Epic Error! So Much for Our Fast Start at Cedar Lake’s USA Nationals

[@H3110NU]

I think Joseph owes the crew a dinner for that one.

[@kend6232]

Agreed. Jesse's face was like his puppy had gotten hit... :) hang in there, its a long weekend!

[@tongates8079]

Part of being on a crew is showing the driver where the scales are at.

[@ryanlane3529]

They were too excited for qualifying in front of big name drivers. too star struck! SMH!

[@bigdaddys73nova]

I’m 56 been going to cedar lake for my whole life, sure great seeing you fellas there.

[@purehades6885]

That was awesome qualifying. Unfortunate set of circumstances that placed you in the back of a heat and Joseph did well fighting up through the field. Great job by everyone and tough luck for prelim night. Kick some tail this weekend and hopefully y'all like the track because it's awesome!!!!

[@bodine4479]

Hell of job guys! Keep the momentum up this weekend! Put that 10 in victory lane! You live and you learn!

[@daveyendrzeski5574]

I drove over from Minnesota to see Joseph race with the best of them on Friday night. A great effort for sure by the entire crew. I enjoyed meeting you all. Best of Luck on Saturday !

[@wiseguy2374]

Joseph drove his butt off in that heat. Nice job guys.

[@jameswolfe7323]

That's the best I've seen the car look since you guys have had it. Keep digging and I see good things coming.

[@brentmead3131]

I love hearing the in car, playing with the throttle, hearing that engine scream. Good stuff

[@petecastle5762]

Joseph does an excellent job at any track he hasn’t been on before, shows his true talent, although he has great sponsors I’d love to see someone come onboard so he could follow the Lucas series full time , it shows he has the talent.

[@2DSTORMS]

Missing something like that might set that back another year. Would be great to see him run for Championship and ROY.

[@mikeuunderwood9545]

Aggression Aggression Aggression! Lookin Good so far. Pay Attention to 157's interview after his Win last night. That place Gets Slick. Set er up for a slick rubered deal. Good Luck!!!!

[@cgundlac]

Man... Y'all drive from one end of the country to the other, have by far the best car you've had since your started running with the best of the best, and pull a bonehead rookie mistake like that.... Sounds exactly like something I would do!!! Aww man what a bummer. You guys handled it with class and did you best to make lemonade outta lemons though, hopefully you keep it dialed in for the weekend! Don't forget to adjust for the slick after y'all make the big show cuz it's gonna get there.

[@kameronrogers2568]

Dang dang dang I was hoping y’all had that one ohhh well it’s racing still y’all are the cleanest racers I ever watched awesome job I we’ll say that till I can’t no more really really love watching Jesse he gets so happy I love it y’all

[@kend6232]

way to admit a mistake and everyone staying positive even though they were frustrated. Excellent leadership and team communication. Hope the kids were watching... when you make a mistake, own it, and move forward!

[@Synic08]

Joseph looks good today, just his mood, his driving, all of it.... Its your guys job to keep him in THAT mood... i havent seen him like that in the videos in awhile.... maybe the skipping the scale took pressure off...? I dunno... he was fast as heck tho,

[@brianellis7291]

Nice job with the way the cards fell.! You could hear the car bogin down when on bottom a Converse to it open wide up when on top. Just like when you qualified and qualified good.! So take that into tomorrow night and Hunt the front for the "W"..!! Blessings and Prayers for you all and your families.!!.

[@glennpupino4890]

Felt terrible for Joseph losing his qualifying position. He's such a good guy.

[@worldofoutlaw1353]

He may not be as good as a lot of the driver out there, but he had an amazing qualifying session

[@TheMOSHPIT19]

I’ve done the same thing in my Modified it’s a terrible feeling and I know no one feels worse than the driver after that one keep trucking you guys are getting so close!

[@patsydavis4921]

Doing good guys. Looks like you are having fun and thats what counts! Go get em!

