So much fun watching Jesse @ our home track this weekend! 🏁 #23 Mini Wedge Driver, Brayden Hill was star struck!! 🤩 What a great wheelman. Thank you for being so humble and kind. Good Luck on the tracks!! ✌️💥
Wow I remember in the early days when you announced you were leaving your steady job to chase the Hunt to Front dream. Always impressed with how well you run with so little seat time, especially in a modified. You take care of your equipment and I know you will continue to get opportunities. Congrats! Also love the north west folks, they are so sincere and keep racing fun.
we all want to win but then there are times like this ..at a new track and figuring out the lines and getting your thoughts together..no better way to learn than taking home a podium finish at a brand new track you've never been on before..and making racing buddies along the way is the icing on the cake ..good job crew
Jesse I watched it again and you finished second again I was hoping you learned something after the first time lol! It was so cool to see you so relaxed and so happy around a race track!
hey Jesse, been watching you and the htf boys for a while now and i am glad to see you in the spotlight now, you've earned it! keep doing it your way and the wins will come, you are a good guy and a pleasure to watch! thanks for the video!!!
Jesse that last minute with the race winner was classic comedy! Something to think about maybe HTF should have a blooper section i’m sure there has been times! Great job racing and video!
Great job Jesse! Def shows how talented you are to show up to a track you’ve never been to and very first time on it set fast time… plus it was in a modified, which you’ve only been behind the wheel of a few times! Don’t ever doubt yourself anymore brother!!
Thats one you wish you could do over again. Almost as if you got complacent there when you got behind that last bit of lap traffic (the white, blue, orange car), as if you thought you had a big lead and never tried to pass them. Look like you couldve gotten under them. The bottom was open. Picking off lap cars is a very important part of racing. Gotta set them up, and know where and when to do it. If you run up on lap traffic and then just stop and follow them, you will be ran down quickly more times than not. That lap cars you ran up on werent too far off the pace of the leaders and that makes it harder to get around them. And it's easy to say when watching it on UA-cam, but I am a dirt track racer. Raced RWD ministocks and streetstocks since 2013. I speak with experience.
Jesse you did a Hell of a Job! One thing about peoples comment on here they all know to Win but 98% of them wouldn't have even finished Second. I also understand you wanted to make sure that the Car you didn't own came back in one piece!
I grew up at this track and I just started racing your local track in Milton at Southern Raceway. Just got some some fuel from Joseph last week! Nice run man! You should run the annual Woodtic Aug 1-3rd at Merritt, it's a great show! Maybe I'll take the mod up 🤔
Jesse that was fantastic and FUN TO WATCH!! PURE EXCITEMENT 👍🏁🏆🏁 Sure wish you could've held on for the WIN🏁🏆🏁 You did a great job driving that modified!! I know you were over the moon drawing a 1 in the pill draw!!😂😂 Really wish you could have hung on for the WIN🏁🏆🏁 But 2nd isn't bad considering you're at a track you've never raced before and had quick time and pole for the first race especially since you're used to driving crates and super late models. I hope you stick with late models and crates because they're my favorites and the speeds are amazing. Glad you are having fun. Can't wait for the Sunday race!!! Prayerfully it'll be a WIN🏁🏆🏁
Nice Jesse. Cool dirt track up there. That big smile on your face tells me that it has been worth that long trip up to "yankeeland!" Ok, what about Jordan. He was supposed to race last weekend. We need an update!
You and Colin did an awesome job he's got top-of-the-line equipment and Colin a hell of a driver to m4u never being there awesome job buddy I was trying to get to Tri-City Friday and then tried to make Sunday at Merritt wanted to meet you but things didn't work out that way but congratulations you did awesome looking forward to the video for Sunday but take care buddy
