Sick Week Day 2 : I ROLLED MY TRAILER!

[@jasonmc4guitar]

I find myself using Derek’s phrases and vocabulary waaaay too much. Perfect.

[@mattseymoure8198]

Glad I'm not the only one.

[@EliKazmaier]

Same.

[@mattmanyam]

It'll be fine.

[@derekhall7347]

A feller's wife told him the same thing the other day

[@ragreen2]

People use other phrases and vocabulary?! #hehe

[@markellington8682]

I laughed out loud when you said Jessica was using your "going to town" flannels to keep dry! I love your content Derek. You keep it professional and interesting. And you certainly have a great sense of humor. I look forward to all your videos.

[@IronChief]

The key is to put an axle on all 4 sides (top, bottom, left, right) of your trailer, and no matter how it flips you just keep going!

[@mountain177]

And a swivel at the hitch

[@gailynbrock5204]

A "flip-flop trailer!"

[@karabinjr]

haha yeah that's the right thing to do. Waaay too much. Perfect.

[@collick100]

How lovely to see Jessica there with you. You’re a very luck man to have such a supportive wife. Enjoy your time together.

[@Jaybear669]

I love that you and Jessica got to have this time together! Looks like a great time!

[@Daddyrabbit_2]

Derek might have had tooooo much fun last drive event! They might've had a cold snack or 12!

[@cpsmith1720]

As an O'Reilly employee, I'm really proud that you represent us in a very good way, thank you!

[@jerzeytodd]

I just found a guy last week, I’m dozens of videos deep and this is my new favorite show. Derek you are very appreciated and doing a great service to the car community. You are showing people that the car scene isn’t all about money and is about having fun. Its great to have such a entertaining person who is humble and really cares about his country and the community. Keep up the great work, nothing can stop you buddy!

[@mightymikethebear]

I am glad to see no real damage was done when the trailer was rolled. This type of event will show what works and what needs more work/repairs on your vehicle. Have fun and please post again soon.

[@neiloconnell2120]

Whilst I love Derek as any brother would, I find myself looking forward to seeing Jessica on tape. Her reaction to being asked to connect the battery was priceless :)

[@adamradley4407]

The little shake of the head after panning away from the water leaking in from vents..... priceless

[@andrewking2590]

yeah, i know how she feels...if someone...anyone had remembered to turn it on, she would not have had to get out of her comfy seat.

[@Hanzyscure]

Masking or Duct ?

[@abuickguy6335]

It was probably the one hundred and fourteenth point seven time that he asked A.fellet to do that.

[@jimrky6062]

A feller could come to think he was supposed to remember to do things - like turning the bat'ry on ... or hitching the steer-i-lator up before starting the rig ... I just don't know ...

[@MartyBeardFace]

3:20 I love seeing those RX7s in the wild. Don't even care if it's got a V8 swap (or not), those lines are beautiful without being dramatic. Add to that sitting in one feels like you're in the cockpit of some fighter jet, it's gotta be one of the best cars Mazda ever created.

[@taylorlengyel]

Thanks for taking the time to meet me and sign my truck man, great event and nice folks

[@grantkoeller8911]

Super cool truck!!;!!!

[@taylorlengyel]

@@grantkoeller8911 thanks man

[@puddleduckist]

It's an adventure when your cruising with Vice Grip Garage, glad your trailer wasn't too damaged Derek and especially your wheels. Best of luck to you guys, be safe and have fun!!

[@S550STANG]

Awesome to see so many different perspectives of this event!

[@baconfarts3211]

Automotive "Iron Man" competition. 🚙🚖🚘⛽🚦

[@Thuddster]

Derek, thank you for this journey. It's almost like a guy was riding along with you on the road, brings back some happy memories it do. Get after it!

[@markhenrichs8388]

Great event! Great coverage! Can hear your granddad and Dad in heaven saying "he rolled his trailer again!"

