FREEDOM FACTORY SPECTATOR DRAGS *FIRST EVER*

[@TBERGMEDIA]

The time has finally come. Welcome to the very first Freedom Factory Spectator Drags!!!! Extremely happy to be able to share this with you guys, hope you enjoy 👊🏁

[@joshsulham]

Imagine if I was able to show up with my s40 I run at Seekonk would have made some upsets for sure

[@michaelsclark]

Monte carlo ss ftw💪proud owner myself

[@leonsilcott7594]

ALL heal the King the C8 CORVETTE

[@kohsman313]

Keep them coming man!

[@avgusthorch]

Amazing

[@johnnyohness6610]

The edited version is so much better than the live show. One race after another NO interviews that doesn't mean a hill of beans to the audience. The spectators want "action", not interviews with people they don't even know. Once a race is over the finish line, the next pair should be on the starting line. Gotta keep the excitement going. I know those 15-minute intermissions sold some beer and hotdogs but stole a lot of the momentum. Your good editing made the event like it should have been in the live show. I know this was your first event of this kind, and you learned a lot from it. Good show McFarland....I know the next one will be even better. The secret is to keep the excitement going. GOOD SHOW.

[@akmc3313]

i noticed something was off when damn near everyone was sleeping at the line

[@justlucky8254]

Well said!

[@j.w.presents9552]

I agree with you but then I don't...lol. I personally enjoy hearing the owners mods before each race. Now with that said.. I don't want your life story, something short and sweet!

[@akiraotb]

Would u rather the event be an hour.?

[@baysidefabrication]

That was my wife’s bmw x5 I was driving. Thanks for posting. I had so much fun

[@alwaysinmotion1417]

That was an impressive lack of body roll on the corners

[@TBERGMEDIA]

Awesome stuff man!!! You killed it out there, congrats on 3rd !

[@jodyleder5406]

Are you in the North American BMW Diesel Owners Facebook group? We were all hoping to find ya lol Great work!

[@JukeboxAlley]

This should have millions of views.

[@rollinthunder7772]

Check out carbon video races he has the same races for up north

[@4wdtaco678]

This was awesome! Dude with the 370z is the real winner tho! 💪🏽

[@mewingdegree58]

The last race between the C7 and C8 shows how much of a difference they are in style and drive. These races really showed what these cars can really do. Great show

[@rickmassey1272]

These races show nothing near what these cars are capable of. These are not pro drivers nor do they have track alignments or setups.

[@saltyfloridaman7163]

Not even close. The C7 Zr1 has a shitty driver who's too afraid of the throttle and brakes. It's one of the best handling cars in the world and has the best braking performance of any production car.

[@makomike42]

@@saltyfloridaman7163 he was too afraid because he can't handle that car

[@doctordeath5519]

Incredible machines the corvettes are very well Engineered . I've had two now a camaro ss is my fun car and my Z28 is my race car . But I can see a Z06 in my future. The 370 Z was a Beast my hats off to the Driver !!

[@RWDC8Z]

Thanks for doing this bro! Like I saw there!

[@TBERGMEDIA]

Congrats on the win!!! 🏆🏁 killed it out there!!!

[@gbouc1536]

TBERG always has the best spectator drag video's ! This was fun to watch !

[@TBERGMEDIA]

Glad you enjoyed! 👊

[@wesleymadsen4357]

TBERG has dominated the specator drags for years and i f'n appreciate it so much !

[@22vx]

Excellent entertainment 👌 Thanx for sharing 👍

[@benjaminhartshorn2333]

I am impressed with the x5 35d holding in there that long. Might be my next suv.

[@MattyH1992]

My god this was so good. The races, the track, the announcer isn't a bumbling jackass, the video quality. Excellent.

[@Rampant_Colt]

C8 vs C7 ZR1 @ 51:25 What a couple of excellent races! Please make more videos like this

[@cashtalks6253]

I had just left a comment I hope mr.McFarland is taking notes on spectator racing on another channel and damn two days later here it is… This is the best I have ever seen!!!! I can’t wait to see more!!!

[@TBERGMEDIA]

The time has finally come!!!

[@mylesmusgraves1373]

Made my day to see that 370 out there! She's a bit older but she still puts out

[@shosaleen]

Damn man hope you have a bodyshop sponsorship to help the guys out you can tell the 370 driver loves his car. Great spectator races btw!

