Getting serious when the Porta potties are there.

Watching the flyover shots at the end, I feel like it would be beneficial for traffic flow to route the entrance road around the back of the announcer stand, over closer to the trees. That was you could more easily separate off the area for competitors vs spectators when trying to use more of the available asphalt for events like auto-x
@betternbrown we have definitely talked about doing that. It would be a lot better for big trucks/trailers as well.
If you'd like to support the track, the best way you can do it at zero cost is by being subscribed to the channel, liking, and sharing this video. We have come a long ways, and have a LONG ways to go. Thank you to everyone that's supported us in so many ways thus far.
I can't wait to see how far we can go!
It is fantastic to see the progress you are making on the track. I have been watching since the start of this endeavor, and it is amazing what some hard work will do, to allow the track to breathe a new fresh life.
Thank you for sticking around since the start. It's been a heck of a long road, lol. At the end of the day, this is where hard work and persistence will get you. There's been no "big break" like some folks may consider being the only avenue towards being successful in what you are aiming at.
You've come such a long way and in a relatively short amount of time. It's not like you've been able to work year round. You've had winters to contend with and you're raising a family AND working a full time job!! Incredible!! Watching you put life back into this property basically by yourself, proves that with a lot of hard work but more importantly passion, you can succeed in fulfilling your dreams.
I can't believe this is the same place you showed us from your 1st video after purchasing it!! You've done sooo much work; Cutting the grass, clearing bush, cutting down trees, cleaning out and moving the tower, painting the tower, putting in Jersey Barriers, grading surfaces, filling in cracks in the track, laying asphalt, putting up fencing, painting, fixing tractors, improving the garage, getting permits and taking care of all the paperwork, getting a timing and scoring system, draining Lake Black River and other water issues, `installing seating areas, securing food and beverages, putting in a sound system, building a bridge, installing bathroom facilities, recycling, tying old tires, I'm sure I'm missing a lot more. You're doing everything the right way too. You're not half-assing anything!!
Your quote about it being a game of inches is exactly right! One project at a time. There will always be something to do in an endeavor like this and you don't want to have to go back and do something a 2nd time!! This whole project has been about a grassroots a project as you can get.
The experience you are gaining with this will be invaluable! You should definitely be taking notes and putting together contact info, places or people to go to get what you need, ideas that worked or didn't work, reasoning behind your thoughts and ideas. You could put together a " How To ___" guide or book that you can turn into $$$ to help finance your projects. Hell with today's technology you could even put together a kind of multi-media type guide/book/video that could help others not only in cars or track related stuff but in any other kind of business/passion project.
OK, sorry I'm getting a little carried away. I'm just so impressed with what you've done with this so far. It's inspirational!! Keep it going and Cheers!!
that would be cool to bring back the drag strip
Agree 100%. Unfortunately, it comes down to money.
Slowly add back sections eventually it will be done
The track just keeps getting better and better.
That's the goal. It won't grow in leaps and bounds, but over time, it's going to be a really cool place.
What you have done is amazing! Thanks
There's a lot of people to thank for all of the help and support! Appreciate you watching and supporting from afar 👍🏻👍🏻
You should definately consider inviting/organising RC Car events. You have tons of space for them, both asphalt and dirt.
There's a couple of rc clubs that are local. Good idea 👍🏻👍🏻
Great progress! Keep chipping away at it.
That's the plan, thank you!
Massive improvement from the start to now! 😎
Definitely have to step back and see where it all started. It took a long time, and we're still moving forward.
Another quality video, love seeing the place come along!
Thanks for watching 👍🏻👍🏻
I have also been watching all the Hard work and improvements from the Beginning..
Awesome work on your Dream
The progress is amazing. You have done so much with little money and the helps with sponsors is very cool.
Ha, making lemonade out of a lemon. We are getting somewhere over time!
We all know this is just burning money and we appreciate you for being the one to do it. Keeping racing alive is such a tough business. I wonder if Cleeter could be convinced to sponsor the track in some way. A lot of good people in the car community willing to help one another and I think he might go for it.
I had that thought and wanted to share.
Why do you think this is just burning money?
Thank you for being one of the people that is saving motor sports love watching the videos
Always an awesome day when there is a track update!
For sure 👍🏻👍🏻
Epic you got that help.
