Cleetus McFarland thanks for the awesome vids
I have simply safe
Just your stuff man!
Mr beast at the freedom 500? Lets do it.
🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸🦅
This needs a giant "FF" painted in the middle of it.
paired with some bald eagles
Made by a good burnout ;)
Gonna need to make that "FFS" with this coronavirus bs
That’d get destroyed every burnout event but it’d be cool like before every C&C event
At least make a stencil with "FF"that can redo after burnouts.
The whole USA: Under quarantine/hoarding toilet paper
Florida man: pouring concrete at my racetrack at 3am.
tkidd61245 i dont see the danger?
The whole usa? Speak for yourself..
@@classicjoe8014 Should be*
When the comments make you laugh, then make you sad. It's a joke y'all, not a shlong.... don't take it so deep.
Thats some america right there
Cleetus McFarland is revolutionary. This man went out and BOUGHT DeSoto race way, and immediately began work and planning on it. He has most likely the largest burnout/skid pad In the entire country, and is creating a place for racing like no other. This man will be the saviour of racing in America. We love you Cleet, this is incredible
SorensenGaming NASCAR should put him as COO. He could make it epic with new events added.
@@windowsvistasuxalot Seriously, that'd be amazing! (Nice name, btw 😂)
@@windowsvistasuxalot NASCAR would just fuck it up! keep it FREEDOM!
I didn’t realise how big the oval was until the burnout pad was being concreted. Amazing work.
Look people that's more than $100,000 in concrete. I hope everyone gets the Pay per view. Cleet is doing all this to entertain us!
Wished i could get the ppv..... Looks like it would be EPIC!!!!
I’m definitely committed to bringing y’all the best content possible if this doesn’t prove that idk what will!
@@CleetusM hi
@@davidduncan9011 u can watch it from your phone
That's why I didn't hesitate to break Cleetus off $10! He works hard for our entertainment! May look like fun but they're long days for sure!
This is the smartest way I've seen someone spend UA-cam money.
I'm genuinely proud of our boy for not running out, buying a lambo & becoming a complete douche.
No diss to the hard working down to earth lambo owners...you know what i mean.
As someone that has worked in the corporate world where everything seems to be built the cheapest way possible to get up and running, it is refreshing to see someone do it right from the beginning.
Damn these guys have some serious money...
@@thelowlyengineer3325 I genuinely thank the 316 boys for pushing Cleetus not to cheap out on many aspects of this project.
Hell yeah brother! It's definitely refreshing to see a UA-camr investing in their future
6:53 ''first wheelie we had at the freedom factory''
Golf cart: am i a joke to you?
55 ton pump truck.....yes you are!!!!
Did they wheelie the golf cart there? I know they did at the drag strip.
@@Steve_I they did wheelie a golf cart back in the video when they first made it official that they bought the track. Had most all of the big project cars there. And a few guests as well. Gitten Jr, Finnegan, etc came to play for a bit.
Cleetus - "...and we came in a HAIR under budget..."
...dude's sitting there like "...bruh, do you understand how damn hard it is to end up 10% under budget on ANYTHING?!"
10% is legit doing damn good(assuming the original estimate was reasonably accurate anyway)!
It is great that the guys came with their heavy equipment and gave their hours for free so this could be done with better materials than planned
True, 10% on a job like that is easily 10 grand or more.
It is rare you find contractors that can come in under budget. Lots of them love to quote the job low so they get the job knowing the real thing will cost more.
I can’t imagine the cost of the whole job
@@PissShiversss bruh 10 grand? more like 150+ lol
CLEETUS SIR, YOU SHOULD GET THAT " SAVAGE PUMP TRUCK DRIVER " IN YOUR 500 RACE. HELL IF HE DRIVE A 110,000 LB TRUCK LIKE THAT IMAGINE WHAT HE CAN DO IN A CROWN VIC. ?
that's actually a brilliant idea man!!
