14 is a critical age, especially for a girl. If you uproot her entire existence (not just SRC) and move her to a foreign environment... and she's pissed off at the world... she can develop the wrong circle of friends and take a nasty turn. Same for boys. If you've got a GOOD thing going with kids in this age group, it's a good idea to not upset the apple cart.
@@n2omike i can absolutely tell you this is the truth, my family moved not even far from where I went to school during my sophomore year of high school. I ended up getting pretty depressed and anti social for almost 2 years till i pulled myself out of it.
@@Briceon always do, and I usually watch his new videos 3-4 times all the way thru along with any ads that show up so he’s getting his money’s worth from me, lol 😂
Thank you Bill for taking the time and to listen to the “LITTLE VOICE” in your head, and going by to see Mark. Thank you most of all for taking the time to talk to an impressionable 14 year old. So many kids now days don’t get listened to and it shows. You’re a class act, and that’s one reason I love your channel. Keep up the good work buddy. 😇
I truly believe the good lord made you go to A1 to meet that young lady. Hope she stays in touch with you and your family. You guys are awesome role models for the next generation, specially in this day and age. Please keep doing what y'all are doing. Y'all help more people than y'all will ever know.
I believe it was GOD'S plan for bill to stop in. You may have an idea of a plan for the day BUT during those plan's GOD interjects his plan and finesse's it. We all meet people through faith and fate
This family doesn’t just inspire “racers”, new and old, but they inspire almost anyone with a pulse! The cars and racing are what brought me to the channel years ago, but it’s the family that has kept me coming back episode after episode and the dumbfuckery between em all is just the icing on the cake!
Bill, there's a lot of folks (myself included) that really appreciate what you, Billy, Tommy, Allison, Vicki, and the whole crew of Rob, Kenny and Harley, Jeff-fa-fa, Jegs, A1, Uncle Bob, The Turd Barrels, and of course Uncle Groucho. I'm sure I've left someone out, like Paige the Duce, and I apologize. The point is, some folks remember watching every episode of their favorite tv shows as they came out, and the new generation may watch every rerun. You've all become a staple in so many lives with your knowledge and expertise in the racing field that we look forward to each new episode in each channel. Thank you!! ~~Dave
No mucking around when Uncle Rob is on the job, he had the overflow bottle all ready to go before you'd even blinked Bill. Great to see Rob again, looks like he's doing well with his recovery! Good luck to Abby and her adventures in racing, she's gonna be great!
What a wonderful young lady. I know it feels great to motivate the next generation to follow in your footsteps Bill. That's about as Blessed as a man can be. Can't wait to see that young lady rippin' down the track. Very cool of dad to pull out of that move also. She won't ever forget that. That's a helluva dad right there. Great story Bill. And that's why we love,.....The Old Mans Garage.😉💪🇺🇸💪
Such a cool story with the young girl and her Malibu, visiting Mark that day was meant to be even though you didn't need anything. Obviously she looks up to you guys.
You guys inspire old people too. I’m a 42 year old truck driver and I’m away from home 2-3 weeks at a time. I watch all the videos from the channels. Over the winter I started building a truck to drag race . I’ve still got a long ways to go. I’m basically building it by myself. The lack of time and funds has made it a slow going process. But it will eventually get done and can’t wait to put it in the beams for the first time!
Hey Jenna, that's great! Take your time, learn the right ways as you refer back to Bills videos and always pay attention to details and maintenance. Certainly today's video showed why. Taking an older vehicle and putting it on the strip requires a lot of cleaning and close inspection. Stay safe hance
Crew chief, outstanding story teller. That's what it's all about. Congratulations Bill. I'm sure ya'll have plenty of parts laying around to get her hooked.....
Small crumbs thrown at here her and there could make for some good sideline content. She seems like she's not shy, and people would probably take a liking to her. :)
Bill that’s called God putting you where you are supposed and when you’re supposed to be there. You and your family have touched so many peoples lives.
Awesome story Bill. I’m so glad you listened to the voice in you head. I’m sure it means the world to Addie and her dad that you took the time to just talk to them. You and every other high profile person in the world needs some time to just be human.
The Addy story brought tears. Your such a good man Bill. Please keep telling us about her progress. This is why I love this channel, this shit is real.
I think it’s so incredibly nice of you if you can take time out of your busy schedule to help that little girl and her dad!!! I think that’s doing gods work, to help a complete stranger.
Been watching SRC since the beginning and that S10 has won a lot of races and has been the cornerstone of SRC ! It should be in a showroom somewhere and deserves to be in Top condition, show it the love! Most of us probably wouldn't be here or you guys if not for this truck!! Billy and the S10 ride again! Thanks for all you do !! Gotta love that truck!!
