In the last 5 years I have lived two different lives it seems. Quite wild to sit back and think about. I hope this video answers some questions...and if it makes more questions leave a comment.
I apologize if I ever came across as rude or angry when answering questions about why the content changed or what happened to the builds. Many people were jerks about it and go straight to insults because they don't like NASCAR to something. It made me mad obviously... Tone is hard to interpret over written words and I may have assumed some comments/messages were hostile when they were not intended to be. I wish some people could express disappointment without reverting to hostility. Obviously I would like to do it all at once...but time is the enemy of everyone. I have to be strategic in where to invest my effort to move life in the direction I ultimately want to be in. Those of you who have stuck around for it I appreciate you greatly.
I am looking forward to racing again both circle track and at the drag strip with Uncle Rob's new built motor and bigger turbo. Speak up in the comments! I want to know who you are and how long you have been following us!
I could have made this comment with the main account but you’re all smart people and can make the connection that it’s actually me 😂
I like all of your videos! You mix things up and I think it's great! Been watching for years and will always watch.
@@Cobra-Scott Thanks man I appreciate you
@@Stapleton42 no IM DIRTY DAN
I have enjoyed all of what I have seen in your videos, since I began watching around 2020!
You still have some of the OG viewers.
I'd watch you guys burn wood lol. Support is support. I don't care what you're doing, I'm along for the ride.
Well said. Thank you Allen 😂
@@stapleton42extra Do you plan to do any future livestreams again by chance? I was a devoted donator to the fart fund. That's how you know I've been around 😂😂😂
@@RacingBedgood I want sure if it was just me or the lives trailed off. I was there every weekend each time that I could.
@@RyanDoesAlllife does trail off sometimes. I used to watch every new video the day it came out. Lately, I haven't had time for that. I've spread myself too thin, and life seemed to have got me in a rut I couldn't get out of, and I continued with digging that rut by adding more to it. Not just with the projects, but with life in general. At one point I had 4 project trucks, a project car that has been on a long term back burner, and a driver that needs an engine. If I couldn't make big progress, I wasn't happy, and my poor 30x60 shop was packed to the gills. 2 of the project trucks are gone, one of them was pulling double duty as a project and a shop truck. So I purchased a beater truck to fill the shop truck duties, and I'm going to fight myself to do the bare minimum to keep it functional and safe. Since clearing things unneeded out, the feeling of accomplishment on small tasks is coming back. That tells me I'm headed in the right direction.
Your comment about wanting to live in the world you grew up in and how different it is today, are the truest words anyone has ever spoke. You hit the nail on the head with that one.
The builds are why i subscribed way back when you had 13k subs, and im still here and liking the Nascar History stuff...... but DAMN MAN do i EVER miss these builds, the fun you had doing it, and the jokes and banter you used to have.....i feel like it was just about to take off like a rocketship as a builds channel too with the amazing builds you have and friends you made form being genuinely fun to watch and be around!! i wish you had spun off the channel and done it on the side more. Also The Escalade could still be the first in the 8s if you get after it too lol and its such a damn monster, and way better than when i saw you run the mid 9 in tulsa!! Might be time to hire a mechanic or another person to advance these things on the side?
I have thought about hiring someone and maybe I’m a bonehead for this but I don’t want someone else to build my stuff for me. It’s not the same feeling to accomplish the job when I don’t know the vehicle inside and out.
I could outsource help with specific tasks and repair work. but I could never hand off the build itself it just wouldn’t feel right. The satisfaction wouldn’t be there.
That’s when I realized my potential would be capped by pursuing that “build channel” format with the channel. I can’t build stuff just for the sake of doing it because people will like it. I have to have a legitimate attachment to have internal satisfaction for the process and did not want to ruin that…
I realized I am passion driven at my core…and I become unhappy when I allow other influences to steer the ship.