I second this, or at least get him behind the wheel or the passenger seat of Neighbor or another of the crazy cars, something he couldn't mess up too bad.
I dont know how he even managed with those giant balls in the way...tell that dude had mad love for the track & racing.
The camera doesn't do that slope justice either...you know it's gotta be way crazier than it looks.
Make this happen
Yes please
I love Cleetus’s love, interest and appreciation for other people’s jobs.
Everything is "fun" until it becomes work!
He tried out nearly every machine out there lol.
Buckwheat freelance version of Mike Rowe.
@@chadstalnaker960 😂😂😂😂😂
Red Rolo he literally said any machine that enters the freedom factory he gets to drive.
Epic does not begin to explain the Freedom that we are witnessing here!! Hope we can come down and visit this Fall
Legit the best UA-cam channel by far. Does his own work, races his own vehicles, builds his own track, helps with everything weather it’s a small hand or big hand, helps his buddy’s out who help him as well, actually listens to his fans, grew a mullet, drinks dew & loves dale and America...now that’s a channel folks
I hope you gave every one of those workers a Free Year Pass to the races. Imagine the pride they will have in saying "I helped build that"! They worked hard!
TEAMERICA he’s not running races

@@boxr_4214 the freedom 500 won't have live spectators because of covid 19 regulations and all that

He bought a race track....to NOT run races??? Don't be dumb
@@onlymeandmw3 What's that big oval thingy around the Burnout Pad? Oh, a banked parking lot! My Bad!
Probably one of the single largest investments into a small oval track in America in 50 years. This is a very good thing.
I'm in the UK but literally buzzing for these guys! We're seeing tracks close all to frequently over here so to see them bringing one back to life is great!
U gotta wonder how much a project like that costs
@@MikeJones-yf1oi if you've gotta ask, you cant afford it 🤣
@@MikeJones-yf1oi concrete alone is somewhere in the 100,000 dollar range that's just the concrete not the labor and all the prep work.
@@jeffreybuerk9426 id take the over on that
100% the first truck driver was the boss and the second was just an employee!!
Not necessarily, I understand were you coming from but it's not that simple. Sometimes experience and knowledge of the machine is what allows a seemingly more aggressive approach, I own my own rig and I push it far harder now then I did years ago before I actually understood the design and build of it. I used to worry about blowing up the engine by running higher rpms and such, but in reality running lower RPMs with the higher egts is actually far more likely to do it harm it. And at the price of $30k+ for a rebuild I'd rather burn a bit of extra fuel at a higher RPM then risk melting a piston at lower RPM.
Yeah I was just commenting that for the meme'ness of it. As a matter of fact, my boss drives our trucks harder than I do which would be the reverse of what I even wrote lol.
Those are amazing machines and I never thought after watching an entire video of them pouring concrete, I'd actually want to watch more.
Other way round 😁 old timer knows how to send it... safely.
100% bosses drive the gear the hardest
The newspaper will read” Florida Man Operates Everting”.
Never thought there would be a day where watching concrete getting poured was a top priority and I loved every minute and they had some cool high tech gear I didn’t even know they laser levelled and screeded concrete
A job that size in the allotted time? Yeah-they needed the fancy stuff for sure. Pretty cool stuff.
Yes you have to make sure concrete is level usually it’s called grade and screeded or “floated” whatever you wanna call it watching this made me cringe a little bit especially since they didn’t put rebar in the mesh concrete which is essentially fiberglass it’s not good to have the concrete adhere to nothing it’s weaker if they wanted that to last long they would have put rebar in and not cheaped out
@@freedomfanatic3520 wrong, the Coliseum is still standing because there is no metal in it to rust and expand and tear apart the crete...
Zach Walker I heard they could get away with not using rebar because they’re in the south and don’t have to deal with the weather up north. How true is this?
