It takes about 160ms for sound to be processed by the brains and 200ms for visual data. You processed the failure AND moved the throttle in 200ms (0.2s). Nobody is going to react faster then that. You might put a Strain gage on the Load that can detect torque being applied.. If the Load drops out you immediately kill the injectors. That would probably only take 50ms to respond to a failure like this..

[@b.c4066]

but by the time the load dropped the damage was already done right? even if you can kill the fuel and spark that fast the time it takes to return to zero rpm it is going to break stuff. yes??

[@AIM54A]

@@b.c4066Correct. The instant the bolts broke nothing was going to stop the engine from hitting those insane RPMS.

[@bigblockjess617]

If it ain't broke, dont fix it. So I broke it. -Steve morris

[@jerryhatrick5860]

Hahahahaha

[@bobjones37450]

That would make a great shirt.

[@Slugg-O]

I think it's necessary to keep digging for the root cause of the fault. Bolts broke, okay. Why did they break? Were they defective, fatigued, over torqued, wrong bolts\grade, vibration, and if so from what? Still amazed and relieved that no one was seriously injured by all the shrapnel.

[@JonHop1]

Steve, isnt the Motorsports community just wonderful man? This is my favorite part of it. The Community, friendships, and everyone just willing to help each other out. I am so privileged to be able to be a part of such a great Community of people. Rock on!

[@picklefart]

That’s what I miss the most about racing. Going fast is cool, but the people…..it’s unlike any other group. Great community for sure.

[@mshort7087]

That’s awesome. The dirt trackers around here would steal your stuff and then help you look for it😂

[@mrbill8542]

A piece of diamond plate aluminum on that wall below the glass would look great !!

[@rangerst_870]

steel diamond plate would survive a hit better.

[@ssnerd583]

Or a piece of 3/4 plywood with 12x12 ceramic floor tiles glued to it.....add a layer of asphalt shingles on one side and a layer of polythene cutting boards on the other and you have a pretty good home made bullet proof panel......might not stop .50 BMG but likely most everything else :D

[@rmoby]

1/2" steel plate please

[@picklefart]

At this point Steve needs double stacked sand bags like a bunker. Say the word Steve and I’ll grab my entrenching tool 😂

[@nathanbopp6163]

Diamond plate, but would steel be cheaper and stronger?

[@bonose12]

Did we miss you tell us about the engine? What hp did it fail at and were the flywheel bolts arp or previously traumatized? Basically root cause of the failure. If you want perspective on that type of failure, watch jet engine videos of blade off tests. Truly violent and scary. The energy involved in these failures is staggering. So glad you all are ok and kudos to those pitching in to get SME back at full speed.

[@davidgough1161]

I am just glad no one was hurt, engines can be replaced, a life can't.

7:35 protip take some marine heat shrink with the adhesives/sealer to put on tip of your prybar with stuff like glass. Have a pair of channel locks id did the same thing on for softer surfaces.

[@dazaspc]

I have done This as well and as you say it works really well.

Just to add another point of context to two tenths of a second. According to google the average human eye blink is one tenth of a second. Everyone can blink twice, back to back, to get a better idea of how quick two tenths is.

Is that looking out or looking in? If you can flip a switch on & off in a tenth of a second youve done sumthin

You should have a couple sets painted so they match. There is probably the same amount of time doing the color match as it takes to paint.

Last video I wanted to mention Steve... might be time to "re-inforce" the dyno room. In the Marines my Dyno observatory had twin panes of actual bullet resistant glass. Was able to deflect a breaker bar that was still on the dampner on a start-up once..... hit the window so hard the breaker bar was bend by around 20 degrees. Also might want to make the primary walls out of cinderblock minimum. I know some "boom rooms" fill the cinderblock with sand. Love your work Steve, stay safe big dawg.

[@metalted6128]

Come on man!!! SME is private business, built from scratch. Not government funded, HUGE difference!!! Between a a military built dyno room, Then a private work your ass off, to make a living, dyno room. Watch SME history, to understand the difference.

