To pay for the repairs on the Freedom Factory, Cleetus started an onlyfans account that only has pictures of 10mm sockets in their hiding places
@Jamie Fultz I feel like they're is a species of gnomes that come and "borrow" 10mm sockets and sometimes they bring them back and sometimes they don't but they're a lot like the "underpants gnomes" of south park, Colorado.
Wait what about the 13mm sockets in fact I am still looking for my 10mm and 13mm sockets for my ratchet and my breaker bar but yesterday I managed to find a 13mm if mine in my shop vac and to be honest I don’t know how it ended up in there but that’s like one in a million of that kind of thing happening to a rookie carpenter and a guy who literally builds his own tools aka myself so what I have is my own shed where it is small but I have made tools to fit into the shed like if it was made to fit so I still have space to park my small project car which I have started right from a simple piece of plywood to a full on chassis and a special frame flex system that I have designed myself where I can completely eliminate the use of springs on the wheels entirely where I would have issues normally if there were coil overs that could’ve caused pressure with the wooden base plate
Man I don't know how somebody's going to beat that one

@Jamie Fultz BURN THE WITCH
Are you running water on the cutting heads??
Keep up the awesome work. Hope I get a chance to come see the FREEDOM FACTORYwhen it opens. #MURICA
If you don't need money stop asking bro be more like whistlin D
200k for bleachers?
So glad he got off the grass . Dont want more damage to the sprinklers plus it's some nice grass dont want to ruin that
It's basically kickstarter man don't think of go fund me as giving u it it's cuz people want to see this place be better. And see the potential u see bro
Fuck all these people talkin shit bubs u got it bro u need to start a go fund me for this race track I'm serious the track deserves to me better and needs to there is so much of a community around the world that would help think if everyone that watcha gave 50cent
So the conceseion area will be air conditioned?
Just want to say you guys are doing great things, love the content. Plus RG is an awesome and rare friend to have! Keep up the great work!
You guys ship to Hawaii?
Too once all these problems are fixed then you need a drag strip, what’s a freedom factory without a drag strip. I’d hold as much events as possible with entry fees, this is cool af
Where’s your helmet Cleeter?
Your all doing a great job
Pay me now or pay me later,,either way your gonna pay!
I do NOT like the religeous undertones with that 3 : 16 guy :/
Freedom factory 'get off my lawn' shirt haha
See previous comment regarded selling engraved brick to donors could install in the entire infield of the track lots of room for thousands of engraved bricks with donors name on them would make everyone feel a part of the track forever. Take care keep at it.
See my comment on previous video regarding track repair help could be big revenue generator.
Half mill in repairs. Steep but eagle sexy. A1
When sandbox is life 😂
Just ordered a shirt I have no problem supporting cleetus and his crew for there hard work I hope one day I get to go see a race at the FF!
I appreciate the transparency and honesty with this sort of stuff. Keep it up.
It really makes me feel a certain way whenever I realize you’ve yet to redo the whole track 😫
just ask mr beast to sponsor the track. then you can rebuild the entire track.
What a unit
The tracks on the mill swivel out ward? SEND IT
This was the the first shareholders meeting of the FF since we are all invested in the Freedom Factory and Cleet himself.
Are you going to run a regular multi class race season?
Why can’t you ash straight over the top of old track
I would love to order a couple of Freedom Construction 🏗 🚧 🦺 shirts but don’t need all the other stuff. Can I order a shirt👕 without the dirt?
you got a million views on this video in a week. 20k shouldn't be a problem for you. I remember your videos before ad blocker, we know you are making the money.
You say you´ll sell less, I´ll say you sell more Brother! I hope you guys have a great year!
There's a saying in the electrical industry, "wire is the cheapest thing we do". Don't fret the timing loops :)
Out here supporting my favorite FIworldr 🙌
Ya know....if every subscriber sent one dollar...
