Is it just me or Big Will reminds me of my dad. He passed away a few years ago but , it makes me smile seeing him with the boys at the drag setup. The memories of my dad and I staging beside each other at a small town 1/8th mile track will be with me for life. I love what you guys at SXSblog are putting out. Jeff from western Pennsylvania

It's too fast for that cage. Need to build that thing to NHRA standards and protect Doug properly.

[@jimliana5101]

Totally agree. They need to fix it before Doug gets hurt.

[@jk01red]

Thought the same thing! And running 1/4s on and 1/8 mile track is sketchy!

[@Wildturkey10121]

I was wondering about that as well. The tubing seems a lot larger than normal but I can't remember the wall thickness of it.

[@jokerman89]

I thought the same, it's absolutely time to put a new cage in it. Mid 8's in this is crazy and would probably mean the difference between life and death if it would go into the wall, flipping at 100 mph+ Get it certified for 7.50s!

What do you do when Battle Dad says, "the day isn't over. You need to make another run"? You make another run. Ha ha. I love it. It's always great seeing him and other family members in the video. I've never seen him without a smile on his face.

[@tianjohan4633]

Can you make a double walled ice box? It would work like a thermos if you find a way to pull vacuum between layers. No more condensation and no dripping on the track. Don't get dispirited, J2Z is a proper custom race car, all racers got temper. You will get it dialed in before long.

[@trentrouse5991]

You guys should have 2 sets of coilovers for it one for sand drags one for street drag I dont know if that will fully solve the issue but I feel like Shock Therapy might have an idea

[@dylanduff9645]

Definitely

[@wrkunst]

It's not really possible to get the spring rate they need with the length of the spring and the travel of the suspension.

[@mechanicalking]

Sometimes when you turn it down it don't weight transfer as much to the rear and spins.

[@jerrybaldwin7543]

HELL YEAH BROTHER live action with the SXSBL0G GUYS let's go 💪

[@600wheel]

Hey brother just a piece of friendly advice I noticed you start your burn out in the water box I think it might be better if you roll through the water box that way you don’t get so much water on your tires and don’t spray it up into your fender wells where it could be dripping back down on your launch

[@600wheel]

Edit: also I know this is easier said than done but when you’re breaking traction and you lift to regain traction try and teach yourself to only lift a little bit so you don’t hit the blow off valve and dump all your boost these are all things I learned the hard way so I hope maybe they help a little bit. Good luck guys that machine is second to nothing and when I see you post a video about it I get a beer or six kick up my feet and enjoy the hell out of it. Thanx man

[@KyleS.Outdoors]

2JP is a ripper! Please go 7’s, “please, please it’s me!”

[@TommyUhlman]

Love the last bit with the shot of Doug and the banana in 2jp. Bananas like you gotta be kidding. That’s all you got. Lol. Love 2jp.

[@andrewcable4979]

@SXS blog I feel like they way the suspension is setup in the back not having a straight axle when the tires crack off the start it cambers the tires and doesn’t leave all the tire on the ground Lifting the outside edge and making it more prone to spin not having as much contact patch on the ground

[@Towing417]

Don is a freaking legend!

[@kodiakkid3871]

I love how the nana is constantly looking not amused😂 doing a bad ass job with the vids🤘

[@seanpair1382]

That rear suspension need to be lined out big time. You guys get that fixed and it going to launch so much better

[@mustang0093]

On the launch, the suspension compresses to the point where the tires are cambered. Meaning less tire contacting the ground. Might be a part that’s affecting traction.

[@kenleppek]

Good test and tune session.... can't work out the bugs if you don't find them first.

[@luvman400]

You guys will get it I know its frustrating but you will get it!!!

KEEP EM COMING GUYS!🤙🤘🦅

[@dwainep6491]

Get rid of the drag radials and go to a bias ply slick they're much more forgiving and easier to hook up on a less prepped colder track. And yes you need a cage upgrade!

[@tipsytrippinrednecks]

Bloody awesome heck yeah have a great weekend cheers

[@Blusmbl]

Radial track prep is typically different (stickier) than slick tire prep. Sometimes Lapeer is radial prepped for some of Payso’s races but for the most part everything here is prepped for slicks. Maybe find a set of normal slicks for local stuff?

