[@richardwood9309]

I am glad to see your Father was there to support and help.

[@jaysom2240]

Not sure what all went down and its none of anyone business, but it seems as though dirt daddy is trying to get more involved with the team again.

[@brianholt5042]

Awesome seeing everyone together

[@ericg9078]

Heck of a race good job

[@jerrylewis4509]

Great job good to see all of y'all together keep up the good work

[@cliftonshomeimprovements7971]

Thank you that was some of the best racing I have ever seen y'all do I bet if the steering wheel would have been tight heater got water to board positions he started out really fast I thought the tires with away but it was the steering wheel that boy could drive the hell out of a car I hope you run into y'all weekday down the road we could do some door head 2 door handle race

[@joesanders652]

Best of all was seeing the family there together working. Just seems to feel right when dirt daddy is there

[@DjGibsonRacing]

Joe Sanders I agree! Seems like there has been some tension there. Hoping it’s just coming across right there and everything is all good. Love watching these boys!

[@Slinging.Wrenches]

Tension or not, daddy is always there to throw a wrench and help either of them boys win

[@2DSTORMS]

Crew Chief....Dirt Daddy!

[@2DSTORMS]

@@DjGibsonRacing I see more tension between Jesse and Joseph. Seems Jesse does not want to listen to Joseph and his knowledge of late model racing, maybe not, just what I see on the videos, but love the family atmosphere they convey

[@jaysom2240]

@@2DSTORMS I noticed that too, but i think they are just such good buddies that comes across that way. Could be wrong though.

[@bgd5339]

Yeah! Dirt Daddy made it! Glad to see the family back together again!

[@rickgordon4081]

Yes!

[@Retired70]

I thought it was a really good race. I’d put Joseph up against any off those drivers all things being equal. As usual hats off to your crew, couldn’t ask for any better . Great camera work.

[@alltoohuman26]

I'd take Davenport every time, even in equal cars.

[@garyraper9278]

Yea i would take Superman over all else! Home boy from Blairsville Ga. Love HTF Gang, but gotta roll with home boy. Go get em guys.

[@bjwoolbright7708]

1 request guys. Miss seeing the prayer b4 the feature. Its something that makes this channel stand out to me.

[@2DSTORMS]

Yes, add more of it to the videos

[@austinlewis1109]

I agree me and my whole family race and before any of us get on the track we say a prayer and when I first seen there videos and seen them doing the same thing definitely made this channel stand out

[@SonoranAstro]

100%

[@jeffryjones8539]

Hunting the Front with the Big Dawgs is a little different than the home track. I hope some big sponsors took notes. Small family operation and a top ten finish. God bless you all!! Keep hunting the Front!!

[@larry2rusty]

Well that was a GOOD Showing tonight. 👍 It was good seeing your mom & Dad with you. I Know they gave you a🙏. I'm thinking you moved up your left rear Bars 🤔 & It was the steering wheel that got Fat🤣 & that's your story. 👌 Plus you out Q 49 car & had him running behind you for some time. & To get a Top 10 out of the field is telling me 🤨 Your way ready to go run with these Boy's that got Big Big money's. I just hoping some one with some Big MONEY is taking notes & may give you a call. 🙏 Even if it's someone that just WANTS to Help. Someone with a Business that's looking to get it's Name out there to more people in your location. Good Job all around. 👍 Your Fan in Calif. ✌️

[@SemiErnie]

I'd say the steering wheel was an issue , good job on 8th . I was tense just sitting here watching lol

[@threeaxis359]

I see one thing wrong otherwise awesome job all the way around. Someone needs to step up and give this young man some major backing. This will allow Joseph to be more aggressive and not make him drive conservatively to save his equipment for this is all he has. Once this problem is corrected Joseph can compete and win against these guys. I was cheering Joseph on while watching the video. Would be awesome if someone could back Joseph enough that he can have a spare car and motor then you will see him win against these guys.

[@zacharyradford5552]

There’s been guys who haven’t had all that and still win. It’s just show up and do work.

[@aarongaston8782]

Been waiting for this all day

[@djjohnson1291]

Was a good race and glad dirt daddy was thare as well I like when everyone thare togater

[@Misisipiflyer]

New tires every time you run with the big boys is a must.

[@marvinalancornell8275]

FOR SURE!!!!

