JOHNATHAN..the one thing ive noticed about you, when either of your brothers race, regardless of how they finish, you always ask them if they had FUN. I LOVE THAT ABOUT YOU !!

[@esvs9395]

Any better way? That's the point of racing. Have fun.

[@scottwest8742]

my dad is the same exact way, every time we are done, no matter the finish, he just cares that i had fun

[@jesselayton4164]

Racing is fun when you win it's much funner.

[@youknoweverything7643]

My dad has been the same way about when I raced I'm 29 now and just had to stop racing cuse I need to get my life in a better position instead of blowing 60grand a year on racing been racing since I was 8 in a full size pure stock at 8 on asphalt at the track my parents owned in canada I worked my way up the outlaw latemodel stocks and after every race he asked if I had fun that's all he cared about as well when he was rooting the whole bill for 12 years. He always made racing fun no matter if I was wheeling a pure stock on asphalt or a super latemodel on asphalt or dirt modified and everything in between. When you start making racing your job it becomes not as fun anymore.

[@CORNDODGER]

You guys are RACING THE GIANTS KEEP YOUR HEAD UP !!!! You are doing BATTLE WITH FULL ON RACE TEAMS that have many many tricks hidden in them cars !!! Now you see the difference in the cost of ENGINE BUILDS and HP GAINED BE PROUD BE LOUD HTF Lots of good things are being said about you guys and BIG SPONORS HAVE PUT A CHECK MARK NEXT TO THE 10 !!!!!

[@Tommy-qm2sj]

Tricks yep traction control is the thing they have I know this for a fact but it's so expensive and such a secret that you have to be in kinda like the click they won't let just anyone have it due to the way it's done so high tech

[@CORNDODGER]

@@Tommy-qm2sj TC has been around for YEARS this is why your ING BOXES ARE SEALED ! you have to tap into the system someplace to install TC how do I know I was a NASCAR TECH INSPECTOR some are smaller then a penny ! All work on the same purpose and that is to RETARD the timing at certain preset rpms but with the SEALD BOXES it is pretty much old school shit no one is using on DIRT! It was never beneficial in the DIRT versus ASPHALT where it was really used!

[@allanjoanette3759]

The excitement in their voices says it all. Living their dreams. Joseph always calm, cool and collective. Petal to the floor! Thank you for letting us fans be part of your dream of racing. Great videos.

[@tripleeathletics]

All this time I thought it was Calm, Cool & *Collected? 😂🤣

I agree

[@dianeenlow123]

Couldn’t have said it better.

[@deandavis5820]

Since I've been watching you guys you have so much fun and you thank the Lord for everything when I was racing I used to get so upset when things didn't go my way but you guys have changed my life on that thank you so much

[@EricBible87]

You guys are awesome. Meeting you, meeting Shadow at the merch trailer, getting a pic with you. You guys are a class act, so humble, and deserve every bit of what you have. The crowd around your trailer was just as big as Overton, and Larson. That means something. Means you guys are doing it right.

[@grandpandaman961]

eldora is my local track, i was born and raised in those stands and it was great seeing yall race! didnt get to say hi but had a hell of a time rooting for ya

[@imsowright90]

I was happy to just see all of y'alls excitement. I was just impressed that y'all put that that car back together with no sleep and had no problems. That says alot there. Good luck for the rest of the event.

I think if we as subscribers all donated 1 dollar and I know you're watching we could get that boy an engine that would win the world 100..all I can say great job fellas go make that big show!!!

[@jodywells7519]

Hell I'm in for 100 $

[@dianeenlow123]

You could count me in. I would be willing to go $2.00😉

[@alkennedy1124]

Tell me how to send 2.00 , I’ll send too , lol nice come on every one ☝️, nice , thanks BigAl California,praise Jesus grace Christ amen 🙏.

[@toddamcewen3774]

You guys definitely proved you deserve to be there , with a little more set time learning the track , I'm excited for Hunt The Front team !!! Great Job !!!