[@bobroberts2371]

@@metalted6128 Steve can't make a living if he is dead. Do you realize what would happen if a customer was seriously hurt / killed? A stronger window and cement blocks are standard dyno room construction.

[@theoldbigmoose]

Steve, I know I mentioned it before and you commented. ... but your wheel dyno in the middle of the shop concerns me for a fire hazard like Bailey had. You now have a couple million bucks USD worth of machinery running 24/7. Please reconsider the risk in that area. A bad fire will put your shop down for months.

[@ryanlamfers8692]

Seems like it'd be a lot easier to just line it with steel plate to me. Also doesn't require fully knocking the dyno rooms down and starting over with block.

[@josephmatuszak3855]

@@ryanlamfers8692 Military chose the brick/sand to absorb. Just so ya know. Steel plate prolly would be a touch cheaper tho than starting from scratch. A good observation glass is still a necessity though!

[@michaelgallopo5879]

Glad to see you working on the wagon can't wait to see it back on the track 🙌...keep living the dream ✨️

[@lowbudgetbob1155]

Put some tint on the glass to keep it contained if it happens to shatter due to tire shake or something hitting it. The tint will stop it from blowing everywhere.

Love it Steve. Follow you heart! Nice idea to get to the tire and adjustments. This is a change for the good.

Good work guys and as always great job keeping the shop flowing ❤Dewey❤.😊

[@kilgorefamily76]

Amazing to see all that old sheetmetal with almost no rust. Living on an island in the Pacific we never see that on cars more than a few years old. I wonder if you could add a hinge on the top and have the quarters open up like gullwing doors, so they don't have to come all the way off for tire and rearend service.

[@michaellapolice6931]

A piano hinge right below the window would make it so it could hinge up, they would be visible, but it might make it stronger and keep it from being pulled off when going 200+mph.

[@travisboatwright5466]

I like the voice overs Steve

[@CoopaCoop]

It's always good to have great friends!

[@krazyphucker369]

Super easy tire changes and better access for maintenance and repairs and vent windows for some airflow always nice to have vent windows it's getting ready for springtime looking good

Lots of progress going on here , with help from volunteers! Can't wait for the wagon to get back out there. Thanks Steve for the great video.

This is just something Id never done before And not many of us wouldve known if you hadnt shared. We are very pleased with how the car is coming along. Cheers.

[@scrotiemcboogerballs1981]

You let go of the window and I thought for sure it was gonna fall out lol great video buddy thanks for sharing

[@jeffhopper3526]

Steve, I see a storage container in your future with wood grain stripes to store wagon panels and such. Also be cool to use "gas cap" as pop out GoPro to capture the losing lane action. And, is there someway to pressurize cabin to prevent, minimize , or evacuate tire burn out smoke?

[@user-cb3ti8qt1w]

That looks nice Steve that should be really slick for the drag drive life.

Another great video and like the beginning says you might learn something I learned that the way you carry your self and your business you are loved and respected by alot of people you have the triple Fs coming to help Family, friends, and fans all trying to help glad no one got hurt when the dyno let go.

[@JackIrwin-sd7vd]

Steve, I am concerned about the ability of the "spot" welds holding the Zeus fastener brackets to the fender(s) to not fail during 250 MPH runs. I'd feel better if you used through bolts in the fenders to hold the brackets in place. Those fenders are like sails and any slight pressure differences from inside to outside the fender at speed are likely to blow the fenders off. Just sayin' . . .

[@redchemicalsltd2324]

Great point & definitely would not trust @ 250mph plus.... Also cannot see the point of removing the whole rear panel past the wheel tubs... l would have made a neat joint seam & only have the front part section removable...👍🇬🇧.

