The divisions that compete at the Rockford Speedway includes: Late Model, Sportsman, American Short Trackers, Road Runners, Hornets, Bandits, Winged Women on Wheels and Figure 8’s. The track also hosts many different touring series including: ARCA Midwest Tour, Big 8 late Model Series, Mid-American Stock Car Series, Illini Racing Series Midgets, Super Cups and more.
Focused on entertaining the fans, Rockford Speedway’s family-oriented racing schedule is nationally known for its innovative events like the ‘Original Trailer Race of Destruction,’ ‘World Famous Figure 8 Trailer Race’ and ‘Night of Thrills.’ The Speedway also welcomes nationally-known monster trucks like Tail Gator, Devastator and Mechanical Mischief along with Doug Rose and his world famous Green Mamba Jet Car.

This is some of the best entertainment on RUclips without question.
I knew something was gonna happen if the caddy kept banging off the rev limiter like that
Crazy dude.....just crazy!
Like a Honda Civic driver
@My Car Won't Start you have to be very skilled to counter aggressive driving in an STI. there's a reason why governing bodies in rallying try to ban turbocharging and four-wheel drive systems. Watch the old rallying documentary" unfair advantage"
Technically you in order to beat an STI with a CTS-V. You would have to drift in and out of the corners. that's the only way a rear wheel drive power car can stand up against an STI
@@vonhellsing6406 except Hondas are much more solid built in some crappy luxury GM car so they can take the abuse
If he had drove anything else it wouldn't have blown up after that abuse and if I'm right it looks like he blew his head gasket
Love the Grand National wheels on the wagon!
Yeah I noticed that too. When he pulled up to the line, I thought maybe he has the engine too, but then he took off and nahhh
I noticed that too. When he pulled up to the line, I wondered if he might have the engine too, but when he took off,I thought nahhh
GN/Turbo Regal hood too.
@@mikeadcock1592 oh its got the motor for sure 🤯
I know who owns the wagon with the Grand National rims
Cleetus really ought to have these spectator drags at the Freedom Factory. That would be a hoot. Run what ya brung.
I think he said he plans to
Ppl will wreck left and right at the freedom factory trying to do this
@@shorty808100 Have you watched any spectator drags on ovals? They run two at a time, side by side for one lap only. Sure, a few folks spin out but since their are only two cars running at any one time, no real damages done.
coming soon!
Wish they would do these everyday.
Blow head gaskets?
i want to go so baddd
I love the wrc subie, a beauty and a beast. But that caddy was in it pretty hard if she hadnt gave out on the last match, loved it, keep em comin.
If he picked any other manufacturer it wouldn't have blown up
@@silasmcgee3647 i have to say, maybe, i love the ls its cheap afforable horsepower, but gm quality has went down over the years.
@@JukeboxAlley looking at the smoke and lack of scattered metal and crunchy sounds It seems he may have just blown his head gasket
Four cylinder against eight cylinder! I love my Scooby cars. I drive a 99' Subaru Outback and you should see it in the dirt....it's AWESOME!!!!!!
That was awesome. The interview you never want to happen...tow truck picking up your vehicle during the interview.
This man really said a Ford duramax 🤣
I heard it too. He needs to turn in his man badge
yeah.... we all know its a ford cummins
Motor City Fats it was clearly a Chevy
@@troykruse5161 for real everyone knows its a chevy powerstroke cant believe the dude called it a ford duramax
It Chevy Duramax
Love these so much!! Thanks man!!
This stuff is epic. "Wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwatch the starter!"
What triggered me is him calling that Subaru a fast and furious car
There was a couple of subies in ff
@@daddymcorklejones7089 Yeah because the Subaru impreza is famous for being in the Fast and Furious movies. Not the 46 wins it has in WRC.
@@Blackend16.61 Only here in the US, over in Europe they recognize the subaru as a legendary rally car and it is very famous
He's a typical jerkoff who rubs out to american muscle. Real car car people appreciate all performance cars. The camaro gets its ass handed to it, but it's beautiful, this, better that. What a tool.
@@tubatits yes
Ford duramax????
yeah.... its like the dodge duramax but looks better
I'm pretty sure that truck was a chevrolet instead
I came to the comments to say the same thing bro thats a Chevy duramax 2015
He called the mustang a Camaro the race before that
The spectator drags is the only place on planet earth where you can find a 1983 corvette along with a Ford Duramax. 😉
I love how the tow truck people just assumed the WRX was the broken one LOL
These are great! Hopefully new races for this year, please!!?
