Burnout with NO spare tire is always an excellent idea. Nope. It’s fine.
rolmao . Where would you put that spare ? lol
Yup... nope.
I wonder what Jessica really thinks about burnouts? Maybe a girl would think, me and the boys are going to have to do a lot of walking when we are stranded without a spare.
When you have posi, one spare still doesnt help
MISS BETTY WHITE spoke to me during that burn out, she said, I'LL NEVER FORGIVE HIM FOR THIS....
"we gotta work together to keep these cars on the road" I felt that, nice words!
The statement is almost soul rattling!
They just don't mak'em like that anymore...
Agreed, great message.
Thing was so smooth you couldn't hardly tell it was running from inside 😂
It was respectable
I was waiting for you to pull up with the Lemans
I feel like even though your numbers were slow they were respectable! Lincoln guy said soon as I saw you power brake I knew I was in trouble 😂 you left the man like he was standing still!
Thought I noticed your car in the Background at the gas station.
@@letgobrandon7605 We started the burnouts that day
I absolutely love the fact that you took Betty down the strip, and won! You'd have done better with an empty trunk. Never underestimate that giant 472. When I was a kid I drag raced in my 69 Sedan Deville many times, and won most of the time, made a lot of people mad, especially when they were making fun of my big old boat just before I blew their doors off. I learned very early I could sit on the starting line roasting my tires off, or get her moving, then bury the gas pedal in the floorboard, meanwhile the competition was still smoking their tires, and I was already half way down the track. Good times. One of my friends recently pulled the 472 and turbo 400 out of the caddy he inherited from his mom, rebuilt the engine and put it in his Chevy C-10 short bed pickup. It's sweet.
Regardless of the time, that was the most luxurious quarter mile run I’ve ever seen 🤣🤣🤣
Nothin feelin better than flyin down a track or two whilst relaxing on yer couch...🤣🤣🤣🤣
A feller had a 69 Caddy coupe deville back in the day.. And boy oh boy could she drink the onions...
Had a 472 with a 4 barrel Holly highrise carb.. Oh yeah, she was a drinker I tell ya...
Neck breakingly comfortable too
@@richardbaumgart2454 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Tesla swapped caddy...
Now that would be something to see..
@@SaltyNationalistsince the steering wheel is connected to the system, it’ll be a caddy with a Tesla steering wheel
@@IntelliPocalypse 😂😂
Six guys: bouncing the back end of Betty to get the tyres spinning.
Derek: The air shocks broke again somehow.
So Derek doesn’t stop, then feeds in the onions and sends it to the moon.. yep, that’s Derek.
One guy there came within an inch of losing some fingers. 😳
Hahah I laughed so hard watching people bouncing and pulling on Betty, awesome Derek!!
Was the guy at the back of Betty Ike from cars and cameras?
@@ogt92fromthe1step9 Yes, and John was beside him sorta on the left rear of the car.
These are some of my favorite episodes of VGG, seeing real people, less editing and more family time is what it's all about.
I definitely agree with you
Your boys will be sharing these memories with your grand kids 40yrs from now. Good stuff Derek.... thanks for sharing this with all of us!
First place in “previously in a swamp” class😂😂
This wins the comment section.
@@justinarnold6044 I know, right?
Being a disabled gearhead and unable to get out much, I can't tell you how much I appreciate tagging along via video with you and the family. It's the next best thing to being there. TY.
I'm with you brother between my wheelchair and the recliner this is the most fun I've had sitting down. Probably not
Call us the Gimpy Boys..
I refuse to get my disabled status in Canada (our government screws us 4 ways from Sunday). The company I work for, is really good at recognizing my disability, and working with in my confines.
I'm a 4 Wheeler (or was). I dont get out much anymore, I own a 2003 Chevy Tracker LT 4x4.. If I do go out I play it safe these days.. cause *when* I get stuck now, I am screwed..
Well, I'm a blind gearhead with a little bit of vision left. Cant see to drive em', but man I love cars. I guess I'm also along for the ride. Yee haa!
I'm a crip who misses the old car stuff too.
