​@@pw383426 honestly as soon as he ditched the jet car idea and said he wanted to make mullet really fast I knew he'd end up here. I knew the powerglide wasn't gonna work. Mullet is too heavy and even built to the tits a powerglide just won't hang with that much power and weight at the same time. And I knew the ls had to go because let's face it. These guys don't have time to tear down an engine and inspect every single part to the finest detail after every outing. They have a fleet of badass cars not to mention the crown vics. A racetrack, events, traveling, a few businesses and a KZbin channel... I'm sure if they wanted to they could run a competitive ls program but instead they weighed the options and here we are.

It seems like yesterday Cleet forgot to put gear oil in his gear vendor overdrive as Mullet was making her long waited debut and now here we are pulling out all the stops finally introducing Mullet to that big block life.

Very cool statement. I feel the same way! **insert gif of man crying here**

[@robertbailey3057]

I have nothing but love for Texas Speed....however, when your trying to be a serious player on the drag strip you need an SM engine, proline, TKM, Musi Motor etc. Not to mention even these street outlaw guys are flying in personal tuners. Top them all off with a huge blower from procharger, or one of those indestructible precision turbos and your ready to roll. The obvious new kid on the block over the last year is that almost unbeatable procharged hemi combo that all the big dogs seem to be sporting. Very excited to see the sport continuing to progress. Drag racing purest won't like this statement, but I feel because of mainstream exposure through things like the Street Outlaws, and the KZbin platform Drag racing, automotive lifestyle, and powersports in general are at an all time best. I honestly feel this is the best time in history to be involved in the sport of drag racing. Be it as a local bracket racer or all the way up to those top fuel teams. Because of guys like Garret, PFI, Boosted boys, Street Racing Channel; The old man's garage, midwest Street cars automotive, sloppy mechanics, boosted lifestyle, MAK t.v and 187 customs people who might have never had the confidence to go pull a junkyard 500$ ls truck motor out, buy an Ebay whirly boy and build whatever it is they deem cool are getting involved and that's so awesome! We owe alot to these gentlemen who so graciously allow us into their personal lives, FOR FREE, and keep us entertained and give us a distraction from our everyday lives. When I was young we'd sit at a racers trailer in hopes of a glimpse, or if we were really lucky an autograph. This generation looks to these KZbin influences that same way. Only these guys are normal everyday people who typically had no Intentions of becoming famous. However, they put up with some of the creepiest and most outlandish behavior from some of these fans. People showing up at there homes uninvited. Or coming to their workplaces. I commend you gentleman for taking that stuff in stride. Thanks for the always exciting content gentlemen! You guys are quickly building yourself a respectable camp of rippers! (Especially with the addition of ol' Sam, Dr. Tunemall, LS George and not to mention all the unseen people that keep the machine running) Your guys' team dynamic compliments itself perfectly. I remember when it was just Garrett and Coop and James was added. I was concerned at first how he'd fit in. Now I feel like without James ol cleeturs racing program would not be as solid as it is. I'm not bashing Garret at all I'm just saying James brought things to a while new level with his vast knowledge, work ethic and humble attitude. It could be very easy for someone in James' position to get big headed and forgot what got him here. But, he seems as down to earth as ever. I wish nothing but the best for you gentlemen and pray for many continued blessings. In racing, and especially in life. Last thing....garret....when we gonna see some Lil cleeturs running around?

[@matthewmcmillan4941]

Absolutely agree. Trying to go 6’s with TSP isn’t the best idea. Look at TKM going incredibly fast with ls, sbf, anything. They don’t play. Realistically an Ls platform should be perfectly fine at 2000hp for a pretty decent amount of time. I mean the 1/8th mile record for hydraulic roller is still 4.12 et and that an easy 6 with a gear change. The fact is that mullet is incredibly heavy by almost 1000lbs. I love the fact that Ole Cleet isn’t trying to put it on TSP but there are absolutely better parts and companies. TSP just doesn’t need to be in the realm of the cars that he’s trying to be with.