[@mikediamond1522]

There are a million different variables to racing these cars. That's why it's so easy to get hooked on them. Like playing your favorite game. Joseph is an excellent driver! For one thing when you see a car slow coming of the corner is it because the motor let you down or your spinning the tires and not getting hooked up to all that horse power. Joseph has good throttle finesse when it comes to this. Put a good horse under him and turn him loose! Let him think for himself and quit telling him how to drive. Only the one in the seat knows first hand what's happening under you. A million different things can happen when you're going for the front. PRAISE JESUS! THE FRONT WILL ALWAYS BE IN FRONT OF YOU UNLESS YOU'RE THERE. Mike

[@timothysloan5195]

HTF good run, tech can get you a lot of ways! Good luck tonight and tomorrow!

[@jamespatterson9005]

Hey.. I love the more aggressive driving into the corners !!! It's wat you been missing I feel.. good job!!!!

[@dennychain9007]

I almost sh** when Joseph got hooked on the front strait away!

[@FowlerFan4]

People act like other drivers have just hopped out in the big series and have had immediate success. I mean mistakes happen many guys have missed the scales before especially at Cedar Lake. Just the simple fact of they document it through KZbin people wanna be huge keyboard warriors to talk crap. Keep doing yall HTF. First time at this track and already on speed and time for this weekend.

[@derrickpettit86]

That's part of racing, it happens, y'all did awesome, that's a sweet track, thanks for sharing

[@zimmy202]

I was up in the flagstand photographing during hot laps. Great view from up there.

[@tjax-quackersracing3597]

Good luck tonight and can’t wait to finally see you race and meet you all Again

[@derekbentley334]

I appreciate y'all along with a bunch of other folks.

[@bobbywatson1656]

Man oh Man. Thought Joseph had a great starting start. Hey let's not get down. Look at it this way. The car and driver looked good. Enjoying your trip through theses videos. Thanks for bring us along. Go HTF

[@marktheaardvark7208]

That was a couple really good qualifying laps, Good job guys.

[@David_Bell3939]

Great Job HTF Crew!! Go Gettem Tonight!!👍🔥

[@buddyhabben8454]

No worries your in the big leagues it's absolutely not easy love what you all are chasing the dream ❤️

[@jorrick66]

Nothing quite like hearing supers and 410’s sing

[@garywalsh8878]

Good luck guys.For what it’s worth to do a quick turn around to scuff tires,we use a piece of shelving board with a sheet of 80-120 grit glued to it and before you let the car down start the car and let the board to the work.( if it kicks back your holding in the wrong position.)

[@racinRichie70]

I now live in Northern Alberta Canada but grew up in Thunder Bay Raised racing around Cedar Lake, Superior all around there, my mom and sister picked up a T shirt and hoodie for me today. Have 2 green bean burritos just don’t look at them while eating lol, go hard good luck 🏁

[@vinnie4g63]

can't wait to see you guys up at gondik law! I'll be with you all on Tuesday, racing a different class though. I love cedar lake, personally my favorite track to drive.

[@vinnie4g63]

scales are in the center of the race track up here in superior. what a bummer after a sweet qualifying run

[@scottspencer9697]

Wish you guys could swing by legit speedway in west plains Missouri on your way back home! Would love to watch the hunt the front super late model tearing up some Missouri dirt! Stay safe! God bless you guys!

[@dianeenlow123]

It happens. Don’t let it get you down. Good Luck.

[@teresagoodwin7458]

That's definitely a learning experience and y'all will be able to laugh about it down the way,LOL, we're all human and make mistakes. Now,HTF tomorrow night!!🏁🏆🏁🤗💞 Y'all have proven y'all can run with the big names and were faster than some and passed a bunch too!!!!

[@timmccane9843]

Great job HTF! Keep living the dream! Every race is a learning experience! Keep up the great work!

[@brentmead3131]

That facility looks top notch

[@jonkluver7912]

It really is. Diamond in the middle of no where up there.

