Had a great time in my Rx8. I ran great in the first round, then after that i couldnt find 3rd gear the rest of the night. But ill be back out next time and try to do better 🙂
So much action sorry I didn't catch more of your spin. You and your truck were very impressive - definitely a crowd favorite. Hope to see you out there again. You earned a subscription from me . Appreciate ya!
When I was stock car racing it was common for the spectator race to be held in clockwise direction but the promoter would change the direction right up to the start of the feature, minimized people setting cars up just for counter clockwise.
I've seen that done at other tracks but I don't think they can do it at New Smyrna because of the opening in the wall in turn 4 . I like the idea though. Appreciate ya Peter
Hardbody Santiago told me he's in the works for getting new wheels and tires on his truck but he's unsure if he will have them in time for the upcoming Spectator Races this coming Saturday. You can follow his build on his You Tube channel- his truck is impressive. Much appreciated Extreme.
@@FloridaManRacingChannel Thats a mean truck with stock internals running E85. I like original builds a lot. Seems like there's just too much cookie cutter stuff today.
extremedrivr agreed. Santiago has done a lot with a truck not too many people build and has done extremely well without breaking the bank. Going to be fun to watch progress on his bulld and the results at the tracks.
I'm unsure what they will allow and will not , seems to be a few "purpose built" spectator cars being driven at different tracks so it doesn't seem like they are very strict with rules. Much appreciated Brian
@@FloridaManRacingChannel No problem, glad to educate. Oval racing has a long history of gross exaggeration, it's comical they even exaggerate the number of turns. /s
Such a relief from the trailer park empting antics of the Identical bill boards that NASCAR has to offer these days. This "run what you brung" is all about! So happy that Madison Avenue has no voice in Spectator Drags!
I really enjoy it , you never know what cars are going to show up and it's always entertaining- becoming very popular these last few years . Much appreciated halmc8109.
Excellent job filming. No stupid comments just sit and watch the races the way it should be. Thanks for posting.
Glad you like my no nonsense uploads. Much appreciated Bob.
The white Mustang with the decals, fins, scoops and wing is what’s referred to as all hat, no cattle. LMFAO
Have also heard “a lot of feathers and no chicken”
8:35 there is NO WAY that silver Mazda beat that black Mustang to the line....slowed it down and watched it multiple times....the Mustang CLEARLY won.
I feel like I lost. Oh well. That was my mistake
I agree completely

whats mods are on the rx8?
Looks like a lot of fun , hope to see you back soon. Appreciate ya
@@bassettjj LS/T56 swap, LS9 cam & FBO.
@@circlelt1 Oh ok, makes sense. Thanks.
@@circlelt1lmao I thought that shit still had the rotary. I was like that mustang was embarrassing… your mods def make sense haha
Man, I'd rather watch this over formula 1, this was great, thank you New Smyrna speedway and Florida man racing channel.
Much appreciated Every
The ending was heart pounding. Watching Casey in his heavily modified sn95 against I think a gt350R
Was a great race all around- explains the number of views the video got. Appreciate ya Scott
I was the GT350 driver. Tires were absolutely shot lol was spinning coming out of each corner. Great fun, great battle!
Most fun you can have with your clothes on ! What a bargain !!!🤣
Lmao, appreciate ya Don
Casey Hawthorne needs a sponsor. Ol boy can drive.
No doubt. Made for some great racing action that night. Appreciate ya
If you are going to build a truck with that much power, you should probably put some drag radials on it. DDD
Oh man I can't wait to see one of these in person!
One scheduled for June 24th if you're in the New Smyrna area. Appreciate ya
Awesome racing!
Thanks for watching. Much appreciated John
That was alot of fun, but also very nerve wrecking!!! I will be back for sure
I had a good time just watching. Appreciate ya
Glad You’re Back! I hope all is well and/or better. thanks for bringing us along, FL Man.
Much appreciated Clegg! Trying to sneak out for a few local events, hope to make it to Formula Drift Orlando Friday- stay tuned...
About as exciting as watching grass grow.
I love that Volvo PV544 !❤ My father owned two of them back in the mid 60's when I was a kid.
I think I have video of that car on a dyno at VMP a few years back if you look. Much appreciated Harley