That was the Good Lord above talking to you, putting you in the place you needed to be, for a life changing event to occur. I respect you and your whole family so much for taking time for the fans. Not many celebrities do that. And I know yall don't consider yourselves celebrities but in your fans eyes, that what it is. I love and respect every single one of yall🙏🙏
It's like it was meant to be, the young lady getting to meet you. That is a really cool thing that happened. I really enjoy your videos and appreciate the work that you do for everyone to watch. Everybody needs a break from time to time. Thanks for what you do.
It's so humbling when we realize how many people we have a positive impact on. I love it when a customer leaves a positive comment about our shop and how they were treated by us. We never know what effect we have on people just by being kind and the the random acts of kindness that we show to others 😊
As a long time fan, and a fellow William, I have to say that the Lord truly works in mysterious ways. I feel in my heart that it was in God's will that you made that trip to Mark's store on that day, and at that time. You are a blessing to your family, and truly to many more people than you know.God bless you and your family.
I'm going to repeat the first thing I ever said to you when the Search and Rescue K-9's and I traveled all the way from Hawai'i to National Trails Raceway to meet you and your wonderful family. Mr Hoskinson, I sure do like the way you handle yourself. You're an inspiration Sir !!! You chuckled, shook my hand and said; WHAT ??? All of the cussing and what not ??? And Miss Vicky, You and I just busted out laughing. Bill, Thank you.... For just being you. Aloha...\ooo/
Hey Bill I have an enormous amount of admiration for you and your family. You guys are truly changing lives for the best. You keep your videos true and honest with no YT drama that everyone likes to add for bait. You guys are the different breed we needed. I love watching all your videos. It brings me happiness when you get a new upload up and I get to watch it. Glad you’re starting to see how much of a fan base you have from youth to adults. We all care about your family and wish you guys nothing but blessings. Take care! -Rey
Good for her, I like hearing stories like hers. My first car I bought was a 69 SS Chevelle with a 396 I was also 14 years old. Body was clean but the motor was beat to death and it needed a full interior and wiring harness, but it was mine. After working on it for about a year, my dad and I rebuild the motor, (stock rebuild with a cam and 30 over pistons) got it running and was finishing up the interior when it got stolen and I never seen it again. Not a week goes by that I don't think of what could have been!
Anytime there are RCs involved in the videos it's always a great show. I've been waiting so patiently for a sneak peak of your trucks. You inspired me to spend $800 on a beauty a few years ago. I used to have them as a kid and love the feeling of being one again. Thanks for the awsome videos as always Bill!
Great story , sometimes things like that happen when you least expect it. Because of you and yours , this young lady and many others will lead a better life and maybe lead others to do the same.
Another great video content!! Glad the inspiration of racing is taken ahold of the next generation and happy for Addie and her father to meet you down at Mark’s!! Keep on doing what you do, we all love all the channels and the content!! #omg #src #gen2
Great to see Big Rob and Kenny back at the shop. Y`all are legends Bill, it doesn`t surprise me at all the impression y`all made on the little girl, she the next generation racers. Very cool, all the best to her, I hope she does well.
Two of the best dads in the world,the one who stayed in Ohio for his daughter and you Bill !!!! God Bless you two !!! The world needs more people like you all !!!! You're the greatest Bill , that story touched my heart ! I'm going through a divorce and had to get rid of my Gbody and all my parts. I was done ,but after hearing your story, I'm coming back !!! I will not be defeated !!!!!! God bless you sir !!(
The story about The 14yr old young lady has got to be one of the coolest stories I’ve ever heard. Thank you for sharing and congrats to her on her first car I hope all her dreams come true !!!!
bill you are a good man . keep up the great things you do . I am a racer from Dayton Ohio and i watch all your videos . you are a inspiration to many people you do not know . thank you !
That was a really great story Bill!! I've been watching SRC not from the very gegining but pretty early on and watched how Billy grew and advanced his skills driving, wrenching and tuning. It will be cool to see the younger fans get going and grow in the sport. I wish you all well and thanks for a nother great vid!!
You and your family inspire people across the board. I feel like those who have been around the block and those who are just pulling out of the driveway can get something out of everything you share with us!
Bill you are what this country needs more of. Taking the time to listen to people in a day and age when most kids have their phone stuck in front of their face tells them people out there care. Inspiring those who are coming up that hard work and faith are keys to keeping kids out of the wrong things and places. Then seeing the rewards all your family have, mainly the relationships with all the good people around you is something money and tv fame can not buy.
Bill, God Bless you. I am a Safety Manager for a construction company in California. I always talk to our employees about how our current actions dictate the actions of future generations. I think your grass roots approach to racing and the character you and your family exhibit today are going to influence the next generation of racers. So, again, God Bless you and keep you and yours safe. Looking forward to seeing it all pan out.
