you cant help but be excited for this while listening to Cletus' voice as the FF opens. congrats dudes!!
You gotta get blasphemi out their next time and ripp her Finn!
Yep I’m excited for him can’t wait to make my way down from Chattanooga
100% agree
I actually had a some weird sinus problems and my eyes are now wet. It’s beautiful... 🇺🇸🦅
“If you build it, they will come!”
Totally true making money and public was in hell yeah
Congratulations on all your successes with the Freedom Factory. That hard work is really paying off. You’ve built something special. I can’t wait to see where this goes in the future. Wish I could have been there for the opening.
got some chills mate seeing all the people there, really amazing things they had done since the beginning of purchase. Gotta fly over there for sure, cheers
whats up man fancy meeting you here
I didn't expect LPL on a Cleetus vid, dang.
Had no idea you were a fan of cleets, love your work exposing the half-assed lock makers, false promises, and shoddy locksmiths. You keep it up aswell man.
but can u pick the FF??
I grew up in this area. Last time I was on that track I was 17. I’ve always missed it. My dad and uncles raced there. I’ve been a long time cletus fan and when I heard he bought it I thought about moving back to Florida as I’ve relocated to Washington state some years ago.
But work and family prevents that move but I did fly my ass from Washington state to Florida to go this event and let me tell you driving up to the tank brought back tons of memories I even had to hold back some tears. I wish my dad was still around as he would have loved seeing the track againI had a blast. Thank you cletus and family for what your doing and what you have done. I will be back again for another event.
I'm ready to leave WA for some freedom in FL...
i had to hold back some tears thinking about your story man, that deserves a HELL YEAH BROTHERRR lol. Much love amigo
hell of a commute
@@jlhighfield9116 just getting out of washington probably takes him 3 hours the rest of the drive to florida is cake
Reason why people respect your facility is because we feel like your a friend from all the uploads and updates you provide so it makes you feel like you actually are invested into the track I no people who bought shirts or in some other way contributed even how ever so small.
I hope you all the best and I love your channel
I hope you and the guys had time to sit back and take everything in once the dust had settled. Giving that place life and getting people excited about it is a hell of a job, and one that a lot of people wouldn't have taken on.
Enjoy this victory, you all deserve it.
Henlo, Jimmer! Congrats on the Praga seat, dude!
pls no punterino Jimmer! Love from the U.S.!
Yo Jimmy!
Here Here, well said, great stuff.
Jimmy's here! I guess this means we'll be seeing you at FF in due course, heckin heck yeah Jimmer
Sheds single tear ... we watched this baby grow from a weed invested abandoned track to the greatest automotive facility on earth , and by gawd I can’t wait to see what the future holds
Balling my eyes out. "Not a single piece of trash" Hell yeah brotha!
Cleetus buys a road course.
@@1320crusier anything is a road course if you’re brave enough
I live in tampa and have been watching these videos for months. Was so pumped to join the fund raiser and now to see what these guys did. Hell ya, brother! It's time for a pilgrimage and I drive a stupid Corolla!
I remember when he was just playing around with taking body panels off a c5 corvette asking everyone to post, what they wanted to name it. Leroy was the obvious answer!
“Alright you guys can’t be up here tal....”
Cleetus: “YOU GOT THE HELL YEAH SPECIAL”
Idk why that guy would say that in that asshole of a tone to the owner of the place lmao
@@xxxpkersxxx because he probably didn't realize the owner was with them and he was just doing his job.
@@xxxpkersxxx he was recording right before he said that.... almost as if he was joking around with them...
I think it was meant in fun not in a asshole way. But hey there is a ass for every seat so I can understand how jokes or sarcasm can be missed by people like Greg Webb
I'm pretty sure that was Nick Savage talking. He was just joking. It sounds just like him and you can see that he waits for Cleetus to get done talking to Emilio.
Everyone wants the "good ol days" of car meets to come back. Cleetus said fuck that, I'll bring em back myself. What a vibe man! Love to see it
When your girlfriend thinks you're taking her out for a romantic valentines day dinner at a fancy restaurant, but you're just planning on ordering a couple hell yeah brother specials.
