Should we fill the Freedom Factory for Jet Boats or Cover it in dirt for Dirt Cars?
Both
Jet boats for sure
dirt
I vote boats
Dirt no doubt
Wish you were able to stick around for next week! I'll be running our open mod!
Just watched your video now your here. Talk about small world, and I’m in the Uk 🇬🇧
I'll be watching ya man
Good luck and keep that car straight!
Good luck, go hard, stay off the wall.
It would be sweet to see you race each other
Why isn't this on ur channel lol
Only a track owner would go around admiring the lights, bleachers and fire extinguishers lol love it and also Maddie "You're gonna have so much fun!" She genuinely loves you and what you do 🙂
She's got him well insured! 🤣🤣🤣
Have you seen there dog? They definitely love each other. If you see a couple with a lab, they're in love
Smith's are thinking about putting roof over Bristol
@@bobdubree4718 It's that profitable is it? Wow!
Awesome seeing you step into other forms of motorsport, you looked pretty good out there!
Love the support from the Motorsport community! All different aspects from building, to sim racing and everything else coming together to show support is awesome.
@@lawrenceyancy3364 I was just thinking the same thing, truly amazing
JIMMER!!!!
@@lawrenceyancy3364 I’ll have you know Jimmer is a legitimate racing driver AS WELL as a sim pleb
I would love to see cleetus make a hit on a grudge bike or a top fuel dragster
As a die hard dirt circle track fan from Iowa, this could not make me more happy. Your channel has turned me on to so much that I never thought I’d like, and now you’re venturing into my roots. Very cool to see! I was there last year, now I wish I had made the trip again!
@cleetus pull up to Iowa
Madi’s “You’re going to have so much fun!”
That was awesome, genuinely loves you and what you do, so cool to see.
Such a sweet girl and so enthusiastic.
She is a real one
I was kinda questioning how fast they got married at first but after watching how great of a chick she is I don't question ol cleet wanting to lock that shit down asap
The love and excitement she shares with him about his passions are unreal. Fucking love it
She's the Best !
Cleetus is such a track owner. He's thinking about 2000 employees, the bleachers and lighting, not the amount of spectators lol
And tractors/equipment... I was thinking the same thing
"That's like, 10 grand in fire extinguishers," had me dying.
All I heard him say was "Hell yeah brother!! Welcome to the NEW AND IMPROVED FREEDOM FACTORY now 2x the size of Bristol... !!!!!!!"
@@OldManTruck I was just thinking the same thing when he was up in the box. He's going to want to upgrade the Freedom Factory. 🤣
You know them ideas are cookin, the $10k in extinguishers got me too lol
I like how your perspective changed after owning the Freedom Factory… the facility, the equipment… makes you appreciate it more. It’s a good thing, and appreciate all you do to being content. Very humble and down to earth person. Never lose that.
You can really tell what a passion the Freedom Factory is to Cleet when his first moments out on the oval went: “DANG THIS THING IS LOOSE”… Then immediately “Oh hey they’ve got some nice equipment, check out these lights- I wonder how it’s gonna look at night”…. This man eats sleeps and breaths thinking about how to grow Freedom Factory and what’s next, it’s great to watch someone who is 100% genuine to who he has always been and yet still have the business mentality a millionaire should, huge respect for Cleetus and his guys!
He has to think about the FF and it's continued growth; it's a huge debt hanging over him right now and it's not making near enough bank yet by my rough calculations.
the variety with this guy is unbelievable
Pretty cool, huh.
@@hobman thats the most stupid saying ive ever heard
@@gerritsikkema5776 there's more to the saying which is a compliment but it seems he chose to be a hater. Its actually "jack of all trades, master of none. But, oftentimes, better than a master of one"
@@chasewebber4316 yes thats the one i was going for. A good car mechanic cant only change brakes, he can repair anything on a car
Still hilarious to see Cleeter take note of the value in fire extinguishers, the nice bleachers and the quality of the lighting system wherever he goes now.
It's actually kinda infuriating how naturally talented of a driver Cleetus is. Drag racing, drifting, circle and dirt track, off-roading, tank driving, gets a jet boat and instantly masters it - is there anything he can't excel at? Oh and I bet a large percentage of his fans don't even know your boy FLIES FREAKING HELICOPTERS too.