[@paleggett1897]

Love you guys. So glad to see your many successes. Being a speed nut, I have serious worries - approaching freaking... safety first is not an option. You need to seriously revisit the deadly scenarios you are creating with the Awesome JZ.your safety cage is woefully inadequate. Check with KSR at Indy if you go there. YOU need at least a 7.5sec cage standard.... if you run on a track, you need to meet and exceed the NHRA codes❤️ Hit that loud petal‼️‼️‼️ Bless Up❣️

[@billgoffors7695]

when they started this build did everyone think "OH MAN I CANT WAIT TILL ITS FINISHED ITS GONNA BE CRAZY" but then when it was finished everyone is like ok just another vehicle.

Two drops at the same time ingenious 👍

[@jerryewj3676]

I’m not a professional at those but wider radials may help and hit up shock therapy and see if they could help y’all out with a good medium between sand suspension and drag suspension

[@819CarAudio]

It might be time to get some beefed up doors and encage the front underneath. This thing is nuts! Love it!

[@christroutman4703]

Hahahaha! That end clip with the Senor Banana giving Doug the side eye.

[@codykidwell2980]

With the shortened wheel base you may need a taller a tire on the front to keep speed control down especially with the back picking up so much with speed and air and the notorious torque that 2js pull in the high end

[@brianevans5994]

Try a degree or 2 of positive camber in order to counter the negative camber created when it squats

[@offthebeatenpath5326]

this is what its all about with drag racing especially with track and dirt

[@jeffreyhopperton1354]

I cant wait to see you all at cleetus n cars in indy.

[@johnmattu7262]

IDK, I'm no crew chief for a funny car team... but it seems to me you need more tire. A few pairs of wider widths with the same roll out could sure save a track day. Overall a good day though, personal best, some data and no broken parts... overall, that's a win in my book. Great job, I love seeing this beast put in work. Just can't wait to see what it's actually capable of.

[@tomrose6292]

Usually at 140 mph at the 1/8 one starts adding WING for down force in a light car

[@chriscoldwell1313]

You guys should start using the parachutes because they can and will save you from bad accidents if something did happen. Just wanna give you guys a tip.

[@owencollins8505]

If those are radials you might need to change to slicks because radials need to be hit hard at the starting line and the suspension will rise up instead of squat.

[@offthebeatenpath5326]

1 thing cool about you guys is you show the good the bad and the ugly not alot of youtubers do that at least not successful ones

[@kylestewart8354]

In my opinion when you have a rail car that is mid engine. You dont need any squat in the rear. You need more tire. Cheese and crackers 👍

[@jamesuzzle3143]

Only problem I see is the slicks are radials if u heat them like slicks they get greasy as hell clean them off and that’s all for maximum traction the more smoke more heat less traction. Ide find some shorter wider slicks and they grow a lot more which will increase gear ratio as it gets down the track

[@TNRACER73]

Gotta put some Mickey Thompson Soft Sidewall Slicks on there and is it possible to get some squat out of it? The slicks would help the most.

[@707mobbin7]

Wholly f#@k that thing is so fkn fast its scary watching lol that run after they prepped the track that thing was flying bad ass I'm still watching video now great job bro bros. Bad ass video

Those small wannabe drag tires your running in the back is not gonna cut it when running over 1000 HP with only a 2 gear trans, in a rig that weigh less than half a honda civic from the 90`s.

[@cameronraymond2630]

A radial tire likes a stiff shock to help stick the tire off the leave you might try that just a suggestion

[@jasenworrell6214]

Going back to what I said with the water at 13:30 you kinda skipped the water which made it harder to start the spin but you left better not only from the tire pressure but there was heat in it that time

[@jasenworrell6214]

14:41 you can slightly see water on the side wall once the tires get to spin water comes down and ruin the launch When you start spinning in the water box you sling water every where and it drips and settles back on the tires path

[@jasenworrell6214]

25:07 no water practically and hits a wheelie I see a pattern but good job don and all on the adjustments I bet this is a great base line for what's to come