@@Stapleton42 while i get the idea behind that, passions can and DO change when progress is made in life, especially if you just take the initiative to try it...thats what cleetus, Westen, Demoranch, Cboys, PFI, Boostedboiz, and many others have realized was just a silly hangup...i think the stuff getting done at all and being able to use these cars AT ALL (with you helping occasionally)would do so much more for you and the channel than it just sitting there collecting dust for YEARS. Im here for it all, but damn those are cool builds
The passion you would feel from the tons of fun and content it owuld provide, would FAR outweigh the "i struggled to finish this thing that just needs charge pipe and a power steering pump after 3+ years due to not wanting anyone else to lay a finger on it"........trust me! I used to be the same way and have seen SOO many other guys change from that as well, with their passion growing, and their channels FLOURISHING the past few years
My passion did change you’re right. I realized I could go race in nascar one day and that’s more exciting to me than doing what I used to do.
The Escalade needs more work than that to be right. It needs to have the Holley system installed and everything rewired. Even if I wanted to keep the ms3pro in there put the transmission back in and drive it tomorrow, I have no desire to use it. If it ran right now it’d still be parked there.
My point is I cannot manufacture the desire and genuine enthusiasm for something and I do not want to try. That’s acting and I don’t want to be an actor.
I love everything you both do. I do have to say that I sure miss the Yellowbelly videos! 😁
@@stapleton42extrasounds like the decision is made time to have a sale or auction on the stuff you lost interest in to put into what does have your interest! Having passion in what you do produces a better product with less energy.
Im one of those dudes that watches everything you post , keep pushing brother . The toxicity of the internet doesn’t change who we really are , it can piss us off but not change us.

Hey Stapleton42,
I just wanted to drop by and say how much I miss the old videos filled with randomness. Watching you and Logan work on the Escalade, Uncle Rob, the bus, and just letting whatever happened in the video happen brought so much fun and entertainment to my days. I’m the guy who used to post a daily SpongeBob quote in every video, just because!
I really enjoy your NASCAR history videos, but I’d love to see some of that original shop stuff and spontaneous content again. Those moments were truly special.
Thanks for all the great content and for making my days brighter.
Best,
SpongeBob Guy
Mitchell,. You and Logan's heads are in the right place. I will watch anything you post because I know it will be genuine, car builds, Nascar history, tech features. Its all good.👍👍👍
Thank you George
Glad you did this update on your cars. The LSXcalade was what brought me here, but I love what you're doing in documenting racing history as it's a very needed element for motorsports. There's thousands of build channels - you fill a very missing spot by doing what you do. Feature your own builds and go racing when you're ready to do it.
Been here before Logan, before you introduced the Monte, before uncle Rob, when you were living in the Newell as a vagabond living from shop to shop lol. Still here and enjoying both the lives you've lived.
The builds had me hooked. I had you one day and Cleetus the next. Life was great! Bring the builds back!!!
I'm not even a big Nascar fan, but the videos you are doing are needed and will just continue to educate people on the history
Man I sure do miss watching the Escalade hooking it up brother
Drag racing, builds, Newell vids, Nascar history.... Everything you've shared has been great imo and sucked me into your world. The OGs aren't just invested in the content, but also invested in you and Logan. Keep pushing forward and we'll sit back anxiously to see what's next!
thanks man!!
I understand where your coming from man.
I wanna go fast.
I dont care what its in.
Shove me in a chevette, don't care. I tried to make friends with a local dirt track guys, just to be closer to racing. Never did. Had a kid, years later he is about 12, and our goal this summer is a racing mower. If i can't, im going to let him do it. He is just as obsessed with anything with an engine as me. And probably smarter too.
true supporters will watch no matter what you do you and it will be all good
Your Integrity really shines through. It's a rare thing these days. I've seen many episodes where you thank the people for watching until the end. I'm one of them. I appreciate what you do and hope you can accomplish everything that you want. 👍🏻
Wow, thank you!
