I was the fedex driver i am honored to have been able to help im just glad yall made it to bristol safe it was a pleasure to meet you and bently

I don't know if you've realised yet, but you are a darn good driver. You deserve to be there with all those other fellers and felletes.

I appreciate you bringing good, clean content to KZfaq. No cussing and flying tool nonsense. God Bless you and your family and thanks for working so hard.

Can we also have a massive round of applause for Chad and Hayley and everyone else who helps Derek do what Derek does best.

Because of this channel I gained the confidence to rebuild the old 351 out of my 96 f250. Got it done in 3 days on my own and didn’t have any bolts left over when I was done! Runs like a champ too. Thanks for the awesome content! Keep up the great work!

Derek out here living all our Talladega Nights dreams: going fast, autographing babies, and not knowing what to do with his hands on camera. 😄 Thanks for all the great stuff and hard work you do!

Watching you go from a regular feller to where you are now is so awesome. You bring a lot of motivation and encouragement to all of us. Much appreciated Derek. God bless and Semper Fi

This is one of if not the only channels I can watch hour long videos. Wished I could do what you do, so fun man. Keep it up!

“I think I might have a flat tire, I also didn’t update my Will” This line made me laugh so hard I woke my wife up. I was just thinking about how dangerous this race is. I’ve been towed by chains before and never have I ever wanted to go over 10 mph. Thank you for everything Derek.

Congratulations on winning your first burnout contest🎉

Anyone who says the American dream is dead needs to take a hard look at this guy. Over the years he has put in hard work to hone his craft and improve his skills. Plenty of sacrifice away from home, family and the comforts of familiarity. Watching you step into new projects, make attempts, fail, improve, and thrive has been a wonderful experience.

Derek, you ARE the definition of an american man. There is nobody in the world that deserves the success in life than you. You are an amazing family man, you are hilarious beyond belief, and youre a craftsman to say the least. It's an absolute honor to watch you brother. Keep up the awesome work and never change who you are. VGG Nation for Life.

Dude i love you. Recently had a pops pass on. Didnt know what i needed till i heard your voice. I appreciate your hard work

Derek always so humble .it's always family friend's and everyone else first. A real oldskool hero.

In-car footage as you enter the burnout pit = BRAND new VGG intro footage material...nice work Derek!

Whaaaaaaaat? An hour long vidgea on a Thursday? I can't believe it, but I got to, I'm watching it. Love love love your channel and all that you do.

As an Aussie watching this on my lunch break, I love that burnout comps are becoming more of a thing up there. Definitely wish you could make an appearance at Summernats one year! I enjoy every single video you post, and its so awesome the way your family and friends are all along for the ride. My son is only four years old but you inspire me to be the kind of father you are, teach him well and include him in every adventure I can.

Your son is well on his way to take over the way he reacts to what you need done .let’s like he. He see the problem and has a solution just like his dad . You should be proud.

A fella really knows how to handle that barn build, Congratulations Sir

Way to SEND IT! Thank you for all you do, explain, and setting a great example of what a good guy really is. And you’ve given this guy the inspiration to tackle my own projects (with my kids).

Amazing win on the burnout, the red white and blue tire smoke was amazing!

That guy jumping the crown vic was crazy, those flips can't be good for any of the bones in his body, and his kneck and back had to have taken a beating. Derek, you can drive the daylights out of anything you drive, really fun watching. G-d bless you and the family, and everyone watching.

Thank you Volunteer Muffler & Performance!

Let’s go!!!! It was such an awesome weekend and an honor to meet a guy!! Congrats on the burnout wins!!!

Dude,, I am a big Cleeter fan but the only reason I rent the PPV up here in Canada is to watch you and Matt from Demo Ranch !! I was ecstatic to see you take a Trophy !!! Been watchin you in these contests from your first year !! One good Crown Vic and you will win that one too for sure !!!

