CARNAGE - Drag Challenge Ute Build - Part-2

We kick off our build by living out every car guys fantasy - driving into a speed shop and loading up with parts. That's right, we head down to VPW and grab a whole ute load of parts for our Drag Challenge Ute Build.

Street Machine Carnage is all about having fun with cars. Sometimes it's serious performance, sometimes it's crazy fun, but it always interesting and done on a budget.

I keep telling myself that one of these days, I'll buy a car that's in great shape and tell my local parts house "I'll take one of everything".... as my bank account would never support such foolishness, I'll live vicariously through you, Scottie.... love the concept.

Must be serious, used a chain & shackles to lift the block instead of an old seatbelt.

[johnzadkovich]

Not sure how I feel about so much nice new stuff for Scotty and team. I quietly enjoy watching them struggle with secondhand crap. That said, this is going to be a beast.

[gardenwaster]

Drag Challenge is fast becoming the hottest event on the racing calendar, look forward to seeing you move from helping run the event to becoming a driver, thumbs UP

[josephkelly]

That operation at VPW is next level, what a warehouse!!

[toonhead]

This thing is going to be a beast of a hotrod. Good luck with your project.

I'll be really keen to see how the parts go with the torture test of drag challenge, because I've always figured the home-brand RTS and Proflow parts are built more for the budget minded customer than for someone potentially looking at running in the 7s. Testing out parts like diff centres, ignition coils and cylinder heads from RTS and Proflow will either highlight any weaknesses, or prove that they're legit competitors to the established and respected Aus and US built brands.

The choices in life ppl make is fascinating to watch.

[colinmiles]

Great show so far Scotty, and that Dart donk is going to blow away so many on drag challenge. I’m going to be truely impressed on this build and can’t wait for next edition 👊👍💪👌🙏

[stevenloynds]

It's awesome to see what you guys can do with hands tied behind ya back and a budget. Looking forward to see what you guys can do when ya have the opposite. Go hard boys this will be epic.

[JossRickard]

Yeah, it's yet another LS build but I'm really keen to see you do the work, with the goal in mind from the first video and all the gear to do it from the start. You deserve the goodies! Now I understand the talk about budget in previous videos!

[smithy]

A real ute, and a boot full of goodies, that's the way you start a build 🤙

[ashburncitystandup]

Lordy street machine budget is flush Scotty is ballin!!

[cobrin]

hooley dooley, you boys have amped it up, I see the MX5 has given you purpose and motivation to kick this mule in the ass. Can't wait...

[simeonorive]

Good on you Scotty and team grow your channel to this stage. Cant wait to see every episode of this build. I have loved every build but this one will be amazing and appeal to many more viewers especially in our big brown land of Ute loving Aussies.

3 months? ... no time to dawdle! And it always makes me smile to see something that's made local to me ... DART --- Made in Detroit, Michigan U.S.A. ...😎

[nickrynenberg]

I wish I wake up and see all these goodies on my driveway lol
Going to be interesting build 👍

[mandan]

Good to see VPW getting behind you, great company, me and my old man buy gear off them, your channel is great entertainment 👍

[LV-FOURTWENTYSIX]