I have a feeling that little girls dreams are about to come true. And that she will be getting help and guidance from The old man's Garage and SRC family. You guys are awesome! And shout out to her dad for dropping everything to help make her dreams a reality.
The tale of you meeting that young lady hit me.....it gave me a creeper tear.....THAT is what it is all about. Making a difference in another person's life in a positive way. Being in the auto repair business, I get to deal with a lot of negative vibes, but when you can help a person in real need, provide a solution, and educate someone who isn't really car savvy in a way which can positively impact their life, you know you have done some good. You just reminded me of this. Thanks Bill.
Man that's great, we as adults need to realize that we always have younger eyes on us and ask ourselves what kind of examples we are or what kind of impressions we're making. Keep it up.
Pass that torch to that young lady and teach her the right way to race and be safe! You guys have inspired her to follow her dreams and you now have a responsibility to show her the way! Great story thank you for sharing your story about her!
That's what true mentorship is Bill. You don't see passionate people very often. That's a diamond in the rough. You will have a friend for life. That just goes to show how powerful a channel your team has built. Many many thanks from the gear heads out there. This day in age seems to be WHATS IN IT FOR ME, giving back has more of a reward then any money could try to by. OUTSTANDING VID.
all i have to say on this is What a real dad she has, not moving for her and helping her get her dreams come true. and than for u Bill being open to help her aswell just awesome
The good lord put you there at that time for a reason, making a difference to one person can change a lot. Love all of y’all’s content and that was my favorite part of this video
Mr. Bill, that was God working his magic to put two souls in contact with each other. Good things happen to good people. Keep doing you sir. You and your family are a huge inspiration to so many people. Take care and stay cool!!!
It's stories like that little girls that make me love this channel Bill , you have no idea how many peoples lives you and your family touch every hour of every day. Keep up the great work buddy you make this world a little more tolerable....
Hey Bill! That story you just told about the little 14 year old girl is why I don’t miss your vedio’s. I know how she feels and I am 78 year’s old and don’t miss an episode. I have two wonderful daughters that I love very much. They have both been around cars and racing all there lives. They never got into racing per say but they always loved it and helped me the time’s I did the drag racing part. Those kind of stories are the difference in your channel over anything else. A big fan of all the channels. Stay safe😀😀❤️
Bill, the way you all have touched viewers and spectators alike is golden. When you're at the tracks and take a moment to talk with children and their parents is how people should always be. Even when things have taxed your nerves, you don't push people away. Take the little girl passing out at the track and being put in the trailer until they got her back on her feet. This will be a story for her to tell for a lifetime and an example for others to model their life by. We, simple men, shine that way. Getting away from the hustle of life always bring a blessing in some form. You received a bit of that coming back with that visit from Addy and her dad. Keep up the good work, it shows in your followers. To Addy, if you and your dad read this, I think you all made a good choice. Take everything you learn to heart. This will make you an example to others youths, male and female ,alike. This will keep you focused on safety at the track and roadway when you are learning to drive. Your parent have a ways to go, this will draw you all closer, because you're spending quality time together. Be good in every way because others will be watching you. Honor your parent as you've seen them honor you. Everyone out there, Take time to make your life mean something better. The youth around us is watching what we do away from the public as well. Bill, I was laughing at you and Vicki a few days ago. If you ever wonder about grandparenthood and how you would be, watch some of you event footage. I thing you two will do just fine. Have a great day and even better weekend..
Bill, I just wanted to let you know I think what you did with that young lady and her dad was fantastic. Thank you and your family for all that you do. I'm a subscriber of all your channels. I'm 70yrs old. May God keep blessing your family. Thanks again. Papad.t.......
Bill im 31 yrs old and growing up the closets thing to any type of racing i was into was Demolition derbys and truck pulls. It was street outlaws that really got me into drag racing to the point i would actually watch it but it was Billys youtube channel that has had me hooked on racing. Watching the connection between father and son during the good great rough and bad times the two of you are just like me and my father. I want to build a car so bad i can hardly stand it. But that little girl and her dad have found the absolute best family of ppl to look up to in the sport and life. At her age with the determination she has if things work out for her to have this chance she could be the next big name in the sport some day with lots of hard work she will get there.
What a terrific story Bill. My dad would never have given up an opportunity for a better job just to satisfy a whim and desire of a young son wanting to do something different with his life. When I was 17, he asked me what my plans for the future were. I told him I wanted to be a drag racer. He told me I was crazy. We didn’t connect very well after that and drifted farther apart. He’s been gone over 20 years now, but I still resent him for what he said, and sorry to say, I don’t miss him much. But, it’s water under the bridge
Your awesome bill hell of a guy and mentor you made that little girl's day she's going to be talking about that forever buddy you should be proud of yourself give yourself a pat on the back
That's such a cool story about the little girl, I'm not anyone special but I always make time to talk with kids and show them my racecar, thier reaction and looks on thier faces are well worth it!