Oh man! 496! I tried one out last year when a customer traded in to us a Avalanche 2500. Man what a wonderful beast! I woulda kept her. But she snuck down here from Ohia. And she was smothered in rust. But the guy that bought her from me Repurposed that motor for his build up in Knoxville. I think yours is incredible! How cool! Thanks again VGG

Hey Derek I really appreciate what you do. My grandpa passed away a couple months ago and he was my hero. He was the person who got me into cars. I was telling my wife how I love your stuff so much because you remind me of him so much. Please keep it up and I hope you continue doing what you are with all those digicals and sparkalators and fuel make it happeners. Love you man you are a huge inspiration to car guys and gals everywhere!

Love all you do Derek, making the world a more interesting place!!

Ive never had anyone to teach me anything about cars nor really had any interest in cars until i started watching your revivals my man. In my 26 years of life im actually interested now into rebuilding and getting into mechanic work because of you brother. Keep it up!

I love all of your content whether it's revivals, in the aisles or competitions. I don't have the guts or know anything about racing or burnout competitions, but I love watching you have a blast with it. This is not just another internet racing video, you also fill it with humor, good sportsmanship and family memories. You're a hero, not only because you're a good mechanic and driver, but also a good feller!

As an Aussie, seasoning burnout tyres works well. Leave em out in the sun. Soak em in brake fluid. And leave in the sun again. Wicked burnout Derek!

Heck yeah, Derek! Grats' on the W! And, not gonna lie... that's a sweet new tow rig you have there.

WTG Derek. Much deserved win in the burnout box. Your having sooo much fun in all the events. Races, car shows, in the barn at home and it's awesome that you and your whole family share it with us. Thank you Jessica and little humans for all the hard work you do. Looking forward to the next adventure and all the laughs. Lol, sitting here I just had a laugh remembering the Christmas Party bus video. Oh that was just too much (wipes away a tear of laughter). Thanks again ya'll.

Can I just say, I love how the car community helps each other out, even if they are competing against each other.

Hey Derek, the " I have a flat....and I need to update my will" comment had me in stitches. We are blessed you let us come along with you for all these adventures. You have inspired many of us to get busy on our projects. I have an old Mustang that I bought in 1985. Drove it around for a lot of years but it has been mainly parked with minor issues for the better part of 10 years. After watching you at work, I got to work and have driven it more this summer than the previous 10 combined. Was holding out for the "perfect" build but am realizing your philosophy is better. I am embracing it's many flaws, getting out and enjoying it thanks to you!

Mannn this was my first time attending a Cleetus and Cars event and wow… you guys definitely did not disappoint and the fact I got to meet you and Cleetus just tops it all for me. Keep up the great work and awesome content, love that new, newish, older but gooder? Dually ya got there, sweet tow rig!

What a great way to end a long work week, a new episode 🍻 VGG NATION! Thank you Bieri family!

Congrats VGG crew! Your burnout was awesome for sure. I love what you're doing, and although I know you hear about revivals all the time please let me assure you that if that's all you did, those folks would be gone in no time. What people ACTUALLY want is variety, and that way their favorite thing stays their favorite. Keep it up, Bieris!

Hi Derek, I wouldn’t have dreamed of reaching out, but the co-incidence of you releasing a video about a trip to Bristol is too much. Watched EVERY video of yours, such an inspiration. I’ve just bought an old motorcycle from Bristol in England, and made a one off video about collecting it and bringing it back home to Glasgow 400 miles away. Totally inspired by your work, and referenced/acknowledge you, but it isn’t anywhere near as sketchy as your adventures. The most I could hope, is that it makes you chuckle. Have a great day.

I was there for both days. I spoke with Jessica a few times and did get to speak with you too once. I saw the boys around the track also. I did get some new merch while there also. I thoroughly enjoyed the weekend, even if it did get kinda toasty in the stands. A weekend of burnt rubber and mayhem, what's a feller not to like about that?!?

*🎉Congratulations on your Burn Out W🎉* PPV coverage is getting so good. Well worth the little money. My heart dropped when you fell back. I thought you had a real chance of winning this one.

