This is one of the most entertaining spectator drags I've seen in a long time. This was awesome. 😆
There are much worse.
Why is everyone hating on the commentator? I think he adds to the comedy 😂
People being too serious!! The "...and who doesn't care?" line is a bit much thou!!
@@killjoydod4937 I think it's just a throwback to John the old announcer. Unfortunately John passed away last year due to covid and he use to do that joke "and who doesn't care" and the crowd would go crazy
Verbal diarrhea 💩
That was a really good field this time, some good racing there.
Agreed! Great racing
That was a great race event. Some really close finishes and some fun crashes. Good clean fun!
4 wheel, 2 wheel, whatever, it's still all good because you never know the skill level and fear level behind each dash. That's the intangibles that makes this fun.
With handling like that. That had to be the RS Focus . Great Race
It was an RS
It was a focus st
@@dustingrassman3184 it was a Focus RS. An ST would have launched much slower off the line because it’s only FWD.
@@dustingrassman3184 The fog lights and spoiler show it's a RS.
Don’t remember the last time I saw a corvette drift without losing control immediately. Nice
Right, doesn't seem like a 'Vette unless it occasionally tries to kill you.
They make for a great drift car even stock, it's just the drivers behind that wheel that can't control it.
Maybe it depends on the corvette. I have a C5 Z06 and the rear end tucks in really good under power without drifting unless it’s wet out, and then all bets are off if the traction control isnt on! 😂 lol
Love these races!!! Great announcer!!!! :D
The wheel came off easily on that Buick 🤣
This was really really fun!
this is a super awesome event the only event keeps getting better
That was fun , good stuff
Quite enjoyed this thanks for the upload, yet that jeep is a TracHawk 😈 Demon HiMi
Slow mo replay the Buick totally beat the Pizza car.
Yeah but it didn't matter... they ran it again for one but also either would have gotten destroyed by the Corvette
the final is wy we just go damn..awesomethis announcer kicks ass and i'm so happy he's into it
The guy in the Focus RS forgot to use launch control.
I love this
Dayum focus is fast
Best video ever
Been at least a decade since I've been to Rockford, but those lights are fantastic
2 decades for myself
They close after this year
Days like this you really need your Perelli's ha ha ha ha ha ha
My man driving the focus deserved to win he drove his ass off and that very last lap last turn is the move I pull for all the time when someone is in just that position high on the track and behind 1st. Get your shit together and make one hell of a run from up top to inside as much as possible and straight as possible and hammer down.. as much as possible lol. Great move there at the end….perfect
Some drive a little less aggressively when their car has to take them to work on Monday.😊
I was driving the white Camaro. It started sprinkling during this so the track got interesting Good times
I smell oil
Best video I have seen in a long long time.
this is awesome! i'm lining up hotwheels trying to match the screen haha
How fun! Where is this!?! Wish I had something like this close to home. would be there every weekend lol
OMGGG!!! Me too!!! Just remember: "Never race in something you can't replace!"
This is at the Rockford Speedway, Rockford, Illinois
I would love to be the announcer guy. I'd be gushing over every car I'd introduce on the track.
it's like the announcer annually thought it was called spectacular drags
The comitator was the best ever and very entertaining!!!!!!
2 laps please
That Commentator is funny, I don’t care who you are, That’s funny right there, lol
y eso que el del focus andaba con sueño... siempre se atrasaba en la salida. ford Focus RS traccion integral bueno para el rally.
Man we need one of these out here in California it would help a lot cuz it would stop the killing of all these so-called wannabe Racers on the streets I wish I was out there where is this place at and what state
Machesney Park IL
No shot someone brought an Aston Martin to these.. imagine someone rams it lmao.. Insurance wouldn't even cover it..
Are the any rules for spectator drags. Can we run dot track tires?
everyone is lucky it rained that c4 had a driiver behind the wheel
I have a 14 Ford Fiesta ST, with sticky tires there magic in a turn, it will out handy the Focus ST in tight turns. The Fiesta Flash
There is a race at this track where a Fiesta hits the wall on turn 4. All bags deploy
Wow, the Golf driver actually took a good, fast line one corner 3. You NEVER see that in these races, lol.
Story on the minivans?
Jeep gave it up
SRT first race 'thats not what you expected to happen was it' - yes, yes it was.
I have a 96 LT4 Corvette... let me tell you guys something... the dude who drove that Red C4 without the top bolted in has balls of solid stone. These cars drive like shit without the Targa top bolted in tight lol
Guy in the c4 should have turned off his headlights for better aerodynamics
Focus needs a driver mod
That buick won against the hyundai the first time
How on God's Green Earth did the announcer not know that; that was a 67 Nova..... hahahahaha
That generation started with the 1968 model year
Oof
They register dog
Fwd on this tiny trac be your best friend
Was that at C4 Corvette?
