0:00
A couple weeks ago, Frankie was like, oh, we're going to go to
0:02
Texas and record some podcasts. I think it'd be a really cool
0:04
thing Tuesday. You still down for Texas Friday
0:08
to Sunday? I said of this week.
0:11
Yeah lol Logan Davenport drove 3 1/2 hours to get there and.
0:18
She's like, get in. I'm like, how?
0:20
And she's like, oh, just stand up.
0:21
He'd be fine. I'm like, dude, this is not
0:23
comfortable. And then she peels out.
0:26
Me and Eddie were like moving around.
0:29
I'm trying so hard not to like put my ass in someone's face,
0:32
but that egg. Roll, though, was rolled like a
0:34
blunt. That car story was one of my
0:36
favorite car stories and what's going on everybody welcome back
0:40
to another episode of the After Hours podcast.
0:42
February is here, January is gone, and my car's still not
0:45
running, so that's a bad sign. But moving forward, on this
0:49
episode, we basically give you all a sneak preview of what is
0:54
in store for the podcast we recorded on our trip to Houston,
0:58
TX over the last weekend. Me, Carl, and Eddie both or all
1:04
went down to Texas, hung out with a bunch of people, nothing
1:07
but good vibes. We got a lot of content.
1:10

1:14
All of it is going to be available on Patreon first.

1:41
covered our trip, what we did, who we did podcast with and
1:45
yeah, just kind of told you how the weekend went.
1:48
So that's all I have to say about that.
1:54
Enjoy. But before we jump into this,
1:57

2:40
subculture. They sell actual print
2:42
magazines, something that we all are dying to have these days in

Links are in the description below.
3:00
Just a reminder, we are giving away products every month over
3:02
on factionmotorsports.com. Every $5 spent gets you one
3:05
entry and Faction Motorsports Merchant products get you double
3:08
entries for our website raffle. This month we are giving away a
3:11
set of front and rear bash bars from Limitless Auto Fab, so make
3:15
sure to get those orders in for your chance to win.
3:17
If you don't know what a bash bar is, that's probably a good
3:20
thing, but it's better to know now than to find out when it's
3:23
too late. A bash bar is a term Drifters
3:25
use for a vehicle's crash bar. This is the first thing the
3:28
front and rear of your car touches when it makes contact
3:31
with something it shouldn't. And let's face it, the cars we
3:34
use for drifting are sometimes older and past their prime.
3:37
The metal is weak and just waiting for an excuse to fold.
3:40
Limitless bash bars can potentially save you thousands
3:43
in repairs on a frame machine. Limitless Auto Fab is a
3:45
fabrication company located in Illinois that we have been
3:48
working with for years. They offer the best bash bars in
3:51
the game, which is a part that you might not think you need,
3:53
but trust me, as I'm speaking from experience, you will regret
3:56
it when you get into that first crash when drifting and your
3:59
whole front end crumbles. Now this raffle only applies to
4:02
the bash bars they carry, so make sure to check out their
4:04
website or our website to see if they have what you need.
4:07
I also heard that they are releasing bars for a few more
4:09
vehicles soon, so keep an eye out for that.
4:11
This giveaway will cover those as well if they are released,
4:15
I'd say in the next month or so. Are we recording now, Mal?
4:28
Going Yeah, that's a nice fucking jacket.
4:30
You, Anna. This is sweet.
4:31
Welcome everybody to the Faction After Hours podcast.
4:33
We're here to bring another episode.
4:34
Let's get that out the way because yeah, I got a brand new
4:36
jacket on. Look at this.
4:37
Hey. This shit is hard, dude.
4:39
Not just the front two business in business in the front party
4:41
in the. Back yeah it came out really
4:43
good shout out Panther printing they.
4:44
Look. Oh, Panther made this.
4:45
Of course, that's why it looks awesome.
4:47
I was scared when they were coming.
4:48
I was like, I hope they didn't fuck this up.
4:50
I really hope it looks exactly like I.
4:51
Want I think Corey's going to fuck you over.
4:53
It doesn't matter what. Everything Corey has is cool.
4:55
Think about how I am, you know, like, yeah, 1 little thing could
4:58
be wrong. I'd be like, I didn't want the
5:00
name to be that big. I didn't want this to be it.
5:02
Looks it's. Something exactly how we.
5:04
Went about it looks kind of weird.
5:05
I don't know what it is, it's just the.
5:07
I think it's just because it's so new.
5:08
Yeah, I think it's and also I think it's The Dickies jacket.
5:12
It just kind of looks a little weird.
5:14
You. Bought it because it.
5:15
I bought it because he had one. Well, Eddie's one.
