Latest / After-Hours with Faction! Motorsports / #184 - Michael Russo of 9NINE2 & Reese Marin
Transcript
- 0:00Hello everyone, welcome back. Another episode of the After
- 0:05Hours podcast. And this is the last episode of
- 0:08the year. So usually at the end of the
- 0:12year we have a crazy podcast episode that gets a little
- 0:15outlandish and ridiculous. But this year, we decided not to
- 0:18because we had the opportunity to have Rhys Marin and Michael
- 0:23Russo come in to recap their Japan trip.
- 0:29I just want to say first and foremost that thank you to Reese
- 0:33and Russo for coming to the podcast.
- 0:36Just to remind everyone, yeah, these are friends of mine, But I
- 0:40don't see these guys every day. I don't see them every month.
- 0:42Sometimes I don't see people in a year.
- 0:45So for them to take the time out of their busy lives just to come
- 0:47here and bullshit with us for a few hours is it's, you know, it,
- 0:51it does mean a lot to me. And if you guys are getting
- 0:55anything out of these podcasts, which I hope you are, it would
- 0:59mean a lot if you could just share, you know, anytime you you
- 1:03listen to an episode and you love it or it, you know,
- 1:07resonates with you. If you could just tell someone
- 1:09or share it to them just so that these guests of ours are getting
- 1:12the most out of taking the time out of their day to come do
- 1:16this, that would be awesome. So yeah, I just want to say that
- 1:19first and foremost because this was one of those episodes that,
- 1:23you know, they're these guys live awesome lives.
- 1:28And I got to see pretty much both of them evolve over the
- 1:32last 10 years and go through a lot of hardships and struggles
- 1:36with work. And their passion never stopped.
- 1:41Like they just continued pushing and pushing and pushing.
- 1:44And now we're at a point where we're sitting down talking about
- 1:47basically a Euro trip situation with these guys that is just
- 1:53them going to multiple countries in Europe, drifting in every one
- 1:57of them, like filming everything with amazing people.
- 2:02And it's just like, it's crazy. I know people are going to
- 2:04listen to this episode and be like, holy shit, like how, how,
- 2:07how do I get this life? And we talked about it towards
- 2:12the end. But I would just say if this is
- 2:15the kind of life that you want to live or you, you get inspired
- 2:17by people like this, you better get passionate about some
- 2:21certain aspect of it and just keep pushing forward because it,
- 2:25it can happen. Like these stories that you're
- 2:27going to hear in this episode are, are kind of ridiculous.
- 2:29And it, these aren't the only people I know that have stories
- 2:34like this. So to just keep doing what
- 2:37you're doing, whether you want to be a pro drifter, whether
- 2:39you're in media, whether you're trying to open up a shop,
- 2:42whether whatever you're trying to do, just keep at it.
- 2:44And trust me, if if you're passionate about stuff and you
- 2:49keep pushing forward, good things will come and you'll,
- 2:53you'll understand what I mean when you hear this episode.
- 2:55So thank you to Russo and Reese for coming out here and spending
- 2:59a few hours with us and letting us hear about their Europe trip
- 3:02and their Japan trip and yeah, enjoy.

- 6:14there from the start. Limitless Auto also sells catch
- 6:16cans for a handful of specific models.

- 6:41newest sponsor of our podcast Ramsted MFG.
- 6:45They sell an easy to use wheel fitment tool that is a massive
- 6:48game changer for any shop or enthusiast looking for an easy
- 6:51way to check their wheel fitment.
- 6:52With their user friendly tool you can check diameter with an
- 6:55offset before you buy your wheels.
- 6:57Gone are the days of ordering wheels and hoping that your math
- 7:00was correct. Just throw their tool on your
- 7:02wheel hub and dial in your specs to see if your dream wheel
- 7:05clears your coil over and fenders before committing to the
- 7:07purchase. Not only can you check wheel
- 7:09fitment with their tool, you can use it to check suspension
- 7:12clearance as well. This is really great for
- 7:14Drifters who are always changing wheel lock and adding angle to
- 7:17their setups. Now you can see if those new
- 7:19suspension arms or tie rods that will clear your wheels at full
- 7:22lock before going out and destroying your new wheels.
- 7:25Another feature is that you can use two of these tools together
- 7:28to measure track width from the wheel center line.
- 7:30About 20% of Ramstead's customers purchase 2 tools at
- 7:33once so they can measure track width for various wheel and
- 7:36suspension setups. I recommend this product to the
- 7:38everyday enthusiast and most importantly shop owners that
- 7:41need a way to size wheels for customers so that they know they
- 7:44are getting the right specs before ordering a brand new set
- 7:46of wheels. To get more info, head on over

- 9:11Yeah, that's the. Issue the problem is.
- 9:13No one wants to hear those smackers.

- 9:20live and eat stuff and like people are into it.
- 9:22That's a whole. Not even it's.
- 9:24Not even. That oh, that's a whole other
- 9:25Democrat. Like people?
- 9:27It's because your intention ain't really to like eat in
- 9:30front of somebody. But when you sometimes when
- 9:32you're eating, that's like a maybe not the word as intimate.
- 9:35Yeah, it's like personal. It's a personal.
- 9:36Thing. No, it is for sure.
- 9:37So you're enjoying a meal with somebody.
- 9:39You're one of the most important things of life.
- 9:41You're providing nutrients to yourself with somebody.
- 9:44I actually direct the. PBS show Right now for food and
- 9:48travel around the world, and I was just in Italy in January
- 9:51shooting it. What the fuck?
- 9:53This is an you live an awesome life.
- 9:55I'm trying. He doesn't even know who it is.
- 9:57I'm trying. This is sick.
- 9:58Well, hold on. First, welcome everybody to the
- 10:00Faction After Hours podcast. Let's just get the shit out the
- 10:02way because I want to get back to the conversation.
- 10:05We have Reece married our one of our favorite Formula Drift
- 10:07judges, and we have Russo of 992.
- 10:09Thank you guys for joining us this evening.
- 10:11I think he is our favorite like bar none.
- 10:13I don't know any other. One exactly so.
- 10:17But PB Airfield, what the fuck? You just just casually, that's
- 10:20how sick is that to be able to do things like that.
- 10:23How long, how many years have you been in the guest film space
- 10:27profession? Like like you got to do this for
- 10:30a living, right? Like this is your sole.
- 10:32Yeah, yeah, 18 years, yeah. That's why I had the 992 as a
- 10:35production company. Like actually, yeah, fuck.
- 10:38But I came from like a different world.
- 10:41Like it wasn't just up from cars.
- 10:43Like I did the grass root thing, but also like I've done stuff
- 10:47outside of cars, like that's where I come from.
- 10:49So I do it all kind of, you know.
- 10:51Where'd you hit your stride in that?
- 10:53Are we allowed to talk about that?
- 10:55Did you like photograph like special things that we can't
- 10:57talk about? No, no, no, no, no.
- 10:59We can talk about whatever. All right, yeah, no.
- 11:01What was your like? Real up.
- 11:02Like where was your Holy shit? Things are getting real as fuck.
- 11:06Like Avenue I guess. Piece of parties.
- 11:09No, wait. What?
- 11:11Stop. No, I'm.
- 11:12Curious. Bro look it up.
- 11:13Someone looking no no. Don't do that.
- 11:15Don't. Don't boil for.
- 11:16Failure like this. No, I'm.
- 11:18Not no, I don't. I don't know.
- 11:20That was a tough one to think of.
- 11:22Because like if it was, I feel like I've.
- 11:24Done it for so long like it just it's been a slow build the whole
- 11:28time. Like honestly I feel like there
- 11:30had. To be a moment where you were
- 11:31like working another job or something and then you were
- 11:33like, oh, I can just do this myself.
- 11:36I would say as a friend, yes. Actually, that point was when I
- 11:40left from Vaughn's operation and kind of kicked over OK.
- 11:45And then it was like kind of pressured me into like being
- 11:49kind of all in on 992 as a production company where I was
- 11:53still operating like that, but it was just not as the volume
- 11:56was not what we're doing now, you know.
- 11:58Yeah, yeah. And then you were reaching out
- 11:59to people, asking them if they wanted you to.
- 12:02Yeah. That's why exactly now you got.
- 12:04Teams you'd be, you'd probably delegate a decent amount of
- 12:08things now and you can operate at like a scale.
- 12:10Yeah, so we had teams that go to Formula Drift, all different
- 12:14events. We do Drift Appalachia.
- 12:17He knows we do all the production for that event, the
- 12:20camera car, the FPV, all that stuff.
- 12:23Oh. Yeah.
- 12:23Yeah, there's a lot of good content from that event.
- 12:26So yeah, we do Chelsea stuff, OK.
- 12:28You know, we have a couple different drivers.
- 12:30Obviously, Reese is part of it. That makes sense why Reese's
- 12:34Japan trip was so beautifully documented.
- 12:36Oh shit, yeah, holy. Fuck, like there was such like
- 12:40an uptick of like it went from like Reese being like yo guys.

- 14:47like, I don't know who this dude is, but this is exactly the vibe
- 14:49that I need around. Yeah.
- 14:50And it was just kind of like, yeah, yeah, it's cool when we
- 14:53start showing. And then it was like.

- 15:00Early on, like in high school and stuff, I was in the Hondas
- 15:02and stuff like that. Yeah.
- 15:03Like, you know, that typical story kind of thing.
- 15:05Yeah. And then just kind of
- 15:07transitioned my way. I shot like very early on, like
- 15:13photos mostly. Like that's what I like went to
- 15:15school for, OK. And I was published in like
- 15:19Modified and all those magazines.
- 15:23And that's how I know like Jonathan Wong, he does like he
- 15:27controls like the media at FD. OK, so we're like very close
- 15:30friends, but he he always was an editor and stuff like that.
- 15:33But yeah, that kind of was like, interesting.
- 15:38What? Year.

- 16:24thing. Yeah, I think it was talking
- 16:25about. That was like one of the 1st
- 16:27events that I shot at English. Now try.
- 16:28To find that now if you can, dude.
- 16:30Sometimes you'll see like a photo or something.
- 16:32From. That era and.
- 16:34We're talking 17 years ago. I was shooting photos.
- 16:37But it's crazy. But there was Internet that's
- 16:39that's like that's like kind of the the best cat read about
- 16:42Internet, right, is we could look way back and see it, but if
- 16:46you fucked up something way back, we're gonna see.
- 16:49Yeah. It's so fucked up but it's such
- 16:52a great tool lately I feel like. I look at my hairstyle
- 16:55sometimes. I'm like Jesus Christ.

- 18:26So, Eric, if you're out there. Was that one of the stops of
- 18:28your guys's recent escapades? For those of you listening who
- 18:30don't know, these guys just went around the world basically
- 18:34recently. We did what, like 11-12 thirteen
- 18:38countries this year, yeah, to. Just to just get right, right?
- 18:42Dude, I didn't even catch that we're doing shit.
- 18:45Over here we're. Just we're not.
- 18:46Doing shit over here. I already said I went to Italy
- 18:49earlier. Yeah.
- 18:50What? The end of the year.
- 18:51I I think Russo definitely has gone more than I have.
- 18:55OK give me oh fuck I I always hate.
- 18:57It's always such a cop out to be like what was your favorite one?
- 19:00Do you have a favorite? 1.
- 19:02Yeah, like. I, I will say because everybody
- 19:04asked me, they're like, I must have loved Japan and I told them
- 19:07I'm like, I'm like, actually I enjoyed my trip to Europe more
- 19:12than my trip to Japan. The reason why is because I
- 19:18Japan is so well documented and I knew the friends I was going
- 19:21to end up meeting there with. So like I you can forecast what
- 19:25that's going to be. I had no clue.
- 19:29Well, I was in store for other than word of mouth through
- 19:31Russo, what Europe was going to be with a group of people who
- 19:35could give a shit who I am. And I don't know these dudes
- 19:39from Adam, you know, at all. You know, I don't know them at
- 19:42all, you know, So it's a whole new nucleus of people.
- 19:46So to go over there and integrate with them and vibe
- 19:49like immediately I was like, dude, this is sick, dude.
- 19:52Drifting felt like the chore. I would tell people like I
- 19:55wanted to hurry up and get done drifting so I could just go hang
- 19:57out and talk shit with people, 'cause if it's one thing these
- 20:00British and and Irish motherfuckers can do is talk
- 20:03shit. I was like.
- 20:04Dude, I don't know if I can go anywhere.
- 20:06That's cool to hear that answer. Like I didn't know you were
- 20:08going to say that. It's awesome.
- 20:09Yeah, no, for sure. It was way more fun.
- 20:12It was way more fun just because I, I, I never would have met
- 20:15these people. Yeah, all of them.
- 20:17All of them were, you know, Al Mountain and and all these
- 20:20dudes. They are a blast.
- 20:21They're. Different characters, you know.
- 20:23Earlier when I was saying like it's it's the best event.
- 20:27Like to me which event is this? Up and smoke.
- 20:29It's called Up and Smoke Tour. OK, We crusade.
- 20:32Is this the crusade? Puts it on?
- 20:33I don't know. It's we crusade Instagram, but
- 20:35we crusade, yeah. Because I was going to.
- 20:37Say, but Crusade is the Al Al runs Crusade and he, it's like
- 20:40his whole tour. It's really cool, he puts on.
- 20:42Yeah, I mean exactly what you said.
- 20:44It's like, I don't know any of that shit, like European shit at
- 20:47all, but the Japanese stuff, it's like, yeah, we all seen it.
- 20:50I brought Chelsea last year and I did like a whole vlog series
- 20:53for him last year because I brought him on the Europe Tour
- 20:56and it's sick or it's sick. We hit like four or five
- 21:01countries. It's 55 tracks.
- 21:03But the trip there bro. You have to drive.
- 21:05You have to drive too. Is it like a month long?
- 21:07So it's like. Drift Week.
- 21:08It's. Week but.
- 21:10It's euro week, Euro. It's drift Euro trip, OK.
- 21:13I would just call it Euro Trip one of us.
- 21:15I was just talking about this movie that would.
- 21:16Be sick. Euro drift?
- 21:18Fuck, he told. Yeah, that is so weird when that
- 21:20happens that but somebody had. Not traveling states, you're
- 21:25traveling countries. It's so good the.
- 21:28Concept of states to other people though is weird.
- 21:31Probably because like, you know, scale wise, I probably is kind
- 21:36of like driving and like from here to I don't fucking.
- 21:39Know it is no, it is for sure for sure.
- 21:41But it's like mind blowing, you know?
- 21:42It is, and your passport just too.
- 21:44Shit. So like.
- 21:45You get probably mad stamps in your stuff.
- 21:47Yeah, you take the cars, you drive them on like a train.
- 21:50That's so sick. You drive onto a train like we
- 21:53started. In the UK, in the UK, we started
- 21:55the UK and we went to Linden Hill.
- 21:57Linden Hill. Yeah, that's.
- 21:58Where that's where it started first, right?
- 22:01And then from there we ended up driving what felt like maybe 3
- 22:05hours or something like that. I don't know what it was.
- 22:06It was a few hours to get to the port or something like that that
- 22:11we're going. To it's called the tunnel, the
- 22:12tunnel for the train. So this is.
- 22:14Nuts. You drive on with your car onto
- 22:16the. Street all the drift cars.
- 22:17All the drift cars drive onto the train, we dock and it's like
- 22:2145 minutes or something. Everybody gets out and hangs out
- 22:24and, you know, shoots the shit and you look out the window and
- 22:26we're just like fucking bullet training to France.
- 22:29Yeah, that's. Crazy with the with.
- 22:31The car, it's not it's not a bullet train, but OK, so you
- 22:33drive it on. And last year it was so funny.
- 22:36Chelsea drove the car, his E36 four door over there and he
- 22:41drove it on the train and it like he went over a bump in
- 22:44there and literally like caught the frame and it's like dude.
- 22:48It was that's what I was about to.
- 22:50That's all I was picturing when you were saying you drive on
- 22:53because like. You got to be careful,
- 22:56obviously. Yeah, yeah.
- 22:57I'm just thinking about what's our cars like?
- 23:00Yeah, like. This year we brought hurt too,
- 23:02so last year I brought Chelsea there, I got this deal going
- 23:05with them and whatever and he came over and then this year we
- 23:08did hurt and him. So it was crazy bro.
- 23:12And what I didn't know was that Julian from Garage D.
- 23:18At the. Store and that dude is someone
- 23:20that I would watch in the old Outsider Drift DVDs from way
- 23:25back in the. Day.
- 23:25Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that had the R32 and R34
- 23:28and all this stuff. I'm like, that'd be so weird.
- 23:29And then I got to meet him and like really talk.
- 23:32He got me on board with R BS. I was.
- 23:35Prepping him because. R BS like the R BS Oh man, what
- 23:38happened? I respect it.
- 23:39I'm not, I'm not going to go out and buy one, but I respect the
- 23:42way he broke it down and JC too. JC had a converse.
- 23:45This was in France. It's, it's crazy to say it like
- 23:47that, but I mean, they're just like explaining and breaking
- 23:50down why this turbo and why there's issues.
- 23:52And it was just really cool to get a different perspective from
- 23:54someone whose whole life or lives are based around that type
- 23:58of shit. You know what I mean?
- 23:59He's the king of building RV's for sure.
- 24:01That dude is the coolest dude. I was trying to tell him before
- 24:04he went, I'm like, that is the coolest dude I've ever met in a
- 24:07couple years. Like he's the coolest.
- 24:09What's? His dude still rape him.
- 24:11What's his Instagram? Julian Smith.
- 24:13And then there's he has garage D is his garage D and I don't know
- 24:18if you saw. So I went to Europe right before
- 24:21this trip and I went to Silverstone and Al from Crusade
- 24:25put on this sick event there and he brought out a blitz car.
- 24:30It was a practice blitz car like he owns it.
- 24:33Damn, no I didn't see. That so cool dude.
- 24:35Is there footage on that? Oh yeah, absolutely.
- 24:37There's footage on mine too. There's there's a bunch of
- 24:40different stuff clips of it, but Juliano's page is sick dude.
- 24:45And he drives in the old style too.
- 24:47And he drives it well. Was the method of travel I guess
- 24:51then after the ferry, after the not ferry that?
- 24:55Train goes underneath the water to France.
- 24:58That's so sick. I I never knew that, so I
- 25:01thought that was insane the first time I did so.
- 25:03Then he came in and. What's the cost looking like
- 25:06here? We haven't talked about a single
- 25:08thing about Yeah, I guess I knew it because that's that's where
- 25:12the that's where like the embellishment of what happens
- 25:15when you go. To I'm gonna keep it a whole
- 25:17bean. With you, I'm gonna keep it a
- 25:18whole bean. It's it's bread, huh?
- 25:19It's like you're spending a few, you're spending a fuel cell.
- 25:23But bro, what a trip of a lifetime bro.
- 25:26Where are you gonna like And I and I, I did it splitting it
- 25:29with with someone you know. Our boy Yuri.
- 25:33Yuri had the the red S15 that like he's.
- 25:35Yeah, that's what I saw. I just.
- 25:37Yeah, Yuri G, he lives in Spain right now, OK?
- 25:40And dude, that dude. There couldn't be more pure soul
- 25:42than that dude. He's he's a cool dude.
- 25:45Like I'm like you want to get a? Crazy trip.
- 25:47Bro. Did you see?
- 25:48Some of that shit, I remember there was a video of you guys,
- 25:50you fuck the car up, but then you're like, yo, we gotta drive
- 25:52this car back so. Yo, so like Yuri, we ended up
- 25:55going oh, that's so we. Were in the coolest place.
- 25:58So we went. So we said UK, right?
- 26:00UK was kind of like because like they were giving us some sound
- 26:02ordinance bullshit. Did you eat beans?
- 26:04Huh. Did you?
- 26:05Eat beans in Yeah on a potato. Get started.
- 26:07We want to start. First of all, we want that
- 26:09conversation. There's too many videos where
- 26:10they bury, you know? Yeah, this is a rough spot.
- 26:14Like food America over. And obviously England.
- 26:17Food is fucking terrible. Yeah.
- 26:18Yeah, I mean. We we eating beans.
- 26:21On toast? Yeah, beans on toast.
- 26:23Malcolm Cons We know Malcolm likes beans and toast, but.
- 26:26What? Oh.
- 26:27He always says I don't know, you eat beans and toast.
- 26:31Nah. Chips.
- 26:32Nah, come on, mom. And.
- 26:34Dad all right, so we went there. We take we take the train, we go
- 26:37to France. France was dope because like
- 26:41you're we're we're driving a good bit now and I'm with hurt
- 26:44than the R32 right And we're just cruising.
- 26:47Together this R32. Not a bad place to be.
- 26:49Not a bad pole, not a boy, is it?
- 26:51And it was cool because this is the first time I really got the
- 26:53vibe with her. Yeah, for a long time.
- 26:55And I'm like, damn, this is such a chill ass dude, you know what
- 26:58I mean? And then bro, oh God.
- 27:00And then he drives, we'll get to that.
- 27:03Her, her throws the fuck down. Like I started like I was in the
- 27:07car with the watching drive and I'm like.
- 27:09This is the R32 that you're going to drift.
- 27:11Yeah, yeah, yeah. OK.
- 27:12Is it a not me He yeah, yeah. And he's ripping alright, but up
- 27:16until this point, I'm just, we're kind of just cruising at
- 27:18this point, just vibing out, listening to music.
- 27:20We get to like, we get to France and it's the, it's a huge
- 27:25training facility or something like that.
- 27:27So it's like a town. Dodge like even had cars there
- 27:30or something like that. They use it for like, so there's
- 27:33like a highway, there's a huge trip of a lifetime, bro.
- 27:37There's a like there's a makeshift town and stuff.
- 27:39So we didn't get to obviously use the entire facility, but
- 27:43when you guys, we only got to use a little bit of it.
- 27:46But you can see how this could potentially progress into
- 27:50something. I mean, you can essentially take
- 27:52over this entire training town. I'm picturing the COD map.
- 27:57You remember the did you? Do you remember back in the day
- 27:59like it was a fake map it? Was yeah, it looks like that we
- 28:03have a new video from each stop like that.
- 28:06My boy Feltz put together because I brought him on this
- 28:09trip like for 992 to because we cover the whole trip and stuff
- 28:12like that with Al and Crusade and like dude, he put together
- 28:16the most bangers each day. Like they're on 992 and they're
- 28:20just like. Beautiful.
- 28:21They put together a really good vibe.
- 28:22You gotta check it out just so you can see what the trip's like
- 28:24you know for yourself. Dude the the OK so turnover of
- 28:29media cuz now you guys are all the way out there.
- 28:32Do you guys still have a job to do?
- 28:34What was like? Do you guys have all your stuff?
- 28:37I don't know how they did. Yes, yeah.
- 28:40I think they took shifts. Like what?
- 28:42It's just power banks on power banks on power banks.
- 28:44Yeah, actually, yeah, in. The car, they're like in the car
- 28:47while they're we're traveling to the next one.
- 28:49These nerds are in there just. That's crazy.
- 28:51It's gotta. It's gotta happen.
- 28:52That's crazy. Yeah, it's, well, whether I was
- 28:55like doing like 360 pole clips while we're driving, editing
- 29:00those and then Felts is working on the laptop cutting stuff up
- 29:03like, dude, it's it's it's non-stop and it's super fun.
- 29:07We had a we had a bigger crew this year for media.
- 29:09It was tight with this dude, Oscar and stuff like that.
- 29:11He and Russo really understands that he'll he'll post in the
- 29:17moment and it feels so much better 'cause it's like, oh,
- 29:20this just happened 5 minutes ago.
- 29:23Like he won't miss. Like little stuff like that.
- 29:25Like if we're broken down somewhere or something like
- 29:27that, like he'll shoot for his or his video and stuff like
- 29:30that, but he'll also like post up clips and stuff like that.
- 29:33And I'm like, you really are in real time keeping up with the
- 29:36entire trip as you're going on. You know what I mean?
- 29:39And now you can like look back on that on Instagram and
- 29:41everything, right? So you can, yeah, you can.
- 29:44How is that shit saved like that?
- 29:46I don't know, I don't know. Like everyone's stories are just
- 29:49archived forever, is that a thing?
- 29:51I don't know. The answer I don't know the
- 29:52answer to. That go save them now.
- 29:54You brought it up. Just go save them now.
- 29:56Bro, that's a. Lot.
- 29:57Figure it out. Well, it's good.
- 29:59You can go back and then you can just like highlight them like we
- 30:02should. Yeah, Yeah, 92 is just highlight
- 30:03all our series from that trip too.
- 30:05Yeah, yeah, yeah. You ever scroll back to like a
- 30:07really fucking old one, dude? I try not to but.
- 30:10There's like, there's like really old one.
- 30:12You can go really far back. And get depressed.
- 30:15Probably, yeah. I don't.
- 30:16I don't like doing that. You're like, oh.
- 30:17Shit, fuck. I could delete this as well.
- 30:20Yeah, Yeah. You guys.
- 30:20Could have the highlights of every trip too.
- 30:23Yeah, Yeah, we should do that. I'm gonna do that.
- 30:25We're there amazing facility. The vibes are good.
- 30:29They they cater every event, so they're, they're cooking there
- 30:32and everything, so that's amazing.
- 30:34This is in France. This is in France at this point.
- 30:36What kind of cuisine did you have?
- 30:38I think it was just burgers. Well.
- 30:40Because, because when we're at the track, like Crusades, whole
- 30:43thing is like when you buy in this thing, like they cook
- 30:46lunch. Oh, it's all.
- 30:47Of that, yeah. It's just like we have our boy
- 30:50Trevor, dude, he's like the Angel of the trip.
- 30:52Like he takes care of us and like he cooks the whole time.
- 30:56Like if you need anything, that dude will figure out something.
- 30:59He's a super cool dude. Trevor.
- 31:01Yeah, in any country. So what we, yes, we leave
- 31:05France. France was dope, but it was just
- 31:07like, we're there for the tree episode.
- 31:09We're like, alright. And then the best.
- 31:10Then we leave. Then it's like you leave France
- 31:13from France driving all the way up to Andorra.
- 31:17Dude where the fuck is this is? A beautiful track they'll get.
- 31:19Google this track Breeze. Pull up Andorra.
- 31:23Andorra. Crazy it is last year.
- 31:26It has to be on your list to go shred.
- 31:28Yeah, definitely. Last year it snowed there, so
- 31:31it's like it looks like a video game.
- 31:33The drone footage like it just looks like a video, looks like
- 31:37Forza. It would be.
- 31:38This year we had this crazy heavy fog.
- 31:40It was. Foggiest frog?
- 31:41Beautiful bird. I would see it on Reese's story
- 31:44and I'm like. There it is up here.
- 31:45What? Is happening or like you enter
- 31:48and then here's like a beautiful landscape.
- 31:50Doesn't do it justice stuff. Dude, no, wrong photo.
- 31:53Like you're gonna it. Actually doesn't look real.
- 31:55It girl, it's. It's on the side of a mountain,
- 31:58right? And if you look up.
- 32:01Like that? Yeah, you.
- 32:03You can kind. Of see like when you're when
- 32:04you're drifting and you're entering, if you look up you can
- 32:08see why I'm I'm assuming it's wild cow and wild horses that
- 32:12are just up on the mountain side dude.
- 32:15That's crazy. Reese is.
- 32:17And where? Reese is entering in a car by
- 32:19the. Way in our video in our video we
- 32:22have like a cow in it and stuff like in the past or like.
- 32:25Come to find out indoor is like second safest place in the world
- 32:28type shit. Wait, this is a country?
- 32:30OK, it's a country. It's it's like little.
- 32:32It's a nation state in between France and Spain.
- 32:37It's. Really cool.
- 32:38It's really like a like skiing like mountain town, yes kind of
- 32:43thing. It looks beautiful.
- 32:45Wealthy people vacation there there, like a lot of Spain,
- 32:48people go there and stuff. Like that looks beautiful.
- 32:50You trying to press someone, that's where.
- 32:53You go bro. Andor is so cool dude.
- 32:54It's amazing. And how small it is, and it has
- 32:57its own track and everything, that's what.
- 32:58It's top five in the world. It's got to be top five tracks
- 33:02in. The world it looks.
- 33:02Beautiful. I think the highest.
- 33:03Very well taken. Care of track in the world.
- 33:05Yeah, it looks like you. Lose a lot of horsepower out
- 33:07there because a lack of. Yeah, that kind of sucks.
- 33:10That kind of sucks. What was the what was the weapon
- 33:14of choice like? What was the car that was a
- 33:15common more common there than here?
- 33:18Is it the same G35 E 36? You were driving an S15 bro.
- 33:24You mean amongst those guys? Yeah, yeah.
- 33:25Like I guess I would say amongst.
- 33:26Those guys, I would say S chassis couple.
- 33:29JZX. Couple JZX's and a couple S
- 33:32fifteens. Does drifting regularly go on at
- 33:36that track or is that just the one time a year?
- 33:39But at that specific track, it's E chassis.
- 33:41Yeah, that's called like BMW. E chassis, yeah, that was
- 33:45generally overall that's just. Yeah, I think of that as the
- 33:48European mobile. Oh yeah, drifting.
- 33:51It's their Ford. It's their.
- 33:52Shuttle, they have a lot of them like so that would make sense,
- 33:56but man that track was so pretty.
- 33:58Dude it was amazing when it was foggy.
- 34:00I'm like, I'm 100% sending it 100% hard on this one.
- 34:06Like, when are you ever gonna get to shred?
- 34:08Well, you saw the video. I was.
- 34:10Pegged. I know, dude, I know.
- 34:12I was like wait. Pause, pause, pause You.
- 34:14Say bro, thank you, thank you, thank you.
- 34:17Great. We were on the same page with
- 34:19that one cuz I was like. I was trying to unhear that bro.
- 34:23So I. Was like.
- 34:25I would see it because Reese is a meta glasses guy.
- 34:28Yeah, there's a drive pretty footage with Reese with you can.
- 34:31Put him on to that with. I was like the first one to
- 34:33have. He was like you.
- 34:34Should go. But then I started like I
- 34:35started talking about you should go to.
- 34:37You should go. Listen, I worked at Snapchat up
- 34:41in New York, like way back, and I forget, but I got those
- 34:45glasses like they gave me like a Oh my God.
- 34:48I forgot that those exist. Yes, I was using those at first.
- 34:52I mean, I was like shooting drift content on them.
- 34:54And then when the stories came out like the first meta edition
- 34:58ones, I bought them because I was like, no one's buying these.
- 35:02I was like, I I'm going to use it for like in drift car like
- 35:05stuff. No one wanted to wear them at
- 35:07first. Yeah, yeah.
- 35:08I would just film myself in my car, like I suck, you know?
- 35:11I'm just learning. So I'm like, OK, cool.
- 35:14It made sense I and because at that point I was not.
- 35:16Everyone, it's just. In my phone I was.
- 35:18I remember reason. Having it the most.
- 35:20There was a. There was a version before
- 35:22those. Yes, yeah, yeah, yes.
- 35:24But I started pushing out. I think the only reason that I
- 35:30because a lot of people have said that, but it's not because
- 35:33it was me, it was because the very first content that I shot
- 35:37with those was Drift Appalachian footage.
- 35:39So like that content because it is Drift Appalachian and that's
- 35:43what set it off. Everybody would ask me why, what
- 35:48are you using? But then there was other people
- 35:50there asking me how come in this footage it was a wider lens.
- 35:53So the trick there was. This is good.
- 35:57I was using my phone at .5 and I was stuffing it into my.
- 36:01Yeah, yeah, that's why I remember sick.
- 36:04I love that. So I want that is.
- 36:05That Russo media training right there.
- 36:08That was me just being a broke boy and I was like, dude, then
- 36:10he did them and then he was like, yo bro, you so being a
- 36:13Dick head. And I was like, yeah, you're
- 36:14probably right. Well, so then I got home and I
- 36:16was like, oh, this is the best thing.
- 36:17Ever. I remember those.
- 36:18I was like, yo, how are you getting these videos?
- 36:20And you're like, I'm sticking my phone in my helmet or some shit,
- 36:22and I'm like, yeah. I was like, what?
- 36:24I would try to find smaller helmets just so they could wedge
- 36:26it in and stay nice and tight and stuff.
- 36:29I only wanted to do that footage because FD when I was shooting
- 36:33at FD with like Vaughn and Chelsea and stuff like that,
- 36:37they were like, no, you can't put Gopros on the helmet
- 36:41anymore, which is if you look outside of drifting motorsport
- 36:45is common thing like it's a safety thing.
- 36:47It doesn't distribute, you know, energy properly.
- 36:51What? So, you know, if it hits the
- 36:54camera, it doesn't, the helmet's not truly doing it the right.
- 36:57I'm thinking of like. So if you hit your Yeah.
- 36:59Like if it like it's. Probably somebody.
- 37:01Could get you so I I totally get it from other Motorsports, so it
- 37:04makes sense to me, but so I was bummed to lose that angle
- 37:07because I think it's the coolest.
- 37:09Yeah. So I tried to sneak like all
- 37:11these other little things they had like these insta goes like
- 37:14little pill looking like camera. So it was magnetic and I was
- 37:17like, yo, it's magnetic. It'll fall off if it gets it or
- 37:20whatever. And they kind of let it go for a
- 37:21little bit. Then Kevin Wells was like, Nah,
- 37:24like get that on here. So then I was just kept trying
- 37:28to find different things. And then I saw like the F1
- 37:30things that are like in the visor.
- 37:33And then then the when the glass came, I was like, this is that?
- 37:36Yeah, like yes, but then most people would like Chelsea
- 37:39wouldn't wear them at first. I mean dude, you have a helmet
- 37:42on, it doesn't even matter at that point.
- 37:43Yeah, and I think that's what people liked.
- 37:45You could see through the camera.
- 37:46He wears glasses. Yeah.
- 37:49Chelsea wears glasses. It looked like it was my eyes.
- 37:52Yeah, no, that's why it's. Awesome in the helmet, that's
- 37:55what people liked. I tried to get Kazooie to wear
- 37:57them I think once in practice, and he was like, I'm like what?
- 38:02All right, cool. Do you think, do you think that
- 38:04is like you remember when you were a kid and you would think
- 38:07about what the future was like? Do you think those are what you
- 38:10envisioned? Because I'm picturing like I was
- 38:13picturing like when I was a kid. It would.
- 38:15It would do. FaceTime did it for me.
- 38:17Oh, that's that's the one. You're I grew up, I grew up
- 38:20watching the Ninja Turtles and they had the turtle com, which
- 38:22was FaceTime the shell and now that's literally the same thing.
- 38:26And I'm like, wow. So you're already you're.
- 38:28Living in the future? Right now I'm already there.
- 38:30Damn, my expectations were like higher for some reason, yeah.
- 38:33Well, what were you expecting? Well, I don't know.
- 38:35I would. I don't.
- 38:36Know I'm waiting for cars. Flying for it.
- 38:38I was picturing like something would be in the like I'd be able
- 38:41to like. AR.
- 38:43Yeah, augmented reality, I guess.
- 38:45They're. Starting down that route now
- 38:47with the next ones that just came out I.
- 38:49Thought I saw something about that.
- 38:50Wait, that's like I don't. Want.
- 38:51Those. Like no it's there is like text
- 38:54messages that pop. Fuck that, I'm good on that.

