WE WENT FOR IT AND THIS HAPPENED....My First Trip To Placerville Speedway!

[@azhunt0996]

Home sweet home. I love that track. Spent 5 years crewing on a 360 sprint team. Great memories after high school. It's a challenge to most drivers. Tough break man. Come back and conquer Pville.

[@travishanner9970]

Mario Andretti once said : If everything seems under control, you're not going fast enough!! And my dad said "if you don't wreck one every now and then, you ain't pushing hard enough". Shake it off....cars not hurt, you're not hurt, it's part of the game. I still think you got an EPIC season ahead of you!!!

[@caderatliff3712]

This vid is shades of how you'd been race day vlogging for years ... awesome to see again! Watched the race on Flo and it looked like you got pinched low by 7c, who impatiently almost wrecked twice in the previous lap. After passing you with a close slide job & drifting high coming out of four they had to know you'd be positioned underneath for a rematch entering one. And they _had_ to see your entire right front quarter on their immediate left before they started the turn. Hell, they had the entire outside 3/4s of the track to race on. But nope. They chose the old blind fool's dive bomb instead. Just glad to see you're okay. 👍👍

[@OutLaWClone]

By the looks of it, the 7c car had a clear track up top too.

[@caderatliff3712]

@@OutLaWClone All the way to the cushion.

[@jerrycampbell6181]

Seat time an learning , have to have patience an luck , but if you don't go for it at times you are just driving around in circles ! I'm so glad you are not injured , the car can be fixed , but you are the brain's of the outfit ! Keep Slinging Dirt an learning !!! Thank You to the whole THR TEAM !!! GOD BLESS Y'ALL !!!

[@glenstark7973]

Glad you're okay...if nothing else, the car looked good all the way around..building a champion!

[@unclebones2488]

thank you Tanner no worries you are on the right track , both you & Carly are clean & aggressive what it takes to win !

[@fresnokidsr]

Glad to see that you're okay. Good to see that it looks like the wings as pretty as they were they did they're job of absorbing the impact of the roll I hope that nothing else is wrong with the car. Yep like you said that's a part of racing. It's sucks but that's also one of the things that I really really love about racing for the most part especially in midgets and sprints the cars are so well built that the drivers survive the wrecks with usually no more than a bump, bruise, a scratch and maybe a bruised ego. Haha thank you for sharing again and may y'all Have fun and take care

[@tfstax]

I live in Placerville know some of the racers and I can hear everything going on from my house. Glad you’re good man great racer

[@yeahnahyeah]

Always enjoy your yt vids and always awesome getting to watch ya race on a floracing stream. You were doing so well at Placerville for your first. Best of luck with your season from a New Zealand fan

[@itsyoboypayton6827]

Glad you are ok and never give up

[@johnpaki1534]

Woohoooo! I'm back, had a awesum austrailian/new Zealand dirt and tarmac season one of the best seasons iv ever had and now it's all over😞 can't wait to send you some footage, hey hard luck with the race as long as your ok that's all that matters, much love from the winged warriors of new zealand😎

[@merge.jr_]

Super happy I got to finally watch you race! Hopefully you come back!!

[@dbsnyder4503]

Glad you're OK. To move forward on a bullring, ya gotta take chances. Most times ya make it! Sometimes ya don't. It's all part of it. In a sprint, if you don't turn turtle every now and then. You aren't trying hard enough.

[@tfatcher]

You said at the end of last season that you have to be a bit more aggressive to run with the big boys. Don't fret. You got skills.

[@melabshier5812]

I think Gomes in the 7 chopped you. He started 7th and was getting passed. So he was up on the wheel trying not to drop further back. That's my take Kiddo. Weather doesn't look good for Grays Harbor Saturday. Are you switching from your schedule and heading back to California to race this weekend?

[@DillanBaldwin67B]

100% agree

[@rallyman1122]

That was my impression as well. Tanner got chopped and ended up on the inside berm and that was all she wrote.

[@kennethyucha7449]

Hang in there you’re in a fabulous spot with your current knowledge base and understanding!! My home track is Elma, gonna look forward to seeing you and your sister race!