5:18
Wait. First of all, this is not a
5:20
guest episode. We have the whole gang here.
5:22
We just did the Texas pods, and now we have me, Frankie, Eddie
5:25
Malcolm's on the ones and twos. This is a full room in here
5:28
today. Yeah.
5:29
Yeah, chill episode. But yeah, his Eddie's Dickey's
5:32
jacket was a little more worn so and and his is not.
5:36
This has got some like Kevlar in here.
5:38
Yeah, it's not. I could.
5:39
Probably take a bullet in here. It's.
5:40
Just like it's perfect, you know?
5:42
Asked Malcolm. I went outside and tried it to
5:44
see if it was warm. Oh.
5:45
I thought you meant to take a bullet.
5:47
It's nice. Oh yeah, yeah, no, it's nice.
5:49
It's actually warm, like how pale my hands are from being
5:52
outside and like beating up. And you got the big cuffs too.
5:54
Malcolm's got small cuffs on his jacket because he's so tiny.
5:57
Are you serious? Yeah.
5:59
What? We we found out his were from
6:01
Bangladesh and the rest of ours are Mexico.
6:04
That's what it is. Yeah, different.
6:06
That would make sense. Dude, there's an old photo of
6:08
Malcolm. What?
6:08
There's a there's an old photo of Malcolm.
6:10
And Malcolm was like, he's from Bangladesh.
6:12
I saw it and I was like, Oh my God.
6:14
It wouldn't make sense like. It was the, it was the H2O
6:16
photo, dude. It was the H2O photo.
6:18
Which? You used to have like clear
6:20
glasses and stuff. I like the glass.
6:22
He looked a little fucked up back.
6:23
Then he had like a bowl cut, kind of.
6:26
Yeah, I missed the glasses. Though you want you want me to
6:28
wear glasses? Yeah, bring them back, OK.
6:31
All right. Well, we just got back from
6:32
Texas. This one's probably going to be
6:35
short, just. Because if he shows up with
6:36
glasses tomorrow, that's fucking gay.
6:38
And you can I. Am not I am not doing that.
6:39
Don't do that you. Better you better put him.
6:42
The fuck? On he just shows up.
6:43
I just walk in. He's got glasses on.
6:45
Hey. Or that Christmas bonus is gone
6:48
out of here. We get those.
6:51
OK, Moving forward. Dude, one thing about the Texas
6:55
strip, we're going to get right into that because yeah.
6:58
We're going to try. To keep this short, but you know
6:59
how. Carl is with telling stories.
7:01
She wasn't there again. Yeah, fuck me.
7:06
Yeah, yeah, you got too good at your job and now?
7:09
That's literally. What, you can't leave?
7:12
Apparently, Yeah. But dude, I will say right off
7:15
the RIP, I'm going to put this out there because of how nice of
7:17
a gesture it would have been. But I did not let it happen
7:20
because I feel like it was a little like I didn't want him to
7:22
have to do this. But Nando from an honorary fat
7:27
cat, or I don't know what Nando does, floats around.
7:29
He should be on that I. Don't care.
7:31
Nando's his own person. Nando was going to get you
7:34
boots. He was asking me for your shoe
7:35
size and I was like, why are you going to buy him boots?
7:39
And then he was like cuz I just. He didn't get to come and.
7:41
Where's the Where's him like? Southern hospitality, you know
7:44
what I mean? I was like please do not.
7:45
Nando, I appreciate the gesture and I am a size 8.
7:50
Oh, he was 8 1/2. See, Eddie would have fucked you
7:53
over. We've and and boots.
7:54
I feel like it's a true to size thing.
7:56
And then yes. It's it's hard to so aside.
7:59
For me not I would have told him my size, which was was an 8 1/2
8:03
and then I would have been like, Oh yeah, Malcolm's an 8 1/2 and
8:06
you wouldn't have gotten seen boots.
8:07
Carl would have just got. Yeah, you've.
8:08
Seen me coming in here with some fresh square toes dude.
8:11
Oh my God. Pissed Nando, where you?
8:14
But dude isn't that crazy like people, people thought of
8:17
Malcolm while we're out there. Asked me before we left, too.
8:20
He's like, yo, I, I gotta ask you what size she was, Malcolm.
8:23
I gotta, I was like, no, no, no. I already know you're playing.
8:25
Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
8:27
And like that was just one of the things of everybody being so
8:30
nice. Yeah, like we got there and it
8:32
was pretty sick. So did I say this, and I think I
8:35
said it on the way out, but I said Houston is kind of like
8:38
Chicago mixed with. Like you said it 4 fucking
8:40
times. It's like, it's like Chicago in
8:42
like California. Every podcast that we recorded.
