Thanks for watching! See you at the track!
That may be the biggest smile Jesse has had while working on a car
I wish I could give this video 100 likes. I think Jesse did great for his first time. He’ll be faster once you get the car set up and dialed in, he has to remember with Dirt Daddy driving, the car wasn’t exceptionally fast. Anyhow AWESOME you all are back at the track!!!!!! Huge thank you to the whole #HTF family for allowing Jesse the opportunity to drive. There’s so many life lessons to learn from this video, trust, thoughtfulness, friendship, helpfulness, proud of the #HTF family. After all Jesse have fun, don’t get caught up in the moment and forget its all about having fun!!!!
I know I'm just one of thousands of fans, but I'm proud of you and for you. As a huge fan of dirt track racing here in Tennessee I'm ready to be back at the track. Best of luck to all of you guys. Have fun and stay safe.
Last run looked real good Jesse. I've always wanted to race but never had the chance to do it. Just live in the moment and take it lap by lap. Can't wait to see what y'all do this coming weekend. Good luck, God bless, and hammer down!!!
Looking good in the track! Can't wait to see the race and the Hunt The Front crew back at the track ! May God bless you all !
Awesome video Jonathan 👍👍👍. I think Jesse done really well and he’s going to get even better. It’s great that HTF is giving him the opportunity to race. Thanks
Seems like he’s comfy in the car. Happy for y’all. If you don’t have any gloves let me know and we will send you some.
I'd say send him some anyway he should not be in a car with out them on
That's nice of you God bless you 🙏
Exactky what I was thinking. I have extras I can send
Jesse did great out there very consistent especially once he found his own lil groove im over all very impressed lots of respect to yall
First of all I'd like to say that this is pretty darn Awesome of the Hunt The Front family to allow Jesse this opportunity. Through the first two practices he looked nervous and definitely gained a bit of confidence going into his 3rd session. Awesome to see y'all running again and good luck this weekend. The HTF fans will be cheering for you all.
My father who passed in 2005 told me the same line you used! “Go fast! But under control!” I still tell everyone I race with the same line
Looking good Jesse, that's a whole lotta race car to manage and you were doing a great job. Good luck this weekend!
We thought you did great, Jesse! You'll be fine, no worries. Looking forward to watching the race here in Iowa, and we'll be rootin' for you!
I'm impressed, especially towards the end! Really good laps!
Dam this was so good to see...Gee ever since I started watching HTF Jesse has always been so keen for a go in a late model and ya'll made if happen. This is just what speedway is all about ,good friends having great fun together. Working on the cars all week then racing on the weekends..... All the best next weekend HTF ......
I think he did a great job, looked solid for just jumping in the car! That 604 with those big tires is no slouch, awesome job!
Best of luck to you all. May the good lord be with y’all and keep your family safe. Make them memories with the family and love everyday like there’s no tomorrow. Race on!
Hello from Iowa, great to see you mashin it Jesse!!
Awesome job Jesse! Your doing the one thing I have been wanting to do my entire life. Keep your head up and keep throwing that dirt my man!
Boy looked good ! Better laps at the end , but he’s going to be in the hunt ! Good you guys are helping him out and letting him use your stuff , that’s what friends are made of !! Good luck and hammer down!! We are going to have to call him Stroker Ace !!
Good job Jessie. Just need more laps and be smooth buddy. Excited for ya!
Jesse, great job....! Guys good luck this week, my wife and enjoy the channel.... Stay safe and God Bless y’all from Ohio...
His equipment maybe second hand but his driving is first rate.🏁💪
I cannot tell you what a wonderful sight that was. Actually seeing a real race car on a real race track.
I’ve been there,a lot of pressure when everyone is just watching you,good job I miss it.
Imma try to run a sportsman this season that's one thing I'm worried about and have always worried about when trying to get comfy for a new season getting used to everyone watching you in the stands and worrying about looking stupid but he had no fear of that it seemed
Jesse,in a high powered,late model stock car,there is an art to setting the car in the corner,turning right to go left and being able to hang on to it so you don't swap ends.Been their,done that.
Solid run for sure! I think it’ll help jesse being around other cars and seeing how they enter the corner. But for his first time in the car he looked good!