[@richardwatkins3664]

Hey y’all, I got my two brothers and a couple of my friends watching your crew racing. They are really stoked watching y’all and all your adventures you do! Don’t stop, it’s great stuff!! I’ve got one question for you tho, I like the app Jonathan uses for his recording and editing of his racing experiences and might possibly use one similar for a small project I’m doing for our church! Is it possible for him to let me know? Videos are really coming out awesome! Richie Rich from NY

[@joejohnson7097]

Joseph so good and excited had a brain shock good luck rest of the weekend

[@crimzonclown9210]

[@kennethdejardin795]

Hello HTF Joseph great job on qualifying for never being on that track honest mistake missing the scales still doesn’t take away your time everybody knows you guys always make weight great effort by the whole crew best wishes for the remainder of the swing I think you guys will like the Duluth/Superior area great look at Lake Superior

[@richxts1357]

Jonathon, Joseph, Jesse, Jason & Shadow, welcome to "Cheese" Country. A long haul for you al'. Yer doin' good, hang in thar!

[@shannonmize2307]

Car looked really balanced. I'm liking that engine package too. #smoothassilk

[@TRM83]

Finish position aside, that was the best yall have looked in a while. Good run.

[@TheBrookian]

All I care is that you passed the Henderson car and Jason Feger. Hell yeah!!!!!

[@jeffjackson482]

Joseph took that in stride!!!! Just made a big fan right here!!! Sorry about negativity early on!!!! Go getm boys

[@JayRudd76]

Thumbs up to Jesse for letting us in on the new vid!

[@scottmoore2644]

Great job boys. Getting moved to the back was a bummer but all in all not to bad.Keep ur heads up n keep doin what u do best

[@elijames3041]

[@rebeccareeves1549]

[@charlesmoore5840]

Well now you know how Mark Martin Felt when he pulled in at Bristol too soon leading the race oops oops oops

[@htf5930]

Jesse's look said it all after the scale F up!

[@jasonjackson5493]

When the track is hooked up they fly.......when it gets slick no good.....but damn it's good to see them back up front atta boy jojo and crew we love pulling for you guys....I feel like I'm there when I'm watching yelling at my phone lolol

[@haroldgarrett9677]

[@bradrussell1656]

[@racing2767]

Hey love you guys Bible names except blue thanks for taking us along,thanks for sharing the racing more important for sharing Jesus.

[@robertcharles1026]

In Australia, Joseph would be owing the boys a box, (carton of beers) but I am sure he won't make that mistake again. Go HTF

[@gregcrouse5560]

Good job !! Everyone is human.. just glad to see you all having fun at the track 🏁🏁 #JESUSisALIVE #HTFnation

[@420williams9]

I’m glad to meet you guys at the pdc can’t wait for next year you got to come race a couple races in Illinois and Missouri so you can get used to our dirt it’s different from Georgia clay dirt Mississippi’s dirt guys

[@ericabrasher2321]

Finished with the video. Good job guys but it's racing and all the cars may not be on the track. With that said there's room to improve but a great foundation or starting point to build on, especially since it's ol Joey's first time their on the track. Good luck and god bless 🙌 🙏 wishing you guys all the best.

[@renegaderacer55]

Tomorrow is a new day. just shake this one off and go HTF tomorrow night.

[@nashguy207]

Good Job Guys, The car looked good!!

[@jimmyboone4496]

Good thing is I don’t think he’ll ever make that mistake again. Mistakes are ok, that’s how you learn, it’s when you start making the same mistake repeatedly is when you’ve got big problems. Good luck the rest of the weekend.

[@ThatsBadTV]

Cedar lake is an awesome track .. If I wasn’t going to Knoxville I would have went to this .. you guys are going to superior ? Awesome !

[@brianthomson6497]

If you are going to race in Superior WI you MUST GO eat at the SHAMROCK BAR AND PIZZA. Just 6 blocks from the track. 5825 Tower Ave. My family owns it. Legendary pizza 🍕

[@nathanstow5580]

What license do you guys have in iracing? Are y’all A license?