Hello Mitchell, many of US are still here. Definitely the lack of builds or finishing one completed has me sometimes on the Sideline. I admire and appreciate the History on Racing your doing. The Ed Pink & Holman Moody were the Best Documentary & History videos I have ever seen, Network TV Quality (hopefully one day they will)! I watched those a couple of times each and recommended them to anyone I thought would appreciate them. The NASCAR stuff even though I remember some of these teams just isn’t in my wheelhouse and interest, again I’m Only one person. Ready to see your Race Car and Logan’s Mustang build.
Thanks man
ill be honest, I build vicariously through you, your girl & the pups, the nascar history is not really my thing, bring back them builds!
You can build an old NASCAR Busch series car vicariously through me in the next month or so here lol
I came for the bus and I stay for the deep thoughts. I’d love to se a set of series on these builds and maybe a few more. But ya more bus stuff please.
you had me with the blue escalade tailing Cleet and I've stuck around ever since Bub. Keep up the awsome work and have fun with it. Loving your videos with the history
LSX Escalade is what brought me here. Nascar history is awesome as well!
Excited to see uncle Rob again. Miss seeing your builds and projects and any updates.
im still here buddy. you and logan can aways count on me to support how ever I can!
I stayed watching regardless of what’s going down on the channel.
Hey Mitchell, you and i are the same age. I feel like we've both experienced the same thoughts on ourselves, careers, and outlook on life. I moved to Mooresville straight out of HS to purse a career in NASCAR. From 2016-2021 i worked for 4 different teams, won races in all series from Cup to ARCA, Cup Championship in 2018, all looked good on paper.. But it wasnt the same sport you and i grew up loving. It took a lot for me to switch gears to a better way of life. So whatever decision you make next, know that its okay and to trust the process. I and many others will be here for the ride! ✌️
Bring back the builds and the drag races at the track those were my favorite videos
Your journey has been absolutely fascinating to watch. Have fun and keep it off the wall.
Never left! I'm still here 🇸🇪😃👌
Your channel got me through 8 weeks of a broken foot and 5 months of rehab for a shattered hand much love from a 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 fan
thanks man!! glad your extremities are all better lol
Can’t pick who’s your “Ride or Die” people, but my friend…you living the dream. It’s not an easy dream, but you’re doing it. Thank for the update and the content.
I started watching because of the builds, dragracing, and drag and drive events.
Then, one day, you did a video where you and a friend visited Dale Earnhardt's mother.
It got me hooked on your channel.
It doesn't matter what you put out, I will watch.
The problem for me is, I'm on the other side of the world.
I always seem to be catching up.
This is the second video of yours I have watched this evening.
Also, it's hard to catch live streams.
I appreciate all you do and wish nothing but the best for you both.
I haven't been well since spending some of the Easter break in hospital.
Still not right, but feeling better and am catching up on videos that I have missed from all TH-camrs.
God Bless, take care.
Mark, Australia.
You to both are the OG’s!! Love ya both!! 😍🥰😘
Thanks for the update. Life can take some curious turns and you seem to have navigated it well and learned along the way. Good job. This update was needed in my opinion as I have been wondering about the projects. I like you approach now in getting out quality videos on the build process. There is so much thrown together stuff out there. I think you have developed a good direction for you channels. Keep it up
Thanks man
The first thing is thank you for sharing your passion. I know you use you tube to make money for your dreams and that's ok. I just want to say you do a great job on the history of nascar. In my opinion you are a natural at that .Thank you for allowing all of us the joy of watching all the videos you make. Keep up the good work.
Holy have i been following you this long lol. Found you when you stopped at Motion. To show the RV and the SUV lol. Still see each video posted. Even when your walking looking at oil rigs lol. Miss The People's track videos lol. Thanks for sharing brother. God bless.
