Heart Sank As I watched my Son Hit the Wall. Sick Week Day 5

[@jsheradin]

"We could build an automatic anything with a V8 anything and just click off times [...] the struggle is just better" Exactly why I watch this channel. Never stop doing what you do.

[@shiftsandgiggles237]

I felt this

[@TunerThings]

Glad he's okay - this made me break down a little bit man. Thought about my son and he's only 4. Got a passion for racing and cars already though he's ALWAYS with me in the garage... I want him to be in the sport but more than that I want him to be safe. You're a great dad Brent, fix it and get back out there, Shane!

[@zaceryhammond1144]

Yes but this shouldn’t have happened the welds didn’t have the penetration necessary to be structural. It’s lucky he only hit the wall doing 20 not at the top end or when he was going down the highway … if your not 1000% confident in your welding pay somebody else especially on structural members

[@PFIBrent]

[@123blarson]

@@PFIBrent fuck ah that’s a sketchy one i definitely would be sending them a letter with a couple photos … There’s only one thing to do now tho get out there and build yourself something better!

[@zaceryhammond1144]

@@123blarson I don’t doubt they can build stronger ones … but it just shouldn’t have happened to begin with like that’s a huge liability problem for the manufacturer I’m not saying they suck at welding either just this is a great tool to show what happens when welds are sub par… and that’s why you want somebody with experience doing anything structural…. I’ll weld a new floor in my truck or weld up a bracket for a light but If it’s structural get the guy with the time on the tools to do it ya know

[@nathanjones8118]

Man this video has me feeling emotional. The love Brent has for his son and their passion for racing is something special

[@KenFilmsCars]

Brent your close out emotion is why I love your channel so much. For me to come to sick week from the UK and have an absolutely unforgettable time with everyone was only possible because I lost my dad 4 years ago. I finally got his estate finalised last year not much before sick week was announced and when it was I knew I going to come, make it first visit to the states and do something for me to remember forever. You and Shane were one of many father son teams I met and honestly seeing these partnerships, these family bonds makes me so humble and it helps in a way with my lose. I was only 33 when he died and we should have had way more time together. He met my daughter but never met my son (their 5 and 2 now) and these stories just show me how to be with them and how I want my relationship with my kids to be when they grow up. Much love to you guys and hopefully I can make a rocky mountain race week one day with my family in tow. Ps I was the guy in the union Jack shirt Friday asking about ya proud dad moments

[@mckrackin5324]

I felt so bad for Goofy and you when that car hooked into the wall. I'm glad he wasn't hurt and that it didn't do it at 150 mph. Look forward to seeing it fixed. The car is lucky to have such a great work ethic aimed at it.
