- Sit down with Rick Ware, Clay Millican, and Brent Leivestad from PFI Speed for some bench racing during the Daytona 500 rain delay.
Folks this was so much fun I hope you enjoy this !!!
As an old guy,watching you “ not quite as old” guys ,sit down without a huge slicked up production and have an hour and a half conversation about the whole of Motorsports and be comfortable with it is refreshing. One exception is Rick’s “ Battleship Blonde “ and my take is…I don’t care about the hair,I care about the square foot of real estate below it.
I would be interested to find out more about the ‘cubic money’ side of the teams. The cost of X amount of signage on a car in NASCAR versus the same amount on the Top Fuel Team.
This is AWSOME clay , we all love RICK !!
I have been following Clay. And Brent for a very long time PFI speed I have been watching for at least 7 years. Not quite as long for clay but I did not know he had a RUclips channel until 2 years ago when I started following him and so many other channels that are in the same genre is so nice to see Rick. Just jump in and start to put in content and let us see what you guys deal with from the big side instead of all of us little guys doing what we do. Thanks for the conversation. It was great
You guys really make a fan feel like part of the team . You guys are the best.
Rick talking about Carlsbad… first thought was Tommy “The Watch Dog “ Allen lol …I’m an east coast kid that wasn’t alive then lol …. I just legitimately love Rick’s passion
Truly amazing ! I can’t say enough about working with two absolute legends! Rick is so full of knowledge and passion for motorsports! This was such a blessing and I look forward to all the fun stuff we are gonna get our selves into !
Three leg ends mate, You do your own version of all of the top stuff, but its the drag racing version,
I bet there are loads of little things you spotted that a few weeks down the line make a little bell ring and it comes in clutch for you guys, any experience like this will take time to resurface, but you are the kind of guy that takes it ALL in.
Hey Brent can u ask clay to Rick if we Can we get Blane and another crew member to be decided the winnners of the competition that Doug started before he sold the team in Larry dixions 2 seat topfuel car they deserve it
WOW Clay, Brent, Rick This was phenomenal. Thanks for taking us along.
Thank You guys for making a fan feel like part of the team , and thank you Mr. Rick W. for being such a cool owner.
Well put
Thanks Rick for being a good sport on letting Clay and Brent have fun the last couple of weeks
Brilliant! Respect Rick!! For letting Clay and Brent in to show us the inner working of RWR .... buy that man a Cold beer! fantastic!
OK, Watching a race on TV, I am only a spectator. Seeing the event through your eyes makes me a participant, even though I am not physically there.
Thanks for reserving us us a place in the stands, in the pits, in the trailers and especially a place with you ON THE TEAM!
Thank you all and keep doing what your doing, last week was the BEST racing coverage I have ever enjoyed, without actually being there!
Oh, and Jeff Lutz added another layer of depth to the week as well, thanks to Jeff as well!
I just want to say that I gave up on NASCAR 15 years ago, and I was one of those kids that lived and breathed the sport. Bedroom full of posters, every diecast I could spend my allowance on, coke bottles, the works. I just lost interest as the newer cars moved in. This Daytona 500 was the first NASCAR race I have watched in that entire 15 year span, and I enjoyed it. You can credit Clay's and Brent's social media for that. 100% Team #RWR now! I'm looking forward to the season for Clay and both NASCAR teams. I really hope you guys see the good Brent can bring to the family, and have him back for more events because there is no better hype man on the planet than him! The last two weeks of content from Brent and Clay have been phenomenal, and is more fun and entertaining than any of the traditional media could ever be. Thank you again for letting them both share all of the behind the scenes with us.
After watching you guys racing top fuel then the daytona race l thank you Rick as the team owner for allowing us to be part of your team watching all the action and letting cameras in l think with the people you have in front of cameras on videos you are going to be one of the great teams of various motor sports the passion you show is what make people want to do good for you sir being an Australian who worked in our top level of the sport v8 supercars it great to see your passion for the sport and l think if you go down the utube line you will get a hell of a following great teams and great people always rise to the top be safe and be fast
How many Team Owners have we seen doing the type of things like Rick does, we get to see a side of Racing never showed too us, Rick is so down too Earth and such a Cool guy, I really enjoyed this and I hope this turns into something good for Brent.
