[@kensnyder9372]

Looked good for the first night out ...Now for a few small adjustment and a few more and a few more.......lol.............

[@joellajuett1060]

Nothing to hang your head about. Brand new car and I have no doubt you guys will dial that machine to perfection.

[@fresnokidsr]

And we are off here comes the 410 shows. As long as you guys keep improving with every race it will all work out. Id say that night was a decent night for a brand new car. It definitely looks like y'all have a good baseline to build from. Thank you for sharing this video Tanner. May y'all have a good one. Have fun take care

[@caidenblackracing]

Great job!

[@Lon3Wolf21]

Good start to the season! Top 10! “Get 10 lbs of bacon” 😂that was funny

[@r3sp3ct4all4]

You had your hands full there at the beginning... great fun watching this... thanks Tanner

[@brettlowder4281]

It was good to see you and your family again Tan! Your mom gave me a big hug like she remembered exactly who I was! Great family! Great racing! Excited to see you around more this year

[@carlcampbell6827]

This is a very nice page. One your first heat race that was very fast, you had the in car cam and "currently 4th" . Whats up with 1-3 cars not being identified?

[@brandonhall793]

It was great to talk to you after the race and finally meet you in person. Keep up the good work. Hanford loves you guys. Safe travels brother.

[@robbj938]

That's the best of the best sprint car drives on the west coast. Missed the setup a little bit in the main. Carrying the front end up down the back stretch. But you didnt tear it up. Good 1st nite out.👍

[@davidsallas7049]

Been following this channel for a long time from driving a go cart to throwing your sister cell phone off the second story of the balcony stepping into a limited sprint 360 and 410, I can honestly say that I’m impressed how much you’ve learned how far you advanced short period of time I really do see in the future a world of outlaw deal maybe in the future because your name is really getting out there now.

[@laz5672]

I think your summary was just about spot on. A good solid first race of the year, lots of lessons to be learnt. Keep your head up and keep pushing.

[@cjhayes197]

Congratulations on a clean start to the year. You had your hands full with it wanting to pull the front end up on that one end of the track for sure.

[@robertcharles1026]

Good start to the season, blew the cobwebs out of the engine. It all looks good for the coming season for you.

[@rockinracer]

Good start. Tulare next, I am going, see you there. Love supporting Your team and family. Hammer down ,ROCK N ROLLING.💜🇺🇸🏆💯👏

[@tfatcher]

Having watched your post race video first, that arm popping out of joint on lap four was key. But you drove through that to finish 8th. A good start to 2023 season. Keep up the good work.

[@OzCouchPotato]

Nicely done, mate. Corey and Justin were untouchable. You got stuck in turn 2 on the restart, so hard to recover from there. Love how Blake has been at Kings "his whole life" and gave you some sound advice.

[@racerdad6455]

Let’s go TH!!! Great start to the new season. I love the fast time and your times in the Quali🏁

[@jasonlavere5071]

Not a bad start to the year! Nothing is tore up too bad. I was going to say it looked like it was rolling over on the RR a lot and that made it difficult to drive in traffic. You also got hung up behind the 29 car for a bit. But the speed wasn't there and you brought it home in one piece. That's all that matters. Great start to the season!

[@RegularJoes]

Solid B+ effort for 1st race of the year in a new car. Some bright spots to build off of. Few mistakes in the main, clean those up and you've got a NARC top 5

[@primetime1868]

Awesome camera angles in the heat race. i thought the camera angle looking at you in the seat was awesome .

[@tomwhiting1338]

Nice job brought the car home clean. Have fun! This season.

[@caderatliff3712]

Awesome to see you back on track Tanner 👍👍 And Blake nailed it ... top was indeed slick!

[@sprintcarfan87]

You're right. The NARC guys are no joke, and you will learn a lot racing with them. I'd say a top 10 on your first night out is good.

[@kalbcorp]

Love that you produce and post these when I am not able to watch live 💪 Looking forward to a championship 🏆season

[@skepticusmaximus184]

Great fun eh fella? It exciting to see the sprintcars again. NGL I kept looking at the cars with more red thinking last seasons 18T and forgetting your new colours. 😅 Never mind blitzing the pack. Just bring your car and yourself home in one piece and we'll always love it. BTW that wasn't a bad track was it?

[@RiverOfHate88]

The go pro video is just fantastic ! You keep getting better and better , go man go !

[@melabshier5812]

Kiddo, we see what's important. Carly says win the 10lbs of bacon 😁 and you want the $10 grand. 🏆 All in all very good start to the year. Improve at Tulare and things will truly be rollin'. Go get 'em. 👍👍

[@themanironmask]

The black car looks menacing. Love it much better than last years white car. Nice job on the night in general. First race of the year, you'll get better. Keep grinding.

[@carolinaghost5451]

KEEP ON PUSHING FORWARD, NICE RACE FOR FIRST RACE OF THE YR.

[@canisleep6498]

I was the kid that talked in the vid mason I’m Blake tanners biggest fan

[@LDRMotorSports]

Great job Tanner, you did amazing!!!👍👍

[@bobzilla5472]

Nice run for first night out in a new car. Hope your going to Thunderbowl next weekend so I can watch on FloRacing. It'll probably be another month before the snow is gone and we get to race up here in ND. So, I get my thrills watching FloRacing and following you.

[@williamcampbell6589]

I used to hate these kind of nights. Going backwards only would piss me off so bad. I could only be mad at myself for missing the set up.

