In March, YouTube blogger Emelia Hartford set a record for the fastest passing of a standard drag racing distance of a quarter-mile on the Chevrolet Corvette C8. Then the car was able to cope with this task in a record 9 seconds 41 milliseconds. However, after a while, her record was broken.

Instead of giving up, she saw an opportunity for new content for her YouTube channel. As a result, she presented a plan for getting her title back. And in her new video, viewers have the opportunity to watch the implementation of this very plan.

How Did The Preparation Go?

They started it all with the testing of the engine recoil of their "Mimi" car on the dyno. The goal was to get four-digits there. As one of the guys told, "I don't even consider a car, a car unless it makes four-digits." After a dozen of tries, the guys started being afraid of the car repeating the situation with pickup's enormous dyno explosion. As a result, they could not get the desired number - the maximum they had was around 950.

Next, they started working exactly on the Corvette. The first problem they started solving is the wastegate. It was broken so Emelia decided just to get a new one. After this, she swapped the plug wires of the car.

New Wheels Were Bought For Both Cars

One the next day, she got new weals for the first car they were testing on the dyno. They were sure that they could not get their desired 4 digits because of the wheels. They actually got several sets of wheels so that they had plan A and plan B.

Next comes the change of the wastegate, which they got on the next day only. After this, some other small technical works on cars were done. The video finishes with the exhausted Emelia telling about her close future plans. In the next several days, the tracks are waiting for her, which means a lot of cool content for her fans.

Emelia has already been able to prove that she finishes her affairs to the end and achieves her goals. Last time, she was able to set a new record of 9.41 seconds, which made a lot of impression on gearheads.
