From wrenching on everything to starting his own diesel shop, Black Magic Performance, to competing in his third AMSOIL Ultimate Callout Challenge event, C**t Carter joins the podcast to talk his about his Cummins and what he expects from this year's event. From putting down a 2nd place finish his first AMSOIL UCC and then improving the next year in the drag race and dyno portion of the challenge, this man has left it all out there. Fracturing his foot from his piston blasting apart on the dyno and spending all night trying to mke sure the truck could make the sled pull portion, this man embodies a no quit attitude. C**t has what it takes to win it and when you hear his story and what he's dealt with this past year, you can't help but root for him. Good luck C**t!

Mike Brown is back on the show ahead of the AMSOIL Ultimate Callout Challenge 2026! This will be Mike's third go round with the event. Mike has been hooked on diesel since his first truck purchased in 2016 and you'll hear in this episode his passion is even stronger now. Mike first competed in 2024 and he came out with a bang, placing on the podium with a 3rd place finish. Mike came out in 2025 and shaved a full half second off his drag race time, put down bigger dyno numbers, and pulled the sled farther than in his rookie event the year prior. We think Mike and his Cummins are going to push the limits even more so!