Watched the rest. Again, I appreciate this a lot. I just lost my Nanna in March after a bad fall. It was horrible to watch, she hung on for nearly a month in the Intensive care unit. It's shattered our whole family, I'm the oldest Grandson of the 25 Grand children then there's 35 Great Grand children. Sorry for your loss. Thanks again for the video. Cheers.
Mitchell... Thank you for the update.... Thank you for preserving NASCAR history and caring about it. I started watching about Uncle George. I have a 1994 Suburban, peeling white paint, etc. so I wanted to glean from your experiences before I started into renovations.
I'm 68 years old so I'm watching your video's from an older perspective. You're a serious guy... don't let it get too intense, Take a short break (or more than one) and do something that gives you pleasure, have some fun along this journey.
I purchased a shirt a while back (Uncle Rob on the back) and received the nicest card from you and Logan. Thanks for all you both do. Thanks for caring about the quality of the videos...
One day at a time brother.
Thanks again !
Thank you Dan! I am serious and it does get tiring at times. I just consider that growing into it. I’m glad you’re here for it all!
Was always wondering what happened to the Rolls after putting so much work into cleaning it. I hope you guys can get that car done 1 day. Im here for all of your car build content and even watch some of the historical stuff. The main issue is you used to come up in my feed every time you uploaded but now i have to find you to see whats going on... Keep up the great work Mitchell & Logan!!
I don't know why it does that! We appreciate you man
Man Ihave been screaming about this the past 5 or 6 years. I thought I was the only one that dont recognze the worl we live in and how far we have gotten away from common morals and values. Thanks man. Well said.
i've actually been theorizing that the blower adding more force into the engine would kind of "push" the air and since sound is a vibrations of air, if its under force it would kind of "squeeze" the sound waves and attribute to the sharper note.
bro love the update, the downs help lay the foundation for the ups, and being honest, i miss seeing mitch and logan the humans covered in grease or talking bullshit down at yello belly, love the update, will be here for you guys.
It’s possible I’ve thought about that too. But then again after the combustion happens it’s just exiting cylinder pressure which in my brain theory could maybe be mimicked by a naturally aspirated higher compression setup? Heck I don’t know. Cam specs change that a bit too. All I know is it’s close 😂
@@stapleton42extra oh dude 100% real damn close! only other factor is cylinder dimensions, bigger speaker lower thud idea, and thats splitting hairs, out in the wild i would not be able to tell it was any different. Cant wait to see the build series when they re ready man. and especially stoked to see you suit up and drive.
I'll be here for all of it. Being a huge Nascar fan in the 90s, I'm loving the direction you've been going lately
Thanks man!
That's real close with the Monte Carlo and the IROC. Love your projects I can't wait until you get your circle track car on the track and I really enjoyed the way you bring back the NASCAR history. ✌️🇺🇸
Thanks man!
You were inspiration for my first build, a 99 k1500 with a 5.3, people were saying “just go with a big block”, “that 5.3 aint gonna fit”, and of course, the typical “man a i can make a small block make more power than an LS”. Dude, Bringing you up in a conversation was kinda like a weapon. I’d eventually say something like “you ever heard of Stapleton?” I mean it was normally no, unless it was a younger guy, i was 18 at the time and usually spoke with old heads about this. I’d then show them the Escalade, when it was black, making a pass and they would go silent. Then id show them the Escalade after it was painted… and then kinda lecture them on who designed the LS platform and why, and they’d just say either it’s too complicated (wires) or it’s too expensive😂
I'm definitely one of the more "admiral" ones 😂 love ya guys !! From the moldy Rolls to the Herm stories.. We are here to stay.. Love the channel you two !! Just don't stop making videos because everything you guys touch is Rad 😂...Shoutout from Kansas City Missouri
Thanks man 💪🏻
I started because of the Rolls, but stayed because I like you and Logan, My preference is the builds, but I have enjoyed all the different video's from when I started watching. Just keep on keeping on, and I think you'll reach your goals.
