Cleetus McFarland and the team embark on a mission to transform their car into a lean, mean racing machine. They start by installing the impressive Optic Armor front window, which turns out to be surprisingly lightweight despite its sturdy appearance. Next, they tackle the radiator installation, using some clever JB Welding techniques to ensure a secure fit. With these crucial components in place, they eagerly slide on the carbon fiber front end, a moment they've been eagerly anticipating. The result is nothing short of breathtaking, as the sleek and aggressive appearance of the car is revealed.

But the team's excitement is soon tempered by a realization: they didn't properly calculate the weight loss. Despite their efforts, they have only managed to shed about 100 pounds, falling short of their target. However, undeterred by this setback, they decide to head to the drag strip for some much-anticipated testing. The car performs admirably, consistently clocking in at around 7 seconds in the quarter-mile. With each pass, they make adjustments to the tune and boost levels, fine-tuning the car's performance.

As the day progresses, the car continues to impress, reaching a top speed of a staggering 180 mph. The team is thrilled with the progress they've made and express their gratitude to their hardworking team members. With the upcoming FL2K event on the horizon, they are confident that their car is ready to take on the competition. This episode showcases the dedication, skill, and passion of the Cleetus McFarland team, as they push the limits of their car and prepare to conquer the drag strip.