🤣🤣🤣
Hell yeah brother. Great 💡.
Sounds like a hell of a fancy Valentine’s Day dinner to me. Hell yeah brother
Absolutely the best kind of date!

“Every person here acted like they were invested in this track as much as we were” Yup, because we watched the whole process from the start, we feel like we are a part of the process. I wasn’t there for this event, I live 900 miles away. but I will be as we head south every year on vacation. I wish I was there, looked like an awesome mix of cars and trucks from all over. I do have my jar of track on my trophy shelf though.
czcams.com/video/pq-Qs-n6Vek/video.html :)
I couldn’t agree more you put it how i would have said it. And Same here dude.
whole heartedly agree.
I agree here too. 850 miles away and I really wish I could've been there. Motor in my truck is blown anyway. XD
We also financed the build. We bring Cleet the views which brings him the money.
Who the hell was cutting up onions while I watched the video?!?!?!
You guys renew my faith in humanity.
To all the Freedom Factory guys. I came across your video of opening night by chance, I am a Nascar fan from the old school days. I live in Riverside California, and you may know that back then the ( Winston Cup Series ) came to Riverside Raceway twice a year. They were my 2 most favorite days of the year, and actually they were 4 days to us who enjoyed camping in the infield... Sleeping in the back of my 1969 Chevrolet pick up truck. Anyway when they tore down the track it was a huge ordeal for me and sadly closed a chapter of my life. Since then I have always been interested in watching videos on abandon race tracks, that is how I clicked on to yours. But let me tell you I am so impressed with what you have done and the passion you have for your track. I can not count how many times I smiled at your joy of opening night. That would of been awesome to be a part of that and I am positive it was a great time for all that was there. Congratulations on your achievements. Inspiring to say the least. I am going to try to visit the Freedom Factory one of these days. Way to go ! Brian Petereit Riverside California.
Cleetus, I’m 75 years old and I live in Washington State. When I was 72 I flew back to Maryland for the call-out drags and met you and a whole bunch of other CZcamsrs. I was so impressed with how genuine you all were. Now I have put going to see the Freedom Factory and you and your crew at the top of my bucket list. Somehow I will make it happen.
I wish you the best of luck in making it to the the freedom factory, Larry!
I would like to know what airport to fly into and what town is the The Freedom Factory close to when I am ready.
@@larrymez4622 The nearest major airport is Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport and is only 40 minutes drive from the FF.
There's a few good looking hotels en-route between the airport and the FF on the crossing of highway 75 and E State Rd 70 👍
@@jasongaunt Thanks so much, Jason. I really appreciate it.
@@larrymez4622 HELL YEA BROTHER!!
am i the only one that got a little emotional in the last 2-3 minutes of this video? cleetus is an amazing human and is making a lot of people's dreams come true, and the respect that's shown both ways is incredible. FF is on my bucket list to visit one day...
You're definitely not the only one.
Yeah, definitely not the obly one.
They had me when they brought the beer truck in...
I could literally feel the positive energy through this video. Definitely want to see the FF someday hopefully! When I see stuff like this, I think there may be some good left in this world after all
I think its now no 1 on my bucket list!
It's nice to see a dude that cares so much about every aspect of his business and the product he's putting out. Well done, Cleeter...
The first "the" is to emphasize that you're at the original The Freedom Factory
Now that's a man that truly loves what he does....and appreciates everyone that helped him do it!! Congrats to you my man!
hear hear sir...
Livin the life. Good for him. He's earned it.
Every anniversary just add another "the" to the sign. maybe a "the" sticker or something.
9Jeremiah9 Thinking out of the box and why not hopefully there will be at least 25 THEs
Brilliant
Can put another the'' now so that it's like an ad or wrestling announcement.
James: “ ahh man where’s the Busch light” 😂😂 hell yeah
You know you're in Florida when a guy operating a hydraulic saw 1 foot from his face isn't wearing safety glasses
The only rule in Florida is "there are no rules in Florida."
Safety glasses, you mean eye lids?