Thanks man
A guy made a comment that he would watch y'all burn wood, me too. I've never watched one of your videos and not loved it I've been following and watching your journey for a long time.
One thing to put it into perspective, Your videos compel me to want to interact with you either by commenting or buying your merch and telling people about your channel, I know for a fact that some of the people I've told about you do watch your videos, dude that says a lot, that's the kind of people you and Logan are, we want to see you do what you do because we enjoy watching you do whatever it is that you're doing even if you're burning wood and making smores .
Keep it up and we'll keep watching, I don't always watch them as quickly as I use to but I'm retired now living in paradise on a tropical island and sometimes I'm enjoying the beach or some crazy cool resort with my wife and daughter but I will always watch your videos brother.
Thank you,
MarknLily
Thank you Mark maybe we will do a video burning some wood and see how many people watch it 😂
@@stapleton42extra absolutely 💯 do it lol 😝
Thanks for the update on all of the projects that I haven't seen in a while.
The contacts, the fact you documented so many essential historical moments and people. You know the language of successful racers and builders... And judging by the mustang, homegirl been absorbing and observing! Thanks for the update, you build cool stuff, and talk to meaningful people. Right on! Be well and give it hell you two!
Well said! Thanks Chris
Mitchell, I've been a subscriber since close to the beginning. You got me through my second colon surgery in 2021, and you're getting me through my third one i just had 3 weeks ago. I will watch whatever you post because i enjoy it and i learn something every time. Never stop brother... I'll be here for the long haul.
Thanks man 💪🏻 hope the recovery goes well
We watched and follow to see where your story goes. Your content at some point sucked us in and we have to know where it goes. Its like a tv show that your just waiting for the next episode. I came here because of the Escalade on race week and meeting you and you are just like us and makes you realize what an average person like me is capable to do. So your content is relatable.
Thank you Josh
I remember when i first learned about y'all through PFI speeds channel, i thought this guy does cool stuff with cars and i just wanna say to you-for you I'm here till the end boss.
The lsxcalde I'd the reason I subscribed way back like 3 years ago. I used to watch all your videos. I love Nascar history, and I love Nascar. I just wanted to watch you do your projects, and then I ended up having two kids, which took up time away from watching. Especially when I wasn't interested in the history of Nascar as much as I thought. But I'm still here
Thanks Mike
The MC sound is spot on and AMAZING! I really enjoy your videos because of your "Old Soul" passion for everything you do. I see a lot of myself in you. The things you are passionate about are the same things that interest me and have motivated me throughout my life. You are very mature for your age and you have wisdom beyond your years. I am amazed and impressed with the amount of thinking/calculating/researching you do and the tremendous effort you put in to all you do.
Came here for the cars and still watch for the nascar history
So glad you did this update. Great to see the old escalade love that thing!!!! Just heard Kenny Wallace talk about you!!!
heck yeah
I can't believe it has been that long since that kid was tearing apart his living quarters to fix the result of a water leak, it was like you were a one legged man in an ass kicking contest, keep it up kid
😂 I still feel like that
It has been enjoyable and even educational watching you and your channel grow.
We the OGs understand it's stressful running a business and a life. Patiently waiting for the builds to come back when it's best for the channel. The Loganstang is at the top of my list but i hope someday to see y'all cruisin the boat that didn't float. In the meantime keep the Awesome Nascar history videos coming.
whenever you want to see something thats huge you have to take a few steps back to see everything.
thats what you're doing now , i say that after watching this video .
from what i heard in this video you're goin to be huge .
ive been here from the beginning and still hear .
Do what you love .... Not what you think everyone else will love .
its 5-12-24 when i send this comment and your 10.9k suscribed.
you do what u said was goin toin this video you'll be over mil in the year.
keep it up Mitch
Thanks Danny. We have 300k on the main channel 😂 still a long way to go
Still wearing my LSXcalade shirt 😆, keep doing what your doing man.