[@mr.mertman5711]

A BIG Thank You to You and Your Team for racing at Placerville Speedway. Glad you are ok. Hope to see you in the future! Again, Thank you!!

[@gen2-x364]

Keeping the shiny side up can be challenging at times. Glad to see your ok.

[@raymond3803]

you're

[@briancockrum2719]

You did great Tanner keep up with the videos!

[@rickycox6111]

Glad you're ok. I do think you got some help on the flip. Head up and keep racing hard.

[@janicedorsey3945]

Again, Tanner, you did what you could and it was great as far as you went. Love watching you race, keep it up and keep the blogging going‼️😜😜😜😜👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@benjithetexasguy]

Everyone crashes you just got yours done early in the season, nothin but smooth sailing from here!! I wish u good luck and many wins!!

[@brianwellington42]

Great job handling the situation Tanner! Like you said, it's just the bad part of racing, but I also see a lot of great stuff coming to you in the future! All and all, great job!

[@circletrack7538]

Grandview Speedway is twice as banked as Placerville !! It's a little less than Dover is in Delaware !

[@PpEfti]

Glad you're ok hope you good luck on the next race looking forward to that stay safe

[@PpEfti]

Thank you

[@Las1k]

Placerville is barely a quarter mile around the very top edge of the track that's why it seems so small. Places like Chico are a quarter mile around the bottom. Placerville is the type of place that's valuable to learn how to race moving forward in your career.

[@Evomaseontt]

Hey tanner glad your ok and also glad you came to placerville speedway in california my dad races there in pure stocks 17 nick baldwin and finished 2nd. I was routing for you and Andy forseburg sucks you flipped but hopefully you can come back soon♥️

[@Evomaseontt]

Forseburg started 10th on lap 9-10 92

[@kenlutz6307]

Sucks to tear up equipment but no risks no rewards keep your head up

[@MrKuztumpainterz]

Glad your ok man!!!! New track huge learning curve. Sucks but the main thing your ok. Move forward.. head up and give it hell!

[@cyclingbutterbean]

That rig is mighty long. Would hate to see you folks meet up with the Chippies. "Take to good with the bad" Tanner that's a great attitude. It will go both ways so keep your chin up. It wasn't a boneheaded over aggressive move in my opinion. Keep pluggin' away my man!

[@scotthorner4417]

Nice to see your cars are safe. Wish you could get a race like in outlaw carts and can just fly.

[@stevenbond8168]

Nice Rig &Trailer set up. Sweet

[@j.d.6404]

love your videos Tanner glad you was alright that is a very small track for that many cars I'm thirty-seven from Tennessee been watching sprint cars since I was like four years old

[@joealbert7773]

Jumping on passing opportunities is what racing is about. There are times when it works and times when it doesn't. It looked like a really easy roll over and it looked like you only broke the wing. While you never like tearing up equipment, you have to stay aggressive.

[@jeffomspaugh6691]

Looked dang good in qualifying for never being on the track before.

[@makenna5547]

I was there with my friends then glad you did alright your really amazing

[@johnnyrocket7922]

It's awefully bright out for 11:15pm

[@atctraveler6218]

7 was twitching and not holding his line.. great job..

[@charliewhite3992]

Part of the 2022 upside down club

[@howardwest2707]

The track tends to slick off especially when ya get the winds crossing across the track at 1 and 2 headed towards 3 and 4. Slicks off worse during the summer months. Glad all was okay other than some parts. Good luck at your next race.

[@gregoryrapier3021]

We ran Placerville in the 80s. Great little track but as a car builder and crew chief I hate that red mud. It stains the car and is harder than all get out to clean off. You were looking good. Sorry about the flip but as they say : That's racing. Hope to see you at Grays Harbor raceway up here some day. Would love to hang out in the pits with you guys. I moved up here (Ocean Shores Washington) late 2020. Haven't been to the track yet. Seen some videos one when your sister ran here. I use to race (as crew chief) Vallejo speedway (60s and 70s as a fan) Antioch Speedway 70s 80s (car builder and crew chief) San Jose Speedway (80 to 88 as builder crew chief). We ran open shows at Watsonville, Nevada.

