They have said so many times that it’s not a public race, it’s crazy how people don’t pay attention. I’m glad the Freedom 500 is still happening. Let the bald eagles fly!
Eric Exactly. He has told us many times that the track is not ready to hold fans and the race will not have any fans at the track. If people payed attention and listened then everything would be so much easier.
100$ people will still show up. They will come by the bus load and I bet they will have a few videos coming up on youtube from people recording the race and trying to post it same day or IG stream it. When there is an option for stupidity, people will happily take it.
Kyle Barn 🦠that part of the elites wicked plan division and fear!! Next will be mandatory vaccines and cashless society!! Bye bye rights ( what’s left of them) crash the dollar!! And then “ we our from the government and we are here to help !😱 run !!!!! If we don’t stop this America is dead !! Socialism here we come 😡
@@rods907 from a country thats has semi mandatory vaccines i agree with it (mandatory only in the way of no vaccine no welfare/school/daycare), antivaxers are idiots and it only works if everyone is vaccinated. cashless is little more than gun controls, has nothing to do with public safety and a lot to do with control.
SO glad Garrett that you are still going ahead with the Freedom 500🤘🤘🤘 I'm looking forward to some Friday night shenanigans🤘👍😁 I know where I'll be Friday night, right on my comfy gaming chair watchin' the ol' Pay Per View🤣🤣 We all need this shot of positivity at this most difficult time. Hell Yeah Brother!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Let me just say I've been layed off work and will be for the foreseeable future, in quarantine. I have nothing to look fwrd to right now except this. So that being said thank Cleetus and crew, all of the drivers and anyone else making this happen i am grateful
Hear ya man. My job shut down permanently and even walmart around here isnt hiring anymore because they got so many applications from the laid off. people.
I feel ya man, I’m self employed, all my business cancelled or is rebooking once they know when this is all winding down, and I can’t even get a job because they’re all closed or have too many apps! Shoot I’m supposed to be getting married in October and we were trying to save for a house!
I wasn't planning on doing the Pay-per-View, but now I'm doing it to support you guys. I'm truly impressed with the track transformation and you being so hands-on in the process. While I think we should all use common sense and take relevant precautions, An event as well organized as this should happen for the benefit of everyone. Thank you for doing what you do.
Excellent answer Clete! Thank you and all of the RU-vid crews coming together to put on this event. This is exactly the kind of attitude we all need right now! Of course we all need to be careful, we also need to keep doing things. No-one wants to get sick, but honestly most people don't even know if they've been exposed or not. Stop living in fear, be careful, and try to share some joy with others either on line, over the fence, or just at your neighbors across the street. All of us at the McFarland Fan Club support you guys!!!!! Let Er Rip Tater Chip!
@@leviwyatt5921 I still go to work. we keep distance, wash our hands, clean door knobs. It's not a big deal. Doing the groceries is much more dangerous with all the strangers crawling over you at the vegetables. In this time of staying home people most definitely need content/entertainment!
@@leviwyatt5921 No the Freedom 500 is ABSOLUTELY necessary now more than ever bc our sports entertainment is now limited down to Jelles Marble Runs as everything else is cancelled. Going grocery shopping is currently the most dangerous thing anyone can be doing right now
Garrett is one of the smartest and most thoughtful guys anywhere. That's why he's successful. He's never going to do anything he thinks is not in the best interests of everyone. I think even the detractors are glad the race is going to happen. Thanks for everything Y'all are doin. Going to the store for groceries is more dangerous than hanging out at the track. Be safe and informed.
@Historical Archive the smartest people know they aren't the smartest at everything, and so they get help from people smarter than them. Isn't that smart?
Legend!!! Don't stress. In this weird time you are going above and beyond!!!! I think you have taken every precaution necessary and no malice has ever been shown. Wishing you the best of luck!!!!
Dont sweat it buddy, giver hell! People are flipping the hell out even more so now then before cuz they're cooped up in their homes with nothing to do. You're doing the right thing.
Guaranteed the same people that are complaining and getting their panties in a bunch are the same ones that bought all the toilet paper ( definitely not the sharpest tools in the shed )
J O H N- he’s complaining. Because he’s a dirty liberal and hates capitalism. He’s a moron, like the people the buy toilet paper instead of food and water.
These guys are doing this for us more than themselves. Chill out and be thankful they even care enough about us all to put the show on for us. THANKS GUYS 🙏🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
Thanks Cleeter, I genuinely appreciate the message and the efforts involved in letting people know how serious you're taking this. The LAST thing anybody wants to hear is news that you or your friends get sick from being irresponsible. Good job partner. Have fun this Friday!!