Thanks man 💪🏻
Turn up too many people on TH-cam that will tell us what is in their heart as you have. Thank you. It's good to know where you're coming from and where you want to go
Thank you. I’m here because I believe in you for the long term.
Thank you Brian 💪🏻
I was one of the OG's I still have the notes written by you from T-shirts I bought long before Logan was writing them. The t-shirts are gone but the notes will live on. I was interested in you and what you were doing as it was different to everyone else. The bus work, the car builds even the late night rambling monologues from the Texas space. I tried to get into the NASCAR history stuff but being in the UK NASCAR was never a thing. I have plenty of history on old racing from the Bentley boys to F1 and living 2 miles from Silverstone and 12 miles from Santapod that history is around me every day. I have friends who have worked for GT series,Lemans, Historic,Touring Car, F1and WRC teams so the stories of bending the rules are the same as the NASCAR stuff. Motorsport is all about the grey areas and always will be.
At the end of the day man you earn your money from TH-cam views so you have to do what you have to do to survive. Im still subscribed but the History for me is not relevant the builds transcend the different countries as building cars is building cars. I watch when I see something that interests me now where as before I watched it all because it was so varied and showed the true life of a content creator.
I miss the projects and was just thinking about messaging yall yesterday about them, im still here, lol
Great video Mitchell!! I understand the frustrations and hardships because we have all faced them in one way or another. Keep your head up. People will come and go just like anything in life, but those of us who have been here for the long haul love the content, no matter the subject. Personally, I look forward to them all after working and finally getting to sit and see updates or whatever is new. You’ve got a ton of supporters and each and every one of us are cheering you on man. Keep up the great work!!
Oh nice an update on your builds, love seeing your variety man.
Not much of an update on the original builds but definitely an update on one of them!
@@Stapleton42 hey brother im here for it all.
Mitchell you do you and chase your dreams! It's about living YOUR LIFE for you! not pleasing everyone else. You're totally right that the world is being taken down a REALLY shIt route and a massive amount of people are blind to reality, distracted by the bullshit being purposely pushed as they've done through history to change the route of humanity.
I've got a massive respect for you both for simply being real ! And the respect you have for everyone you've met/interviewed and your pation for the sport you have always loved!
ENJOY EVERY PART WHILE YOU CAN. from here in the UK 🇬🇧
Thank you Anton. I know exactly what you’re talking about 🫡
You guys do a fine job and certainly viewers care about how you guys are doing as what you are doing is not easy and hope you know how successful you have been already and we look towards the future and always hope for the best for you and Logan and Shelby
This is why i’m here. Happy to have OG Mitchell back. Been here since Nov 2020 at 29k subscribers or something like that, i’m the guy that airdropped you some footage at Yello Belly the first time you were out there running Uncle Rob.
Came for the builds and the Mitchell mindset knowledge dumps, happy to hear it’s all still in there. While I understand why you’re doing what you’re doing with the Nascar stuff now, this is the content I miss. How is the Newell doing?
Thanks man. It needs some professional inspection for me to feel comfortable driving it long distance. Just for a stamp of approval
@@stapleton42extra definitely understood, especially since its been a few years i’m guessing since it was driven on a long trip?
Still have the Audi?
I love this channel. I am not a big fan of trucks that drag race, but I did enjoy the drag strip videos. When you moved and changed to Nascar, I was shocked but not disappointed. I love 80s and 90s Nascar. I will keep watching for sure.
thanks man!
Not gonna lie. I started watching your channel when you did Rocky Mountain Race Week.I enjoyed a lot of your videos. But most of the old school NASCAR stuff has been hit and miss with me. It is a very important part of motorsports history that needs to be put out there. But I am not really into watching them myself. But just like anything in life. If it sparks me. I'll watch it. Keep doing you and what you want man.
Channels came along way still enjoy the videos, looking for more updates of Logan‘s car she’s done a lot of great work!
Thank you for doing this. We all love both of you!
You're the best!
