- 1:32Headphones are just super long. The guy said the studio was
- 1:36wrong. Was was was messed up.
- 1:38Yeah, the fucking headphone you. Know for the road.
- 1:43Well, I did see it torn apart. We it dude it when you walked in
- 1:47here, it did look like it. Didn't even.
- 1:48Look, it did look pretty bad. Yeah, it looked like a a break
- 1:52room that they forgot about. But we're back from final bout.
- 1:56We're here to talk about fun about thankfully Johnny's here
- 1:59and I just realized we kind of spent a lot of fun about with
- 2:03each other. Yeah, like by the time Johnny
- 2:06got here, I'm like actually from the moment Johnny landed in
- 2:10Chicago, that. Was what you got.
- 2:13Oh yeah. We.
- 2:13Walked up to Lee's house. Yeah.
- 2:15Dude. That's out of nowhere.
- 2:17Bro, I swear you we finished the podcast and we opened the garage
- 2:22right? And if you guys haven't seen
- 2:25that podcast, we did a podcast with Lee from proceed in his
- 2:28garage. It was sick.
- 2:31It look tell me that did that. The framing didn't look like a
- 2:34legit interview, like the car was in the background.
- 2:36The car looks. Sick.
- 2:37I like that the car is good too. I was watching it and I was
- 2:39like, what? What could we possibly be
- 2:43talking about that looks that important?
- 2:45But the garage open, right? I was really stressed out about
- 2:48that layout 'cause it just remember it took so long to set
- 2:50that up. Bro, you're cooking it.
- 2:52You and Louis. Shout out Louis and Frankie for
- 2:53setting up the podcast studios. My 6 times favorite one is Judd
- 2:57Davis's podcast SO. Bro, I don't know or do I
- 3:01remember nor do I remember really a lot of what we talked
- 3:04about. Then we went until like maybe
- 3:05one or two in the morning and it was in the hotel room and we are
- 3:09maybe might have been under the influence like and the.
- 3:13He went Judd Davis. He wanted the influence.
- 3:15I put those two beers on the on Frankie's tab.
- 3:17I was like, where else do we get beer?
- 3:18And the guys that's. Where it came from, yo.
- 3:21Yeah, we are like wait, who? Who spent $6 on the fucking room
- 3:27service? We didn't have any beer.
- 3:29I had to make a decision. Just.
- 3:30Davis said it was probably Carl and Malcolm was like.
- 3:32Nah, he wouldn't. I only got like 2.
- 3:34I just got one and one like I wanted to actually he wanted to
- 3:38get four and I was like. Jeff Davis, We'll get 2 like.
- 3:42And then like. For Jeff Davis, we'll do
- 3:44anything. That's why I knew you were going
- 3:45to say that. And I was like, I'm going to
- 3:46make the executive decision here.
- 3:47Frankie's just going to tell me. That's funny as fuck.
- 3:49And then I didn't tell you. I forgot to tell you and now
- 3:51it's coming out. I'm so sorry.
- 3:53That's great. I'm.
- 3:54So sorry, I just charged that shit to the room too.
- 3:57I was like, do you guys take card?
- 3:58He's like, no, I'm like, OK, well we're in room so and so.
- 4:03So you could take a card to process the payment for the
- 4:05room, but you can't take a card to process.
- 4:07It has to go. Through and it was late he was
- 4:09probably and I asked him for bathrobes like 5 minutes before
- 4:12then. So yeah, we tried to do the
- 4:14podcast in bathrobes. It didn't work.
- 4:16They didn't have any the. Guy was like.
- 4:18No, come on bro. That was Jet's idea, wasn't?
- 4:20It it was my idea. Thought it was a Hilton.
- 4:22What the fuck? And then and then the guy was
- 4:24like no. And then we came back 5 minutes
- 4:26later asking if they took card for the beer and they were like
- 4:29no I'm like OK so that's this is pretty much hell.
- 4:32That's so funny. That was you.
- 4:33We were trying to figure this out.
- 4:34Who else would it be, dude? The thing is, it doesn't say
- 4:37beer, it just says $6. So what do you thought Lewis is
- 4:40buying? Porn.
- 4:41I was like why? Would the little kid buy it?
- 4:43No. Honestly I was like they
- 4:44probably charged us for towels or some dumb shit.
- 4:46No, that was the second hotel. I was about to flip that bitch
- 4:49upside down. Yeah, but anyway.
- 4:51But the the layout for Jet Davis's podcast did.
- 4:54You see what it was, Johnny? No, it's not it.
- 4:55It's not out yet. It's not even on the Patreon.
- 4:57I think I showed it to Johnny, a picture of it.
- 4:59Hopefully tomorrow all the podcasts will be on.
- 5:02The issue was so rinky dink like everything was all over the
- 5:04place. Frankie setting it up like.
- 5:06Dude, we had an iron. In the boards and.
- 5:07Shit, we took the ironing board out and hooked the mic stands up
- 5:10to it and there's and the irons on the fucking ironing board.
- 5:13It was so bad. It was so far.
- 5:15This podcast, probably. The funny, the background, yeah.
- 5:17Jed Davis is just a highway. Highway.
- 5:20That's it, Yeah. And.
- 5:21But I like shit, like like I like watching highways and shit.
- 5:24So like that's the perfect setting because you could like
- 5:26bullshit, dude, this. I could watch that.
- 5:28One this highway like we we got to oh, we got to Chicago on.
- 5:32Wednesday. That's the hotel they stay at
- 5:34every year. No, honestly, this hotel is
- 5:37really just Front St. It's the hotel that they stay.
- 5:39In yeah, we always. You know, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 5:41You know so. What?
- 5:43You literally slept there. This you're at last.
- 5:45No, no, no, we didn't go to that one.
- 5:46So we we get there and like the meet is going on the pre meet
- 5:52and we're like we're late, we're like an hour late or whatever.
- 5:54So we get to the hotel room, I open the fucking blinds and it's
- 5:57just proceed cruising by on the highway.
- 5:59Like we just kept seeing drift teams cruising down this highway
- 6:01and we're like, all right, I guess we know which way we got
- 6:03to go, but it. Looked awesome bro, like and
- 6:06that was one of the first after we did our podcast with Damon,
- 6:10which was sick. You guys are going to love that
- 6:12one. I don't.
- 6:13Think that one? Yeah, that was good too.
- 6:14And the backdrop of that one looked pretty sick too.
- 6:16Johnny's going to love that one. Bro, that one was legit.
- 6:18And that was a that was a kickoff 1.
- 6:19So you know, I was horned up. Dude.
- 6:21I just wanted to talk to Damon. We talked about so much and
- 6:24Damon's pretty knowledgeable, very knowledgeable and like that
- 6:27space. So yeah, yeah, look out for that
- 6:29one. That was pretty sick.
- 6:30He he literally, we didn't even tell him what to do.
- 6:33He literally went into a complete history lesson of his
- 6:37car life. But like and I was like, this
- 6:38was perfect. But like in an entertaining like
- 6:40I was shit, you guys know my attention span like and I was in
- 6:46there, dude, Damon Damon's technically a Toyota guy if you
- 6:52fucking. Think about him.
- 6:52OK, here we. Go.
- 6:54Don't. Do.
- 6:55Not really. 180SX for life and. Do not even with me.
- 6:59He owns like a couple at the moment.
- 7:03I mean technically a couple because one of them is like not
- 7:06really a Toyota. Minivan bro.
- 7:09One of the greatest minivans known.
- 7:12Bro Toyota. Sienna, I like the previa.
- 7:14Yeah, but from a recreational standpoint, the Previa's sick,
- 7:17but the Sienna is like one of the most iconic minivans you
- 7:21could ever have. That shit is reliable as fuck.
- 7:24It's big as fuck. What else?
- 7:27It doesn't look half bad. Have you seen the new ones?
- 7:30With the? With the.
- 7:30Kit he's. Got a Toyota Matrix or some
- 7:32shit? Yes, he so that's that's the one
- 7:34I'm saying that's a Pontiac Vibe.
- 7:36Oh OK Matrix. Those are cool though.
- 7:38That's a matrix. Are they not the same car?
- 7:40That's a matrix. Oh, they are, yeah.
- 7:42The. Versions are sick supposedly.
- 7:44Yeah, all-wheel drive ones or? Whatever. 2 ZZ, 2 ZZ.
- 7:47Yeah, that's shit. So.
- 7:48Like fucking 85. 100 that's it's a all-wheel drive yeah he's.
- 7:51He's a 180 for life. He's 180 for life.
- 7:54He's got one of nine. He's 180 for life.
- 7:56Yeah, all I know is type. As.
- 7:58Soon as we got there, we ran into an issue like right off the
- 8:04RIP. He brought it up.
- 8:08I didn't do it so. Malcolm, Cam.
- 8:12He goes. Malcolm, Cam.
- 8:14Yeah. So while it's on Malcolm Cam,
- 8:16what ended up happening was we showed up to Damon's house,
- 8:18Camry on bronze. See, I'm not saying Camry on
- 8:21bronze. He had the craziest names for
- 8:23this guy. He's like, we used to call you
- 8:25camera. I on brought.
- 8:26I'm like what? I had to tell him and I thought
- 8:28his name was Cameron. Then he thought his name was
- 8:30Cameron. Because it was camera.
- 8:32I was like Cameron, like the fucking rapper.
- 8:35I always thought it. Was Damon.
- 8:36I'm like, your name is definitely not Cameron, but I
- 8:40got the Malcolm Cam up because we show up Malcolm Frankie's
- 8:44just about to set everything up and then he goes, we don't have
- 8:49any podcasts. We don't have any mic wires and
- 8:53I'm like, now Frankie's already ready to kill Malcolm from
- 8:59Michigan. I can't kill him, so I'm just
- 9:01ready to solve the problem. My headphones went out I think.
- 9:04He was ready to kill him and Malcolm.
- 9:07I tried to de escalate it as good as I can, did I not?
- 9:11I'm not going to say anything until I have my lawyer present.
- 9:13Yeah, it's probably a good fucking idea, to be honest.
- 9:15Where's my attorney? Dude, no, because Frankie was
- 9:18going to kill him. I said, hey man, he doesn't
- 9:21really mess up that often. I love how Carl's like he's,
- 9:23Carl's talking like he works at the shop.
- 9:25Well, he doesn't mess up that often.
- 9:27I made sure. You're here 1-2 hours a week.
- 9:31I. Proved that first of all, I'm
- 9:32here at least 4 hours a week. No 233, I'll give you 3.
- 9:36Alright, alright, alright. That's negotiating, yeah.
- 9:40But no that. That was HR 101 right there.
- 9:45I was gonna punch you in the face.
- 9:46I was gonna and then guess what? That's what HR gets.
- 9:49That's that's what HR gets. That's that's what happens in
- 9:52real life. But you, you can't technically
- 9:54can't do it. But like, that's, that's what
- 9:56you want to do. You want to punch HR in the
- 9:57face? Listen, that problem's not
- 9:58resolved yet. We got the cables, everything
- 10:02was all like, first of all the best.
- 10:04Buy we got the cables, then we went to plug the mic, the
- 10:08headphones. In Oh, right Oh.
- 10:10Malcolm forgot something else. 2 mistakes.
- 10:14Out of at least 1000 decisions Malcolm makes.
- 10:16Yeah, he has pretty good. Sam had a lot on his plate, but
- 10:19the only thing that made me feel better is when I picked him up
- 10:21from the airport and there him and Eddie were like very
- 10:25apologetic. No shit, because you real.
- 10:28I was like, dude, I know Malcolm and I know Eddie.
- 10:31They probably felt like well. Malcolm was pacing back and
- 10:34forth in here, apparently before he even said.
- 10:35Anything. I was on the floor on my knees
- 10:37with my like I was praying like AI don't know, he thought he.
- 10:42Was going to kill you. Yeah, I really thought I almost
- 10:44cried. I'm dead ass.
- 10:45Eddie was like, he was pacing back and forth.
- 10:47He's like, what the fuck do I do?
- 10:48What do I do? And Eddie's like you should
- 10:50probably tell him you forgot the mic cables.
- 10:54All right, well, it. Didn't seem like that happened
- 10:56so fast when we were there. Because systematically we
- 11:01attacked that. No, but I'm saying when I
- 11:02realized they were gone to when Malcolm called me and said I
- 11:06forgot them, that that seems like it happened within.
- 11:09One, did you not do that voluntarily?
- 11:11Apparently he was. He had enough time to be pacing
- 11:13back and forth just trying to figure out if he was going to
- 11:15tell me or not. But like in my head, no, it was
- 11:18I got your message first. That's when I found out.
- 11:20But I but that was all within like a one minute time period.
- 11:24No, no shit, 2 seconds to look at my phone that's.
- 11:26A red alert. Like already you're fucking.
- 11:28You're mad. You're mad that his response
- 11:30time was impeccable. Are you shitting me?
- 11:33I. Just, I don't know, I I thought
- 11:36I was blacking. Out your employee is responding
- 11:39to a situation and and he was alert.
- 11:43Yeah. And we had no service.
- 11:44That's good, but we went to Best Buy.
- 11:46Boom. He kept trying to call me.
- 11:47I'm like beep see ya what are you going to do air ship them to
- 11:51me with a drone? I.
- 11:52Can't do anything. He looked.
- 11:53Up he was. He was looking up places to.
- 11:55Get them so I had no service so you just hear like the phone
- 11:57picks up. You're off.
- 12:00We are fucked up. And I just.
- 12:03And that was it. He was looking up places to get
- 12:06him. Bro we, we.
- 12:07Were you not? He looked up another place.
- 12:09It was like a fuck headphone. Because I texted him while we
- 12:11were there. I was like find somewhere.
- 12:13No, he he directed us to a music store.
- 12:15Yeah, well, we went to Best Buy because.
- 12:17We went to Best Buy and guess what Best Buy had in stock?
- 12:19Oh, the wires. And guess how many they had?
- 12:21Exactly how many we needed. It was fate, bro.
- 12:24It was just a little detour. No problem.
- 12:27And guess what? We weren't even really late to
- 12:29anything. We were move on to the next
- 12:31subject. Where were we late?
- 12:34We were late to what? We missed the podcast.
- 12:38Yeah, we did. We were running really late that
- 12:40day. Round of applause.
- 12:41OK, all right, so then what? Cameron Bronze.
- 12:46And then that's that was the same.
- 12:50Now we did, I think. Yeah, we had golf, bro.
- 12:53How many did you have Culver's out there, Johnny, you did.
- 12:55You did twice. We had it three times.
- 12:57I'm still shitting it out. Bro, me and Josh, whenever we go
- 13:00to Culver's, it's always like the most ridiculous shit walking
- 13:03in there. They have fucking kids that are
- 13:0510 years old working in this place.
- 13:06Yeah, anyone says they do. He's.
- 13:09Right, Yo, no. Actually.
- 13:11No. Tell me they the. 1-10 years.
- 13:12The one little girl that told Malcolm.
- 13:15Do you remember? That bro Malcolm's like hey
- 13:17y'all are out of some small lids instead of telling him that the
- 13:22the lids over there are for the cup.
- 13:24This little bitch fucking. Walks over to the fucking
- 13:26dispense. Walks out from behind they
- 13:28quietly look at each other like and then she just walks around
- 13:32the. Counter.
- 13:33Walks around the counter, walks all the way.
- 13:36Me and Malcolm look at each other like, OK, I guess we're
- 13:38gonna follow you. And then we follow her to the
- 13:40fucking thing. This the lid dispenser.
- 13:41And she just grabs one out and Malcolm just goes.
- 13:43Oh, so I guess that's the one. Do you remember that?
- 13:48Yeah, I do. I was like damn, my fault.
- 13:50But I do agree. Beef.
- 13:51They, they're, they're like young kids working in there.
- 13:53Yeah, every time. Me and Josh stopped at a random
- 13:56one when we were going to the track.
- 13:57It was just me and him driving. We were like all right, let's
- 13:59stop, get some culvert. I think we stopped for fuel.
- 14:01I don't remember what we stopped for.
- 14:03So I know he just, I think he just wanted culverts.
- 14:06Whatever, that's good. We stop there and we walk in and
- 14:08there's an old lady working and like there's two or three young
- 14:13kids. The it's.
- 14:14Like they're 10. It's like gotta be the two
- 14:15opposite ends. Like 'cause there is also a lot
- 14:18of old. People no one does shit there
- 14:19either. It literally took this lady like
- 14:235-10 minutes to to take Josh's order.
- 14:26And she. Oh, don't get me.
- 14:26Started. I'm like, Nah, what is going on?
- 14:29That's not just Culver's. That's.
- 14:31Everywhere. No, actually, they're not nice.
- 14:33They got beef. But everyone bro what not the
- 14:36one that we. Went to every time.
- 14:37We go to Culver's, we have like some sort of beef.
- 14:40I feel like there's kids throwing shit at us and.
- 14:42I kind of agree. Sometimes there are they they,
- 14:45they're either like really nice or they have an attitude.
- 14:48All three times of mine hits. Fire.
- 14:51I mean, it's good, don't get me. Wrong.
- 14:53The first time I went there, the first stop was the one after the
- 14:57Damon pot. We went to Culver's and we sit
- 15:00down. This lady, this lady immediately
- 15:02is like I told them not to put me on trash on day.
- 15:05And guess what they did? And then I looked at her and I
- 15:06was like, you're doing trash all day, huh?
- 15:08And then she goes, yes I am sweetie.
- 15:10Yes I am. Walks away.
- 15:11I'm like sick. That was the lady that kept
- 15:13going back to our table. That's why they got beef, man.
- 15:15They just. They and the whole time she just
- 15:17always just just make sure we're checking on us.
- 15:19She'd wear a good and like doesn't even.
- 15:21Matter. But they're like very polite too
- 15:22though, right? Like, it's almost like they're
- 15:24trying to act like Chick-fil-A or no, not not for you.
- 15:28I don't know. We just got beef.
- 15:29Any Yeah, I think like last year James asked for sauces and he
- 15:33wanted all the sauces that they had.
- 15:35And you can't do. That three sauces I.
- 15:36Don't think you could do that. Those sauces are the size of a
- 15:38fuck of this. Yeah, but the kid was like
- 15:41giving James a problem. And the kids James was like,
- 15:44what kind of sauces you guys got?
- 15:46And he's like honey mustard BBQ, whatever.
- 15:49He named all the sauces. James was like, all right, I'll
- 15:51take honey mustard BBQ. Like he named all the sausage
- 15:54after this kid and he went and got him and came back.
- 15:58And he gave it to him. Yeah, All right.
- 16:01I mean. It's I, I enjoy it.
- 16:03I enjoy it too. I enjoy Culver's but 2 * 2 times
- 16:06in 2 days. I had it three times.
- 16:08One guy made a joke crazy. One guy made a joke to me and
- 16:11like he, I guess he thought it was offensive or something.
- 16:14He's like, oh, by the way, I'm sorry, but like I didn't mean to
- 16:16say it. I was like, I was like, it's all
- 16:17good, dude. It was funny.
- 16:19It's all good. But that's what I mean.
- 16:21Like they're like trying to be polite and then city.
- 16:22Shitters. Yeah, like.
- 16:24Yeah, but at the same time, I'm looking at him with this dead
- 16:27look on my face because we're not from the dude.
- 16:31Tell me everybody that looks like they have yet to run into
- 16:36some real, like they're really just like calm.
- 16:38Calm all the time. Like really calm.
- 16:41Like it makes me calm being out. I think it's.
- 16:43Just 'cause they don't, I don't know, it's just less people.
- 16:45It's. Just Culver's bro when you went
- 16:47there. Like there's just different air
- 16:49in there, dude. And not to mention the Culver's
- 16:50by the track that's the most people they see ever is that
- 16:53weekend. So you that I was actually
- 16:56thinking that town is super busy that weekend 'cause they have
- 16:59the State Fair. Yeah, and fucking final bat.
- 17:01Yeah, that must be the busiest. You know what I saw?
- 17:03Actually, I saw I was kind of tight.
- 17:05I missed it at the circle track they got there, the dirt track.
- 17:07Yeah. There was a dude on a Evo doing
- 17:09the what? The what?
- 17:11You know how they have the spectator?
- 17:12Yeah, there was a dude in a Evo doing it.
- 17:14When were they doing that? That's what we just.
- 17:16Missed it Fucking like Saturday night.
- 17:18Yeah, we just missed it. Fuck yeah.
- 17:20We literally went over there right after, but we went to
- 17:22Culver's first. We missed it.
- 17:24Yeah, if I saw a dude ripping a evo around a dirt track I would.
- 17:28I'd lose my. Fucking mind.
- 17:29I wouldn't be able to not think of you.
- 17:31I'd be like what? The hell is Johnny?
- 17:33Yeah. I would.
- 17:33I wouldn't have gone to final bout if I knew that was going
- 17:35on, honestly. Dude.
- 17:40And then Evo. 10 was the guy that we saw when we.
- 17:42OK anyway, back to how we saw Johnny, right?
- 17:44Because this is now tying back together because Evo 10 just
- 17:47triggered it. Oh yeah bro.
- 17:50The moment Johnny lands, we had to go situate some and and short
- 17:55story how he showed up. This is pretty much how he
- 17:57showed up. Just like how the iconic person
- 17:58that Johnny is, we open the garage, first person that walks
- 18:02up, it's just Johnny with his backpack just walks up the
- 18:05driveway. I'm like, what the fuck?
- 18:07Yeah. Just landed in Chicago and you
- 18:09have no idea where you are. And Frankie's like, got to this
- 18:11house, didn't you? Just say you were like we we
- 18:13should probably pick him up or like.
- 18:16And when we were doing the pot, he's a.
- 18:18Bro, I was not sitting in that airport.
- 18:20Bro just showed up my mind. Yeah.
- 18:22Anyway, Johnny shows up immediately.
- 18:23We're like, there's a dispensary down the road, let's go.
- 18:27RIP that we were there. Remember the Uber driver?
- 18:30Bro the Uber tell him about the fucking.
- 18:31Uber driver, he just did not say anything when we got in the car.
- 18:36Anything you could have took the truck?
- 18:37And you were so nice. Yeah, I was being nice.
- 18:40I'm not a nice, like I'm a nice person, but I'm not like
- 18:43friendly with people. I'm like, what's up man?
- 18:45Like whatever. Yeah, I'm like, yeah, if you
- 18:47want to wait for us, we'll be like 5 minutes and we'll come
- 18:49right back out and you could just drive, like I'll pay you
- 18:53for the way back or whatever. Well, you asked him how how he
- 18:55was too, and he didn't. Oh yeah, he didn't say shit.
- 18:57He didn't say anything to us, so I asked that question and he
- 19:02just doesn't say a word. And I'm like, I'm like, OK, but
- 19:06just drop this off. And that was it.
- 19:09We didn't see any, just left. And that's yeah.
- 19:11But we went to get. We went in there, yeah, that
- 19:14that was a good experience. They had free M&M's in there the
- 19:16moment you walked in. Was that when I was picking them
- 19:18up my? Sugar was low as hell, yeah.
- 19:19So I think while you're picking them up, we were like, how do we
- 19:22kill time? But yeah, because at that time,
- 19:25Frankie had left to go pick up. Dude I was sitting in the
- 19:27airport for like an hour just doing laps.
- 19:29Malcolm Princess, How was it? How's that airport?
- 19:32What airport? Is that OK?
- 19:33Yeah, it looks. Like a big good functioning
- 19:35airport, but you cannot sit. For no, they're on their top of
- 19:39the. Dude, they got the guards
- 19:40walking back and forth. The guy.
- 19:42Moved the car. Literally move.
- 19:44He's he was like. Yo you.
- 19:46And he's like, call me. He's like, yeah, yeah, I can't
- 19:49come over there. I'm like, why not, bro?
- 19:50Like just pick me up. Like I'm standing here, right
- 19:53here. And he's like, they're going to
- 19:55give me a ticket. I'm like, what do you mean?
- 19:57Like you're picking me up from the airport, bro.
- 19:59You're going to drive in and I'm going to get in the car and
- 20:01we're going to leave. And he's like, no, I'm going to
- 20:03get a ticket. And then like all of a sudden I
- 20:05see like 10 cops roll out. I'm like what the?
- 20:08Yeah, dude, it's. It's weird.
- 20:09And they were like kicking a bunch of people out.
- 20:11And I'm like. All right, I'm on the phone.
- 20:13I'm like where? Should I meet you, man?
- 20:15Because I'm kind of. Scared now I.
- 20:17See a bunch of cops. I started tweaking and.
- 20:19Then. He's like telling me where to go
- 20:22and I'm like, I have no idea where I'm going.
- 20:24So I'm basically getting lost. He's like, you got to go to the
- 20:26second floor, Terminal 2 or whatever, and I'm like, all
- 20:29right. So I'm like asking people.
- 20:31I'm like, how do I get here? They're like go up, walk out,
- 20:34walk around. Oh my God, I have no idea.
- 20:36It's kind of confusing, Yeah. It was nuts.
- 20:38I found the guy, but then yeah, he didn't get a ticket.
- 20:42Dude, that airport was was the different.
- 20:44I mean, The thing is Newark is just as strict.
- 20:46So I I don't know it was. Nuts.
- 20:48Because that was, that was all of that like happened
- 20:51simultaneously and like we almost didn't have to work for
- 20:54any of that timing to work perfectly.
- 20:56Oh yeah, it worked out. I mean, I'm.
- 20:58Like what the fuck? Hey I calculated this are.
- 21:00You, bro, no. Here's what's even better.
- 21:03Me and Johnny get out of the dispensary and we're walking
- 21:05around and we're like waiting for the next Uber and.
- 21:09We just. Spend like 15 minutes looking at
- 21:11this like Hyundai EV and Johnny's trying to convince me
- 21:14that it's actually a pretty good.
- 21:15Car end line or whatever. Yo, it's, it's cool, it's cool,
- 21:18it looks cool. Is it just electric?
- 21:20Yeah. Would you?
- 21:21Would you think he would like that Malcolm First shits and
- 21:23gigs? Can you pull this up on Google?
- 21:24What? Is it called?
- 21:26What is that? It's like it's a box, the
- 21:29Hyundai EVN or something. I would just Google that.
- 21:33Kona, Nev. Maybe I don't.
- 21:34Know what the fuck is that? No, Kona is the normal car.
- 21:37Yeah, but it looks like that sort.
- 21:39Of it's it looks definitely pretty sporty.
- 21:42I don't know anything. It had like big brakes, it had
- 21:44like big wheels. It was a little lower and it had
- 21:46vents that actually looked like they would.
- 21:47Do something functional like. Race car Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 21:50yeah, yeah, yeah, I got. Proxy in there or something?
- 21:53No, but it was like a really trimmed up 1, You know, all I
- 21:56could think about what we were looking about that looking at
- 21:57that car was that if that wasn't there, I'd want a picture of my
- 22:00car right there. Yes, that.
- 22:02Blue one's like the base 1 though Yeah, the blue one,
- 22:05that's the race car one the. The bottom left.
- 22:07Yeah, but is it like Frankie's not gonna like?
- 22:08It is it like an SUV? Dude.
- 22:10No, it can't. Even it's like a small hatch.
- 22:12It's like a fucking GR Corolla. It's like a big hatch.
- 22:15I mean, the GR Corolla is pretty big.
- 22:16Those are like 20 Johnny. It's hard for me to like any.
- 22:18Like any new car though, it's like a fucking type R.
- 22:21Basically this. Is how people.
- 22:22Say these are oh not these, but the regular gas ones are better
- 22:25than type Rs. Wait.
- 22:27Why they make gas ones? Yeah, yeah, the end line or
- 22:30whatever. Oh, oh, that's a different, but
- 22:33this is a completely different the.
- 22:34Fucking brakes. This is a race car.
- 22:35Like all these vents are functional and inside the
- 22:39battery. No, these go to the fucking
- 22:43brakes and wheels and shit. Like it's got functional.
- 22:45I mean, they're everywhere. Electric cars do have radiators,
- 22:48right? They have to cool the.
- 22:49Fuck, you're not asking the right people here dude I don't
- 22:51think. I don't know anything about
- 22:52them, but I think they have a. Water cool system.
- 22:55It's my friend, works at, he's a salesman at Hyundai, and he's
- 22:58like, he drove one on autocross at MetLife.
- 23:01Oh yeah, they were doing like a day there to test him or
- 23:03something and he said it's fucking sick.
- 23:05I mean, I'm probably. Sure, he's fast.
- 23:06It's like. No.
- 23:08Here's what got. Here's where they lost me.
- 23:10I look inside and the wheel has paddle shifters.
- 23:14Like I see a plus and A minus. Yeah, like you could.
- 23:15And I'm like, wait, no. Yeah, and it plays engine
- 23:18sounds. That's corny to me.
- 23:19That's it has the engine sounds. Yeah, I was at the I just.
- 23:22Wanted to drive the car I. Don't know where I was, the
- 23:24airport is somewhere, but then all of a sudden we just hear.

