Very cool. Years ago, I was probably 12 or 13, (1962, I think) . My father bought me a quarter midget. We didn't have any organized racing in the area, unfortunately. But, Dad fired it up and just had me drive circles around our house. An hour or two later, my mother got home and there was, where grass used to be, a track cut into our yard. The ruts in the corners were so deep, Dad could never again get them leveled out. Hadn't thought of that it many, many years, so thank you Mrs. Holmes for the pleasant reminder.
That was great Tanner your mom did great for first time was so special watching you and Carly's faces enjoying your Mom's run Thank you taking us along yes the Mom quote " I'm going to send it" cracked me up what an awsome mom
I can remember when my dad let my grandpa drive our sprint car for the first time, watching your mom drive kind of reminded me of my grandpa at age 69 drive a 360 sprint car for the first time....your mom did good. These are fund videos...
Wow that was so special to have your mother Mrs. Holmes take some laps. This was a very fun video...one of my favorites! Cannot wait to see Papa Holmes behind the wheel shredding the track!! You guys are awesome!!! God Bless!!
Yes......tanner listens to comments. I knew we would see this....dad better get some seat time bc I know that race is coming.....thank you tanner....u guys rock!
Awesome video Tanner! Loved seeing the backyard track. More videos on that track please. Loved it You’re mom is a great sport. Family always. Merry Christmas Holmes Family
Mom did GREAT!!! next time she'll do a lot better cause she knows now what it feels like...... All for Mom & Dad on the track at the same time. Thanks guys, really enjoyable!
Awesome content. So cool to have someone else experience what y’all do. I still race bmx ( as an old dude) and get so annoyed when parents yell ”pedal pedal pedal” at their kids, but they have zero track experience and have no idea what they are talking about. Yes, you should have a mom vs dad race!
Your my favorite TH-camr and thats so cool to see your mom ride: edit. Omg thank you so much for the 💗 tanner I can't explain how happy I am. God bless you and your family
Fantastic! Many years ago my sister got in my sprint car and took a few laps on and improvised track. She thought she was really going, I was sure she was going to kill the engine at any time.
Ok. It's like this. ...living in Fl, people will say thing like "oh, it's so cool to live close to the beach", and stuff like that. Now, I know the winters are BRUTAL,. but DANG, southern Oregon is BEAUTIFUL!!! And to actually have seasons, too. We have 2, hotter than hell, and cold!! LOL!! You really are living the dream!!! Oh, And BTW, your mom is AWESOME!!! LOVE IT!!!!
@@TannerHolmes I grew up in Klamath Falls. We'd go to the Medford area to warm up! People were out mowing lawns there, while we still had snow piled up in the streets. They'd be racing in Medford, but not over in K. Falls for a while!
All of your videos are so great, and this one, especially, was so much fun, stuffing Mom into the race car! No wonder you and Carly do so well at the races - you have your own race track to practice at, right there at home. How big is the track? I'd guess about 1/8 mile. Well done, and I'm enjoying watching from my office in Portland. Have a great Thanksgiving!
I love it she’s got the racer swagger and pit talk down . Oh and very confident, I suppose that comes from mothering a winning team ! 💕👍. Tanner & Carley Shane on you guys sending mon out on the track with NO BRAKES ..... lol deuces too double trouble ! ( is that where that came from “Deuces” ? I still can’t stop laughing 😂 Great work ! I think ?
@@TannerHolmes yes it would look really suspicious and poor old dad would go down for it ! Just kidding in know way just a lot of fun . Have you ever thought about hosting a work shop or dirt kart day camp for kids or adults that may be interested in getting into the game? Of course in the off season if you’ll ever get time off , you must be the busiest 17 yo I know of ( legitimately busy) lol 😂
Thats mint! You guys should definitely make it a winter project to see how fast you can get your mom going round there by the end of the winter 👌 practice your coaching
Hey, Tanner, did you tell your Mom that on dirt you steer these things with the throttle? You Mom was looking good out there and it will be great to see both her and your Dad on the track together. Thanks for sharing, Happy Thanksgiving, God Bless all of you and stay safe.
I wish I would have had the same relationship with my parents when i was racing. My Dad was a modified driver back in the day, (1967), And I let him drive my mini sprint in 86 and the grin on his face will never be forgotten when he climbed out. he passed away a few months later. So as I watched your video I was so happy for you and Carly I cried...i dont know why this posted twice, hmmmm.
Tanner you gotta be proud. Momma did send it. Get her a smooth track next time I bet she goes really fast. How far south in California do you race carts? We live just northeast of Sacramento about an hour or so from chico. Keep the vids coming
Tanner, Your mom is like 21 or 22?!? That would put her in the delivery room when she was like, 5 tops. :) My mom would never fit into my racing suits. But she did sew them up for me from scratch. Of course, that was back in the '50s racing Quarter Midgets.
I’m really curious at what speed the wing starts to take effect. The thing most new people have trouble understanding is race cars are designed to be driven at high speeds. Once the suspension is loaded and aero take effect then it becomes much more stable.
@@TannerHolmesright. The frame IS the suspension. Also I noticed the upper frame/cage seems to flex independently on outlaw karts. I have a theory why but maybe you could shed some light on this?
Sorry but when she said she was going to send it I figured you all would be pulling her back down on all four tires!👍😂🇺🇸🙏, Happy 🦃Thanksgiving Holmes Family.
That’s a definite lifetime memory for each of you.
That was fantastic!!
Good on you, Mom !

