Theres equipment EVERYWHERE in that full freedom factory 1-take 😂 you have a full time job keeping up with that place, and that crew 😂 never disappoints though, grass always looks too notch 😎
I think the FF might actually be too small for an FD event. On top of that Cleeter would definitely have to get all of the track surface repaired first.
haha yep ,HOWEVER..... ive watched a bunch of his drift runs on video and that guy did seem like he damn near stopped as he was swinging around to enter that drift turn didnt he? It looked like he was really hung out farther and slower than most guys are entering that turn where Cleeter bumped into him.
@@warrenmichael918 benefit of the doubt, maybe he tried to enter as if it was FD and was trying to fill outside zones or something, not everything is always closest on the inside clipping.... idk trying to find a reason why he was so wide and slow >_
Into a pattented jackstand sales pitches ,"well yesir if you need more power I got just the thing you need get your all you nos needs a motion race works"!!
Saw someone at Tibby's restaurant in Brandon wearing a Pistons Rods and Dad bods shirt. Gave him a hell yeah brother and he gave me a hell yeah brother back. Second time spotting merch in Brandon.
I was wearing a dad bods shirt to Publix and saw a brother in a stand back I built this sh*t myself shirt and from across the produce section gave him a big hell yeah brother and we are now friends... Here in Gardendale, Al, just north of Birmingham
The “one take” reminds me of Top Gears celebrity timed lap they did every season, ..you ought to continue inviting car celebs , or celebs of anything to do a drift lap in your 240. Guarantee Pastrana and Ken Block would be down and you’ve had tons of the tip already here for the freedom 500(s)! You’re changing the game brother! 👍👍
You can tell he's such a pro-drifter considering he is on your F-N door every turn and almost cutting you out on those chases but still barely letting you lead! Frickin badass!!
I was wondering something similar. How difficult would it be for Cleet to open the Freedom Factory to local drifters on the weekend? Kinda like they do in Japan. I wonder what kind of insurance that would take.
It would be VERY hard to pull business away from The Rusty Wallace Race Experience at Orlando Speed World, and The Skip Barber Racing School at Sebring. (Daytona & Homestead-Miami also have classes)
@@paperboy371 my thoughts exactly. “Gee, do I wanna go drift with some dude I never heard of, OR DO I WANT TO GO TO THE FREEDOM FACTORY???” No brainer. Sorry Rusty.
Nice to hear you’ve been reading the comments about the overuse of the drift wand! You have the ability to throw the car without it, just need that confidence to keep the hand away and you I think you done a damn sweet job of that!
Hey Cleetus great video man! This winter here's a fun project, I'd like to see old Jack stand do. Weld two of the same model cars together, side by side with an I beam or square tube framework, about 2 or 3 feet apart from each other, with the frame connections being able to pivot up or down, on removable pin like hinges, at each frame mount, (to easily separate the cars by pulling the hinge pins), but to account for the different angles of ground under each car, as they drift around corners side by side, or fly in together, drifting through the track entrance. That would be a challenge to any drift driver, because to drift and change drift directions in turns, both drivers would have to change their speed, faster or slower, because your car would always be on the same side but either leading or trailing. The challenge is definitely there and so is the comedy as each pair of drivers tries for the first time anywhere.... Parallel Drifting! The drivers have to work together to drift and turn or they'd look like two rookies no matter how good they both are! Lol. I Just think it would be a lot of fun, definitely different, would draw a lot of attention from the drift world, while creating a cool challenge for any drifters who tried it. Definitely use it as a special segment to fill in during events. Just thinking outside the box, again! Later Cleetus! Jpol.
Its the way he was flicking the throttle, you can hear that he punches it harder than cleet then also snaps off the throttle faster. Yes its more power but its also more confidence of knowing when to go and when to whoah.
Let's also observe his reactions when it does happen... the sincerity is real.. and he will be the first to admit that he did something wrong.. not try to blame it on someone/something else
Takeaways from this video: cleetus is a heck of a driver but he’s used to Vaughn and Chelsea who are much more full send with their cars. Matt is a heck of a driver for picking up on the freedom factory so quickly.
