I think the HTF announcer is top shelf. He is unbiased, clear, concise and intelligent sounding. Props to him doing a great job for the HTF fans. Keep him on staff for as long as possibe !
Once again, proving how to handle yourself even when done wrong on the track. Hard to do at times especially at a dirt track but it shows class. Respect
@@William_99640 my opinion it's time for him to grab a hole a set of nuts and start pushing back get respect gain respect If not he'll be disrespected at all times. I learned that a long time ago I raced 45 years I started pushing back I started getting respect It takes a little bit but it works. ‼️
John ..wayz he suppose to do ..go down to 16 pit and cuss and fight ...nah ..they don't fly like that ..just beat um on track next time ..16 knowz he hooked him ..Jo Jo don't have to say anything to him ...✌️
You know I tip my hat to Joseph and how he drives. He is nothing but respectful to every one on the track. He races every one clean . To bad others can't do the same. Tough break guys but still proud of the HTF team.
I want to comment something away from the obvious intentional wreck, there is a saying, "work until your idols become your rivals" well jimmy Owen's has been one of your guys favorite drivers for years and now you're right there with him. Congrats on that massive accomplishment.
@@kregyung4604 You do know that he has finished higher than him in several races, right? In this very race he was right there with him before he was taken out by someone else...I would say he is right there with him...
He definitely spun Joseph intentionally but Joseph didn’t go run into him a few times, spin him out under caution or tear up 2, if not more, good race cars. He went to the rear and did what he could to get a good finish. Then he/y’all handled it better than some 50 yr old men would have after the race. He didn’t go to his pit or anything like that. He didn’t bad mouth the guy, call him names or talk about retaliation. He just explained how the guy left a hole open and he filled it, which is racing and anybody at that level of racing for that amount of money is gonna do the exact same thing. He didn’t run over the guy, they just rubbed when the other guy came down on Joseph when he sawJoseph and thought “oh crap I’m getting passed”. Y’all are just good, genuine people who love late model dirt track racing and are dang good at it, and some people want to be where y’all are but don’t want to put in the hard work nor sacrifice what y’all have to get where y’all are, so they do crap like that. Don’t change a thing fellas!!! Joseph, if there’s a hole FILL IT UP!!! Keep digging guys, y’all are a true asset to late model dirt track racing. 👍🏼🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
Hello HTF well from what i saw on the replay definitely spun you he just drove thru you never made an attempt to go a little higher around you what goes around comes around but you guys handled it like pros good job on the driving Joseph and a fine job by the crew good luck tonight
You guys have the best attitudes that I've ever seen anyone have at the track as far as driver and team goes. Wish my crew and family could remain calm. I've always said if the driver doesn't raise he'll after a situation like this, then the family needs to follow suit. Let the driver handle his shit.
I agree,it's on the track let the driver deal with it, unfortunately it was usually me being a hot head myself,a couple embarrassing moments, controlling your emotions is most important . Now days I get why
Love watching you guys. Been watching since the small garage at Jonathons house. Awesome to see Ben Watkins racing with y’all. He’s from my local track. He actually has our track record. Talented driver.
It’s the paint scheme curse I’m telling it’s one of the coolest paint schemes I have seen but ever sence y’all had it on there it’s been getting wrecked
You all handled that really well. I'd imagine there had to be some conversation between both Joseph and the other driver. Surely the other driver admitted he was wrong there. Like Joseph said "Was it aggressive" Sure, it was. Did it stick? Sure, it completely did. Was he mad then proceeded to try to turn Joseph down the back stretch, then finally succeeded in turn 3? Absolutely. As Series Owners, Im sure it puts you all in a tough spot. Kinda in a bind. Does the other driver deserve a penalty or not? I don't think so, but I wasn't the one that was turned around either. Good racing all around. Amazing to see how far this group has came from the black and purple 56 car on a open trailer. Super awesome.
I’ve watched it several times my opinion is JJ did drive in hard and checked the field up but the intentional hit by 16 was not justified either way I think if they could do it again they both would’ve made different decisions imo
Joseph had the bottom going into one and drove up next to him. Yes Joseph slid up a little but he didn’t wreck him. I’m gonna say it again. Joseph needs to start putting them on the jig if they wreck them intentionally.
@@velo8784 Well that removes the benefit of the doubt then. Also, in replaying the whole thing in my mind, the amount of distance traveled in contact with JJ tells me the length of opportunity to apply brake....which was not applied. This was obvious to many.....but takes me more time to figure it out. I would make a poor referee as my accuracy would take 24 hours of thought. 🤣