[@mohawk2138]

Derek GOING to de fault settings..... Any car that Derek drives in any drive and drag seems to drive AWAY from the trailer s and drag his butt back to find lost parts.....

[@jeffwall7454]

Derek’s coverage sucks!!!!!! Here we are day 5 and he’s only posted day 2!!!!!!! Ksr is far better you tuber!!!!!!

[@Whopoopedinmypants]

Jeff just mad he isn't there lol

Kenton steckler hahaha ya that’s it

[@thomaseld1090]

@@jeffwall7454 and yet here you are.

[@robertmccuistion9218]

When I was back in my younger days. I built a 64 Chevy II to much. Stock bore and stroke 283, M22 4 speed, 488 rear gear. Ran in the 12's, 1/4 mile. Got beat one time. It was so fast it would outrun a Smith & Wesson bullet. Watching your mini tv movies bring back a ton of very fond memories. Thanks DEREK.

[@michaelstone917]

Who knew that a clapped out Chevelle would come to be the most iconic car on the Internet

[@dalewalker4614]

The stranded scenes with Derek's diagnosis and roadside repairs are to the Vice Grip Garage KZbin series what the clever scientific solutions in tight spots with just his Swiss Army Knife, some duct tape and occasional matches were to the MacGyver TV series! Only MacGyver didn't have a trusty & loving sidekick like Jessica at his side.... Lovin' me some Vice Grip Garage! ❤❤❤

[@grayhounddaddy62leake83]

Following along on this journey with y'all and enjoying every minute!!!

[@christophermiller4156]

Your spirit of Adventure is amazing. God Bless Jessica for sharing the spirit willingly.

[@mikepraed4623]

Hey thanks for bringing us along! Im loving this style of racing.😀

[@dstdrummer]

12:04 HEY! That’s Granada and Atlantic! I’m right down in Daytona. I drive a semi delivering soda and stocking coolers at gas stations and whatnot. I run through there like every other day!! Awesome!

[@JamesMorse54]

Hope you find the Sunshine soon! Good luck on the track and be safe on the roads Feller,………..and Filet.

[@randomyank7777]

The knowing look on the 80 something octane was priceless ! Jessica's look too , about turning on the battery ! The power steering & transmission leaks . The plugs fowling , trailer roll . What's not to love ? I noticed there wasn't much of Jessica on the trailer roll , probably still had that look on her face while you had to clean it up ! Yup , a guy knows when he pushes it a little too far & starts getting that look from her ! Of course it takes a minute for him to SEE IT !

[@NoGoodNamesLeft]

Love to see that you have stuck with the theme from when you drove el toro. Consistency is key!

[@frankschwartz7405]

Hey Derek! If you swap plugs with the Monte, It'll clean em right up. You need a detergent dispenser on Independence, a nozzle near each oil leak. When you drive thru the rain.....squeaky clean. Automagical!

[@caroled5734]

Hi sweeties! Was so looking forward to Gainesville but at 77 and real achy, the weather did me in. I couldn’t come. I was so depressed all day. MamaCard loves you

[@richardirish2153]

I’m glad to hear that know one was injured in the old flip flop pull behind thing! Yes I’m trying to speak in Derik talk! Keep on giving us the great entertainment that we know you for! Hope both cars make it to the end! Thanks!

[@richardirish2153]

That’s, no one!

[@TossMySalad2]

Man that Monte is SWEET!! 🤘.. IVE always loved them old monte's..

[@Lions7.62mm]

Jessica is SUCH a fkn rockstar trooper‼️ it's pretty badass that your wife is down to go on a full week race week trip with you, and doin it with a smile! Hope you two have a blast!

[@highmarkrich]

That wrap on the Monte looks great. Really brings back the racing feel. Definitely mission accomplished on that.

