Keep your heads up. Things will get better. Stay safe and happy motoring.

[@waterlooboy]

Good video, Mandee even for being fashionably late! To bad the engine broke while running good! That’s racing!

[@1963luckyt]

That's unfortunate. Sorry. Team 35, you work so hard. And we do appreciate it. Best wishes for the upcoming races 🏁.

[@dirttrackuntold]

We really appreciate your support!

[@kennethstitt6584]

There you go! A new sponsor! Mike says I needed a sharpie and had a dully! LMAO! He could be a good candidate for a sharpie commercial! Love you guys and enjoy watching!!

[@dirttrackuntold]

That unique sense of humor runs in the family 🤣

[@bernardfleming5867]

I know you guys have it. “Nut and Bolt” problems (motors too) can be a pain. Positive forward Movement, the only way to the next race. Go Mikey GO!

[@dirttrackuntold]

That’s right! We appreciate the support 😀

[@derekhamburg9398]

thats a big bummer keep your head up out there mike

[@The340king]

Check all the springs for clearance between coils. Each one has to have 0.010” of clearance between coil winds to keep the springs happy. It sure sounds like a bind issue.

[@dirttrackuntold]

Thanks for the tip!

[@The340king]

@dirttrackuntold you also need to check retainer to guide boss clearance. That could do it too,but that usually leaves evidence on the guide boss or seal. We typically do not seal the exhaust valve on race engines, so there may not be a seal there.

[@cathymcglasson6947]

Better late than never at least you made it. Better to work on the car and to make it fully ready than to have a fatal problem on the track so keep smiling 😊

When life gives crud make chocolate cake! Keep Orange Crushing It!

[@raymondwhitehead5819]

Sometimes, if you have friction in the wheels know when your question cushion, when you go racing in the corners, you know the ruts no, they will cause the universal to fail and when you put a lot of strain on that strain on the universal, that’s where you get the real you get a lot of them Where in tear wear and tear on the universal, so if you were, I meant you’re not putting that much weight on them but you’re hitting the ruts and I will start breaking. It usually takes a little while for the free universal brake course if you’ve been hitting some bad holes and stuff like that, go to the bill, break faster, but I’ll tell you we’ve had a vibration nine weeks ago cause we were down of cylinder head Oswego and I’m figuring ahead and yeah spark plugs breeze day off and a piston and if you get that inverter so your cars down on one cylinder your car is not the fastest Salter so but I think my drivers on the way out It’s only got a couple more years and then he’s gonna retire. I can’t name his name because it’ll Priya I don’t want to get banned from his team so we’ve changed everything on his race car universal radiator shocks and springs and all these big races really kill those are the pieces parts pieces and parts just letting you know

[@dirttrackuntold]

Thank you for sharing!

[@mikalthies8691]

Is that the oil lite that keeps coming on. Would start to lite up getting into the corners.

[@BriansHouseofHorsepower]

The clear light that you saw was the coolant pressure light. It will go on steady if the engine losses coolant pressure. Example would be a blown hose.

[@robertdement6015]

Love seeing little guy in thier getting his hands dirty

[@dirttrackuntold]

Yes, it is great to have young people getting into the sport!

[@jeffreypatton3321]

Hey Mandee that not dirt it's a special pepper Better luck next race

[@somethinburnin]

Maybe I shouldn't have made that tractor pulling joke...... Now you are having our luck.

[@dirttrackuntold]

No more jokes for you 😆

[@somethinburnin]

@@dirttrackuntold yah think!! Considering the jinx has been we haven't been out since 2018..... Hopefully next year. The new engine is beginning to be built.

[@nclancer9570]

"It's just how racing goes guys" is a very apt quote! Perhaps y'all have gotten the bad luck out of the way before the series races coming up...

[@dirttrackuntold]

Lets hope so 🤞🤞

[@ronnemire9522]

Mamdy who is the boy with the team, quite helpful

[@dirttrackuntold]

That is Brian’s son. He’s great help!

[@BriansHouseofHorsepower]

His name is Jackson.

[@allen8756]

Mike should stay with the 358, has a lot better luck.

[@dirttrackuntold]

Aww, what fun would that be? 😁

[@garyoakman6187]

Mandee that dirt in your food is added flavor.

[@dirttrackuntold]

The pizza logs are worth it 😁

You guys over the years certainly have had your share of driveline problems.

[@birdmanrobertlabodajr.3416]

Hey, make sure you guys take time to rest and receive healthier OK we had a rain storm up here attached it struck a swig. Oh it shook a Oswego Oswego anyway they had a big big small block modifieds Pigger’s Park modifies they had a big crash up here have the old one and the young one I’m talking about Bentley Warren and he’s gonna be driving the Purdy news 54 years ago. It’s gonna be driving it in the classics this afternoon and the this afternoon on Sunday, and then also the young one Doug heveron who is also here now he’s called the old one but he was a young one in 1980 and 81 so have a good night sleep everybody and be safe and I know that you guys are doing what you Gotta do and all this motor breaking I’m gonna say things happen. OK they happen all the time and keep your head held high as I know these things I think these things will break loose and you turn around and maybe one of those motors will be really great. You move forward and you win another race, keep your heads going. Oh I know that you’re going through a lot of motor issues and maybe you’ll have a break soon and now be safe everybody love what you guys do for the 35 and the 96 keep it going receive Mandee and Mike and Billy Junior