Got done dirty on that spin out but hell of a run boys. Tunnel vision forward Hunt the front and keep digging. Driver keep that head up Joesph you been racing good all year. HTF crew yall are awesome with the work your doing and in a extremely time sensitive situations. LETS GO BOYS!!!!!! HTF !!! YEE YEE!!!!!
Y’all all better be back in Shelbyville next month didn’t know y’all was down there gonna have to come down there say hello y’all definitely my favorite TH-camrs rn keep up the good work
Aggravating, but you can tell you guys are getting a little closer every week. A little better here, a little better there. Just keep punching and y'all will be in all these big races at the end. Thanks for uploading!
@@KenDavid-s1q yes it is because people can’t deal with shit in 2023. How long you have been around racing has literally nothing to do with facts. 30 years ago you could fight in the pits. Now you smack someone and you go to jail. So, yes,the attitude helps nothing at all. Be a real man and move on. Just like Joseph will.
That's dirt track all around for me , I drive asphalt but went to Kokomo Indiana a few times I did pretty good but it was frustrating to find speed sometimes, patience is more important on dirt I believe
He did spin him out. The right rear quarter was almost ripped off because he pushed Joseph. Up here, whoever spins you out goes to the back of the pack. You keep your position. It's the way it should be. I was a 3rd corner flag man at the rice lake speedway and witnessed many guys bumping other cars going through turns 3 and 4 in the right rear. Its hard to bring the car back once it starts going with that momentum. It's a sad deal.
It just hard racing but I think he did spin him out on purpose! But hey just keep trucking! Be safe and I enjoy every minute of it! Always something 😂!
Yep that was dirty what Horton did for sure. No way I could have held it together after the race not to go show how disappointed I was with Horton. I would just want to slap the dirt out of his eyes for I was sure he just couldn’t see, or to make sure lost a contact when I was done. Wow you a better man than me Joseph for sure. Still well done guys. There is a win in your future I can feel it. Keep rolling
Joseph leaned on the 16 at the start going into the corner and 16 didn't like it and took him around. Kinda like when Labonte leaned on Earnhardt leaving it open to be turned for the win at Bristol .
That was a chicken 💩 move by Horton! He spun his tires, left the bottom open, got passed, then proceeded to act like an idiot. I don’t know how you fellas keep your cool sometimes.
I just can’t get over how easy-going you guys are. I have to honestly tell you man back in the day when somebody did that to me I was on them like Stink on a Monkey. There will be an opportunity at some point to even things out. Will you take that opportunity or not? Only time will tell lol.
Racing with people who have no respect. Very few can do it but JJ is one of the few. Stay true to who you are, I see a lot of checks on the shop wall. You have a great fan base and sponsorships. Remember...........only the good guys win in the end!!! If you don't know what this means then you don't know who their mais sponsor on the spoiler is!!!!!!! If they get rid of that sponsor then they could follow some of the advice being thrown around here. HTF stay true to who you are, you know it works!!!!!!!!!!!
Because they are not racers. They’re social media influencers. Big difference. They could care less about results. It’s all about likes and 👍 You hillbilly cheerleaders think these guys are trying to win is utterly hilarious
HTF is 100% high class, from the driver to the commentator you guys handle yourselves with the up most respect and intelligence on and off the track to all other drivers even when they are in the wrong, hats off to all of you
It doesn't matter if all of us fans respect them, in which we do, but at some point you have to let them know if you are wronged, they will be as well. There's a time to forgive and move on and there's a time to show we're not push overs.
Horton left the hole open, and Joseph did what any other racer would’ve done, Horton got butthurt bc he got passed, I’m sure he doesn’t care about wrecking his, daddy will fix it lmao Joseph has got one level head tho! I would’ve waited on him to pass me and made him barrel roll
Someone get that man a safe space to be in since he can’t drive into a corner properly at the start good gracious had it happen to me several times lol and I’ll say you handled it way better then me cuz I had to pay for stitches and a fine and bail but he did come in my pit swinging while I was getting out of the car
At the track I work at I would have put Joseph back in his spot put the 16 at the rear and if he so much as to touch another car would have been put in the pits
Yep, you got turned by an angry driver through no fault of your own. You guys continue to handle it like gentlemen and we all respect your for the way you respond to adversity. Hopefully, Karma will help even things out for you guys in the near future. The car is running extremely well and Joseph is driving it like a confident driver should drive it. Best Wishes for Duck River and then the rest of the season.
You guys should put a poster or something on the ceiling when you first come in the hauler. The reflection makes a upside-down cross. It kinda freaks me out. Lol