As soon as I saw Casey in his first run i'm like, "yep... he's a circle track driver for sure"
He's definitely got some experience on an oval- helluva driver.. Much appreciated
Been going to that track for thirty years, this event is by far the best.
I have to agree with you there. Appreciate ya FullBlown
Omg You didn't cashed my truck on time when I was spinning out😬 Does anybody here has that video good video by the way 💪
When the corvette spun out everybody was looking at the corvette and then I spun out 😔 all good

@Florida Man Racing Channel thanks buddy he'll yeaa I try to do beter nex time💪
Subscribe let me know wen thers any spectator drags in fl I try to go every one
Dude you're an animal! Very impressed.
Good , Clean , Fun .
Agreed. Appreciate ya Jim
I don't know about clean.... I got hit lol
Happy to see you back
Good to be back. Much appreciated.
I wouldn't risk a classic Corvette
I had that same thought. Appreciate ya David
The only car I saw that I would risk was the 4-door
Was a bunch of nice cars indeed. Much appreciated Mike
Chicken
Feel free to bring your Civic out and join the fun next time Clint. Appreciate ya.
The car on the inside is always going to have the advantage
The sn95 wins it all!!
Just that mean the fans can race that if they wanted

That was awsome!
Much appreciated
I'd still give the win to the SN-95, he was whooping on them all until those cars spun out.
‘64 Volvo looks like a ‘48 Ford haha
Definitely looking like a relic😄much appreciated
Old school stock car racing...kinda. Reminds me of when I ran amateur sports car races....the "modified" money usually wins
Very entertaining to watch. Much appreciated Theo
Think the black mustang was cheated based on the camera
I don't think so. It shouldn't have been that close to begin with. I was feeling out the track. Was the perfect time for an upset honeslty
That SN95 was no slouch but man that Nissan Truck didn't have the grip at high speeds.

@@FloridaManRacingChannel Yeah I love racing just never raced myself.
extremedrivr I've dabbled a bit with the two mustangs I've owned but I prefer to watch whenever possible.

Announcer sounds like Sam Kinison "Oh Oh Oh".
Lmao Thanks Philip
Is tire stagger allowed?
I'm unsure what they will allow and will not , seems to be a few "purpose built" spectator cars being driven at different tracks so it doesn't seem like they are very strict with rules. Much appreciated Brian
That was better than the race cars
Was a really good race, the number of views this is getting proves that. Appreciate ya Scot
Absolutely robbed that black Mustang when they had to line back up.😠
Word has it the announcer still can't read
the fact that the rx8 even came close to winning that race against the mustang is just depressing
The RX 8 is an LS swap, very impressive actually. Much appreciated.
I made a mistake, I own it. Won when it counted though
Risk wrecking your car for only $100
Looks like fun but not worth risking my car either. Appreciate ya Jerry
ATTENTION: Ovals only have 2 turns... not 4.
Perhaps it's the numbers 3 and 4 painted on the wall in " turn 2 " that confuse people. Much appreciated for the clarification Krusty.
@@FloridaManRacingChannel No problem, glad to educate. Oval racing has a long history of gross exaggeration, it's comical they even exaggerate the number of turns. /s
'46 not '64.
I'd definitely looks older than a '64 . Much appreciated Mark
1964... Volvo PV544.. they were based on a 46-48 Ford 2 door sedan... My car..lol. wheels, brakes, same thing as Ford or Dodge of similar year.
The MAZDA RX8 didn’t WIN!
Oh well
Brilliant camera work. NOT!!!
Brilliant comment 👏🏻
If Hawthorn was in some POS Camaro everyone would be peeing themselves.
If it hadn't been for bozo's spinning out, Kasey would have won by far.
I agree he's a talented driver, hope he makes it to the upcoming race this coming Saturday- should be another great one.Much appreciated Daniel
mazda didn't beat the black mustang
It was very close indeed. It shouldn't have been that close though
2 out of 3 next time?
@@FloridaManRacingChannel sounds good to me!
@THEDriverMod_ car looks great in green btw.
@FloridaManRacingChannel thank you!
Such a relief from the trailer park empting antics of the Identical bill boards that NASCAR has to offer these days. This "run what you brung" is all about! So happy that Madison Avenue has no voice in Spectator Drags!
I really enjoy it , you never know what cars are going to show up and it's always entertaining- becoming very popular these last few years . Much appreciated halmc8109.
100 dollars for five lap win what a joke.
It was more about having fun