@@KrazyMitchAdventures I hear you. I used to drive tractor trailers 44 years. Lost my right leg so I had no choice but to apply for disability. I live in the states.
i must say, watching you from london england. its so nice to see how you get these old cars and bring them back from the grave. its made me start to do the same over here in the uk. you and your family are so nice. keep up the good work hope to see you all in the uk one day maybe recover an old english car.
16.84 in a bone stock Caddy weighing in at @ 4700 lbs. I’m impressed, I was thinking somewhere around 18 or so would have been good. That was a solid run Derek. And that Lincoln sure was purty too. 2 boulevard cruisers having at it. Looks like you and the family are having a ball 👍👍
I never expected it to run 16s.
I'mpressed with Betty White's run! Also the 14.whatever mpg!
But yeah, that Lincoln was GORGEOUS!
With a blown out muffler and a trunk full of "doo dads" and "whatnots", I figured about 18 seconds. Nope. Betty scoots pretty good. I'll be dipped!
"16.84 in a bone stock Caddy weighing in at @ 4700 lbs." That was pulled out of a swamp!!!
I guarantee it weighed more than 5,000lbs on that run.
Ole Betty said, "there might be snow on the roof, but there's still a fire in the furnace!" ;-)
Betty is really treating you right! You have to show that girl some serious love when you get home. Body work, paint, new top, and oh ya, fix the air shocks! The old girl deserves it! Lol
Awesome deboss was with yall its hilarious you can hear rich laugh in most of the clips... keep up the great work you and your family are awesome!!!!!
I smile everytime i watch Derrick and the VGG clips .Never stop being you Derrick ,its so refreshing to see one of us out there.
A guy could get used to these daily vidjas, and I ain't kiddin....
Agreed
@@ChicanoOne760 hope so!
Daily
Me too but the poor guy probably ain’t sleeping lol
@@ChicanoOne760 Really?
Back me up feller's and fellet's, this is the best content on the tubes am i right?
Bestest. Makes a fella see it first
It's fine. Probably not.
Yesssss
Aside from porn hub I have to agree with you 🤘🤘🤘
When a guy sees a VGG video, he puts it on right now!
Loved this video. Betty running a16:84, damn. That Lincoln was slick as hell. This is what Power Tour is all about, hanging out with other car people and having a blast with your family and friends.
Derek's giggle when you learned Betty turned in a 1/4 mile time of 16.8 was priceless! LOVE these videos!
im tryin a figure out how a guy goes on a road trip with the fam, films , edits, and gets the vid out faster then I can view them. sensational
While I do love ol Betty,
Guy’s gotta give mad props to my man in that lovely Lincoln Lemonade!
That was one beautiful Lincoln
Good to see you givin Bettty some onions, good ol Detroit power, Love it!
Thanks to you all for sharing 👍
Awesome run, loving ❤😍♥the '70 Cadillac great tour!!! Would love 💘to see her with the fender skirts cause she deserves them and makes her so perty, thanks for sharing and as always "Howdy from Texas "!!
A Feller is gettin darn near spoiled with all this daily content…thought I’D just Bleep Bloop down here to say Thanks for what you do for the fans and the car community. Bless you and yours.
Gotta say, out of all the old rigs you've brought back from the dead.. ole Betty is by far my favourite
Man that old lady is just straight up class
Mine's gotta be the LeSabre, she's just so darn clean
Yeah, I hope he keeps it,at least for a few years.classic.
No Dought
@@saigawesnovember Yep,, me too. She can be sooo nice with just a tad a body and top fix'n she can dance with the best of 'em out there.
Hey guys, thanks for taking us along on this awesome adventure-lator! I am excited for day 4!! A guy can really feel like he's on the trip with you all with this series! So thank you again!
Love the reaction at the time for the run..... an honest chuckle if there ever was one. Great vid as usual Derek.
So much for the “Hotrod Lincoln”, Betty held her own, but in the end it’s all in fun. It’s not every day a person gets to see a boat race on a drag strip.
All of a
Sudden in a wink of an eye
A Cadillac sedan passed us by.
I said, "Boys,
That's a mark for me!"
By then the taillight was all you could see
Lemonade only has the small 430...but my Black Jack has the 460. He would shred Betty White to bits. Honor has to be restored! lol
Cadillac was always a pretty fast car for what it was. Betty even manages to pass a few gas stations.
