From the bottom of my heart I thank you Michelle for working so hard to pump out vids for us fans.
Thank you Michelle!!!!
💪 💚
Yes!! Thank you Michelle
Annoying
And Michelle did a great job filming it . Thanks Michelle!!!
"Judge Shawn, I flat outran my talent!" OK, my sides are STILL hurting from laughing so hard. You need to bring Judge Shawn on more.... just the kind of humor that is right at home on Fab Rats!
Man. Don't ever change the format of this channel. Building cars/trucks, fabrication, troubleshooting, upgrades, off roading, wheeling, burnouts, road racing, derbies. You guys do it all. Thank you for being you guys.
I have to say that the editing on this video is remarkable. Keeping the viewer interested and engaged through such a long event... that's really hard to do. Michelle has done an exceptional job.
Paul racing one handed with his other hand holding the roof is pure class 👍😂 shout out to Michelle for doing a great job editing/keeping us entertained. 👌🤘
Was in the midst of Robbie Laytons video when my FAB RATS notification went off! Really hope I don't forget to go back and watch the rest of Robbies vid. PRIORITIES ARE STRAIGHT I'm here
What a hoot, racing throwaway cars is always a riot, penalty was hilarious, Mountain Dew to the rescue was good thinking. Looks like everyone had a good time and Michalle does great job editing the craziness. My favorite Sunday morning activity
It was an awesome time, hanging out with you guys. We will definitely come out to do it again. My kids loved it and their frisbees are hanging on their walls. Thanks fabrats you all are amazing.
Thanks Fab Rats for taking us along. Thanks Michelle for all your hard work and long hours. You're awesome
Michelle is the unsung hero of the channel! Thanks for all you do!
She's the best looking one also.
"You're welcome." Hey, cool... thanks for posting videos... in turn if you didn't then I guess there is nothing to watch on this channel. Kind of a two-way street, not like there isn't an entire internet out there. Don't start down the whole "we're doing you a favor" road, it's a big turn off.
As far as the hero talk, I like this channel, they are doing an amazing job putting out entertaining content... everyone is well aware of what it takes to post a video on youtube, not lifesaving by any means.
Sorry, I hit that part of the video and saw this post and... yeah, I put my two cents in while I'm sure nobody wanted it... this is world we live in. I read your posts you get to see what I think... YAY, social media.
edit: after watching to the end, 15 minutes... hell of a job, you should start training to be a driver next year... :P
Truly AWESOME weekend!! Thanks for taking us along 😁😁
13:03 but wait, you forgot to read the back of the drivers license. "The bearer is legally authorized to walk into a bar and assert they're a racedriver. Good luck when someone asks, "Yeah? What series?" This permit is not proof of employment eligibility, self worth, personal hygiene, and/or relationship potential. In fact, it pretty much argues against them." 😂😂
The drivers license is the best!😆 Glad you guys came!!
the last bunch of comments are right on par! this rebuild, race & helping out another team are all very enjoyable experiences, for sure!
WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF LEMONS, I suggest running ducts to cool front brakes and bring spares for every brake part and control arms. A gasket kit for the motor is also a good idea, we're to the point on our team where we have a complete built spare motor
And all for under $500 😉🤣
@@iffykidmn8170 its tradition to cheat as outrageously as you can
I race in Lemons in NJ and the eastern seaboard. You guys did great for your first time out. To add a bit to Michael Main, you need to hot pit. Now I have no idea as to the rules at that track, they may not let you do that. But to be competitive, you need to hot pit. Porter Field pads are amazing, give them a try. Ducting for the driver is a great thing too have. If you can, aim it right in the crotch. A cool shirt is almost a must for hotter states. And cut as much weight off the front of that beast as you can. Thank you guys for the vids, ya'll rock! Michelle, your amazing!! Keep it up guys!!
@@alfonsoalonzo Then what is point of keeping track of place finishes or categories? Participation awards for everyone and call it a good time.🤐
They don't count mods like that really only engine swaps, and yes hot pit. There were other teams doing it you guys probably could have cut a few minutes off each driver switch by doing so
I am asking for more racing and demolition derby content! Paul is a dangerous man behind the wheel.
That was awesome Paul, Im glad i was able to come out on Sunday to support Favorat Fabrats.
Many thanks to the officer for not giving Paul the biggest penalty- a ticket. I had such fun watching this and Chad's Fab video. All of you did great- driving and slinging cameras. Bunch of great folks having a great time. Looking forward to you guys racing again. Stay safe and GOD bless
You are living the dream! Thanks for taking us along for the ride!!
