Congratulations Garrett!
YEEEEEW!! youu gotta fly with Trent Palmer man!
Do rallyx think you would enjoy it.
wooooooOoOOoOOoOooOoOOoOOOOOOOoOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooo
He can literally drive anything, unreal
But he’s flying….not driving
Land sea nor air nothing can stop cleetus lol
Except a racing jet boat lol I kid I kid
Except the RTR mustang lol
@@shelbyGT40 driving through the air lol😂
This dude straight up took off, in his airplane, from his racetrack, with his pregnant and very beautiful and awesome wife, won the first race he’s ever competed in in that sport, and then was the most humble dude about it, all while being genuinely entertaining to watch. What an absolute class act.
With a fake name to dupe you.

Be it land, sea, or plane. This man has a first place trophy. Congrats on the win!🎉
He's the Marines of motorsports.
@@mrwilson7617 Oorah, brother!!!
What about SPACE? 👾
@@therealgrizzlyGonna have to get another Jet engine 👀
A certified champion, no matter the platform!
George has to be the best gas man ever. Impossible to not get fired up when that guy is excited
George is 💯 % best hype man
Perfect camera man he's like a proud papa
@Pikachu-cd5js Go catch some Pokémon. GTFO!
@@kuttinkuddy3905 You must have very low standards
Bringing George into the crew a few years back was such a great move. He just never fails to hype and entertain. The crew is so solid right now.
I agree!! George really appeals to the 9-15 year old crowd.
@@Dontdelete420is that an insult or what? He appeals to everyone. Maybe read the comments
@@Dontdelete420You sound like a creeper that likes those younger teens.
@@Dontdelete420 I'm 39 and love george, you sound like an uptight sob.
stealing george from jeremys crew was a solid move
Probably the only content creator that puts us in either the drivers seat, pilots seat, or the helm, and wins at whatever he does. Amazing and crazy entertaining! Thanks team Mcfarland !
Never ever would i have watched people racing planes but your passion and excitement makes it enjoyable! Love how excited George gets and congrats on the win.
George, Sam, Maddie, and everyone else, Cleetus has surrounded himself with some of the best people who make this so enjoyable to watch, they're all down for anything with high spirits no matter what happens.
Cheers to George as well for being a real bro and being so excited and passionate for a victory. The love is real from him.
Very well said 😊
Love him
George is the freaking man. Lucky to have a friend like that. What a group overall really.. Good things.
oyeah when he's hyped I get the feels
Definitely traded up from cooper
"From turbo whistles to airplane racing" man this hit hard. Y'all have come a long way. And props (lol) to George for his filming skills perfect framing that entire time.
Right? Years ago he was shoving as many turbo whistles into his corvette exhaust as he could, now he's winning airplane competitions.
He should seriously consider some kind of public office for Florida. He cares about people
@nukeddogger86 I was getting ready to leave nearly the exact comment
Been following him since that turbo whistlers on his Corvette and now look at this, what an inspiration he is
Maddie did such a good job as well.
You know Sam's praying for you every time you get in that plane brother, look at that hug, he loves you cleet
He does indeed,, Sam LOVES all of the Freedom Factory Race Team as well as all the FFR fans. Sam's Golden!
Dude every time I see Sam in a video I think about him starting off as just being his neighbor to hanging with Cletus everyday after retirement living it up and it brings me so much joy just watching.
He flys pretty damn recklessly so I can see why
@@flacooveliii7441 I feel you on this. old but gold
I cant say enough about George, absolute legend and never disappoints with his genuine excitement
My favorite part of everything he does is he brings Sam with him. Much respect for that.
Sam is an OG.
Cleet purposely smudging the giant trophy with his fingerprints while "apologising' to Sam with a giant smile was so sweet :)
Sam gunna have that thing so polished up you'll see it from the ISS!
yeah, that made me laugh.
This man is so ridiculously talented it’s insane…. Like honestly amazes me how good he is at any type of racing.
That is some serious talent, you can tell Cleeter has worked his butt off to understand the dynamics of his plane. Congrats on your debut victory!
