November 18-20. Sponsored by HTF. Pretty cool of them and it's in their backyard,but that's not a very good track.

Maybe it's not the greatest track, but it's a start! Shows like these are what help tracks make improvements to their facilities. I know that there are some people who aren't HTF fans for whatever reason. That said, love them or hate them they have the ability to add something big to this sport. A 25k to win show for a first ever event is a really big accomplishment.Quote:

Great concept….they aren’t knocking cars off jack stands with their 4 wheeler and they are pretty respectful to others…..like all of it.
I don't know of any personally, I love them and have been watching their videos for quite awhile now. I know based off of some of the characters around here there's bound to be one cantankerous person who likes to dookie on the success of others.
Yes! I'm happy for HTF! Maybe they will bring in some help for the track prep,or have a big part in it. The track is pretty cool. Maybe it just needs less "sandy" dirt?
Seems like they're living the dream. More power to them,and I hope they're just getting started.
Nice job by the HTF team. Give them a Grade A for marketing! They can market their team and race at the same time.
Here in Indiana, Brady Bacon promoted the USAC Silver Crown race at Winchester Speedway. He got major kudos and publicity for his efforts.
Brady promotes the usac midget race at port city as wellQuote:

So Hunt the front is promoting this event and all the purse???
I’ve mentioned several times already on here but I’ll do it again. Race teams are missing out on serious publicity/money by not doing the same thing or something similar to what HTF is doing. YouTube/tiktok/social media is king right now.
I can only imagine a national touring team doing something like this and giving the audience all the behind the scenes stuff. Would be an instant hit.
Only one I see come up in my YouTube recommendations is David Gravel. But I haven't seen it in awhile.
Yea Gravel seems to have cut back from what he was doing last year with the 41 team. I enjoyed checking in on him and team 41 occasionally.
So where is this race that HTF is promoting ?
In Florida....Quote:

I hope their buddy Bo Slay wins it.
Wow, something else I agree with Pennsboro32 on!!
its exactly what the Delph's and Castleberry's of the dirt world should have been doing years ago to stay ahead of the curve and draw in the younger crowds we all talk about needing. I guess its easier to sign a team to a guaranteed money contract and draw up a few press releases and print a few quotes!
I personally love watching HTF, Ryan Missler and even Hailey Deegan's videos. All of them are highly entertaining and are driving revenue to their respective teams vs knocking on doors with their hands out looking for 'sponsorship'.
If you could just get over the Sheppard/Larson stuff.Quote:

I agree with what Pennsboro32 said... doing it brings in exposure and revenue. But, doing all that is time consuming. I'm sure someone like Hailey Deegan doesn't do any of the video editing and has a team to do that for her. HTF has quite a few crew guys to get that done. It's hardly a one man show to do everything they are doing. Kudos to them for finding a way to get it done... I wish I had more time to do it for myself as well.
Haven't followed them in awhile .... what happened to Dirt Daddy?
I would imagine it would be well worth the money spent to hire a young person who is great with video editing/social media and that’s all they do.Quote:

What are you so mad/jealous about, Max? Somebody figured out how to support their racing team, and you get your panties in a wad? You need help.Quote:
