The Wagon CRUSHED the Competition on our First Race Back!

[@jasonbernal9348]

Love how in love you are with Val and it shows. Congrats on winning in life and at the track!

[@FastSS02]

I hadn't met Val until Friday at the track. She is so sweet and wonderful! I wish I could find a wife like her! Can't wait to see her Camaro done!

[@doren8491]

I sincerely appreciate the "family" dynamic you, your wife and son Kyle have going here. You're blessed.

[@stevemorrisracing]

I appreciate that

[@korzer]

Impressive to see you getting right back on the horse and riding it like that Steve, what a way to come back, well done to you and everyone who made this possible !

[@pete1208]

Damn, Steve's out there shaking down the new build while also winning the event. Talk about shake'n'bake baby!

[@jamesfrost5261]

Congratulations on the win. That really sucks for Clark and Tom, two really great guys.

[@__KNOX__]

Not only do I Love the tech talk with Steve, but I Really Adore seeing the Family together doing something they love, working together for one goal. I like to see that. The editing and production is amazing too. This channel will thrive n it should. Nothing but love guys!!

[@Mike-mm2bt]

Absolutely fantastic job Steve

[@tomcoon9038]

Dude! Perhaps I just never noticed b4 but...Seeing your wife out ALSO bustin her butt to help brings a smile to my face. You got a good one! Since the Sugar Momma car and now the Camaro being built, my eyes are noticing how much she's there and works. Do you really have any idea on how lucky you are to have a sweetheart that has your back and props you up? You should. A real winner of a family! You're living the dream.

[@stevemorrisracing]

Yes sir 😁

[@CGT80]

I don't think she was in the videos before........I would have noticed a woman hanging around. Not only is she easy on the eyes, but she is into racing and cars and is helping him. The dynamic with Kyle (spelling) also doing videos and the family thing is great. I love the Kyle videos and wish I was as lucky as Steve and could find a partner in life. I'm glad she is part of the show now. This is the real reality TV, showing the real thing, as much as they want to share, vs. the made up drama of tv that leaves out so much and instead repeats the same stuff over and over. Show us the good, bad, and random different parts instead tv shows that skip the everyday things....how do gold miners get supplies, where do they stay, how do they feed a site full of people, or deal with holding tanks from a bunch of RV's? KZbinrs are far more transparent.

[@MikeY77z28]

Steve.Congrats on getting the wagon back on the track.BTY those removable quarters are sweet.

[@jacoblawless8619]

Steve, I love the fact that you leave in the little bloopers. You've clearly become a master of engines/race cars proof being the wagon and countless other cars that take advantage of your platform and experience. The little video bloopers just show your dedication to mastering another craft and making these videos even better.

[@thor82ak]

Man, what a bummer for Tom and Clark. Hope they're okay.

[@korzer]

Hopefully everyone will help Clark get back on the road, such a shame.

I was introduced to Steve Morris from our boy Cleeter and I've thoroughly enjoyed your content ever since. Thanks from across the pond!

[@dtw322]

Great video. Unfortunate for Tom and Clark. Amazing how you isolated the event and told your story of your experience as you worked to improve the Wagon.

[@taskforce3833]

I like his Video's cause unlike others he tells what has happened and why, also he seems real, a real person, not some folk-hero wearing a black cape and saving damsels in distress. and you can learn stuff from his video's (he warns about this in his video's).

[@dmeemd7787]

HELL YES!!!! Thank you for continuing to take us along on this journey! The excitement I see in the comments, make me know that there are people going to drag race and want to build stuff and work on stuff because of this channel and that’s badass all the way across the board my friend!! “Sometimes life hard and that’s OK because sometimes life is easy” (and good!!!)

[@tabbott429]

Cool update!! Back in the saddle again!! Sucks that the water caused issues.

There is no better wagon. I love how in love with your wife that you are! The two of you are special, that can't be duplicated.

[@CGT80]

My grandmother's 90's wagon, issued by pick n save in SoCal as a company vehicle, wasn't anything like this........well it looked almost the same but in blue. She bought it when she left that job and drove it in retirement and up until cancer took her in 2019. Watching these videos reminds me of her and if she was still alive, I would stop by and show her a SM video on my phone of what a wagon could do. My grandfather had a 70 torrino cobra jet and a few other muscle cars, so they were much like the typical people who grew up around hot rodding and could appreciate this kind of stuff.

[@tools6106]

I can see all you guys care about each other! It’s a cool deal I don’t hear about pushing shoving and fighting, just guys who want to race, the good and the bad! Love your sportsmanship!

[@Scott-lx5kj]

Brother. Where are all the people to help you out when you need it. Much respect Steve! You are the GOAT right now!

[@TheScottib1]

Well deserved, congratulations, onwards, and upwards 🎉😊🇦🇺

[@metalted6128]

The hot rod WAGON!! So cool it’s back, even better!! Even better to do in your home state!! Drag and drive!!!

[@douglashartsaw3286]

Good to see it making hits again. Have surely missed it.

[@95poo40sx]

I love that Vals been in the racing videos and doing drag and drives now! Love seeing you two together..... and Kyle too 😂

[@kennethhicks6755]

"Resonant Frequency " is the term you're thinking of, referring to the valve spring breaking

[@dondotterer24]

Glad everyone is OK. Good job Steve. Congratulations. The homework and hard work payed off! And always pull the parachutes no matter what.

