The El Camino had a great day, congrats! Top racing again! I also appreciate you giving the eliminated guys a crack at half time. Nice touch and fun! (Ok, I cheered for Bill.) Cheers for the action and great show, Marc D
Let me start off by saying how much I really love all of the upgrades that you've made on the track starting with the podium with all of the team names on it going around the Messa Butte turn along with all of the other advertisements you have throughout the track. As far as this race is concerned, it's easy to expect some kind of special excitement but on this race, we were treated to some really good races and straight-up competition as well. There's no better racing on RUclips than this, you put a nice personal touch to this channel and I look forward to each race as it comes. Keep putting out great content.
Best racing channel, great track and amazing races! Anyone can win. Half time show was brilliant, make it a team tournament and count me in !! The drift from the gold truck by Strike was perfect - I am biased as it is mine !! 👍🏼
@@nickdeavers5816 that ravine is proving to be the great equalizer and I just didn’t add up. I was happy with the performance on the rest of the track though. Back to the drawing board.
LOL, Aaron biffed the tournament tag line today--it's definitely "Are Ya _Truckin_ ?" in this event! High drama as James Ironbeard pushed through against all the difficulties he experienced today but persevered to make it to Round 2!! YAY!! Excellent use of that extreme widescreen frame on the train cam around the Big U turn. Always a treat to see a host try something never before seen in the hobby!! Probably the very very best halftime show yet today, not just for this tournament but I would say in the entire history of the channel! *Eight* trucks taking on the Shavano Mountain course at once?? Stupendous! From the very first episode in Season 1, I knew this channel brought that certain extra something making it stand out in the hobby. Maybe I'm biased, because we just don't see rally cross represented much, but that quality shone through even back then and even with only one type of car racing. It's been a helluva ride seeing you grow, try bigger things and succeed at it. Appreciate it all, deeply!
I think the half time show should be a future series in the making. Congratulations to you on the fantastic work you've put into the scenery, the water in the canyon look superb👏👏👏
East bound and down, Loaded up and truckin', We gonna do what they say can't be done. We got a long way to go, and a short time to get there, I'm East bound, just watch ol' bandit run. Who remembers this movie? Leave a like please.
OH WOW, great race. So many things can go wrong. Love that half time show and the names of the teams. Great background music. Reminded me of Smokey and the bandit. That El Camino was dang good. How the heck do you time the Train cam to catch the big "U" That is an awesome view of that section. You just keep getting better and better. Way to go James, ya made this race. Rooting for ya in the next.
8 car or should I say truck halftime show was fun to watch! Would make a great eliminator race where the top 4 or 6 move on and all def’s are eliminated.
Fantastic racing and great action. What a performance by James with the 1/2 twist roof slide to recovery. Gratz to James Ironbeard and Ross Roddin. WTG! Awesome track, awesome event and brilliantly done. "Keep your roof to the Sun". Mahalo
Amazing gravity-defying recovery from James Ironbeard! Enjoyed the half-time show - presumably Steve Austin-tacious is off having some new bionic body parts fitted after his recent 'excursions'?
A wonderful unique track with incredible, amazing photography, who would have seen the final result of heat 5 after 2 races????. The 8 car race was great fun You truly are the standard setters for this genre of RUclips....Awesome work!!!!!
Great race! Incredible recovery from James Ironbeard! Congratulation for the moving ons! I love your camera angle from the train in the U-turn. Hard to time that. And the music during the great halftime show 👍🤪😂 Did you put a clear guardrail on the „former“ jump?
Looking at the big U and such, and thinking back just what, a couple weeks it seems to white walls and 2x4's all over? If only my own projects went this fast haha
Totally amazing race, again! James Ironbeard, I have issues through that part of the track too... can you teach me that "roll over, go off track, then get on track on your wheels again" move? 🙃
I also noticed my truck is still rubbing the wheel wells on the walls on the joker track. Hmmm. Are the walls not slanted outward? Anyone else notice this? or is it just me?
You'll find most cars with the wheels "inside" the body don't do very well on most tracks due to rubbing. Some get away with it by being heavier or faster...
Wow, definitely a nail biting experience!! Another amazing round of racing! Still not sure why an el Camino is in a truck race? It a car! Anyway, awesome halftime show. Entertaining as always!
Hey James. You can blame me for this. Three or four builders asked me early on about an El Camino and I said yes. This builder was actually going to send a different truck but had an issue and sent the El Camino as a backup. PS - Question for you... please see my redlinederby.com mail.
@@crypttonite to be completely honest, I'm just mad because it's so damn fast!! Great build and congrats on moving on. I'm beyond lucky to have made it through.
El Camino is built from a Chevy Chevelle,. Which is a car. However, cars back then were all still built on ladder box frames. The only place where ladder box frames are still used today are pick up trucks.
That half time show was chaos... Please do more, i love it more than i should
The group race was awesome!
Best half time show ever!
The El Camino had a great day, congrats!
Top racing again!