Garlits, Mickey T, Rick Ware, Brent, Clay - Pioneers cutting the paths. Thanks very much for your time. Rick, that you trod the same ground, breathed the same air, in the same vicinity as Mickey Thompson is just awesome, lest we forget! Thanks again
Absolutely!!! I came here because of PFI and Cleetus. My first Clay video is when he put PFI speed on the side of his car!! I am so interested on the background of how these teams move and is working great at bringing all of motorsports together!!
Speaking as a motor head, I love racing of any type. Rick is my kinda guy. I could see sitting down with a cold one with him. That cannot be said about many car owners. Thanks Rick for being the exception.
My question to you is are you going to share your social media openess benefits to other owners or you going to keep it to yourself?
Thank you rick ! Rwr racing = for the people, thanks for bringing those of us who can't be there , into the heart of the excitement and sharing that with us , you rock 👍
OK!!! New crossover from Clay’s channel. Thank you Rick, Clay, Brent. Fascinating insights. This is the type of thing we love! I was glued for the entire show, and you guys (accept it) probably couldn’t talk long enough to tire us out. The more the better, please keep it coming. Clay, especially the inside on the top fuel operation. Having been a drag racing fan since the 80s, I just want more and more details…those last thousandths as Brent says.
I just love that Rick is so down to earth and approachable!! His willingness to absorb what comes as it comes is very entertaining!! Best of luck in the 500 and all future RWR events!! So glad to see my boy Brent be able to enjoy such an awesome adventure. And Clay.... what can I say about Clay... he's like a best friend that you just want to see do well. Thanks for your time to do this!!!
Well said!
Love the reference of the Lord and keeping things in perspective while still being all in
Great Video just wanted to share when I was a kid 12 years old in 1978 my Daddy used to take me English town Raceway Park for Summer Nationals so I got to see all the greats. Big Daddy , Cha Cha Muldowney, The Snake and The
Mongoose, Connie Kaletta man what a great time to be alive!!! Live your stuff great guys your hooked up with!!!!! Keep Stomping and God Bless.
VERY WELL PUT
Thank you very much. Huge pat on the back to Rick for allowing the Cleetus collaboration and welcoming Brent into the family! I said it in the comments of the top fuel Bradenton series that it’s obvious RWR sees the potential value of social media! Can’t wait to see more collaborations in the future as I know yall have the potential to reach millions and spread positivity and hook millions of new fans! Been a top fuel / drag racing fan for decades y’all brought me back to nascar as well!
This was amazing ! Please do it again . Rick Ware is an amazing owner and its nice to see the man behind the teams .
That was some of the easiest watching of an hour and a half interview I have ever done. Thanks for letting Brent hang out and create some awesome content for Clay and himself. I couldn't click on them 2 videos fast enough when I saw them!
I see Brent bringing the PFI shop and family to Florida now that Bandimer is closed.
Thank you Rick, Clay and Brent for the racing you have put on and videoed it is much appreciated including giving Ruby a half track concussion, what a show great work please keep it coming.
Love Brent and Clay. Y'all are the best! Rick for the win...
This is one of the best podcasts, that I have watched. The candid and honest answers were insane. A big thank You to Rick Ware for the honesty with his responses. I also had a great laugh watching as I am a huge Drag Racing and NASCAR fan. I would love to see you in Supercars.. Down Under, I think that your model could kick some but.!
These past few weeks with Clay, Brent, and Cleetus’ videos has made me into a Rick Ware Racing fan! Awesome work guys!!!
Appreciate it, love to have you guys see it grow man. The younger generation needs to step up. Thank you so much.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂😂😊😊😊😊
Super Happy brent is involved hopefully this opens more doors for him.
No huge racing fan, but hearing about the business details and strategy involved has me more interested! Thank you guys!
What a great video I can see the passion Rick has and it matches clays and Brent's. What a cool way to show the world.
Awesome interview! Rick is the coolest race team owner of all time!
What a group. Love the heart and soul Incredible watch. Some much knowledge in one room. Thank you for sharing 🙏
This video literally is better and better the longer you watch
yes!!!!!! more cleetus, and brent............ this has been amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was probably the best video I have watched. The insight into the trio was amazing. Thank you.