[@mrstryfe]

This is my favorite car in modern motorsports. my dad, who passed in 2011 would hae also loved it, and he would have loved drag and drive more than anything. I always think of weekend afternoons with my dad when i watch you and your son. Thanks Steve.

[@drjeep1971]

Thank you for the video. LOVE it was a family effort. Nice to see a strong family.

[@coachster]

Gotta love Clark. “Go straight” 😂😂😂😂😂

[@jennajones2155]

When the chutes popped out prematurely I died. Val was like “what is happening”😂😂

[@bobaque70]

It was almost as good as Tom pulling the fire suppression system in his own face!

[@FastSS02]

I was like, that's weird, I've never seen them test the chute deployment before, but maybe he wanted to be safe and not be like Bailey in his Camaro a while back. Then when he said the 5.5 chute deployment, I realized that must have been the ONLY parameter he set was time, and not time + MPH.

[@CGT80]

@@FastSS02 I don't remember if it was Cleetus or Alex who killed the brakes on Tom's car when the chutes failed on their licensing run.......maybe Cleetus, but it made me think that Steve purposely tested them without telling anyone he was going to do it. Cleetus and George have also ended up in the sand/dirt at the end of the track before, so "failure is always an option" as Adam Savage says.

[@Alexgetstowork]

Haha that was funny 😂

[@thehotrodstation3313]

Came to the comments with a premature "eject"ulation of the parachute joke. But decided against it. Hahaha😅 Also the quarter panels don't flinch even on the 2 step! Niiiiice job SOLID!!!

Love the center console shot at the end! Most badass wagon in the world!

[@toukkis5698]

The chutes popping was so hilarious!!!🤣🤣🤣 Was this 1/8 mile racing?? The Wagong killed it!!🥳🥳

[@FastSS02]

Yeah 1/8th. I was hoping it was 1/4 since it seems like 1/8 mile the cars are only starting to get moving.

[@randalltufts3321]

170 in the 1/4 chutes are definitely a good idea

[@AceEverett]

@@FastSS02 100% with those turbo cars. They aren't passing anyone in the 1/8th but you can watch em go around people at 200+ in the 1/4.

Steve it's hard to see you having problems with your wagon, But you will prevail and keep getting better. So thanks for the awesome content and as usual keep thinking at a high lvl :)

[@bt9653]

Steve, your marriage to Val is a great example to many younger people on how to survive the ups and downs of life and support each other thru thick and thin. I’ve been married for 34 years and been with the same girl for 38……And self-employed.

[@vehdynam]

Great outing for the wagon ( minus a few glitches). This was truly a family and friends operation. So sorry about Tom and Clarky, bummer. Thanks for the video , appreciated.

[@UncleManuel]

**POP** goes the parachutes! Honestly I did laugh out loud because that's situational humor right there! 😂😂😂

[@WaltJubal]

Just found your channel a few days ago... I'm a fan, like your style, and your content.

[@oneiam1533]

Lots of general aviation aircraft have RPM ranges that you are not to run them in. They create frequencies that stress fracture and make things unhappy.

[@brucedryden7207]

Got to be a blast drivin' that car down the road, thanks!

[@CC-mb8fi]

Great Well done Steve and Val You guys work well together as a drag n drive team. Steve, amazes me that the American v8's havent been developed into a desmodromic valve control system like the Ducati motorcyles. Or rotary valves Ever think about developing something like that?

[@stephencurry8552]

Cosworth had a valve spring issue in F1. At a certain RPM, the harmonics of the valve springs were such that they would fracture the metal. At lower RPM. Not higher.

[@jasonhovey815]

Great weekend for you happy to see it after last year. Really hate it for Clark and Bailey but like you said that’s just glad everybody’s OK.

[@stealinghubcaps]

highly recommend you mag particle inspect your valve springs. I've done a lot of them and however good quality springs you get they can still have inclusions and various other defects! keep up the great vids!

[@motorunion]

such amazing couple!!!

[@jamescardwell3254]

Glad to see the Wagon in front great win you deserved it. I hated to see Tom crash well anyone for that matter. A day of rain before I went racing when I did race always kept me on edge the next day while racing and the sun out. Most would think when the track is dry it's dry totally not the case. You were spot on with that explanation of what most likely happened there. Most importantly everyone was OK it sux but it is an unfortunate part of racing sometimes.

[@ratrod1962]

Door handles look much better !!! Congratulations on the win !!

[@chadhulsizer]

Congratz Steve you guys deserve it! I’m in for a Clark shirt, hate it for him and Tom.

[@brjones27]

Ouch. Feel bad for both of them.

[@crazymotoaction]

Definitely could be a resonance frequency issue. Interesting concept to think about I wonder if the resonance frequency changes as the spring pressure changes. The general rule in the world of vibration analysis is. If you change the mass or stiffness of a given object or piece of equipment. The resonance frequency changes.

[@2wheelzdown180]

Great to see it ripping! No trans cover inside the car yet after the rebuild?

[@brianeffler7835]

Looks like the inner spring is rubbing the outer spring. Check retainer for interference with one of the springs as well as interference at the base of spring seat area. I know because I experienced it a number of years back about 25 miles from home had to change spring in a parking lot. I had to change some parts in valve hardware and resolved the issue.
