Wednesday CHILI BOWL A-Main Was A WILD RIDE!!

[@chewinraceadvisors]

hands down best racecar at the chili bowl this year. I watched and studied 100's of incars from the chili bowl and this car/ engine combo is the best buy far.

[@Blblazer1210]

Helluva run in the B. You're in the A with a badass car. Congrats!

[@Blblazer1210]

Soooo glad that kid is gonna be OK and that you missed him. With that being said, you have to get into the A. I believe you have a car capable of winning. I want to see ya bringing that driller home back to Indiana with you.

[@stewarth8390]

Back in the day when I raced, I ended up getting a longer arm on the throttle pedal with multiple holes. I’d move it to get a slower throttle response on real slick tracks. It was an old racer who used to do a lot of winning in the 60’s and 70’s who gave me that advice. So who was I to argue with his wisdom haha

[@dchildress17]

Great vid. What a pucker moment. Impressed the professionalism you all had during that situation. Future thought.. I think a cool vantage point for a GoPro would be at your feet showing your footwork. Not sure if there is room down there but that’d be cool. Keep up the great work. Good luck fighting the gremlin!!

[@anthonyantoine9232]

Second the footwork idea. That'd be pretty cool.

[@michaelsonnon2333]

He shot a pedal video about two months ago. You can find it at his page under videos. Great vid too!

[@dchildress17]

@@michaelsonnon2333 cool thanks. Still would be cool for the chili bowl

[@anthonyantoine9232]

@@michaelsonnon2333 Thanks for the heads up! I don't watch TMez a ton, so I just missed it.

[@amtcruiser]

That was so close I flinched. Great driving with that motor acting up. That is most difficult in perfect conditions.

[@davidaarons2488]

I think there is pin in a connector that may be backing out or a wire with high resistance when under a load. They are the hardest to find, hope you guys find it.

[@justinedwards5519]

thats wild T! Lets get them today hope she runs better!

[@saragrant9749]

You did fantastic just making the feature with how stacked the lineup for the night was. It’s a learning experience and you’ll come back even stronger next year! I’m also glad you missed that kid , so scary!

[@CMeekhof]

question.. why is their flames coming from the exhaust when your on the gas. I thought that was only off throttle. Thanks

[@andywhyatt1697]

Nice job TMez. Car not paying the game, but still drove the wheels off it. Holy crap, that dude almost landing on your roof. Damn man!! 👍👍

[@HootisGarage]

Hell of a run. Nice job.

[@kevinmeyer102]

Mad skills fighting that car. Nice job.

[@paulking6404]

Whoooo! That was close Brother! I even ducked sitting in my lazy and said Holly Crap! Out Loud. My wife said she missed it so I had to rewind it so we could see it again. I'm glad your angel was lookin out for you and that other driver is OK

[@davewise29]

I can’t imagine what it was like to see someone get ejected in front of you. Your videos are so good!

[@williambillwaynerobertson930]

Good Luck TMez, 👍🇺🇸🏁🤙

[@cyclingbutterbean]

That was a pucker factor of 12 moment! Left front to right rear usually means you're going for a ride. Not sure if that was driver skill or just plain luck. Either way brilliant save!

[@alkennedy1124]

At one point the video and all pictures blinked off , there is a fraided wire somewhere hitting and wiggling touching ground somewhere I think ,,, thanks probably need to replace all wiring , thanks BigAl California.

[@robertwood5395]

Switches and grounds?

[@chewinraceadvisors]

was patiently dying for this video to get posted!

[@drewhamilton6906]

Bog and zap wagon. Reminds me of the early 90’s 125 motocross bikes you either had a 120 something or a 120 nothin.

[@rickpriest1961]

Not even enough time to grad a tear off! INTENSE.

[@edminas3159]

When can I purchase a TMez life-sized standee? I want one so bad.

[@billy9995]

Man i love how whatever happens you just roll with it and adjust and still find some way to make it happen theres so many dudes that cant pull that off....damn ford you can tell it makes serious power and is seriously pissed off...

[@justinreese7391]

Electical or a timing issue, hope you noticed the header/muffler is cherry red

[@michaelh5871]

Wild you didn’t spin out, with such a dog motor. Thanks for posting vid.

[@speedwaystevecronk6680]

Get the Gremlins out of the Engler Spl. Don't feed them after midnight ! Pull the belts tight you know what to do , best of Luck and Skill . I need a TMez trike .

[@Desperado9552]

Great job Thomas. My dad picked up a shirt for me at the Bowl. I’ll be cheering for you tomorrow give them hell.

[@Dino-cj1ko]

Hey man do you Irace. Like your home that long Anway?????? If you do it would be some good content maybe host a few races. Milwaukee

[@billmcmillan7735]

No matter what the situation is you always seem to get everything there is to get out of the car. Good luck we’re watching you every time you hit the track.

[@jtea84]

Missing some end video or was that 🏁

[@tmezTv]

That was 🏁🏁

[@Deerslyr81]

3:42 wasn’t that the guy that fell out of the car and the top tube landed on his helmet?! That just happened hopefully he’s gonna be good to go! 🤜🤛👍🙋🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤦‍♂️🌿

[@RA-zl6iw]

What is the purpose of the panel that a lot of cars have on the back of the roll cage behind your head? I hope you get the car sorted out and have a good week!

[@RedRacer78]

I am curious as well.

[@RacingWithChuck27]

I’m guessing the wind coming through gives the rear downforce

[@robertwood5395]

Good luck Saturday

[@retroextent795]

Gosh you can hear it choose when it wants to go, that’s frustrating

[@davidwilcox7241]

Freaking sick

[@rossmcclure5618]

Car sounds like it got progressively worse. Definitely something affected by the heat of the car. Ignition, and cooling. Maybe the computer is getting too hot? Maybe the motor is? Can we get more cooling to the head, and a new ignition module?

[@kevinhuber8723]

Just remember, this is Midget Lottery. Draw your pill and take your chances. Real Midget racing starts this summer and you will for sure be up front.

[@tmezTv]

I like that!!

[@daganhenry3894]

Kinda sounds like something wrong with your Rev limiter or Mag points

[@ryancrowley7707]

You'll never win without staying in the throttle

[@rossmcclure5618]

Looked like you guys pulled that motor and ran the old motor for the feature on Saturday. I hate that for you guys. I think if you had it running right in Saturday, you could have at least picked up a few more spots

[@alkennedy1124]

If it had a msd the roll pins sheer off or bend , that’s is a weak link in the msd”dis” f it has that you of firming , I hope you have a center bar on this car, if not your a glutton for punishment lol after the last time of that wheel hitting you in the head thanks BigAl California praise Jesus Christ grace grace grace amen 🙏

[@RacingWithChuck27]

Well, that sounded like ass! No bottom or mid range like you said. You guys have a proven winner with the TRD (I’m not a fan of yota). Hope you get it dialed in for the B tonight. Track was terrible, I think the CB is over rated. A lot more tracks that put on a better show. CB gives you the huge car count but so what, one lane track, rubbered in 🤔