- 23:39is that? Shit like why do we have?
- 23:40Planes gonna fucking crash. Into the airplane, dude.
- 23:42No, no, just make a. Fucking normal noise.
- 23:45Beep, beep. Here's here was another, here
- 23:47was another simulation. It was like simulation, like
- 23:49Checkpoint unlocked because we're sitting there fucking EVO
- 23:5210 just. That was weird.
- 23:54That was funny, yeah, he told. Me, I was like, I did not see
- 23:58EVO the rest of the trip like and there it is.
- 24:00We're look, it's not, but we were looking at that car and all
- 24:04I hear like I hear them and I'm like my ears ringing off like I
- 24:11know that sound like I don't know boom Evo 10 will pass and
- 24:15I'm like, damn. Yo, here's another thing.
- 24:17I should keep I look. Across the street, there's an
- 24:20abandoned it looked and it looked like an abandoned
- 24:22vehicle, but picture like a jersey barrier, a high Jersey
- 24:26barrier. Yeah, like you can see only just
- 24:28the top, maybe, maybe the mirrors and above of a of a SUV.
- 24:33And I'm like Johnny, that's a Sequoia.
- 24:36He's. He's Carl's, yo.
- 24:40He's like, that's a Sequoia right there.
- 24:42I'm like, yeah, it looks like one, like I'm sure it is.
- 24:44He's like, we gotta go see if that's a Sequoia.
- 24:47We walk, we walk like 40 feet of a day.
- 24:50We walk like 20 feet, like up. I just need to know if I was
- 24:53right at this point. It wasn't a Sequoia, it was a
- 24:56Forerunner. Wow, it was close.
- 24:59Can't believe you fucked that one up.
- 25:01We were sitting there just smoking a stove and we're like,
- 25:03he's like, bro, I got, I just got a check bro.
- 25:05Like I have like. All right, we could walk.
- 25:07It's like. 10 fucking foot walk. Like we could just walk over

- 25:12I'm mad that you missed the free meet.
- 25:14Yeah. Yo, you would have loved it man,
- 25:17that was. Did you go last year?
- 25:19Yeah. Oh, so you saw it last year?
- 25:21We didn't see it last year that. Yeah, yeah.
- 25:23So you know the street that it's on?
- 25:25The fucking yeah. Yeah, that part.
- 25:28That street was sick. Yeah, so many cool cars.
- 25:32Dude, so, but even before then, like so after we had Culver's
- 25:37the first time and after this lady called me sweetie after she
- 25:40had the garbage shift all day. Sorry, Hun.
- 25:44And we drove to Chicago. We drove to Chicago and we hung
- 25:47out at Extreme Graphics. Hour and a half of traffic was.
- 25:50Great bro the vibe at extreme graphics and this is the first
- 25:54first of all we we get out of the van and the first person I
- 25:58see is Alexi like Nori arrow oh. Yeah, this was.
- 26:00Crazy. And I was like, holy shit, like
- 26:03hey, really like your stuff. And then we talked for like.
- 26:06Fanboy for a second. Then we talked like 15 minutes,
- 26:08yeah, because. That's.
- 26:09Then he just kept the conversation going.
- 26:11Yeah, yeah. And unfortunately we were
- 26:13supposed to do a podcast with him.
- 26:14Nice guy. I was just so tired that I.
- 26:17Yeah, he just brought, he just I, I so then I jump in and I'm
- 26:20like, hey, we have a podcast today.
- 26:21He's like, Oh yeah, people, I think people were tagging me
- 26:24and, and remember, because we told everyone to fucking do
- 26:26that. And he's like, yeah, I think I
- 26:27saw it. I was like, yeah, you know, I
- 26:28mean, maybe if you're around and you would feel like he's like,
- 26:30Oh yeah, I'd love to, I'd love to, to do it for like an hour or
- 26:33something. And and the I was like Jesus,
- 26:35OK, awesome. And then I was tired.
- 26:37And Carl dropped the ball. But anyway.
- 26:39But he was really. I just run out of steam
- 26:41sometimes. I'm I'll be fucking, I'll be
- 26:43talking for a lot of hours. It's fucking some point.
- 26:46Is he's really nice. He's a really nice guy.
- 26:49He talked to us for so long. He was.
- 26:50I'm sure he'll be back next year, he kept.
- 26:51Bringing up this point, the main point, the first point that he
- 26:55brought up was like he was like, I think it's really funny that
- 27:00like people buy Grande's and I'm like, what?
- 27:03What else are we supposed to buy here?
- 27:04In my mind, this is what I'm thinking.
- 27:05I'm like, what else are we supposed to buy?
- 27:06Alexi? We don't really have a lot of
- 27:07cool shoe here, and he's like, but Camry's look better when you
- 27:10could just go buy a camera, is what he was arguing.
- 27:12Yeah. What's funny is we just had that
- 27:14Damon pod. Can you explain this Grande
- 27:16thing to me? I don't really know what he's
- 27:17talking about. Is it just like a?
- 27:18Base a base it's like a non non. GTE people are.
- 27:23You're stupid for buying one of those if you buy one, but it's a
- 27:25cool. Daily what is?
- 27:27The it's like the same borderline, the same car.
- 27:29Right hand drive car is a daily though.
- 27:30That shit sucks bro you can't even go to.
- 27:32McDonald's if you agree with that.
- 27:33If you drift a right hand drive car, I think a right hand drive
- 27:37daily would be perfect. No, I would like drifting right
- 27:40hand drive because the three two downshift.
- 27:42You just fucking slap that shit. 32 downshift in America means
- 27:46I'm wow. Like yeah, but you can.
- 27:48It's weird. You're saying there you're like
- 27:50like if you if you're dripping and you just like you just take
- 27:54your arm and go like that. It goes 3 two.
- 27:56Yeah, but you? Can feel the other, yeah, but.
- 27:58Feel the same way? 32 in an in ausd in America is
- 28:02the best. It's fucking.
- 28:03Ba ba ba ba second. Bam, right in a second.
- 28:06I barely got to think. I'm just like Bam right in a
- 28:08second. But it's cooler slapping it like
- 28:10that. You just don't even think about
- 28:11it. You just.
- 28:12I never really thought about this.
- 28:13Tell me that's not the sickest shit you see videos of people
- 28:15like fucking. I'm going to go in there.
- 28:21He just that's. What it looks like fucking looks
- 28:22sick. Yeah, that is what.
- 28:24You don't even think about it. I've never seen you so
- 28:28passionate about some fucking bullshit ass.
- 28:31I just like one 80s that's. I like I I kind of agree with
- 28:38Carl, but I get what he's saying.
- 28:40I, I I definitely get it. I just.
- 28:42I don't like right hand drive. We don't drive on the side that
- 28:45it's beneficial to drive that on like.
- 28:48Like I'm trying to drop money off of the bank, yeah.
- 28:50How the fuck am I gonna get my Taco Bell practice?
- 28:53Yeah, put it on the. Passenger seat, Anything either
- 28:55like? You can't see shit.
- 28:56It's. Not practice trying.
- 28:58To make a left turn with cars. Bro literally just buy a Camry
- 29:00for fucking $1000. So that was Alexi's argument.
- 29:03He's like, why don't people just buy Camrys more often?
- 29:06In fact, he found a Camry on Alexi's story.
- 29:08I saw it. He found a Camry and was like,
- 29:11he, he made that point actually. Like he brought that point up
- 29:15again, which I was like, damn, he really believes in that shit.
- 29:17And it was like people should just buy more Camrys and it was
- 29:20a Camry with like a lip and wait, wait, XT7 can.
- 29:24We go back to this though 'cause I no one explained it to me.
- 29:26What? Grande is a non GT.
- 29:28OK, he's talking about the non. Sporty.
- 29:32Chambers the non sporty. Chase the non sporty.
- 29:34JZXS so it's a chaser. The ones that are literally
- 29:38Miyagi's car trim model bone stock.
- 29:40Yeah, Grande is just a trim, just not too urgent.
- 29:42He's a trim 1JZ GE. Sometimes.
- 29:48No turbo Auto. Oh yeah.
- 29:50Sometimes it's a 2 liter like a 1G Fe.
- 29:53I get one of. There's another one, I forget
- 29:54the other one. Why are you going to pay 10
- 29:56grand for that? That's.
- 29:56Fucking but people aren't paying 10 grand for that.
- 29:58People are paying like 5 grand, 6 grand for that.
- 30:01Already imported. Here, Dame Ballin.
- 30:03I do, I do agree. I do agree with Johnny though
- 30:05because just because of the right hand drive thing like like
- 30:07they're probably buying. It because they will.
- 30:09Just buy a Honda Fit and you'll have way more fun.
- 30:11It's this. I mean, yeah, there, but there's
- 30:12always just a stigma with like you have a Camry, but although
- 30:16he so. Why do they say that?
- 30:17Because it's rear wheel drive, right?
- 30:20Yeah, it's not like you're going to.
- 30:21Drift, but you can't. Even drift bro it makes like a
- 30:22fucking 100 horsepower. The car weighs 3000.
- 30:24Pounds. I wouldn't call it a Camry
- 30:26though. I mean maybe just the.
- 30:28I would call it a neuter JDJZX. Well, I would buy a Camry.
- 30:32First of all, I'm not buying a no fucking Camry.
- 30:34I'm buying AGX. You're.
- 30:35Not going to drift it. It's.
- 30:36Open. DIF it's like you're not going
- 30:38to. Drift.
- 30:38I mean, hey, I'm not going to get one.
- 30:39Either way you have, it's got their foot brake.
- 30:41OK, E brake, yeah. You have, you have other rear
- 30:44wheel drive Toyota options that look OK.
- 30:47You got the GS, You got the fucking Cressida.
- 30:49But the problem with the Cressida is now you're gonna put
- 30:51money into it because the Cressida is an old car.
- 30:53Wait, wait. You said it has a.
- 30:55Foot brake, E brake? Yeah, pretty sure or so.
- 30:57Does the GS. I don't know and the.
- 30:58Chaser it doesn't have a pull up.
- 31:00And the chaser doesn't like the whatever model was better than a
- 31:04Grande. Torvi or whatever.
- 31:05Torvi, I think Rosins has a hand, had a handbrake.
- 31:08Don't most of them have handbrakes?
- 31:10No, but but some of. Them your trim has a handbrake.
- 31:12He's kind of crazy. It really did that like.
- 31:15I think Joey on like even some of the turbo ones I think didn't
- 31:19come with the fucking. Probably.
- 31:21People are probably in the fucking chat punching the air.
- 31:23They're like. No, it's fucking not.
- 31:25Because. I don't give a.
- 31:26Fuck these trims they access. Something to me I don't really.
- 31:28I don't. Really care that much either.
- 31:30The only thing I care about is 1 GTE 2 oscillating vents.
- 31:35That's it. Oscillating vents.
- 31:37The oscillating vents is sick. No camera drift it bro.
- 31:40Imagine you're on grid. I want that AC blasting on me,
- 31:44not nowhere else. That's factual.
- 31:47Like that should just. Yeah, look at the.
- 31:48Grande, Malcolm. Whatever, JZX.
- 31:51Yeah, I want, I want to see what this actually I want to know I
- 31:53can picture it, but. Bro there's like a million trims
- 31:56of them but any it looks. Grand Posh about Toyotas on 180
- 31:59S 6. There we go.
- 32:00That exact one that Malcolm is hovering over is what was parked
- 32:03there in the street. Click.
- 32:05That. Click the photo below it so it
- 32:07just. Seems so dumb to me I'm going to
- 32:09be honest. Like I I get it.
- 32:12Like you want a J. DM call.
- 32:13I mean let me say something right now, all JZXS look the
- 32:15same to me so I don't know what the fuck I'm looking.
- 32:17At no it just literally looks like a Camry bro.
- 32:19They all look like that to me, so is it it comes to like a 2
- 32:22tone like that? Yeah, it the one that we saw.
- 32:24Camry, not the exact. 1. So is that why they call it a
- 32:27Camry too? Because it's like 2 tone like
- 32:28that. Or something.
- 32:29Yeah, that's what that's the joke.
- 32:31You never. I don't know anything.
- 32:33You really don't be no, just period.
- 32:35You just don't listen to what I'd be saying.
- 32:36I'd be seeing Camrys that are 2 tone like that and I'm like, oh,
- 32:39look at Jay-Z X. And I guess now I now that I
- 32:42think about it, you never acknowledge it.
- 32:43Fuck no, you'd be screaming Toyota Sequoia half the time.
- 32:46Too. I'm like, oh look, Jay-Z X, it's
- 32:48a Camry. Frankie doesn't say anything.
- 32:49That Camry comes in that color way here in the US.
- 32:53I literally don't care about anything else other.
- 32:55Than A180SX and you know I agree about it I.
- 32:59Don't. I mean, I mean, it's cool.
- 33:01I like seeing other things don't get me.
- 33:03I appreciate a lot of things. I appreciate's chassis and shit,
- 33:06but like I don't I'm not gonna dig deep into something be like,
- 33:09oh, this is for. Dude, I, I tried at one point to
- 33:12like learn as much as I could because I had to, because.
- 33:15The body, your brain just starts hurting.
- 33:17Though I'm like there are so many fucking options there are
- 33:20like and they use the same chassis for 3-4 different
- 33:23models. That's why.
- 33:24How could that have been? It's so crazy.
- 33:27How could that have been profitable bro?
- 33:28I mean, no, it sounds it is profitable because you just
- 33:31you're like, oh, I well, I like this one 'cause it's a it has a
- 33:33different. Oh, right.
- 33:35Well, well, the main body. Yeah, the main body.
- 33:37Yeah, so they're just producing one car and they're just
- 33:39changing like headlights. And shit, it's so annoying.
- 33:41Yeah, dude. But then anyway, so that was the
- 33:43point he was making. This is at extreme graphics, by
- 33:45the way. And we turn around and it's
- 33:47just, dude, there was so many people.
- 33:50Yeah, it was cool. Like, it was like hundreds of
- 33:53people just lined up on the streets, sick cars.
- 33:56And all the cars are like, pretty fitted.
- 33:58So all you're seeing is like wheels, yeah, all the way down
- 34:01the street and like the hauler with all the fucking charm cars.
- 34:05Like being that sevens day. Dude, no, this was no, this was
- 34:08Sevens Day. Way.
- 34:09Better there wasn't no, but like there wasn't some corny ass
- 34:12fucking that's. The only.
- 34:13Thing about like it was just a fucking drift.
- 34:17I mean car. And is good, but like there's a
- 34:20lot of it's a fucking public event.
- 34:22So there's a lot of bullshit they.
- 34:24Try they do try their hardest though, and they and they do
- 34:26make a pretty good. Event.
- 34:26Yeah, it's amazing. Event totally.
- 34:28You can never stop. You're never gonna.
- 34:29I'm not. Yeah.
- 34:30And and I'm not down playing sevens.
- 34:32Days. No, I'm just the best event we
- 34:34have here every. Year.
- 34:35The closest you're gonna get to whatever.
- 34:36Whatever we felt, yeah, Yeah. But but all I'm saying is since
- 34:39every, at least in my personal opinion, since it's what I liked
- 34:43and what I preferred, everything that was there.
- 34:46Yeah, the trailer with all the trauma.
- 34:48Cards no, we just walk up and and everyone was just I don't
- 34:51know if it was just you, but everyone was just there was just
- 34:55mad. The vibe was just beautiful.
- 34:57Like there was mad, like kindness and like welcome
- 35:02feeling. Second person we see Jed Davis.
- 35:03Jed Davis, right away, he's like he, I feel like he, he like went
- 35:07out of his way to fucking run over to us to be like, hey, you
- 35:09still doing that thing tonight? Making plays?
- 35:12I'm like OK. Like he's like, I already gave

- 35:49Last year was their first year and they came back again this
- 35:51year. Like what does that have to say?
- 35:53Like what does that? What does that tell you about
- 35:56what we got to go to and be a part of?
- 35:58Like people flew in from this shit.
- 36:00I might not know their names, but I know one of them is from
- 36:02Switzerland and one of them was from France and Rap is from
- 36:05Portugal. It's always crazy seeing the
- 36:06Japanese dudes just fucking wrenching on their cars and shit
- 36:08in the heads and you're like, these guys are literally from
- 36:10the other side of the world and they have their cars here.
- 36:12But you, you guys do the same thing.
- 36:15So the rest reciprocity, something like that is fucking
- 36:19sick. Look it up.
- 36:21That's a word. But that that's me at extreme
- 36:25graphics. I see Josh.

