You think it could be a grounding issue since you moved the coil packs?

This was my guess as well.

I was thinking the same thing, moved the packs and it is breaking up where it is. Maybe frame vibration is causing a micro disconnection.

Bruh he said leroy

[@waynebollentin989]

@DDAA most of the stick shift classes require stock type suspension. It's not Leroy anymore either that that point. Big tire doesn't fix everything either. Unless you been on a big tire. People don't understand how sketchy they get when you get off the throttle also. Car moves around much more. Even on a small slick you feel it over a drag radial because of the sidewall. It's much worse with a big slick. Not sure if he has or what type of anti roll bar he runs. A good bar with the right adjustments could help some possibly. When it comes down to it. Going this fast and faster and being on the edge like this is what makes small tire racing so much fun. He should try a set of good drag radials. May help believe it or not.

[@thomasnygard2246]

@@waynebollentin989 a sticky radial might help on the big end but on hit it might be too much and break stuff like the torque tube or input shaft but the quest to go fast is not cheap

James: left it down there with a for sale sign

[@zeropointzero]

Congrats to the win Cleetus. Still blown away by those shifts. James, you're a pro, both in your skill and demeanor. Amazing all round. Guys, scope the crank and cam sensors on Leroy. Check for crank end play too. Twist and shield the signal wires. Hall effect sensors are very high impedance and will pick up interference from everything, including those long coil wires.

[@nathanmoss8481]

Congrats! This was a big moment for yourself and me as a viewer. I started watching your channel when you got Leroy as a project, and have been stuck ever since. Awesome to see this happen!

[@LarryTCable]

You gotta have balls to keep it floored going sideways at 150+ mph.

[@Cekmore]

That's actually how you don't die... letting off too fast or braking can drastically change the physics causing body roll and other unexpected nasty things... 🍻

[@CCDVIDEO]

cekmore Gato agree with you on this

[@waynebollentin989]

@@Cekmore exactly, couldn't agree more bro. You see may guys wreck just because of doing just those things. There's a difference between a drag radial and slick also when you get off the throttle. The slick moves around a lot more because of the side wall. I've always loved small tire racing. Never ran anything bigger then 10.5 tire and been 1.09 to the 60ft. The balance between blowing the tires and sticking the tire is razor thin to make a quick efficient pass. At any moment it can go up in smoke and I mean that literally to lol..

[@freedomfox8183]

@@Cekmore exactly.. if the suspension unloads fully from brakes while going sideways like that he'd be straight into wall no chance to recover...

With all of the success you have been able to achieve without the extreme danger that comes with jet cars. IMO, I say sell it and tell the people you’re sorry it just wasn’t worth the risk. You’re an amazing young man with a super bright future.

Now James, drop the Nitrous stuff and get a turbo. you sound like your getting tired of it as well...

[@Nitedontdie]

@hunter childers Nitrous doesn't suck, his setup does. He doesn't have the budget CM does, so he's basically just doing what he can to get ahead. The diff in his car isn't great, and the rest of his running gear are basically just pick and purchase whenever he could afford to do so. His engine isn't designed to withstand a great deal of Nos, so he doesn't put that much through it. The other thing is, even if he went turbo or supercharger, he would still be facing the same issues. More power doesn't make things easier on what's essentially a horrible driveline. Edit: If he blew a head gasket on a low shot of nitrous, I can bet he would lift a head with the amount of pressure a turbo/supercharger would push through.

[@tylerschulz8844]

Jordan he’s said in the past he sprays like a 400 shot of nitrous. He knows what he’s doing. Just a lot of up keep to make a nitrous car fast and consistent.

Leroy's intake costs more than the 240s whole engine and he's between 5.0-5.3 Everytime I've seen him lately.. he'd benefit from a turbo way more with some changes..

Even a sheet of plywood on a 30 degree angle bolted to the front would help.

Lol first off congrats on your win at LS fest! That car can throw down wooo!! Second I love how serious Coop is on your channel 😆 I can just see the t-shirt now , says “ he ain’t messing around, you know the deal!” With cooper’s face outline, on the back says spaghetti . bog deep!

[@jeffgraham48]

Cleetus and Leroy bring home some more hardware! Hell yeah brother! Cleet banging those gears that was awesome! James breaks something he does it epic. 240 is fast though. Time for turbo?? Congrats thanks for bringing us along for the ride. ✌

Black c5: hey is Cleetus on the 2 step? Maybe I'll wait 10 to 20 more seconds just in case.

[@briangries1367]

I know right, that pisses me off when people do that. "I'll just sit at first light while cleetus heat soaks."

[@MarshalBeard]

With not even a 10th of a second away from a 7 second pass, i bet you the little bit of heat soak is why that wasnt a 7.

[@Mad.Man.Marine]

I think guys do it on purpose to let the heat out of the other guys tires and also heat soak the engine. It's a shit thing to do.

[@catchthemoose9797]

It's drag racing eliminations, people are trying to win. James deep staged against the guy he was racing probably to try and throw him off. Cleetus was the fastest stick car all weekend Jared is just trying to get any advantage he can. The second car has 7 seconds to stage after the first car stages, perfectly legal.

[@Anthovision]

@@catchthemoose9797 7 seconds to stage period or 7 seconds to start rolling forward to begin their stage?

[@kieronholden]

Crank trigger? Looks like RPM reading on dash is breaking up when it starts missing. Does it look stable on logs?

[@rudyrayaaw5138]

Good observation

[@mannys4539]

and the speedo looked way off

[@sireuchre]

But would the crank trigger have some way of dropping just one cylinder, and consistently so? I was also wondering if the 2 step could mis-trigger.

[@Anarchy522XD]

@@sireuchre yes if it stops sending information to the ecu it doesn't know where the crank is in revolution and fuel and ignition timing will be not ideal. The ecu is constantly changing shit and relies heavily on simple magnetic sensors that fail with heat and oil exposure. Edit : also vibration kills them too. If it's not spark and you have compression it would be fuel issues likely a fuel injector shit the bed.

[@zacwicht3189]

i think the screen maxes at 8k and Leroy is so beastly he goes over 8k ( dbz lore in Japanese " its over 8000" is said but in the English dub he says "its over 9000" )

I'm on PC now, and at least for Leroy's first run, when the view is from Cleetus' helmet cam, the subtitles said [music]. Pretty funny, the algorithm must think its metal. I can dig it.