Vaughn and Chelsea are more of the “fun-haven’t” style where Matt is more of a pro competitor but all are excellent drifters in their own way. Love all this drift content on the channel!
I think it’s more of a, those 2 change how they drive when it’s with cleetus. They just go full send. Where as Matt was still in “pro mode” so to speak, not really just send it. Also he has never done anything with cleetus to know how he drives, vaugh and Chelsea have a lot of practice together and know how each are gonna do in situations.
Awesome video! Matt Field definitely needs to come back more often! One of my favorite drivers to watch rip. Cool af to get to see him rip the FF with ol Cleeter
Having a hood on mullet has corrupted the team, now there's a hood uprising everywhere cleetus turns, before he knows it leroy will be a full body car again 😂😂
Love the Freedom drifting but the real excitement is all the old light poles are all up rooted and the new mini-sun Led's laying in the grass waiting for pro poles!!!
The Bradenton strip has a good owner and management. Garret has enough on his hands. They should do cross promotion and such to help build both tracks but other than that they should stay in their lane.
Matt knows soo much about setup and technique. Phenomenal teacher so is he gives any advice take it in for sure 💯. This was awesome! Dope video dude. So sick
9:22 Cleet: “we need more power” James: *pulls out walkie talkie* “aight guys bring in the donnie kit” *3 long bed Chevy pickup trucks drive up, a bunch of old white guys get out, 90 seconds later donnie has a nitrous kit with a 500 shot*
Loved it. Matt's a great cat. Nice to see him do some Florida Man stuff. The FD Vette did well for his first time out. Keep up the collabs. Outstanding content.
@@YotaakGFX I'm wondering what cars are actually going. They obviously can't drive Mullet, Leroy, and Ruby unless they have a third driver. And Cleetus was talking about driving Tom Bailey's nova for drag week... IDK lol.
Cleet: Well guys, Month of Freedom is over.... Also Cleet: So here's a bunch of new cool content right before RMRW starts, which I will be posting everyday from....
@@fast97z24 you make no sense? No shit if your gonna use the hand brake. But he's driving with his hand on it while he's not using it. Ask any pro FD driver. Lol your a smart ass aren't you.
@@fast97z24 lol your comments are the definition of being a smartass lol. But yea obviously you missed the point of my comment His hand is on the handbrake to much and not on the wheel enough He even said it his self that he's using the handbrake to much. And if your resting your damn hand on there your now likely gonna use it more. God bless brother and have a good one
@wojecire you ain’t even lying. Those guys know how to do it right. They are the true burnout champions and know how to build a motor that is correct for the sport
Just think....it wasn't all that long ago that he was "trying out" drifting with leroy. His runs around FF with the new engine in Donnie and then the tandems on the last few videos look great to me. It seems like he can drive anything and he gets good at it very quickly.
With all The Drifters you have been drifting with and all the little secrets you've learned from all of them you may become one of the best Freedom Drifters around. Hell yeah brother. I think you should try to go into Pro FD would be hilarious.
Respect to the man for putting his car in danger and staying close to Cleet in those tight figure 8s. Staying close to Cleet to make him focus harder and learn some more about drifting
one hell of a job, and you (especially after seeing you in Bailey's car, for example) shows that you are a very capable and talented driver! ..but you ALWAYS want to improve, ALWAYS.. which really makes it a real pleasure to watch you drive over the years, currently and into the future (AND you always try to have the best and proper safety gear. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
C5 prices are going up crazy right now. But you can find some good drift beaters for $11,500 with like 170k miles. C5 Z06 are in the $25k range with low miles.
Cleetus is on anther level compared to almost anyone else famous in the automotive field, and he give us such a diverse selection of content, and a lot of it
So how long before Ole Cleet gets a full on Formula D car? It’s gotta be in the near future! Also, be sure to sign the RPM act letter to your congress person. If your not sure, go and watch PFI speed’s video about their fine. Voting has consequences too. 👍🏼
I watch all content call me fanboy whatever, but I didn’t really like the drifting very much but I love it now just seeing the progression with ol cleet! It’s awesome , the crazy car control of drifting at high speed in the banks is just nuts!!!
