I had faith the entire time. That boy can drive a racecar. Can't wait to see y'all at the FF. Or at least rocking a big FF decal on the racecars. Great job everyone.

That thing sounds wicked

[@CleetusM]

Thanks a ton guys. Had an absolute blast!!!

[@kevinthomas4930]

Congrats brother. No hate, lots of respect. I raced dirt for 15 years, wish I had the opportunity you had in this video. You did Cleeter Nation real proud.

[@Honkytonkrob]

Insane job. This was absolutely amazing as a dirt fan. I think a 410 sprint car should be in your future! Bowman has one!

[@David_Bell3939]

Awesome job Cleetus! You are a Wheelman!!

[@kristopher87]

You guys need to collaborate more get them out drifting and get you in some races

[@kevinritchie9227]

Any room for one of these boys in the Freedom 500? That would be cool.

[@stevesansenbach3175]

As a fan of Cleetus's page and HTF this was a fun video. He definitely can drive anything but was surprised how fast and smooth he looked. Hopefully you guys can collaborate on some content in the future. Maybe Joseph can participate in one of his events at the Freedom Factory.

[@jackdonkey22]

Maybe Jesse and Joseph can do the LeMullet thing together.

[@quinthightower95]

@@jackdonkey22 you beat me to it lol

[@jerrywhitworth316]

I'm also a fan of Cleetus and HTF. That was very nice and cool what you did. 👍🏁

[@MN-ho5fv]

He looked really good in that car. Mostly happy to see the respect that he had for your equipment.

[@ASRA177]

Best thing about cleet he only wrecks on his own stuff if he can help it lol hobby stock wreck wasnt anything he could do.

[@shawnbailey6084]

Been around dirt my whole life, that’s rare talent Cleetus has. Hell of a driver

[@seanbarker7315]

Indeed! Thought it strange that these guys had no idea. Saying "he is going to go slow or crash". First time in a ride that did not fit him and he is running 1 second behind all of their experience. In one week he would be competitive; In two weeks he would be on the podium; In three weeks he would be in the winners circle. He is not only that good, he is that competitive.

[@JK-pe6if]

@@seanbarker7315 I did my first dirt race last summer and got podium then won the next one lol i was 19 then i’m doing my first full time season this year and i think i’ll be a contender for the championship

[@adventure6583]

@J K update?

[@handymandev03]

One extra subscription here. After watching cleetus for years now I more than happy to watch your channel you guys are fantastic.

[@chaserchaserspeedracer]

Ol' Cleetus living a dream life sure brings car guy's entertainment to millions of us faster than any tv show series.. he's a good dude. Yall showed him dirt is for racing and the asphalt gets ya there. Hunt The Front !

[@growlith6969]

"Oooooh....you're not letting off" (Ehhhh that's not the kind of advice we are comfortable giving you actually....) That was so funny! You have a new sub straight from Cleeterville, see you guys around!

[@kellymorrison8431]

Just found you watching cleetus..you sold me on the back of your late-model with Jesus saves! God bless and good luck this season!!

[@MrIlovemetals]

Thank you Cleetus for introducing me to this channel! And to the Hunt guys thank you for making this channel!

[@mx21foreverboo29]

Your gonna love the HTF Nation

[@smalltownadventures1971]

I was impressed with the way he wheeled that car for his first time now let Jesse take some laps around Bristol HTF Baby

[@scottholbert2742]

Cleetus has run some types of lesser horsepower cars at his track also but he adapted real quick to the great difference in horsepower and knows how to respect it. Very smooth with the steering also even though it might have appeared not in the incar camera. All around very impressive. He did it for Dale #3 no doubt. Joseph shouldn’t be surprised if he gets a invite to any of his races at the freedom factory. Thanks HTF 🇺🇸🏁☝️

[@purehonda23]

