in to these cars as they take them away and sell them to anyone (even competitors) on ebay.
Hell yeah brother got any tips on how you got the ass end of the car to stick I cant get my honda to stick in the back
Usually it's the other way around! Lol. Check your rear toe, make sure it's not too far out. Also try slowing down your corner entry a bit and being more gentle with your steering input. Car shouldn't be that loose. If it gets loose get back on the gas!
Can you build a Saturn
For a dirt car ??
Super great driving man love watching you race. I got a question tho, I just bought a 95 Integra to do oval with and was wondering if adding camber and toe is really needed for racing asphalt oval?
Thanks man! Congrats on getting a car! You will absolutely need some camber in the front right and at least zero toe if you want your tires to last and actually make good grip. I did go over a basic way to get a toe reading in one of the older videos.
Thanks for the reply I’ll definitely check out that video. Thanks man
You can also get adjustable ball joints for the upper control arm pretty cheap to get a little camber. Lowering the car will give you some as well.
Thanks a lot man I appreciate it a lot will definitely look into those ball joints. My series doesn’t allow any suspension work to be done so lowering is sadly not an option
Any particular brand you would recommend for the ball joints?
Are you guys still doin any racing. Haven't gotten any dings for new vids miss ya guys love the content
Thanks for commenting. I have shuffled a lot of things around and have been busy with "life" stuff. Focused more on other things and buying parts for a huge upcoming project for the winter months. Started building 2 brand new circle track cars in the free time. Next year should be racing quite a bit more than usual along with some drifting and a street oriented build. Will be back with that! Thanks again!
What did you spray on the radiator at halfway since it was hot
Just water out of a garden sprayer.
Very confused on paved racing but is it standard practice to just leave broken cars in the middle of the track
Not standard at all. Lol. Part of the quirks of this racing series. I don't particularly like it. But it's the way they want to run it.
Got a question do you prefer racing on asphalt or dirt better? I race asphalt but I'm tempted to try dirt
I prefer asphalt. Dirt is really hard on these cars. They are not meant for the rough surface. Racing tends to be a little more smashy too. Also just like the rhythm you get on asphalt. Dirt can be fun for sure! Try it and you might like it!
Looks cool and it's fast for being a piece of shit. Amazing work!
Thanks! JUST picked up a new one for next year. Stay tuned!
I am sure that the length of the track prevents you from speeding up past 2nd gear.
Yeah. Better off gearing it for 1 gear.
HOW in the hell do they keep track of what spot you and other racers are in at the end of the race do they have transponders or something like that or is there people that just keep track somehow
Transponders
I’d like to see a cavalier
They can be fast!
If you cant get anymore speed out of the two federals on the front take it off the left front and put it on the right rear that's how i run mine
They are completely killed. Both tires chunked down to the cords!
Federals have to be cut or they will chunk up. They have less grip brand new as well. The more worn they get the more grip you will have with them but they have to be cut down about half way or they will get destroyed
Exactly. I was thinking since its a softer tire it should be ok. Boy was I wrong on that one!
You should do a Hyundai accent build
I'll put it on the list!
How long did it take you to edit?
Around 12 hours I think. lol
@@thatracinglife Wow
Pretty much all day yesterday. 2pm-2am with a dinner break. lol.
Your hair is long now :o
and by long I think you mean haggard.
what is the newest car you have ever seen on the track?
2014 I saw a 2012 civic si on track. Looked like insurance totalled it and dude bought it and fixed it enough to race.
@@thatracinglife I am sure it was the fastest car on the track. I think after 2009, car manufacturers had found a way to make efficient cheap cars to where they do not have to be slow, but more quicker. The civic is just the economical sports car for that. After all, a car is only as fast as a person is as good as driving it. Did he like strip the car from interior panels, dashboard, headlights, front bumper?
Was not even in the top 10 actually. New cars make more power but are also very heavy. Yes it was a fully gutted racecar. A 92-95 civic with a B series swap was the fastest car that day.
Saturn
I'll add it to the list! Thanks for the feedback!

There ya go buddy 2 running 5 speed Saturn's 800 bucks
LOL not a bad deal! I need the space for other projects at the moment. But hey thats a solid deal for someone trying to get in to it!
Are you guys still having ppl come race with you when the put I'm in in the comments
As of now yes. But far from 10k subs still.
@@thatracinglife I'll have some of my buddies subscribe to your channel. I've learned lots of things and just enjoy your content.
@@justinbradbury3633 thanks! Appreciate you watching!
@@thatracinglife absolutely man I enjoy what you guys do and I learn more new things
Build a cavalier
Lots of them out there running! We ended up with a prelude for the next time around. Build series coming soon!
It’s a good watch I race a cavalier so that’s why I said that just wanted to see what you’d do with one
Gotcha. I know they can be quick.
o and 4 piston racing makes a all motor k serese motor with like 400+ all Honda power that would make that car fly it has maybe 200 220 at most but you can make that motor 300 all motor just have to mod it but company's make millions of aftermarket parts for Honda 4 cylinder motors its endless
Why do they take your car? Haha
Big paychecks! Where else can you win 3-6k with a sub 1k car? They take the cars and resell them on Ebay. Keeps people from spending a lot of money on them.
What kind of racing is this called
There are a bunch of names. FWD, Compacts, Mini stocks, pure stock, bandits, etc. The long race formats like this are called enduro racing.
@@thatracinglife hey thanks for the response. A buddy and I bought an 04 sunfire for $500 and are building it to be a racecar in our shop class. Our end goal is to race it but both of us have no race experience of have any knowledge of how to find a race to enter
Where do you live? there are many circle tracks all over the country. Almost all of them have a class for FWD cars. I had zero experience when I started too! Me and a friend just stripped the car behind my boss' house who sponsored us by letting us use his truck and trailer since we had no way to get to the track! Get that car done and go have some fun!
@@thatracinglife were actually in canada.. ontario to be more specific. Somethings so cool about spending minimal and having maximum fun and still getting the full experience!
Check out this page. They have a bunch listed. Good luck on the build! Thanks for watching.

Why pit brake lights in a race car? Lol
Helps to not get you rear ended when there is 100+ cars on a 1/4 mile track.
2002 nissan ser spec v
I have one already! haha. Its a popular car for one of the top guys in the series.
Yep go bigger , step up to a v8 class .
I am not really a fan of the old V8 cars. I'd love to hop in a late model. But the rest of those old V8's dont do anything for me. Our 4cyl cars run similar lap times these days and they drive a whole lot better! Product of a different generation I guess! We are planning to build another one of these cars at some point, thanks for watching!
Please do a ÀUDI or VW race car. Keep it German my friend.
All the good german cars have 5cyl engines though ;)
why the fuck do they take your car when you win?
But loved the series, hopefully you can do another like this one
They take your car to keep cost down. If someone spends 5k+ on their car and win every race it gets old and then becomes a race of who has the most money. With these rules you can build a car for super cheap and walk away with some decent money in your pocket. You can always buy your car back on ebay if you'd like. Might get it back cheap, might cost you more than you won. Everyone who races this series knows it and it actually keeps it pretty fun because no one is building stupid fast cars. I think we will build another one at some point!
