Yeah, the interviewer looked a little lost at that comment. Also, they call him Cleetus McFarland all the way through, even though that is a joke name .. I wonder if they know ?
I love how cleeter always looks fresh and clean in his videos, but looks like a homeless person on national television. Hell yeah brother. Let er rip, tater chip. 😂🤷♂️
This is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. Cleetus fully committed to seeming as ridiculous as possible while not coming off like he was messing with them. Perfect.
This guy has no idea what the hell you were referring to when you said “hell yeah brother” and “live action” and the totally awkwardness of ripping that “do it for Dale” was just perfect! It’s sadly obviously the reporter has never seen a video of yours
Hey come on man, you can't expect everyone to know who Cleetus is. That's like expecting everyone to know who Iron Maiden are. Unfortunately, not everyone knows or cares what we like.
Im sure he has interviewed real celebrities, He probably just felt super awkward and everyone at the office drew straws to see who had to do the interview lol
What I meant was this guy likely doesn't know the back story of 'Cleetus McFarlane', the character. If he did, he would have worked it in. The Garrett 'Cleetus' story of a joke turning a frustrated new lawyer into a millionaire via UA-cam is honey to media types. Garrett was in 3/4 'Cleetus' character for the imterview. He has slowed it down on the vids we see most of the time. And a lot since the earlier days. And... he's not really 'a celebrity'... A celebrity is someone with a lot more exposure and recognition than 'Cleetus'. He could walk down most streets in the US, and no body would know who he is. He's not even a huge UA-cam celeb. What have they got 1.5 million? Think about how many channels have ten time that much... Not bashing them, I like the guys, well I hate the fuckers, actually, 'cause their living a dream I'm too fucking old to do, but the hate's really admiration, encouragement and best wishes they get to live their dreams to the fullest. I was lucky enough to have a taste, or two, when I was young. So, I wanna see them blow up the friggin' world. I bet ya they end up owning Bradenton within 20 years, (the drag strip, not the town!) Combining the two properties in a Disneyland for gear heads...THE ultmate destination resort! later...
@@danielpv7570 It definitely started as a character but I don't think it is now. He's actually a good ol' boy from Nebraska that loves cars and America. He doesn't put on the super thick accent very often anymore but the whole persona was definitely created just to piss off Kyle from 1320.
D. Hackman I showed neighbor to my boss and he was like “good grief how does he get his money?!” I said he’s a big earning youtuber. They make a lot more money than people think.
So rad dude!!! Came a long way from the turbo whistles in the corvette exhaust video that gained you my subscription. Its been cool to see you rise brother!!!
This is such a GREAT idea man! Open up shows and meets!! You’re a genius man and I’m happy for ya brotha. I honestly think you’re really on to something here Cleetus

Ed was cleetus and coopers neighbor. He was a cool dude who thought what the boys were doing was cool. Cleetus originally bought neighbor to build and let Ed rip it. But he passed away before the car was done.
Yup....I found him back in the day of duck whistles in the exhaust....thought it was stupid but entertaining nonetheless...now...I plant lunch break around new video uploads.

When the reporter says 'back to you', Cleetus begins to raise his right arm and the live feed cut away. But I still heard in my head "We'll freakin' see you later."
This is the rarest news I have ever heard in my life, not once to my memory have I ever heard of a speed way or a race track being opened or re opened, it's always doom and gloom about them being closed.
I can only imagine the old people watching the news said to each other 😂😂😂 “Honey come look at this! Some goofy looking kid wearing a helmet bought that old racetrack!”
So how I old would these Old People need to be? Older people today are more in touch than many younger people give them credit for. That old saying I wasn’t born yesterday goes a long ways for the older people after all many have seen things the younger ones only dream about and have been there long before. So don’t pretend younger people know and accept things the older have already done. Young kids weren’t the first to wear goofy looking helmets or melt the tires off our cars either or to have sex to have younger people around LAMO Thanks
When you start running events or hosting races, you should take a minute and think about what you can offer in terms of kids competitions, for instance karting events or junior dragsters... hell, even junior burnout contests!!! Devide them into classes that are age appropriate for the event, and put safety first, obviously, but then let them run wild and do what they do!!! It would be great if you could use your opportunity to instill healthy competition, good sportsmanship, and good ol American hard work into the up and coming generation of racers and enthusiasts.
Unreal that its only been 1.5 years. Freedom factory content has brought the channel into a new stage. To hear Garrett talk about the plans, short and long term, and now to think about how most have been carried out, is insane. The freedom factory is just as important to the channel as leroy himself. Congrats Garrett.
LOVED IT! Only thing better would be taking the reporter for a ride along!! I’m sure you are already working that angle for the NEXT TV spot! You are my marketing HERO!
Cleeter - It took you less than a year to make this place absolutely LEGENDARY! The list of names now associated with this location is insane! I'm going to shake your hand one day to thank you for helping make my life bearable over the last year. Your success is absolutely well deserved! Thanks Cleetus, Jackstand Jimmy, Coop, the Fasterproms crew, FF staff and all the people who came together to make Freedom Factory a reality for us all!