Yes it does show class but also in the same sense got to remember You can't be pushed around cuz let it go They're going to keep doing it.

“Off your ass and on your feet, out the shade and in the heat.”
Let’s go HTF!
That took the "rubbing is racing" quote to the extreme. LoL. Go HTF
He left the bottom open you filled the void. End of discussion. Very professional of you Joseph I couldn’t have the same restraint!
It’s the paint scheme curse I’m telling it’s one of the coolest paint schemes I have seen but ever sence y’all had it on there it’s been getting wrecked
If ya leave the bottom open and someone fills that opening --- you can't blame the guy doing the filling!!!
Don't worry about it. Y'all r right. He filled the hole and got help in the next corner.
Well that was a bummer. Not to be forgotten I hope.

It's call bad Sportsmanship, and it is dirty racing. He turned him around, from best I could see.
Yea he definitely spun you out, good work on handling yourselves an not going to have words with him, good work crew, thanks for sharing
So intentional yall are a lot better than most people I think about 90% of people would be having some words with him for sure
Yep made the stands mad all of us were fuming
Good hard racing!
In the words of Ray, "Sometimes she goes sometimes she dont"
Keep ya head up!
Way she goes…
I cant say if it was intentional, but absolutely careless if not. One thing I can say, the HTF series has got a lot of motivated drivers.

Horton got him. Racing dirty like a child driver
Awesome try. Unfortunate that happened. Nice job HTf team
Good drive Joseph--he just got mad you passed him on the inside.
That was dirty. Great race. Go get them at the next one
You were taken out! Plain and simple! Keep going and don’t look back!
All I can say is that track reminded me of Eldora slick as a minnor. Makes it hard to pass that's for sure.
Class act guyz ..chin up ..roll on ..go gettum ....✌️
With the patience you have have you should be on the very top of all dirt racing before long
Hopefully the luck turns around soon! Keep digging
It's good keep up th good work men
That saying in beginning is Off yo ass! On your feet!,outta the shade into the heat!
Terrible way to race. The 16 is a chicken sxxx driver. You guys handled it with class. Good luck Sunday.
That was a bush league move to spin ya. But carma is a taskmaster when it gets around to it !...
16 took him out!
I saw the main event and watched as that jackwagon intentionally spun out Joseph. PROTEST!
You can't protest contact
@@JJ-1-1 Is Horton going to get docked points for intentionally spinning out Joiner?
😂😂😂😂
He took you out for sure
What comes around..
Goes around.
JJ will have his turn... he will show he can play that game too
No he won't
No he won't...they never get back...they just take it and you get an well dang...that's why it happens because they know he won't retaliate
Chin up Boy's got taken out sorry for that but KEEP DIGGING AND HTF DUSES GOOD RUN JOEY
If you can’t beat them wreck them then.. Definitely intentional
The old dump and run don’t work anymore y’all keep it up good work
Can't wait until y'all get that wrap off that car... it's been nothing bud bad luck... Keep diggin boys!

Can yall go to the whynot motor sports race in MS on the 22nd of july
Think it time for the wrap to go. Looks awesome but nothing but bad luck since it been on.

Tough luck HTF team keep heading towards the front!

That wrap has been bad luck take it off
Get the chain binder off the trailer we gonna runble lol my buddy a lorain county speedway in the 80s lol
Nothing but bad luck since that new wrap it seems.
Yep agreed . Funny how car color brings bad luck
Could be divine intervention.
Hope the bad luck is over with , but love the new wrap
I'm confident it ain't the color. It's they are fast and up where it counts.....