- 40:42The thing is though. The good news is.
- 40:44You're not you're, you're going to have perfect eyesight because
- 40:47your eyes are going to get replaced.
- 40:48That would be great right now dude.
- 40:49That's how they're. Going to get everyone.
- 40:51I'm scared that glasses was a scam this whole time.
- 40:53Dude like. Everything's a fucking scam.
- 40:54No, but. What?
- 40:55My eye grade has been the same. My eye grade has been the same
- 40:59for freaking years. Well, glasses.
- 41:01Are you upset about it or no? No.
- 41:03I feel like they were. The struggle.
- 41:06It was like, it was like right off the RIP, just the same grade
- 41:09for eternity. Like they got bad once and that
- 41:12was it. Oh so.
- 41:13You're saying that's the best case scenario, but they.
- 41:15But for a little bit I tested like, not I tested it, but like
- 41:19you I'm. Sorry, are you disappointed?
- 41:20They would tell you like 3 or A2 and then you would pick the one.
- 41:24I went down back down in grade just to see what the fucking eye
- 41:28doctor would say. He's the same shit.
- 41:30How do you know which one was the downgrade?
- 41:31There was definitely one that was a little more HD.
- 41:33Than that one, this one, this one.
- 41:35No, go back. I don't like, I don't like that
- 41:38scenario, No, but. But I feel like I feel like I.
- 41:40Don't even know what's going on right now I.
- 41:41Really know when their. Contacts or some?
- 41:43Shit no, like when you go to eye doctor and like A or B.
- 41:46Oh, he has. No, last time I was eye doctor
- 41:47has by 12. Yeah, he has probably no one.
- 41:49Yeah, this guy doesn't do anything.
- 41:51Health. Related, There's a couple of
- 41:53years I'm not. Is there a supplement for that?
- 41:55All right, let me take that. I feel like in the future now,
- 41:57now that we have all of this, all of those like optometry
- 41:59stuff is going to be gone. Dude.
- 42:02Because then everybody's going to be able to see.
- 42:04I don't want to have surgery on my eyes, but hey, if you're
- 42:06giving me. Perfect eyesight.
- 42:07I did it. You did it.
- 42:09It's you did. Yo, you're OK, I get to ask you
- 42:12about this. Yeah, yeah, even recently.
- 42:14No, I definitely. Told him without me.
- 42:17I. Forgot this a while ago though.
- 42:21That's crazy because a while ago I did not love it.
- 42:23I'm sure it's actually easier today and I'm sure it's a lot
- 42:26better. I'm the type of person that
- 42:28needs to know like how the procedure goes.
- 42:30Exactly. Oh God, I don't like if I here.
- 42:32We go. Here we go.
- 42:33I had to get like injected in my shoulder once, like into the
- 42:35bone died to get MRI. I'm like, I'm good.
- 42:40I just need to watch it happen. And then the nurse was like,
- 42:43Nah, don't watch it. Like no one watches it.
- 42:45I'm like I need it's a robot that comes down and does it.
- 42:48I'm like I need to or I won't be good, so I watch.
- 42:51It was good, everything was fine.
- 42:53But you. Don't you don't trust them?
- 42:55Like I gotta watch. No, just feel better.
- 42:56Like watch, I'm like, alright, here comes the pains coming,
- 42:59like here we are. But yeah, the eye thing, like
- 43:02they don't really tell you. They were all secretive.
- 43:05Oh, maybe there is actually a secret.
- 43:07No, there's not really. They kind of show you like a
- 43:10video, but it's like, not really.
- 43:12I'm like, So what exactly happens here?
- 43:15And they like kind of like skate around it.
- 43:17That's the only reason why I didn't like it.
- 43:18But I'm sure you know but. Now you see videos where it's
- 43:21like. But they described it.
- 43:23I sat through like a A girl in like 1 of my classes early on in
- 43:26college had her presentation on LASIK and I thought for some
- 43:31reason it I thought they just zapped the shit with a laser.
- 43:35Yeah, the word LASIK just sounds like that's what it entails.
- 43:39But when I sat through the presentation, when I.
- 43:42Sat. When I sat through the
- 43:44presentation, at least unless the process developed, they cut.
- 43:49Yes. Like a flap of the eye.
- 43:52Peel it back. Peel it back.
- 43:54I'm OK with that. And then they like coderize the
- 43:56like. Peeling back is like this little
- 43:58sponge that like pushes the layer.
- 44:00How are you OK? With.
- 44:01This yo and the part yo, you're OK with that?
- 44:04Am I yo, you want to hear that? Are you OK?
- 44:06Part is not even that part. It's the first part that
- 44:09happens. You ever seen like a scary movie
- 44:11and shit like where they have like their eyes like open with
- 44:15the no with those with the. Clamp.
- 44:17Oh yeah, yeah, clamp. Clamp.
- 44:18Orange type shit you've. Got it.
- 44:20Do you? Frank, are you not about it?
- 44:21Now come. On yo it does not feel good be
- 44:23in a close you. Can't please, you know, you're
- 44:25like. Whore dude, I'm fucking good.
- 44:27That's doesn't go blind. Listen they put a video on to
- 44:30start brainwashing you bro it's. It's for the hardcore.
- 44:35Did it? Yeah, it is.
- 44:37It definitely is. 'Cause there's a chance through
- 44:39the war. There's a chance it could not
- 44:40work. Well, I wear I have glasses now
- 44:41too. Wait.
- 44:42Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Wait.
- 44:43Back up. Oh my God.
- 44:46Wait, I look how that just went over.
- 44:48Yeah. Why do you have a?
- 44:491000 lives here. Jesus.
- 44:51Christ. Dude, you're awake for this
- 44:53shit. Yes, you can't be.
- 44:54As are you watching the video? You guys are all sick.
- 44:57He was like bro. After you, they make you like
- 45:02blink and then you have to try to read a chart.
- 45:04They're like, you have to look right now and read this chart.
- 45:07And yeah, when it's burning, it's like burning.
- 45:10It does not feel good. You're like and then you do it
- 45:14and you're just like. Oh, you can read it OK, good
- 45:16signs. Then it's like dark and you just
- 45:18go dark for a couple days, you know, you wake up the next day
- 45:20or something, you're fine. There was so.
- 45:23You just like wear the glasses, you know, I'm like.
- 45:26I worked with somebody before where they.
- 45:27Black jeans. Yeah, you got to just not have
- 45:30any light really coming in and you want to keep your eyes.
- 45:32Closed people, they be all. I just slept and woke up and I
- 45:35was fine and then like it's not that bad.
- 45:38Like I truly don't need to always wear glasses, but like my
- 45:41right eye I got like a little softer.
- 45:44So like the imbalance makes me tired throughout the day.
- 45:48Bro. Fuck this shit.
- 45:50So what the lazy didn't work? It's way better it's way.
- 45:54Better because my shit was deep bro.
- 45:57My I have bad. I don't have bad eyes to get my
- 46:00eyes cut for way better yo bro but you might fall.
- 46:04But it's more you, way better yo.
- 46:06Yo, do you think they explain that to me like that?
- 46:08No, no, like I wish it was good. Like what I'm?
- 46:11Like I'm gonna keep real. I wouldn't take it ain't
- 46:14perfect, but it's kind of close. To that we did alright here
- 46:19like. So I'm gonna be 100 after this.
- 46:20When was this? What?
- 46:21What year was this? What year was this?
- 46:23I didn't get any money back either.
- 46:25Well, you. That's.
- 46:26'Cause they made you sign that thing before.
- 46:27You. That was the rebate.
- 46:28They were like waiver the rebate.
- 46:30Do what you said, No. Yeah.
- 46:33I kind of, I think nowadays it's probably a lot better.
- 46:35I I know. I don't think they gotta cut and
- 46:37peel back now. I think there's something else
- 46:38that happens now. Yeah, I get Facebook ads for it
- 46:41now. I guess it might not be that
- 46:42big. We're gonna get them now.
- 46:43I think that's for sure there's there's one of them that like
- 46:47you can just cure with eye drops now.
- 46:49Yeah, sign me up for that one. Like it's.
- 46:51The thing is, it's. Like sign me up for that.
- 46:53I'm. Not worried about none of this
- 46:54stuff 'cause I feel like all this development and stuff will.
- 46:56Happen. Yeah, like.
- 46:57We just yeah, we're just getting older.
- 46:58I'm. Just waiting for the update.
- 47:00I'm waiting for the two point the 1.5.
- 47:02Yeah, you're waiting. You're getting the link dude.
- 47:03You're waiting for like you're waiting for like in Futurama
- 47:06when they got the heads in the jar that you're just waiting
- 47:09like, yeah, I'll. Be.
- 47:10I'll be fine I think eventually I honestly, and I could be
- 47:13wrong, but if we can make it to like we're about 80.
- 47:19Right. It's going to be crazy.
- 47:20Wait a minute. Wait where?
- 47:21Where is that? I already know where he's going.
- 47:24We. Can make it if we can make it
- 47:26till. We're about 80.
- 47:26I think there'll be enough technology.
- 47:28Medicine will be a lot better. We'll be forever.
- 47:30We'll be able to live, maybe not forever, but maybe a lot longer
- 47:34because we'll be so much more advanced.
- 47:35Why is that sending Russo so? Hard right now.
- 47:38Dude, because just on that kind of.
- 47:41Topic. On that kind of topic, it was so
- 47:43funny. Like in Japan, he had this
- 47:45moment. He's like, man, like, you know,
- 47:47I could probably only do this for a couple more years.
- 47:50And I was like, well, that's. Amazing, bro.
- 47:52I was like, bro, look at this. These old dudes here, like what
- 47:56was it, a Tuesday drifting? I'm like, I'm like bro, like

- 49:14but I got it. We got a touch on one subject
- 49:15though, right? Oh God.

- 49:19days. Because it was one of the
- 49:21coolest tracks. Because it was coolest tracks

- 49:58population of that country and then compare it to New Jersey?
- 50:01Well, I just want to see where they stayed at.