I’m 39 this is the first ppv i have ever watched and paid for beside mcgregor and mayweather. Your doing it for the right reasons man. U a good dude we all know it. Entertaining and a great patriot. Can’t wait til friday. DO IT FOR AMERICA!!!!!!!!!
@@dillonbenham1 that's the type of bs that will ruin future events. If I was cleetus any drones that are not his for filming I'd shoot down. Cuz legally a drone can't fly high enough to enter into faa airspace and anything below that belongs to the property owner below where it's flying. So you would be trespassing if you fly a drone close enough to see the race. Further more just pay the damn 10 bucks and help support our boy cleet and enjoy the damn show.
Don't let em get to ya Cleet. We can see your doing it well ("to the best of your abilities"), and that's a lot better than many out there. Thank you for kicking ass and going forward with ALL of this, it would be too easy to bail or postpone the event (and all the work). Thank you, MAN!
It's sad that he should even have to put out this video. People should be smart enough to hear what he said and still be able to be smart and responsible. Don't be stupid, stupid! Please people, be safe and responsible.
Why can’t people listen🤣 so happy the freedom 500 is still happening and is being live streamed, only worry is that with so many people online at one time the stream might get crowded, other than that I have already bought my paper view and is ready for the race! Hell yeah brother
Thanks for clearing this up Cleetus! I honestly was surprised that the event was still happening but when I realized that these 30 people will be spread out around the track or in cars it makes much more sense!
just got back from walmart and there was at least 30 people just in the check out lines.. i think 30-35 people all across a race track will be no big deal whatsoever.
Cleetus u do what ur doing. U are going big and doing ur dream. Dont let others put u down. And honestly we need somthing like this freedom 500 this weekend to lift all us do it for dale'ers spirits up at this time right now
People need to learn to just worry about themselves and stay out of other peoples business. Harassing a man's family because you're all up in your feelings is a joke
@Matt Reardon Jep the virus is a joke....... It a great ideer to assemble 28 guys you not together with daily........ Anyone fro Italy would say it is just perfekt way to spread the v... I just hope it will be worth it to you guys.......
Garrett this is the best way for everything to go with the freedom 500. First people were upset there would be no spectators allowed. Now people mad theres too many people there. Glad to see this event to keep going.
@@WillFrom613 he said in another video it will go up on the channel in a couple weeks. I hope that holds true. I bought it to support but may not be able to watch it live.
@@WillFrom613 Where did you get that info from? Cleetus said himself it'll be posted on the channel a few vids ago. So Idk where you came up with that lol
That is a lot of cars to buy every year. Nice thing about the Crown Vic is that he can buy them in bulk from the state, you can't really do that with other vehicles. I am sure most of the cars are going to survive the race. That's going to keep the investment down the FF500 2.0
Thanks for making this video. I was the one who commented yesterday about how meeting with your buddies is not the best idea. It's a completely logical thing to do when you first announced the race and at that time the situation wasn't as bad. So thank you for clearing that up and it'll be one hell of a race brother.
Cleeter Mcskeeter......thank you for what you do and can't wait to see the footage from the freedom 500. It's going to be awesome. Stay safe and let em rip!
@@83cjwest Right, watching a bunch of entitled rich guys destroy perfectly good vehicles that could be projects or transportation for ppl that don't have any.. "entertainment"
Start to finish in a time-laps, filmed from the finish flag stand. It's fun to watch a cement pour. Not so fun to be doing it yourself though. Hopefully no-one gets the "Pouring day blues" and decides to pull a sicky (Sick Day).
Don't listen to all the haters!!! Truth is, you are keeping well over 30 people home and indoors during this. We need it during this pandemic and anything you can do to entertain everybody during this worldwide issue, is well worth it. Thank you Florida man and do it for Dale!
You are a Legend Cleetus, you are doing it for all the good reasons mate. You have 10 wakers giving you a hard time and 2 000 000 Rev Heads behind you 100%. Keep up the good fight mate.
Your the man! We need you guys...ignore the ignorant! You guys know what your doing.👍🏻keep it up! We love and and NEED it now!! Thanks, Cleeter and team.
We need positive attitude in the world right now! Bring us some joy , you are taking the precautions best you can! We can’t stop living life , but we can practice safety and enjoy at the same time! Can’t wait for the race it’s gonna be epic!
No stress old mate ..thanks for reassuring the socialy concerned warriors, I'm sure a couple of them tried to get it all shut down from the comments last post...we got you buddy. Stay safe ...
Honestly, when all this first started going down, I was thinking about how they have an excellent platform to bring people entertainment while in lockdown. It is over the internet and it isn't a contact sport. You could do the whole thing without coming within six feet of each other. Now, what we have all been waiting for - I want to know how you get that big of a patch of concrete flat and smooth.