Very insightful interview - thanks Rick! And your hosts did great too - natural interviewers 🙂
Great frikin vid. RWR with Brent and Cleetus will be a great publicity venture. If you look at Clay's channel growth over the last 2 weeks it's obvious that collaboration with Brent and Cleetus is so successful!
great stuff clay and brent!!!! Mr Rick thank you!!!
Thank you guys for your time. Enjoyed this!!
I am now a Rick Ware fan. I watch PFI Brent from the first YT Video also his lead me to Clay YT What a discussion!!
Great Video. Very transperent- thank you ! What a great Trio. Brent, Clay & Rick are killing it!
Best interview ever! I wish RWR the very best this year😊- I learned so much!
What a awesome sit down PFI and Cleetus got me into Clay and this team hopefully Brent is Part of RWR full time soon!!!
So cool that you and Rick have Brent with you.
I could watch this all day. You guys are the best!
I liked it and would watch more ......love from the Netherlands
This was great! I feel like I've got to know Rick better. Like others have said, he's down to earth and approachable.
He's the kind of person that's no nonsense and doesn't want excuses, just results. But he doesn't belittle people. He seems like the type that would give you the opportunity to learn from the error and improve from it. It's because he's done the same work.
I really enjoyed his perspective.
He's the person I would want to work for.
I hope to see the three of ya'll again for another video format like this later this year.
Really enjoyed the sit down interview. I've been following Clay, Brent, Lutz and now this. Thank you!
Thank you for this content. Really enjoyed this to show us the fans how down to earth. You are as a team. And. to mention God first before everything else. You are top notch.
I do hope that this Season will be huge for RWR. ALL THE BEST
Great video, guys . I'm a very big cletus fan, and now I've joined you guys because of cletus. That race against ruby definitely shows the power and speed of your car, Clay. You have a new fan now .
This has to be the first time I non-stopped watched a RUclips video this long. So, entertaining,insightful,educational, and just all around three great guys to watch. Looking for to seeing what all of RWR does this season especially can't wait to see Clay and Cleetus do the reverse track deal. Although, Cleetus needs to either put in the 6.90 tune in Ruby or bring Mullet for that. Looking forward to hopefully being able to make Gainesville if not this year but definitely next year.
Guy’s, you are now my favorite team. I’ve been a big fan of NASCAR and Top Fuel for many years….Rick, Clay, Brent you got me hooked ….. GO TEAM!
Thank you RW for giving a different community the chance to see and enjoy what you have to offer!
It was cool to hear Rick started out in life as a drag racing fan. All motorsport racing is cool but anyone who has been hooked on nitro will always be hooked on nitro. I'm glad Rick and RWR found their way back into the world of drag racing. 🙂
Let's go! RWR for the win! I'll be watching The Daytona 500 for the first time in over 10 years because of RWR
Great session very interesting. Hope to see you all together again. FIRE ME UP!
Great vid guys!
I never knew who Rick was nor his back ground. He’s a cool cat isn’t he?!!
This collab was not on my 2024 bingo card but IM HERE FOR IT! lol love all this!
Mr Ware is such a down to earth guy.
so, even though you missed top slot, you did get to do this! fantastic conversation... top fuel has been a mystery to many of us since the 80's...
Rick has to be one of the coolest people I've encountered
Really good Stuff!❤ Keep it coming.... Thanks!
Awesome stuff, was fun to watch the 15 and 51 yesterday, what an ending. Be good guys
What a Collab hats off to all three of you and the teams involved hoping to make a fuel race this year possible even Gainesville coming up I’m coming from the motor city cars are my life would be a dream come true
Brent and Clay sent me!!! #letsgo
Clay, as a long time fan of Blue Thunder and yourself, THANK YOU for convincing Rick to waste a few hours for "us pplz" recording these videos...see you at Pomona!
i love the behind the curtin nascar stuff as well that was sooooo cool Rick you got to bring Brent to the coke 600 or southern 500
Rick is awesome.
great conversation, thanks Rick Ware for sharing your insight as an owner, and more importantly as a race fan!
What a great special, stomp on that loud peddle Cliff Queensland Australia 🇦🇺 🇺🇲
I think Geoff Lusz would made a good crew guy 😅 keep up the good work guys😂
First, thank you for a great conversation.
