Winger is definitely the hardest driver out there… proving that the Rocket XR1 is a great race car..great crew work, they know what they’re doing ,no guess work there..as a fan of super late model racing I’m so glad we can count on Winger to be in the winner’s circle..
The HTF series was a success and applause to them for introducing a successful series. 👏 The HTF race program however needs some help. I’m sure we can all agree the HTF crew is a lovable group and we all want to see them succeed. If they don’t mind running mid pack and just want to show up to promote their HTF series, that’s awesome but they should inform their fans that’s the goal so the fans know what to expect. However if they desire to win, which by the way they talk in nearly every video seems to be the goal, then they have many decisions and planning to do in the off season. The team needs major help with chassis setup, aero and tires. Possibly a full time crew chief is all they need to bring the next level of success. Joseph is also a really great dude and good driver especially when it comes to qualifying. He’s patient, reserved and considerate but perhaps too much and lacks the reckless abandon or disregard for personal safety to be a top level dirt late model racer. Also it’s entirely possible I have no idea what I’m talking about and therefore my opinion means nothing. ❤️
You gotta know how to use that equipment to have success...btw Watch the way they grind tires, you can't go fast with tires shaped like octagons...lol Every block on the tire has a drive edge that needs to be sharp and it's different between the left and right side, while the blocks wear out the drive edge still stays sharp. The grinder rotates clockwise so it takes a particular pattern to achieve a sharp edge on the drive blocks of the tire. That's how you stay fast from beginning to end...btw
Until they swallow their pride, and realize what’s in their brain that they have won with, isn’t cutting it on a larger stage. I have commented for ever, Center and Corner Exit. Same darn issues we had in a Sprint Car. Until we Swallowed our Pride, we couldn’t win on a drier or slick track. The answer is, Sending Jorden to Super School, (helping with pride) and Make some changes. Love these guys, they have everything to win, including Driver Talent. It’s their Pride.
I think HTF is lost for answers. Their RUclips channel has far outpaced their racing success. Don't know why Joseph wants to constantly run low. Getting passed by the best should cause you to make an adjustment at some point. They need to consult with someone outside their circle.
I agree that HTF needs someone from the outside with a fresh set of eyes to bring in another perspective. After getting the LH last fall, the result was an obvious improvement capped with back to back podiums at the XR race at All Tech. And that result came with a small motor in the Draime. 2023' started out with some promise but after crash at The Dream, HTF just seems lost or at the least, just stagnant. If they aren't willing to try something outside their bubble, they risk going backwards and losing what they gained going with the Longhorn.
they need a crew chief paid to keep them consistent, they have good equipment and good talent but lack a consistent set up, and game plan. you cant run with the big dogs constantly flying by the seat of your pants.
It seems they had better luck with the capital chassis. They won more races with it and all setups aren't the same with every chassis you have to do different things with every chassis brand and you have to drive them different
Too many family members taking a wage to pay a crew chief that could actually make them money and a sponsor that is just throwing his money away sponsoring extremely expensive engines to go backwards every race...been watching and following since the start of the youtube but seriously thinking that ego is more important than winning at this point and by the comments on most platforms im not the only one.....
The sponsor has bought 2 engines now and maybe paid the rebuild costs on the other ones too...i am a fan and they bring alot to the sport as in other drivers and teams making vlogs ect now but damn frustrating when you know they can do better with the right personnel on the team. jordons great but he is not a crew chief and won't be until he has worked under one for a few years@@modified15r
I was at whynot this weekend and two things should have happened after Saturdays race first is Winger should give Joiner half his check for helping him win and second is Joiner needs to buy the flagman a case of Bengay cause he needs it after waving the blue flag at Joiner for 15-20 laps. Why do they have a blue flag nobody pays it any attention with no penalty for ignoring it.
Youre not smart for this comment... asa lap car, when given the blue flag, You hold your line, It is up to the lead car to find a way around.. . ERB JR was just to slow. The whole top half of the track was open for the lead car? So now what is the excuse!? There isnt one, Your driver was so slow he couldnt get off the bottom and Turbo and winger ran the top and got 1 &2 with 10 laps left in the race.. Dumb comment. . A+ for that
All the joiners need an EGO check! They might as well take their brains out and play with it at this point.The entire HTF team needs to look in the mirror and have some self-awareness and stop letting their egos get in the way. They 100-percent have all the equipment they need to win but what they don't have is a crew chief they don't grind tires right and calling your chassis manufacturer asking questions isn't going to get you to the front man up and just admit that y'all suck at setting up a chassis and grinding tires and hire a crew chief!
I watch all your videos and I think when it comes race day you need a crew chief . It’s nice to have a family race team, but to finish consistently in the top five you need help. Please do this before the sponsors drop you. From the comments you have many people think the same thing help help help is needed quickly. I love all the things you do,except the racing.I don’t think your driver has the ability to run with the big boys.good luck . I wish the best.
And yet all these people who comment can’t name a single crew chief that makes setup decisions for their drivers. Josh Putnam won the HTF series with family help but since that doesn’t work...
@@dustinkendall1748I would consider his dad being a family member to his race team as the original poster said isn’t practical. And what’s amazing is Ashton had to get out on the road , pay his dues, do stupid things and finally after a couple years.... success.
The HTF crew is too close to the situation. They need an outside boss to run the setup and team. It's a family gig, so that makes it tough, but if you wanna run with the big dogs, you gotta look at this as a business, not a family venture. Sponsors will soon agree.
They took a capital and the trusty Draime to the world 100 the first time and made the feature and have not made it since with supposedly superior equipment
I don't know what changed in joes Life but he has no interest in Racing anymore,You don't go from winning consistently with basic equipment to losing consistently with great equipment,Put Jesse in the seat he has a visible passion for driving, And start setting that car up for the level y'all are at, Still setting up like your running crates at bubba's Track dam your in the big leagues start acting like it
That was a darn good race. Lots of action, and competition.
Congratulations 12!! 🏁🏆🏁
Joseph and turn 2 on the first lap has been hard to watch all season
ya aint wrong
Then held up dennis!!!!
" get the vin off that car because he is driving like he stole it!" Announcer did a great job.
It was so awesome being there last nights
Bad Ass Cody Overton kicked some tail in the hunt the front late model series this year! He's gonna be a helluva contender next year! #15 🏁🏆🏁
Awesome racing awesome track. Congrats to winger 🏁🏆.
Thanks for the share!!! Awesome content with some good racing! Let's Goooooo!!! Be Safe
Nice job everyone! Great race.
Winger and Erb, jr. Both rockets. Glad to see winger some this year always against better teams thats how you can get better.
“Can’t Get Right” Ashton Winger!
Does JJ forget how to drive after the heat race I don’t get it?
JoJo does the best that JoJo can do put him up against the top wheels, they drive around him.
Slicker track, they just don’t have an answer for.
Becoming a hot lap hero can’t do anything when others are out there
Winger is definitely the hardest driver out there… proving that the Rocket XR1 is a great race car..great crew work, they know what they’re doing ,no guess work there..as a fan of super late model racing I’m so glad we can count on Winger to be in the winner’s circle..

