A Super Chaotic Night At Knoxville Raceway!

[@wait4dl]

your sister is not replaceable for your team. you need to remind her how important she is to the TEAM!

[@BKCLEO]

Drive north to Lakefield MN and talk to Woodke Engines.... Lots of 410 Knoxville experience... Legendary power!!!!

[@alanstackhouse2939]

Keep digging Tanner.Your family and crew are awesome!😊

[@melabshier5812]

Kiddo, you dug yourself out of an unfortunate situation. That was a positive. Just the start of the trip. Build on each night you race. 👍👍

[@michaelroden7823]

You guys don't need a Crew Chief, that little blonde haired dynamo you call Carly gets the job done. Look forward to more video's

[@drakenobrim901JasonF]

Oh the racetrack engine swaps… slip yoke and then it’s gravy… Carly is an amazing person… God bless her skills

[@michaellane1316]

Carly Rocks...! Great job Tanner. It is hard to set a car when you cannot get the info beforehand. It is all just for the notebook, preparing for each time down the track is merely evidence purchased when in the seat. I would say that the team did good job in making adjustments for what was considered how the track would be in the main. It evidently worked enough to move you forward. Working with what you have at any given time will catapult you no matter where you go. Alwyas nice to have the stars line up a time or two but in reality, seat of the pants, intuition, wisdom and some good ole, gitter done attitude works when all else fails, at least you will have given your best, smile and say, "Next Time"....!

[@dougscott8161]

Hi, Tanner, scratch to 14th is a pretty great run for Knoxville, especially on only your second try. Carly is sure indispensable on your crew, she just pitches in and seems to be getting the most work done. God Bless and stay safe.

[@skepticusmaximus184]

Absolutely brilliant Tanner. I can't believe you and your crew change an entire engine in the pits between races. I'd have to sit down for a beer after changing a spark plug. 🔌 Cheers. 🍺😂 👍

[@davidhenson6591]

Tanner sounded a bit on the lean side I'd fatten the barrel valve to flats and definitely take some gear out in car audio sounded like it was hanging it's toungue out

[@davidwalker9188]

From 22nd to 14th at Knoxville is a good run especially on a backup motor good job the more laps return at Knoxville the better you will get and then when you get back home you will really know the difference

[@tfatcher]

From a loyal Ohio fan, I call that race a victory. From dead last, you raced to your original qualifying postion. Saved an engine from total dstruction. Installed the back-up engine; and from dead last, you raced to your original qualifying postion. A nice days work! ✌✌

[@howardwest2707]

Awesome showing despite the troubles you had with the motor. Keep charging to the front.

[@johncarter1137]

Great job by the entire crew. I hope things go better in the next race.

[@livyyy_racing]

Good luck at the 410 and 360 Knoxville nationals

[@rockinracer]

Living the Dream, it is hard, Racing is a great sport, includes up and downs from moment to moment. Keep Rocking and Racing.

[@johnvandello5917]

Tanner, you are going to be one heck of a driver. You've already made me a fan of yours. Can't wait to see you at the Nationals and you have such a bright future ahead. I wish you the very best of luck in all you do. 🏁🏁🏁

[@MsMoose1979]

Your sister busts her behind as a crew member! She rocks ! Sorry for the issues.

[@ann-marieabbott470]

Poor Carly sidelined again, what about her driving career when she has so much potential?

[@jeffhausmann7561]

​@@ann-marieabbott470She really enjoys this part of it as well, trust me! 👍😁

[@miked9788]

Good family and good racers. I say a little prayer for the drivers safety each time I watch. Sprint cars are, hands down the best racing on the planet! Good luck on the Nats!

[@kend6232]

Again, I love how you're always discussing the technical details, no excuses, good insights, and a great team behind you. Love the trip so far, welcome to the Midwest, come back to Lakeside in KC soon :) Good luck at the Nationals, we'll keep watching!

[@kevinkelly5430]

Good showing for having to swap engines and not getting to heat race. Looking forward to watching you run in person this weekend.

[@shawnfollmer4491]

Great job! You do have the best sister on the planet. Carley Rocks!

[@jimmyj244820]

Sorry you had to change motors but I think it shows what can really happen in big time racing great job team 🎉

[@carterc1290]

Thank you so much Tanner I was the redhead

[@dongamer1237]

Great job Knoxville is a very hard place to come from the back, nice first run you'll do good stay safe from Minnesota 😎👍 14:38

[@jimgifford3386]

Getting laps....moving forward....rolling it back into the trailer....nice job!

[@nathangannon5933]

Don't be too hard on yourself Tanner it's your first time on one of the toughest dirt track in the world. You gon education on the track and that's invaluable. Great job for what you we're able to run. This is the video you should have said "This Sucks". The future looks bright for you.

[@AndyGood-g4i]

Good luck on your Midwest tour. I know it would be an insane drive, but it would be great to see you in Central PA (especially Port Royal) sometime.