[@robertbailey3057]

@matthewmcmillan cleetus already put the viewers in check when I guess people were commenting about them always breaking. He said it's not on the companies or builders. Cleetus seems to be a very stand up guy. His sponsors give him a lot of support, but he also gives them priceless advertising. Its crazy that nowadays 1000-1500 hp is the norm for a "street car" when i first got into drag racing the 1000hp mark was king shit. Now, all these late model muscle cars you buy off a showroom floor with 700+ hp, and with a little octane tweeking( ethanol and methanol tunes) and possibly changing up some pulleys or unlocking the ability to further tune a platform and you have a 1000hp daily driver. People don't realize how much demand these cars are under. Unfortunately, because of people like the McFarland team, people just think that running 8s is the norm. The only true purpose built car that was properly built for the strip is mullet. Even then that cars gotta weigh damn near 3000lbs and they are running it repeatedly in the scorching Florida heat at these track rentals as well as the heat and pressure built up from whinding a hot rod a quarter of a mile from 0 to 170+ in sub 8 seconds. Even with the ability to be able to seemingly have control of every aspect of the car with these incredibly complex tuning platforms sometimes shit just happens. Injectors hang open, gaskets blow, charge pipes get disconnected or cracked or God forbid a wastegate doesn't do its job. There's so much fuel and air when your on that level that the tiniest interruption of that can be catastrophic.

[@robertbailey3057]

I remember when they introduced James to the channel and i was apprehensive. Now, I don't think that racing program would be even half as good as it is now without James. Ol Cleet is a smart fella. He has strategically built an amazing team of complimentary individuals. He brought Dr. TUNEMALL on board to be his tuner, then the huge addition of good ol Sam and he's the cosmetic guy, top notch fab guys, James who wears many hats....master mechanic, experienced driver which gives them the ability to compete and make their mark in multiple classes, his boy Alec who busts his ass doing some of the less sexy stuff off camera that has to get done to keep the wheels in motion, LS George and his addition to the team was top notch and truly helped the channel step up another notch by furtherly injecting the non stop comedy and unintentionally added a super fun New piece of continous content with the blazer stuff. Not to mention Maddy TCB fulfilling all the logistical obligations. He'll, even their dude who transports for them is super solid.( Gentry & Sons) In my opinion it speaks volumes about Garret as a man, a boss and a creator. Its prettt much impossible to keep your employees productive, Happy and not complacent especially when your employees are your friends. Ive never once saw cleet so much give any of them a sideways look.Very rarely do you see a team like the McFarland crew were everyone always seems to be in good spirits but still working their asses off to keep up with the constant demand placed on them to do their specific task that they were brought on for in order to ensure everything runs at it'd greatest efficiency. People either get complacent, and refuse to produce the way they did when they were convincing you to hire them. People start to get resentful when they see how the fruits of their hard labor maybe benefitting the owners bank account a little more than theirs when the reason for that success was solely bc of their work and start thinking the grass is greenery and once that cancer starts to infest one worker at first that persons unpleasant attitude will start to slowly affect the whole team one by one then you have a civil war going on within the company and people taking sides and makes.coming to work dreadful until finally one day there's thr inevitable blow up. With this team the only person who had ever really departed was Coop and we see that they stayed on good terms and Coop had an opportunity and garret was super supportive for him to go have his own success after what he helped Garrett start. The same exact way Kyle, the founder of 1320, supportivelt et Garret start his own thinga after seeing how much everyone loved him after that viral video he did in front of Tom Baileys car when he introduced the world to the Cleetus McFarland charecter for the first time. Which we now know essentially birthed the automotive youtube space paving the way for people like ITSJUSTa6, PFI speed, Boosted boys, Adam LZ, vice grip garage, Street Racing Channel, boosted lifestyle ,young and boosted ,LS nasty. Garret has humbly helped start more than a few people or channels get recognition which in turn changed there lives forever. To often we see these KZbin channel teams putting out a 30 minute tell all video about why mommy and daddy broke up and that's why all of the sudden the person we are used to seeing is now ghosted. Garrets team continues to grow and attract more people. It's nice to see that a person who appears to be a genuinely good dude receive all of the things he deserves. Not to mention he is very smart. Often you see youtubers start to achieve a small bit of financial success and they start living a lifestyle like the money's always going to be there and don't realize it could all be gone in a minute. GARRET seems to reinvest his profits into things that will also continue bringing money in. Invested in the vics and look how many ppvs he's sold and events he's been able to throw. Invests in a purpose built racecar I'm mullet to increase viewership. Bought a home and shop instead of throwing money away by renting. Resurrected the Freedom Factory which will hopefully bring in money from events for Yeats to come also it gives him thr ability to not have to pay a track for his Cleetus n cars events in Florida. Not to mention he has that market cornered down there with the FF with all those Florida men needing something to do for entertainment lol. He has essentially paved the way for a whole community of gearheads and showed us endless ways we can still work in the automotive space and be happy and have fun rather than just going out and being a mechanic punching a clock working on soccer moms broke down vans at a dealership rather than getting to work on the cool stuff that grabbed our interest when we were just little boys. Cleetus and team....keep kicking ass and I hope you guys are enjoying the things you get to do as much as we love watching it. Never forget that some people derive their only happiness that day during the 20 or so minutes they are watching your guys' videos.

