driver, East Coast Drift School is also the place where you can
1:10
get some extra seat time. Chris allows private track time
1:13
with no instructing as well so that you can get some test and
1:15
tune runs in before that big event or competition you have
1:18
coming up. Instead of spending the night

This podcast is also sponsored by Automotive Specialty Wraps.
1:40
Looking to have your car ceramic coated or wrapped?
1:42
Look no further than Automotive Specialty Wraps.
1:45
ASW is a company specializing in paint protection, film vehicle
1:49
wraps, ceramic coatings, and window tinting.
1:51
Owned and operated by car enthusiasts and Drifters, their
1:54
technicians have over 10 years of experience in the industry.
1:57
They are located right off of Route 208 in Fairlawn, New
1:59
Jersey. Other than window tinting, which
2:01
is something we all need at some point, it was the ceramic
2:04
coating that really caught my attention back when they reached
2:06
out to us. Basically gives your cars paint
2:08
extra UV protection while also making it shine.
2:11
Wax only lasts a couple weeks at most, but ceramic coating lasts
2:15
for a year or even longer. Honestly, this stuff is like
2:18
witchcraft to me. Julian came down here one day to
2:20
explain how it works and how it compares to wax and I was pretty
2:23
stunned. They perform a full two stage
2:25
Polish to the car beforehand just to make sure it's in
2:28
perfect condition before applying the coating.
2:30
As mentioned, they also offer window tinting and paint
2:33
protection film installations. Now everyone knows what window
2:36
tinting is, but these guys offer carbon or ceramic window
2:40
tinting. Depending on your goals with the
2:41
vehicle, Paint protection film or PPF is a great idea for those
2:45
new vehicle owners that don't want to watch investment get
2:48
littered with rock shifts. Also keep in mind they are
2:50
capable of getting liveries designed and installed as well
2:53
as full vehicle wraps. From protecting your tow rigs
2:56
exterior to full livery installations on your drift car,
2:59
they have you covered. You can contact them over at
3:02
automotive specialtywraps.com and make sure they give them a
3:04
follow on Instagram at Automotive Specialty Wraps.

5:31
bullshit and talk about everything yeah, which a lot of
5:34
that happened already before we went on but yeah, what was that
5:38
one thing I wanted to talk about though, Oh, every time I go to
5:41
Freedom to drop a car because Andy tunes there so we bring a
5:44
lot of cars there to get tuned. Yeah, I, I forgot to I guess
5:47
mention that, but yeah, Andy tunes at Freedom Motorsports.
5:50
Well, yeah, he's mobile now, but he's like most that's like his
5:53
home base. I would say so.
5:54
But dude, every time I go there, I'm like, Pennsylvania is not
5:57
that bad. And then I start driving there
5:59
and I'm like, you just experienced it coming here.
6:01
So yeah, you're just like, fuck, man.
6:03
This is a lot further than I thought it would be.
6:06
Like, is it? Was it 2 1/2 hours?
6:07
Yeah, yeah, it's and traffic is not fun, Yeah.
6:11
Especially on the Turnpike. The Turnpike is crazy.
6:14
But yeah, then you're on the Pennsylvania Turnpike and shit
6:17

6:19
tolls. Well, now, now I feel bad that
6:22
Tony is here. So do I.
6:23
Yeah, I feel bad too. Yeah.
6:26
Shit, you can have an extra beer if you want.
6:31
Thank you, thank you. I'm I'm I I like having other