[@nathanfisher1826]

Great job, hopefully things get better!! Welcome to the Midwest!!

[@garynkey9430]

One of the nicest youngest sprint car driver ever Yes he's so kind. He has a lot of talent. He just needs to find the talent good. Racer, good luck at the 360 Nationals!

[@jerrycampbell6181]

Hey THR DID GREAT !!! YOU PLAY THE HAND WERE DELT AN MAKE THE BEST OF IT ! YOU HAVE TO WATCH THE HUMIDITY OUT HERE !!!! GOD BLESS !!!

[@jaroniseminger2437]

My dream came true to watch you in person even new your blew your motor lol I stayed to the end to pick up a hat and shirt from your sister hope you come back

[@burlap5556]

👍 considering all of the adversity, very respectable showing

[@bradinch1563]

great idea coming a week early, good luck, love this track

[@joealbert7773]

Fantastic results for a hectic night! You were taking it to them. I wonder if any family has more laps at Knoxville than the McCarl family. I bought two sprints from old Lenard McCarl.

[@chadhall5921]

You looked good bud! I’ve been there a couple times and there isn’t anything in the country that’s even close to that place it’s so impressive and awesome. Just keep in mind that place is hard on engines. Can’t wait to see you run the nationals

[@tjsassaman3576]

Looked good out there in the feature all things considered!! I agree with you, would’ve been good to see you rip a few laps on the bottom to get a feel for it. How is it running the cushion there? Do you need to brake much? It sounded like you feather the throttle slightly on entry but pretty much hammer down from there!! Just curious as I haven’t seen a ton of in car footage from Knoxville. Great video as always, thanks for sharing and you guys keep ripping!!!

[@eddieparis6739]

Good job. Thanks for the video

[@haroldtucker239]

For the way your night started to the way you and your team finished it shows alot glad I was there to see it

[@carolinaghost5451]

I THINK YOU DID GREAT, KEEP ON LOOKING FORWARD, GOOD LUCK THIS COMING WEEKEND

[@jethrog4549]

Good night for everyone. Worked hard. You said it, the car’s in one piece.

[@johnjohnson6094]

Are you able to get that engine fixed being on the road?

[@tylerbrooks6191]

Great work man!!! I use to race 360s at Knoxville 2014 15. Definitely best track in the world!

[@charliewhite3992]

Get all the info wrote down so you can see what the car did and the tires did and make some more changes next week good luck have fun don't get lost in all the corn lol

[@robertlyman2278]

Great video!!! Good Luck in the Nationals Tanner👍👍👍

[@andrewmorrison4298]

Great drive. Well done 👍

[@gregmitchell4619]

Awesome attitude! Course awesome Team also. Seat time at Knoxville.

[@beckyenfield1103]

i live 15 minutes south of knoxville, really cool having ya come out🤟🏻

[@davidvanbrunt4233]

That track will make a man outta you, place IS fast !!!! You CAN run with the big dogs, you and the crew(family) are busting your tails....great efforts !!!

[@bgd5339]

Looked like the second engine started smoking also. Did you hurt it?

[@RegularJoes]

Safe travels

[@darylwebb198]

Hold your head high young man , great team work ,

[@thomasmiller815]

Sounded like you had the wrong gearing

[@gentoolive]

Love that track, never raced it but was in the stands a few times.

[@davidthefootballguy9899]

Good job tanner

[@roguewarrior9957]

If you burned up a piston in the first motor you need to rethink 1/2 mile tracks on your engine setup. It sounded to me like you were turning a ton of rpms in the hot laps and on a 1/2 track your 410 is running full-timing advance for a much longer time than back home on a small track...Hence the motor could be leaning out too much.

[@frankisfunny2007]

14th place isn't terrible for not being used to a type of track like Knoxville! At least you have some hiccups before the Gigantic Dance of the Knoxville Nationals!

[@marynorthcutt3539]

Met u guys at last year's Chilli BOWL LET'S GO.

[@BillMeyerComm]

Great start! Just be sure to take care of those motors if you want to make it thru the Nationals...

[@snturner10]

Looked pretty good to me. Passed 5 cars on first lap. Can you get another engine for nationals? I know you have several nights of racing in this area.

[@jasonlavere5071]

Keep building that notebook. Don't sweat the results yet 😉

[@jimmcvey7812]

Are you going to come to burlington and race with the all Stars Friday night the 21st

[@charlesbryan3121]

Can't wait to meet you guys in a few weeks I am so hype

[@allenkarnes29]

Alright buddy thank you so much just wondering how you been doin out East boss! Btw what a killer run you had at ol’ Skagit speedway way to go you ran with the big dogs like it was nothin! Great job you and your whole family

[@rwendell0912]

Great job

[@BrandisManLCM1011]

Tanner my homie you have a bright future. Clay from mobile Alabama

[@joeisacoward5372]

crazy, I was watching this from you on board camera. you passed a bunch of cars early, then got VERY complacent. 1 thing I'm sure you know is when u start at the back their is ZERO time to get to the front. GOTTA GOOOOO

[@jeffomspaugh6691]

Great job. Blind and gained 8 or 9 cars.