- 36:50And it was just like, they're literally, they all give you the
- 36:52same, yeah. Same, same vibe, super
- 36:54welcoming, but they're but like that after our conversations
- 36:57last year with Josh, like, I don't know, I just, I look at
- 37:00him as like a little bit of my family without the crazy
- 37:03bullshit that my family has to bring.
- 37:04Like it's just, it's just nice. It's nice.
- 37:08The Kuya. Yeah.
- 37:09But then I actually went to go find my other Kuya bro and I was
- 37:12trying to find Melvin the whole time.
- 37:14Did you, do you know who Melvin is?
- 37:15Did you meet Melvin? So there's this guy.

- 38:17Wait, what? You know you guys look alike,
- 38:19right? Wait, who?
- 38:20Is that so? Is that car?
- 38:22Is that Aaron's car? Oh yeah.
- 38:24Aaron that the the animal style car.
- 38:27Oh, I mess this up all the time. I do.
- 38:29Like. I've never fucking.
- 38:30I've never met. Him either.
- 38:32I only just met Julian at the track.
- 38:34Like on the last day, last 10 minutes we were there, I was
- 38:36like, yo, what's up man? I actually really love your
- 38:38stuff. And that was a funny.
- 38:39Story. I was sick.
- 38:40I'll talk about that later but fucking I'm like I call him Fun
- 38:44Frankie because I saw in a video he's funny.
- 38:48I don't know if it was just me but you guys can agree with me
- 38:53or not. So you and that guy Aaron from
- 38:57Animal Style look real really alike when y'all got the
- 38:59ponytail up. Yeah, yeah.
- 39:01He's taller. I'm not gonna say he might be
- 39:03better looking than you. That's crazy.
- 39:05I'm. Just playing.
- 39:07All right, I'm kidding. I would say he has a better
- 39:10looking car but it's not a 180SX so I can't.
- 39:14His car is crazy as. It is shit.
- 39:16Johnny just. Take Johnny was like saw you on
- 39:18the ground and was like, let me just.
- 39:19Look, yeah, everyone just kicks me on.
- 39:21It's not a 180 though, so I'm not going to say.
- 39:23No, but that. That that's.
- 39:24That car is just. That shit is fucking sick.
- 39:28Yeah, everything has. That's like.
- 39:30His touch on it? Animal.
- 39:31Style. Yeah, literally to AT.
- 39:33Like everything, all their cars just have their every little
- 39:36piece in them has like their own little touch to it.
- 39:38And like, it's just made me so like, I don't know, inspired to
- 39:43be like, damn, like next time I have something, maybe I should
- 39:46like think about it a little bit more and be like, maybe I could
- 39:49do this or this or this. So that car has been like that
- 39:52for a minute, right? Like he had that car, like I
- 39:55never saw it until that, I don't know, event, but then I went on
- 39:57his page and I was like. I've been seeing he.
- 39:59Did little things. Yeah, this car has been like
- 40:02this for like a year or maybe six months, something like that.
- 40:06But I guess it's just, we don't see it that often.
- 40:07But dude, the details. That's what I'm saying.
- 40:10I feel like maybe they just honed, he just honed in on the
- 40:13details. I'm not really, I'm not really
- 40:17up to date on what people are doing, so I don't want to say
- 40:19that it looked. Origin combat eye.
- 40:21He's got the little eyeballs I usually.
- 40:22Don't like combat eyes or I should say wombat eyes, but that
- 40:28shit looks good on that car. Man, it was just they went with
- 40:30the like. It just looks like he went for a
- 40:32look and committed fully to that look and like Malcolm, you gotta
- 40:36appreciate. Oh man.
- 40:38Oh the jams. What's funny is, is like I'm
- 40:41telling go. Check it out.
- 40:42Malcolm Instagram. Yeah, what's his name?
- 40:44I know that's. Aaron but sideways hatch,
- 40:46sideways hatch. But that is, I always confuse
- 40:50him and I feel like a dumb ass because I feel like everybody
- 40:52knows who they are. And put that together, he don't
- 40:55got a hatch. Maybe he had a.
- 40:56Hatch I confuse him. And what's his face from the
- 40:59team all the time like? I don't know any of the.
- 41:02There's like two other guys that that were in Japan and I always
- 41:05fucking I, I literally confused them while we were in Japan.
- 41:08I just, I just know again, that there was somebody on that team
- 41:11that looks really like fucking man.
- 41:14Yeah, Julian really is. I just call him Fun Frankie
- 41:16because like, I feel like he would be fun just based on his
- 41:19judges judgment. Damn.
- 41:21Like look how sick that shit is. Damn, he's got the headlight
- 41:23with the fucking kanji on it too.
- 41:26That shit is sick. It's the only time I'll take.
- 41:29I wish you could. See the details, but you can't
- 41:31see him here. Mother of two.
- 41:33Attack. Photos.
- 41:36Mother of fuck dude, that. I thought his car flipped.
- 41:40Yeah, I know so. What?
- 41:43You got to see the combat eye but it's so hard to see because
- 41:45it's a little eyeball bro. Palmer was driving his.
- 41:49Fucking his butt. Off his.
- 41:50Car. How are you not watching nothing
- 41:52bro? I was.
- 41:53Palmer was. Killing it.
- 41:54Man, that one J was barking. I wish we could do a bolting
- 41:57cage over here. See the door?
- 41:59Drive. I mean, see the door jams, how
- 42:01they have like vinyl on there. Yeah, I see.
- 42:03But the vinyl matches the skirt, so when the door is up, yeah, it
- 42:06looks fucking awesome. What do you got to do to drive E
- 42:09town with a bolting cage? Because I just love Cusco cages.
- 42:13I don't. Yeah, we'll figure it out.
- 42:15Dude, that is. There's a way we talked
- 42:17depending on the list. He said he he said there's a
- 42:19way. Again, just seeing it, it's just
- 42:20like somebody's vision and somebody's creativity out real
- 42:25time. I just I didn't know what to say
- 42:27and I wasn't going to try to go up to him and be like, dude like
- 42:29this is real sick. He.
- 42:31Probably got sponsored. Yeah.
- 42:32Yellow speed. That's sick.
- 42:34I mean, I'll take any hook up at this point.
- 42:37Yeah, I mean, drifting is drifting, you know?
- 42:39Well, not even that you can get anything rebelled.
- 42:42I want to fucking go make some cool shit.
- 42:44Now, yeah, we'll never find that head like Malcolm.
- 42:45Don't worry about it. Yeah.
- 42:47But like, there's that, there's the end plates on the wing that
- 42:51were like acrylic or something. Oh, and the the all right, so
- 42:56you say you're looking at an end plate like this is the end plate
- 42:58on the wing. This part, what would you call
- 43:00it? The perimeter or whatever it is
- 43:01of it that had like some kind of paint or something on the end,
- 43:05like vinyl? Dude, it was fucking insane.
- 43:07Fuck. Like everything I wanted to do
- 43:09that too, like I'm you're talking about the plane like
- 43:12this part yes, fuck, I literally had an idea that had that.
- 43:17That's what I'm saying. Like I feel like everything I I
- 43:19think is cool, like, and I'm like, I'm really thinking
- 43:21outside the box here, guys, and I'm not gonna tell anybody done.
- 43:24Everything. It's done and I'm like, trust
- 43:26me, I'm an idiot. That guy just did everything.
- 43:28I'm an idiot. Someone has done something at
- 43:30one point you can never do. 'Cause I wanted to, I wanted to
- 43:33do something, something. Else Oh yeah, it doesn't.
- 43:36You know, everyone's done everything.
- 43:37Just do what you like and the car will come out fine.
- 43:40That's what I'm doing. I'm just.
- 43:41Just usually. I can't say that for everyone,
- 43:43but. I'm just doing what the.
- 43:44Taste The car will come out right?
- 43:45Yeah. We'll see.
- 43:47I I, I definitely, without sounding like I'm bouncing on it
- 43:52too hard, that car definitely did something to me where I was
- 43:54like, fuck yeah, I saw it and I was like, damn, I want to go
- 43:58fucking work. I'm on shit right now.
- 44:00Like I'm, what am I doing here? Like why am I here?

- 44:21bit, said hi to them, ran into this duck, there's a duck there,
- 44:25Aflac duck. He was there last year, too.
- 44:28I think it's a girl they're calling her.
- 44:30Sorry, I think I actually asked if it was Miss.
- 44:32Yeah, Miss Duck. So then we did all of that and
- 44:34then we went to the fucking grid life flares, bro.

- 47:17We grabbed Jed Davis, I ran into and that's.
- 47:19When we went into the car and just and and so under my like, I
- 47:23was like, OK, Carl obviously knows Jed Davis.
- 47:25Like they must be really good. Friends, I only know Jed Davis
- 47:27from the Internet. Talking about him and stuff.
- 47:29And I was like, oh, he's got to know him pretty well.
- 47:31And then we start getting in the car and we're leaving and Carl's
- 47:34going off because Carl had a couple beers by this point and
- 47:36he's saying some shit. And I just hear Jed Davis in the
- 47:39back, like, I don't know if I'm going to be able to match Carl's
- 47:42freak. And I was like, oh, yeah, I was
- 47:45like, I thought you guys were good friends.
- 47:46He's like, and Carl's like, I pretty much met him right now.
- 47:48And I was. Like, I just met him.
- 47:49Oh, OK. Well, I didn't really know Jed
- 47:51before then. Like, we really just talk on the
- 47:53Internet. I just.
- 47:53Buy by the same people though where it's like if you just meet
- 47:57them right then and there, like you can hang out.
- 47:59He's just a good. Dude, I know he's a good dude.
- 48:01Like, 'cause I had, 'cause we're friends.
- 48:02Like all my friends is good dudes and girls.
- 48:04Like they're, we're, we're good people.
- 48:06Had to show Jed Davis the jersey slide when we were there.
- 48:08Oh my fucking God. So.
- 48:10I crossed 5 lanes no. No, no, no, no, no.
- 48:13Frankie's driving and and the highways in Chicago are pretty
- 48:18wide. I'm talking like Frankie's
- 48:20whipping like and then cutting up.
- 48:24We were about to miss an exit. I'm like, oh, hold on.
- 48:26Boom triangle right through the triangle.
- 48:29That's when the Jersey really comes out in you, when you're
- 48:31like somewhere, like you're like, look at this fucking
- 48:33highway right here. Look at all.
- 48:34These maneuvers because Frankie just took ten shots.
- 48:37And then you just hear Jet Davis in the back.
- 48:39Damn you fucking whipping this shit.
- 48:40It's. Like, 'cause they don't, there's
- 48:42no heavy shit back here, they don't understand.
- 48:45Like when we're driving home from there, it's like not you
- 48:48could just fucking stay in the left lane and go 90 and it's
- 48:50fucking sick. And like you drive over here, if
- 48:53you want to drive and speed, you have to fucking, you have to
- 48:57fucking weave in and out and do crazy shit.
- 49:00Not like no hesy. And not to mention the speed
- 49:01limit here is always 55. I don't know about.
- 49:03Yeah. So you're about Illinois?
- 49:04But 55. But you could go 85 and you
- 49:08won't have a problem. Here I feel like, Oh, nice
- 49:11catch, Carl. That was nice.
- 49:14So it used to be you could go 70 and you wouldn't have a problem
- 49:18after COVID. You could just do whatever.
- 49:20The fuck? I think you could do whatever.
- 49:22No, I think cars got faster and they got able to cruise at but I
- 49:25noticed. It specifically after COVID.
- 49:28Less cops on the road, less speed traps and people are
- 49:30flying. I've got 90 past the state
- 49:33trooper and they haven't done anything before.
- 49:35I do that on the regular. The nut shit is you see a
- 49:38fucking Toyota Tercel doing 85 miles an hour for like 45
- 49:43minutes. Or 35G express van going 95
- 49:46miles an hour bro. What I do in the fit every day
- 49:48and that thing is a piece of fucking shit.
- 49:50Dude, I it's I got the whole the whole time.
- 49:53By the way, this van we're Frankie is fucking Wheeling this
- 49:58hey? That was the extended test
- 49:59drive. I had to fucking put it to the
- 50:01test. Frankie's Wheeling this van and
- 50:02then guess what bro, we're leaving the extreme graphics
- 50:06place to go to that pre meet thing.
- 50:07Oh no, Frankie had me loving this van for a little bit.
- 50:12You were. You had me hooked for a little
- 50:14bit because I was comfortable. It was sick.
- 50:16Like, cool. Then I started it.
- 50:18Out and then he's didn't fucking.
- 50:19I get back to the van to go to the pre meet and Frankie's just.
- 50:24We need fucking oil. I was like.
- 50:26I was like, where's the oil? I'm like, it's a Chevy.
- 50:28You got to know that though. No, when I heard a noise, I
- 50:31heard a tapping noise and I was like, OK, we're probably low on
- 50:33oil, really bad. And then I checked the oil and
- 50:36it was perfect. And I was like, OK, what's this?
- 50:40Short man every. Step of it it's.
- 50:42It's worse than my truck. My truck taps but not like that.
- 50:45They they always do. I wouldn't worry about it.
- 50:47Yeah, I I think it's a lifter. Could be that's what they all
- 50:50fucking say. Sounds like it's a lifter.
- 50:52It goes away when it's hot. It's a six point if anyone knows
- 50:55it's a 6.0 vortex engine. So if anyone knows what that
- 50:58could be, but it it gets warm and it's gone.
- 51:01So I was like, all right. And I mean, the, the main point
- 51:05here is we got all the way back and it didn't burn any oil.
- 51:09And I was like, that's. Pretty impressive.
- 51:10That's that's good sign. That's some good sign right
- 51:12there. I would buy it.
- 51:13Yeah, so like it needs a paint job?
- 51:15But who cares? Whatever.
- 51:17Oh, we gotta grab the car here. Paint job.
- 51:19Bro my little eyes gun fucking beefs you gotta be out there.
- 51:21Fucking got to use the slowest fucking activator reducer they
- 51:25got. So we get your Davis back, do

- 57:25All we're doing is driving on the highway and he's in fourth.
- 57:28So he's like, we're sitting here, I'm in fourth just so I
- 57:31could hear it, man. Like this is and I'm just
- 57:35sitting there like fucking like this motherfucker just read my
- 57:38brain like, and because I'm sitting there, I'm trying not to

- 58:23was a nice little drive, like telling me exactly where it was.
- 58:26He was like, he really wished he was able to take us around the
- 58:28lake like that. He said that that was really
- 58:30pretty. That's like a different way to.

- 58:40We're working. Bro Front Street said that they
- 58:42ate a shit load of it. Because they starved the whole
- 58:45way there, but they don't want to eat that.
- 58:47The best part was that we saw Josh on the road on the way
- 58:50there, Josh Elise, and we're like, oh, Josh would probably
- 58:52give him food somewhere else. And he was.
- 58:53He was. He was.

- 1:01:09Now to proceed ones. Yeah, where we were in proximity
- 1:01:12to a car. Yeah.

- 1:02:41They're sick. I don't want an S15.
- 1:02:42I want a 180. Everyone wants a one. 80 I never
- 1:02:44care about S fifteens either, but lately, after going to pan,
- 1:02:48that was when it I wanted, that was when it.
- 1:02:49Fucked me up. I like one of these I.
- 1:02:51Wanted an Japan though. The S15 fucked me up.
- 1:02:53But I will show you the S15 that I like because I'm not going to
- 1:02:56talk about it on here because if I talk about it on here, for
- 1:02:59some reason, whatever I'm talking about like blows up and
- 1:03:04I I'm trying to not do that, no. Show me the S15, let's go.
- 1:03:09No, I'm not saying that it blows up because I say it.
- 1:03:11I just it freaks me out about the simulation because now it's
- 1:03:13going to be on my. Home show me another 86 because
- 1:03:14I want to see another. The other day.
- 1:03:16Oh, my phone's dead. Look at that 86.
- 1:03:17I can't even show you I. Want to see another cool 1?
- 1:03:19Chase Baze 1 was pretty cool. The phone is dead.
- 1:03:21Like like new 8/6? Core.
- 1:03:23Not even. Not even.
- 1:03:24That's a yours, kid. On his on Chase's.
- 1:03:26Yeah, it looked good. It looked good.
- 1:03:28I like those cars just sprayed. One of those kids, I didn't even
- 1:03:30know he had one. I I just, you didn't see it
- 1:03:32driving. No, the white one.
- 1:03:35Yours could. No, I kind of want to see this.
- 1:03:36Though pretty sure it has AK engine it sounded like I don't
- 1:03:39know. Dude.
- 1:03:40Oh, really? Yeah.
- 1:03:41The only S15 I'm buying ever. God forbid I get some sort of
- 1:03:47money. Ha.
- 1:03:49But I would go to the Philippines and I would buy a
- 1:03:52left hand Dr. S15 Spec R and bring it here.
- 1:03:55There is it. That's it.
- 1:03:57They converted them or they sold them.
- 1:03:59I don't know, I don't care. It's an S15 dash that's left
- 1:04:01hand drive and it's a spec car and it's and it's sold 14 stuff
- 1:04:05no. No, they probably converted.
- 1:04:07But what about the dash dude? In in Dubai they literally.
- 1:04:10Yeah, Dubai. Yeah, Dubai.
- 1:04:12They they make them left like R30 fours and.
- 1:04:15Then we're pulling it from there and bring it in here.
- 1:04:17There's no way that anyone in the Philippines is doing it
- 1:04:19that. Yo if they did that in a clean
- 1:04:21way I'd be on board for dude it. Looks it's it's perfect.
- 1:04:24But you gotta make the dash and everything, so obviously they
- 1:04:26have to produce it. Then then I'm like.
- 1:04:29You've seen the R30 fours there, They look like a factory car.
- 1:04:32Yeah like if they can do that, damn that shit would be sick.
- 1:04:34I do fucking hate right hand. Drive 15 left hand drive from
- 1:04:37the Philippines. Are you kidding me?
- 1:04:39Yeah, that's the one thing I hate about GTRS too.

- 1:08:43ground. There's Tom.
- 1:08:47And then Josh looks at me and goes, there's some of that
- 1:08:49fucking 27 year old energy that I was fucking talking about.

- 1:08:54Think so. I didn't even know Tom was 28.