Congratulations on 4th place guys.....excellent video !!.... cam shots and editing impressive !!.... thanks for taking the time and energy to share this with us !!
I've never seen as many big children so happy over an old car! And that includes you Michelle! Great content, really enjoyed it!
Keep safe everyone.
Roger, Ballyclare, County Antrim. Northern Ireland.
LOL! I think I started a trend. Everybody is now thanking Michelle for all the hard work. As it should be. The boys just get dirty and set things on fire. Michelle is the one who creates the channel. Just keep on keepin' the boys in line young lady! 🤣🤣
Thank you Michelle ❤ I hope you know how much I (we ) appreciate the editing and hard work 👍🙏 well done to the racers and all support crew.
If a person hasn't had to take hours of raw video and assemble an entertaining 30 min video with good continuity and pace, then it's hard to actually fully appreciate Michelle's efforts.
@@randytolle6706 here here !! And you are spot on about the pacing, been saying that ever since I first viewed the channel.
Chads friendly wave when he passed that car 😂 that was hilarious! Then knowing how bad Paul is itching to drill one of those guys in the door 😅
heh, was thinking that, he must be fighting those Derby instincts all the time out there.
Great job on all fronts, fabricating, driving, filming and editing. It was really nice of that officer to let you off with a verbal warning. I'm sure you were as polite and respectful as usual and once you explained your situation, he understood. Nothing wrong with being put in your place once in a while. 75 mph with a trailer isn't outrageous but he was keeping everyone safe.
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!
Thanks for racing and thanks for letting us tag along!! One day, still dreaming!!
We all love Paul, Ben and the family but I think we all take for granted how hard Michelle works on editing and preparing the videos before they are uploaded as well as being a Mom. I think after the tow truck is done Paul should build her a sweet rock crawler.
I'm wondering what will become of that Jeepster they bought from the guy with the FJ.
Michelle's editing is world class. She captures what is important.
Let me add to all those who say Thank You Michelle! And thanks to Paul & Chad and all the rest that take the time to share their adventures with us.
Thanks for letting me know Im a lucky winner. I'm a Buddhist monk living in the South of France and don't own a phone to be able to text you. If it's possible, please reward someone who really deserves it. For me its pleasure enough to be able to watch your videos, in my quiet moments. Thanks again and my love to your whole family and team.
You should do Cleetus's Ranger Danger 5000!!
Gotta be invited. Cleetus needs to invite Paul, Matt, and Rudy
3.0 danger rangers open to the anybody as long as you can pass tech that's the reason why first and second place gets the invite to the crown Vic race
Yes this would be awesome!
@@mickosprey7696 I had no idea man, obviously. I also have a ranger with a cage…..🤔🤔🤔
Cleetus should do a 24 Hrs of Lemons race, get the UT teams down to FL, also Cleetus wants to do a demolition derby, Paul can teach him the ropes!!
YOU guys have easily become THE TOP 3 CHANNELS THAT I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING NEW CONTENT AS SOON AS ITS RELEASED!!! More specifically, you're my favorite CZcams channel when it comes to fabricating/automotive/on or off-roading. Your content ALWAYS puts a smile on my face - especially appreciate the bonus content of competitive racing/derby-ing that Paul, the boys, and friends enjoy partaking in as well as the off-roading and recovery footage!
4th place ain't bad for your " rookie " run ( next race will be way much more gooder ) . PS , don't forget to bring extra wheels
Paul needs a mt dew sponsorship for his McGuiver fix
Thank you, Michelle for staying up late. Thanks Paul and the rest of the family. Hi Ben, Hunter great job behind the camera.
Just here to tell the algorithm this is a great video. Thanks, Michelle, for your hard work. Thank you, Fab Rats and friends, for taking us along on your escapades.
I just wish you made videos all day every day lol I'm 62 disabled you live my dreams thanks for being you have a blessed day.
Morning everyone
Wow, 4th in your first team race is a win in my book! Next time you'll be more prepared, and with all the knowledge you share of building and fabricating you guys will be ready for the win! Thanks for the video Michelle you rock...
OMG Michelle is so amazing! Paul may be the charisma, but Michelle is the firecracker that makes this all possible! Love watching your channel from day one.
That looked like it was a blast!! Thanks Michelle and Paul and the rest of the fabrats family for the free gift with my cornet shirt!! You guys work so hard! Can't wait to see who wins the giveaway car!!! Awesome show as always!!
That looked like way too much fun!!Those old Crown Vics with the 4.6 are insanely tough!! Paul you should have shoved that little Miata out of the way lol
Thanks, Michelle, for staying up all night editing videos. Much appreciated.