Bill that's awesome! You just never know how many lives you and your family and friends and crew have touched. And made a difference in people's lives. Good had a plan for you and Billy years ago when he started racing on the street and filming the content he did. I have watched you guys ever since he started. I got my wife hooked on it now. She enjoys racing with me . I raced stock eliminator for 10 years, but had to sell my racing operations for numerous reasons. I want to do it again so bad, your family has filled that void! Thank you and God Bless
Bill you truly are an amazing person and I don’t think how much you and your family impact others! I remember three years ago being at my lowest point in my life going through a divorce and having nothing I remember watching your channel and seeing billy racing his truck and for some reason brought some sort of happiness to me like nothing else mattered. So just wanted you to know that you guys help and touch people and help them more then you know hope day to meet you and Vicky and the boys to thank you in person!
Keep it up, that child isn't the only one that is captivated by all the things your family gets into. I have 2 grandsons that will watch all your videos then call me and ask questions about what ever you have said or done. Glad i watched also so i can keep up. Keep teaching you make my life a lot easier when they see you do things that i have shared with them for a long time.
You have to face the facts Bill. You, Billy and Tommy have inspired alot of people, both young and old, with your racing channels. People attending the race events only see the end result of a racing program. But with your racing channels, they are seeing the complete reality of a racing program. And what it takes to race every weekend. That is something race fans could not experience 10 years ago, even 5 years ago. I know sometimes it can be a pain trying to put out these videos when you have 37 other things on your Plate that you have to get done. But Addy and I really appreciate the content you, Billy and Tommy put out. Keep it up.
Bill , you inspired so many young people with your channels. It's good sometimes you get those moments when something tells you to go do something out of the blue. The little girl has great role models to follow and her parents are there to support her in her dreams. Thanks for sharing and have a great day👋
We have heard you talk about helping others through the channel is the goal, helping this young lady get started racing LOCALLY sounds like God has a hand in it!
Awesome story Bill and it's heart felt to know the impact one can have that seems to make all the difficult issues just fade away ! You have such a calming way about you that shows throughout your family as well. I know it's a huge task with all the channels your family have going but it's rewards like this that make it worth while !
Bill it was meant to be. Sometimes things work in strange ways without rhyme or reason. That’s just the way it is. I have had the same experiences in my life and when you get time to really think about it you will still be amazed it has happened to you. Always remember, no matter how small or insufficient it may seem to you, to someone else it is one of there biggest milestones in life. God Bless you and your family.
Bill, one day you'll be able to look back on how all the hard work you, Billy, Tommy, Allison & Mrs. Vicki have enriched and inspired the lives of your viewers in a positive way! I'm 59 and have been watching your videos intently since the beginning. It got me motivated to turn my 93 S-10 into something I was proud of. What I wouldn't give to sit down and tell you just how much you and your family have sparked inspiration in me personally. I'm jealous of the little girl as I'm sure many of us would love the chance to share our stories with you and how you have inadvertently inspired so many folks! God love you and your family my friend!
As many photos Addi has been in, it's like she was a shadow. Now she has earned some credit. The fact that Bill was not on a mission, was open to an unknown visit, was nearly perfect. Positive energy indeed. as fans, finding you at the track, leaves zero time for creating conversion. All of you are "RUclips superstars" in Nick of HH voice. SRC fam has created a movement.
The good Lord moves in so many wonderful ways. Bill, the entire Hoskinson family, and their channels have inspired so many people and this is just another great example. I, myself, can't wait until you're racing close by southern VA and I can have the pleasure of shaking your hand.
That’s a great story. Big bill. You were just supposed to be there. At that moment. You opened Up door for someone and you were there for her to se your reaction and join in on her excitement. It’s just life as it is, she chose you and your family to watch and be a part of her family too. It’s special and adorable.
I'm a factory worker for along time now .love cars still got my first car .look forward every day to watch u and ur kid's when I get home. Because of come to see u guys race at national trails it gave me the drive to get my car ready for the blue Sueda cruise at Norwalk this weekend. And I thank you.
Mr. Bill, we are all thankfull and appreciative for your dedication & devotion you put into your channel and the others. It is great that there is content out there that gets kids excited and moved to use their brains for something besides video games. For this, i am extremely thankful to you. Keep it up! But remember, work to live, dont live to work!
Bill, God puts us in the right places at the right time. You make a big impact in a lot of peoples lives. Some you see and know about others you don’t. You’re a inspiration to a lot of people!