He is breathing that crap too
🤣🤣
no glasses and no mask to protect your lung from the cement dust
Guy busts his ass, actually putting in the work on his own joint, gotta give him props
Massive props to Cleetus putting in the hard work .... and his team of guys, respect
Florida man busts his ass.... :)
Yep, he could sit on his money and hire people to do all the dirty work like most youtubers do, but you can see he's gonna do the most labor as he possibly can no matter what.
@@MrArcticPOWER he has paid pros on scene and still trys to get into all the action. Legit
Awesome point...
I live 5 min from this track, and I haven’t set foot on these grounds since I was 15. Walking through the gates was nostalgic, I don’t think the people watching who don’t live around here understand how much this means to us locals
thats awesome man wish we had more tracks and a car scene in ohio
This is why I’m subbed to cleetus now. The man is doing things to benefit his small community. Wish more CZcamsrs would use their opportunities to do this.
yeah this is super awesome that it has come full circle again!!!
I know exactly what you mean, here where I live we used to have a dirt track that my dad used to take me on saturdays to watch sprint cars race, I would love to be able to go to that track again.
Meanwhile every cart track in a 200k radius suited for real cart racing closes around me.
You should name that two dog + drink deal the “freedom ain’t free” deal. 🤣🤣🤣
I loved this video as much as the first time I watched it 3 years ago!!!! Congratulations to the freedom crew!!!!
Watching Garrett get a little emotional over his first public event at THE FREEDOM FACTORY almost brought a tear to my eye as well. It’s been so sweet watching her come from abandoned forgotten place to the best thing CZcams has ever seen 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You got it wrong man, it's THE THE FREEDOM FACTORY.
Hell yeah Brother!
@@HayesTransport ha ha oh ya 👍
amen
Long as he doesn't allow some woman to fuck it all up, I can't see where it would go wrong.
Gave me chills when you said everyone was so respectful. After all the crap in 2020 you give me hope for humanity. Thank you and god bless the Freedom Factory.
not sure if youll see this, as this comment being on a 3 year old vid, but just know success couldnt have came to a more deserving man, family, team, and friends. glad i found the channel, and for what its worth, youre the one ill continue to root for to have continued success brother. keep doing what youre doing, literally just trying to find a video here and there of yours i havent seen, to see how excited you all were to finally have opening night, to how much attention to detail you and the guys have put into the property, shows just how invested in this lifestyle everyone by your side is. keep being great brother! need to be able to make it down to an event sometime soon!
Can somebody tell me why I, a grown man, am in tears watching this? I remember being absolutely SHOOK when the reveal video dropped. To see this place taking off, to see all of the hard work and struggles pay off, its, im just at a loss for words. Having been a subscriber since the Rental Ram and the Procharger duck calls, it's just absolutely bananas to see the dedication and hard work pay off. Thank the big man for Cleet, and the entire team.
I'm not sure if the fact that it is a great handicap entrance was even part of the plan. But as a wheelchair user. Thank you. 🇺🇸🦅✌️
I thought about that in the last video. Was hoping they would at least have a ramp instead of stairs. In sure they thought about it.
No just make The Freedom Factory a trademark 🤣
@@richpryor9650 shut up
@@richpryor9650 hahahhaa
@@richpryor9650 Lamest plague in human history.
Girlfriend: "Why are you tearing up watching this?"
Me: "These guys have worked their asses off, and they deserve every bit of this success."
this just happened to me lol
Amen. They really have!!!
They all still seem so humble, too, especially Cleetus. I have so much respect for them.
100% me right now! I’ve been patiently waiting to see this day since he bought it. And I can’t imagine the emotions of the whole crew. Hopefully can make it to an event myself some day!
Just saw this after I posted "call me a pussy but this brought tears of joy to my eyes" LOL! And for the same reason you stated, the whole thing has been a thing of beauty from the start right up to this moment. shows what happens when people do things out of passion and not just for money.
Just imagine sitting back and looking at that accomplishment after all the hard work and struggle
I'm so proud of you guys and proud out the peeps cleaning up after themselves, that says alot about what kind of people you bring in.
This is exacly how all events should be, respectful, keeping it clean and everyone will be happy. 100% thumbs up
Make sure you let people know that this behavior is expected of our friends. You're welcome, until you misbehave.
Cleetus is so happy that he's at the point of crying because he realize how many people support him.