[@TannerHolmes]

Hopefully next weekend we will get to grays harbor

[@racerdad6455]

Let’s go TH!!! Put up 2nd quick, and learned a lot about the dirt there. Keep that chin up🏁

[@deanbanks3392]

I'm glad you're OK Tanner. Threading the needle before the halfway point is not a good thing. Patience man, patience. I was impressed how good you were right out of the trailer. You looked a little slow coming out of 2, otherwise I think you were competitive and could have moved up to the 6-7th spot. The track is cool.

[@Greyson.Kyler429]

It sucks the 410 race got cancelled due to the wind and you put all that work into the 18T just to turn around and having to put the 360 in last minute, plus making it to the feature just to end up crashing 10 laps in. But all you can do is get up, brush the dust off ya and move forward. Hope y'all can do better next race.👍

[@howardwest2707]

That very corner ate me up in my midget lite lol. I threw it in a bit too hard and it shot me down the track and dead center of 1 and 2. Glad you are okay, sucks the damage though.

[@howardwest2707]

Oh and for future reference that big berm down at the bottom of 1 and 2 has a jersey barrier buried under that dirt haha. Unless they have changed it in the past 10 years. When i hit it I found the concrete and bit through the tip of my tongue. Also bruised the heck out of my shoulders from my straps.

[@howardwest2707]

Was that Andy Forsberg in the 7?

[@carolinaghost5451]

just some bad luck, you took a chance, and it did not work out. Glad to see you're ok. your car looked fast out there, just keep on pushing forward.

[@talonhart216]

I really liking how your adding in Carly’s pre talk

[@jonguth4060]

Thanks we enjoy it

[@sammyl8198]

So Tanner, the more I watch u the more I want to become u but my family is going through a very rough time and we don’t have the stuff for me to race so thank u for making me feel like I’m racing with u or I’m racing the car I love the vids keep it up 👍

[@robertcharles1026]

All you can say is , That's racing, as long as you are ok. Get them next week.

[@andersn8racing691]

Glad your okay the car just needed a nap

[@gamingv1nce119]

I know it’s a little far but I think you should check out Eastbay raceway park before they close.

[@abpob6052]

I put in a few laps there. Just like Ocean, it's a hard place to figure out in a short time.

[@jameslink1660]

Placerville one of my favorite tracks being from Oregon haven't been there in a while but still a favorite

[@B_Ransom45]

Yeah, saw that on flo racing. That sucks man, glad your okay!

[@glenchapman3899]

You got a good shout out on Flo racing

[@raymond3803]

Tanner's dad pays for that.

[@benl6020]

Tough race, there’s always next week. You need to come to North Dakota and race at River Cities Speedway!

[@Towing417]

Oh bummer I wish I would've known! Either track is close for me!

[@AdventuresOutdoors]

It happens… no one to blame. Maybe a little more patience. Your a solid racer and getting better.

[@NASCRASH]

IT HAPPENS! That's what your saying!? He fricking flipped

[@richardmourdock2719]

Ok, a statement not really race related.. but if I'd ever had a sister, I would have wanted her to be Carly. Love her attitude, always working, always checking out everything, always in motion... and always telling her brother she loves him before he pushes off. Regarding the video.. knowing the track is 90% of it...Hang in there.

[@keithbeenblossom4313]

You should try Eagle Raceway in Eagle Nebraska

[@ReachOutToWilliam]

My only visit as a spectator to Placerville was with my ~6 year old son. We arrived late, ended up sitting in a clay covered bleacher in Section F near the top. It was a NARC points race, and the drivers threw out signed and numbered Frisbees for their car. We, of course, had no chance to get one, and so we headed to the restrooms. When my son came out of the bathroom, he noticed a Frisbee under the stands, that are fenced in with a chainlink fence. I grabbed the bottom of the fence and pushed him under and he ran and got the Frisbee. As soon as he came out from under the fence, a huge hayseed of a dude grabbed me and said, "That's mine. I dropped it." I gave him a bit of a shove and said, "No way. Get lost." He got real threatening, and so I said, "If it's yours, what's the car number?" He said 14, if I remember right. I turned it over and it was Jason McMillen's car, the number 2, if I recall. Jason did just like you did, Tanner. He saw an opening, went for it and crashed out in the main. When he was interviewed about it he said that he saw an opening and went for it, thinking there was enough room. "It's obvious I was wrong," he said. I think this must be a pretty regular occurrence at Placerville. We will see later this year, as I have tickets for the World of Outlaws event in the fall. Hopefully we will see you there.

