That's day racing. It's exciting when cars come out of the dust cloud and take a person out. Been there, done that. I avoid day races after a rainstorm like the plague now.
Once again, Mandee You show us why you're the OG of this genre.!! That wasn't a vlog it was a documentary, Something we'd expect from Netflix, and I just can't wait to see more and more of them. Thank you for doing this!!!
Great video Mandee. Nice to see everyone . Great looking hat Mandee. Sorry Mike had a flat that's racing. Bad luck for Billy .Hope all of you have better luck next weekend at Port Royal .
Heartbreaker! Thought for sure Mike was gonna have a podium finish. BTW - Great video. Perfect mix of in car and behind the scenes! Good luck at Port Royal! 🏁🏁🏁🏁
I grew up watching Mods race, I love them! What trips me out about these videos is how "slow" they look from the camera in the car, but how fast they really are going when you see the external cam and watch live. Lots of wins to come this season for the 1 and the 35, good luck!!
Mike i know it sucks but you guys brought a terrific car to the first race nothing but good to come all hard work over the winter was apparent also i sold my whole operation over the winter still sitting on my custom built vintage outlaw trailer but someone will come along good luck at the port drag racer ray
Thank you for sharing. Like the idea of hot lap timing. Not the finishes that the guys should have gotten, but they were fast. Always a supporter and a long season ahead. Stay safe and happy motoring.
Hey Mandee Mahaney good to see you again and Mike Mahaney and Billy Pauch Jr and all the race teams i m watching video is amazing always i am mutual on time trial and draw and Mandee Mahaney you have an awesome looking winter hat on i like it !
Great video Mandee, sorry to see that frightened you hun💕It was a real bummer for both the guys but thank God Billy is OK cars are replaceable, lives are not🙏They both had great race ethics, this is going to be a great season for both🙏 Luv and hugs to you all ❤🍀🇨🇮
Stinks neither driver did great. Love the pink hat and it probably kept your head warm and somewhat under control. Glad to finally see some dirt racing with Mike & Billy Jr. Good luck at New Egypt on 3/30 🙏🙏 for no 🌨️🌨️🌨️
Go, Mikey Go! Watched on flo, and seen some good racing. S--t happens, but man it looked like somebody threw a bag of nails on the track. Will watch this week on flo. And see yas at NE.
Tough luck there Mike and crew, to bad the race didnt end with so many yellows and blown tires at the end. I thought for sure you were going to have a podiom 3rd place for sure. Dont know how you could see in 1 and 2 with the dust. Cant hang your heads guys everyone knew the 35 was giving a serious run. Maybe Port will be much better, will be watching on flow for sure. stay safe and good luck!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad that’s over with now to a real race track the speed palace and night races and right now warmer weather , great run Mike hate for Billy now so much work to do and short time , never liked Hosier tires loved it back in the day when we had the big three !
Time trials for sure. Sucks starting in the back with the doorknobs just because you drew bad. If you time trial in the back, so be it. In the video, I liked having the crew mic'd up and hearing the conversations. Nice mix of that and your progress reports. As for the wind, where is your dead cat?
I guess for Billy the old draw isn't so bad after all ? It stinks that he came home with a wrecked car. Nice run for Mike while it lasted, he must have been waiting for it after seeing the other leaders have trouble. Hopefully things go easier for both teams.
Trimming is better then drawing for position. I don't care for day racing either. Most tracks dry out too quick, and it eats the tires faster. The dust is a great factor for both fans and drivers .
I think it was a great race day. Billy’s day kinda stunk, not a lot of laps. But Mikes day was great, he only had 3 bad laps. The way he was running up front without going to Florida he gets 10 thumbs up 👍 Inside of the trailer looks great. And Mandy Mikes got all kinds of Milwaukee tool’s how’s about a heated coat for the sister in the group.
Hagerstown back in the day, Georgetown modern day: Dirt Modifieds weigh too much for day racing in March. Either it's heavy 1 groove tracks w/ruts or dry and dusty 1 groove tracks. Glad to see that we're back racing tho.