Thanks for sharing the story about the little girl Bill..it's the small unexpected things that happen to us in life that makes us so thankful for lives we have
Just you're morals and values makes anyone want to sit down and learn and listen to all of you're family!!!! The way that you and family handled Billy's wreck was outstanding and like I've said so many times before that's what separates you from other's you don't act like you're better than other's you and the boy's don't forget we're you came from and you show that honest hard work pays off!!! You are so right you have so very much to be thankful for and so do we has you're fans we are blessed you take us with you on this amazing adventure!!! So rock on SRC family we all love and support you!!!!😀
She sounds like she's got a really cool dad as well to not sell the house and to get that Malibu for her just to keep his daughter happy pretty cool
Bill have her bring the car to the house with her dad once they get it .
14 is a critical age, especially for a girl. If you uproot her entire existence (not just SRC) and move her to a foreign environment... and she's pissed off at the world... she can develop the wrong circle of friends and take a nasty turn. Same for boys. If you've got a GOOD thing going with kids in this age group, it's a good idea to not upset the apple cart.

Watch ads all the way through if you support this channel 🤘🤙

Give it a few minutes… RUclips is being dumb, again.
Yt has been dumb for a while now. Especially related to telling the truth
Is it working yet?? Having trouble on my end.
Got it!!!
No sound may have to reload.
It’s been doing this lately where it won’t work right for about 20 minutes. I even waited 30 minutes to make it public after it loaded.

My thoughts exactly
The next generation of racers. It's a good thing to take time with the kids and let them know we see and hear them.. I'm loving Addies spirit.
So how does it feel knowing you and your family are inspiring the next generation of racers😁? Keep this roots growing 👍
This family doesn’t just inspire “racers”, new and old, but they inspire almost anyone with a pulse!
The cars and racing are what brought me to the channel years ago, but it’s the family that has kept me coming back episode after episode and the dumbfuckery between em all is just the icing on the cake!
Pretty cool for Addi to be such a big supporter of SRC,G2G and TOMG!!!
Her and her Dad gettin a malibu is great!!!!
Bill, there's a lot of folks (myself included) that really appreciate what you, Billy, Tommy, Allison, Vicki, and the whole crew of Rob, Kenny and Harley, Jeff-fa-fa, Jegs, A1, Uncle Bob, The Turd Barrels, and of course Uncle Groucho.

But it will eventually get done and can’t wait to put it in the beams for the first time!
Hey Jenna, that's great! Take your time, learn the right ways as you refer back to Bills videos and always pay attention to details and maintenance. Certainly today's video showed why. Taking an older vehicle and putting it on the strip requires a lot of cleaning and close inspection.
Stay safe

Mr Hoskinson, I sure do like the way you handle yourself. You're an inspiration Sir !!!
You chuckled, shook my hand and said; WHAT ??? All of the cussing and what not ??? And Miss Vicky, You and I just busted out laughing.
Bill, Thank you.... For just being you.
Aloha...\ooo/
Hey Bill I have an enormous amount of admiration for you and your family. You guys are truly changing lives for the best. You keep your videos true and honest with no YT drama that everyone likes to add for bait. You guys are the different breed we needed. I love watching all your videos. It brings me happiness when you get a new upload up and I get to watch it. Glad you’re starting to see how much of a fan base you have from youth to adults. We all care about your family and wish you guys nothing but blessings. Take care! -Rey
Good for her, I like hearing stories like hers. My first car I bought was a 69 SS Chevelle with a 396 I was also 14 years old. Body was clean but the motor was beat to death and it needed a full interior and wiring harness, but it was mine. After working on it for about a year, my dad and I rebuild the motor, (stock rebuild with a cam and 30 over pistons) got it running and was finishing up the interior when it got stolen and I never seen it again. Not a week goes by that I don't think of what could have been!
hate a thief. what a nightmare memory
So sorry to hear that, but what goes around, comes around!
That’s an amazing story bill I hope everything goes well for her
Appreciate all yall do for the community Bill
HEY GUYS IVE NOTICED THAT UNCLE ROB IS LOOKING GREAT 👍 SO HAPPY TO SEE HES DOIN GOOD ALSO GLAD TO SEE MR KENNY!!!!!
Anytime there are RCs involved in the videos it's always a great show. I've been waiting so patiently for a sneak peak of your trucks. You inspired me to spend $800 on a beauty a few years ago. I used to have them as a kid and love the feeling of being one again. Thanks for the awsome videos as always Bill!
Everything happens for a reason Bill! You and Addie were meant to meet and talk that day! I absolutely love hearing things like this!
ALL OF YOU GUYS ARE SUCH A INSPIRATION TO SO MANY YOUNG KIDS ITS AMAZING!! YOU GUYS SHOULD BE VERY PROUD OF YOURSELVES!!