George's positivity fires me up. What a great friend to have
Had a friend like that, turned out to be a terrible friend lol
@@chaseself5420lolz ya fruit
Would love to see this guy try underwater basket weaving
i think youve made that up
@@Junkers024Doesn't matter, Cleet will try to win it either way 😅
@@Junkers024 Rutgers College offered that as a class years ago
i say alligator wrestling, lets se him win that
@bassbustingman he's a Florida man. Literally has one in his backyard. He would be a champion gator wrestler
Been here from day one and i cant believe how this man can just race anything, absolutely amazing!
Why did I get chills watching you get that 491 score?! I swear it's been such an amazing ride from back when you worked at 1320video til now flying and winning airplane races? All I can say is you've done DALE more than proud. You can drive freaking anything! Except sxs lol
So many victories In so many motorsports dude you're a part of racing history at this point
Our Man can wheel!!
He’s gonna be the first person ever to be inducted into the nascar hall of fame without ever stepping foot in one on a track 😂
They joke about a Museum, But it's gonna happen. 🤘😁
@j.rowland3488 just a matter of time before he's a backup driver 😂
@@SlaterGator The Busa'Cart was first, Wheelie Fiero is #2. Who's number three? The 24hr Vic? xD
I just want to take a moment to appreciate the fact that he was presenting to us while still concentrating hard, and literally working up a sweat while trying not to dump the plane into the trees. He took a W while walking us through what he was doing up there. That takes some extreme talent and skill. Well freaking done, can't wait for the next one!
this tho
See Garrett It all paid off Thanks to Your Determination and Practice Practice Practice, You are an Awesome Disciplined Human !! Don't Stop !!! 😎👍🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️ Rrrrrrrrrrr--R !!! R !!
Actually hes just thinking out loud probably helps alot
Maddie is a trooper. Glad to see her back on the channel. Congrats on the pregnancy.
Congrats on the win as well Cleet. Great flying.
From one father to another, your mindset of you can do anything you set your mind to, inspires me in ways I can't even describe. This exist as motivation to many people that nothing is out of reach. Your content supersedes entertainment into something akin to a tedtalk.
The way you guys include Sam in everything. Guys living his best life. Congrats on the win, way to celebrate with Sam.
when i think about how they all met sam and how there realtionship has developed with the whole team it actully makes me emotional!!! such an amazing story!
going to have a mirror finish on that trophy.
Sam was smiling every time I seen him. When I got to say hi, he seemed very grateful to be included and absolutely said he was living the dream! That was one happy looking man out there yesterday, and it was great just to shake the man's hand. Such a good group of folks and I was super lucky they came within a very reasonable drive from my house. I basically live an hour practically straight north of here. (as straight as you can drive through the Ozarks. The roads you've seen in the clips have been excellently representative of what a lot of the 2 lane highways look like through our section of the Ozarks, great fun if you love some twisties)
I’ve been watching a long time, but can’t recall the episode that Sam first appeared. Anyone know? I’d like to go back and watch it.
@@stephenlea5765 I have a vague memory of it but no idea which one!!!
How the hell did he come out first time and win the damn thing. Absolute talent in any type of racing. Congrats Cletus baddass brother.
Well he can also jump into a professional auto race and (almost) win the whole damn thing. Its pure raw talent.
Does the same with boat racing. True wheel and now stick man.
I was posted up at driftwood, it was beautiful to watch him just absolutely nail it!
because he makes so much money he can afford the best of everything.. really its just pay to win at this point.
@@max16 this particular one I'm not sure that's really possible. There were a lot of folks in that class and there were many nice airplanes.
Some racing disciplines I understand the sentiment you shared, I don't particularly share it, but I cannot deny that it's a relevant point in some instances.
I have been watching CZcams content pretty much since its inception. I have watched thousands of hours of content over the years. I can wholeheartedly say Cleetus is the only channel I watch as soon as I get the chance, and it is the only channel I have watched every single video on since I discovered it six years ago. I was so fired up when you released the track promo video, bringing a whole new level of content. I mean with cars, aviation, and marine, even on the other end of the scale with RC boats, planes, and cars. It doesn't matter what content you make; you somehow manage to make it interesting and entertaining. I know chances are you'll never see this, but thanks for all the content and keep up the good work.
I teared up! Sooooo proud of you and your crew!!!! Been following since day, seeing you grow and everything you have achieved makes me super happy.