[@shawnmansfield4299]

Don't feel too bad about your ghost stilts. I'm from Minnesota and I feel your pain. I live in Georgia and I wear shorts all the time....no...no. I have an 03 S10 that my stepfather and I dropped a small block and Edelbrock AV2 carb into. I can't wait to send it down a really long driveway. I have been binge watching vgg for about two weeks now. Thanks for the tip on the trailer! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and humor.

[@millerbeer01]

Your channel just makes my week much much better. Thank you and your family.

[@CommodoreGreg]

Derek -- The 1974 Monte Carlo holds a special place in my heart. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ignore the calls to do more aggressive changes to it. As you know getting anything original for these is impossible. You specifically did more to preserve the original car than anything destructive. This is exactly why I love your channel. Well that combined with your humor. What you did perfectly balanced keeping these pieces of history alive and doing something creative. They don't make brand new old cars!

[@corporalclegg914]

03:30 - I’ve never seen a wheel trashed like that. it’s cool to see Coupé on VGG.

[@RYTHMICRIOT]

Check out Cooper's video too. It's interesting to get everyone's video perspective of the action.

[@jtuck6065]

@@RYTHMICRIOT I was gonna say. It’s cooper and he’s prone to such odd issues 😂 He seems like a good quality feller, tho, so I try to support his channel, as well.

[@Asterik210]

When it rains it pours! I loved the video and all the scenery you showed...and Jessica looks beautiful riding in the people's car looking so happy,even with the few glitches you're having along the way! Good Luck and stay safe!See you on the next video❤

[@Amisafeyet]

It's pronounced "puh-lat-kuh". Really enjoyed the footage after leaving Hoot Owl. Those moss laden trees get me every time. I'm truly glad nobody was hurt in the roll over. Stay safe. God Bless.

[@lynndragoman1573]

Maybe a tube of caulk would help on the flooded interior. And since you stop at every Oreillys maybe a new power steering pump and a transmission pan gasket?

[@bubba99009]

You just need to rig up your spare wheels on a working axle on the top so you can run the trailer either side up.

[@blanbec14]

Man these videos are making the trip so full. You are managing all that stuff plus videos and posts. And it is not counting all preparation. Congratulations for the energy you give to us.

[@wrenchinwithgrandpa4586]

Love it, guts and gears! When you put everything out on the road/track! God’s Blessings

[@liljohn1064]

As I'm watching these front to back and mixing in the new ones, I just watched the LS install followed by the wrap unveil. Pretty funny how the accidental timing worked out. Less than a year to go and just a few more samiches.

[@FreedomRock44]

Great Job Derek and Jessica!!!! Glad the trailer made out okay for you!

[@bobdawson9702]

WoW Derek, I am very impressed with what you have done with the Chevelle and the Monte in such a short time. I was looking forward to meeting you in Orlando but the rain ruined the fun for us all. I'm a retired Vietnam vet who lives near Orlando and I've been a drag racing fan for more than 50 years. I'm a big Chevrolet guy too and a C5 Corvette owner. Hope to catch you the next time you are in Florida. Keep those videos coming.

[@LS1LE]

I think the coolest part is that you make cars a family friendly event. Thank you!!!

[@BobbyFigliola]

Greetings from Daytona....bummer of the day ya had in Orlando and today.....sunny warm and beautful ... yeah, but the chevelle still leaking. Thanks for keeping us posted and oh yeah....Thanks Jessica for editing and posting

[@hudsonhotrod1]

Love this type of racing! Thanks for taking us along! We used to roll a baseball bat inside the fender to gain a little clearance, maybe that might work for you guys?………:)

[@braddocksgarage]

The fender would blow out from all the rust in it! On independence anyway. That would work on the monty just fine.

[@launceherron]

Kyle from boosted boys has a fender roller with him

[@lcampm2]

That’s what I did once. Was thinking the same thing

[@colinklang]

Yep. First stop of the morning for my wife too. Glad you two are getting some quality time together and having fun.

