For many fans, racing is looked at as a competitive sport with drivers who try to keep it clean, but this weekend, keeping it clean will be less than prevalent with Cleetus McFarland's 2023 Black Rifle Coffee Company 2.4 Hours of Le Mullets at his Freedom Factory in Bradenton, Florida.

The 2.4 Hours of Le Mullets, featuring a mix of on- and off-road racing legends, YouTube personalities and others, is a 2-hour and 40-minute event where two-person teams battle on the Freedom Factory short track to contest for the Le Mullets victory.

The event weekend will cap off on Saturday with the Cleetus and Cars Burnout event, where Cleetus and crew will be doing burnouts on the pad at the Freedom Factory, but all eyes will be on Friday night’s spectacle.

Over the years, the event has seen many big names come out, including NASCAR regulars Alex Bowman and Kurt Busch (who actually won the event a few years ago), and this year's event is no different as the field is looking to be stacked.

Some of the notable names and tandems on the grid includes Cleetus himself and Travis Pastrana, one of the eye-catching groupings who will be together Friday night.

Other tandems include NASCAR Xfinity driver, Hailie and Brian Deegan, Ronnie Renner and Jeremy McGrath, who both have made their name in Motorcross, NHRA regular Alex Laughlin and Blake Wilkey, and even Cowboy Cerrone, who has transitioned from the UFC Octagon to racing since his retirement, teaming up with pro stunt man Jim York.

The field will also see many YouTube influencers and Cleetus' crew for the event, creating what is an unpredictable and wild showdown for drivers in the equally-prepared Crown Vics.

Both the field and predictions for the race's outcome are wide-open, due in part to the fun that this event will bring for everyone.

For all, this event is more about the spectacle than anything and Cleetus McFarland and his group of entries on the grid should make for some physical and smashing racing for Friday night.