Honestly, once you understand the dynamics behind vehicle control, you can jump around and pick it up pretty quickly.
I think next we need to get ole cleet a shot at tractor pulling 🤔
Rally cross Cleetus be cool Travis Pastrana, Tanner Foust and Ken Block have done this if not still competing in the sport
@@jasonphillips1064 I'm not convinced on rally there... that is a whole different animal then any other form of racing and as much as I love Cleetus.... all three you mentioned are way more skilled. At least for now
He is truly talented. I think some fans may feel he’s lucky/has money to get where he’s made it.. but aren’t necessarily aware of how incredibly skilled of a driver he is. Pro level experts in multiple fields have been totally comfortable letting him hop right in with minimal instruction. All the money and luck in the world can’t get you through something like what’s shown in this video without a ton of natural talent and skill. Basically a master of general motorsport operating. Love to see this type of content for that reason.
It’s amazing how talented of a driver you are, and really shows how much skill you do have, hope all goes well in qualifying, hell yeah brother!
I can hear Cleeter wheels turning in his head about how to turn FF into the next Bristol Motor Speedway. Hell yeah brother!!
After all he does own the field next to his track
Its like each different type of race track he goes to, he begins planning the next Freedom Factory expansion pack XD
Edit: Not to mention being impressed by the lighting lol
dude i thought the exact same thing. He dreamed about the FF and now he's got it. YOUR DREAMS ARE YOUR LIMIT CLEETER!!! YOU GOT THIS!
No need to recreate Bristol at the Ff. He just needs to hold a Cleetus and Cars event at their track a couple of times a year.
He has enough land he could make a killer dirt track for kart racing.
Imagine your first dirt race being at freaking Bristol. That's absolutely nuts.
What makes me so proud to be a long-time fan of yours. Hearing announcers say your name and being happy to hear you try their sport out. Out there with the big boys now Cleetus do all the things and I'm glad you keep brining us along for the ride.
It’s so great to finally see the oval track and just stock car racing in general as a whole get some good attention lately. Bunch of UA-camrs gaining attraction for it and NASCAR has definitely been getting more attention than the last few years. Such a good sport with good people. And good TRUE racing. Cleetus is gonna bring a lot more attention to the sport and I’m all for it
It's funny how he noticed the bleachers and setup and lights , the amount of employees it takes to run the place.. 3 years ago none of those things would cross his mind if he was there but as a business owner in that type of industry now he's dialed in on what's what when it comes to tracks and seating ECT... Funny to see...
It's impressive to watch. Dude's a sponge for sure.
he constantly wants to make things better so when he steps into some of the biggest race tracks he's definitely going to take notes
His gears are always turning, a showman, and a businessman. Hes a natural.
He's always had a hard on over bleachers since he bought the place. Seats mean $$$.
a little bit of race track envy 😆
From turbo whistles to racing dirt at Bristol. You are KILLING IT MAN keep it up!
These dirt track guys and circle track guys are just the real blue collar car guys. So generous, so damn passionate. Love these videos
I honestly feel like Dale's spirit has landed in Garrett (Cleetus) cause this guy amazes me in everything he drives or does as far as motor sports. He forever will be a motoring legend. Rock on bro! I hope you personally read this.
Watching Dale dragrace when they use to set the cars up once a year and race each other use to be great I wish they would bring that back
I sure hope everyone on here realizes how hard it is to take your first laps in a Hobby Stock on Bristol. That took big balls to run that soft spring car that fast right out of the box.
Yeah that things setup crazy soft
Watching the driving footage it doesn't even look like the steering wheel Is connected lol 😆
The announcer said that Cleetus ain't afraid of the loud peddle.
Oh for sure, it's pretty clear how much skill is required to not fly into a wall. Seriously, that was intimidating to watch.
It's a g body squirrely is it's 1st name.
You know you own a track when your equally as excited about seating, lights and the fire extinguishers - as you are the driving portion!
Never thought I’d see the day Cleetus is in my area. Let alone when Bristol is a dirt track again for a while. Hope you Qualify and do well this week Garrett.