Well Bill, your channel is all that you said you wanted it to be. Congratulations brother. You have became the drag racing teacher and a good one.
Great story , sometimes things like that happen when you least expect it. Because of you and yours , this young lady and many others will lead a better life and maybe lead others to do the same.
Keep us updated on her progress with the car. That's a great story that I'd love to hear more about....
Sounds like you got another racer for team src i love how willing you are too take the time and help the next gen of racers
Another great video content!! Glad the inspiration of racing is taken ahold of the next generation and happy for Addie and her father to meet you down at Mark’s!! Keep on doing what you do, we all love all the channels and the content!! #omg #src #gen2
Great to see Big Rob and Kenny back at the shop. Y`all are legends Bill, it doesn`t surprise me at all the impression y`all made on the little girl, she the next generation racers. Very cool, all the best to her, I hope she does well.
Two of the best dads in the world,the one who stayed in Ohio for his daughter and you Bill !!!!
God Bless you two !!! The world needs more people like you all !!!! You're the greatest Bill , that story touched my heart ! I'm going through a divorce and had to get rid of my Gbody and all my parts. I was done ,but after hearing your story, I'm coming back !!! I will not be defeated !!!!!! God bless you sir !!(
The story about The 14yr old young lady has got to be one of the coolest stories I’ve ever heard. Thank you for sharing and congrats to her on her first car I hope all her dreams come true !!!!
bill you are a good man . keep up the great things you do . I am a racer from Dayton Ohio and i watch all your videos . you are a inspiration to many people you do not know . thank you !
That was a really great story Bill!! I've been watching SRC not from the very gegining but pretty early on and watched how Billy grew and advanced his skills driving, wrenching and tuning.
It will be cool to see the younger fans get going and grow in the sport. I wish you all well and thanks for a nother great vid!!
You and your family inspire people across the board. I feel like those who have been around the block and those who are just pulling out of the driveway can get something out of everything you share with us!
Bill you are what this country needs more of. Taking the time to listen to people in a day and age when most kids have their phone stuck in front of their face tells them people out there care. Inspiring those who are coming up that hard work and faith are keys to keeping kids out of the wrong things and places. Then seeing the rewards all your family have, mainly the relationships with all the good people around you is something money and tv fame can not buy.
Bill, God Bless you. I am a Safety Manager for a construction company in California. I always talk to our employees about how our current actions dictate the actions of future generations. I think your grass roots approach to racing and the character you and your family exhibit today are going to influence the next generation of racers. So, again, God Bless you and keep you and yours safe. Looking forward to seeing it all pan out.
ABSOLUTELY the ORIGNIAL BRONCO body.
I have a feeling that little girls dreams are about to come true. And that she will be getting help and guidance from The old man's Garage and SRC family. You guys are awesome! And shout out to her dad for dropping everything to help make her dreams a reality.
The tale of you meeting that young lady hit me.....it gave me a creeper tear.....THAT is what it is all about. Making a difference in another person's life in a positive way. Being in the auto repair business, I get to deal with a lot of negative vibes, but when you can help a person in real need, provide a solution, and educate someone who isn't really car savvy in a way which can positively impact their life, you know you have done some good. You just reminded me of this. Thanks Bill.
Man that's great, we as adults need to realize that we always have younger eyes on us and ask ourselves what kind of examples we are or what kind of impressions we're making. Keep it up.
Pass that torch to that young lady and teach her the right way to race and be safe!
You guys have inspired her to follow her dreams and you now have a responsibility to show her the way!
Great story thank you for sharing your story about her!
That's what true mentorship is Bill. You don't see passionate people very often. That's a diamond in the rough. You will have a friend for life. That just goes to show how powerful a channel your team has built. Many many thanks from the gear heads out there. This day in age seems to be WHATS IN IT FOR ME, giving back has more of a reward then any money could try to by. OUTSTANDING VID.
all i have to say on this is What a real dad she has, not moving for her and helping her get her dreams come true. and than for u Bill being open to help her aswell just awesome
And with that ,That is what it is all about. Thank you Bill and The whole SRC family for what you do.
Now that little girl touched my heart! Because of her and being inspired by y'all, they are not moving. Amazing things happen for a reason my friend
The good lord put you there at that time for a reason, making a difference to one person can change a lot. Love all of y’all’s content and that was my favorite part of this video
Talk about a heart warming story, God Bless you Addy! Thank you Bill, for sharing that and thank you for what you do my friend! Much love from Ky!
Super touching life sharing story of how God "moves and grooves" with his children. No matter your age, your a child of God.
Mr. Bill, that was God working his magic to put two souls in contact with each other. Good things happen to good people. Keep doing you sir. You and your family are a huge inspiration to so many people. Take care and stay cool!!!
