You have to crawl before you walk and I believe you are doing a good job of that. No matter what happens in the future I believe you will be a better driver when it is all done. We are all proud of you and Carly.
It’s not easy and you’re doing great. you’re racing with the best driver.You’re sitting in the seat because you belong there. i’m sure you dreamed of this now you’re doing it. enjoy it live it learn it. Racing is like a relationship you got your ups and downs deal with it learn from it. don’t be so hard on yourself. Enjoy it man. You’re doing really good.💯🔥
First off keep your chin up, and don't lose confidence. You have done a great job. Shark racing saw the talent and gave you a shot knowing you might not be fighting for wins but would putting in solid drives and not tearing up cars. It has been a lot of fun watching make the most of this opportunity. Relax and drive like you know how. It's cool seeing Carly being a full.time team member too!
Bobby Allen's team won the million this year hopefully he keeps tanner on the team for next year even if thats means a third car. That would be amazing and insane.
Tanner you are racing against the best sprint car teams with the best sprint car drivers in the world. You’ve already proven you can ran up front with them so shake off the frustration and reset mentally. Bobby obviously believes in your abilities, and we your fans also believe. Mind set is every bit as important as the car set up so be in the moment and hammer down Bud.
One of the hardest parts about Eldora is finding it. I remember seeing other car haulers wandering around the farm roads. You had a great learning experience running a really slick track with tons of banking. My home track had similar banking but was only a 1/4 mile (Springfield, IL). Ran the car once at Eldora and didn't make the A main (first 4 Crown race). It was a televised show and the fuel supplier was giving away free fuel. Filled up every container we had!
Awesome video Tanner. I will probably be at Eldora next year for the Kings royal and I hope to see you then. Keep in mind most of us who ever race never even make it to the highest levels. Your racing against the best in the entire world. Just running mid pack puts you ahead of 99% of racers. It’s your first season at this level and if I were a coach or owner or whatever, I’d feel good about how you’re doing. Keep it up man.
fun watching your journey, so close there at the end! Being from Ohio and watching lots of races at the E. You learn very quickly and it's awesome to see getting this experience man!
You are saying and doing the right things. It is tough to race hard and to fit in with the seasoned veterans. You don't want to pass off the owners and drivers. We get what you are doing. You are learning Grasshopper.
Nice job! 👍 you just put it together in a nutshell what we've all heard other drivers talk about. Gave us spectators a sort of inside view about the highs and lows. Keep pushing!
I remember going there as a kid. Ol' Earl Baltes would be out there grooming the track IMMEDIATELY after races and at turns 3 & 4 there was just a grassy terraced hill side where people would set up lawn chairs. Such a awesome track and many great memories...
You are an amazing young man used to follow Brent Kaeding all over when baylands was still around in the bay area due to health issues can't do it anymore but I love watching your videos wish I could follow you around keep up the great work
Hard to calculate the value of the experience both Tanner and Carly are getting with this opportunity with Scruffy and the team. Ask Scruffy about the top tool box he used to have back in the day. I have a picture of it somewhere. What that guy got out of his car with what he had is legendary. Tanner and Carly couldn't be at a better place at this stage.
Tanner, You wouldn't be there at the Big E, racing against the best of the best if you weren't also one of The Best, and it looks like Carly is making her presence known as well. God Bless the both of you and stay safe and keep doing what you're doing.🤩
The way that I see that night in Eldora was ya Its kinda crappy that one engine went away good for you Tanner by shutting it down to save as much of it as you can. So that C main was a good race to break in that new engine and get you a little bit more experience at Eldora. I heard and saw good smooth driving and throttle controll in that whoe C main. I also liked that when the leaders caught up to you that you were able to keep pace with them. So hopefully that will mean that, that engine will be a good strong engine for you guys in the weeks to come. Thank you Tanner for sharing this video with us. Please pass on a Hi to your mom and sister for me. Have a good one. Have fun take care
Question, has Bobby Allen hired Carly yet? Your sister is right in the middle of everything doing a great job. Good first night for you at Eldora Speedway. Not an easy place to jump in and run up front on your first night. I know its not where you wanted to be, but the car looked good in the C main. With another lap I think you would have transferred to the B Main. More laps. Keep you head up and stay positive. The WOO series is a grind, you are up against the best in the business.
Hey Tanner, crew guys and Scruffy not want to be on camera? Your travel video was cool too, fun to watch your whole racing journey, not just the racing part