[@mwyatt222]

All the other drivers that had no content from the rain delays are saying ''that damn Bieri, he knows exactly when to toss his trailer''. ;)

[@MrCarburetor]

It was a pleasure meeting you today at the museum!

[@michaelsteward4423]

So happy to here y'all are still in it! Worried when we didn't see ya yesterday in Gainesville.

[@landontesar3070]

Thanks for showing Florida, Old haunts. I could feel the humidity, not like you could. Haven't been back for 20 years. Still familiar.

[@jasonjones5213]

Thanks for the videos, a trailer flip just adds to the fun.

[@c_firebirdgo]

I'm just now watching this video. 3 days before this my dad had passed away. I was on the road and saw you guys driving south on 75 and I was heading north. I drove 17 hours straight from Florida to Michigan

[@gailynbrock5204]

Such a great example of patience and perseverance whilst having fun!

[@robertbryant7771]

The old Harbor Freight trailer is the best of all time. Build to any configuration you want, holds over 1100 pounds if it needs to, little or no weight in the trunk. I’ve dragged mine all over NC hauling kayaks, furniture from 7-8 moves, behind a 2003 Accord 5-speed. Even put it behind my truck a time or two. 4 feet of deck between the wheels, can’t flip it… I’m sayin’ all this there’s probably a rule you can’t pull one of those lol

[@DustinSeiger]

Florida was my old stomping grounds. Watching you go to all these places is like driving down memory lane.

[@anthonyestevez118]

It's so fun to watch everyone's perspective. Thanks for sharing!

[@don-e4838]

Love the old school slotted mags on the back of Independence!

[@NLJosh83]

As someone who lives on the Atlantic Ocean where trees are of the black spruce flavour and not Palm Tree, I can verify that it's still usually raining the same at 47 degrees north same as it is at 30 degrees north of the equator. In a bay called "Conception Bay" no less.

[@cashcat4lyfe822]

Good morning Derek and Jessica! Hope everything is going well and you're having fun out there

[@tripprogers4814]

Hey Derek..we're ALL rubbing. So.. THAT'S good.

[@slowride55]

I love how independence is still wearing all its original paint as when you got it.

[@fma4everedo]

same paint scheme, but he did touch it up quite a bit with some rattlecans. Left it looking old, but there's a video where he repainted quite a bit of it due to repairs and because it was down to bare surface rust in a lot of areas. Go back and watch the video when he first got it, actually looks a decent bit different. But still awesome looking either way. Normally I am not a fan of the "patina" look one bit, but on this car it works so good

[@paulbanzhaf1859]

Love this one. Makes me want to drive my 72 farther now... Much like this one I built it myself and I still don't trust it to go on a long trip... Watching this makes me want to try it!

[@randyjackson8138]

I can only imagine what it looks like seeing these 2 cars running down the highway 🤟😎 awesome

[@vdan02]

We used to throw spring blockers(spring stabilizers) on W-body rear springs to change the spring tension in the rear to combat squat a little.

[@saganworshipper6062]

Just watched the Motion Raceworks video, where Derek expressed his love for El Toro. Now, let's just hope that car finds it's way to Derek's home where we all know it belongs. Doug will hopefully have his Nova back soon and not have a need for the Mustang anymore. I mean a guy can wish can't he?

[@QuantumLeap83]

El Toro is the designated test mule for Motion Racework prototype parts. Until they designate another one I doubt Doug will let it go.

[@michaellee6489]

wow sure was good seeing ol' El Toro and the boys at MRW. almost died laughin when I saw the thumbnail for this episode. really good to see Jess with you...man she just keeps geting prettier!!! thank you guys for all you share with us out here. I know it truly makes our day to hear from someone we can really get behind and root for!

Hey for that low octane fuel, you can always stop by a hardware store and pick up some toluene, or some xylene. look on the internet for the ratio and give it some octane boost. It don't take much. but its the only difference between fuels.