It's stories like that little girls that make me love this channel Bill , you have no idea how many peoples lives you and your family touch every hour of every day. Keep up the great work buddy you make this world a little more tolerable....
Hey Bill! That story you just told about the little 14 year old girl is why I don’t miss your vedio’s. I know how she feels and I am 78 year’s old and don’t miss an episode. I have two wonderful daughters that I love very much. They have both been around cars and racing all there lives. They never got into racing per say but they always loved it and helped me the time’s I did the drag racing part. Those kind of stories are the difference in your channel over anything else. A big fan of all the channels. Stay safe😀😀❤️
Bill, the way you all have touched viewers and spectators alike is golden. When you're at the tracks and take a moment to talk with children and their parents is how people should always be. Even when things have taxed your nerves, you don't push people away. Take the little girl passing out at the track and being put in the trailer until they got her back on her feet. This will be a story for her to tell for a lifetime and an example for others to model their life by. We, simple men, shine that way. Getting away from the hustle of life always bring a blessing in some form. You received a bit of that coming back with that visit from Addy and her dad. Keep up the good work, it shows in your followers.
To Addy, if you and your dad read this, I think you all made a good choice. Take everything you learn to heart. This will make you an example to others youths, male and female ,alike. This will keep you focused on safety at the track and roadway when you are learning to drive. Your parent have a ways to go, this will draw you all closer, because you're spending quality time together. Be good in every way because others will be watching you. Honor your parent as you've seen them honor you. Everyone out there, Take time to make your life mean something better. The youth around us is watching what we do away from the public as well.
Bill, I was laughing at you and Vicki a few days ago. If you ever wonder about grandparenthood and how you would be, watch some of you event footage. I thing you two will do just fine. Have a great day and even better weekend..
Bill, I just wanted to let you know I think what you did with that young lady and her dad was fantastic. Thank you and your family for all that you do. I'm a subscriber of all your channels. I'm 70yrs old. May God keep blessing your family. Thanks again. Papad.t.......
Bill im 31 yrs old and growing up the closets thing to any type of racing i was into was Demolition derbys and truck pulls. It was street outlaws that really got me into drag racing to the point i would actually watch it but it was Billys youtube channel that has had me hooked on racing. Watching the connection between father and son during the good great rough and bad times the two of you are just like me and my father. I want to build a car so bad i can hardly stand it. But that little girl and her dad have found the absolute best family of ppl to look up to in the sport and life. At her age with the determination she has if things work out for her to have this chance she could be the next big name in the sport some day with lots of hard work she will get there.
What a terrific story Bill. My dad would never have given up an opportunity for a better job just to satisfy a whim and desire of a young son wanting to do something different with his life. When I was 17, he asked me what my plans for the future were. I told him I wanted to be a drag racer. He told me I was crazy. We didn’t connect very well after that and drifted farther apart. He’s been gone over 20 years now, but I still resent him for what he said, and sorry to say, I don’t miss him much. But, it’s water under the bridge
We would call that a God thing Mr. Bill. The Lord is using you & the boys to be a light to so many. God Bless you and yours.
Your awesome bill hell of a guy and mentor you made that little girl's day she's going to be talking about that forever buddy you should be proud of yourself give yourself a pat on the back
isn't it cool that you are just a regular drag racing family and you are touching so many people with your content and inspiring others.
That's such a cool story about the little girl, I'm not anyone special but I always make time to talk with kids and show them my racecar, thier reaction and looks on thier faces are well worth it!
Little truck just needs some love! Ole girl has done its job time and time again but you guys will get it fixed!
Bill that's awesome! You just never know how many lives you and your family and friends and crew have touched. And made a difference in people's lives. Good had a plan for you and Billy years ago when he started racing on the street and filming the content he did. I have watched you guys ever since he started. I got my wife hooked on it now. She enjoys racing with me . I raced stock eliminator for 10 years, but had to sell my racing operations for numerous reasons. I want to do it again so bad, your family has filled that void! Thank you and God Bless
Bill you truly are an amazing person and I don’t think how much you and your family impact others! I remember three years ago being at my lowest point in my life going through a divorce and having nothing I remember watching your channel and seeing billy racing his truck and for some reason brought some sort of happiness to me like nothing else mattered. So just wanted you to know that you guys help and touch people and help them more then you know hope day to meet you and Vicky and the boys to thank you in person!
That’s awesome about the young girl. Good job sir.
Your family has had an influence on many people.
Just watching I feel like family.
Wish you all the best.
Keep it up, that child isn't the only one that is captivated by all the things your family gets into. I have 2 grandsons that will watch all your videos then call me and ask questions about what ever you have said or done. Glad i watched also so i can keep up. Keep teaching you make my life a lot easier when they see you do things that i have shared with them for a long time.