Awesome job again Jesse!!! Really enjoy watching you vlog a race. Especially driving in it! Great driving too! Can’t wait to see the 3rd race!!! If you ever come to a track close to me in Michigan I will definitely be coming to see you drive! Maybe come over to Silver Bullet Speedway in Owendale up in the thumb. Then I could come and watch! 😉😃👍
Good job Bud you had that car rolling. I'm happy for you. I don't know if you'll read this bud maybe think about getting one of those Diamond mods or a longhorn mods and keep gassing on those mods.
Great job with the racing great job with the video Jesse! Glad you enjoyed your time in the great lakes state … I am probably biased because I am very familiar with the facility but it cranks out a lot of good races … One of the best episodes I have seen in quite some time congrats!
Isn’t that every one’s goal?? Or I guess a great driver has to have a crap car and start in the back and come to the front. Qualifying is key the best drivers in the world say that when you start up front you chance to win increases
Awesome friggin Job Jesse u had it but you needed to move down earlier and he never would have gotten by ya but great job for almost no time in a mod and new track ya great job bud u too Collin🏁🏁
Good runs Jesse, you had the car. That last race was yours all the way, you just needed to stick in those lap cars instead of follwing them they lost you that race. got to go by them bud. You're getting good experience thought and I see you're really into it. Just got to stick the nose in there and go for it. Not to be to harch but towards the end of that race you became the follower instead of the leade. I won't give up on you though, you have what it takes.
Super proud of ya bud!!! Awesome!!! Great that yall found issues and a shock mount will give ya fits, catch/break loose & such likeness... so 11th for last night looks even better. Honestly though -- of what we've seen, this group of drivers are well worth racing with; an awesome "class" of cars!!! A YUGE Shoutout to Collin & Crew ... absolutely love the "character" of the whole bunch of ya! :) HTF to the top!!! (when was it not!?!). Let's Goooooooo Be Safe
He has how many races in a modified? Give him time and he will be fine. I am betting the owners of the cars he drives would take a second place over a torn up car sitting in the back or worse parked because it's destroyed.
Got-Dog-It jesse!!! I was telling ya he's there, He's There 😂. I'm glad ya had a Good Run/Experience up Here in Michigan. Ya latched on to a Group of Fellas there. Rock ON and maybe Jordan can hook ya up with a Mod. 😏 Hee Hhee Heeee? 🤭
Honestly I’m glad to get some content lately it’s really been few and far in between. I get it ya’ll are pushing your series stream, but I don’t gravitate towards that like I did the videos. I actually started watching a lot of Cletus Mc and he pretty much uploads daily. Not getting down on ya’ll and hope to see more soon. To Jesse’s race.. I knew he was going to struggle in lap traffic seems like he does when in that situation. Still a great run on a new track so congrats Jesse! Would have liked to seen ya get the W bud!!
Lap traffic didn’t cause him to lose the win, he became complacent just to sit there behind those slower cars.. can’t blame it in the lap traffic, he lost that race..
Great run, bummer about getting caught behind the lappers. That rear tire looked a bunch better than it did down in Florida!! Maybe change the nickname from Jesse the Gasser to Jesse the WheelMan!! Awesome job to both you and Colin. I have friends in the Traverse City area so hopefully sometime when we are up in that area visiting we can watch Colin race up there sometime. Oh, and the content is pretty good for someone who is normally on the other side of the camera, but then your experience on Twitch works to your advantage. Can't wait to see the VLog from night 3!
So much fun watching Jesse @ our home track this weekend! 🏁 #23 Mini Wedge Driver, Brayden Hill was star struck!! 🤩 What a great wheelman. Thank you for being so humble and kind. Good Luck on the tracks!! ✌️💥
Love that Jesse is doing the videos on his own to “do his part”! And to have his competitor that beat him on the video was a class act fellas!
That was my home track for 5 years, on of my favorites.