Fun to come back and to see where is journey really started
Good job for the first time in the car it will come to you the more you do it hunt the front family thank you for giving Jesse the opportunity that is Yi love my racing family here in Ohio
Good to see you out there Jesse. Get this man some more wheel time and hes gonna be one to look out for. Keep up the work guys. I really look forward to your videos. Drive it like you stole it JESSE!!!!!
Lot of pressure for a driver to get in a car that will and has won races and do so dang well. Glad to be a witness. Awesome job Jesse.
His comparison of real life to iRacing was spot on imo. Some folks say it is nothing alike but they are just looking ONLY at the feel factor. Sure you can't feel the car jarring you around sitting in an office chair and the car has a lot more "force feedback" in real life (though that is adjustable), but the input side of things is where iRacing shines. From my experience behind a real car and in iRacing, a lot of the skills do transfer over. Now of course if you go spend $40k on a sim racing rig, I'd say it probably would mirror that jarring and stiffness and most everything else. Best way I put it to people on iRacing with a typical desk set up is that you just can't feel the rear end. For being in a virtual world with virtual physics and feedback, it is as close as it gets. Many local drivers to me here use it to get extra practice laps. If they were nothing alike, it would be a waste of money.
Looked to me like Jesse was having way too much fun. You got him hooked. LOL
Jesse looks good behind the wheel.
Jesse listen to "ole driver" and get you a pair of gloves
Darren Charles needs gloves 🧤
Man there’s nothing like getting behind the wheel!!!
Y’alls debriefing talking about where to let off, how long..... man those times are fun. You can hear how excited all of you are.
Congratulations Jesse!!!!!!!! Way 2 go. Can't wait to see you out there with a full field of cars.
Jesse I think you done an awesome job for your first time out . You will be fast before you know it . You have two of the best teachers anyone could have . So listen to them and do what they say and you'll be up front beside them before you know it . Good job my friend
Wow Jess, get a new gas pedal assembly ordered for that car now. You wore it more in 1 lap than most do in 20. But not to shabby Jess.
Now back to two barrels ☹️🏁
And I do love you doing the iracing 👍
Did great he’s got a bunch of great people helping him out should be fun to watch him grow
I think the boy did a pretty good job 👍... Thanks for allowing him to give it a try... We both know that the view is a lot different from behind the wheel... LOL. Seat time is what's going to build his confidence.... Thanks for the video....
Great job Jesse! So happy to see cars back on the track!
You did great dude sending luck your way all the way from fort bragg me and my boys are cheering you and Johnathan on!!!!!!!!!
Good job Jesse! Awesome video guys! Looking forward to seeing you all race!!
Love how everyone gets likes but I get none for my positive comment. I’m done giving likes or making comments!
May just be me but the iracing has him more comfortable than I expected...he doesn’t seem scared to send it...good luck next week and stay safe 👍
this seems to be the trend with people iracing and then go racing for real. A lot of the pros say it helps them tremendously...only thing iracing is missing is the in car feel
That race after you put it in the wall for REAL.
Great job Jessie!! Good luck from a new subscriber!
So so glad for Jessie glad to see you get to go racing may the Lord bless all you boys and protect you👍👊✌
Nice LAPS. Low on the corners.. FOCUS ON YOUR MARKS.... NICE DRIVING...PROUD OF YOUR EFFORT.IT WILL COME.
Awesome job Jesse!! You've got some skill. Looks like you might be driving it in a little deep when you're on the bottom causing you to pinch it off some. You'll be fine though, got into a nice groove and ran some fairly consistent laps. And that's what it's about. Excited for ya. Good video as always. God bless y'all, and stay safe.
I know after working on a dirt modified crew for a couple years i finally was given the opportunity to do hot laps & the mechanics race in the car, i was so nervous at 1st, few laps in settled down & was so blown away by the power, absolutely loved it, did everything i could to buy a car after that.
Great job Jesse. Sounds like you weren't too far off from the normal times. Wish you all the best next week.
Your getting the feel of the car, the third set of hot laps looked a lot better. It will feel a lot better when you complete the set up.
Smooth is fast...
Good luck 👍
Great job Jesse .you looked really good on the bottom nice consistent laps.. you'll do great.
Good stuff he did awesome can't wait till u raceing again keep it up
Good job jessie, keep that head up and be coachable ! Love you boys
Jesse did great! Keep it smooth don't try to get everything at once , be patient, he will be just fine.
Awesome stuff. Great to see Jesse in the car.
Great job on the Run. looking forward to more.