A fun weekend with friends, doesn't get much better than that. Thanks folks.
It was great racing against you guys in Buttonwillow and nice meeting you in person Paul! Regards from Switzerland
Good morning RATS!
I was late!! BOBCAT in my backyard, Lookin' at him was awesome!
@@JanelleVocate-Ames Oh man! Heck yes I would have been watching him too !!
Thank you Michelle for being the best cinematographer ever👍🏿
Can you imagine having Bill pull up behind you in that car and flash some blue lights? Ha, you'd know you were done. Great video and great race. Thanks to all!
I know we ALL hit up Cleetus to get Paul in the last freedom 500 and he didnt listen to us. I dont watch Cleeters videos anymore just for that one reason. Fun to watch, thanks for bringin us along for the ride!
MICHELLE: The video production quality is getting crazy! Love to see this channel grow in every way...... and it has. My fav by far, and love you all for the lives you are living, and sharing....
That sure looked like a real good time. The whole crew done very well.
Rats, love rats, Fab Rats are the best. Furthermore, thank you Michelle.
This was a great different video, still love the fabing videos though. Still waiting on Michelle’s jeep though. Can’t wait to see wrecker competition. Michelle has my heart for all the work she does and the support she gives Paul. Hell of a woman, wife and partner. Thanks for all.
"On this episode of Fab Rats, we accidentally burn down the shop.." "Don't try this at home.." lol can't think of a better way to kick off my Birthday than a video from yall.
I was rooting hard for you guys. One of my favorite episodes. Michelle needs to drive one hour next year. She is as competitive as Paul. Next year we’ll be better!! When you win next year it’ll be the Fab Four!!
So stoked you all went to compete at the Lemons 24. Looked like a rad time! Seeing Paul fix the fuel issue with a can of Mt Dew; now that was so rad McGyver stuff! Congratulations to the awesome race team and pit crew!!
I had a Crown Vic once. I’m a ham radio operator, 1/4-wave mag mount on the roof, two more antennas on the trunk. I saw a NUMBER OF CARS dip their nose to the pavement as they approached.
Looks like a good showing for the first time out. Nice work by the whole team.
That car is passing everyone! Nice work boys looks like a good time
Rubbin's Racin'... thanks for taking us along!
Start a CZcams channel, they said.
Quit your jobs, they said.
It'll be easy, they said. 🤣
Great work by the team, and thanks for all your hard work Michelle!
Nice to see you guys having fun.Thanks Michelle for your hard work.
HAHAHA died laughing when Michelle went up to Paul @12:47 and said we got the island boys your competing with and automatically Paul zeroed in on em with the eye of the tiger 🐅 🤣. Beautiful editing and I would never imagine Paul getting pulled over. Paul is hilarious I must say. You guys are awesome lifetime fan here!
Michelle, we all don't say it enough, but you rock!
The 24 hrs of Lemons looks like an absolute blast!
Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
Loved the video weldone on the lemons 24 hrs. And grateful the officer only gave you a verbal warning being as close to home as you were. Great job all you fellas .
Having fun is more important than winning in this race, but if they did driver change a little faster, they'd save an hour! Still the Fab Rats team is the winner in my book! Michelle is doing a great job editing! I said it before and I'll say it again: editing videos is not as easy as many people think.
what a hoot, I enjoyed every bit of it, racer at heart.... and Michelle, thank you so much for getting the videos out
Loved every second of this video. I hope y’all do this again. Fun and memories make life beautiful. ❤️🙏👍👍🌟🏆🏆🏆🏆❤️
Great race ! Best part at the end when Paul said : “Got cherries and berries behind us.” When he got pulled over 😂😂😂 Never heard that term before, hilarious.
Passing tech inspection shows that you are a force to be reckoned with. Having your own chef is amazing! You even got to meet Nick! Mountain Dew sponsorship seems inevitable!!
This episode was an absolute riot to watch! Loved every bit of it. Michelle, You rock for the hard work you do! Was great seeing all the guys together working on and racing the car. Always love the get togethers!
I would love to see Paul race on the "Freedom 500" w/ @CletusMcFarland 😃👍
Keep up the good work Michelle 🦾
Multiple Lemons and chump racer here. Finishing at all your first time out is an accomplishment. Well done.
that was a lot of fun! Hope you guys return next year for another shot! p.s. Michelle we all appreciate you gettings these videos edited and uploaded! So In a way you are a big part of why were addicted like junkies just hitting refresh on the ole browser to see if you uploaded new content ;)
24 hour of Lemons is a definite bucket list item for me! Congratulations guys! That was great stuff!
