Sick Week was an absolute blast. Unfortunately McFarland Racing didn't pull it together for a trophy, but the week all in all was a success. Mullet didn't make it but Ruby and the Ranger came through with some great runs!

Hell yeah brother, you're on the please! FR YouTube channel. Well twet getting the old carbon Cub Fired up for his long flight to South Georgia man I'm sure that's really going to suck flying there. Sure, there's going to be tons of traffic like yesterday I'm sure the air was just packed with bu of tra. It was fun while it lasted having the old carbon Cub here.
Oh now you're just showing off as we sit here. dude, what are we doing driving I don't know what are we really doing sick week but in airplanes be dial sick we you're watching this 2025. All right guys, we just sh Ride Along definitely a little bit more one on the way here we're on our way to South Georgia Beautiful night just pass checkpoint number one. the makes this easy all right.
Well Cletus is gone cuz he got the fly there VIP but we are loaded up Sam got all his stuff loaded you know? Sam literally has not a single thing in the back of his truck. but we are all loaded up ready to leave Gainesville and head to Georgia Sam you ready ready to go to? Georgia Right now here we go here we go. All right. First checkpoint out here at the Santa Fe Bar Everything's going smooth.
You guys had a little power outage back there. Oh yeah Power out. Not sure what happened, but hey we're good. This guy squirrel George's freaking cousin all the way down the game.
we just rain in traffic cut their power off Zach chased us A4 mile down the road on foot like he was going to catch us just running. He was Lit running like for think you could out I don't know. off causing a traffic jam. do it like you mean it.
Oh boy. all right guys, we made it to the next checkpoint. Look you like how I got the light set up on Ruby Here this is how we keep people out of the way when we're trying to bomb down the road. Ty and Zach right behind us Sam in here everything's going smooth and good.
Wheels and tires perfect. Everything is just going really good right now. Next stop here. Rascals Bar and Grill we thank Kyle a shot for his birthday but it's got water in it Yeehaw Happy Birthday Kyle Put her down.
You got to put it down. It's just water. Wow. took it like it was water we're out here at South Georgia Motorsports Park Got the cars dialed in cleat just said he's coming in with the Cub he's landing on the racetrack.
That baby's looking good. Ah, the man's about to land the airplane on the drag strip. I Mean this is great. chopping some speed, scrubbing her in just a Cub on the racetrack.
No big deal. Oh buttery touchdown for the Cubsy D he's on the racetrack. This is great. This is just great.
We're going to bring her down here. There we go. Come on dude, you're a race car. Yeah, you got to park over here with the race cars Dude, you're in.
I Felt left out over there on the track. look like there's some fences and stuff. So I figured I'd come over by you. Yeah, this is way better.
You know it's so nice out for flying. Hell yeah yeah. Great for driving race cars with no heat too. Yeah, 35 out here. whatever it is. So still leading the Bush class on day two. Feeling pretty solid about that. Yeah, and uh oh, you got your hat on too.
Really? I mean yeah. I'm I'm leading the Bush class. You are you are. FR Aviation Dude Number one, let's see if Ruby can get back to number one today.
What's the plan for today? Brother got my waist gate plugged back up. looked at the station though. we're negative 1,088 ft. Oh wow yeah.
so now we got to really guess on that tune up. Yeah, that other tune in there it'll go 7 90. We'll do a two-step check once we get switched over, see what it's picking up with the air on the break and see if we need to adjust the Boost accordingly. But we're definitely going to probably have to pull a little bit more timing out of it.
Hey George this guy just reminded me of something. No, no, don't worry, he's going to join you. You got to get over there with him. You better not let us down Dude.
All right dude. First duet of the trip. Be warmed up, switched over. going to do a two-step cheze arusi on her.
Oh yeah, much better now. we got our freaking waste gate plugged up. Cannot believe we missed that yesterday. But you know that's the name of the game.
You figure it out as you go. Really Dude, you're putting me in quarantine. You parked a damn airplane in the damn parking lot. What does this mean now? Uh, nothing.
It means I'm just too fast. Huh? Too fast for there you go. I am number one in the Bush class right now. so you are number one in the Bush class.
Leading makes sense that I'm it is 850 Dude, what the hell are you doing Zach Dude I'm bored. Are you trying to tint these windows right now? This boy had that purple wrinkled up tin I couldn't even see the check marks like what in the oh no dude. All right, we're up here in the lanes with Ruby ready for our first hit of the day. There we go.
Nice big burn out Ruby 857 All right. Well, that's a start. That's a start. 57 at 162.