Kenneth Sev I imagine that's true. It's below freezing down there what, once every couple years? And I don't think they ever have radical 50-degree swings over like 12 hours like we do all the time here in WV. What it really should've been if they wanted to avoid rebar is probably roll-compressed concrete, but that's a LOT more expensive because they have to build a batch plant onsite to make the concrete, plus it requires a bunch more specialized equipment and so on. That pad wouldn't last a year where I live and work, but here's hoping it will down there.
So how did you find your contractor
Florida man: I almost totalled his Lamborghini.
This is the way.
Pretty sure that red Huracan was wrecked the other day at the next door drag strip.
@@Globbs was it not at the beginning of the asphalt video?
I have spoken.
@@Globbs yes it was
I used to be a Concrete Pump operator, this Hard ass job was my drifting car/competition income for a lot of years. Its not hard work before you add 200meters of hoses filled with concrete. And you need to drag it around all day long, longest “day” at work was 36 hours😅 So cool to watch you Factory come together... I wish I could bring my drift car one day, to try drifting the banks for the first time..
Pump operator is the easy part
Not when you are dragging 3" hoses in 12 hours, I used to operate a concrete pump without the boom, only hoses on this machine.
As a cement Masons laborer make sure that hose dont kink
turd furguson That could happen, specially if the worker’s where trainees. It’s like the biggest shotgun😂
@@Stigman11 I don't envy you one bit, brother. I only had a couple of line only jobs and it sucked... my pump had 4" line. 140m Z putzmeister
Cleetus: We gonna let the workers do their job cause they know what they are doing.
Also Cleetus: Hey can I try that
I love how he has to use every piece of machinery, like he actively wants to learn more and more about all the equipment that they are using. I swear half the other car channels wouldn't do this
CR4CK I love it too! It also shows how much he cares about, not only his channel, but about the track. Him being the owner is for sure the best thing that has happened to the complex. Owners that care and are hands on are way better than the owners who just want it for the money grab! Shoutout to Cleetus!
Yes! I love how he loves all machinery, doesn’t matter what it is.
That's a promise he made at the beginning; control every large or cool piece of equipment that gets on his property.
And I envy him for it.
Too true. Cleetus just loves machines. If it runs, Cleetus has gotta drive it lol.
If it comes on the track,Cleetus gets to have a hand at it. Haha
I think the 3:16 speed boys need a permanent sign on property for their huge help!
They low key part owners now probably.
@@clayboist wouldn't surprise me tbh.
Lifetime season pass free roll whatever you wanna call it....stepped up & came thru HUGE 4 sure.
Hell no
I did concrete work for almost 4 summers. It was the hardest I've ever worked in my life. These boys got it easy with those badass machines. All I can say is God Bless Mexicans, there where a few dudes that where over 55 years old working harder than most. Lunch? You mean 3 24oz budlights and a truck stop burrito. A bunch of them got their citizenship too even after being here most their lives. God bless
I respect to Mexicans like that working hard people before I move out the old apartment the guys finish one of the apartment in a month they are the best I’m Vietnamese but my dad is true hard working mechanic he’s only fastest guy in the shop others take a day or two for simple mechanical problem he taught me a lot of stuff about cars that I would never be interested
Nice shades 😉
what?? cole the cornstar on cleetus's channel? collab time.
When he started talking about doing this I thought it was gonna be over the span of a few months but nope, goes full savage and grinds it out in a couple weeks
cameron muckey one week actually
Had to get it ready for the freedom 500
Week*
2:02 just a word of advice from an expert electrician...
You should stand clear to the side of ANY breaker
On ANY panel, when racking breakers or disconnects...
I've seen a breaker explode with a NASTY arc-flash when being energized...
The 100a breaker was BRAND NEW out of the box...!!
Can never be too safe when dealing with electricity... Keep up the good work and killer content brother...🔥💪💪👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
🤘🤘
Good advice, but I guess the question is whether a breaker that's been used hundreds/thousands of times without issue is more likely to fail, than a brand new one wired into a brand new untested circuit, with a potential defect?