[@ziggybmw]

BEST MOVE EVER!!! Even before you said it a few weeks ago after an engine issue, I was saying out-loud that I think it needs a big block to really move forward with keeping it drag & drive capable while making it a 6 second car (truck lol?) Repeatedly and predictably. We all LOVE how you took that LS platform to its potential! Of course people will always say garbage like you didn't use a billet LS block, or why didn't you use such and such heads etc, but to all your fans and people who understand the level of competition you're in, it just makes no sense at all to keep pushing the same platform at 100% of its capability every time you're at an event or testing... while going with the tried and true big dog Steve Morris 540 you can make that same 2,000ish horsepower while only using like 60% of its potential! If it makes almost 900hp NA, then it's going to make almost 1,800hp at only 14.7(ish) pounds of boost!! You're possibilities are now endless with how fast Mullet can go! And now partnering with Steve Morris for all this makes it all that much better!! This is so awesome!!!!! HELL YA BROTHER!!!!!!

Missed the timelapses with cleet and Jackstand. Some nostalgia is always good

[@RYTHMICRIOT]

I was expecting Cleet to jump straight into the deep end with a SMX. This is probably a wiser choice. This much power is likely to introduce new problems elsewhere in the car. Traction was already an issue. We're also going to see how well the chassis handles the additional power. Exciting times.

[@alonsohasbani7894]

I thought on the same thing, would the body and parts hold those 3000 hp? or we will start to see how axles bends

[@RYTHMICRIOT]

@@alonsohasbani7894 Going to be interesting to see if the car goes down the track straight.

[@Innovaspeed]

This is not a full SMX. This is based on a Brodix block and typical aluminum heads with SME work done. Still a fantastic motor, but the SMX is full billet and can make upwards of almost 5k hp. Huge difference in cost.

[@RYTHMICRIOT]

@@Innovaspeed That's what I said. I said I was expecting him to go SMX but this is probably a wiser choice. I expect he's already going to have chassis problems with just the BBC. Hopefully he addresses these issues or he'll have a wall magnet.

[@waynebollentin989]

@@RYTHMICRIOT yes with this much power I’d want a double frame rail. I don’t remember what chassis he had build on but I believe it’s a 25.3 which is good until 6.50s. He could run mid 6s consistently np with this setup. Wouldn’t have to kill it from the hit but would have enough power to ramp it in just after the 60ft to make it easier on parts.

[@busarob1969]

As a engine guy and tuner, nothing frustrates you more than seeing some one flog a engine to death trying to squeeze more power than the engine can mechanically handle. Best thing that happened here in Australia was to stop trying to race our home grown Holden 5 Ltr v8, The rpm and hp required to be competitive in our v8 race cars was just far more than the block design could handle with out cracking around the mani journals . They then switch to 307 chev race blocks, with the appropriate rule changes. I was involved in one race teams engine shops and the frustration was real. Days of hard work, we would watched waste away on a engine dyno. Every one was happy once the Chevy blocks arrived , I mean we had been squeezing far more power out of these block for speedway engines for years , so we knew what was possible. So congrats on the steve Morris deal Garret and team . But there are still questions around chassis and traction, I mean just look at Sick seconds cars and the rear tyre wheel combo, This is what is required to put all that power to the ground . And your already struggling to put the power down, to go faster , your going to need to launch harder , get that power down sooner And traction is the issue, so I now watch in interest, the engine and gearbox is there! the diff? How is that going to handle the power Once the traction is sorted, will the diff or axles no be the next week link? Watching your videos it’s very clear your times are going to be traction limited …….. are we eventually going to see a much larger wheel and tyre combo ? More chassis work, more fab work to mullet? Or does the frustration watching Garret struggle with traction continue? Unloading and then the sudden loading of the drive line is bad for the engine and driveline. It causes shit to Break. Congrats on the new engine Cleetus and team. Is a major leap forward ….. Oh and I really hope you do something special with the Holden commodore Ute. It deserves more than to be just a burn out car , or half ass drag car.

I believe he has already said that Texas speed will always be there "small block go to guys". They are a great company and all the failures and problems really come back on themselves he said. They just don't offer the type of power that they are looking to throw at the Mullet.

[@philb5593]

@@roymcdavid1015 He already went away from them with Mullet’s LS. The 2,000 hp you can get from a TSP LSX ain’t enough for 6’s. The only thing that’s still TSP about that engine is the block and crank, the heads, rods, pistons, and valve train were put together by Fast Forward Race Engines. It all depends on how serious they get. 2,500 is enough for 6s, and unless they go super serious with small tire stuff, mid 6s is probably the max, especially for street cars. Big tire cars might be different.