We Aussies may have started it but you guys a doing a pretty good job at it. Very proud to see you win the burnout comp. Can't wait to see you one day here at Summernats

I absolutely love that dually. What a fun build

Derek congratulations on the win in the burnout competition I wished you Luck last video to bring home the trophy but after watching you shred those colorful tires it was 90% skill and 10% luck great job. Square body dually excellent

What a blessed day when Derek is involved! Keep doing what ya do brother ❤️✊🏼

I’m 49 and have been into cars my whole life and I bet that kid knows more than I do. I sure would have loved to have dad!

What a great event. Glad you and the family can share your experiences with us.Cheers

you are a true champion Derek and a great father keeping it real with your boys so cool to see them helping you when you are fixing up those classic forgotten vehicles that deserve your help getting them fixed up and back on the road

Congratulations on the well deserved win, you absolutely smoked the tires! Hard to believe a few years ago I was watching you rebuild junkyard cars. having a few hundred thousand subscribers, and now I can say your name at work (About a hundred employees) and most will have heard of you. Completely well deserved I must add, always so entertaining and simply inspiring. Again congrats on the win, and thanks for making my day even better week after week. Take care and God bless!

I like the way you left the face shield up so the smoke could blow into your eyes on the burnout !

Watching your videos makes me feel good, which is a pretty big deal for me. Thank you Derek and all your friends, family and team!

Way to go Derek! You deserve it with all your hard work and taking us along for the ride. I hope you can get into a decent Vic one of these years

Actually in tears now, after watching since day one and just no one deserves blessings and fun and a great life more than you guys 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

You absolutely killed that show! I didn’t get the chance to see it live and finally got to see your run, I have to say, you are an incredible driver, I’ve been watching for years and you’re such an inspiration, especially to my current project, thank you so so much for the family friendly, helpful and entertaining content, you are such a blessing to so many!!

Great trophy, eagle an all, for a Great win 👍👍! That thar tow rig’s a pretty nice lookin outfit! Thanks for taking us along for the ride!

Congratulations on your great burnout runs! No power barn fires, no burnt hoof, all in all a good day! I just love to see and hear Charlotte run. Some day, I hope, I'll be able to come over and visit such an event. Greetings from France.

Great job Derek, Jessica and Crew.... Thanks for bringing us along with your adventures!

Awesome video and thanks for taking all of us along for the ride. Congratulations on your win, you definitely deserved it. That was an awesome run.

Derek thank you for letting my dad and I help you with the letters on your car at the pit party! Congrats on your burnout rivals win!

Man that GMC you built for towing is awesome! The wheels really set it off! It would be really cool with the super charged L5P! 👍

Omg I love the pulling rig. I absolutely love this channel. I love how u teach everyone so much and ur so dang funny while doing it. Thank u Mr Derek and ur family for entertaining everyone the way y’all do

Beautiful dually. The sound is perfect. Man I hope that this truck will do everything you need it to do. God bless you and your family

Looks like you had a great time, I really enjoy the colored smoke. So cool, keep it up!

Coming from an electrician, when you use a christmas tree bit, wouldnt hurt to cover all them wirery wizzard boxes up with a rag to catch the shavings... them like to cunduct the sparkles and short cirkut some expencive stuff out.

Derek, I admire you. You're a mechanic with skills and you know how to drive. These things are obvious. But what impresses me most is your values set, those things that you prioritize in this life. Always be yourself Derek. You got a great family that I know you are proud of and that they're proud of you. Congratulations on your trophy, winning the championship. In my heart and mind you'll always be America's Number One Burnout! All my best always, Eric.

As critical as that ribbon cable is I would have run it through a tube to protect it...small extra effort for a very important piece! What a fantastic experience and adventure at Bristol - congratulations Derek!

Awesome, glad you won the burn out! It's a shame the Crown Vic overheated but it was still great to see. Glad the new batteries held up in Charlotte and everyone had FUN! Keep doing what you do and stay safe!

