I’m happy you are safe! I bet Garret and James are glad to help out where they can. It’s easy to see how much they both respect you.

Love how you are always so humble you never blame the equipment and always seem to learn from your mistakes. Hope to see it in the 5’s again for sick week!

I love your calm, methodical approach to diagnostics after a pass. Every day is a learning experience!

6:10 Chutes Deployed 6:11 Passenger Seatbelts go HORIZONTAL FROM Negative G’s. That’s so Cool it’s SICK! Imagine the forces this car applies with a Full Pass!?! E-Ticket Ride for sure!

Please keep showing what go’s wrong 🤦‍♂️ and not hide it like a lot of other KZfaq channels😡 good work guys good luck on sick week 👍

Love the looks of either concern or disappointment or dissatisfaction whenever something doesn’t work out and the long pause with stare…lol love it haha.

Your positive attitude does not go unnoticed Tom. Freaking awesome that you found the weak link and no 🔥

Glad you found this before the racing starting.. Even happier that you and the car are OK!

Seeing the fluid pouring into the cabin during the run i was puckered up for sure thinking it was fuel. Thankful it wasn't anything TOO major and you're ok!

Tom you definitely never blame the equipment. Your definitely a Gentleman of the sport. Nice spicy burn out 💯🔥👏👍

Definitely got some angels flying with you Tom!! Glad you're safe

Your calm demeanor through every step of the process is admirable sir! Excited to watch this beast make some passes on sick week!

Hay Tom, Steve, Aiden.. It’s crazy, almost the entire KZfaq auto community are fired up for SickWeek ! It’s one of the very few community’s that have grown together (rather than trying to go alone) It really says a lot for car/racing enthusiasts.. No politics, no s**t talking (unless it’s in good nature) and all the sweat, blood and pain pay off when something as big as SickWeek is about to kick off. Will be watching from Ireland 🍀🇺🇸🦅🇮🇪

I was getting a bit worried there at the end of the track when you were not rushing to get out. Experience pays. Glad you and the car are OK.

Love the work you do Tom, along with your son and Steve. Incredible machines you produce. The 3 Amigos! Good luck for Sick Week and stay safe. Regards from the UK

Has some of the most advanced drivetrain, parts, computers known to drag racing....runs historical license plate lol

I have to congratulate u on the staying cool program Tom with these issues!!✅ hope u guys get everything figured out and burn up the track in the low 5’s 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

Thanks for showing the trouble shooting process. Always learning things from you videos.

This is super cool Tom! Thanks for sharing this awesome drag stuff I appreciate it a lot.

Tom I love your determination and calm cool mind. The content is great! Best of luck to you and the team.

Glad you are safe! Even me watching got some heebie-jeebies! Hope everything goes good !

Hope you can shake out all the gremlins and have a good weeks racing 😎👍

Tough break, but luckily it was a test drive. thanks for sharing, and best of luck 👍

Best to find this stuff in testing, rather than mid week.

11:25 atleast that weld wheel with the tbm brake setup looks clean as hell.

There was a moment we're I thaught u was in fire happy your safe and 2.0 is smashing it. You the man tom 🤘

Glad is wasn't worse!! You have a great attitude when faced with all of these challenges, good luck

One of my favorite channels! Good luck this week!

That is tough luck for sure. I hope you can get it fixed up and running well. Thank you for the video .

The stakes are so high on every pass. Love to see you guys getting after it!!!

11:00 Steve goes "That's transmission fluid, that's what that tastes like" in the background

Better now than later. I ordered my magazine/book yesterday. Thank you for your time.

Awesome video. Shit goes wrong sometimes. That's racing. Love how you take things in your stride. Thank you for the entertainment

I like how Tom is just himself. No need to ham it up for youtube.

What an awesome sunset in an awesome back of the trailer..13:16

Good luck man. Beautiful car.!

Just found you guys...and your door panels on that Camaro says it all...that car is a beast ....love the way you handle adversity brother !

That footage was intense! I’m glad it turned out as well as it did, hope you get er turned around in time!

Wheeew! Almost crapped my pants when I saw that smoke! Thankful for no fire, and Glad you are safe Tom.

getting it all out the way in testing and it will be ready to kick some a$$, glad you safe and no fire.

Even Tom has a rough day... Glad there wasn't a fire This time.... good luck next week....

Ooooohhhhhwwwweeeeeee. I can't wait for all the content coming frim SICK WEEK. Thanks Tom!

That's one reason I don't like exposed trans, Luckily the fluid didn't get sprayed on you.

That's what testing is for! Good thing you could nearly walk to cleetus his shop for lines.

poor little overdrive unit, it gave it all it had and then started letting the magic smoke out...hahahaha. Glad you're safe.

Glad you found it during testing. Hope you get it all figured out. P.S. We did get a quick glimpse of a really nice Chevy wagon sitting in the pits.