Now we know where we're at. Yep, at least we didn't go at 820 exactly. Woo! All right. Solid.
solid. ATT Look at that dude. not even pulling in the pits George is ready to gas up. Jackon! At least we know we fixed our problem.
Yeah, it went uh 57 the0 he carrying a lot of mph though out the back. 162 most mph of the weekend. Well, so everything's fixed. Now you know our timing's back where it needs to be.
Our boost is back where it needs to be. Now we just got to see if we should pull less or pull the same for Less You know what I'm saying. Either take time or take timing out, we're have to put some timing in it to go a little faster. Oh hey, I can just hear it.
looked like about 15 and a half. Go with that. All right. up for round two: Jack Stand added one degree of timing plus r a little warmed up. We're hoping that equals you know, close to 850. You guys know what we're doing at this point. Ladies and gentlemen, at home, cross your fingers. We need an 85 right now from our girl Ruby All right, changed up P out 854 with a four at 163.
Okay, we're beating down on it. We went in the right direction, but that's not enough. It's definitely not enough. All right.
Solid. So uh, the 1 Dee back in it went a 54. So down the slip we went 12760 ft, 355 at 330, 547 to the Eth and then an 854 at 163. So uh, it's working.
just need a little bit more. All right. So this is the car that Ries up again 8 Rod 851 Oh man, right. So Ruby definitely has to go an 85.
Oh to be in front of that guy now. He just went to 851 putting the pressure on us, stopping by the old Freedom plus stream office. there he is Mr Ty in the ranger look at that thing dude. she looking good all right.
So on this first run Ty is just going to launch hard and then go to the Eth and let off and get his 10sec slip for the day. and then on his next run he's going to rip it. brother. What is this window tent situation? You got to get the other side.
You got to start somewhere. What in the world? Yeah, what's up Rustic? We're Going For The Rustic Nice Yeah. Patina window tent huh? My four years of knowing you I haven't heard you ever that fired up as you were yesterday. Listen I you were fired up I have never been that excited in my life I Don't think to finally go down a track.
Dude, it was sick it it was so exciting to finally just make a clean pass. Now it's just doing it. so fired up All righty. Now we're talking.
see what we got here? Come on. Ty Oh so smooth. Oh you better hit the brakes brother. Oh nice.
perfect. Put that spicy launch in it now dude. I got the with the spicy bu run tuneup in it and come on back. Oh yeah, we're coming straight back.
Well I forgot the camera. Dang it. it was a good lick though. it a really good run.
she's sticking Mr Sam on a RI oh what is he racing 1387 Sam at 102. All right. Oh, we got a Sam verse tie matchup right? here is time about send it. Yeah, hopefully we get like a high eight I'm guessing like a 890 that's my Sam said I don't got to do a burnout I Got four-wheel drive brother here we go Ty looking for his first 8C run ever.
Right here. we got Sam in the right lane. he is looking for a 1371 over there. come on baby, she's going.
She's going 921, 45 145 and 1435 out like Sam let out hey 92 dude that's weing Amazing! Now you got data. Maybe turn it up a little more. Oh yeah, all right, let's see it. let go fast.
Oh man, that felt good but I don't know if that was a name. All right. a I knew it I was worried that was too slow. 921 that's really fast though.
I mean we're doing good I just I kind of really wanted to see that freaking 89 or something. Oh what are we working with there? Let me just pull up a screenshot. it's between 5 and 5050. All right. Well, our final decision was 1 and 12 back so we got 1 and A2 degrees of timing of additional horsepower to try and go from a 854 to an 85. Z Math is math In it should do it. That's the math. The math is math it.
As we know in racing, it ain't a perfect world NOP But let's see and how Ruby likes the tree racing Yeah I Can't believe we have a 230 M Drive ahead of us too. It'll be fun after this run. right here. We're just going to be having fun.
Once he run this 8502 we're going to be like no watching Cars watching YouTube Oh wait I'm in an airplane I forgot. Oh yeah, so bad. Come on. come on, this is it.
Right here all the mar. Let's go Ruby This is what it counts Ruby This is what it counts baby. This is what it counts Ruby Down to the wire. Last run of day 4 here at South Jordan Motorsports Park 850 850 Go Baby James On his way to the finish line No No 848 No.
8:48 Good day tomorrow and we'll be all right. All right y ladies and gentlemen but that sucks. That sucks. Hopefully we might I don't know P get a did a little Shake shimmy thing off the starting line which is weird but I just drove it cuz can't risk not getting the last pass.
Oh baby, let's see if I can make one more just hey 48 with the zero. All right. Our boy is spiced up. his tune is spiced up.
