In this video I go over what happened to the Mid-Engine Eclipse. The accident, how it happened, how the fire started, how insurance and the giveaway was handled, and more.

The Mid-Engine Eclipse has been missing from the channel for almost three months. This video explains where it was and what happened. It's an incredibly sad ending to an amazing vehicle, but thankfully everyone was okay. Merch ► https://iumindustries.com/ SUPPORT ME HERE! ► https://www.patreon.com/Gingium

So sad to hear this, was your best build yet. But what's important is that you guys are OK! Very understandable that you didn't do a video on this earlier. Thanks for updating us, Caleb. Have a nice Christmas break.

Damm, so sad 2 see, i have watched every Eclipse video, and was so intrigued, on how you hame all that custom stuff, and then to some guy on his phone to come and ruin all the hours and money, you have in that project, must he heartbreaking. Just happy you and Kurt are fine, and no one got injured

Man that hurt to watch, but don’t blame yourself on the fuel tank, lots of mid engine cars put it in the front, this was just the universe aligning to make the worst possible outcome happen while being totally out of your control

haha exactly how I felt

I think it's important for context to add that I am a truck driver. Class A, doubles and triples, Hazmat, all that fun stuff. The way people drive today is unfortunately just terrible. I've noticed a significant difference over the last couple years in incidents exactly like this one that are 100% avoidable. It is something that makes me angry every day at work, because I know things like this happen all the time to people who don't deserve it and are doing everything right. Just within the last few months, we've also had the AdamLZ 992 GT3 crash on TotD (100% not his fault) and the Hamilton Collection Senna accident (also 100% not his fault). That's three car YouTubers within a matter of months having cars totally destroyed by others. It's a sad time to be a car enthusiast unfortunately 😞

You live and you learn. Glad everybody was ok!

You handled a shitty situation really well. Hang in there. I know it's been tough.

Any accident you walk away from is a good one man. You live to keep building badass cars and that's what's important.

That sucks man. It went from a why did he buy that pos to WHAT AN AWESOME CAR! I HOPE I WIN IT. Had a monster miata I did myself over five years. It was the perfect car. You're miata reminds me of it all the time which is both sad and wonderful but it got rear-end by a Ram in the middle of the night in a hit and run so I know how that feels.

God that was hard watching you cry man. Lots of us have been watching for probably 5-6 years and it was heartbreaking that happened to the car, even worse if it was you. I5 sounds strange saying this about someone I have never met but I care about you dude, and thousands of other people do too. <3
