With the frequency of your videos, you must get to the races nearly every weekend if not more often than that some weeks. I noticed something on each of the British race cars that I've never seen before. At 6:15 and 7:05 you can see a little pouch zip tied to the frame rail right behind the right-side tire. While ulcerative colitis is typically more severe than bacterial colitis, my wife can sympathize with Kasey. She is finally getting better after dealing with it for a full month with two visits to urgent care and one to the emergency room. She slept much of the day in addition to all night with no appetite and most of what she ate passing right through her. (Sorry if that's a little graphic for your channel.) Anyway, thanks for putting up with the heat to get some more interesting conversations for your viewers.

Grew up on Georgian Bay. Many times would take boat into 30,000 islands in calm water and come out to hugh swells and wind in 14 foot boat. Best times ever. Loved watching Lakers and Keewatin and Assiniboia go by and would yell for my parents to look out.

More great interviews. I never heard of Kasey Ziebold before, but what a great story. Glad that she made it through that scary ordeal and is coping with her health issues as best she can. She seems like total package, brains, beauty, a hard worker and can drive a race car to boot. And who would have ever though there would be two British sprint car drivers racing at Fremont. I like to think I can hold my own, but that Ryan Harrison looks like one tough dude, I don't think I'd want to wreck him! Brian Smith's story is cool too. Modern day NASCAR and Indycar are lacking drivers like him. I think that disconnect is one of the reasons fan interest isn't what it used to be for those series. Regardless, racing on all levels (especially the grassroots level) has so many cool human interest stories, some which aren't even known to fans that watch those particular drivers race, so thank you very much for sharing some of them.

Another cool video. Unlike the other dirt tracks (I've been to Toledo a couple times) you visited and videoed this year, I've actually been to Fremont. I was crewing for Mike Harmon at Toledo and decided at the last minute to go watch some sprint cars. I don't remember much about it, except the track was relatively flat and there was lots of wheel spin and that still seems to be the case. They also ran a dash race of some type where 410's, 360's and 305 sprints all raced together and the 410's extra hp didn't make much difference. I think a 360 won and the 305's held their own. Anyways, cool interview with Cap Henry (he did mention Sammy as his top 3 greatest!). I didn't really know much about him other than seeing his cool name in results over the years. Safe to say he was doing all he could to win the race!.Also nice to see Sean Rayhall running good. A guy I remember from the Road to Indy from a road racing background that went sprint car racing. I find it amusing he was a protege of Graham Rahal and actually drove for them, I think in sports cars?

ziebold I belive I have heard the name but dont know her well, a lab tech and a degree in robotics not anything to sneeze at though dang, almost up there in brain power as taylor ferns the lawer and silvercrown driver, and derick bischak who has a degree in enginering from rose hulman in terre haute a very prestigious school even more the purdue and that is one the the top in the nation if not world. would not have known sprints were a big thing in the uk, I know they have some turf racing, I know drag racing has a good following, if you watch santa pod's drag racing lots of people watch that and the coverage and commenting is grade a for not being a national us network or the budget of one, though even gforce showing sprints at oshweeken beats many of the flo broadcasts, as far as commenting when a wreck happens and knowing the ins and outs of the differant cars, the resolution is better, and the dronework is also better, though I do like the commenter for usac and high limit they are getting better, and the pit reporters for usac are good, I seen Christy Bemmes many times in the pits, she of course is enguaged to racer CJ Leary but there are times flo needs better camera work. dirt vision is pretty good and I love the pleasant voice of the announcer for the world of outlaws and keeps on the race pretty well. its interesting to see 2 from the uk at the same race though, the one is really young he seemed a little on the spot but sounds older then 14 with that deep voice. speaking of terre haute are you going to the summar classic I am planning on being there and bringing someone from work with me prob his first openwheel race or at least silvercrown I think, I want to see at least one race at the action track in case racing goes away as its been spotty for several years but they are having two of the new mavrick indiana wing series races there and several sprint car nights, but last year when they were having promotor problems it was said half the fairboard wanted to keep auto racing and half wanted to do away with it but there are those that like the multi times a year income that racing brings from it, as for me its the only dirt track big enough in indiana for silver crown racing, want to see at least one dirt silvercrown race here while I still can. hope to see you there I know its a long drive though, hope it dont rain out.

I always enjoy your coverage of the racing itself, but the real highlights of your videos are the conversations with the people in the pits. You must carefully pick your times to approach drivers, crew members, car owners, etc. It never seems like the person you're talking is anxious to end the conversation. You must have a good sense of how much time you should take when everyone is busy with their race prep.
@HistoryMysteryManКүн бұрын
Thanks friend. You have an uncanny ability to recognize what it takes to do this. Part of my secret is getting there early. I'm often there well before race teams arrive. It's much easier to talk with people before shit hits the fan. I try to make it fun for the interviewee too. Careful balance on how much time to take. Again...earlier the better. Now if I could just figure out how to get more people to watch my videos...HMM