[@Turtlefarm]

I love mine too, it’s a passion. Guy can now do a manual swap. And fix the damage.. but he did drive the piss out of it.

[@Carbon_Video]

Such an awesome event and the FF guys did a great job running it. Was interesting seeing how far the Teslas could make it, and the 370z put on a show. Great video, Will be fun to see the couple Seekonk cars compete in August!

[@TBERGMEDIA]

They really did a great job! Crazy how the power of social media can create such an event that tracks around for 50+ years can barely come close to ! Tesla’s were quick, the Zr1 did not want to lose against one lol and always fun watching a wheel man too, the Z will be back at some point. Should be interesting to see what shows up after this event, Seekonk guys are ready to clean house 😂

[@bhoffman8984]

Hell yes! I've been watching your spectator drags videos for a couple years and was super happy to see you got to TBERG this one.

[@ryanpetree6475]

Your living my DREAM BROTHER! Own your own track and doing spectator drags with it!!!!! Great minds think alike!

[@DM-qg4bi]

I'm so glad the crowd wanted the red corvette to beat the tesla just as much as me! 😁👍

[@nathanielbarbeau4821]

TBERG traveled to Florida (from Illinois?) to capture this epic footage. Now we all have to move to Florida to escape the current regime and enjoy our passion of motor sports.

[@TBERGMEDIA]

Traveled from MA lol

[@troyandrade615]

@@TBERGMEDIA I was on vacation visiting family during this time. I was just lucky enough to have been able to go and see this live.

[@88e303stanggt]

Been subb’ed for years now.. glad to see you cover this! It’s about a 2hr drive for me. My 95 viper won’t be competitive but would be fun!

[@venomous2die4]

Aero... lots of aero... and downforce... loooooots of downforce... and tires.... much much much wider, stickier nascar tires lmfao. honestly, it would definitely be a hoot to see a gen 1.8 viper in one of these spectator drags.

[@2gripzcruiser]

I've been watching spectator drags from seekonk on KZbin hoping one day it would grow in popularity cleeter is the one to do it if anyone will🤪I hope to see this real life rwyb spec sport grow .thanks TBERG MEDIA for the coverage I would love to be part of this one day

[@TBERGMEDIA]

It’s like the reality tv of racing/the car community but in the best way possible hahaha !

[@2gripzcruiser]

@@TBERGMEDIAfor sure I also like the fact that it's like where the heart of racing came from.. from the pure adrenaline of "sending it " around a track

[@thub9737]

So glad you covered this event.

[@RDRS_Phoenix]

Unlucky for that Z34 understeering into the wall. The driver put up a good fight against the ZR1.

[@PrettyChrome]

The vette had driver aids on, the z driver is a real wheelman tho

[@VaunShiz]

Yea if you notice the more rounds people go the more mistakes they make , lots of pressure!

[@VaunShiz]

@@PrettyChrome as apposed to them off ? That Zr1 would of went into a wall to haha

[@dama2803]

Amazing footage as usual!. They got a nice mix of vehicles down there. I think some of the New England peeps need to represent.

[@TBERGMEDIA]

Stay tuned 👊👀

[@SSDracerSD]

Actually sat through the whole video waiting for my table. Awesome video! Great cars shown! You can tell the ZR1 has a lot of potential, but requires an experienced driver.

[@saltyfloridaman7163]

Poor throttle control, poor brake timing, poor driving line. Definitely a dude who needs a few weeks of hot lap track training from Ron Fellows

[@leoncope6649]

You are one of the most rock solid camera 📷 people I have seen , in so long you do a great job love the racing videos ,

[@TBERGMEDIA]

Much appreciated, glad you enjoyed!! 👊🏁

Gonna be fun when this gets more views then his. Just can't beat the film style. No bs just action.

[@revengefullobster4524]

I was really hoping he would do this. Hell yeah brotha, got some pretty expensive cars running as well! It's no Seekonk, but great to see other racetracks doing it. I know those Seekonk guys would hurt some feelings! Looking forward to more!

[@bluesharp59]

Cool video and Thumbs Up !

wow THAT WAS GREAT....... WE WANT MORE❤❤❤

[@GODZILLATORINORACING]

Nice Videos, Never seen this type of drag racing, if I ran some different tires I wonder how the Gran Torino would fair lol !

