So if I start a YouTube channel about racing and dynoing cars, register it as a business etc pay taxes blah blah, I can tax deduct all of my car parts? And if I blow up the car, I can tax deduct new parts? Lol
Yep. Everything that you build content from is a business expense.

Disclaimer. I'm not a tax expert. Everything that I post could possibly be incorrect and you could end up being thrown in jail.

Having problems with pressure being put on the crankshaft and moving it forward.
These engines definitely don't last.

Cleetus now has a great engine builder and tuner, Pete Harrelson.
The figuring out isn't happening any more.

They overboosted to try and keep up with the competition. That's why he's now running the SMX motor.
I agree, Pete was a great addition.
Pete doesn’t tune or build everything though, they have a whole fleet that doesn’t involve him. They slapped together that Godzilla, and came out with the fastest one to date.
That BBC in Mullet did beat everyone… lol. They’ve won a lot of competitions with that thing. I think once they get the SMX and their transmission dialed, Mullet will be a whole new animal.

M&M transmission seems to be moving from high line pressure somewhere, if I'm not mistaken.

Well, Mullet should be fast and win a lot shouldn't it? Purpose built by professionals and just that SMX engine is what, $75K+? No telling how much money is in that car. Maybe even as much as some have paid for a Demon 170! :ROFLMAO:

I was watching a video and it still has the stock rear torque boxes.

Wow!! 215+ mph race car. Not good in my opinion.

I think the torque boxes tore out on one pass and Tye had to rebuild/reweld them already.

Was it Mullet or the Fox body? I don't remember.

Hmmm, now I can't remember either lol. I usually watch their stuff when I'm on the treadmill after my workout so mildly distracted to begin with.

I was talking about all of the wins when it was just a BBC…
Who knows what’s in store once they get a couple thousand more horsepower running like it should.

Oh, the LS, yes. Looking forward to Pete’s LS to see what it’ll do. I thought we were talking about the Steve Morris Big Block that won everything last season… they were leaning on it very hard, but it was putting in work for sure. You probably already know this, but Steve also designed his own billet LS based race motor… can’t wait for someone to really push one of those. 001 ended up in a donk :(