I can remember decades ago there was a guy at the local dragstrip that very often won the money in the bracket class driving a stock 4 cyl automatic trans Pinto. It was bone slow but the driver was consistent in his launch times and the pinto was consistent in its time down the strip which made it very hard to beat.
*I LITERALLY LOOK FORWARD TO THESE!*
Thank you for this, I feeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnn for this 💩 this one, best one of the year.
This is legit STOCK car racing. I love it.
i hope racing like this takes off so we can have ACTUAL stock car racing
Love these, thanks!
My man Chris bragging rights right here.
Not too bad for a four pot! Congrats, bro!
I want to see these ran in literal reverse, imagine seeing these guys try to take a corner going backwards. Would make for an interesting race ;)
I saw a video of them a few days ago that included one race in reverse. It was pretty fun.
That very first race got a good round of applause from me.
Can't wait to come back
Right?? Who could have known an awd rice rocket could beat a freakin' Saturn Aura?? Straight skills bro 👍
@@alexyoungberg5232 ok soo that was a gimme...lol
@@chrisrombough2379 well we know you'd never beat nick in a foot race so I guess it was worth the drive right..?
Next time maybe Alex can get smoked in whatever shitbox he drives? 😄 Oh by the way nice second lap Chris I noticed you snapped the front driver side CV.
@@cayleensawyer9034 lol ...oh you saw that.....
Dude.... this rocked! I think I get my mullet growing
Thanks for that great video. Enjoyed a lot.
Great videos! great entertainment but that track needs a new announcer
I love how the flat deck went to pick up the wrong car too that was GOLD!
The balls of that little neon though mismatched Hood covered in Rust front to back got to love those little junkers
This is so fun to watch. Announcer and crowd. Wish we had it here!
You got a love the caddies burn out at the finish line
BFG Radial T/A is the most over rated tire in history. Must be the white letters
LOL!
But they look good
Pure trash.
Just like BFG KO2s in the off-road/overlanding communities.. most over rated AT tires.
"A 2010 Ford Duramax" 😂😂
I wish these were in every state😂
Great video!
Just to much talking between runs IMO
I kind of agree
As a former central New Yorker born about 20 miles from Fulton, I have an allegiance to C. Rombough. On the other hand, my last name is Schneider, so loyalty there as well. Tough call! Great racing fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CNY for the win 😄😄
@ 5:38 "Hey, here comes the Griswolds."
"Clark, we're on a racetrack! This isn't the shortcut to Wally World."
"Relax, Ellen. I know what I'm doing. I'm going to burn dust on this joker. Eat my rubber."
"Dad, that's burn rubber and eat my dust."
"Whatever, Rusty. You and Audrey sit back and watch your dad do some serious driving with the Family Truckster."
slowest Corvette I've ever seen! lol
Must have been Barbie's dream Corvette
He claimed it was a 83 corvette. There's no such thing as an 83 corvette. Therefore, this car doesn't exist.
The c4 vette won every race in the showroom stock class of scca racing for 3 years straight untill it got banned, i would call that being pretty good on track, but that driver wasn't taking any chances and didn't really have a hope against the cts v
He also said it was an 83 and if I'm not mistaken there was no 83 vette, it may have been 82 but there was a year between c3 and c4 designs where GM didn't produce any vette
@@treyvus3 Ive seen the only example of an 83 Vette which happens to be in the Corvette museum in Bowling Green, KY
Epic as usual!! I picked most of the winners!
Daaaaaage Neeeeyaaan. ❤❤❤ if this guy's not commentating I ain't waaaaatchin'! ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
(Posted by Rick Pickell) These might not have been the fastest races i have ever seen. But they definitely have been entertaining.
He blew the heads off from riding the limiter lmfao
I knew something was about to blow the moment I heard the roar of that engine began to rattle in the background
This my first time watching this and a hit
Hell yeah its been a minute for the spectators
Heck
I would still take the Buick wagon over that caddy.....wagon looks sweet!!!
All cars: "We think we're fast!"
Subaru: "hold my head gasket"
9:07 Ford Duramax? Lol I love this stuff!!
