[@benjaminrizzo6573]

Whoop Whoop!!!! is the words to say when Billy Pauch comes to a track hes not been to!! in 30 years!!! And Running hard and fast like you know he will!!..Great Showman!!!!Super Driver!🏁🔧🔧🔧🔧🔧😎☕☕

[@oldgrizz8720]

There is so much to like about you. You're beautiful, energetic, articulate, professional, positive, knowledgable, talented, and simply fun to watch. But what impresses me the most about you, is that you aren't afraid to continue filming wearing race dirt on your beautiful face! No one wears it better. You are the consumate spokes person for dirt track racing. Sorry for the bad luck for your dad. Hope the season continues to improve for Bill Sr. Bill Jr. and Mike!

X 1,000!

[@dirttrackuntold]

You’re always so kind. Thank you so much!!

[@arrowkart4j]

Fonda is awesome. We always ran good with our sprintcar at Fonda. Glad to see your Dad moving around. Please send him to Orange County fair speedway he has some unfinished business there and I would love to see him come back. Awesome job Mandee

[@joellajuett1060]

Sense the fixed the whole in one it tends to hold water now. It wouldn't be fonda without a rut or hole on corner entry at one end or the other. BTW at 51 years old I remember your dad from many years ago. Loved watching him again. Reminds me of days of old with him, Jack, Lou, CD, Dave and all the old dogs.

[@dirttrackuntold]

Thank you!

[@bkrutz123]

Good to have you guys back racing with us. Hopefully you'll be back soon!

[@bobmoyer7929]

Going from 19th to 8th in six laps ! I think he could have won it. Great video as always. Thanks Mandee !

[@1776vtgmb]

Long Fonda ramble... We used to call it 5 turns, with the 3rd turn in the dogleg of the back stretch. That is the centuries-old Mohawk Barge Canal part of the Mohawk River back there. Every year, when I was a kid in the mid-50s, there would be modifieds that went off that backstretch dogleg into the canal. Mid '60s.,.. They used to pit in the infield and there was a long concrete road through the middle of the pits from the 1-2 turn to the 3-4 turn. On Wednesday nights, they did 1/8 mile drags on it - you shut off just before the 3-4 dirt and went airborne, landing down past the cow barns. Shirley Muldowney got her start in slingshot dragsters there in the Northeast Speed shop car from Schenectady-Altamont.

Im so behind on videos, but I really love the wrap ups esp from your dad. I grew up watching him race and only met him a handful of times.

[@hankhenninger3330]

Good video. Sad finish. Dad still sounded positive after being towed back to the pits. Good luck next race

[@georgeneher7690]

On a night I needed something uplifting to watch....thanks as always

[@dirttrackuntold]

Aw you’re welcome!

[@richierich396]

Tough break Billy. Still the King of Modifieds tho! Ty 4 uploading Mandee.

[@dennylowe8939]

Keep up the great videos enjoy all of them I would love to see your dad back in a sprint car

[@garyindiana8037]

Bellvale farms creamery located Warwick New York.. voted second best creamery in the United States.. just figured when you love ice cream. 😊.. and thanks again for all you do for the dirt racing community.. keep up the amazing content..❤️

[@dirttrackuntold]

Ohhh I’ll be sure to look into that!

[@1937fordcoupe]

I hope you guys are coming back for the 53 grand I mean fonda 200

[@williamcook7608]

It sucks to see a great driver not finish and hope to see him back . Also great video, and got to get mike out there.

[@eddiemoody8471]

Mandee it is nice to see someone give you a ice cream welcome good thing Mike give you a little nudge to go smart man dad was a man on a mission but rough tracks break things great job crew 💪 thanks for sharing

[@paulmccloughan8017]

great job reporting,

[@dirttrackuntold]

Thanks Paul 🤗

[@MrBmoll5858]

Sorry to hear that, I want to see Pauch in the Winner's circle. 😎

[@stoudt]

Damm absolutely gorgeous

[@ronvonbon]

first off, what a kool boyfriend Mike is, hope he did well, 2nd, I am not an autograph seeker, but it is kool that drivers sign them for the fans. I just do not understand walking up to a driver near his hauler, during racing and seek autographs. People, those guys minds are going a million miles an hour thinking 100% set up to make their car faster. Maybe get their earlier if your going in the pits, if not , go in afterwards, they all sign. Sorry bout your Dad, he grins because hes been through every aspect of the sport. Better luck next race. Thanks Mandee for sharing. If my autograph comment offended anyone, I am sorry. But working on race cars all my life, I understand the drivers, well most lol.