- 1:09:09Fucking made of money. I was like, he's been drifting
- 1:09:12nonstop for fucking years. Look at me.
- 1:09:15Look at me yo, do you still? Have that chassis.
- 1:09:18You have the chassis, right? Yeah.
- 1:09:20Yeah. OK.
- 1:09:20Someone, someone today said you didn't have it.
- 1:09:22I was like, who? I don't know.
- 1:09:24They're like, oh, Johnny's. Going to get you'll never catch
- 1:09:25me without a 180SX ever in my life.
- 1:09:29Yo screenshot that screenshot that someone record that.
- 1:09:34Fucking hey, Jack. Clip that.
- 1:09:36Yeah, clip that. I've had two and ever since I
- 1:09:39was 18 years old, I haven't had a hatchback.
- 1:09:43I I crash the one. The next day I go buy another
- 1:09:45one. I have two for a little bit.
- 1:09:47I give one to James and. What's your favorite part about
- 1:09:49the 180SX? It looks like a Ferrari.
- 1:09:52There's no one. It looks like a Ferrari.
- 1:09:55OK, what's your second favorite part?
- 1:09:59I don't know, Probably just like the way the body comes, like
- 1:10:04what are we talking here? Like favorite part of?
- 1:10:06Anything. Like, I don't know, man, it's.
- 1:10:10Just like you were saying something, go for it.
- 1:10:13The way like the front bumper comes into like the roof line
- 1:10:18and everything and it just swoops back down.
- 1:10:20It's so smooth. Like you look at it and it's.
- 1:10:23You got one right there. You can use that.
- 1:10:24Yeah, like look like straight up and down.
- 1:10:27It almost looks like a little jump, you know, like you're
- 1:10:30going to hit it on your bike or skateboard or something like
- 1:10:32like down. Like so maybe you relate to it
- 1:10:34so much because you think you can jump it.
- 1:10:36Maybe, maybe. I mean, it's just the only car I
- 1:10:41ever really liked. I'm going to be honest, I don't
- 1:10:44know what's so perfect. Because you got one when you
- 1:10:46were tail. Lights are amazing, there's no
- 1:10:48way around that. Like.
- 1:10:49You got one when you were young as hell, so.
- 1:10:52I mean once I saved up $1000 I bought 1.
- 1:10:56Damn, it used to be nice like. That so you knew of that car
- 1:10:58like when you were 15? Younger than that, really.
- 1:11:03I was staring at Rev Gasm's car when I was in like fucking 6th
- 1:11:07grade. Like in computer class, Like I
- 1:11:10was showing like look at this. They're like, who the fuck
- 1:11:12cares? I'm like, look at this, look,
- 1:11:14look like, look at. It like the the the videos and
- 1:11:17shit on. Yeah, just every like I would
- 1:11:19just type in street drifting and it would come up and like I
- 1:11:21would just be bugging out like. Damn how?
- 1:11:24Who got you into St. Drifting when you were in 6th
- 1:11:26grade? Substitute teachers I don't.
- 1:11:29Know bullshit I. Think like I probably just came
- 1:11:32across drifting like somehow on YouTube when I was young and
- 1:11:37then I would just like look up 240SX and like I just knew.
- 1:11:41All I really knew about was like risky devil and stuff.
- 1:11:43Yeah, I didn't know about option video or anything.
- 1:11:46I just knew like American St. Drifting.
- 1:11:48SR20 or KA? Nah, don't ask him that.
- 1:11:52That shit might have offended Sr. 20 Yeah, I get why people do
- 1:11:56KA, but I mean it's a little silly it doesn't Rev. Yeah, it
- 1:12:01doesn't. It's like a truck motor.
- 1:12:04But you think about it, 180 SX is really the best because
- 1:12:07they've made it the longest. They made that shit for 10
- 1:12:10years. Yeah.
- 1:12:11They didn't make S fourteens for 10 years.
- 1:12:13They didn't make like any type of Sylvia for 10 years like.
- 1:12:16Yeah, they changed it every five years is.
- 1:12:20It the perfect car, that is. 1998, I think some people say
- 1:12:2399, I think it's 98. What the last year they made it?
- 1:12:2798, I think, yeah. Type X was 6:00 to 8:00.
- 1:12:31There might be like some produce 99.
- 1:12:33Who knows though. No, we'll ever.
- 1:12:35Know Yeah man, I don't. It's my favorite drift car too
- 1:12:38for sure. What was the what did we do the
- 1:12:41morning after Lee's? Dude was that final bout.
- 1:12:44No, we were. We woke up early.
- 1:12:46We saw Bryson. Bro, we went to fucking Mike
- 1:12:48Jones's house. Come on.
- 1:12:50Oh fuck. I forgot, I thought that was way
- 1:12:54after that. You don't remember waking up
- 1:12:55early. Oh my God, wait, because we woke
- 1:12:58up early. Bryson was there.
- 1:13:01First of all, what I want to say is last year, the year before, I
- 1:13:04woke up early and Johnny was like alone on Josh's trailer
- 1:13:09just smoking a cigarette. And this year, lo and behold, I
- 1:13:13wake up and Johnny's alone smoking a cigarette on Josh's
- 1:13:16trailer. And also now my friend Bryson
- 1:13:20showed up with his with our other friend Gus, and they had
- 1:13:24driven up here from fucking Georgia.
- 1:13:27And I was like, look, if you need a place to sleep, you can't
- 1:13:30sleep in my hotel room, in our hotel room.
- 1:13:32But the parking lot's pretty safe and they're just chilling
- 1:13:35in the fucking trunk. So I find now we link up with
- 1:13:38Bryson as well. Now it's a full intern or it's a
- 1:13:42full continental link up now. No one is from the surrounding.
- 1:13:47No one is from around. Yeah, so now.
- 1:13:50Well, Martino was actually. Yeah, Martina International link
- 1:13:53up then. So then where did we go?
- 1:13:56We go to go do a podcast with Mike Jones, right?

- 1:14:24some reason? He was going to make me fucking

- 1:14:30The fuck is wrong? Why would you do this?
- 1:14:32All right, we won't spoil those, but shit, that one is he.
- 1:14:36Was actually going to make me cry.
- 1:14:37He gave me gifts. Last year it was the Josh one
- 1:14:40and this year it's the Mike Jones one.
- 1:14:41That's. Like because I, I look in the
- 1:14:43bag and I was like, this is these are things that like he.
- 1:14:48Gave us gifts within the 1st 15 minutes.
- 1:14:50Yeah. Sentimental.
- 1:14:51After I called him Captain America bro.
- 1:14:53Like. He really does look like Captain
- 1:14:55America, which I don't think he minds.
- 1:14:56I can't. I don't even know what Mike
- 1:14:59looks like right now. Like I, I'm trying to picture
- 1:15:02Mike and I'm like, it's literally Chris Evans.
- 1:15:04Yeah. Is that his name?
- 1:15:05Chris Evans. It's Mike Jones.
- 1:15:08No, I'm saying like. Oh, that's the name of the

- 1:15:38car is a 180. So he gets.
- 1:15:40Yeah. And I was like, OK, now it all
- 1:15:42makes sense. Because it's just the wave.
- 1:15:43Something about. That the wave style, it's like a
- 1:15:46180, very like. Everyone loves 180 that knows
- 1:15:49anything about any sort of styling or it.

- 1:17:54Good. No, that's sick.
- 1:17:55That was like, honestly fire. At all of them, at all the video
- 1:17:59I said Jet Davis was the most fun.
- 1:18:01It was, but that one was the best setup.
- 1:18:05Dude, it looked so I was. Like, yeah, his car's.
- 1:18:08There no the Lee. One too, though, the Lee one.
- 1:18:10The Lee one was good, but I set it up so it wasn't.
- 1:18:12Lee looked like he was about to say, like, my name's Lee.
- 1:18:15I've been drifting for 16 years. Yeah.
- 1:18:18But like this one, we had Malcolm and Eddie setting up all
- 1:18:21the cameras and so. Everything was on point.
- 1:18:23Dude, everything was like I. Had a coffee in me immediately.
- 1:18:26They were on the couch. Bro bro, bro bro bro.
- 1:18:29Perfect, Malcolm goes. Do you know what I'm about to
- 1:18:33say? You asked.
- 1:18:34No, I don't. Malcolm goes, Malcolm's setting
- 1:18:37up. He just stops and goes, Oh my
- 1:18:40God. I was about to say, hey, Chris.
- 1:18:42Hey Mike, do you happen to have some floodlights or something
- 1:18:45like that? Just one floodlight.
- 1:18:48You got any floodlights? I'm like.
- 1:18:50What the fuck? But then you fucking asked for
- 1:18:52like, hey Mike, do you have any small tables?
- 1:18:55And then he. He comes back with the most
- 1:18:57perfect night stand for the table, like it was like a
- 1:18:59antique night. I know he's got antiques in a in
- 1:19:02a fucking thing back. There he pulled up with this
- 1:19:04table and and it. I'm gonna describe this table.
- 1:19:06It's exactly what you would think a round ashtray would sit
- 1:19:09on. Yeah, OK, like and I almost
- 1:19:12wanted to be like can I smoke on in here?
- 1:19:14Like it it felt like I was in a lounge bro, like I would have
- 1:19:18paid money to be there. That was crazy and and the couch
- 1:19:21that he had in there was not a shitty couch bro.
- 1:19:24This shit was. Like nice Princess.
- 1:19:26And I were like, you know, that couch is really nice.
- 1:19:29And she was like, yeah, this is a really nice couch.
- 1:19:31But that being said, like, we talked about money, we talked
- 1:19:35about his, what he does for work.
- 1:19:38Oh, yeah, dude, he's just like us.
- 1:19:40Like, yeah, he has a family. Yeah, but he only cares about
- 1:19:44drifting. That's his hobby.
- 1:19:45Yeah. Like drifting is his hobby.
- 1:19:47That's it. He doesn't.
- 1:19:49Like anything. Else.
- 1:19:50Not really. No.
- 1:19:50He he's like, I can't. He's like, I can't.
- 1:19:52Yeah. Like I dedicate my whole life to
- 1:19:54to this. You think of it as like how Josh
- 1:19:56is and everything it is. Exactly like how Josh is.
- 1:19:58Yeah. So it's like.
- 1:20:00But the way Mike is, he's just so, I don't know, man.
- 1:20:04He was just so positive. It was just really hard to not
- 1:20:07be like, smiling in that fucking.
- 1:20:08That whole anyone from the Midwest is like that bro.
- 1:20:11It was mad cloudy. Here is mean.
- 1:20:12We're all mean to people. It was.
- 1:20:13So cloudy out. But I swear to you, when I
- 1:20:15picture the inside of Mike's house, I'm just picturing like
- 1:20:18that fucking like he comes home and he's like, honey, I'm home.
- 1:20:21Literally that's. How it feels like and the sun is
- 1:20:26like fucking really orange. And he's got the Toyota.
- 1:20:29Whatever he. Had a GX bro, we had a.
- 1:20:32I lifted up on some fucking. I was like, shit, yeah, man,
- 1:20:35Mike totally gets me that. Whole day was sick.
- 1:20:37We leave bro, he let me drive his.
- 1:20:39Car, Yeah, Hold on, hold on, hold on.
- 1:20:41I'm not done. I'm not done.
- 1:20:41I'm not done. More more, more Mike praise real
- 1:20:44quick. More Mike praise real quick.
- 1:20:45Because as soon as we showed up. First, talk about the event.
- 1:20:49The whole time, The whole time. Shit, how long have we been?
- 1:20:51We got, we got to, we got to hurry it up.
- 1:20:53Fuck. All right, all right, well, hold
- 1:20:55on now. We were sitting in there.
- 1:20:56I look in the corner and I'm like Choppington.
- 1:21:00Oh, here we go. Dude, I, I looked at at Mike and
- 1:21:04I was like, you look like you would have a Harley and you
- 1:21:07would probably look really cool on the Harley too.
- 1:21:09And I look in the corner and he's got helmets and like little
- 1:21:12posters of like shit that say like Harley-Davidson on it or
- 1:21:14whatever. I'm like, dude, no fucking way.
- 1:21:18This is where Frankie brings me because again, I still don't
- 1:21:20know where. I don't ever know where we're
- 1:21:21going or what we're doing at all whatsoever.
- 1:21:25So when we pulled up and we're doing all this and that, I was
- 1:21:27fucking geeking. And then I find out Mike's in a
- 1:21:29body work and shit. And then he, he's given me all
- 1:21:32of this advice and shit. And then he, you know, gives me
- 1:21:34the gifts and I'm like, what? The fuck like.
- 1:21:36Dude, he was sick. I was like awesome Princess, got
- 1:21:39to go play with the cat and like hang out with Mike's daughter
- 1:21:44and his and his wife or his lady and like, I don't know, it's
- 1:21:48like really perfect. Eric Ryan just showed up.
- 1:21:50Just shows up. He's like, Oh yeah, I know him.
- 1:21:52I mean, we're, we're good friends, yeah.
- 1:21:53When the. Where you are when the podcast
- 1:21:55starts, He's like Eric, yeah, we grew up here, bro.
- 1:21:58He he knows exactly where he is. Frankie texts him, shows up.
- 1:22:01Fucking 20 minutes. Later, Where you at?
- 1:22:03We're at fucking Mike's house. He's like, I'm on my way.
- 1:22:06I'm like, all right, cool. It's dude.
- 1:22:07It's like we're on the other side of the, not on the outside
- 1:22:09of the country, but we're in the middle of the country and
- 1:22:11everyone's just, you know, just call someone who's meet up with
- 1:22:14them crazy. And then he had then then he had
- 1:22:18like on the last after the machine check that car was
- 1:22:22idling for a while and the whole time I'm like, why the fuck this
- 1:22:25isn't like he he could turn it off.
- 1:22:27I'm not going to be like, Hey, you could turn you want.
- 1:22:28Me to turn it off. We were getting ready to leave.
- 1:22:29And we were getting ready to leave and he goes.
- 1:22:31So you guys are going that way. You should drive my car to
- 1:22:36Frankie. No, he didn't say that.
- 1:22:37First. He goes, let's go for a ride and
- 1:22:40I'll drop you off where? Wherever.
- 1:22:42And I was like, OK, cool. And then he's like back in the
- 1:22:43car. But everything I was like,
- 1:22:44you're driving. He's like, no, you're driving.
- 1:22:46I was like, I guess I. Guess so, but you seen the video
- 1:22:51on Eddie's story or on Eddie's post?
- 1:22:53Bro Frankie was. Yeah, it was.
- 1:22:56It was cool, man it. Was it?
- 1:22:58Just looked weird to see you driving a car, same setup.
- 1:23:00That, well, not exact same, but close.
- 1:23:02I mean it's TDO 6. It's yeah, it's pretty close.
- 1:23:05Same wastegate setup too. Which is funny because he looked
- 1:23:08at photos of how we ran. How you did it?
- 1:23:09Yeah, I remember him asking me. The only downside was he had to
- 1:23:12get rid of AC, but you know, it is what it is.
- 1:23:15But that car had AC in it. Yeah, damn.
- 1:23:18Yeah, so it was a wild. It was cool, man.
- 1:23:22It was a wild time. Shout out to Mike, man.
- 1:23:24Dude, thank you so much. That was that was a really.
- 1:23:26But. Now we're going to the track.
- 1:23:28We're going to the track and. Went to Milwaukee. 1st we went
- 1:23:31to Milwaukee first. Fuck.
- 1:23:32We had Fuel Cafe, which we did last year, which I liked.
- 1:23:35It was Mike's recommendation. We wanted to go to Harley, but
- 1:23:38it's not enough time. It was good too, like I like, I
- 1:23:40like going there. The lady fucked up something a.
- 1:23:43Lot. She was way too long.
- 1:23:46She was. Trying.
- 1:23:47She was trying so. Don't worry, we got her on
- 1:23:48video. Damn, yeah.
- 1:23:51It's funny. She did like accents and she
- 1:23:53didn't write a single goddamn thing.
- 1:23:54She. Was entertaining, but she was
- 1:23:55terrible. I like that bro.
- 1:23:57There's like burnout like people do burnouts like on the bars I
- 1:24:02guess. Fucking place is crazy.
- 1:24:03And like during the summer, like when they have like when they
- 1:24:05have like meats and shit or whatever they have there.

- 1:24:46now. We're going to stop stop in
- 1:24:48Milwaukee for lunch. Because I wanted to buy a
- 1:24:50fucking yeah. The whole time you and Lewis
- 1:24:52both wanted to buy a motorcycles.
- 1:24:54The whole time though, I was really fucking jonesing for like

- 1:24:59Yeah, Josh is my travel guy. We're just straight to it.
- 1:25:03Oh yeah. No, we just, we just go.
- 1:25:06No funny business. No, they're, I mean, we're
- 1:25:09fucking cracking jokes all the time when we're driving, but.
- 1:25:12Yeah. I mean, when you're driving the
- 1:25:13event, it's obviously a lot different.
- 1:25:14Yeah, you have to. You have to be there pretty
- 1:25:16early and everything. So dude, we get to.
- 1:25:18The event, Josh, is never early for that, Yeah.
- 1:25:20So. We're kind of on the same time,
- 1:25:23but yeah. We get to the event and what did
- 1:25:26we do? So so this is oh, we get to the
- 1:25:28track start. Getting a little a little fucked
- 1:25:30up because we spent way too much time with Mike and going to fuel
- 1:25:33cut and doing all that shit because our waitress was fucking
- 1:25:35taking two hours to get our order in.
- 1:25:37And then we get there and I'm like, fuck, Sun's going down.
- 1:25:40It looks like they're going to start closing this place up.
- 1:25:43And we had to do a podcast with Dennis, with Dennis the Menace
- 1:25:46at the track. That was the plan.
- 1:25:48But I didn't talk to Simba yet. I don't think so.
- 1:25:50I was like, yo, can I do a podcast in one of these things?
- 1:25:52He's like, yeah, they're trying to shut it down.
- 1:25:53I was like, fuck, OK. And in my head, I'm like, I'm
- 1:25:56not trying to drag all these people to a podcast right now.
- 1:25:59So I was like, what can I do? I was like, all right, let's do
- 1:26:01this. I was like, Dennis, can we do
- 1:26:03this in your hotel room? He's like, I don't see why not.
- 1:26:07I'm like, all right, cool. And then I was pretty on point,
- 1:26:12right? I thought it was pretty good.
- 1:26:14It was bro. He's about to be in New Jersey.
- 1:26:16Yeah, what? Dave, don't get me started.
- 1:26:18I wish we could go to that shit, kind of, but whatever.
- 1:26:21Yeah. So and he said yes.
- 1:26:23I said OK, we're splitting up. Me, Carl, Malcolm are going with
- 1:26:26Dennis in his car. IS yes so he has a 6 speed IS2
- 1:26:31Shout out Dennis man this guy was.
- 1:26:32He's like, you can come in my car, but like it's not
- 1:26:36comfortable. It doesn't have a radio.
- 1:26:37I'm like, OK, I don't think we care about the radio.
- 1:26:40And then like we get it's a full blown drift car.
- 1:26:42Like it looks like a drift car. It's slammed.
- 1:26:45Yeah, I've seen it. I'm like, I'm like, fuck, this
- 1:26:46is going to be crazy. We get in it, we start driving
- 1:26:49down the street and I'm like. Smooth as fuck this.
- 1:26:50Shit's smooth as hell. It doesn't even feel like it's
- 1:26:53lowered. Yeah, stands up.
- 1:26:55I don't. Know it was so.
- 1:26:57Weird. Silver's.
- 1:26:59Yeah, Silver's. Suspension it was good.
- 1:27:01So we get to Borders, you know, the original hotel that everyone
- 1:27:04would go to and we and we walk in and I'm like, yo, ask him if
- 1:27:09we can use this, this fucking what is it?
- 1:27:11Conference room. Conference.
- 1:27:12Huge conference room. So boom, we use the conference
- 1:27:15room. Man, that's sick.
- 1:27:16Yeah, and it was the first time we ever did that in a pretty
- 1:27:19legit setting. Sound was good, right?
- 1:27:21Now it was sound was sound was beautiful, probably Yeah,
- 1:27:23perfect because it was great. The noise was like, damn,
- 1:27:27there's furniture in. There his voice would be.
- 1:27:29I know exactly, yeah. His voice was so like it was
- 1:27:34hard not to like hear what he was saying.
- 1:27:36Like I was literally just. Like his voice is amazing.
- 1:27:38Yeah, definitely the best. Shout out to Dennis.
- 1:27:40Another awesome human. The best.
- 1:27:42I can't. I can't even imitate fucking.
- 1:27:44It's hard to imitate him because he's my.
- 1:27:46Throat. It hurts to try to get my voice
- 1:27:48I love, but here's another. And his cadence is very unique.
- 1:27:51Dude, his his story was hilarious, like it was just nice
- 1:27:56to like actually talk to him for once rather than just yeah,
- 1:27:59we're we were acquaintances and and friends from just passerby
- 1:28:02just 'cause he's always just in a good mood.
- 1:28:04So I. Really wanted to know his story.
- 1:28:06It's hard not to be friends with somebody who's who's always just
- 1:28:09as pleasant as he is around people.
- 1:28:11So like, But then I actually got to talk to him a little bit.
- 1:28:14So now I'm like, oh hell yeah. Now when I see him, I.
- 1:28:16For those that don't know, Dennis the Menace is the is the
- 1:28:19is the final about hype man. He's always on the line.
- 1:28:21He's on grid. He's a, he's a grid worker.
- 1:28:23He's he's sending people down with the flag.
- 1:28:25He's dancing the whole time. He's usually dressed up in some
- 1:28:27crazy. Outfit, I asked him.
- 1:28:28I was like, you get sore, like you probably get sore as hell.
- 1:28:31And he was like, Nope, I'm like, OK, she.
- 1:28:36Yeah, he always said. I mean she.
- 1:28:38I don't get sword. Yeah, yeah, Dennis is the man.
- 1:28:40And she was funny as well the whole time we.
- 1:28:44Started talking about music too and stuff like that.
- 1:28:46That was cool. That must have been so
- 1:28:47intimidating. He was sitting in the middle of
- 1:28:50a table and he had. The cameras all.
- 1:28:52Cameras just pointed at him and I was like, he's probably just
- 1:28:56sitting there like. I was thinking the same thing.
- 1:28:58I was like, this is really nerve wracking for people if they get
- 1:29:01nervous at all because it's like you're literally right in the
- 1:29:03middle of us and you have all the cameras facing you and a
- 1:29:05wall. I was like, it's, it's kind of
- 1:29:07like you're being interrogated. To be honest, and doesn't these
- 1:29:10people like you don't really know these people that well
- 1:29:12either? But he was so good, like right
- 1:29:14off the bat he's just like on. Yo, he was spot.
- 1:29:16What were you guys doing Friday night?
- 1:29:18What'd y'all do? I went to the bowling alley.

