Civic straight violated that Chrysler 😂
Haha yeah I shot up to his outside and it was all over, that civic only has 110hp and it wasn't even my car, just borrowed it for the night.
Justin, that race was the race of the night man. A true "David vs. Goliath" and extremely entertaining!
Hands down, the best entertainment on the internet. Period.
Clean and action packed
It was a pleasure getting to film here for the first time to share with you guys!!! Hope you enjoy my coverage, it’s just coming to my attention that I skipped a first round race with Justin in the Honda who won by gaps against an s10. Apologize for missing that, I never usually make that mistake but clips do get shuffled around in the software and I put this one together pretty quickly after some time away from the footage. I won’t make that mistake again! Hope you enjoy! 😎👊🏁
Oh I definitely enjoyed watching it, pretty cool intro to the video aswell 😎
@@ratrobs7693 I hope as many people as possible come down, I want to see what would happen if we had something like 30 cars out there at once. And I usually start at the back so it'd be interesting to see how far up the field I could move in five laps
@@88e303stanggt they’ll be announcing more for next season, usually refer to it as their “spectator race” 🏁
Outstanding video and deeply appreciate you taking the time to do this. Fantastic show case for an event at New Smyrna Speedway, FL, that continues to gain in popularity and participation.
Appreciate you watching!!! It was a pleasure visiting and filming for the first time!!! You crushed it out there, awesome racing!!! 👊🏁
Don’t miss the burnouts. Good job following action on last 5 lapper. Announcer decent. Great content.
There wasn't any burnouts in spectator races here, we drive almost a complete lap before arriving at the start finish line. By the time we get there our tires are already warm there's no need for a burnout.
I freaking love these videos! I grew up a race fan and my mom raced dirt at Ascot in Gardenia CA. Good clean fun!!
Totally great racin', what a great show. Thanks for all your time and effort to show us.
That 5 lap race got my gears going like no other! I'm 100% gotta be in the next one
@@JustinOtterholt yes, deltona, I missed this one due to a Shelby event in Kentucky. When will the next one be?
@@THEDriverMod_ this was the last scheduled one this season, but sometimes they start again as soon as January. This year they started the first one in March.
@@JustinOtterholt keep me posted! I'll be at the freedom factory on the 15th for spectator drags, come on out and support!
Hell yeah, this is good entertainment on a weekend!!
Great idea to have everyone finish with a big race👍
Great selection of unusual cars! Thanks!
Awesome video, for some reason my first race got skipped, but I guess it wasn't a close one anyways.
Hope to see you there next season when I get my firebird on the track.
Wow very rare TBERG mistake...that’s a first, clips get shuffled when I import them to the software and I totally missed that! I’ll be back to redeem myself and upload all your races next time! 🤦♂️😂👊
Some good racing. Dude with black hood is a savage. Nice save and win.
Always appreciate the coverage and uploads 👍
Well Done Tyler. Thanks!
Appreciate you watching, awesome racing out there was a pleasure meeting you and filming here for the first time!!! 👊🏁
👍👍👍 Definitely enjoyed the video. Thanks T.
Like this set up laps at end good show
Keep up the content love watching this channel yall keep me entertained thank you
Thanks again for the videos bud! I am in Michigan and I don't miss a video.
I wish I could go it was gonna good to test Those 5 laps Thanks for letting me know that this race was Gonna happen I will go to the next one 👍👍
I just love it !!!!! ;-)
This video was amazing
I'd love to bring the Pinto out there! Its a shame it won't be competitive.
It doesn't need to be, we welcome all comers to join us. It doesn't matter what car you are in, driving around the track like that is an absolute blast.
@@JustinOtterholt You're right! Thanks for the support and encouraging words.
@@sweetdreams2460 yeah a lot of the drivers out there racing with us go out there knowing that they can't win, but they have every bit as much fun as those who are winning. There's nothing like driving around the racetrack like a real race car and then driving it straight home.
Thx for this @Tberg Media. Appreciate your time and effort. Great job! 😁
So these two Mustangs still dominate at New Smyrna. And it doesn't seem to change, unless Charlie shows up 🤣
The problem is that in order for Charlie to make the trip all the way down here, he wants the feature race to be 10 laps. And none of us want to run our cars that long.
