2022 FREEDOM FACTORY SPECTATOR DRAGS CHAMPIONSHIP!!! $10,000 TO WIN!!!

[@matthewd2388]

I had a blast even with car issues, but I will 100% be back next year! 🏁

You killed it out there, pumped you were able to race after making the trip down! Looking forward to the next! 💪🏁

Your beautiful Camaro really gave the Model S a good run👍 You got that thing running so smooth both in straights and corners, I always enjoy watching you race it !

[@nissanboy97]

Hell yeah brother, can't wait to see you tear it up!!

[@fpSmoker]

absolutely love the Camaro one of my favorite cars growing up and cant wait to see you out there again. Your car is a serious competitor.

[@petertimowreef9085]

I just can not believe I've only learned of this form of motorsport recently, it's so much fun holy shit! Super accessible so you see a tonne of different cars, and a single lap around a small oval is the perfect quick and dirty way of finding out who's car/driver combo is fastest that day.

[@richardf6932]

You should see when they run the school bus demolision course....

[@dadbod4life]

Its hard not to enjoy a good spectator race. Well done, great footage and lineup.

[@XiseTK]

@1:10:43 you can see the EVO cut in on Mike, That black batch is the edge of Mike's lane and EVO cuts in instead of winding it out up towards the wall. This is the point where they should be throttling out of the corner and the EVO is still turning in WTF?

[@MrDandcrazy]

Might be easier to ask where the Evo driver is from and where the 3000gt driver is from? That goes a long way lol

[@AustinApologue]

Crap, where did that last hour go ... once I start I can't stop. Thank you guys and hats off to these weekend warriors!

[@mike_oe]

58:00 the M5 backed off as the blazer was all over the place. He bullied himself to the win because the other guy was more careful of his car. Not nice.

[@charlesmichels7873]

That’s always how he drives. All over, might hit ya. It’s annoying af

[@sftrkrt07]

At 38:45 he let's off sandbagging his time and almost cause a crash with the black SUV.... Cletus friends get a lot of "advantage"

[@flyeaglesfly123]

I like the hellcats, have one of my own, but if you put a turn in the race there win chances go down by a insane amount lol

[@ronwhitmill7068]

So Evo cuts VR4 off and VR4 gets booted? Add that to the Black truck/corvette incident and there have been more than one or two unfair judgement calls being made.

Some people think their car is fast until they bring it to a track lol. I took my 06 3.9L V6 monte carlo to the track for fun. On the streets, it's beaten most of the cars that tried me in it. It's not exactly fast either. Does 0-60 in 7 flat. Took it to the track and was probably in the bottom 10 slowest cars there lol. Even a 3.6L GMC terrain with 4 people in it ran almost a second faster than I ran.

[@spooler7828]

I personally wasn't too happy about the cars. It has turned into "He who has the most money Wins." The track Tesla was just over the top and shouldn't have competed.

[@MrDandcrazy]

Another “rich guy in a Tesla” comment. 75% of that field could buy a Tesla and then some before spending the money they have on their cars. It’s incredible how dumb some people are who actually follow racing or even “like cars” at that

[@BUILTFORDTOUGH79]

To an extent, I fully agree. How do you police that though? You also have to think from the standpoint of entertainment, which leads back to Cleetus making money. Although we all enjoy his content, he’s in it for money at the end of the day for the family…. Like it or not.

[@Nordgrinder]

Thank you, TBERG! That was awesome!!!

[@revengefullobster4524]

Great coverage! The east coast guys represented pretty well against some fast cars! How appropriate it was that Highway to Hell was playing during the Tesla vs Vette race... Thanks for posting!

[@DanKoning777]

Honesty the word "appropriate" and the "Highway to Hell" theme are closely related yet not by racing, but when God removed His hand of blessing from America while "We The People" were banning God from all the places He was *once* honored in favor of: "No stop signs, speed limit, nobody's gonna slow me down; like a wheel gonna spin it nobody's gonna mess me around. Hey Satan payin' my dues, playin' in a rockin' band; hey mumma look at me I'm on the way to the promised land." 60 yrs later people complain daily re: their corrupt/failing nation, but saying "God bless America" while avoiding Jesus Christ.

You're getting better and better with the editing, that was an AMAZING lineup of cars of all types as well. Those two Corvettes are something else, I wonder what kind of tires they use almost handling like some GT4 class racecar....glad to see the 'ol F-Body cars handling along with much younger and more refined machines ! Great show as always👌

[@spooler7828]

I was not happy with what happened to Vincent. I saw a different angle and it is a hard one to call. The Evo should have drifted up a bit, that's what you would think would happen. It was disappointing to say the least.

[@MrDandcrazy]

100% agree. Jumping the gun on that decision as most tracks do. Some say he ran up on the evo but I think it’s quite obv that the evo didn’t give Mike his line that he already gained

[@blindsideair]

I felt like the Evo came towards the inside of the track and took his line. Should have been the same call as when the corvette got pushed into the wall. Otherwise they open up the ability for anyone with the lead to cut off the other driver. I realize the the FF team is doing the best the can at running fun events and its much easier to analyze something after the fact on video. I'd like to hear a FF member comment on that incident now that they have had time to review.

[@BillyJoeJimBob28]

Yeah. I thought they should have just given that race to the Evo & kept on racing! No DQ. 🥴

👌Thoroughy enjoyed video. Tesla (EV) should have a short delay time at start, given that instanteneous acceleration there's evidentally a disadvantage to the rest (ICE). Kudos to the EVO, my Man of the day!

[@KnA_Racing]

I'd love to see this become a streetcar shootout style race where the cars have to drive 50 miles before they race. Would eliminate some of the full blown race cars. Great coverage as always. Glad I could hear the exact moment my supercharger belt left me stranded.

[@EvoGuyOfficial]

I don’t believe there was a car there that couldn’t accomplish this, even the vettes. They road race so I’m sure they could cruise for an hour. I would like to see a stricter tire rule to include side syping, to eliminate Hoosiers and other cornering slicks
