When he stops his son from walking away to remind him he loves him did it for me. Don't be afraid to tell your kids you love them fellas
Multiple times a day forever
I love that Derek just gave him the secret sign and Bradley replied out loud.
I lost my Dad to cancer 22 years ago. As I said above... sumthin in me peepers.
Life’s too short not to tell your kids how much you love them
always
In next week’s episode, Derek picks up a totalled pacer from Florida and try to it drive 600 miles home.😂😂 Glad everyone is safe. Thanks again for taking us on your journey.
That’s funny lol funny.
Thank for taking us on the "stop" too. 🙃 Glad that only the car was bent.
We can dream.. an LS swapped Pacer. I'm swooning.
You sir are a humble role model of a man. Hard working, funny, kind hearted man that has figured out a way to take advantage of this life and how to be a good father. Thank you sir, I really enjoy ur content! You deserve a few wobble pops!
I appreciate that
@@ViceGripGarage Not to mention you ran an incredible FF500! 2nd place almost wire to wire! Then you were intentionally pitted which made me so mad! I'm still mad about it! It's very possible that you would have won that race. I'd say you deserve $50K for the race (2nd place in my world). I'll buy some merch and Cleeter will make up the difference. Props to JH on the win though. You are the best personality in that whole group of racers and UA-camrs! Keep on doing it right and we'll keep supporting!
Derek, please do anything you find fun and would enjoy. We fans get a kick out of anything you do. Don't listen to the naysayers, we enjoy things because you have fun and enjoy them too. You and your family are amazing and thank you letting us ride along with you.
DEREK THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART! From a disabled vet of the Army Rangers. You are of a caliber of "human" that made my time in the Army worth every ache and pain I endure. THANK YOU.
Thankyou for your service Charles
Ty for all you've done
Thank you Charles!
Thank you for your service.
Thank you for your service sir 👍👍
I was at the Freedom500, I was happy to meet you for a second to shake your hand. My family and I were right in the front row at the start of the back straight. We were all rooting for you. And then Tanner spun you out and I was shocked. Didn't he do the same thing three years ago to the leader of the 500? You said it yourself, you're a courteous guy, and your racing showed that. You had so many opportunities to take JH out, but that's not your style, you want to beat him, not cheat him. It even rhymes! :D
33 spun more than just Derek out. he was way too aggressive near the end. Reminded me of Kevin a couple of years ago.
I actually thought it was Kevin at first. That’s a so called professional driver that can’t handle getting out ran by a couple average guys with UA-cam channels for ya..
@@lanejohnson7656 pro drivers are actually often the most aggressive, and not in a good way. not always of course.
Derek is one of the nicest guys out there. 2nd should have been his. His driving speaks for itself, doesn't need nasty tactics like Tanner used.
Tanner forever lost a fan lol
Mate, you deserved 2nd place. I watched you in JH's video and you were driving like a boss. So gutted to see Tanner spin you out like that.
The Morgan Freeman bit was hilarious, glad everyone is ok. A little dent puller, and buffer, and if you squint it's mint.
The narration on just before the wreak. Omg that was awsome. The guy who thought of that. That was comedy gold
Glad you enjoyed!
Was it Morgan Freeman that narrated?? Sounded just like him. 😀
@@ernsthaaland3624 AI is crazy huh
@@ernsthaaland3624 check the video description...
@@doctorb.5893Not everything is AI ffs. Check the descrption
VGG on a Thursday? Did a feller have too many wobble pops last night?!
Wetting the back neck right now watching this special early edition! Cold Snacks for the win!
Maybe he didn't have enough!!!
Was thinking the same. What a surprise.
I thought I lost a day or 2. (Didn't know it was Thursday when I saw the video pop, but didn't think I'd made it to Friday either)
When he has a race or an event he always puts out a extra video
And because nobody was hurt.. Can we please talk about how brilliant the Morgan Freeman part was?! 😄
Got to meet a fellah in person and he even put some ink on a hat for my daughter. Hell of a guy, hell of a racer. Thanks for being at the freedom500 Derek, over 6000 kms round trip was worth it.
Shout out to Oh Oh O’Rilleys for that super sick rap. This car looks best outta all the cars. This was a great idea for them to come on board with the rap and show an even stronger sponsor ship with you in this race. I know they’re your people already but his shows their character of the fun in this hobby we all love.