Excellent content. This was an awesome video from start to finish. Great job Jesse ! "The Gasser" can definitely wheel a modified!
Really cool seeing yall split up and go different racing.

Great job Jesse. As always I'M proud of you and the HTF Team!!

Great race for you and Collin, looks like you figured Merritt out pretty quickly!
Great time great fun.. Jesse you are a wheel man
Jesse you made another great video, thanks!
Love it, Thanks.

Great job. And the racer isn't hurt. Have fun
Great race, Jesse. You gotta get around that lap traffic.
I grew up at this track and I just started racing your local track in Milton at Southern Raceway. Just got some some fuel from Joseph last week! Nice run man! You should run the annual Woodtic Aug 1-3rd at Merritt, it's a great show! Maybe I'll take the mod up 🤔

Good run Jesse!! It’s hard to go into somewhere unknown and run up front!!
Outstanding job!
You did a good job Jessie that's a hell of a driving
Good job Jessie you got those open wheel modified to figure it out second-place pretty good
Great run Jesse!! you also did a great job with the camera.
Nice job Jesse. Those backmarkers were all over the place.
What camera is Jesse using he did a great job racing and camera
Ya gotta get by those lap car Jesse !
Nice Jesse. Cool dirt track up there. That big smile on your face tells me that it has been worth that long trip up to "yankeeland!" Ok, what about Jordan. He was supposed to race last weekend. We need an update!
Great one Jesse, it was yours
You did a fine job Jesse. Seems like that dude got good cars.
Need to work on that lap traffic. Need to pass them too. Lol
An open wheel Jesse shirt would be sick

Nice job you keep hanging in there you will win one
That was a fun vlog Lol Good job Jesse