Yeah looks like a 90's LT1 vette
damn that announcer r is making it for me, i cant see the screen ad he is sos on!
hhi did audio upgrades in a hundae azura it was..disapointing
The guy with the focus would've won a long time ago I feel he sleeps at the line alot...
Big bad pizza car.. lol
thats an 06 srt8 jeep folks! 6.1 hemi in that.. notice it was beating the rs focus from a stop? they are in the 4 second range as well to 60mph.. anyways considering the power to weight im very impressed with the jeep!
I feel sorry for the people that listen to this guy every week.
Who wants a the left to win
Who wants the right to win
Who wants to see a wreck
Who wants a new announcer!!!!!!!!!
@@jayadams27 Not me.
Eventually you get Stockholm syndrome and start to like him.
The announcer has a very important job… “Watch your starter”!!!
Who else would they get to say that??? 💯💩👎🏼🖕🏽
Thumbnail vehicle after 18:24
Buick regal won first race i did a freeze frame
The dude in the Jeep was seriously pussyfooting it. Focus was solid as well, but the Jeep really had the upper hand but was braking way early in the corners.
It was raining and slippery. The Jeep's tires might have been worn also.
@@killjoydod4937 Bald tires are the only solid reasoning imo. I have the same vehicle and it can handle more than that. I understand not wanting to break that beautiful machine, but he took it to a spec drag and the SRT was made to be tracked. Race it like it was meant to be dammit.
4 cylinder wins. V8 lol.
@@edrod3580 Ohhhh kay?
No victory lap holding the flag?
If that C4 and C5 were stock, the C5 should have won that, even from the outside lane, unless the C4 was a ZR1 or the C5 driver is a doofus, lol
What’s the difference from RS and ST?
350 HP for the RS with all wheel drive, the ST 256 HP front wheel drive. I have a 14 Fiesta ST, there Magic cars, drive one and you’ll see. The Fiesta Flash
The RS is all wheel drive and has about 100 horsepower more
That Park Avenue crash was a total waste of an operational 20 car...
Watching without audio is much better!
12:30 .... That was some really foul play.
So was 15:30
So much nonsense going on lol
"Step Brothers" joke
Go Focus Go! You da (fat) Man!!!
The way the races start is awful, most drivers jump when he screams "Watch the starter" but no one waits for the flag to drop.
OK guys so what's the official name of this kind of drag race…?
😂spectator drags or spec drags 4 short.
Shoeless Joe has a copyright so be careful.
That was BS the Buick beat the pizza car the first time
Clever idea for a slow Saturday night in a small town. They need a new announcer.
Buick beat the Pizza Car. #ROBBED The Jeep Track Hawk has 700hp. That Focus is probably tuned to 350hp but weighs almost 2/3's less and probably has upgraded suspension. That lets me know how impressive the Jeep really is.
Too old to be a TrackHawk. 2006 is most likely an SRT.
Jeep just an SRT which came with 6.1 Hemi. Surprised it kept up with Focus RS. Trackhawk didn’t come out till newer body style.
Buick won the first race vs pizza car
Thanks great content. Had on mute as announcers annoying. Missed hearing exhaust. Can you film away from speaker?
The focus blown its motor on the way home... as expected!
The dudes voice is ear piercing.
Caution: Mute the video as soon as you click on it.
World's luckiest Focus.
Focus cheated
Boo
That announcer is super annoying
Are you crazy, this is terrible racing.. OMG
So funny to see those typical american boaty cars that cant turn for shit struggling for grip with typical american setup with horrible tires, racing around a track. And that Focus driver is actually the worst of them all hahhaa, braking IN the corner when is isnt even close to the limit. Only thing that made him win is the fact that the car is european
Why did the aston martin get destroyed by a 1999 camaro?
@@kingssuck06 That Aston Martin is like a bentley, and that 1999 is a "pure bred" sports car, if you can even call american cars for sporty, and its not close to stock hahah. That Ford Focus has 50hp less than the Aston Martin. Yet it destroys the camaro, but camaro keeps up on the straight. Camaro = Tuned crazy, or its a 5.7 330hp which is tuned to about 400. And at that point, its ALOT lighter than the Aston Martin. Aston Martin is not a sportscar, its a Cruiser/GT. Camaro is supposed to be a sporty muscle.
That focus is definitely European, mostly German.
Buick beat the pizza car