Definitely a very large undertaking ☮
Idea: Do a gofundme to raise money to not only redo the track but add safer barriers. Then make it so that every person who donates to the gofundme will get their name(or name of choice) added to a the walls outside of the concession stand like they do put the names of fallen soldier on memorials. This gives the donator something(their name/or name of choice) enshrined at the freedom factory in a place where everyone who comes in can see it.
Your a great man! Now I want to definitely buy a shirt
You are by far the most humble man around. I am honored to be following you since before you even made Leroy! True fan here. Love you guys! Murica 🇺🇸
The transparency is so nice to see. Financials are such a hush-hush topic, but hearing about it and the transparency of your supporters makes me want to support it more lol
That's a cool piece of heavy machinery and all, but it's pretty tame compared to the Killdozer.
I just appreciate the clarity and transparency. What a real youtuber. *nice job* cleetus
Just ordered the freedom factory construction shirt package! Can’t wait to get it, and can’t wait to keep seeing updates! Super excited to see what is to come!
i would donate cash if you had a go fund me to repave this beauty
Question... Why not just do it by hand
I would love to order a couple of Freedom Construction 🏗 🚧 🦺 shirts but don’t need all the other stuff. Can I order a shirt👕 without the dirt?
This video backs up why cleetus is my favorite FIworldr!
If I win the lottery, I’ll pay for your whole track to be redone. No strings attached.
They need to learn how to run that mill properly. They literally used the bump mill while the mill is there for that matter lol
i feel old i remenber that shit at 12k sub
Definitely a very large undertaking ☮
this track is far from steep !!! lol
with all the money they have BLOWN on all those cars they bought and fixed up and raced and tore up, and all the other stuff they have BLOWN money on since buying this track, they could have made all the repairs needed to actually have REAL races on this track....
That money is nothing to a baller like you!
Lose sales the fack that your going out of your way to explain knowing you might lose sae makes me want to buy merch
7:45 reverse psychology tells you he’s not hurrying for money when really he is or else he wouldn’t of came up with merch memorbellia. Puts it in peoples heads that we can get something cool! Like part of the track lol 😂
This is the old Desoto speedway
Mr beast where you at 👀
A 2x4 hasn't been a 2x4 in almost 100yrs don't believe me check for yourself.
Hell yeah brother
Is your ceiling fan at fiworld.info/goon/oK3Htn-umoChi6s/videot.html a clock? That's cool.
Hey Cleeter so the wife said no to me getting the FF Construction bundle but that's because I just ordered the "Pistons, Rods, and Dad Bod's" shirt last week. When that stimulus comes in though 😎...
The Cat skipped leg day
For the banked track, I'd give the surface a light mill and put an extra lift of pavement down to give it some thickness. If you want to cut corners even more, you might be able to get away with just a chip seal before the next lift. The cars you're running are all light enough that making the pavement too thick won't be too much of a problem, just make sure to use stuff with the right temp rating. If you want some pro-bono engineering work to investigate some of this stuff, I'm a Civil Engineer and I'd be more than happy to help.
Straightforward, no BS. Exactly why I'll buy a shirt.
Need a sweeper for the posi, saves so much time on cleanup
RG: spends 800,000 dollars on a new mill Cleeter: ooo what's this button do?
For all the people u lost by saying all that you gained one purchase because I’m gonna buy one now
That was great!
Subbed! Give my page a like and sub as well! Raymond Dawson’s empty pocket racing! Just starting mine. Will have all kind of turbo shenanigans as well as informative stuff for diesels
Love this show, wake up early just to watch it ??
Man I wish more youtubers discuss financial stuff. Some of just like how much stuff like that cost. I know it’s a taboo to talk about your finances. We can learn a thing or two of how you’ve become successful with money. We are all trying to get to that point.