Subaru for the Win !! 💙🌠
I'm in California, I totally want to take a family vacation and hit up the track..a lot of fun just watch.
I can't believe this awesome video doesn't have a million views LOL
This is golden
Love this racing
This is cool thing to watch
The Oldsmobile Alero and that Dodge truck was a real good one 😃😀😆..........
😡👍😤👍 And the last race was awesome 😠👍😡👍
3:25 cant be 83- vette first C4 came in 84'
Its a 93 anniversary edition, probably just a typo
Yeah 90s model at least w that 3rd brake light.
There is one in existence but it is in a museum. They made a few to test the assembly line but only one still remains.
"Are you kidding me. Are you serious?"~ every sport announcer ever.
I've seen a few CTS-V's around and they sounded pretty bad ass, but I didn't know they were that bad ass!
I'm really happy to see this grow and I'll be there soon
The best so far!
I should enter my '66 in one of these races!
Of course that thing blew up. He was using like one gear the whole race
This is awsome!! There should be these races every week in summer!!@makespectatorracesgreatagain
What I wanna know is how they're "cuttin em off" when they're literally staying in their own lane😂
Kinda looked like the subi broke an axle or front diff, in that second run... front wheels shuttered and then the back wheels spun hard
That is a beautiful color on that Vette (#22). I'm not used to seeing burgundy/maroon on them.
Two bad ass cars
What the hell is a '93 40th anniversary 'vette convertible doing out there??!! Oh, and that Buick wagon with the GN wheels looks sweet!!
Aye Cocoa Beach in FL! Represent
*Anyone else think these would be way more entertaining with competent drivers and a competent announcer..?*
*Just me? Ok.*
The drivers being unprofessional is what makes it entertaining. However, "wwwwwwatch the starterrrrr" seems to be confusing to the drivers while also being annoying to the point I would rather put my mouth over a glory hole than listen to him.
They are called SPECTATOR drags. The drivers come out of the stands with their own cars.
Why don't you show us?
@@edwinthebirdbee4623 I did. I'm the guy with the .02 second reaction time. Don't you recognize me..?
Awesome 😎👍👍👍
Keep up the great races
seeing that subie being used to drive oval breaks my heart, but seeing it piss on everything kida fixes it
whats wrong with a subaru driving the oval? at least it didnt crash or anything
He really said 83 corvette. Omg
Love
Rombo vs kenny kline would be the race of the decade
This is my fav thing ever
He keeps saying supercharger but that Gen of CTS V isn't supercharged
Aftermarket superchargers are a thing... lol
Rev limiters are not there for sound purposes, they are there for a safety. Buddy found that out the hard way
They are there to prevent the RPMs from getting high enough to float valves and damage things. All they do is cut spark. You can't kill an engine by "hitting" the rev limiter. It literally just stops firing.
love to see expensive cars involved
Better than corporate nascar
huge fan of these races, but Jesus.. if i owned/ran that track, that reverse race would be a Hard no for me. it's all fun and games until "oopsie" head-on collision at a combined 100mph or more.
The Buick had their left turn signal on LMAO
Wonder how many of these drivers walk to work the day after.
How has nobody hit the watch the starter guy?! Has nobody thought of just jumping the start and veering straight into him 😂😂😂
I believe he's up on the wall.
Cmon cletus... where you at? We need some freedom factory bring your own beast drags asap.
25:25 He kept hitting that rev limiter and the engine had enough, still that Caddy put on a show!!
Announcer forgot to mention car payments
that sti ripped!
Love this shit, keep doing you buddy!! 🤘
Hometown drags.
I used to live right across the street from the speedway. I could watch events from the back porch.
Did you live in a hi-rise?
I like the CTS-V, but the driver drives it like a Honda Civic si from the past Century.
Does the Cadillac only have 1 gear? or......
That Chevy probably hit his kit
Rust is just time release weight reduction.
To be fair the CTS-V sounded like he was in manual mode with the paddle shifts and kept forgetting he was in manual mode, bouncing off the rev limiter all night that was bound to happen
My
Dream
Is to go to this I hope you have a website and info I need to make it to one of these you guys have the best track ever
RockfordSpeedway.com
Love watching these races. But gotta watch it with volume down. That moderator is REALLY obnoxious.
20:43 that sounds like a real racecar