I know it was really windy, but your audio was terrible. I couldn't understand anything you were saying. Would one of those lapel mics with the fur on them be an option. I'll still watch all season
Why all the flat tires? The turns seemed pretty rough too. Windy racing is the worst. Both teams did pretty good for the first race of the season here in the east..
I like the new way but i still feel like a 12 car redraw is to much....should be top 2 in each heat to the redraw IMO...so a 6 or 8 or 10 car redraw depending on how many heats.
Daytime races should be dropped ! Conditions were horrible to say the least, I can’t recall a really good daytime show anywhere’s! Glad you were able to recover the Go -Pro . Lots of good wins ahead for Billy and Mike !
Mike, had you not been totally riding on the right rear you would have finished 3rd or better. I can't believe you guys don't get those cars more balanced, they ride on 2-wheels.
They are usually faster with both rear wheels on the ground. Naturally they are going to wear the RR but they need to get the LR in the game it's awful easy setting here watching on the screen but not near as easy driving and setting up the cars
I hate to say it but if you leave a lane open on the bottom someone is going to stick it in, billy couldn’t see him coming and the guy under him seen a line. Racing deal
I really think that they should make the rule that in any feature unless otherwise stated 100 laps or less you cannot change tires unless it is flat or showing cords. The good thing about that is that would work in the favor of smooth drivers that take care of their stuff verses the ones that are balls to the wall and then going in half way and putting on new tires and come blasting thru the field. This is done by the leaders that is always up front and winning all the time. Everyone else has to be put under caution while they wait for those certain people change tires. Not everybody has the extra money it takes to do that. So if it is flat or showing cords you cannot change tires.
Daytime racing----- I know that when the wind blows that hard coming out of the north the people in the pits will get sandblasted Daytime racing in my opinion is not a good thing when the wind is blowing that hard Good luck next week.
Need more invert than 3 when going on time, otherwise fast cars start up front and makes for boring racing. Rather have draw so it mixes it up or invert top half and bottom half.
Definitely not a fan of time trials. Back in the day the high money and points guys started the heats in the mid-pack. You had to drive your ass off to qualify which I like to see. I understand opening day or nobody has points or money earned so I'd rather they draw. I'm definitely old school car owner and racer.
I wonder in 2024 which store gets the most $$ from the entire DTU enterprise: Wawa, Sheetz or Stewarts? All quality establishments that are convenient and good at what they do!
I was worried how Mike would race being 4 races behind not going to Florida.....but he was damn good til the flat😮.....BP2 does his usual when racing the Big Boys 25th out of 25.
Don't they time trial for starting position in their heats? If so, it doesn't matter where you draw coming through the gate, right? Then if you time trial well in your group you start up front in your heat, right? then if you finish top 3 in your heat, the worst you can redraw is 12th and, that's not too bad, right? What draw sucks?
I'd think the fans would rather see a good race! Watching the fast guys come from the back is awesome!! Plus I know a few who are tired of the same winners ALSO! Without fans you have no purse
Can you please explain what's the love of yellow, why does Mike stay with the same color scheme every year I mean I know you can get different color sheet metal and it's not that big of a price difference or is it to do with the sponsor's do they just want to stay with the same old same color combo year after year does Mike not believe in changing up colors to see if it can change his luck
Keep digging, Mike. Love your take on the day and how you keep things in perspective. Keep on keeping on. Thats racing!
Luv the teamwork with Billy before Mike went out for the heat , Good Luck at Port Royal nice to see everybody back
That's day racing. It's exciting when cars come out of the dust cloud and take a person out. Been there, done that. I avoid day races after a rainstorm like the plague now.
Better days coming guys! Keep diggin. Sucks about that new car but thats racing.
Once again, Mandee You show us why you're the OG of this genre.!! That wasn't a vlog it was a documentary, Something we'd expect from Netflix, and I just can't wait to see more and more of them. Thank you for doing this!!!

Unfortunate day for both. Glad Billy’s okay. Looked like a one lane rough track. Better luck next weekend, going to be a good season this year
Awesome video, love the names being shown of all the guys, plus the lineups. Super job Mandee!

See you then!
Tough weekend. All the rain that fell you wouldn’t think the track would have dried out as fast as it did. Onward and upwards to the next race.
