This video is ultra-unique for us in that we filmed and edited the Lime Rock portion…. 5 hours ago. We’re STILL AT Lime Rock, and one of us is still racing. Ben L pulled an all nighter editing footage we shot earlier this week and today into the video you’re watching now, so if it sucks… that’s why we don’t do day-of edits. Polish takes time and we didn’t have it this week, but we didn’t want to miss a video. Hope you enjoy!

Reminder that if you’re rebuilding a 4g63 after lifting the head, always check your main bearing clearances with plastigauge… If there’s even a mm of movement on the crank, you’ll crankwalk and blow your motor. You didn’t show Mark checking clearances last week so I was worried…

Just a note since a lot of people are asking: if your car is overheating like this, turning it off is a great way to warp the head and damage the engine. Ben kept driving to try and get air flow across the rad and keep water circulating through the engine. He didn't know the hose had popped off and released ALL the coolant.
@happytadaa2 ай бұрын
Also keeping it running without not knowing what the problem is, is a great way to cause even more damage!

That's literally the dumbest thing I've ever heard. If your car overheats get it shut off as soon as possible unless you're on the freeway pulling a hill and know that hill is about to end and you can coast. Like experience that its fine. He shouldn't have been driving it after the overheating started the first time. Better yet do your 2 laps get a time and stop. Don't come in then go back out knowing it's overheating.
@typedrew2 ай бұрын
If you visibly see coolant spray across your window. Solid bet you’ve lost some if not all your coolant. Turn it off as soon as safely possible
@litreocola64472 ай бұрын
Might be obvious but when you sealed the engine bay, could you have potentially over-restricted OEM engine bay outlets underneath or beside the engine for heat to escape? Maybe the air within the engine bay needs to feed behind the front tires at the back of the fenders to see cooling performance improve instead of just exiting underneath the car or through the hood

I think it'd be super interesting and beneficial to do some underhood aero testing. Like, either do it moving or stationary with perhaps dyno fans, but use fog machines of some sort and maybe gopros and lighting in the engine bay (which I'm sure yall have) and see where the fog sits. You could try using yarn tufts (or similar) taped to everything to show the movement of air as well, could show things better/worse or differently than the fog, or might help solidify results. Running the car with standalone temperature sensors of some sort in different places would tell you a lot, I think. It'd be great to see the high and low pressure areas in the engine bay, and you could use cardboard to attempt to figure out the best balance of removing lift and keeping the car as cool as possible. That'd have to make a great video, be super informative, and help you at the grid. Edit was great, regardless of the time crunch or not! Good luck Mark!
