Appreciate the good words to the kid in the monolog afterwards. Probably wanted to rip his head off getting out of the car, that night, and when you open up the checkbook to get back going again. But the class when you were editing is what I love about the channel. Appreciate you as a person
I hope this results in a rules change, before someone gets killed. No way a responsible parent puts their 13 year old in a car at this level. I don't even think 14 is old enough, it should be at least 16 if not older.
Anybody could’ve made that mistake regardless of age saying that just cause he’s a kid that’s why it happened. No racing happens. They used up too much corner exit. Everybody has done that at one point.
Glad to see you are ok. That was a hard lick. Just like you said, looks like he moved up and squeezed you out of room. I love how all your cars have names. Once you name them, they become part of the family. I have two, E.T. and Stitch.
Landon, , you are exactly what's wrong with today's era of NASCAR, you are probably one of the BEST drivers out there but then u have these kids that come along with unlimited funding, watched Talledega nights once and begged mommy to get daddy to go throw some money around so he could look cool in front of his buddies...I really hope u get a genuine opportunity to drive for a great team , it's an absolute joy to watch u wheel that car around the track!
Dude he literally said the kid wins many races and is talented and he has respect for him. Plus I know how it feels to be a kid and race powerful racecars, it’s not easy. Plus a 13 year old does not usually have a spotter. He might not have been aware that landon was still there. And the kid doesn’t have unlimited money, he has hard working parents who work their butts off just to get him on the track and see him happy, if your mad at that then don’t become a father
So happy you're okay Landon. Keep your head up man your luck will turn around. Holy heck I've never seen that much damage to a latemodel. Keep your head up man. Proud of you and your whole team.
That was a helluva hit. First off I hope you're okay. I figured you would be feeling some soreness several days after that. I swear if you didn't have bad luck, you wouldn't have any luck at all. Keep your head up brother, youll shake that black cloud following you around right now. Can't see a rainbow without facing a little rain.
When I got started, I already had a healthy respect for drivers, cars, and what it takes to get them out onto a track. I didn't get into a 4-cylinder car until I was 22, and that was after several years of helping the old man with his sprint car. Good to hear you're okay, man. Keep digging!
I know this was a rough one for you but I needed this today. I’m sitting here watching the rain pour down waiting for the inevitable post from Langley speedway saying the races tonight are cancelled. Wish you the best of luck getting that monster back up and running
It really was a bad deal. Standing at the entrance to 3 I had a clear picture, and I was so relieved to see your window net drop. He just had to much foot in the gas coming off to make it out 2 wide. At 13 he is a good driver, but made a bad choice, and sadly you paid the price for it. There is maturity for him yet to be formed, and hopefully this will be a part of that formation for the future. I know you understand the growing and maturing part. Over the last few years I have watched you grow at great strides in these 2 areas, and this will just be another part of your process. So thankful you were not hurt, and also thankful that your journey is not over. Always remember that character is formed in the challenging times, and a good character is far more valuable than any plastic trophy. Keep digging my friend.
It was nice to see some good speed again. I know yall will keep finding speed and keep digging. Terrible way to end the night, but I'm glad you're okay
If they want to run at 13, then they should pay for the damage to other cars. A fair trade-off for the experience they're getting, I would think. Keep up the hard work, Mr. The Huffman Racing 🏁
Damn that sucks, people just forget how to race sometimes. You’re a hell of a driver and I bet you come back stronger, and I never got a chance to thank you for the race in iRacing I got with you!
I think the big issue with younger kids is they just don’t teach paitence which is huge in any form of Racing, , but I have to say this is one of your best videos in terms of racing editing, I thoroughly enjoyed the thing until I didn’t keep it up good luck
First off glad you’re ok. I don’t see things changing as far as young drivers that are not even old enough to get a Drivers license except for it coasting Daddy money I’m sure I’ll get flack over what I said but ask me if I give a Damn.
First off, I’m glad to see that you’re ok. Second, you got used up. That was a knarly hit. I agree, there needs to be age limits in the weekly series. It’s a shame to see tore up equipment as a result. It takes one race to get back on top and turn around a season.
Always Love your videos man! I live in mooresville so might have to come see you race at hickory sometime! I always wonder about liability when things like this happen cause I have seen 3 of your cars totaled since i have been watching. So is there like a waiver or something that is signed that says that if you are taken out like this there is no damages that can be paid to you? Because not only were you pretty much just ran right into the wall but it was by a 13 year old no less who has skill from what I saw but still lacks the control needed to not destroy cars when they have no concept of how expensive racing is. Like can you get anything in damages from the family? Cause you are out a full car from what it looked like or are you just SOL