[@Misisipiflyer]

You must think, drive, setup just like they do. The tire bill and body damage mean nothing, you worry about that after the race. You gotta pay to play. Been there, done that

[@zacharyradford5552]

@@Misisipiflyer Well that’s the thing when the big dogs show up they ain’t there to play. Different between a kid with a dream and a man with a job it’s all business.

[@stevekennedy5802]

Great job y’all !!! You would have been 6th if you would have tighten the steering wheel . Very proud of y’all!!👍🤙👏

[@garymann5206]

Follow them to Gaffney, SC. Y’all will fall in love and wanna move up here. Love to see y’all run this track. Clay and high bank “the place your mama warned you about “

Not first, but can I get a like. (Thank you so much for the likes)

[@thxman1968]

I got you fam

[@bjwoolbright7708]

Couldn't be happier to see DirtDaddy and momma joiner with yall . Hope this means things are getting back to normal. Also that track is a true bullring. Hope yall are planning on making a return trip to the Mag next month. My kids are hoping to meet yall again there . If it helps u decide , I think Joseph has proven he can run with the Lucas oil boys

[@gorrla5897]

By the way great job Joseph I saw the race on dirt on dirt.

[@blake2549]

Same

[@joenagy9974]

Way to stay after it Joseph !!! Impressive drive . Does everybody understand how tough it is traveling to different tracks and being competitive with some of the best there is ...... I say great job guys ... Thumbs up !!! That surface made my back hurt ......

[@xblitz16x2]

Hi love ur vids

[@austinrich9606]

“Cause he got fat during quarantine”... I feel ya man.

[@TruckandTravel]

austin rich I feel like I gained 20 lbs

[@mikepowell134]

Should have put that new tire on the right rear for some bite man.

[@jerrylewis4509]

Man just to be able to run with those guys is a big accomplishment dirt daddy good to see there man that car was flying

[@MrMadkaw400]

Shout out to all the youngsters who help out and the lady’s for all there work in prep

[@sixteenstone007]

Joseph is a Wheelman...to come out and run with the big boys on used tires and loose steering column says a lot. Awesome video and editing job too! I liked the switching between camera views on that slide job! Great to see Dirt Daddy back helping the boys in the pits.

[@CORNDODGER]

That was a guud race Looked to me you are not rotating on the entry Them boys that got past could PITCH it in there with a lot of Rotation and have a STRAIGHT SHOT from mid turn down the Straight but hey I stopped dirt racing in 76 so I cant really say with these new fangled cars and how they work THANKS TO ALL WHO HAVE AND TO THOSE WHO ARE AND TO THE ONES WHO WILL KEEP AMERICA GREAT

[@joezeit7391]

those were some seriously fast cars, good job team!

[@andyb9767]

Glad to see Mr.Mrs Joiner part of the show. I had fun watching. I Appreciate it.

[@alkennedy1124]

Good job guys, thanks praise Jesus for your vlogs, thanks BigAl California.

[@jwr7379]

Just because big names are there doesnt mean they gonna cut you any slack. You got to race with them, get up on that wheel and throw bows with them. Aint none of it easy racing with 5 or 6 of those guys that race week in week out. Grit your teeth and go door to door with them. Seen Davenport, Moyer, Shirley etc those guys are not gonna cut you slack. It makes you better. Dont stop chasin em. Run with them. Congrats on 8th. I thought you were a competitor but that track was rough. Throw some bows and get in there!! #HTFNATION GOD BLESS!!🤘

[@KevinHowell501]

Great job...joseph..man your getting better each time out..them guys have alot of money in them cars...your program is stout..

[@buddyhirshfield5970]

You were fast as Davenport he was better on restarts good job

[@howardwest2707]

How tore up were the tires since you ran old rubber for that race? Between the steering column being loose and the old rubber that's a lot to overcome against bigger teams. Especially since you know they were probably not running tires that were previously run. They maybe have been scuffed for break in but thats about it. Awesome job considering the circumstances.

[@michaellukasiewicz9683]

You guys are one step away from being Champs.🏁🇺🇸Mike 33 Mi.

[@davidmckinzie6009]

Great race boys , Joseph you did one great driving race. I live in San Diego area and we don’t have much dirt out here. Enjoy your videos very much, good luck and be safe

[@staceybowen8129]

That’s my Boy !! Racing with some of the best in the business and holding your own!! Those guys race 3 to 4 time a week and you race one time. Week maybe and run that good , hold that head high and stick that chest out ! Damn proud of you!!