8:46
No, I didn't say it once on a podcast.
8:47
Yes, you did. No, I didn't.
8:48
You said it on Jimmy. 'S did I.
8:53
Maybe in Jimmy's? No, I said, I said, Oh no, I
8:57
think you're confusing. I think you're confusing it.
8:59
I said it. Yeah, no, I said that style wise
9:02
the cars, but I'm talking like the people and the way it feels
9:06
like not not car related. Well, there was just a lot of
9:08
people. We saw a lot of people, dude,
9:10
everywhere we went, they, they like made it like a, a point to
9:15
like, hang out. Yeah.
9:16
It was like a thing. Like even even Chris, like the
9:19
one who whose house that is where Chris and Kip's house.
9:22
Chris, it was crazy. Call the table.
9:23
We didn't even have to do it. You know how nice that is?
9:26
You went out of your way to do that shit.
9:27
Well, I mean, I did mention the table, but yeah, no, he did find
9:30
one and. Well, like, you know, it's still
9:32
like you got to do that. Malcolm doesn't know about that
9:35
whole oblivion situation either, so it's good to recap this
9:38
because that that House situation is awesome.
9:41
Oh dude, Malc. So that was the first place we
9:44
went, Yeah. So.
9:45
Wait, first of all, the the whole thing, because I feel like
9:50
a lot of people were kind of confused as to when and how this
9:52
happened. But a couple weeks ago, Frankie
9:54
was like, oh, we're going to go to Texas and record some
9:56
podcasts. I think it'd be a really cool
9:57
thing. We could do it, but not at an
9:59
event weekend. I was like, OK, whatever.
10:02
Yeah, sure. And then on Wednesday.
10:05
Oh, OK. On Wednesday, I'll pull up the
10:08
fucking text because I, I don't have, we don't have many texts.
10:13
So now I'll actually be able to like, read them down.
10:15
Read them. Oh, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah.
10:18
Tree. Yeah.
10:19
Let's talk about Let's talk about the tree.
10:21
Sorry, I just don't know why. But yeah, Christmas tree just
10:23
moving around. Tuesday is when Frankie said
10:27
this. So, like, that was last Tuesday.
10:30
Hey, at least it was Tuesday now Wednesday, right?
10:33
Could have been Monday, Could have been Sunday.
10:36
I think I told you we were going to the end of the month.
10:38
I told you that. You told me two weeks.
10:40
Prior. Maybe there was no following up.
10:42
You didn't even give me an inclination.
10:44
That was like, that was me planning everything.
10:46
Out. It was like the Halloween.
10:47
It was like Halloween, Eddie. Like when I thought we almost
10:50
got away with not going to a haunted house.
10:51
You thought? Then right at the right at the
10:55
finish line, fucking shot clock. This guy's like, yeah, right
10:59
here. Here we got every Tuesday.
11:00
Buzzer beater Tuesday. You still down for Texas Friday
11:05
to Sunday? I said of this week you what?
11:13
The response was yeah lol what? What?
11:19
What are you talking about? I said boy, what the hell?
11:21
And then he just said you a down ass bitch.
11:24
They said yeah I guess I'm down. And then and then all of this
11:26
shit happened. Freaky.
11:28
For a second he was like, no, I don't know, it might have to be
11:30
next weekend. Because I'm watching a dog.
11:32
Thankfully, Ken was able to watch the dog.
11:34
But I started messaging everyone already and then you go and.
11:40
Then I had to dude. Luckily that was the smoothest
11:44
standby experience I've ever had.
11:45
We even got to fly on the same flight going home.

13:05
and like Quan and them hung out with me on the discord, whatever
13:07
having a seto or whatever. Like 4:45 to the plane I get on
13:12
the plane I fly. Thankfully, Brad's awake because
13:15
Brad is usually awake at that time.
13:17
Brad's a cool guy. Brad is sick.
13:19
You got to meet Brad. Yeah, Yeah.
13:20
That was. Grandma, NASA, Grandfather,
13:22
Nazi. Well, I don't know if he wants
13:24
all that info out there, but. His last name is Hartzog.
13:28
You're right, it does sound like a Nazi last.
13:30
Name Brad's the nicest fucking dude ever.
13:33
Yeah, picks me up. We have kolaches, which before I
13:37
left the last time when I painted his car, we didn't get
13:39
to have kolaches. You also didn't get to have one.
13:42
I. Couldn't tell you what that is.
13:43
I don't. Think you would like it?
13:44
I'm sad we didn't get to try them.