@Epic damn right don't trust anything you can't see coming
Was once told by a Sparky, Aussie slang term for an electrician, that there is no such thing as electricity, there is only smoke in those wires.
Case in point, stick your finger in a power socket and it is not electricity that comes out of your ears.
@@petert3355 🤣
Arc Flash is NO JOKE! Blinded my father in law in one eye
Let’s hope Ol’ Cleeter Mcsceeter started a new trend, with a True Rebuild of the old race tracks left to waste away.
Yes I know my stepfather owned a small dirt track in the late 70 's it was targeted by realistate people who were looking for a easy target the bull shit that thay came up with was unlimited turned it into a shity trailer park with trailers ten feet apart lot of drugs and other problems so realters can kiss my ass and rot in hell

Just for curiosity, do you know how much cost this asphalt/concrete work? 40.000-50.000 dollars i guess?
Hell Yeah Brother....🤙🤟🤘
Big 1 way way way more
Big 1 do you mean 40 to 50 thousand
Hey Cleets, just wanna say I admire that you are giving these men work during a time when many people are losing jobs and getting paid less. These men are blessed to be working right now and huge thumbs-up to you and your friends brother
This is awesome. I have been very critical of the channel especially of James’ bs talk. But this here is why I got hooked. You are so creative and what you are building is something that will be passed down in car cultures for decades to come.
Shout out to all those hard working men that put in all that work so this can happen during this pandemic !
Typically Cleetus’ videos are shot at least a week, typically more like 2 weeks+ in advance. I’d say this was all done and ready for the freedom 500 weeks ago, well before the shit show going on now.

I don’t doubt it. It’s no different then the fire department. A big truck will fit in a tight place
"Never lift"
Matt R there actually bigger and you will see these thinks next and into places a fire truck never goes threw.
I can honestly say that this has been my favorite video series from you. You can definitely hear the passion in your voice and the genuine excitement when you talk about the Freedom
Factory! Keep it up brother!!!
Was hoping Cleetus was gonna write his initials or write “Freedom Factory” in the concrete with the date it was poured or something.
Yeah dude same
How do you know he didn't? I would, you would, he did write something!
Im sure he did, but thats for him to know ;)
Thats some big pp energy thinking.

Major props to 3:16 speed! Love what y'all stand for love Cleetus I'm a lifetime subscriber for sure but seriously cant give high enough praise for thier work God bless y'all and God bless the U.S.A!!! MERICA!
I've watched countless Cleetus videos over the years, but the FF is what got me to subscribe. This is new, unseen content. And I thoroughly enjoy it. The progress is amazing. I hope one day to see this track in person.
Lol that security ad was also like an under the radar threat to anyone who planned on breaking in.
Actually he kinda told them to make sure to shut down the power and cut the internet, just sayin'
@@AnArChRiStxseditio battery backup just ruined your day
Lbomk yep haha
Except that system is one of the least secure on the market . $2 WiFi emiter will compromise it.
Simply safe is trash tho. If he actually had a real system I hope it isn’t simply safe.
While everyone is locked inside of their homes doing useless things, Cleetus is locked inside of his racetrack pouring a giant burnout pad.....
I wouldn't call it useless, we are avoiding the spread of a deadly virus. Therefore we(stuck at home) are helping save lives.
I mean, I've got elders to care for. I can't risk them getting da 'rona. I went so far as to take a leave from my main job. I can't do anything but take it seriously.
@Thomas Foley they should give me a medal for it, cause i work at amazon risking my ass for your packages, so yea :)
Cleetus having people travelling from all over the country for a get together during a pandemic. Him and all involved are risking the lives of others for a silly race that can easily be postponed. Greed and selfishness on his part. I hope it gets shut down by local authorities. Not cool.
Steve Letson how much toilet paper did you buy?
