Soo Much Rubber! How I Remove Burnout Build Up on Goliath | Daddy Dave

[@ryankursehuston]

This is actually a pretty interesting video for people who don’t know he every day ins and outs of drag racing and the maintenance behind the cars 👍

[@kamarulazril2202]

Yes brother...i cannot see this in Malaysia..

[@jdshaw2751]

We spray our cars with cooking spray before each season and it helps a LOT! I also do mud racing and it really helps stuff there as well. Cleanups are hours less from using it in the mud!

[@rogerherring772]

I've done that too, also used wd40, silicone spray damn near anything laying around that's cheap and won't let stuff stick to it. Why waste money on purpose made chemicals. And most of the time it can be blown off with a air nozzle.

[@1982MCI]

A Teflon or silicone spray would probly work well also

[@littlelifters7543]

Concrete pump guys spray their whole machines with diesel for the same reason. A stitch in time saves nine.

[@FugginCoyote]

When I raced dirt bikes we would wipe them down with wd-40 after we sprayed them off, made cleanup A LOT easier

[@justinweidner3614]

I’ve always thought about this over the years. It’s nice to see some more of those behind the scenes things not many people think about

[@ericcarr1648]

That's something I've never thought of. That's crazy how much weight that can add over time. Thanks for the video, Dave.

[@Natesworld92]

I think I can speak from most of your fans that we loved this video. This is the behind the scenes that's cool to know I think I'm not alone in this Thanks dave

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

thank you so much, I have a lot more planned for you all :)

[@chrisstinson2018]

Spray the bottom of those panels with some Pledge furniture polish and most of it will scrape right off with a plastic bondo spreader. Even the thick stuff in the tubs

[@scraverX]

If you think a drag car gets a lot of rubber under it you should see an Australian competition Burnout car. Seen one of those guys clean the underside. Heat torch (one of those gas burners) and a paint scraper and it comes off in slabs.

[@LastcallRecovery]

Daddy Dave I’m a die hard ford guy but there’s something sexy about the Chevy 2. I’ve always took silicon spay on mine and let it dry good.

[@jasonhastings5538]

In dirt racing we used wd40 on the front of the car, wheel tubes and and other areas on the car! The clay would just fall right off with a lite tap!

[@billlevassiur5891]

A lot that goes on that does unseen and not thought of by the average person. Your attention is great. This is what sets your race operation apart from others. Stay safe in your travels. Merry Christmas to all of you.

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

thank you Bill, same to you

[@kipmcmillan2600]

Cheers Dave! These kind of videos are really great and actually fascinating for drag racing fans!

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

thank you Kip!

[@gregcissell345]

I know there a lot more parts to go around but on my bike I use a clear contact paper you can get at Walmart and about every 10 or so passes I just peel off and stick a new one on the bottom side of my rear fender it’s less messy .

[@matthewvarnam4302]

I just seen a video when you drove right around Ryan Martin the other day you was flying....Dave your car is looking better and it's even faster.

[@wademiyataki9221]

That’s what I like about Dave. Real down to earth guy. Doing what he needs to do to win. I think I remember seeing Dom do that as well.

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

thank you

[@jamesmarotta5650]

We used to cover the inside of the tubs with duct tape and just peel it off once it got clogged with rubber. Easy peasy!

[@vincentbenenati9272]

After you get the bulk off, WD-40 will take the rest off easily. Cleans the bars and panels like brand new again. It’s amazing how well it works on rubber/glue.

[@davesracingchannel9261]

[@ChunkiieCustomz]

This is why I like Dave. He’s a legit mechanic and racer not that the others are not I just like his adult normal attitude. So glad he is still racing

[@topseykretts251]

I bought a 69'Road Runner old super pro bracket car glass everything save for quarters and roof we got to the rear bumper it had so much rubber build up we ended up having to cut it off an I $#it you not it felt like it had 300lbs of rubber stuck to it took 3 of us to man handle it when cutting it off it was cracking and breaking an buckling from the weight as we where cutting.Guy was using it as a bracket car for almost 25years doubt he ever cleaned it out only if he had to or if a clump managed to fall out some how.

[@issacdaniels942]

The tires help a lot with the speed This is all possible because When a tire is lower in height it gives it a better chance to spin and that causes tire slip a way to fix this is to go as wide and tall as you can in the tires And that will help with acceleration and tire slip the tall the tire the less the tires and to spin and that’s good because it helps you get to top speed faster

[@brianlafollette7530]

Good to watch someone else work for a change.