🇺🇸🦅🏁
As a LSA Pilot my hats off to you Cleetus. I know some of those guys. To win as a Rookie is a huge accomplishment. Congratulations. 🇺🇸🦅🏁💸
Congrats to you, your wife, and your team. Amazing!
It generally means taking risks. He’s a low hour pilot. He’s crashed pretty much everything else. When he stalls it and noses it into the dirt there won’t be a redo.

Can't imagine the next few years
@@johnblevins3It’s evolving like a Fast and Furious movie. Next year Cleetus will post a video saying “hey guys, I’ve been keeping this quiet, but I’m going to space.”

Garrett is gifted in everything he races! And if he fails he learns and perseveres the next time out!
I love George from the bottom of my heart. If George can't get you excited no one can, best hype man on this planet
Nobody has said this yet but the eyes he’s bringing to the different varieties of Motorsport is so awesome! Land, sea, and air!! Congratulations to you all over there,!
Hes single-handedly breathing life into American motorsports. Everywhere he's gone, people cheer for him, and if he returns the following year, the turnout is huge. He's what our hobby needed.
@@octane613 yes you are bang on!!
Im laughing at all the people sitting calm and cool while Cleet and George hooting and hollering giving high 5s😂😂
That's are boys. Hell yeah Brother
they're just mad that whoever they came to watch lost to a giraffe
totally normal, ive never seen the 2nd place team hoot n holler after they just lost the game either...lol
@@Sam97979😂😂😂
People that fly generally are not as fired up as ol' Cleet, pilots are pretty calm cool and collected. Being excitable isn't good for flying, you fly calm in good weather and the same in bad weather, like an icecube. That's how you survive to fly again. So much more to flying a private plane than folks realize. Personally, I would never fly myself or my pregnant wife in a cub for 9 hours. Cubs are fragile at the best of times. Cleet needs to recognize that, and with a kid already, no two parents in a plane or helicopter. Never. It's how a whole family goes bye bye.
Truly fabulous Cleetus & crew. Amazing win and well deserved. Loved seeing Sam there, that hug, I'm sure he see's you as a virtual Grandson.
The tower talking to you and the crowd getting in to the Cleetus vibe was brilliant. Congratulations all round. Tally ho & chocks away. Pip pip.
*_Such a beautiful plane!🛩_*
This is so damn impressive.. First sprint Jet Boats first try, a wheel off the ground away from a stadium super truck win and now a plane comp win on the first try.. Its insane. Now it's time to go dominate drag season again. Can't wait to see mullets new hair cut
Business up front.
My dude he just keeps it going. air land and sea.
@@naicella Only thing left now is space. First one to the moon and back wins!
Cleetus is the epitome of “you’re capable of anything you put your mind to” so freaking awesome!
Dude has the confidence to rule the world. I wish
Old Cleet literally doing a Scandinavian Flick with a freaking plane!😂 loved it!
I'm gonna go out in a limb here and say that there are probably very few people who have trophies for land, water AND air races. Let alone how many people jump into a motorsport and immediately kick ass like you do. You're an impressive human being dude. Thank you so much for everything you do. These last 6-7 years or however long it's been since the og cleetus video have been an amazing ride and I can't wait to see what the future holds for you. You truly are an inspiration and watching your channel all this time has filled a hole I have in my life. But it's getting bigger and I think this spring I'm gonna have to make some major changes to my life so I can get back in the hobby. I need a project lol. It's been too long since I've touched a welder or grinder or turned a wrench that wasn't just keeping my daily going you know? A welder, a 2 seater and a bunch of tube is all I need now 👍
Hell yeah brother!
Mira Slovak is probably the closest
He's won it all boys. Cars, marine, and aviation. Cleetus is a beast!!!! Shout-out the whole team. Y'all are amazing
man needs a space-race to win now
Your mind is incredible. Anything you get in, you can drive. You’re an inspiration to so many people including myself.
Thanks brother!!
@@CleetusM- Smartest move you ever made was walking away from law school brother.
@@danmyers9372nah depending on how long he was there it may have helped him in the business world.
Congratulations ! That was great , very impressive. many , many thanks for that one.