😂🤣😂🤣👍
Lemonade was pretty rad tho!!! Dude was having a good ol time!
Just when you think you’ve seen everything go down the track at Lucas Oil during test and tune nights. A 70s Caddy with no shocks, full trunk, and a 60s Lincoln go head to head during power tour 😂 Bring Betty back in town for SCT.
it's so awesome that you and your family can share this journey you're on together. one of the best channels on youtube no question. keep er rippin bud
I agree with all theses guys: Thanks for the frequent uploads taking us along. Feel like we're with you. Also: every video with Betty makes me wonder how some fool could leave her in a field? She's a gem!!
Probably died
I agree , she is a big beautiful girl that runs great and gets decent gas millage , have to be an idiot to abandon car like that .
Only wish I was . Looks like a heck of a lot of fun
Imagine the condition on her when she was first parked all those years ago, guess she was mint…
@@jamesrichards7644 I know It would be .Even if I were a Ford guy .lol
The boys can look back on this in a decade or two, and reminisce on just one of many epic times in their lives.
Having it documented in film and sharing these times with us, is why this channel has excelled.
Thank you Derrick and family, for letting us ride along!
You're bringing back memories of driving across Canada every summer in a Cadillac Deville with my Mom and Dad when I was a kid....thank you :)
Hey Derek, loving the Hot Rod Power Tour, thanks so much for taking us all along, cheers
When the drag race started I was able to go get a cold snack and use the restroom but still make it back to view the finish. LOL
Waiting for the "Not-Rod / No Power Tour". You have to tow your rig to 5 different sites and hit junkyards on the way to pick parts to get it running.
i'm in
For me thats at least once a week in order to get to work.
Great video keepem commin love how these old cars can come back to life and still be used for fun and family
Awesome!!! ole' Betty white really impressed me. That burnout was epic!
Derek, I love your channel. You’re a hell of a mechanic, got a great sense of humor, a good family man, and just plain fun to watch. Keep the videos coming!
uuuu uuuu u uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuui
Uouuuu
Uouuuuo
Iouiuui
Ihouuu
Testament to the greatness of what Cadillac/GM was in the 60's. This Deville was asleep for the last 50 years and now is being beaten to within an inch of its life and driven all over half the country and still isn't breaking down. I don't know if a 21 Caddy would stand up to this level of abuse without a trip to the dealer for some warranty work.
In 51 years, if the computer is still working in a 2021, you might have a chance.. but by then, everything about that car will be forced obsolete.
Editing and time lapse on point brother. Nice work behind the scenes. Solid. Yes sir!
Fabulous stuff, enjoyed these videos, just love how harmonious your family is 😊
Thank you for the frequent uploads. Feels like we're along for the ride.
Along for the ride, I agree, thanks. BTW, can we stop at a Stuckey's? I'm hungry for some of those pecan turtles they sell..
Man that’s just amazing. That car was sent out to the pasture (swamp) years ago and just look at her now. I swear I could see that car smiling as it was going down the track.
Is it just me or is everyone else logging in every couple of hours to see if Derek and Jessica have uploaded the latest video ?
You are the Bob Ross of the automotive world. Puts a smile on my face! 👍👍Love your videos!!
Seeing that Cadillac dragging tail down the drag was freaking hilarious!!! Thanks!
I love the fact that you are teaching people the value of fixing what you have instead of throwing it away. Too many of us just throw it in the trash instead of valuing what we have and making it last. I do the same thing with computers, just not as talented and humorous as you do. Thank you so much!!!
Great job with the drag race! I thought the gentleman with the Lincoln was a great meet. I loved the way you both handled the results. Kudos to both of you. I can't say enough positive about seeing so much old iron on the road. I think it was early 80's when they started crushing so many old iron cars for supposedly the environment. This whole tour is fantastic and so many of the youtubers I follow are a part of it. I wish it was closer to me (Florida). Thank you so much for sharing the tour with us that can't be there in person.
Always a joy to see a couple of old boats trying to keep up with the hot rods. Great job!
Summer sausage sammich and VGG for lunch break. Perfect!