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

Haha, we all gotta do it ;)

[@juansimon5802]

love ur new shop. need a crew guy? lol. Glad u got ur car fixed and are back racing. youve always been my fav. love that chevy

[@April-r8b]

We used to clean with kerosene and before we raced or did burnouts sprayed cooking spray on everything so it wouldn’t stick

[@fmerkl]

I use the same scraper ! only I use a heat gun just to warm the rubber up ! every 50-60 passes I get over 1/2 a 5 gallon bucket ! after scrapping I take a rag with soaked in Paint Gun cleaner ! Nasty stuff if it runs down you arm and gets to your arm pit but it cleans the under side of my car so it looks like it was new!! and I go threw a pile of rags !! but they burn really good!! LOL PS My car I built back in '96 and has over 3000 passes on it ! best Et 6.96@210mph

[@exit9mastertec7]

You getting better showing the world what you do brother good luck, cuz i know you had them fucked up days but your alive.... congrats

[@michaelrichetta638]

Meticulous type of needed maintenance, interesting little video not seen before, cool Dave thanks

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

Thanks Michael

[@derektaulbee2360]

I wonder if you could take like a circular brush that people use to detail and do the same thing on the end of a 2 speed drill. Just use the torch to harden the rubber then the drill to just throw it off. it would be less controlled and probably a little more messy but I feel like it would be much easier.

[@osmadyahmad2641]

Good luck to you daddy dave come back to no prep king 2022

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

thank you

[@Intimidator82]

I have about 15 years worth of rubber in my truck wheel wells. Could recycle the crumbs and almost make another set of slicks with the pieces shaved off over the course of a year

[@davidjohnson8474]

Dave have you ever thought about using Plasti Dip??Its a peal able paint that comes in a spray can and when its time to clean the rubber off you just pull the Plasti Dip and it comes off clean! No scraping and you can put it anywhere and doesnt hurt anything.It might make your life a lot easier and not so messy!!

[@timothygoodsell1446]

I use to spray a light coat of wd 40 so rubber won’t stick to it under fenders wells

[@williammurfin6354]

Dave, we used spray Mister sheen under and around the back of the car before playing. That seemed to work.

[@fredgillick3071]

Hey Dave, Damn, never thought that much rubber would be back there like that. When it comes to pounds. 12 pounds could cost you a lost. Great video. Take care and be safe.

[@Airplanefish]

I recommend once you get the rubber off then clean everything with Acetone and ceramic coat everything back there. Ot will make it much easier to remove the rubber. No more scrapping. Water thru your pressure washer will take it off. Even just regular water pressure will. Air pressure will also knock it off once ceramic coated. Areas you can't apply coating by hand just use spray ceramic coating.

[@tommykimble2405]

We need a walk around of that lightning!!!

[@philliptoole8360]

Never even thought about the rubber build up, does make a lot of weight over time, very cool Dave

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

Yeah, can add up to a lot!

[@Dracoool]

Watching you scrape all that rubber reminds me of me scraping ice and snow off truck when it snows...Greetings from northern Alberta Canada 👍

[@renegadestang]

Thats a nice looking lightning on the lift next to Goliath.

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

:)

[@DependableAutoTruck]

some racers spray pam on the underside like you cook with heard it works good

[@seastacker8582]

That’s wild. I always knew there was a lot of rubber but never thought it would add up to that much weight.

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

really adds up overtime

[@rileylawlor9129]

Video quality and sound is so much better Dave.

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

Thanks Riley

[@edwardnevarez5323]

Hey Dave if you spray the under Side with Pam before each race it will help it not too stick so much, just an idea

[@ramosel]

We used to do that in Trans Am/GT1… but the SCCA made us stop because the Pam was flammable. We found a dry silicon sliding glass door lube that worked just as well and didn’t burn.