Well ALRIGHTY THEN. Good experience, not the dream, a little nightmare. But we understand you cannot light the world on fire yet. Great mind, sportsman, real deal, with a hammer or not, you are a terrific driver and young man. Keep living the dream, focus and really look for you opportunities to shine. Bobby is a lucky guy,smart owner, utilize his knowledge or confidants, you are respected, talk to other drivers for what you need to know. Love seeing Carly wrenching on WOO car. But we know she wants to drive too. Great experience for her and Mom. Love Rocking and Racing, keep it WFO. Let's go, Tanner
Maybe you're right, "It's time to step back".... Maybe 2-1/2 years ago when a fresh young driver showed up to a dirt track that he'd never seen before fresh off of his 1st 360 A-main victory. I'm talking about the incredible run you had at Sweetwater Speedway in Wyoming. Most tracks you are seeing right now are just like that instance. Never been there but you have as much chance for success as the next racer...... Just sayin...
Tanner you said a couple races ago you had to be more aggressive . almost out of control i think you said. If you run how you did in that C Main at the Big E . You had me on the edge of my seat. i get it your in someone elses stuff but to be good in an outlaw you have got to be aggressive. Great job as always.
All the time you're racing on the west coast, never thought you'd come across country to ELDORA. TWO HOUR'S from my house and I STILL DIDN'T GET TO SEE YOU. THAT SUCKS ,oh well guess that was my fault. Anyway good luck with the new team.
Not enough gear is my guess. Cooked the motor on revs in the Heat. Then couldn't pass on the outside in C when clearly that ditch was sticky and deep. Change the gear, a little less skinny pedal a bit, and VOILA' more mph
PS - If the 18T needs a pilot, my 21 yo daughter wants a tryout. GoKarts, Midgets, Drift is her resume, (9yrs total). She's in Tucson and CAN fly to drive.
Put a "' V " on the front of that plow. You'll still be pushing but the resistance should be less. Even the best need to create the, forget thinking outside of the box methodology at times, thus resorting to just ask......" Carly ".
Tanner dude, you are soo young. This is not something that you grew up following around with your dad or family. You guys are doing great for what little experience you had running with the Outlaws and well 410s in general. You are doing great man don't hang your head. Time is not something that you can teach. You just need some more time in this car and at some of these tracks and man are you going to be scary fast.
Look at it like life , everyday is a learning experience and just try to be better than you were yesterday!!! We all make mistakes those are learning experiences ! Remember we are children of GOD , we are Royalty so just be the BEST YOU CAN BE TODAY and learn all you can !!! GOD BLESS !!!
Too bad you can't stay after the show and rent the track just like it was when it ended and get in another 100 laps. Donny Shatz about 15 or so years ago was an absolute master at minimal stagger and rolling the car thru the corners and finding speed and grip when nobody else could. Study some videos. But mostly you need like 3 full seasons under your belt to just get started understanding the WOO system.
OK THEN. The regular Outlaws are doing what they get paid for, Qualifying in the top four, winning the heat or at least getting locked in. We all know if any driver starts in front their chances are good for a win. I see if a driver gives up a spot on the start they really should not be racing with the drivers they are racing with. Get the starts better, I like a clean driver but a driver has to race like the winners. Be cool but try not to be intimidated because you can do it!!
Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhbbbbbr What's the difference between a 360 and a 410 Wheels in the same place, wings in the same place, steering wheel in the same place. Engine in the Sam place. Luke, there is no try. Do, or do not. Tanner, You are intimidated. Accept your fears and overcome the. May I refer you to the quicksand seen in the movie The Replacements. Quit outthinking your obsticle. Drive the car in the winning line. 5 weeks now, you admit driver error. Follow the leader until he gets out of line. Capitalize on opponent driver error to move up. Stop committing driver error.
Keep your chin up kid, You are running with the best sprint car drivers and teams in the world and that 3rd place run earlier means you can do this. Your next video will show more of that. However this whole deal turns out your going to make it big in WOO. You've got to much talent not to.
Shark racing is top shelf in the hp and engine program and all around. It's more about experience and the team and tanner learning what works best for them as a whole. Tanner is doing great this year. I'm so proud of him.
You have to crawl before you walk and I believe you are doing a good job of that. No matter what happens in the future I believe you will be a better driver when it is all done. We are all proud of you and Carly.
I bet they were impressed with Carly knowing how to do the engine swap.
She’s amazing.
¹1 Q10 1tanner you need a woman
The c-main is one of the best races I’ve seen you run. Good job.
Carly certainly isn’t a wallflower. Great opportunity and experience for her.
Good laps with no damage. Great learning experience.
I never thought I’d see shark racing+the Holmes gang=eldora, two amazing families in our sport
It’s not easy and you’re doing great. you’re racing with the best driver.You’re sitting in the seat because you belong there. i’m sure you dreamed of this now you’re doing it. enjoy it live it learn it.