Great job with second place for so long. You was right there and your do to win one for us soon brother and I’ll be here yelling and supporting each time. Thank you for the hard work and effort from you and all the support your family gives you so you can entertain us.
This has got to be a bot. Nobody shills this hard for an auto parts store.
@@TKing2724 - A bot could spell "wrap". 😁
@TKing2724 I thought it was pretty cool of them
@@josiahjones5293 Okay, this is a completely normal response. Contrast your praise with how the original comment praised them.
Now, I want to see Dereck do an O'Reilly's Rap. 🤣
I watched the whole thing live man. You ran just an awesome race. So close bud.
Thanks!
Love how Derek is a legit country boy racer. So good at driving with no "professional experience " . Just a farm boy who Can keep up with world class drivers!
Your love and appreciation for our country, its peace keepers, veterans, and first responders is second to none. We can’t thank those people enough for the sacrifices they’ve made and are making.
‘Thank you guys for putting up with me’?? Really??? We love this!! Thanks for taking us along and humbly sharing an experience most of us can only dream of! You deserve this good time and I appreciate being brought along in the passenger seat!
Screw Tanner. Alway was a turd.
Thanks Derek! Hope you had fun!
45:14 Morgan Freeman: "He didn't bargain on it being slicker than goose poop on a pump handle." 🤣
Thank you so much for your representation for veterans and first responders. As a retired police officer and disabled veteran, it means everything to me. I feel like there aren't enough people out there like that anymore.
...LOVE the Morgan Freeman bit ! At first I thought it was going to be a Dukes Of hazard moment but then it was better!
To me it sounded like a Cajun Morgan Freeman - but it was TRULY inspired! This is why me and mine LOVE VGG and Derek and his family!
It was very reminiscent of one of those "Them Dukes boys.." rambles in a weird way.
Caught me completely off guard.
But Morgan Freeman's voice sent it all the way home in a very fitting way.
Even softened the crunch I realized was coming up a bit.
Hey, Derek.This is Andrew.This is the one you said hi to personally.I want to say thank you and take care.
Glad everyone was ok- and whoever did the Morgan Freeman voiceover was BRILLIANT!!!
Thank you for supporting us troops Derek!
Thank you VGG. Made my day!
Glad to hear it!
Even though we blew up farm use, it was an honor to end up in your video. It’s surprising a 500 pick and pull engine lasted that long, with some name brand bolt ons and a spicy KSR tune considering we ran it at Bristol and last November there at the ff. hope to be ready for the event in Ct. also it was more like 8 quarts of oil. 😂
Dang that was a raging smoke cloud though!!!🤘
I could see Matt and Derek doing collabs. A lot of family values highlighted on their channels. This is soooo cool!
Tanner should not be invited back. That was dirty as hell, completely uncalled for and frankly dangerous. You’re awesome Derek!
I myself was wondering why he was even there.
very dangerous manuver by Tanner, you could have gone into the but end of that concrete barrier! So glad you were not hurt!
@@emmanuelwilson2780 exactly what I was thinking. Of course Derek is classy as always and didn’t call him out or retaliate. I’m all for the whole “rubbin is racing” deal but blatantly wrecking someone at the end of the race is just wrong
i wonder what the rules are.
you can see he did the bump that caused derek to start sliding, and like okay that happens. but then during the slide you can see tanner let off the brake to bump him into spinning out completely 🤔
Are all the black flags at the cleaners ?
Man, what a great event, didn't know I'd make it into a video. Glad I wore my going to town shirt.
Definitely worth the 2,000+ mile roadtrip! It was great meeting you and Jessica!
That engine revving while you’re trying to talk was cracking me up.
Vroom* Moses sandals..
Vroom* I think it’s running..
Vroom* He’s gunna run outta gas!
Hell, yeah, there was an xj
Hey Derek thanks for the love and including the jeepster on you channel. I hope to have the jeep rebuilt for Connecticut. Not to bad for not having a power adder.
The Morgan Freeman bit Slicker than Goose Poop on a pump handle got me rolling 😂😂😂😂
You don't give yourself enough credit brother, being humble is a good thing but,your the man my friend and everyone knows it
You won second. Bs pit manouver.
Thank you for coming back to pit wall for the picture even though you were busy. Made my day and trip.
I love how you told your kid you love him before going out on track.
