Woke Up To A FLAT Drag Radial! - Can We Back Up The ZZ632 Trucks Fastest Time!? - Sick Week Day 4

[@matthagersr]

Can we clone Derek for more content? Between the AIsles, Little grip, VGLodge, Roadworthy rescues, there isn't enough Derek on YT. Derek is literally responsible for many new words and use of the vernacular. Best YT on the planet. Good, genuine, funloving, knowledgeable, hardworking, family man... Bucket list item to pick the brain

[@leegoldeneagle9003]

As always thanks for the fun y'all 👍👍👍👍👍😊

[@Dapper422]

Spot on, mate. I expect to see a cardboard cutout of him at every Orileys, and im disappointed when I don't. 😂

[@cliffsta87337]

Agreed!! I’ve been really digging the new shed / shop build on Lodge

[@matthagersr]

The best thing about Derek is he doesn't make those of us who aren't as trained as him to tackle the the basics

[@matthagersr]

​@@cliffsta87337he's so good to the people doing work for him.

[@TheG8guy]

I would like to thank you and your wife for taking the time to talk to my boys and me! It meant a lot to them! The toy mustang has a special spot on his shelf. We are big fans of your channel, keep it up! Thanks

[@johnlocklear]

That's awesome they did that for you. Derek is def a true guys guy. He's not in it for the celebrity status.

[@johnbrannum5536]

How come you don't. Run a quick change rear end ?

[@wesleypulkka7447]

Derek and Jessica are the absolute A TEAM!

[@sadiststev]

I love how Jessica is supportive of Derek and going to the track to help out. She is Awesome and Derek is a lucky man...

[@gartan8449]

As far as I know Jessica is a car gal herself. She is supportive but she also does enjoy going to the events. She generally runs the merchandise tent however before they did that she would always travel with Derek and go racing with him. I think it's been a big part of their lives since they met. Someone tell me of I'm wrong. It's been a while since I watched their question and answer video.

[@vangoodwin7335]

Best supporting actress in a comedy drama goes to the Lovely Miss Jessica for her smile as Derek explained his boys name for the restaurant!!!! YEAH Doing great folks so glad you are all doing well. With Love and Respect, You are all in my prayers Hoka Hey

[@tonykemper8896]

Yes! a feller has just settled in for the night so I can watch a guy race some cars!! Thanks for all you do Derek and family!

[@michaellee6489]

Great show! You really make us feel like we are right there with ya! One of my many favorite parts is when you're signing off and I could barely see Jessica sitting in the truck laughing at you. All these years and she still finds you funny? You got something real special. Thank You so much.

[@garyking1705]

Love the way the Chevelle torque's over to the right as it heads down the track. That is legitimate torque.

[@shelleyking8450]

I had a small-block Nova in the 80s that did that on hard hits. Wrinkled the tops of the front fenders over time.

[@scottcochran384]

thats the reason Us old school guys used to add a chain on the left side of the block to the frame.. Stock rubber motor mounts wouldn't hold up to the torque.

[@Bobthebuilder.69]

​@@shelleyking8450 I had an old g body Malibu that wrinkled the quarters over time with a rowdy 434 on the jug

[@sometimesleela5947]

I think the solid motor mounts exacerbate that.

[@pr3modeling239]

​@scottcochran384 blew apart my fan shroud and my power steering pump put a dent in my hood power shifting my 69 Javelin at 6,000 RPM because of that... 😂😂😂

[@rickjohns689]

Volcano onion, love it. My son when he was 4 called parmesan cheese "parmeezian" cheese, he's 21 now and I still call it that, lol. Kids are great.

[@madmex2k]

My granddaughter calls Netflix "NeckFlakes" since she was 3-4 years old. She is 11 now, still calls it that.

