Meeting the Man Who Originally BUILT and Owned Our Abandoned Speedway in the 70’s!!

1. New Freedom Factory hats and “REDNECK ENGINEER” shirts available here!! https://www.cleetusmcfarland.com/

2. I come back to this video every now and then. Gene is an absolute champ. Regardless of how many races he may have won. What a wonderful man to still be able to reference the history this speedway. I hope you can have Gene there when this whole pandemic has become manageable and we can all go racing together again. It would be a fitting tribute to this gentleman if we could experience him enjoying a victory lap on the track that he started so many years ago. Please consider this. Thanks.

3. Definitely be cool to see those schematics of the track copied, framed, and hung.

4. Anybody else really want the new T shirt but can't find it on the store?

5. reminds me of field of dreams build it and they will come. Great to pass the history to the next generation.

6. FRANK!!

7. Is this Jeff Favignano playing Lance Bostrom? or is it just me?

8. Now you need him to come back and see it how it is now

9. I could both hear and feel the respect in both Garett and James' voices for this guy. What an incredible video. This doesn't have nearly enough likes.

10. The late great legend Butch Lindley was fatally injured there. One of the few fellow drivers Dale Earnhardt feared.

11. I was going to this track when I was a kid to watch the drag races and demolition derbies

12. August 4th 1978 is my dad's birthday!!!!