Probably
Good job getting in the way Joseph
10 needed to get his ass out of the f way
Winger shoulda/coulda been there the night before too. He got "Turboed".
Next world 100 winner
Ashton Winger ?
HTF has the best equipment money can by. But finished a lap down. Something is missing.......
You gotta know how to use that equipment to have success...btw

@@woofersd2383 i agree 100%
I have said their pride and ego is in the way for 2 years now
Joiner had a broken front shock ..went in to replace it..started in the back on the restart...did ok to finish 8th.
Hire a crew chief Joiner!!!
From where this is dirt track racing racing not NASCAR Indy or formula 1
@ToddRobinson13and most of those national team crew chief never make setup decisions

Most teams have a crew chief they need someone.
I think they need a crew chief to help set up the car.
I was thinking he doesn't know a different line than the bottom.

Y’all gone realize one day it’s a tire grinding issue rather than a motor issue htf
Wenger is hell-bent on it
For all you haters let's see y'all get out there and win every race that way you are running a car instead of your mouth just saying
There’s one in every crowd..
Maybe someday hot laps and heat races will start paying 😂
What the Heck Happened? JJ, you have everything. What the Heck Happened?
If I was erb I would have spun joiner out wouldn't have thought twice about it
And that why your sitting on a couch watching….
🥺HTF Joiner🤔❓️❓️❓️🥺🫣🙄😔10
Only thing htf accomplished in this race was costing Denis erb the win
Whinestein Winger the Golden Child wins again.
It seems they had better luck with the capital chassis. They won more races with it and all setups aren't the same with every chassis you have to do different things with every chassis brand and you have to drive them different
Running against a whole different class of drivers now and no big crate races in a Longhorn....
Need to get back in that dump truck.
Another rocket/ford with a dominant win. Longhorn fanboys crying
Hunt the Front definitely needs some cougar time in the old mans Chevelle or let Jesse aka the Magic Man now you see me now you don't drive.
From 1st to 7th in 4 laps then from 7th to 17th, lol, thats htf, naah thats htr.
He finished 8th . Not 17th.