6:43
OK, wait, wait, look how happy. Tony looks though.
6:44
Just just just just just just right off the bat.
6:46
Look how happy Tony looks. I know he looks happy, he's
6:48
pretty happy. I can't relate.
6:50
That's like, that's like if we brought Chris in here and you
6:54
worked today. Did you work today?
6:55
You came from work if we brought Chris in here after work.
6:58
Chris looks miserable. Yeah, like, I don't know, that's
7:02
a Chris thing. No.
7:04
What? He just looks miserable.
7:06
No, not all the time. I don't know.
7:08
I've seen Chris pretty fucking happy.
7:09
Malcolm, check in. I plead the 5th.
7:14
Yeah, I don't know. When you're working on cars all
7:16
day, it's like, I don't know, you tell us, Tony doesn't kind
7:19
of get to you like. Yeah, it's like we're all
7:23
glutton for punishment. I go home and work more after
7:26
work so it's. Do you have a?
7:28
Do you have your car at home or do you have it at the shop?
7:31
Right now my car's at the shop, the home garage is storing the
7:34
RX7 and my side by side that's fully built with a turbo.
7:38
What the fuck yo, we were going to have a lot of questions.
7:42
It's pretty retarded. You have a side by side that's
7:45
built up. Yeah, it makes 300 wheel.
7:49
Do you have photos of this online?
7:51
Oh yeah. Dude, dude.
7:52
OK, so one time when when me and Johnny were in or when me and
7:55
Johnny Minako, one of our favorite guests to have on here.
7:58
For now, we'll see Johnny, you could we could we could see if
8:01
you're about to be another favorite on here.
8:03
Oh my gosh, dude. You.
8:04
Might be a favorite guest on Yo you need.
8:07
To chill out bro. And it's it's got a clutch pedal
8:10
and a sequential box. Holy shit.
8:15
What have you put like I'm sure you've thought about, I'm sure
8:18
you've thought about this, but what if you put tires on it?
8:22
Oh yeah, I was going to make 5 by 114 wheel adapters and put my
8:25
T ES on it. It would drop it because it's
8:28
got full fox coil overs on it so you can just slam it.
8:33
I thought about it. Wait, OK, where are you?
8:35
Yeah, I'm at our friend's house, Rick's.
8:38
Oh, this sounds. Oh yeah, it's a three cylinder.
8:42
Oh my God. This is not your friend's house,
8:50
bro. Yeah, this is where we go on
8:52
Saturdays and Sundays. Sick this is.
8:56
Yeah, dude, this is not. This is where Rich and Kat got
8:59
married. Oh really?
9:00
Yeah. See, this is a Pennsylvania Life
9:02
car. Yeah, wow, I need to move.
9:04
Yeah, Jersey's not like. This I don't think they're going
9:06
to care about. If I was painting cars there
9:07
when Tony's fucking. Doing not, you can do whatever
9:10
you want. Oh my.
9:11
Bruh. Yeah, dude, it rips.
9:13
Yeah, yeah, I would say. So Oh my God.
9:16
Bruh. Rally.
9:16
Oh yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
9:18
Yeah, yeah. And then it goes also in creeks.
9:20
Yeah, dude, that's sick. Oh, you got a helmet?
9:23
I'm I'm most. Impressed by I'm most impressed
9:25
by this property. Yeah, it's it's a beautiful
9:28
property. It's called Brandywine
9:29
Outfitters and. Coatesville, I believe it is.
9:35
God damn bro. OK so how many CC I see?
9:37
It says. It's 1000 CCS.
9:39
OK, so it's a liter bike probably.
9:41
It's basically like a street bike engine.
9:44
It's made by Yamaha. It like I said, it's got a
9:48
sequential gearbox in it, but with a clutch pedal.
9:51
With a clutch pedal it's got 5 speeds.
9:55
It's tuned with the dyno jet, it's got ID 1050CC injectors,
9:59
it's got a Garrett with AT25 on it is.
10:03
There a market for people who make it this fast?
10:06
Probably. I'm sure there's probably
10:08
somebody out there with a crazy. Stuff is big in like the desert,
10:11
right? Yeah, yeah, We run them at
10:13
Hatfield McCoy in the trail system down there a lot too.
10:17
Yeah, I see people like riding these in in like Arizona and
10:20
dunes and shit, which is kind of crazy.
10:23
Yeah, I would like to put some paddles on it.
10:25
We used to go down every New Year's Eve to a buddy's place in
10:28
Texas and he it's called the Ranch 74.
10:31
And we'd race, you know, a bunch of these things.
10:33
All of us chased, chased by a helicopter and shit dude like
10:37
the best New Year's party on on the planet.
10:40
Well, that sounds pretty sick. One time I sat around a coffee
10:43
table with my family at a. You couldn't pay me to get in
10:46
the passenger seat, by the way. I would never imagine.
10:49
My wife, my wife gets in that thing and hangs off the side of
10:52
mountains. I don't know how she does.
10:53
It I would, yeah. That's crazy.
10:55
I would need a seesaw. You have a helmet on.
10:57
I would need a helmet and the fact that there's a cage and
10:59
I'll look at the cage. I.
11:00
Love how the tab looks like it's off of a gixter or something.
11:03
It does look like it's. Off of a red line's at 11,000
11:05
RPMS, 11,000 RPM. 11,000 RPM 1000.
11:11
So good. It's like an off road drift car.
11:14
So this is what you've been? Two wheel, 2 wheel and all-wheel
11:16
drive. We ran into one of those on the
11:20
street elsewhere, me and Johnny. But as I was mentioning earlier,
11:24
when we were coming home from drip out Drift Appalachia, we
11:27
were at a Wendy's and this dude pulled up with one and it would
11:31
had a plate on it. Yeah.
11:32
So I maybe the rules are a little different down there.
11:35
But also one time, and this might have been the, the, the
11:39
beer talking at that hour, but one time I was at Morristown.
11:42
I could have sworn, I could have sworn, I saw side by side on the
11:46
road plated. Maybe.
11:48
On the road, right? Just drive.
11:50
I don't know well mine mine is legal.
11:52
You can drive it. On the yeah, you register it in
11:54
South Dakota. You you send your title to South
11:57
Dakota, you do the paperwork, they send you back a a plate and
12:02
you put turn signals and shit on it.
12:03
I hell, I took that thing out on the street, got pulled over by a
12:07
cop. There was a snowstorm.
12:09
Pennsylvania get pulled over by a cop because I was mobbing past
12:12
people like just, you know, they're going like 5 miles an
12:14
hour and I'm doing like 80 it's like a big rooster tail of snow
12:19
behind me. So the cops get called they pull
12:22
me over and they're like hey, like what what is this?
12:25
I go here's my insurance and registration officer it's.
12:27
Just a vehicle. And he goes back to his car and
12:29
he's like, he calls his Sergeant.
12:31
He's like, I don't know what to do with this thing.
12:32
Like it's a clearly it's an off road vehicle, but it's
12:35
registered as a as a car and he's like, he comes up to the
12:40
window and he goes, you can't drive this on the street.
12:42
I go, what, what do you mean? If I had a beach house in New
12:44
Jersey and I've registered my car to that and I drove it to
12:47
Pennsylvania saying I can't drive my my New Jersey car into
12:50
Pennsylvania. This is the same thing.
12:51
I have a house in South Dakota guy like give and he just called
12:56
a supervisor like, Hey, have a good day.
12:58
Can't. Nothing you can't.
12:59
Nothing I can do about it. Imagine if you didn't argue that
13:02
though, like, and, and you just sat there and you're like, yeah,
13:05
OK, I guess. And then they tow it.
13:07
Yeah, on no grounds. No grounds, just 'cause he said
13:10
it wasn't allowed, but holy. Hell, yo, Tony's fucking.
13:14
Dink. Yo, because OK, me and Johnny
13:18
thought that this guy was bullshitting us when he was
13:21
like, I got an upgraded turbo in here, but like fucking if Johnny
13:26
was here, he'd confirm this. That's how he talked to us.
13:28
They're not usually turbocharged, are they?
13:30
Are they? No.
13:31
Oh, we built that kit. I didn't.
13:34
Know that this other guy had one that was turbo two and he was
13:37
like I had this baby up to 130 and then Johnny told me he's
13:43
like. Yo, this guy had it up to one.
13:44
20 And then the guy had to stop me.
13:46
Or stop Johnny, he was like no vice versa 30. 130 Bab like it
13:50
was scary. I thought it was bullshit, but
13:52
now apparently not. Was it Kentucky?
13:54
Where were you? Yeah, right.
13:58
I thought it was West Virginia. We were on my way home already.
14:01
But yeah, he was saying some really other scary shit like he
14:04
would. He was just telling us like.
14:07
The law. Don't control us over here, Bob.
14:10
Like I'm like, the cops don't run this, Bob.
14:12
I'm like, OK, Johnny, get in the car.
14:19
That's cool though. Damn, So what?
14:20
What prompted you to buy that? That's kind of like.
14:23
Well, a good friend of mine, Jason Vaughn and myself and
14:29
Jason Cronkley and all have side by sides and we go riding
14:32
together and. You're peer pressured.
14:35
Yeah, pretty much My my friends did it and then we had to do it.
14:38
And then who was the first one? Jason.
14:43
I believe it was. Well, Jason, this is all your
14:45
fault. Yeah.
14:46
I. Think it was Jason.
14:48
Now was his I think also. J Rs was probably the second.
14:52
They're all but Jr. Had a a Polaris 800 with 1000 CC
14:56
Busa motor in it and this thing was nutty so.
14:59
Wait, wait, wait. It's it's a swap.
15:01
Yeah. You got to swap in these things.
15:02
Yeah, dude, what the fuck? Yeah, dude, I.
15:06
Didn't know this I. Just stuck on 300 horsepower
15:09
11,000 RPM 3 cylinder. 3 cylinder it sounds.
15:12
Amazing. Fuck it sounds.
15:14
Has a tile blow valve tile wastegate.
15:16
Yeah, it's dope. Yeah, it Tony loves.
15:19
It I'm not going to get into this because I don't want.
15:21
To it's I I don't know. Yeah, I'm sure it's sick.
15:25
It's dude, it's got a lot of OK off the rip.
15:28
It's got a lot of tech. Like it's has a sequential
15:32
trans. So it has navigation less GPS.
15:35
The guy The guy put a stereo in his.
15:38
That's the. Apocalypse of vehicle right
15:39
there. No, no way.
15:41
No kind. Of there's no glass.
15:44
We're a fab shop. We can put some guys.
15:46
Yeah, yeah, that's true. There isn't much that you guys
15:48
don't. And now I guess that could segue
15:50
into you guys's shop and stuff because what I saw at the shop
15:54
there was like one of every genre of vehicle.
15:59
I was like, what the fuck? They don't have like a now
16:03
Frankie would turn a lot of those away just 'cause they
16:05
don't fit. In no I wouldn't.
16:08
Some of the shit dude, it was. 1968 Volvo isn't up your hour,
16:11
dog. Dude, it was that way it.
16:13
Was so cool. It was so.
16:14
Changed my opinion. I probably would turn that way.
16:16
But The thing is, they're also a fab shop, so I feel like there's
16:21
a lot of work that can be taken in when you're a fab shop
16:24
because you can just metal's metal, you know, you can like
16:27
make something work with when you're working on specific
16:29
engines and shit. Dude, I'm not digging into a
16:31
Volvo. Metal's metal, bro, no.
16:34
No, you can get your head gasket done on your Volvo somewhere.
16:37
Yeah, like but we will do a cage to protect you in a Baja race in
16:41
Mexico. Sure.
16:42
Is that really what? He was about to ask, Is that
16:44
what? He, yeah, that's what he's
16:45
doing, that thing, yeah. Bro what the fuck?
16:47
And he's like 72. Oh.
16:50
Yeah. He's gonna get it.
16:51
Yeah, dude, that gives. 36 hours of ripping in the desert and a a
16:56
car that was like 400 of them were made.
16:58
How many cialises does that guy have to take?
17:01
Jesus. Christ, I don't think my my
17:04
heart at 72 is going to pump that hard.
17:06
That's just going to be. Sitting in the car like fucking.
17:09
How do you find you guys? Is he living near you?
17:11
He actually so I I drive on an endurance Volvo team.
17:16
He owns a couple of Volvo dealers in the area.
17:18
This is getting. Crazy.
17:19
I'm sorry, what? Yeah, I'm.
17:20
Actually, I'm actually the slow guy on the team.
17:23
OK. These these old dudes smoke me
17:24
dude, because I about a year or two ago I started driving this.
17:31
It's a 740 Volvo. Right.
17:33
You got to bring a photo of this up, man.
17:34
Oh yeah, I know. No.
17:35
I don't know Malvo knows what that is, no.
17:37
No, no, just take a stock photo. I want a stock photo. 740 wagon
17:40
or sedan? Sedan.
17:41
Oh yeah, Malcolm knows exactly. I don't know shit about Volvos.
17:45
Me and Malcolm watch this guy drifts and lifts and we fucking
17:48
just. He loves Volvos.
17:50
OK, well then you're going to love this because it's got AG
17:52
series Garrett on it. This with the normal, with the,
17:56
with the with the. Red.
17:57
No, it's older than that. With a.
17:59
No, no, it's newer. No, it's older.
18:01
Oh fuck, what is that thing? Type in 89.
18:05
Fuck it, go, go down a day, yeah?
18:09
No. Older than that.
18:11
Bro maybe 91. First of all, all.
18:13
These, yeah, yeah, this is what it looks like, yeah.
18:17
Yeah, dude, yo, it's, it's. Gnarly though we ran a an
18:22
endurance race at Mid Ohio. We were drivers were two hour
18:27
stints and I went out there drifting every corner and these
18:33
these people are like. Dude, stay on the fucking track.
18:36
Like it's drifting was drifting probably doesn't.
18:39
Help because it's rear wheel drive and it's got an LSD.
18:40
It's like real, you know, I I'm going in this corner at 102
18:43
hundred mile an hour, like as fast as this thing will go top
18:45
down and then I just Kick It Out and I'm now I'm sliding, I'm
18:49
having fun, but the car is just slow.
18:52
Yeah, it's super slow. And couple times I flew off.
18:55
Fuck, did you get into that? They need another driver and we
19:00
built a turbo kit for it. One of the drivers is good
19:03
friends of our family and they used to race Lemons.
19:07
So then they stopped racing Lemons and then built this Volvo
19:12
to compete in American AER American Endurance racing.
19:16
OK, that. Sounds nuts it kind.
19:18
Of sounds fun. It's.
19:19
Dude. It.
19:19
Is it was a humbling experience for sure, because I've only ever
19:23
drifted. So it took me a couple of
19:28
sessions to get faster. I got my times up to where they
19:30
were at, but they've been racing that car for 10 years.
19:34
Like they knew how to handle that thing.
19:36
I I was still trying to find grip in it.
19:39
And yeah. What's the surface?
19:41
It's all sand. It's all sand and shit like.
19:44
No, it's mid. Ohio is a racetrack.
19:46
Oh, it's. Oh, OK, wait, Yeah, well.
19:48
Well, this the 7:40, the one where we raced in American
19:51
Endurance, The guy that owns the other one is the owner of that
19:55
cartoon. So he owns both, but he's racing
19:58
that one. We're not going with him on that
20:00
one, but he racing. This thing on that track, yeah.
20:04
Dude, I came around this, I came around the this turn and I'm off
20:08
track on throttle and there is dirt just flying off and I got a
20:12
grin on my. Face from ear to ear, dude.
20:14
And and they're like, you can't see everybody passing me right?
20:17
And I'm off the track just bobbing and I come back on.
20:20
I bring half the dirt with me, so we go to the drivers meeting
20:23
the next day and then the drivers meeting, they're like
20:25
fucking drifter who let you in. So I took why I took some shit.
20:31
Because they didn't. Do they know you?
20:32
No, they it was all in good fun. It was all in good fun because I
20:36
was slow, like my time was not very fast.
20:39
Like track owners always get upset with the dirt though.
20:42
Like legit track owners. I mean, I'm.
20:44
Sure, they were happy with Tony that day, Yeah.
20:47
They're not used to Drifters. They're like what the fuck are
20:50
they doing in the track? No, I'm just picturing the I'm
20:54
featuring a Garrett G series on a red block, which I think
20:59
that's what that. It was but the single.
21:01
Cam still. They took it the single Cam off,
21:03
put a twin Cam hat on it. Oh what?
21:05
Yes, they put the turbo hat on it.
21:07
Probably sounds. Just so impressed that Carl
21:09
knows anything about a Volvo. I am your.
21:12
One employee literally knows about Volvo's too.
21:14
I know that much, brother. He.
21:16
Doesn't know what a red block is now.
21:17
But we a red block is a, it's a, it's a.
21:20
It's literally just a that's red.
21:23
Andy just tuned it. It's already see, you bastard.
21:25
Wait. Shut.
21:27
The fuck up. You could put a.
21:29
You could put a. Let me see.
21:31
You know, one of the guys on the team wired the entire car and.
21:33
What if you could put a link on it?
21:35
You probably could I. Fucking bet you can.
21:37
Yeah, you probably bet anything else as.
21:39
Long as you can build a harness for it, I.
21:41
Wonder if you could put a power of C on it, no?
21:46
Dude those volvos are cool. My my neighbor.
21:49
My direct neighbor has three of them.
21:56
I don't get it bro I I I know people are obsessed with these
21:58
cars though. And.
22:01
They're and they're no, no, no you, you know somebody is, is is
22:04
in it right because he has he has one wagon green 740.
22:09
He has a white 1 green 740, both turbos.
22:12
And then his wife had come out one day.
22:15
I, I like talk to her because the guy who owns him is, is, I,
22:19
I believe he's sick at the moment.
22:20
And I just wanted to make sure that she has my number or
22:23
whatever in case they need help or something 'cause it's just
22:26
them too. So she was talking to me and
22:28
she's like, I'm like, hey Jocelyn, I'm like totally into
22:32
these Volvos right now. Like can I see like, like do
22:36
you, would you guys mind if I just walked over there one day
22:38
and she was like. Why do you like this car?
22:41
These cars are so bad. My husband has a third one
22:45
inside. I'm like whoa, what does the one
22:48
inside look like? And ever since then, like I feel
22:50
like I haven't circled back on it, mainly because they're
22:53
running into a bunch of other stuff and I don't want to be
22:55
like in their business, but I want to see what that one in the
22:59
garage he's got. Volvos, I don't know.
23:01
It's never opened that garage. I hope he's doing OK, but.
23:06
Fuck. Maybe you'll get them one day.
23:08
Three. No, I don't.
23:09
I'm OK. I just, I like them.
23:11
They're cool. You ever close the dude the door
23:13
on that? When you close it, I could, I
23:15
could imagine it already. It's probably like not it's
23:17
probably like a Porsche or something.
23:18
It's like, probably notchy. Yeah.
23:21
Oh yeah dude, door sound is one of my favorite things.
23:25
I don't like. Big shoe box.
23:27
Yeah, it's huge. That's a huge shoe box and they
23:29
got the seat in the back boop that flips around.
23:32
Perfect for rollers. I.
23:33
Feel like Jesse, is that one of those things?
23:35
Why? Why is that the most perfect
23:37
Jesse? Right, that's what I'm thinking
23:39
too. I don't know if he did, but.
23:41
Jesse, you could fit so many snowboards in the back, dude.
23:44
Not watching this shit. OK, so you so you endurance race
23:50
Volvos? Yeah, kinda.
23:53
I've done it a couple of times. Yeah, you do it.
23:55
You. You.
23:56
Yeah, you, you endurance. Race Volvo.
23:57
I signed up, yeah. But The thing is just like, I
24:00
don't really know any other people who do that.
24:02
So to me, you're you're him now. You're the Volvo.
24:06
Endurance guy and you guys fully built that car or you?
24:09
Guys, no, no, no, the, the the guys did OK.
24:12
Yeah. So the deal is the owner of the
24:15
Volvo dealerships. He's like you guys can, well,
24:18
I'll pay for everything. The it's $2500 to enter the
24:22
race, so it's not cheap. He pays for the entry fees.
24:26
He pays for hotels and food and gas.
24:28
Did you say the Volvo dealership?
24:30
Yeah, he owns a couple of them. That's sick, yo.
24:33
How do we, how, how, how do we bust into that space, Brad?
24:38
Well, Nissan, I'll do nothing like that.
24:42
That's cool, yeah. I mean a a Datsun, that would be
24:45
rad. Yeah, we did an RB25 Dots in one
24:48
time and it was probably the scariest car I've been in.
24:50
Yeah, that sounds pretty crazy. It like 600 horsepower and the
24:54
thing felt like it was getting ready to take off the ground.
24:56
Dude when when I would drive my dad had an S30 as well but I I
25:01
don't really know what the IT was.
25:04
It was AL series motor still and if you're pulling on the highway
25:07
it sounds sick. And then a a Honda Odyssey will
25:10
come still in the middle lane and just blow your doors off and
25:14
they're like, oh, OK. But one thing I did notice is
25:18
that the hood is so long that I did get that feeling like when
25:22
you were accelerating, 'cause I feel like the motor is just like
25:26
coming up. So I bet with an RB in there.
25:29
With 600 horseback. Right now, you're probably
25:32
fucking. I saw some other stuff on your
25:34
Instagram the other day. You'll be working on RB.
25:36
You're an RB fan. No, take it like loosely term.
25:41
I know you're a Jay-Z guy. Yeah, I I'm a fan of the RV when
25:44
they work OK. OK, OK.
25:46
RV stands for Running Broke. Oh, cost a lot of money, yeah.
25:51
But why do you? OK, so why do you still love?
25:53
It though this sounds good, it's.
25:55
Like. One thing.
25:57
It's like one thing. Sounds better than a Jay-Z.
25:59
An RV 25 an. RV 25 argue that 1.5 Jay-Z
26:06
rivals it. I don't know there is.
26:09
RB26 And I mean, I guess just in general RB just has like this
26:14
like different like it doesn't. Sound like a vacuum cleaner?
26:18
Like a Jay-Z. OK, well the Jay-Z sounds so
26:21
good. He's got a Jay-Z.
26:23
He just got a one JVV. Team and I won't even really be
26:26
driving it too much 'cause I feel like it's like too good for
26:28
me I'm like, oh, I'm gonna be like let me save it but.
26:31
You're still saying the RV sounds better?
26:32
It sounds good, the RB26 sound or just 'cause I watch watched a
26:36
video of a GTR doing like a all-wheel launch the other day
26:38
and I was like, that's the sound.
26:40
Yeah, it's the only thing that's the only sound I like out of an
26:42
RB. But Dan Koziel the the skinny D
26:48
with the IS the IS that you like the not.
26:50
It's always got some suspect. The non chin, the non the non
26:54
chin one like his his IS looks the best.
26:58
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, the silver. One yeah, yeah.
27:00
So he posted something on his story the other day where an RV
27:03
25 comparing a Jay-Z, I believe it specifically was A1J, but the
27:11
the piston size and the stroke was like pretty close like
27:17
almost identical 86 for the piston and then the stroke was
27:20
like 70 something off by .1. So like.
27:26
Yeah, they're pretty close. Yeah, I'd rather have the.
27:29
Ones all in the cylinder. Head.
27:30
I would rather have the one J the more fucking reliable one.
27:35
Yeah, I get. I get it.
27:36
I get. It me how many?
27:37
Gauges I have in my car right now. 1-2 OK yeah, if you had
27:42
ARB. If I had an RB guess how many
27:43
I'd have 90. And it wouldn't help.
27:48
I just like. I don't know.
27:50
There's just something about the Jay-Z that for some reason, when
27:52
I'm in that versus when I'm in an RB, an RB, I'm like.
27:56
I mean, I will say every RV that I ever drifted was broken or
27:58
breaking at the moment. That's horrible, Yeah.
28:01
So then how could you? And every Jay-Z I've drifted,
28:05
I'm not gonna say they're all perfect, but they all they.
28:07
Were working. They all fucking work.
28:09
Yeah, yeah. But I don't know, I still like R
28:13
VS more. You guys getting any weird power
28:16
plants over there? Guys, got anything weird?
28:19
No, not really. Like no one's putting like I.
28:21
I feel like that's bullshit. What I see?
28:22
No, no, no, no. Don't think it's weird.
28:24
No, no, they. They had a VE over there.
28:27
Oh, we have a couple of those. What?
28:30
Yeah, dude, they. Do a lot of shit over there so.
28:34
Dude like crazy shit. Yeah.
28:36
Yeah, fuck. You need a new ramp though going
28:38
down to the the lower half of the shop.
28:40
Yeah, that's been there for a long time though.
28:42
I could tell the mental value. I could tell that Ramp is
28:44
staying. I don't even know the ramp
28:46
you're talking about. It's this little crappy wood
28:47
ramp that we literally roll nitrous tanks down.
28:50
Like full on a Dolly. Roll it down.
28:54
Dude, I saw the ramp and I was like, how is this?
28:57
Like it's like a beautiful VE build to my left and I'm walking
29:03
up this plate. It's sentimental value.
29:06
Yeah. Shit man.
29:08
Probably been there since the shop opens.
29:10
That was that was a cool property to see because you you
29:12
also share the space with like a a Hyundai.
29:17
Oh. Hyundai.
29:18
And he was telling. Me about that too.
29:19
Yep. Is it a Hyundai?
29:21
What's Genesis, dude? Literally they just specialize
29:23
in Hyundai Genesis. Yep.
29:24
There was like. Six of them crazy there.
29:26
Was like six of them there. Yeah, he does a good job.
29:28
He he's really done those things for years, programming ECU's and
29:33
selling parts. And so he does.
29:34
Tuning too. Yeah.
29:35
Oh, OK. What?
29:38
He must. He must do like remote tuning
29:39
too. No, there's another dyno.
29:41
Bro, I'm just. Like there's two Dinos on the
29:46
property I imagine. They're both running at the same
29:49
time. That's.
29:49
Like a that's like a shop opening up, like we only work on
29:51
1st Gen. FRSS and it's like, huh.
29:55
I mean, it's it's impressive to me like that he can actually
29:58
have a business run just one brand.
30:00
What? Did you both think of the
30:01
Genesis when it came out? I'm talking about the first one,
30:03
Malcolm. Do you want to pull up a photo?
30:05
The first Hyundai Genesis, I think it was like a 2000 and.
30:09
Was that front wheel drive? No, no, no, no.
30:11
It was a. It was a.
30:12
It was a. Oh, maybe I'm thinking of a.
30:14
Tiburon, the Tiburon. Yo the Tiburon and need for
30:18
speed underground two. Yeah, but it was front wheel.
30:19
But I'm talking about this thing.
30:20
Yeah. Oh yeah.
30:21
And it came with a six cylinder or a four-cylinder.
30:24
Turbo they came with both and when it came out OK, great
30:28
things about it. Rear wheel drive.
30:30
It's kind of heavy, I think from what I thought it was heavy and
30:33
it's and it's a not bad look. I like how it looks.
30:37
Yo, Reece Millen drove the shit out.
30:38
Of that thing, dude, yeah. See.
30:41
And Jay, the guy that has the space with me, he drifts one
30:45
too. His car is pretty gnarly.
30:47
Turbo Reece Millen, is it still a factory or is it still like a
30:51
Hyundai power plant? Yeah, yeah, he specializes in
30:54
the Hyundai, isn't it? Kind of Evo engine, is that no?
30:58
He's got a six cylinder twin drive. 10.
31:00
There. Yeah, that thing was gnarly.
31:02
The only cool genesis. OK, that actually looks sick.
31:05
But the click that I wanna see what engine it had in it.
31:08
I wanna see if they kept the. I forget.
31:10
Yo that shit looks like it was at Pike's Peak and shit.
31:12
This. Is like the last the last time
31:14
FD was cool, sorry. Well, that's.
31:16
When we were in it until. Julian, Yeah.
31:17
Exactly, dude. Like shit, was the C500
31:20
horsepower perfect? Yeah.
31:22
Really 2009? Perfect.
31:24
So is that the stock engine? I think it was the six cylinder,
31:30
I don't remember we right. There.
31:32
Six. Yeah, the six owner. 3.14 point
31:35
one Jesus with. An HKS trans.
31:39
Sequential transmission. Wow, it's obviously turboed.
31:43
Yo, that's the turbo I'm gonna run on the Jay-Z right there.
31:46
Turbo, the factory was not turboed.
31:48
It was AV6NA or the OR the four V 11.
31:51
Basically I got. To.
31:52
Drive. I got to drive one of them, a
31:54
friend of mine. Well now I don't I don't know
31:57
how he's doing, but my my friend in college had a 381 so like
32:02
that had like the Brembos and like it was fucking it sounded
32:06
like AAZ literally. Yeah, well, every every V6
32:09
sounds like. That the displacement's pretty
32:11
similar. Like, yeah, what are you gonna
32:12
do? Like, it's AV 6.
32:13
But like even when we were messing around in the parking
32:16
lots and shit like and I would clutch kick it, it just didn't
32:19
have. I had a 240 at that time.
32:22
Well, it's probably 'cause it weighed fucking 34. 100 lbs So
32:24
heavy. It was very, very heavy.
32:27
Car. And the tactileness of it like
32:30
the the interior fit finish like.
32:33
Oh shit, 'cause it was. Really bad.
32:35
Yeah. Yeah, but.
32:36
I don't know man, I don't know that car didn't do it for.
32:39
Me, but don't you? Reese Melon was that shit was.
32:41
Yeah, don't you? Think that since it has all of
32:44
those great ingredients for it that it was only inevitable that
32:47
somebody was going to specialize in it.
32:49
Tuning, modifying. I'm surprised that people.
32:51
Freeze them up, people don't drift them more.
32:54
Yeah, they did. They actually drive pretty good.
32:56
Yeah, we put a two. We didn't.
32:59
No, we didn't. Billy put a two day in one.
33:01
We tuned it. I took it around the block
33:04
couple times. Car was pretty nice.
33:06
Yeah. Yeah, and how tech can system
33:09
works with it? So you just literally tell the
33:10
computer it's a Hyundai, all the gauges and everything work.
33:14
Whoa, yeah, content gauges, air conditioning, everything works.
33:19
That's. Fucking awesome.
33:21
Yeah, with a Jay-Z swap. Oh, yeah, oh, oh, it's a Jay-Z
33:23
swap. Oh yeah, that what a what a what
33:25
a beautiful vehicle. It is it was it was great hell.
33:28
So I mean, if you Jay-Z swap them, which I'm just surprised
33:32
my neighbor hasn't yet. He he comes over, looks at them
33:35
all the time. He's like, oh man, I really like
33:37
these things. But, you know, I specialize in
33:39
the Hyundai, but I specialize he.
33:44
Knows we know. He knows where it's at.
33:47
He's like. But he actually got my first
33:50
competition S13, the right hand drive 2 tone one that was like
33:56
dead like I think. What do you mean by like we?
33:59
We crashed it a lot like it was like frame rails are pulling
34:05
apart like it was. It was pretty bad, but he's
34:08
bought the car. He got it.
34:10
I forget how it happened. Somebody left it at the shop
34:14
that owned it or Richie, something to do with Richie.
34:17
Richie had the car and took the motor out of it and then the car
34:21
ended up back at my place and I'm like, why does this car keep
34:24
fucking following me everywhere? Imagine Tony just walking into
34:29
work. With Why is this car still here?
34:32
I mean I drove it in DMCC years ago but.
34:36
Damn, I forgot about that. What the hell is DMCC?
34:38
That was a competition of. Yeah, Drift Mania, Canadian
34:41
Championship I. Forgot about that, hey.
34:44
Hey, what the fuck? What is DM?
34:47
And you competed in this? I only did once, but Matt did it
34:52
a bunch and we won like 3 championships there.
34:56
That's sick. Casual is y'all fucking.
34:59
I fucking love Tony Brown. I want to go back to you said
35:04
you guys did Formula Drift. Who?
35:06
Who was the driver? Matt Matt Walden was the driver.
35:10
I was his crew chief. Because we won.
35:12
We won all of, we want all of DMCC.
35:16
So then, you know, the next gradual step was to move up to
35:19
FD who he was kind of doing both.
35:21
There was more money to be made in Canada.
35:23
Like we're actually getting sponsors and people are paying
35:25
us back then. So like, holy shit.
35:28
Where's back then? Sorry like.
35:29
Like 2000 and seven, 2008. Holy shit Tony, you been in it
35:35

36:10
Probably he got. Fed up with it and just was
36:12
like, I'm done, yeah. And just wiped his hands with
36:15
it. Yeah, so.
36:16
Now, is this the same person? This is the same person I tuned