What a unit
Yeah no, fixing the damaged track sections makes the most sense rather than a full repave, however spending $5k to replace 1 5 foot section of pipe without a liner instead of spending 20k to do the whole 175ft makes no sense. Especially when you’re already spending as much money as you are and if you have another issue along the way you’re gonna have to get it fixed right away again which is gonna pause things going on at the track and cost you another $5k unless you decide THEN to do the whole thing which then it’ll cost you $5k more than it should’ve and you’ll have to take another long pause while that work is being done. For just 4x the price and only $20k you could get 35x the amount of pipe fixed and protected for 50 years instead of having to fix small sections for $5k each time over and over again and not protecting them for nearly as long because of no liner. It’s a business investment but it makes sense to spend the money there because that’s serious maintenance that if it has another problem it’s gonna cost you again and again in both time and money. Rather than just spending the 20k now to have it all fixed and protected and not have to worry about it ever again most likely unless you still own the track when you’re in your 70’s and it’s time to be replaced and fixed up again.

Out of curiosity, does the FIworld channel make transfer payments to the FF for the use of the track when making content since they are separate legal entities?
It probably goes to the FIworld business account account and he transfers the money to the FF account when he needs to make purchases. Plus I bet he has an account that deals with that stuff. He’s probably still very involved with his finances.
First "If you Leased a Barber you could have a Pave and a Haircut" Comment, this Second.
Since y’all have this dope concrete pad. Getting those shifter carts out might be dope to do a few times. I’d love to see some content again with shifter carts!
Lol off the grass
Cleetus I am happy that you are getting the F F back in shape. When I was there, 40 yrs ago,it was De Soto speedway! It was the finest short track I have ever been to. I do hope you can return it to its glory get a promoter in there they can run some some speedway races I think that would be awesome. Best of Luck To you R D
If the Cat rolls over, don't try to rub the belly, you might get the teeth
The music reminds me of Cars video game on PS3
If wish you guys would wear some safety equipment: work boots, long pants, safety vests, etc.
cleetus i want to buy the bundle and my birthday is in 10 daysss
"Real quick" 9:00 later I didn't know you were related to my mother.. ;-)
Hey cleetus, one thought here from sweden, why not take small pices from the track in even spaces around the trac, number them and wright the same number on the place where it comes from, so when the tracks are used i might se my chunk of tracks origin, and you might be able to call out " aaaannnnd he spunout right at the 44 mark"
Rg. DONT TOUCH ANYTHING! Cleetus. Touch everything?
Let people throw money into the track even if it doesnt actually need it. Can always make it better. Patreon or some dono page
So when will the dirt be available for purchase?
Cleetus ever thought take out all pipes and replace with ashtro turf spray ya grass what ever colour.
why can’t you drill a new pipe just across track
You are a true entrepreneur in every sense of the word. I think what your doing is awesome. Can't make it home without breaking a few eggs.
I would love a shirt but I doubt you will be able to send dirt to Australia 🤔
You’re a good man!
R.G: "Don't touch anything." Cleetus: Touches a bunch of random buttons. R.G: "Stop it!" Me: 🤣
You should do whole track for even grip since you are going at it
I want to take my truck on this track.
out there is zero risk to his main business.
Good to see you're keeping them separate entities, and keeping track of the financial transfers between them - way too many people and businesses fail to do that and it one branch of their businesses fails it brings down the whole lot. I don't expect you to have a longer term problem as you seem to be, for the most part, a smart cookie. Oh, I would also recommend you talk to a GOOD business accountant, as there may be some tax breaks you can benefit from you're not aware of.
Cleetus, as an hvac and plumber by day, go with either the sleeve or replace the whole pipe. Please. 😁😁
I WISH I could help you with the track🙁 But like they say on the airplane, you must secure your oxygyn mask FIRST before helping others. So I need to take care of somethings with myself for now. I appreciate your honesty. Please keep us in the loop with everything that's going on with the track. I know you will be blessed with everything you need Cleet Ps Tell dimples I said happy belated. I feel kinda shy posting on his page. And I like his pit bike number 🤭 Happy New Year ❤️
Lame and no you didn't almost roll jackshit