You know it's a good day when there's snow on the ground and a man working in shorts.
Ha. That's spring in Northern WI for you. 65 and snow on the ground 🤣
Looking better and better every Vid. Well done, its been great to follow you with this.
Thanks for following along! I'll be sharing every notable change as they develop.
I've been here since you posted about buying the property. You have improved the property a lot on a tight budget. Well done.
Great to see you again Mr Greenlight!! Track property is growing with ever video visit!! Congratulations on the improvements Brother!!
Thanks for checking in, Craig! We are always working at making the place better.
@@Greenlightfilming So Much progress since Day One is amazing! Great job Mr Greenlight
Great progress !
Thanks Dave 👍🏻
The flyovers of the track show so many of the small improvements, it looks great.
They definitely do. It's hard to tell how much changes from day to day, but month to month, it's noticeable. We're working on things as time and money allow.
Great job! You should sell advertising space on the blocks and jersey barriers!
Track has come along way...Looking great
Thank you! Big changes over time, that's for sure.
By far one of the best track renovations I’ve seen. This place looks amazing. You have done an incredible job with your team. Keep up the good work
Have been following from the east coast since you bought the track. So awesome to see the facilities being brought back to life. Hope you and your team are able to have a great time enjoying the fruits of your labor. Cant wait to see the karting track back in action as well. Looking forward to the next video.
Will post an update on the Karting situation as soon as we have a relevant update. Thanks for being supportive and watching the updates as we post them 👍🏻
Always enjoy the track update videos. Cool seeing the logo on a few things at the track.
This year I'm focusing more on branding, etc. You'll see more and more things over time.
in addition to painting the blocks with a Black River branding, maybe if you have some paint left i could imagine putting BRMP on each side of the blocks in the middle of the track.
Keep up the great work!
greetings from Germany :)
Interesting to see the progress being made , actually beginning to look like a proper venue . Nice to see your son running about , I play daycare for my 3 year old grandson so I can identify with the little kid cars scattered about . I'd put at least some type grill over that culvert pipe lest rocks , branches , etc. clog it up .
It's definitely taking time to fully take shape, but it's getting there. One step at a time, as money allows.
We have a haggle of kids out there half the time when we are working. It's sort of like afternoon daycare 🤣
Looks awesome!
Greetings from New Hampshire. Just grabbed a T and a sticker. Keep up the good work, and thank you for being a steward of our sport.
Thank you! When they show up, shoot me a photo of where the sticker ends up, and I'll share it on our Facebook page/instagram, etc.
I really appreciate your support!

You go hard mate… Onya 👍🏻
Thank you 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Lot I want to say ! - But keeping it Short - Freakin Killer Transformation !!
Thanks, buddy. It's been a big change since day one, that's for sure.
I wish you the very best of success.
Thank you sir!
Looking great 👍
Thank you!
Awesome progress!! And the guy in the skid.. man, he whistles that thing. It's pretty satisfying to watch.
He's a pro in a skidsteer. There's no doubt
awsome work
Thanks! A lot of folks are owed thanks for this update.
Really nice vid !
One tip that you might of not thought about:
You can get a big rotary sander that you normally use to sand wooden deck
You can buy a nylon brush attachment and you have yourself the best dirt grass cleaning tool !
We used it to bring back and old driveway on my grandpa property
I commend you on your dedication. I've been here since you got the place. It truly amazing to see the progress. Doin it on a shoestring budget requires good planning and you've got that locked in. Keep up the great work. I'm rootin fer ya.
I was going to say that you needed to hare your gravel parking lot! Tie an old mattress springs to the back of your four-wheeler with about 6 ft of rope and drag it around for a while! This 's what we used to do back in the day to smooth out hayfields before we would plant them with grass because it makes bailing go a lot easier when you're not bouncing around on the tractor or the hay baler!!
It really works great, doesn't it. It's kind of amazing how low tech, and effective it is.
Fantastic work Brian!
Thanks Freddy 👍🏻
For long term maintenance, keep an eye out for a rotating brush sweeper attachment for your backhoe.
Been shopping for one for the john deere mower I've got. They make a pto sweeper for it.
Loooks good can’t wait to see it next Saturday!
Hope it doesn't rain 🤣
Wow, track looking awesome. It has come such a long ways.👍
🤔 maybe You could have sponsors on the concrete barrier blocks
That's a good idea. Not sure how to make it work in a cost effective way, but I'll come up with something.