Welcome to the big “ E” ! Video games can’t compare to the real thing . All great pro athletes struggle from time to time . Your number 1 in Oregon 👍
Good first run there man, yer racing some big names that are more experienced, AWESOME !!
Plus you're there on 4 crown weekend. All those cars beating up on the race track!
Thank you so much for posting this I was at that race and was rooting for you I also bought a hat from you
Bobby Allen's team won the million this year hopefully he keeps tanner on the team for next year even if thats means a third car. That would be amazing and insane.

Out there running the best... and you are keeping up just fine...it will come together as you get more comfy... Thought you looked good out there...
Awesome video Tanner. I will probably be at Eldora next year for the Kings royal and I hope to see you then.

Tanner Holmes sure looked good up there on top.
Good experience for when u get to the GROVE it’s track like no other itself good luck
fun watching your journey, so close there at the end! Being from Ohio and watching lots of races at the E. You learn very quickly and it's awesome to see getting this experience man!
Can’t wait to see you in PA brother! Paper clip at Williams Grove and the Speed Palace at Port Royal!!! Hammer down!
You are saying and doing the right things.
It is tough to race hard and to fit in with the seasoned veterans. You don't want to pass off the owners and drivers. We get what you are doing. You are learning Grasshopper.
Nice job! 👍 you just put it together in a nutshell what we've all heard other drivers talk about. Gave us spectators a sort of inside view about the highs and lows. Keep pushing!
Hey Tanner I race the outlaw karts and need a new seat, is it alright if you can tell me what seat is in your Qrc 500 so I can get it.
I remember going there as a kid. Ol' Earl Baltes would be out there grooming the track IMMEDIATELY after races and at turns 3 & 4 there was just a grassy terraced hill side where people would set up lawn chairs. Such a awesome track and many great memories...
You are an amazing young man used to follow Brent Kaeding all over when baylands was still around in the bay area due to health issues can't do it anymore but I love watching your videos wish I could follow you around keep up the great work
By the time the A-msin comes up this track is almost always an ice rink. You did good Tanner. Hope to see you again in Wichita and Kansas City
Wow that C main was incredible. All you needed was one more lap and you would of had him. See you at Port Royal.✌
Great learning experience, keep smashing that pedal
Bucket list track for sure I'm sure you will do it again happy for you and the opportunity to race
Tanner you have checked off alot of different tracks this year which all = experience!!! Keep it up!!!
Let’s go tanner go get ‘em
Hard to calculate the value of the experience both Tanner and Carly are getting with this opportunity with Scruffy and the team. Ask Scruffy about the top tool box he used to have back in the day. I have a picture of it somewhere. What that guy got out of his car with what he had is legendary. Tanner and Carly couldn't be at a better place at this stage.
WOW so proud to be a Tanner /Carly Holmes fan , first year with the Outlaws ask Zearfoss how you are doing
Can't wait to meet you at William's Grove for the national open
Eldora is a monster by it self remember one step at a time
Nice always wanted to go anyway can wait ti see if your gonna be racing at Williams grove tmr.
It sucks that the engine gave up in the heat! Yes, you didn't make to the B-main, that was still impressive of a drive in the C-main!
Keep up the top side running. Port Royal often slicks off and the cushion gets pushed to the wall. And it’s the fastest way around the track
My home track when I raced
Tanner, You wouldn't be there at the Big E, racing against the best of the best if you weren't also one of The Best, and it looks like Carly is making her presence known as well. God Bless the both of you and stay safe and keep doing what you're doing.🤩
Cant wait to see you guys saturday and at the tusky.
The way that I see that night in Eldora was ya Its kinda crappy that one engine went away good for you Tanner by shutting it down to save as much of it as you can.

So hopefully that will mean that, that engine will be a good strong engine for you guys in the weeks to come. Thank you Tanner for sharing this video with us. Please pass on a Hi to your mom and sister for me. Have a good one. Have fun take care
Fastest track I have ever been too. These boys take there racing serious out there! 😂😮😂😮
Question, has Bobby Allen hired Carly yet? Your sister is right in the middle of everything doing a great job. Good first night for you at Eldora Speedway.