He'll yeah Brother!!! Awesome!!! Congratulations dude!!!
Anyone else remember the guys that gave Cleet a ride in their planes during drag week a few years back? Man he's come a long ways in a short while.
21:48 “from exhaust whistles to airplane races” been here through it all brother! 🖤
Amazing bro! Great job. I fly a Carbon Cub myself and what you're doing takes lots of practice! Keep it up and be safe!
What a pleasure to watch… Many more for the team.. Be safe & blue Sky’s..
Mike is one heck of gentleman
And George is about the most unbelievable best friend a guy could ask for. He was shaking and fired up more than anyone!
LOL.. You must have very low standards
As a Pilot myself I can say this is one of the hardest things to do in an airplane this was not only entertaining but a pleasure to watch Cleet fly this thing like it was stolen that first landing it was just insane in this stock carbon cub is hard to achieve guys ... I mean i just have mad respect for the whole Cleetus Mcfarland Crew what a journey brother ... i have dreams where i am doing exactly this and i really appreciate you showing us how is like ... Thank You Brother ... and the aviation people saying let me get a HELL YEAH was NUTS !!! i mean ... wow ... EPIC VIDEO MY FAVORITE EVER !!!
Shoot, I couldn't do it in my plane
Absolutly amazing, had a smile on my face the whole video!! Great job!! Congrats!!
Honestly, I never thought id ever be watching plane content on my favorite drag racing channel and LOVING IT! Im here for it!!!
The fact that you flew 9 hours back home today, and then edited and uploaded this video by6:00pm is quite the achievment! Along with the rookie "W".
This! Much appreciated.
It’s amazing how we can get so involved and be pulling for our boy Cleet and feel like a part of the team! Cleetus, we appreciate you brother! Bringing us some wholesome entertainment in a busy world!! God bless my friend!
We are a part of the team good wishes creating a Butterfly Effect.
Blowing up giant ballons with boost and the exhaust whistles were the first vids i ever watched in your old little driveway and the vids only ever got better and cleeter hasnt changed always done it to raise hell and praise dale
Hell yeah brother!! Great flying... congratulations on the win!!!
This is just absolutely unbelievable. Garret is proof that if you put in the work you can be good at everything you want to be. Always so stoked to see aviation on the channel.
The containment of excitement was insane!! Who thought slowly going fast was this intense!! HELL YEAH BROTHER!!!!
Fast is smooth,
Smooth is fast.
Aim small, miss small. We got a WIN!
You should see it in person! It's AMAZING
@@tobycatVA think you mean "slow is smooth, smooth is fast," at least that's how I've always heard it
First Congratulations to you and Maddie on your second child!!
HELL YEA BROTHER Great Run 491 for The Win Congratulations!!
Living The Dream!!
Awesome job. Great personality Cletus 🎉
I can't get enough of the crew. The entire freedom factory group is just good people. Everyone has such a good time and you can tell everyone is best friends. We need more of this in the world.
Brother is so gifted. And glad he can realize the stakes in this kind of sport and stays within his limits with the right training. HELL YEAH BROTHER
Hell yeah brother. I'm glad someone is keeping racing alive. It kills me watching all the tracks that closed. A piece of my childhood I'll never get to show my kids. Great job brother
HELL YA BROTHER... Congrats Cleetus, That's how you come in and show those pros, Congrats again brother.
Got to watch Cleeter live at ArkanSTOL. IT WAS EPIC! First race ever, it's near where I live, and he wins his class. Absolutely phenomenal! Also, I got to hang out and take some pics. Great experience that I'll remember for years to come!
Cleet! You’re a natural at anything with a motor in it! Congratulations 🎉
he's an 11 years younger Travis Pastrana...
Wait a Minute. Is this my Brother Ryan Williams or another one? Was just saying that same thing. Guys a Natural.
@@joshwilliams9248 lol I’m a different one.
Dang!! So much freakin excitement in this and the last video!! Had my heart pounding!! Love it! Congrats on the win Cleetus!
So happy for you man. Amazing talent for whatever you do. Well done.
So epic! Congratulations guys and a massive shoutout to Maddie. She is so supportive of everything Cleetus does.
Every guy needs a woman like that in their life.