#JESUSisALIVE #HTFnation

Glad ya like Michigan Jesse
Good job Jesse, looks like you are having a lot of fun in the north .
I knew when Jesse stayed on the high side entering the lap cars that was it........but still a good run congrats
Jesse
Great job
Dang.!
Man I think Jessie was made for a modified. good run bud
Good job Bud you had that car rolling. I'm happy for you. I don't know if you'll read this bud maybe think about getting one of those Diamond mods or a longhorn mods and keep gassing on those mods.
Good job
Jessie you did a fantastic job. You made HTF proud
Good job on A second place finish Jessie
Great job with the racing great job with the video Jesse! Glad you enjoyed your time in the great lakes state … I am probably biased because I am very familiar with the facility but it cranks out a lot of good races … One of the best episodes I have seen in quite some time congrats!
Could see htf getting a modified for Jesse to run on nights modifeds are a support division for htfsds
Why so it can set in the shop ?? Like his 604 does...
He'll be a world beater as long as he starts on the pole with a fast car and doesn't have to pass anybody.
Give him time the more traffic he’s in the more experienced he’ll become
Isn’t that every one’s goal?? Or I guess a great driver has to have a crap car and start in the back and come to the front. Qualifying is key the best drivers in the world say that when you start up front you chance to win increases
Awesome friggin Job Jesse u had it but you needed to move down earlier and he never would have gotten by ya but great job for almost no time in a mod and new track ya great job bud u too Collin🏁🏁
Well done, Jesse.
Dang u did a awesome job hell of a time
Good runs Jesse, you had the car. That last race was yours all the way, you just needed to stick in those lap cars instead of follwing them they lost you that race. got to go by them bud.
You're getting good experience thought and I see you're really into it. Just got to stick the nose in there and go for it. Not to be to harch but towards the end of that race you became the follower instead of the leade. I won't give up on you though, you have what it takes.
Awesome Jesse good job
Or the imca modifieds crate engine or open motor?
They run a 604 crate engine.
Sounded like a turd. Was wondering same thing.
Merrit speedway is my home track!
Good run seems like you have to practice more when you get in traffic how to manage getting thur
Jesse, you should buy a modified and start your own channel
Merritt speedway is in Houghton Lake Michigan Jesse
You gotta pass them boat anchors Jesse,they're back there for a reason...to hold you up. Good run!
Great draw Jessie
Nice driving, Jesse ! Another fine job wheeling that mod. Lap traffic will get ya. Better luck next time.
Super proud of ya bud!!! Awesome!!! Great that yall found issues and a shock mount will give ya fits, catch/break loose & such likeness... so 11th for last night looks even better. Honestly though -- of what we've seen, this group of drivers are well worth racing with; an awesome "class" of cars!!! A YUGE Shoutout to Collin & Crew ... absolutely love the "character" of the whole bunch of ya! :) HTF to the top!!! (when was it not!?!). Let's Goooooooo Be Safe
What is the name of Jesse's Channel
Great job all weekend long Jesse you have nothing to hang your head about man
An honorable job wheelin that mod. It would be cool to get Jordan in one of those diamond race cars and see what he could do.
Jesse you feel more comfortable in late model or IMCA?
Good job Jesse!
Where's night 3?
Unfortunately lap traffic is part of the deal with racing. Congratulations Jesse on great racing.
Dude you and Joseph have so much trouble in traffic it’s like y’all forget that there is a race behind yall
Being in someone else's car had to make a difference!!!
He has how many races in a modified? Give him time and he will be fine. I am betting the owners of the cars he drives would take a second place over a torn up car sitting in the back or worse parked because it's destroyed.
Great race Jesse. For you to come up to Michigan and win 2 heat races and a 2nd in a feature is pretty dam good!!
@Chris Gable and when was the last time you won a race or better yet finished 2nd? I’m not talking about the rubber duck race at the city pond.
Had it in the bag! Bad luck with the lapper getting in his way, great job giving them yanks the what for lol.
Got-Dog-It jesse!!! I was telling ya he's there, He's There 😂. I'm glad ya had a Good Run/Experience up Here in Michigan. Ya latched on to a Group of Fellas there. Rock ON and maybe Jordan can hook ya up with a Mod. 😏 Hee Hhee Heeee? 🤭
You should get a modified for Florida.
Good job Jesse.
Dang bud you gotta be thinkin.
A bit quicker soon as lap traffic shows up
Got to be a great track with that name.😂
well done
Honestly I’m glad to get some content lately it’s really been few and far in between. I get it ya’ll are pushing your series stream, but I don’t gravitate towards that like I did the videos. I actually started watching a lot of Cletus Mc and he pretty much uploads daily. Not getting down on ya’ll and hope to see more soon. To Jesse’s race.. I knew he was going to struggle in lap traffic seems like he does when in that situation. Still a great run on a new track so congrats Jesse! Would have liked to seen ya get the W bud!!
Great job.... Fast car...Good driver, Don't know who set the car up but Good Job.
Great run Jesse! Wish you could have run the bottom and you would have won!
Lap traffic didn’t cause him to lose the win, he became complacent just to sit there behind those slower cars.. can’t blame it in the lap traffic, he lost that race..
Should of been on the bottom anyway
Jessie almost stunk up the show. Good run. That Chase kid seems like a good dude to race against.
When will we see a Jordan driver shirt or hat
All you needed was a caution. You look good in a modified. I see a win real soon.
Ya boys keep an eye out ya'll have a rising star. Good job Jesse.
Congratulations JESSE
Great run, bummer about getting caught behind the lappers. That rear tire looked a bunch better than it did down in Florida!! Maybe change the nickname from Jesse the Gasser to Jesse the WheelMan!! Awesome job to both you and Colin. I have friends in the Traverse City area so hopefully sometime when we are up in that area visiting we can watch Colin race up there sometime. Oh, and the content is pretty good for someone who is normally on the other side of the camera, but then your experience on Twitch works to your advantage. Can't wait to see the VLog from night 3!
Jesse you might have to speak to the boss about getting a HTF Modified
Why so it can set in the shop like the 604 .
First time out 2nd place can't be too mad at that.
Great job Jesse! Good car.. smooth track.. Like Rush hour in Indianapolis lol..
You can’t waste time around lap traffic move them if you have to
Do that when your driving someone else's car, it's a lot harder than you think!!!!