Love The big E!!! Good luck
Is the sparking off the front brake calipers a normal condition?
Yes it's normal
Qualifying is everything. Get that right and the rest will follow.
I can say I was at your first eldora race!
I was hoping you would have ran in the high limit race at Lerner ville
Keep working it will come it’s the Big E and your first time . How do you travel now that you are with shark racing? Does your family go with you.
Dang Tanner you was wheelin!
Stay STRONG Tanner..... It is gonna come your way
The big question is did you eat at the whistle stop in Ansonia?
Hey Tanner, crew guys and Scruffy not want to be on camera? Your travel video was cool too, fun to watch your whole racing journey, not just the racing part
Are you running Williams grove?
Were you running champion oil in the 1T?
Great job
Well ALRIGHTY THEN.
Good experience, not the dream, a little nightmare. But we understand you cannot light the world on fire yet. Great mind, sportsman, real deal, with a hammer or not, you are a terrific driver and young man. Keep living the dream, focus and really look for you opportunities to shine. Bobby is a lucky guy,smart owner, utilize his knowledge or confidants, you are respected, talk to other drivers for what you need to know.
Love seeing Carly wrenching on WOO car.
But we know she wants to drive too. Great experience for her and Mom.
Love Rocking and Racing, keep it WFO.
Let's go, Tanner

Damn nice run
Congratulations on 70k
When are you going to put the boss man on camera?
Tanner you said a couple races ago you had to be more aggressive . almost out of control i think you said. If you run how you did in that C Main at the Big E . You had me on the edge of my seat. i get it your in someone elses stuff but to be good in an outlaw you have got to be aggressive. Great job as always.
👍🏻. No worries
All the time you're racing on the west coast, never thought you'd come across country to ELDORA. TWO HOUR'S from my house and I STILL DIDN'T GET TO SEE YOU. THAT SUCKS ,oh well guess that was my fault. Anyway good luck with the new team.
Turn two comes up short and don't follow out too much on four
What kind of horsepower are you running at Big E?
Remember who you are buddy! Tanner the hammer
Hey your doing awesome! Jeff Gordon & Tony Stewart didn’t win all they’re Outlaw races. Just try your best. You’re a champion. You’ll see
@tannerholmes How does it feel running so many big tracks?
Is that tire service sponsor from Michigan?
Yes... Coldwater, Michigan. Route 12 Business loop
Good video.
Hallowed ground!!!
Not enough gear is my guess. Cooked the motor on revs in the Heat. Then couldn't pass on the outside in C when clearly that ditch was sticky and deep. Change the gear, a little less skinny pedal a bit, and VOILA'
more mph

You just need some more time in this car and at some of these tracks and man are you going to be scary fast.
All about track position. I think you would have done very well if you guys didn’t have motor trouble.
Your turn is coming. Good nights ahead.
Look at it like life , everyday is a learning experience and just try to be better than you were yesterday!!! We all make mistakes those are learning experiences ! Remember we are children of GOD , we are Royalty so just be the BEST YOU CAN BE TODAY and learn all you can !!! GOD BLESS !!!

That slick ant nothing compared to skyline speedway feature time the track is about 100 times as bad
15:14 "Literally racing on ice."
I don't think that word (literally) means what you think it means. You were speaking FIGURATIVELY not literally.
OK THEN. The regular Outlaws are doing what they get paid for, Qualifying in the top four, winning the heat or at least getting locked in. We all know if any driver starts in front their chances are good for a win. I see if a driver gives up a spot on the start they really should not be racing with the drivers they are racing with.

😮Wsp
DUDE YOUR RUNNING WITH THE BEST IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!! Give yourself a break and get after it off the track and LEARN from your laps.
car looks better black
Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhbbbbbr
What's the difference between a 360 and a 410
Wheels in the same place, wings in the same place, steering wheel in the same place. Engine in the Sam place.
Luke, there is no try. Do, or do not.
Tanner, You are intimidated. Accept your fears and overcome the. May I refer you to the quicksand seen in the movie The Replacements.
Quit outthinking your obsticle. Drive the car in the winning line.
5 weeks now, you admit driver error.
Follow the leader until he gets out of line. Capitalize on opponent driver error to move up. Stop committing driver error.
I know, I told you once I would never tell you how to drive again......
Get your head in the right place. I know your heart is in the right place.
I saw wiskers on your face. That's not an issue.
Search within.❤
Following Marky James at the Medford Raceway taught me a lot about driving.
Keep your chin up kid, You are running with the best sprint car drivers and teams in the world and that 3rd place run earlier means you can do this. Your next video will show more of that. However this whole deal turns out your going to make it big in WOO. You've got to much talent not to.
your car needs more speed. Its the car not you..
Lets go tanner. Win or lose im excited
Do all the cars have the same power and different setups or does this team not have the same power as the top 5
Shark racing is top shelf in the hp and engine program and all around. It's more about experience and the team and tanner learning what works best for them as a whole. Tanner is doing great this year. I'm so proud of him.