36:39

36:42
Bro. Dog.
36:43
I love that that car caught on fire a couple of times.
36:46
Yeah, I'm sure. It was not your fault.
36:47
Did it catch? On I think he won XDC a bunch of
36:49
times too, probably with that car.
36:51
That car was fucked. That's where I.
36:52
Remember that car was seeing at Raceway Park when I started?
36:55
Why do I feel? The first fucking so we got
36:58
given that car in 2008. It was a Nismo 350Z.
37:03
We. Put a we put a twin turbo kit on
37:05
it and wired in a fucking Haltech platinum and blew an
37:09
engine every event. I replaced seven or eight motors
37:12
that season and we begged Ryan Crower to get us a piston rod
37:17
combo, head combo and they're like we're working on it
37:19
development. We're working on it.
37:21
I think that might have been the first HRI, believe what you
37:24
know, is an O eight. Yeah.
37:28
And finally, Brian Crower got us a stroker and we built the
37:32
engine. It made like 800 horsepower and
37:34
lasted all year. All year?
37:37
Yeah, More than a year, I hope. Yeah, I think it lasted a couple
37:42
of times. The memory's only.
37:44
Only after he. Only after Tony's already put in
37:46
the labor for fucking. 77 motors shit so so you.
37:51
Guys and the turbo kit was for Ade so like I had to make it all
37:54
work 'cause. It was a brand new car it.
37:55
Was for Ade, right? Yeah, so we had to make it all
37:58
work for that car. What it what is, what does that
38:00
encompass? Really like the runners and shit
38:02
like. The just just the piping the the
38:05
header fit on OK. Actually, no, it didn't.
38:11
You know what I think we had to like drill it.
38:13
What turbo kit did you use? It was ATP power I think.
38:18
Dude, I remember I wanted, I wanted to build one of these
38:20
cars so bad and twin turbo it, but Gretty was the only kit I
38:23
wanted. And then they discontinued it
38:25
and I was like, all right, I'm kind of over it now.
38:27
I but I don't know that I know they just blow up, so I don't
38:30
know. I don't know why but the the
38:31
cars like ringing a weird bell for me where I'm like I feel
38:35
like I've seen it like before. Yeah, I mean, we started
38:38
drifting there like in the DG trials air days like long, long
38:42
time ago and drift out Wednesday and stuff was at you.
38:44
Probably saw this car, Carl, or you saw Ross.
38:47
Ross's Z 'cause I I sometimes I confuse.
38:50
This What did it? Did it get passed around?
38:52
Did it? Did it move hands?
38:53
Did it? After he sold it, I don't know
38:56
what happened to it. I like, I think it went to
38:58
Virginia. Too I.
39:00
Think it went to Virginia and then.
39:02
See, that car is cool. Man got dis dis dismantled.
39:05
CE28 on the fucking Formula D car bro.
39:10
What body kit is? That is that the.
39:12
That's a. That's a.
39:13
That everybody just should start doing just that.
39:16
All you have to do is just put this in.
39:17
With the weight it was such a great looking car.
39:20
The wing on there, Fuck yeah. Look at that Malcolm down in the
39:23
bottom right. Yes, I missed that track.
39:27
Now I I've seen, oh damn, I've seen people drifting at wall
39:30
lately. Is that like a thing that's
39:32
gonna happen? They're drifting.
39:33
Down at wall, I don't know. I drifted day last year.
39:36
No, no, no. I think that they're having like
39:38
a like drift events. Oh, that's cool.
39:42
Like a like. Gam at night?
39:44
Yeah, motherfucker. Dude, every it's.
39:47
Crazy lately. Do not disturb.
39:50
I block all of those numbers every time I get one no.
39:52
I don't know how to do that. You have to teach.
39:54
Show me how to do that. No, Frankie is going to make you
39:57
go to a website and go on a do not.
39:59
Call list or whatever. Settings.
40:03
Like. Oh my gosh, Malcolm, make sure
40:06
to get this clip of Frankie teaching somebody else how to do
40:10
something tech related right now.
40:13
Oh blocks blocked scam like. Do it every time.
40:17
By scammer. And they'll they'll start Mr. 21
40:20
Shorter, 3453364. Blow it up.
40:25
How dare you interrupt us, Pleasant?
40:28
OK, so let me bring this back. 2005 is when you open the shop
40:31
or is when you. Start No, I was, I worked for
40:33
him then the 2005 is when I I started drifting OK.
40:38
I built choice. I had a 180 that I built in a
40:40
parking lot of an apartment building. 6.
40:43
Sr. swapped even. The apartment.
40:46
Dude, I was getting threatening letters to get the fuck out
40:48
every day. I had coolers underneath it
40:52
collecting all the fluids as I pulled the blown up KA out of it
40:56
so it was pretty epic. That's perfect.
40:59
So I met Matt, like buying parts for it, and then I just started
41:04
going to club lose and then yeah, I'm still doing the same
41:07
fucking shit all these years later.
41:10
I know the viewers aren't going to get the feeling.
41:14
That. I just got but Tony's stare
41:17
between me and Frankie right now where he just said, yeah, I'm
41:20
still like. And I'm still doing this.
41:24
Yeah, that's how we all feel. But all right, So you worked for
41:27
Matt. Yeah, 'cause I remember he had a
41:28
he had a shop. What was it called?
41:31
Important intelligence. Yes, Important intelligence.
41:33
OK, I remember that. That's what you see on the Z.
41:36
That makes sense. OK, so you worked for him and
41:39
then you started your own shop. You were that guy.
41:40
Well, no, I went, I was, I was at there.
41:42
Then I went to MA for a few years and then I started my own
41:46
shop. Well, I worked in between at a
41:48
Corvette shop for a little while.
41:50
OK, Then I started my own shop. It's kind of like a play place
41:56
like 1 Bay to like, hey, this is what we're going to hang out and
41:59
do. Like Rich and Eric and my homies
42:01
want to go drifting. Maybe we'll make some money on
42:03
the side to pay the. That was the original idea.
42:05
Yeah. OK, Yeah, that's pretty we were
42:07
talking about earlier. I was like, that's exactly what
42:09
this. Was that's like kind of what the
42:11
fuck I'm doing right fucking now.
42:13
I mean, that's the best way to start a shop because you got all
42:15
your friends, you're all splitting it and then eventually
42:17
people start leaving and then hopefully by that time you got
42:20
some clientele. You just kind of.
42:22
Well, my wife found the place and then kind of made the name.
42:29
And then we're like, OK, well, we're just kind of like, we're
42:33
going to start a shop, but we're really not going to start a
42:35
shop. And then it was like.
42:38
Builds one of the most red beautiful.
42:40
Yeah, now we're now we're when we have a shop, honey.
42:45
And scammer gets. Scammed.
42:47
Realistically it wouldn't have happened without her 'cause
42:49
she's just the backbone that holds everything the fuck
42:51
together. I don't.
42:52
I wonder what I don't even know what to do with my hands.
42:54
What? What made her do that?
42:55
She just knew that you. She was just following my
42:58
passion, my dream. Just the fucking great woman,
43:01
you know? That's kind of amazing.
43:02
Yeah, I'm very, very lucky, you know that.
43:05
Yeah. Does she have somebody that yes,
43:08
she works for free, you know, for 10 fucking years works for
43:12
free and oh. To watch why we would watch
43:14
yourself like you're looking a little.
43:16
Does does all of our accounting? Does all the payroll, Does all
43:20
the books? Amazing.
43:21
Knock on fucking wood right now or you're sleeping on the couch.
43:26
That's amazing. Fuck.
43:29
Oh my gosh, man. That's sick shit, dude.
43:32
Well, dude, OK, one that's very fortunate of you.
43:35
Yeah, some of us, Frankie, me, you're an ass.
43:38
Lucky you don't have a wife or B or B.
43:42
We're fucked. Laundry on the floor.
43:45
Yeah, I gotta work on that. Oh God, I get yelled at that
43:47
constantly. Oh.
43:48
Dude, see. She's like, you can never pick
43:50
up anything. Just pick you you put your
43:53
deodorant up out of the closet. And you set it on the fucking
43:56
table. Just put it back.
44:01
That that just felt a little too personal.
44:05
I might have got yelled at about it this morning.
44:07
On the way. That makes sense.
44:10
I was like. Wiping before I got in the truck
44:12
Like Tony. You're deodorant.
44:17
Oh man. Hey, we all have the things
44:20
we're good at, and we have things we're not that good at,
44:21
yeah. So.
44:24
When I put my tools away, yeah. Dude, that's.
44:26
The main thing this is. I feel like this is this is
44:29
maybe some of y'all can relate but I organize the tools and the
44:34
garage a little bit more often than way by will then house then
44:38
that house. Yeah, way better.
44:40
Yeah, 100. Yeah, OK.
44:41
The tools cost way more. Oh.
44:43
Yeah, that too and like and then.
44:44
Fuck the clothes by Walmart. The tools.
44:46
Will also cause me frustration like 'cause then if I'm in the
44:50
garage OK. Spot.
44:55
Like where the hell is the 11 mil?
44:57
Yeah, like that, that and we're slowing.
45:00
Down though 'cause like I the other day I was working on a car
45:02
my everything's moved over now for from where it used to be and
45:05
I finally was working on a car and I was like, oh I can just
45:08
put everything right back after I touch it and I was like, this
45:11
will slow you down a decent amount but I.
45:12
Told you that. Yeah, the other day I was.
45:15
That was the day Frankie kept walking back and forth through
45:17
his box. And I'm like, why don't you just
45:18
grab everything? Do.
45:19
You know what that is? Do you know what?
45:21
I just want it away that I'm not.
45:25
Kaizen bro, that is not the Toyota way.
45:27
What is Kaizen? Lean.
45:29
You should have brought all your tools and everything you needed
45:32
to the spot so that you could work on it.
45:34
Boom, put all the tools back. Help me out here.
45:36
You don't know every fucking tool you're going to need as the
45:38
job you learn. As the job, not with these cars.
45:41
No, like, come on man. But I'll grab like I.
45:45
Get what you're saying? I'll, I'll, I try to do that
45:46
sometimes, but then there's always that one thing, right?
45:50
Actually, what am I talking about?
45:52
I have 92 Jay-Z there. I just bring all the same shit.
45:55
I grab. Balance Tool 12141722 Done.
46:00
Yeah, the. 22 is only just for the crank bully.
46:03
That's it. And, and ironically, that's like
46:07
the first thing you had to take off.
46:09
Here it really is. Just what, 8:10, 12/14/17?
46:12
That's it. You don't need a 20.
46:14
You take a whole 240 apart with those.
46:17
No 19. Oh, you mentioned 19.
46:19
You. Yeah, you do need a a 240.
46:21
Phil, you needed a 21 for something you.
46:23
Do I mean the axle? 32 is a 3230. 2 is what the.
46:29
Axle. Is it?
46:30
Yeah. I I got one of those, Yeah.
46:32
And I hope so. It's a fucking.
46:34
Full blown facility, Yeah, I only have enough.
46:36
Tools to take a 240 part. That's it.
46:39
Don't. Worry, that's it.
46:42
Holy crap. So recently we started working
46:44
on a Mustang and I I had to go buy a bunch of standard tools.
46:48
So now I am diverse. Yeah, see, I have the same
46:53
story, but it's with my Harley-Davidson.
46:54
Oh OK, I just got one last Friday and broke it the next
46:58
fucking day. What, you got a Harley last
47:00
week? Yeah, yeah, literally, literally
47:02
fucking broke it. What did you, what kind of, what
47:04
kind of Harley did you get? I got a road King.
47:07
Oh nice. You probably look so cool on
47:08
that dude, God damn. So load.
47:11
Yeah. Yeah, dog, I just got my riser
47:14
bars in. All right, cool man, Got.
47:16
Some white walls. So we did a, we did 145 miles on
47:20
Friday and then the next day we were going to this brewery out
47:24
in Kenneth Square. We get like one block from the
47:27
brewery and the bike's just shaking out of control.
47:29
I'm like, oh, fuck. And my wife's on, my wife's on
47:32
the back. My wife's on the back.
47:35
And I'm like, oh gosh. So I'm like, fuck, I don't know
47:37
anything about this. So my buddies, they leave us at
47:40
the bar obviously, and they go home, they get the trailer, they
47:42
come back, they put the bike in there, we go back to his house.
47:46
I don't know, I've got 2 garages in my shop and my home garage,
47:49
but we go to his house, dismantle the bike at his house,
47:52
right? So I.
47:54
Can't ever be happy about that. So we're like, OK, well,
47:58
something's wrong. Couldn't find anything loose.
48:00
It's missing a ton of spokes in the back wheel.
48:03
OK, so I bought some new tires and I'm like putting new
48:06
bearings in it. Yeah, what the fuck?
48:08
We did 130 mile an hour pool in it though.
48:10
So I'm like, did I blow out the bearings?
48:13
Yeah, maybe. I don't know.
48:13
I'm new to this Harley life dog. I'm somewhat new.
48:16
I don't really know, like yo. Well, I'm deep in it now, dog.

48:59
Yeah, we got to come by you though 'cause you guys got.
49:00
Over there they got. And and not for nothing and call
49:04
me a sucker for this shit, but like when, when we were going to
49:07
to freedom, we drove through some of the prettiest towns.
49:10
Shut the fuck up. Like it.
49:11
Like, no, no, no, no, no. They were old towns.
49:14
And on, on my little chop bro, I'd be fucking 50 miles an hour.
49:18
Yeah, I mean, there's definitely cool towns in Pennsylvania, but
49:20
I don't see any of them on the way.
49:21
To they're all old towns. No, no, no.
49:23
At least from my house I have to go.
49:25
Yeah, you went a different way. Did you go?
49:28
I know which way you went. Yeah, it was so nice, yes.
49:30
It was. Most of it is through Jersey.
49:32
It was beautiful, all the towns. All the towns he saw were
49:35
definitely. In Jersey they were all all the
49:36
towns were old as fuck and then all of a sudden, boom, a dyno.
49:40
Oh my God. Yeah, literally I'm.
49:43
Beard on the side of the road. I got so fed up.
49:46
Paying the fucking. Paying the fucking tolls for
49:49
going to your shop. I was like, fuck it, I'm taking
49:50
the other route. And that's when I learned about
49:53
a whole another section of New Jersey, which is probably the
49:55
way you went where I was like, what the fuck is this?
49:57
Like dude, it didn't even look like.
49:59
It's really old. It's really old.
50:00
Super old and everything's old and you cross the Delaware in
50:02
some weird. Section.
50:04
Yeah, it's, it's the Delaware River is you're crossing over it
50:08
on a single lane bridge. That's.
50:10
Cool. And we're towing Daryl's, towing
50:12
Chris's Sylvia across that bitch.
50:14
I'm glad you went that way. Yeah, I only went that way once.
50:16
It was awesome. It was awesome.
50:18
I love that shit. Yeah, it was.
50:19
Pretty you. I've been looking at the
50:21
architecture bro. I'm not.

50:39
That's pretty Old Town when you. Drive to the middle of the town
50:42
you're talking about. I don't know if it's is it his
50:43
town? It might be the one right over
50:46
it from him, but yeah, no, that town is old as.
50:49
Fuck trying to rip. Dude, you know George Washington
50:51
slept in every building in New Jersey so it doesn't matter.
50:53
Like either way it's going to be some there's going to be a sign
50:56
out from. What a fucking slut.
50:57
Yeah, every dude, every, Yeah, George, George Washington lived
51:00
here for, yeah, for what, a month?
51:02
He lived in every fucking house, literally, bro.
51:05
Every house in Bergen County he lived in.
51:09
No he did not. Literally, he was.
51:12
Squatting. If you live in a town in Bergen
51:15
County, George Washington slept somewhere and probably fucked
51:17
someone in that house. Jesus Christ.
51:20
Dude every every house. There's two in Hackensack,
51:23
there's fucking three in Northvale.
51:24
There's fucking every house bro. I don't know, the guy got around
51:28
and only a four year stretch. That was like eternity for them
51:33
back. Then I guess.
51:34
So you understand like he could have died.
51:36
I wonder where he got the teeth from during that time.
51:38
The wooden teeth. He would just take one from
51:40
everybody, just. Yeah.
51:44
Shit, dude. Well, yeah, we could do.
51:46
We could do that. We could write.
51:47
I have a, I have a Yamaha, so I didn't have to buy all of that
51:51
shit. My shit uses 14 17.
51:57
I have a 10. No, no.
52:01
But the I will say that's. The annoying thing about the
52:03
Harley it you'll, you'll be using standard and then metric
52:06
and then you're like. Really.
52:07
Yeah, I have that to look forward.
52:08
Oh yeah. Yeah.
52:10
Fuck. Completely random too and you're
52:13
just like why the fuck? I have an adjustable wrench.
52:16
I have a Leatherman that I stole from Frankie that's cool and
52:20
then a one screwdriver that's for my battery.
52:24
Then you probably have all those tools on you right now.
52:26
Yeah, in my. That's one of the perks of
52:28
driving, riding a bike that's from the 70s I.
52:29
Have them in my pocket. I'm just kidding.
52:31
They're in the. They're underneath my chair.
52:33
Like a seat. Yeah.
52:34
It's a little. It took me months to figure out
52:37
that there was a little cubby hole underneath the seat.
52:40
Yeah, they designed that so that you and I was like.
52:42
What is that? Oh, I could show tools in here
52:47
like, but I would like a Harley eventually.
52:50
Mainly just cause like it's a Harley.
52:52
It's like, yeah. It's like.
52:53
We went to the museum. Like I'm, I'm such a traitor
52:55
right now. Like I can't, I can't even go to
52:57
the fucking museum. If you're ever up in Milwaukee,
52:59
really. Oh my God, dude.
53:01
Actually a good time. Like Frankie's not joshing you.
53:03
This no this this fucking museum is next level like.
53:06
It it was a good time. Like the right when you get into
53:10
the exhibit, there's like a lineup of all the bikes.
53:14
Like from. The.
53:15
Start. Yeah, like you turn the corner
53:17
and it's just in a straight line in a.
53:18
Straight line. Not all of them, but yeah, A.
53:20
Lot majority of the earlier ones, so you could just see like
53:24
the advancement of it and you're like damn, when did this shit
53:27
get cool? Because that's when I have a
53:28
whole engine room where it's like the engine.
53:30
Oh, that's. Dope, dude.
53:32
It's it's. Crazy.
53:33
The chat. The frame room too.
53:34
The coolest? Part about that the engine room
53:36
was when you walk into that room and you look straight, there's a
53:39
bike, but when you start walking towards it, it's just pieces of
53:42
the bike pole. Oh wow, that's so.
53:44
You walk around it and it's completely taken apart.
53:46
Yeah, I was. I was.
53:48
I was talking shit about Frankie during that whole time because I
53:50
was like. We're going to.
53:52
See the museum? God damn it.
53:53
Yeah. And then we got there.
53:54
And you're like. Whoa, we get in.
53:56
I'm like, Oh yeah. Yeah, we're gonna have to go to
53:59
the. Like name another museum that.
54:01
Is. But yeah, you bought a Yamaha.
54:03
I, I, it, it kind of fell into my lap.
54:05
A friend of mine, a friend of ours had it.
54:08
It wasn't running really all that great.
54:11
I got him. I gave him a carton of
54:13
cigarettes for it. I brought it home, didn't know
54:18
shit. Immediately was like, whoa, what
54:22
am I doing with this thing? Clean the carbs.
54:26
I know. It's been a road, it's been a.
54:27
Lot of I did a bunch of stuff. But you, you made it happen bro.
54:31
Yeah, shit's outside. Yo did so much it's charging the
54:37
charging system and it's all on old equipment too.
54:40
I'm on a point style ignition so it's not no electronic shit.
54:43
I had ACBI have ACB 457-1971 and I basically did the same thing
54:49
you did. I got the bike and then I had to
54:50
learn everything on it and it I remember that process and it
54:53
was, it's one of my more memorable times working on
54:56
anything because you've learned so much about.
54:59
And you need something. New to do old stuff.
55:01
You only need like 4 tools. That's the coolest part.
55:03
And when you take it apart. Feeler gauges.
55:06
Yeah. Literally.
55:07
Dude. I never knew how important the
55:11
fucking feeler gauge. Is.
55:14
I use it. I use.
55:15
It for dumb shit. Like for a while I was like, oh,
55:19
it's my fucking stator, not magnetizing or whatever the hell
55:23
that it needs to do. So then one of the fixes is
55:25
like, oh, pull your feeler gauge out, put it by the cover, turn
55:27
it on. If it snaps to the cover, it
55:30
works. So I did that.
55:31
I turned it on. Shit like magnetized the cover.
55:33
I'm like what the fuck Like dude.
55:37
The points, That was crazy. Point style ignition is is ass.
55:40
I had to like you have to like turn the the cranked and then
55:46
you fucking like put the thing in there.
55:47
So interesting. I built a test light out of a
55:51
bulb and some alligator clips and I'm spinning the fucking
55:53
crank and then it lights up and I'm like whoa like.
55:56
Do you ever think about like that?
55:57
That was that was the 70s and now look at like a BM, the
56:01
modern BMW. Like what the fuck happened?
56:05
Just computers, I guess. Yeah, literally just computer.
56:07
Yeah, but. Kind of.
56:09
Here's. Here's an example of of people
56:11
not losing their touch, I guess, but also losing their touch.
56:14
The other day I was riding two days ago or I was riding home
56:17
from work. I only work like 15 minutes from
56:19
my house. So for a chop it's kind of nice.
56:22
It could break down. I would walk home, but I saw a
56:26
Royal Enfield maybe two cars up. I love that bike.
56:29
So then I fucking. Slow as fuck, I'm just.
56:32
I'm like, yo, like that's a Royal Enfield.
56:35
Like we're talking. I'm like, what year is that
56:38
thing? It like looks real old, real
56:40
patinaed out. I'm like, he's like, yeah, it's
56:43
a 2018. Before you even go any further,
56:46
this guy definitely wanted to talk to you forever.
56:48
Am I right or wrong? No, because now I didn't want to
56:52
talk to him because he was. But he wanted to talk to you
56:54
about his royal Einfeld. I don't.
56:57
I personally don't. I, I was disinterested the
56:59
moment he said it was a 2018. I was like, you're a fucking
57:01
phony. You're.
57:03
Not struggling, you're not. Struggling.
57:05
That shit ain't hard. What the fuck are you even doing
57:07
on that thing? Those guys.
57:08
Love their fucking motorcycles. It was FI.
57:10
It was FI, but they made it look really old, like it looked the
57:15
the cylinder head looked really old still.
57:18
I know, but but he was like, wait, that thing's car operated
57:21
and I was like, yeah, is yours not like.
57:24
What the? Fuck, dude.
57:25
I remember one time, I guess I was selling a motorcycle.
57:28
I don't know what the fuck I was doing.
57:29
I must have been selling a motorcycle or something.
57:31
But this guy hit me up. Yeah, I might be interested.
57:36
I'll come by. I'm like, OK, he comes by, he
57:39
gets here, I walk outside, he starts talking to me about his
57:42
bike, about his bike that he rode there.
57:44
First of all, he rode a bike there.
57:45
So I was like, how the fuck are? You buying this bike?
57:48
So already I knew right off the rip this was bullshit.
57:50
Oh God. So I'm like, what's up, man?
57:53
And then he he literally just came there to hang out with me
57:55
and talk about his motorcycle. Oh, is that the secret?
57:58
Okay. What was there?
57:59
Did you find this guy? Facebook microphone.
58:00
Probably Facebook. Not, not.
58:01
For Craigslist it was that it was that old I I think.
58:04
That's how I'm going to hang out with Frankie and we should
58:06
respond to his ads. Dude.
58:07
As an I was like, I was like, I gotcha.
58:10
Now we're hanging out. Like, so I walk out.
58:12
It was here. I walk out.
58:14
I'm like, Oh yeah, cool bike. And he starts telling me about
58:16
his bike. Yeah, I just bought it.
58:17
This. I'm like, you just bought it.
58:18
Why are you fucking trying to buy a motorcycle?
58:20
But anyway, so so we're talking and he's like, yeah, you want to
58:22
ride it? I'm like, I guess, and I get on
58:26
it. I write it up and down the
58:26
block. I'm like, all right, cool.
58:29
Like, you want to see the bike, like the reason you're here?
58:33
And he's like, Oh yeah, I guess I'm like, this is the creepiest,
58:36
weirdest thing I've ever been involved.
58:38
In you're getting kidnapped, so like he.
58:39
He saw it, wasn't even, didn't even care.
58:41
He's like, yeah, I don't know. I don't know if I can really
58:43
like buy it, but I'm like, what the fuck are we doing?
58:45
And then he just left and I was like, thank God.
58:48
Like what was that? I really thought like I was.
58:50
Well, if he came with a white van, I might be.
58:53
Concerned. Is he scoping the shop out like
58:56
what's going on? No, but he literally, you could
58:57
tell he just didn't have any friends.
58:59
That was it. OK.
59:00
Like. This is how he was making
59:01
friends. Well, yeah, OK.
59:03
Well, maybe you should have gave him a little like.
59:05
I entertained him. Hey.
59:06
Bud, you want to go get a pizza guy?
59:07
Yeah, like I mean it. Was just.
59:09
It was exchange information. It was just weird, 'cause he
59:12
like whole time I'm standing there talking about the Viking
59:13
and I'm like, wait a second, he didn't even ask me about the
59:15
fucking thing he came here to buy.
59:18
Like what are we doing? What if?
59:20
Oh no, what if? What do we just screwed over