Track entry is absolutely siiiiiiiiick guy ! Bald eagle soaring then touch down makes the hair on my arms stand straight up. Both of ya killed it. Best damn Chanel on the Tube hands down.
Man when he did that 180 whip around thing at the start of the one take as a correction i was hootin n hollerin lol. Dude is definitely on a different level
@@AlexZanderMuro exactly. I literally never realized the difference between a great drifter and an expert. Beginner and great are easy to spot the differences. I thought of cleeter as an expert, then Matt showed up and I realized Holy sht this is another level
Pro drivers seem to consistently carry more angle for longer. Not sure if that’s a mechanical difference or a confidence/control level Cleet hasn’t reached yet, or most likely a little of both.
They have way more power and mechanical grip so they can carry more momentum! Matt had way more grip in the car you could tell every time he was on throttle he would surge
this daily content is so bloody awesome man !!! It's so freaking good for the channel brining in more views more subs which leads too more funding for the Freedom Factory !! love it !!!!!!
Comparing Matt's car to garrets is much like saying a highschool football player is good, bit not as good as a professional . The two cars are on different levels and serve a very different purpose .
WHO THINKS CLEETUS SHOULD INVITE A ASPHALT RACECAR AND SEE HOW FAST THEY CAN GO AROUND THE TRACK. THEN THEY SHOULD SEE IF DONNIE IS FASTER WHILE DRIFTING THE TRACK CAUSE I THINK THEM DRIFT CARS ARE GETTIN IT. HELL YA BROTHER DO IT FOR DALE AND DO IT FOR NEIGHBOR ED.
FINALLY ,,,,,, NOW I get it....... That was CRAZY!. Took me a LONG time to not dislike drifting. That ONE TAKE did it for me,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,AWESOME

Freedom factory looks so much bigger without the light poles. Crazy
Also if there isn't an FD event at the Freedom factory, there's something wrong
They don't have the pit space right now. I could definitely see it in a few years though.
I think the FF might actually be too small for an FD event. On top of that Cleeter would definitely have to get all of the track surface repaired first.
@@Studio23Media They definitely have the space its jut not paved.
@@Studio23Media They have more than enough pit space.
The track itself is too small for Formula D's style.
At 15:21 when Matt takes off and drifts high along the wall, I got huge chills. Amazing!
That shit was epic
"I'm going to try to use less handbrake"
Runs into fd corvette on first run
Immediately goes back to grabbing handbrake on next run lol
haha yep ,HOWEVER..... ive watched a bunch of his drift runs on video and that guy did seem like he damn near stopped as he was swinging around to enter that drift turn didnt he? It looked like he was really hung out farther and slower than most guys are entering that turn where Cleeter bumped into him.
@@warrenmichael918 yeah no the fd guy seemed to slam on the brakes
@@warrenmichael918 He's done it in competition too. Chelsea Denofa tapped him good in Atlanta on a transition.
@@warrenmichael918 benefit of the doubt, maybe he tried to enter as if it was FD and was trying to fill outside zones or something, not everything is always closest on the inside clipping.... idk trying to find a reason why he was so wide and slow >_

Tandem drift wars at the FF:
Team Vette- Cleetus and Matt
Team Mustang- Vaughn and Chelsea
Team Miata- Taylor Ray and Ben
This. Needs. To. Happen.
I third this 💡 idea, this would be an EPIC show
I'd LOVE to see this!
Team 240- Adam and Cooper?
@@GravyLeg87 haven't seen cooper in quite a while. Wondering if something went down between them?

Whatever happened to WheelMan? He had a celebrity laping/interview series
If it has a motor Travis will be there.
Not changing but expanding it getting out to a much broader audience
Pastrana and Ken Block can only drive in there sponsors cars same with most racers who have a car manufacturer as there sponsor.
Rest In Peace #43
I'm pretty sure that jack stand on James's shirt has been recalled by Harbor Freight .
Its crazy how fast those FD cars are. He closes the distance to Cleetus so fast on the high banks.
It's all that mechanical grip with sticky tires, and obviously the power on tap.
@@bigdfitness5020 that procharger is power on tap
Ikr, the second he new where cleet was going he closed the gap and was right there!!!
