      I tell people Clay is the best friend you haven't met yet! Your car was on display at the Detroit International Auto Show several years back as a display in the Denso booth. Nobody was around and I said to the guy I was with , I wonder if Clay is here too. Sure enough as we were looking over the car, you walked out of the back of the display and proceeded to talk to us like we were old buddies. We talked for several minutes and you gave us both autographed hero cards of your car. I've known you prior to you being in NHRA when you used to run IHRA top fuel with Werner trucking and I'd see you at US131 Dragway in Martin, MI.

    It's hard to explain how much Clay and his team have done for Nitro, he's given sooooo many people a level of access you could only *dream* of from the big teams. He's what racing is really all about! Which speaks true to him having real racers around him... Steve, Kevin, Brent, Cleat, Kyle we appreciate you all!

      He is the best. I literally bumped into him and before I could even turn around, he was apologizing, and just looked genuinely hurt that he may have caused me pain or an inconvenience. And, it was 100% my fault. Anyway, he welcomed me back to his pit, got a close look at some things, and chatted for a few. Truly the epitome of what racing is.

      The amount of access we get on Clay's channel is phenomenal. The past half a year or so there has been less in the lounge which is a shame but I respect that they don't want to be sharing certain stuff with the other teams. In previous years though there was an amazing amount that Clay showed of the inner workings in the lounge with Jim (and Bruce when he was stateside) and with Mike (before Jim joined the team).

    AKA called the PUKE TANK. It should be able to hold all the oil the Engine system has. The size of that opening on the manifold is regulated by the NHRA. On average the Teflon strips are replaced every other run. Not every clutch disc is the same compound of material. Yes they will mix some old with new depending on what Jimbo wants. Crew Chief. Guy with red hair/Beard is Jesse he is the car chief. he oversee the engine rebuild after each run. The pos Gs are not the killer. It is the Neg Gs at the end when chute is pulled that is what can end a driver. It can detach a retna in a eye. Thank you Clay and Crew. The Peoples Team for sure. Thank you Steve and Val for sharing your small vacation with us

This is one of the most informative videos I’ve seen for casual observers of fuel racing I’ve ever seen! Heck after going to and watching fuel drag racing for near 50 years, I learned a couple things. Very well done! And, if you watched this and you aren’t a Clay Millican fan, please consider attending an NHRA National and experiencing Nitro racing in person. TV and Video doesn’t do it justice and the southern gentleman you see here is the same guy you’ll meet in the pits! Great job all!

    I have seen Clay in many vids. He is a people pleaser. Such a wonderful guy.

    The thing I really love about Steve and Kevin and Lutz they tell you what they are doing. There no secrets. Steve isn’t going to tell you things that will hurt his business or others racing programs but how and the why is great. Clay is just gangster all around. Mirror, setting his clutch pedal all that he does. Old school hotrod race car driver.

    Clay Millican is One Bad Dude Steve, and it’s honestly unbelievable that you were allowed access to that stuff! But you’re a Bad Dude also! Never forget!

    It just shows we never stop learning even Steve Morris with his lifetime of knowledge on engines and racing. Incredible video! ❤❤❤

    Thank you Steve for this experience. It's a very rare privilege to see what goes on inside the pit with this level of racing. I was allowed in 1981( ? ) in Salt Lake to spend time like this with Shirley Muldowny, and boy how things have progressed! Thank you again, because as much as I Love John, Clay is my favorite driver ever!!!! I've met several, but Clay by far, is my favorite

    I love that I’ve been watching clay and Keven for a couple of years now and I’m still learning stuff in this video!

    Yep, that's just a small handful of reasons why I left Michigan 22 years ago! After the automotive industry died, so did Michigan!
    I still love Mid Michigan Motorplex, that was a beautiful facility! U.S. 131 looks like it's been redone since I was there years ago, so much nicer now than it was then, but that's where I cut my teeth on drag racing.
    Awesome video Steve, answered a bunch of questions I've always had about Top Fuel racing. 👍💪
    Thank you Clay for spending time and sharing with the rest of us, you are a great ambassador for the sport! 👍💪
