I was in the stands cheering you on and it all happened so fast! I didn’t realize I had jumped from my seat to the front aisle and I was on my knees praying. When they announced you were ok there was this relief and realization that I was indeed out of my seat. All I heard..” is that your boy?” I said no but I’m a mama and I’ll claim him. Growing up in a race family and having no local drivers of our own anymore, I’ll indeed keep cheering you on. I’m glad you made it back out for the rest of the weekend, even though it was a tough one. You are well on your way up! I look forward to your next race.
Thank you for your support! I appreciate the concern and that you were hoping the best for our team. Also great you saw us come back on Saturday!
Watched this several times. At 1/4 speed too. There wasn't a dang thing you could have done to avoid hitting him. That's a fact Tanner. I know that isn't what you want to hear or ever do , but it's racing. Things are happening so fast. Your line of sight is limited. If you had a super power to see into the future sure you could have avoided it. Not the case. On a brighter note. I watch the way you drive. I watch it regular speed and slowed down. You are getting much more comfortable with it all. You are not "wheeling" the car anywhere near as much. Your steering wheel inputs are much better, more precise ,and smoother. I'd call it less panic steering, where you just are sawing at the wheel with no idea what is happening. You guys are dialing in the set up to allow you a better feel for what the car wants and needs. You are also improving on just HOW to handle the car. The year hasn't produced the results you'd like , true. I think stay positive , appreciate the gains you have made and keep on keepin' on. No doubt you belong. You CAN do this. Be patient Grasshopper ,it just takes time and patients.
Same
Bad, bad deal Kiddo. I knew you'd be shaken up, so decide to not come back to the pits that night. Glad Austen is on the road to recovery. Watched a few different vids of the wreck and there wasn't anything you could have done. So don't beat yourself up on that.
This video Is a big middle finger to all the haters who where talking smack and I love it! Glad your all ok! Can't wait to see you running with them guys full time!!
? Huh...what you mean Benji/Tex
@@sidebite2533 there was just a whole bunch of trolls on other videos I seen saying he was a bad driver and could of easily avoided the crash and this video just proves Kyle Larson him self couldn't of missed that!!
I was thinking the same thing. Nowhere to go, and happened in a hurry. The other video didn’t do any justice to how fast it unfolded and his blocked view. I have been waiting to see this angle.
Oh, man! As you said he appeared out of nowhere. I knew it was going to happen yet it still took me by surprise. I am glad you are okay and praying for Austen's recovery.
Tanner I want to say that you have great skills driving and I know you would NEVER intentionally hit or wreck anyone and as hard as you hope and pray there are wrecks that happen that are unavoidable and this was definitely unavoidable!! I'm proud of you for being concerned about your fellow driver and in you think your hit was hard, your competitor took 3 hard hits and I commend you on your concern for your fellow competitor and for keeping him in your prayers 🙏 That speaks volumes on what a wonderful human being you are. This truly was an unavoidable racing accident. They happen. Hang in there and keep praying and you will succeed not only in racing but in life. 👍😁🤗❤️🙏 Keep being you because you are awesome 😎🤗❤️🙏
Tanner, That was a very hard hit. That is what is properly called a racing incident. That hit could be measured in many if not in tens of G-Force. I was amazed you came back the day after.
Tough hit bud, glad you are feeling ok after that. I stayed up and watched the racing all weekend. Glad it finished up well for you guys.
Skagit is always a tight track anyway...Gald everyone is ok. This is the 1st time I have seen in car footage from there...Very cool!
You did a great job at Skagit. The hits were costly and unpleasant but you came back and got into the top 15 on Saturday. Skagit is notorious for hard crashes because it is such high speed. You are getting a lot of laps in, you have good equipment, you are learning to setup and fix the car -- it's all part of racing. Sure wish I had gone up to the race. Hopefully the Hip National Bank has you covered -- wings and axles aren't cheap.
Patience is key. Just keep it hammered and work em in the turns. You and Carly will be huge on the circuit someday, God Bless!!
damn dude you've had a tough couple races. saying this post dirt cup. it'll turn around, if it was easy everyone would do it. just keep it moving buddy
Dude. Do NOT feel like that was your fault at all. You could have done absolutely nothing to avoid that crash. Glad you are ok and that Austen is alive. Scary stuff. Your luck will turn around. Just keep pressing forward!
wow, glad to see that you are ok tanner. My thoughts and prayers for the other driver and a speedy and healthy recovery for him. You will probably be soar which is normal when your in a car wreck. If you start not feeling good always seek medical attention. But you look good , i could tell you were soar. i would just take it easy. good luck for night #2. You got this and you can do it.