THat just shows the difference between a maybe a low level pro spec car/Pro Am car and a full blown PRO car its insane
1000hp and stickys will do that!
dude, matt's control of his car on the small figure 8's chasing is wild
Really showed the difference in how dialed the cars are probably driver difference, Cleet needs to learn that FD snap from angle to angle.
Locked rear diff, supercharger torque/throttle response, and as much angle as a protractor will help with that 🤣😂
You can tell he's such a pro-drifter considering he is on your F-N door every turn and almost cutting you out on those chases but still barely letting you lead! Frickin badass!!
His turns were crisp AF. He is a damn good driver.
How long before the “Freedom Factory Drift Academy” is a thing. Perfect venue.
I was wondering something similar. How difficult would it be for Cleet to open the Freedom Factory to local drifters on the weekend? Kinda like they do in Japan. I wonder what kind of insurance that would take.
It would be VERY hard to pull business away from The Rusty Wallace Race Experience at Orlando Speed World, and The Skip Barber Racing School at Sebring. (Daytona & Homestead-Miami also have classes)

Shout out Matt Field for spreading the Driftvette love. Helping the likes of Garrett and Dave O’Egan at Drift Games.
Dave should have stuck to arranging and commenting for drift events, he was much better at it and the UK drift scene has died since he left
Yes! Managed to snag the shirt this time. Sold out so fast last time. Also to be fair Donnie actually looks better with his hood.
hot dang that bow tie unit Matt is flickn sounds like a chorus of angels straight from RPM heaven.

Man…the way he could stay RIGHT on you during those figure 8’s 😳
Ol boy got some talent for sure
He has the extra power and grip to compensate being a pro car, but you still gotta have quick reactions
Its the way he was flicking the throttle, you can hear that he punches it harder than cleet then also snaps off the throttle faster. Yes its more power but its also more confidence of knowing when to go and when to whoah.
Pro drivers respect Cleetus because he don’t care he’ll put it on your door no matter who you are… that takes balls
To be fair Vaughn taught him.
They also know he can pay for any damage if ever needed.
Let's also observe his reactions when it does happen... the sincerity is real.. and he will be the first to admit that he did something wrong.. not try to blame it on someone/something else

@@Matty.Hill_87 Titanium. It makes your exhaust have a completely different ring to it.

Cleet needs to buy that dragstrip next door to complete the factory
Why would he? He is good friends with the owner
The Bradenton strip has a good owner and management. Garret has enough on his hands. They should do cross promotion and such to help build both tracks but other than that they should stay in their lane.
if they ever decide to sell it im sure he would be the first person they go to...but why ruin a good thing when its not needed

I didn’t ever think I would see the day when Cleetus would have a hood. But I like it.
Technically the third car with one now..the C7, Mullet and now Donnie
You need to get Ken block down there in hoonicoorn
Ken block can’t, he’s sponsored by Subaru again. :/
Hoonicorn is no longer.
Cleetus likes to drive with real drivers not want to be awd drifters
No better way to improve in Donnie than learn the Vette drift King himself.
That guy sure was amazing....no disrespect to Cleet because he is awesome also....literally had me mesmerized !!
Track entry is absolutely siiiiiiiiick guy !
Bald eagle soaring then touch down makes the hair on my arms stand straight up. Both of ya killed it.
Best damn Chanel on the Tube hands down.
Matt just showed everyone there are levels to drifting
Man when he did that 180 whip around thing at the start of the one take as a correction i was hootin n hollerin lol. Dude is definitely on a different level
@@AlexZanderMuro exactly. I literally never realized the difference between a great drifter and an expert. Beginner and great are easy to spot the differences. I thought of cleeter as an expert, then Matt showed up and I realized Holy sht this is another level
Pro drivers seem to consistently carry more angle for longer. Not sure if that’s a mechanical difference or a confidence/control level Cleet hasn’t reached yet, or most likely a little of both.
Pro drifters have a better suspension allowing them to do so. Helps them gain the extra angle they need, better but expensive parts.
A lot of it will fall on the chassis setup and engine power difference.
It's a mechanical grip/ suspension set up thing. grip in drift is way more important than a lot of people understand.