[@justinseivers2593]

Are the other cars racing on new tires for the feature? You guys keep up the good work and maybe you land someone that will buy new ones for you so you compete even better.

[@travisrickett5681]

I know you have a budget, but two new tires would have helped. I hope no dirt got into the engine. Keep us posted, and welcome back Dirt Daddy we missed you.

[@larryb5260]

Man alive!!! That was fun to watch and boy were you moving JO JO! I hope to meet and watch you guys in person some day! Good luck and god bless.

[@daivdrodrigues8957]

Good job on driving, Good to see you haven’t lost your touch on the track!!!🏎

[@MikeE-hb8zb]

Great race!!! Even better than that, the family was there with yall! Hope that motor is all good.. shes a good one!!! Man Davenport looked like he got shot out of a cannon there... Ill tell you what though, it speaks volumes to be able to to run 8th on old tires!!! Great video too!!!!!

[@mikedavisclassiccountry8704]

You're running with the big dogs Great job Hunt the Front I'm proud of you All 👍👍👍

[@d.j.norris1680]

The restarts need work. Got a top 5 car it seems but are like -15 on restarts.

[@adoggalderman9738]

Congratulations Joseph on the Finish 🏁🏁🏁🏁👍👍👍👍

[@briangodwin27c]

Got her in the box running and in 1 piece. Top 10. Solid field. It was a good night!

[@terrymonroe6490]

I think you looked good Joseph, not bad for a steering column loose like it was ... Raced like a champ 😊

[@bruceosborne2014]

If you were in a rocket chassis you might could win a race they are way faster

[@Dirt00racer]

Great run with a top ten. Congratulations. Nice to see Mom and Dad with the group.

[@blainegoerl7499]

Great effort guys, wonder if a new rr tire would have helped out

[@jordy-mo5fb]

Joseph is a shoe, he deserves to run up front. Looks like you figured out how to get off the corner and not get pulled down the chutes. You're getting closer guys!

[@johnnygarrett3030]

Great job. I actually thought your tires went away. I see it was just your arms went away. I knew when you said you got the DRAIME engine you wouldn't be disappointed. Best engine I ever ran. Congratulations on a great run.

[@trevorfout4759]

Loose steering wheel probably didn't help but looked like he was running out off tire at the end

[@jongolliher3806]

I thought a tire or tires giving up toward the end also after watching dirt on dirt and here. Joe looked super smooth and I was impressed how he handled the 10 car at this track. He said a number of times how much harder it was to drive and I guess I'd expect that with 8oo + hp. Good job everybody!!!

[@gta5jamiedomineypro605]

Good job yall should come back on November 13 through 15 for 10000 to win

[@smittyfixes8723]

I enjoy following your races on dirt on dirt then watching the behind the scenes on youtube. Great channel, family and team.

[@timothyivester1626]

Great racing against the big boys. Love the videos

[@kennethdejardin795]

You guys did a great job you ran with some fast cars that have been raceing late models for a long time and you loaded up your car in one piece

[@racerdad6455]

Joseph, how hard has it been gettin used to almost twice the power and a whole new rpm range?!?!🏁

[@velo8784]

Looked like every re-start cost Joseph spots. Once he was going again he was fast.

[@danjcan]

Wonderful watching you drag davenport around awhile....lol....until he hit his Nitrous switch......

[@craigjohnson6391]

Glad I finally got to see ya'll race in person. Yes, I did drive down a random dirt road on the way there.

[@OldNo7Garage]

Great run! Kept your nose clean and ran a good race with 40 of the best! Good job boys!

[@rodconner9079]

Great job Joseph, that was awesome and fun!!! Not so sure how that heim came loose on the steering shaft!?! LOL -- Maybe a trip to "Curves" would make a difference! Or next time, swedge the thread a lil against the nut. A bit tight, but to blame on the loose shaft --- that would do it. Not to shabby considering. Love it, love it, love it. Shout out to the crew/hands ... they play an important role which many don't understand. Ya know --- even a different angle ... if someone else were to have footage --- regardless if duplicate ... we'd be sure to watch it (it's a different narrative!). I am sure most all would watch - actually positive! = 3X views! Be Safe

[@clarencerenspak5660]

Agree on all the above! Great job everyone!! I would suggest a view of the feet and pedal action.

[@racerdad6455]

So pumped for y’all that this channel helped you guys get to the big leagues of late model racing!🏁

[@nascar2428]

Those twins are wearing some great t shirts.

[@TruckandTravel]

New sub. Like the Jesus Lives decal and the Trump sticker.