Awesome how quickly you and everyone whom helped are getting the Freedom Factory looking beautiful and functional. God bless and stay safe brother!
I love how Cletus is getting so into this, and showing us how much actually goes into making a good place for us to actually enjoy Vehicles. Often times we just pull up to an empty parking lot lay down some tire marks on some asphalt but we don't even really think about the ground that were enjoying.
On another note I have to crack a giggle at watching all the dudes take a break about halfway through the video for some reason that shit was funny cuz I think car enthusiasts and construction workers have something in common when you're working out in the sun whether you're cranking on a car or building something or doing any sort of manual labor really we all can appreciate sitting down wherever we can fit our asses and shoving something down their stomach
Cleetus is spending heavy money just to keep us entertained. The love he has for this is out this world. Thanks Garrett
Yet people are stilling whining about the PPV for the freedom500, even tho it will be free at a later date...

@@drulessman2892 Dude.
"According to the latest industry data, average concrete prices are around $113 per cubic yard for ready mix delivery." (out of concretenetwork.com)
And according to wikipedia, "The most common truck capacity is 8 cubic yards" that makes 904$ per truck.
He said there were a hundred trucks coming, that makes 90k$. (Had to do the math, even tho I feel like it makes me come out as an asshole, if I didn't do the math you would've called me a dumbass after I told you you were way off)
You're not even close. All of that is calculated with normal client prices, just like if you and me paid for concrete, but contractors always get better price, and you can imagine how much of a discount you probably get when ordering a hundred trucks worth of concrete.
I'm just now catching up on all of this. Loving it! Personally, I can't fathom the cost of a project like this (just the skid pad), but I'm thankful guys like him exist. These videos have been keeping me going, literally daily. Well done my friend.
Thank you Cleetus, for reigniting the passion inside of me in this dark and boring part of my life. Your videos have definitively impacted some lives in ways you could never imagine.
I'm currently studying Civil Engineering and this video inspired me so much, as it was a confirmation that I'm studying to do something I love and actually gave me a lot of cool ideas as to what I could do in the future!
This is my 3rd week of quarantine, and my motivation to watch online classes was almost gone, due to the news that my country has extended its State of Emergency for 2 more weeks.
By the way, I would like to congratulate 3 16 guys, they did an absolute mint job! The quality and speed on their part were top-notch and yet being 10% under budget is mindblowing! Awesome job!
Every car guy on UA-cam bow down to this guy! What he and his mates have done is nothing short of incredible, long live Desoto Speedway aka "Freedom Factory"!!
I just watched concrete being poured for 24 minutes and I loved every second of it lol
I do it for a job, its not nearly as fun in person lol
I know right
geoff donovan I’ve done it a few times, used to work for an asphalt company that occasionally did concrete and I 100% agree with that statement lol.
@@geoff13man same here lol, I drive a mixer truck
Proud to say my job is a concrete fitter and making projects like this become reality for people like cleetus love my job laying concrete
whats a concrete fitter?? lol
Delivered concrete in Arizona for 7 years, did many huge pours like that which I did 10 trips in a night to big 3000 yard warehouse floors, had to quit cause my night vision was going bad. Brings back good and bad memories......
Lol he wasn’t kidding when he said he was going to drive each piece of equipment on the job.
I ran the same pump 61 meter . I would have let cletus run it!
You ABSOLUTELY need to paint "FREEDOM FACTORY" right in the middle of the burnout pad. Huge letters too.
Painting it with the biggest toast burnout
Paint makes it slick and would limit usable space
I was disappointed when he didnt scratch a lil "freedom factory 2020" when he tested it with his finger
Just so everyone knows I will be doing a live stream during the event to give some commentary about the race as it unfolds for all the people that can't watch it live if you guys want this please like this comment 🙏
It will get covered up by rubber pretty quickly lol
Hearing your constant joy and excitement watching this incredible project come together makes watching concrete set for 15 minutes totally worth it. So awesome how far you all have come and what you have achieved! Can't wait to see how the Freedom Factory journey turns out!