Wait till the freedom 500, it's going to be a nuthouse at the track. Having a huge crowd is going to make it so much better.
I would upvote but 69 likes so...
You gotta think, this is the validation of so much time and money, taking the plunge on a whole friggin racetrack during a pandemic. I’m proud of him man, he put out so much, I’m happy to see that he’s finally seeing it back.
Then a year later he realizes there's no profit in owning a race track and it goes right back up for auction
@@justinatkinson5265 This video was uploaded 4 hours ago and already made more than you will for the entire month. How many race tracks have you owned?
Congratulations cleetus! I'm so pumped for you! Watching you for like 3 years now. And seeing this and how happy you were. It's just amazing 👏
Garrett, you absolutely killed it. I so wish I could've made it out there for the opening event but man I must say I am so happy for you and your team overcoming every obstacle. The people that showed up were very invested regardless of if they were or not money-wise because this opening means so much to everyone else as well. You have succeeded my friend.
This place will become iconic.
Already has I think
Yup already is
Can you imagine how packed it's gonna be on the first big opening....hate to say it but there is gonna be a lot of trash left but it's gonna be Awesome to see...God Bless cleet and the gang 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@mikemartin2423 ????
@@bmxscape was just saying when the FF opens fully there will be alot of people and it will be so good to see that....????
Can we take a moment to honour a paver who very obviously worked hard, played hard and was likely always put away wet? She gave it everything she had.
Lil Mama will be missed; but never forgotten.😔🥺
Rest in peace, lil mamma. 🙏✌️
She threw a rod in the service of a greater good after many years of service, just like the Dodge from the blues brothers, and thus I hold my hat at my heart in respect for ye lol
boys shld get her n fix her up.. be handy to have their own little paver ...

@@1STGeneral Ok, that was clever.
Wish we could have been there. Congrats on everything buddy!
My god yess when the rona restrictions are over I’d love to see you u do a road tip to Florida for some drifting shenanigans and maybe some stuff with the cummins car. And this is a message from the Canadian west coast!
Bet you coulda kept that paver running 😂😂
@@johnlichtenstein6158 yup...james get the tool box
@@johnlichtenstein6158 Cleetus: Hey man can you take a peek at the paver for us and see if you can fix it?. Deboss: LS swap?
Same.
Take notes people. This is how you act at a car show.
Yup
SAYNOTOTAKEOVERS
Its not a real car show without ATLEAST one wreck and one fight...everyone knows this.
Needs a Summernats, US version. Cleetus and Cars, but more juiced up aha.
Have show cars, dyno, drifting and burnouts(Different groups/classes) to finish off.
Have main back road/path road where people can drive laps/U-turn. As long as they are not over the limit, not getting too wild, rev engines, lil mini spins etc(But even that's pushing it). But honestly think that would be amazing.
Plus promo women ;) & maybe like random crowd member gets a chance to be a passenger in drifting couple laps with Cleetus or Vaughn Jnr?
Depends how maybe you could do the raffle/prize etc. And all that !!
Then adding & inviting other CZcamsr's that are into car scene etc. So much potential and vision I'm seeing. Good luck and god bless Cleetus lad :) lol, some random Aussie fan and I'm excited and thinking of ways to make best event haha. Once again cleetus god bless brother, take care, I hope family, misses and friends all doing well
Where is the street races though?
Can't imagine how this all had to finally feel after EVERYTHING you've been through to get your facility ready. Huge HUGE congrats brother!
I'm just so happy to see the FF finally open to the people. I have been following since early on. I just knew you and the crew were going to be amazing, especially once you purchased the speedway. I'm truly happy for you and I can't wait to be there live and in-person. Congrats @Cletus & crew
When he bought the track I kinda thought it would end up just being his playground and nothing more. He immediately started fixing and upgrading things, and now just over a year after buying it he's got it open to the public. HELL YEAH BROTHER!!!
Sharing is caring
I never knew he was that much of a dreamer. He saw what it could be, and is going full steam towards it. It's WAY better than I thought it was gonna be. It'll eclipse the DeSoto legacy and be a landmark in Florida by itself. An automotive center of the southeast US.