- 50:25Messy. 'S New York City.
- 50:27It was Messy's restaurant. Like, like the like the soccer
- 50:30player. Yeah, the fuck.
- 50:32So me hurt Reese, we all went there and.
- 50:35Like we're trying to go with some bougie shit, so let's go.
- 50:38Yeah, that's why you said a couple thou.
- 50:40Yeah. No.
- 50:41No, no, that's separate. Yo food is important to us
- 50:44wherever we are. No, especially if you're there.
- 50:47I would want I was gonna ask like, did you go out in the town
- 50:51Because I wanted to know like maybe what but the.
- 50:53Pacing, the pacing is very quick on this because you're driving a
- 50:57lot, so you're stopping getting gas like doing the road thing,
- 51:02but you're really in it. So like it's really an authentic
- 51:06experience, you know, and. What I love about it, what I
- 51:09love about this group, is that anytime someone would break
- 51:14down, you're all connected through the WhatsApp.
- 51:17So you all see the map where everyone's AT.
- 51:19And if someone breaks down, everyone gets, everyone
- 51:22congregates there in order to resolve that situation.
- 51:25Because I guess it's different in America because we're in
- 51:30America, but here you're in different countries.
- 51:31Yeah, You know what I mean? And like, the moment you cross
- 51:34over into like a different country, it's like there,
- 51:37there's this. It's just it's different.
- 51:39It's going to be a lot harder. You you run into issues which we
- 51:42totally did. What like.
- 51:44It was it was chill. It was chill compared to the
- 51:46year before. Like when Chelsea went bro, he
- 51:49got pulled over a million times. I almost went to jail the one
- 51:52night in Portugal with that dude Al.
- 51:54We got pulled over and it was. Modifications are strict there.
- 51:58We had a friend. Isn't that like the big deal?
- 52:01Like we have friends that we run into when we're in final belt.
- 52:04I don't know if you ever got to meet these guys.
- 52:06No, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. Rafa and them, they're, they're
- 52:09from like Portugal and they're like, yeah, we can't mod
- 52:11anything. Yeah, I mean, Spain too, like
- 52:14gave us some huge problem, but everything was legal because if
- 52:18it's like registered in the UK, you have moving rights through
- 52:21countries. Like they just kind of gave us a
- 52:24hard time really. They were like.
- 52:25You guys look like drug dealers. You know, it doesn't look good
- 52:28when you look at someone like me and has like all black dickies
- 52:31on and my boy drive in's from Ireland Al that has a black he
- 52:37has a black cut off vest on with like, you know, rockers and
- 52:40stuff. You're like none of us.
- 52:42You're like this doesn't look great.
- 52:44Yeah, it doesn't look great. It doesn't look.
- 52:45You know, I was like I did the whole like, my hands are out
- 52:48like this, like I'm not getting shot tonight and I chill.
- 52:52We're in Portugal, you know. Yeah.
- 52:54But they had their guns. I was.
- 52:55Going to say do they even have guns there like I?
- 52:57Don't know they were so serious. Yeah, those countries, we had an
- 53:01Irish passport, my passport from here, the America and then the
- 53:07UK, it was registered in the UK. OK, So they're like.
- 53:10What do we do? Yeah, you know, and there's like
- 53:14nothing to do. So the ones they found out like
- 53:16we were chill and like all that, but like, no, they were like
- 53:18guns and like I had my hands off 'cause I'm like, yo, this is a
- 53:22process. I know the deal here.
- 53:24And like Al didn't, he was driver and they were like put
- 53:28your hands off. I was like Oh my God, I'm like
- 53:30dude come on bro like. Yeah.
- 53:33Like so he was. Sitting there I was like, bro,
- 53:35you don't know what to. Do or they don't do this in.
- 53:37Ireland, I'm not sure like. Al is every bit of a boondock
- 53:41Sant, I'm gonna tell you. Something dude, he's the man.
- 53:43100% like he live breathe. I mean, I'm, I'm sure that's not
- 53:47what he's going for, but like, he just has that, that cowboy
- 53:50mentality. He's like, excuse me, what?
- 53:52Yeah, like I'll give you respect when you're going to respect me
- 53:54first. Yeah.
- 53:55I like that. I was like, yeah, this dude's
- 53:57for real. You know what?
- 53:58I. Mean they're they're some of the
- 53:59coolest people that we've met in the past couple years.
- 54:03Those dudes that kind of do all that.
- 54:04The Irish dudes, they're so fun bro.
- 54:06How'd that situation play out? The jail.
- 54:10Oh, so they went through everything, like, you know, my
- 54:15bag, all this stuff. And I was worried.
- 54:17I was like, Oh my God, I'm done. Like and they pull out this jar
- 54:22and I travel with this jar. I know this sounds crazy but
- 54:24like it's even it doesn't. Sound that crazy?
- 54:27Yeah, yeah. It's a jar of Peppers.
- 54:29It's my family blend of Peppers that I've, you know, been in my
- 54:34family for a while, you know, now it's crazy.
- 54:36I'm Sicilian. I bring, OK, so like that.
- 54:39I'm Sicilian. AI bring this I bring I eat I
- 54:42like to eat curly good. Do you eat but there for?
- 54:44You to eat like with a meal grounded, Yeah.
- 54:47Put them on like pizza. Bro, we'll be on somewhere.
- 54:50And before he starts eating, he whips out his little jar.
- 54:52It says Russo's family secret recipe.
- 54:54Whatever the fuck. Fire goes.
- 54:55In on top again. Yeah, we're gonna need, we're
- 54:57gonna need something. I wish we fucking had a pie we
- 55:00could fuck. You definitely.
- 55:01Have some in your pocket bro. Yeah, have it in my bag and I.
- 55:05Find this. And I'm like, they're screwed
- 55:08because they're open. And I'm like, they're going to
- 55:10smell this. And I'm like, I was trying to
- 55:12record and stuff. Like, I was like, this is
- 55:14hilarious. Like, he's about to smell this.
- 55:16He opens it up. He's like, Eddie looks and he's
- 55:19like, no, he doesn't do it. I was like, oh, my God.
- 55:21OK. Because it.
- 55:22This looks odd. Yeah, It's a little jar of like,
- 55:24stuff. You're like, yeah, what the fuck
- 55:26is this? But it was cool.
- 55:28Like, once they searched everything and realized, like,
- 55:31it was all chill. Like there was nothing they
- 55:33could do. We had someone come and pick up
- 55:36the car because the reason we didn't we could have got away
- 55:39like drove like we were at a meet and we were leaving.
- 55:43We left early because it was getting a little wild there.
- 55:45This is in Portugal the first year and it was crazy.
- 55:48Everyone doing crazy burnouts at the spot.
- 55:50Like it was wild. Almost like a takeover, but not
- 55:53like a takeover at all because we were at a shop at first, but
- 55:58we left and we a cop just randomly pulled us over and we
- 56:02but we ran out of gas. Like we could to flip around.
- 56:05We could have been gone like you know what I mean, But we ran out
- 56:07of gas. So we convinced them like we
- 56:10convinced them basically. What the.
- 56:12Fuck for you. That's so.
- 56:14This dude last year Chafin was on the tour and he's like a
- 56:18YouTube over there and he like came with his trailer real quick
- 56:23and like picked us up and I was like our saving grace.
- 56:25Also. They were like, we're going to
- 56:26take this car like, you know, but yeah, when we were trying to
- 56:29get away and 1st getting pulled over, I was like, bro, go.
- 56:32Like we even had someone blocking for us.
- 56:34We're like, I'm like, bro, what are you doing to Al?
- 56:36I'm like, yeah, well, what are you doing, man?
- 56:38Like we're we should go. And he's like shaking the car.
- 56:42He's like we're out of gas. I'm like, I'm like bro.
- 56:49That's some bullshit that would happen to me, I think.
- 56:50Yep. Have you seen that dude JC?
- 56:53He was at Drift Appalachia, had a had the court, the white
- 56:57Corvette, and then he had the S15 that I brought there to this
- 56:59guy. Dude, he goes on the tour each
- 57:01year and he's just like I call him the king of crime because
- 57:04he's always out there St. owing. Like, Oh, really?
- 57:06Yeah, they're St. owing. But like, yo, it's so fun.
- 57:09Like the whole tour, like obviously you're kind of driving
- 57:11around. You're like ton of roundabouts,
- 57:14ton of like random things. Yeah, JC definitely strikes you,
- 57:16strikes me as like, like one of those like.
- 57:19Him and Julian. I don't really.
- 57:20Know him and Julian, they don't care.
- 57:22They will drive the streets. But it's like I feel like in
- 57:24other countries. I feel like it's one of those.
- 57:26Julian at the port did a burnout.
- 57:28Yeah. Like, I'm like, you're going to
- 57:30jail. You're going to jail.
- 57:31I'm there's nothing we can do about.
- 57:32To go to international jail, That's that.
- 57:34Yeah, we're talking about all of this and I'm quietly listening
- 57:37because I'm like, if I got in trouble, I'd be really nervous
- 57:40to not be able to come back. Dude, that night when I was like
- 57:44when they had me by the car, everything out, you know, like
- 57:47sitting on the guardrail. Yeah, it's I, I slow text my my
- 57:50parents. I was like, yeah I'm gonna share
- 57:52my location right now cuz cuz low key I think I might go to
- 57:56jail in Portugal tonight. If I text that to my mom, I'm
- 58:01getting my ass beat from oceans away.
- 58:05Some have. Imagine getting the location
- 58:07you're like. What, though, she's finding?
- 58:08You for sure. 1000 Yeah, let me share my location with my family
- 58:11text Yeah. God damn well I'm glad that you.
- 58:15Yeah. And that was year one.
- 58:16That played out. That was Year 2 is.
- 58:18Maybe year 2 there was. More of an expectation.
- 58:20For a huge year 2, you think those guys know what?
- 58:24Happened. In year 2, we ended up doing.
- 58:26Oh yeah, you were with them. It wasn't too crazy this year.
- 58:30Like it was really mild compared to the first.
- 58:31Year I think the reason why too, and it happened on multiple
- 58:34occasions, is because I speak Spanish.
- 58:37So every time they would start popping off in Spain, I would
- 58:40just be like, hey, listen, like I understand you guys need XY
- 58:43and Z, we're going to do all of that.
- 58:45But like, don't yell at us. Like, well, like they don't
- 58:47speak Spanish. I do.
- 58:49They were you, so you were the mitigate.
- 58:51You were like. Really helps if that happens.
- 58:53Last year we had he's a pro skater.
- 58:56He's on like monster and stuff. His name is Jorge.
- 59:01Super cool dude. He came on the tour last year
- 59:03and he met up for one stop. This year he shrugs.
- 59:06But last year he did same thing. Like, he did a lot of like the
- 59:09talking to the cops when Chelsea got pulled over and stuff like
- 59:12that and like, saved us because the language barrier is real.
- 59:15Yeah, they were strict. They were pulling everybody
- 59:17over, taking everybody shit apart.
- 59:18So this is so we're in. We're now trying to get into
- 59:20Spain after leaving Andorra and we're trying to get into Spain
- 59:25and we come up to I'm with hurt and I'm with one.
- 59:30I forget his name dude. Everyone in the group was like,
- 59:33dude, there's a blockade or something.
- 59:35Like that. So we're all in there and I
- 59:38would say they stop us. So now you have two Americans,
- 59:41black dude, British dude in the back.
- 59:44This car is registered to some Irish dude, so they pull us
- 59:49over. Hurts Julian's guy.
- 59:52Yeah, hurts on his phone, which is a big no no to be on your
- 59:55phone like when like. While they're talking to you, so
- 59:57they. Tell him three times and they're
- 59:59like, hey, listen, like, you know, if he doesn't, if he does
- 1:00:02it again, like we're going to take him to jail.
- 1:00:03So it hurt like abruptly less, you know, obviously he's
- 1:00:05pressed. Understandably, he's pissed at
- 1:00:07this point. Drops his phone and I had a they
- 1:00:11saw that he was upset at that point, so I had to turn to them.
- 1:00:14I'm like, listen. He just woke up and I literally
- 1:00:18verbatim like a black dude wakes up and he has like 3 cops around
- 1:00:21and we just got pulled over and he just woke up.
- 1:00:23What do you think he's going to think dude?
- 1:00:24Like why are you yelling at us? Imagine him explaining this.
- 1:00:28I wish, I wish this. Was so Spanish.
- 1:00:30Like are these interactions? Films.
- 1:00:32Because that was hurt. Yes, a lot.
- 1:00:34On his meta glasses but we didn't want to get caught
- 1:00:36because the lights. Come.
- 1:00:39On so like we're hurt wanted to film some more up, but like
- 1:00:42after that we came out, we explained everything.
- 1:00:45The reason why they were a little sketchy is because they
- 1:00:49wanted to know how we got here from the UK.
- 1:00:53So when they looked at our passports and they saw all of us
- 1:00:57got stamped from the train together, that's when all of our
- 1:01:01stories lined up and they're like, Oh no, they're good,
- 1:01:03'cause if not what, you know? Why?
- 1:01:05What was the sketch? What was the?
- 1:01:07They were pulling over. They were pulling over cars,
- 1:01:10checking for drugs or whatever. They were pulled.
- 1:01:12They were taking a. Blockade, like I said and and
- 1:01:14they told us and I was like, yo, we can't go that way.
- 1:01:17A bunch of us broke off in a group and then somehow they were
- 1:01:19in a I'm. Like you guys got to do
- 1:01:21something because we had nothing on us, nothing, nothing at all,
- 1:01:24but they went through all of our shit.
- 1:01:25But we like explained everything calmly and everything because if
- 1:01:28not, I saw the BMW and they were taking apart cushions and this
- 1:01:31and that. I'm like, we are not getting
- 1:01:33that happening. You know what I mean?
- 1:01:34You were I'm like this, this isn't I'm like, yo, we're
- 1:01:37talking about this like I was ready to like pay my way through
- 1:01:40it or whatever. I'm like, this isn't happening.
- 1:01:41We're. Not, and that's the thing last
- 1:01:43the year before Chelsea paid off a couple of them.
- 1:01:46Allegedly. Wow.
- 1:01:47No, that's a thing, dude. Yeah, it doesn't matter.
- 1:01:49We. Live in the We live.
- 1:01:50In it's 2 country, it's like yeah.
- 1:01:53Yeah, if you're an American and you're doing some shit like
- 1:01:55that, make sure you have some flow on you, just in case.
- 1:01:58Yeah, it's always good to keep something in the.
- 1:02:00Basket for sure. It's just it's just what's going
- 1:02:02on, you know what I mean? Like, you know, sugar coating it
- 1:02:05like. Yeah, no, that exists
- 1:02:06everywhere. Like if you.
- 1:02:07Want to get out fun? Here good idea.
- 1:02:09If someone tells me I went to so into a country or whatever and
- 1:02:12like I have any money on me, I'm like, you're an idiot.
- 1:02:14Yeah, well, they don't need. Something on like they probably.
- 1:02:16Don't have body cams on them either in other countries
- 1:02:19because they're not known for shooting random.
- 1:02:20People, I don't even think that. Matters Lord of the.
- 1:02:22Flies don't even care if that happens.
- 1:02:24Yeah, yeah, literally it's the Lord of the Flies out there you
- 1:02:27just got. So you made it through though,
- 1:02:29yeah. Dude.
- 1:02:30All right, so we went through the only scumball thing that
- 1:02:34happened in that interaction. The none of this is scumball so
- 1:02:38far. No, no, no, or whatever you
- 1:02:39we're like, what do you call this?
- 1:02:41Scum ball. You mean you basically you want
- 1:02:42to go next year? So like, yeah, exactly.
- 1:02:44So he's signing up. Yeah, why don't we have?
- 1:02:47A guy in school, they're like, yeah, we're not going to take
- 1:02:49anything apart, blah, blah, blah.
- 1:02:51They did go through the trunk of the car and they opened up our
- 1:02:55buddy's bag, right? And when we took off again and
- 1:03:00he put his bag together, allegedly there was €100
- 1:03:04missing. Okay, I'm like, all right, That
- 1:03:07kind of choked me. A whole bean was missing.
- 1:03:10From a Beggy. So damn.
- 1:03:13So he was kind of bummed. We felt bad.
- 1:03:14I think we ended up buying him dinner or something like that.
- 1:03:17So it was really, everybody was cool.
- 1:03:19We ended up going through there. I went, I went around it.
- 1:03:23I'm getting, I'm getting beat up.
- 1:03:24It sounds like I'm gonna go there, we're gonna get into

- 1:06:04Northwest. Yeah, that straightaway yo Hurt
- 1:06:07Peden JC. Everyone was just humming into
- 1:06:12this corner. Even Yuri was going in.
- 1:06:15That's the first corner on my bad.
- 1:06:16I was backwards, yeah. But like yo heard impressed me
- 1:06:19like by this point. This is a wall right here.
- 1:06:21Yeah, that's a wall. So he was.
- 1:06:23Who was the dude that hit all the Dutch dudes?
- 1:06:26The Dutch dudes. Craziest dudes maybe driving on
- 1:06:29tour. I don't I forget that was it
- 1:06:31Matt? What was it dude?
- 1:06:32The the. They had funny last names, so.
- 1:06:34The the Cox. The Cox, the Cox, he was a
- 1:06:38Ripper. Yo, he was a Ripper.
- 1:06:40But his dad, his dad is like, I don't even know these.
- 1:06:44Are these guys from here or? They're they're they're.
- 1:06:46They're on the. Tour, they're over out there.
- 1:06:48We were the only Americans. There were some people like
- 1:06:50locals at each track. Yeah, if that's where you were
- 1:06:52like asking, do you come out and like join the events with us?
- 1:06:56But most of the guys were from England.
- 1:06:59No, all over, all over, all over.
- 1:07:01That's what I was saying. Like Irish to.
- 1:07:05Oh, at FK One we did run into Raz, who's AUS guy that comes
- 1:07:10out of Virginia but now is living over in Spain and he runs
- 1:07:13all the stuff. Have you ever heard of sumo
- 1:07:14speed and stuff like that? He's always.
- 1:07:15Oh yeah, sumo. Speed messed up with those guys,
- 1:07:17yeah, yeah. So but you ended up running into
- 1:07:19a bunch of people you. And then after that event, after
- 1:07:22that track, we went to Naparack and we ran into some other
- 1:07:24Spaniard like dudes over there that RIP as well too.
- 1:07:28We had a unique experience in Spain because we're rolling with
- 1:07:31Yuri, right? And what's what's really unique
- 1:07:33about Yuri and and he was such a keystone in this trip.
- 1:07:37He's a. Huge.
- 1:07:39He's such a huge. He's like, he's like second
- 1:07:41largest. Yeah, he was able to find these
- 1:07:43guys almost anything. I think half the trip, Yuri,
- 1:07:46Yuri was just like on his phone finding parts for people and he
- 1:07:49could find parts. He found the fucking.
- 1:07:51Possible stuff. A T25 gasket for his Sr. like in
- 1:07:55the middle of nowhere. Yeah, I was like, he could have
- 1:07:59just came, in fact. Yeah, but but out there, yeah.
- 1:08:02You know. What I mean, I need it tonight.
- 1:08:03Do they have or does Europe operate?
- 1:08:05I'm actually that's his dumb ass question.
- 1:08:08Of course they do because in Japan they don't have like you
- 1:08:10know how here we got like AutoZone, Advanced O rallies,
- 1:08:14whatever the fuck you have? They don't have those, but they
- 1:08:16have those in Europe, right? You have parts stores in Europe.
- 1:08:20We didn't see no, no. Nothing.
- 1:08:23I think Fiji said the. Same, but remember we're also
- 1:08:25back countrying like we're. That's even, yeah.
- 1:08:27Yeah, we got. We're in it, man.
- 1:08:29The. Best analogy I can give is like,
- 1:08:31there's snowboarding and then there's Backcountry riding, and
- 1:08:34this whole trip was Backcountry riding.
- 1:08:36Like, we go through the cities, but a lot of it is obviously
- 1:08:38traveling through like, yeah, you know, that went middle of
- 1:08:42nowhere. The night we stayed in France,
- 1:08:43like the next day when we left, like everybody in that little
- 1:08:45town was like, what the fuck? All these like drift cars were
- 1:08:48pulling out. And we're like in this little,
- 1:08:50those old ladies in that place that we stayed, that we're not
- 1:08:52happy that we were there. You know what I mean?
- 1:08:54Like they were. They're so dude, we wanted to
- 1:08:57tell they hated us. Dude, they were turning off.
- 1:09:00The lights on us, I'm like this bitch.
- 1:09:02We're like, yeah, we rented the whole place.
- 1:09:03Chill. Out they're like, Oh no, no,
- 1:09:05'cause you do we we and I'm like.
- 1:09:08It's like shut up. It's like out of their norm to,
- 1:09:11you know what I mean? So like we mean the we mean the
- 1:09:15best all the time. Like we're not bad people.
- 1:09:18It's just like for some reason, like when it's out of that norm,
- 1:09:21I feel like it always just brings like the first vibe is
- 1:09:25like, oh fuck this is bad. Yeah, we just all look like
- 1:09:28degenerate. Yeah, like straight.
- 1:09:29D Gen. Our cars are fucking.
- 1:09:30Loud. Yeah, definitely and.
- 1:09:33For the most. Part Yeah, I get it.
- 1:09:34We're real. Yeah.
- 1:09:36The only time we showed our fans was like the last stop, the last
- 1:09:40city that we went or the last town in Spain.
- 1:09:42Last last was an amazing. We'll we'll wrap that entire cuz
- 1:09:46that was that was a movie. But starting it out.
- 1:09:50We ended up going to this. We ended up going to this
- 1:09:52restaurant and like yo, they like serve this like raw food
- 1:09:56and shit. I.
- 1:09:57And like bro, I had to like. Want to think about?
- 1:09:59I had to come out of my clothes and just be like what the fuck
- 1:10:01bro like this is fucked up. What?
- 1:10:03Do you get him? I was like this.
- 1:10:04Is it like so? Like we're done with Oh, like on
- 1:10:06you're saying it was on purpose type.
- 1:10:08No, no, no. They just like, I think they
- 1:10:10just. They weren't first.
- 1:10:11Told us like we can't do this. We had too many people coming
- 1:10:16from the track and all that, so that's definitely the unfair
- 1:10:19part to say about them. But like, yeah.
- 1:10:21I'm like, dude, like but then they try like, Oh no, that's how
- 1:10:23you eat. I'm like, Nah, dude, especially
- 1:10:25dude I must. I know that my.
- 1:10:26Family go into that. I'll never forget taking a bite
- 1:10:29of this chicken ever again in my life.
- 1:10:31Raw instantly turn my. Like so you knew right away you
- 1:10:35were. Like I feel it right now.
- 1:10:36Like dude, it's horrible. Dude, from a texture standpoint,
- 1:10:39I know what you're talking about and that just is making me not
- 1:10:42feel great. And that's what.
- 1:10:44Country is this. Because now where are you?
- 1:10:46Yeah, Spain. Most places that was the only
- 1:10:49spot really that was like that. So we left there and it starts.
- 1:10:55We left there what starts. Killing inside the parking lot.
- 1:10:59Everyone's like coming in like J turning.
- 1:11:01This is the last night, right? This is the last night.
- 1:11:04Before, before you have to drive all the way back, or before you
- 1:11:06just. Before before me and Russo have
- 1:11:08to leave at an early at an early note to go back to.
- 1:11:13America FD. FD But we have to go to some, we
- 1:11:16have to go to an airport in Spain somewhere.
- 1:11:17That was like roughly two 2 1/2 hours all.
- 1:11:20Right. So you're not driving back?
- 1:11:21But the. We're driving back.
- 1:11:23But now we have to drive to the England or something.
- 1:11:25No listen, So on the tour it's really cool.
- 1:11:27Like at the end you all drive your cars onto the ferry and
- 1:11:31then like you're on the ferry for like 30 hours with all the
- 1:11:34homies you guys each have, everyone has rooms and stuff.
- 1:11:37You're just like they're having a party.
- 1:11:38Wait, last year we got, I did it last year on the way back I got
- 1:11:42tattooed like Monster paid for all these tattoos and stuff like
- 1:11:44that. And they have tattoo artists
- 1:11:46there. They're super cool.
- 1:11:47Tattooed me in there and then, but everyone's raging, drinking,
- 1:11:51like all this stuff, getting rowdy.
- 1:11:53People were like saying we got to calm down all this stuff,
- 1:11:56like, yeah. You take a ferry from Spain to
- 1:12:00England. England that's.
- 1:12:01Crazy England. Cool that's you don't so you
- 1:12:03don't have to drive so. If you're on the tour like that,
- 1:12:05it starts and ends there, you know?
- 1:12:07Yeah, yeah. So.
- 1:12:08We skipped that because we had to go back to that day.
- 1:12:10Yeah, it didn't make sense for us to do it.
- 1:12:11So we were like, yeah, we need to bow here and get back.
- 1:12:14So that night, because the and the problem is if the restaurant
- 1:12:18wouldn't have had that snafu, then the following the.
- 1:12:21Night before we ate at a kebab. Kebab place, right fire.
- 1:12:27So. They they go back to this kebab
- 1:12:29place, right? I, I already go back to to the
- 1:12:33house. I go back to the the hotel that
- 1:12:36we're. I had a whole another situation
- 1:12:37going. Yeah, he he was.
- 1:12:38We were separated at this point, so.
- 1:12:40He was Liam at this point. Do you guys you know who Liam
- 1:12:43is? I don't know the dude that does
- 1:12:45the wheelies in the cart. Duran.
- 1:12:47I guess not that. Maybe.
- 1:12:48Did I meet in? A car where he's like doing
- 1:12:50wheelies around turns that LZ world tour and stuff like that
- 1:12:53No, I probably have no idea dude, you guys got to see that's
- 1:12:56insane. But anyway, I feel.
- 1:12:57Like he was the guy who wheelie Bobby's golf cart.
- 1:13:00No, no, no, no, no. We're talking about a real car
- 1:13:02that he's driving. No, definitely not.
- 1:13:05It's I think it's a twin Busa Motors put together or something
- 1:13:08like that. What the fuck?
- 1:13:09Yeah, definitely. Mountain and actually built the
- 1:13:12whole thing. Some euro.
- 1:13:13This dude that was on the tour list, OK, but he's a wild cat.
- 1:13:18Everyone knows him to be wild, you know, But he, he was out
- 1:13:22there. What did he have?
- 1:13:23What was he driving? An E92.
- 1:13:26Oh, yeah, E 92 like super crazy, like race car, like a real race
- 1:13:31car. Al Drover.
- 1:13:32That thing was sick at that, Barack.
- 1:13:34But yeah, like at the halal spot, we're all like, let's now
- 1:13:37meet there and get something. But they were closing this whole
- 1:13:40thing. I had this Fiat now that Liam
- 1:13:43had gave me like a stop before this because like you said, like
- 1:13:48you said, like moving luggage around and gear, camera gear,
- 1:13:52it's like crazy. You know, we're on a road trip.
- 1:13:55Cars are breaking down. We have to leave some.
- 1:13:57Cars reliable. We had to leave some.
- 1:13:59Cars yeah dudes were leaving cars then coming back with parts
- 1:14:03figuring that out, but at FK one, which was the stop before
- 1:14:06the last right, he showed up with a Fiat and then it was
- 1:14:10understood like OK, this Fiat is what we're going to use to get
- 1:14:13back to the airport. Cool.
- 1:14:15So me and him check out in our mind, this is how we're getting
- 1:14:18back. Keep moving with our lives.
- 1:14:20That's that's our plan right now.
- 1:14:23We get to the kebab place I'm back at the hotel place doing
- 1:14:28whatever he's at the bar. Didn't you go to like a bar or
- 1:14:30something like that? Oh dude I got so sidetracked
- 1:14:33some at one point I had to just wait at a gas station.
- 1:14:36They I got out of the car and just waited at a gas station and
- 1:14:40it was me and my boy. Felt like from my team and we're
- 1:14:43just like sitting there waiting for this dude to come back and
- 1:14:45pick us up because he left a bag at the restaurant that we hate
- 1:14:48it all hated. And like, so he flew back, got
- 1:14:52it. And then like Cain picked us up
- 1:14:54and then he like kind of kidnapped us and like took us.
- 1:14:56He was like, hey, you got a drink of beer at this bar.
- 1:14:58Like he was a crazy dude. Liam's boy.
- 1:15:01Great. One of the craziest dudes I've
- 1:15:03ever met in my life. Yeah, every time I just look
- 1:15:05over at Reese or what kind of facial expression he gives off
- 1:15:08about that time, and then I get the whole vibe right there.
- 1:15:11Dude, he was crazy. So then I saw Liam in the group
- 1:15:15chat. I was like, I'm about to do a
- 1:15:17burnout in front of the halal shop.
- 1:15:19Like I was like, I I showed his boy.
- 1:15:21I was like, bro, we need to go to the halal shop.
- 1:15:23I don't know what's about to happen, but so we go there, we
- 1:15:26pull up, we get out and he's already in the car getting all
- 1:15:29rowdy and he's like ready. And he does this crazy
- 1:15:32hellacious burnout. It's like insane.
- 1:15:35The dudes in the kebab shop were like, they're like, Oh my God.
- 1:15:39Like, they're like, if the cops come, like, you're screwed.
- 1:15:44Yeah. Like, they're shot in the door.
- 1:15:46There's billowing smoke going in there, setting off alarms like
- 1:15:49all this crazy. They gave off like immigration
- 1:15:51bobs, dude, it was crazy. Fuck us up.
- 1:15:54We have a good setup going here and I'm like.
- 1:15:57And like they don't like we said, they don't play there like
- 1:15:59you're. British dude shows up, fucks it
- 1:16:03up. Yeah, it's a burnout, you know
- 1:16:04what I mean? But then all the cops, I came to
- 1:16:07the hotel, all this crazy stuff, dude, we got out of the Fiat and
- 1:16:11they were like, yo, we're going out.
- 1:16:13We're like what? We're like we need this car to
- 1:16:15go to airport at somewhere. So we get all our stuff out of
- 1:16:18it and Liam and his boy just take off in the Fiat now.
- 1:16:22So the car is already they'll. Be back, right?
- 1:16:26The car's already parked, the cops come and stuff like that,
- 1:16:29and I'm inside now. I'm like, I'm not dealing with
- 1:16:31any of this. I'm inside.
- 1:16:32I'm like whatever. Yeah, you're saying?
- 1:16:34Yeah, like we're good. We're dumping footage, We're
- 1:16:36doing stuff. We're like editing video and
- 1:16:38we're just looking at the cops out there, like looking.
- 1:16:40They can't. They couldn't really do anything
- 1:16:42because they don't. They didn't see.
- 1:16:43It Yeah, you have to catch you in the act.
- 1:16:45Yeah, and the dude's not even there.
- 1:16:48So while the cops are out there, Liam decides to do like, you
- 1:16:51know, like 90 fly by on the road pass.
- 1:16:56So like in the Fiat? So like, yeah.
- 1:16:58Yeah, yeah. So now there's a piece of the
- 1:16:59main road. This is like the parking lot
- 1:17:01we're chilling here. And then the.
- 1:17:07Cops are like what? Everybody does that slow closing
- 1:17:10of their eyes. We're like, Oh my God.
- 1:17:12They're chasing crazy. But then what happens after
- 1:17:14that? Are we like?
- 1:17:15Yeah, no, dude. So it's only hours now.
- 1:17:18We got to go to the airport. So, all right, so yeah, it's
- 1:17:21just hours now. We're like ship.