They have way more power and mechanical grip so they can carry more momentum! Matt had way more grip in the car you could tell every time he was on throttle he would surge
Yeah that's what i was saying..u can see Matt's car just steps right out and cleet has to work for it.. same with gittin Jr
This dude, Adam LZ, TRay, and Gitten Jr would be a killer video.
this daily content is so bloody awesome man !!! It's so freaking good for the channel brining in more views more subs which leads too more funding for the Freedom Factory !! love it !!!!!!
I swear cleet you are improving video after video with drifting. Its my fave sport and to see you jump in and kill it is just amazing
Good luck tonight with the start of rocky mountain race week!!!
Just two bald eagles soaring through the air. So majestic
He should should name a car garret and put a garret turbo in it so he can name the video garret puts a garret in garret
Sponsor by garret SOON
I love seeing your track because every time you post a video of it the pavement just keeps getting darker and darker
Always awesome to see you enjoying the Freedom Factory.
Hoping to see James out doing more drifting at some point too
Donnie needs a nice wing hangin off back n some proper drift alloys would look the business now it’s got the sick wrap! 🤘🏻
I remember someone sent him a wing for Donnie in fan mail but he said he wasn't the biggest drift wing fan
@@btdisalvo88 even a ducktail would set it off nicely 👌🏻
Matt’s just ON HIS ASS lmao. Running him down every second
Dude, make the McFarland marine shirts in some quality men’s tank tops. For Dale’s sake, it’s summer in Florida.
That’s what scissors are for.
Real Floridian's just cut the sleeves off
Cool to see FD drivers at the FF. Mattfield was one of the first fd drivers i started to root for
This is the ONLY channel that needs a double thumbs up! HELL YEAH!
Oh heck there goes them duke boys again!
Edit : OMG they Ran Over that little child 19:05 did u see that poor little guy
LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!
😫
Wait... has anyone seen a lil' boy?... goes by the name....
TOBYYYYY!!!
NOOOOO!!!....🤦♂️
@@670fastcrf - Toby No More!
Hoodless is Ruby's thing she has established dominance.
I thought Cleeter's car was fast, but the other one is on a different level.
It is fast. But yeah that thing is amazing. Very expensive to go from Donnie to a pro drift car though.
Comparing Matt's car to garrets is much like saying a highschool football player is good, bit not as good as a professional .
The two cars are on different levels and serve a very different purpose .
Donney=entry level comp
Rocket= Amateur comp
XXXXXXX= pro drift
Basicly I'm sure I'm useing the wrong term for rocket but you get the idea
I love Real Americans that Blow our Minds with Content like This, So Awesome!!!!👍🏻
@19:25 cleeters a God dang ripper! That was sick!
I picture dudes rolling up on the freedom factory and knocking on the door like my neighbors as a kid. "Madi, can Cleet come out and play??"
his name is garrett
@@fletcherhorton6505 I'm aware...but the Cleet persona is just too fuckin good.
@@94XJ yeah mate
WHO THINKS CLEETUS SHOULD INVITE A ASPHALT RACECAR AND SEE HOW FAST THEY CAN GO AROUND THE TRACK. THEN THEY SHOULD SEE IF DONNIE IS FASTER WHILE DRIFTING THE TRACK CAUSE I THINK THEM DRIFT CARS ARE GETTIN IT. HELL YA BROTHER DO IT FOR DALE AND DO IT FOR NEIGHBOR ED.
I’m just hoping that the freedom factory becomes a round for the FF season
FD?
@@sam_s_ yeah, I wasn’t paying attention. To much freedom to worry about spelling
@@reaganthompson5499 Got it. Wasn't trying to be the spelling police, just wasn't sure if you meant something else.
I'm sure ol' Cleet didn't mean Formula Ford...
@@MrTimbrown34 I mean he’d do it if he could ls swap one 😂
The smoke coming off Donnie was insane on last 1 take! Cleet is a madman! Love this channel!
FINALLY ,,,,,, NOW I get it....... That was CRAZY!. Took me a LONG time to not dislike drifting. That ONE TAKE did it for me,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,AWESOME