Looks GREAT! Hope you get the circle track fixed up and get some "roundy round" racing going again. The place is looking great, thank you for saving a part of local racing history.
"Florida man hoards all concrete trucks in the county"
I swear i was thinking that as well ..LMAO🤣
Really not trying to be "that guy" but that is literally NOTHING in the world of concrete when it comes to construction business. Being a commercial electrician I have seen buildings 5 times that size with 30 floors with that amount of crate. But yes that is a decent amount for the project and glad to see cleetus doing it right

I think I’ve checked UA-cam 100 times today hoping for more footage of the finished product! This is an awesome video!
After it's all finished compile all the long range time lapse's and watch it all transform in one video, it'd be awesome to watch!

More then that dude!!
@@BIGNICKDJ 7 figures easy.
Probably right around $110k in concrete alone..
Running the numbers, the concrete alone costs around $250,000, not including the labor and pour costs. Asphalt job was another $50-100k job, although he got a really good cut on that with the labor being free.
Cleetus didnt buy that concrete pad its was paid by 316 boys
Geter it done!!!!! I could have watch the whole poor from start to finsh. Can't wait for the crown vic race.Keeping the dream alive we lost so many tacks wish I could bring back Englishtown drag strip tack still there but the spirit is gone. Good luck with it all keep video comeing.✌
That is a heck of a lot of concrete... And looking so god damn good 👌 Shoutout to all the construction guys for being so cool with Cleeter messing with all their equipment 🤣

I will gladly watch every ad on cleets videos as long as it supports him and the freedom factory. He is opening a mekka for the automotive world. I will make it down there from N.Y. for the first one.
We love ya cleet
UPDATE: You might have to wait on that drive from up north. I-95 @ FL/GA line has checkpoints for COVID. 4-6 hour delays, and not everybody is getting in. 14 day quarantine if you fly
Truth! Me too!
The Luns no, he’s got sponsorships and other deals and connections to help him throughout it
I really like that Cleetus puts everything he has into his content. Like lets take Logan Paul as an example. Logan is just trying to make money to make himself look good. Cleetus makes enough money to step up in the content, and with every step he has a better return. It started with getting Leroy, then Turnochargine Leroy, then getting the shop, then getting Ruby and Neighbor and the other cars, and now he has a race track. What a wild ride!
did you forgot that before leroy was turbo'd it was super charged
Don't forget white buffalo, monica, the stacker...
He works hard and he is VERY smart about what he does with his money.
His old ram with a pro charger
Properly running a business.. investing in assets and not liabilities.
Don’t forget the duck call Ram lol
I'm totally gobsmacked to see what you & the crew have accomplished, since I started watching this channel!
I worked at Mack Trucks on the assembly line in Macungie PA where every single Mack Truck is made and whenever we'd get a huge long "MR" taking up two of the spaces on the assembly line with multiple axles like in those concrete pumper trucks, I'd always wonder what the final truck with it's body attached to the frame would look like! Now I know lol. Thank you man I love watching every new video, I've been watching every one! I had a Chevy rollback (ramp) truck like yours back in my auto repair days too lol. I need to come visit the track some day, I feel like I've been there right with you guys through it all. Awesome broooother!
Am I the only one who laughed at the time lapsed lunch breaks?
That had to be a dream job site for the drivers. Easy in & out, staging area, great lighting and they got to drive their trucks on a real race track!
Hard working guys who barley took any breaks, hell yeah
I feel we are truly witnessing history with this. I for some reason think this is gonna be a spot if historical value after what we will see here.
I feel the same. This is a place I hope people will be taking their families for many generations. It's obvious by the views that people are really vibing with this place and I'm damn proud of Cleetus for all of it.