- 1:30:32his hat on, his cowboy hat. And we're like, oh damn.
- 1:30:36Like what the fuck? Like some older lady?
- 1:30:39And so we go over there, we start talking to him and.
- 1:30:43He's like, yeah, there's. She's from the same town my
- 1:30:47grandparents are from. They're just talking all the
- 1:30:48time. She's an actual cowgirl.
- 1:30:50She's like, are you a real cowboy?
- 1:30:52Like I could tell you're not a real cowboy.
- 1:30:54You never rode a horse or not? Whatever, blah blah blah so.
- 1:30:58Bro, this lady's husband is there and we're all fucking
- 1:31:01talking whenever Jake is like, yo, look at his nose, bro, out
- 1:31:08this guy's nose and we're like, Oh my God.
- 1:31:11So we're just talking to him. Everyone's fucking wasted going
- 1:31:14crazy and then they walk outside.
- 1:31:17I don't know what the IT was just a ridiculous story.
- 1:31:21You have to get the whole thing. He won't even remember it.
- 1:31:23That's the We had to remind him about it in the morning.
- 1:31:26Oh my, I don't even know. I think they left together, but
- 1:31:31like, she was feeling Bryson, dude, I'm telling you.
- 1:31:35And she was there with her fucking man's.
- 1:31:37It got a little wild and that's all.
- 1:31:40I'm just going to put it. I don't want to put him out.
- 1:31:42There too much that's perfect. I think that that's that's fair
- 1:31:44enough. Pretty wild though.
- 1:31:47My phone, My phone is dead as hell, I guarantee you.
- 1:31:51I don't know if Bryson's listening to this.
- 1:31:53He might be. They might be.
- 1:31:55They could be messaging the chat, right?
- 1:31:57No, yeah, they could. Yeah, he had.
- 1:31:59Wouldn't be have a reason to message me anyway.
- 1:32:00I don't know why he would even have my fucking number.
- 1:32:02Don't know who that is. The worst cover ever.
- 1:32:04But that was a bad one. Sorry, Bryson.
- 1:32:07On the other hand, I when we got out of the podcast, did you know
- 1:32:11that there was another bar that they go to?
- 1:32:13Yeah. It was like right next to
- 1:32:14borders. Oh yeah, there's a bar there
- 1:32:16now. I don't.
- 1:32:18Know like, I know like. In the parking lot of Borders,
- 1:32:20remember that restaurant that we I don't know if you were there
- 1:32:23that year, but there's a restaurant there was a
- 1:32:24restaurant there, but now that's just a bar, I guess.
- 1:32:27So now you. It's a bar and restaurant, yeah.
- 1:32:29So instead of going to Longhorn, they go there.
- 1:32:33The bowling alley is lit bro. Yeah, we still didn't get to go,
- 1:32:36dude, by by the time you guys called, the time you guys called
- 1:32:38me when you're all, when you're all at the bowling alley.
- 1:32:41We were going to but me and Malcolm said to each other
- 1:32:44before we left on this trip, we said if the County Fair is there
- 1:32:47or whatever, we're going to the. Fair.
- 1:32:49No, no, I would have rather done that.
- 1:32:50That's so. Weird.
- 1:32:50But it was you guys called me and we were coming out of the
- 1:32:53fair and I would have loved to go, but we also needed to get
- 1:32:58back to Green Bay and there was no way for me, let's say, if I
- 1:33:01let you guys go, not. To mention, I was not doing so
- 1:33:04hot at that moment. You.
- 1:33:05Frankie was not feeling good. Bro fucking extra.
- 1:33:08Space. What then?
- 1:33:09I would have had to go to the. Fucking Airbnb the next day and
- 1:33:12shit Oh my God. No, that is true.
- 1:33:14I I thought about it because I I know the bowling alley's fun
- 1:33:18everyone I. Would have went if I didn't feel
- 1:33:20like shit. Dude, you look.
- 1:33:21Bro, the CEO game was. That was a big fucking CEO game
- 1:33:25going on outside the whole time. Saturday night when we were
- 1:33:27there, I went inside, maybe just to buy a beer or two and can.
- 1:33:31I tell you something that happened with Cee Lo.
- 1:33:34Carl won and he gave the money back.

- 1:33:49But I was like, Nick will never be giving you money back, so
- 1:33:52don't give. No.
- 1:33:54He might not give it back for. Like for a game like that he he
- 1:33:57might have. I was just fucking bullshitting

- 1:34:02Be in the big boss. I just, he was the one you had
- 1:34:05to tap into Nick if you had no money to get into the game.
- 1:34:08And then you had to give him his cut, of course, during the game.
- 1:34:11Like if you won, you had to give Nick like an extra fucking 10%.
- 1:34:15Yeah, whatever, 50% of your winnings to Nick.
- 1:34:18Like he was some big. Fucking mob ass mentals.

- 1:34:57Driving was fucking on point driving.
- 1:35:00Was. All day.
- 1:35:01All day long. It was crazy.
- 1:35:03The driving every year has gone to another level.
- 1:35:06Yeah. Who do you think?
- 1:35:07No French tree? No.
- 1:35:12What else were you excited to be?
- 1:35:14What else were you excited to see there?
- 1:35:20Other teams that were killing it, breaking was fucking killing
- 1:35:23it. That really was making me happy
- 1:35:24seeing that shit. Dude, I was so happy when I
- 1:35:27walked in there and I saw Derek's car, Derek and Derek I.
- 1:35:30Didn't even think he was going to be driving.
- 1:35:32I know. Me either.
- 1:35:33I was like holy shit. And they actually did this.
- 1:35:35They were. Fucking killing it too man, They
- 1:35:37were killing it. Who?
- 1:35:40The rotaries, man? Yeah.
- 1:35:43Dude, the charm cars, man. Yeah, that shit.
- 1:35:46Was, I will say proceed had a a a few good laps that I saw.
- 1:35:50Oh. Yeah, they won.
- 1:35:51Yeah, I mean, I don't think I saw that.
- 1:35:52I didn't see the last bit of driving, but I saw before that.
- 1:35:58But I will say this, when I was watching the what were, what was
- 1:36:00it like? Top whatever before, before top
- 1:36:024, before top 4, whatever that is.
- 1:36:05The The Jam. Jason.
- 1:36:06Yeah, when I was watching that in my head, I was like, I forget
- 1:36:12that one name. The guys that you know, the
- 1:36:13three cars, they're all one color.
- 1:36:16Good feeling. Yeah.
- 1:36:17I was like good feeling haze, Front Street animal style.
- 1:36:22That was my top 4. And proceed wasn't even in there
- 1:36:25at first. No, definitely not.
- 1:36:27They had good laughs, but I did not feel like they were going to
- 1:36:29be top 4 you. Didn't get a good feeling.
- 1:36:30Because of haze. Car show portion exactly so I
- 1:36:34forgot about that. Then the guy was telling you
- 1:36:36that actually. Yeah, then then you told me
- 1:36:38about the car show thing and I was like, Oh yeah, fuck.
- 1:36:41I was like, OK, well now. It changes the whole thing.
- 1:36:44You know, because Hayes got KBD. But anyway, yeah, so then it all
- 1:36:49made sense. But Hayes was driving good as.
- 1:36:51They were, they were. So when I heard Hayes got in the
- 1:36:535th, I was like, because when I I view Matt Craig like Josh
- 1:36:57Delise, I'm like Matt Craig is just as competitive.
- 1:37:01I was like, Matt, I was like, I don't want to be anywhere near
- 1:37:03that guy right now. You.
- 1:37:04Just said that. Bro, actually that guy's, I was
- 1:37:07like, that guy's going to be fucking fucking beating the shit
- 1:37:09out of someone. And then I and then the next day
- 1:37:12when he won the whatever it was, the singles, singles comp, I was
- 1:37:16like, yes, thank God I went over to all the shoot.
- 1:37:19Up the place. Congrats.
- 1:37:20I was like, don't shoot me, Matt.
- 1:37:22Craig deserved that with every Oz bro.
- 1:37:24Yeah, he. Drove his ass.
- 1:37:25Off with the comps, with the comp days that.
- 1:37:28Dude I felt like they got robbed in that moment but I wasn't
- 1:37:30thinking about the car show aspect.
- 1:37:32You know, no, it wasn't even just that.
- 1:37:34It was like, yeah, the jam laps were sick and yeah, your
- 1:37:38qualifying laps were sick. But when I was sitting there
- 1:37:40watching the actual comp runs, the judges, they did exactly
- 1:37:44what they needed to do when they did their job judging.
- 1:37:46And I think they did a really good job judging it like at that
- 1:37:50time. I also didn't have the I mean, I
- 1:37:52had a good vantage point, but I didn't watch every single.
- 1:37:53Look here, man, me and James Carper had every call like,
- 1:38:00we're sitting there, I'm going to do my James Carver
- 1:38:04impression. You know, Carl, what did you
- 1:38:06think about that one? Like I'm like fucking sitting
- 1:38:08there. Like, yeah, James, that shit was
- 1:38:09pretty sick, like. And he's like, all right, well,
- 1:38:12what about this one? Oh, 'cause then somebody will
- 1:38:15throw another lap and then another lap will come in and
- 1:38:17another lap will come in and then it will just change up the
- 1:38:20whole. I kept saying Front St. in my
- 1:38:23mind, I'm like. Stop going out.
- 1:38:25Stop going out, bro, Nick told them.
- 1:38:28Don't go out. Yeah, stop driving, you're good.
- 1:38:31They went out and they all fucking crashed whatever at the
- 1:38:34hairpin and. Yeah, I I remember that lap.
- 1:38:37Yeah, then they just didn't drive after that.
- 1:38:39I was like, bro, come on, you guys are good.
- 1:38:41You don't have to keep going out because that's how it works.
- 1:38:44The Jam. Section 30, man, that's how it
- 1:38:46is. These guys just.
- 1:38:46Are feeling it. You start, you do your laps and
- 1:38:49if you guys, if you feel that you made enough an impression on
- 1:38:52the judges, you can stop. Yeah.
- 1:38:54Imagine, but no one ever stops. You get to think about it, you
- 1:38:57get well they take your best 3 laps, but you take 3 laps and
- 1:39:01they're all fucking gangster. You don't got to drive no more.
- 1:39:03Exactly. You think you were like.
- 1:39:04But if I was a judge, and I was a judge at one point for that
- 1:39:08special stage East and when you see a team going out the entire
- 1:39:14time. Yeah, you're almost like.
- 1:39:16You have to give them points for that.
- 1:39:18Yeah, because you're like, it was a.
- 1:39:21Real dream. Yeah, they, they kept going out
- 1:39:24and I was like, in my mind I was like, yo, stop, I'm texting, I'm
- 1:39:26texting. I'm like, yo, stop going out.
- 1:39:28You guys are gonna. They went out every time and did
- 1:39:31flawless runs every time. And I was like, and that's why
- 1:39:33they made, that's why they came. They came in top three for sure
- 1:39:37at that time. I don't remember, but yeah, it's
- 1:39:39just like that. That is part of it.
- 1:39:41But I don't know. They did so many, Front Street
- 1:39:43did so many runs. Animal.
- 1:39:44Style was, they really didn't do a lot though, because the first
- 1:39:48lap Tom went out, broke an axle. We go in and change it in like a
- 1:39:53couple minutes. They go back out.
- 1:39:55They were telling them, Oh, no, the oil, the yeah.
- 1:39:59The chaser blew his shit up, so that's when I went up there and
- 1:40:02started watching, just so you know.
- 1:40:03Yeah, so then they were waiting and whatever, and then they did
- 1:40:08some gangster fucking runs and then they waited there saying
- 1:40:12they can drive. I don't know what it was, but
- 1:40:15yeah. Yeah, that's the only bit I saw,
- 1:40:17but dude, I thought it. Was, you know, I'm down to.
- 1:40:20I thought it was. Going to come down to E 1st
- 1:40:21West. That's what I thought was going
- 1:40:23to happen, which it kind of did, right, but proceed took the
- 1:40:26first place. In a way.
- 1:40:28So yeah. Dude, that was the event itself.
- 1:40:32Was was. East versus West versus Central
- 1:40:34versus South, it was like. Yeah, it was.
- 1:40:35It was proceeded animal style and frustrating animal style.
- 1:40:38Yeah. And then good feeling down
- 1:40:39South. Yeah, that's what it was.
- 1:40:41Dude. I love those good feeling cars,
- 1:40:42man. They were.
- 1:40:43It's crazy how that ended up like that.
- 1:40:45North Central, South Central, Yeah, WE you think about that's
- 1:40:50kind. Of and the top three were in my
- 1:40:52opinion, it was animal style 3rd, right?
- 1:40:54Yeah, In my opinion, those are the top three familiar known
- 1:40:59drift teams in the US to me, like Animal Style on the West
- 1:41:03Coast. You can't even tell me there's a
- 1:41:04bigger team than that. That that is the drift team on
- 1:41:06the West Coast. Yeah.
- 1:41:07And then East Coast right now is Front Street like it is.
- 1:41:11For the past. Five years, yeah.
- 1:41:14And then Midwest proceed. So, well, there's a lot of
- 1:41:18teams. There's a lot of teams in the
- 1:41:20Midwest though that I think of like, but now I can't think of
- 1:41:23any and I sound like a punk for not being able to name anything.
- 1:41:25Proceed is the team like they they they started final bout
- 1:41:28like that. That's the that's.
- 1:41:30The team, yeah, like. So it's kind of cool how that
- 1:41:32happened out, how that worked out like that.
- 1:41:34But let's get this shit going man Fucking I don't hear faction
- 1:41:39up there bro. That shit's fucking ridiculous.
- 1:41:42Wait till this shit is so bright and done dude I'm so horny.
- 1:41:45Right now I'll drive on both damn teams if I finish my car.
- 1:41:49Faction in Front St. Dude, what a great fucking
- 1:41:53event, dude. And then, OK, so that's the only
- 1:41:56thing I'm gonna talk about. The two things we could talk
- 1:41:58about on the next day is like that.
- 1:41:59Singles confident we'll wrap it up with Johnny and I's magical
- 1:42:02moment over there. The fucking that sounds so
- 1:42:04fucking pause, yo. But like, nothing weird like
- 1:42:08that. OK, But we we did the they did
- 1:42:11the singles comp. We're watching it again.
- 1:42:13I think it might have also been me and James Carper.
- 1:42:16I know David Bob was there, but we were watching and and we were
- 1:42:20all just standing around and Matt Craig is driving his ass
- 1:42:25off, bro. And he just had us all locked
- 1:42:28in. Like I was just watching Matt.
- 1:42:29I'm like, no fucking no fucking way.
- 1:42:32Matt's about to win this shit. Like.
- 1:42:35And then he drove against like the girl D1 driver.
- 1:42:38Yeah, I heard about that. I didn't see it, but it sounds
- 1:42:40pretty crazy. She drove Wheeling and dealing,
- 1:42:42man. We're a real 2 like.
- 1:42:44That thing that she was wait, so.
- 1:42:45She on one of those teams or she's just completely like.
- 1:42:48I don't know if she's like actually on lean sense.
- 1:42:51But she did she have a different car than them or was it like.
- 1:42:54It was like the same color, like that grayish color but no real
- 1:42:58livery. On it, it was a different.
- 1:43:00I don't know if she like she, she was like driving with lean
- 1:43:03sense, I guess. But like I don't know what she's
- 1:43:05like. You know how it is like actually
- 1:43:06part of the team where she was just like guest driving with the
- 1:43:09team. I don't know.
- 1:43:10All I know is is they did a few runs.
- 1:43:14I feel like Matt was definitely had the advantage in terms of
- 1:43:17like speed, like he was just running away like he was able
- 1:43:20to, but length. Does anyone know her engine set
- 1:43:23up or anything? I don't know anything about it,
- 1:43:24but all I know is that she aired down a little bit for like the
- 1:43:29last run or whatever and. She looked way.
- 1:43:32Faster now. And I was like, oh gosh.
- 1:43:34She was sandbagging. Yeah, I don't know if maybe she
- 1:43:37was or she didn't really have a lot of time to do any of this
- 1:43:39shit, but Matt got the W, man. He really did that shit.
- 1:43:44KA beats Sr., KA beat Sr. and. If I was a judge I don't know
- 1:43:49how I would throw that just for having AKA.
- 1:43:52And later on in the day, we fucking judge me and Johnny.
- 1:43:55This was this was like, this is it.
- 1:43:57This was the cap to like my final bout trip.
- 1:43:59Aside from aside from saying hi to everybody, everybody who
- 1:44:03stopped by the booth, everybody who took the time to like tap me