1:05:20
he drives for some reason, I'm like, God damn, like this kid is
1:05:23
just like, it's disgusting. Connor Shanahan, the Red Bull
1:05:27
car, that's a BMW E36, and it looks literally like it should
1:05:31
be doing that. 46 no earlier than that, no.
1:05:34
I'm thinking maybe the one after that maybe like a 90 something
1:05:38
maybe that would look cool. What the hell?
1:05:42
This is obviously my personal opinion but I I don't know dude.
1:05:46
Something about those I had a. Friend of mine drift one of
1:05:48
those E90 ones too, like E90M3 with the S, whatever that engine
1:05:54
is called. The V10 one.
1:05:55
The V8. V. 80 dude it sounded so good,
1:05:58
I. Just think of Vanos and want to
1:05:59
kill myself. Shout out Darren dude.
1:06:02
He he posted that video and I was like, you're doing what like
1:06:05
this? This is real.
1:06:07
He's like just drifting at summit point.
1:06:08
So now it's like longer corners and at the fucking M threes.
1:06:12
Just you know what? I liked 1 E 46 Josh Rolos when
1:06:18
he did the BN. Can you know?
1:06:19
He didn't even know him when he had that car.
1:06:22
Yeah, but that was the start of all of this bullshit.
1:06:24
It was no, no, no, no, no. I'm saying that's the start of
1:06:27
all the bullshit where I'm like, oh, I could do this was that
1:06:31
podcast. We had a podcast with Josh Rolas
1:06:33
where we talked about his E46 where he grafted an S14 BN
1:06:38
bumper on like a Cokie S14. Yeah.
1:06:40
That's pretty. Cool after that.
1:06:41
That car looked like a fucking drift car to me 'cause I was
1:06:45
like, oh, it kind of looks like a flared out.
1:06:47
But I'm. 40 you know. After that conversation was when
1:06:52
I started going. Oh.
1:06:55
Maybe I could just go make this? Like.
1:06:59
I miss Josh. Yeah, me too.
1:07:01
We should have him back. We only saw we saw him
1:07:02
literally. Last yeah, we did actually see
1:07:04
him recently. Yeah, but he's a fun guy.
1:07:08
Speak about Rich Whiteman though, dude, I so I've known
1:07:11
Rich for obviously probably 10 years now or more.
1:07:15
But we, you know, we hang out at the track and that's pretty much
1:07:18
it. But we we went to Japan like in
1:07:21
April, I want to say, and I got to really see Rich on like his
1:07:26
fucking like car. Shit bro, that guy is fucking
1:07:29
determined. What do you mean just?
1:07:32
In general, like he got there and he he he had a dude, he had
1:07:36
a mission before he even landed where he was like, I'm doing
1:07:38
this, I'm going here, we're driving 10 hours.
1:07:41
I'm not sleeping. Like I was like, OK, so don't
1:07:45
hang out with him. And like, I'm gonna go somewhere
1:07:47
else. And then Josh, and what's his
1:07:50
face fucking, he's gonna hate me right now.
1:07:55
But Josh and his best fucking friend, I forget his name, but
1:07:59
they went with him and I was like, you guys are making a
1:08:01
fucking fatal mistake right now. Well, Josh seemed like he had a
1:08:05
good time. They learned real fucking fast.
1:08:07
They literally didn't sleep. I mean, yeah, Josh obviously had
1:08:10
a good time, but he was like, we were fucking moving that whole
1:08:12
time because we landed in Osaka or yeah, we landed in Osaka and
1:08:16
they drove to wherever the fuck where?
1:08:21
What's that main episu? Have you sue or bihoku which?
1:08:24
One no, it'd be Sue like all the way above Tokyo like all the way
1:08:28
there they just got off the plane and drove there like
1:08:31
immediately and I was like you guys are crazy but.
1:08:33
What else are you going to do? Fucking not do that like.
1:08:38
They were on a mission. Yeah, I I'm just saying like
1:08:40
Rich is awesome for that. I mean, I don't know, I guess
1:08:43
it's just like some people are just more determined than other
1:08:46
people, like he is. I'm like, I'm good on that.
1:08:48
Like if I make it there, I make it there but.
1:08:50
He, he has an office job, so he's like, fuck the office, like
1:08:55
let me get to work. I kind of get that.
1:08:58
I did definitely talk to him about that because I was like,
1:09:01
is it it? It's like I don't know when you
1:09:04
get to run into other I working on.
1:09:06
Theo, by the way, it was Theo. I just have to say that Theo.
1:09:09
OK, poor Theo fucking forgot his.
1:09:13
Name. He's literally going to bring
1:09:14
this up to me when I see. Him.
1:09:14
You guys spent how many days out there I've known.
1:09:17
Theo for 10 years. Don't even fucking remember his
1:09:18
name, you're a scumbag. But no, the the whole office job
1:09:23
thing, the fact that. Yeah, he's got an office.
1:09:27
Job, yeah, like Rich was probably like, fucking get me
1:09:31
the fuck? Out.
1:09:32
Like when I when I talked to him about it, he was like, well,
1:09:35
he's like, look, I'm going into Japan, so I just figured I'm not
1:09:39
sleeping. And I was like, OK, that's one
1:09:41
way to look at it. Like he just has all these goals
1:09:44
like he wants to accomplish, so he's just going to do it and
1:09:46
he's not going to care about sleep.
1:09:47
Now there are people that exist like that, that don't need to
1:09:49
sleep. Really.
1:09:51
I'm not one of those fucking people.
1:09:52
Like I cannot do that shit. I don't know.
1:09:55
Are you one of those? People I could do like an hour
1:09:57
or two. I need sleep like a little bit
1:10:00
just just just for the sake of my brain, like coming back down
1:10:06
and then I can like wake up and go do it again.
1:10:09
Yeah, I just, I know I'm gonna crash, so it's like not worth
1:10:11
it. Yeah.
1:10:12
Yeah, but the crash doesn't happen till the.
1:10:13
End. I'm old now, Yeah.
1:10:14
In my in my 20s and 30s maybe. Yeah, maybe, maybe.
1:10:18
I mean, they're definitely like all nighters and shit before
1:10:20
final bout and all those big events where we're like, yeah,
1:10:23
but then like, I'll be driving there and I'm like falling
1:10:25
asleep at the wheel and I'm like, well, this is a little bit
1:10:27
more dangerous than just not making it.
1:10:29
But OK, so the events that we take part or we would like to be
1:10:35
a part of and take interest in or like final bout and like
1:10:38
those style events. But Tony's over here doing like
1:10:42
comps. What's another?
1:10:44
Aside from the drift comps, did you have any other weird racing
1:10:48
experiences? Because there's no way it limits
1:10:50
it at just Volvos. You've definitely done something
1:10:52
else, dude. Why do I feel like you raced
1:10:55
something else? And now?
1:10:57
Yeah, 'cause you said you're mostly just drifter like.
1:11:00
Yeah, I mean, I used to race enduro dirt bikes and stuff, but
1:11:03
like, that was when I was a kid and shit.
1:11:06
Yeah, so raising's always just been a thing.
1:11:08
Like you. You're in there.
1:11:10
Yeah, pretty much. My family was a bunch of
1:11:12
motorcycle people, so oh wow, you know.
1:11:15
It took you this long to get to Harlem?
1:11:17
Yeah, it did. That's crazy.
1:11:20
It did. But that's cool though.
1:11:26
Yeah, just mostly drifting. So your shop is primarily
1:11:29
drifting. Actually, I would say it's not
1:11:32
much. It's like.
1:11:34
I'd say it's more like it's everything.
1:11:37
It's everything. It's show car dudes, it's it's
1:11:40
drift dudes, it's it's streetcar dudes, it's new cars, it's old
1:11:46
cars. It's realistically anybody that
1:11:48
has something that wants to get something modified.
1:11:51
When when you started like? What do you want to do?
1:11:54
And I'm like OK, well let me figure it out.
1:11:57
When you started like actually promoting the shop and shit did,
1:12:00
how did you did you promote it as like a fabrication shop or
1:12:04
was it kind of just like everything?
1:12:06
I have no idea. I mean, we just did what we did
1:12:10
because, yes, we did what we did because we couldn't afford to
1:12:13
have somebody else do it for us, you know what I mean?
1:12:15
So it's like, oh, the only thing, realistically, Eric, Eric
1:12:20
painted my car in his garage. Fucking like, I don't know this
1:12:27
car six or seven years ago and we just drank beer and the paint
1:12:32
job's horrible, but it's a drift car, who cares?
1:12:35
By S15, obviously we didn't paint it.
1:12:38
We had somebody else paint it, but it was pretty so.
1:12:43
It's kind of like you guys went to the track, you drifted, you
1:12:46
worked on cars, but I feel like mainly it was like you guys
1:12:50
you're driving promoted the shop almost because you guys would go
1:12:53
to the. Track, I think, I think that's
1:12:55
what brought people in because it's like, OK, they go and
1:12:57
drive, but they wouldn't just come in, they would just come
1:12:59
there because we were driving and stuff, you know what I mean?
1:13:01
So it's like, OK, well, they can drive and drift and build drift
1:13:04
cars. So can you fix my DSM?
1:13:08
Here's my Evo. I want an HKS stroker OK.
1:13:11
Sure, guy. Oh, you could definitely do
1:13:14
this. This was going to be light for.
1:13:16
You, I mean like some months we'll have like 10 BMWs, you
1:13:21
know, and like and then all of a sudden it works out though 5
1:13:24
Supras. How, how does it like adapt?
1:13:28
OK, 'cause that BMW thing they changed over to what that B58
1:13:34
type of? Engine.
1:13:35
Yeah, that thing's pretty gnarly, dude.
1:13:36
I want that. Yeah.
1:13:38
I don't know shit about Dick. They're fast.
1:13:42
All you need is a downpipe and a tune and an exhaust and you make
1:13:45
150 horsepower. So what?
1:13:48
So it's twin turbo. What?
1:13:49
What? Tell me.
1:13:49
Single turbo. Single turbo.
1:13:51
OK. When you they I think they come
1:13:53
twin turbo. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:13:55
But when you put the single on it, guess what it sounds like?
1:13:58
Here we. Go guess, get.
1:13:59
Just just take a wild guess. Yeah.
1:14:05
Dude, Daryl drove one. His buddy has one in Florida.
1:14:08
I think you told me about. This and he was like, he drifted
1:14:11
it. He came home and was like.
1:14:13
Yo. F80 single turbo, that's the.
1:14:18
New new BMW that like doesn't look like a.
1:14:20
BMW No no no. The the the F80 was the good
1:14:22
looking one the G. 80 love that F80 that thing the we've done a
1:14:26
couple of those with a a big turbo, they fucking jam.
1:14:29
And they look. Cool, they look.
1:14:30
Awesome, 4 doors from and then they made.
1:14:32
This thing, the G80. Show me these photos some.
1:14:36
Of these, the G80 is the one with the nose.
1:14:38
The weird one, Yeah, you know how they all say like, oh, that
1:14:42
car is gonna grow on you? Yeah, I'm still.
1:14:43
Waiting. No, I don't that.
1:14:45
That's fine. That's fine.
1:14:46
I would like to drift that shit. Yeah, that's called, that's
1:14:49
called a BMW. The other one is not a BMW.
1:14:51
I don't know what they're doing that is confused.
1:14:54
Oh. That one.
1:14:56
Yeah. Now.
1:14:57
Okay, now there's a wagon One. I would drive the wagon.
1:15:00
Like, yeah, you can make that look good, but does it look like
1:15:02
a beam? Yeah, bruh, right there.
1:15:04
I'm driving that shit because it's a wagon and it's already
1:15:07
looks ugly. That looks like a maki.
1:15:09
OK. I will.
1:15:12
I will. Say, I actually don't like it
1:15:14
that much. I will say it an M, Was it an
1:15:17
M2, Malcolm? Is that what came the other day?
1:15:19
An M2 came here the other day and I was like, you know what?
1:15:22
It looks weird, but I kind of fuck with it, yeah.
1:15:25
Oh, no, I don't like this car. Yeah, I was on the highway the
1:15:29
other day. I was on the phone with Diego
1:15:30
and I was like, oh look, an M2 I'll.
1:15:32
And then Diego was like, you take that back right now.
1:15:34
I don't If you showed me if you were like this one or the other
1:15:37
one, I'd be like fucking this. Obviously it's.
1:15:39
Why is everything sharp angle like?
1:15:41
I know it's weird. It's like they're they're going
1:15:43
for some weird shit, but. Then if you if you get like the
1:15:45
CS version, if you type in the letter CS after M2 Malcolm
1:15:49
anywhere, just type in CS like it's like a big one.
1:15:53
It's like, really puffy. Apparently they're.
1:15:56
Yeah, that red one, that red one, it's really puffy.
1:15:59
I saw one of those. I was like what the hell?
1:16:02
I wanna like it, but I'm just like.
1:16:04
Yeah. But look at that blue one.
1:16:05
Look at, look, look how much better that blue one to the
1:16:06
right, right there. Yeah, look.
1:16:09
At when it look when it have the normal kidney grow. 2020 That
1:16:13
right there is a good car. But someone was like, oh, we
1:16:15
have to, we have to change it. How do you do the fucking
1:16:18
Malcolm? Can you do a German accent?
1:16:20
And so we need to make the little better.
1:16:25
Are you? Fucking.
1:16:26
Serious. Are you shitting right now?
1:16:29
Can you do that again? Just say something else in
1:16:32
German. Let's make the corners little
1:16:34
bit square. Yo, Tony, we were putting
1:16:37
together the fucking. What were we putting together?
1:16:39
The fucking oh the. Shipping.
1:16:41
Table. We had a, we have a shipping
1:16:42
table, right dude? Instead of like just having
1:16:45
fucking bolts that hold the back like the rack, instead of having
1:16:49
just bolts that hold it on, it's a fucking spring on a nut cert
1:16:54
thing and you have to put it in there, line it up, and when you
1:16:57
turn the bolt, hopefully it twists and then it locks in
1:17:01
place, right. So me and him are fucking with
1:17:03
this thing for 30 minutes and then Malcolm just goes.
1:17:06
No, you're like, I was like, who the fuck made this shit?
1:17:08
You're you're like, I don't know, maybe the fucking Germans.
1:17:11
And I was like oh fuck we forgot the einch spliner.
1:17:17
Malcolm just goes, wait, you don't have.
1:17:19
The Einch Ivan. No, my God, dude.
1:17:23
It's like you need this fucking. You were like you need a fucking
1:17:25
specialty tool for this fucking table.
1:17:27
Yeah, yeah. But here's the worst part is
1:17:29
when I was watching the before I came here, I was watching you
1:17:32
guys unbox these lovely treats that we received, by the way,
1:17:35
from our friend Seth and. Seth gave us soccer Bop Bop.
1:17:41
His name is Bop. And from the Netherlands.
1:17:43
From the Netherlands, I think Bop might be from somewhere
1:17:46
else. No, he's from the Netherlands.
1:17:47
Where's Seth from? Canada.
1:17:49
Canada. Set some Canada.
1:17:52
But anyway, you guys are doing, you guys are reading the Dutch
1:17:57
stuff in a German accent. Yeah.
1:17:59
And I was like, do they know like?
1:18:02
No, the answer's no like this. Is Malcolm?
1:18:04
This is Malcolm. This is Malcolm.
1:18:05
Hold on. Let's see.
1:18:07
Here and you're drinking one of. The ingredient in Gustaru, like
1:18:11

