Shaking Down Onyx's Car

We took Onyx's Midwest Modified out for the first time this year. Zach hopped in the seat to shake it down and make sure things felt good with it. Overall, it went pretty well, but the mod was less than impressive.
Thanks to Krazy K for working with Onyx on the new graphics! Check him out on his discord:
Thanks to Luke Schultz Media for the video work and edit!

[@chazer200]

Gotta say, the camera work, placement, editing is much improved over last season. It's really good. Nice job Guys.

[@barrysimmons5489]

It'd also help us oldtimers making the car number solid vs outlined. Wishing y'all every success. Blessings 🇺🇲👍

[@txmarine82]

Came over from the main channel Zach to check it out. Pretty amazing what y’all do when the job is over. Badass brother. I’d love to watch a full race and in person someday as well.

[@justsomeguy--]

Awesome to see Jake Sherbrookes Bumz is helping out!

[@matthewenerson2095]

Guessing you guys were planting this weekend. The Designing Earth Contracting group had an amazing time. Wonderful hospitality from the Shaw team. We will be back!

[@drewzavasky2562]

we had a local dirt track here in my home town for years... i worked there as a teen keeping it up for races and running concessions... i miss it... for sure...dirt track racing is a life..... some people live it... some never will...

[@davidwoermansr]

Beer just doesn't taste the same without track dirt in it

[@MuttTheBuckeyeSlayer1977]

Get them Onyx!! Good luck buddy!!! Knew it wouldn’t be long before you was in one!!! Good stuff!!!

[@whitewips1]

Amazing camera work! Was so fun watching!

[@dallasmanus7146]

I love the farming content but I def love the racing more hope there more to come. Brings memories bk to when I was racing with my dad with the late models. Keep up the good work!

[@gregmaddock8969]

Good luck, Onyx and Zach!!!

[@timring1344]

Would love to see some racing merch along side your farming merch. Fans would love to support your racing.

[@betweentherows]

On the way!

Awesome video guys. 🏎🏎🏎

[@tpalshadow]

It was awesome watching the 3 different lines from your in car camera. Not the result you wanted in the A, but fun to watch.

[@terryburgettburgett965]

Perfect slide job

[@charliemoye4442]

I caught that beavis and butthead quote! "Mostly gonna be playing the slots" 😅 good luck this year guys!

[@robertrevering5699]

All sports are like that, one day you’re great, next day you suck! Good video!

[@BubbaGump443]

Love to see the BUMZ logo! Happy Jake is helping out! Wish I could see y’all race up at NorthCentral Speedway in brainerd or something else close!

[@betweentherows]

We'll be in Princeton and Ogilvie next week

[@shanealberts414]

Wow this is awesome involved with Late Model Racing here in SA for Years the Kid started at age 12 and became the club champ at age 13

[@moosedogdad]

Back in the 70s I used to go to the races in Jamestown, ND and a few times in Fargo and Aberdeen. I think the circuit included the I94 track but not sure. The driver names I remember from back then include Ernie Bookins, Bob Simmers and Jack McDonald in late models (I think, maybe modified). Also my neighbor, and little league teammate, Brad Boyer with a street stock.

[@crbrepairmotorcycles6608]

I came across this channel and it's cool I go to Dawson County Raceway in Lexington Nebraska be awesome to see you race there👍

[@carsonschalesky718]

Would love to see you guys come out to Dacotah Speedway in Mandan ND for either the Ironman 100 or the Governor’s Cup. Love the videos btw!

[@betweentherows]

We are all wissota, or else we probably would. I won that cup twice with the late model

[@terryburgettburgett965]

Damn beautiful driving Job in onyx b mod

[@Budd56]

The camera guy is doing a great job 👍👍👍✌️

[@rickharper1497]

Looks like the tires went away on the last heat. Good effort Zach!!

[@davidwoermansr]

Or the track changed massively because he went backwards fast from the start

[@dalepete71]

good to see Bumz on the car.

[@chouc9816]

Keystone, Good Lord!

[@Gil_Gilbert]

Don’t be discouraged. Remember, you’re a farmer first & racing is just a hobby. 👍

[@LimestoneCoastCustoms]

Yeah, sometimes, dare I say "that's racin!" (I know, there is noting worse than going backwards & not knowing why) Sticking at it is the hey as you know! It's still great to be out there in amongst it all! Good job!!

8:32 (in Dale Jr's voice) "SLIDE JOB". 😎😎😎✌️

New catchphrase. “Keep the logo side up.”

[@davidwalker9188]

When you pulled off that slide job the way the announcer says it on world of outlaws what was in my mind.

A local driver bought Greenbush; they are hoping to be open on the 29th of June.