- 1:46:10Yeah, you'd see like a couple people on that side of the track
- 1:46:12to forget anything else. That's just the AC.
- 1:46:18Dude, yeah, and seriously, he was so fucking full.
- 1:46:22But like, enjoyable. We met so many fucking.
- 1:46:26The pits are a little hectic, but like, that's what.
- 1:46:28Everyone was saying. The pits work pretty fucking
- 1:46:30active. What do you think you can change
- 1:46:32about that? You can't really change anything
- 1:46:34about that. Yeah.
- 1:46:35Just like I personally think that that they're not going to
- 1:46:37do it there that long anymore. Like I think it's, I think it's
- 1:46:40almost to an end because we're. Also, you're going to do it.
- 1:46:42It's too many people, man. Where do you want to go fucking?
- 1:46:45I don't know where. The Annapolis.
- 1:46:47I don't know where they're going to go, but me personally, I
- 1:46:49think they're they're going to pick another track soon.
- 1:46:53Fuck bro, yeah, we're running out of time.
- 1:46:56Build their own track. That's what's going to happen.
- 1:46:59Or that honestly, yeah, that would be or just or just modify
- 1:47:03something. I don't know if they can buy
- 1:47:04land nearby for parking space or something like.
- 1:47:07That tracks the. It's obviously the people that
- 1:47:10own it now are like a little more catered to drifting.
- 1:47:13Yeah. So it might expand into
- 1:47:14something better. They've owned it for what, two
- 1:47:16years now? Yeah.
- 1:47:17So it might get a little yeah there with that.
- 1:47:21I think. Yeah, I think.
- 1:47:22It's the biggest event of the year there, though.
- 1:47:24If they fix the parking situation I think it would help.
- 1:47:28The pits thing kind of it sucks because it's like you want an
- 1:47:31open pit. Yeah, for an event like that,
- 1:47:33you do. I mean, it's the whole nature of
- 1:47:36that event. Yeah.
- 1:47:37But like, it just does like if you're trying to pull in and
- 1:47:39out, bro, it gets hectic, you know, even like I drove Josh's
- 1:47:44truck into there and I'm like, I'm going to run fucking fire
- 1:47:46people over like. Yeah.
- 1:47:48It was that full dude. It was kind of sick.
- 1:47:52It is sick. I dude, I just know that I would
- 1:47:54be such a dumb ass in there. I'd be out there.
- 1:47:59That's crazy. Everywhere I go, just fucking
- 1:48:02got to go to the bathroom. See you later.
- 1:48:03I don't. Give a fuck.
- 1:48:06It's so crazy because like going back to when I went to the first
- 1:48:09one and spectating it, it was literally like there was like,
- 1:48:12what? I don't know how many people
- 1:48:13were actually there, but it felt like there was a group of 200
- 1:48:16people that just met up to hang out.
- 1:48:17Yeah, that's how it felt. And now it's like the biggest
- 1:48:21grassroots drift event of the country, right?
- 1:48:23At least not I would. I would say it's the biggest
- 1:48:26other than like. Grid life.
- 1:48:29But that's not even the grassroots.
- 1:48:30Dude, I don't know Lock city staggered gets pretty big too,
- 1:48:33but that's. Not a drift.
- 1:48:35Event. That's everything.
- 1:48:36It's like a car show. Yeah, you know, like this is
- 1:48:40like just straight fucking drift event I.
- 1:48:42Don't know that's how I'm calling it.
- 1:48:43I'm like, that's the biggest event of.
- 1:48:44The Yeah, that's the. Biggest there's more people that
- 1:48:46final bout than staggered two. True, I've been to staggered.
- 1:48:48It's like, it's a big event and it's fucking cool, but final
- 1:48:53bout is like dude. It was just like.
- 1:48:55Up there, man. It was crazy amount of people.
- 1:48:59What else happened to anything? Oh, wait, yeah.
- 1:49:00So the, the the, the event, the the, the cap to my final bout.
- 1:49:04This was it right here. Me and Johnny were just standing
- 1:49:07there at the end of the day. We had just chilled for a little
- 1:49:13bit, you know, maybe hit the Zazington a little bit and it
- 1:49:20was sunny every all the teams that I I personally had like
- 1:49:26some sort of like the teams that I like, like the my friends,
- 1:49:30like the cars that I thought were really cool.
- 1:49:31Like they were all on fucking track dude at the same time.
- 1:49:35And me and Johnny are just standing there, bro, Johnny
- 1:49:38says. Like I can't believe we could
- 1:49:40just like see this shit like or something.
- 1:49:42I was. Bro I was just standing there
- 1:49:44and I'm like I'm watching all my friends shred and all these sick
- 1:49:49car like I'm watching charm fucking do apps on super D and
- 1:49:53everyone I'm like. We're yelling at them going like
- 1:49:55this and shit, they're fucking hitting the last corner where
- 1:49:58which is where me and Johnny were standing.
- 1:50:00I'm just going like this. Fucking they.
- 1:50:02You don't have to hit limiter there.
- 1:50:04But everyone was that. Everyone was having a fucking
- 1:50:06sick. Time.
- 1:50:07I'm like. Yeah, but there was like also no
- 1:50:10one else out there. Me and Carl were just standing
- 1:50:12there alone and we're just like. Dude, that was simulation.
- 1:50:14Sick. Like we're just here in the
- 1:50:17middle of the fuck, not in the middle of the track we're from.
- 1:50:20We're next to the judging stand, but like, we're just standing
- 1:50:23there a little sleazy, you know? We're just like, this is fucking
- 1:50:28amazing. And we're look left, there's
- 1:50:30drifting. We look right, there's drifting.
- 1:50:32Matt Craig is throwing Backy at their fucking backyard.
- 1:50:35Banging off the limiter the whole time.
- 1:50:36Jay-Z noise fucking going off at the same time like I'm and cars
- 1:50:41are going on like cars are getting off track and so now
- 1:50:45they're driving off back here but they're also like driving on
- 1:50:47right here and it's just like me and Johnny just.
- 1:50:49Sitting there like. Holy.
- 1:50:52Shit dude, this is it was nuts. And all the cars look good.
- 1:50:55And all the cars look sick. Like there's no other.
- 1:50:58You won't go to any other drift event in the country and feel
- 1:51:00that feeling. It was honestly, it's so
- 1:51:03unexplainable, like there, there really was like no one on track
- 1:51:06it felt like really. Fake.
- 1:51:07I try to tell everyone, like if you're spectating, you need to
- 1:51:10come out, like come out to this event.
- 1:51:12Yeah, like it's if you're going to spectate one event, yeah, you
- 1:51:16should go to find about. Yeah.
- 1:51:17Do you do a pay $200 to fly there?
- 1:51:20Yeah. And go spectate because I mean,
- 1:51:22you're not going to want to go to anything else after that.
- 1:51:24Honestly, it's. Probably going to change your
- 1:51:26life. Yeah, it'll change your life.
- 1:51:28It motivates everyone. Even people who don't drift.
- 1:51:30They're just like, I want to do something cool.
- 1:51:32Yeah. That's true.
- 1:51:35I think we actually have questions, so.
- 1:51:37Let me look at that was a. Fun fucking trip.
- 1:51:39Bro it was a fun trip. Fuck.
- 1:51:41I got to see I told Eddie to clip you your 180SX bit and he
- 1:51:45goes copy that 180SX for life. He knows, dude.
- 1:51:48He knows. We got to see Dave, Bob, we got
- 1:51:50to see fucking dude I got to meet.
- 1:51:52Julian, Dave, Bob. Oh, I want to talk about the
- 1:51:54Julian thing. Julian.
- 1:51:55'S why did he tell you about this?
- 1:51:57Yeah, Julian comes up to me and he's like, yo, what's up, man?
- 1:52:00I say hi, We're talking whatever.
- 1:52:03I think we talked about the podcast.
- 1:52:04He's like, he's like, Oh yeah, He's like, yeah, listen, I was
- 1:52:08like, what? He's like, yeah, I listen to the
- 1:52:10podcast. I'm like, damn, that's awesome.
- 1:52:11Cool. But we were talking about, you
- 1:52:13know, him doing it and how it didn't work out and all this.
- 1:52:15I was like, I didn't know you were going to be here.
- 1:52:17Like I didn't know. I thought you and then I heard
- 1:52:18you were going. I was like, oh, you you're
- 1:52:19probably driving. And then I found out you weren't
- 1:52:21driving. I was fucking shit at a podcast,
- 1:52:23whatever. And then he's like, yeah, Carl.
- 1:52:25He's like, Carl came up to me before and introduced him and,
- 1:52:28and I said, Carl, yeah, I know you.
- 1:52:30I watched a podcast or something and I was like, Carl must have
- 1:52:32been bugging out when you said that shit.
- 1:52:34I was. Tweaking.
- 1:52:35Bro it came up. I introduced my.
- 1:52:37I was like, I think we've met him.
- 1:52:38He was like, Oh no, I know. I was like, yeah, I'm like
- 1:52:42looking up. I'm like.
- 1:52:43No, I said. That's exactly.
- 1:52:44That's exactly. How it was I had this, he was
- 1:52:47standing right here. Yeah, it's kind of hard to miss
- 1:52:50him from my height. Like it's like a fucking tree.
- 1:52:53A waste. A literal, like literally at my
- 1:52:57I would say, yeah, I'm a little above his waist.
- 1:52:59That's kind of nuts. It is nuts.
- 1:53:01That's not an exaggeration either.
- 1:53:03I know that's really sad. No, it's not.
- 1:53:06I mean. Anyway, I just wanted to
- 1:53:09introduce myself and like talk to him for a little because I
- 1:53:11was like, it's really weird. But like I watched your videos.
- 1:53:16So now I'm here. Like that's one of the videos
- 1:53:20that Chris showed me where he's like, yo, you got to check this
- 1:53:22shit out. That parking lot 1 where Snoop
- 1:53:25Dogg's doing this shit and like, I don't know, I was just then,
- 1:53:29yeah, he said that. He's like, Oh yeah, I know.
- 1:53:32I've seen the podcast. Before podcast.
- 1:53:34I see no, I think he just said he's seen the podcast before and
- 1:53:37then that's when I was like then I'm like, I know I have to say,
- 1:53:45I know I don't have to say this. I probably shouldn't, but like
- 1:53:48you got to think this is funny, right?
- 1:53:49Like because he was talking to me like and you're like, because
- 1:53:55I, I physically felt that my head was like.
- 1:53:59I feel the same way when I talked to.
- 1:54:00Him and I was like, you gotta think, you gotta think this is
- 1:54:03funny as hell, right? Yeah.
- 1:54:05And he's a super cool down to earth guy, man.
- 1:54:07Like I was honestly really sick like.
- 1:54:10I, I, I told them I was like, I was like, it's kind of cool that
- 1:54:13you can come here and hang out and you actually have your team
- 1:54:15drifting. Like that's awesome.
- 1:54:17Like the big boss, you know? Yeah, like you actually have
- 1:54:19teammates that are here drifting and you can't do it for whatever
- 1:54:23reason it is, and you're still here hanging out and you get to
- 1:54:25watch your team literally come in 3rd place that final bout,
- 1:54:27which is crazy. Just to be able to like have a
- 1:54:29conversation with somebody that you know is like, you know how
- 1:54:32they are is like never meet your heroes or whatever.
- 1:54:34Like and you meet them and you're like, yeah, that was
- 1:54:36pretty fucking cool. Every single fucking one.
- 1:54:37It was pretty sick. And then then, yeah, like now
- 1:54:42we're all just hanging out at the same fucking event and it's
- 1:54:45pretty. Crazy like thinking about it, no
- 1:54:47one cared to necessarily win final bout before but now it's
- 1:54:50like everyone wants to fucking win 'cause it's.
- 1:54:53I know, but if you win final bout you think.
- 1:54:55About it, you're you're the fucking top team in the US and
- 1:54:58the US is kind of like it's not a staple in drifting in Japan is
- 1:55:02obviously, but like it's pretty. Important now, though.
- 1:55:04Yeah, it's pretty important. And there's a lot of sick shit
- 1:55:06that comes out of here. So to win final bout, to even
- 1:55:08place, it's like your team is fucking sick.
- 1:55:11You guys are doing good things like.
- 1:55:14We have like 14.8 million questions, so I'm going to pick
- 1:55:17some and we're going to go with that.
- 1:55:19What was your favorite team? Front Street always will be.
- 1:55:25I don't know, I like the animal style cars dude.
- 1:55:27I still liked seeing them. Palmer's car, I feel.
- 1:55:30We have to take Front Street out of this chasm.
- 1:55:32Street. OK, Johnny, what was your second
- 1:55:35favorite team? If you say French tree one more
- 1:55:38time, I swear to God. Second favorite team, it's

- 1:57:42axle and like. And got back out for the call.
- 1:57:44I can't remember it. We did it.
- 1:57:45Quicker than what then we just did on Tom's car, yeah.

- 1:58:28This was his first Drift event on track.
- 1:58:30Was it was it me and you or I think I was with Nick.

- 1:58:50do? Where do we go?
- 1:58:51He took the initiative too. He didn't just rely on me to try
- 1:58:54to figure out. Look at that, that that might
- 1:58:56have been didn't practice or something.
- 1:59:00I could have sworn that Eddie just recorded that from over
- 1:59:03there. Right, he's moved him.
- 1:59:05Eddie did a good job man. Yeah, I want to feel that like.
- 1:59:10He was probably focusing on Front Street though.
- 1:59:12I can't, so would I Shit, look at these guys.
- 1:59:16That run, that run is money. Right there.
- 1:59:20Frankie, hurry the fuck up, bro. Good.

- 1:59:26Look at that. Look at Jimmy transitioning way
- 1:59:29early. That's that's.
- 1:59:30How I feel like? They were driving, anybody could
- 1:59:33say whatever they want. They were driving with more
- 1:59:36aggression than anyone at that event.
- 1:59:38The whole. No.
- 1:59:40The whole time. That's how it be, bro.
- 1:59:43Yo, that could be us, Frankie. The air horn out.
- 1:59:46Come on, how can you not get to the 1st?
- 1:59:47Place the air. Horn, the air horn going off the
- 1:59:49whole time. They it's just so exciting
- 1:59:53watching them drive. Yeah, it is.
- 1:59:55Fuck, I want to drive. That shot of proceed though.
- 1:59:58Go to Josh's Instagram or. Something.
- 2:00:00Yeah. No, it is.
- 2:00:01Oh, there is a sick photo of them that.
- 2:00:02Shot is sick. And they're perfect.
- 2:00:04Yeah, because that's the money shot when you're at final
- 2:00:07battle, like everyone can line up like that perfectly.
- 2:00:10That's that's what you want. Front Street did it too, all
- 2:00:13day. Dude I want that feeling so
- 2:00:15animal. Style did it.
- 2:00:16Hurry the fuck. Up man practice or like the the
- 2:00:22qualifying like the jam session animal style was fucking.
- 2:00:26Killing. Yeah, that's what I was
- 2:00:28watching. They were fucking going crazy.
- 2:00:29I was like, hope, they're going to fucking yeah.
- 2:00:32I was like, it's going to be. Front Street versus them.
- 2:00:33Yeah, like. And I was telling Julie, it's
- 2:00:37like, I didn't know the placing of when that stuff ended.
- 2:00:39I'm like, yeah, we're coming for you.
- 2:00:41Yeah, you're coming for you, don't worry.
- 2:00:44But in my mind I was like, fuck, they kind of got this one right
- 2:00:46now, man. I'd say after watching that
- 2:00:49video, my favorite team is Front Street too.
- 2:00:51Yeah. That was a pretty.
- 2:00:52We're a little biased. Though we're a little biased,
- 2:00:54but honestly dude, look at that beats that photo.
- 2:00:57Yeah, sunroof pop. Josh knows what's up.
- 2:01:00He's got a latch that. Photo right there is.
- 2:01:02He's a responsible. Adult.
- 2:01:03You see how the front hood scoops up just like the Hatch?
- 2:01:08That's the purpose of the Hatch. Just like with the wing too.
- 2:01:10I love how Eric Ryan's in there snapping for.
- 2:01:13Real though, dude, we're snapping.
- 2:01:16That shit's fine, bro. And and like like always, you
- 2:01:19first get to final bout, you go proceed, you go proceeds, you
- 2:01:21got liveries. I don't know if I like them.
- 2:01:24And then by the end of final bout you go, wow, those are the
- 2:01:26best liveries there. This happens every time.
- 2:01:29I still don't know if I like but.
- 2:01:31Look at it right there. I like it, looks good because
- 2:01:33they're shredding and I know those are all my friends.
- 2:01:35And they match. Look at the liveries like.
- 2:01:39I I don't know, it looks good. Like when they're alone.
- 2:01:44OK, fine, maybe that's not the perfect.
- 2:01:45I'm just picturing if they had none.
- 2:01:49I wouldn't like it as much that. Girl take them.
- 2:01:51Damn. They need something on it, not
- 2:01:53it doesn't have to be that crazy.
- 2:01:54Just the word proceed and just the decals for the spot like
- 2:01:58the. Brand.
- 2:01:59Yeah, yeah, probably. And that'll be beautiful.
- 2:02:02All right, So what else we got here, Jake?
- 2:02:06What did? Jake shoot Gin in the parking
- 2:02:09lot of the bowling alley. What?
- 2:02:13Jake shoot gin in the parking lot.
- 2:02:15I think that was last year and we're doing that.
- 2:02:18Jake was a little bit more of a responsible this time, I think,
- 2:02:23because we weren't being that responsible, but.
- 2:02:27When I was like, yo, Jake. It's time in bed.
- 2:02:28He's like, let's go smoking. Cigar.
- 2:02:32I talked to Jake, too, because he was, he was to me, Jake was
- 2:02:35the Token Club Club loose guy that was there that weekend.
- 2:02:38Yeah, like he was the Token Club loose guy that was there.
- 2:02:40There's always one of them and I was like, Jake, how you doing?
- 2:02:42You like this event? He's like, this is the best
- 2:02:44event this. This is sick.
- 2:02:45He knows what's up, though. Like, yeah, he knows what's up.
- 2:02:48So, Lung Glass asked, how was Longhorns?
- 2:02:51Did you guys eat the rhinos? Longhorns is like, not a thing
- 2:02:55anymore apparently. Supposedly we're not allowed
- 2:02:57there. I mean, yeah, probably because
- 2:02:59it was right, because of. French.
- 2:03:00I think it's literally just because of Johnny.
- 2:03:02Yeah. Or Johnny.
- 2:03:03Yeah, that one year was crazy. That was every.
- 2:03:05Even the bartender was. I know you got the.
- 2:03:07Bartender. Over me.
- 2:03:09I mean, there's other people on the plane mostly.
- 2:03:11Go check out a donkey style video on YouTube, you'll find
- 2:03:13out what we're talking about. But yeah, I did.
- 2:03:18We eat the rhino. I didn't eat the rhinos.
- 2:03:20I don't know. A lot of people ate rhinos this
- 2:03:23weekend, bro. I found one in Josh's car.
- 2:03:25I don't know if he knows, but like, I was working on his car.
- 2:03:28He was, I was working on his car before he got there.
- 2:03:31Trying to flush a rat out. And I look like I'm just in the
- 2:03:35car and then I like look over and in between the fucking
- 2:03:38center console and the passenger seat is a fucking package of
- 2:03:41rhinos. And I'm like what the fuck?
- 2:03:44Like did someone just leave this in his car and it fell out when
- 2:03:46he was drifting somewhere so. Then no way you just outed Josh
- 2:03:49like that. That's insane.
- 2:03:51I didn't out him. I mean, he ain't eating no
- 2:03:53rhinos. He don't need a rhino.
- 2:03:55I. Don't know.
- 2:03:56I don't know. He's but yeah, he's already
- 2:03:58horned up. He don't need a rhino.
- 2:03:59Yeah. What was your favorite livery
- 2:04:01slash paint combo at final bout? I like this question.
- 2:04:05Honestly, Nick Scardino, Scardigno, the Green 1, Via and
- 2:04:11the GT1I like that car a lot. Oh, that was apparently that's
- 2:04:15got some subframe work done like on it and like body work done on
- 2:04:19it to is it, is it a be low? Was it drifting?
- 2:04:22Yeah, yeah, on good feeling good clean one.
- 2:04:24Oh yeah, that car's sick. Yeah.
- 2:04:26I like car a lot and the. West Mel's car, bro Mel's car.
- 2:04:30'S car's sick. The colors are all light, they
- 2:04:32agree. With each other.
- 2:04:34Honestly though, number one for me is always Rev gas and he'll
- 2:04:36know that so. I'm going to have to say like,
- 2:04:41obviously Aaron's car from front, yeah, from animal style.
- 2:04:44Obviously it's crazy. But if you aren't going to pick
- 2:04:47that, I would say I really like Lee's FRS Holy.
- 2:04:51Shit, I thought you were going to be like Tom.
- 2:04:53I I really like the the livery on that car.
- 2:04:57I thought it was good. Yeah, it was like modern drift
- 2:05:00car. Oh.
- 2:05:01OK. Yeah, yeah, now that.
- 2:05:03I know it's weird I. No, no, no, I like it.
- 2:05:06I, I actually also love it. Yeah.
- 2:05:09And mainly cuz when you bring that up, I'm picturing when Tom
- 2:05:13pulled up to the BBQ or whatever and I was behind Tom's car and I
- 2:05:17was looking at Tom's car and then looking at Lee's car in the
- 2:05:20distance and I'm like. Modern 180.
- 2:05:22Yeah. What, like that's literally the
- 2:05:24modern 180 right there, but. Also, when you take all the cars
- 2:05:27on that team with that livery and you put them and you take
- 2:05:30them out, I think his looks the best by itself or Ilya's, but.
- 2:05:34I do like Ilya's car, yeah. Simba's car grew on me too with
- 2:05:38that livery. I like Simba's car.
- 2:05:40I like all their all their cars are.
- 2:05:41Good. Yeah, livery grew on me.
- 2:05:42Chop's car is good. Everyone, every single person on
- 2:05:44that team's car is really good. Yeah, no one can deny that.
- 2:05:49But yeah, now that that dude from good feeling that was a car
- 2:05:52that the green. Wait, what the fuck am I saying?
- 2:05:55Bro? What run up?
- 2:05:56Is that the team? Oh.
- 2:05:57Yeah, the 180 the look up 1. Run up the good, the the grace.

- 2:06:18my favorite cars there, but. Yeah, run up drift club.
- 2:06:20Yeah, man, that middle one. Yeah, go to another photo though
- 2:06:25anything from final bout not. Yet.

- 2:06:31Oh yeah, go to tag, go to tags photos, because that shit was.
- 2:06:39Where the fuck is? This thing.

- 2:06:42on the right bottom right. That was it.
- 2:06:46Damn that shit looks good in that color dude.
- 2:06:48Yeah, it does. That shit, when that goes by the
- 2:06:51wall, I don't know, That's like that.
- 2:06:54It reminds me of my cartoon though, the way it looked right
- 2:06:57there. It's just that something about
- 2:07:00that color, man. It was risky business, my boys.
- 2:07:04Shout out Matt for the fucking photo.
- 2:07:06Malcolm, shout out Matt for the fucking visor.
- 2:07:08Oh wow. Yeah, come on though, M Sports
- 2:07:11Hood. I was looking at an M sports
- 2:07:13hood too. Danded doors?
- 2:07:15Does he have overs or no? Is it metal?
- 2:07:16No, it has overs. That's it does.
- 2:07:18Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Dude, come on, look at the look
- 2:07:21at, look at Mel's fucking car though, bro, come on.
- 2:07:23Yeah, this shit is sick. That shit's fine, but then that
- 2:07:27looks pretty good. That.

