Do YOU Know About This Button?

It took Chris way to long to change a flat rally tire at LSPR. Find out the button he didn't know about that caused this disaster.

We ran into the exact same thing, not fully understanding how the tools you have work can really slow you down, we do a team building exercise with a stripped down Nascar car and see how we can improve the work changing the tires filling the tank and making small but effective changes to speed up the process and see what things are slowing team members down within their individual tasks.

Let’s go!!!

[@ChrisCyr965]

@@darknessrules3we are going to be doing more practice tire changes in a few weeks

[@darknessrules3]

@@ChrisCyr965 if you can have someone timing and recording so you can see areas for improvement 😉 good luck

[@soulshinobi]

Thanks for having the humility to share

[@endorphineguy]

Congrats on your pole position! You guys are the definition of rally drivers, mental toughness of doing whatever it takes to win. If I come to USA here from Europe I am definitely visiting you guys, I want to become a rally driver as well when I grow up 😂

[@ChrisCyr965]

I’m hoping to show all the behind the scenes lessons from rally. Follow along and hopefully see you on the stages

[@JBLewis]

Oh that's unfortunate! It's a great learning event to share! Know your tools Practice those tire changes You also might want to look for a "flank drive" style impact socket. These have a modified hex shape that engages the nut on the faces, rather than at the corners, I find them to be less "sticky". It seemed like you had a couple of lug nuts get jammed up in the socket.

[@Teamoneilrally]

Thank you for the info. we'll have to check that out.

[@ChrisCyr965]

Yeah I need more practice for sure. Thanks for watching

[@marcmigneault8364]

When lug nuts are stuck in your socket, just screw it back on a bit and wiggle you gun left to right and up and down. Much faster. Keep up the good work!

[@Teamoneilrally]

That's a great tip, thanks!

[@ianfairbanks1318]

alright, i'll sub. godspeed

[@ChrisCyr965]

Thank you!

[@dB_944]

I’m team Teal, so I can’t relate. 😊👍 I would have thrown it into the woods.

[@ChrisCyr965]

That is what I have for at home tools too. I looked at my Mikita impact and it has the button too 🤯

[@dB_944]

@ mine does, too, but I know what it does. Wink-wink.

[@ifell3]

Gutted, but it did look like there's another level next to it, boss mode ^^

[@ChrisCyr965]

Thanks for watching

[@hankenstein12]

Hear me out. Rally car on air suspension and you carry only air tools. Plug your air tools into your tanks and turn on the compressor and bam. You’re going. Lower it down when you’re on tarmac, lift it up on a bumpy road, dial it in for a jump. I’m a genius

[@Teamoneilrally]

@@hankenstein12 Whoa

[@ChrisCyr965]

Not the craziest thing in rally right now

[@ALMX5DP]

I had no idea some impact guns now have variable torque settings. Mine is an old craftsman but it’s always on full ugga duggas.

[@ChrisCyr965]

I’m like…who wants partial uggas?

[@ALMX5DP]

@@ChrisCyr965 right? If I want less, i just hold down the trigger for less time. I'm sure the variable ugga dugga approach is beneficial in some industries but hopefully they'll continue to make basic single power ones that are just basic to use.

[@zackkragel]

What hubs do you guys run to make the fiesta 5 lug?!

[@ALMX5DP]

Chris may have the actual correct answer, but they could be Focus hubs or potentially custom billet units perhaps.

[@zackkragel]

@ that’s what I was thinking but I’d love to get 5 lug lol. Make wheel selection 10x easier

[@williwonti]

Was this tool added because it was 'better' but you never got any practice with it? That's the real failure. Newer isn't always better

[@ChrisCyr965]

No it was a tool I used multiple times including in Ohio and Pennsylvania when I crashed off the road and lifted my car back on the road with my jack and impact. Just always on setting 3 until it wasn’t 💀

[@deathcore420]

Why not level 4 tho?

[@automotiveadhdpodcast]

The 4th setting you’re seeing on that particular Milwaukee is a type of automatic removal function. It basically hits it with a bunch of speed before automatically slowing down when it senses that the nut has broken loose. The result is you can back the nut off in a controlled way without flinging it across the ground. In this case it wouldn’t have helped him.

[@ChrisCyr965]

I didn’t know what that 4th button was for… thanks @automotiveadhdpodcast…what else can you teach me?

[@christenwhite1786]

GR COROLLA WILL IT RALLY?!?