- 1:17:26chase and you need it in an for whatever.
- 1:17:28Reason we keep on vibing now see.
- 1:17:30What's happening here? We keep on vibing now, like
- 1:17:32whatever, it'll work out, you know?
- 1:17:34That's why I told him I'm like, dude, all right, well, Al, Al
- 1:17:37got us. Yeah, so and then it gets closer
- 1:17:41till like 2. AM to the time where you need
- 1:17:44to. Leave and like there's no fee
- 1:17:46on. It's still gone bro.
- 1:17:49We're too and Everett, No one's in a condition to be helping
- 1:17:53anyone to get us anywhere two hours away.

- 1:18:15There's camera, gear, bags, third person.
- 1:18:18Yeah, we were just going through the motion 'cause it felt like
- 1:18:21it was at least a little we. Had a try.
- 1:18:22We had a try, so let's. See if.
- 1:18:24We were about to be stranded and we needed to get the FD.

- 1:18:59was a certain stride, you know what I'm saying?
- 1:19:02I'm like freeze. So freeze, whatever they go in
- 1:19:05Reese is they get dropped off for all we know.
- 1:19:07For all we know, maybe they were just getting dropped off there.
- 1:19:09But I'm like that looks a little.
- 1:19:10Right, right. Yeah.
- 1:19:12So they go in, whatever, We got lucky.
- 1:19:15These two bras get dropped off, right?
- 1:19:17They're like, yo, I'm still like, wow, that's crazy.
- 1:19:20Russo's already on. He's like.

- 1:19:27blah. Like.
- 1:19:28You're talking to the two 2 girls.
- 1:19:30No, no, I fucked them. My bad, my bad.
- 1:19:36I was. I forgot we.
- 1:19:37Got made. I.
- 1:19:39Forgot about the main mission. Yeah, you're on a side quest.
- 1:19:43I was like, maybe, maybe you won't make it through the whole
- 1:19:45tour. I don't know.
- 1:19:46I'm gonna. Have lost over there.
- 1:19:48What happened to Carl? We left him there, Carl.
- 1:19:49Left him, Yeah, Carl might just get he lost.
- 1:19:51Now he's now he's Carlitos. You know he.
- 1:19:53Took the Fiat. He took the Fiat.
- 1:19:56Never to be seen the arrow. Just.
- 1:19:58What the fuck so. Like I talked to him, I
- 1:20:02explained to him the whole scenario and I think what was
- 1:20:04it, €300? Yeah, something like that.
- 1:20:06Something like 200 or €300 to do.
- 1:20:08This, it was kind of, it was kind of reasonable.
- 1:20:11It's kind of, it was a 2 hour trip so I don't know what the
- 1:20:14tolls plus everything, there's a lot of tolls.
- 1:20:16There's everything tolls are. So I'm like alright dude, like
- 1:20:18this is all. This is the best shot we got.
- 1:20:20And I'm like, you know what, fuck it, who cares?
- 1:20:22Let's just pay for it and let's just do it because we're all
- 1:20:24going to be able to sleep in the van and go to sleep and
- 1:20:27whatever. Like we'll figure, figure it out
- 1:20:28like we always do. Because in the grand scheme of
- 1:20:30things, you're just like, it's only 200 and.
- 1:20:32Three. And at least now you have a
- 1:20:34plan. Yeah, so now at least we have a
- 1:20:36dude, so. Like he was looking at me like
- 1:20:39finally in this all these moments, like holy shit.
- 1:20:42Like, what are we gonna do? I was like, I was like, we're
- 1:20:44good. You know the whole.
- 1:20:45Time. Like I'm like, you're fucking.
- 1:20:48You're a one friend for that because?

- 1:23:35Dude. And I was in the I.
- 1:23:37Was away, right? I'm in the passenger seat and I
- 1:23:40never felt like this in a very long time.
- 1:23:42Like, you know, like the cartoons with like the
- 1:23:44toothpicks. I felt like I had to do that.
- 1:23:47Then my eyelids, my eyelids were so heavy, I couldn't keep them
- 1:23:51open. I was trying so hard.
- 1:23:52You needed the fucking. Trying to be tried, I was trying
- 1:23:55to be. Like a good friend but like yo,
- 1:23:56I fall asleep in cars and stuff like that super easy.
- 1:23:59But like this was like another level.
- 1:24:01I was like, I'm not making it, dude.
- 1:24:03It was really rough. It was and you're I'm looking
- 1:24:06over. I'm like, dude, he he's just not
- 1:24:08making it. I look behind me.
- 1:24:09I'm like, dude, he was up for a little bit.
- 1:24:12He's the youngest one. I'm like, he might be looked
- 1:24:15over again. I.
- 1:24:16Was waking up. You know what?
- 1:24:22We were waking up. Yeah, I kept waking up.
- 1:24:24Ohh. Dude, I was like, I was like,
- 1:24:26dude. It's weaving.
- 1:24:27I felt the geez. I felt the geez from the weave.
- 1:24:29That's how hard it was. I was like, dude, no, you ain't.
- 1:24:32We're dying. We're dying.
- 1:24:34No, this dude was swerving. So I was like, oh.
- 1:24:37Come on. Have that go and like and like
- 1:24:40usually I sleep right through that, but like dude, these were
- 1:24:43some decent ones so you. Drove all the way there.
- 1:24:45Dude, again, I don't remember a lot of.
- 1:24:47It and we and we just parked the car got out no.
- 1:24:49No, no. So what's helped us is that I
- 1:24:51knew I had to get gas. So once I got gas and I walked
- 1:24:55around outside. Stretched I.
- 1:24:57Walked up. Oh hell yeah.
- 1:24:58So I was like, all right, cool. So that is a.
- 1:25:00And then we got lost in there a little bit because I'm like,
- 1:25:02where the fuck is this? And then everything was cool
- 1:25:04from there. We found the place, we found the
- 1:25:08airport, we dropped it off and then we went back.
- 1:25:10It was a long Was that the one where there was a a baby crime?
- 1:25:15Oh. Dude I feel like every flight.
- 1:25:17There used to be an airline just so.
- 1:25:18I've been dodging them. I've been.
- 1:25:20I've been. Have you, what's your, what's
- 1:25:22your stats? Because we're doing like 50
- 1:25:23flights a year here, so we're getting a lot of babies.
- 1:25:26My four or five flights that I take a year.
- 1:25:29Four or five, well, that's. I got none.
- 1:25:32I would hope, yeah, I would hope Your percentage is good.
- 1:25:35You're pretty. Good.
- 1:25:35I'm poor man. I can't be.
- 1:25:37It was planes like. That yeah.
- 1:25:38And yeah, just just to be clear, I know a lot of people it goes
- 1:25:41so sick. I mean, how much does it cost to
- 1:25:42do all that? We, we are both very lucky that
- 1:25:46a lot of what we do gets wrapped up into work and it gets yeah.
- 1:25:51Oh yeah, dude, that is. I don't want people to think
- 1:25:54there's like, how much is it? No, yeah, those fifty flights,
- 1:25:57that's the furthest from the truth.
- 1:25:59That's all a lot. Most of it's work.
- 1:26:01We're all we're working, doing stuff.
- 1:26:02It's it's working, understanding, saving up,
- 1:26:05understanding those 50. Flights that you mentioned you
- 1:26:07might be taking, those are 50 flights because you have to go
- 1:26:11somewhere to go do something else, you know what I mean?
- 1:26:14Yeah, yeah, like. When I was when I was doing the
- 1:26:17direction for Vaughn's video and I had people working under me
- 1:26:19there and like this whole thing going on in that era, I was
- 1:26:23doing like almost 70 some flights like which was in the
- 1:26:27same. Your miles are probably.
- 1:26:30Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was crazy.
- 1:26:31It was good. It was good.
- 1:26:32Oh my word. Now, still 5050 is really good,
- 1:26:36like 50 is still a lot, yeah. Yeah, I think, I think.
- 1:26:40And that's, that's all just like 992.
- 1:26:42We us doing stuff like all over, you know?
- 1:26:45Dude. I and I fly out all my my homies
- 1:26:48or, you know, my homies, my guys that work for me like Jeremy Z
- 1:26:52and Felts and our boy Ricky too. But yeah.
- 1:26:56Hell yeah. Damn.
- 1:26:56And. You said you were on tour too.
- 1:26:59Is that what I'm thinking it is? Yeah, so.
- 1:27:02We got you got to tell Carl about this shit.
- 1:27:05The bass tour, is that what? No, not that tour.
- 1:27:07Oh. No, no.
- 1:27:08The other two the the tour. This year I got asked in the
- 1:27:12beginning of the year and our initiative too at like 992 me
- 1:27:16and surround kind of were like, yo, we're not stepping away from
- 1:27:20Motorsports in any way, but we're like going back outside to
- 1:27:23like our roots again to like other stuff because we just did
- 1:27:27like a project not last year, the year before at the end of
- 1:27:31the year. So it's been about almost two
- 1:27:34years now. We did that campaign with Puma
- 1:27:38and A$AP Rocky. So then we were like, yeah, we
- 1:27:41need to just keep working outside of the industry again.
- 1:27:44And that was like a national campaign we went to when I went
- 1:27:46to Japan last year, it was running.
- 1:27:48So I saw like I went into a Puma store and I saw it was really
- 1:27:51cool. That's cool.
- 1:27:52So like all these really cool things and surrounds pushing a
- 1:27:55lot in that direction. I kind of like in like you push
- 1:27:58that direction. We need to do some more stuff
- 1:28:00outside. And this is one of those
- 1:28:03opportunities that came through my channel.
- 1:28:06But like one of my best friends, Kyle Hediger, he's like a tattoo
- 1:28:12artist and we moved out to LA together, all those stuff.
- 1:28:15But he's best friends with Post Malone.
- 1:28:18And this year he had that big ass stadium tour and Kyle and
- 1:28:25two of his artists, because he has a shop now that he opened up
- 1:28:28in LA and he lives out in LA in the house that I used to live
- 1:28:31in. And this is a kind of a crazier
- 1:28:33story too. But that house is like the Saron
- 1:28:36lived there. Zach Job from Doughnut lives
- 1:28:39there, but now he's big time. I don't know if you guys know
- 1:28:42those dudes, but that's all the same house that they all live
- 1:28:45in. And so for two months we went on
- 1:28:49tour with post because my boy was tattooing and doing a bunch
- 1:28:54of stuff. And it was a whole thing.
- 1:28:56Like we did the tailgate all this stuff and like raffled off
- 1:28:59stuff and, and you were. Shooting tattooed the.
- 1:29:01Crew. Yeah, I shot, you know, I got
- 1:29:06asked to shoot on the losers video.
- 1:29:10So I I just minor stuff, like just did some crowd stuff like
- 1:29:14thankfully that was cool that they asked to help out on that,
- 1:29:17but just little stuff on that. But it was cool.
- 1:29:19Yeah. But yeah, I made videos.
- 1:29:20I was satisfying like a bunch of tattoo content for for Black
- 1:29:25Claw, which is like this dude Grimes brand and he's like super
- 1:29:29famous tattoo artist. So and they do that Kyle brought
- 1:29:35on a tour also that tattoo is this dude Ganji coolest dude.
- 1:29:39Like I don't even know how to describe him.
- 1:29:42That dude is just like a true artist and at the end of the
- 1:29:46tour he did like a chess piece on me and stuff.
- 1:29:48But yeah, the tour was crazy overall.
- 1:29:50Like, I know that's like a very gloss over of all those things,
- 1:29:53but. Yeah, I know.
- 1:29:54It seemed crazy. And yeah, I forgot you were like
- 1:29:56living in Los Angeles or something.
- 1:29:57I was. Like, yeah, so when when I first
- 1:29:59moved out, like me and Kyle like moved at the same time and I
- 1:30:02left Snapchat, I was like, yo, I'm bouncing.
- 1:30:04This is why I like I'm moving to LA and at the time Doughnut, I,
- 1:30:13you know, I was friends with them.
- 1:30:14I shot stuff for them a long time ago at E Town for like Turk
- 1:30:17and like early on. And so I was like integrated
- 1:30:22with them. So I was able to just go there,
- 1:30:23work for Doughnut. I directed the show on there.
- 1:30:27Then I moved to Tony's show, Hot Rod Garage at Motor Trend.
- 1:30:32I worked there, did that shot on that show.
- 1:30:36So it was just like a cool environment to be in and all
- 1:30:38that stuff. Yeah.
- 1:30:41God damn. Dude, wild, right?
- 1:30:42But all I. Could all I could.
- 1:30:44Think about right now is like dude and and and but all.
- 1:30:47I had to take like 3 hours to plop you in New Jersey for a
- 1:30:51little. Bit like all that.
- 1:30:54Time when I first when I first got there, I already had done a
- 1:30:59trip there when I worked at Snapchat me, my boy Travis and
- 1:31:02Kyle, we flew out and we stayed with post.
- 1:31:05This was like right after white Iverson dropped.
- 1:31:07We stayed there and we like slept at his house for like a
- 1:31:13couple weeks, like 2-3 weeks. Then when we came back, Kyle
- 1:31:19just wound up living there cuz that was the deal with like him.
- 1:31:21Post they're like super friendly.
- 1:31:22He's he's the sweetest dude, honestly.
- 1:31:25Yeah, he comes off that way. I was going to ask you.
- 1:31:27Dude, the white Iverson Post Malone era.
- 1:31:29Like, I was in college when that was and that was a really good
- 1:31:34time to be alive. Wow, the sun was so warm back
- 1:31:38then. Like I'm telling you like.
- 1:31:41The sun was warm back then. Yeah, dude, there's there was it
- 1:31:44was a good error. Dude, it was a good time if you
- 1:31:46go. Back to if you go back to the
- 1:31:47first interview I did with you guys, I talked about how that
- 1:31:50Thanksgiving. Oh yeah, yeah, yes.
- 1:31:54The reason I went out of LA was because of Russo.
- 1:31:58Yeah. And then Russo casually hits me
- 1:32:00up and it's like, yo, you should come over Austin's house for
- 1:32:02Thanksgiving. I'm on the low.
- 1:32:03I don't, you know, I'm like. Who the fuck is Austin?
- 1:32:05And then Post opens up the door. Happy Thanksgiving.
- 1:32:09I'm like, what's up dude? And the Russo's like you.
- 1:32:13Know I never really. Talk about it like I don't
- 1:32:16really tell a lot of people. It's like not a bragging thing
- 1:32:18for me, but like he's a friend dude.
- 1:32:20Like so like, I don't, I don't know.
- 1:32:22It's just I never. Really tell a lot of.
- 1:32:24I just thought it was really cool.
- 1:32:25LA was very LA. For me, no, no.

- 1:32:32Yeah, well, you gotta. Kind of you.
- 1:32:34Gotta. Kind of he.
- 1:32:35Gotta he knew I would react somewhere that way and not like.
- 1:32:38You gotta keep it on the low and also like, bro, you gotta
- 1:32:41protect homie. So but like, you know, Reese is
- 1:32:44that guy. So yeah, yeah, you know what I
- 1:32:46mean? Like it's a no brainer that
- 1:32:47yeah, you know, Reese, be careful because I've seen the
- 1:32:50wide range of people that just fold.
- 1:32:53What do you mean? Like in in front of someone like
- 1:32:55that? Oh, and they get.
- 1:32:56Weird with that. I've seen people switch like
- 1:32:58that. It's crazy, yeah.
- 1:33:00He would open the door. I would have been like, you look
- 1:33:02like someone. That would have been me.
- 1:33:05I would have been. Like a 50 year old man.
- 1:33:06Like, yeah, man, I do. Yeah, I do look like.

- 1:33:15with his brother. His brother.
- 1:33:18Was really quiet and I didn't know that's who it was.
- 1:33:20After the tour, I went, when I went over, I shot in Ireland
- 1:33:24like this music video, like me and Sarah went and shot a music
- 1:33:27video for an artist, this DJ called Eden.
- 1:33:29He's a singer, DJ, super cool. But I went and I was over there
- 1:33:35for a while because I had a couple events to shoot for 992
- 1:33:39over there. And in between that, I went to
- 1:33:41Barcelona with my boy Leto. And I was chilling with him and
- 1:33:44it was around his birthday and my birthday was coming up and I
- 1:33:48was like, yo, you want to go to Prague?
- 1:33:50And he was like, yeah, let's go. I was like, just for a day.
- 1:33:53And I didn't really tell him. I was like, let's go, let's go.
- 1:33:56So we went there. Post was on his Euro tour and he
- 1:33:59was in Prague. So we went, we went backstage
- 1:34:02and like my boy Lido got to meet him, hang out and like and.
- 1:34:05He had no idea this was happening.
- 1:34:06No, no, he was just like he dude, he couldn't believe it and
- 1:34:10he hasn't been home for a bit. So like the concert was very
- 1:34:12like emotional for him. It was the concert was sick.
- 1:34:16Like honestly, like it wowed me because.
- 1:34:20I remember seeing this. Post like, yeah, this is a very
- 1:34:23real moment for me, like not to have all the context for
- 1:34:26everyone, but like, you know, like I said, like seeing him
- 1:34:29develop from all of that. And I've been on some of the
- 1:34:32other tours, but like, not just at stops, like, I didn't go on
- 1:34:36tour or anything, but like, seeing him develop to like, you
- 1:34:41know, all these different pop star to superstar to now I'm
- 1:34:46like, dude's a legend. Like, I'm looking at the stage.
- 1:34:49The first concert that I watched on that tour.

- 1:35:01moment in my life. And be a part of it.
- 1:35:03Yeah, I was like, this is so cool.
- 1:35:04Like, and I'm like what? A lot of times at the shows I
- 1:35:08would just turn around and watch the crowd and stuff and it was
- 1:35:10just so cool, man. Like it the emotions in the
- 1:35:13crowd and stuff like. I felt that way through your