1:18:14
We're American. I am drinking them though.
1:18:15
Thank you. How is it?
1:18:17
I'm about to take a sip right now.
1:18:18
Oh, you didn't take a sip yet? Do you want me to?
1:18:20
Yes, review it. OK, we got the hey guys, we have
1:18:26
the frontal brewing code Juiced Punch 5.8% New England IPA, but
1:18:32
that's the only English words on this but.
1:18:34
That's not New England. New England.
1:18:36
I don't know, maybe they're talking about the actual England
1:18:38
that's by where they are. Europe.
1:18:41
You know, like, like that. Maybe not like Rhode.
1:18:43
Island. That's called England.
1:18:45
New England is here. Oh yeah, true.
1:18:49
That's why it's new. Me and Tony were already on it
1:18:53
bro. Like no, we're talking about
1:18:54
Europe, England. Anyway, so it says beer for
1:18:57
thought. I'm going to give it a little
1:18:58
sip. You better be honest.
1:19:01
Smells super strong. You better be honest, Carl.
1:19:10
Tastes like an IPA with fruit. It tastes very fruit and IPA.
1:19:16
What the fuck is this shit you guys got from 7:11?
1:19:18
Slurpees, what are you deprived of?
1:19:20
Your childhood? Actually, it's melting as fuck,
1:19:22
but you can put a little bit of tequila in here.
1:19:24
Oh, it's Slurpee day. I didn't know.
1:19:27
I didn't know if I had to be ready.
1:19:29
Princesses, you can't just drink her shit.
1:19:31
I I just had a smorgasbord of stuff in case which I'm glad.
1:19:36
I'm having a great time, Tony. Yeah, you're fucking awesome.
1:19:39
Thank you. But you guys aren't too bad
1:19:41
yourselves. Yeah, we can fucking dude, wait
1:19:43
till we get the smoke vent in here.
1:19:44
I'm going to be fucking. Ever since I said my landlord
1:19:48
said we could put a smoke. Vent dude I just want a cigar
1:19:51
burning the whole fucking pod just.
1:19:54
We can smoke in here. So what do you think about it?
1:20:03
Look. Exactly like Joe Rogan.
1:20:04
But but why though? Just.
1:20:09
Question everything the fuck is saying just because I have a
1:20:13
cigar? I can't get over the Ivan
1:20:15
Schleibman. Ivan.
1:20:19
Malcolm's good at everything, so like accents and shit like that.
1:20:22
It's just. It's just.
1:20:24
Skateboarding this. Is actually kind of good as
1:20:26
fuck. Anything.
1:20:28
Yeah, yeah, yeah, pretty much everything.
1:20:30
Yeah. Well, what do you are you, what
1:20:33
do you got going on right now? You said you had an RX7.
1:20:35
Yeah. What is?
1:20:36
It where did that? And then and then you were just
1:20:38
like randomly, you were just like my S15.
1:20:41
So I was like. I well get into RX7 first and
1:20:44
then I wanna come back to S15. The RX7 is a project I've been
1:20:48
working on for like the last four years.
1:20:50
It doesn't move. It's it's sounds like my car.
1:20:53
It's TCP magic, Jay-Z powered dog walks, winners, Motech cars,
1:21:00
I mean it's. Oh wow.
1:21:01
About. 6070 grand and it doesn't move so it's three quarter two
1:21:07
chassis it's going to be a gnarly party machine.
1:21:11
I just I can't afford to finish it.
1:21:14
What's? The goal for it?
1:21:15
Are you going to make a rattle? You're.
1:21:17
Oh, just. Pure kale straight.
1:21:19
Yeah, you got photos of that on Instagram or no?
1:21:21
Yeah, there should be on on the grams.
1:21:23
And we'll search for it. That'll be like a.
1:21:24
Pro debut. It doesn't.
1:21:27
It doesn't death. That's my buy a vacation home,
1:21:33
build it, sell it. Buy a Bay house, drive it for a
1:21:38
year or two, have fun with it. Sell it, let somebody else
1:21:42
destroy it. Carl, I wanted to tell you, I
1:21:43
don't know if you know this. Josh Deliza's engine was his
1:21:46
engine. That came out of my S15.
1:21:49
The green. Yes.
1:21:50
Yeah. And you know what's funny?
1:21:54
I seen the Craigslist ad for that bitch when it was first
1:21:58
posted. I know how much it is.
1:21:59
Shit, I know how much it was. It went, it went from 2P, it
1:22:02
went from him to what's his face in.
1:22:05
The Island Davis. Yes, Chris Davis.
1:22:06
And then it went to Josh. It might have been.
1:22:08
So it might have been Chris. It might have been that Chris's
1:22:12
Craigslist ad, but I know the green valve cover.
1:22:15
I know that it was pretty cheap for what it was now at that
1:22:20
time. At that time, it was probably.
1:22:22
Fair, but. Yeah, it was fair, but nowadays
1:22:24
it's cheap as shit. Yeah, but that is insane.
1:22:27
Yeah, and that thing ran forever.
1:22:30
So that thing. 'S Josh.
1:22:31
Killed it. It's done.
1:22:32
No. Is it done?
1:22:33
Done. Yeah, I think he blew is.
1:22:34
It the motor that's in my next to my toolbox, I I think it is
1:22:38
I. Messaged him and I was cuz he
1:22:39
was complaining about temp still and I was like.
1:22:44
Well. It's coolant tent.
1:22:45
Yeah, yeah, it was. I was like, well, remember when
1:22:48
you said the compression was low?
1:22:49
And then he was like, it's normal with cams.
1:22:51
And I was like, ah, I guess you're he.
1:22:52
Pressure tested the system and he did a fucking what do you
1:22:55
call it a coolant tester thing in the.
1:22:58
Combustion test to see if there's combustion in the cool,
1:23:01
Yeah. And it passed both.
1:23:03
So I was like, I, I don't know, I don't think it's a head
1:23:06
gasket. Have you ever seen a head gasket
1:23:09
failure and passed both of those things?
1:23:13
Because we're about to go down a really dark rabbit hole, I.
1:23:15
Want to? I want to.
1:23:16
Hear this, This might help us. For the last two years I've been
1:23:19
fighting issues with my car getting hot.
1:23:24
The cylinder head was pulling up the IT was actually warped it.
1:23:28
Funny story is the head came off of Richie's Canadian Jay ZX when
1:23:32
it first got here and it was a pile of shit and we had to tear
1:23:36
it apart and rebuild it in 30 days.
1:23:39
But after he ran that for that season, he was done.
1:23:45
We got the car like put together so he could drive it.
1:23:47
He had a fourth place finish in Orlando.
1:23:49
He finished driving it that season.
1:23:52
After that season we tore that engine down in my already had a
1:23:56
built Jay-Z with a VVTI head. So he took that stuff.
1:24:01
I took his old shit. I had a brand new 3 liter block.
1:24:05
Took the Canadian head. Just strapped it to that my car
1:24:08
threw it in there and been driving it ever since.
1:24:10
Well I'd have been having temperature problems forever so
1:24:13
I put a pressure sensor in the coolant system.
1:24:16
Went out to E town at East Coast drift school and went to logs.
1:24:21
8000 RPM, 60 lbs of coolant pressure.
1:24:25
So I'm like, OK, and it only does it at 8000 RPMS at a
1:24:28
certain amount of boost. I'm like, it's got to be lifting
1:24:31
the head or it's got to be warped.
1:24:33
Like, but I took I took a leak down tester and put the bubble
1:24:37
funnel on the cooling system because I'm like, it's got to be
1:24:39
a head gasket. But like let me pressurize the
1:24:41
cylinders and these cylinders see if any bubbles come out of
1:24:44
the over bubbly tube thing. Yeah, nothing.
1:24:48
No, no, no fucking shit. But obviously it's not a lot of
1:24:52
pressure. Is 100 a 150PSI?
1:24:54
It's not, you know, 1002 thousand 3000PSI cylinder
1:24:58
pressure. But I figured if the head gasket
1:25:00
was bad enough, it would show. So like, yeah, it's passing all
1:25:03
the tests at idle. Right.
1:25:05
The stupid little coolant strip things or whatever, couldn't
1:25:10
figure it out, Couldn't figure it out.
1:25:11
Put a coolant temperature or pressure sensor in it and was
1:25:14
able to review the logs and be like OK, Pulled the head, looked
1:25:17
at it and was like, OK, the gasket's completely fucked.
1:25:20
And so I took it to the machine shop and yeah, your head's
1:25:24
worked, dude. But.
1:25:25
It made sense because I started thinking about it and I'm like,
1:25:27
Oh yeah, because we tore down Rich's car after that first
1:25:30
season of FD and everything was new.
1:25:32
Like it was all PDPWR RAD and all sorts of fancy shit after
1:25:39
the train wreck with the Canadian because it the car was
1:25:42
just in such bad shape that he didn't have the funds with
1:25:46
buying the car and running a season to like do another motor
1:25:50
on top of it. But at the end of that season we
1:25:52
pulled his rat out and I'm like why the fuck does this thing
1:25:54
look like it's ballooned? Like it it was puffed out.
1:25:59
I'm like fuck man no whatever. It never car never got hot.
1:26:02
And that's another thing the car would it would see 58 lbs of
1:26:05
coolant pressure at like 188°, but I would be at 8000 RPM.
1:26:10
That means like I just jumped in it.
1:26:12
It's still kind of cold and I pinned it so it was definitely
1:26:17
getting hot. So my car is down right now, the
1:26:20
head's off of it and. So you think it was the head was
1:26:24
warped? This whole week, yeah, it was.
1:26:26
So it was warped in his car too. But since his rad was in the
1:26:29
back and it never overheated and he just had to do those four
1:26:33
rounds of FD, Yeah, you know, we got done.
1:26:37
And when we took it all apart, we're like, what the fuck?
1:26:39
Why? You told me the story because
1:26:40
now it's just something we can think.
1:26:42
About what's the time stamp on this, Malcolm, so I could be
1:26:44
like, hey, Josh 12:50? Eight, this fluent pressure.
1:26:48
Well, he needs to get rid of the power.
1:26:49
I mean first. I think.
1:26:50
He's on anyway. Anyway guys.
1:26:52
Yeah, he's on a link I believe. Is he Josh on a link?
1:26:55
No, he is. Yeah.
1:26:56
Yeah. But I don't think this is his
1:26:59
problem though, because I think because he took it around
1:27:03
yesterday when he left here and he he got back and it was like
1:27:06
185° just cruising around and I was like it's a little hot to be
1:27:12
cruising around which it came out to like I don't know if
1:27:15
Celsius I I only know Celsius when it comes to coolant temps
1:27:18
'cause that's the power of C like it's so fucking retarded.
1:27:22
But. 7080. Yeah, something I think it was
1:27:24
above. 80 yeah, if it's above 80, I'm like.
1:27:27
A little hot, yeah. For just cruising around, Yeah,
1:27:30
yeah, yeah. So I was like, I don't know,
1:27:32
dude, but yeah, I don't think it's a head issue.
1:27:35
Maybe it is. I don't know what else he's
1:27:36
running into, but. I just know every time I'm
1:27:40
around Josh so far he's had car troubles, so I'm like, damn, am
1:27:47
I just bringing this on the job? No, it's.
1:27:49
Just. I mean.
1:27:52
Dude I finally got to ride in the car with Josh after all of
1:27:56
these years. Bruh I finally rode in the car
1:27:58
and as soon as I got in the car the shit started overheating.
1:28:02
So that was when it started. Was on the mountain.
1:28:04
No, it was when we were at that private day the week before the
1:28:06
mountain when they're doing the shakedown.
1:28:08
And I was like, oh, OK, all right, well, I'm gonna get out.
1:28:12
I'm gonna get out and and just just watch instead so that you
1:28:18
know the. Pressure sensor in the coolant
1:28:20
system is, yeah, pretty. Cool.
1:28:21
Yeah, that's. That's good.
1:28:23
That that is something that's. The only way we were able to
1:28:26
find it. So we're like you neither.
1:28:27
You know, the head is lifting and the bolts are loose.
1:28:30
Yeah. Or it, it was warped.
1:28:33
And the the telltale signs on the gasket were that it was it
1:28:36
was. It almost looked like it was
1:28:39
warped to like a side, like it kind of looked like a wedge.
1:28:42
Almost. Like but all the bolts were
1:28:45
tight so. What the fuck were you talking
1:28:47
about before? Oh, I told you where he got the
1:28:49
engine from. Yeah, yeah, that that's but that
1:28:52
engine was it Did you sell it as the current?
1:28:56
Yeah, I think it it was a full dressed engine.
1:28:58
And you? 'Cause I swapped an RB26 into
1:29:00
that S15. OK, Yeah, yeah, Malcolm, you
1:29:03
could find his S15. It's silver.
1:29:06
That car's sick, too. Yeah, you were one of.
1:29:09
No, I mean, I'm sure people had S Fifteens, but to me it was one
1:29:12
of the first S fifteens I remember seeing at least had a
1:29:15
drift track. Like, yeah, I mean, I drifted
1:29:17
it, Yeah. I wasn't a Pansy complete Pansy
1:29:20
about it, but. But it wasn't S15.
1:29:23
So so I wouldn't go as hard as I usually do in the S14.
1:29:26
The S14, there's zero fucks given.
1:29:27
You know, it's like, I really don't care.
1:29:29
Yeah, you. Probably remember that card, yo.
1:29:30
No, no, that's. That's that.
1:29:33
And look at Christian, is that Christian?
1:29:36
Is that James, James and Tyler? This is that.
1:29:39
Is that Pocono? Yeah, dude, I definitely,
1:29:43
definitely have seen that car before because there's not a lot
1:29:46
of S. Fifteens back three piece.
1:29:50
So you built, you didn't even build the Sr. you threw a turbo
1:29:52
on it, right? It wasn't built that engine, I
1:29:54
don't think. Well when I got the car the
1:29:56
engine blew up like two days later.
1:29:57
Why is this a? Well, because I traded an S13
1:30:02
for that car straight up. OK.
1:30:05
But my S13 was 500 horsepower. Pretty gnarly but.
1:30:11
And there's the S13. That's the 14.
1:30:14
Oh, let me see that. Yeah, I wanna see that 'cause I
1:30:16
don't think I really. Yeah.
1:30:17
Yeah. Yeah, that thing's sweet.
1:30:19
You gotta talk to em. That thing is pretty cool.
1:30:22
That shit is barking. So the it's.
1:30:24
Got a dog box in it? It's 725 horsepower.
1:30:29
Definitely. Barking, bro.
1:30:31
So S15's engine blew up and then what?
1:30:33
I put another S14S saw in it OK dressed it with a Garrett GTX
1:30:38
3076, put injectors in it, made like 400 horsepower.
1:30:41
And it it was that way for like I wanna say it was 10 years.
1:30:45
Yeah, yeah, years. And even went through Josh's
1:30:48
hands for a while. And I think he drove it for six
1:30:51
or seven. And it only fell apart, quote UN
1:30:53
quote last year, I think. Yeah, Yeah.
1:30:56
And now I think it's by my toolbox.
1:30:57
Yeah. And I'm supposed to do
1:30:58
something. Like that, That thing's a
1:30:59
fucking beast. Yeah, so.
1:31:03
That's just what. It's a fucking beast.
1:31:06
I mean, yeah, it survived. So you took it out just 'cause
1:31:08
you wanted to do RB? Yeah.
1:31:10
OK, so and then I put ARB in that put an RB in the there's my
1:31:17
wife putting it in. Holy shit.
1:31:21
Wow, dropping it in that car, just that engine I that.
1:31:24
Is the MVP right there? Bro for real.
1:31:28
Fucking. I bought that engine.
1:31:29
It was a Cam Cam motor Quinn turbo with pure 7 hundreds on
1:31:34
it. I took this the the the twins
1:31:37
off of it and did a single turbo.
1:31:40
It made like 650 wheel I think there's dyno videos of it.
1:31:44
It sounded fucking amazing. When was the last time you had?
1:31:47
Something slow. Everything you've named so far
1:31:50
is like at least like even the fucking little go Kart.
1:31:53
The side by side. It was.
1:31:54
It was when it was SRD. 300 something horsepower slow.
1:32:02
Ohh. My God, I tease Rich all the
1:32:06
time. I'm like, do you miss your
1:32:07
Jay-Z? Do you miss your Jay-Z?
1:32:10
There's a 3-4 sitting on the floor.
1:32:11
Yeah, he's in the SRS right now. Oh my God, dude.
1:32:16
Everything you need to like R BS.
1:32:19
I do like R BS Yeah you caught 4.
1:32:22
K but they make you guys make a pretty sick product for Jay ZS
1:32:26
if I. We make we make coil brackets
1:32:28
for R BS too bring. Up a freedom Freedom's
1:32:30
Instagram. I wanna see this thing because
1:32:32
what's that? What's that product I'm thinking
1:32:34
of? The the motor plate.
1:32:35
Dude, that thing's sick. Yeah, there's, it's on that car
1:32:39
right there, Yeah. See that?
1:32:40
See that thing that goes across the front of the engine, Carl?
1:32:42
What the fuck is that for an electric water pump?
1:32:46
I mean yeah that that uses an electric water pump.
1:32:49
This is for a rear mount rad set up.
1:32:52
But the the general idea with this with this plate is for
1:32:56
mounting or is this? For Yeah, well, OK, yeah.
1:32:59
So 1500 horsepower or more the side mounts of the Jay ZS break
1:33:03
off. So because of the torque of the
1:33:06
engine. So a lot of guys use a motor
1:33:09
plate and a mid plate. So like on Rich's Jay ZX, this
1:33:13
car has got a like we don't run a mid plate in drifting.
1:33:17
Like if it was a drag car, we'd have a a mid plate where the
1:33:20
transmission bolts into the mid plate, then the engine bolts
1:33:23
onto that and then the front plate bolts onto that.
1:33:26
So the engine is supported in three different spots.
1:33:28
Actually this wild Jesus. But this is awesome because it,
1:33:32
it loses the mounts, right? So like you can drop this
1:33:35
subframe, do an oil pump. You, you, you blow out the
1:33:38
suspension. You need to put a new subframe
1:33:40
in. You can do it without touching
1:33:41
the engine. The engine just stays
1:33:43
stationary. The subframe comes out.
1:33:45
So like if you need to do a trans or a clutch or something
1:33:48
you don't like have you know, don't even take intercooler
1:33:50
pipes off. You know, you're just like most
1:33:53
transmissions. I drop a subframe in an S
1:33:55
chassis, usually front sub, let it hang.
1:33:57
Then you can get to all the bolts.
1:33:59
But this you just, you know. I never knew that.
1:34:02
And just pull the fucking thing right?
1:34:04
Out so I feel like the only downside would be if you get
1:34:06
into a pretty bad accident then everything is moving around.
1:34:09
Yeah, yeah. At that point, yeah.
1:34:10
But that's three quarter inch billet steel or billet aluminum.
1:34:13
So it's gonna have to be a pretty serious impact.
1:34:16
You know, this reminds me of like motorcycles where the
1:34:18
engines built into the frame, Yeah, or some shit.
1:34:20
Yeah, that's pretty much what it is.
1:34:21
Yeah, Yeah. That's pretty cool.
1:34:23
I always thought that that was because I went anytime I saw an
1:34:27
engine Bay with some sort of crazy shit like that, I always
1:34:29
thought it was so that you could bolt like something else, like a
1:34:32
supercharger or something like that.
1:34:34
Well, and this thing's rowdy. That thing's that thing in the
1:34:36
corner. There's a electronic anti lag
1:34:39
valve. Yeah, yeah, that's electronic
1:34:43
anti lag. This car is pretty nutty.
1:34:45
This is our lead tech Lucas's car.
1:34:49
This is a text car. Yeah, he just.
1:34:51
Finished the car, Get your bread up.
1:34:52
What the fuck? What are we doing?
1:34:54
Oh my. God, look at this.
1:34:57
That is why. What now?
1:34:59
Is there something else you guys like?
1:35:01
Is there something with the water pump or something?
1:35:03
Yeah, we make if you go to our website, you can see all of the
1:35:07
parts that we make. But we do make AR-35 coil
1:35:11
conversion kit for the RV engines 202526.
1:35:15
We make it for the. We make it for the.
1:35:18
I love that. Find your freedom on the
1:35:19
website. I love.
1:35:21
That FMZ products. Above, above, above OK.
1:35:27
So like you can see we make the heater core delete kit for Jay
1:35:30
ZS. So like you know the back water
1:35:33
tube, the 2 Volt flange there that that'll loop around.
1:35:37
Yeah, I'm gonna have to tap into that.
1:35:39
I act delete, I'm gonna. This is the.
1:35:41
Jay-Z water pump kit. It gives it a billet, so the
1:35:44
back half of the water pump is billet.
1:35:47
It's got an AN fitting on the backside.
1:35:49
You guys designed this kind of stuff in house?
1:35:51
Yeah, damn, that's. Awesome man, I'm literally gonna
1:35:54
have to cut. That I act delete.
1:35:57
And then the little VV TI1J turbo kit.
1:36:01
That's cool. Yeah, dude, take a little V band
1:36:04
with your factory manifold. OK, yeah, I see.