Shiny dirt = dry & slick dirt
black tinted dirt=rubber down dirt (super sticky and burns tires quickly, but fast)
wet/moist dirt=speed and grip
True I know that from racing mud boss (rc cars)
Cleet needs to see this
Seen that on oval kart tracks loved the wet/moist dirt
You've seen a few dirt races
He was picking up super quick. Enter hard enough that you can actually drive a good line, and you could see him learn to not flick it too hard so as to get too sideways and slow down too much.
It’s amazing that you perform so well no matter what you are driving.
Wait till you see tomorrows vid. Did not perform so well 😂
@@CleetusM the struggle was real for you.
@@CleetusM they say loose is fast 😂😂
@@CleetusM I’m sure it’s still better than 98% of us would have done lol
@@CleetusM But at least you tried.
Good job out there! Looks like you picked it up really fast. Excited to see the rest! Also, what a cool venue. Amazing how many people are involved with an event like that. Must be a great experience being there.
Man, I just want to say thank you! Thank you for bringing awareness to dirt racing!! Do it for Dale!
Cleeter - been a BIG BIG dirt fan for a LONG time - I'm telling ya brother, dirt track is where it's at. You GOTTA do more of this. You will LOVE It. If you can get a chance - sit in a Late model vs these. Modified's are cool, but late models are where the big boys play. That is some speed right there!
Big boys play in 410 sprints. Late models are fast but mods are harder to drive beings they don’t have them big wide wheels
Have you heard of Hung the Front on UA-cam? They’re in talks with cleetus about turning some laps in one of there latemodels. Latemodels drive sooooo much better than these, and you being a dirt guy knows that haha
@@nolantuttle1249 Sprint drivers ate nuts. So are speedway bike guys.
Sprintcars
A winged 410, ain't nothing faster on dirt
It would be awsome if you started doing more of this stuff. Shows just how much of a natural you are. I enjoy drag racing, but doing way more of this would be awsome.
I love seeing you and your crew grow so much so fast! Been watching since the beginning, its been an adventure to say the least man!
It's amazing to see the car look so smooth from the outside , and just how hard you're work the wheel from the inside!
cleets ability to wheel is nuts, i've been around dirt track racing my whole life, and just imagining the speed of that track gives me butterflies
@@hobman hobbys can move, lol
@@hobman on a short track, no, but this is Bristol, I've raced mods, and we only hit about 90 mph on the chip(we gear the cars so that we don't hit the chip), I'd bet money Cleet is in the 90-100 mph range, his first time on dirt
I'll keep saying you need a sim rig for dirt, oval, drift practice. People have already made the FF in a ton of games, BeamNG, Asseto Corsa, etc. Heck, talk to the iRacing folks, I bet they'd be down to scan the FF and put it in for a Week 13 event, that would be AMAZING!
lol now i have to go hunt thru BeamNG's mod pages hahaha i have to have the freedom factory !
Great idea!
I've been hoping he'd want to scan the place as a base for a model for a while
he should have it scanned himself and hold the rights and be able to allow people to make tracks
Garret really is just the all time best dude hey. Such a talented, caring, down to earth bloke he just gets along with absolutely everyone and inspires and looks after everyone he’s around. 100% top bloke!
Gotta give it to Garrett for how much a Appreciates a awesome track,bleachers and as always great lighting haha it lets you know that the Freedom factory will never be neglected and will only get better with them and are support. Also your a natural on the track brotha. Wouldn’t expect anything less you have literally done it all at this point.
When I thought this channel couldn’t get any better! There you go Cleetus making it even better!!
Pretty cool to see Cleet checking out every type of grassroots racing in the US. Get ready to expand the parts line up at Motion Race Works.
If they start making dirt track parts I'd die 🙏
Cleetus and Maddie y'all rock! You was finally getting the hang of it and then they stopped you all! Love the channel and content! I'm here for the algorithm! Peace
My man’s damn near a natural. Goes to show how experienced of a driver cleet is to be able to pick up new things and just dive straight in
Having grown up on dirt racing, this is definitely some of your most exciting content for me yet. Would absolutely love to see a freedom factory modified race team in the future.