@@JustinOtterholt hey! I've seen you commenting quite a bit and was wondering what's your track. Now I know. Not bad riding that fart can automatic Civic 🙂
Can you tell me what a difference that makes for Charlie? From what I understand, Spectator Drags is the star of the show. And he's with a good chance to win both events, no matter if it's 5, 10 or 15 laps...
@@effyfil4277 yeah the Civic I just borrowed for that one event, my Firebird isn't ready yet. New Smyrna is my home track now yes.
Charlie has a good chance to win if he can keep it together in the corners, but he has said in the past that he wants a 10-lap feature to make the long trip worth his while coming all the way from New York. And we don't want to race a 10 lapper here.
5 laps here on a 1/2 mile track is plenty.
@@JustinOtterholt I get it, but... I don't get it ;) Why the ten lapper? For "more show as I go"?
Anyway. What's your Firebird? Curious to see it run... you possibly a match to these two Mustang veterans?
@@effyfil4277 I don't know, you'd have to ask him why he wants 10 laps.
My Firebird is a 1979 with a built 327 that revs to 8k rpm and is geared like crazy. It'll get some wins out there, but I'm not going to run it at every event, probably every other event. Here's a video of it against a supercharged SRT8 300C on drag radials for the 2011 championship

👍👍👍👍👍
That would be interesting if seekonk adopted this dynamic with all vehicles racing at the end. Although the seekonk track is smaller, just a thought. Great vid as always!
Yeahh they worked in 5 car 5 lap races twice this season for special events but definitely a much smaller track for all the cars at once lol I don’t even know if I’d want to see all the Seekonk guys on THIS track at once! 😅
@@TBERGMEDIA yeah you right rowdy bunch of guys at seekonk compared to Smyrna! Lol
@@TBERGMEDIA the problem is, the Seekonk guys are too fast to go balls out in the corners at this track. With how powerful their cars are their brakes wouldn't last five laps and that's if they managed to not hit each other in the process.
@@JustinOtterholt I’m sure they’d adapt well, bunch of fast cars and drivers all at once can just get a bit rowdy!
@@TBERGMEDIA perhaps, but they like to let it all hang out in the corners at seekonk, and they wouldn't be able to do that here with how narrow it is in the corners especially in the feature race.
Me personally I'd love to see it, but if they get too rowdy and start bumping into each other then they wouldn't be welcomed back.
Closest spectator drags to my house hope to join one day
you guys should do motorcycle races like this!
Motorcycle spectator races would be very exciting, however it would have to be with some slower bikes because if you get some fast sport bikes out there, somebody would die.
@@JustinOtterholt ohh you could do moped/scooter night, thatd be hilarious
@@wally99szarek up in the northern states they used to do something called flat track motorcycle racing which was basically old café racers.
The black Mustang has its rear spoiler so angled it's more like an air brake.
Another 2 laps the white Mustang might have caught and passed Casey? He seemed to be coming on fast!
Yeah he beat Casey twice earlier this season and it always happens in the last lap. But this time Casey was on fresh tires, so it took a little bit longer to catch him.
Dear editor… no1 cares about a fancy opening.. we all came for the race.
Watching that Chrysler 300C barely beat a hybrid before losing to a non-Si and seemingly automatic Honda Civic was painful
Love what you're doing A LOT, and thumbs up every time... but, these cars were sadly pathetic 😐
The original idea behind spectator drags was daily drivers, that's what these cars genuinely are.
@@JustinOtterholt How *"exciting..."* but seriously, you know what I mean 🤔🤔
@@justachipn3039 the problem is that most people in my area with the really fast cars aren't willing to risk it in the feature race with everyone on the track, and the ones who would do it have never heard of spectator racing
@@JustinOtterholt You/they need to do better... other tracks that do this have cheap but fast Vetts Camaros Mustangs EVERYTHING up to 60 70 80+k cars lol Like I said in comment... pretty pathetic !!! Lets hope you/they do better... it's a hellofa lot of fun !!! 😜😜👍👍 Real sad guys... putt putt cars 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Raise track standards or give the locals the finger...