[@alanmerritt860]

And need some more horses

[@tripleeathletics]

It’s not seat time really, Joseph can get it done. People that don’t race DLM’s just don’t realize just how much a difference it is when you are down 150+ HP at a track like Eldora! It’s literally impossible to beat those guys when you are down that far on motor. Look on the start of that race, Bobby Pierce was behind Joseph, So he couldn’t hit the throttle until AFTER Joseph, and he STILL Was able to pull out of line and pass him before they got to turn 1. THAT IS UNBELIEVABLE!!! SERIOUSLY, EVERYONE NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND JUST HOW BIG A DEAL THAT IS!!!! P.S. I am not bashing these guys one bit! I LOVE These fellas, and I only want them to succeed as well, But I really want them to have the same playing field, and right now they don’t. It’s literally like their car is 500lbs or more heavy right now.

[@toddamcewen3774]

@@alanmerritt860 Hunt The Front got great exposure and the team showed they came to play . After putting their car back together the day before and had a dam good car toboot . Money equals horse power . Keep at boys , because you got-it !!!

What Joseph may not have in horsepower compared to the others he definitely makes up in driver talent and good decision making!!

[@Tommy-qm2sj]

They running traction control I know it for a fact if I were there and could get too the corners I could tell you in 4 laps who is running it I worked on a cajun Sprint team and they had it cost some big dollars dirt track officials don't look for it like asfalut tech inspection it's a good tool to have one way to spot it is on restarts they jump on the throttle and pass you like your running a 602 the start of his heat race go back and look how they just jumped him on the start left him behind like he didn't get on it

[@ls_812]

I definitely feel you all showed that you deserve to be running here! Many cars/teams haven't made it as far or as fast as you all! I was watching some of the races on FloRacing YT stream and you wouldn't believe the amount of fans that were there supporting HTF! HTF 💯💪👍🏆

[@gailtaylor1636]

I'd love to see someone wander up and hand you a check for a new motor. Although I love the sound of that old Draime a newer design would definitely help for the big races.

[@dianeenlow123]

You and me both and probably all the HTF Crew and Fans. I would love to see them get help with a couple of strong engines.

For your first time ever racing at eldora speedway and to finish 19th out of 40 cars that is awesome y'all look really good on that track keep it up go get into Big show

[@ThePilottribune]

Watched on Flo. Love your videos. Gotta say, the fact that you hung with arguably the best late model drivers in the country was super fun to watch. The Group A cars would be a dream field at any track. Great job you guys! Keep representing the little guys like that and you'll be right up there with Davenport, McCreadie, Sheppard, Overton and the like. Big Thumbs Up.

[@jefflawsonqwest]

Proud of you guys. What you lack in funds compared to those guys, you make up for in hard work, determination, and the ability to have fun doing it. Thanks for the content, I love watching.

[@kennymysak2079]

Gotta say for the first time you all should be proud of yourselves from coming back from a accident last time out and just getting the car back and getting there to race in time

[@allxdup1909]

Now that is fast racing, and Joseph is doing a mighty job reachin' & acclimitizin' to it. Them big races tend to put the winners through an apprenticeship before feature wins hey.. But big races also require a cool head and an eye on finishing with 4 tyres still turning & 8 cylinders still burnin. There will be few opportunities during the race to do those blistering times of qualifying, without taking away from the opportunity to be there in the last lap. This is where Joseph excels, earning your living operating machines teaches you mechanical sympathy, a critical element in the racers toolbox. I laughed watching the 4 of you watching the replays, 3 of you were up on your toes watching, but Joseph remained calm on flat feet haha. I'm lovin it.

[@dennisbarringer930]

I think your whole team is awesome. You guys have worked so hard, and it has really paid off. The biggest thing to me is the positivity y’all spread! Keep up the good work guys. Congrats
