    THIS IS SICK!!!! Think back a few year guys, Cleet really was "just" a KZreadr that ran drag cars and did a few shows around the US every year. Ever since he got the Freedom Factory things have literally exploded. Expands his crew, his fleet, becomes a Partner with Motion Raceworks who just keep expanding constantly. He's hosting multiple events at the Freedom Factory, circle track racing, Clutch Kickers, 2.4hrs of Le Mullets, Freedom 500 etc....it's actually insane when you stop and think how quickly things have changed and continue to change! I mean he had Top Gear film an episode at the track!! I'm so damn excited to see what happens over the next few years, especially at the Freedom Factory. You're a damn inspiration Cleet, and we're all so damn proud of you!

I been to a few half mile asphalt tracks and ran my 410 and we was not lifting at all doing 145 mph. Perfect class for cleet is to get him a latemodel team going for asphalt and use his shops to run the race team out of and maybe a ARCA team or NASCAR truck team he had theoney. These front wheel drive cars are garbage doesn't tech you anything how a real oval car drives. He should get in a 4 cylinder rear wheel drive class like pro 4 latemodels or mini stocks which is your mustangs and Corollas all rear wheel drive carbed 2.3 Ford to 2.8 stroker 550 cam andouse trap springs and turning 10k RPMs screaming

    I remember sitting at a camp fire with 2 sprint car drivers and a mate that competed in a lower class and remember them explaining to my mate that he was actually quicker than lot of other drivers, but he was too close coming into the corners so he had to slow to avoid contact and therefore lose speed. They said time the distance, so you have enough room to catch them by the exit of the corner to make a move on the straight and he placed 9 positions higher in the first race after that. I think Cleetus could be even better using this advice as he may not get stuck in a position like the first heat.

    Wonder how many sand bagged to be in front of the race? I know I did when I raced. I had a bone stock car racing a lot that had more in their motor than my whole car. I did let them know I was out there.
