Her personality is great. It genuinely makes me happy that Cleet has her on the channel and she seems so laid back and enjoying herself. Makes for great content lol
I like how Maddi didn't blink her whole first run and wasn't even halfway through before having a huge ass smile! Second run, already pissed at her reaction time lol. Just out there gettin' it!
That was the smile of drag addiction :P. Something tells me we will be seeing her drag one of the cars more often and maybe even hit up one of the drag weeks with Cleeter and james.
"Now I understand " Cleetus that statement alone makes her a keeper. Because you will never find another woman that knows what it is to do what you do, and why you spend so much time doing it. Congrats on a great time !
Love the support you have for Maddie. You can tell there’s true love there. The shakes and smile she had shows she’s got the drag bug! Hell yeah brother!
Halfway through her first pass, she cracks the biggest smile but the adrenaline is keeping her focused on her driving... not until after she makes her first pass that she cannot hold back her joy. Ripping on a jetski, dirtbike or race car will give you that same adrenaline. I’ve been addicted to the rush since 10 years old, I’m 28 now and no drug compares to the feeling
My favorite part of this vid was madis pass how serious her face was then she cracked that big ass smile. She’s a definite keeper Cleetus!!! Love all you guys
She is such a perfect match for you Cleetus. You being such a car guy (understatement of the century), and she is genuinely interested in learning and driving as well. It's not that easy to find a woman that fits you and your lifestyle so perfectly. Congrats buddy!!
New series idea. Have Maddie pick her own older car like how Leroy started to prep for drag racing. Do the entire build and go through her wrenching along with you and the boys making her her own car. That would be wholesome and just awesome.
If thats something SHE would like (plz dont force her for "content" ofc) that is deffinately something i DO want to watch, very badly... that or watch her learning to drift, imagine watching her and cleet tandem :P (kind of like how Colette and Adam LZ are doing tandems now )
Loved seeing the smile on Maddi's face grow with every mile n hour on her passes, and the way she spoke to camera during slow down, she's a natural! Gotta get her a proper car now.
Cleeter has himself a keeper. She seems so much more genuine than all girls these days. I know we don't want to focus on her but I know he has to be a happy guy and happy guy = better content. I'm genuinely happy for him.
and then comes reality of why are our 60' times and ET not perfect with MPH higher than the rest...... "oh no, I've said to much, I haven't said enough
@Super Saiyan SmurfI doubt it, her & Cleet were in 2 completely different galaxies. Only thing they had in common was law school. She was a looker, I'll give her that, but probably more high maintenance than a lot full of 70s British sportscars. Cleetus, or any other self-respecting guy for that matter, doesn't need that shit in his life.
My fiirst pass was 14.1 in a 1985 Mustang GT with a 4 second 60 foot, one wheel peel action. Was at Bandemere high school drags. Mild built 302 and a T5 with 308 rear end.

@@MrDutch1e Yeah. Dude managed to match the generic Dutch Tesla Taxi's in that C8 with that pull lmao. Definitely not impressed...matching a generic, large airport Taxi in a C8 lmao.
That's the problem with, well modern cars in general, they're too competent. It's not exciting to go quick if you don't have to do anything, no inputs, no decisions, no shifting. Yawn.
Dude you TOTALLY found the perfect lady!! You guys seem super genuine and couldn't be happier for you two! And she fucking KILLED it on her first pass!!
Garrett, From an Old Man! I have to say, you seem like a good dude who has a pretty big heart! You take care of all those in your inner circle as well as some strays! You put yourself way out there on the line. You also are a good judge of corrector in choosing friends! They seem to be good people as well! Well done!!
Cletus, you guys have been sandbagged!!!😁😄 Seriously, She’s a natural racer-no nerves on the line, none in the quarter mile until her smile lit up like Vegas! Can’t wait til she does some passes in a race setup!
And then ride off in two cars, one with "just" written in the back window and the other with "married" in it's back window. Oh, and they start their ride at the drag strip, complete with tin cans tied to the rear end.
I’m happy that the comments haven’t been full of pervs and creeps. I know Cleet was nervous to get her on camera because of that, but it seems to be alright so far. She brings out a different side of Cleetus that we otherwise don’t get to see.
This young woman is the best thing to happen to your chanel and your life . Here is to Maddie, she is so hooked. looking forward to the future content.
She is a natural,,,,glad to see she loves drag racing and cars as much as you do,,,,she seem very relaxed to tell you the truth,,,,Corvette made that car really simple to drive any other car wouldn't be that smooth running the times you guys ran today,,,,Very Cool,,,,thanks for sharing that vid with us,,,,,

Absolutely
I like her attitude, and she doesn't seem all super full of herself.
Looks to me she already has a car.