George made one of the best decision of his life taking that ONE week off to do that drag and drive race with you guys. That one thing that started off so stressful ended up setting his life on the wildest fun trajectory! Sometimes you just gotta have fun!
ABSOLUTELY THIS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What was that saying from FasterProms???
Adapt and Overcome 👍
Right! Looking back at that, it was arguably an irresponsible decision on George's part at the time but holy shit it had to have been one of the best decisions of his life
By any chance do you know the video where George took time off for drag and drive? I've looked for it but not sure where it is.
@@pastaalalamborghinithat right there proves that keeping your word pays off in the long run even if it hurts you in the moment
Your welcome brother. Hell yea. Your team is incredible an so supportive ❤️.
Congratulations Cleetus on some fantastic flying skills.
Also congratulations on your new family arriving.
Looking forward to your next adventure video.
Hell Ya brother.
Cheers
Can we all give Cleetus a big hell yeah brother for all he does for these smaller sports and clubs that most likely don't get a lot of attention. Thank you Cleetus and crew.
Don't know why I get so emotional over cleets videos... well done. HELL YEA BROTHER 🇺🇸
Congratulations and thank you for the inspiration.
Carbon Cub upgrades in 5-4-3-2-1!!!!! Hell yeah brother. Congratulations to the whole crew.
Two things. Love how you and you’re great team broaden the scope of racing to your audience. Second. As a retired film maker, George is an excellent camera operator. I hate wobbly cam and George, except when he gets excited, records great smooth shots that I totally enjoy watching. Excellent team!
Same here, And honestly The minor things makes it still feel like live action filmed by hand. Outstanding content
George has come a long way in his filming. But we're here for his commentary!
My wife who doesn't watch asked me halfway thru is he flying a plane?? I said hunny you put this man in anything and he'll put it to work.. I'm always amazed at what this man has turned into from what he was.. also George is the best damn wingman a guy could ask for.. his excitement levels you can tell are genuine and real.. awesome video and congrats on the win 🏆
Congratulations man.. love the flying videos!
Congratulations what a talented and humble guy
I wish we could see Mike Patey's reaction to this win. He must feel like a real proud big brother!
Nice to see how humble Cleetus is and his shout out to everyone. I was excited to hear Mike helped hook Cleet up in his Cub. Like to see them flying and maybe even Trent in a video in the future.
Legend! Brilliant job guys 👍
Love it, from exhaust whistles to aeroplane races. And I'm happy to have been here since the start. Keep it up!
You are the only channel that gives me goosebumps like I am there. You have no idea how much for guys like me it's needed. Thank you
Is there anything this man can't do? Congratulations Garrett! You've got a great team behind you.
@@danielvarela8443 heyyyyy - o
Holy crap man good job! Much respect!
Congratulations to Cleetus and the crew. Dude! You're a born bird man.Way to Captain that Cub to one heck of an awesome win.
Being thankful to the fans for being able to do this is truly why we watch brother! Don't ever change!!
He really means it too, he was damn near tearing up! What an absolute legend!
I love the way Cleetus talked us through the whole ride and how everything with him is a team effort , such a humble guy 💯
Congrats man. So exciting!
Great stuff mate! You got real talent and it’s great seeing you competeing in all different machines
I'm not afraid to admit I got a little teary-eyed there at the end, well done, son.
Your skill at operating anything with an engine is truly amazing, you are fast becoming one of the most accomplished multi-discipline drivers out there.
What helps is ther amazing team you have behind you from your wonderful wife and your sidekick George (everyone needs a sidekick like George) to Jimmy and all the others back at the shop. You are fortunate to have them by your side.
From drifting cars, to drifting boats, NOW.. he's drifting airplanes. What a ripper. Also him smearing fingerprints on the trophy to get Sams reaction was hilarious.
Phenomenal job Cleet! What a beautiful place to compete (and win) in!
That was thoroughly enjoyable to watch!! Well done........so much fun and excitement!
This content is GREAT! I never thought that i would enjoy something like this so much. Thank You Cleetus and Thx you George for the great camera work!
You’re such an inspiration, whole heartedly mean that. The world needs more people like cleetus and the crew.
Congratulations!! Well done!
Cletus!!! You the MAN!! What a great job and especially for your FIRST competition.
