    The last segment of the video shows that Cleetus is a classy caring guy. To care enough about if someone else is going to simply feel bad about something, and to then do something so effortless to reverse that feeling such as that last little speech in the video, truly proves that there is a genuinely kind heart inside of that gentleman.
    What a rollercoaster of emotions this video gave me. At the end, I PERSONALLY was feeling bad about the car as if I WAS the one who crashed it‼️ Then you gave me relief with that speech to HIM‼️ Gahlleee Bro you have a way of connecting with your supporters it's incredible.
    Thanks again. Your videos carried me through my 3rd battle with stage-4 cancer, bedridden with nothing to do but watch cool videos and you were the one I was stuck on‼️
    I appreciate you.🙏

      Car was bouncing, and probably only has front brakes plumbed to the pedal. Cleet mentioned it had individually controlled rear brakes for steering while wheelie'ing.
      So seeing how the front is paper light, on leaf springs, and brakes are probably in the front (didn't see George using hand controls for rears), there was no way that thing was stopping.
      MAYBE, only MAYBE could he commit to hitting the bank, he may have been able to save it, or at least wall rub.

    What I've always liked about this channel is the human beings, not the characters or the story line or the empire. The actual people. Things were scary for a few moments but what will keep me coming back to this channel is that the second that car went over G wasn't a business owner, or a boss or a TH-camr or a Character he was just a buddy scared for his buddy. Thanks for entertaining us guys but definitely stay safe. Also not just helmets and fire suits... Get those window nets closed. Obviously many bad things could have happened but the real easy one would have been a limb crush if George had not kept his hands on the wheel. Good instincts George! Glad everyone is safe. Good that you all learned from it. Thanks for entertaining us we do deeply appreciate it, we all need to get our minds off the state of the world for a moment. Thank you and stay safe!

      My heart skipped a beat, for a moment all I could think of was "Not George!!!". Let's add real fire suppression systems to the entire fleet as well, they're pretty short money, fairly easy to fab in when the cage gets installed and pay for themselves 100 times over the one time that you actually have to pull the handle. Fire suits are nice and all (when people actually wear them), but real fire suppression systems can be amazing.

    Man you can hear the fear in Cleetus’ breath as he ran toward George. Glad George is ok, that was one heck of a scary situation. No weight in the front to plant the car down and the leaf spring front end just kept bouncing because of that making the stopping distance and controllability even worse. George did the best he could to save the car. That’s why they always have their helmets on whenever they’re on the track because you just don’t know when an incident can occur and it’s better to always be safe.

He wasn't wearing one most the time after buying the track even vaugn gitten said it scared him that he wasn't. Now they do wear them all the time but there's plenty of videos of them not wearing them.

    3. You guys absolutely HAVE to do a shakedown run in these things way before you stick a driver in the cockpit and go full-send.
    Anyway, sounds like you all came away from the crash with a new outlook, some good lessons learned, a new museum piece...and undoubtedly a "Golly, what in the world?!" Fiero t-shirt. 🤣