1:36:07
So it just bolts and it turns into AV band top mount.
1:36:10
Yeah. What?
1:36:12
That's cool. I'd love the quick change rear
1:36:15
end stuff. Yeah, so I haven't put the RX71
1:36:19
up. We obviously I made a quick
1:36:20
change for the RX72, not just the JZX and the S13 S 14S15, but
1:36:28
it was. Super stuff too.
1:36:29
Yeah, we make carbon fiber intakes for a few pros.
1:36:32
Fuck, we got to talk. After this that shit is crazy.
1:36:35
Guy is working billet thermostat housings AN fitting.
1:36:42
Looks like quality stuff, man. It's it's awesome.
1:36:44
Yeah, I remember seeing that front.
1:36:46
Oh, you're going to do it? Yeah.
1:36:47
Cool. Definitely, definitely.
1:36:51
But I have a ton of other stuff, I just haven't had time to put
1:36:53
them up. Like we make billet little
1:36:55
throttle mounts and stuff so you can pull it under your intake
1:36:57
manifold and put your throttle cable on.
1:36:59
It's just nice billet stuff. Yeah, anything that I run across
1:37:03
and I'm like we should have this.
1:37:05
Yeah, yeah, I know that feeling. Wow.
1:37:08
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
1:37:09
Yeah. That is.
1:37:12
And then up top, Malcolm on the right, there was something like
1:37:15
Winter's quick change subframe DIY welding kit.
1:37:18
That's cool. Yeah.
1:37:19
So you can just you can just buy our water jetted pieces and Weld
1:37:22
it in yourself do. You guys have a water jet in
1:37:25
house or you guys? No I have AI have a water jet
1:37:27
off site. OK, it's cool.
1:37:31
That is, that is some actual race car shit.
1:37:35
Dude, what I want to, I want to jump back to this thing you said
1:37:38
earlier. You you mentioned that you
1:37:39
worked for Brian down in MA. Yeah, and Ray?
1:37:42
So that was a far ass drive for you, right?
1:37:44
Or did you? Yeah, well, about an hour and
1:37:46
about an hour and 10 minutes. Oh, OK.
1:37:48
So like I'm on, I'm in southern Chester County, so I'm like
1:37:53
30-40 minutes from Maryland. What was that experience like?
1:37:57
I feel like Brian's an awesome dude.
1:37:59
Yeah, it's a good experience. Learned a lot there.
1:38:02
You know, Forsberg's program was being ran there when I was
1:38:05
there, so, you know. Yeah, tons of crazy learning
1:38:09
because. We've all kind of been doing
1:38:11
this stuff forever. I mean, I've known Brian since
1:38:13
he was driving FD. Wow.
1:38:15
And same with Wagner. Wagner was driving FD with with
1:38:18
Matt. I was just too PO to drive, you
1:38:22
know, So I had to. I was the Wednesday night guy
1:38:25
night. Moves.
1:38:26
I was the one loading all my tires in the fucking car and be
1:38:28
like please don't brake please don't brake.
1:38:31
I got to get home and go to work tomorrow.
1:38:34
Meanwhile, everyone's like, yeah, it's fun.
1:38:37
Trailers. And I talked to Brian on
1:38:39
Instagram and he said he would do the podcast.
1:38:41
I was like, yo, come up, Wilkerson.
1:38:42
Yeah, yeah. I was like, dude, let me know
1:38:44
when you want to do it. That would be sick.
1:38:46
And another person we got to have on is John Wagner.
1:38:49
That would be cool too 'cause I don't know if I formally really
1:38:51
met him or talked to him but. Everyone wags is a good dude.
1:38:54
Yeah, that'd be cool too. Amazing driver.
1:38:57
Yeah. So yeah, no, I was just
1:38:59
interested in that 'cause it seems like that must have been a
1:39:02
pretty big learning experience for you and then working with
1:39:06
Matt Walden and all that. So there's a lot of people that
1:39:09
are listening to this podcast that are dreaming of doing
1:39:12
things like you are or like I am.
1:39:14
So it's cool to have them be able to hear how people got into
1:39:17
it and stuff like that. That's.
1:39:18
Probably one of my favorite things to talk about and like
1:39:21
the kind of effect that that has on somebody else.
1:39:23
Like I know off the top of my head, there's like a few friends
1:39:27
of mine with aspirations and dreams to compete like maybe
1:39:30
professionally one day. So like, I don't know, hearing
1:39:33
stuff like that is always pretty nice.
1:39:36
Just to know that it really just takes.
1:39:40
And then one day, you're just Pooh.
1:39:42
And you gotta, you gotta just put the work in and go where you
1:39:46
think you're gonna learn. You know what I mean?
1:39:47
Like who was on the podcast that one time that had a crazy like.
1:39:53
Farooq 'cause we had we. Had Farooq on here and that guy
1:39:56
was. A whole ass professional.
1:39:57
We had Mike Power on here. We had Kenrick.
1:39:59
Remember that story? No, I've seen Kenrick, like more
1:40:03
times outside of here than you. Yeah, right.
1:40:06
That is insane. But Kenrick's story is cool
1:40:09
because like it just seems like everything like chances kept
1:40:12
coming up for him to to like learn or advance and he would
1:40:16
just take them. He's like, fuck it, I'm just
1:40:17
going to go help change tires at former drift and I'm just going
1:40:21
to do this. It's like you have to take the
1:40:22
opportunities or you're not going to make it where you hope
1:40:25
to one day. Kenrick cracks me up bro he's
1:40:27
mad calm all the time. Oh man, I got a story for.
1:40:30
You we'll just we'll. Just throw it.
1:40:32
That's good. The Dunlop days, man.
1:40:34
The. What?
1:40:35
Dude, what's the? Dunlop.
1:40:36
Back in the day, dude, Dunlop gave a bunch of US E coasters,
1:40:41
Brian Walden, Damien Bagley, I think Chelsea was in on it.
1:40:47
But they were feeding us Drifters fucking like two or
1:40:51
three or 400 tires a summer. And we'd all just pow wow and
1:40:56
grab the tires and then just go and drive and then for free or
1:41:01
yeah, for free, for free, for free.
1:41:03
And then Dunlop, this is back when like FD was just starting.
1:41:07
And I believe what had happened was they were feeding all of
1:41:10
these tires. They saw that there's a there's
1:41:13
a movement getting ready to happen and Dunlop, you know,
1:41:17
they F1, you know what I mean? Like they make a killer tire.
1:41:20
I run star specs till the day I die right so.
1:41:23
So does he. I only ran him one time and then
1:41:26
the car broke but I I am interested in seeing how they
1:41:29
are. But we would get truckloads full
1:41:32
of them and they'd distribute them out and they're all free
1:41:35
and everybody get to drive on them and FD.
1:41:41
They, Dunlop, I believe, went to FT and was like, we want to be
1:41:44
the sponsored tire, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
1:41:45
And then FT was like, I think they wanted a lot of money and
1:41:49
Dunlop was like, well, we're already feeding all of the
1:41:52
drivers tires. We're not everybody's fucked.
1:41:56
They just pulled tires out of drifting.
1:41:58
Never, never again where we sponsored.
1:42:01
I to this day I don't know if any driver has been sponsored by
1:42:04
Dunlop period since then. Like they FD put in such a bad
1:42:10
taste in Dunlop. Good job FD.
1:42:11
Now that. Falcon.
1:42:15
Now we are Kendo. Yeah.
1:42:17
Damn so how long was that going on for?
1:42:19
Like. I want to say like two or three
1:42:22
years. Oh my God.
1:42:23
Yeah. Because like the forehead, like
1:42:26
the Southern boys would come up and get theirs.
1:42:28
So they was for like everyone, you know, whoever was on the
1:42:30
deal and I for I forget exactly what it was.
1:42:34
I've had a couple of head injuries since then with that
1:42:37
damn UTV. I saw that you had a helmet on
1:42:42
in the video, so that's. Yeah.
1:42:44
Yeah, I flipped it with Nick Swan in it.
1:42:46
Oh my God. There's like 400 stitches from
1:42:49
here to here. He broke his neck or his back
1:42:52
and his shoulder. Yeah, we can't get in there with
1:42:55
you, bro. I'm not getting back to what I
1:42:57
said. Earlier.
1:42:58
I'm not getting that back, yeah. I don't know.
1:43:00
If I'm getting the side by side thing with Tony it.
1:43:03
Was on. It was on pavement, that's why.
1:43:05
That's even worse. Oh my gosh.
1:43:07
Like we were sliding it and it caught traction and end over
1:43:10
ended itself. But Dunlop, Dunlop is one of
1:43:13
those things or one of those brands that I like because of
1:43:17
the heritage of it. The Dunlop logo is cool.
1:43:21
You drive under Sukuba, it says Dunlop.
1:43:23
Yeah. Like and they make a really
1:43:25
sticky tire. Yeah, they make.
1:43:26
What kind of tires? Were they make tennis rackets
1:43:28
Star specs. What?
1:43:29
Yes. Full star specs.
1:43:31
Just 400 or? No, I think, no, I don't think
1:43:34
they were giving out the star specs.
1:43:36
I think they gave us a certain amount of star specs and they
1:43:38
were all for our fronts and then it was DZ 10 ones.
1:43:42
Which is that's also a good tire.
1:43:43
I ran that tire. That was one of the first nice
1:43:45
tires I ever bought was a DZ 101 for my Integra.
1:43:48
They were kind of loud on the road, but they were good.
1:43:50
You know, I'm glad you told me this because I always dude, I
1:43:54
would always think to myself, why are there not more tire
1:43:57
companies sponsoring drifting? Are they stupid?
1:44:00
Right. Or what?
1:44:02
And then stories like this. Well, we were all pretty upset
1:44:05
about it because like, you know, that's when Brian and Wagner
1:44:09
were driving FD, Matt was driving FD, Damien Bagley,
1:44:13
Chelsea was driving FD or no, that was nopy shit.
1:44:16
That's, I don't know, they're all running together like.
1:44:20
We. We ran, we ran.
1:44:22
I was crewing for for Matt and Dennis Marzanas and Nopy.
1:44:28
Fuck. Dude, it's just so long, I
1:44:30
can't. Yeah, 'cause.
1:44:31
That was long ago. I don't.
1:44:33
I don't know who was doing FD and who wasn't, but I know it
1:44:36
wasn't. I mean, maybe the first couple
1:44:38
years a lot of people were doing it.
1:44:39
Yeah, but Nopi I know is a lot of people did that.
1:44:43
Yeah, and they supplied the tires for that too.
1:44:46
And it's just so I just kind of got in on my homies deals, you
1:44:51
know what I mean? Like I got some tires for
1:44:53
helping out, you know? That makes me feel good because
1:44:56
I feel like that's always. Dude, I I just.
1:45:01
Happened to be somewhere. I hope there'll be like a second
1:45:04
wave of like tire companies that are just like, you know what?
1:45:06
Maybe I saw that podcast in the Dunlop.
1:45:09
Yeah, yeah. Come back, Dunlop.
1:45:11
Formula Drift just fucked it up with Dunlop and that's the
1:45:14
reason no tire company ever wanted to do business again.
1:45:16
And they got a cool logo that should say.
1:45:18
Yeah, I. Don't know.
1:45:19
I feel like it would be a good idea for like certain team like
1:45:22
Front Street, obviously Front St. they they need a full tire
1:45:26
sponsorship. Why?
1:45:27
Do they? They don't they.
1:45:28
Don't they? Literally sponsored by
1:45:30
Accelerate. No, no, no one has a full tire
1:45:33
sponsorship like that. No one hands out.
1:45:34
I don't know. A discount.
1:45:35
Yeah, you get a discount. I don't know if anyone in in
1:45:38
forming drifts is different, you know, like I don't know what the
1:45:40
fuck's going on there, but I'm just saying.
1:45:41
Like he paid for all his tires. That's what I mean.
1:45:44
Like what the fuck, dude? Like it's crazy.
1:45:47
Like, I mean, I'm, I'm also a big proponent of like grassroots
1:45:51
drift teams that get a lot of like, like Front Street, like
1:45:55
other like animal style in their prime, like teams like that.
1:45:59
I'm like, companies should be focusing on that because that's
1:46:02
what all the kids are watching. That's what they, that's what
1:46:05
they're aspiring to be like. I feel like tire companies
1:46:08
should just aim for those, for those teams because it would be
1:46:11
a good idea. And like, how much fucking money
1:46:13
are you really losing? There's fucking like 4 drivers,
1:46:15
you know what I mean? Like and and they and we can't
1:46:17
afford to drift every fucking event.
1:46:19
So I don't know, it's just crazy to me.
1:46:22
But because and then you hear stories like that and he's like,
1:46:25
yeah, they're just giving tires. Dude, it was amazing.
1:46:27
It was amazing. We would go out like to Damien's
1:46:30
house and his entire basement was full of tires.
1:46:34
They probably smelled like Pep Boys and dude dude.
1:46:37
I. Love that, tires everywhere.
1:46:39
RIP Pep. Ceiling and like that's crazy.
1:46:41
Everybody's names were written on them.
1:46:42
They come get your load and then like and then a load and then a
1:46:47
load would get shipped to import and then the Maryland boys would
1:46:50
come up and get those tires and take them down.
1:46:52
Oh, so you guys had a tire cartel?
1:46:53
Yeah. Like this is.
1:46:55
Right. Yeah.
1:46:56
This is tire mafia and they were Dunlops.
1:46:58
They smelled good burning. Malcolm I I had, I had the
1:47:03
Patreon members ask some questions.
1:47:05
Can you find like? Those are the ones that we are
1:47:07
going to, really. They're all pretty good.
1:47:09
They're all good. Hell yeah.
1:47:11
Dude, I'm sorry for some of these questions.
1:47:12
Dunlop wait, Elijah, Blue Bro, this is my boy who has moved
1:47:17
here from Hawaii. Elijah stopped by here.
1:47:19
All of them up now. Can you put one up?
1:47:22
And we cannot do that. Or something.
1:47:25
Tony's just gonna read through all of them and then fucking.
1:47:27
Whoa, Jesus Christ. Perfect.
1:47:32
What's your thoughts on LS on the LS swap craze?
1:47:34
Are you for it or do you prefer to keep the spirit of the car in
1:47:37
it, Example GDM motors and GDM cars, et cetera?
1:47:40
I like this question because this is something that I.
1:47:42
Would This is the most legitimate question Elijah's
1:47:44
ever asked, because he's usually just like, yo, where's the S13
1:47:47
you bought me? So yeah, I guess basically how
1:47:51
you feel about LSS. So I had one of those, OK, I had
1:47:58
a LS350Z. OK, It's actually I hate.
1:48:03
This thing. You still.
1:48:04
Have it? No, I got rid of it but.
1:48:07
It comes. Back here dude.
1:48:08
It's probably the only car I've driven to where my shoe melted
1:48:13
to the fucking floor. That's how many laps I got.
1:48:15
Like the fucking thing just kept going and going.
1:48:18
I couldn't fucking kill it so. So so.
1:48:21
Why do you hate? It because they sound like shit.
1:48:24
Yes, the truth. There it is.
1:48:27
Can't you just like up the Rev limiter to like 9000 and just
1:48:30
pray that it lasts like like have you ever yo but.
1:48:34
Then, but then it's not. Gonna sounds good.
1:48:35
Yeah, Sounds in the circle track motor that's in Ben's RTR that
1:48:39
we, we picked up that Benz RTR from Cletus McFarlane.
1:48:44
We ran that car for him for a month.
1:48:48
He did a drift drift thing for a month, just every day at a
1:48:51
racetrack. Driving.
1:48:52
Oh wow. And it's got a circle track
1:48:55
motor in it with ITB is it's a NASCAR motor for all intents and
1:48:58
purposes. It's pretty gnarly.
1:49:01
I would say that's probably the best sounding, yes.
1:49:03
Wait, wait. Wait, yes.
1:49:04
I drove the other day so I was like.
1:49:07
That's got like baffling. So that it's not because is.
1:49:11
It an. LS.
1:49:13
No, it's a Ford mode. OK.
1:49:14
So I don't, yeah. That thing's probably.
1:49:16
So big right away Ford's sound better than L s s.
1:49:19
Yeah, like definitely 100%. Yeah, my wife had a RTR Spec 5
1:49:24
that had an illuminator in it with a blower on it.
1:49:27
Vaughn's a good friend of ours, so he was like, yo, I got this
1:49:30
car and then we ended up with it and then I blew it up.
1:49:37
Blew it up. Yeah, yeah, it had a little,
1:49:42
little mishaps with it. Well, he was literally trying to
1:49:44
kill it so. I did it, lost the tune and I
1:49:49
was beating on it. And I feel like, why do I feel
1:49:51
like I know the story? Maybe I'm getting deja vu.
1:49:54
Yeah, I might have. You know, it sounds like you're
1:49:57
trying to forget this fucking car so badly and now we're just
1:50:01
digging it up. Like it was a fun car.
1:50:03
It was a really fun. Car.
1:50:04
So it's safe to say that you prefer JDM engines and.
1:50:07
Yeah, yeah, for sure. I mean, if if it's a competitive
1:50:11
thing, like definitely probably should put an LS in it.
1:50:15
I mean, I don't know, though Dylan Hughes's car is really
1:50:17
good. You know, it's a Brad Dan's car.
1:50:21
I don't know you just the LS is just the torque is.
1:50:26
But now my car makes torque instantly.
1:50:28
Like we figured out how to make the Jay-Z just scream and act
1:50:33
have the exact same characteristics.
1:50:34
Torque in instantly. Like, you know, Rich's 3/4 was
1:50:39
like 840 horsepower, 20 lbs a boost.
1:50:43
Wow. Yeah, dude, like The thing is
1:50:44
retarded, you know what I mean? As far as reliability goes
1:50:48
though, you'd still say. Super reliable.
1:50:50
It's not even pushing. It's a 1500 horsepower motor.
1:50:53
It's, it's, it's, it's we're only he, only we're talking
1:50:56
about the Jay. Z yeah, it's it's still
1:50:58
reliable. Yeah, of.
1:51:00
Course, of course, man, Frankie, what the fuck do you think
1:51:02
you're talking about? Bro.
1:51:04
This is a Toyota. Product High horsepower engines,
1:51:07
Yeah, you need LS Jay-Z. I'm gonna go with that Jay-Z,
1:51:12
but. But with the biggest smile on
1:51:14
his. But you by the way, money down
1:51:16
and bet which one would be more reliable?
1:51:18
I don't know, some people would say.
1:51:19
I would just say that the the turbo brings a lot of heat and
1:51:22
it brings a lot of complications like the the it's the kiss
1:51:26
theory. Keep it simple stupid.
1:51:28
So like the the more simple of an engine you have, the easier
1:51:34
it's going to be at the tracks. You know what I mean?
1:51:36
Like, you know, like, yeah, it makes a ton of power.
1:51:39
My that my 350Z made like 404 hundred and it it just it was
1:51:44
fun, you know, like, see, that's it was it was great because I
1:51:47
could afford the tires. Like now it's like I have to
1:51:50
take 10 tires anywhere I go. You know what I mean?
1:51:52
Like it's it gets it gets one or one or two laps at E town to for
1:51:58
the whole course. If I do full course it gets
1:52:00
maybe a lap lap and 1/2. That's OK.
1:52:03
So a, a friend of ours was in the we were I was in the discord
1:52:06
the other night and a friend of ours, Paxton, he has a he has
1:52:09
like a coyote powered S14 Cool. And he was like, yeah, usually
1:52:15
he has an accent. Oh, I'm so sorry, Paxton.
1:52:19
Usually I'll get like. Once you apologize, I knew it
1:52:25
was going to be better. Usually I'll get sorry in
1:52:28
advance two to three laps and I'm like 2 to 3 laps.
1:52:32
Yeah, out of a 295. And I'm like.
1:52:34
Out of a what? Like a 295 drifting relapse from
1:52:38
I'm. Good.
1:52:39
That's not fun for me. Personally, that sounds like
1:52:42
hell. That sounds like a waste of
1:52:43
money. That sounds like the EPA is
1:52:45
gonna knock on my door. I think 3:50 to 4:50.
1:52:48
Somewhere, but if you go to a prepped racetrack, like I can
1:52:52
get like I did a NJMP last year for that fuel fest thing and I
1:52:59
was getting decent tire wear there and it was billowing smoke
1:53:03
everywhere. So I I would get back and I'm
1:53:06
like, dude, it's all third and 4th gear at that place.
1:53:09
I get super fast and I'm like, wow, I don't have to change my
1:53:15
tires, let's go again. That's that's awesome.
1:53:19
What? What layout did you run at NGMP
1:53:22
out of curiosity? Was it lightning or Thunderbolt?
1:53:24
I think it was. Thunderbolt.
1:53:25
Thunderbolt Wisdom. I think that's the one we might
1:53:28
have played with on Asetto, but yeah, the the one with the long.
1:53:31
Straight to a, right hand to a. Right.
1:53:32

