  • We went wing racing in Michigan! Pretty excited to get back in the sprint car with the wing on. I only get to race it a few times a year. Back in the dub zero, which feels like home. First night blues. We had no practice and went into the heat rays on the front row, but we lost the front wing which made for some good TH-cam video. It was an exciting race and we ended up hard charger running fourth place from ninth as always. Thanks for watching the channel don’t forget to like and subscribe.

Hope to see more winged content! Non-wing 410 is my first love being an Indiana boy but theres nothing like the raw speed of a winged car! They look like they're teleporting around the track lmao

    Way to go, there was never any doubt in my mind. You are a professional Racecar Driver Thomas! As much as I love non wing racing I'm seeing the money is in wing racing. Windom and Courtney, along with Hunter and several others have moved onto those machines. I would hate to see you but understand. At some point you deserve a quality wage!

    hmm you were in quincy? thats not super far from the north indiana area, never been there but its same distance as the other dirt tracks from here maybe less it says its an hour from the auburn and fort wayne vacinity, so maybe even less then gas city or montpilier, and definatly kokomo, wish would have known maybe would have tried to come up though I take off enough for races, as for the performance well hey you might not always win but your usually a shoe in for hard charger, you got good control of the wheel and are as fearless as you are friendly, especially in a car you haven't had much chance to get time in, bring the two sprints with your midget to eldora at the four crowns this year, it will be fun, or is it just the midget again this year there

    TmezTv - as always , the very best racing content on TH-cam ! You’re in-car camera views are always amazing, the rear facing camera shots are insane. I personally love the split-screen videos and have to watch those 3 or 4 times. Tonight’s commentary is one of the best!
    I think most of your racing fans understand it takes a lot of time to edit and post your videos and all the Tmez fans appreciate the effort.
    Keep living your best life and good luck.

    It's an interesting perspective behind your left shoulder. You can defiantly see the car squat on the left rear tire. I am sure that's due to the wing. I'm sure the drive off the corner is much different in a winged car too? Seems like there is much more tip toeing with out the wing where as you just bury it in there with the hat on. Which do you like better , wing or non winged?