Forshadows terrible freedom five hundred wreck
Agreed
@@captainstabbin9338 To see burnouts? I don't get it.
without a doubt!! i cant wait, cleetus lives right down the road from me! and im stoked that the track is too!
941 baby!
Bradenton is about to be litty!!
we're all stoked for the future! us bradenton boys have been waiting for something like this our whole lives!! play time is in order!!!!! yeeyee
This was a great video, the time lapse short were awesome. I especially enjoyed the lunch break time lapse 😁. nice work with the pump truck. The pad looks awesome
That guy was looking pretty worried when he saw Cleetus with the remote box! 🤣 Garrett I am not sure how you are financing all of this but thank you! I hope to get to come to one of your events in the future. We need this good content at this crazy time in our lives. God bless and stay healthy!
All I’m saying is a giant freedom factory logo in the middle would be a little badass🤷🏼♂️
Caleb Hicks you got money to pay for the logo he aint livin with mommy and daddy like you, money dont grow off trees what makes you think hes gonna spend money to put a logo in the middle when its get get destroyed by burnouts
xLittleBoy- bro relax it was just a suggestion You must fun at parties 💀
On a checkered background using the expansion joints! Hell yeah!!
The Governor of Florida should thank you for what you are doing mate. You have brought jobs to your state and will be a major attraction for tourists, when people are allowed to travel again. Well done to you and your crew.
50 uk tonnes pump truck. Impressive rig, all that concrete equipment is impressive.
Nice pad Cleetus. Awesome stuff. Keep spending your spare cash bro & make that place Amazing. BUILD IT & THEY WILL COME !!!
You guys are legends , makes me want to come down from the cold north to come check out one of your events ! The freedom factory looks sick can’t wait
Christ, I couldn't appreciate how big the pad was gonna be until it was actually poured. That's unreal!
Right?
Epic
A UA-camr smart enough to secure his future. Well done my friend
This guy made it.
I think he must be 1 from 1000 great job!!! Tip my hat....much respect
I'm all for everything here Cleetus is doing, but making a wild investment in an abandoned race track is hardly what I would consider 'securing one's future'. I hope it all works out and this is Daytona Jr. but boy oh boy if things go wrong they can go really wrong.
@@ianobrien3248 I agree, it's certainly not without it's risks, but I don't think any previous owner of this track had the platform or reach that Cleetus already does, so he's got that going for him.
@@W1ldTangent remember it's not only an investment in the track itself but in the content possibilities for the channel so killing two birds with one stone makes the cost somewhat more bearable I suppose. Also at the very least it's a nice chunk of land with utilities in place so also not too bad.
Cleet pissing the concrete guys off makin' them work harder and and splattering them with mud LMAO -
If you work with or around a concrete pump, you're gonna get splattered...
Really impressive and very cool. What a massive pour! Freedom Factory!
No homo: there is something about your content that is wholesome and honest. Something about it makes me feel like I could genuinely be your best friend( even though we've never actually met) although I can't support you financially, I will "like" and "subscribe" to anything you put out. Awesome work, awesome content, and awesome progress. Nothing but positive vibes from Ocala FL
I have to agree Cleetus just comes across as so likeable and genuine. I have only recently been watching his content for the last 2-3 months and its been awesome. I loved it when he came to Australia and experienced my home country during the Summernats. Hell yeah brother, we have adopted him as one of our own.
Yep, he comes off as the type of guy that anybody might be friends with.
out here in palatka to
Fellas, is it gay to enjoy wholesome racecar content?
If u want u can support cleetus and the freedom factory by hitting that join word that is blue on your screen and go all in
Concrete company probably skipped a heartbeat when they heard how much concrete and trucks they'd need.. good shit man! Keeping folks working during this crisis!
Shit 1000 yards is nothing to a concrete company, we stuffed our trucks with almost 13 yards on a 12 yard truck, so much she'll puke out the back on a rough take off.
This video literally brought a tear to my eye. So awesome
