Testing New Chassis at Lucas Oil Speedway Episode 6

[@chuckielepsch612]

I am a new subscriber, and I am really impressed with the channel. The whole operation is absolutely meticulous and very first rate. Love showing behind the scenes at the garage as it’s one of the nicest facilities I’ve ever seen. Please keep up the great work I really enjoy the videos.

[@outlawracing4]

Thankyou for subscribing and watching. We just started these videos a few weeks ago and really having alot of fun with it. We feel like if its worth doing its worth doing right. And it doesnt cost much to keep things clean.

[@CDeese39]

The attention to detail on that car is really amazing like just little bits that show how much time and effort y’all put into it.

[@outlawracing4]

We call it “pride in our work” ❤️

Yes it is! ❤️

[@williambillwaynerobertson930]

I don't know if Marsh is still in business but they make an awesome light beadlock that is a polyurethane material we used for yrs breaking only 1 you can get different colors👍🇺🇸🏁

[@karterjackson4060]

One way to make the car lighter is lay off the chess burgers.

[@outlawracing4]

Lol karter you know them dirt burgers are good! HH

Thankyou!

Capital has a great crate car just struggling with supers

[@outlawracing4]

We have been in every chassis on the track seems like at one point or another lol

[@fancychance57]

nice piece as always..good luck this year.. where are your gloves fool?

[@outlawracing4]

Thankyou, honestly Tony cant stand wearing them. Likes to feel the wheel. He usually only wears them when required

[@lanceplant29x]

If you guys are using a GoPro invest in a few Windslayers! They make a huge difference!

[@outlawracing4]

Man that camera is a stupid canon vlog camera that is wicked awesome, until wind. I wish i would have used a different one for those shots. My bad.

[@lanceplant29x]

@@outlawracing4 all good!! They definitely shoot great quality video! And they offer a great external mic that kills the wind on those things too! Love the content tho!

[@outlawracing4]

Thankyou very much!

[@Dodger24]

5:22 You got a fresh air helmet, but no fresh air system hooked up to it? Kinda seems pointless not to have the system as well

[@outlawracing4]

This was testing, he was only out for 5 laps at a time. Didnt need fresh air for that

A2Z graphics. They specialize in racing stuff

[@taylorkannady7990]

Thank you.

[@samuelshadden2805]

Use paint and not vinyl for numbers and sponsors will cut some weight. And it's a uniform weight loss without percentage change

[@outlawracing4]

🏆🏆💪🏻

[@MrFridge6577]

Thoughts on the lightweight batteries? I know those xs's are nice but heavy??

[@outlawracing4]

We love em. Hard to beat

[@MrFridge6577]

@@outlawracing4 you asked about saving weight. Those are about 40ish pounds you could go to their Lithium stuff save about 25 pounds

[@outlawracing4]

Yeah that is true. To be honest we were just cutting up and joking about the weight thing. We are rarely very serious in any conversations we have hah

[@MrFridge6577]

Ah ok. Should have know😄

[@robbiemaupin]

Love these under car shots! Please don’t stop doing them. Foot pedal shots would be cool too!

[@outlawracing4]

Working on the feet shots. As far as under the car shots….. they are illegal unless at a practice or testing

[@Tireguy2023]

@@outlawracing4 oh wow. Really. Wonder why that is?

[@outlawracing4]

😂😂 math…

[@TheCrewChief374]

Well it definitely doesn't sound like you guys were truly being serious about the entire weight issue. Because what actually works, and has worked for as long as people have been racing automobiles is building the car so you can put weight in the correct areas of the car. That the weight will help the balance of the car get into the corners, as well as allowing you to get through the corners quicker, and get maximum traction off the corners. Since all your shocks essentially do is transfer what weight is available from one corner of the car to another. Yet if there is not enough weight to transfer the car will look like a feather floating along the racing surface, not getting near the traction you are needing in order to get into the corners faster than the next guy, and get more drive off the corners than the next guy. That is why I still believe in putting a car on scales, and tediously checking measurements against what your baseline setup numbers from the chassis builder are. Or what you find is what works for baseline setup numbers, which I know it works because none of the basics has changed. Which I was born to a dirt track racer, I have worked around racecar my entire life, and learned and still always learning from literally from some of the best racers regardless if it is dirt, pavement, drag racing, road racing, off road over 36 plus years of doing working around dirt track racing. It is also helpful to not have a driver and crew who are beaten before they even make a lap because they over think what they need to do to the car.