13:45
You would love it. Yeah, you you would have loved
13:48
the shit out of it, Eddie. It's the most Filipino thing
13:50
ever. Hey, me and Eddie got
13:51
Whataburger so. After Brad told me that
13:54
Whataburger is kind of dry and mid, it's terrible.
13:57
It is dry and mid, so it was yeah, it's it's not.
14:00
What did you get? Whatever their like burger is
14:05
with cheese and bacon. I will say one thing, it's
14:09
enough food it. Was very filling.
14:11
It looked big as. Fuck, the apple pie was pretty
14:14
good. OK.
14:15
That was pretty good. And it's it's like I compared to
14:17
Burger King, honestly. Oh, OK.
14:19
Yeah, it's better than Burger King, but not by too much.
14:22
So they all got that Malcolm and me and Brad had done like a
14:28
plethora of things, like you guys were were flying here and
14:32
me and Brad, I think the first thing we did was, yeah, we got
14:35
Kolachis and then after that we went to his house, hung out a
14:37
little bit. I played with the dogs, got
14:39
covered in dog hair immediately. Then we went around and tried to
14:42
find tie rods that were from like a different car to work on
14:45
Brad's car 'cause we didn't have to go buy like GK tech ones and
14:48
wait. So we got that done, completed
14:50
by the way, all of that, like we put it all on, figured it out.
14:54
No more steering vine done. What else did we do after that?
14:58
After that I had Tex Mex as well.
15:00
Yeah, saw that. Yes, we didn't eat yet.
15:03
I was. I was living life.
15:05
I mean Eddie didn't eat till like 6:00 at night.
15:07
I was scared because it was like 2:00 and Brad was like, I'm kind
15:14
of hungry and I was like, I'm kind of hungry too.
15:15
But I'm scared that these guys are going to want to get
15:17
barbecue and then we're going to be full.
15:19
We're running. Thank God I got Tex mex.
15:23
It was sick. I had like 2 modellos.
15:25
The modellos there tasted fucking amazing.
15:30
I don't know, it just tasted really clean.
15:32
More crisp. Yeah, kind of.
15:35
So like I, we, I had that and like some fucking fajitas and
15:38
the steak was fucking amazing. Our rental car situation was an
15:42
experienced by itself. All all of that was going on and
15:44
then we finished eating at 3. Brad was started driving back to
15:47
his house and I was like, yeah, we could probably chill there
15:49
for a while because you guys still did not land and we were
15:54
going to meet you at the other place and I was still like, now
15:58
we got time. I had to talk to a wall.
16:00
That was crazy. So while I was having.
16:02
The time of my life. You guys were talking to a
16:05
Teledoc? Yeah, that's kind of.
16:07
Nuts. And it was not fun.
16:08
What's? The name of the rental country.
16:09
Rental car? I couldn't tell you.
16:10
Priceless. No, it wasn't.
16:12
It wasn't. It it should have been called
16:14
worthless. Yeah, you would have thought
16:16
they would have had the signage anywhere.
16:17
I think they. What was the experience?
16:19
What made this bad? What made this bad?
16:22
I OK, well, the first thing is I couldn't find the name of the
16:25
place where we're going anywhere on the e-mail, anywhere there's
16:28
no, there's no brand name sketchy.
16:31
So I'm like, OK, and then it's like, call this number when you
16:33
land. I'm like, can you just tell me
16:35
what to do? But no, it didn't.
16:37
So I called the number and it's like you'll see, you'll see a
16:41
white man or a black man outside.
16:43
Get in it. I'm like, no, what?
16:46
Yeah, no. And then like it would tell me
16:48
more thing and then would hang up and I'm like, OK, I guess
16:50
I'll just keep calling this number back over and over again
16:53
until I memorize what it's telling.
16:54
Me to do sketchy as fuck. So then we get back.
16:57
So we took the wrong rental car van to the place, obviously.
17:00
So we got back in, it came back, and then we're just standing
17:04
around. We're looking, we're like, all
17:06
right, look for a white van. Is it the same van we got in the
17:09
spaceship? Yes.
17:10
That motherfucker was Wheeling. So we went to 1 van and it was
17:13
the wrong one, right? That was the first one, was the
17:15
wrong one. It was like a different.
17:16
Hotel, different hotel. And then we looked at the next
17:17
one because it it was going to say hotel on it 24 hours.
17:21
Look for the white or the red black van with hotel on it.
17:24
And I'm like, OK, found it. I'm like, is this for the rental
17:28
car company? She's like, I don't fucking know
17:30
where you're going. What the hell?
17:32
I'm like, I don't know either. I can't lie to you.
17:34
And then I was like, wait, I have an address.
