Brock Heger is a busy man. Between winning the San Felipe 250 and the Mint 400 earlier this year, not to mention a full race schedule running through the duration of 2026, he's managing to get his hands on other ways to compete when not behind the wheel of a RZR. Less conventional ways, at that, with his latest entrance being in YouTuber Cleetus McFarland's Freedom 500 race in Florida.

For those not in the know, Cleetus' real name is Garrett Mitchell, and he's one of the predominant automotive YouTubers. His content mixes drag racing with automotive culture and a hint of Jackass-esque shenanigans, all in the sake of having a good time with anything bearing a motor or engine.
A few years ago Cleetus bought a decommissioned racing facility in Bradenton, Florida and started hosting celebrity-filled events on the site's oval track. The crown jewel is the Freedom 500, a 100-lap race in which YouTubers, celebrities, racing drivers, and friends all get behind the wheel of already-beat-up Ford Crown VIctoria "race cars" and do battle to see who can come out on top.
Heger didn't quite have the success he's used to in his RZRs, finishing the race 15th out of 27 runners. Notable drivers who beat him are Brian Deegan (who won the event), Travis Pastrana (finishing third), Kenny Wallace (ex-NASCAR driver), Bobby Earnhardt (yes, of that Earnhardt family), and Cleetus himself. There's countless variables in a Crown Vic race, so maybe if offered another outing Heger will finish in a position he has become more used to.