Dude I feel you its what my family has always done. I bet he drives a mod or a late model car next
When I was a kid we had a 1/4 mile dirt track in town and we went every Saturday night and watched. From a spectator's POV this is what I have seen the most of.
It'll be some of the most fun you've ever had, we've always wanted to go run our supers there, maybe next year. Good luck Cleet, have fun and be safe!!
Idk exactly how their parking situation is but they do have the big field they did the rally cross countries in lol...it'd be a short dirt track but it'd be fun as hell
Family use to do spint 410 few years back and dirt racing is the most fun you'll ever have bistol is one of them.
I've got a sport compact I wanted to run this year but I was too busy with college
Cleetus does not miss! With the content & the skills! Stoked for all you got going on man! 🙏🤘
Cleet admiring the staff, equipment, and facilities, he's the best!
As a dirt racing fan I am so excited to see you trying this out finally. Best of luck this week. And you really should hit up the Hunt the Front guys for one of the Freedom Factory races. All-in-all great job for your first time.
HTF!!
Hunt the Front at freedom factory would be cool
I was wondering how deep into the comments I’d have to go to see HTF.. Didn’t have to scroll down but 5 comments!
RIP I feel bad for Cleetus that he can never again just enjoy a visit to a racetrack without analyzing costs and equipment.
Maybe he's taking early calculations because , who knows Maybe he's already got plans of expanding his operations 🤷♂️
@@USAAMERICAFUCKYEAH77 I think he's eventually gonna absorb Brandenton
I mean with all the property space at the FF, he could easily add a dirt oval and mini lake for jetboats, I can see it happening. If he absorbs Bradenton, and adds the other 2 tracks, it would truely be the Freedom Factory.
@@jay_wright what are the other 2 Tracks ? Sorry for asking
@@carlosalonsogarateotanez3848 I was saying if he builds the other 2 tracks.
Man I love his positive vibes & how extremely Humble & appreciative he is coupled with an Unwavering Passion for all things Motorsport & well anything with an engine tbh lol love the video Cletus you sir are. Legend!!! 💯🇺🇸🖤🇳🇿🤙
Dude, you're the real deal. Thanks for doing what you do! F the haters, we've got you buddy.
For those of you wondering about the offset of the passenger reartire. That is because of the left turn geometry combined with the traction of the dirt track. YEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeYEEEEEE=Mc2....
Yeehaw math
The man is now officially land, sea, air and dirt certified!
As a fellow dirt guy. This is the video that I have waiting for and have enjoyed the most. Been waiting a long time to see ole cleet behind the wheel of a dirt car. Hope to see you get into the dirt world more!
Love seeing you trying different types of racing. Please keep em coming.
Have to give Cleet his credit. Man has wheeled many different discipline vehicles, and held his own.
This is where all of you greatest drivers started. On the dirt track.
Or at least on the dirt backroads. Wonder how 'leggers would do in modern vehicles.
And sadly most are still there because they don’t have the most important thing in racing these days daddy’s money
@@DaveS71 same place as back in the day. Wrapped round a tree or locked up lol.
I've seen a lot of videos on the channel but this is one of the coolest I've seen. Can't wait to see how the race goes
Cleetus your the man iv been watching a long time now and you have grown so tremendously its great to see my brother keep rockin FAN 4 LIFE here buddy i have sooooo much fun watching you have fun its like im living through you to do what i could never do
I think it’s so great to see motorsports of all kinds still up and kickin, such a massive place, an iconic place, staffed up taking care of the track and the racers so professionally and providing this type of racing. Even tho this isn’t exactly my forte it’s truly awesome and absolutely love to see it! Keep on keepin on brothers! 💪🏼💪🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
This channel is continuing to grow because you never know what to expect is next but you can guarantee its going to be fun
amen to that, never fails to make me smile, even on the worst days.
Man I wanna see you do more of this. This man’s a natural.
I love how Cleetus is admiring the track set up! Lets Go Cleetus!!!💪👍🍻
Cleet is a freaking natural at anything that has to do with a motor and wheels
Cleet is made to be around a dirt track crowd. This is the content i've waited to see after watching for years. Can't wait to see him in some live action.
Very cool video Cleetus! It was a nice surprise from the normal content!