Looked good for his first laps in the car! Good luck on the race.
Glad to see him make laps. Be safe and show them you can win. God bless
Started watching you guys a few moths ago just for something different to watch and boom now I’m going to buy my first car this weekend
Good job Jesse glad to see y’all at the track making laps
wow for a first time at speed well done. He will be a good racer, super critical of his first day. LOTS of small things that when they come together he will be a Front Runner!
Good job Jesse! I think we all miss hearing those engines on the dirt! HTF
4:42 that’s a different way to get in a car
Looking like Harry Gant out there with no gloves! Looked good though! Didn’t take long to get comfortable
I think you done good Jessie the car look good and I think you're do good next Saturday good luck
Hmmmm I think our pa tracks are going to have to start thinking about monetizing what’s left of 2020 racing seeing you guys hitting the track now!!
Way to go Jesse's looking good! Good Luck!
Dont get outran by that old mastersbuilt at the ppv race Jonathan. Jesse looked dam good for his time in the car.
Hammond motorsports set up plates will have that thing running strong !
292 comments on Jesse taking a few test and tune laps. You think we are ready to go racing next weekend? Jesse did a great job. His goal next week should be make the feature bring the car home in 1 piece and not get lapped. His gets that done its been a great debut. My money's on him getting all 3 done. Jesse you got this!!!! God bless you all!
Jesse you done good brother!! As you probably already know the fastest way around the track is on the cushion. keep working on it you done real good I'm proud of you. More races are won coming out the turn, that it is going down the chute . And always remember right foot down turn left lol I'll pray for all hunt the front 🙏 God bless
This is great bunch of big kids playing in a sandbox can feel all the excitement
Great, really enjoy idea of Jesse getting a car! Would have thought he would of tried a low, med, and high lines plus mixing and matching lines. Great Videos always enjoyable!
Jessie you did A good job for being your frist time in A late model it's a learning process good luck Jessie 🏆🏁🏆🏁
I thought Jessie did a great job more seat time and he will relax and stick that left front Tyre in the sweet spot. All the best of luck, stay safe. 🚘🚘👍👍
Looked alot alot better that lasy set of laps congratulations Jesse. Practice practice practice. You looked good and no tore up car. Biggest Florida Fan David Kilroy.
I think we have a high side racer on our hands! some of the best come from the high side, he did good. Hope yall have a good run next week!
Get it bubba get it sure was nice to hear that car getting loud and happy god bless stay safe
3/4 lap then mash the loud pedal looked tight but WEARING out the butterflies in the carb will do that too .
Jesse drives like Ayrton Senna pumping that accelerator exiting the turn. He's looking for "traction control". It's the button on the left of nowhere Jesse.
Helluva job that was outstanding Jessie
Proud of you jesse and Jonathan good job helping him
Good job buddy!!! Ain’t but one way to find out what it’ll do, get in it and get it son!!!
He loves that top side
Damn good job Jessy. Hell you looked a lot better your first time out then I did when I first got my first late model. My first practice I was backwards more than forward. LOL
Jesse didn't look bad. I think we got something to work with here!! Lol
He looked good, Go gett em Jesse. HTF is got your back They are a awesome bunch of awesome dudes!!!
Your fish in your picture looks good
Should have put one of the Joiners in it first to feel out the set-up. She looked tight. Great job Jessie! - I would not have wanted cameras rolling the first time I drove a modified - and thank god there wasn't. Good luck boy's - keep it up.
He looks good. Remind him that the rack is a lot quicker than them ol pure stock steering boxes. He’s wearing his self out on that wheel. We all did the same thing when we moved up to late models.
Good job.....looking good at there keep it up...
Great driving 👍 listen to the information given and a turn it in to your own 👍👍👍
when a first time driver brings the car back unwrecked its a good day and he never spun out once i would say he did good
Man your so good!! Keep it up!
Looked good Jesse, just need to set the car coming into 1+3 then hammer down, you guys have fun Saturday and get that trophy🏁🏁
Looks like he’s got a handle on it. Just takes seat time, take it one lap at a time.
Jesse got better as the day went on keep it up 😎👍
Good job Jesse! Good luck next weekend.
Looking good Jessie. You'll be Hunting the Front before you know it.
Just needs seat time. I'm going to say it. Jesse's a wheel man ,for sure
Jesse that last run not bad you got done that run Good job