Been here all along. Glad to see Doug is helping you out on your stock car.
I'm one of the ones that is here for what you 2 are doing. No matter if its living in a race trailer, to the rv in texas, to were you are now. Just keep being who you both are. It doesnt hurt that I'm a big nascar fan too, but i watch to see what yall have going on.
Thanks Nathan it won’t be for nothing. I still feel like we are in the beginning phase
Hang in there. What you described is just the life of a gear head! If we had unlimited funds and not all of this life stuff we could finish a lot more cars. When I was young I had time and no money... now I have the money but no time!
I have watched since you pulled into motion raceworks with the escalade
Hey Mitchell and Logan, been a subscriber since the Dale sr coach video. I love your videos and you being a home town boy from Butler makes it special . Keep doing you and taking us along for the ride. Always watch to the end.
Man that was a long time ago!
Im so sorry for your grandma, man you doing awesome videos and i appreciate what you doing for the industry we need people like you and i watched you go through ups and downs, some times you have to learn the lesson in the hard way and i believe in you and you gonna be successful as always, love you my brother love your content keep it up 👏🏼
thank you mohamed
I appreciate where you have taken your channel, I do miss your builds and your sense of humor. Eventually you will may need to have a build channel and a nascar history channel. I would watch them both, I think I’ve seen nearly every video you have made since you stopped in at motion race works with your Newell. I loved the eclectic mix of topics and you sharing your adventures. Thanks for all you do! I’ll keep watching!
Thanks man 💪🏻
Mitch, we are still here watching I just ordered another shirt me and my wife are dedicated I hope we run into you in NC when we go down in August
I’ve been here since the early days of the Escalade. Love the build content, but also find the history stuff very interesting and enjoyable. You have to do what works for you and keeps your interest. Going through the motions with no passion isn’t good for you, and doesn’t make great content.
The builds and the history are both great content. If you put out a video on making a ham sandwich, I would watch. Your personality and drive you put into your products make us interested. Projects come to life and some get pushed to the side as money and time conflict. You both are great sources of knowledge, and your willingness to learn from history say a ton of your character.
I appreciate the update. Was never really subscribed for the project cars, personally. First saw your video on starting JH's truck after he flipped it in the pond. Stayed for the incredibly passionate NASCAR content. Just here for anything you want to show us!
Howdy from Sydney, Australia. I came across your channel by chance. Never knew much about NASCAR, or thought I cared. Oh boy… thank you Sir for sparking my interest. Your history videos pull on my heartstrings and I’m now so thrilled to be obsessed with another are of Motorsport. You do it so well. Thanks for the videos and your values. Got a follower here for life.
Wow that is awesome to hear! Thank you
Man I live the racing content you been doin since you moved but hell I'm glad you talking bout the race cars now. Glad to see em
Thanks man
@Stapleton42 no problem bud. I can honestly say you and cleetus got a fire lit under my ass back when covid hit to get my car goin and running. Thank you. Hope all well down there.
Been here for a few years. I don’t remember why I came. But I know why I’ve stayed. Y’all are amazing and genuine. Down to earth and relatable.
Thank you 💪🏻
To add to the “You might think I’m crazy” comment at around 26 minutes, wise man once told me “It’s only crazy if it doesn’t work or happen”. It’s awesome to see you step by step achieve your goal and dream. Look forward to when it comes to fruition.
thanks man
All the builds were why I started watching and you were the one who got me into Andy Frisella and 1st Phorm. I hate to say that I gradually fell off but this video reminded why I need to get back onto your stuff. Your head is in the right place and you know what you need to do. You are just as important as the content about the Nascar history you’re bringing to light. Keep doing your thing man!!
Thanks man!! Have you used my legionnaire link? 😂
@@stapleton42extra I did not know you were a legionnaire. I am working on getting on board right now.
Awesome job. I was wondering what was going on with the projects. Just have to stay a few videos ahead of your actual progress. I think enough people have projects that never get finished. Everyone loves seen seeing a project completed.