Scary crash. Angels were riding with both you and Austin.
Man, tired of the crummy luck you are having. It will all come good eventually because you and your team/family are overcoming all these red sea moments. Glad you did not bag it for the weekend, will show your competitors you guys mean business and have a high level of mental/physical toughness, cannot wait to see it.
I was worried about both of you. I'm glad you came through it as well as you did.
Tanner I am not sure what other views you have seen of the accident, but Austin ended up like that after getting clipped Kerry Madsen. And it was interesting seeing how little time you had to react. From turn 4 your view didn't look that bad. But in car...................you really had no hope of avoiding that.
Brother, it's amazing you aren't concussed. Glad you are up and talking! (And racing!)
Man it’s been a tough year for you man,you’ll get a break soon and nothing you could do there glad you walked away wicked hit
I was at my camp watching you on my data 3 nights in a row! No wifi in sight! Lol! You were bad fast every night qualifying! Sucks really bad you got caught up in these accidents! But was awesome to see you came back every night and finally got to finish the big feature !
crazy hard hit, congrats to your team getting you out there for night 2
Dang dude that was a hard hit and happened so fast glad you guys are okay!
Glad both of you are OK.
You had nowhere to go....
These videos help your "mental" state, by talking about it and moving on.......Keep positive and don't look back....Take care, T
Good luck for races to come and a possible 1st win of 22
I've been waiting & waiting for this..........
Watched on flo and I was so sad for you all weekend but sooo happy to see you all keep trying and coming back!
That's Sprint car racing. It's all fun and games and in an instance it can become heart attack serious. So glad to see your okay thank GOD. I watched on a TH-cam and have been looking for your posting. I was worried. I don't know if you remember me. I was the guy that removed the broken bolt in Carly's car at Elma.
Glad you are ok that was a hard hit damn you just can’t catch a break this season keep it rolling Tanner be safe
Tanner your a class act things happen very fast in a sprint car keep up the good work hits like that hurt but don't let it change you get back up on the wheel
In the racing world wrecks happen I've been at two different tracks when 2 drivers were fatally injured and last night I was at Lebanon Valley Speedway for a 44 lap feature.Before the first lap was completed a driver named L.J. Lombardo on the front row was running side by side going down the backstretch Lombardo pinched the guy on the outside into the wall causing a end over end flip all the big block modifieds on the front were involved except Lombardo who caused massive amounts of damage taking out half the field. A bad call of L.V. officials allowed Lombardo to continue but happy to announce no one was injured surprisingly!!! Eventhough machinery and metal were flying all over the place causing officials to be running all over the place and sirens screaming it was the worst crash I've seen at L.V. since the last crash in the same area where another driver was killed many years ago. I was there also. When the crash started I preyed Lord Jesus protect them. Thankfully race cars have become much safer through the years.
Glad you're okay...Prayers for Austin..
Glad to see that you're ok Tanner.
Thank you for posting such great content. I am super happy to see you are OK and I wish you all the best. I look forward to seeing some W's this season - keep at it.
Glad yall both ok tough hit
Thanks for sharing. Glad your ok 🙏🙏🙏for Austin. I learned a lot from watching your video. Whole different prospective.
I for some reason late in the feature got down from my seat and walked over to the pit fence right infront of 3. It just so happened that that was the restart right before the crash. I remember being worried for austin after seeing him get shoved towards the pit entrance wall pretty much dead on and before I could even process what just fully happened I saw your car come out of no where and hit him. The youtube channel
Cali Dirt Video caught wreck on camera from a really good angle and you could see me react to each hit seperately. I couldnt believe what I witnessed I really thought austin was seriously hurt, so glad you and him are fine. Can't believe austin didnt get a concussion in all of that
Racing with the big boys up north.
I'm glad your ok I follow you from oklahoma bud you have talent keep your head down I use to run to age got me I'm 60 but I love watching you run thank you
That was a hard one, Tanner. Hard in many ways. Hard crash for, hard crash for Austin. But it was a racing thing. There was no way you could have avoided it. Things will turn around for you, I'm sure.
