The Road to Mustang part three - Inside Kelly Racing

[@ZedTee77]

This road to mustang series is by far the best of anything that has come out of the Supercars series in years. Keep up the good work!

[@Dazza_21]

Good to see a team owner spinning spanners and getting dirty

[@marksomerville1275]

Never seen Roly Poly Dane gettin' dirty ( oh yeah, only with the rules)...

[@Dazza_21]

@Gus Johnson hahaha yeah ok buddy 😂😂😂

@Gus Johnson yeah 2.0 turbo fwds are way more interesting than a V8 powered rwd racecar with no driver aids😒 GTFOH

[@arealassassin]

@@bhagvedsingh2147 Unfortunately the writing is on the wall. Observe the demise of the DTM- from beautiful singing V8s to poofy little whooshy turbo shitters. The eco-fucks have pushed their agenda to the detriment of ALL motorsport- little do they realise that the point of IC engine development is to make them orders of magnitude more efficient than the road-going versions... but since when did anyone with a fucking agenda to push care in the slightest about the facts... So yea; enjoy the real engines for now, because your kids or grsndkids will be cheering on little eco-cars, or 'leccy sewing machines, that's if they can even be bothered showing any interest in such a sanitized sport at all...

From a European racing nut, thanks for taking us along for the ride, Kelly Racing!

[@jamiekeeling2754]

Todd "Larry Perkins" Kelly, bring on 2020

[@MAZE0512]

Well done Kelly boy's, great insight into behind the scenes of one of Australia's premiere motorsport.

[@kiwioka51newzealand]

Lets hope your development for your engines are on track for Adelaide. Keep up the good work. I'm bareking for you to be there. Good luck

[@ianbertenshaw4350]

Ahh i love the smell of Ford horsepower in the morning ! Thats one sweet sounding noise you have there ! Thanks for the informative and educational video Todd ! I can only imagine how difficult it is to make a video like this without giving any secrets away ! If Larko ever bails out of the technical stuff for the television ( i hope not !) you got him covered !

[@imakethings17]

Absolutely fascinating insight into the work that goes into an engine program. I'm loving all the technical detail, and can't wait for the next installment! Between Rick's on-screen insights, and Tod's behind the scenes stuff here, I'm super impressed with your willingness to share technical info most other teams won't. You've won a fan here! Let's hope other teams take your lead and bring us fans along for the ride.

[@paulfrench6076]

As a ford fan...its great watching you guys prep your first new ford...i agree with other comments below....this series of building a V8 supercar from ground up far exceeds any other video ever been put out. Go team Kelly's

[@mickjones6509]

Welcome to the "Blue oval Family" hope we see you with the others in the top of the ladder in 2020

[@sparkdestroyer3184]

@Gus Johnson and Holden has never cheated?

[@natsts50]

Hey Todd, thanks for being so open with regards to engine/car development. Fantastic series of videos with great detail. V8 Supercar teams should all be this open to their fans, specifically the fans that care about the technical side of racing. Please keep it up.

[@rushmoore4307]

Great to see Todd on the spanners he obviously loves this stuff and that Ford engine sings a beautiful tune. Thanks Kelly gang these video's are awesome can't wait to see the Stang's on the track

[@jarnosaarinen4583]

Interesting to learn about the keyway lifters and the needle bearings for the camshaft!

[@OgamiItto70]

I thought it was interesting that they're using Ford Boss 302 (new-style) blocks. That roller cam and those keyway lifters were pretty interesting, too, though. Actually, I kind of wonder why they're not using a Coyote variant. That Nissan they used to run was a DOHC 4-valve. Why do they have to make do with a 2-valve pushrod motor?

[@966Mako]

It's great you are getting people emotionally invested in your car. We'll have a sense of belonging, watching the beast coming together. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@koolkar55]

This just shows people that you just don't go buy a Mustang & go racing like the old days. Thanks for sharing the road to victory.

[@foolishgerry2862]

I shouldn't be surprised that Saliba's are still leading the way in race engine machining. I've just seen the photo's of Heimgartner's Ned Whisky Mustang, and I have to say it looks awesome. This will be the best looking car on the 2020 grid. I hope to see both Kelly Racing Mustangs on the podium in 2020. Go getm lads !

[@tomhamilton9140]

Great to watch the stages of development. Thank you for sharing it with us. Go Ford.

[@Jackielegs616]

Absolutely loving this series gang. Can't wait to see the beasts on track!

[@bradenmckay9576]

Great work guys and thanks for taking us along for the ride!

[@jamielightsparks1154]

This has been an awesome series to watch, great video footage of the build and reminiscent of sealing up some of the rally cars I have been involved in building here in the UK. For the 1st time in my V8 Supercars long term support I will genuinely be cheering Kelly Racing. I really think they are going to be in serious contention this year. Great to see you guys behind the Mustang brand

[@grahamnoel48]

Thanks for this Todd. A most informative video clip.