[@EagleRun23]

that right front looked weird to me all race. anyone else? maybe its the camera angle?

[@allisonnelson9032]

Joseph did excellent on old tires !

[@oldschoolhoosier]

Family represents... the heat race was some good driving Joseph...the track looked like it had some holes that developed half way in the race. The steering coming loose didn’t help but 8th was still was not bad for a hard run. Great video Johnathon.

[@jw-zl3zp]

Awesome job of driving Joseph, glad you all didn’t break anything that track was rough. Keep these coming!!!

[@dm231st]

Great job! Top five for sure if with a tight steering shaft and a couple of breaks.

[@jeremycolston8383]

AWESOME JOB GUYS!! That was tough race. Definitely earned the money, absolutely had to be up on that wheel. 3 and 4 looked rough. Great job for the entire crew. Definitely looked easier than the last race, as far as a little more time to work and adjust on it. Hopefully it didn't get dirt down in that awesome motor. When is the old super motor getting back? In case you have to send this back. Great video, and thanks for taking me along. God bless y'all.

[@jamescory3656]

Good job guys

[@bradgarner1507]

Dang he drove his butt off with the wheel like that! Good job

[@charliemoye4442]

Ran a great race! Some quick competition and your keeping up

[@cjschuelke1283]

Joseph actually looked alot smoother and calmer than the rest of the field

[@clarencerenspak5660]

Agree but I think if Joseph got a steering servo the same as Jonathan's new servo (2235 not sure)(slower), (the less mental fatigue during the end of the race) will make Joseph a lot sharper with more energy than his competitors. So he can make quality moves to get near the front during the final 5 laps (and feel more in control - as Jonathan said, he "needed it").....Jessie could also benefit from one too. Jessie's hands are not near as busy on iracing as in the 56 car. Food for thought....Great job by all!!

[@stevenriggleman2150]

Nice job next time get some .new tires

[@DJ-ow9sw]

Oh and it’s great to see the whole family together again

[@markpyles6515]

There’s always mistakes that are made when going over a car between races I’m sure that Johnathan thought the steering shaft was tight. We can all assume or I am sure that you no doubt had a top five car if not a top three. But take it as a learning experience, Joseph did mention in an earlier video that the steering wheel needed adjusted. God Bless you all. I see the number 10 in victory lane very soon. Joseph you are an awesome wheel man. I am glad Dirt Daddy was there, we love our buddy.

[@harteyraydyer6441]

Great race guys. I was so glad to see everyone there. Only one I was missing was Jesse. Hope to see more videos soon. We love you guys. We look forward to the next video. Everyone here in Kentucky says Hello...😁

[@Slinging.Wrenches]

Always loved qualifying, you get out there on a empty track and you just run the hell out of it

[@timrobinson4058]

Pretty good hope no dirt got into motor

[@jwilson5072]

Tires Tires Tires all the front guys run brand new stickers for the main been there done that tires is the most important thing that you're going to carry in that trailer if you're going to compete with them your driving skill is good the car seemed to be good to it just needed some tires to keep you where you wanted to go good job anyway and glad to see dirt daddy with you guys

[@justinseivers2593]

How much would a new set cost? I’m with you if everyone else is running new tires you have no chance of winning.

[@chadhall5921]

Good run boys and good luck on Monday

[@dwayne1655]

Some pretty good racing at the backend of that one, very entertaining and loved the slider that cut the nose off that one car, camera on the back showed just how close racing can get. Great effort and keep digging. Oh and i am missing seeing you guys pray before the racing.

[@stevebastien4787]

Awesome job, especially with a loose steering column, how the heck did Joseph mange. Great to see the family together.

[@JalopyTechnology]

Jack Hewitt always said "Running the bottom is like having a job!"... great job Joseph.

[@adzzoo1234]

Glad to see the family back together. That’s one of the reasons I love watching!! My 78 year old dad is hooked now!

[@charlesmoore504]

With a loose steering wheel it is amazing you did as well as you did . That’s a mighty big distraction, good job Joseph

I was SO SHOCKED TO SEE THE STANDS FULL AND NOBODY WEARING A MASK.!!!! I mean have they found a cure and no one told us in North Carolina. On a brighter note if I was blessed with a lot of $$$ I would buy Joseph a 850Hp Pro Power Motor or Vic Hill. You guys are the best and I enjoy your channel so much, I think you both have Talent.as always. God Bless