[@Old-bold-pilot]

Race another day! Cheers

[@westonstruiksma6334]

I know that Redwood raceway just open back up. Are you guys gonna race on there?

[@freedomrider30]

Tough! All in a night! 👍🏻👍🏻😎😎😎

[@steverichardson2224]

Read in your comments, bad shock huh? RR? Seemed as if there was nothing to carry the car on the RR. Excessive heat cycle on that tire couldn't have helped either. I personally enjoy these videos as much as the farming ones. I like the flow of these. You keep it real. Murfreesboro, TN

[@betweentherows]

Yep, right rear, good eye. It's nice to hear from people who really understand what they're watching!

[@krismynatt5745]

I would have thought you'd start closer to the front after winning your heat. Did they do a redraw? There's a lot good racers coming out of your neck of the woods. Tuff competitors! Good luck to both of you going forward.

[@betweentherows]

It goes by previous point averages, and ours was decent, which hurts our starting positions

[@shawnmeyer5228]

Man that Derrik guy is hard on ya 😂

[@betweentherows]

He's lucky we keep him around!!

[@terryburgettburgett965]

Zach onxy has a good eye

[@storminnormanddick2484]

Nice job in 73, in 6 car u cant help it when you redraw 7th with a tough field like that you did ok , ther wasnt much passing just everbody holdin ther own, hope to get caught up farmin so can come watch ya race soon

[@johnnyrocket7922]

I was at military appreciation night came from Moorhead MN

[@kevinh9407]

I didn’t hit him he backed into me 😂😂😂😂 that was an all time classic

[@fastdadd1958]

Kind of like the suspension was bouncing and robbing you of gaining a better forward motion pretty much all the track. The engine revs spoke pretty loud on that subject as well. Good driving just gotta get some of dat cool running's happening with that suspension issue.

[@user-ly6ll8rd5o]

Check your shocks mate might have gone off valving old oil ?.

[@_hotrod_]

Boogedy boogedy boogedy let’s go racin’ boys!!😎🤘🏻❤️

[@user-sm1us1mw5d]

Was the front end pushing on ya ,seemed like in the later stages of the race the front end wasn't staying down when you set it into the turn, looked like the front right wasn't holding for you ? Track go away or was the front right heating up as well?

[@jasonpitcher7158]

Guessing you used up the tires in the heat race. It's definitely hard when you get your butt kicked and don't know why. You will get em next time.

[@jefferywilson4091]

Slide jobs are good as long as you clear. And even sometimes when you don't... Lol

[@lagunist1078]

I-94 is tough (single lane) usually, unless they rip it up halfway through the night like they did for WoO late models. Good luck next week!

[@betweentherows]

It's an action track because it's just narrow enough to make it exciting 🤣

[@ar-taqarmando226]

Keep below the cushion? Keep out of the marbles?

[@stevehisey389]

Is there a track near Buffalo River state park? I was camped there a week ago and may have been smaller foreign stock race?

[@RyanLinscott]

Hey Zach do you guys ever run Eldora Speedway in Ohio I think you would love that track it’s so smooth and clean easy track to get a good line and hold it

[@jamisonmeyer521]

Where can we get racing tshirt merch? I want to rep your team at my local dirt track!

[@jimnickels7193]

Say Zach if you wanna get more Hp try using E3 plugs. I tried them on a dyno motor an got 10hp more just with plugs.

[@danielelliott3406B]

Compared to the mods in the in the Super dirt car series ( the series that Stewart Friesen races when he isn’t racing the nascar truck series) you guys are small block mods?

It must have been the handling on your 6x car, because the motor sounded sweet and rpm right where it needed to be.

[@betweentherows]

We actually found a bad right rear shock yesterday

[@garypillischafske1425]

souinded like your mid range throttle was very slow or weak on pickup?

[@betweentherows]

That's my foot holding back due to lack of traction

Are you going to be in West Fargo ND tomorrow for the race at Red River valley speedway? @betweentherows

Negative. We will be in Fergus Falls tonight

Zach I am a late model guy I wish you would do a little video and tell the story why you went open wheel

[@betweentherows]

Will do!

Ah well, you know, stuff happens. To borrow slightly from an aviation channel I follow (74Gear), Keep The Tire Side Down.

[@ianmckay1780]

Never mind Zac there's always next time. Looked like you didn't have much traction? Did tyres go over? No Idea... Thanks anyway, better luck next time From UK.

Went from IMCA hoosiers to USRA American Racers and I gotta say, hoosiers are a scam lol. Them things get hot and turn to concrete. Them American Racers are unbelievable.. sad IMCA and Wissota force those shitty tires upon drivers.. they get hot and are immediately steer tires only gets expensive having to get two new tires every night...