[@jeffjenkins8303]

Thanks for another great video. It is giving me a greater appreciation of the intricacies in the development of a Supercar. Already looking forward to seeing your team racing the Mustangs next year. Great to hear how your team has been welcomed into the Ford family.

[@rockbiterhd]

Looking good there is hell of a lot work we all don’t know about thanks for the education go the Mustang

[@RoMiTouring]

Loving this series.. you've won a fan!

[@sunnygxracer]

Far more interesting than the category itself .

[@dinosshed]

The throttle plates in that position will give better response, tricky part is avoiding the backfires when the pit lane limiter is on. Best to kill two cylinders constantly than individually or you might flame that intake and stall. Also found a roughing on the short radius will improve respose and limits reverberation below the torque band. Looking pretty good

[@davidcashin9194]

I love the fact that you are actually showing the development path please keep it going.

[@collinblack8474]

Welcome to the ford family. Thank you for sharing of what goes on in developing a race car. I hope your team have a good and competitive season in 2020.

[@grahamserle7930]

Another great Kelly Racing video well explained Todd and I wouldn't be telling people what trumpet sizes work the best either lol...ps hope you guys can do a mad thrash and be on the grid for the start of the season...Merry Christmas guys...

[@Mazvimbakupa]

Great video. Absolutely loving the insight, more of these videos please.

[@darrenking3187]

Congratulations Todd, I’ve been a long time Ford supporter (and I have the tattoo to prove it). This series has been the best way to encourage new followers to your team and your new manufacturer and I’m included, not just because of which company you are switching to but because of your hands on explanations. I certainly will be following your team’s progress next season. I wish your team the very best of luck! #blueoval4life. P.s. I subscribed at episode 1 of this series..

[@paulhole6953]

Cheers Todd great insight👍Really enjoying watching!

[@johnpaull135]

Hey Tod thanks for the update I am loving the technical info and am amazed and impressed buy your set up and the quality work you put into each and every part. It great that you are doing such a deep dive into what makes up these engines and cars as I am sure a lot of people out there have no appreciation for the behind the scenes stuff. They just watch thr aces and probably think these are pretty basic V8s with over the counter bits to make them go. So please keep up this level of detail it fantastic. Owe and you have definitely picked up a new fan. Jp

[@brettr]

Great technical video! Keep them coming.

[@idr017]

Great to see such a hands on owner....cudos

[@stevenmelling6068]

Thanks great insight. Clear information from someone that's knows what he is talking about.

[@7071t6]

I wonder how much turbulence is inside the intake with the various runners, after all on a dyno is one thing, but when you have 160 miles per hour air coming into the air intake, that's a totaly different configuration and also the outside temps are going to make a totaly different HP, but your right if you can make the right amount of HP right through the max rev range and gears set to each track then you have a quick race car is all the settings are spot on for each track and now you have a totaly different set up to the nissan, its going to be a lot of testing on tracks and then hope for the best during the race, tyres are going to be a big issue and also the cars totaly aero and downforce front and rear. good luck to the kelly race team kick some buts out there. cheers and go Holden. :) PS if there's a problem with the intake i hope you will make a system which lets you take it off and replace one in less than 30 minutes. :)

What blows me away is 8 ITB's

[@jamesgargan4679]

Love the part about the trumpets are they something that’s you are aloud to change from track to track as well like a technical street circuit you might use something longer and say like Bathurst with the very long straights where you might want abit more top end go shorter ? Amd even the difference between drivers styles and what suits their different technics Or once your picked a length and and it’s been commissioned for racing is that it that length has to stay with that engine ? I love all that small little technical part of engines it’s all about the 1% gains here and there 🤟🏻👌🏻

[@KellyGroveRacing]

The trumpet length changes from track to track mainly to compensate for different temperatures that can change the positioning of the power curve!

[@Gasinduced]

Would you change trumpet lengths for different tracks? Like shorter ones for Bathurst and longer for Winton?

[@KellyGroveRacing]

Yes the trumpet length changes for different tracks and to compensate for different climates! Eg. you run different lengths for cold vs hot tracks and long straights vs short straights

[@Gasinduced]

Kelly Racing thanks! You guys and gals spare running a great channel :)

[@phantomwalker8251]

@@KellyGroveRacing how good are the heads you have to use.?.regardless of that,if your governed by specs,,the last bathurst race was 1989..i dont watch anymore,my brother calls it the great taxi race,,all the same..you should be governed by size,,not specs..plus,i gave up when holden had to win at all cost.legal or otherwise..

12.0-12.7-ish, are those the AFRs? Any reason, why is gasoline used on the dyno instead of E85? BTW, loving the in-depth technical look, and all the other insider tidbits!