1:54:47
Tony. After looking at your car,
1:54:49
what's your like? What was your inspiration like
1:54:51
to build to build cars The way they look, you know, the way,
1:54:54
the way you make them look like. I feel like like what I like.
1:54:58
Yeah. It's because I feel like you
1:54:59
have a lot of the same like style that I like, but I don't
1:55:05
know it's I'm trying to get, I'm trying to get an idea of where
1:55:07
you where. Like those are T37 VS bro.
1:55:10
Yeah, it's like JDM. Just goodness.
1:55:14
And you know what it was too you, You kind of came up right
1:55:17
when all that was that. It's like peak I feel like.
1:55:19
When like elite JDM, Nick was bringing in all that stuff,
1:55:24
dude, and. Dude, his fucking place was
1:55:26
huge. Yeah.
1:55:28
Hell yeah, now I want to do some fucking long.
1:55:31
Go to the in car one I. Want to do some fucking long
1:55:34
drifts? This is fucking.
1:55:36
Good, I'm sucking up on a GTR. I'm like go faster.
1:55:39
Pussy. I'm screaming at him.
1:55:41
I'm like, dude, if I have to fucking break right now.
1:55:44
Yeah, that's annoying. I couldn't.
1:55:45
I could imagine. They're going to.
1:55:53
Be drifting behind a GTR grip and you're just catching up to
1:55:57
him. I.
1:55:57
Kept seeing him look in his side view.
1:55:59
Yeah, like I'm. Looking at me gone.
1:56:01
Yeah, I'm coming. I'm like, why are you hitting
1:56:03
the brakes? Why are you hitting the brakes?
1:56:07
That's good. That's shit.
1:56:09
I want to drift some fucking fast corners.
1:56:12
Hit us with another question, Mount.
1:56:14
Yeah. What give me a most Give me a
1:56:18
memorable moment for how you got to where you are now.
1:56:22
FRS, Zach. Most memorable moment?
1:56:26
Shout out FRS Zach for being a long time Patreon member too.
1:56:29
Yeah, dude, Patreon's blowing up.
1:56:33
Most memorable moment how I got I don't even know how I fucking
1:56:35
got here. It was the.
1:56:36
Brain injuries? Clearly not How did we get here?
1:56:43
I. Feel like sometimes I.
1:56:45
Feel like I just never stop learning.
1:56:47
Like I feel like if you stop learning then you're just going
1:56:50
to be stagnant and wither away. You surround yourself with
1:56:54
people that are always teaching you and learn from your peers.
1:56:57
Like, you know, you guys, other people, you know, most memorable
1:57:03
moment, all of them. I'm just grateful to have every
1:57:06
moment that I've had and I wouldn't change anything though
1:57:09
for, you know, to where I'm at. And I don't really think I'm
1:57:13
anywhere. So that's.
1:57:16
How we all. Feel like build a beautiful
1:57:22
shop. Like dude, we're just figuring
1:57:24
it out day by day. I.
1:57:26
Read some of these questions before we did this.
1:57:28
Like I read them yesterday and I was thinking the same thing.
1:57:30
I was like I would never know how to answer.
1:57:32
Right now, like it's a good question.
1:57:33
Yeah, it is. I just think I don't have a good
1:57:35
answer. I'm just.
1:57:37
For some people I'm sure there is like a a moment when
1:57:40
something happened you. Know what I mean?
1:57:41
I asked everybody who's I used to before for a while, I used to
1:57:46
ask everybody who, who, who we would have on here.
1:57:49
Like was there like a turning point where you chose like, OK,
1:57:54
110% in this and in this only? Probably when his wife created a
1:57:59
shop for. Him.
1:57:59
Yeah. I was like, he probably wasn't.
1:58:01
She found when she found the shop and she was like, get the
1:58:04
fucking shit out of the garage. That's probably like, oh.
1:58:08
I guess it's 110% shit. Now I gotta do this real crap.
1:58:12
There's no. That's awesome.
1:58:13
There's Ricardo and and that's. Ricardo Slim, Rick.
1:58:16
The wildest memory of something blowing up on the Dino.
1:58:18
Here's a example of a question I didn't want to ask him.
1:58:20
Malcolm so I. Don't know?
1:58:22
You know what? Shit, you know, I don't think
1:58:26
we've ever blown anything up. On that is the best answer I've
1:58:28
heard yet. I think we rented the dyno one
1:58:33
time and a trans exploded and gear oil was all over the floor.
1:58:39
Is an auto trans and a drag car or something?
1:58:42
Some big Dick car and it, yeah. Like one of those like Funny
1:58:45
Car. Yeah, it let go and it was a
1:58:47
mess. I think that was really, really
1:58:50
it, yeah. Everything else was nothing.
1:58:53
If if anything happened, we would neither catch it before it
1:58:58
happened. It's like, Oh well, Andy's like
1:59:00
yeah, this doesn't sound right or it's not doing what it's
1:59:01
supposed to be doing. Shut it off.
1:59:02
You know what I mean? So us personally with stuff that
1:59:06
we've built or tuned, I don't think we've had anything that's
1:59:09
the best. We've had him knock and be like,
1:59:12
OK, call the customer. It's fucking knocking.
1:59:14
But that was your engine that we have no idea we bought from.
1:59:19
JB Media asks how did the business get started?
1:59:21
Do you ever foresee it getting to where it's at today?
1:59:23
Well, we answered the first question pretty good, but did
1:59:25
you ever foresee it getting to I guess where it is now?
1:59:28
Oh, I guess I don't know where we're at now.
1:59:30
So like, I think we're still you're in New Jersey mind,
1:59:35
that's what. I mean, I get that feeling,
1:59:37
yeah, I don't. But that's the feeling you
1:59:38
should have because like we're. Jaded by this stuff because we
1:59:41
get to see it every day. Yeah.
1:59:42
And like that. Same with the moment thing.
1:59:43
It's like I've had so many moments that are pivotable are
1:59:47
pivoted. Pivotable.
1:59:48
Yeah, whatever. Like.
1:59:49
That so it's like hard to put a thought on one because we've
1:59:53
seen so much, we've done so much.
1:59:54
We're we've travelled the country with our friends.
1:59:56
We've drifted like we've we've, I feel.
1:59:58
Like you would, you would, it would hinder you if you felt
2:00:01
like you got somewhere, you know what I mean?
2:00:03
Like. They would just stop there.
2:00:04
You'd be stagnant. Yeah, he's growing.
2:00:06
And. Yeah, so you always.
2:00:07
Want to feel like a thing. Like I see, I see other things
2:00:10
that other people do and I'm like, oh cool, let's see how can
2:00:12
we do that too? Yeah, that's exactly.
2:00:16
Can I do that better? Maybe a little bit or fuck, that
2:00:19
was hard. I can't do it at all.
2:00:20
Fuck it. Ken Fuji's got a pretty
2:00:24
intricate question here, yeah. This is This is a.
2:00:27
Ken what are you cooking bro? I'm looking into getting an ECU
2:00:31
master black. What ECU do you recommend Slash
2:00:34
prefer as a tuner? Re driver is there something
2:00:37
else you would suggest? SRRV.
2:00:42
ECU masters black is great it it it really depends on your budget
2:00:45
and like what you want to do with it.
2:00:47
ECU Master's, Black Link, Altech, Motech, all those are
2:00:53
really great. EC US, It's kind of like the
2:00:55
ones that we like a lot. I I always say when people ask a
2:00:58
question like that, I always go to where are you gonna go get
2:01:01
tuned? And what does he want you to
2:01:03
use? Right, Right, 'cause I feel like
2:01:04
that's, that's like the most important thing.
2:01:06
If you don't know where you're gonna go get tuned, maybe you'll
2:01:08
start looking into that first. Yeah, you know, but.
2:01:13
Sometimes I just there's like so many different offering.
2:01:18
Or if they offer, offer some cool shit inside the car.
2:01:20
Yeah, yeah. Like, like that's what I mean.
2:01:22
Like some EC us now are trying to just one all in one like.
2:01:28
It's, well, that's what's in my car, the R5, it's all in one PDM
2:01:31
ECU. Oh.
2:01:32
That's wire, yeah. So that's.
2:01:33
Sick. Yeah, it's, it's really nice.
2:01:35
So like I can pull data logs, it's got oscilloscope in it.
2:01:38
Like I can fix shit when I can see everything that every wire
2:01:42
is doing, what voltages are doing.
2:01:45
I can send an e-mail to Andy while he's sitting at home
2:01:48
eating dinner and like. That's what Josh was.
2:01:50
Doing Josh. I'm over here on the power of
2:01:53
sea. We're in Kentucky.
2:01:54
My. Shit has Wi-Fi bro.
2:01:56
That's so funny story. What do you mean?
2:01:58
Like you could just fucking Wi-Fi bro.
2:02:00
Like literally so. And he could be in his car and
2:02:03
say and. He's on the dyno right?
2:02:04
Fucking doing something and I'm in the shop fucking with my car
2:02:08
and he's turning the fucking injectors off and I'm like what
2:02:11
the fuck is going on with my car?
2:02:13
Like this shit ain't working and I'm like freaking the fuck out
2:02:16
and he comes walking in laughing his Dick.
2:02:19
He's like. Disabling shit like I'm like
2:02:22
what are you doing bro? That's.
2:02:25
Amazing. Imagine Andy just sitting there.
2:02:27
He's like, yo watch. He's all.
2:02:28
Yeah, that's pretty much what. You and then you just hear from
2:02:32
like Tony. Sitting there smiling.
2:02:35
Yeah, like I'm screaming like this is a it was only a cooling
2:02:39
issue. Why is it not running?
2:02:40
Right. Fuck is going.
2:02:43
On. Tyler Holzmann, in your opinion,
2:02:46
what is the next big swap? Sort of how the Jay-Z and LS
2:02:50
dominate the common swaps these days.
2:02:52
That's kind of a cool. Question.
2:02:54
Ah, I really think the B 58 would be a good one.
2:02:56
Is that that that? BMW engine, yeah.
2:02:58
That's what everyone's talking. About I mean in line 6.
2:03:01
Yeah. I mean, Papadakis has got a lot
2:03:03
of good stuff coming with that like.
2:03:06
Is that the Super engine too? Yeah.
2:03:08
It's a lot of BMW. Anything with the number 40?
2:03:13
Well, 'cause we can't rely on Toyota to give us a actual two
2:03:16
car. Again, Yeah, yeah, they can't do
2:03:18
anything. They have to rely on everyone
2:03:19
else. RIP except if you want a
2:03:22
Corolla. Yeah, now I feel like that would
2:03:24
be a popular swap if you were like a Honda guy.
2:03:27
Yeah, what? Like the GR Corolla thing.
2:03:28
I'm just saying like, why is that the one car that they were
2:03:31
like, yeah, we'll make this one, but all the other ones we'll
2:03:33
just. Look what they say and let me
2:03:34
make a call. I'll talk to them.
2:03:36
Like. Yo we got drifting to do bro
2:03:39
make I took. Make an aluminum block 2 J
2:03:41
please. Thank you.
2:03:44
That would be with. 4 bolt mains.
2:03:45
Thanks. So is.
2:03:46
That basically is that basically what this BMW is?
2:03:49
It's. Aluminum.
2:03:49
And yeah. Damn, I got to look at.
2:03:52
I know, I know. Papa Doc has made a video about
2:03:55
like tearing that engine down right and all that.
2:03:57
Yeah, so I got to check that out.
2:03:58
Well, and so did real St. J.
2:04:01
Jay, that was a. Guy Yeah, dude, that was a
2:04:03
really good video. Dude he makes awesome videos,
2:04:06
very informative. Is that real street?
2:04:10
Is that alpha podcast? I don't.
2:04:14
I don't know if they have a. Podcast.
2:04:15
I don't think they have a. Or they or or if that guy may
2:04:18
have gone onto the podcast. 'Cause I would, I would listen
2:04:21
to that. 'Cause that guy's awesome.
2:04:22
I listened to a good chunk of it.
2:04:23
That guy's. I never knew.
2:04:25
I thought Real St. was just like a a performance product website
2:04:29
always. And then I saw those videos on
2:04:31
YouTube and I was like, damn these guys.
2:04:32
Not dude, those guys are high power fucking.
2:04:35
YouTube. That that's always just what you
2:04:37
saw. Like I always Texas 2K type shit
2:04:40
like. Fast as fuck.
2:04:44
All right? Cool, that takes care of.
2:04:45
That shout out Tyler Aiden Tyler, nice car, buddy.
2:04:48