Exactly what I was gonna say lol
"Now I understand" as she crosses the line.....cleeter you've created a monster.
Shirley McFarley.
Hehe put my wife in the nitrous camaro I had.... hooked on her first pass. She never complained about buying parts again
Same
just did the same thing to my wife with pc gaming.
she needs her own drag car
Poor coop and james, they never get a "I love you" before running the car down the track.
Don't miss coop at all he is boring she is much better he's so dry
I think I've seen James whisper it to Ruby a few times though :)

That was the smile of drag addiction :P. Something tells me we will be seeing her drag one of the cars more often and maybe even hit up one of the drag weeks with Cleeter and james.
Check out Gale Force Twins on UA-cam
good ol cleeter has her hooked on them 1/4 mile rips.
Florida woman rips C8 in first quarter mile pass: "I'm mad at my reaction time!" Yeah, she's gonna fit in just fine!
"Now I understand " Cleetus that statement alone makes her a keeper. Because you will never find another woman that knows what it is to do what you do, and why you spend so much time doing it. Congrats on a great time !
I was going to say the same thing but now I don't lol
That little smile she cracked 3/4 down was genuine AF.
Thought the same thing! Extreme focus until about the 1/8th or so then she let that smile go. What a keeper
I was watching for her to blink, and she never did until about the turn off. Without question, laser focus.
Yea this was a super good episode I loved the description of how it starts you go slow then you just wanna start modifying and it's a slippery slope 😂
Love the support you have for Maddie. You can tell there’s true love there. The shakes and smile she had shows she’s got the drag bug! Hell yeah brother!
"OMG Now I get it!" - And at that moment a drag racer was born...
The exact moment was the giant smile that hit her face about halfway down the strip! 9:07
now add some nos to get that 11.0 :)
That transition from serious mode to weeeee halfway down the strip was awesome :D
Damn near brought a tear to my eye
@@6jonline thats was really awesome to see
Wasn’t going to shut that door till she got that “I love you too”. haha
huge test right there, she digs ol' Cleet.
I showed my lady cuz ol cleeter is my fav and she thought it was cool too😇
It brought a little tear to my eye lol
I also caught that LOL....
Only way that door was getting closed before she got it was if his head was getting shut in it lol
Halfway through her first pass, she cracks the biggest smile but the adrenaline is keeping her focused on her driving... not until after she makes her first pass that she cannot hold back her joy.

"Either something's gonna break or we're gonna go fast!" Needs to be their next shirt. Make it happen Cleeter!!
As a DSM'er I would buy this because it's my life.
Stickers to
Ngl, I’m down for this. Make it subtle and awesome
Go fast or get broke ⚒💰
Another DSMer here....and I've lived that motto for a while now lol
My favorite part of this vid was madis pass how serious her face was then she cracked that big ass smile. She’s a definite keeper Cleetus!!! Love all you guys
Right! Haha smiles cheek to cheek all round
Yeah that first pass she didn't even blink until she passed the finish line lol! Too adorable!
The forth gear smile...
That first smile is the best!! What a first rip!!
“Oh my god. I understand now.” I think we all remember thinking that exact though lol welcome to the club!
You know Cleetus was smiling while he edited the part of the video where Maddi did her first drag race. UA-cam’s cutest couple. 😍
She is such a perfect match for you Cleetus. You being such a car guy (understatement of the century), and she is genuinely interested in learning and driving as well. It's not that easy to find a woman that fits you and your lifestyle so perfectly. Congrats buddy!!
Madi: Hey babe I'd love to have twins
Cleet: Well....in that case we should get on the phone with Precision
THAT'S A GOOD ONE 😂🤯😂
Loool
🤣
Man Im stoooped. I had to read this 4 times to understand the joke. Damn I’m too slow lol
Xavier weed will help u
Watching her face go from serious to smiling at half track is the best part
"you went 1.6 seconds after the green light"
"Madi is going again"
That's the spirit!
Next t-shirt?
I laughed pretty hard.
New series idea. Have Maddie pick her own older car like how Leroy started to prep for drag racing. Do the entire build and go through her wrenching along with you and the boys making her her own car. That would be wholesome and just awesome.
Kinda reminds me of Molly on SRC..

Yes a build. Great idea. That C8 would be cool turbocharged. But pay that kinda money who is gonna do that ?? Hint
Eh
Absolutely she would be more knowledgeable than the chicks at Americanmuscle.com day 1

Agreed
Same!

"Now I understand"...! That was so cool...!!!
6 months from now
Cleet: I'm so excited madi is about to do her first 6 second pass in the elco
🤣🤣
God! I'm excited to finally see what they do with that bad boy.. the Elco is going to flatten Leroy..
YESSS!!!
It’s all fun and games until Madi beats Cleet in the next Freedom 500
Maddie after her first ever pass: "Now I understand"
Maddie in about a months time: "Why aren't we running 10's yet dammit?!" :)
No. Why aren't we running 7s
and then comes reality of why are our 60' times and ET not perfect with MPH higher than the rest...... "oh no, I've said to much, I haven't said enough

Can't tune the c8's so its not gonna be spicy yet

Crown vic is the best car ever !

me: Well, looks like she's addicted now. 😄
The wiggle in the seat. The motivated stare. The smile past the 8th. She's addicted. Cleet. You created a new passionate drag racer. Y'all are legit couple goals.
Kevin holding himself back from saying “this needs way more power”
Lol as soon as he passed like the 60' his face looked disappointed for sure.
I was wondering if he would fall asleep before the end.. he looked somewhat impressed when he launched, but that quickly faded
@@MrDutch1e Yeah. Dude managed to match the generic Dutch Tesla Taxi's in that C8 with that pull lmao. Definitely not impressed...matching a generic, large airport Taxi in a C8 lmao.