I’m so excited for this and all the new stuff to come. Hell yeah brother
Would love to see cleetus on a dirt track journey working his way up into late models and sprint cars!
Ol cleet has the car control to compete!! This is amazing. This is exciting for this community. The smile on that mans face after ripping that 1776 was priceless. Can not wait to see more of this….
I absolutely love this content. Please bring more dirt track!!! YOUR right it's like asphalt and drifting at the same time. Damn you a Wheelman homie!!!
That looked wicked!! Can’t wait for the next videos!
Garrett has quite a knack for driving. He will enjoy this.
Cleater. You got enough room for a dirt track at the freedom factory! Let’s go!
Dirt track racing is right up your alley. You need to do more of this, you'll have a blast!
Good luck Cleetus! Your one heck of a driver , you got this.
Needs a dirt track at the FF now 😜 there's plenty of space in one of the fields out back.. would love to see more dirt action though, hit up hunt the front to see if you could make some content with them
Htf are honestly about the fakest guys in dirt racing the only real one of the bunch is jesse
@@54raceman what makes you say that? I've never met them but enjoying following them and their content. I've been around dirt track racing my entire life and hadn't noticed anything off about the HTF boys character.
Gawl Dang... Ol' Cleeter can wheel anything! Fantastic brother! 🇺🇲🏁🦅
That looks like the most fun!! I think Garrett might’ve found him a new hobby. I think he’d be a DAMN good dirt tracker.
It is so cool hearing you talk about dirt track racing. I grew up in the garage with my dad working on his car. Good times for sure.
wow! super cool! stepping out and stepping up is awesome to see :) let's goooo!
Makes me damn happy he finally discovered the dirt. Definitely feel like we're gonna see a future build
Hell yeah brother, that POV gave me the chills on the ride in man. Just a massive amazing track great video and race Cleet
Good luck Cleetus! Drive fast but safe drive... Looks like fun!
Watch the Freedom Factory grow to the caliber of Bristol, that would be outright insane
this man can seriously drive anything impressive
Loved that episode.
Your always changing it up.
Cleeter Killed it!!! He was like a little kid pulling into the track….Love It!!!!
After covid chills you should come to New Zealand and race the dirt, full contact super stocks. It'd be sick. Hell yea brother.
If the AU and NZ ever open up again. Really sucks right now
Get rid of the dude with the teeth.
He could kill two birds with one stone and do some NZ jet sprint stuff 👌🏻
Why would Cleet ever go to a place that hates Freedom?
Cleet you are living the life 👏🏾💯
This season is my 16th year driving a wrecker at a dirt track. Dirt us a complete different word. I’m glad you had the chance to do this. Ours is local Oregon red clay. And in this class our drivers are on 3 wheels most of the way around the track.
That was exciting. Great video. Looking forward to the next one.
Really cool to see you evolving as a driver. Finnegan, too. Looks like he might be racin' trucks soon!
Doing great things brother keep up the great work sir. Go cleet
Dude....I am so impressed! I raced on dirt for 11 years. I was the most fun I've ever had in my life! GOOD LUCK!
Loved the change up. Thanks Cleetus
I remember saying a few months back when you were racing rzrs that you can wheel in the dirt. Jet boats would be wild. Would it be like a circuit track, kind of like those v8 mini boats with a 2nd seat spotter? Dirt has some versatility: variety of classes to race, demo derby on the side, monster truck crushing cars, crown vic sideways in dirt looks cool. I would caution against anything open wheel- those things can get into the stands and hurt people and they tend to flip a lot. Think about your grass
My guy with the hand work!! Not to mention the flicks in, 🤣🤣🤣 Chelsea and LZ would be proud to see this
Looking good so far. CONGRATULATIONS.
Hell yeah brother. Look good on the dirt for your first time. Hope you had a blast look forward to seeing more
Garrett, you're a natural born racer. I love the drag racing, but your potential isn't showing by going in a straight line all the time
This is what I wanted to see now get in a late model!
HELL YEAH BROTHER! Love dirt circle track racing and you did such a good job! You got this!
This is awesome . Love seeing you guys try new things . I hope you do more dirt track videos