- 2:07:32That's from. That's a Texas guy.
- 2:07:35Yeah, Oblivion Jet's crew. Yeah, that car is always cool
- 2:07:39when you. See it you bitches is getting on
- 2:07:41the nerves. Yeah, dude, like with the pink
- 2:07:44on the Tees and those are his spares.
- 2:07:47Like. That's pretty, but I wanted to
- 2:07:50paint my car pink and you were like, no, your fenders.
- 2:07:53I said the pink on the spares. I didn't say the car was cool.
- 2:07:56Well, Fender was that origin. Like it's metal, that's all that
- 2:07:59matters. Yeah, it's origin.
- 2:08:02Kind of like that. Yeah, no, fenders in the front
- 2:08:05on 180 are just totally fine. Like if you don't have overs.
- 2:08:08I mean, nine, my car needs overs.
- 2:08:09He's getting it. No, it's dude.
- 2:08:11That one right there. Yeah, that shit looks fucking
- 2:08:14sharp on man. They blocked the hell out them
- 2:08:18damn skirts bro. Dude, that's that's my favorite.
- 2:08:21Holy shit, that is like, really? That's my favorite car there.
- 2:08:25No livery. Though, because it looks like
- 2:08:27your car. Right, it kind of.
- 2:08:28Does a. Little bit.
- 2:08:29That's probably why I look. Arrow isn't as aggressive and
- 2:08:31he's way lower than yours. Yeah, well, my car was low, but
- 2:08:35I grew up. Nah, that thing looks.
- 2:08:37That thing looks grown up as hell.
- 2:08:40No, it doesn't, but it looks. Good, it definitely does.
- 2:08:42There's no fucking stickers on it anywhere.
- 2:08:45That car does not look grown up, Carl.
- 2:08:46That is way grown up. No panel gaps are closed.
- 2:08:49The paint works. Actually paint work like.
- 2:08:52Johnny. I like the interior of that car.
- 2:08:55I'm going to say that. What?
- 2:08:56Give me a grown up 180. Josh Tom Nazaro.
- 2:09:00That's a grown up 180. That is not.
- 2:09:03That is a. That is the.
- 2:09:05That is like the. This this is a childish 180 and
- 2:09:08that's why I like it. That's a grown up 180.
- 2:09:11I don't know what the I. Like the Super?
- 2:09:13Game that's like older style. Blinkers in them too, and I
- 2:09:15should say. And it's a sleepy eye too.
- 2:09:18And it looks good. That's fucking sick.
- 2:09:22Nick Machuda. I finally got to meet Nick.
- 2:09:24That's why that's the story that I wanted to say that bar.
- 2:09:27NASCAR, too looks good. That car is sick.
- 2:09:29Honestly, that's probably 1. Of my we were at that bar
- 2:09:31though, at the at borders and we have that IS300 group chat and
- 2:09:37like fucking I'm talking to Dan. There's a guy in there that I've
- 2:09:40also talked to before, Nick Nick Mishuda, and then there's like
- 2:09:44this other guy we met named Sam and then AJ from risky devils in
- 2:09:47there. I don't know what they all look
- 2:09:48like though. They're.
- 2:09:49Fucking IS people. So we're taking over the I'm
- 2:09:51just talking like to Dan and there's other people around us.
- 2:09:55And I was like, yeah, man, like I'm trying to meet everyone else
- 2:10:00out of the chat. And the Nick literally Nick
- 2:10:04literally goes like, bro, I'm Nick.
- 2:10:06I'm. Like bro fuck sorry.
- 2:10:10And then Robbie Erickson, I met him as well with the 90s, funny
- 2:10:13as shit. Like I just got to meet so many
- 2:10:15fucking people. It was, honestly.
- 2:10:17Dope. Yeah, that event is sick every.
- 2:10:19Year I like I'm almost like emotionless now because of it
- 2:10:23like I fucking have mad fires to put out at work and I'm
- 2:10:25literally just like. I like seeing Jet Davis.
- 2:10:28Whatever bro, I like Yeah Jet. Davis asked a question, too.
- 2:10:31Favorite car, favorite team, favorite driver?
- 2:10:33We kind of went over the car and the team, but favorite driver?
- 2:10:39Favorite driver The Mustang is also a car that I like from
- 2:10:48Bobby's crew. Yeah.
- 2:10:49Are we talking like driving stuff or are we talking like the
- 2:10:51person behind the wheel? Because if we're talking to the
- 2:10:53person, then Josh will proceed. OK.
- 2:10:55Yeah, that's. Josh from proceeding, Josh from
- 2:10:58Front Street and Tom Josh. From Front Street, he ain't my
- 2:11:01favorite. Yeah, Josh is probably one of my
- 2:11:06favorites, but I don't know, I feel like we always say Josh,
- 2:11:08and I'm not trying to bounce on it too much now.
- 2:11:10So I'm like, who else did I really enjoy watching Drive?
- 2:11:15I like watching the Japanese. Guys, did all the Japanese guys
- 2:11:18drive the. Guy with the the donked up
- 2:11:19fucking chaser. He was fucking killing him.
- 2:11:22Fucking just ripping. And The thing is, is like when
- 2:11:24you they drive at at least for me, when they drive, I get that
- 2:11:30like they drive in an exciting way, like it's a big body part,
- 2:11:34but I'm like enjoying watching it.
- 2:11:36I'm like, oh. Yeah, it's every Japanese
- 2:11:37driver. They're just so aggressive.
- 2:11:40What do you attribute to Origin Labo's surge in popularity over
- 2:11:43other brands? Availability.
- 2:11:46Definitely availability, quality, pricing.
- 2:11:49Pricing make the fucking IS kit origin.
- 2:11:54I'm tired of commenting on all of your posts.
- 2:11:58Variety. I think it's variety.
- 2:12:00Too. Yeah, they.
- 2:12:00Do have there is some variety? They do have a decent amount
- 2:12:03they're. Still producing body kits for
- 2:12:05the cars we like. Yeah, not all of them.
- 2:12:08OK, that's just you, Carl, but yeah.
- 2:12:10They were never Toyota people. They never were, yeah.
- 2:12:13I know. You know, I think it's an Osaka
- 2:12:15brand. What's an Osaka?
- 2:12:17180. One 80s in one 80s in Sylvia's.
- 2:12:22If you have a chaser there, you're kind of a weirdo.
- 2:12:25If you have an Altezza in Japan, I think you're a weirdo, I
- 2:12:28guess. Like there's none of it out
- 2:12:30there. I can't find nothing.
- 2:12:33Favorite car to do that? We did that, another person
- 2:12:38said. Archive 180SX that that page he
- 2:12:42said his favorite car was BJ's hatch from run up.
- 2:12:45I'm assuming that's the guy that.
- 2:12:46I'm going to assume that that's the car.
- 2:12:49Is a faction bus permanent? Technically it's it is I guess,
- 2:12:54but I didn't pay for it yet, so I got to do that.
- 2:12:56But yeah, we we want to keep it. It's fun.
- 2:12:58It's a fun time. I I think everyone had a pretty
- 2:13:01fun time in that it. Was definitely useful.
- 2:13:03I feel like maybe we have Ethan Weld like something, modify it,
- 2:13:08Weld something for the top so that it's usable.
- 2:13:12That's a big ass. I was looking at it when you're
- 2:13:15at the loading dock. I'm like this is a big ass plane
- 2:13:18of usable space that's not being used.
- 2:13:21Dude, even my dad likes it. He doesn't like anything I do,
- 2:13:24ever. You know what you could do next
- 2:13:25year is just rent a little U-Haul trailer and put all that
- 2:13:27stuff in it, no? No, no, because if we.
- 2:13:29Want to have a car? Probably next year or.
- 2:13:31So if there's going to be a car or we're bringing the bike,
- 2:13:33we're. Going to have my truck.
- 2:13:34We're going to have a van, so we can do multiple things now that
- 2:13:38that's the other thing that's like.
- 2:13:39Good, because we do all the people and all the toys, Yeah.
- 2:13:42Because putting all the shit in the van isn't ideal, obviously.
- 2:13:44And we'll have the Sequoia, but yeah.
- 2:13:47And the Sequoia. Yeah.
- 2:13:50God, how was TDO 6? It.
- 2:13:55Was good. There's no other fucking answer.
- 2:13:59To that TDO 6 is good, very laggy.
- 2:14:01I will say it is laggy. Who the fuck cares?
- 2:14:03Yeah, that's what I said. How tall is too tall for AGT
- 2:14:06wing? Good question.
- 2:14:08Taller than the. OK, wait.
- 2:14:10I knew. I know his name now.
- 2:14:12The the blue hatch. I think that's Mitch Shamlu
- 2:14:16Hatch. Oh, never mind.
- 2:14:18That's not much more. Yeah, good feeling.
- 2:14:19But that one. Malcolm.
- 2:14:21That one's teetering. For me personally, it's
- 2:14:24teetering on too big. Like too tall.
- 2:14:27I I have an answer right now. I like the.
- 2:14:28Width and all that. It's just too tall.
- 2:14:30Two inches lower than the roof. No, and it's got.
- 2:14:33Anything taller than the roof is too much it.
- 2:14:35Anything taller? Yeah.
- 2:14:36It has to be in line with the roof or lower.
- 2:14:38Yeah, but when you say in line with the.
- 2:14:39Roof, it's like right on the cusp, I think it's.
- 2:14:42Like that could be in line with a roof, we just can't tell.
- 2:14:44No, it's not. I think it's taller.
- 2:14:46It's taller, but the. Thing is 80 it might have to be
- 2:14:48lower than the roof. I think it's like a Nick's car,
- 2:14:51bro. This thing is sick.
- 2:14:52And that red car. I don't know whose red car that
- 2:14:55is either. I don't know anybody's names.
- 2:14:57Tom's is is, I want to say perfect, but I think it could be
- 2:15:02a little higher and I still wouldn't hate.
- 2:15:03It but The thing is, is like it's taller because I feel like
- 2:15:06there's a lot of other styling cues that tie it together.
- 2:15:09Like those rear fenders are extreme, the front is extreme.
- 2:15:13It if it's too wide, it's a problem.
- 2:15:16It's too high. The red, it has to be perfect,
- 2:15:18you know? Yo if you want to bring up Tom's
- 2:15:19car next after this, I personally think his that looks
- 2:15:23good. That looks cool as fuck.
- 2:15:24That looks. It looks.
- 2:15:25Taller. It looks extra just in like the
- 2:15:28right places and that's what I like it's.
- 2:15:31Still a cool looking drift car so whatever.
- 2:15:33If there was a livery on that, it would look absolutely over
- 2:15:36the top. Yeah, I mean, those cars to me,
- 2:15:38like when I think Johnny might agree with this, those cars,
- 2:15:40when I see him, I think like chunky drift cars, you know,
- 2:15:43like big fat, like Type 3 and everything.
- 2:15:46See like that wing height? Toms is perfect.
- 2:15:48Pretty much. Ideal.
- 2:15:49I'm not the biggest fan of Type 3, I'm going to be honest.
- 2:15:51Yeah, me either, but that's like ideal right there.
- 2:15:53That thing really looked like it came out of a video it.
- 2:15:56Was perfect. And they moved him and Jimmy
- 2:15:59moved the wing stands out. They were too far in, they
- 2:16:02didn't like it, so they actually moved him out further, which
- 2:16:05actually looks good. So oh, I like when it's narrow.
- 2:16:09I I don't hate it, but I do like how it looks.
- 2:16:12Like Elias, depends on the wing. Ilia's car, like with the stands
- 2:16:16in the middle, is too much for me personally.
- 2:16:18That's perfect. That that dude.
- 2:16:22I was so glad Tom did that wing. That was the thing I hated about
- 2:16:25Tom's car. Forever, dude.
- 2:16:28For type 3 just doesn't work with a type X wing.
- 2:16:30I think I'm going to. Be no one.
- 2:16:31It never works and they and he had that for so long and I was
- 2:16:35like, dude, just get a car modified wonder wing something,
- 2:16:37get something that's bigger than that.
- 2:16:39And then he puts this on and I was like, yo.
- 2:16:41Let's go with the blue check, you know what I'm saying?
- 2:16:44Oh, my fault. Damn, Jimmy don't even got that.
- 2:16:48Damn, yeah, the blue check mark. Next question.
- 2:16:54Oh, next question. My bad.
- 2:16:55Real Dennis the Menace. You guys ever planned on
- 2:16:58starting your own events? Carl would love to start his own
- 2:17:01event and. Me and Nick bro no I'm not doing
- 2:17:06it without Nick. Like me and Nick would run the
- 2:17:08fuck out of an event. That would be a good event.
- 2:17:10Yeah. And we would definitely have
- 2:17:11Dennis there. Yeah.
- 2:17:14Why do you never see Batman and Jed Davis at the same time?
- 2:17:18Nobody knows why. Dude, there's no there's a
- 2:17:20logical explanation I. Just don't fucking.
- 2:17:24Yeah, Batman was fucking. Like the question was actually
- 2:17:27way better than I asked. Why do you never see Batman and
- 2:17:30Jed Davis at the same bowling alley in Shawno?
- 2:17:37The city needed them. The city needed them.
- 2:17:39Jet might have been taking a nap and Batman was there.
- 2:17:42Like I don't know what you want me to tell.
- 2:17:43You detected this is a really good question from Stevie.
- 2:17:46As final bout has grown, do you think the big 265 tire cars
- 2:17:50belong there? Yeah. 100% Front St. pulls it
- 2:17:54off well. A lot of other people there pull
- 2:17:58it off well. That's true.
- 2:18:00There were a lot of people that were running 260.
- 2:18:02Five, you're not gonna I mean, you think it's a team comp, so
- 2:18:04you're not fucking going against other people, you're going
- 2:18:07against your team. You want everyone to be the same
- 2:18:10and all Frenchies cars look good driving together because they
- 2:18:14all look the same. I know, but now here's why
- 2:18:17factions are going to look nice together.
- 2:18:18They're all going to be on motherfucking hockey puck tires.
- 2:18:21You know, you know what? I think it.
- 2:18:22Is then we're going to just be stacked up the whole time?
- 2:18:24Just I'm going to be on 260 fives you're.
- 2:18:26Tripping. I'm going to break fucking axles
- 2:18:29doing that shit. You're not going to break an
- 2:18:31axle. I think.
- 2:18:32The 265 all season I'll do. I think the thing that.
- 2:18:35Tires. A tire.
- 2:18:36I think the thing that makes that that what do you call it?
- 2:18:40Puts everyone on the same level. Is the track.
- 2:18:43Exactly. You can't go faster than a
- 2:18:45certain speed. Yeah, obviously cars could dig
- 2:18:47faster than others on that track and like drive corner
- 2:18:49aggressive. But yeah, if you're thinking
- 2:18:52about it, if you're driving more aggressive than one of your
- 2:18:54teammates is, your team's gonna look like shit.
- 2:18:57So if you have an an aggressive setup and everyone else on the
- 2:19:00team does, you're probably going to all look good together
- 2:19:03because you're all driving aggressive.
- 2:19:04If you have a 215 and everyone else is on a 215, you're
- 2:19:07probably going to look good because everyone's driving the
- 2:19:09same. I I agree about.
- 2:19:12That it's it's a team event. It's not a yo, my shit's going
- 2:19:15to fucking dog your shit. You know, I guess the singles
- 2:19:18comp is like that, but that's not really that big of a deal
- 2:19:21do. You know how you always bring up
- 2:19:23that FRS team by the way, whereas all FRS is from final
- 2:19:26about one? Yeah, people are.
- 2:19:27Some people have been messaging. Someone DM Ed me the name of the
- 2:19:30team. Funk AD Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 2:19:33yeah. There you go.
- 2:19:34Good. You got your answer.
- 2:19:35Was that it or was it a different 1?
- 2:19:37I don't know. It was that one.
- 2:19:37It goes back and forth with cool runs and cool running.
- 2:19:40No, no, back and forth. It was.
- 2:19:41It was. It is the funk team though.
- 2:19:43Yes, that's the one I was. Fuck I forgot who messaged me
- 2:19:45that. Shout out to you man, you know
- 2:19:47who you are. Did Carl make it to the bowling
- 2:19:49alley? No, no, unfortunately.
- 2:19:51Did Carl make it in any Cee Lo action?
- 2:19:53I did and I and I won. But while Steve made a lot of
- 2:19:58money that night, really, that's all I know.
- 2:20:00Steve cracks me the fuck up every time I see a man I was so
- 2:20:04happy to see. And this year we were a little
- 2:20:06more grown, which was funny because last year we was just
- 2:20:08drunk as a hell like. He wasn't drinking, you know, I
- 2:20:11don't think he drinks anymore. Yeah.
- 2:20:13And and that doesn't mean we had any less of.
- 2:20:15A of a time still a good time I still enjoyed.
- 2:20:17Hanging out with Steve. Cracking jokes the whole time.
- 2:20:19We didn't talk about the fucking me getting fucked up on that
- 2:20:22ride. Either Oh my God dude.
- 2:20:24We could end it with that, yeah. Any other questions on there?
- 2:20:27We're so sorry. But like hopefully we answered
- 2:20:30them throughout the fucking. We pretty much just we answered
- 2:20:32a lot of them minus me wiping my ass every other day because we
- 2:20:35had to shit so many times from eating Culver's.
- 2:20:36Like I pretty much told you everything.
- 2:20:38I did a double burger bro. We go to the fair.
- 2:20:42First ride was sick. Hold on.
- 2:20:43Oh, Carl was telling me about this.
- 2:20:45We go to the fair and I am not a rides person when it comes to
- 2:20:51spinning. Like my favorite ride at Six
- 2:20:53Flags is Nitro because there's no that's.
- 2:20:55My favorite ride too. But it doesn't do this.
- 2:20:58I couldn't get Nitro at the fair so.
- 2:21:00Well, then maybe you can just wait for Nitro.
- 2:21:03Like they get on these rides and shit.
- 2:21:05Frankie's mad insistent on getting on these fucking rides.
- 2:21:08So I'm like me and Joe, God, thank God Joe was there so that
- 2:21:13it's like someone else is like boring.
- 2:21:15So we're hey, we'll take all the stuff.
- 2:21:18Well, no problem. No, we took all.
- 2:21:20We got all the stuff. We're watching him go.
- 2:21:23I've never seen Daryl so fucking happy in my life.
- 2:21:28For the second ride. Or no, the ride number one.
- 2:21:30Oh yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:21:32He was so fucking giddy. Dude.
- 2:21:35His that ride is. Amazing.
- 2:21:37Ear to ear smiling. It's the one where it's like
- 2:21:39fucking who spinning around you. Didn't go right.
- 2:21:42OK. So oh, the one with the.
- 2:21:45Yeah, not the one that crazy. Not that one.
- 2:21:47Not the one that killed Frankie. Yeah.
- 2:21:49So after that 10, we're in good spirits.
- 2:21:51Let's go ride another one. We go on this one where it's
- 2:21:54like a swing back and forth. Normal, normal.
- 2:21:57I can do that. Funny little note.
- 2:21:59That was fun. Funny little note.
- 2:22:00Daryl was next to me now, and Frankie, Malcolm and Princess
- 2:22:03were across. Daryl's next to me.
- 2:22:05Lewis is in front of me, and so is Eddie.
- 2:22:08I had just bought two of these rings right here.
- 2:22:10They're like just plain little metal circle rings.
- 2:22:13Got money? Fucking they were $5 and like
- 2:22:17and we go up as soon as it starts to haul ass because it's
- 2:22:21surged up. As soon as it did the ring that
- 2:22:25I just bought flew off and like made a bolt sound.
- 2:22:29Like it was like. Bugging out.
- 2:22:34Everyone who was on outside that was yelling stop, Darrell just
- 2:22:39goes. Stop the ride right.
- 2:22:40Darrell just goes, whoa, what was that?
- 2:22:44Yeah, I couldn't imagine him just saying that.
- 2:22:46Yeah yo-yo, what was that? Not y'all heard?
- 2:22:48That like, what was that? And I was like, it just couldn't
- 2:22:52stop. That's amazing.
- 2:22:55Like, and aside from the that Malcolm was also fucking.
- 2:22:59Every time it goes up, you just hear Malcolm go, yeah.
- 2:23:03Like. Dude, 'cause we, we were, we had
- 2:23:06our hands up and I was like, Princess, put your hands up and
- 2:23:09right when we get to the front, it feels like you're going to
- 2:23:11fall out. And she's like, like, she wants
- 2:23:14to put her hands up, but she's like.
- 2:23:15Fighting it. They were just screaming.
- 2:23:17It was fun as hell, but then the people behind us stopped yelling
- 2:23:21because. They heard it.
- 2:23:22They heard that thing like fall off it.
- 2:23:25I was. Dying.
- 2:23:26That's the best joke to play on someone before you, before the
- 2:23:28roller coaster starts moving. You go, you go.
- 2:23:31Is that both supposed? And then the fucking thing
- 2:23:33starts going. Yeah, that both loose.
- 2:23:34That both loose. Next time I'm just going to pull
- 2:23:36the workers. Out of my pocket they're like,
- 2:23:38oh God. And then the fucking yeah, yeah,
- 2:23:39you're. Like yo, if I worked on a roll
- 2:23:41I'd be like. Oh, she's like this.
- 2:23:42She's all. Of it and then it would just go
- 2:23:43off. I'm just going to imagine carry
- 2:23:46like a gigantic like 4 1/2 inch lag screw on me.
- 2:23:50Yeah, and just. Drop it down and just.
- 2:23:52Be like. Yo, yeah, you hold it up.
- 2:23:54Yes, I just pulled this shit out of my fucking yeah.
- 2:23:57You shake it and you go. Yo what the fuck is?
- 2:23:59It and then what? Do you drop Pearl?
- 2:24:01That would be amazing. Really.
- 2:24:04What happened? Though we need to do that this
- 2:24:05one. Yeah, I did this at Daryl, bro.
- 2:24:07Dude's voice. Yeah.
- 2:24:09He hit the whoa. So then.
- 2:24:12So then we have only a certain amount of tickets left.
- 2:24:14Yeah, so then we had the option of going to bumper cars, which
- 2:24:19would have been fun because there was a shit load of us
- 2:24:22that. Would have been.
- 2:24:22Fun, but Malcolm was a hater, so we didn't.
- 2:24:25Why didn't you want to do that bumper?
- 2:24:26Cars suck, dude. Bro, it's what you.
- 2:24:28Make of feel like there's always a fight with a random person.
- 2:24:31You go bumper cars, you hit my baby.
- 2:24:36What the fuck? So the only that we didn't go on
- 2:24:40yet. Was the one that we initially
- 2:24:41saw that made me say. No one wanted to go on that ride
- 2:24:44because it looked like it was spinning, designed to just make
- 2:24:46you sick. It spun on one axis, so that's
- 2:24:48one, right? It's spinning like this, but on
- 2:24:51apart from that there is also another axis AEO pause and
- 2:24:55that's spinning now. And apart from that there is
- 2:24:58the. Yeah, you got the video now.
- 2:25:00That also is it's on Eddie's. Eddie's Instagram Instagram.
- 2:25:07I mean, I have a video of just the ride.
- 2:25:10Yeah. Yeah.
- 2:25:11No. But but then Eddie has.
- 2:25:12It on. It's on his Instagram like he
- 2:25:14posted a post with it. I'll just show them what it
- 2:25:17looks like then. Perfect.
- 2:25:19Is what the ride looks like. Oh shit.
- 2:25:23Dude, it was like one of those. So they go to take off.
- 2:25:26I already start cracking up because.
- 2:25:28I was, I was looking at who was the.
- 2:25:33Situation. What was the seating arrangement
- 2:25:35it was like? It was Malcolm and Princess and
- 2:25:37me and Darrell. First of all online.
- 2:25:40I I convinced, we convinced Princess to go on.
- 2:25:42She said fuck it. And then we went online and she
- 2:25:44looks at it. She goes, how the fuck are we
- 2:25:46going on this? I'm like, it looks bad, right?
- 2:25:48She's like this doesn't look fun.
- 2:25:49Dude, it was. It looked like hell.
- 2:25:52I probably wouldn't have fun. I was worried, 'cause we just
- 2:25:54had Culver's and I was like, this is.
- 2:25:56This is something we. Had a lot of Culver's 20 minutes
- 2:25:59before. That makes me feel sick
- 2:26:00immediately, but I love it. No, no, like.
- 2:26:03Going on Orion. But yeah, The thing is, is like.
- 2:26:06Wait, wait. Wait, it started funny?
- 2:26:08Because no. No, no, wait.
- 2:26:10Before we even get on, we're walking on.
- 2:26:12Apparently Malcolm tells him to kick it.
- 2:26:14What you say? I say crank it up.
- 2:26:16He said crank it. Up.
- 2:26:17I didn't hear him say that. So then we get on the ride.
- 2:26:20I'm looking at the dude too. Like let's say Johnny was the
- 2:26:23operator. I'm looking at this dude and I'm
- 2:26:25going. So we got I didn't know anything
- 2:26:28about me. We get on, the ride starts
- 2:26:31going, we're screaming. I'm like, yeah, this sucks.
- 2:26:35All of a sudden I just feel and it fucking bang and it gets
- 2:26:40faster. And I'm like.
- 2:26:41Jumping off I'm like he just shifting.
- 2:26:43Guns so fat. And dude, I'm like what the
- 2:26:46fuck? And then all of a sudden.
- 2:26:47The four all slippy. Silent.
- 2:26:48All of a sudden, the screaming stopped.
- 2:26:50Bro, bro, bro, it was the funniest shit, dude from the
- 2:26:52ground because I'm telling you, look.
- 2:26:56That's how. I look, when I got off, dude, I
- 2:27:00was, I was about to throw up. I was about to throw.
- 2:27:03Up. I'm over here cracking up.
- 2:27:04I'm having a time couldn't. Stand like I, I was, that was
- 2:27:07it. I was like, I need to sit down.
- 2:27:08And then I realized I, I, I'm going to throw up and I, I
- 2:27:12fought it and we made it home and I went.
- 2:27:13He sits down. He went straight into bed.
- 2:27:16I went straight into. Bed and everything.
- 2:27:18Clothes on. Yeah.
- 2:27:20He just laid down right away. It was incredible.
- 2:27:24There it. Is so.
- 2:27:27So here was another thing. Just watching here was another
- 2:27:30thing. Yeah, I tried to take a video,
- 2:27:31and I was going to throw up from trying to take the video.
- 2:27:34Yeah. And then the whole time you're
- 2:27:37hearing Malcolm go. But then after that, like second
- 2:27:43gear shift, Malcolm's voice started to taper off like it was
- 2:27:48just go. He's just running.
- 2:27:52Daryl, Daryl and me went silent. Dude, I'm telling you, I was
- 2:27:56saying and making jokes to Malcolm and Princess, and the
- 2:27:59funniest, the funniest shit was that the the thing spun around
- 2:28:03and it was just you and Daryl and I was like, oh God.
- 2:28:06Yeah, dude, it was bad. I mean, hey, it was fun.
- 2:28:08We we said we would go. We went maybe next year we'll go
- 2:28:11bowling instead. Yeah, you know, But overall,
- 2:28:15overall, honestly one of my favorite fine about trips, I
- 2:28:17would say. Yeah, yeah, they get, they get.
- 2:28:19I don't want to say they get better every year because we've
- 2:28:21had some fun years in the past. But for some reason, this one
- 2:28:23just felt a little bit more. I want to say it felt a little
- 2:28:26bit less stressful for me, so that was nice.
- 2:28:28You had a whole team with you. That's why you had.
- 2:28:30You had Eddie, you had Princess, you had Lewis, you had Malcolm,
- 2:28:33you had me. You were, you were fucking motor
- 2:28:36running around, bro. Yeah, yo, I was doing the sales.
- 2:28:38I was like, damn, I remember doing this shit.
- 2:28:40Yeah, you were in there. It was fun as hell.
- 2:28:43That was one. That was why I went down memory
- 2:28:44lane today a little bit. I've had to find the first one
- 2:28:46you went to. I remember parking the RX there.
- 2:28:49There was. No vendor there.
- 2:28:50When did you go 2020 or 21? 2121.
- 2:28:53That was your first year then? Damn, Yeah, there.
- 2:28:55Was nobody there? There was no one there.
- 2:28:58Compared to now you're. Saying, dude, I'm telling you, I
- 2:29:01parked my RX where Jimmy Oaks's booth was and just stood on it.
- 2:29:06But that's how you guys feel like there wasn't that many.
- 2:29:09There was barely anybody there compared to this.
- 2:29:10Year I watched videos. Of it too.
- 2:29:12Well, it was also COVID year, right?
- 2:29:14It was the year after. Yeah, a year.
- 2:29:15Right after, yeah, I don't know, but yeah, you're right, it grows
- 2:29:18every. Time everyone was outside this
- 2:29:20year dude. What about compared to the last
- 2:29:23one that we went way bigger? It was bigger, but last year
- 2:29:26we're still big. Yeah, last year it was big.
- 2:29:28It grows year over year. Last thing I want to say before
- 2:29:31we end this is thank you to everyone that came to the booth
- 2:29:33and bought something. You are the reason we made it
- 2:29:35back home. Yeah.
- 2:29:37Yeah I tried buying something but y'all were out of stock.
- 2:29:40Yeah, I mean, we actually didn't run out of a lot of the only
- 2:29:43thing we ran out of was an SR20 shirt in large and medium maybe.
- 2:29:47And in the hats. And parts.
- 2:29:48And the hats. Parts.
- 2:29:50Yeah. Thank you for buying parts.
- 2:29:51We did not. Malcolm never wants to bring
- 2:29:53parts because he's lazy and he thinks no one will buy.
- 2:29:55Them I gotta buy that breather tank, the gritty one that you
- 2:29:57have. Yeah, we proved him wrong this
- 2:29:59time. You guys all bought parts, bro.
- 2:30:01We got rid of two Nardi steering the.
- 2:30:02Two Nardi wheels. I was like, what you got rid of
- 2:30:06the I saw the silver 1 and I was like.
- 2:30:08Yeah, the Italian one. Pretty sick.
- 2:30:10That one was fine. We bought that by.
- 2:30:12Accident. Yeah, and it was a pretty sick
- 2:30:14wheel. Dude, and Italy, they Ferrari
- 2:30:18just one, one at home. Yeah, yeah.
- 2:30:21And like I was talking Frankie, I was.
- 2:30:23Like. I was talking Frankie like yo
- 2:30:25keep that shit here bro, we can sell that shit on eBay right
- 2:30:27now. Yeah.
- 2:30:29No, it was. It was cool, man.
- 2:30:30Great, great event. Next year we're hoping to
- 2:30:33obviously drive, but we're also hoping to have a way bigger
- 2:30:37booth, not bigger in size, but we want to.
- 2:30:39Have two-story. Studio.
- 2:30:42Apartment on, be sick as fuck though, I'm not gonna lie.
- 2:30:45Yo come upstairs. Yo remember the boots that sema
- 2:30:48that have the upper? Deck.
- 2:30:50Yeah, come up, have a beer. Come up, have a beer.
- 2:30:52Because you just spent $1200 with us.
- 2:30:54Or whatever. That's crazy, but.
- 2:30:56Yeah, I want to have a storefront in that bitch.
- 2:31:00I want to have like, you come in, you walk around, the shit's
- 2:31:02on the wall, you know, like everything.
- 2:31:06Whatever this is, I want to imitate.
- 2:31:07It just squeeze that shit. No, we got to bring a trailer.
- 2:31:10We're going to need a trailer for that shit.
- 2:31:11Yeah, I'm going to have my car and then we're going to have the
- 2:31:13trailer on the other one. You're going to have your car
- 2:31:15and then the third, whoever is going to have another.
- 2:31:18They're going to figure it out on their own and that's it.
- 2:31:21Pearl. That's the goal.
- 2:31:24Dude, that was so fun. Yeah, honestly, thank you to
- 2:31:26every single one of you that make it worth doing this shit,
- 2:31:29because that was a lot of work. We made it work and I'm proud of
- 2:31:34every single one of those podcasts that we did.
- 2:31:36Very good podcast. Unfortunately we missed a
- 2:31:38couple, but that just gives us more room to do it next year.
- 2:31:42Yeah, there's so many more people like to talk to you in
- 2:31:45the Midwest. Although maybe next year I might
- 2:31:47not do that because they're going to be Wheeling, Brad.
- 2:31:50But then I just realized in order for us to wheel, we got to
- 2:31:52qualify. And for us to qualify, we got to
- 2:31:55drive. And for us to drive, you have to
- 2:31:56finish your shit. We're.
- 2:31:58Going to do some podcasts but we might not do six of them.
- 2:32:01You're a tweaking 10 if you don't think I'm sitting there
- 2:32:03meditating thinking about how I'm going to beat Matt Craig,