[@leonhood2649]

I wish you would have had a better race at my home track. I raced a street stock against super late models when I was in high school. Of course you know this is where Flyin Brian Crocket won multiple 410 & 360 championships sometimes both in the same year.

[@davidjessee7701]

That black car in front of you was all over the place....

[@jw67-dirtkarting76]

Hey Tanner, Looking to buy a shirt from your online store but it says that you don’t ship to Australia? Are we able to organise something please? Cheers mate

[@TannerHolmes]

We don’t message me on Facebook or Instagram and I can get you a quote. Shipping is just super expensive right now for that country

[@natecummins5530]

It says 11:15pm is that correct

[@timothystubbs3515]

Glad to see you ate ok

[@kensnyder9372]

You will have this in motor sports ....................

[@dalejohnson9624]

Glad you're okay it was a pretty soft roll over probably just wrecked the wings probably not too much else but that's all part of it that's dirt racing keep digging

[@kensnyder9372]

Glad you liked my comment's , you got to inject some hummer in this it's only a poker game with wheels on it . Get in the game make some moves you will have to put some thick skin down some times and take some chances . In racing it's called bonzi moves . Keep working on that Q time that moves you in with players...........I watched both races 2 times ...........................

[@jeremy8169]

Driving hard and take chances , get back on the house and ride .👍

[@dannyneihart1821]

Do not feel bad.That infield berm has got many sprinters.

[@reelcountry4177]

So Glad you are okay

[@Dilligads]

"Gotta a wing, use it" Also me: floor board Goodluck next time bro

[@kensnyder9372]

That what you got to do to get good run on any bomb crater tracks you can find , they change from super tacky to super slick all in one lap ..........................

[@Al_Nunnery]

Imma Chicken Hauler that Moves Produce outta Cali'....I'm At Ripon All the dang time .... Wow. .. Awesome 👍 Tanner....Yeah I park my Peterbilt 389 Long Nose at the Flyin' J..

did you drive through somerset?

[@mikes.1882]

Tanner, will you return to placerville?

[@davidsallas7049]

It’s ok get this stuff out of the way still a lot of racing to come this year

[@corybeauchamp7377]

I kinda thought you tried to make a great move to move forward and the guy in the blue car was driving aggressive

[@thomasc5753]

A good wreck is always good for views! I think you should flip once a month or so to keep your channel growing! What do you think? Lol great video as usual!

[@kristopherguyton1032]

hope to see you race there again well by yt

[@jasonlavere5071]

I watched the 7 wildly dive bomb you twice. Mentally, I probably would have done the same thing you did (or maybe used up some more track on him). You just got caught in a pinch point trying not to hit him. Racing mid pack is just tough. It's so cut throat, no one wants to give an inch, even on lap 10 of 25. You need to get some track position to start the race. Need a good baseline setup for qualifying and heat races 👍

[@darryl412]

we need you to get back there

[@TannerHolmes]

I will be back in 2023!

[@SuperstarQ76]

can someone replace the clock in the truck hahahahah

[@TannerHolmes]

I will lol

[@JStewart17]

just a quick question are sprintcars manual or automatic

[@TannerHolmes]

Direct drive

[@rickyrickyrule6451]

Drive it.. like you stole it 👍💪

[@gregbernal3237]

You really have to be up on your game tuning there are they running flat over

[@imacomputer1234]

you definitely got chopped, bad luck!

[@Kronik24971]

Dam what a bummer, main thing is your uninjured to fight another day.

[@benjaminrizzo6573]

Should have stayed on the high side

[@anthonywolf961]

If you don't end up on your top at least ounce a year means u r not racing hard anuff but your skills r improving every race 👍

[@raymond3803]

I'm starting to think you need to switch from KPC to XXX Chassis.