17:35
Is this the address where you go?
17:37
And she's like, that's me. I'm.
17:39
Like. I'm like, OK, And I'm looking at
17:42
the people inside and I'm like, it's packed.
17:44
It's packed. And she's like get in and I'm
17:46
like, how? And she's like, oh, just stand
17:49
up. He'll be fine.
17:49
I'm like. Dude, it was, it was, it was the
17:52
kind of van, it was a Ford like cargo van that you would.
17:58
Three row. Four row.
17:59
It, it is like 4 row. It's like a five row.
18:01
Yeah. But the, the area that Frankie
18:04
and them are describing where you they're standing is the
18:07
doorway. Well, because I thought it was
18:08
like a bus, yeah. It ain't a bus.
18:11
Described it and it would look more like a bus.
18:13
When I saw it, it was like the thinnest aisle.
18:16
Yeah, so. So I'm standing up there and I
18:19
don't know who's with who, but there's a mom and a.
18:22
Kid just. Bumping everybody.
18:24
There's multiple children, there's a mom, a kid.
18:26
I'm like, and she goes, can they all stand right there?
18:30
And and we're like, and she and I felt bad, but they were like,
18:34
yeah, yeah, sure. And I get in, yeah.
18:36
My ass is in someone's face. My fucking Dick is in some other
18:38
forms. I'm like, dude, this is not
18:40
comfortable. And then she fucking peels out.
18:43
Me and Eddie are like fucking moving around.
18:47
I'm trying so hard not to like put my ass in someone's face,
18:49
but it's like, so you're so packed in there, drop someone
18:53
off a hotel, whatever. We get to the place.
18:55
So I'm like, OK, we made it. Fuck, walk inside.
18:58
I'm like, all right, I'm going to talk to someone like a normal
19:00
rental car place. Walk inside.
19:01
Everyone just goes into a closet, individual closets.
19:04
I'm like, what was that? And then I was like, wait, where
19:06
do I go? This is so it looked dystopian.
19:09
It's 100% dystopian. It was so it looked so weird.
19:13
It was so white in there. Yeah, it's all white.
19:16
No, there's no deco. There's like the most.
19:19
Yeah, and just closets. Liminal decor.
19:22
Ever. And it's only four closets in a
19:24
room that could have fit fucking 30 of them it.
19:26
It was so weird. And so I'm waiting, waiting,
19:29
waiting, waiting. It takes so long.
19:30
How long were we standing there? 30 fucking minutes before.
19:33
You got in the closet? Yeah, it's 30 minutes. 30
19:35
minutes for them to just rent a car and I'm like OK, finally it
19:39
stops. I go in, press the button,
19:42
nothing. I'm waiting 5 minutes and then
19:43
another person leaves. I go in that closet, I press
19:45
that button. So now I'm just standing in
19:46
between two closets waiting for someone to answer.
19:49
Someone answers, I go in. I'm already so mad because I'm
19:52
like this whole process. And this is post flight.
19:54
I'm pretty, I'm going to be pretty irritated, yeah.
19:57
Spirit Airlines too. Spirit and it was a it was a
19:59
rowdy flight. It was, put it that way, a
20:01
little stinker there. Yeah.
20:02
Yeah. So.
20:05
Mine was awesome. The.
20:06
Guy knows I'm mad, you know, So he's making it go kind of fast.
20:09
He's trying to make it easy. So anyway, when I, when I paid
20:12
this thing, you know how it goes.
20:13
I I paid for the insurance, mind you it was it said total $80.00
20:20
but it's never the total, right? It's never.
20:21
Well, yeah. Well, the fees and.
20:23
Yeah, even though it says everything, but it's never the
20:25
total. So then I go in and he's like,
20:26
all right, that'll be 140 bucks. I was like, what happened to 80
20:29
bucks? He's like, where's that?
20:31
And they had like a little screen because they want to show
20:33
you, show your phone on the screen so they can see it.
20:36
Show your ID on the screen that's like inverted so they can
20:38
see it. Oh, it's like a little.
20:40
Dude, it's insane. Like a little microscope.
20:41
Yeah, it's like it's kind of fire.
20:42
So I'm like, so he's like, I don't see that anywhere.
20:45
I'm just like, it's right here. And he's like, oh.
20:49
And he's like, yeah, well, that doesn't include yeah, what the.
20:52
Yeah, he's like, yeah, that doesn't cover the liability
20:55
insurance. I was like, all right, dude,
20:56
whatever, just write it up. He's like, oh, do you want to
20:58
get the. I was like the cheapest shit,
21:00
bro. Like just Get Me Out of here.
