The freaking SSC Tuatara goes 331 mph!!! 1750 hp and built in the USA!! This car is insane! SSC is an American Hypercar manufacturer that just increased the Production Car Speed Record forward by more than 50 mph!! Nelson Racing Engines developed a twin turbo 5.9 liter engine that produces 1750 hp!!! The best part about this run? This was in a customer car! Car number 1 that belongs to a gentleman in Philadelphia!! Does that mean we'll see a 400 mph "production" car in our lifetime?

Then Garrett Duggins returns to celebrate 50 podcasts!! He was our first guest so we had to have him back to mark the occasion! He brings the story of a 2750 mile motorcycle trip with his wife and dad to Wyoming to see a friend! There are a ton of great stories that come with this one!! We talk the 2021 Bronco and LS swaps, plus what he'd build to run on a big road trip!

Adam is a long time car guy and tells the story of how Hot Rod, Road and Track and Car Craft magazines on the table at his barber was the beginning of his car obsession!! While in High School, his buddy Steve Wolf and he street raced a V8 Monza that Adam just bought back recently!! It still had parts and pieces from his high school days installed, like the Holley Blue Pump!!

There are so many great stories from this podcast that I am sure you will enjoy it as much as I did!!

Jacob is a staple of the NWA car scene! He has been a car guy for a very long time and his knowledge extends much further than his "almost 20 year old" life experiences! He is a rally participant, constant road tripping, car building and part time photographer! He can typically be found at all the local events with a camera in his hand!!

Billy started at Comp Cams after his move to Memphis with his wife and first child! But his affliction for engines began way before then! He grew up in rural Mississippi and that allowed him the chance to play with engines at an early age on the ponds/streams around the house! 

He started at Comp in 1995 and quickly moved from the Tech Line to Customer Support with some of the biggest names in racing! And it's all history from there! Just wait until you hear some of the names he worked with to develop race winning performance!!

I want to thank Aaron Mick for putting this together! Aaron was on for episode 37, so go back and make sure to listen to that one as well! These guys live our automotive dreams!!

Kevin is known for building some of the strongest, best performing transmissions!! He has been involved in automotive racing and high performance since he was a small kid when his dad raced dirt track!! He tells the story of coming home everyday from school and working on the race car with his dad! But the automatic transmission class at Tulsa Technical is what put him on this path. He wanted to learn to build/repair automatic transmissions for himself so he took a 10 week course but about halfway through the course, someone dropped off a Turbo350 transmission for him to rebuild and it was all down hill from there. 

Hensley's Transmission started as a part time business in his basement, and when the insurance company wouldn't insure the business at his home, he rented a spot and got to work! He talks about how anxious that move was to leave a regular job and do strike out on your own. 

I hope you enjoy this listen as much as I enjoyed recording it!! Kevin will be back for another podcast in the future as we have just scratched the surface for his knowledge and stories!!

Tyler Petram stopped by (on his Birthday!!) the shop to hang out a little bit. So, since he was here and we have only ever talked at car shows or on Facebook, I thought I'd grab the mics and let him tell a few stories!! I mean, it was his birthday....

We discussed his 5 year 97 Eclipse GSX build and how he became a car guy! He was drawn to turbo Eclipse's when his mom would street race her GS-T with him in the car as a kid. And how his dad would daily drive a 63 Chevy truck!!

He will definitely be on again in the future, he has some great stories!

Guys, meeting other Youtubers was also part of our plan for RMRW 2.0!! We met Eric (Destroyer1320) and his brother Dan (Dan IT Guy) on the second day in Topeka after they had driven 1150 miles ONE-WAY to make RMRW as Road Weekers! They were always in great spirits and got to watch all the racing they wanted, lol!! 

They also have helped tremendously with the Narxoleptic youtube channel so we go over a few tips and tricks to help you grow your youtube channel, no matter the size!!

Go follow these guys!!!

Matt (and his team) host Rocky Mountain Race Week and for the first time, Race Week 2.0!! If you have lived under a rock, RMRW is a week long endurance event for your racecar!! You, and a co-pilot if you have one, load up in your racecar and drive to a different track each day, typically covering 250-325 miles between tracks! 

Matt tells us about how the event began after competing in a Hot Rod Drag Week and wanted an event that felt more inclusive for racers that weren't using big budgets and corporate sponsors to build their racecars. "Grassroots event" is used a lot when talking about this event, and it sums up the feel very well. Everyone talking to everyone and being immersed in cars for an entire week meant we were not talking politics or religion!! There are 13 classes to get in with Index classes as slow as 14.0!! 

Matt and his team can be seen talking to racers everyday of the event and answered a ton of questions about the #NarxKart leading up to the event! I'd almost bet that more people talk to June than talk to Matt, because she is "THE Person" you show your daily time slip for your entered class. 

I can't thank them enough for providing a second race this year which allowed us the opportunity to even attend.

Rocky Mountain Race Week Day 2 recap - 215 mile drive, tire clearance issues for the #NarxKart, so so tired from only getting 3 hours of sleep. 

Dino Cardella tells the story of how he and the crew met Carl Werner on the 2014 Hot Rod Drag Week. Over the next few years Carl became a good friend and this trip was a tribute to him. Carl passed away from a battle with lung cancer in 2017. Since RMRW 2.0 was going to hit the same tracks from Drag Week 2014, Dino and the boys decided to bring the LS2 powered Ventura that was once Carl's car!! I'll let Dino tell the rest, but let's just say they had fun and made great memories!!
