The Freedom Factory has some MAJOR Issues You Probably Didn't Know About...

[@MWWM200]

For the paint: Invite out either some local schools, graffiti artists, or businesses and give them each a section to paint or sponsor. Tell them the base layer has to be done over in the same color but they can do the top layers however they like(Pre approved designs). That way you can get the community involved (free publicity) and keep costs down(free labor).

[@maxst2]

This right here is what needs to be done.

[@matthewmillar3804]

Paint specialist here: I recommend you scrape the loosest stuff off the walls before painting. New paint won't bond old paint back to the wall. Use a concrete primer on the bare concrete, and there's heavy duty outdoor paints that would work well for that project but aren't crazy expensive. That's the best way to have the longest-lasting final product. Sherwin Williams provides paint for the Golden Gate bridge and the Whitehouse. They'll have what you need.

I'm a painter. scrape it first or your new paint will start falling off pretty quick As you are applying it, it will wet the loose stuff and it will delaminate the old stuff.done properly it will last for years.and look good while doing it.The painting is the easy part. It's doing the proper prep that most people neglect.

[@Craneman4100w]

I used to race motorcycles and I think the white and black painted walls with a touch of red to separate them is easier on the eyes at speed. It won't blur as much as some other color combinations might which helps the drivers differentiate differences in speed. (which is helpful on entry to corners).

[@corno]

I agree - then stencil the FF logo and paint that blue in the middle of the black sections! Will look super clean.

[@wayneparris3439]

I never raced on a track with walls (the desert is a bit big to put up walls) but I can see how what you are saying is logical. A regular pattern perhaps painted STARTING at the turn entry and going backward on the track could help people get their bearings. Changing the pattern at the turn entrance would also help to let the drivers gauge where they are and their speed. Two thumbs up!

[@EazyFieldsports]

I second this

[@iagolopez5962]

Yeah plus a mark or sign before the curves could help too to spot the breaking point

[@momolovesyou9969]

I was thinking keep the pattern that's there, and just make the black section blue. But keeping it black and putting a nice blue ff logo would be great.

[@brendonsnover]

Hey brother! With 8.9k comments Im unsure if you will see this, or if someone has already said this... regarding the color choice for the walls, I would go with red white and blue for colors. An easy solution would be to run the red and white the same or similar to what it is now and put the blue where the black is currently. A simple remedy would be to put a coat of a medium gray over the black for a base color then 2 to 3 coats of blue for coverage. That way the black will not bleed through. You could even do a base coat of white if you are looking for a more vibrant blue. That would of course be more coats of paint on top of whats already there but at this rate whats another extra coat or 3 lol. Good luck with everything and thanks for sharing with us

[@nickopedia5669]

@@jpmotovlogs996 and @Chad Simmons AFAIK their regular soap already goes into the leech field/pond so that's no different from how it is now, it would just have the benefit of reducing sewage quantity so they don't have to upgrade the pumps or go to larger tanks. just give the grey system a decent sized settling tank to let anything solid come out and improve clarity before it goes to the toilets. Also, is there a such thing as soap scum with liquid handsoap? I didn't think so but maybe there is. Might be a little gross if someone pukes in a sink though (it would be extremely diluted so its hard to say if it could be smelled when flushing a toilet with water from a 500 gallon tank that had 1 person's puke in it)

[@jw18xxx]

No.... No..... No.... NEVER EVER compare Cleetus or his channels to the BS motortrend did and still does. I have no problem paying $5 a month but do have a problem with video content decreased, quality lesser than it's start out quality and that I can deal with. But suddenly taking it down with not telling any KZbin fans unless they are social media followers is absolute B's I can guarantee any info I need Cleetus puts it on his KZbin channel and all other content. They just vindictively did it because KZbin gave them little warning on them losing ability to gain higher income. I loved many of the shows but boy was that "milking the cow" That disrespect to your fan base is why my hard headed ass stays away. I'll gladly give Cleetus $10 a month for immensely better, less washed up content that isn't as forced. Care to ask Finnegan why he stayed away during this transition due to not agreeing with the situation in which they get less control to keep profits. Doubt Cleetus profits from any episodes on a small scale. You tube was never about money and just sharing content MT corporate greed got in the way when all other sources of income dried up and RK became the next big profiter but bottlenecked by youtube