Imagine where the freedom factory would be if covid never happened?
@@patrickwhite4449 it would be a event like every other day! Would have to open a B&B on site next 😂
I've never been happier for a person I've never met in my life.
Real talk
One thing is buying the place ( wich is absolutely amazing), and the other thing that they managed to fix this place up like that in time.
Legends.
This!
Cleetus is legend!
Absolutely agree with you
Can't bleave you've gone from videos in your garage to owning a track. CONGRATULATIONS Brotha. You deserve it. 🇺🇸
Proud of ya man been following you for a few years and seen ya grow and grow and I swear your smile just keeps gettin bigger and bigger so keep it rollin cuz I got faith in ya brutha!!!
I can’t believe this all started in your driveway at that rental house.
For real!! I remember that man
Exactly, Whodda Thunk It....But He did...
Wym it all started at a parking lot with "twin turbos" on the trailer
Putting a blower on a leased ram😂😂
yes,my thoughts as well.it s as if he knew what he is doing. impressive. i wish i was in florida but alas i am in freezing cold finland,my beautiful 64 super sport malibu is sold due stressing financial issues etc.but i can always re live my glory days thru these vids cleeturis and his boychecks make.keep at it!!
That paver's engine is one of many that will throw a rod at the Freedom Factory. RIP.
Congrats to you Cleetus and your amazing Team! You all should be so proud of all you've accomplished in just the last year alone! Continuing to root for you as you continue to do good things, along with including all your youtube Team followers and sponsors on your Journey. The last 3-5 minutes of this clip speaks volumes towards your sincere appreciation for all those here. Keep moving Forward Sir!
So proud of Cletus. His progression over the years has been just amazing. He is just absolutely living the dream. Has been just an awesome past few years and looking forward to what the future holds!
Not gonna lie, this made me a little emotional. You've worked so damn hard for the Freedom Factory, and your dedication to making it as good as it can be is clear to all of us. You've brought so many people together already, and gotten a large portion of the community involved with the merch sales. If anyone is deserving the success, its you, Garrett. You never take anything for granted, and you're always thankful for the people who support you. You are one of the greatest influencers on this platform, teaching people that if you try hard enough, anything is possible. If there's one thing that stands out the most, it's your humility. You never put yourself on top of others, even for us fans. You interact with us as individuals instead of "just another fan" like other youtubers. That is what makes me respect you the most.
I'll raise a glass to you. Congrats on the first public Freedom Factory event, and here's to many others in the future! Looking forwards to the future event videos!
Couldn't have said it better myself. 👏
100% agree, also earns kudos cuz he hasnt filmed a task at the FF that he himself hasnt gotten his hands dirty with at least a little bit, mad respect!!!
And I thought I was being ridiculous for getting emotional about this. He's worked so hard to make this dream a reality, and what sealed it for me was having everything you worked so hard for be respected instead of abused. I'm so excited to see what the future holds for this florida man and his racetrack. Blessings from Canada, it's awesome watching people be people again. It's been awhile since I've seen smiling faces like that up here.
100% facts
I’m smiling ear to ear watching this man live everyone’s dream
This is why I play the lottery. Gotta buy an abandoned race track.
So happy for you!!! It looked awesome! Congrats to all of you! Hell Yeah!
Been getting into your channel this past few months, this was almost emotional for me to watch. Proud of you guys! 👏
Those aren’t hot dogs those are Freedom Frank’s .
No they're Freedom Furters!
There's a few good documentaries on you tube that shows the complete process in making these 'hot dogs'.
Watch one and you might not want to eat one again.
I prefer to eat actual food myself.

@@frankdesbaux unless you are catching your food and processing it yourself you eat a ton of stuff that you probably shouldn't. lol

Gonna be a lot of dads bringing their kids here and planting that car loving seed , and you will be apart of that result. You'll be hearing future generations explaining how they got into cars and they will mention the time their dads brought them to the the freedom factory.
its where memories are made!!!
I can’t wait to take my son and daughter to the next event.
To true !!!!!
"is the hotdog good?"