I love summer sausage sammies, going after work to get me a roll, thanks for the reminder
It was so awesome meeting you! Thanks so much!
Derek - Great run & ET! Now you can say "I was out with this fast woman one weekend in August, my Wife found out but didn't even care, and in fact took care of the kids plus all the important stuff!! Think I'll do same thing next year!!!" Another date with Betty White!!!! Woo Hoo!!!!!
That was fun to watch old Betty doing her thing,I knew you could take him by your experience brother, I love your channel Derek and God bless you and your awesome family,love you in Christ!
This tour gets better every day Derek, thank you so much for sharing with us
At 12:51, I lost it. My wife came outside to see what I was laughing at and cheering about. I absolutely LOVE your series on Betty White!
Literally nothing happened at 12.51
@Ross Bright
the drag race happened at 12:51, and it was hilarious!
This is what I thought of seeing Betty White on the drag strip....
ua-cam.com/video/akqKsOQ10OQ/v-deo.html
Betty was pointed up so high @ 12:51 I was just waiting for Derek to yell rotate & see her take off & clear the runway!
I absolutely love Betty such a great car and loving this series
I do as well. I wonder if the AC works in the car?
All those 69, 70, 71 Caddies were some of the best ones! Such beautiful styling. GIGANTIC boats but somehow they looked great.
@@mikesamra9126 IIRC Yes and no. Works but some broken valvelator. Only works towards the floor.
Really looking forward to every day with you guys. Thanks for sharing. God bless yall
How bad does a guy's life have to be to give this family a thumbs down???? Love the content guys!
I'm with you on that comment, their are just some real haters out in this world of ours, why can't everyone just be happy for them. They are sharing there whole experience with us. You have a Blessed day.
His sausage finger probably slipped trying to hit the like button. Or some communist who hates America.
Hater's will always find a reason to hate on someone.
a lot of that is the algorithm I believe, I think it helps with the progression of the video of getting it out there, I think anyways but there still could be some "Haters" in the mix as well
@@Canadiancarguy1987 is correct. Bet this gets recommended to non car folks.
That's actually pretty incredible considering the thing was sitting in the goddamn swamp
And also that it weighs about 2-1/2 tons. Literally I think the curb weight of a 70 Caddy DeVille was 4690 lbs.
@@papabones6307 but thats the same curb weight as my old ford truck, but with an extra 150 cubes and two more cylinders
it's a real sweet car to be honest and I think it suits him well
@@papabones6307 That is literally only a couple hundred pounds heavier than a 2020 Challenger. Modern cars are so much waste.
That drag race spoke to my heart... Thanks for resurrecting that beautiful beast!!
What a great family trip. Your boys will remember these days for life.
Old lady: “you’re bad to the bone
Derek: “oh yeah”
Get it Betty white!!! Thanks to u and ur fam for bringing us with y’all. One of these days I will be in a position that I csn do these sorts of things!
Hoping everyone is safe and sound, looking forward to day 4! Looks like you’re all having a wonderful time 😀
I for one love what you're doing here. Please keep it coming !
Lol great to see her good on the track. You truly blessed to have a wife that believes in your sickness of cars, love your channel thank you for putting it out there.
3:30 into the vid, there's Ike from cars and cameras! Glad to see Isaac made it to power tour!
I love that you took the time and brought a load of hot wheels for the little humans
Your kids are soaking all that up learning em as you go and watching pops drag race the car they are travelling in .....
The award to the most awesome mom and pops is yours
You got some lucky kids
Bless ya me ducks for sharing your adventures
Another mile stone for Betty White . A cruiser and a race car all in one
It is amazing that you can always find a Dollar General in the middle of no where!
I read somewhere it's actually their business strategy to put them away from other retail outlets.
I'll guess 16~17 seconds. Go Betty go! Loving the updates; enjoying your vacation vicariously through the videos!
Mine is 16.2 but I may be optimistic
I guessed sebemeen seconds too.
Hehehe, too low 18's to 20's
@@Pico2199 I thought he said in the video it was 16.8 seconds?