Come on. Ranger Oh dang it dang it that ain't going to work. We got to keep that timing ramp in. timing ramp is working good.
Put her back it was on his way back up with the fuel they closed the lanes. We're done. No damn it that right there though. we could have done that one pass earlier.
It's crazy how tight this competition is. A 50 an 854 would have been amazing years ago. Yeah, yeah, now it's like we have to go the number so now you're behind by about a 100th yes, which anything can happen tomorrow. We still got to drive the longest one yet ahead of us and we're going back to the track at all.
Starter back turning it. Yep. OS where you got the 850 85 so we know what we got to do. Hopefully we got the same weather all right? Well turning to 854 we gave it a good effort.
Then over here we got our boy Ty with a PB yeah buddy. hey good day 9:21 I think we can get that eight tomorrow I told him I was like I got the slip and I was kind of bummed cuz it wasn't the eight you know. But then I was driving back and I'm like wait that's 310 faster that easy. do hardly anything to the two.
Got 230 M Drive ahead of you which the ranger seems to love the road0 the Rangers 230 270 Yeah, 270 Yeah we got some damn got some miles to put on. Yeah, you guys do all right. We might be riding Till Dawn Yeah well, it's up to you boys to make it there and we got a lot of work to do tomorrow, right? We got to run an eight and we got to run an 85 Yeah, 0 0 to the ninth number. All right, we'll make it happen. You have fun while we load up over here for our 6-hour drive. I Hope you get a leg cramp Real nice dude. Real tough break! Day four is officially over. We are leaving South Georgia and making the long haul all the way back to Orlando Ty and Zach loaded up me and James loaded up Sam You know he's good to go.
So we're about to hit the road and start hitting checkpoints. All right from Georgia to Orlando we're at our first checkpoint. So far so good. Everything's working out good Ranger has no problems Sam no problems Ruby Cruising right along what do you think Ty How's the truck running? good truck running really good.
It was getting a little hot so we went in and ring up the tune brought the engine temp straight back down. We're cruising 70 mph. 75 was awesome. You guys are so smart! Great idea! Thank you All right guys, we're in! Daytona Best place on the planet! We got Ruby out here Ranger and Sam we all made it this far.
This is our last checkpoint for our final drive to finish off SI week. Oh hey guys, how are you buddy? Really? that's all you got Sure Miss Florida ass buddy. There you go. All right.
Well, we got to make something happen today. Have you done any calculations on what we got to run? Ain't looking good? not looking good? It's just got to go 52 anything and it secures them in first? Yeah. What do you think on this tuneup today that 48 tuneup might be a little too much identical to where we're at with uh or it's on the path to being identical to where we're at in Georgia We're already above. Really? Yeah.
Okay, so you might leave it. we're already a couple hundred feet above this morning, but she was hot hot when you made that last run. So I might uh put that 1 or 1 and 1/2 minute back up top just to pull it back out yeah up top and then run it to see where we're at. All right, we got to give our best efforts old.
Ruby Dude she did a good job though this week. I mean all in all, she made the drive. It's been an easy week. Yeah, haven't had to fix anything.
Yeah. I mean really? besides a flat tire pretty much all you guys had go wrong is getting rusty. Yeah, A got to use it. Oh yeah, true.
Is it time for a twostep? Check? Twep check Two Step check It's your two step check. Nice nice final day of sick week here at Orlando Speed World We'll be looking for that 8.50 z pass to finish off the week. Woo baby! There we go. Let that baby sing for a minute.
856 at 156 mph. 857 is not what we want. No. and the guy in front just went dead on with a nine.
So 0% chance we get First place, but we got a lock down. second. we got a lock down. second.
Third place. Just went a 51. Oh man, really, does that put him in front of us with our 57. Worried about him? yet it probably does well.
57 Good starting point. We're going to refuel. We'll get that 51 or50. So where did it slow down? It was slow all the way down. Went 131 instead of 128 12 Is that difference in the air we were talking about? That was the same tune? Yeah! I Went at 51 instead of a 45. So that's a tune that went a 848 last night. That's how much the air can change it for you. Yeah, so I guess we just found out second place is locked in y so we're just running for fun.
Yeah I think I'm going to do a one two. You know? add one pound to the Le two out the back and see if. okay A little one hit a little one two H a little one two. You should just go around a 790.
That's easy. I'll just put it a 26 lb a 10. Do it. Just run a 790.
Yeah. Do it. run a 790 or 750. We got to be the only ones who win a seven in the 850 class.