LANDON YOU SIR ARE A CLASS ACT👍💞🤗💞And I'm sure that young man who wrecked you, didn't do it intentionally and I'm sure he was upset at himself for being the cause of this wreck and for you to give him encouragement after destroying 2 beautiful fast race cars shows what a class act you are. I'm so thankful that you are okay because that was a nasty hard hit you took. PRAISE GOD FOR THE SAFETY EQUIPMENT AND THE AWESOME ROLLCAGE DOING IT'S JOB🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR PRECIOUS FAMILY AND YOUR PRECIOUS CREW AND THE YOUNG MAN WHO CAUSED THE WRECK🙏🏻I PRAY HE LEARNS FROM THIS EXPENSIVE LESSON THAT HE IS MORE CAREFUL IN THE FUTURE 🙏🏻YOU HAVE A NEW FAN FOR LIFE🙏🏻💞🤗💞🙏🏻🙏🏻🏁🏆🏁BEST SPORT ON THE PLANET 🏁🏆🏁
This may be the dad in me coming out, but I would have talked to his father and had him come over and inspect the damage. Would have made it a teachable moment as to why you need to be careful.
@@coreyh233 You may not have claimed to but you were talking like you have experience in such things. Maybe if you did you would realize how ridiculous your comment is. The teaching moment came when his car washed up the track and made contact with the other car. After 33 years of racing stock cars, I can assure you that everyone who has ever raced stock cars has had that particular teaching moment.
That sucks man you had a good solid run going and got cleaned out. Hope y'all can fix the car hopefully it's not as bad as it looks keep diggin. Clay from mobile Alabama
Hard racing at the end! He for sure squeezed him......but something is way off with these cars this year he was in the way at the end and got ran over!
Dammit ,glad you're ok.Hard to believe that happened.Bottom line you drove the wheels off the old girl,raced hard and raced clean , got caught up in someone elses mistakes.Keep your head up and your right foot down.
Landon bubba you was Rollin man I wish we could see you at Nashville or highland rim speedway witch is veterans motor Plex now that's the tracks I raced at
That really sucks bro. Your other car 'Looks' faster and smoother. But can't deny the facts...this car flies. Good luck getting her back together. That was a NASTY hit.
In my opinion 13 is to young to be racing this division he looks like he can drive but his maturity to make the right decisions is not there yet sorry this happened to you and your car glad you are ok but sucks that this happened at your expense
No drivers permit , no driving a stock car ! Any class. Need to stay down in the lower divisions. His pops needs to mail you some $$$$. Keep at it , it will turn around. My prediction, you’re winning everything this fall !!!!
Wow that looked worse in the car than the videos outside the car. Wow the 77 car was up on the window Sill of a street car. No wonder it took the roof off. Then the hit from the back. I'm going oh my back. Lol
It's crazy that I Racing has a more stringent system in place that you have to progress through and build up licenses before you can move up to Late Models and higher classes and it cost's no one in a wreck. To me you should have to be 16 to even run Limited's and 18 to run Late Model's or Pro Late Models. I know it won't ever change unless something tragic happens and they kill someone, and it may not even change then. There's a reason you can't get a license until you're 16 and it's not skill based it's more of a maturity thing.
Well at first I thought Ronnie Basset Jr was going to dump you. I feel like Krantz wanted that extra money whatever it took to get it which was pinning you in the wall unfortunately. I couldn’t agree more that kids that young should not be in a late model car, just isn’t safe in the least. I have lost all respect for Darren and his family! The way his mother showed her ass in the stands after he trashed your car. Bad enough she was escorted out of the gate by the officers. I know the officers and was speaking with them after and the Dad came up to the officers while I was talking to them and tried to get more shit started against you. The Dad looked up and seen I had your hat on and kinda froze up 😂. Anyway just glad you’re not hurt and able to move on. Good Luck at Wilkes!
WOW - that was some mean hit... Please take this as me trying to make some constructive observations. Your car had the legs to be able to stay in front but the setup seemed to be such that you could NOT comfortably stay down in the bottom groove when you had to. Running mainly in the one up from bottom groove meant that you were vulnerable to being attacked from the bottom groove and from what I could see, that is what happened EVERY TIME. When you got taken out by the kid, he was on the bottom, saw a gap and took the chance. Well, his "chance" put you into the wall. This would not have happened if your hotrod was able to run low because he would have had to try take you on the outside and when he got loose, he would have hit the wall all on his own. I never saw ANYONE pass you on the outside or even make a serious challenge on the outside. But up until that point it looked like a really exciting race - so congratulations on that. Just a pity about the final outcome. Hope that you and your team recover quickly because that blue machine is capable of big things in my opinion.
Appreciate the good words to the kid in the monolog afterwards. Probably wanted to rip his head off getting out of the car, that night, and when you open up the checkbook to get back going again. But the class when you were editing is what I love about the channel. Appreciate you as a person