- 1:36:58Japan. So then a music.
- 1:36:59I got to do this. I'm like, no.
- 1:37:01And it is because I could have made, I could have just been
- 1:37:04good and just said, OK, I can focus.
- 1:37:06On I just knew your. School for November, but like it
- 1:37:10was. I just knew from my first time I
- 1:37:13was like. It.
- 1:37:14Blew my mind. I was like, you have to go you.
- 1:37:16Have to go please and Chelsea's been trying to give me a.
- 1:37:18Go. It was so cool to watch in the
- 1:37:19whole time. Chelsea, that's like, that's
- 1:37:21like the if you're going to go to experience something, I feel
- 1:37:24like then that would have been a fantastic.
- 1:37:26Yeah, it looked like a good. I was hyped to see him
- 1:37:28experience it. Like tell him how you felt,
- 1:37:30dude. Like, 'cause that I watching
- 1:37:32you, I was like, yes, 'cause I got the feeling.
- 1:37:34It was great. It was, it's, it's everything
- 1:37:36you thought it would be and it just, it just all compiles
- 1:37:40together and it just, it flows and it's like I'm like, it was,
- 1:37:42it was constant con for me, you know?
- 1:37:45But you but you knew the narrative of what to.
- 1:37:48Expect yeah, that's. Which is so crazy.
- 1:37:50Because I never thought about it like that.
- 1:37:51Yeah, I knew what to expect. I knew all that.
- 1:37:53And then you got The Sims and then driving and then like the
- 1:37:56food. It's everything so well
- 1:37:57documented and. I like dude, I felt smaller to
- 1:38:00you. Everything felt small,
- 1:38:01obviously. Yeah, everything felt so much
- 1:38:03smaller and everything. Track was and.
- 1:38:04Track wise, yeah dude, like. The tracks are really.
- 1:38:07Small bro when I got on Toge. Yeah, oh, super small.
- 1:38:10When I got on Toge, I was like, I, I did one lap and I was like,
- 1:38:15I am going to destroy you because I'm like 100% like all I
- 1:38:22could think about is like half of my friends back home could
- 1:38:24murder this track right now, like.
- 1:38:26I was. So I was so happy because I was
- 1:38:30like, damn, you got like, the world may not know, but like a
- 1:38:35lot of us are prepared to come and like, just murder these
- 1:38:40places. Like Jimmy Oaks gave me his car
- 1:38:43and he was like, oh, you know, just two second gear, you know,
- 1:38:45maybe. Not his first lap at EBIS.
- 1:38:48Yeah, basically he was like, here we just take my car, I take
- 1:38:50out he. Did you?
- 1:38:51Did you did one lap initially? No in at Munami Chiba.
- 1:38:57Oh yeah, the first lap in Japan was in Chelsea's car.
- 1:39:00That I did. The one Jay-Z wagon that he he
- 1:39:03had this time. That was that was right.
- 1:39:05But then I took Oaks and I did North Course.
- 1:39:07So cool. I did one lap and then I was
- 1:39:10like as soon as I did the first lap I'm like I'm doing third.
- 1:39:14There's no not doing 3rd and it's.
- 1:39:16So long, I feel like there's no way you can't not use third.
- 1:39:20Well, 'cause you're not under, you're, you're not thinking
- 1:39:22like, you know, the momentum scrub, how's this car going to
- 1:39:25feel like? How fast are you actually going?
- 1:39:27Like you can play it on the SIM, but until you jump in it and do
- 1:39:31it. But what I was happy is that
- 1:39:32after all the driving I've ever done, I landed in a Visu and I
- 1:39:36got in a car and I was like 100% comfortable.
- 1:39:38I was like third let's go and then boom, it was just go go go.
- 1:39:42I had more issues with the right hand drive stuff.
- 1:39:46That's where I. That's where I was having issues
- 1:39:48with. It was easy to do it with the
- 1:39:50Toyota, the G35 that Robbie brought me.
- 1:39:54Robbie, when he brought that, that's the one I had issues with
- 1:39:58'cause you had to be like really spot on.
- 1:40:00Robbie Nishida, obviously. Robbie shows up.
- 1:40:02Yeah, Robbie. Judges from FD.
- 1:40:03Yeah, he. Shows up.
- 1:40:05What do you mean it was spot on like you need to like guide it
- 1:40:08perfect. 'Cause there's not, there's less
- 1:40:10power in the G35. Than the JDF so.
- 1:40:12Like there's, there's a little bit more margin for fixing if
- 1:40:15you fuck up, you know what I mean, 'cause you can power
- 1:40:17through it. Robbie shows up with the G35 and
- 1:40:21he's like, alright, cool. He puts together and everything
- 1:40:24and I'm like, dude, take it out, dude.
- 1:40:26Like break it in. It's your car, you know what I
- 1:40:27mean? Like I was so happy he's letting
- 1:40:29me drive it but like take it out.
- 1:40:32This is the first day I met Sir on Saturday.
- 1:40:35And I'm like, alright, so I'll get in the car and I'm thinking
- 1:40:37like, whatever, it's going to be like someone's driving and
- 1:40:40everything. Nah, Nah.
- 1:40:43Robbie Nasheeda is every bit of the Bushido Blade.
- 1:40:48Like he was keeping up with everyone, with AI, couldn't keep
- 1:40:52up with people the way he was. But I was, I know people were
- 1:40:54going to be like, well, he grew up driving that track or
- 1:40:56whatever. I don't care.
- 1:40:57Dude, yeah, and he's pro. Game bro he.
- 1:41:01Blew my. Mind, yeah.
- 1:41:02He put on a new pair of Jordans on and showed me the deal on the
- 1:41:04foot. Bro for real, I went one time
- 1:41:08with him and he blew the tires off and he still was driving
- 1:41:11with people and I was like, you're gaining.
- 1:41:14I, I'm like, I, I was just wild, to be honest.
- 1:41:17Like, and, and I feel like that's kind of rare for me.
- 1:41:19I'm, I'm always in a car with Grant, all these dudes.
- 1:41:22I'm wild from him too. But like, you know, like to see
- 1:41:25someone like that in a car like that, it's just very basic.
- 1:41:29And then just, I was like, I, I couldn't believe what he could
- 1:41:32do. I, I dude, first we pull up.
- 1:41:35Oh, like, oh, Robbie's here. And the first track I see him
- 1:41:38ripping Minami, I pull up with him on Minami, just third gear
- 1:41:45RIP in the backyard. Whoa.
- 1:41:50And he gets out the car like, what's up, dude?
- 1:41:51And I'm like, yeah, nobody could talk shit on you, dude.
- 1:41:55I don't care on anybody. He's like, dude, you drive the
- 1:41:57same way back in the United. I'm like shut the fuck up dude,
- 1:42:00I'm in the car. Just wow bro.
- 1:42:02And this is a G35A. G35 with like some bolt on GK
- 1:42:06tech stuff and has like. And it's sick, 'cause you're on
- 1:42:09the left, so you're just. Yeah, you.
- 1:42:10Have your point of view but it's like you're strap you can't do
- 1:42:14anything. The cars, whatever, but it's
- 1:42:16like he knows the track so well that if he fucks up like he can
- 1:42:21just he'll like transition a little bit earlier and and knows
- 1:42:24exactly when to go, when not to go.
- 1:42:27So everyone else that had like 70 more horsepower than him, it
- 1:42:30didn't matter because he was out timing everyone.
- 1:42:33Horsepower had nothing to do with it at that point.
- 1:42:35He was out transitioning everyone because he's done this
- 1:42:37a million times, you know what I mean?
- 1:42:39So like that, what was so cool to see?
- 1:42:41And then obviously, oh. He.
- 1:42:43He's one of those dudes too that like that I've met in the past
- 1:42:46couple years that has been like one of those stand out pillar
- 1:42:49dudes that are just like, I'm like, dude, you're so cool.
- 1:42:51I love it. That's a role.
- 1:42:52Model. You're a man.
- 1:42:53I like. Just a role model.
- 1:42:55Just like, yeah, I like how he operates.
- 1:42:57Like he's just a really cool dude.
- 1:42:59Man, and as a judge, he's just like it.
- 1:43:01It's cool that it was cool 'cause I'm looking at him and
- 1:43:03I'm having that moment where I'm like, this dude fucking judges
- 1:43:06with me. You have real combos with him.
- 1:43:08Yeah, I saw him. And like, he, he gets, he, he
- 1:43:12gets drifting. Like you can talk to him and
- 1:43:15he's like, oh, did you feel? And now you're in the car with
- 1:43:17him and he's like, oh, did you feel how the car unloaded here?
- 1:43:19And I'm like, dude, this dude's fucking awesome like this.
- 1:43:22I'm eating it up, you know what I mean?
- 1:43:24And then he takes me to go meet Kumukoa.
- 1:43:27This is crazy. Team.
- 1:43:28Team Orange. The talk.
- 1:43:29Terrific. Kuma Kubo the the which car is
- 1:43:32his? The Subaru one, no.
- 1:43:34I don't know. I'm a team.
- 1:43:35Orange, all of the team Orange, they're all of his.
- 1:43:37Orange No. Well, he had No, he had the Evo.
- 1:43:40Oh, OK. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I seen that.
- 1:43:43They still have the Evo do they? Still have the evo that I
- 1:43:46believe track or something like in the back or something.
- 1:43:48So I got to talk to him and it was really cool to talk to that
- 1:43:51dude because he wants more of the style.
- 1:43:58He's like, why is it that to be so serious?
- 1:44:00Fuck. Yeah, yeah, it should be more of
- 1:44:01the show. Like, so his whole perspective
- 1:44:04on it was like way different than you would have thought.
- 1:44:06And he thought the same thing with me when I started talking
- 1:44:08about drifting on what I like and this and that and kind of
- 1:44:11depicted like, you know, a formula drift is like the 9:00
- 1:44:13to 5:00, but like the cool shit we do is like after hours when
- 1:44:16we go do whatever. That's just the way this the
- 1:44:18structure works, you know? So he gets that, too.
- 1:44:20And it was just cool to just talk drifting back and forth.
- 1:44:23And then like the coolest part was like, oh, we got to set
- 1:44:27something up, you know, the next time you come, like, we'll get
- 1:44:30all the dudes together and I'm like, well who?
- 1:44:31And he's like, Oh yeah, like we'll see if we can get Kazama
- 1:44:34and this and that. Yeah.
- 1:44:34So I'm. Like and last year I met Kazama
- 1:44:37at Nikko and hung out and then like shot his event like it was
- 1:44:41crazy. Damn man.
- 1:44:42So like for me personally, especially coming from our
- 1:44:44upbringing, to be able to get into any tandem train where
- 1:44:49you're like rubbing doors where those dudes like that's, that's,
- 1:44:51that's definitely something off the.
- 1:44:53Dude, everyone's Japan trips are just fucking.
- 1:44:55Amazing. Guys every time.
- 1:44:56And Jimmy and Grant are like the kind of the kings over there
- 1:44:59they like. They go so much, dude.

- 1:48:30I mean, this is probably possible.
- 1:48:31Oh yeah, there you go. Oh my God.
- 1:48:41It looks like it's just a bumper.
- 1:48:42Yeah, yeah. Bonked off that thing dude.
- 1:48:46That's. Crazy.
- 1:48:46I think I responded to that and I was like bro.
- 1:48:49There's. No way.
- 1:48:50Yeah, he's one of my favorites. I bet he was in there fucking.
- 1:48:53Cracking. He was dude.
- 1:48:55We're done. Hop last year bought that E46
- 1:48:58and that's what he brought there to.
- 1:49:00OK, just like super. Stocky kind I missed the farm
- 1:49:02clan I just. Remember seeing the videos and I
- 1:49:04was like this shit is. Yeah, I shot.
- 1:49:06I shot like a whole vlog for Chelsea and stuff there and it
- 1:49:08was sick. It was a good time.
- 1:49:09Which is very. Violent which is.
- 1:49:11What the intro? I had Chelsea throw this giant
- 1:49:14like block of snow into Grant's car as he was drifting by.
- 1:49:18Like it was like I. Think I saw that.
- 1:49:21Yeah, nothing would anger me more if my car was dry inside
- 1:49:25and then you just threw but like excess of water, but like.
- 1:49:29That. Car's the rot.
- 1:49:30What's the rot? E36 or something?
- 1:49:32He called it like, I mean, it's a piece of shit.
- 1:49:34Fuck dude, his car. Was so.
- 1:49:35Fast. His car was so fast Chelsea got
- 1:49:38in it and he was like why is this car so fast?
- 1:49:41Like dude, Grant's car that weekend on the ice was the
- 1:49:44fastest car. Way.
- 1:49:46More. Studded tires and shit like.
- 1:49:47Yeah, yeah, yeah. You get started front and back.
- 1:49:49Front. There's the move, bro.
- 1:49:50It's happening. Grants were longer.
- 1:49:52You can't stop us from shouting. We'll figure it.
- 1:49:54Out take the ISA. My shit, yeah, I.
- 1:49:59Was like. Nobody we've been we've been
- 1:50:02eyeing them up. Yeah, that's pretty bad.
- 1:50:06That's alright, it have. A2J car so I'm like God I don't
- 1:50:08really want. What Car do you have?
- 1:50:10I have a couple. I have 4 right now, right?
- 1:50:12Four. Yeah.
- 1:50:13I don't know why I asked him, but yeah.
- 1:50:16He's. With me like every day.
- 1:50:17Dude. He's at my house like every day
- 1:50:19he was. Such a humble guy that's saying
- 1:50:21that you have 4 cars. I was almost like fuck.
- 1:50:24You still got the beamer. So yeah, so I have the E36M3,
- 1:50:28put the car on and then I have an SL500 that's from Motor Trend
- 1:50:32that I bought. That was the one that Tony Bill
- 1:50:35and put a 2JZ in it on the show. Oh, that's.
- 1:50:37Cool. What the fuck?
- 1:50:39Oh yeah, that's. Then when I started doing this
- 1:50:42show over here, we wound up it had like a 4L60 or 4L80 trans.
- 1:50:48It was kind of boring at that point, but it made like 500 and
- 1:50:52some horsepower or something on the dyno and then over here we
- 1:50:56swapped it to CDO 9. So now it's like a six setup.
- 1:51:01I think it makes like 420 ish horsepower right now.
- 1:51:05But that's the other car. That's where I'm like, yeah, the
- 1:51:08two Jack could put it in something else, but I don't
- 1:51:10know. I have like coil overs for it.
- 1:51:13I have wheels for it. I just haven't messed with it
- 1:51:15yet. Yeah, I used to spend like a
- 1:51:16back burner project, but I think it's cool because of the history
- 1:51:20of like being on Motor Trend or whatever.

- 1:53:22I was travelling out to Tony, which is about like 5051 minutes
- 1:53:26away from where I live to shoot his show back here in Philly.
- 1:53:31And it was far. So I was like, damn, I need to
- 1:53:33get a car. And it's like kind of fuel
- 1:53:35efficient. And I only had the E36, the SL
- 1:53:37and I have an ambulance. Wait, what?
- 1:53:40So but so I was like, yo, I need some that's like fuel efficient.
- 1:53:44I need some fuel vision. So this thing gets like 45 miles
- 1:53:47of a gallon. Damn.
- 1:53:49Yeah, but you're pinned everywhere.
- 1:53:51But I'm pinned. Yeah, like really?
- 1:53:53But it's still like 30 something 30.
- 1:53:57No, no, it's like 5K. It's 5K on the Turnpike.
- 1:54:00Well, worries about. Yeah, I tell.
- 1:54:02People it is like fast it's quick the.
- 1:54:03Turnpike. You'll catch me on a golf
- 1:54:06course. You know where the cart, the
- 1:54:07carts are. I'll RIP you up so.
- 1:54:10The problem is is at like 7:00 or something every we're all
- 1:54:13doing 85. Together, yeah, we're doing, I'm
- 1:54:17doing like 7. That in the mix, Oh my God, I'd
- 1:54:20be so scared. Like that truck comes and you
- 1:54:22get that. I mean dude, it's like it's in
- 1:54:24gang. Like woof.
- 1:54:26It's in can there's. Nothing like there's Yeah, I.
- 1:54:29Can just be on a motorcycle. But yeah.
- 1:54:31It's not even. A leader?
- 1:54:32No, no, no. It's not even one liter, no.
- 1:54:34No. How much power does that thing
- 1:54:35make? 700CC's or.
- 1:54:38Something I don't know the dude to do that sold it to me like he
- 1:54:42imported or whatever he was like here's a you can turn up the
- 1:54:46boost if you want and I was like Nah, I'm not even putting that
- 1:54:48on well, I'm messing with this thing it's crazy I.
- 1:54:51Would crank. I just went, I just went through
- 1:54:53and like replaced the alternator as a huge deal.
- 1:54:55Yeah, I'm sure it was. I literally that's I kind of
- 1:55:00want to sell that car, but I literally love it.
- 1:55:02So it's like really hard. I'm like, it's just.
- 1:55:04I hand in the ass when you have to fix it.
- 1:55:05Yeah, but now we know a lot of people in Japan, like Robbie's
- 1:55:08helping me out. Yeah, Raz.
- 1:55:10Like helps out. Like there's a couple other, you
- 1:55:13know, there's enough now to make it work.
- 1:55:16And going there once a year, I'm like, I could throw some stuff
- 1:55:18in my bag if I need to, but. That's the only bad thing about
- 1:55:21going to Japan is like now it's like, well, we got to come back
- 1:55:24next year. In my in my mind, I'm like,
- 1:55:27alright, so like we got to start budgeting for this now.
- 1:55:30Yeah. Because like you just.
- 1:55:32Yeah, you know, Yeah. Well, you're sucked in now.
- 1:55:34That's why I told you I was like, that's it.
- 1:55:35You're. Yeah.
- 1:55:36But dude, how cheap was? Japan Like how cheap was it?
- 1:55:39Like you kept saying, I'm going to ruin him.
- 1:55:42Well, because I know how it goes.
- 1:55:44He's like, that's it. You know, I know how it goes
- 1:55:47and. One we're going every year, one
- 1:55:49hit one. Hit of that.
- 1:55:51Pipe. That's, that's how, yeah, that's
- 1:55:53how it went. And it's, I mean, obviously I
- 1:55:55tell him I, I, I joke around about a lot, but it's I got
- 1:55:59really lucky. And I think he did as well too,
- 1:56:02because his second time around me, this being my first, I mean,
- 1:56:06I didn't know. I didn't know Grant and Jim were
- 1:56:08going to be there in that capacity.
- 1:56:09We were going to be in that little group.
- 1:56:11I knew Chelsea was going to be there.
- 1:56:13I didn't know Marco, which turned out to be a blast that
- 1:56:15Marco was there. You know what I mean?
- 1:56:16Like, like, you know, like it's just, it's just cool to see
- 1:56:21that. Dude, there's a lot of us over
- 1:56:22there now. Like when you went, it was just
- 1:56:24people. Were just Josh was there, Josh
- 1:56:27was there ripping and stuff like that.
- 1:56:29Roll yeah. Yeah.
- 1:56:31He was there at the same time. And honestly, having Mark Who
- 1:56:33there taking the photos really made it so I don't know.
- 1:56:36It's just you had so many people that had so many different
- 1:56:39perspectives that that's what was called about to the Japan
- 1:56:42trip and. You got to watch Chelsea's
- 1:56:44vlogs, dude. Yeah.
- 1:56:45Chelsea's vlog definitely unravels that.
- 1:56:48And it's it's really just being able to do with your friends.
- 1:56:50Like when people are like, well, what's the goal?
- 1:56:51Like I don't, I don't even know anymore, dude.
- 1:56:53Like how do I replicate? Going there again, How do I
- 1:56:55replicate? You don't.
- 1:56:57Our first night, Our first night we get off the plane, you know
- 1:57:00we're going and doing all this stuff.
- 1:57:01What's the first night if we do? We literally go to the toe.
- 1:57:04We got in the toe game. Like hardcore, like obviously a
- 1:57:07lot of stuff we don't show out of respect, you know, we really.
- 1:57:10It's in the 1st. We all know the deal, we all
- 1:57:12know where we're going. Yeah, everybody knows what's
- 1:57:14going on. And it's cool and it's funny,
- 1:57:16dude, because we're down there and one dude pulls up next to
- 1:57:18me. And we're trying to meet up with
- 1:57:20Milky we're. Trying to meet with Milky and
- 1:57:23one dude comes up next to me and he's like, aren't you a judge?
- 1:57:27I'm like, yeah, you can. See in the video they're
- 1:57:29standing next to like where the cars are like flipping around.
- 1:57:32I'm like, yeah, yeah, we don't talk about.
- 1:57:33That it was so it was so cool. Like him and Chelsea just stand
- 1:57:36in there like chatting the whole time.
- 1:57:37Like that's funny. It's aren't you?
- 1:57:40I'm like the. Footage is so sick.
- 1:57:43Like I saw it and I was, I would, I would be watching
- 1:57:46Reese's stories and I'm like, fuck yeah, man.
- 1:57:49He's this. Is my Reese's.
- 1:57:50Cool man, He's in it. He's in it right now.
- 1:57:53We're so lucky to have like those cool, like those
- 1:57:56experiences everywhere we go. Like we have these like 1
- 1:57:59percenter experiences. Like I always tell the people
- 1:58:02that, oh. We're so blessed, dude.
- 1:58:04Oh yeah, I want to just know somebody that shows us something
- 1:58:07that like and. You get to experience it now
- 1:58:09like that's like such a beautiful thing.
- 1:58:12It's. Really how all of our trips go,
- 1:58:14whether it's whether it's when we were in.
- 1:58:16Saudi the one time like. Saudi, Dubai, Brazil, whatever
- 1:58:20it is, it's like it's what if you are is if you have a good
- 1:58:23network and you really have a genuine like outlook on what
- 1:58:28you're trying to accomplish in this sport.
- 1:58:30Like it definitely it spiders out and it and it and it does
- 1:58:33work out. Like Rooster says he's like,
- 1:58:34dude, it'll work out. And it's like, I'll say it
- 1:58:37sometimes he'll say it Chelsea, all of us say it sometimes
- 1:58:40because you're going to go through your ups and downs with
- 1:58:41it. But if you just if you just
- 1:58:43consistently stick with it because it's not a race, it's
- 1:58:47really just a marathon. You just how long can you stay
- 1:58:49in this? You know what I mean?
- 1:58:51And it works out like now I look back and I'm like you would have
- 1:58:53told me when I was 18 years old, I was going to travel the world
- 1:58:56to drift. And be a foot.
- 1:58:58Did you think that you were going to be a Formula Drift
- 1:59:00judge one day? I turn on the.
- 1:59:03I turn. I almost cried.
- 1:59:05Dude, I. Turn on that D to watch it and
- 1:59:07and Reese is explaining we're going to go to formula drift
- 1:59:09judge Reese Baron for an opinion and then I'm like.
- 1:59:11Honestly the second year has been amazing bro.
- 1:59:14So you could, you could understand this the same as me
- 1:59:16watching his journey for the last 10 years is amazing, dude.
- 1:59:22Because I remember meeting you and talking to you and it was
- 1:59:25just like, you know, you were real chill.
- 1:59:26You're just like one of the guys hanging out in this.
- 1:59:28But you could tell that he wanted to do something in this
- 1:59:32forever. And like you really gave me that
- 1:59:35vibe, but I didn't really know you that well.
- 1:59:37So I was like, I don't know what's going to happen like
- 1:59:38this. And then you did the tour, the
- 1:59:40bash, tour that, and then, OK, all right, it's like gaining
- 1:59:43momentum. Then you're teaching drifting.
- 1:59:44And I was like, damn, this is getting crazy.
- 1:59:46And then boom, you're a fucking judge.
- 1:59:48I'm like, what is going on? Judging cracked me up dude.
- 1:59:51We're. Always like in the back trying
- 1:59:53to build and yeah, dude, yeah. Like me getting to see his like
- 1:59:56success like that, like bro, it's crazy.
- 1:59:58You gotta be around friends that are constantly just ambitious.
- 2:00:01So cool. Yeah.
- 2:00:02Like it's just a constant, like circling of like just just.
- 2:00:06But when she's. Like she's going and going.
- 2:00:08When people say like, oh, it must be nice, just something
- 2:00:10like that. Fuck you.
- 2:00:11You just grind you. Just don't get it.
- 2:00:13There's four times. Yeah, we've been grinding the
- 2:00:16whole time. 'Cause like, I don't know, I
- 2:00:17just think of a situations like yours where I watch the whole
- 2:00:20thing happen and I'm like, no, he, he did everything you're
- 2:00:23supposed to do. Like, and, and it worked.
- 2:00:25Like you were very passionate about everything and like it.
- 2:00:28It paid off. Yeah, You know, I mean, that's
- 2:00:30why I tell people you just got to you guys just have to keep on
- 2:00:34shredding water. And you have to know that when
- 2:00:38when you plateau a little bit, the only way you get to go
- 2:00:42higher is by lifting one of your boys and then waiting until you
- 2:00:47get lifted to go. And like, that is such a thing
- 2:00:49that people don't understand sometimes.
- 2:00:52And like, I think some of us do get it here.
- 2:00:54It's such a normality for for me and some of my friends.
- 2:00:57But when I see it not pan out that way, I'm like, dude, you
- 2:01:00could go so much further. But like, you need help and you
- 2:01:02have to know when to ask for it and be OK with it.
- 2:01:05And you need to know when to give the Aleut when it's
- 2:01:08appropriate. You know what I mean?
- 2:01:10Like, money's a thing. Yeah.
- 2:01:12But like a proper networking alley, you.
- 2:01:14Yeah. You can't put a price on that.
- 2:01:16I mean, even here in Russo's story too, it's like the same.
- 2:01:18The only thing I'm thinking about with your story, the whole
- 2:01:20time, I'm like, networking is the only thing that matters.
- 2:01:23That's all I'm thinking. Yeah, yeah, like you just.
- 2:01:25You go from one person to another person.
- 2:01:27Yeah, not just media stuff that I'm doing, but like bringing her
- 2:01:30to the UK, yeah, stuff and Chelsea and all this and it's
- 2:01:33like all these like, you know, yeah, no one sees the stuff kind
- 2:01:37of behind closed doors just. Like you'll do one event, but
- 2:01:40then there'll be someone there that sees you doing that event
- 2:01:42and then they see what you can produce and then they tell
- 2:01:44someone else and then that guy knows this guy.
- 2:01:45And then before you know it, you're at fucking Post Malone's
- 2:01:47house. You're like what the fuck
- 2:01:48happened like. That's Reece.
- 2:01:50Like that's Reece pulling up. What the fuck is going?
- 2:01:52On Did this fucking happen like. But this shit?
- 2:01:55Is these are real stories. This is real life.
- 2:01:58Like it's really. Crazy like we've lived 1000
- 2:02:00lives because like we've there's so many crazy stories like this,
- 2:02:03honestly. Like, and you need people to
- 2:02:04push. I mean, I remember the, I think
- 2:02:07the biggest push leaving Philadelphia to go do something
- 2:02:10somewhere else that was Chelsea. He's like, dude, fuck this, we
- 2:02:12got to go somewhere 'cause he was already coming from Florida
- 2:02:15back up to Philly when I met him.
- 2:02:18And he was like, yeah, we got to go.
- 2:02:19We can't just stay here. We can, you know, we can't just
- 2:02:21be stupid kids, you know, we got to figure it out.
- 2:02:24So a lot of that came, optimism came from there.
- 2:02:27And then you just keep like having people around you that
- 2:02:31are pretty much about that. Yeah, I was going to say, you
- 2:02:32got to surround yourself with the.
- 2:02:33Right. Yeah, that's a real, that's a
- 2:02:34real thing. I know.
- 2:02:35Like, obviously, like everyone. Says that no, but you're it's
- 2:02:37still 100% true. Yeah.
- 2:02:39And if you need someone like like, like if I need something
- 2:02:43quick, fast, or just like like I have a room, a meatball, I can
- 2:02:47go to him. Yeah, A.
- 2:02:48Mismat. But if I need something that's
- 2:02:50going to be structured or maybe something that needs to be over
- 2:02:53thought a good bit, why have Trevor?
- 2:02:56And like, that's what he's good at.
- 2:02:56That's his personality. So like I'm OK with knowing what
- 2:02:59my strengths and what my weaknesses are.
- 2:03:00And like, if you have a whole bunch of friends around you that
- 2:03:03understand that game, like I don't know how you're not going
- 2:03:05to be successful, you know what I mean?
- 2:03:07Like, but you also have to know how to take your lickings and
- 2:03:10your frustrations and understand that.
- 2:03:13Like, it ain't supposed to be easy, you know what I mean?
- 2:03:16But when it works, I mean, like it works, you know what I mean?
- 2:03:19When I was in Endora, I'm like, damn.
- 2:03:21And that Fiat comes back over, yeah.
- 2:03:23And then you know you know it. Works.
- 2:03:26A movie. Yeah, but where's the best place
- 2:03:29you ate in that month? In that month.
- 2:03:31Yeah, actually, I was gonna bring that up when you said that
- 2:03:33you fed me. So like we went on, we went to
- 2:03:36Europe for. I'll be honest with you, man, I
- 2:03:38was. I was really disappointed by the
- 2:03:40cuisine. The cuisine.
- 2:03:42I never hear good. Things about over this trip was
- 2:03:44not except. Except when Yuri.
- 2:03:46Yuri hooked it up. Yes, when Yuri would take us
- 2:03:48out. Yeah, that was great.
- 2:03:49That was true. That was good.
- 2:03:51But honestly, I went through all that, I did all that, blah blah,
- 2:03:54blah. And then I come back home.
- 2:03:56This is this is after we come back from from Formula Drift
- 2:04:00Long Beach too. Russo invites me over and he
- 2:04:04makes a gnocchi, right? Gnocchi.
- 2:04:06Yeah. And he makes it all himself from
- 2:04:09scratch, the whole shit, like. You got the little like.
- 2:04:12Yeah, the whole thing, Yeah, He's a strange.
- 2:04:14He's a strange scratch. I meant damn bro, he's a
- 2:04:16straight. Up No no bro.
- 2:04:17Like straight. Up.
- 2:04:18You make pizza. We have like pizza 100%.
- 2:04:20We're big in there. No, Deniro.
- 2:04:21Was like, whoa, you know what I mean?
- 2:04:25And I'm eating it and I'm like, wow, this is amazing.
- 2:04:28And I, and I said it to him, I'm like, it's crazy that for the
- 2:04:31last month we've been travelling all around Europe and the best
- 2:04:34meal that I've had is here in your house that he made from
- 2:04:38scratch. Yeah.
- 2:04:39From. From yeah, from a proper Italian
- 2:04:42and everything. That makes sense.
- 2:04:43But in Philadelphia. Yeah.
- 2:04:45And it was, it was crazy to see, but it's like it's, it's crazy
- 2:04:48to think you do all of that. And I'm like, this is a burst
- 2:04:50that I've had. Yeah.
- 2:04:51I haven't heard heard great things about the food in there,
- 2:04:54especially France and. England, obviously, I mean,
- 2:04:57obviously we're going for drifting, so the areas that
- 2:05:00we're going for weren't for food.
- 2:05:01Yeah, yeah, I went to Nice too over the summer.
- 2:05:05I don't even know how the. Fuck that is.
- 2:05:06France, France, the South of France.
- 2:05:08Okay. That food experience was pretty
- 2:05:13good, Okay. So it depends on where.
- 2:05:15You. Go when I went, when I went to
- 2:05:17Italy with, when I went to Italy with Russo.
- 2:05:20That's another story, I assume. That's gonna be great.