Ill be honest i didn't know who you were or your channel existed until Cleet posted the video. But im here for a reason i like the enthusiasm and good spirits you all have as a group it strongly reminds me of cleeters group its just a bunch of dudes helping out other dudes who pretty much live on race gas and g force so it was a match made in heaven. But 1 thing i can say not only can cleetus drive a racecar he can operate anything you put in front of him. You can tell by the way that it is 👌 im a payloader operator on the farm but its no different than driving anything else.. If its movable myself and good ol cleeter will at bare minimum attempt it. I raced quad motocross for 6 years starting when i was 16. But my dad had me on multiple 200 or higher mile snowmobile trips when i was a year and a half old and everything after lol. Literally i have the photo album at my moms. I love watching cleetus because i can relate to him im so blown away by his passion for adrenaline and precision at the same time while also being wild and sometimes just uncontrollable 🤣🇺🇲 just too much freedom brother you know the deal. Lol but the main thing is Mind Control and letting yourself try new things but also having the amount of seat time on just anything with an engine is excellent experience and a young racing background isnt needed im told it is by so many people but us as humans dont just stop learning we stop because of priorities, practicality "sometimes" and passion. If you dont have those 3 things minimum you wont last racing anything i can vouch. So hats off to you and the crew and cleetus's as well for continually putting out great enjoyable content even if the video was expected to go great then fails lol the ability to take failure and use it and not let it phase you is. Huge and only some people have ALL those things so im happy this happened and im so pumped for both groups my guess says cleetus would podium minimum once within his first 5 races and i feel horrible for even saying 5. I feel like the 2nd race ever hed dominate but i know where that confidence gets a guy as well so lets all just be cool and let nature take its course 👌🇺🇲 DO IT FOR DALE🤘

[@rothe31]

I don’t buy much swag from KZbinrs, but I do have a HTF Hoodie and hat (that I wear EVERY day), my Cleetus sun hat and shirt, and an Alec Steele shirt (forges metal). Those are my 3 favorite KZbinrs so to see HTF hook up with Cleetus, that made my week! Well done HTF! DALE YEAH!

[@markmsf3]

Great marketing move guys. You owe a case of beer to whoever came up with the idea of letting Cleetus rip in yall's hotrod. I'm a new subscriber from his channel and I'm sure you'll have many more. Gotta watch some of yawls races now.

[@chrisgeorge3529]

Got a subscriber from the Cleeter channel!!!! Pretty damn good Collaboration!!

[@codywelch4839]

Wasn’t expecting him to do so good. But Ol’ Cleeter definitely knows how to wheel a race car!

[@teresagoodwin7458]

ABSOLUTELY 🤗❤️ PRICELESS 🤗❤️

[@Knives101]

Hopefully you guys can get Cleetus back out on the dirt. He is definitely a natural behind the wheel. It seems like he can drive just about anything. Great job getting Cleetus out in the Late Model. Great video. Good luck this week guys!

[@kevinthomas4930]

I'll never forget my first time in a late model. Real little motor by today's standards, but in 2003 it was extremely competitive at 770 hp. I was still shaking the next day.

[@JACKEDRACING]

It’s very cool to see how skills from one type of racing carry over into another. Awesome collaboration! 😁

[@Owens_Racing]

Eldora speedway used to have a dirt race where drovers from other Motorsports got to race Dirt Late Models. Always enjoyed that race.

[@JACKEDRACING]

@@Owens_Racing I remember that! Wish it still happened. I like the new SRX series too

[@blakespencer1115]

He did great, it’s hard to believe that was his first time in a late model after watching that! Super impressed

[@zippymax1]

Great collab. Everything Cleetus touches turns to gold. Thanks for letting Cleetus drive your car. Subscribed for that--and due to the "Jesus Lives" sign on your car. Now we just need to see that on Cleetus's cars.

[@Nyghtprowler]

Hell yeah I been waiting for this! Our boy Cleeter can drive a car - He's shown it time and time agian / different cars / different surfaces. It's in his DNA or something lol I dunno how he just jumps into anythinng and rips! haha Great vid from two of my favorite channels! :)

[@quickdeuce]

Watching the left rear wheel well as Garrett goes around, DAYMN that chassis lifts a ton going thru the turns. We know that's the way it's supposed to work,, just like it is in any form offf motor sports, it's all about power, tires and weight transfer to make fast and quick laps. Straight line or around corners, gotta keep the tires planted or all the power in the world's go'n NO-WHARE. Garrett was born a natural pilot,, give that boy a power plant, a chassis, four tires and a steering wheel and he'll impress ya with his natural born talent. Thank you fellers for allowing Garrett wheel one of your hotrods. He's yet another awesum memory to share with his Grandkids fo sho!

[@greendeere777]

Awesome! Need to do a cleet and HTF late model race at southern, 602,604 pack the house! Could be a big hit with the racing community of Milton Fla and Cleets entourage!!!

[@ncbullfrog5808]

Very cool. I was very impressed he could run that fast in the SLM for the first time. I have watched bunches of Cleetus's videos, he ain't skeerd! Lol. Y'all some brave guys to put a rookie in your equipment! Great video HTF and Cleetus!!!

[@harrellmorlan6817]

Cleetus sent me!, I'm glad I found y'alls channel I enjoy dirt track racing more than any other type. Looks like I've got some videos to catch up on. Great content hunt the front.