[@edwardnevarez5323]

@Erik Hyndman cooking none stick spray

[@bobbyborba6460]

We use to try and cut as much of the rear bumper away on southwest tour cars so it would get rid of the air under the car. I wonder if you could do a carbon fill panel? Just a thought

[@DriveSafeDon]

I used to clean asphalt trailers the best way to take rubber off anything is emulsifier mixed with diesel fuel through a bug sprayer let sit 5 mins then pressure wash the undercarriage messy job but will get everything off perfectly you must remove tires emulsifier destroys rubber 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Hot water pressure washer works best

[@85gbody97]

Pledge helps it from sticking. A lot of guys that have street/strip cars that are borderline show cars will spray the sides of the lower quarter panels to stop it from sticking to the paint. What’s nice about pledge is a lil wax and grease remover on a rag will take it all off with ease but on the underside of the car I would worry about that but I bet it would make it so ya could just wipe it off damn near an stop a lot of it from even sticking

[@LineMUp321]

Watching the rubber getting scrapped off. Me: *oddly satisfying* 😌

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

I thought the same thing, watching is more fun than doing ;)

[@jarnosaarinen4583]

I reckon your number plate cutout on your rear bumper the shape of it acts like a funnel & sucks the rubber through it!

[@davesracingchannel9261]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6XJaHhumceepbs

[@danielklopotek9767]

Nice job, its nice to see the maintence that goes into the stuff that they dont really dont show.

[@artlsx10]

Could you use a vinyl wrap with a light adhesive, similar to the big head wall decals. You could easily remove and replace it. Probably more work than it's worth. Took you 15mins. Probably take longer just to reinstall new vinyl

[@kevingleason5434]

That's a painters scraper, very useful tool. Why not mount a go pro to the top of the rear axle housing looking back, record how it goes out during a burnout or two.

[@jd440]

Maybe Teflon coat things in the back of the car and the wheel wells to keep it from sticking to everything?

[@bryansmith5980]

When I raced, I hired my GF's kid to do the scraping. 20 bucks. Well worth it and got them interested in racing.

[@TinkerinOnIt]

Great video . I just hope they dont start calling ya mudflap dave . Just kidding . If you keep winning it wont matter what they say .Love what you been doing to Goliath.

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

Thank you Wayne!

[@tonygrissom8351]

Great Video perspective Dave. Enjoyed that!

[@Chuck_Carolina]

Had rubber issues on our race cars at a driving school I worked for (NASCAR). Obviously, you would not want to use a scraper on your paint job. We used GoJo hand cleaner on a rag. Buy the way, we never washed the cars with water like you might think - GoJo and glass cleaner. They were a rolling billboard for our business, so they were cleaned everyday by hand before they went up to pit road, or put on a trailer to go down the road.

[@G_RAThbun]

Good afternoon Dave, I always root for you guys when I see you on TV unfortunately I missed your Boise Idaho Firebird track race I found out about it today it was going on and I live 150 miles away. But the real reason for this comment is there is a scraper that people use taking decals off of their RVs I know I've done it. It's a heated scraper that may be something you would like to check into. Keep up the good racing. I'm the guy that sent you a picture of my Nova back in the day and it was ugly yellow

[@hanswilliams8510]

Try Dry Ice .. Big Fan from 🇦🇬

[@Thefabforums]

Have you ever thought about coating the under side with tire shine between cleanings. I have used it in the past and it seems to help.

[@DixieNormas]

I've had luck with cooking spray.

[@drewjackson4056]

Use sc1 its justa silicon spray

[@DixieNormas]

@@drewjackson4056 and 5x the price

[@johnlongaker7029]

Coat it with a ceramic coating. Won’t stop the build up but should make it easier to clean off. It’s expensive but lasts a long time.

[@th600mike3]

@@johnlongaker7029 there are some decent ceramic coatings that are cheap on amazon, just diy apply the underside. But In my opinion better off spraying some PTFE / Teflon (teflon is ptfe just dupont brand). That stuff works great on everything. Probably will have to spray more but one can should last a while.

[@donaldgminski8621]

Points to you, Dave for organizing your vids into Playlists. Thank you, VERY much.

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

Thanks Donald

[@tonykemper8896]

Love this kinda stuff! May seam trivial to some but I find that shit interesting. Thanks for posting and post more and I’ll keep watching liking and commenting

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

Thanks Tony, have plenty more coming!

[@ryry562000]

Those 5 in 1 paint scrapers are dangerous lol. We used them for tile work, 2 buddies I was working with were installing tile in a shower, dude was on a ladder and climbed down hitting the other dude on his forearm lacing him wide open. He ended up with 23 stitches. Moral of the story is that them things are sharp but work great for scraping stuff lol.