- 2:10:18Going to look right now all. Right now, yeah, I don't know.
- 2:10:21I don't recall who got that for us, but I've there was like that
- 2:10:25I spice phase a little while ago where everybody was just
- 2:10:28obsessed with I spice really. Just Malcolm, but yeah.
- 2:10:31No, I mean I understand it, I think.
- 2:10:35No, he's on the train. Do.
- 2:10:37You, I mean, do you have any questions about Japan?
- 2:10:39Because I know that's what you were going to ask when we first
- 2:10:42saw them. I was just wondering, it was
- 2:10:44just like seeing you there. I was because I went last year
- 2:10:47and I didn't think I was going to go either.
- 2:10:50Yeah, I went with the Front St. guys.
- 2:10:53Oh, before April, Not April, Yeah.
- 2:10:56Yeah, 2023. I went at the end of the year.
- 2:10:59Yeah. And I didn't think I was going
- 2:11:02to go like it wasn't a, it wasn't a priority of mine, which
- 2:11:05I sounds like you're the same way.
- 2:11:07So I was like. We choose it.
- 2:11:08Was but it just had to work out right like and it was just kind
- 2:11:11of hard. It was hard to make happen with
- 2:11:13all the travelling we've. Been really I got peer
- 2:11:15pressured. Yeah, yeah, me too.
- 2:11:17And I was. Like I got peer.
- 2:11:18Related Josh knew that if he made it work related, then I
- 2:11:21would go. So go baggy.
- 2:11:22Yeah, he did that. And then I was like, yeah, I'm
- 2:11:24going to go so. And then I don't know.
- 2:11:26I had a great time. I thought it was amazing.
- 2:11:29Maybe I didn't really know as much as you knew as far as the
- 2:11:32culture and stuff. But like, the food was so good,
- 2:11:36dude. Also, the first time I was
- 2:11:37really out of the country. I was sad.
- 2:11:39I think that's another thing too.
- 2:11:40I was well, I was well travelled already prior to going to Japan.
- 2:11:44And I was like, yo, you got, I mean, instantly we got, we went
- 2:11:47to go get the car. I was like, you got to go to 7.
- 2:11:4911 I got to go to 7. 11. Family.
- 2:11:51Market, you know I had. No, I went to 711 to get the the
- 2:11:54egg sandwich and I'm telling you right now.
- 2:11:56Game changer bread, it is amazing.
- 2:11:57It is amazing. The bread, the fluffiness bread
- 2:12:00the. American version everything
- 2:12:02here. Little pillow.
- 2:12:03The American version is is the raw is the is the worst thing
- 2:12:06ever. It sucks.
- 2:12:07I do fancy a family more the most the.
- 2:12:10Food too. Yeah, they.
- 2:12:12Were too. We liked all.
- 2:12:13Family, I liked all of them they.
- 2:12:14Know the chicken that one was. Yeah, family cheese.
- 2:12:18No lie. Like at least 20 pork.
- 2:12:20Buns all day long. Oh, you fucked with the?
- 2:12:22I fucked with the pork beans hard.
- 2:12:24Bro Oh yeah, you were loving those I.
- 2:12:25Loving those they. Got pizza one too?
- 2:12:27Yeah, they had a pizza, John. They had the Curry one's good.
- 2:12:30Yeah, oh dude, they're so good. I like getting a rice ball and
- 2:12:33getting a fam chicky and then just eating both of those while
- 2:12:36I'm moving. At a rate that's.
- 2:12:38That's a combo right there. At a rate.
- 2:12:41A ruse will attest. Like I thought I drove great on
- 2:12:45the public roads in Japan. I already know 'cause like, you
- 2:12:50know, when Josh and Josh Rolls was there too, he got behind the
- 2:12:53wheel, he was all over the place.
- 2:12:54I was like, yo, Get Me Out of this car right now.
- 2:12:56We're gonna get arrested. So.
- 2:12:58You don't feel it, but he's on that side.
- 2:12:59So he's like, bro, you're you're too close over here.
- 2:13:01So. But yeah, it does mess with you
- 2:13:03a little. Bit he's like dropping tires on
- 2:13:05stuff. Yeah, dude, or you make a turn
- 2:13:06I. Just put it wrong dude.
- 2:13:08Like you make it, you make a turn and you forget for a
- 2:13:10second, then you're supposed to be on the other side of the road
- 2:13:12and you're like, wait, whoa. I'm like, I drive the Alta all
- 2:13:14the time. It's right hand drive, but it's
- 2:13:16on the other side of the road. Yeah, still a little different.
- 2:13:18It's even more more confused. I just.
- 2:13:19Yeah, but I just. Look for the line.
- 2:13:21Yeah, that's what I do. Yeah.
- 2:13:22You just rot. That's what I was trying to tell
- 2:13:24him when I was there. I was like, you just got to hit
- 2:13:25the line. Even Chelsea, he was like
- 2:13:27following us on. He was like, dude, you guys like
- 2:13:30I'm like, bro, I know. I'm telling him the line, that
- 2:13:32line. Meanwhile he's getting lost too.
- 2:13:34Like dude, the amount, I can't even tell you all the jokes on
- 2:13:38the trip. We, we.
- 2:13:40We. Busted were.
- 2:13:41Were in Japan, did you say like more towards Tokyo?
- 2:13:45Well, Chelsea's, that's the whole vlog is like his trip of
- 2:13:48Japan this whole time. And he did, I forget how many,
- 2:13:51maybe five. Yeah, he did a couple tracks.
- 2:13:55So he did the one where he did the K car race.
- 2:13:57He knew me, yeah, he did the. K car race.
- 2:14:00Then we he did Niko and Niko was when we were flying in.
- 2:14:04So we missed Niko, but I was there last year and we flew in
- 2:14:07that night. Then from there it was Minami
- 2:14:10Chiba. Which was wild bro.
- 2:14:12So cool. Drifting without.
- 2:14:13Northeast Philly. Drifting without helmets.
- 2:14:15No helmets. You could do like, you could do
- 2:14:17whatever, you could do whatever. You had a quad drift around 2 up
- 2:14:20on the quad dude like this yo. Banshee.
- 2:14:23Butt to nuts, straight up just going dude.
- 2:14:26And I'm like I'm waiting for that tire to bite, grip and like
- 2:14:29swing them. Didn't happen like there was a
- 2:14:32there was an R34 that was on fire.
- 2:14:34Sunrise we went to and then Abasu.
- 2:14:37So that's like his whole trip. So it was a decent amount of
- 2:14:40Japan. We we jumped on at Minami Chiba.
- 2:14:43Yeah. We went to the.
- 2:14:44Sunrise was cool, Sunrise was really cool because we got there
- 2:14:47early. So we worked our way up north,
- 2:14:50you know, from Tokyo. We got there early and that's
- 2:14:52when we got to see like this old couple, like a grand grandfather
- 2:14:57and a grandmother. Sunrise cause what was the day
- 2:14:59of it it was like? It was like a Tuesday or
- 2:15:01something, or a Monday at like, brunch hour.
- 2:15:04Yeah, exactly. You know what I mean?
- 2:15:05And like, this is like the time that they go out.
- 2:15:08And like, aside from the dude going out there and drifting his
- 2:15:11Toyota, Jay-Z, whatever, It was awesome.
- 2:15:15What blew me away is the drip that grandma had on.
- 2:15:19Like she looked deck the fuck out, had beautiful dunks on.
- 2:15:24I think the dog matched with the outfit.
- 2:15:26Oh, I. Bet and like the grandfather
- 2:15:28pulls up with like one of the coverall fucking like you know,
- 2:15:33I'm I'm part of this team and everything and he's just I'm
- 2:15:36like, how do you look that fucking cool at like 70?
- 2:15:41And then you go out and. RIP.
- 2:15:42What the fuck? That's going to be you.
- 2:15:44That's yeah. I mean, I'm.
- 2:15:45That's. What I was telling him like
- 2:15:47that, what it was telling, it goes back to that.
- 2:15:49I was like, bro, really? I think we got a little more
- 2:15:51time than you think. Maybe I don't.
- 2:15:53Yeah, drifting for a little bit. Yeah, but drifting is over there
- 2:15:56longer, you know, so it's like it's.
- 2:15:57Just cool. They just, you know, they have
- 2:15:59their little like tent. They're all together.
- 2:16:01They eat all the. Like the whole, the whole little
- 2:16:03bingo team of theirs, you know, old people bingo team goes out
- 2:16:05there and like, I don't know, it's sick.
- 2:16:08It's sick to see all that happening.
- 2:16:10And then like the younger dudes were kind of lame.
- 2:16:12To be honest. I was just kind of like you
- 2:16:14guys, why are you guys like they were on the skid pad lame.
- 2:16:17You know, the adults, They were just like, we're doing a road
- 2:16:19course and I'm like. Chelsea really loved that track.
- 2:16:21He hit a bunch of back. He's there, Yeah, he kept
- 2:16:25saying, like he really thought he would love a bunch of people
- 2:16:28to go there and drive. It's called sunrise, yes.
- 2:16:30I never even heard of that sunrise circuit, so he would
- 2:16:33love to like tandem there. He was like, dude, this thing is
- 2:16:36set up for a perfect. Tan, yeah, definitely lends
- 2:16:38itself for that, yeah. Can you look that up, Malcolm?
- 2:16:40Sunrise circuit? I just, I've never even heard of
- 2:16:43that. FDJ went there 2524 I think, I
- 2:16:49think even this year, but I don't know.
- 2:16:50I saw the thing, it's a 24. All right, let me see if I got
- 2:16:54any questions in here. What the fuck?
- 2:16:56Let me see this track real quick.
- 2:17:02I would have loved to have seen Jimmy and Grant there those.
- 2:17:07Guys. Bro.
- 2:17:08Those guys, really. I rode with Grant like the whole
- 2:17:10time because he was just like get it and get it and I just
- 2:17:14dude, the in car footage is so sick from him.
- 2:17:16Dude shred so hard and I remember from last year like
- 2:17:19watching them, but dude this year like just ripping with them
- 2:17:22the whole time. It was not.
- 2:17:24Completely ripped. Like Grant absolutely rips,
- 2:17:27Jimmy Hoax absolutely rips both of those.
- 2:17:30Dudes, he did a comp, he did a comp back and.
- 2:17:32Forth he did the you did, huh? You you.
- 2:17:35Oh yeah. So I got in the car and from my
- 2:17:39perspective, which was which was N course, which was passenger
- 2:17:43seat Jimmy's car. Grant went first and then Jimmy
- 2:17:46went second and I had to judge like who won?
- 2:17:48Yeah, yeah. Grant destroyed Jimmy.
- 2:17:51Yeah. But it was, it was car based.
- 2:17:55They know it. You know, Jimmy Grant has a
- 2:17:57little bit more, but what was impressive is that Jimmy has
- 2:18:00maybe a little bit less, but it's how he tries to like.
- 2:18:04A. Naked house what?
- 2:18:05Car was Jimmy driving that S14 or did?
- 2:18:07He no, no JZX Yeah, 100. Because this is pretty far
- 2:18:11north. It this all came out on his
- 2:18:14channel I think. But it was, it was really good
- 2:18:16to see that like their timing's really good.
- 2:18:18They're really comfortable. Like it's just really
- 2:18:20impressive. Like to see, obviously they they
- 2:18:23come from a different way of that, maybe not grand so much I
- 2:18:26mean, but obviously they're Youtubers, whatever.
- 2:18:28But like, I don't know. I don't really.
- 2:18:30Yeah, Grand used to drive. I don't really even see them
- 2:18:32that way. Like these dudes just, they
- 2:18:34just. RIP Well, that's the joke,
- 2:18:35right? Like I, I even say it like in,
- 2:18:38well, I wrote it in the vlog and then you you said it and stuff
- 2:18:41like that. But the joke you know with
- 2:18:44Chelsea is always that they're what Youtubers first and then
- 2:18:47drivers. Yeah, Drivers second.
- 2:18:48Yeah. Yeah.
- 2:18:49So it's just like, it's just like funny, like, and it fuels.
- 2:18:52It. Feels the craziest part is that
- 2:18:55Grant didn't even have a YouTube till like 2 years ago.
- 2:18:57Or something. Yeah.
- 2:18:58Because he used to come the club loose all the time like he's
- 2:19:01been. Bro, when I met Grant, I was
- 2:19:02like, yo, so what's like, nice to meet you?
- 2:19:04Yeah. So what do you like?
- 2:19:05YouTube and stuff? He's like, Nah, I'm like.
- 2:19:08What I'm like. So how do you do?
- 2:19:09Like, cool shit all the time. He's like, just post stuff on
- 2:19:13Instagram. I'm like, wait, what?
- 2:19:14Yeah. And then like within two years
- 2:19:16from now, he had a YouTube and it like blew up.
- 2:19:18And I was like, yeah, dude. There's a lot of dude, a lot of
- 2:19:21dudes out there that were just, you had Aaron Lucy from Lone
- 2:19:24Stars. He was, he took me like he was
- 2:19:26the one who actually was like, get in my car.
- 2:19:29I'm taking you to every track. Yeah, he's funny.
- 2:19:31He took. First things, so he's I take it
- 2:19:33out of all these tracks. So I got to see him drive with
- 2:19:37Rudy. He was driving an S14.
- 2:19:40Those guys are very comfortable and they just started throwing
- 2:19:42down. Dude.
- 2:19:43Like absolutely throwing down. Field came out, field started
- 2:19:46throwing. Down field.
- 2:19:47Everyone was. There the best time is before,
- 2:19:50but then yeah, at Matsuri Field came out for that.
- 2:19:54It was cool. So Josh was.
- 2:19:55His first time. Oh, really?
- 2:19:57His first time, Yeah. Josh was out there ripping.
- 2:20:00Oh man, we were egging him on North Core's first turn.
- 2:20:03I felt bad. We were yelling and I'm like
- 2:20:05yelling and I'm like dickhead. He's like, he's, he's trying to
- 2:20:09send like a back. He like through the turn, you
- 2:20:10know, like and really like 'cause he knew we haven't like
- 2:20:14met, that we were there yet all together.
- 2:20:16Yeah, yeah, he was. Just out there driving, we saw
- 2:20:18him, we just started yelling and then he saw us in the corner.
- 2:20:21So we just like put all this extra pressure on him.
- 2:20:23He's totally addicted to going to Japan too, so.
- 2:20:26Dude, it's one. 100% Oh no, he's we're definitely.
- 2:20:30So you're coming, right. Like how we link him up.
- 2:20:31Yeah, it's definitely turned into one of those things.
- 2:20:34But I was saying earlier about how cheap it is over there to do
- 2:20:36anything. It is cheap.
- 2:20:38It is. It's.
- 2:20:39Cheap, but then I want to do a lot of stuff.
- 2:20:41It's like cheap within reason if you make it.
- 2:20:44Cheap, you know, it is cheap. I I thought what was really
- 2:20:47reasonable is they have that sideways experience group over
- 2:20:50there that like rents out the cars and like my understanding,
- 2:20:53like you could have a day at my, you can have a day Saturday you
- 2:20:58could have done there. And it's like, I think it's like
- 2:20:59$1000 or something like that. And you have the car to RIP.
- 2:21:03I thought that was, I'm like, wow, that's that's pretty
- 2:21:05affordable. And like, it was just, I wanted
- 2:21:08to see how it worked out. And oh, like, I'm watching that.
- 2:21:14And because I'm watching the sideways, yeah, he became the
- 2:21:18Brazilian dude. And I'm watching the Sideways
- 2:21:22experience to drive the 350Z. And then I see 1350Z from the
- 2:21:26third Sideways experience ripping hard, hard, hard, hard,
- 2:21:31hard. It could have been you right
- 2:21:32there. And I'm like, who is this
- 2:21:33person? Right?
- 2:21:35So I'm asking around and stuff like that.
- 2:21:36Come to find out, it's a chick, a New Zealand chick.
- 2:21:40What was her name? Again.
- 2:21:44Oh, we did that thing. I know there's so many people.
- 2:21:46What's her? Name.
- 2:21:47There's a lot. Of Neve Neve yo.
- 2:21:50Right. Straight up, Yeah, I guess.
- 2:21:53Yeah. Who cares?
- 2:21:55She rips. Hold on.
- 2:21:56Are you fine? She does it.
- 2:21:57That's her name, I'm pretty sure.
- 2:21:59She absolutely. I thought I was sure, not for
- 2:22:01nothing, but it was like I was like, I thought she was a dude.
- 2:22:04Yeah. I mean, it was just.
- 2:22:05Dude, she's a shredder. Those ZS over there, did you
- 2:22:07notice that they're a little slower than the ones they got
- 2:22:09here? We got to the bottom of some of
- 2:22:12that, right? No.
- 2:22:14They are. I, I don't, I don't know if it
- 2:22:16was slow. I mean like.
- 2:22:17Which is some. I've been in some dog ass cars
- 2:22:20here. We.
- 2:22:21We talked to some people and they weren't running like sway
- 2:22:23bars or something like that. No, motor wise they're
- 2:22:26different. Is it the same engine though?
- 2:22:28Yeah, but the injectors are different, the ECU is different.
- 2:22:31Whatever feels slower like that, Yeah, yeah.
- 2:22:34Yeah, I mean, I mean, I just grab, I pretty much reflash all
- 2:22:39of them anyway. Yeah.
- 2:22:40It's just a standard thing at this point, you know, I mean to
- 2:22:42do all that. So I'm assuming that's what they
- 2:22:44were doing there. But a lot of the there was that
- 2:22:47actually all the dudes that were from that group were ripping.
- 2:22:50Yeah, definitely. The ZS are starting to catch up
- 2:22:52now. Like I was going to say, it's.
- 2:22:54Interesting to see more of them. Because they're like, oh, this
- 2:22:56is and they're going to conserve them.
- 2:22:58They're not going to tear them apart and do all the dumb shit
- 2:23:00we do. They're going to just, you know,
- 2:23:02do the same thing. Do that with the JZXS.
- 2:23:03It's like, all right, we're going to just keep them basic
- 2:23:05and. Bolt this stuff, even we were
- 2:23:06talking about that with Robbie too, because like the G, him
- 2:23:09buying the G and then he like realized like, oh shit, this
- 2:23:11yeah. 'Cause I'm like, yo, you should
- 2:23:12just got that. You should just got that.
- 2:23:14And yeah. And then he realizes like
- 2:23:16there's so many there, especially if you're getting AG
- 2:23:17over there, like they're cheap, you know, but to see the level
- 2:23:20of a lot of those drivers there, especially from like that girl,
- 2:23:25I think there was a gun named Brit.
- 2:23:27Then the like their friends high chance or something like that.
- 2:23:30And. Like Kane, Kane, Kane.
- 2:23:31Yeah, That's a good friend of mine too.
- 2:23:33They're murdering it, dude. Murdering Daki's that.
- 2:23:36Scottish prick. Everybody was there.
- 2:23:38Who was the dude that hooked us up?
- 2:23:39What was his name? Wi-Fi.
- 2:23:41Wi-Fi. Shout out to Wi-Fi.
- 2:23:43I don't know, Team, team, team, team.
- 2:23:46He hooked it up hard. Yeah.
- 2:23:48And it was like. Wi-Fi demand.
- 2:23:50Yeah, Wi-Fi is the man. We were connected for sure.
- 2:23:53Yeah, we have 5G, yeah. Dude Kane is the nicest dude.
- 2:23:59We I spent a lot of late nights with him.
- 2:24:01Dude, funny. Dude, everybody was super, super
- 2:24:04nice, man. I couldn't.
- 2:24:05I ran into the Brazilian dudes that I, when I went to go down
- 2:24:08Lucas and his brother Sergio and stuff like that, that I haven't
- 2:24:11seen in like 40 years. When I went to go judge an event
- 2:24:13down there, it was just, it was great.
- 2:24:15Dude, I was egging Chelsea on a bit.
- 2:24:18So I seen this dude now I forget his name.
- 2:24:21This is terrible. But whatever I saw, I saw on
- 2:24:23Instagram someone was down at Minami and had did the jump and
- 2:24:29I was like, I sent it right to Chelsea and and Grant and our
- 2:24:32group. We had a side group chat.
- 2:24:34I was like, damn, he's cooler than us.
- 2:24:36I guess you know, you know, like type stuff.
- 2:24:39So we go Chelsea's like, no, I'm telling you, I'll I'll drive
- 2:24:43there. I don't give a fuck.
- 2:24:44Look, I'm gone. We're down like, all right,
- 2:24:46cool, whatever. I guess we're not cool, you
- 2:24:47know? And then he's like, no, we're
- 2:24:49gone. So then we go and dude.
- 2:24:51You just got a little bit that. Was one of those moments like in
- 2:24:54my lifetime that I was like, this is so cool.
- 2:24:58Like that moment, seeing him fly over the jump and come towards
- 2:25:04the wall towards me where I was filming and I was just like,
- 2:25:07this is the coolest thing I've seen, you know, top one of the
- 2:25:10coolest things I've seen. Like Chelsea for one.
- 2:25:13Then Chelsea being my boy. Like seeing that I saw when he
- 2:25:17first won at like Long Beach, like I was saying, I was
- 2:25:19shooting for BC at the time, traveling around and obviously I
- 2:25:23was tight with Chelsea, but dude, super emotional.
- 2:25:25So all these things like, and then I'm seeing this happen,
- 2:25:28something that I, I'll never forget that clip when I saw it
- 2:25:31from like, Daigo doing it, you know?
- 2:25:33Yeah, yeah. Like, so in my mind, that's just
- 2:25:35one of those moments. I'm like, yeah, I'm trying to,
- 2:25:38yeah, I'm trying to film it. And I'm like, Oh my God.
- 2:25:41And it's, and it's in a BMW, an E36 wagon with A1J with A1J in
- 2:25:46it that someone originally drove from like Europe, drove it all
- 2:25:50the way in France, all the way through Russia.
- 2:25:52That actually, yeah, there's a whole history behind that
- 2:25:55chassis. Then he puts A1J in it.
- 2:25:57And then he does this jump casually with his wife in the
- 2:26:00passenger seat. She's doing gang signs.
- 2:26:02Which that's that's everyone's favorite Chelsea star, man,
- 2:26:05she's she's such. A cool thing to see like that
- 2:26:08feels great real moment because. And they all push on each other
- 2:26:12to keep on going, more like Grant and then each other keeps
- 2:26:15pushing and. Pushing.
- 2:26:15Then we found out there was like they were trying to see who
- 2:26:18could do the fastest at Higashi. Yeah, my bud, my buddy Hayden
- 2:26:23had like a little speed gun thing.
- 2:26:25Yeah, yeah, yeah, they always do that.
- 2:26:27They. Fucking I guess 100 miles an
- 2:26:29hour is the thing over there. Chelsea did 173.
- 2:26:34That's fastest. Filometers climb.
- 2:26:36I was going. To say I don't know what the
- 2:26:37fuck is. Kalos. 173.