No matter the talent, you have some race luck ! I PRAY for you an all the drivers that I fallow ! I PRAY the other driver is ok an will have a full recovery ! I knew that was bad !
GOD BLESS !!!
Hang in there , awesome that you got right back in the car for nights 2and 3.
Young man, it wasnt stun, it was actually shock...ur system took one helluva shock and it took a while to get u out of it.
i had seen this a few days ago on another blurb, and it had updates as well on the other driver.
we are all glad you are ok...and we are all praying for the other driver as well.
Glad y'all are ok .in the video the second before your accident the lights were green you did nothing wrong . Keep up the heard work y'all put in ..
You are wearing rider racing engines shirt and he’s a good friend of mine!,,, glad your ok Tanner that was one hell of a hit!!!!
Brutal Hit Tanner glad you are ok & also Austin ,
Man I felt that one from this side of the screen. I hope that you guys can keep giving us updates on Austin as you get them. I have to say though one of the things that I love about midget and sprint cars is how safe they are. When you can hit and get hit that hard a still survive that is a great thing. I'm glad to see that you Tanner are ok and will obviously continue to get better on your way back to being 100 percent. I'm curious how does your family react and handle you being in wrecks like that? Thank you for sharing this video with us. Have fun take care
My mom struggles with it for sure. The wrecks are scary for sure, and it stuns them just as much as me. Will maybe talk about something in a video about that.
And Austen is recovering still. He has a road ahead of him, but is expected to heal.
@@TannerHolmes I thought so. I met my best friends from my childhood in Lemore, Ca. At the Lemore jet bowl. Not sure if it's still called that lol. Anyways their uncle raced full Midgets when we met them. Fast forward to many years later at Madera it's a 1/3mi. paved track their uncle got into one heck of a bad accident with flips and the whole 9yards I remember my mom think thinking that we needed to get his mom away from where she could see what was going on directly. Boy she was scared as hell that one of her babies was hurt real bad. But after a little bit the announcement was as made that his was ok and obviously going to be taken to Madera General hospital for further evaluation. Needless to say we all breathed a heck of a lot easier hearing that. Of course his parents went to the hospital while the rest of the team gathered up the car and the gear and headed back to Fresno where we all lived. He came out all ok though.
@@TannerHolmes that might be cool to get her take on the rough times in racing either directly from her or through you
Very glad to hear you're ok man; it was definitely a big hit. Visibility certainly doesn't look the greatest from your camera and its up higher than your viewpoint. I have been told a lack of visibility is the hardest thing involved when racing sprintcars from drivers. Also on a lighter note; it's more repairs for you guys. You and your old man will be able to centre the diff by eye soon 👌😁 These things are part and parcel of motor racing unfortunately. Its very impressive to see the amount of effort and time that smaller teams put in to racing; gotta take my hat off to you guys. Keep on racing and I hope you will do a video of the car strip down to assess the damage (like past videos). What months of the year is your typical season of sprintcar racing btw?
yes visibility is huge in racing. little things can change your whole look in the car
man that was fast, no time to react at all.
glad your ok
nasty crash as the popular saying goes wrecking is racing or something like that nothing you could do
When I saw the crash I was concerned about you and the other driver but i recognized your car right away and it I think like many other it was well scary I am just glad you both are ok I wont give away how you di in the race
Skagit was a home track to me although I never raced we lived in Surrey, BC which is just across the Canadian border so this was one of the tracks we went to alot. Funny thing is we found it because of the rest area on I-5 nearby we could hear race cars on a Saturday night I forget where we even were going but we went to the track and enjoyed it many times after I meet and have a picture of Kasey Kahnes sprint car
Scary hit for thr both of you. Hope everyone is ok.
That wreck was like a jump scare
glad you are ok Tanner,that was a tough one
Since PA Speedweek is going on right now. Would you ever run it?
Wow so glad ur ok man
as a driver I love the foot cam. Might have to do that on my car too
foot cam's are valuable!
Glad to see you made it through that....wow.
You gotta get your car blessed and shake that bad juju off.
Sheesh that happened quickly
that looked like it hurt
Sorry your mom and pops had to deal with that also. It’s racing that’s what you do. Glad you can get back on the horse the next day. I think better than having to wait a week.
That was a bad hit. We are glad you both are OK. Wishing you both the best.