Second, It is wierd to see Brent with clean hands at a racetrack. 😂
😂 tell me about it
Rick Ware Sir things like this and doing colabs with Brent, Jeff and Cleetus has mad you the Peoples Team Owner. Please keep it up and dont change.
two things happened that i never thought would happen, especially from a full blown race team, its the dyno and running next to another car that was not a dragster. its always been taboo and was so cool to see happen
Ruby has a broken crank. I believe that when you went past the sudden explosion through the ground and air broke the crank.
Enjoyed learning about Rick's start in the race world.
Enjoyed it. Liked Rick explaining some of his business thinking, how things generally work on that end. Always like hearing well thought out vision casting.
I think you all have all done extremely well at blowing the internet up. Brent did well, Cleetus and crew, all the Tuber crews associated with Brent, Cleet , Clay hanging out, commenting, posting videos.
The event blew up the internet because of yall and blew up about half of Stevie Fast Jacksons
Shake n Bake show. Courtney Enders and Flo Racing did really well and yall were a big part of that.
See a top fuel car pass a fast car and not like any "passing" most have ever seen , well, that pretty much broke the internet, some say so many people gasped that it caused the earthquake rumbles in Texas.
At any rate, I feel sure sponsors are very happy, they are getting a Lot more exposure than they would normally at a race, perhaps any race.
I've never seen so much readily accessible coverage of any race, add to that, its a type of coverage one really never gets to see.
Rick is a blessing to motorsports and has some nice "life/business advice" for those that listen well.
Blessings guys and, tell Brent to turn his dang hat around - your wasting good ad space!! Grin.
This was great!
Y’all (Brent / Clay) might wanna link to this on y’all’s own channels, to steer people to this (RWR) channel.
We sure will be
Have a grand race season for you all!
Bought 2 4-day tickets for Norwalk!!! I am hopeful we can meet.
Bless UP❣️
This was fantastic, thank you for putting it together!
This was awesome. Can't wait to see yall run it back
Awsome pod cast i really enjoy this content.
Wow, just found your channel from Clay, really excited to see where you go with this platform!!!
Love this. Nice to have this type of discussion and access. I’ve followed Brent for a while through Cleetus but now I’m a subscriber of clay and rick ware racing. Thanks for allowing all this!
I subscribed because I want to see more. Enjoyed the whole show
That was awesome! Keep up the good work Guys!
Rwr has a new fan here!!!
Thanks for sharing. Nobody else is willing to share this information or the experiences.
That closing statement to me sounded like ricks looking to get Brent or cleetus into a funny car 👀👀😂
Loved this sit down. Thanks for taking us subscriber's along for the ride. Very enjoyable to see an insight to rick himself. 👍✌️🤙🤙😎😁🍀🍀🍀🍀🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
This interview was the best!. Hope there are more in the future. Stomp that loud peddle!.
Wow. I had no idea Rick was from SoCal. He and I are only 4 years apart and when he was talking about all the racing stuff in our area back then, that brought back a ton of memories! We did all the same stuff! lol
Awesome run these past few weeks
Thanks for sharing!
Great interview, great insight
Wow! What a great vid! You guys are all awesome!
Loved all of this, Am I the only one who could sit and watch 6 hours of this, all very open and honest, really honest from Mr Ware, so much insight for a humble fan like myself.
Hey guys love all the content and I thank Rick for letting you guys let the RUclips community into his business world it’s so fricken cool ( trying to stay in the guidelines) love it and keep it up #RWRACINGBESTINMOTORSPORTS
That was a really cool video. Well done to you, Clay and Brent. More of that sort of stuff please.
Keep up the good work
Love the look behind the scenes
Great show! Thanks for reading my question! Super cool to have Mr. Ware sit still long enough to get to know him. Very much looking forward to future shows to get know the people that make up the teams.
Awesome thanking all for doing this it was great to hear from Rick on racing team ownership. The top fuel car on the dyno with Cleetus is going to take some topping. Jimo would have been thinking the worlds going to end but that video has been viewed one million times not bad
Thank you. So good to listen to you three talk. Can wait to hear and see more from the RWR