- 2:32:50Something final about it. That's just the event, like the
- 2:32:52venue. That's just me.
- 2:32:54Like there's tons of people that maybe might might not do the
- 2:32:56same thing, but I'm I was walking around with pockets full
- 2:32:59of garbage. They need one of those bathrooms
- 2:33:00club loose cut. Yeah, the Wheelie Jones.
- 2:33:03Showers too, at Club Blues, Yeah.

- 2:33:59I was entertained sitting on the sideline.
- 2:34:00So hopefully everybody else enjoys this podcast.
- 2:34:03Yeah, you seemed entertained. You also seemed like it was a
- 2:34:05little, little long. You just hit the music at one
- 2:34:07point. And you just ended it.
- 2:34:08Well you started talking about shit in a in a shower so I just
- 2:34:11closed it. Oh, OK, that makes sense.
- 2:34:15How long was that? I don't know, two hours maybe?
- 2:34:18Oh, that wasn't that bad. Yeah, it could have gone longer,
- 2:34:22but yeah. But so how did you have fun at
- 2:34:24final belt? I had fun.
- 2:34:26Yeah, it was. It was one of our busiest.
- 2:34:30It was our busiest final bout ever and that felt great.
- 2:34:34All the people coming up to the booth saying hello, buying
- 2:34:36stuff, people coming back multiple times to buy shirts
- 2:34:40because they just wanted more and wanted parts and it was
- 2:34:44awesome. And it got a little cold out.
- 2:34:45We had the hoodies, of course. Yeah, yeah.
- 2:34:48Always, we always bring the hoodies.
- 2:34:50It doesn't matter if we're in the desert or, you know, if
- 2:34:52we're, if it's winter or if it's summer, we're bringing the
- 2:34:54hoodies out. We know that, you know, Mother
- 2:34:56Nature is a force to be reckoned.
- 2:34:58Yes, and we also always have the umbrellas.
- 2:35:01Yeah. You could use them in the sun.
- 2:35:03You could use them in the rain, yeah.
- 2:35:05You never know. Next thing we need is ponchos.
- 2:35:08Oh, that. 'D be cool.
- 2:35:10Yeah, All right, so it's September now.
- 2:35:17We got a lot of shit going on now.
- 2:35:19Yeah, summer's coming to an end. Summer is gone.
- 2:35:21Goodbye. I'm over it.
- 2:35:23You can stay there. Goodbye.
- 2:35:24Gone. We're done.
- 2:35:25Not. A fan, huh?
- 2:35:26No, never been a fan. It's the worst season of the
- 2:35:29year, but but fall is here. The best Spooky.
- 2:35:35The best? Season of the year, so I'm
- 2:35:37excited. I'm going to be working on my
- 2:35:40car a bit. What?
- 2:35:44Yeah. So you know, it's it's good
- 2:35:46weather now. So yeah, we got a lot of Final
- 2:35:49Bout content coming out for you guys.
- 2:35:51The way we're going to do this is all of the podcasts as of
- 2:35:55today are on our Patreon. So all six podcasts we recorded
- 2:36:00at Final Bout, they are on the Patreon.
- 2:36:02If you guys want to get access to those, just check out the
- 2:36:05link in our Instagram bio or anywhere.
- 2:36:09We probably got one in in this. If you're listening to this on
- 2:36:11Spotify, we probably got a link in there, so check that out.
- 2:36:14There's two different tiers. The first tier is just $5.
- 2:36:17That'll get you into basically all the all of the content.
- 2:36:21Actually there's there's three tiers now, right now.
- 2:36:23Yeah, three, yeah, but basically 2.
- 2:36:25Yeah, there's, there's three, but the last one is kind of just
- 2:36:27like you're basically just donating to us at that point.
- 2:36:29But the the second tier is how much is it 1515 bucks $15 and
- 2:36:35that gets you merch code, right? Merch code.
- 2:36:39Oh, not the merch code. That gets you a merch drop care
- 2:36:43package. That gets you a care package.
- 2:36:45Everyone gets the merch code. Yeah, yeah.
- 2:36:47And just so you know, we have new merch in the making, so
- 2:36:51there will be a merch drop very soon, and all of our $15 tier
- 2:36:54members will be getting a free care package.
- 2:36:57Yeah, that's a lot of shirts we got to compensate for that Jesus
- 2:37:00Christmas. Yeah, I mean, well, the way it
- 2:37:03usually works is they get they get one.
- 2:37:05Like if I if I release a drop and there's multiple shirts,
- 2:37:09they're getting one shirt. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:37:10But I'm still that's a lot of. People, no, it's a lot of shit
- 2:37:13yeah, it's like, but I mean, they're paying they're paying
- 2:37:15the money so it, it makes sense, you know, but.
- 2:37:17Yeah, 20 something people in that $15 tier or something.
- 2:37:20But yeah, those designs are already sent off to our our
- 2:37:23designer. He's working on them right now.
- 2:37:25So I know we got two that he's working on and we got 2 that are
- 2:37:28sitting waiting to be released. Yeah, there's a lot of stuff we
- 2:37:33got going on, thank God. But yeah, it the 15.
- 2:37:38We also have the 15% off merch code.
- 2:37:40So what what happens is we don't do it every month because we
- 2:37:43forget. But Eddie's been pretty good
- 2:37:45about reminding me. We have a 15% off merch code
- 2:37:48that gets sent to all the Patreon members.
- 2:37:50So if you're in there, you get a code for the month and you can
- 2:37:53use it on any merch you want to purchase from our website.
- 2:37:55So that's going out today as well for September.
- 2:38:00Another thing I wanted to mention is Carl's cold start
- 2:38:03Serie. Well, we have a cold start
- 2:38:05series that's coming out and Carl is the first person that's
- 2:38:07on it. This was recorded one of the
- 2:38:10mornings at final bout before we left and it's basically just
- 2:38:13Carl sitting by himself drinking a coffee.
- 2:38:18Coffee might have turned into beer by the end of the episode,
- 2:38:20but. Yeah, he's just sitting in the
- 2:38:22sunroom at the Airbnb, just just speaking his mind about final
- 2:38:27bout end. I don't know his his life with.
- 2:38:29Green Bay in the background? Yeah, you say that.
- 2:38:31Like you say. With the Green Bay in the
- 2:38:34background. Yeah, they say with the Green
- 2:38:35Bay in the background because it's it's in Green Bay.
- 2:38:38Yeah. So yeah, I.
- 2:38:40Don't know, but yeah, I look forward to that.
- 2:38:42I'm actually going to listen to that one because Eddie told me
- 2:38:45I, I should probably listen to that one.
- 2:38:47Carl gets a little, he said he gets a little emotional or
- 2:38:49something, or in his feelings or something.
- 2:38:51So I want to see that. That'll be on the Patreon only.
- 2:38:56And then we also for everyone else who does not does not.
- 2:38:59What did he say? It is not part of the Patreon or
- 2:39:04does not want to put the money out there because you know, it's
- 2:39:07times are tough right now. Again, times are tough.
- 2:39:10We have 4, three or four videos from final bout coming out on
- 2:39:14our YouTube over the next two months.
- 2:39:16I'm looking at Eddie right now. See if he Eddie thinks he can do
- 2:39:20everything in one week, but he's going to learn real quick that
- 2:39:23doesn't. I think you should crank it out,
- 2:39:24Eddie. You got to stay relevant.
- 2:39:27Final bout just happened. You got to upload those hoes
- 2:39:29right now. There we go.
- 2:39:32OK, Eddie thinks he can bang it out.
- 2:39:33So we got, we got three to four videos coming out from Final
- 2:39:36Bout. And yeah, so we're bringing you
- 2:39:39the Final Bout content, whether you're a Patreon member or not,
- 2:39:41you guys are going to see something.
- 2:39:43And then as far as all the episodes for that we have
- 2:39:47recorded from Final Bout, like I said, they're on Patreon as of
- 2:39:50today. And then we will be releasing
- 2:39:52them over the course of the next two months.
- 2:39:56I would say that's pretty accurate because I don't, I
- 2:39:58don't want to release all of them.
- 2:39:59Like I don't want to do. I don't want to take a whole
- 2:40:02month off your podcast. I want to, you know, maybe one
- 2:40:06or two this month to next month, maybe 3, something along those
- 2:40:11lines. Like, you know, that way, that
- 2:40:13way we can still keep new guests coming in.
- 2:40:16So yeah, you guys will you guys will hear those episodes if you
- 2:40:19don't join the Patreon. It's because it's it's just
- 2:40:21going to take about. One to three months somewhere in
- 2:40:24there, but you will hear all of them by year's end.
- 2:40:28That covers the final bout stuff that I wanted to go over.
- 2:40:32Yes, retail wise with our retail shop, we are still undergoing a
- 2:40:38PMU sale. We have a percentage off select
- 2:40:42PMU products. If you go on our website, there
- 2:40:44is a tab on at the top you'll see PMU sale.
- 2:40:48Click that and you'll see all the products that are eligible
- 2:40:50for the sale. Also, Origin container landed
- 2:40:54and not too long ago. There is a good amount of
- 2:40:58fenders for multiple different cars on there.
- 2:41:02The kits are limited this run, but if you need fenders front
- 2:41:06and rear, some wings, go browse that.
- 2:41:08A lot of combat eyes. Yeah, go check out that list or
- 2:41:12hit us up if you have any questions.
- 2:41:14Hit up our e-mail sales@factionmotorsports.com.
- 2:41:18Yes, so that's the origin inventory and we also still have
- 2:41:21some thrash seats available here at the shop.
- 2:41:24We have the circus spec Beta in black with a carbon, silver
- 2:41:28carbon backing. We have the pink love seats
- 2:41:30still available. We have a circus spec beta
- 2:41:33yellow with FRP backing and the pro spec Sigma Snow Leopard with
- 2:41:39silver carbon. Surprised nobody picked that up
- 2:41:41yet, but we got all those in stock in house right now.
- 2:41:44If you want to come by and check them out, you can.
- 2:41:46If you want to e-mail us about them with some measurements,
- 2:41:48maybe let us know, we'll give you the info.
- 2:41:52Those those origin parts are going fast.
- 2:41:55Every time someone calls and asks I, I go look at the list
- 2:41:57and I'm like, yeah, yeah, we have it, but we only have one.
- 2:42:00It's dwindling very fast, very quickly.
- 2:42:03So I would definitely, I would definitely jump on jump on
- 2:42:06origin parts if you want them before honestly next year, next
- 2:42:09year seems to be the next ETA. Yeah.
- 2:42:11So like January, I would say what else you got going on?
- 2:42:16Well, I mean, I want to say thank you to everyone who took
- 2:42:18advantage of the final bout sale we had.
- 2:42:20Yes. Somehow that worked out.
- 2:42:24Yes, we had over 50 orders due to the final bout sale that we
- 2:42:29ran from Friday to Monday. And we just did.
- 2:42:34I just said fuck it, do 15% off everything on the website.
- 2:42:37Yes, and. That was a mistake.
- 2:42:39But it was a mistake. But we, we made it work.
- 2:42:41We made it work. We made it work, barely.
- 2:42:44Yeah, this is what our way of giving back to you guys.
- 2:42:47And for those of you who couldn't make a define about you
- 2:42:49as some way to, you know, celebrate, I guess.
- 2:42:52And now you understand how low our profit margin is.
- 2:42:55We're freaking out about giving 15% off.
- 2:42:58So now you understand that there's not much money to be
- 2:43:00made in, in selling car parts. Yeah.
- 2:43:04So we pretty much covered everything.
- 2:43:07I I, I also want to say thanks to everyone who came to the
- 2:43:09booth for final bout because that's how we got home.
- 2:43:11We were very broke when we went out there and we almost didn't
- 2:43:15go to final bout this year. I have to say I'm very glad we
- 2:43:19decided to do that. Yeah, it it turned out to be
- 2:43:23amazing. Like for this such short notice
- 2:43:26that we decided to go. It was great.
- 2:43:28Yeah, and it it's it was one of my favorite final bout trips
- 2:43:32ever, which is saying a lot because they're all amazing.
- 2:43:37Shop updates, the waiting area and store.
- 2:43:41What do I call it? Showroom part Showroom in the
- 2:43:43waiting area is painted. The floors should be getting
- 2:43:46done next week. And then we have to build some
- 2:43:50counters. But once the floors are done, we
- 2:43:52can start decorating and putting everything in there.
- 2:43:55Yeah. So we're still on track for
- 2:43:57having this together by fall. And then have the little open
- 2:44:01house. Yeah, hopefully the best season.
- 2:44:03Open house car, meet outside with the hoodies on.
- 2:44:10I guess we got to release a hoodie too.
- 2:44:12Shit. Oh damn, yeah.
- 2:44:14That's actually easy. We have those two other designs
- 2:44:16that'll work. Yeah.
- 2:44:18Yeah. So I'm looking forward to it.
- 2:44:21This has been a fucking very stressful year.
- 2:44:24I would probably say the most stressful year of my life as far
- 2:44:26as business is concerned, and it's nowhere near done yet.
- 2:44:31Financially. It seems like it's going to get
- 2:44:33a lot worse before it gets better.
- 2:44:34So yeah, so that's pretty much it.
- 2:44:38I don't want to get into anything else because nothing's
- 2:44:43certain at the moment. Our car, our car storage
- 2:44:46situation. You know, still up in the air,
- 2:44:49it's. Not that it's up in the air, but
- 2:44:51it's not finalized yet. We, we have people contacting us
- 2:44:54now and they want to store their cars here and that that whole
- 2:44:57area of the shop is not finished yet.
- 2:44:58So I'm going to have the painter start working on that area soon
- 2:45:02just so that it looks presentable and we can start
- 2:45:05storing some cars in there. Guys, if you don't know already,
