Storage Unit to Staging Lanes - HOW FAST Is This Turbo Buick? + Duct Tape Drags!

[@jordancampbell5010]

Congratulations, Derek. I was checking out your numbers, and your channel frequently surpassed NASCAR truck racing for the number of viewers. More people watch you than a multi-million dollar production.

[@joshTheAudioGuy]

I had a turbo t type Buick regal that ran 14.28 in the 1/4 off the brake pedal on radial tires with a tiny burn out.

[@joshTheAudioGuy]

14.28 108 mph if u catch the boost climbing perfect off the brake pedal u can time a decent launch and tickle around 13.85 - to 14.00 dial in and they run consistent my t type won the slow bracket race about 5 different times.

From building a Chevelle in his plain garage to being the MC at a burnout competition and being in commercials for o'reilly. Air high fives Derek! Also, the entire exhaust system on that truck was cherry red at the end. Gave me goosebumps 😜

[@allenwilliams8624]

Been watching VGG for a few years now and that burnout running down the wall waving your hand to pump up the crowd gave me goosebumps. Hands down the coolest burnout. What great energy you bring to this industry. You’ve become a staple in households all over the country and I’m on the edge of my seat waiting for more. Fantastic job.

[@nascargas]

I always knew Derek was a showman with his own distinctive style. I was not prepared for the kind of showman he has really become! He had the crowd when he stepped out of Charlotte and dejectedly said "....digicals...." But then he emceed the burn out competition with ease, like he has been doing this all his life. This was a great show!

It wouldn't be a VGG pit if something didn't break. But even more VGG to get it rolling again and still put on a show by the end!

[@michaelgiordano1231]

Monday 3:45 pm. Derek, when my father and I worked on cars when I was a kid in the 60's, his terminology was like yours with sparkolalters and mixolaters so when I hear your descriptions, it always takes me back. Plus we worked on LOTS of old Cadillacs. Love your show. Michael Giordano

[@BUILTFORDTOUGH79]

I love that Derek is part of the Motortrend family. It’s cool to see him with Freiburger and Dulcich and the rest of the crew. Content is 👌🏻

[@nick540g]

I disagree! The exposure from the MT series is great (and the extra income too, I presume), but those rescue episodes are so heavily edited that there's no sense of the time and effort they required -- and the physical and mental toll on Derek and friends is plain to see. I really don't like that series. His self-produced KZbin work is FAR better in my opinion.

[@bradrozell]

Love to see all the fun & success you're having. Don't forget your bread and butter, doing rescues/revivals. It's what got ya here.

[@bigblockjess617]

Derrick please. Please always have your fire suit on during any burn out. Especially since Charlotte is pretty much wide open and no body to sheikd you. Things can go bad real quickly when u least expect it. Just want u to be safe bud.

[@joerosier6059]

Call me a stick in the mud but I just don't get the burn out pit thing. So you make a car that can burn the tires off (not that hard) and then take it out there and spin donuts around with it. How much talent does it take to do that? Drag racing is great, takes driving skill and mechanical skill to build a car that will go fast in the 1/4 mile. If you could strap a monkey in the seat of a burn out car and show him where the go fast pedal is, I'm sure he would figure out the rest. Just not my cup of tea.

[@mkeolver]

To be fair burning out the tires while spinning around in a Dodge Viper while maintaining control and not smacking up against a wall does sound like it would take some skill.

Derek, I sure do enjoy your videos and the fact you include your boys and lovely wife. So good to see family sharing the things they love doing. I too was raised up on a farm to be a Jack of all trades and master of non. I like seeing a well rounded person who can do most anything. The rescue of an old internal combustion engine in a classic vehicle is rewarding, no matter what it is. It’s is so good there able to share you guys videos with my family and know there won’t be anything that requires a censor so the kiddos can watch. It just amazes my granddaughter, 7 and 10, that your boys jump in there too and are learning so much useful information and not some of the junk taught in our public schools now. Please keep up the good videos and hold to the values you represent. I live up in Cookeville and going to try to get down to visit soon.