[@cainezeblaine]

I'm glad you have a youtube channel man. With all the muppets on youtube now, I have no interest in their latest....insert crap topic......This is my kind of channel from my kind of people

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

I appreciate that, just getting started ;)

[@pierrewhite5199]

Nice!! Keep them coming great to see this side of racing

[@Midwestmodifiedtoys]

Hey Dave, try fluid film we use it on snowblowers so snow doesnt stick. Works great. Thanks.

[@jasonhull5712]

Man.. I had no idea you had a channel. I gotta say. I have watched alot of street outlaws and I have always been rooting for you or Monza. (Monza only because he had a 70 Camaro and that's what I own and I am always wrenching on out my garage. But it's just a old muscle car) but mainly you and mostly due to your humble honest and confident character. After stumbling across your channel and learning a little more about you I am pleasantly surprised by just how humble you are as person. It's good to see good things happening to good people. I'm gonna have to subscribe sir. Also I enjoyed watching your Trans Am LS swap. Cheers Dave! 🍻🇺🇸✌

[@brandenhanna2510]

First love the vid

[@NightVisio9m]

You need to upload vids more often dave

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

Working on it :)

[@Thetequilashooter1]

Very informative video. Thanks! I had no idea that so much rubber accumulated under the car.

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

Thank you

[@cotycampbell4056]

Pump sprayer with 1 part rubbing alcohol and 3 parts baby oil works amazing!

[@gullreefclub]

I have never had a car with carbon fiber panels but that said my last full bodied car I was always scraping the rubber of the tubs, trunk pan/back of the bumper etc much like what Dave just did but I used oven cleaner, WD-40 and a putty knife and scraped the car 3 times a year. To help reduce the amount of time it took and rubber build up I gots some thin teflon coated sheets of plastic and used plastic rivets to attach it to my “trunk pan” panels and extended it to the bumper of my car as well as the wheelie bar tunnel. Additionally I Fabricobbled short extension (3”) for my wheel tubs

[@Bamaflashlight]

Have you tried steam pressure washing the rubber off with hot water from steam cleaning it

[@edwardnevarez5323]

Awwwww shit Dave done figured out how too do this KZbin shit, you go DADDY DAVE 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@wvXvxvXvw]

I used to spray mine with Pam spray. The rubber still built up but it fell off with hot water when I cleaned it.

[@davesracingchannel9261]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6XJaHhumceepbs

[@deegan727]

It’s like having a full-size spare under there, some assembly required though😂

[@jeffwinkleman9523]

I use Pam cooking spray on my mower deck, works great. Try it.

[@donshotrodgarage1717]

That's amazing 12 pounds of rubber. Cool Video I would have never thought about that!

[@DaddyDaveRacing]

thanks for the kind words

[@zekeandrews33]

just speculation but what if it falls off during a run could make it spin i would scrape wheel wells every race but who knows good video cool to see some one weigh the rubber I don't care what they say Daddy Dave is a cool guy

[@stevenvalverde3468]

Wish could have had a before removal weight and a post removal whole car weight

[@nateulpanzarella9154]

here is how we do it, put a a coat of wd 40 or some other thin film lubricant. then just pressure wash it off easy. you can also cut and mold window screen to area, and remove screen.

[@TakeAGuessWhatsNext]

Put the bolt back in and see if you get a half second faster.. Love the car Dave. I want a 67 myself just something about that car thats sits right with me

[@toddlamarr1553]

That’s an educational fact about racing that can make a difference on the car. Was that a lighting in the back ground?

[@pjhd99]

hey dave.. check out dryice blasting it you will be amazed you can clean every inch of your sweet ride....it's the cleanest clean there is period...

[@williamfurlan9176]

I feel like this is Dave's intro into car down-blousing.

[@robertlutz1978]

Dave, dry ice blasting would be ideal for getting all that rubber off without damaging any surface, even painted body.

[@rudyhollis6540]

Spray Pam cooking oil and use masking tape on the flat areas and change the tape every couple weeks

[@Degenerate124]

Wonder if you could spray something in it that keeps the rubber from sticking to it. Like some kind of oil or something. It’s all behind the tires so wouldn’t have to worry about that. Do a thin coat to where it don’t drip on the ground but enough to keep the rubber from sticking.

[@philipmazzuca2269]

What about tear off sheets on the panels? Like my old MX goggles

[@earl9376]

Great video. i agree it is nice to see some behind the scenes stuff going on. i just subscribed to your channel to see more. Thank you so much. Good luck on the streets.