You have to face the facts Bill. You, Billy and Tommy have inspired alot of people, both young and old, with your racing channels. People attending the race events only see the end result of a racing program. But with your racing channels, they are seeing the complete reality of a racing program. And what it takes to race every weekend. That is something race fans could not experience 10 years ago, even 5 years ago. I know sometimes it can be a pain trying to put out these videos when you have 37 other things on your Plate that you have to get done. But Addy and I really appreciate the content you, Billy and Tommy put out. Keep it up.
An angel was sent to you seeking advice. That is very cool. ❤❤👌👌
Bill , you inspired so many young people with your channels. It's good sometimes you get those moments when something tells you to go do something out of the blue. The little girl has great role models to follow and her parents are there to support her in her dreams. Thanks for sharing and have a great day👋
We have heard you talk about helping others through the channel is the goal, helping this young lady get started racing LOCALLY sounds like God has a hand in it!
Awesome story Bill and it's heart felt to know the impact one can have that seems to make all the difficult issues just fade away ! You have such a calming way about you that shows throughout your family as well. I know it's a huge task with all the channels your family have going but it's rewards like this that make it worth while !
Bill it was meant to be. Sometimes things work in strange ways without rhyme or reason. That’s just the way it is. I have had the same experiences in my life and when you get time to really think about it you will still be amazed it has happened to you. Always remember, no matter how small or insufficient it may seem to you, to someone else it is one of there biggest milestones in life. God Bless you and your family.
Nice to see Kenny
Bill, one day you'll be able to look back on how all the hard work you, Billy, Tommy, Allison & Mrs. Vicki have enriched and inspired the lives of your viewers in a positive way! I'm 59 and have been watching your videos intently since the beginning. It got me motivated to turn my 93 S-10 into something I was proud of. What I wouldn't give to sit down and tell you just how much you and your family have sparked inspiration in me personally. I'm jealous of the little girl as I'm sure many of us would love the chance to share our stories with you and how you have inadvertently inspired so many folks! God love you and your family my friend!
Great content Bill 2 fine excellent Dad's meet at the staging line of a little Princess's racing career 👍❤🙏✌
As many photos Addi has been in, it's like she was a shadow. Now she has earned some credit. The fact that Bill was not on a mission, was open to an unknown visit, was nearly perfect. Positive energy indeed. as fans, finding you at the track, leaves zero time for creating conversion. All of you are "RUclips superstars" in Nick of HH voice. SRC fam has created a movement.
Good on you sir helping this little girl. Makes me happy to see you help others.
The good Lord moves in so many wonderful ways. Bill, the entire Hoskinson family, and their channels have inspired so many people and this is just another great example. I, myself, can't wait until you're racing close by southern VA and I can have the pleasure of shaking your hand.
That’s a great story. Big bill. You were just supposed to be there. At that moment. You opened Up door for someone and you were there for her to se your reaction and join in on her excitement. It’s just life as it is, she chose you and your family to watch and be a part of her family too. It’s special and adorable.
I'm a factory worker for along time now .love cars still got my first car .look forward every day to watch u and ur kid's when I get home. Because of come to see u guys race at national trails it gave me the drive to get my car ready for the blue Sueda cruise at Norwalk this weekend. And I thank you.
See guys. You touch a lot more people than you think!!! Just keep being who you are and thank you for sharing your life with all of us
Bill you and your family inspire and light a fire under alot of us. Thank you for all you do. This my sound strange but you change lives
Mr. Bill, we are all thankfull and appreciative for your dedication & devotion you put into your channel and the others. It is great that there is content out there that gets kids excited and moved to use their brains for something besides video games. For this, i am extremely thankful to you. Keep it up! But remember, work to live, dont live to work!
Bill, God puts us in the right places at the right time. You make a big impact in a lot of peoples lives. Some you see and know about others you don’t. You’re a inspiration to a lot of people!
Thanks for sharing the story about the little girl Bill..it's the small unexpected things that happen to us in life that makes us so thankful for lives we have
Bill the story with the girl was very touching. Thank you made my day.
Just you're morals and values makes anyone want to sit down and learn and listen to all of you're family!!!! The way that you and family handled Billy's wreck was outstanding and like I've said so many times before that's what separates you from other's you don't act like you're better than other's you and the boy's don't forget we're you came from and you show that honest hard work pays off!!! You are so right you have so very much to be thankful for and so do we has you're fans we are blessed you take us with you on this amazing adventure!!! So rock on SRC family we all love and support you!!!!😀
Awesome story about the little girl and dad! Glad the truck is getting some updates. Will be back better than ever soon!