Madi kicked both of your butts! I love the big smile she got between the 330 and the 8th - She's hooked for life now.
when she hit end of third gear and that smile kicked in i knew she was hooked lmfao love it.....
Riiiiiight after she remembered she needed to breathe...Happens to a lot first timers.
Yyyyep!!!
Was thinking the exact same.
The moment a petrolhead is born!
Wait till she gets to play with nitro... that will really turn her around :) I`d like to see her rip the Dale truck!
“Most people’s first pass at the drag strip is like a 15”
Me: *hides 17 second slip under my bed*
17.70 at 78 is mine. Don't worry
Also you: **posts publicly about it**
Mines hardly a 14 but it was mostly the car, had a c300
15.3 cuz I forgot to disable T/C. So he got mine on the head. Next pass was 14.7. Still slow, but better.
@@dustinmervin9391 mine was a joke too ;)
10:17 "Now I understand! " You're awesome Chick! Congrats on the first pass Madi.
Madi did great! She is super intense then that smile comes on about half way through the pass. 😃 I think she's a natural.
Maddi's smile mid run is the reason we live for this shit!! We all know that feeling.
Oh Yeah!
Maddie’s great! So cool to see her appreciating the car. I’m glad she is on the channel.
Dude you TOTALLY found the perfect lady!! You guys seem super genuine and couldn't be happier for you two!
And she fucking KILLED it on her first pass!!
Cleetus trying to explain to Madi how to launch..
Madi: “Like this?..” looks like a natural.
Well, you basically have to release a pedal and the car does the rest. So any layman would be a natural in a car like that.
@@The_Noticer. Mmm... Maybe. There are a lot of terrible drivers in the world.

12:05 "COME ON LETS GO" you got her hooked bro, now she's gonna (in the words of Rickey Bobby) wanna go fast!
the smile on her face shes hooked start building her a car cleeter
Start building...? She already laid claim to the C8, bro.
The big smile on Madi's face so golden......way to go girl. She's hooked now. Just give her the keys Cletter.
Kevin’s all like “weeeeeee”. He might be more cold blooded than James haha
Kevin just became a supercharger hahaha
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah that cracked me up 😂
I think Kevin used to race like almost pro mod level cars? I could be wrong about that but I've heard he's been in some really fast cars.
😂
Exactly at 09:08 it happened... Look at her face, she became a true believer there :)
And then she said it "Now I get it..." - Love it!
“Weeeeeee” the hype was too real for Kevin 😂😂
"Hello, Texas speed? Just looking for a 427 in a ladies size, whatcha got?"
Hahaha I love it
The smile on maddy’s face was so perfect! She’s a keeper cleetus!
Madi
We all know damn well as he’s editing it and saw her smile it warmed his heart :)
You’re a lucky man Cleeter! She’s a keeper! That smile half way down the track said it all.
Now its time to have Madi run Ruby! I'm so glad she is a part of the channel! She is awesome!
Can we talk about Kevin's reaction time at 5:05? That was some NHRA quality stuff there.
exactly what I thought when I first seen it. I was like damn he's just on the verge of red light....split miliseconds
His r/t was .189 to Cleetus's .664
Lightning fast!
Coming soon to a Cleeter Shop near you: Pink t-shirt with "I get it now" on the back.
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha that's actually not a bad idea.......Hey Cleet............
Hell Yeah Sister shirts out soon
Pink shirt with that blue ass c8 on the back. While it’s launching from the line.
everyone would wear that. and i want mine signed.
i think it was "now I understand" but still funny as hell😂 would definitely buy one for my lady

"James, grab the bottle" - Madi
How the tables have turned 😂😂
Madi's such a character, her mannerisms are hilarious. She's also a natural born ripper, and a keeper.

@@skippy3145 I'll leave in 5 minutes if Garrett calls me 🤣
That C8 should definitely be Madi's 'drag' car when you guys go out to the track with the boys. She's for sure hooked.
I think she will want to go faster, like in the 9's, Cleetus might have to be working on the C8 to shave a few seconds and add more MPH soon...
I love the smile on her face she was tryin to hold it back that was great good job

"On paper my Subaru should run in the high tens . . . . Unfortunately the drag strip is made of concrete and asphalt which made it run a 14"
aww it's so cute how concentrated she is but then a huge smile cracks!
“Race Hand Strong” .....she’s hilarious man!

Madi: I love you
Cleet: *hesitates* i.... love you too
😂😂
I'm pretty sure he was talking to his car... 😉
Hell yea madi!! That smile 2/3’s down the track, she’s hooked!
Cleetus: "I Kinda want another Subaru"
I feel bad for james
I feel like James would LS swap it with a powerglide and 9". Then it would just be the Unibody tearing apart from 1000 lb ft of twin turbo 427.
