Today on Cleetus McFarland's channel, a visit to Fast Forward Race Engines unveils a monumental investment in the burnout Fleet. Joe and the team have acquired five powerful Big Block Chevys, boasting top-notch Dart components for enhanced performance. These engines are built for durability and reliability, aiming to minimize breakdowns and maximize track time. With a focus on torque at low RPMs and minimal maintenance requirements, the team is gearing up for a new era of burnout competitions.

The discussion around the engines delves into their specifications, including the use of alcohol and potential future upgrades like a blower at low boost levels. The engines are meticulously designed for longevity, with a target of multiple events per engine if handled correctly. Cleetus expresses admiration for the engines' robustness and the meticulous work done at the shop. The team's meticulous approach to engine building is evident in their focus on specialized components and tuning for optimal performance.

As the Big Blocks are loaded onto the truck, the excitement for the upcoming burnout competitions is palpable. The team's strategic planning extends to the Transmissions, with turbo 400s from FTI equipped with transbrakes for added versatility. The team plans to assign each engine to a specific burnout car to ensure a variety of sounds and performance on the track. With a vision of reduced maintenance and increased reliability, the team looks forward to a thrilling season ahead. Gratitude is expressed to the suppliers involved, with a teaser for future builds using Motion Race Works parts.