I Love raceing
For those looking for the moment wanting to see just the clip, start at 12:25 Still watch the whole video though
Tanner, I dreaded you having to do this video and reliving the accident. I found Austen Wheatleys very brave update early the next morning out of concern...for both of you. But I am not a driver, only a fan so no encouragement cliché', platitudes or euphemisms from me. God bless you both.
T & P that everyone's ok , till next time see ya on the tracks
Hi from New Zealand again, a question, what is around your right foot in the qualifying footage ?
That is Just how the pedal is built. Or if you are talking about next too it : that would be the fuel pump, and torque tube
@@TannerHolmes Thanks, had a closer look, it seems that the pedal goes under and over your foot. Is that correct ?
I've never been in that place but been in the passenger seat and it shakes your body up for you
I really hate to say this and it makes me sound like a horrible person but after seeing this crash on another channel I really wanted to see your point of view of this crash. After I saw that hit, my jaw hit the floor and I cringed. I said to myself, just once can this kid catch a break. I'm glad you're okay and yes, you were definitely gonna feel it the next day. ✌
Remember when rooster was hanging on the top of the fence on turn 3.
You should do a video of iracing at Port Royal that’s my home track
maybe soon!
I'm so glad you and Wheatley are going to be ok. I was watching on Flo and it happened in an instant. You had zero time to react. If you go back and look Allard in front of you Barely clips Wheatley and saves this from being a hard bad crash to possibly being tragic. He clips him just enough to spin him around just in time. Otherwise the impact would have been to the top driver cage instead of the bottom of the racecar. So glad both of you are ok! Keep Rippn Tanner.. you had some great runs going there at Skagit!
100 percent Allard put him in a better spot for a hit. Thankful we were both good
I hate wings, just too damn fast in the turns. No time to react. Damn lucky that there are not more accidents like this.
Glad you all are ok…
Ouch....gonna hurt for a week...
Sounded like motor was buried running low side goin slow. Change rear end gear? Get the motor to its happy place? running in the back always slower too. plus, pushin like a dump truck without that right rear hp. In the long run, crashing is inevitable. Racers love racing more than they fear crashing. My driver was my daughter, so I can relate to how your Dad feels, or that other driver's Dad. True fans hate yellow or red flags. Prayers for all racers, in all races, everywhere, but especially the ones on the receiving end of big hits.
Remember, you don't HAVE TO get the back up car ready, you GET TO make it ready. Your Pop's is hooked, and real smart.
Appreciate the feedback. we did make some changes to help for what you mentioned!
Wow glad everyone is ok
Been there, done that, from both sides. I will say that it is much worse to be on your side in the middle of traffic like a watermelon waiting for a sledgehammer. It's such a weird pain too when all your insides get jolted like that. It's an odd feeling of shock.
The belts always hurt pretty bad in hits like that. Do you have bruises?
But then being airborne long enough to say to yourself, uh oh this is going to hurt can be pretty scary in itself.
That hurt the twins.
Holy SH*T!!
Tough break for all concerned ah (back on the horse buddy) try and find time to step away for a day take it easy.
Terrifying hit for both of you. Glad you are okay and hope he is too.
Take it easy kid. 👍
You going to Eldora for the 175k?
not this year sadly
Was Kory Ellison there? Hope you are ok what a week
he was
I love to race
I just watched this in .25 speed and still didn’t see his car until it was right in front of you. Nothing you could have done.
You were in shock my friend, a total human response. Don’t over think it, you will wonder why you didn’t do this or didn’t say this and if you were in shock (which I think possibly you were) you probably mentally shut down after the wreck. Happened to me a few times in my life (not in racing, I don’t race) and it is a little confusing. Anyway, that’s just my opinion and thought id share it. There is nothing you could have done to avoid that wreck, but I suspect you know that.
Wrong place wrong time. Cars can be replaced people can’t
you had now where to go
👍
That Is Too Bad.
It’s always at skagit
Noti gang 😝
Absolutely nothing you could do.
rough year so far bud
No fault of yours or Austin’s . If you’ve seen the wreck it’s not on anyone but Madden… standard issue for him
A kid with a lot of money but not a lot of talent
Shane bienman,, a guy with no money and even less talent. But plenty of hate and jealousy stemming from his unusually small manhood I'll bet u drive a really big truck tho lol. Small potatoes make the steak look big my friend. Keep hatin'!
You should let your sister drive.
Hunt the front started with a 10-15k late model you started with a rich dad and for that reason it just doesn’t have the same impact. No hate