[@warrenmichael918]

My daughter when she was like 2 or so, called our little neighbor kid "DOOKIE" his name is actually Derek but she couldnt say that very well at her age. All of us laughed and called him Dookie thinking it was cute and figured it was just gonna be a 1 or 2 time thing we would tease him with, NOPE, that was almost 20 years ago and to this day, all of us and even his friends as well as his grandma still call him DOOKIE. He has since married and has 2 young kids now. The youngest one is just starting to speak a little bit and calls him DOOKIE. Anyways, the reason for that kinda long story was because of your "parmeezian" story and the fact that every time i see or talk to any "Derek" i call them DOOKIE in my head! So VGG is DOOKIE in my mind!! HAHA

[@LLthereistome2024]

Gotta love a VGG video where we see what's a happening. Thanks Dereck and Jessica

[@johnwinter9722]

An epic road trip! Not likely to be able to join in anytime soon, but so much fun to watch your adventures. Hate it when the air doesnt stay where it belongs. Glad you could get a replacement. Thanks to you and team for great times to watch.

That truck is far from just dropping a big block in to a heavy ol’ work truck to run in fifth, to start with that a $33k big block.

[@ricksteinbauer9970]

I think that’s why there’s a sticker on the back window that says “it cost a lot of money to look this cheap”

[@kellyrback]

Steve Morris with the casual scooter ride by @10:29 lol

[@roo1871]

YES HAHAH, I just commented that and thought I wonder if anyone else noticed

[@krwd]

Derek, i know you are busy. I had mentioned once before about using the nitrile gloves when working with oils, fuels, etc because of the cancer risk i know two mechanics that died of cancer their hands were dirty almost round the clock it gets into your organs they cost pennies but could save you 👍👍🤔🤔

[@Rob-Müller]

Can't agree more. I have always done my own wrenching. Never wore any sort of gloves/masks. By the time I was forty, I was starting to get some weird skin irritations on my hands and arms. I started wearing gloves at that point and they help a lot. Also wear dust/vapor masks when appropriate. I know old timers that are deaf and saw how that impacts their lives. Taught me to wear ear plugs when required as well. I realize that this may be hard for Derek when making videos, but I wanted to let him know that it wouldn't bother me if he used masks/gloves/ear protection.

[@charleshuffman7565]

Finally!! I've been fighting sleep for a hour just so I could watch VGG now I can go to sleep satisfied 😂

[@comeandtravel1]

Love your shorter videos like this one. Good edits.

[@davidohler5611]

Thanks for including us living vicariously through your adventures. You are sure a lucky man to have such great support from your wife. I lost mine of over 40 years to cancer and watching how well you two relate is great to see-enjoy and hopefully you two will always treat each other as precious. I’m retired and you’ve encouraged me to have some adventures - Thanks and keep on keepin on. 👍👍

[@Tonyclifton-q4f]

i have as much right to reply to these videos as much as the next sheep who follows this part time comedian ,i see a trend in near 95 percent of the revivals and that is that it follows a script with silly catchphrases and ol cars ,hes channel used to be good then it blew up and became so damm predictable ,every now and again ill go back and see if hes drummed up some new material but NO same ol gibberish ,im sure its all a facade as nobody can be a weird version of Jerry Lewis and Ace Ventura for that long

About an hour ago I got all caught up on watching the last 3 videos and I was bummed there wasn't any more. The fact that Derek and Jessica are adding these videos during all the chaos is a testimate to their channel. A tip of the hat to you both, and I hope you guys have a great time!

[@NetWit20]

You've got the best music and editing of any car show and I see a lot of them. You make these videos look so easy and you do them in a casual and light-hearted way, but I know a lot of work goes into them. You take your work seriously, but not yourself. Including your family and friends in the mix make it the perfect car related channel. Talking over the loud announcer is an example of using unplanned events to your advantage. It makes it funnier. Well done as always!

[@y5mgisi]

My favorite channel on KZbin. Hands down.

[@normenderle550]

Thanks dude for the daily coverage. I imagine it would be all too easy to not film or edit and just have fun on a trip like this so to take time out every day to keep us up to speed is impressive.