@@justachipn3039 not much I can do about it, I do my part by showing up. In this particular event I was borrowing a Honda Civic because my Firebird wasn't ready yet.
Wooooooohoooooooo🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅awesome
Damn the driver of the F-Body Camaro should be ashamed losing to a Dodge Dart, in what world your LS1 can't catch up to some 140hp shopping cart ?
😂
He also lost to me in the 110hp civic.
But It was the guy's first time racing, and he was understandably nervous racing in a crowd of cars like that. I was talking with him a lot leading up to the event, that will be a fast car once he gets more seat time
Yeah, I saw that too.
Maybe I shouldn't come down on the driver so hard, these can be fast but require some getting used to first, solid axle can be tricky under heavy loads on a sloped track surface.
Nice run with your Honda though 👍
It looks like you've got a Camaro, you should come out and show Justin how it's done 😀
New Smyrna is in Florida if I'm not mistaken, that would be a drive from NY😄
Honestly I'd love a track here but maybe one where cars run laps on their own, I'd be terrified to put a 20y.o car I care for for 9 years against someone not scared to trade paint if need be lol.
Always wanted to go to Lime Rock Park in CT or Watkins Glen upstate.
@@g00dl00kinb0i Seekonk is closer in MA but riskier IMHO. If you ever make it down to FL, may as well register with Chin and hit the Sebring long course also. Yeah, those guys who race their only vehicle are fn whack 🤪
I made it six minutes in and gave up. need to be doing some editing And find a better location. You’ll have it figured out in no time. Until then c-ya
@@TBERGMEDIA it's always the guys with no Channel content that has something stupid to say
Your videos are great. Forget the haters. How did the track fare through the storm ?
@@Tacticoolpapi it was flooded massively in the pit area and on Pit Road, and on the bottom groove of the racetrack
@@Tacticoolpapi The only one hating is Justin don’t get it twisted. 🤷 The freedom factory took a hit from the storm😔
This is like watching fkn paint dry with all the modern shit that's taken over...zzzz
What a surprise....another guy with no channel content that has something to say... 🤣
@@JustinOtterholt did mommy not give you enough hugs you seem a bit sensitive. I would hate to be the woman that rejects you next thing you know her boobs ain’t big enough her ass is too big her hair is short 🤷you’re just a sensitive little bitch ain’t you? 😂🤣😂🖕🫵🤡 are you a cop?🤭
Too much babbling in between rounds with the announcer Which should’ve been edited out you couldn’t see the burn outs you couldn’t see the start just a few things that could’ve been done better and now I’m getting blasted by deputy dip shit🤷 My bad I didn’t know you needed a CZcams degree to give advice😂🤣😂🤣
@@Theuglytruth1776 you couldn't see the burnouts because there weren't any. We drive almost a complete lap before arriving at the start line, our tires are warm by the time we get there so there isn't a need for a burnout.
And I figured that if you're going to criticize someone's content and editing, that perhaps you should provide something better on your Channel, kind of like lead by example.
You figured well there’s your problem😂😂😂 Your assumptions hold no water🤷 The last time I checked we have freedom of speech.
Really good video. But that announcer was annoying. He messed up on the calling the camaro a mustang, and continues with the lame mustang remarks. 🙄🙄🙄🙄
Yeah he's normally not annoying to most of us that race or attend this track, but yeah the repeated Mustang remarks annoyed me at this event.
I can’t see how NOS is allowed against every day drivers.
Yeah idk, black mustang is the only one that uses it. But I don't complain about it because the guy is a really cool dude and always offers advice to anyone who needs it. He's a former late model driver.
Plus, the firebird I'm bringing out there next season is only borderline streetable too, soooo yeah 🤷♂️
My Lincoln would beat his azz if he didn’t use NOS
You'd need a really strong Lincoln to do that. Guy is on toyo r888r 315s on all 4 corners and is a former late model driver at this track.
It can be done, but it takes a hell of a car to run with him, especially in the feature.
Sticky Man, I'd love to see that happen. Gotta get out there man, talk is cheap brother. Let's see what you got.
The real heartbeat of America; old school! As I watch original videos of when racing first started, they were the family cars, daily drivers.
Thanks again for the video and look forward to seeing more 😀!
