Just make sure that it will travel on it's side if only for a moment. LoL

Please make sure to send a link of this to Parker Mitchell. And don't forget to highlight "changing your oil"

Probley change the oil once or twice ...ends up changing at every track during RMRW lol congrats on the wins guys!!!

those hanging wrench bags are absolutely genius!!!!

I'm from Sweden, and heck, moving to Murica and participate in raceweek is on my bucket list! :)

I love race week, el toro was a hoot for the way that car came together,

If you’re Derek you bring a set of points and wobble pops that’s it

I'm an old man and will never do a race week but that sure was educational for this fan.

I run a Gear Vendors behind a TH400 but.. I don't use it specifically for MPG. Its used to keep rpms under control. When you have a 4.10-4.30 etc gear its a LIFE saver. Less rpm is less times the valve train cycles over the life of the event. Things are so less stressful mentally when you can actually keep up with highway traffic also. I am a 7 time participant 7 time finisher and 7 time podium..so..I dont feel Im talking out of my butt saying this.. food for thought on folks that cant run a highway gear like you do.

You can pack real nice then roll the trailer over like Derek and John 🤣

Chad and I were commenting on the road how much we liked your little trailer. Those Milwaukee packout cases are awesome. See you on 2.0. 👊

I found this to be super useful thanks Doug !!!

Love the content I've been following all your videos from Rocky Mountain race week great job on the win

Thanks for getting derrlick along with youll

Your mini-trailers prove that less is more when it comes to drive & race events - kudos! 👍

Can you do a video on the proper rearend and possible gear for a drag and drive event? Spool vs posi? Under 1000 and over 1000 hp. Thank you

Shew buddy 🇺🇲🏁🏁🏁😎

If you need to take Loctite they do make it as a stick, like a glue stick.

Just watched the race....sweet...

YES! I needed this kind of info. Def wanted to know what people typically take with them.

this guy :"you gotta pack light for raceweek" proceeds to pack 18,712 lbs of equipment into a 2x3 trailer.

That's immensely helpful for someone like me wanting to do a drag week next year.

"motion now sells dragweek trailers, part #blablabla" I'd hit the buy now button!

Battery drills/drivers

Great list for ANY cross-country trip! Thanks for the great vid 🕶👍🏽

Thanks for the info! Appreciated very much!

Awesome tips and info, thanks for sharing your experience✊🍀

What a great video thank you!

Beautiful! Well planned out!

Thanks Doug. Great video. Nice you took the time to do it.

Yesssss

I truly hope to get out to RMRW soon. It’s the number one thing I wanna do. It’s a hike from NJ, but life’s short and it’s a bucket list for me

You forgot the 4 cases of Busch lite to hold the cooler down

Packing the trailer Is like playing Tetris... keep it square as possible.

Great content thanks for sharing, very informative

Good shit Doug! Much appreciated mang.

Support 🇺🇲

Good stuff!!!

I'd put a door faces on the back,so you don't need to open top. Also make a wedge or smooth cover out of fiberglass etc to make it more streamline.ThankQ. TkEZ>UK

Thanks for the info Doug.

Always wondered what people take, thanks.

Thanks for taking us along the #RMRW2021 adventure! Really great entertainment!

Pro tip: Get or make adapters and replace the trailer wheels/tires with your car's spare wheels/tires. You can put a skinny under the trailer for a spare. This saves the weight of the extra wheels and tires to pull.

Very interesting

Awesome! I'm investing into milwaukee pack out to separate everything I dont have any "car guy" friends to learn with, so this is cool. I hope to run a drag/drive race soon!

Great video 👍👍👍

So handy

Great Video,best commercial for HPL Tyranny fluid was #eltoro with the Powerglide 480 miles in 2nd gear !!!

Another thing would be choose a class that you can run without pushing your car to the extreme limits. If you're running your car on the edge of parts failure point every pass you will most likely break it before the end of the week.

Smart less is more approach. I’m currently building (collecting the pieces) a 55 Chevy wagon to do these events with and have been wondering if I should get a trailer as I could just pack the car but you just made up my mind I will get a trailer because yes unpacking and packing constantly would suck. I think you’ve steered me to a powerglide or th400 too. I’m shooting for mid 10s with my car small block, efi, single turbo as simple as possible.