[@padders1068]

Great work Steve and a great creative process. I could sense your thought processes processing at every step of the way! Way to to go Wagon and Steve! Can't wait to see you both back in action! 🙂😎🤓❤

[@rockhound52308]

Some long aligning pins of some kind at the top corners would hold the fender while you et the first few fastners started.

[@jimhorrocks9393]

Nice work on the quarter panel slick idea

[@ajspak874]

this is cool that the wagon is really coming along nicely.

[@rangabanga32]

i like that wood grain colour.

[@Jzatloukal]

Steve, if you can figure out a pin and rail system or a tab and hole set up something similar that doesn’t have buttons so you can just hang the top of the panel on and then dzus the rest that would fix the access problem to that top lip.

[@turbov8aust]

Stainless steel sheet the room. Will look mint and serve a purpose

[@Tube4TTT]

Definitely use the new panel for that “good” side. That bondo makes it need a new paint job anyway. Start with a perfect one

[@dmeemd7787]

Wonder if it would be beneficial to use the Zeus fasteners that have springs behind them and don’t come completely out so you don’t have to have a handful of Zeus faster or anytime you take a panel off.. I don’t really see them as much anymore, but a promod I worked on years ago had some and it kept coming to mind anytime like saw your videos when you were going to add fasteners to these panels - which I have a feeling you might be doing already lol In any case, your dedication helps. Remind me when things get hard to keep pushing harder in life! Your heart work and craftsmanship are second to none, it is your ability to want to learn more and be better at everything..! Amazing stuff as always, thank you!!

[@PhilG999]

The only Dzus fasteners I've ever seen were the captured ones... But that was a LONG time ago! Yeah, I'm old (65)...

Hey steve you should do Lamborghini door hinges so they go up to vertical.... Then you don't have to do all the zeus fascinaters.. Thank you for all the amazing content ..... Or how about a Mercedes gullwing door type situation where they just hinge up and out.

[@michaeltemple8333]

Look into paint protection film for the quarter (PPF). Considering the amount of handling and laying down it will get it would help keep the paint beautiful.

[@jerryhatrick5860]

Those nibbles are the shit though, Especialy the ones that mage a small crease in the metal. Just the thinness of it for panel replacements. But snappoff isn't the only one sell them. Save 50 percent.

[@peterhermansson8388]

Love the content! How about a long hinge all along the top edge of the rear fenders then you just undo front and lower zeus clips and fold the fender up. You can add some light hood shocks to keep fender up while changing tires. It will be a little bit faster more ridgid and save you moving the fender around eliminating risks of messing it up.😊 Greatings from sweden

[@odahithedubious2017]

For more safety, Steinel makes a heat gun that would be suitable for much of that trim work. The Steinel HG 2320 E is 1600 watts, and hears up to 1,200 F. The temperature is adjustable in 10-degree increments. They're VERY reliable and durable, and would possibly save you some money in propane cylinders.

[@darylkaul1235]

Have you thought about having some carbon fiber quarter panels made now that they are removable. Easy to make more once molds are made.

[@clintw3230]

A thought for the wagon and scarcity of body parts. Since you’re making the quarters detachable, have you thought of fiberglass or carbon molded ones for the chance it happens again?? Since race car life and all

[@leehrh263]

Do yourself a favor and buy the socket head dzues's. You'll have better control while working inside that fender.

[@patricktrous]

@Steve Morirs i wonder if you can make a gasket flap on the inside of the car for the removable quarter pannel to keep some of the extra tire smoke out. like some 3m door trim or somthing..... just a thought less rattling, and a tighter seal

[@thegapmanca273]

Have you thought about using the steel fenders as molds to make fiberglass quarters. That way if you damage a quarter in the future you can make another fender again.

[@PAVEMENTMOD]

Put in 2 Dzus tool holders one for each side (will cut removal time in half having 2 tools). Also put in a small container to hold extra Dzus buttons. Of course after the first event you probably won't be putting all of them back in.

On your quarter panel you could attach it with a piano hinge at the top, undo your lower fasteners and prop it up with two small struts.
