Heads up to anyone watching the freedom 500 - it’s been moved up to tomorrow because of Florida going into lockdown. 7pm EST which I believe is midnight our time?

His insta post said 9pm which is 2am here.

 

[McGherkin]

Yeah the race starts at 2am, the stream starts at 12.

 

[JamesBryan]

Yeah the race starts at 2am, the stream starts at 12.

Ahh cool.

 

[Usr117063]

Its gonna be chaos, they wont be able to control the boats quick enough, I reckon there will be a couple casualties in the first lap.

Im gonna stay up and watch it I cant miss the action live

 

[Pistachio]

I was kinda expecting 1080p but oh well. I hope the servers keep up

 

[McGherkin]

It’s gonna be fun either way.

I’m sure in future they’ll get better quality throughput, I’d imagine they’re reasonably limited in terms of connectivity there.

 

[RuskiWeldFab]

Is it PPV only?

Yup. www.cleetusmcfarland.com

 

[Krarl]

Yeah $14.95 PPV only

 

[Pistachio]

How many freakin donuts have they already done! lol

 

[Usr117063]

I bought it as it turned thursday for me but it was still $10 as it based off their time zone

 

[McGherkin]

12 minutes in and nothing’s happened yet...

expected it, that’s why they left 2 hours before the start of the race.

WE’RE IN BOYS

 

[McGherkin]

Do we wanna do a Freedom500 thread for those watching?

 

[Usr117063]

Yeah, keep this separate

Freedom 500 Thread

If you’re bored and looking for something to watch, Cleetus McFarland is racing 22 Crown Vics with nitrous in a 100 lap race. It’s PPV, but should be good fun. don’t expect amazing production value! www.cleetusmcfarland.com

Speed Academy have been doing a decent E46 M3 J2Z build recently, STi and Evo 6 too.

It’s so forced, everything feels like an advert and well American. I think I’ve been spoilt by Driftworks, rarely does it feel like the video is a push for advertising just Phil and Co with various projects.

 

[Dom_capper]

DannyDC2 is back on it with videos. Always enjoy his stuff. Very Yorkshire approach to motoring

 

[Usr117063]

Btw cleetus said there will be another race at the end of the year but not the crown vics, something a little different. Regardless Im sure it will be mental just like the last one.

 

[Gally]

You guys watch carfection? Couldn't be bothered searching.

 

[Philip.]

Waiting for the next build episode on the Honda or Evo from Gears and Gasoline. They make great videos!

Anyone watching the Hoonigan live stream? The Vargas brothers just did a burnout at their shop and 3 fire engines and 2 cop cars turned up sirens blazing

Im gonna preface this by saying... yes I’m a boring old fart.

But... what is the point of these long burnouts?

Showing an rx7 driving & lighting up the rears in 2nd and rolling a bit of tyre smoke for a couple of secs, I can see how that could be impressive.

But sat there for minutes stationary in clouds of smoke just seems really bizarre that people are enjoying it. Does it need to go on and on?

I’m too mechanically sympathetic though & just feel for the cars.

I can only assume kids think it’s cool and it sells views, same kids that get their parents to buy the ‘merch’ I guess.

Have you never seen any of the Aussie burnout cars or competitions?

Huge burnouts are a thing these days [emoji23]

 

[RuskiWeldFab]

Huge burnouts were a thing 25 years ago in the Max Power days. It's just easier to video them now 😂

 

[-Jamie-]

Yeah but now you have legit competitions

 

[Pistachio]

It's weird, I've never done burnouts (except in a hire car). It just seems like a waste of expensive tyres. But I love watching them 😆

Same with drifting 🤷‍♂️

 

[leeds2592]

People's thought on this?

 

[McGherkin]

This is the same brain surgeon who decided to mod the s**t out of a car he didn’t even own.

Bet you a fiver he didn’t seek permission from Tesco to do commercial photography on their premises.

 

[botfch]

Guys a pleb the more fines he gets the better.

 

[Philip.]

People's thought on this?

Harsh but with the attitude he has they were always going to rinse him. He’s a gobby b*****d anyway, not keen on his channel 99% of the time.

 

[Pistachio]

He was kind of asking for it with his attitude. Also he is way too old to think number plates in the windscreen are ok

 

[Al_G]

Who thinks sticking a number plate in a window is a good idea? May as well stick it up his arse.

 

[Donny_Dog]

With what he does for a living, ragging cars beyond speed limits on video, would you not just pay it, shut up and move on.
I've unsubscribed, can't be doing with bleeting outspokens who pretend they are cleaner than clean and then moan about being caught out. It's borderline palletable anyway, but the point he is trying to make by posting the video is lost on anyone with an IQ greater than 1.

 

[MarcB]

So for me this guy is the worst of the worst on social media, He does my head in and how the earth he gets away with doing what he does on public roads in a number of different cars is totally beyond me.
"Yes" we dont all drive like old Sandra who is 87 and "Yes" we have broken the speed limit but I for one can 100% say that they days are long gone in my book unless its in the correct environment I.E Track, Private Land, Airfield and so on.

I see that he is now trying to sell his car by doing 3995 tickets at £25.00 a ticket so in effect he is looking for £99,875 for an M4 thats got a bad or good rep depending on how you look at it.

He has said that if they dont sell all the tickets he is willing to sell it when they reach 2500 tickets at £25.00 so this will be a £62,500 car ?

Big drop me £99, 875 to £62,500

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

What a prick. If he'd just got out of the car when asked, they probably wouldn't have been so hard on him. His attitude stinks. If he wants to give people advice, maybe advise them not to speak to Police Officers like they're c***s. It will never go well.

I'm not sure taking pictures of a car is really that essential at the moment. And why did the photographer need to be in the car with him? The photographer could have driven himself and avoided that close contact.

Regardless, the guy is a prick. There are so many of these know-nothings on YouTube. I can't understand what people get out of watching them.

Had a quick flick through the comments on his Instagram about it. Hilarious.

 

[leeds2592]

I was just about to say look at the comments, the utter amount of mouth breathers is crazy.

My favourite was a comment saying the coppers were thick while he repeatedly used there instead of they're 😂

 

[Mr Burns]

I was going to watch it, but after seeing the gold BMW with the embroidered seats at the start I changed my mind.

Proper Bradford spec.

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Just read some of the comments and you'll get a good sense of what the guy is all about. What an absolute pellet.