My wife and I were giggling the whole time we watched. You're a trooper Mrs. Holmes. Great family. God bless!!!
You killed it Mom so proud of you!
She did great!
This was rad! Thanks all of you.
Totally freekin awesome, and super great family values......you guys rock....:-)

Appreciate that man!
Fantastic!
Many years ago my sister got in my sprint car and took a few laps on and improvised track. She thought she was really going, I was sure she was going to kill the engine at any time.
Go mom! All things considered, you did great for a first timer!
Nice job for a first time!

Tanner! Y'all will have to Build 4 Sprint Cars, and get Y'all on the track together! Way To Go Mom! Nice Job for your first time out!
Yes a family race lol
That was a awesome video MoM!! Can’t wait to see DaD vs MoM race 😎🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I met you guys in Az and I'm TRULY a HUGE fan of your family! Fun watching Mom doing laps!! She's a CUTEY! Good Luck with you and Carly! 😁😁😁
Look at her BIG SMILE!
Oh I enjoyed this video. Tanner, you had such a twinkle in your eyes Before she completed her 1st lap..I laughed , loved it
Great video Tanner !!!
My first time was at Knoxville in a 360.. I was like woooohoooo.. I'm flying.. then the field flew by🤣🤣😍
Hello nice to meet you
She is such a good sport! My mom would never get in my cars. Even to steer it when we were moving them around the yard
She is awesome for sure!
Great job! The sensation is the the thing to get used to. Next time you’ll be so much better
Hello
That is neat to have your mom to try to run. Another kart purchase in the future. LOL!

Thanks man! Yes close to 1/8 mile. Almost same size as red bluff
Thank you so much that was great
Love to see mom an dad on the track together.

Wow that’s pretty good for her first time! I bet I would do worse!😂 (who ever did the first one was good!)
Cool stuff! Yeah get both the parents on the track!
Nice job Mom.. I really enjoyed this
Awsome job moms. !!!!!

Yes we will make it a project!
Hands down coolest mom ever

Way to go Mrs. H!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a great video I want to see Mom and Dad
Good job Mom
Hey, Tanner, did you tell your Mom that on dirt you steer these things with the throttle? You Mom was looking good out there and it will be great to see both her and your Dad on the track together. Thanks for sharing, Happy Thanksgiving, God Bless all of you and stay safe.
Yes she thought she was going faster than she was lol.
Did a great job
I wish I would have had the same relationship with my parents when i was racing.

So as I watched your video I was so happy for you and Carly I cried...i dont know why this posted twice, hmmmm.
Wow good job
This is awesome!! Your mom should race.
Go Mom
that was awesome
Your mom is very pretty and did great!
Tanner you gotta be proud. Momma did send it. Get her a smooth track next time I bet she goes really fast. How far south in California do you race carts? We live just northeast of Sacramento about an hour or so from chico. Keep the vids coming
We race in Red Bluff! just 3 hours south of where we live!
@@TannerHolmes ok just let us know next time your there we will drive up!
Mom’s rule !!!
Tanner, Your mom is like 21 or 22?!? That would put her in the delivery room when she was like, 5 tops. :)
My mom would never fit into my racing suits. But she did sew them up for me from scratch.
Of course, that was back in the '50s racing Quarter Midgets.
very nice !
Funny story my mom raced for a few years and was really aggressive. She won a few races but I never got to see her race
Simply awesome ❤
Great job
I’m really curious at what speed the wing starts to take effect. The thing most new people have trouble understanding is race cars are designed to be driven at high speeds. Once the suspension is loaded and aero take effect then it becomes much more stable.
These cars don’t have suspension. I do think in karts tho the wing is a huge deal. Obviously more at full throttle then my moms pace lol
@@TannerHolmesright. The frame IS the suspension. Also I noticed the upper frame/cage seems to flex independently on outlaw karts. I have a theory why but maybe you could shed some light on this?
Better ge that mud scraper out 🤪
Yes i am a crew guy now lol
Sorry but when she said she was going to send it I figured you all would be pulling her back down on all four tires!👍😂🇺🇸🙏, Happy 🦃Thanksgiving Holmes Family.
What a COOL mom. Please smooth out the track....GetOnit!
I love your raceing I have Watched All of your videos I am a 9 year old raceer
