Right Off the bat I give you one of my big secrets when welding up one of these 10,000 hp top fuel Dragster’s. Also I sneak peek at the inner structure to keep these cars from passing themselves up! Thanks for watching this series it’s been a lot of fun to make and hope you enjoy this as much as you did the other five!!!

Hello there. I've just recently subscribed and love your videos. I'm 57 and back in my younger years I was at the dragstrip often, (State Capitol Stageway in erwinville La. I didn't care what was racing,I was there. I haven't been in over 20 years, and I know the technology has grown in those years. I really love your videos, your in-depth instructions help me kinda keep up with things. To me there's only one thing sweeter than a top fuel or funny car running a pass down that 1/4 mile, but I won't get into that. The feeling in my chest when the throttle goes wide open, the smell of burning slicks and nitromethane burning my eyes. In my opinion I don't know which is the most fun, watching them race or walking the pit area watching the crews disassemble and reassemble an engine. Thank you sir for your time.

I wish I was 15 years younger, I used to be a senior master tech at a Ford dealership but I was temporarily forced to retire due to losing my leg. I would have absolutely loved to be a unpaid member of your team just to expand my knowledge, before being a tech I worked at a boat factory in the fabrication department, I operated cnc machinery and tig welded really thin aluminum. I progressed quickly from fab into the R&D department because of my skills in welding and understanding how to create better options to building a stronger boat. Only if I could have 15 back, damn.

Ha!. I rigged a old 50's-60's Oster handheld back massager to a plastic Folgers coffee can(with lid) for a very early and cheap electrosonic cleaner,,which jitters the hell out of the solution and parts. Works like a champ, Champ. Yep, suspended the whole gig off the table with bits of big surgical tubing. Adjustable to the speed and fury of cleaning. Works good for cleaning shooters brass as well. Solution gets dumped for walnut shells for polishing. Got tired of the chinacrap electro cleaners burning out in moments. This can be plugged on for days,,without a worry. I like your use ,,to stir the weld puddle,,,Aaand,,release tension, which was it's original design intention. Ingenious!!. I hope Sir Larry appreciates all that chassis lovein!!. Very nice work. Was wondering who's chassis that was.