21:01
We need to go. This is all so so so scary.
21:06
Yeah, The whole time I was like, I'm going to get fucked no
21:08
matter what I do, so just Get Me Out of here.
21:11
I haven't got fucked yet. But it felt that way.
21:13
It felt like no matter what, 100. $40 Somebody better be
21:15
fucking you. That's kind of crazy.
21:17
So I walk out. Then you got to take because.
21:19
The car was a piece of shit dude for 140 bucks.
21:22
Let me get into the car. Yeah, the car looks OK.
21:24
It look. It looks like a normal car, but
21:27
that does that tell you a lot? People drive cars like that
21:31
every fucking day. And it had 60,000 miles. 60,000.
21:35
And I was like, this is a rental car.
21:37
Every bushing in that car was cooked.
21:40
So we got in the car. Whatever, we met up with you.
21:43
Yeah. So now we're at.
21:45
So now we're at the Oblivion Clubhouse is what I'm going to
21:49
call it. Dude, Malcolm, this team, do you
21:52
know team Oblivion? I've heard.
21:55
We talk shit about them on the one I think Jed.
21:57
Davis even claims that he's on that team, right?
21:59
That's like. I'm just kidding.
22:01
They didn't talk shit about us, but that's what they're.
22:03
That's what I thought for the longest time.
22:05
I think that team claims Jed Davis too.
22:06
So they're they're pretty, but. We got to, I missed Jed, we did
22:10
not get to see Jed, and I feel like if we planned this better
22:13
we fucking could've. I would have.
22:16
Loved to see Jed dude. Jed should have just.
22:18
Not necessarily. Jed was asking where we were.
22:21
But we did have a podcast schedule.
22:22
Yes, but we had time to see Jed and Jed would have done.
22:26
Like, Jed could have hanged out with hung out with Jimmy anyway,
22:29
so yeah, he probably should have came up anyway, but yeah.
22:32
It did do 3 hours to them. I found this out.
22:35
It's not a big fucking deal. Yeah, it's nuts because Malcolm,
22:39
the car that we are going to go see and like have a podcast
22:43
with, our first one was Logan Davenport.
22:45
Didn't live there, drove 3 1/2 hours to get there.
22:49
Yeah. Yeah.
22:50
Through traffic with his buddy, he has he has he.
22:54
Towed the car there. He has a family.
22:55
He towed the car there. I was just like this isn't?
23:00
And he was like, we're going to meet at the Oblivion House.
23:02
I'm like what? Yeah, I've never, I thought that
23:04
they just hung out. I thought they he's like, I've
23:06
actually never been here before. I'm like, what are you talking
23:09
about? Like, like what are you, what
23:11
are you talking about? You never been here.
23:12
Like you just asked and this is what came to fruition here
23:16
because like, it was wild. The room was green, the car was
23:19
green. Did you notice that the.
23:20
Garage is crazy. The garage was sick.
23:23
They built vacuums. There was a one garage attached
23:25
to a house attached to a warehouse.
23:27
And by warehouse I mean just. The way it's Malcolm is the old
23:30
I-beam building, maybe like our height building.
23:35
And then another garage behind that.
23:37
Another garage behind that that's.
23:38
Fucking deep, dude, deep. And and we walk in and I'm like,
23:44
oh, so they must have got these cars together for this, I guess.
23:46
That's crazy. No, no, those cars are just
23:49
there at all times. It's like.
23:51
It's the clubhouse. Yeah, it's like kind.
23:52
Of crazy like cool cars. It's it's suck.
23:55
You got to be so envious of like the fact that that friend group
24:00
has that, that they're so lucky to have that.
24:03
Yeah, and they like seemed like good people too.
24:04
Memories, they're probably go endless amount of memories in
24:08
that space probably with how sick that is.
24:10
And they were like, yo, we cleaned because I was like, yo,
24:12
it's really clean in here. And he was like, oh, we cleaned
24:14
it. We cleaned the fucking shop.
24:17
Yeah, because. I could imagine how messy it
24:19
was. I felt so bad at this point.
24:21
I was like, everybody here did mad work for us to be here.
24:24
I thought we were just going to chill.
24:26
I had like a 12 pack of Modelos and it was like, like, thank you
24:31
like so much. And then we met Kip.
24:34
Kip was there. It's cool.
24:35
The last time I met Kip was when we were in Japan and that's why
24:38
I keep making the joke where we talk shit about them because
24:40
that was the first thing he said to me and I thought we did talk
24:43
shit. About So he thought we'd talk
24:44
shit on the podcast about them, about oblivion.
24:46
We could have. That's what I said.