"yeah"
shit still wrapped in aluminum foil lol
that was probably his second one 👀
@@nardocobain Shit, at those prices idk man lmao not really thats actually decent price for concession food, wish I could of been there lol
I think if you get two hotdogs a free diaper comes with it
i know lol
It was probably his second one, but he did look at it like: "Yeah it's still wrapped".
The one guy put ketchup on his dog though.
Cleet, I had chills the entire video for you! Beyond happy and wish you the absolute best of luck moving forward!
What I really like about cleetus is he doesn’t mind getting his hands dirty to chip in and get shit done. So many others would just let the contractor do all the work. Not cleet. He’s in digging dirt laying asphalt. And still stays humble enough to meet fans etc.
I completely agree, and id bet he wants to meet the fans just as much as they want to meet him, at least thats the vibe ive always got
Or get his lungs dirty when cutting concrete....the faux Southern toughness in this vid is quite annoying. This will all come back to bite you guys when you're older.....but hey, who cares now?! Wouldn't want to be mistaken for a Democrat by responsibly wearing a mask would we? Sheese....

@@stevemurrell6167 it’s amazing how he gets to live his own life you get to live yours. It’s almost like he controls whether he wants to wear one or not. Just let it go. No need for negativity.
@@stevemurrell6167 you seem like youd be fun at parties
When the first guys walked in, I had a smile on my face straight to the end of the video. I am so happy for you and your accomplishments. I know the stress of opening your door to the public for the first time and you did a great job. No matter how prepared you think you are, there will always be something. The fact that there is no garbage for you to clean up is a testament to your character as a man, as the owner, and to the whole McFarland/ Freedom Factory brand. You guys show everybody the highest level of respect and in turn people are going to show you the utmost respect in return.
I wouldn't be surprised to see, in 5 to 10 years, the FF with a giant parking garage out by the road and several new on and off road tracks on the property making it the premier motorsports park on the east coast. Give it a few years and I guarantee the next door neighbor will be made an offer they can't refuse and Cleetus will have his own pro drag strip too. The sky is the limit now!!
I like your vision...
I can definitely see Cleetus owning Bradenton Motorsports Park someday, and Cleetus and cars becoming a multi day event. Burnout competition one day, drag racing the next, and a circle track race the day after that. Sky is the limit with Cleetus I think.
Great job, Cleetus and crew!
Congrats on all of your success, it's WELL DESERVED!
It's amazing to see so many people come out and support the track to show some love for Cleetus and crew. It Looks like everybody had an amazing time and the Freedom Factory will be an Icon of hard work, passion for racing, and a shared love of the sport. You made it happen and that should be an inspiration to anyone with a dream. Heeeellll Yeeaaah Cleetus!

Lmao dude that is exactly how i come across his channel hes come along well deserved way thats for damn sure
That was literally the first video I ever saw of his haha and look at him now
Same here, just laughed and left that video faster than “hell ya brother”. Somehow I’m now watching every video 👍
Yes that was awesome, also started to follow him that time haha
This is the track CZcams built. We all should feel pride. Our support allowed this incredible young man to use his drive and determination to give us this amazing facility.

Sure made my eyes wet from the thought of all the hard work finally coming together! So glad things were a giant success! I don't see how anything could have come together any better! CHEERS to the Freedom Factory family!!
To everyone that went to the freedom factory give yourself a pat on the back. Its just amazing to hear how you guys didn't trash the place and treated the place as your own. This means a lot to all of us who support Cleetus and The Freedom Factory. This means more events for us to attend and watch here on CZcams. Thank you!!!!
put a couple dots after the first "the" and it's like a cliff hanger. "YOU'RE AT THE... THE FREEDOM FACTORY!!!!!!!!"
Or just use quotation marks "The Freedom Factory"
I’m so proud of you for opening this race track and making so many so happy! God bless you and your family brother!
Congratulations on the awesome first opening!! Cant wait to see what the FF has in store!! God bless Cleet!
When the world opens up I’m coming to visit from Australia
I send my best wishes to all you ausies! You guys are the best! 🤙🏼
You mean when Australia opens? America is open brother!!!!!!