- 2:28:31I've been, I've been training. I've been training it when I
- 2:28:35said. I thought I heard one of the
- 2:28:37spotters which are on the other side of the camera say
- 2:28:41something, so I looked back, thought I heard them say
- 2:28:45something and I looked back over like this.

- 2:31:44Can't give them anything you. Know actually when I went
- 2:31:47through the first time, I went to Silverstone, all these
- 2:31:48places, I had some time there. I got tattooed.
- 2:31:51That dude Gandhi started my chess piece.
- 2:31:54I was like so hyped on it. And then his other boy that he's
- 2:31:57really good friends with happened to be tattooing on the
- 2:32:00shop there. So I met up with him and he
- 2:32:02tattooed me and like added to it.
- 2:32:03He was so sick. But because I was in that area
- 2:32:07for a couple days, I was in like I stayed at an Airbnb basically
- 2:32:12on Brick Lane. I had the best food experience
- 2:32:15I've ever had there. Ohh it was all immigrant.
- 2:32:18As we're talking Ohh. Mother.
- 2:32:20These it was all. Immigrant they were like or our
- 2:32:23national dishes chicken tiki masala.
- 2:32:25Indian. I had Indian there.
- 2:32:29You always claim someone elses food, yeah?
- 2:32:32Be like, well this is I had fun. I had battle buns, I had all
- 2:32:36this stuff bro. It was amazing.
- 2:32:39It blew my mind because I always talk so much shit.
- 2:32:42Yeah. But obviously I know the grain
- 2:32:45of salt part is like, it's other people's.
- 2:32:48Yeah. Like it's not English people's.
- 2:32:50Do they have ducks? Over there, at least like is,
- 2:32:52yeah. But I don't know.
- 2:32:53They talk about Brickell Bracko. I don't even know that, Dave.
- 2:32:55I would just watch so many episodes of Kitchen Nightmares
- 2:32:58from. There Brickell, Brack, like all
- 2:33:00those. Brooklyn Foods trash bro.
- 2:33:02It's it's. Yeah, that's why.
- 2:33:05You. That's why you.
- 2:33:05Need other people like that to come in and make some food.
- 2:33:09You won't you have to sit the first half there until it was,
- 2:33:11it was like other cultures food and I was like.
- 2:33:14Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, that was 'cause it was
- 2:33:15shocking to me. I was like, 'cause I was like in
- 2:33:18this, like gritty market area, and it's a really cool area and
- 2:33:22it's like really hip. They have a lot of vintage
- 2:33:24stores, all this stuff, but there's just so much diversity
- 2:33:27right there. And like we're used to that from
- 2:33:30like Philly and like all this stuff, but like I've lived in
- 2:33:33some places where it was like not like that.
- 2:33:35And I'm like feels odd. So like it was very cool for me
- 2:33:40to go there and have that experience and be like, wow, the
- 2:33:42food was good. Like clearly I found I found the
- 2:33:45spot. Whoa, I found the but they have
- 2:33:47that. I had to go to the area where
- 2:33:48they didn't speak English. But it was that like bagel or
- 2:33:52bagel or whatever, you know, like they have a spot that
- 2:33:55everyone goes to. It's a very famous spot.
- 2:33:57It's on Brick Lane. And I went and tried it because
- 2:34:00I was like, I'll give them a chance.
- 2:34:01You know, I ate it and I was like, I was on like Instagram.
- 2:34:05I was like, this is fucking disgusting.
- 2:34:07I was like, I was like, dude, a mid shop like in the middle of
- 2:34:10our country would make like a better one.
- 2:34:12I love how we talk so much dude it was crazy.
- 2:34:15But like when we have the best of your.
- 2:34:16Culture here. Yeah.
- 2:34:18Fuck. Like come on.
- 2:34:20I just couldn't believe it. The bagel, bagels and pizza from
- 2:34:23anywhere else. From where we are, it's just
- 2:34:26like. Going to be a downgrade.
- 2:34:27For a sandwich, I made you a sandwich.
- 2:34:28I'm like, no, you didn't get that away from.
- 2:34:30Me in Dublin, I went to a pizza spot that the boys took me to.
- 2:34:35Trevor, this dude, Jeff, they took me in Cerrone because we
- 2:34:39were there shooting and it was awesome.
- 2:34:42I think they're close enough to Italy where they get they get
- 2:34:45the right flour, you know, from the right ingredients.
- 2:34:47It was really good, dude. It was surprising.
- 2:34:49It caught me off guard, honestly.
- 2:34:50Yeah. All right, all right.
- 2:34:54All right, so we got UK guys talking shit.
- 2:34:57Bree's craziest experience as an instructor at Drift School
- 2:35:00Evergreen. You got any crazy stories?
- 2:35:04That's pretty boring. Yeah, I was going to say,
- 2:35:07compared to the rest of your life.
- 2:35:08Pretty boring. Though where anyone shock you
- 2:35:10when they came or. No, you know what it.
- 2:35:14Like someone pulled up and what is?
- 2:35:15Shocking is how much of an older female demographic comes to the
- 2:35:20school. That always shocks me.
- 2:35:21They you make him feel safe. You know what I mean?
- 2:35:24It's also word of mouth. Great.
- 2:35:25It's also word of mouth from people.
- 2:35:26Great at talking and he's like he exactly.
- 2:35:29He's great at making you feel comfortable and like.
- 2:35:32He's just buttered me up so I can do the voiceovers from now
- 2:35:34on on the video. Yeah.
- 2:35:35Oh yeah, you. Know this?
- 2:35:36Come on, another game. Quick break to our judge Reese
- 2:35:38Marin. I'm like.
- 2:35:39Yeah. Yo but my homies are like, I
- 2:35:44love how you switch up 'cause you definitely don't talk like
- 2:35:46that in real life. And it's so straight.
- 2:35:48It's. Super.
- 2:35:49Straight, but you don't want to like.
- 2:35:51Sure. Let me let you know going into
- 2:35:53outside zone 1 you can see here. But you just.
- 2:35:56Bid offline. Hate to see that.
- 2:35:58You know when to lock in though. I feel like that's that's what
- 2:36:01makes. Yo, but as soon as they say kind
- 2:36:03of like that motherfucker, you suck dude.
- 2:36:07Yo tell your boy he sucks. Bro get your boy and.
- 2:36:10Reese, we're on in three two. Now back to the.
- 2:36:14Yeah. It's that's literally how it
- 2:36:16goes, man. It's kind of, it feels like
- 2:36:18Formula Drift is kind of chill though.
- 2:36:20It is, dude. It's awesome, dude.
- 2:36:22The second year being there again, it that that's all goes
- 2:36:25to Robbie, Brian, Vernon and, and the whole staff that they
- 2:36:30just, they just do a good job of making that run and it's really
- 2:36:33transparent. You know, it's, it's, I think, I
- 2:36:37think I saw a podcast, a circle of Drift where they had Sage on.
- 2:36:40Dude, he's the man too. And.
- 2:36:42He's very transparent and they were just like, oh, I know you
- 2:36:44guys want us to do all that. And it was cool that it takes,
- 2:36:47it takes a lot of balls and a lot of man to be like, I, I get
- 2:36:50it, dude. He's like, but like, what those
- 2:36:52dudes spend in one round is what we spend in eight.
- 2:36:57Yeah. So like the transparency to be
- 2:37:00like, yeah, I get it, but this is what we're dealing with.
- 2:37:02Like, I think that's cool because, you know, some people
- 2:37:04will probably not own up to something like that and just try
- 2:37:07to make it happen. He's like, no, this is what
- 2:37:09we're dealing with, dude. So like.
- 2:37:10And that dude's a genuine dude. Yeah, all of those dudes do a
- 2:37:14really good job of making. My experience there is just
- 2:37:16amazing, you know, whether it's Dad or Andy Locke or like.
- 2:37:19Andy's a stat. All those dudes, this is a lot
- 2:37:22of love. We're bitching at each other the
- 2:37:24entire time, you know, don't get that wrong.
- 2:37:26It's definitely. Happening but like.
- 2:37:28But it all works out really good.
- 2:37:30So it's like we it's a blessing, dude.
- 2:37:32Like we are a little group, like we provide like all the slow MO
- 2:37:35stuff for the series and then his show after that we do.
- 2:37:40Yeah, it's, it's great. I can't.
- 2:37:42The second year has been I think smoother than ever, to be
- 2:37:45honest. It's.
- 2:37:45Just crazy dude. From club loose to this shit,
- 2:37:48it's kind of. Crazy.
- 2:37:49Kind of crazy. Hey, but I mean, I mean yo, we
- 2:37:51Tony, Angela was from club Loose and he was a judge, you know
- 2:37:53what I mean? Like.
- 2:37:55Yeah, definitely. But it's just, I don't know,
- 2:37:57it's everything. It is crazy like you like it's
- 2:37:59cool for you because you saw the whole yeah, like, yeah, it's
- 2:38:02cool. Yeah.
- 2:38:03There's not many people. I mean, now there are many
- 2:38:05people, but it's cool to have have the conversation.
- 2:38:07I just didn't know. I didn't know your whole back
- 2:38:08story. So that's why we're.
- 2:38:09Yeah, I mean, I'm not like a great talker.
- 2:38:12For no you. Are say about myself and stuff
- 2:38:14like that, you're fine. What the fuck you?
- 2:38:16You just gave us such a great narrative about who we are.
- 2:38:18We know you're fine because you nailed the Post Malone story
- 2:38:21totally fine. He's he's, he's what I call a
- 2:38:23good role. He may not be start it, but once
- 2:38:26it goes and you can't at all I. Just like always feel like I'm
- 2:38:28like bragging. So I'm always like, I'm like I
- 2:38:30was never. Saying he's.
- 2:38:32The greatest, he's the greatest friend, the best friend to have
- 2:38:35because like he talks me up so fat to people and like that's
- 2:38:39how it work. It like breaks the ice for me
- 2:38:41and stuff because I'm just. And you're always.
- 2:38:42Gonna feel like. Bragging.
- 2:38:43I don't tell people like the postman.
- 2:38:45I don't tell. But you're but you're on a
- 2:38:47podcast as a guest and we're asking you so you have to.
- 2:38:49Know I'm not to share but. It would like.
- 2:38:52It's not a brag. But it's also the culture
- 2:38:54growing up in our environment. That's just how I've kind of in
- 2:38:57our environment. Dude, probably one of the
- 2:38:58sickest stories we've heard and like, and.
- 2:39:00Oh, thank you. It did not come off in any way,
- 2:39:03shape or form that you were bragging about nothing.
- 2:39:05Yeah, it's just and. I think it's so normal to a lot
- 2:39:07of us in our friend group that, like I said, we get very jaded.
- 2:39:12Yeah, definitely. We're we're, this isn't normal
- 2:39:15for everyone, you know what I mean?
- 2:39:17And then it's I have those moments sometimes where I'm
- 2:39:19like. It's the best when those moments
- 2:39:21hit. Yeah, you like, take a step
- 2:39:22back. We're in Japan.
- 2:39:24We're, like doing it, you know? It's like damn, that's crazy.
- 2:39:26Dude, yeah. And there's like.
- 2:39:27Ride the wave. Yeah, for real, you know.
- 2:39:30It's. Like what, 6 deep in a truck?
- 2:39:33Judge, travel around, we're doing.
- 2:39:35It's crazy. When's Ride the Right Wave Part
- 2:39:382 tour? Come on.
- 2:39:39Dude, I know, maybe when the youth can come out with
- 2:39:43something worth filming on. Yeah.
- 2:39:45They were like, it's funny watching back of those videos
- 2:39:48and how long they are and stuff and you're just like.
- 2:39:50Yeah, they were you. Can't get away with that, you.
- 2:39:52Can't get away with those movies anymore, yeah.
- 2:39:54I try to with the vlogs but it's I know it's like.
- 2:39:57AI think you do a good job of like that's as close as you're
- 2:40:00going to get. Yeah, I think so too.
- 2:40:01You know what I mean? It's all.
- 2:40:02Short form shit now, yeah. Yeah.
- 2:40:05After the past few years, is there anything you've learned
- 2:40:07from your travels that made you fall in love with drifting or
- 2:40:10driving again? Or I'm going to say more because
- 2:40:14I think you guys have liked drifting the whole time.
- 2:40:20Drifting has the ability of allowing you to stop time so you
- 2:40:26just never feel like you grow up.
- 2:40:29That's. Pretty accurate.
- 2:40:30I think for me, the thing that always comes to my mind when I
- 2:40:33think about something like that is like, I remember when I was
- 2:40:36younger and I like always wanted to like travel and shoot for
- 2:40:41something and then like the progression of all that where it
- 2:40:45was like, man, this is so cool. I know like kids in other cities
- 2:40:49I could crash if I needed to, but that's the coolest part to
- 2:40:52me about like Motorsports is really just the community of
- 2:40:55people and friends. So like having that progression
- 2:40:58through it and now we're like getting to that point where it's
- 2:41:00like we travelled States and now we're travelling countries and
- 2:41:03now it's like. You have places you could stay
- 2:41:05in anywhere. Almost like it's.
- 2:41:07Crazy. Well, maybe not after this
- 2:41:08podcast, after the yeah yeah yeah, the beans shit, but.
- 2:41:11Yeah, maybe not in the UK. We don't want to go there, OK?
- 2:41:15We don't want to go out there. Fuck your.
- 2:41:16Fucking beans you'll. Come over.
- 2:41:17Where you at? You now alright?
- 2:41:20Meet me in Andor. Bro.
- 2:41:24There's a lot of being talking here.
- 2:41:27I love it. I didn't understand this
- 2:41:28question. Maybe you guys can.
- 2:41:30It sounds like he's from another country because he's spelled
- 2:41:32tire that way. Ty.
- 2:41:33Yeah. Will a spec tire in pro drifting
- 2:41:37ever actually happen, and if so, thoughts on the outcome?
- 2:41:41What does a spec tire mean? Am I retarded?
- 2:41:44I I think would. Like if it's probably like
- 2:41:46Goodyear, like one NASCAR and stuff like one Goodyear to
- 2:41:49NASCAR. But didn't didn't we already
- 2:41:50have that happen before? And drifting.
- 2:41:52I I I think a version of that would be the.
- 2:41:55GT. Radio or something.
- 2:41:56Well, that was that was like pro spec, right?
- 2:42:00Oh, it was only pro spec. Yeah, yeah, OK.
- 2:42:02So it's. Yeah, still just now we do have
- 2:42:04support that was the support them kind of to help them out.
- 2:42:07But you know, there's different sides to that.
- 2:42:10But it's probably just. The tire companies don't want to
- 2:42:12shell out the money it would cost to have Formula DD for.
- 2:42:15Me for sure. It's like, you know, it's, it's,
- 2:42:19I think all the, the fans and everything need to realize like
- 2:42:23companies are always looking for a time and a place to hit the
- 2:42:26iron when it's hot. And years, years and years ago,
- 2:42:30when we were younger, the iron was hot to hit when it came to
- 2:42:32tires. They had big checks they were
- 2:42:35giving out back. Like, remember we.
- 2:42:36Told you like it was evenly Dunloped.
- 2:42:38Higher back and all that stuff like so it's different.
- 2:42:42I, I understand people want to get to that, but like, if the,
- 2:42:45if, if the environment economically doesn't lend itself
- 2:42:50for that, we're not going to get that, you know what I mean?
- 2:42:51So it's like, yeah, it's, it's kind of like when people are
- 2:42:54like, oh, like how come hot rodding isn't a thing anymore?
- 2:42:56I'm like, well, that's because the prices at that point allowed
- 2:42:59it to exist. We lived through that hot rod
- 2:43:02phase and drifting already because I was picking up to 40s
- 2:43:05for $600.00. So like, and you could build the
- 2:43:082:40 to drift back in those times for like under 3.
- 2:43:12You know, if you were really going hard at it, you can't do
- 2:43:15that anymore, you know what I mean?
- 2:43:16So it's like, like you just have to understand that the evolution
- 2:43:19of driving is always going to be like we had hot rods that you
- 2:43:22know. But drifting might get to a
- 2:43:23point where. I don't know, maybe, yeah, let's
- 2:43:26see. But now the difference is, is
- 2:43:27that we have technology that that is the new ingredient that
- 2:43:30hot rodding didn't have. Well, I'm just thinking about
- 2:43:32this tire thing because it realistically the only other
- 2:43:35thing that could make that change is if drifting gets as
- 2:43:37big as what I think it's going to become and then the tire
- 2:43:40companies are like, well, this is as big as NASCAR you.
- 2:43:43Know what I mean? The crazy.
- 2:43:44Thing is, is like, we kind of already were, yeah.
- 2:43:48I feel like we're not because we because.
- 2:43:50NASCAR dropped off. It is having a resurgence and
- 2:43:54I've watched a lot of this and me and Saron have like a lot.
- 2:43:57Of common, yeah, I mean you guys probably have know the numbers
- 2:43:59too. And we know like some of the
- 2:44:01people and we've been integrated from Vaughn and stuff like that
- 2:44:03and seen like some of the back door stuff and like all the
- 2:44:06stuff. So like it's had a resurgence
- 2:44:10now. I think it's definitely picked
- 2:44:11up ground, but on paper and yeah, maybe like that's an FD
- 2:44:16thing, but like we look like we have more followers subscriber
- 2:44:20like you know, social. Media, OK, yeah.
- 2:44:22Because none of the drivers they have better following now like
- 2:44:25Joey does. But I remember shooting with
- 2:44:27Joey and Vaughn and I was just like dude what a crippling
- 2:44:30difference. Like Joey had almost no
- 2:44:33followers. I mean Chelsea or Vaughn had a
- 2:44:37triple or way more than any. You would have to put like 3
- 2:44:42guys together in NASCAR. Yeah, yeah.
- 2:44:45So like I just the. Demographic is probably.
- 2:44:47Older too. Yeah.
- 2:44:49I always think about this talk and I always I'm like, I've gone
- 2:44:53through this talk a million times in my head and like, where
- 2:44:55is the money? Why isn't it you know?
- 2:44:58Yeah, I mean, I'm waiting for it to.
- 2:44:59Switch like. It doesn't make sense.
- 2:45:00Definitely not the TV thing. What it doesn't make?
- 2:45:03Sense but they're on TV, you know, like, well, I think.
- 2:45:05A lot of people, I think a lot of people also haven't realized
- 2:45:07what's happening yet. Like the people controlling
- 2:45:10stuff, they're they still think. They they're definitely late to
- 2:45:13the game and yeah, a lot of the people are like a little bit
- 2:45:17older the. Same thing with technology right
- 2:45:18now with the AI shit going on, I feel like a lot of people aren't
- 2:45:20realizing what's going on. Like as all these people are
- 2:45:23losing all their fucking jobs like and no one's talking about
- 2:45:25it. And people aren't kind of like,
- 2:45:27early adapting, like adopting it.
- 2:45:29So like, yeah, that's kind of the case for like, all things
- 2:45:31like the Internet. The Internet was like that too.
- 2:45:33People didn't want to use the Internet first.
- 2:45:34All the stuff it's like, how could you not use it?
- 2:45:36In a lot of shops back in the day and shit just went out of
- 2:45:39business because they didn't want to make a website.
- 2:45:41Crazy, you know, all this shit. Imagine.
- 2:45:43Yeah. So I think things are just like
- 2:45:44that too, you know? Yeah, but.
- 2:45:47I don't know, I still think drifting is on the up.
- 2:45:49You know, I I hope so. I love to hear it.
- 2:45:51I. Think we are on the up?
- 2:45:52I think so too. I'm sure many people would
- 2:45:55disagree. I I think the reason NASCAR has
- 2:45:59such a grip, and it's because that's a true American.
- 2:46:02Yeah. And drifting is not.
- 2:46:05But I think and it's getting there though for.
- 2:46:06Sure. And and I think because of those
- 2:46:09historic roots of this is America, that's what's going to
- 2:46:14always be the foundation for them and that's what's going to
- 2:46:17hold people traditionally. See, The thing is, it's like you
- 2:46:20may like something, but for it to be a tradition that is a type
- 2:46:25of loyalty that transcends any type of like, oh, this is just
- 2:46:28what I like. Now we may, we may get to that
- 2:46:30point. But again, drifting by nature,
- 2:46:33the origins is not American, it is Japanese.
- 2:46:36It is integrating for sure. It's like some steps are
- 2:46:38happening, like a lot of the tracks that we see going close
- 2:46:42out of business, but then. Like the drag shifters appear
- 2:46:44and then the drift. Tracks show up, come and they
- 2:46:46like support it a little bit. You know, that's like the dirt
- 2:46:49tracks that are. Happening, you know, I mean, I
- 2:46:52think that's why things like that museum thing that's going
- 2:46:54on is good because it kind of bridges.
- 2:46:56That's what I'm saying like The Drifters coming even to like
- 2:46:59Evergreen to like start to contribute to the community is
- 2:47:03really nice. Like so there is some
- 2:47:05progressions happening like that, which is cool and like I
- 2:47:08think just talk. That was a great point.
- 2:47:10And I think like we even see it and drift that blotch of stuff
- 2:47:13like that's kind of part of our Edgar and everyone's mission
- 2:47:16that's involved. Like we go downtown, we get in
- 2:47:19with the community. Make sure that it's all come
- 2:47:21out, you know. They all come out.
- 2:47:23Community. They check they are.
- 2:47:24Yeah. They're, they're, you know,
- 2:47:26that's our. Way in to the American.
- 2:47:28Culture, old coal towns, like old coal towns that are rundown
- 2:47:31and stuff like that and moonshiner towns that are just
- 2:47:34like, you know, they're not like super rundown or anything, but
- 2:47:36they they've saw hardships and it's cool to see them come out,
- 2:47:41look at the drift cars and they see what it's really about.
- 2:47:45They see in LS they're like. Yeah, I was gonna say brother
- 2:47:47like it, just there's a dull you.
- 2:47:49Know it's just, it's kind of cool.
- 2:47:51That one common ground and then all of a sudden like that whole,
- 2:47:55everyone's like. Everyone's cool.
- 2:47:57They. See Kylie's car and they're like
- 2:47:58what? And it's cool because imagine
- 2:48:00like I, I tell a lot of the dudes, I'm like, you need to
- 2:48:02realize that once you go to drift Apple, why we harp people
- 2:48:05for your car to look good is because.
- 2:48:08You're representing something. One hundred 100% and then also
- 2:48:11on top of that guaranteed there is a 10 year old.
- 2:48:16Yeah. Dude, they're faces.
- 2:48:18Bro, who's watching you and has probably replayed that clip of
- 2:48:22you more times than you will ever know because I was that kid
- 2:48:27before. Yeah, I must have replayed the,
- 2:48:30the, the tan, the Kaguchi black S13 hatch video more times than
- 2:48:37I can even tell you where I you know what I mean.
- 2:48:40And like that's happening now to us.
- 2:48:42And for you not to think that you're having that effect on
- 2:48:44someone like, yeah, you're missing the fucking bus bro.
- 2:48:47I've got. Some of those runs there, it's
- 2:48:49so. Yeah.
- 2:48:50Wild to me. Damn my one of my favorites is
- 2:48:55like Jeff in the rear of the train.
- 2:48:56Like going down. Yeah.
- 2:48:58So sometimes you got home, you gotta come check it out, Yeah.
- 2:49:00Yeah, I was. I was actually wondering.
- 2:49:03I haven't gone, but Carl is gone.
- 2:49:04You need to come to the next one.
- 2:49:06I won't tell you why, but you need to.
- 2:49:07Change that blatch. Okay, Blatch.
- 2:49:09Yeah, the next one you definitely just want to be there
- 2:49:12to witness. You said in spring.
- 2:49:14Yeah, in Spring, I'll give you details, but it's in Spring ish.
- 2:49:19I'll put the issue in there, but you definitely need it.
- 2:49:22Personally for me, I definitely am looking.
- 2:49:24Forward to it's a It is definitely one of the greatest
- 2:49:27times too. Again, like.
- 2:49:28Yeah, it's cool. There's top tier on the list.
- 2:49:30Of there isn't a lot of times I'm speechless, but like that.
- 2:49:33That first time I went to Drift Appalachia, I was just like,
- 2:49:35dude. Yeah.
- 2:49:37I was speechless watching and I was like I didn't know all these
- 2:49:39guys could fucking shred a mountain Rd. so good.
- 2:49:41Yeah, the Mountain Rd. ain't exactly.
- 2:49:43Both. Now he's seen kind of both.
- 2:49:45Bro it's. We're on park.
- 2:49:47Including you, I. Was like, I dude, he's fucking
- 2:49:49killing this fucking mountain road right now.
- 2:49:51The roads I'm in Japan club. Loose you.
- 2:49:53Know they're they're so they're slower.
- 2:49:55You don't realize how good what we.
- 2:49:56Are the road the the the toge in Japan?
- 2:49:59I feel like it's focused on the fact that there's a lot of turns
- 2:50:02at Appalachia just because it's but Toge doesn't mean it's a
- 2:50:06completely different caliber of what you're doing.
- 2:50:09I think in it's faster. It's at least at least three
- 2:50:14times faster. And what's what's another
- 2:50:17difference is a lot of these dudes don't know.
- 2:50:20We don't know. We just show up.
- 2:50:22We don't know the layout. We don't know nothing.
- 2:50:24We're blind. And then we it's a fun thing, we
- 2:50:27all. Line up and go.
- 2:50:28So I'm not saying I, I think globally now, there's just no
- 2:50:35way anyone in the world can't give us our flowers for what we
- 2:50:40do in anything in America. Yeah, yeah.
- 2:50:41No like. You can't like, I know you, you
- 2:50:44know, I think for a while we were kind of treated like the
- 2:50:49like the American football team, like the soccer team that was
- 2:50:52like, yeah, you're not really, but you're here and you're
- 2:50:54American, so whatever. It's not like that anymore.
- 2:50:56Though. Now it's like, oh, no, you throw
- 2:50:58down. And like, after being there and
- 2:51:01driving a little bit over in Japan, yeah, I was going.
- 2:51:03To say they're they're they're taking shit from us now and
- 2:51:06like, yeah, dial for this and that.
- 2:51:08And it's like, you know, I don't want that to happen.
- 2:51:09But and it's confident and I know dudes that I'm like, yo, if
- 2:51:13I could drop you in Japan, they would be amazed by how good we
- 2:51:16are. Definitely.
- 2:51:17You know, I'm not saying better, I don't care about the better
- 2:51:20part. I just think now those dudes are
- 2:51:22looking over at us and giving us a little hat tip, like, yeah,
- 2:51:25man, thanks for showing up finally.
- 2:51:26Yeah, you know what I mean? Yeah, I think we should be proud
- 2:51:30of that, you know, because there's no way those dudes
- 2:51:33aren't watching those videos. No way those dudes are ripping.
- 2:51:35Yeah, we just, we have like a camera car going the full time.
- 2:51:38It reminds me of the TV the Japanese 1 they did a few years
- 2:51:42ago on the Mountain Rd. They still do it.
- 2:51:43They still do. My boy is involved with that.
- 2:51:46Yeah, I'm sorry. That's the same goodbye.
- 2:51:47Yeah is yeah hardcore. Yeah, dude, June, Yeah, helps
- 2:51:51out on that, does that. He's a great dude.