So very fun! Thanks for sharing all of the experiences. One of my very favorite channels.

Not a fan of burn outs but congrats to you. Love your channel. Keep up the builds!!

Congratulations Derek on your burnout win!! 🎉🎊🍾 Really enjoy your videos and thanks for sharing them with us.

Just finished the Roadworthy Rescues episode with the new shop truck. Looked good at the end of that episode and it looks even better with the upgrades!

Love watching these events, everyone always has a great time. Congrats on the 🏆 well deserved.

Will FOREVER be my favorite show and idol!!! This channel/family is the perfect example of the American dream and I have added to my mechanical knowledge dearly from watching VGG. So happy for Derek popping BOTH tires in TWO runs!!!

After watching the whole race you sir can drive like a mofo🤙👍🤜

Possibly the most impressive burnout I've ever seen. Congratulations !!!!

Love the new burnout truck. Would love to see a new body on it so it looks like a truck it would look really cool as a square body chevy

She might not be pretty yet but one day I see Charlotte with at least all her panels lol.. that burnout was worthy of a 🏆 and well deserved I might add.. I know we only see an hour or 2 a week but I know it's an 80 hour work week for this fella to bring us amazing content like this.. appreciate all you do for our entertainment ❤

And yes, we did see the live in-car footage and I must say A Guy looked fabulous!

Derrek said crazier than Gary Busey, and that IS crazy!! 😂😂

Thanks for all the laughs ,entertainment and nuggets of knowledge

Derek that square body is absolutely amazing 👏 😍

Derek! Another fun hour of my time! As always enjoying watching you're Channel! God bless. 😊👍👍

Awesome !👍👍👍👍😎 Congratulations on your win 🎊🎊🎊 !! I just love that Tow Rig !!!

Hy Derek, From Cookeville, we appreciate seeing Volunteer Muffler on the channel.

I love Charlotte. She's simple where she can be, complicated where she needs to be and is fit for purpose while also having a ton of personality.

The dually is awesome! Easily my favorite rig in the fleet.

That chain race look both fun and scary as hell.

As long as you had fun that's all that matters and congrats on winning the trophy

So glad you were able to bring home a trophy... I know it's been a long hard road... Happy for you all

Best. Automotive. Channel. Don't know how you do it Derek but we love you for it! Thanks for all you do.

That’s awesome. Congratulations on your first place win. Love watching you and everything you have been doing.

For the oil change on Charlotte, she seems like a GREAT candidate for the drain plug fitting that you click an adapter right into and it drains. We used those in all our tight clearance pans (usually exhaust pipes in the way) and they're a LIFE saver! Just push to click and drain with a hose.. wonderful!

Country boys always full send er' and Derek, you did amazing at just that! Keep up the great work!

I have always used Purolator filters,they are the first filter company over 100 years ago!Since 2013 Purolator has been a subsidiary of Mann+Hummel a German filter company,They also make Wix filters as well as Napa gold and Napa Platinum!So if you use any of these filters,you are getting a Great filter!!

Congrats Derek! It’s fun to see you have fun. Now go pull something out of the forget-me pile and build it.

Congratulations on winning the burnout competition, Derek!

Dude, I love duallies just like this. I need one in my life.

Hi Derek nice video 📹 and workmanship!!! Those were cool skits !!! Love the new trailer and truck 🚚!!! And the Crowns 👑

we recently bought an 87 sierra 3/4 ton from an older couple that has 76,000 ish miles on it, we took off the bed, cleaned the frame back there and replaced a couple crossmembers that were bad, with 2x4 box tube. We painted the frame under that bed and painted the rear semi float 14 bolt, freshened the up the front end and painted up there too. We pulled an 8.1 and an allison trans out of another chevy that we plan on swapping in to the 87.

Those tires did well in the burn out, popped rite on time. Thank you for the great show. G.Ingram. New Zealand.