[@mikegoodwin8983]

Great start to the season. RIP THE LIP! 🏁🏆🇺🇸

[@unclebones2488]

No worries Tanner , new car first race you did fine swimming with sharks , spotty track slick then wheelie heavy

[@cjvalentine8931]

I was in the stands going nuts with the heat race win

[@albondigas9549]

"you get 10 pounds of bacon, so you better win it". 😅 love it😂

[@H3110NU]

And the winner also chooses a fan to win 10 lbs of bacon in a lil soft cooler

[@jerrywilliams3177]

Tanner good morning from Kansas City. I watched your first race yesterday and I started to make a comment then I thought better to be quiet. But I thought about it alot and concluded I want to help you as much as possible. Having watched you race quite alot and being an ex-racer myself I thought maybe I might make some suggestions if it's all right. Here goes and this may mean something to you or it could be a nothing burger. You are your biggest problem. You over think everytime you get into the race car. You are analyzing constantly instead of allowing yourself and that race car to become one entity. Everytime you put your butt in that seat and strap in you and that car become one. I understand all the technical things and engineering it takes to manage a machine. Start feeling that car and where it wants to go everytime you push that right foot to the firewall. The whole idea in racing is always try to keep your race car going straight even when you are turning! It's like being a jockey on the back of a race horse. Listen to that horse, feel that horse under you , love on it and you will always be in control. One last thing your reaction time is not good enough when the flag drops. You give up to much distance at the start get more agressive. Those other guys when your are racing aren't your friends they want to beat you as much as you want to win. Now next time the flag drops the only thing you do is right foot to the floor and turn left when you need to and keep her headed in a straight line you will eventually see those turns become small straights. Lastly, flag drops never ever look back always ahead, make it a great day, jw

[@TannerHolmes]

Jerry I appreciate the advice, and hear what you are saying! 100% will work on that moving forward. We got races to win this year!

[@jerrywilliams3177]

@@TannerHolmes You are the best, keep it up, I always want to be of help in a positive way, make it a great day, jw

[@mikehenshaw5480]

Good job keep your head high 💪

[@1776vtgmb]

Billy Dietrich had a PA video on the new 2023 2-direction tires with no camber.... The old tires were one-way rotation only with a camber. What tires are they running out west? WillyB

[@shanedevlin6097]

It gets better, but the worst part was that you didn't win the dash. Now you owe Karlie some bacon 🥓

[@matthewhughes817]

Atleast u got top 10 which always good. Look like u was tried or loose at the end of the race. Anyway great job.

[@michaelbrown7924]

I can't wait to meet u when u come to husets speedway have a good season tanner

[@gol09112]

Nice stuff

[@frankdanfelt7059]

Good job considering track conditions.

Good job. Glad to see it's still 5:30

[@albondigas9549]

sure hope to see you at tulare !!!

[@ejw158]

Happy 410 day everyone

[@timtaylor9080]

Sorry for the bad night. Unfortunately looks like you had the wrong line all night. Takes time I know. Good luck

[@shaneallison3370]

You get ten pounds of bacon 🥓 😂 so you gotta win it She’s funny

[@Celxry]

81 speedway had 20,000 to win with the world of outlaws last Saturday

[@WilliamLibecco-mx4ts]

On track momentum. Start to finish...

[@troygroomes104]

Congratulations

[@davidvanbrunt4233]

Hope your in Tulare Sat !!!

[@johanvanheerden8458]

Expensive new car staying out wide its in the mind get down inside wide dont win!

[@jeffomspaugh6691]

Looked like you had your hands full. Did it feel like the right rear bar was a bit soft. The way the car was acting it looked like it.

[@troygroomes104]

Quick question Tanner Are you going to race at Merced Speedway this year?

[@charliewhite3992]

Why didn't you try the non wing race

[@kevinwallis2194]

I just found out they closed another speedway. Santa Maria speedway off I5

[@raymond3803]

Why not run Lakeside Tuesday night? Your favorite track, $50k to win, $2K for 24th place. What did 8th place pay here? I'll bet it was < $2K.

[@TannerHolmes]

I really wish we could! Sadly that is 25+ hours away

[@TimJohnsonBizNet3]

10 pounds of bacon wasn't enough incentive to pull out all the stops for the dash?

[@matabeleman]

Carly will tell ya..

[@tyemaher3408]

It the track burn Tyers tanner

[@tyemaher3408]

Because I work on a speedcar (midget) Australia and the tracks are really burning Tyers, so i was wondering if it was doing the same to your tracks.

[@bentleystewart8432]

Hey Tanner are you going to race 410 eldora for a million

[@TannerHolmes]

I would like too, we will know more in June!

[@burlapX]

👍🏻

[@magicman51s]

I think your new car needs som sort of graphics..looks unfinished on video..

[@byfieldracing10b14]

First viewer good job top 10 finish

[@ericwilper3763]

That track looked pretty boring. Really only one fast line (top) and not alot of side by side racing. Lots of follow the leader. A top 10 finish is always pretty good though!!

[@raymond3803]

Still using the old Hoosiers, I see. Front end looks light down the shoots qualifying and in heat. 8:20 *_"The dash pole sitter, and we are *ALL_*_ fighting for the top of 1 & 2"*_ *WHAT?* If indeed they watered the bottom before the dash, your competitors were obviously aware of it, and you were too busy making videos. You were the only car on the top of 1 & 2 as they picked you off running the bottom. You squandered a good dash pill draw.

[@itsyoboypayton6827]

First!

[@michaelnotary5205]

Can't follow and can't just make laps.