I totally agree 15 is borderline but younger than that no way
Racing a kart at 13 is one thing. Racing a late model at 13 is so much different. Ridiculous
Anybody could’ve made that mistake regardless of age saying that just cause he’s a kid that’s why it happened. No racing happens. They used up too much corner exit. Everybody has done that at one point.
@@swiqft5529 You are absolutely correct. The kid was good enough to be running up front. 13 or 30 sometimes the car will get away from you.
@@swiqft5529 no you can't put enough emphasis on experience
Compelling In Car shots. Really shows how hard you are working. You can't tell from the grandstand how you are all at the edge of control.
Glad to see you are ok. That was a hard lick. Just like you said, looks like he moved up and squeezed you out of room. I love how all your cars have names. Once you name them, they become part of the family. I have two, E.T. and Stitch.
Its ironic this happens at Tri County who is now allowing Barnes Crum to drive again. I am surprised she has fans or sponsors after last year.
Man that was a Crazy crash . The way the Car Exploded was Nuts . Hope you're okay .. Keep on Hammering away the season Will turn soon ..

Glad you’re ok and spoken like a true champion. That’s why I come to your channel and watch. Smokem if you gottem. RJ’s the man.
Very impressed with your attitude regarding the wreck.
Keep digging Landon! Only way to go is up!
So happy you're okay Landon. Keep your head up man your luck will turn around. Holy heck I've never seen that much damage to a latemodel. Keep your head up man. Proud of you and your whole team.

Keep your head up brother, youll shake that black cloud following you around right now. Can't see a rainbow without facing a little rain.
Age limits!!! These kids need to go run Legends cars at Charlotte and 4 cyl races at Bowman Gray before they get in these Late Model Series.
Please don’t send that little piss ant kid with more money than sense to Bowman Gray. Thanks lol
I run 4cyls and 100% maybe nascar would have talent over money if they inforced this. Talent would be shown and more respect would be given.
@@jrracingteam1732wtf does nascar have to do with besides it being a aap weekly series race most likely

Good to hear Phil Combs announcing!
Dammmmn!!! So glad you were not zapped . I love the in car footage. Keep Keeping On. Landon.
I know this was a rough one for you but I needed this today. I’m sitting here watching the rain pour down waiting for the inevitable post from Langley speedway saying the races tonight are cancelled. Wish you the best of luck getting that monster back up and running

Good to see you running up front again! Good hard racing!
Sorry for your loss. Glad you are ok. Go team Huffman.
That UHaul truck inside Turn 3 gets me every time
That was some good racing. Glad you're ok.
Love seeing you run up front finally! I knew you had it in you. Now to get that other car to run like that one.
You are still a very exciting driver. i have never seen a roof torn off before.. I hope you are well.. Cheers
Class act as always.
Nasty looking wreck glad your ok very classy at the end
If they want to run at 13, then they should pay for the damage to other cars. A fair trade-off for the experience they're getting, I would think.
Keep up the hard work, Mr. The Huffman Racing 🏁
Yea no you need to look at how much that would cost and think again. Also doesn’t make sense at all
Damn that sucks, people just forget how to race sometimes. You’re a hell of a driver and I bet you come back stronger, and I never got a chance to thank you for the race in iRacing I got with you!
Glad you’re ok!
Great response let's gooooooo 🏁🏁🏁
Holy shit, glad you're alright. That was a gnarly one.
I am glad you are ok
That sucks...but keep going...you are doing great things! 😎
Thank god ur ok man. Tri County better look into a new rule on driver age/experience at that track.
Head down keep digging don’t let up it’s what we do
I think the big issue with younger kids is they just don’t teach paitence which is huge in any form of Racing, , but I have to say this is one of your best videos in terms of racing editing, I thoroughly enjoyed the thing until I didn’t keep it up good luck

Glad you're okay. Y'all take care
Enjoyed the live coverage. Hope to see more. Sucx to have a car destroyed with dumb moves from impatience
Man, y'all can't catch a break. Hope you get better luck soon.
Damn that was brutal. Glad you’re ok
Glad your ok but I don't agree with anyone with out a regular drivers License allowed to Race great team love the Channel
So glad you're OK keep digging Wheelman.
Super Glad you're okay. Damn the rotten luck!
Aw man that sucks 😢
Ouch ! Glad you’re ok can’t say to much for the car .
Hopefully the center section is salvageable. Looks like front and rear clips are toast. Glad you are ok.

How do you get the radio audio to put in your videos? I'm trying to do the same at Bowman-Gray Speedway

Glad you are ok, to echo other comments, I think 13 is too young for a late model. Hope you can get the car back up and running soon.
God damn man glad you are alright
man glad to hear your ok what a hit.
Your car looks like from what I see your dialed in keep everything safe
Is this a bigger trailer?
That was scary to watch from the live stream bud I hope you get the monkey off your back soon!! Watch for squirrels 🐿️

Are you okay Landon when you want to take me out to eat LOL
huge crash, hope you are okay was not your fault
I'm sorry if i missed it, but who is the 13yo???
Totaled like it’s insured lol

That crash is a yikes. That was a close one. Also, Late Model convertible, anyone
Keep fighting! I get it, the cars are your 'kids' in a little shop. Broke my heart, too.
Aw man, second race was strong until that moment!
Sometimes you gotta take the bad with the bad
He straight drove you in ...plain and simple that was deliberate
I don’t think it was intentional, just a mistake!

I hope he learns his lesson soon. One day he will be 18 always remember that when driving wild young. Lol
Who's the kid that did it?
Glad you are okay. Agree with you on age limit. Should be at least 16 or older.
If he had of been grown that’s a fight. I might have a hard time not fighting daddy. That’s hard to swallow
There’s a reaction to every action…
