WHAT THE HELL IS TAKING SO LONG!!!???
The guys explain exactly what the hell is taking so long in the latest installment of the Leroy saga! There were a few hiccups and a lot of sanding, and some more sanding... and more sanding, and... oh, yeah, MORE sanding. You get the picture. We've just entered HOME STRETCH! We're as excited as you are. Thanks for watching! ‪@CleetusM‬

I wonder if Cleetus is finished with the smx motor? He knows it’s not Steve’s fault the engine had problems. It was a lack of maintenance from what I understand after watching Steve’s video. I hope he trades the used smx in for a new smx and Steve gives him a very detailed regimen of maintenance

@JayMac 8 күн бұрын

@@dwight8269 ugh... This is getting boring. An SMX will not be in the new car EVER. Its the completely wrong engine for that build, not to mention the smx was the reason cleet couldnt run the classes and races he wanted. I love Steve but its just not happening. The Camaro will be a trailer princess that is towed to and from the pits and lanes and NEVER have a radiator... Oh and cleet was seen leaving proline two days ago 🤷‍♂️🤣
