Check out the Caprice PPV giveaway and new merch: https://themurdernova.comMoron Nation Unfiltered is finally back for Episode 17, and we had a LOT to catch up on.We spent what felt like forever at Flyin H for the Midwest Drag Racing Series doubleheader, only for Mother Nature to have other plans. We talk about the rainout, Blue finally making some solid progress, the sketchy big end of the track, and what happens next with the unfinished races.Meanwhile, Aiden went back to Flyin H for Boost & BBQ and came home with another burnout win and $3,000. We also get into what happened with the Blazer at Ice Cream Cruise, burnout car engine setups, dry sump systems, and why we think some of these guys might be making things way more complicated than they need to be.Then we get into the Jimmy Taylor/PDRA turbo controversy, how ridiculously fast radial racing has gotten, and our take on where everything went sideways.And racing isn't slowing down. We've got PSRA at our home track, ShopTruck is headed to an all-truck NO PREP race in Arkansas, and the Murder Nova has one final shot at an NHRA Outlaw Street Wally at the FallNationals in Texas.We also talk about Chapman Custom Baths and Salmon Speedworks coming onboard, what we're changing on the Nova before Texas, LS Fest, the PPV giveaway, and plenty of the normal Moron Nation bullshit along the way.Thanks for watching Episode 17 of Moron Nation Unfiltered!👕Get your official Murder Nova and 187 Customs apparel or order parts for your hotrod at:https://www.themurdernova.comGet your Never Eyewear here:https://neveneyewear.com/?rfsn=8810281.b585c0&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=8810281.b585c0 mTAGSFollow Us!https://www.facebook.com/187Nova/https://www.facebook.com/187customsLLC/https://www.instagram.com/murdernova/https://www.instagram.com/187customs_/https://www.instagram.com/phantom.405/

Moron Nation Unfiltered Episode 16 comes to you from an almost completely empty Brainerd International Raceway following our runner-up finish in NHRA Outlaw Street!Testing the Monday before Brainerd was terrible. The car shook hard, tore up parts and left us heading into the race with more questions than answers. Once we arrived, Brandon and the crew went to work, the car improved nearly every trip down the track and we qualified No. 2.Shawn’s work on the tree paid off when we won an incredibly close semifinal on a holeshot, but Scott earned the final-round win with a .004 reaction time. We break down the entire weekend, what finally made the car happy and why NHRA Outlaw Street appears to be winning over both the racers and the fans.Then come the reality checks.We’re missing Outlaw Armageddon for the first time ever as we prepare for the biggest drag race in the country—the U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis. Shawn will also be signing autographs at the Cruz Pedregon Racing open house before we head to Beech Bend for our first LS Fest East with ShopTruck and Aiden’s GoldMember burnout Blazer.Finally, Shawn addresses the bombshell he dropped in Sunday’s video: Could we really give Blue back?We love racing that car, but we’re essentially trying to fund and operate two Pro Mod-level programs with one crew and a limited budget. We either need more partners, more resources or fewer cars competing for the same time and money.Let us know what you think about the future of Blue, the NHRA Outlaw Street class and where you’re watching or listening to the podcast!👕Get your official Murder Nova and 187 Customs apparel or order parts for your hotrod at:https://www.themurdernova.comGet your Never Eyewear here:https://neveneyewear.com/?rfsn=8810281.b585c0&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=8810281.b585c0 mTAGSFollow Us!https://www.facebook.com/187Nova/https://www.facebook.com/187customsLLC/https://www.instagram.com/murdernova/https://www.instagram.com/187customs_/https://www.instagram.com/phantom.405/