- 2:56:08up and we're in the business of preserving cars that are
- 2:56:11naturally being used and. You're like, we're not so.

- 2:56:32Pieces. I wanted Tony to bring his old
- 2:56:34FRS there. We'll talk about that next year,

- 2:56:49they think I'm like, where in the world?
- 2:56:51Yeah. Yeah, dude.
- 2:56:52Where? Is he?
- 2:56:53Dude? I had the audacity like he met
- 2:56:55my mom. Oh.
- 2:56:56Bro I had the audacity to go to my mom and I was like hey this.
- 2:57:01Is in Japan. I was like, you're done, dude.
- 2:57:02I'm like yo, so like I'm thinking about going to Dubai.
- 2:57:07Adding another trip at the end of the year and.
- 2:57:08She was like, oh, it's really cool.
- 2:57:09I'm like, yeah, but like, I have to like, leave the 23rd and be
- 2:57:12back the 28th. She's like, oh, what?
- 2:57:14In December she's like, excuse me?
- 2:57:16And she was like, you're dad, dude.
- 2:57:18Yeah, I'm laying next to him and I'm like.
- 2:57:20Yo, but like, but I'm like, so yeah, because they don't
- 2:57:23celebrate Christmas, we got a different culture and everything
- 2:57:25like that, all love and they're like, yo, we had to move it
- 2:57:27over, blah, blah. So I was contemplating leaving
- 2:57:31to go to Dubai for over Christmas and.
- 2:57:35His mom had been over before because she was taking a trip to
- 2:57:38Italy and and my family was like putting her own game.
- 2:57:41But she said, like, at the table, too, Like, he wasn't
- 2:57:44there. She was like, Nah, Reese knows
- 2:57:47he can't miss these dates. And one of them was Christmas.
- 2:57:50Like, it was like Thanksgiving Christmas.
- 2:57:52Yeah. And I was like, you're done,
- 2:57:54dude. Kill.
- 2:57:55Ya, dude, she was not really. You could tell she was, says
- 2:57:58yeah, but it wasn't a yeah, she's.
- 2:58:00Colombian. Bro.
- 2:58:01Yeah. And then ultimately it was like
- 2:58:03put up her shut up time and I was like, they're getting a
- 2:58:07little bit older. That's understandably so.
- 2:58:09I'm like, I should probably just stick around as much as I can
- 2:58:11because you just. I would hate.
- 2:58:13We were supposed to do 2 more trips this year but yeah some
- 2:58:15sometimes. Yeah, yeah, we're supposed to
- 2:58:17go. Yeah, we're.
- 2:58:18Supposed to go to Costa Rica. From Japan, right?
- 2:58:21Yeah. We're supposed to stop off in
- 2:58:22Costa Rica, Yeah. To go do like a judging seminar
- 2:58:26down there 'cause they're like really getting into trying to
- 2:58:29like structure that well and, and obviously go get to drive
- 2:58:34down there as well. I'm like, I, every time I do I'm
- 2:58:36like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Can we, like, shave a little bit
- 2:58:38of that money off and get me a rental car 'cause like, if I'm
- 2:58:40going somewhere, like I'm going to shred.
- 2:58:42Yeah, like, that's just not like, that's just the thing now.
- 2:58:45Like you should already know this.
- 2:58:46Like find me a car. That's yeah, that's in your deal
- 2:58:49when you're. Yeah.
- 2:58:49Yeah, for sure. And what was the other one?
- 2:58:51It's. His Ryder, Yeah.
- 2:58:52Yeah, his Ryder. Costa Rica?
- 2:58:54What was the other one? That one, you were just talking
- 2:58:58about Dubai. Yeah, there's maybe Mexico, but
- 2:59:01it is. I was just saying like it's like
- 2:59:03funny that all the trips that we did do this year and then there
- 2:59:06was still someone on the table we left.
- 2:59:07Yeah, because. There'll be stories for next
- 2:59:09year, yeah. Yeah, I think so.
- 2:59:11Like we're thinking we're, I'm, I'm, I'm thinking I told him on
- 2:59:13the way up. I'm like, are we probably go to
- 2:59:14Mexico in January? Yeah, way later I'm.
- 2:59:17Gonna shred over there. That would be cool.
- 2:59:19Yeah, I'm all about that. Food would be good in other
- 2:59:21places. To go there, I could confidently
- 2:59:23say you're gonna love some food up in there, dude.
- 2:59:26I don't have a problem. I'm still trying to do the
- 2:59:29Columbia thing though. I'm so it's just hard to get a
- 2:59:31car down there, but the day I do like.
- 2:59:34We went last year, yeah. Yeah, we need more video.
- 2:59:38Like selfie videos. Are you?
- 2:59:40Dude, I need to do more TikTok. So like, yeah, Jacob, Jacob was
- 2:59:44like Jacob Count was like, dude, you need to do more TikTok.
- 2:59:47So you're like, what? You stopped?
- 2:59:48I'm like, there's a lot going on, dude, you know?
- 2:59:52But that's an excuse because like.
- 2:59:53Funny, I see when they all get caught up like that, Yeah.
- 2:59:56Dude, it's. And the amount of content that
- 2:59:58like my crew makes, I'm just like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 3:00:02But it's good you have a guy that kind of shows you like, all
- 3:00:04right, this is kind of what you need to be doing and stuff like
- 3:00:06that. You know what I mean?
- 3:00:06Like now I'm at the point where he can send me like is what do
- 3:00:09you call them? The the real the?
- 3:00:12Like the timelines, the. Timelines, so I know all of my
- 3:00:15clips are on there. So now I know how to take them
- 3:00:17off, sync them up to videos and stuff like that.
- 3:00:19And, you know, and when when I start doing it, you start
- 3:00:22realizing you're a few hours in on this edit, that's like a
- 3:00:25minute. And you're like, yeah, I was
- 3:00:27about to ask my boy to do this like, shit.
- 3:00:30Don't worry, sooner or later you can just tell AI what you want
- 3:00:32and it'll clip it all up and make it I mean.
- 3:00:34I I. Already.
- 3:00:35I can't wait, dude, because the way that I've kind of developed
- 3:00:38like a system on the back end over the years of like working
- 3:00:42and managing so much like projects like this, it fits into
- 3:00:46that mold very well. It prepares it for that next
- 3:00:49step very well, 'cause I'm just like trying to give, especially
- 3:00:52like drift Appalachian stuff, as much content as I can give out
- 3:00:56to especially the people that paid for their camera car and
- 3:00:59all this stuff. I'm just trying to give them as
- 3:01:01much footage as we can give so they can use it.
- 3:01:03And we try to package it so it's easy to use.
- 3:01:06But yeah, yeah, it that'll lend it to like AI Can't wait until
- 3:01:10it can just like pull something together and you can just keep
- 3:01:13hitting remix maybe to see. You're like, yeah, just just
- 3:01:15keep trimming it up. Like give me a different.
- 3:01:17Version of Damn the Remix use this.
- 3:01:19Song, Use this song, yeah. And then you're like, there's
- 3:01:23like that one's. And I've already seen little
- 3:01:25bits of that because like what we may, what you guys may not
- 3:01:28know God, Oh my God is when I go to Lai get to see Roosa turn
- 3:01:34into Neptune and starts producing these songs with his
- 3:01:37buddy Kyle and like they type them all up stuff and then all
- 3:01:41the songs come out and I'm like. Oh, you got AI songs?
- 3:01:44All right, so yo are. You the one that did the.
- 3:01:47Video yo I am, I didn't. Know we were going to.
- 3:01:51We will. Bless.
- 3:01:52We will blow, bro. We will blow a whole afternoon
- 3:01:55listening and I, yeah, at first you're like, oh, this is going
- 3:01:58to be corny, ha ha, ha. And then you're like, yo, throw
- 3:02:01this lyric in there. Bro, me and my boy Kyle, we've
- 3:02:04just been on a tear, like making tracks and stuff like that and
- 3:02:06they're kind of bangers. I mean, started, it started
- 3:02:09right before the tour 'cause I was like with him a couple
- 3:02:12months and he had learned this program from like a very famous
- 3:02:15producer and all this stuff. And he was like showing me.
- 3:02:18So then we like made a track when I was there and then I went
- 3:02:21home back to Philly from LA and then like made another.
- 3:02:24I made one on my own. He made one and we were bouncing
- 3:02:26them back and forth. And then when we went on tour,
- 3:02:28we started making like bangers. Like it was kind of crazy.
- 3:02:32Like I only say bangers because. Because you because you were
- 3:02:35bobbing. No, no, we weren't.
- 3:02:37We were. But we were like, yeah, we just
- 3:02:39think these are cool. We're like singing these funny
- 3:02:40songs or really serious songs. But then like we kept putting
- 3:02:44them on, like backstage. Like they call it the Bible
- 3:02:46Room. Like that's the green room and
- 3:02:49like Bible study and then we would go in there and like I
- 3:02:51would always be on the speaker on the aux a lot.
- 3:02:53So I would like play them and like, dude, people will fuck
- 3:02:56like digging it. And then like we would show like
- 3:03:00like, you know, industry people and they would be like this is
- 3:03:03fire, like what it would like blow their mind.
- 3:03:05So we were like, damn, OK, these are good.
- 3:03:08We have like something here going on but I don't know how
- 3:03:10do. You throw them on YouTube.
- 3:03:11And shit, No, no, no, no. It's just like a thing that
- 3:03:14we've been doing on the back end.
- 3:03:15We've given them to some people, but like, I don't know what diss
- 3:03:18track. You mean a diss track dude?
- 3:03:21You mean a whole diss track we can't talk about?
- 3:03:23That you mean a diss track? Dude?
- 3:03:25Yeah. About the beans and toast.
- 3:03:27Oh, Oh my God, yeah, that's yeah.
- 3:03:30Gotta like that you. Mean a whole diss track about.
- 3:03:32Got to put that on your side. Bro, so I like I went in there
- 3:03:35and I wanted to make like a what is it like Grimes on?
- 3:03:37Yeah, whatever. Like whatever.
- 3:03:38Their rap is drill. Drill.
- 3:03:41Drill drills from here, but then like their style.
- 3:03:43Drill, yeah. Yeah.
- 3:03:45Yeah, yeah. So dude, it's so funny.
- 3:03:48Like you can do anything like that and just type in the
- 3:03:50funniest lyrics and like do a bunch of stuff.
- 3:03:52And you just have a random voice doing all the shit like.
- 3:03:55Yeah, there's, there's, it's definitely a lot that goes into
- 3:03:58like manipulating the prompts and like doing that stuff and
- 3:04:00like you have to kind of know what you're doing.
- 3:04:02But it's a great tool for someone that does do music and
- 3:04:07needs to get down a path quick. Yeah.
- 3:04:09And it's hard. It's cost a lot of money to go
- 3:04:11in a studio and hire a full band.
- 3:04:13I have this one, like, track that's like this full orchestra,
- 3:04:16like crazy arrangement and like that.
- 3:04:18I like, was like making it do and like all the stuff, like I
- 3:04:21couldn't go and record that. Yeah.
- 3:04:22It's out of my price range, dude.
- 3:04:24So I think it's a cool tool for, like, people to use.
- 3:04:27I would love to like me and Kyle.
- 3:04:30I was trying to tell Kyle like, yeah, we should do like a hidden
- 3:04:32face like thing and like, like make an artist 'cause you can.
- 3:04:36Yeah, 100% a lot what we're thinking about.
- 3:04:38Yeah, definitely. We're trying to pitch these like
- 3:04:40on the back end right now to like people.
- 3:04:41So they're kind of with some like people and stuff.
- 3:04:44Like that. So you gotta see what happens.
- 3:04:45I'm Yeah. But I'm down to make more.
- 3:04:47But then we just have a lot of fun, too.
- 3:04:49Like he's saying like at the house, like we just mess around
- 3:04:52and like, make random funny shit.
- 3:04:53Yeah. I can't imagine Job is just like
- 3:04:56he's like it because that's where he lives and Kyle, me and
- 3:05:00Russo are just completely laughing like girls and about
- 3:05:04some song and it's such a crazy concept to think all.

- 3:05:23after hearing the kind of. Reason for reason.
- 3:05:26Line that you guys have? Because we've been talking about

- 3:06:27Who wants the last one? Chips of boy.
- 3:07:06All right, that's it. That's the end of the year.
- 3:07:09Wow, what a way to end the year. I'd say, though, that was a good
- 3:07:13good. Podcast definitely a good good
- 3:07:15way to end the year. Usually we do some ridiculous
- 3:07:18shit, but I decided not to do that this year.
- 3:07:20Just had a dial it back get a good good content filled podcast
- 3:07:27to end it. Yeah, get a good guest in here
- 3:07:28and actually, like, you know, try for this podcast for once.
- 3:07:32Yeah. Yeah, let's give it up for Russo
- 3:07:34and Reese. Yeah, they went on a trip of a
- 3:07:37lifetime. The.
- 3:07:38Dynamic duo, man, they've been doing this shit for a long time
- 3:07:42together so. How old is Reese and Russo I?
- 3:07:47Older than you. Yeah.
- 3:07:48I know Reese is older than you. Reese, I think is older than
- 3:07:51Russo. I think Russo is probably like,
- 3:07:55I don't know. I don't know their ages.
- 3:08:01Reese is by 40. That's what I thought, yeah, I
- 3:08:04remember, he told us a while a year ago or something.
- 3:08:07Yeah, Russo seems like he's like 37.
- 3:08:09All right, or younger. That's inspiring.
- 3:08:12Give me time. Make you feel like I have time
- 3:08:14gives. Me time.
- 3:08:15To go on a trip, on a trip of a lifetime like that.
- 3:08:17Yeah, yeah. Yeah, if I could do that by 40,
- 3:08:21I'll be, I'll be happy. Yeah, no, yeah, those trips,
- 3:08:26that euro trip is kind of crazy. Yeah, that's like some movie
- 3:08:32shit. Yeah, like I, I know they make
- 3:08:35videos and put out content, but like I think they should next
- 3:08:38time they do that, they should just do it old school and like
- 3:08:41make a real movie. Yeah.
- 3:08:44Like, not a movie, but like, I don't know, I guess it's just so
- 3:08:49hard to get shit out there these days.
- 3:08:51Yeah, just a long ass blog of some sort.
- 3:08:54No like we need like. Jackass style movies.
- 3:08:56Yeah, like CKY, like I have to buy the DVD type shit.
- 3:08:59That's all I was thinking of when they were saying they were
- 3:09:01recording everything, like it was some Jackass style stuff.
- 3:09:03Yeah. Like that's kind of what I want.
- 3:09:05But like, how do you do that Today's.
- 3:09:08Well, there's a way. How do you figure it out?
- 3:09:10There's a way to put it behind a paywall that could still be
- 3:09:13cool, it's just no one uses actual DVDs as really anymore.
- 3:09:18You actually want it on a DVD. That would be so much cool.
- 3:09:21You could. Make a couple copies.
- 3:09:22Friends and family copy. Yeah, I don't know.
- 3:09:24I think something that would be cool but.
- 3:09:27Yeah, Eddie's gonna make a production team and.
- 3:09:30Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, We have the funds for that.
- 3:09:32But no, that was cool. The Japan thing was kind of
- 3:09:36funny when Reese was like, yeah, I don't know.
- 3:09:38It was all right. Yeah, he's like Europe was way
- 3:09:40better. He.
- 3:09:40Started off with like, yeah, it was all right.
- 3:09:42And I was like, oh, I guess it wasn't that crazy.
- 3:09:44And then they talk about the event and I'm like, this is the
- 3:09:46craziest fucking event ever. Yeah.
- 3:09:48All right. Well anyway, if you're hearing
- 3:09:52this podcast right now, that means there's one or possibly
- 3:09:57two days left in the year and we have a raffle going on right now
- 3:10:00on our website to win $1000. Who came up with this idea?
- 3:10:05I don't know cuz it wasn't me. It was you.
- 3:10:07Was it me? Yes.
- 3:10:08Was I high because? You finalize everything in this
- 3:10:11building that's a. Lot of money, dude like I don't
- 3:10:16I don't know, but anyway I'm. Pretty sure you walked into this
- 3:10:18room and said Eddie fuck it, $1000 gift card, something like
- 3:10:21that. I'm pretty sure I.
- 3:10:23Don't know if that sounds accurate.
- 3:10:25Eddie's laughing. I don't know if that's real, but
- 3:10:28we'll go with it, Yeah. So if you guys want to win a
- 3:10:31chance to win $1000 that you can redeem on services or parts on
- 3:10:35our website, all you have to do is spend $5 on
- 3:10:39factionmotorsports.com and you will be automatically entered to
- 3:10:42win the raffle. No, I was thinking at the same
- 3:10:48time because Eddie, you also got other things too.
- 3:10:51Like once you go to check out, it'll say other.
- 3:10:53Options, right? Yeah, there's little chances for
- 3:10:55bonus entries if you follow us on Instagram.
- 3:10:58Subscribe to the YouTube. And we're pretty legit.
- 3:11:01Yeah, it gives you a couple 5-10 entries I believe or something.
- 3:11:03Wow, it's like extra bonus points if you just follow the
- 3:11:06Instagram, subscribe to the YouTube maybe.
- 3:11:08Is that a thing, Eddie? Wow, honey, honey.
- 3:11:12Yeah, but also if you buy Faction Motorsports products you
- 3:11:16get double entries. So we will be doing this again
- 3:11:19next year, unfortunately for me. So we will be giving away more
- 3:11:22shit every single month. But this is the craziest 1 and
- 3:11:27we're going. To have to up the ante.
- 3:11:28I fucking hope not. You heard it here first, folks.
- 3:11:31We're up in the ante. All right, well, two more days
- 3:11:34of getting into that raffle. We'll be announcing the winner
- 3:11:36next week. Yes, and be sure, like we said,
- 3:11:41go on our website, factionmotorsports.com.
- 3:11:43We have an assortment of parts, performance parts on the
- 3:11:46website, a whole huge catalog of OEM Nissan parts that you can
- 3:11:50browse and purchase when you're trying to rebuild these old
- 3:11:53hunks of junk. Yeah, people will really be
- 3:11:55buying $12.00 clips and shit on a yeah.
- 3:11:58Somebody you could just pop in, buy a couple VIN number plate
- 3:12:01clips. Oh yeah.
- 3:12:02And there you go. There's two entries right there.
- 3:12:05We also have an assortment of Origin Lab Arrow still in stock
- 3:12:10available to order through the website.
- 3:12:14Yeah. So I'll take advantage of that.
- 3:12:18If you're ordering stuff on our website and you know about this
- 3:12:20raffle, you should probably just be ordering some stickers at the
- 3:12:22same time because I. Mean it gets a little boost.
- 3:12:24You'll get double entries right automatically.
- 3:12:26Like if you're ordering a clip, you should probably just order a
- 3:12:29sticker. That way, boom yeah, boom little
- 3:12:31double entry. Because all fashion motorsport
- 3:12:33branded products are worth double.
- 3:12:36I'm not a gambling man, but if I was.
- 3:12:39Hey. I'd be doing something like
- 3:12:40that. Tell me about it.
- 3:12:42Yeah, so. But hey guys, if you can't
- 3:12:45afford that, a firm's got your back.
- 3:12:47We got a firm on the website too.
- 3:12:49So yeah, a firm, it's basically basically a credit card at this
- 3:12:54point, but if you can't afford something, you can affirm it on
- 3:12:57our website during checkout and that will allow you to pay in
- 3:13:01installments. So if you need that body kit
- 3:13:02right now and you can't afford it, just use affirm on checkout.
- 3:13:09As far as the shop goes, man, lately I there's been a decent
- 3:13:12amount of work in here. Thank God for December, but it's
- 3:13:14getting to the slow season. So if you guys have any cars you
- 3:13:17want to bring in here, that would really help us out.
- 3:13:20January and February are the slowest months pretty much in
- 3:13:24the automotive industry as a whole, but definitely the
- 3:13:27performance industry. So if you guys got daily
- 3:13:31drivers, if you're local to us, if you want us to, you know,
- 3:13:34install a turbo kit or something, that'd be great.
- 3:13:37Yeah, hit us up. It's going to be.
- 3:13:39Guys support, support the small businesses.

- 3:15:21Patreon. Yo what if we made Patreon merch
- 3:15:25only? Merch that says members only?
- 3:15:26Oh. God, why do you even have to say
- 3:15:28that? Oh talk to them.
- 3:15:31Only for the high tier members. Well that's the thing, we got 3
- 3:15:36tiers and the high tier gets you merch.
- 3:15:38Yeah. We haven't talked about members
- 3:15:40only merch yet, but maybe, you know, maybe one day, maybe

- 3:16:05Ramstead, we got Limitless, we got AG One.
- 3:16:08This is a good lineup. Yeah, without the support of
- 3:16:11these companies, it'd be pretty tough to make this podcast go.
- 3:16:15Or make it make sense while we're doing it.
- 3:16:17Yeah, yeah, Because we would just be sitting here every night
- 3:16:19and be like, is someone going to give us money or are we just
- 3:16:24going to keep talking about shit for for no reason?
- 3:16:27Yeah. But yeah, no E coaster school