[@stevenshell7815]

If he would have stayed on the top he would have made it in. Also i am not complaining this is not easy, saying that if you could have slid job him you would have possibly made it in.. Joseph you are definitely getting a lot faster , good job

[@rodconner9079]

Yessssss!!!!!!!!!!! Let's Gooooooo!!!! Be Safe

[@imabeLiever247]

Thanks!

[@rodneyjackson9413]

It looks fun. That is the only dream I have to do before I pass

[@primetime1868]

Everyone has had that feeling the ohh shit moment when Jessie asked Joey what is our weight Joe Joes heart probably dropped. well at least you guys know you can throw a good lap down put your best rubber on and put that car up front with a awesome qualifying lap. Tomorrow night. Qualifying is the most important thing in all these races . if u get buried in the back of a B main you will not recover on most nights. these B mains are not long enough to come from the back.

[@kregyung4604]

“We’re 27th out of 45,” said Jonathan. “We’re right on par.” Please set higher standards and expectations for your team. Confidence starts at the top! Good heat race driver 👍🏼 You got smoked in the B-Main but damn good showing 👍🏼 I was hoping you’d stay ridding the wall ‘cause you were hauling ass up there dude

[@Bamapride1000]

He said the track got faster as it went but for the time they went when it was slower they were right on par. You gotta judge those kinda things from the time you’re on the track. He said the track had been ran in a good bit since they were on the track.

[@jadetully2511]

Look good just keep trying and more will come

[@kevinzeug2957]

Hey Jonathan I think u guys found some speed tho on the car

[@acurarl9929]

Another great vid guys. Y’all are great. Love the content.

[@jackburgess9482]

Well at least he didn't forget to go to the scales after a feature win like I did!! It was my first win too, I went from first to DQ ...lol.. it never happened again!!

[@swishersnowremoval873]

Been a long time subscriber, you guys feel like hitting up the big boy Knoxville nationals then I'll be there. Been awhile since I've wanted to go but that will make my and my boys decision.

[@Retired70]

Apparently Joseph missed the drivers meeting as well as the scales.. man that’s a WTF moment

[@jrstaccin7893]

I laughed to hard at this comment 😂

[@jason5044]

Don't need a driver's meeting to know you got to cross the scales

[@2DSTORMS]

The drivers meeting would have reminded him and none of this would have happened. When you become complacent, you lose!

[@nathenjordan4913]

Something I was taught early on in my racing career was to quit worrying and focusing so much on lap times and just make the car fast and consistent. Not saying you guys should do the same but it would be something to think on. I know it helped me with my driving career.

[@alanstackhouse2939]

Good luck tonight guy's! Go get em!😊

[@charlesd.3749]

Nice Lap. Looking good for the rest of the weekend

[@BFinanciallyfree]

What is Joseph's fixation with the inside on the corners.

[@Bold1racer]

Been to a few races there, love watching racing there.

[@davebowers1752]

Well that'd how the cookies crumble good luck on the next race

[@jerrycann6374]

Why wasn't there a track official at the exit of the track to direct the drivers to the scales...?

[@richardgeary6432]

maybe the official was AT THE DRIVERS MEETING, reminding them!?!?

[@jerrycann6374]

@@richardgeary6432 when I was involved with a asphalt circle track team the cars that had to go to post inspection and scales the track official directed the 1st 4 cars to inspection, an extra if someone was DQ'd. Plus all the crew always meet the driver at inspection. To congratulate and to make sure no one was overly upset with the driver who beat them to the finish line.

[@Dy7twich]

I have always said one the best off the trailer congrats good luck k

[@dannyht92]

Getting better and better boys.🏁

[@bigdan62t]

You may just learn a lesson this weekend about uses and new tires. Get that core sample.

[@GentryRacing629]

Im here for the keyboard crew chiefs/drivers

[@robertengster5643]

Well Maybe you guys are figuring a few things out, now. That looked good running laps. Now let's see if you use gas pedal same way During race..