2:04:49
but I really like this post idea.
2:04:52
Cool. Yo, wait, wait, wait, wait,
2:04:54
wait. If Aiden's not going to talk

quick Look, he painted his car yellow.
2:04:59
A he. Needs a school bus stop sign.
2:05:05
Yes, that would actually make me sick.
2:05:09
My Z was yellow so I thought that about my Z like you stand
2:05:13
of it with my homies. Just put the button out.
2:05:15
That would. Actually be kind of funny, Kent
2:05:20
Juan asks. Is there a bridge between
2:05:21
grassroots and FD type drifting? If so, what would it look like?
2:05:24
This question. Comes LZ World Tour.
2:05:26
Oh, that's a perfect. Answer yo.
2:05:28

2:06:00
Yeah, it's it's disco fries, but Canadian version.
2:06:03
Is wild. And they have it at McDonald's.
2:06:05
It's. A party in your mouth, dude.
2:06:07
I had it when I went to when the fuck was that?
2:06:11
I don't even know. But when I was in Montreal, I
2:06:13
had it every other McDonald's we were at and they were doing
2:06:17
some, you know how like McDonald's would come out like
2:06:20
the McRae like some some something random tester thing
2:06:23
They had like Buffalo poutine. They had like garlic poutine.
2:06:27
I was like. Fucking had all edge.
2:06:29
It's. Kind of weird, I never even
2:06:30
heard that. God.
2:06:31
Damn, I'm hungry dude. Yeah, I know.
2:06:33
Me too. I know.
2:06:34
We're gonna read some questions on the on the Instagram.
2:06:37
We posted up today and then we'll and then we'll get out of
2:06:40
here, get some food. OK, cool.
2:06:42
We weren't bombarded today. Why is why is Australian Malcolm
2:06:47
Jordos saying Carl has aura? Hello Jordos, how are you doing
2:06:50
buddy? Hope you're doing well.
2:06:54
Ah OK, we got some retarded questions.
2:06:56
Yeah, I don't even know. We, we, we had such a great
2:06:59
podcast so far. How about one dumb one?
2:07:01
Frankie, come on. One dumb one.
2:07:03
You want me to pick one dumb one?
2:07:04
OK. Who would win in a fight?
2:07:08
That's the dumb one, right? Go ahead, go ahead.
2:07:10
Who would win in a fight? Iron Man off the Perk or Batman
2:07:14
during No November. Oh my God, you had.
2:07:21
To have put some effort in that. That's Michael C Cone.
2:07:25
I'm out of you, buddy, because there's no way.
2:07:29
Yeah. OK.
2:07:30
So I don't. How do you answer that Right, I
2:07:34
know you're seriously trying to guess.
2:07:36
So Iron Man off the perk would be like Robert Downey.
2:07:40
Would that bring him to like 1990 Robert Downey?
2:07:42
Yes. Oh yeah.
2:07:45
OK, then if you're in that era, who's Batman from that era?
2:07:48
1990 would be the first Batman. Well, for me, so that would be
2:07:54
fuck who was who. Who was the first Batman?
2:07:57
Keaton, Michael. Keaton Oh, yeah, yeah.
2:07:59
Yeah. Michael Keaton, yeah.
2:08:00
So him with No, not November. Oh, he might be dangerous.
2:08:03
Yeah, no Robert Downey. Fuck some shit up.
2:08:05
Robert Downey's mad. I'm thinking Robert Downey.
2:08:07
Robert Downey knows how to party in that area, bro.
2:08:10
Oh yeah, he does that. What?
2:08:11
About you, What do you think? Do you think?
2:08:13
I'll go with Robert Downey, yeah.
2:08:15
Yeah, I think he would snore a line of coke off the fucking off
2:08:20
Batman after he beat the shit out of him.
2:08:22
Yeah. Yeah, like, yeah, easy peasy.
2:08:25
Best dead battery slash alternator slash starter
2:08:28
stories. Why is Brendan asking this?
2:08:32
That is so. It's like does he know my my
2:08:34
shop is a black hole for batteries like.
2:08:36
Everyone's been made. All the time does.
2:08:38
Whoa, whoa, maybe he does that. Why?
2:08:39
Why? I don't know, it's like we're on
2:08:41
a fucking magnetic force field. It just drains every fucking
2:08:44
battery, really. Brand new ones.
2:08:45
It's like what the? Fuck, I mean, it could, it could
2:08:48
be you could be in some weird fucking area.
2:08:50
Dude, I don't know, It's just like say that and I'm gonna, I'm
2:08:52
gonna go to work tomorrow and my forklift.
2:08:54
Will be dead. Oh.
2:08:55
What kind of forklift y'all got? Oh no, a hyster.
2:08:59
Oh no. What?
2:09:00
Is it hyster? Hyster.
2:09:02
Yo, you need to. How come we don't?
2:09:03
Have chill out dude, I'm not putting one of those things in
2:09:06
here. I would fuck around with that
2:09:08
shit so much. Ask Tony about important
2:09:11
intelligence days. How was the car scene back then
2:09:14
pretty? Good question.
2:09:15
That's actually a good question. Oh, the car scene back then was
2:09:21
it was good. It was good.
2:09:22
I liked it back then. It was easy.
2:09:24
And yeah, it was good. What?
2:09:25
Year was was that around? 2008, 2009, 2010, 2000.
2:09:33
That was right when I was getting the cars.
2:09:35
Yeah, yeah, I thought it was. There was no takeover shit,
2:09:40
right? There's none of that going on.
2:09:43
Now here's the real question 'cause this is what I always
2:09:45
think about from that area. Stance wasn't really a thing
2:09:48
yet. No.
2:09:50
But it was. Starting a little bit.
2:09:52
But it wasn't really a thing. There was no.
2:09:54
So cars look normal. Yes, Yeah, yeah, we've heard of
2:09:58
the standard they. Were like negative camber.
2:10:01
Whoa. Gonna wear my tires.
2:10:03
Literally. Literally dude and.
2:10:06
You know that tire cost? $349.
2:10:09
Yo, we should just. You paid for the tire and you're
2:10:11
only using this much. 2010 and after is gonna be That's from
2:10:17
now on. That's known as the after
2:10:19
stance. Is it?
2:10:21
Yeah, and then before is BS before stance, literally,
2:10:27
because I remember going to car shows and the cars were normal.
2:10:31
Yeah. And then all of a sudden, dude,
2:10:32
and nobody was angry. No one was angry.
2:10:34
It was weird. Yeah, liked each that was the
2:10:36
biggest you. Know what it was?
2:10:38
Instagram didn't exist. Nah, Nah, Nah.
2:10:40
That was what it was. That's why earlier I said easy,
2:10:43
because it's like I could probably just go somewhere and
2:10:46
not have to worry about somebody going well.
2:10:49
Why though? It felt like, when did you do
2:10:50
that? I.
2:10:51
Saw what you did on Instagram the other day.
2:10:54
What did you? I saw what you were doing.
2:10:55
Why did you paint it like that? Yeah, you're right though.
2:10:57
No, it really was different. Like shit was different and it
2:11:01
was honestly was better. I have a story about this.
2:11:04
Yes. OK, so I do Donuts in my parking
2:11:08
lot, right? Yes, you told me about this.
2:11:11
OK, Yeah, My parking lot is paved.
2:11:14
There's not a lot of rocks. There's no gravel.
2:11:15
It's like a nice parking lot. I had a customer get irate that
2:11:19
I was doing doughnuts in a parking lot and that dust may
2:11:22
have gotten on his car. I was like, dude, it's rubber.
2:11:28
It rains. You know, like, you know, like
2:11:31
what kind of? Car was it As you were saying
2:11:34
this to me, I could. Totally BRZ happening.
2:11:37
Oh, it's Oh, and it's the it's. The.
2:11:38
Beer that was wrapped, it was like, so it was.
2:11:41
Protected. This is a protected car and and
2:11:43
there was a a cameraman standing in front of the car, so like.
2:11:47
Even more protected. Like, like, you think that guy's
2:11:50
getting pelted? With shit guy, he's standing
2:11:53
there with a fucking camera. So annoying, but yeah, so this
2:11:57
is so this is a good example of like something that a shop owner
2:12:00
has to kind of I don't want to deal with, but yeah, this is
2:12:03
what happens like no matter how careful and right you try to be
2:12:08
with everything the 2nd. You have a little.
2:12:10
Bit of fun doing something, someone's going to go wait.
2:12:14
Wait, hold up. Hold up, what the fuck are you
2:12:17
doing? I don't know, I feel like
2:12:19
nowadays it's a lot easier to just fucking.
2:12:22
If if it. Truly, truly is like a harmless
2:12:26
feat. Which it seems like it was the.
2:12:28
Yeah. It sounds like there's.
2:12:29
Nothing wrong with you and it sounds like it.
2:12:31
Sounds like the Internet would now swallow the opposite party.
2:12:36
Oh yeah, probably if it. Yeah, if it was something.
2:12:38
It's like, stop complaining, Karen.
2:12:39
Like that's that's what the Facebook comments would go nuts.
2:12:43
Yeah, at least in my opinion. I think that's what happened.
2:12:45
If you're truly wrong or correct or whatever Vice.
2:12:48
Versa but. One time I was doing Donuts out
2:12:51
in front of the parking lot. It's like 5:00 and you know,
2:12:54
you've seen the parking lot. Well, there's traffic then.
2:12:56
Yeah, Fucking Karen is screaming at me.
2:12:59
What the? Fuck, that's amazing.
2:13:01
At all. That's just I'm not lifting.
2:13:04
Now keep going. Not I know.
2:13:06
She. Leaves calls the shop.
2:13:10

2:13:12
You're doing burnouts we can't see across the road, blah blah
2:13:16
blah. Blah, going off.
2:13:18
Right first. Of all, she should have just
2:13:19
called the cops. I did.
2:13:20
I was like, lady, look, this is private property.
2:13:23
I don't mean to be disrespectful, but fuck off.
2:13:26
Yeah, with all disrespect, fuck off.
2:13:28
Morning Cat. Call.
2:13:29
Call the cops. Got it.
2:13:31
Cops. Jesus.
2:13:32

2:13:34
because because after Chris got his tune, one of the tags was
2:13:38

2:13:41
Me and me and Chris are like because, because here.
2:13:46
Yeah, you don't do no. Right.
2:13:48
Yeah. But then there Chris does like
2:13:49
the. Tiniest burnout.
2:13:50
It was just like a little. Hey, Chris, right of the trail
2:13:55

2:13:58
What? What was that?

2:14:22
And then thing Ben Drift's big stang guy.

2:14:29
RTR. OK.

2:14:33
He should. He should drive that thing, Ben,
2:14:35
You should drive that. You know you still own that,
2:14:38

2:14:40
Best sounding Sr. and Jay-Z set up turbo exhaust, manifold
2:14:44
exhaust, just the sound. Nothing, nothing out performance
2:14:48

2:14:52
going to Sr. it, you got to VE it.
2:14:56
That's a that's a big jump it. Sounds so good.
2:15:00
Price big. Jump so good but.

It didn't used to be. It was $500.00 for the head.
2:15:07
Yeah, now, now it's fucked. Yeah, yeah, they I think JP is
2:15:11
the reason. I know JP is the reason it's
2:15:12
fucked. We're like 500 something.
2:15:15
Bug. Yeah.
2:15:16
Sub 1000 that's for sure. Now are they crazy?
2:15:18
How crazy is this? Well I never looked into it.
2:15:20
Like how? How involved is this?
2:15:21
Shit, that's pretty easy. Yeah.
2:15:23
Yeah, machine the oil pump. Use Ave. oil pump.
2:15:26
Buy a mass works kit or line kit.
2:15:29
It's pretty simple. And it just slaps on.
2:15:32
Yep, bolts right on. So OK.
2:15:35
Like a normal Sr. But I would say anything V band
2:15:40
turboed anatomy exhaust sounds really good.
2:15:46
For Sr. Yeah, for Sr.
2:15:47

Yeah, let's do that. And and and your whatever and
2:19:12

2:19:13
Yeah. I want to hang out.
2:19:15
Come down, check out the Every time I go there, I usually just
2:19:18
go in the front door, give them keys and leave 'cause I'm like,
2:19:20
why the fuck have I been been out of the shop for three hours?
2:19:22
But now I'll come by and I'll try to find you back there.
2:19:26
But you're not saying hi to Tony when you go in there.
2:19:30
I'm usually buried in work and usually.
2:19:32
And I'm usually not even supposed to be out for that
2:19:34
long, so. We have.
2:19:35
A. The whole shop is lit when
2:19:37
you're gone for that. I'm sure it is.
2:19:39
It's fucking like. You know, I'm sure Malcolm's
2:19:41
throwing shit around. They start playing Frank
2:19:43
Sinatra. Yeah, that.
2:19:44
Sounds fun that actually. Sounds Malcolm cracks a beer up
2:19:47
in 9. 45 that is probably Yeah, that's what I'm worried about.
2:19:53
Sometimes he'll walk out of the and you just hear and he's like,
2:19:57
time to get it started and then he walks in with an energy drink
2:19:59
and I'm like, all right, I'll see.
2:20:00
I'll see what you did there. All right, Tony.
2:20:02
Thanks man. All right, no problem.
2:20:04
Thanks, dude. All right, guys, there's been
2:20:07
another episode. Thank you so much.
2:20:08
Peace. That was fucking.
2:20:12
That was fun. Yeah, man, thank you for going
2:20:15
out. No problem.
2:20:17
Yeah, I like driving. I love driving.
2:20:19
Too. Yeah, I got to.
2:20:21
Go to fucking New York today. All right, well, Carl said.
2:20:27
I can't say that I'm having a bad month or whatever.
2:20:31
What'd he say during the podcast?
2:20:33
Somebody said why does Frankie always say he's having a bad
2:20:36
month? Yeah, so this this outro is
2:20:37
going to be a little bit more bright and fun.
2:20:40
Yeah, joyful. Yeah, so.
2:20:42
Well, Speaking of joyful, Tony's a great guy.
2:20:45
I like. Tony's awesome, man.
2:20:46
I don't think we ever really had a we.
2:20:49
We definitely never had a conversation like that before.
2:20:51
And that's my first time meeting him.
2:20:52
Yeah, I've known him for a while, but yeah, we never like
2:20:56
talked. So that was really awesome.
2:20:58
I was kind of nervous before that podcast, not gonna lie.
2:21:00
Really. Yeah.
2:21:01
Well, I don't know why, but I was, I think because Freedom of
2:21:05
Motorsports is such a pretty well known shop.
2:21:07
So anytime I every time there's a shop owner that comes on here,
2:21:10
I'm always like. Oh, I'm scared.
2:21:12
And then you meet them and you talk to him and I'm like, oh,
2:21:14
this is my best friend. So yeah.
2:21:16
So it ends up always being a great episode.
2:21:18
But yeah, those are the only ones that I'm always a little
2:21:21
nervous for. So.
2:21:22
But yeah, it was fun time. Thanks, Tony, for coming out.
2:21:24
I really enjoyed talking to you and obviously related to you on
2:21:28
a bunch of subjects. So that was nice.
2:21:29
And getting to talk to someone that was from a little bit older
2:21:34
of a time period than we were. Yeah, he started in 2005. 2005
2:21:38
So yeah, that's like five years before I even I knew.
2:21:43
What a drift car was. I mean, I knew what it was, but
2:21:45
it's like I didn't even think about it, you know?
2:21:48
So yeah, that was cool hearing talking about the the car shows
2:21:53
and how it was 'cause I don't know that.
2:21:56
It was just stock height cars. Yeah, people don't remember
2:21:58
that. Like thank God I got to see that
2:22:00
that on the tail end right before it stopped because
2:22:03
literally you would go to car shows and it would be like it
2:22:06
would be like fast and furious cars.
2:22:07
Like they were still normal. Like the height was normal.
2:22:09
The wheels weren't weird. Crazy colors with cool wheels.
2:22:12
Yeah, now it's like. But no fitment.
2:22:15
And then there was like, I don't know, I guess it was from like
2:22:17
2012 to 2000. Like, I don't know, current day,
2:22:21
maybe I don't even know. It might be current day, but
2:22:24
cars are just slammed. If the fitment is not perfect,
2:22:27
then no one cares. Like and it's just kind of weird
2:22:30
because the cars don't really drive well like that.
2:22:34
So it's. I feel like back then it was
2:22:35
like, yeah, this shit. It's a cool colour and it's
2:22:37
fast. Nice sound system and it's fast.
2:22:40
Yeah, so the golden days. Yeah, it was cool.
2:22:43
What do we got going on in the shop?
2:22:47
Our Thrash Racing shipment is coming on Tuesday, so all extra
2:22:52
inventory that hasn't been reserved is up for grabs
2:22:55
obviously, so we have a few seats left.
2:22:58
Do not hit us up on Tuesday, please.
2:23:00
Yeah, I'm telling everyone Wednesday or Thursday.
2:23:03
Yeah, Tuesday is the day that I'm going to take to myself to
2:23:06
organize all of it and organize the ones that need to be shipped
2:23:10
out and picked up. And after that, we'll put out a
2:23:13
updated list of what's up for grabs.
2:23:15
So hit us up Wednesday or Thursday.
2:23:18
Thanks to BOP for sending us a bunch of food.
2:23:21
Bop that chocolate is dangerous. I thought western doing from
2:23:24
Netherlands. I have to stay away from that
2:23:26
chocolate because it's I ate half the bar last night after
2:23:29
the podcast. Yeah, after the yeah, and I've
2:23:33
taken straight bites out of it. I was gonna, dude, I was gonna
2:23:35
eat the whole thing. I was like I need to put this
2:23:37
down because I. Yeah, I saw you.
2:23:39
That was the first chocolate bar I had in.
2:23:40
Like I want to say it's two years now, but maybe it's not.
2:23:43
I would say maybe push in two years.
2:23:45
Yeah, so I was a. Rabbit on that.
2:23:47
Yeah, I fucking with, I was having withdrawals and that was
2:23:51
that. But yeah man, thanks.
2:23:53
You actually sent us food that I actually like instead of just
2:23:55
sending me granola bars, so that was nice of you.
2:23:58
And thank you, Seth. When for these stickers.
2:24:00
Those stickers are sick. Garage, hot car.
2:24:03
Yeah, we forgot to give Carl his stickers.
2:24:05
Oh shit, yeah, Carl. Oh, we'll see him today.
2:24:08
Yeah, we have another podcast we're recording today.
2:24:11
Guys, let us know how you enjoyed this podcast because we
2:24:13
had a blast and it was one of the first guests we had in a
2:24:16
while. Well, that's a lie, but it's one
2:24:19
of the first guests we had out of state in a while.
2:24:22
That we didn't really know it all.
2:24:24
Yeah, it's been like a month or two, so we're trying to get back
2:24:27
to it. Like we've just been so hectic
2:24:30
over here. I haven't been able to reach out
2:24:31
to many people, so, but we reached out to a few people over
2:24:34
the last couple weeks and we have some stuff set up.
2:24:36
So the podcast coming forward should be pretty interesting and
2:24:40
different, so keep an eye out for that.
2:24:43
As far as anything else going on in the shop, I'd say it's pretty
2:24:46
much business as usual right now.
2:24:48
We we have made some progress on the loading dock area, the
2:24:51
waiting area, showroom area are still in shambles.
2:24:54
We are trying to finish them as soon as possible.
2:24:58
Our goal, I would say our general goal, is to have this
2:25:02
done for the fall. Yeah, I think that's doable.
2:25:05
Yeah, because we want to. We would.
2:25:08
We would still like to do some kind of open house or grand
2:25:11
reopening type thing. So yeah, keep an eye out for
2:25:16
that and pray for us because we still have a lot of shit to do.
2:25:20

2:25:24