[@NateThatGuy1121]

7:18 fun fact the 2.5 5 cylinder in the Jetta’s use the same basic geometry as the Audi/Lambo v10. Hence the “pissed off lambo” sound🤣

[@brave0nej]

Bout time!!! Get me a Mt Dew now

[@sputnikalgrim]

I always wondered why the Marauder was so slept on. It was such a powerhouse

[@shweezy24]

15:38 kyle just causally taking selfies with fans! Love to see it hahaha Awesome video! Great racing! Would love to see someone bring a built GTI and take the win. Anyone who has driven or owns a GTI feels me haha

[@eddiejimenez755]

This race was badass!!!

[@random04_]

I'm surprised you haven't had a copyright strike yet 😂 great content!

[@TBERGMEDIA]

I got copyrighted from the background music 🙄 almost disputed it but not worth it if I’m in the wrong lol

[@nemesis8664]

This proofs that money doesn't buy skills, and so, the MClaren ended bitting the dust. In the right hands, that beast would have smashed the other "cars" and with ease.

[@TBERGMEDIA]

I’m pretty sure the owner was some onlyfans girl who let the boyfriend drive 😅

That 370z was badass!

Good stuff. It was a fun night for sure. Can't believe I got that first round bye haha

[@g00dl00kinb0i]

Freedom Factory = AWESOME ! The C7 ZR-1 vs C8 racing to Europe's Final Countdown was a nice touch. Btw, could this be a camera on the C8 not an antenna ?

[@TBERGMEDIA]

Haha hell yeah ! That was a GoPro setup on the c8, the driver put a cool video together on his channel @ RearWheelDrive

[@g00dl00kinb0i]

👍 Thought so, yeah that must make for an amazing angle. And the shake from the rod its installed on could make people with sea sickness throw up, lol. I'll check it out...

[@AHondaCivicEX]

That RX-8 by far the quietest RX-8 iv'e ever heard, probably the quietest car in this spec drag its crazy

[@shawnone4558]

Thank you!

[@johnnyq1233]

I wish we could have these races here in Winnipeg! There are too many street races that are not good for the safety of our communities! I would urge the province and city to allow a track and group to regulate racing inside the city. There would be as attractions, Monster Jam and free styles, Drag racing 1/8 and 1/4 mile, Asphalt oval and dirt bike tracks and a host of "spectator" events such as drags and crash races....

[@MindTesla]

So the black tesla was just a long range with acceleration boost and the white one was a RWD? imagine if there was a performance there. Feelings would of been hurt that day lol.

[@JoshKetchum]

Impalas are B bodies.. not G bodies lol

Keep up the great work guys!

[@austinowensracing3085]

@@TBERGMEDIA okay they tap the wall I actually hit it 😂

[@g00dl00kinb0i]

Holy hell, the power gap between the ZR-1 and the Abarth is about 600hp, lol !

[@effyfil4277]

Corvette has always had it's distinctive and characteristic styling, which I really liked. The C8... Apparently it's fast, well balanced and handles great. But, in my opinion, the C8 looks like European supercars' poor relative. That orange (red?) ZR1 on the other hand... 😁

[@thequarantinefamily5230]

Damn the C8 is unbelievable fast

[@karlk6860]

Its very interesting to watch the C7 and the C8 together I have a C7 Z06 and after the last computer tune I am well over 700 HP and without a doubt GM got the Gods of traction involved in building the C8. My C& and the base S151 C8 both run 0 to 60 in 3 seconds, and my C7 over a 200 HP advantage over the C8! That sure says a Whole lot of something!!!

[@firstname5912]

Good for you

The dude in the GT3 needs balls or driving lessons…

[@darrylyoes414]

OMG that Tesla spanked that 5.0.

The 370 needs a wing

[@MrSmd500mxz]

You guys should "Give cars" for real, no prizes, no bs just straight up fun.

[@VaunShiz]

I guess it helps not to do a massive burn out before you have to race against a Zr1 hahaha

[@cliffont]

That track seems to favour the mid engine Stingray over the more powerful front engine c7, interesting, great racing.

[@vastaire81]

As much as I love Acura’s, I have to say, that TLX had it easy throughout most of that event.

Exactly, if I owned the ZR1, and after the 370 nearly hit him more than once. I would of just gave it to him. 370 driver is wreckless because he's willing to wreck himself or others to win.