Great Halftime show. Let me add a vote for continuing that format, at least at halftime.
This channel always provides the most fun races
Nice half time show!!!
SPOILER:
Nice come back Iron Beard!! ❤
And THANKS!! for the build board at the finish line Mark! :)
Easily the best die cast racing on RUclips, loved the half time show.
Awesome cars, awesome racing, awesome video. 🙂
Excellent racing as always! Loved the Losers' Gambit half-time show!
Loved half time. Love the train cam. Quickly becoming one of my favourite die-cast racing channels. Buuuuuuutttt 7:13 it's Ross "chass-TAIN" 💛
Half time show was great!
Best Halftime show to date!! Although; i am intrested in a modified 4-wheeler tournament!!😂😂😂
Best racing channel, great track and amazing races! Anyone can win.
Half time show was brilliant, make it a team tournament and count me in !!
The drift from the gold truck by Strike was perfect - I am biased as it is mine !! 👍🏼
Action was all over the place with this round! And great halftime show!
That halftime show was amazing! Thanks for a great season!
Well shoot I was pulling for you brother

That halftime performance from the gold Ford Lightning truck was impressive!
I think the half time show should be a future series in the making. Congratulations to you on the fantastic work you've put into the scenery, the water in the canyon look superb👏👏👏
That train view is sooo beautiful!!
Fabulous to see the true old school Black walls Ford Bronco turned mountain wood hauler racing with the purpose built race trucks.
East bound and down, Loaded up and truckin',
We gonna do what they say can't be done.
We got a long way to go, and a short time to get there,
I'm East bound, just watch ol' bandit run.

Congratulations to Iron Beard and Russ Roddin, moving up! The Half time was the Bomb!
Amazing half made it down to the finish.

Awesome track, awesome event and brilliantly done.

Excellent Video mate. Loved the half time race😂
That halftime was complete and utter chaos - I’m all for it 🙌🏼
Half-time was awesome! It never occurred to me to test my car running backward. Seems like a critical skill to have on this track!
Another great idea.... seems obvious doesn't it?.....
Great presentation as always - keep up the great work
Great races guys
WOW! What a turn of events ... Great race .. Love the half time show, much better then the bionic butt guy! lol

God damn ! Camera work is great !!!
Awesome race bro,lets gooo
Great race!
Incredible recovery from James Ironbeard!
Congratulation for the moving ons!
I love your camera angle from the train in the U-turn. Hard to time that.
And the music during the great halftime show 👍🤪😂
Did you put a clear guardrail on the „former“ jump?
“Here comes Home Slice… Backing his way in with the beer and the wood!” Apparently Home Slice’s wife is very happy!
Completely cracked up with Snowy Squirt😂😂😂
James Ironbeard did a good impression of someone not wanting to move on... right up until the last two races! Amazing comeback.
The halftime show was great. Would you consider regular races with 8 cars? Glad to see the Elco win.
Yes. I have considered a team entry tournament (2 cars). This halftime segment is sort of a prelude. Looks like viewers are enjoying it.
James "Iron Beard" ohh noo! Lets see how he does on this tough track.
Looking at the big U and such, and thinking back just what, a couple weeks it seems to white walls and 2x4's all over?
If only my own projects went this fast haha
5:22 what a drift from the f150 lightning
need end of season clips of those that roofed it and crossed the finish line.
Brutal loss for JP......but I spied my IDR Coin!
8 cars. Yeahhhhhh
Excellent 👍🏽 🔥
Totally amazing race, again! James Ironbeard, I have issues through that part of the track too... can you teach me that "roll over, go off track, then get on track on your wheels again" move? 🙃
Thanks mark!
Aw man, I'm 42 minutes late. LET'S GO!!!
GTR is getting better all the time! Don't forget to give it the thumbs up and subscribe. Let's all help this channel grow.
Yeaaaaah Maaaaaan
Make your next series on team racing

How is it a car with only 2 seats and a flatbed out the back?
El Camino is built from a Chevy Chevelle,. Which is a car. However, cars back then were all still built on ladder box frames. The only place where ladder box frames are still used today are pick up trucks.
the last part of the track should be removed. does not add anything to the race. just put a nice ramp there