[@dirttrackuntold]

I agree with you 100%

[@walterkowalskisr186]

I thought that was you Mandee! Black "Bicknell" jacket? Your Dad was putting on a heckuva show for awhile. But it's good that he got in a few laps before the big race in September.

[@dirttrackuntold]

Yep that was me 😊

[@redsox63]

Man...he was coming hard I thought he had something for the end. Such a crap break for him. I wasn’t so sure the way they towed his car off was appropriate with the front end dragging but the tow truck crew stunk all night! Hope to see him back for the Deyo show!

[@ryanlee466]

Would love to see your dad invade Airborne this season !!!!

[@jimweagant8920]

Another good video thanks for sharing and keep up the good work

[@dirttrackuntold]

Thank you"!

[@mms19lb]

BUMMER!....at least your dad could chuckle about it....you have to, because as they say thats racing

[@connerhill9525]

Your Dad is Billy Pauch!!! Dan Ballard knows him and he's my uncle! That's awesome love you guys!!

[@connerhill9525]

I was there last night it was crazy lost half the field in 6 laps 40 cautions ughh!! It was cold but love supporting racing.. I have my own Slingshot love tunning at Glen Ridge

[@ronvonbon]

hey Mandee, again thank you for the share. Idea for a vid, after watching and hearing your Dad's battle with those inside tires, I watched a modified race from Grandview Speedway last night. #7 was doing really good getting through the field n boom, caught a tire in turn 1, then 8-9 laps later again. I know its the drivers fault, but I never been a fan of tires inside the turns, seen way too many ripped off RF's $$$$$. Why not concrete barricades, or guard rails ? they do not move and easier to see. Tires are black, plus they get moved around. Maybe ask drivers what they like ?

[@lehighvalleydave4597]

great video mandee oh and i love sweettea lol

[@anthonyhurd4364]

I've always have love going to fonda, but if you think That night was Fast, Wait till the STSS Race. I hope Billy and Dad are there For that Race along for the 200 Weekend.

[@walterkowalskisr186]

Because of this night I thought for sure Billy would be at the 200, but I guess he had prior commitments. Hopefully he'll be here next year.

[@kp454442]

Bill Sr I feel would have a great finish if he were to run the Fonda 200 in a few weeks. Last year had prior committments.But Sr was right on Stewys clock his last visit...not many can say that. Billy no spring chicken and this is not a true 200. It's 2- 100 lappers with a break in between sorta- so it could be perfect for Sr. Mike manages long distance very well, and his equiptment also so he'll do good..I think Podium last Fonda 200. Billy Jr, while looking lost at Fonda first couple gos has REALLY IMPROVED there. Mandee I think structure is 53 to win, 20 k second and 10k 3rd...we Fonda folks would love to see all 3 cars and drivers. See if you can push Pops to do this.

[@rosier71]

McDonald's!!!! But darn I miss watching The Kid run!

[@jameslodge4258]

Even on the bads days you guys make it fun.

[@dirttrackuntold]

Thanks James!

[@darinbradley6024]

I get grinding on the tires... what did they have to grind on the chassis???

[@dirttrackuntold]

There was something rubbing on the tire

[@dalehillegass1188]

That really stinks, you're dad has been around long enough he definitely will get things going in the right direction.

[@ovogaming1152]

Mandee: Never turn down free ice cream Random people: Get in my van and Ill give you free ice cream

[@dirttrackuntold]

hahahaha...accurate

[@bobsmyth1641]

Never turn down good ice cream------- amen I live in Amish country and have had many bowls of their right from the barn FRESH creamy ice cream-- the best

[@outlaw67111]

Hello

[@27jtroyer]

When Mike is tossed from the 35 as he was lapped in a 21 car field will you be able to support him ?

[@dirttrackuntold]

Glad to see you’ve still got your shrewd comments. Good for you dude 😉

[@billyhall4602]

hey

[@gardinflame235]

Did you ever see so many cautions to even get first 5 laps in? I was standing and freezing in 2 when your dad met up with the tire. Those tires have collapsed more than a few front ends, I know it's suppose to be a barrier to stop running from running to far in but DAMN, especially with todays "lightweight" components. Someone once said hit a yuke and your front end pukes...

[@dirttrackuntold]

Yep. It’s tough but it happens unfortunately

[@daren32909]

Sorry girl. Way too cold for me.

[@Camp_Runamuck]

You can’t win them all but you can always eat at McDonalds 😜

[@clifcole2813]

I'll take a little less of her "oh my god, Jesus!!!" talk and and she loves being on the camera and more action on the track!