@@yungster3blue no, just a guess
Absolutely love the Power Tour updates!!!!! Awesome to see Betty White run down the 1/4 mile she did surprisingly well for a highway geared sled with a trunk full of stuff that probably weighed more than Rosie Odonell, LOL. I hope your family enjoyed the power tour!!!
When Derek got his slip and read 16.8, I swear that's the first time I have seen him (really, truly) actually laugh. 😳 I was dying. Thank you and your family for the content! Thank you Mrs Betty White for the awesome burnout!
I was hoping to see your wife's reaction. This is alot of fun. I honestly laughed out loud a few times, good stuff. Thanks.
Nice to see Jessica's "goin' to town rig" performing well.
Spotted the cars and cameras boys in their too! The mechanic family on UA-cam is awesome!
Just a thanks! Couldn’t make it out to Lucas Oil on Wed, but appreciate the props to Innyanapolis. The channel is just rockin, really enjoyin the ride!
Thanks for all the vids fella! All of us wishing we could be on the tour are having fun living vicariously through you and the fam! All I’m waiting for is “Holiday Road” to pop up as the soundtrack to one of the highway montages😂
Thank you for taking the back roads, God bless those farmers all that beautiful corn n crops..pray it goes to market safe.
I enjoy looking at the wheels. There's so much variety and artistic design.
I guess I missed it when you power-braked it before the race, great video guys, thanks for bringing us along.
The ole Q-Jet actually jetted a little down the ole strip! That made me smile!
Just wanted to thank you for the daily content. I'm sure its a bit of work with editing every day to get it out but we appreciate it tons!
Thank you for bringing us along for the ride!
Love this. Awesome that you are sharing, thank you.
Saw the notification, yep, instantly clicked on it. Hope you all are enjoying power tour!
I've been watching You Tube for years. This is the best content I've seen in a while.
Thank You Derek! Have fun.
Same here. Probably so enjoyable as Derek has awesome content and he doesn't push merch like a lot of other channels. Very down to earth real person, hope to meet him and his family one day.
man this looks fun. this has got me really motivated to get my '56 Plymouth going and take a road trip with the family!
Unbelievable how far this car has come since the revival. Never thought it would go that fast on the 1/4 mile, then I remembered it's a 1970's car. No Check Engine Light and no sensors to speak of, and no limp mode, but what they did have was Heart. These machines were built to run, and nothing else got in the way of that. Thanks for the videos. very cool... Cheerz
It didn't surprise me that you won against the Lincoln. I was surprised though by how much! WOW! The 1970 was one of the fastest Cadillacs made before the North Star. 0-60 in 7.8 seconds was considered VERY good in 1970. It still is.
7.8 seconds 0-60 is Very impressive for a Nimitz Class aircraft carrier 😂
I've owned both. Well actually 2 472 Caddys and 1 500. And also a 430 Lincoln. Any of the Caddys would smoke the Lincoln. That 430 was pathetic even after dumping $5k into it. You should see what an Edlebrock intake and 750 cfm carb will do to those Caddys...holy smoke they wake up.
That Lincoln was pretty slick! I'd love to tour that thing around the country.
Thanks for all the work getting these out for us, amidst all the other shenanigans!
Those huge wheels are a bit unnecessary.
@@mexicanspec meh.
Easily addressed. In the big picture, the car is sweet... although I'm not entirely sold on the color.
@@mattmanyam I personally love light yellow.
That was a sweet Lincoln
@@mexicanspec I didn't "hate" it... Just not particularly my style.
Love your work Derek you've been quiet for a couple of days is everything ok mate the way you include us all and especially the way you explain everything is awesome I feel like I am a part of it with you blind garage approved five stars
16.360. Really enjoying this because I work 2nd and nobody is awake when I get home. I really appreciate the hard work y'all are putting in.
Literally laughing out loud watching that "drag race" 😂😂
I’ve really enjoyed these videos with you all on the power tour. Thank you all for sharing them each day much appreciated 👍😎✌️old Betty white will run a 21
Being born and raised around Indy and living now in Rural WI it never occurred to me until I left how fortunate I was living so close to the track and all the events it hosts.
You are making the spirit of that car very happy.
This is one of my favorite cars you’ve done. I hope you keep going with Betty White and keep using her.