[@supermichael213]

Hey that’s stuff out of the way now and win it all in August!!

[@stevepappa6336]

SURE YOU HAVE ANOTHER MOTOR THE FIRST ONE IS TOAST.JUST KEEP DOING WHAT YOUR DOING GET LAPS AND AT THE END PUT IT ALL TOGETHER AND GO FOR IT GOOD LUCK STEVE@PAM HOPE MOTOR NOT HURT TO BAD !!??

[@jasonlong3929]

Pray motor ain't hurt to bad

[@robertcharles1026]

Hope you haven't hurt your primary engine to much. Your team are awesome in getting the engine changed. Go get them over the next few weeks.

[@ThatsBadTV]

I cannot wait till the Knoxville nationals !!

[@Spike-sk7ql]

Knoxville is not for the faint hearted, and you definitely showed that. You also overcame what she threw at you and finished. Great job for your first time there! Thats your sister? Shes gonna make some guy very happy one day. A wife that not only likes dirt racing, but will help out on the car as well?!?!

[@islandcharlie7132]

Welcome to Iowa.

[@davevaughn7057]

When I did this comment, I didn’t watch the whole video yet. Starting in the back row you see how good your talent is . hopefully your set up is pretty decent. it’s racing.🔥🇺🇸💯 little gear change would’ve been nice for the top side that’s a longer route . your whole crew did great that track is sweet.

[@ryanjacobs4985]

You beat a lot of guys that race there every weekend nothing to hang your hat about I was at the track but my kid had his asthma flare up from the smoke of the fires so we left early was hoping to get to see you race in person but all I got was time trials

[@allenknight555]

Got to hand it to your team getting everything swapped over so you could run the main. Getting seat time there will sure help in the future.

[@catherinesullivan641]

Good rolling with what happens👍 Can you give us crew names so we can support them too! (We know your dad and Carly!)

[@jeffhausmann7561]

There is his buddy Skyler, and of course the head of the bunch, his mom Tara who is just the sweetest merch mom you could ever meet! ❤

[@CamboLivin]

Keep hard charging!

[@Kevin_747]

Are you down to one engine or do you have a third?

[@peytonwhite8128]

HIS DAD WAS WEARING MY SHIRT!!!!!

[@peytonarner8445]

You are a good race

[@kingranch2543]

Twisting rpms to much? Sounds like your on kill. No idea😅 hope you have a good time at Knoxville! Good luck!

[@railroadguy438]

Good luck. 👍🤠🇺🇸

[@mutantryeff]

If you see Donny Schatz, ask him on camera if he'd apologize to firefighters for thinking it is funny to pull fire-alarms at hotels/motels? He made a 'Mobil 1' YT video laughing about it.

[@michaellane1316]

Donny Who......? Ride the wave Tanner, regardless of any night's outcome, remember that this is what makes you smile....!

[@saltybildo9448]

Get em kid

[@ParkerDahl]

I live in Iowa

[@mutantryeff]

Sad about the smoke issue.

[@jimgeiger2468]

Passing 8 is commendable. Hope the engine is fixable. If just the 6 hole is fouled, valve guides is my hope.

[@marvinturnmire7406]

I was thinking valve seal, I noticed the smoke in the Feature too, so hopefully they do a plug check on that engine as well.

[@jeffhausmann7561]

​@@marvinturnmire7406The smoke in the feature looked to be maybe just a tad overfull on oil. These 410's seem to do that if you overfill them any at all.

[@ChrisCoxGaming]

how much banking does a track need to not be called flat because Knoxville has 7 degrees

[@michaellane1316]

Come to Skagit in Washington. Something in the nieghborhood of 22, at least back in the nineties.

[@jeffhausmann7561]

I love the Skagit track!

[@bren9128]

Go out there and with them nationals tanner I’ll be there to watch you❤

[@mattgrell279]

Not to from home for me like 2 hours south good luck and give them hell

[@Rowdy_fan8]

Do you ever get nervous before a race?

[@markwilson9030]

Great job should’ve been the hard charger.😊

[@deanbanks3392]

Way to respond to adversity.

[@mutantryeff]

Better yet, have a track fireman ask Donny Schatz to apologize on camera.

[@4WheelerBros-hj2fi]

I live only about two hours from Knoxville

[@d1_grxnt]

Tanner can we collaborate at the chili bowl?

[@d1_grxnt]

???

[@SF-ku2hp]

Maybe the Dude could come out and give you some pointers on the bottom.