Ruby Baby Seven might as well. We got second place SEC cure. So we're going to see what this baby will do. There we go.
Man lost straight SLE on that RI that's going to do it. 6 Week 2024 We took R out to bar and secured Us in second place. finish after having a strong start to the week. can't ask for much more than that dude.
where's the car I Left her at the trailer. What do you mean? uh, we see that time when it lost the crank signal on the sensor said yeah, we're done not doing that again. So I crank it. just say sink doesn't doesn't read RP without RPM it won't fire.
Well that sucks. but at least we locked in second. That's yeah, we locked there. So I mean it ain't it ain't First, we're first losers.
but it's okay because we finished 3 weeks ago. we pulled the car out, the par, rebuilt the whole thing Zach rewired the whole thing. We came out here and uh, started the week strong, ran perfect, ran on Pace all week, had no issues. we had what one caliber bolt back out? Yeah, nothing.
That was it. Other than that, Rook's running strong. We had a little sensor issue but that's okay. Uh, we can get that fixed.
Cheap, easy thing. but other than that I mean it's it's a dialed in rig. We were gifted with great weather and testing and the beginning of the week and then we kind of lost Pace on the weather went away from us so we definitely just got to do a little bit more testing to get her really dialed in. Fill that laptop full of from cold to hot to no good tracks, a good track tuneups for that 850 and just dominate next one.
But we ain't done Ruby Ain't done. We're going to come dominate that 850 class. All right. We got the danger Ranger out here.
First pass of the day. Last day of sick week, they got the 920 tune up INE but he's going to lift early and get his 10c slip to turn it in. complete the week and then maybe we'll turn it up. All right.
All right. on the break 1036 that's pretty dang solid. Now turn it up Rning eight. That was fun.
We's see what that is. felt good, it hooked, and now we know it's going to hook. That was the big thing. We want to go fast on this next pass, so we got to make sure it's going to hook. as long as it hooks. Uh I think we can get an eight? We're going to just pile it in, not worry about the 60t, not worry about the 330 and just try to get after it on the uh. a little bit into the short track but more towards the end. All right.
Sam So day one here: Sam Went a 1371 got see if we can't better that a little bit there. he goes. 1391 in the heat. 100 mph.
All right. this thing sticks going. Oh H the Boost cut a little bit dang dang man s likeing the tires a little bit. Hit the Boost cut.
well it's still together. it's still together. He made it. He finished.
still together he finished. that's a big Big W We'll get that eight bra in. that's right back. make few Justice get that eight bra.
it'll be easy. Couple changes, well too much spice there Bud Dang it dude. Hey, we'll get it back in braon. All right.
Yeah, we got some suspension stuff we got. We going have to figure out a couple of things. Make it happen all right. Hey you guys finished sick week.
Great job Valiant Effort all right guys Ruby got second mullet. didn't make it the bush plane got first in its class. the other competitors didn't even show up, they so scared. But all in all a successful sick week 2024.
Obviously we would have liked to go home with some trophies, some first place trophies. but um, we have to give another shot later this year at Six Summer. Thanks to everyone who tuned in to the Freedom Plus live stream A blast! but that's it for now. Thanks for watching new for Dale Wol Freaking See you later.
Is that guy Tye from Cali
That ranger is saucy
He sure knows how to promote doesn't he?
Cleetus, debt relief companies are a scam that ruins your credit in the process
I have to say, cleetus on the sidelines is sad, but doesnt reduce the quality of the content one bit! Cleetus as team leader is really interesting to watch… sad Mullet isnt in the race but still 10000000000% sure that the content is golden. Its awesome to see how the team has grown and the cars are just that much better
Ruby runs a 8.58. You add 1 degree and run a 8.54. Adding 1 more degree should have got the 8.50
Love CUB content!
Just arrived home from hospital, my son, Jacob had a serious car accident and miraculously survived. We please want everyone to be safe on our roads, and rip under controlled conditions, with safety gear. I really want all you blokes here with us, enjoying Cleeter, and his amazing crew for as long as possible. Love to all my brothers.❤️🇦🇺🇺🇸🦅
You gotta give Ruby a kill mode for the big end if launch is sub-par and feel it out
Was hoping for a reaction of Kevin's save.
Ruby is one tough bitch. She loves to destroy crank sensors and squeal belts. 😂
Now time to get ruby into the 6s , to see that side bi side pass of mcflurry vs ruby in the 6 both cars !!! Lets goooo
Hope you guys enjoyed the sick week vids and the FRDM+ live stream. Can't wait to do more Race Week's this summer… with a spare transmission of course haha.