Tough luck there Mike and crew, to bad the race didnt end with so many yellows and blown tires at the end. I thought for sure you were going to have a podiom 3rd place for sure. Dont know how you could see in 1 and 2 with the dust. Cant hang your heads guys everyone knew the 35 was giving a serious run. Maybe Port will be much better, will be watching on flow for sure. stay safe and good luck!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Mike!
Wow didn't realize while watching on Flo he hit it a ton 😮
That was a bummer! Gahh! Get em next week!
Glad that’s over with now to a real race track the speed palace and night races and right now warmer weather , great run Mike hate for Billy now so much work to do and short time , never liked Hosier tires loved it back in the day when we had the big three !
Good luck to you guys at Port Royal tonight
Thanks!
Time trials for sure. Sucks starting in the back with the doorknobs just because you drew bad. If you time trial in the back, so be it. In the video, I liked having the crew mic'd up and hearing the conversations. Nice mix of that and your progress reports. As for the wind, where is your dead cat?
Mike is going to be mr. Dirt this year for sure
YES!
I guess for Billy the old draw isn't so bad after all ? It stinks that he came home with a wrecked car.
Nice run for Mike while it lasted, he must have been waiting for it after seeing the other leaders have trouble.
Hopefully things go easier for both teams.
Tough one!
Hey you guys racing at Port Royal tonight
How much tread was there left on Mike’s tire?
Man I’ve said it before I’m glad the Series I run we don’t have a rr tire choice. So everybody is screwed lol
Time trial is the best
No footage needed! Billy got dumped. Great to see all hands on deck getting Mike back out.
Time trials way more fair than draw. Mandy, you need an auxiliary mic with a wind sock.
👍
Trimming is better then drawing for position. I don't care for day racing either. Most tracks dry out too quick, and it eats the tires faster. The dust is a great factor for both fans and drivers .
does this mean were gonna see billy at albany saratoga for those super dirt races up here
I go with qualifying for heats and positions goes on heat results and the remaining cars qualify by having a consi race!
I think it was a great race day. Billy’s day kinda stunk, not a lot of laps. But Mikes day was great, he only had 3 bad laps. The way he was running up front without going to Florida he gets 10 thumbs up 👍 Inside of the trailer looks great. And Mandy Mikes got all kinds of Milwaukee tool’s how’s about a heated coat for the sister in the group.
We’ll take those 10 👍! 😃
Don’t let the keyboard warriors get you down. Lot of racing to go this year. Best of luck to Billy and Mike 🏁
C ya at the speed palace
See ya there
Hagerstown back in the day, Georgetown modern day: Dirt Modifieds weigh too much for day racing in March.
Either it's heavy 1 groove tracks w/ruts or dry and dusty 1 groove tracks.
Glad to see that we're back racing tho.
I know it was really windy, but your audio was terrible. I couldn't understand anything you were saying. Would one of those lapel mics with the fur on them be an option. I'll still watch all season
Thanks for the feedback
None of the qualifying or heat races make sense when they redraw anyway! I don't get it
Nothing to hang your heads about Stu’s tire went flat on the scales and the other guy’s on the track in victory lane.just luck. you did your job.😊😊😊
Don't understand did some one rear end him?
yes on the wawa count
Why all the flat tires? The turns seemed pretty rough too. Windy racing is the worst. Both teams did pretty good for the first race of the season here in the east..
Nice video,the results suck and i hope Billy's chassis isn't junked
I m all for what put positioning in the drivers hands. Not pure luck.
Well the results weren't what you wanted. But both cars were fast. And now that you have a Wawa bag, you NEED to keep a count.
Drawing is what little kids and cowboys do when they are pissed off over a woman. Timing is where it's at. Good luck.
That’s one way to put it 🤣
I like the new way but i still feel like a 12 car redraw is to much....should be top 2 in each heat to the redraw IMO...so a 6 or 8 or 10 car redraw depending on how many heats.
With the technology we have available now. Time trials don't need to take that long. Put 5 cars on the track and give them 2 laps
Billy was running off the bottom. Of course someone was going to stick it in there.
Draw 🏁
Daytime races should be dropped ! Conditions were horrible to say the least, I can’t recall a really good daytime show anywhere’s!