[@outlawracing4]

We basically joke 24/7. Lol the entire weight thing was a joke. Lol

[@TheCrewChief374]

@@outlawracing4 Well that is what I was figuring was going on.

[@Straitliner]

Was showing my son in law who is a truck driver your truck and we were wondering if you knew how long your tractor/trailer is?

[@outlawracing4]

Hahah its “just long enough” lol these rigs are huge and heavy. Ill ask the crew and see if i can get you an exact number

[@Straitliner]

@@outlawracing4 Thanks also thanks for posting another cool video. Feger and yourself are 2 of the best accounts to follow on You tube.

[@outlawracing4]

Man that means so much to hear! We are only 3 weeks into this so we are learning alot! Also, the crew is going to film measuring the rig for you!

[@johnhale9892]

Make the car lighter by using lighter weight engine oil, lighter weight tranny oil, and lighter weight gear oil. 😅😂. Diet methanol may reduce at least 30 lbs. It's worth a shot. 😂 Love the camera angles and clean operation you all have there. Hope to see you race. Do you have a schedule of where and when you will be racing?

[@outlawracing4]

Such great suggestions! Lol thanks alot. Were trying hard to give a fresh look to racing content. Not really a set schedule, we bounce around alot. But if you are on facebook we have an “outlaw racing” page there we will update when we are going somewhere. You can also follow “tony jackson jr racing” for updates as well

[@chrisdody5867]

Titanium! Shorten your bolts to just one or two threads beyond the nuts. Use half nuts instead of full. Even on steel heims use titanium jams. I ran aluminum lug nuts. Looks like your new car has more bars at the front of the cage at driver compartment loose one or two and spread them out. Look at chassis gussets see where they can be nibbled or drilled. Salina Engine did a motor for me. They milled 54 lbs out of a stock cast block. And there programs now that make it cheaper and easier. Lighter steering wheels available. Not at all familiar with your rules. I come out of sprint cars and drag racing. The helium is the best idea! Try this one. For the Chili Bowl we used titanium coil springs on one of our cars. You are fighting one ounce at a time.

[@outlawracing4]

Omg i wish you were standing there when we were having that talk! You would have fit right in! Hah i like the shorten the bolts a thread or two 😂😂

[@sauljurkunas2905]

Go look at a sprint car for going lighter. That's a race car, not a taxi cab..lol

[@joshpitts7256]

🤦🏻‍♂️

[@outlawracing4]

😂😂

[@dirtnbeer]

Many years ago my buddy worked on a very successful WoO team. I remember he told me once they drilled the center out of almost every bolt. I’m sure that’s common practice now.

[@rossgettys7037]

Where are your driving gloves? Yes you have better feel with no gloves, but is it worth losing your hands? Ask Doug Wolfgang.

[@outlawracing4]

He doesn’t wear them for better feel like you said.

[@patfoley5092]

No gloves?

[@outlawracing4]

🤷🏻‍♂️ Driver cant stand them, lol only wears them when required normally

[@jimmyjolly4184]

Make a carbon fiber chassis

[@outlawracing4]

Ohh thats a good one! Lol

All the money in the world and the man don’t wear fire resistant gloves. SMH. Stay safe bud.

Almost impossible to take a tear off, off with gloves on.

[@jimjohn5348]

Wait y'all show under the back of the car I thought that was a big no no and a sin in dirt late model racein I mean I know that no matter how your setup is doesn't mean it would work for other drivers, I've always thought it was STUPID for people to act like it was a big deal for other teams to see your setup

[@outlawracing4]

We agree, only thing we really watch out for is shocks. Other than that….. theres alot of fish in the sea lol this was also a test session on a brand new chassis, if it was a feature night for big money and we thought we had the set up, probably would think twice