Just curious about how you transport your fuel? We got stopped on our way to the track one day with three 5 gallon VP racing containers of alcohol. The cop was pretty cool but told us we could only carry 5 gallons legally in that type of container. He stated they had to be in DOT approved containers with spring loaded nozzles and secured by some type of crate or basket ?Anyone else ever run into this?

I have a feeling Cleet will be getting one of these

Would a set of golf clubs or 3 fit in a trailer that size? It might be good for Raceweek and trips down to Florida. Love seeing these types of videos! Keep up the good work

Good video. thanks for sharing. I won't be able to do a race week, but I sure would like to see a video on the logistics of a race week. Planning, lodging...what happens if parts are needed badly for overnight shipping. How do you go about that? Do you have vendors on standby prior to the actual race week, or what. Just curious. Keep up to good content, and congrats on y'alls wins. on RMRW 2021.

Has anyone ever tried to use a lock up convertor for drag week. Like not for the drag racing but so that in high gear you can lock it on the road and the convertor is what makes a lot of heat in a transmission on these events. If you lock it up it may stay way cooler and pull a trailer better.

Put your Explodable stuff in Ziploc Freezer bags. They're tough

you should do one on how not to install trailer hitch with El Toro haha it was bending

Great info! Blue Nova teaser in the back. What's the latest on it?

Yep i would have every tool it took to build my car in that trailer (every one i use i am keeping in a cart with a lock top minus fab tools) and it would be something nobody has ever needed that would go bad for me lol

Small fire extinguisher (separate from your fire suppression system) and a small First Aid kit?

This gave me anxiety. Thinking about forgetting to pack something lol

I'm going to find a little sink so you can say I brought everything plus the kitchen sink

I offer custom treardrop trailers, i can build them to house all kinds of welders and air compressors and kegerators, spare parts, spare engines.... whatever the racer needs, they start at $3000.00 bare bones. The teardrop is wicked aerodynamic, ultra light weight and is cavernous inside. We can also paint or wrap to match your racecar

How are you guys handling the used trans fluid and oil when changing? What are you doing with it?

The only thing I didn't see put in that I thought should be included would be a drill with two extra batteries, and some drill bits. Maybe it was just not shown in the video.

hi enjoy the channel. i saw Andy in one of Derek's videos at VGG. he was driving a white #99 Mercedes-Benz. could you please tell me what year and model that is ? also, the year and model of Andy's GTO. both beautiful. thank you

In 1320 Video's clip of your last run of the week, it looked like your front tires were lifting off the pavement when you were at speed. I know you commented that the track was a little bumpy on the top end. Wouldn't there be danger of a blowover when you became that light on the front at that speed? Also, CONGRATULATIONS on your class win and for being the second quickest car in the field. Also, you probably saw Tom McGilton's nice comments about you when you came over to congratulate him on his first place finish in the unlimited class. How could someone involved in drag 'n' drive racing not know who you are? I'm sure he knows about Motion Raceworks even though he wasn't aware of one of the co-owners.

Where can I get something like this

Still love your work Doug. Greetings from Australia

If your trailer uses the same wheel and tires as your race car BAM two spare race wheels.

👍👍🇨🇱

Sweet Doug, I'm curious how much apparel y'all sell with those shipping prices😔😳 $15 to ship a snapback hat? Sad day. Love, love, love what y'all do and would love to support the merch, as soon as y'all work out that shipping😍

Great info Doug! Maybe some epoxy and duct tape!

i would love to do race week but i haven't seen a 25 second class yet. and that might be to fast of a class for the Red Turd.

What if your lid was on a slider ??.so as to not unstrap everything to get inside the box

First!!!

The only thing you didn't mention was spark plugs.

you forgot a big ass role of duck tape

Douge hey Doug or Doogie, 700 isn't cheap for me, the machine shop has had my motor for 2 months cause it takes awhile for me to save 2300 bucks bro

Looks pain in azz videoing this and packing at same time.......