24:47
Yeah, I don't know. I was like Carl's like, maybe
24:49
that's. What I said when we were in
24:51
Japan, I was like, I don't know, dude, but at the time I'm just.
24:53
We don't talk too much shit though so probably.
24:55
I mean like I said it so well, if I said it, I said it, but
24:58
like I don't know if I did. So I was just like, Oh my bad
25:00
dude. Chris should happen.
25:02
Chris is the one that lives. There Chris is the one that
25:03
lives there too, yes, but Chris's car is the pink car in
25:07
the back. Yes, yeah, yeah.
25:10
The pink Texas car, if you've seen it a knuckle up.
25:12
The 180 with all the blue vinyl on it.
25:14
The blue vinyl on it, yeah. I forgot what the Instagram was
25:17
but. Level something Level 6.
25:20
Level 60 MU. Something like that.
25:22
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's it.
25:23
But then like there was like JZXS there, yeah.
25:26
There was a slam pickup truck. There was a.
25:28
Slam square body there, like notched frame.
25:31
All I could think about was Derek.
25:32
I was like, Derek would fucking cream over this shit.
25:34
There was a lot of cool cars, the one that the Sylvia in the
25:37
bag, that was just cool. Yeah, all of it was cool.
25:39
Yeah. And like all the people that
25:40
were mad at you, I was like, damn, these are my people.
25:42
Like there was smoking. I could smoke cigs in the garage
25:44
at the fur pot. Yeah.
25:45
Malcolm. First podcast like I had to do
25:48
it. I got bad news for you.
25:50
The camera cut out. It doesn't matter.
25:53
I think it it got him, it got him.
25:54
Yeah, it was the 1st 15 minutes. He lit him a cigarette already,
25:57
dude. It it it's it was a rare thing,
25:59
but we they were all smoking in there right and I was like, I
26:03
could I could probably like this right now and then just lit it
26:06
up. But he.
26:07
Yeah, he took a matches. I felt bad because like, yeah,
26:12
it's like making smoke. I know that.
26:14
Hopefully the smoke doesn't bother you but.
26:17
Logan I was born in a. Logan.
26:18
That's what I thought. Logan, the one we were doing the
26:21
podcast with, who was very, very nice.
26:23
Well. And I was going to say he pulled
26:25
his car in and then, yeah, it looked at how Immaculate.
26:28
Yeah, it looked Immaculate. Everything head to toe was like
26:32
error, correct? Yeah, like nothing was shaved
26:35
that didn't need to be shaved. And we got a car check coming
26:37
when that one. Yeah, that one's got a crazy
26:39
long car check because but he said that he was an ex smoker.
26:44
Oh, I don't care. So you were like this is fine.
26:47
If you tell me no, because like when I was smoking the
26:50
cigarette, I could see it's like kind of lingering and I felt
26:52
really bad. So then I like brought it over
26:54
here and then when I brought it over here, the smoke was just
26:57
travelling right down under the I saw that at Logan coming from
27:00
underneath under the under the table and going to Logan and I
27:03
was. Right to his Oh my.
27:04
Fucking God, like I got to, I got to, I got to cut this short,
27:07
like cut it short. But then I wanted another
27:09
cigarette. So I was like, fuck.
27:11
And then, I don't know, I that's just like doing crack in front
27:14
of your buddy who just swore off crack.
27:17
Like it's not really. I was not so I just, I just, it
27:19
was a cool. He's like we keep smoking.
27:21
It was a cool, it was the ability to do that was cool, but
27:26
do. You remember anything specific
27:28
from that conversation? That cars out the gun.
27:32
Oh yeah. One sag on it back right on the
27:35
Type X wing. That's it.
27:37
I. Love the body shoveling though
27:38
cars out the gun like some people would be like what?
27:41
But yeah, he didn't cut and buff it.
27:42
He didn't see the. Finish and like, I don't know, I
27:48
paint pretty regularly now. So like you could just
27:52
appreciate the finish. There's not any hint of orange
27:57
peel. There's Yeah, it's really nice.
27:59
Little to no dirt at all. He was like, there's actually,
28:03
it's not perfect. There's a dirt nib right here.
28:07
Fucking points on the roof. He knows exactly on.
28:10
The roof on the back, right? Yeah, Logan's got to be
28:14
listening on the back, right. And if this is true, I swear to
28:17
God, 'cause we were damming the other day, the back right on the
28:20
roof, there's a a dirt nib. I was like, are you shitting me
28:24
like my jobs are? I can't get any jobs that look
28:27
like this. But then again, he's in a booth
28:29
or whatever. But make sure to follow his new
28:32
Body Shop Body service ideal. Yeah, body at body service
28:35
ideal. But that, yeah, we did.