Dude! Lol! The only thing he didn't do is slap his knee and say "gaaaaaaa ah lee" and "yee haw" . Lol

Cleetus : "It started with a lot of burnouts to put the weeds down"
Reporter: Nods, *merica*
When you start running events or hosting races, you should take a minute and think about what you can offer in terms of kids competitions, for instance karting events or junior dragsters... hell, even junior burnout contests!!! Devide them into classes that are age appropriate for the event, and put safety first, obviously, but then let them run wild and do what they do!!! It would be great if you could use your opportunity to instill healthy competition, good sportsmanship, and good ol American hard work into the up and coming generation of racers and enthusiasts.
Problem my dude is insurance a death is what lead to the slow decline of this track in the first place
The Rules Are Different being a kid myself I would love to see this
@@nategray3762 dunno man seems way too risky for a new track
^^^^^^^^^^^ this omg yes let them youngster play too
The potential for lousy parents suing Cleesus makes it unlikely
Unreal that its only been 1.5 years. Freedom factory content has brought the channel into a new stage. To hear Garrett talk about the plans, short and long term, and now to think about how most have been carried out, is insane. The freedom factory is just as important to the channel as leroy himself. Congrats Garrett.
This brings me so much joy man you dont even know
Florida man buys entire racetrack just to do burnouts.
The part where the golf cart goes by doing a wheelie had me laughing my ass off
LOVED IT! Only thing better would be taking the reporter for a ride along!! I’m sure you are already working that angle for the NEXT TV spot! You are my marketing HERO!
Best. Interview. Ever.
Congratulations on the exposure! That was awesome!
“My cousin Gary Winthorpe” LOL
Nassty Ss No shit
And JoogSquad lmao
Lmao his cousin *”Gary Winthrop”* 🤣🤣
That was a shout-out to Danny Duncan, another UA-camr who used that name when he was on the news multiple times
hahaha I caught that shit too😂😂😂
Winthorpe*
God this is such an underrated video lmao. Ol cleetus letting it eat in the news!
How did I miss this gem🤣 effing genius! The confusion in the reporter’s face🤣”do it for dale!”🤣
The shot of the dogs running mixed in with all the vehicles is the most epic thing ever! 🇺🇸🏁🇺🇸
I agree
I have watched it two times and cannot find the dogs you speak of?
Doozer Chuck 3:32 There is a longer clip of them in the video on Cleetus’s main channel.
I have a 1 year old cream colored Golden Retriever (Laci), she would love to out there running with Jeremy's Goldens and Holley.
It is officially the best shot ever😂🤙🏽👍🏽👍🏽
That was the single greatest news interview I’ve ever laid eyes on...... “Do it for Dale”!!! 😆🤘🏻
Cleeter - It took you less than a year to make this place absolutely LEGENDARY! The list of names now associated with this location is insane! I'm going to shake your hand one day to thank you for helping make my life bearable over the last year. Your success is absolutely well deserved! Thanks Cleetus, Jackstand Jimmy, Coop, the Fasterproms crew, FF staff and all the people who came together to make Freedom Factory a reality for us all!
Duuuddde I cannot wait Cleetus ! I’m heading over when you open that’s so awesome!
At the end he was like Ricky Bobby not knowing what to do with his hands..
I read this as soon as that started playing
THIUGHT THE SAME HHAHA
My thought exactly 😂
Garrett is still only 24..... it’s so amazing what he has created at such a young age and how skilled he is as a driver! Props to you man
Shhhh! Don't say Garrett! 😂
ronnyinwaxhaw Cleetus**** oops ;)
He's only 24? Damn that makes me feel old.
@@Yophillips3272 yep 24
Wait he’s gonna only 24 ? Damn I wish I was this successful at the same age. Man I didn’t realise he was that young.
So awesome and I’m so happy for you guys!!!! Keep up the good work
This is by far the most epic Do It For Dale thing ever. Hell ya Brother
Raise hell, praise Dale 🤘