Great job driving to Paul and all the other team Drivers, Support Crew and of course the Video Department (Michelle) ! All members of the team have that true "Racing" competitiveness. I do believe that Paul was bitten severely by the "Road Racing Bug". Hmmm... a 💪future there? I think he would be good at it, car builders understand the machine and make good drivers, plus he has the talent and the spirited competitiveness. I've seen professional drivers do a lot worse with better tires! Looking forward to the future whatever it becomes. Congrats Team !!!! 😀😀😀☝🏎🚓.
The arm in the window frame. Cracking me up! A hard habit to break. Good job guys.
First, thanks Michelle for all you do! Second, i want to buy a shirt but you are currently out of XL in the original Fab Rats hope they come in soon. Third, I have done my share of Lemons racing. Here in Michigan it is held at Gingerman raceway and is a blast. Our car had some transmission issues with third gear but we finished our first race with a bungee cord holding it in third. We also won the judges choice award. Great job guys and great videos.
Thank you Michelle for keeping those videos coming. And Guys, that was the most fun video EVER! Thanks so much
Looks like Paul got in a fight with a set of clippers...😂😂😂
HooWah!
That cop went back to his cruiser and looked up Fabrats and made the decision these are good people. 👍
Tired trying to get home.
This was a great video I'm glad to have gotten to see the fab rats side of the story Chad's fab side was just as good. Y'all at least learned some stuff for next year can't wait to see how far the fabrat fabrication police cruiser goes in the years to come! Glad y'all had fun really enjoyed seeing Paul, Chad, and the rest of the crew have so much fun at a lemons race!
Love all the Fab Rats videos, but THIS was so much fun to watch! Thanks for the entertainment and all the work, including editing and uploading video, that goes into it. Great job!
Hats off to Michelle for getting them videos out for us
Did Paul say he got 126 MPH out of a Crown Vic? Wow, I've driven lots of miles in those cars all the way back to when they were "Ford LTDs" and NONE of them would have been doing 126 MPH when they hit the ground if you'd dropped them out of an airplane at 10.000 feet! Well done!
Great video. Loved the change from strictly building stuff. Plus it was nice seeing Michelle in a lot of the video ❤
Man this was so Awesome and Hilarious Michelle you did good in the pits ..
People don't like hearing it when racing...but it is a "true fact" sometimes you simply need to slow down to go faster..! This was different, but really enjoyable to watch...! Cool beans..to you all..!
The best video editing ever, I could not have loved todays video, fun interaction, and great competition.
Thank you for taking us along for the ride.
@8:06 Thank you Michelle for you hard works so we can enjoy Fab Rats Videos
Me and my buddies have raced a couple of Champ Car endurance races and 4th place is no joke. With 4 fresh tires you would have been on the podium. Great video. Road racing is hella fun
Thanks Michelle for the great editing!!! Paul woooops the race looked fun
I was introduced to road racing at the early age of 7, Go Karting (1970).
Then did a bit of dirt rallying in the early 80's.
I had a BLAST...and would LOVE to be able to do it again
like I told Chad. That would be a total blast. Thank you Michelle for all you do to entertain us mortals
Awesome video and looked like ALOT of fun. Only comment I was gonna put out there, Paul covered. I think if a would have had the extra 2 tires would have made all the difference in the world. Awesome job by all the drivers and look forward to next years race. Stay safe......
Great job guys!!! Awesome video and editing. Thank you Michelle for all of your dedication and hard work!!!! Can't tell you how much I enjoy your channel 😃
Holy moly... just had a flash back... is it just me or does anyone else think Nick looks a lot like Gilbert Gottfried? LOL!! Love that car..sounds like a beast!! Definitely looked like a fun time.. Was fun to watch!!!
wow. a 4th in class B is awesome. and Judges choice to boot! that means you did two things well. 1) didn't demand any special anything despite being a CZcamsr and 2) bribed and schmoozed well. looking forward to the wrap up video featuring Mr. Pond and maybe the best line for a trophy "what did we lose?"
I think after a little success you need to prowl that collection of yours and resurrect a lemons special. we noticed Paul's eyes locking on that P34 Volvo and the wheels got going.
I'd like to see you race in one of Cletus McFarland races at the freedom factory. This weekend is ranger danger!! Really great work!!
That looks like a blast.
24 hrs of Lemons is something that I have been following for a few years. One of these years I want to be out there racing. I am glad you had a great time. Maybe someday I will see you out there on the track.