Genius move gettin Cleeter in your car! Got me to watch a few of your vids you guys are great and the racing is killer! New subscriber here. Jesus Lives Indeed! Cheers boys

[@quinthightower95]

Been a fan of cleetus for a while and found Jesse on twitch a little while ago. Loved the collaboration and would love to see cleetus in a late model race or Joseph and Jesse as a team in 2.4 hours of le mullets.

[@jamieday6602]

He did a great job and was was very respectful of HTF team and taking his time to get up to speed and learning the car and extra power! It's great Bristol allowed this to happen and the HTF team to allow cleetus to to that! He will have one soon himself! Way to go to all involved! Great video!

[@BBossman1]

Glad y'all gave Cleetus a shot at your car. Y'all won a new fan and subscriber. Can't wait for y'all to show up at the FF one day to wheel a Crown Vic.

[@edfleming9600]

I wish I knew y'all was a channel. Mr. Wreck them all (Cleetus) got me turned on to y'all. I'm real glad. He drives like me. We can drive anything, anytime and look awesome. Then Sunday comes. I blame it on needing to get to work on Monday. He works at a track though. I got a reason. I live in Oregon. There hasn't been real racing here for years!

[@rogermacdearmid4380]

The dude can drive a race car, LEGIT! To come within a second of being truly competitive is one thing, maybe after 1000 laps. But to do that within such an incredibly short time after first laying eyes on the car, is truly amazing. It would be interesting to have Joseph run some laps in one of the other Late Models and see what happens without any setup etc. Kudos to you guys for taking all of us along.

[@Thegrizzy321]

Love it when channels help expand each other viewing potential. Big plus for Florida man stuff too👍

I am really happy you all let Cleetus drive your car! He really seems like a natural race car driver. I loved the quote: "he'll either go slow or crash!" So glad it was neither, as I am sure you are too. *I love your channel too, I am a new subscriber! You guys are a blast and what I down home American!*

So the fact i grew up around this stuff and having lucas wolfe as a cousin this is insane knowing what the costs couldve been. The fact that yall took that chance and had witnessed the fact of cleet being such a wheel man is awesome! I really would love to see him and yall in a car up here at the grove in pa. Or even port royal! Yall gave me a new channel to watch and im glad about it. Good luck yall!!!

[@luis566lc]

I come from cleets fan base just wanna say it was really dope to see your teams point of view on how he did with a late model. I’m definitely subbing y’all got my attention and respect keeping it real even thou he comes from asphalt I’m definitely enjoying the dirt content an I hope to see more as well as the dirt community grow. I love both asphalt an dirt I get down an dirty in both surfaces only problem is that I can only afford to enjoy one surface at the moment it every time my friend invite me out to the dirt I always have the best time.

[@AwesomeGames56]

Great video, would love the audio downmixed to mono. Watching on my phone kinda gave me audio whiplash. Cleetus is a great driver no matter what you put him in. I think it would be awesome to see him doing some dirt track racing professionally but I know he’s got a super busy schedule between his Cleetus and cars events, keeping up with his track, and drag racing. Good to see him out here having fun. Thank you guys for giving him this opportunity.

[@EagleRun23]

I hope cleetus can keep the wheels on. I really enjoy his channel. Many of these channels lose their direction. Stay Humble everyone.

[@MLMWarriors]

Enjoy both channels. Awesome!!!!

[@chuckingram5966]

Thank you and welcome to the freedom factory family. You guys are awesome.

[@allxdup1909]

Great job Cleeter, after 20 years in dirt & a few years watching your channel & HTF, I just knew you would fall in love/lust with super late models. Wait till you get in traffic mate, it will blow your bolt. This video shows how well Joseph & team can set up a car for the dirt. In case Johnathan wasn't aware, this will prove to be utube gold for both teams, between 2 very popular channels. I reckon Johnathan should drive the freedom 500, he will show the other guys how to be comfortable in TRAFFIC.I think his skill & experience are most often overlooked while he holds the camera. Maybe we all underestimate the depth of skills in both these channels teams. Co-lab eh?? Awesome.

[@mrhighlight8771]

Really funny how you and the team was so tickled to be around that gentle giant.. He makes people feel the best they can be and humble as ever.. That smile you made today will live forever in memories. Great video and good luck with the season

At first I thought it was a sun spot on the camera lens but it changed position and once he got around the #4 turn it was plain as day. Have to check out his videos to see if they post any of the drone footage. Best of luck from Mounds View Minnesota keep'er together and HUNT THE FRONT!!