Looking forward to sitting down and watching this tonight! I enjoyed the older videos about the Monte, Escalade, and Rolls. Also very stoked about your stock car build. Makes me feel a little better knowing that it's not just my projects gathering a little dust from time-to-time!
I was one of those people watched every single one of you vids back 20-22 🙏🏻
What I appreciate most about you and Logan is your honesty. You always keep it real. Kudos! 👍
Man I’m a drag racer and started following you with the drag and drive/ Newell content but I grew up being a big nascar fan when I was a kid and when you started the history stuff you opened up a lot of forgotten memories for me. Now I love everything you and Logan are doing. You even have me thinking doing the history stuff with old school drag racing. Keep it up man you’re one of my favorite TH-camrs.
Thanks man 💪🏻
Appreciate you guys so much. This is Bro Gene, my channel name changed but I’ve been onboard since the Escalade and your move from OK to TX.
I’m still thankful you guys started carrying 5 & 6x when I asked.
I had lots of time on my hands back then. The trajectory of my life shifted drastically in 2021 when my son was killed in NC.
Thank you for the update! Still a fan and I will be buying Merch again soon.
I believe I found your channel with the Rolls. Maybe alittle before (I had to create a new account because YT doesn't like some truths being talked about on here so they deleted me, twice). But I've stayed with you because I believe we have alot of the same intrests in racing history and seeing that racing history preserved for future generations. I also want to see you and Logan both succeed. Money's been tight so all I can do right now is give of my time watching and with likes an commenting on every video.
I'll see the thumbnail and title and sometimes not know who they are. But after the video I know that I'll never forget them. You're a very good story teller and you ask the questions that we don't normally get to hear about. Plus, the hidden memorabilia that very few people have ever seen. *Most of these Men in your videos are a hidden Treasure and they deserve a spot light on them.* I'm not looking for perfectly made video just intresting ones and that's what we get.
I don't know if youtube Shorts are worth making and if you do make them I don't get notifications for em. Shorts might get you out to more people like us that value the good ol days and their stories.
*I just want to say Thank You for all the good work and sacrifices you and Logan have both made to bring us these videos and for capturing history and memories for future generations 🇺🇸🏁.
Thanks man. That’s the goal hopefully of people don’t know who the guest is they will learn during the video!
Nice meeting you at the Mustang birthday party. Any person that hates on you needs to meet you in person and realize a seven foot intelligent gentleman is only finding his path and wave to ride. Great work no matter who hates.
Key note : "the world we live in now". Everyone gets a trophy, chicken is made of tofu, boys have boobs and electric cars play exhaust sounds through the stereo. I'm not necessarily a Nascar fan (especially now with stage racing ) but I do enjoy the history stuff and the shop tours a lot a lot. I see the project cars in the background of the vids, I know they'll get some attention again. No rush. Tomorrow is another day. Don't let the bots get you down.
I’m still here watching. It’s just interesting and the old school racing interviews are great
Glad you shared this. I can totally relate. My life, family, career, business, & personal projects have followed a similar struggle arc. The sacrifices are endless and the lessons are priceless. You had a quote in one of your videos a long time ago, something along the lines of “putting in the work when no one’s looking”. Have always felt the same way. It’s not easy. You’re building something special. Keep digging!
Thanks man 💪🏻
I still pop in for some Nascar history videos every now and then, but as much as I hate to say it, thats not what I subscribed for. I subscribed for the cool builds and you guys talking and cracking jokes and shenanigans. The new Nascar and historical content is cool, just not what I was originally here for. But at the end of the day, you have to do what makes you happy, and keeps you in the green as well. 👍
I admire you for what you're doing and how you're doing it you're only live once and if you don't enjoy your life while you can it won't wait on you. keep doing your shows about things in the past and move forward on things you want. GOD bless always 👍👍👍👍