My 5yr son and I were cheering you on, we can't wait to see you win one of these. I know you have the talent to do it!
It was so epic to finally get to watch you race and get to try and meet ya. Missed ya by just seconds on Saturday 😢😢. But was epic to be able to get Jess to sign Savannahs hat. Hope you guys like the lanyards and the tiny tools. Thought you had the win by the way. Bad luck best race of our lifetime. !!!
13:38 in got me good. I wonder how many times Papa Derek strapped Bradley in to a go cart or something. And now it's Bradley's turn. I was already just a little misty. Then "love you too. Good luck." And I think I got something in my eyes, because they keep leaking. That is exactly what being a papa is about. Well done Derek. Nice job Bradley. Thanks for taking care of your dad.
13:45 It's these little moments with his family that make us love Derek so much! He deserves every ounce of his success!
Derek you deserve every bit of the attention you've been getting. Genuine hard working skilled gentleman. Hats off to you and the family.
At 12:13 the radio shorts out. Glad he didn't have a fire. You see him even fan the burnt smell after it happens.
You can actually see the spark on the right side of the radio! 😂
Nah. That was probably just a capacitor letting go.
@@dewmills1499 Musta been a Spark-o-matic!😆
Getting to chill with heavy D in his black hawk you are living the high life my friend
The Morgan Freeman voice over pause @45:10 was pretty spot on! Reminded me of The Balladeer/ Waylon Jennings lines from The Dukes of Hazzard!
Derek, you're a class act. No way Tanner would have been so gracious were the roles reversed.
Best part of this whole vid is at time stamp 13:43. The interaction between a father and his son. As a retired racer and pit boss I can tell you that these little interactions in the minutes before entering the track are worth as much as winning! - maybe ever more valuable.
Hello from an Old feller in Ireland. You just made my Thursday.
You mean to tell me that was NOT Morgan Freeman himself?? That voiceover was too perfect
Derek: thank God you were both protected in that crash! 🙏🏻There are a lot of folks out here that may never get to come out and watch and meet you in person , so it’s really nice that we can come along like this and participate anyway! Regardless there is a lot of prayer that goes out to you and yours for your protection and safety for you and yours as public figures, that are regular good down to earth country patriotic folks! Regards Mad Mike S.
I love the way Derek drives like he’s on a dirt track every time they put him in a crown vic
So much respect for you Derek! Great clean race! Loved the video and I know your times coming soon!!
Thanks!
I respect you for being respectful in how you talked about tanner. Watching the video it clearly was a dirty move on his end. Id have had a hard time talking respectfully about it like you did. You know some guys just get too excited. No some guys have no sportsmanship and have no business being out there. Good for you for being the better man!!
Derek, you're just so cool at being you: Refreshing, humble and a patriotic American, besides the uncanny knowledge and wit.
I grew up going to this track. It’s so amazing to see it saved and being as packed as ever.
Love seeing you hang with all my UA-cam faves like HeavyD, Cleetus, and Matts Offroad Rescue !
Hayley laughed when you said GEICO , Man you are a weapon!!! Love you Derek!
As a veteran and a man who loves my freedom Flag and Country - you’re patriotism is right in my lane - bless ya brother
You and uh were killing it the whole race! I hung onto every single turn and I ain’t kidding ya. A feller was def rooting for Derek almost loud enough for yall to hear from Texas.
Happy Birthday Cleatus big Thanks to Heavy D, last time I was in a Blackhawk we were getting shot at. Thank Brian that's a big motor for such a small car. Can't think of a better use for a Gremlin. The race looked like the loop around Atlanta or Dallas on a Friday afternoon. And thanks Derek for appreciating Veterans US ARMY 1974-1995 Great video 🇨🇱🇱🇷
Buddy, the heavy on the cold snacks look after being told it was over. A guy can really feel that.
Fell out off the sofa for the Dukes of Hazzard style pause and narration. Brilliant!!!!
They run a monster truck show called summer Smash in Evansville Indiana only like 3 hours north of you. Matt from demolition ranch drove a truck in it a few years back. The black stallion crew is always there. You would be blown away by the sheer number of fans you have in the area
Watched the whole thing on the stream. I was screaming at my screen when you got spun there at the end. Great job being a good human and a role model to all!
The look on that fella’s face @46:23 when you say “ask Brian if he’s got Geico.” That was hilarious. Thanks for the video. Glad you and Haley are safe.