Amen for parts on hand for sure . The G force at the end of the second run was intense and watching in playback speed of 0.25 very interesting. Hearing the motor at that speed gives it a hole new meaning can hear the difference between the motor after third run much smoother. Thanks for sharing the ride loved it

Seeing the passenger seatbelts fly forward when you pop the chutes gives a feel for the decel. Car looks Sick man.

Fastest overdrive pass ever..lol Glad it was just an almost man, kick some ass this week!

Well its a good thing your doing some testing. Get the issues out of the way now

Just glad your safe man

so cool the inercia from the shoots and passenger seat belt flying up in the air

That bump in looked pretty violent then seeing the shift with no rpm change......

Glad it wasn't worse Tom. Can't wait to see that Sick Beast making hits and cruising

Speechless 😶... Yet Tom and Steve always Find exactly Why, Where & How... I almost fall into: "Steve what are you doing to Our Car? Fans who invest emotion into thier favorite competitors and anguish over any damage, loss or set back's. Yet you'll get it fixed? That will be a big relief!

The gremlins, of it all. You got this tom 👍👍😎

Thankfully no one was hurt and the issue can be fixed easily. Stay safe

Sick Week is gonna be a riot. Thanks, Tom.

I know you and your team will give it your all . Good luck 👍

7:50 you’re right because even that broken clock is right twice a day.

Couldn't be at a better place with Cleetus's shop right next door

So the smoke of the passenger side was from the GV OD overheating and burning up?

Tough break on that one. Man I love that car though she is purrrty!

Build, Test, Break, Repeat. It's a vicious cycle. Glad you are okay.

this is why it's a good thing to test, now hopefully next week, everything will go smooth.

Man those bumps are so aggressive that's a lot of rocking at the light

Quick little fix, again love that wrap!

Tom when you look at the first pass you see smoke at 1.44 secs blowing out from one of the cage bars along side of the trans !

Will you have your magazine books at the tracks next week? I'll be in Gainesville and would love to pick one up

Glad everyone is ok

This videos are awesome

I so wish I could go to this!! It’s right in my backyard. I just wasn’t quick enough to get a pass.

It's got to be frustrating after all the time and money that goes into these cars. But that makes Victory all the sweeter

Do you have a catch can on the trans vent?

Dang, glad it turned out the way it did.

What do you guys use for headlights when you’re on the road?

Hope you guys smoke um this year.!!! Best of luck ...👍

I was going to say it sounds like it’s sputtering! Than in the next picture it shows the coil unplugged! Was it passenger side? Thats where it didn’t sound right! I know transmission is shifting into high on the burnout, but it still doesn’t seem to shift into high gear, even know the shifter is making change, there doesn’t seem to be any RPM drop? Hopefully it seems that way because it was down a cylinder 🙄🙄🙄🙄? That trans line deal sucks 🙄🙄🙄🙄, but luckily you didn’t see fire & you didn’t panic 😱 & pull fire system, your week would have been over before it even started! I’m praying 🙏🏻 that your trans isn’t hurt, because normally with a Rossler, you don’t need a spare! Best of luck! I’m hoping you could do the 5 seconds @ all tracks! Just be happy 😃 there wasn’t any hot stuff 🔥 & it wasn’t a injector unplugged 🙄🙄🙄🙄🤬🤬🤬🤬🤯🤯🤯🤯! I’m hoping your done finding issues! It’s so cool 😎 to see your son fixing your car! Like Joe Barry’s kid, like Steve’s kid! It will be something they all remember years after us old guys are gone! I wish I had the budget to do it again! This time with my daughters!

That's why it's testing now..glad it was a small fix

Cleeter did that same thing with his overdrive when he first started running Mullet

And, we do this for fun. THanks for posting.

Curious how that feels after so long not making rips like that? I go a few weeks away from my car and it feels like its leaving my eye balls in the back seat and its about 1/6 the horsepower

Hopefully it was on a good run before that happened, did it pick up after plugging the coil back in?

A quick tip is case you didn’t know this, but microfiber towels soak up oil like crazy. If it’s not too late for the cleanup!

I see smoke and I freaking panic ! Holy shit…..so glad it was a line only.

That car is violent!

SEND IT!!!

Tom that is one sick car

With alll the fluid that shot into the passenger floor, I would have to cover that drivetrain inside the cab

Beautiful car. Loving the content. Keep it up! :)

I hope you guys run the quarter mile during sick week that's real drag racing

Glad it wasn't worse. You have a lot of patience.

Magic Smoke!

Weather looks good for sick week but may get some rain Wednesday but temp in the 80 s

That is the sickest grill cover ever!

Dayum that thing bumps in violent.

Hang in there my grandpa used to say year it goes that way an gets worse lol hopefully it's an easy fix

Hello Tom Thank God u didnt get sprayed with hot oil & your OK.

Nice blue volvo

Hi Tom, sure you have seen it by now, on the first pass 1.44 you can see what looks like smoke shooting out the side of the gearbox. On the second run, the 2nd - 3rd shift didnt drop that much RPM or in sound, like it was slipping then the final run it didnt really sound like it was shifting and by about 3/4 track, you lifted and the the trans said good bye............Hope not and you can get it all fixed.