Because every other (and bigger) event and races are being cancelled, people think that you’re not special and should delay or cancel the 500. But the thing is, you are REVOLUTIONIZING the entertainment industry. With ppv, this race is the only live event (that I know of) people can enjoy during quarantine
False Flag no you can’t. Legally he would get the shit sued out of him and as long as their drone is legal and registered than they will win. You don’t own the air space over your property. This of course ends when we’re talking about government property/air ports etc.
I happy to see young motorheads with the enthusiasm to save our historical tracks and update them to appeal to changing times..I think you should offer up your facility to Gov Desantis as an emergency facility if it would become necessary to use it..You could support airlift..storage..staging or whatever use seems appropriate..Since you have poured the pad..It would be the right thing to do..They may compensate you..They may help you improve the facility..The advertising would be priceless for your facility..the companies that helped you make your dream possible..and worst case they could just take it and use it if they wanted to.. Congratulations on your accomplishments and hopefully you will be able to fill your grandstands soon..👍
Im planning to have 3 guests watch the event, total of 4 of us, it's going to be outdoors on my projector and drive in style where we watch from inside our cars, should be FANTASTIC! very excited for the event!
@@NoGrip No emailing a strangers family is a whole new level of disrespectful. It's obvious you thought that was a great idea. Where'd I mention racing or cars? Quit emailing Cleeter.
Some people are an all together "Special" kind of stupid and it doesn't matter how many times you try to help them understand, if they're not paying attention, nothing will ever sink in to their brains. Just a sad fact of life and there's basically nothing anyone can do to change that fact.
Shrimp_ Daddy it’s about respecting cleetus content. He’s the maker and some bitch wants a freebie and watch it from a drone. Cleetus should hire me so I can shoot em down
You guys have worked so hard to get where you're at. Now this Corona thing has to happen. Y'all stay safe your fans know you will put on a great show. Just do it for Dale.
You should shower Cooper in Brake Clean to make sure he’s disinfected. With a helmet on of course; preferably in the trunk of some vehicle just for old times sake.
You will never make everyone happy Cleetus. You are doing a great job, and many of us are excited. It is something that many of us need to help break up the montany.
I think the issue is not how many people will be there and how far apart they will be, but the fact that they are coming from other locations to be there. I get that Cleetus' intent it so follow social distancing criteria and he is certainly doing just that....but maybe the travel part is at odds with the intent of the CDC and State guidlines(?). Just a thought.
Really dude. I was just trying to state an alternate point of view since everyone was so quick to judge, not necessarily one I share BTW. But if you want to be a asshole about go ahead. I am NOT a liberal so GFYS on that statement.
I NEVER took up issue with the actual event. I support you on what you are trying to do. I just found it funny when you originally said to meet up with friends and go in on the event. Which, doesn't work right now. Love the channel, love what you're up to, and please keep it up!!
I would suggest that it's going to be a shoot out. Bragging rights on a channel such as Cleetus etc. will be huge for any sponsor related entrants. Of course this totally depends on what the camera picks up to be the content of their character. Should be interesting, these guys are going to punch it and push the cars to the max. For crying out loud make sure your waiver language is iron clad.
I had to take my pets to their bi annual checkups yesterday... In the 3 years I've lived in Odenon Maryland... I have never seen more people outside... When I walked my dogs 2 months ago, most of the time I would never run into another soul. Now... when I walk my dogs, I run into no less than 5 encounters, whether it be a 1 or 5 people. I just don't fuckin get it.
Everybody's stressing. By what you said I think your plan is solid and low risk. Good for you to listening to skeptics and making appropriate changes. MERICA!
@@NoGrip The world cannot just stop because of this virus. If it did... society would collapse. For some us, yeah, staying at home is easy because we can work from home. Producing these videos is Garrett's job. If he's not doing this, his life is basically on hold, and it's the same for most of the guys doing this race. The risk they are choosing to take by being minimally exposed to each other, they are taking on themselves, and they are doing it in the safest way they can given the parameters of the race.
@@NoGrip hey man stop emailing and harrasing this guys family about this event. It's going to be so dope. Turn off social media for a day or 2. Leaving comments on everyone's comment on this video... F off dude. Your annoying.
Llama Cebu Florida closed all the beaches. And they are stopping people from entering the state who are coming from NY or Louisiana both from air travel and the interstates. So, yeah, they can stop them from public spaces.
I live in Florida. They might be stopping people but they can prevent them from coming. They are basically saying "pretty please quarantine for 2 weeks". That's it.
Dont see any problem with what you're doing brother. I work in the food supply chain and those warehouses have more than 30 employees zooming by on forklifts, in and out of trailers within the building. Dont let the haters get to you, be safe and put on a good show!