You are the man!!! You are a driving machine. It was awesome seeing you and JH lead the race!!!
Man Derek you were done dirty! I was hoping you gave it back when you were behind the Tanner Foust on the restart. But, it shows your way to nice. BTW that's not a knock by no means. You my friend are one heck of a wheel man. Just start putting your elbows out and rubbing is racing! I can't wait to see you roll one of these into victory lane!
“The band?! They’re here?!” … would’ve been my same reaction 😂
Man you look like you are living your best life. I was excited to meet you at multiple events and thank you for your autograph. You are a legend and hope one day they make monuments of you. You are awesome at showing how to fix things and how things are so easy and you even have your kid doing the same. These are the types of videos we need to push society forward. Thank you, bless you and may our troops be safe today!
Sir, you are in fact, living the dream, of every motor head in the world. Just love what you are doing!!!! Thank you so much!!!!
Seeing those mini vans go big is the greatest thing I've ever seen
Bro that jet plane by far takes the marker that was the coolest thing I've ever seen
I was rooting for you 100%!! You drove amazing the whole race and nearly edged it off. Much love from NC Derek.
Knowing now he had power steering issues makes his performance even more betterer. Great job Derek
You and JH were the class of the field. Fellers put on a show. Now that he got his win, I do believe you’ll be next. Been too good to not have won one of these races yet. Congrats on the solid run and thanks for the great content.
This was quite different and ACTION PACKED! Loved it
13:38 Darnit... sumthin in me peepers. Thanks for bringing us along yet again Sir. Man... I gotta get to one of these events. Hoorah. 'Merica! I'm glad no one was hurt as well. Take care and we'll see ya on the flip side. Semper Fi.
Very cool 🤘 thanks for bringing us all along Derek, this was an awesome video ✌️🇺🇲
Man, that was a hell of a hit!!! Glad you and Haley are okay!
This is always My biggest gripe with oval racing. You can basically just wreck a guy with no consequences.
Loved the Roadside Frame Straightener!
THAT looked like a VERY EXCITING race! And you did so well.
I was there yelling for a feller doing the best he could with what he had! Great race a very proud of your driving skills. Great memories that weekend, keep doing what you’re doing.👍🏼
You're going to get one of these! Great to see you doing so well Derek and thanks for bringing us along.
When a feller predicts the future: “I’m not that good of a driver, we might hit some walls…” Perfect! 😂 Glad you both are ok!😅
You will win one of these soon Derek. Still the best channel on UA-cam and getting better all the time!
The "Van Prix". Too classic 😂. Freedom 500!👍💯🏁
What an awesome event!!
Great work on the footage!
Loved the Morgan Freeman like insert😂
Thank y'all for what you bring to the community...
Great peeps you are, and it really shows👍👊✌️
Derrick you are awesome.A true car guy who looks out for the other guy or gal . You are what hot rodding is all about FRIENDS
I'm glad that you are OK too Derek. Thanks for posting the video.
Did Tanner ever apologize to you? He should have!
Outstanding and awesome as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Morgan Freeman saying “slicker than goose poop on a pump handle” is the greatest. Got to wad them up once in a while 😊
At 11:30. You went right in the middle of a Heavy D wrestling match😂😂
You got pitted deliberately. Tanner Foust dumped you big as life. Foul on the play!!
Video a day early, this day is a good day. Yes please do monster trucks, stadium trucks, demo derby, hobby stocker I’ll watch you drive anything.
Morgan Freeman said it best ! LMBO ! Great run & glad You and Hailey are ok.
When I say I was SCREAMING at my tv screen, I was rooting for you man.
Fun fact for yeah. As a veteran of stainless steel process piping in food and beverage industries, drill stainless at 1/4 the speed of mild steel. Seems like it would be a slower job, but its way faster if you dont have to keep sharpening or replacing your dull bits. And of course don't forget the panther piss to keep the tip cool. Thanks for the entertainment as always. Killed myself laughing when the guy revved his engine and the expression and body language you had, and then said " I think its running" was epic.
Always a good day when you post
We had the same wagon growing up. We used to stand on the rear bumper and hold on to the roof racks while we tore down the gravel lane to our house here in Kentucky. That little 305 would be SCREAMIN! Damn....to be 16 again!
What a show. It’s cool to see just tons of different folks there like salvage to savage.