Glad you were able to recover the Go -Pro . Lots of good wins ahead for Billy and Mike !
You bet🏁🏁
Mike, had you not been totally riding on the right rear you would have finished 3rd or better. I can't believe you guys don't get those cars more balanced, they ride on 2-wheels.
🤨
They are usually faster with both rear wheels on the ground. Naturally they are going to wear the RR but they need to get the LR in the game it's awful easy setting here watching on the screen but not near as easy driving and setting up the cars
I prefer time trials, let your hard work pay off
I hate to say it but if you leave a lane open on the bottom someone is going to stick it in, billy couldn’t see him coming and the guy under him seen a line. Racing deal
It depends on classes, Top classes time trial, lower classes draw.
The dust is horrible....either water the track more or get better tire company also ..... always flats with American racers
I really think that they should make the rule that in any feature unless otherwise stated 100 laps or less you cannot change tires unless it is flat or showing cords. The good thing about that is that would work in the favor of smooth drivers that take care of their stuff verses the ones that are balls to the wall and then going in half way and putting on new tires and come blasting thru the field. This is done by the leaders that is always up front and winning all the time. Everyone else has to be put under caution while they wait for those certain people change tires. Not everybody has the extra money it takes to do that. So if it is flat or showing cords you cannot change tires.
It would be interesting to see if that changed things up
I don't like redraws...period. Daytime racing is tough, but the wind is as bad as it was making it tougher.
With the conditions, Deyo should have switched it up and ran twin 20's $4G to win each.
Interesting point
Daytime racing----- I know that when the wind blows that hard coming out of the north the people in the pits will get sandblasted Daytime racing in my opinion is not a good thing when the wind is blowing that hard Good luck next week.
Should be draw to set your place for time trial to set the heats no redraw
crew guy said it right... "daytime racing sucks".
Draw!
Need more invert than 3 when going on time, otherwise fast cars start up front and makes for boring racing. Rather have draw so it mixes it up or invert top half and bottom half.
Honestly you should go after WAWA as a marketing partner..
Definitely not a fan of time trials. Back in the day the high money and points guys started the heats in the mid-pack. You had to drive your ass off to qualify which I like to see. I understand opening day or nobody has points or money earned so I'd rather they draw. I'm definitely old school car owner and racer.
Thanks for that perspective
Bad finish to a good run
Day racing almost always sucks.
The only people that like the draw, are the ones that draw low numbers.
That 28 car shouldn’t be aloud to run modified…
I wonder in 2024 which store gets the most $$ from the entire DTU enterprise: Wawa, Sheetz or Stewarts? All quality establishments that are convenient and good at what they do!
Should we start a spreadsheet? Lol
Day shows SUCK, fans can't see , destroy tires. Not a fun day
I was worried how Mike would race being 4 races behind not going to Florida.....but he was damn good til the flat😮.....BP2 does his usual when racing the Big Boys 25th out of 25.
Spends the first 5 min complaining about the draw 5 min 34 seconds starts complaining about time trials, no offense just saying. Love the videos
Draw SUCKS!!!!!! not fair to the fast cars to have to drive through all the junk!
Don't they time trial for starting position in their heats? If so, it doesn't matter where you draw coming through the gate, right? Then if you time trial well in your group you start up front in your heat, right? then if you finish top 3 in your heat, the worst you can redraw is 12th and, that's not too bad, right? What draw sucks?
@robertbrost7777 that's how the sds runs, not stss.
Always thinking the grass is greener!🤗🇺🇸
I'd think the fans would rather see a good race! Watching the fast guys come from the back is awesome!! Plus I know a few who are tired of the same winners ALSO! Without fans you have no purse
@@TheZnichols21 I thought STSS went to that format for 2024.
Mike I'm sorry but that team is not going to get you to the winners circle
Can you please explain what's the love of yellow, why does Mike stay with the same color scheme every year I mean I know you can get different color sheet metal and it's not that big of a price difference or is it to do with the sponsor's do they just want to stay with the same old same color combo year after year does Mike not believe in changing up colors to see if it can change his luck
i think it was a great day for white chicken chilie ❤