@@robbyboyles8351 lol Australia is more open than the us
Visit for me too, Mick! Wish I could go:)
@@markvanzyl6220 in a lot of parts of America it can’t get any more open than it is. Packed concerts, bars, whatever
A track that would have be lost overtime , is given life by a Florida man fueled my dew just doing it for dale
Huge congratulations! Thanks, for putting it in for this! Very encouraging to see. The FF showed some true grit getting this across the finishline.
Just the emotion in his voice as he's talking about his success!! Many more to follow!!
Sounded like Ole Cleet is fighting back the joyful tears at the end there, don't blame him! Congrats to you and the team on bringing this to life and happy those of us in youtube land can enjoy the ride with you!
Hey that was me at 13:35 ! Happy to have worked there for y’all on the first event at the freedom factory looking forward for more to come!
You could make a killing if you twitch stream, you're a looker
@@zapthefirst3423 bonk, go to horny jail
@@zapthefirst3423 +1 bonk
Thank you for making the dream come alive! Hell yeah sister!
Hell Yah sister!! wish i could have come but its like a 8000 mile flight!!
Congratulations on the opening. Lots of work it took from the day you got the track, not too long ago, super happy for you and your crew. Super job.
Well done Cleetus and Team! I really enjoyed this video and it felt different from any other video. I've been following FF since you first showed it to us and it feels like I'm part of the journey. This is super exciting stuff. I can only wish for the best for you and the team and the FF. Hopefully one day I can visit and support FF as I am from South Africa.
Imagine having the guts to drop out of law school and follow a dream that probably seemed silly at times to other people. Imagine how much grit it would take to follow that through all the ups and downs. Then imagine the feeling of pride as people started flooding through the gates! Hell yeah brother! Congrats Garrett! You’re doing it man.
"Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will!"
It gave me chills seeing people going into those gates! You’re Keeping freedom alive Cleetus!
🤟
You are a true testament to America, the American dream come true and i am proud to be a fan. I have a 1968 Mustang, amd love America as much as you. Congratulations !!! Good show.
Just catching up but Congratulations!!! Only been watching for year and half but have enjoyed every video. Good luck and keep it going!!! Can't wait to make it out.
Crazy that there isn’t a single piece of trash at the end, I don’t know if I’ve ever seen that at an event
100% was trash I saw a Instagram story of it being picked up
@@user-gu4oc9en4s Yeah. Unfortunately there is just no way around it. I mean, there is...but it will never ever happen because people...
It'd be cool if like you get a trash bag with every vehicle or something that enters, and if you return the bag with your trash at the end of the night you get like a 5 dollar voucher for something, or like a food voucher
There's a place in Brisbane Australia that hosts events (when COVID isn't an issue) and they regularly post about not having to pick up a single piece of rubbish at the end of the event. It is a much smaller event scale though. I love it when people are respectful like that.
That’s how you know Cleetus has earned the respect of damn near everyone.
The paver looks like old Bessie from "CARS" the movie. I can just see you hooking up Ruby to pull it around the track!

@@joex6359 uhhh
Or maybe Leroy?🤣🤣🤣
Well Done! Everyone can see you here and your humble personality along with your team and Im sure the majority respect that and what you guys are about. Glad to see that respect at your facility and I hope it stays as positive as you guys are.
Congrats guys! All the hard work is paying off, so stoked for you and the FF renovation!
Why I love cleetus. He talks to everyone like they’re best friends and I love that.
Absolutely. He stood there for hours doing a meet and greet on one of the turns of the track with dozens of fans, giving them all a decent amount of time to hang out, talk, and take multiple photos with him. I've seen him do the same at Cleetus and Cars, but he really seems genuinely happy to stand there and meet the people who love his content and make the Freedom Factory possible.
Absolutely insane to think that in 2-3 years cleet went from a car fan with a couple cars to basically a race team owner with his own track.
And he deserves it
@Mnt Man He didn't have that kind of money. He did have smarts though to be in law school...
@Mnt Man money or not, it takes work and effort to get where hes gone today.
Congrats for all the hard work and finally being open! 👍🏼
So glad you guys got to do a soft opening during everything. This is amazing. Happy that the FF is able to host and have others enjoy it woth you guys. This is great and going to help so much. Huge boost for the FF and all the FF fans.