Stencils can be expensive because of the large format, unless they are one time use.
Great work man!
Thank you! Tons of folks to thank that made this possible thus far. You guys included that are watching progress.
I beam for grading .,. A length of chain link fence works well too, just use a piece of pipe on one end and attach the tow chain on that end.
I've been watching your efforts and progress since the beginning. You deserve to proud as heck for sticking to your game of inches. Slow & steady does win the race and you will look back on what you've created someday and be able to say, "I did this"...of course there was help along the way, but it would've never happened without your hard work and sacrifice. Stick to your plan!
Well, that's very kind of you to share. Thank you! This would have in no way, shape or form happened without a ton of help and support.
Great progress! Aesthetics and creature comforts!! I know you run banners on the fences, maybe banners between the blocks too
Lookin good dude! I'm going to have to see if I can make a trip up for one of the autox's. Love seeing the improvements stacking up over time.
Dark Country music, love it.
Me too
More and more upgrades in every video. Great work as always folks!! 👍👍
Always moving forward 👍🏻👍🏻 thanks for tuning in again
10 blocks. 10 letters in Black River.
Exactly what will be there.
Man I love your videos. Keep it up!
Thank you sir
That drain is going to help a lot. You should have put it about a foot lower and it would be dry all the time and bring down the water shed.
The machine lost a hydraulic line, so we finished what we could at the depth we were at.
It's nice to see an old track being brought back to life. I think that your new drain may come back and bite you though. If it's going to have a lot of traffic over it you used the wrong pipe and didn't put it deep enough. It looked like you used PVC and it won't hold up to very much weight before crushing. It should also have been at least eighteen inches deep, and about twice as big in diameter. I know you are just trying to keep the water out of a low area, but when it collapses it will make it worse. Great progress overall though.
Great to see all this going on! The same music, is starting to get tired tho.
I would sell advertising space on the new blocks. Local restaurants, auto parts stores, etc. may be interested.
We have some great sponsors that have their banners on the fence during event days. We will look into more ways to advertise at the track going forward.
Broski, that culvert you did would work 100x better if you didn't just lay the pipe on the ground. You need to dig some what of a hole for the water to collect in then throw some rock down and then the pipe. Have a good spot for the water to collect then the pipe at its lowest point and the water will just do its thing. What ypu have there is a clogged pipe waiting to happen. And it's nothing expensive just a little labor.
Also that pipe will freeze solid in the winter and they will have the same issue next spring.
It shouldn't really hold water, it actually sits pretty high.
Maybe I'm missing something, but where we put the pipe, there's no ditching that feeds it at all. It's a low spot that runoff from the softball field gathers and sits.
It really shouldn't ever have to handle any major flow. Should run off just fine as water reaches the height of the pipe?...
You have 10 Blocks, I think a very basic "B L A C K R I V E R" would look good
.
That's exactly what we'll do. Can't believe I didn't think of that 🤣
maybe spell out 'Black River' on the blocks.
Thanks for the suggestion. A couple of folks mentioned that, and I'll be doing it. Great idea.
For the block do B L A C K R I V E R
Nailed it
Motocross track would be cool too???
what about the Clay Track ? have you done anything with it ?
Nothing since the last update. Surface is still drying out, and burning bans have been in effect.
Love ur videos bro.... Hate the music.... Keep doin what ur doin...
Thanks, Bart. Can't please everyone with music selection. If you might suggest some 100% copywrite free/no license required audio you are familiar with, I'd be happy to check it out.
@@Greenlightfilming i was just stating my opinion..... I still do, and am going to, keep watching your videos.... Just cause I don't like the music doesn't mean everyone else has to hate it... For real keep doin what ur doin bro... Ur doing great!
for the bricks... B L A C K R I V E R is 10 letters ;)
It was destiny
SALE ADVERISING ON THE BLOCKS
It's a shame that you put those pipes in with the collars the wrong way around, good job that it is a snug fitting plastic, well done though.
i would put more gravel over that pipe, if a heavy truck goes over it it will break,
How on earth you keep finding enough funds to do all this I don't know.
Selling plasma. It's not much but it's honest work.
You could paint Black River on the blocks, would look super cool. It’s all looking great, though.