28:38
What else did I remember about that podcast?
28:40
Well, he. Very meticulous guy, very
28:44
disciplined, kind of in terms of like when he wants something.
28:47
Reminds me a little bit of Chris Kachezi.
28:48
Like his. Yeah, that whole meticulous.
28:50
Special Special amount of Tis. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
28:54
I don't know if you should say that.
28:56
Is that OK? You just called me gay earlier.
28:59
No, you, I don't care. But I don't know, Did we talk
29:02
about him being autistic? We literally called him that to.
29:04
His face, whatever, it doesn't matter.
29:05
Like I. Wouldn't have said it if we
29:07
didn't say it on the podcast 50 times like.
29:10
Yeah, he was cool. He was autistic.
29:12
Beers like and and he he was chilling, drinking, and.
29:16
Yo, he was a great. He was a great.
29:18
Great talker. Great listener, I was going to
29:20
listen to him all. Night yeah, like he was he was
29:22
really good at. Yeah, so we got to walk around.
29:26
His car is just so fucking nice. I recorded a video too about our
29:29
little escapade on my channel. And like, even just a little
29:33
like glamour shot I have of it. Like just sitting in the dark.
29:36
You're just like God. Yeah, fuck.
29:39
And we didn't know where to do it.
29:40
But the floor, Did they paint the floor green in that little
29:43
part of the garage or did they come like that?
29:45
It was not green. The walls were green.
29:47
OK, OK. The walls were green.
29:49
OK, so we decided to do it in that room.
29:52
He was talking about painting his floor green because he
29:54
wanted to make it like the JDM shops.
29:56
I would probably do that, yeah. Just whenever I get a house or
30:00
whatever, you guys got to keep giving me more jobs so I can get
30:03
a house or I'm fucked so you guys better fucking.
30:05
Bring those paint jobs in. Yeah.
30:07
But but yeah, I I thought that podcast was.
30:12
That was really good. And then we got to eat.
30:15
Yeah, Chris, again like as we mentioned, got like a table
30:18
somewhere called pluckers. Pluckers the The names of
30:21
restaurants in Texas are fire. Like they're all they all got.
30:24
Pluckers is fire. Yes, they all have names.
30:27
That place was Buffalo Wild Wings.
30:29
I didn't say it was good, I said the name was.
30:32
Good. They're good with the name.
30:33
Then again, Kip was warning us the entire fucking time we sat
30:37
down there. Oh, he didn't.
30:38
He he made it known. He was like, just no, this was
30:41
not my recommendation. But someone was mad that we
30:43
didn't like the food. Who was it, Chris?
30:45
He was like, you didn't fuck with it, man.
30:47
I'm like, not really. Like it was all right, but I
30:49
like food. I'm easy to please.
30:51
It was more of the gesture that we were all able to hang out.
30:53
Yeah, yeah, we met Zach. Triggs that night too, who we
30:56
had a podcast with a couple days later.
30:58
Zach was the one that was upset that we didn't like the food
31:00
too. No, Zach was upset we weren't
31:01
drinking with him and I had just had like 6 beers.
31:04
My stomach was the size of. 8 But we talked about, we talked
31:07
about a lot of conspiracies that night.
31:09
That was good. Yeah.
31:10
With Brad, yeah, I was hyped with there.
31:12
That was like when that was like when your friend groups meat,
31:15
meat. I was so fucking.
31:16
And then at least start talking about I.
31:18
Was like, I was like, fuck Brad. Brad's got to say something,
31:21
please, say something to Frankie and then please.
31:24
And then he starts talking about the fucking moon landing and
31:27
shit. And Brad is actually very
31:28
knowledgeable in this kind of stuff.
31:30
Yeah, I think he studied it actually, like in college.
31:34
His mom was apparently on NASA. Grandma grandma was on.
31:37
His mom is awesome. Was in NASA when they went to
31:40
the moon. Yeah.
31:41
Dude. And I was like, so she told you
31:43
it was fake, right? She's like, no, she said.
31:45
It was real. Brad is the most nonchalant
31:47
person and then does cool shit and then you just like what the
31:51
fuck I told you the T5 clip how we met me and Brad.
31:54
I don't know if you told me how you met, but.
31:56
Whatever, the way me and Brad met, we went to, we were at Mid
31:59
Pond and Diego for some reason asked me to judge some comp and
32:05
grab Brad too, and a couple other people.
32:07
And then me and Brad were standing next to next to each
32:09
other like this, not saying a word, like we're just standing
32:13
here. And then and then, yeah, we
32:16
left. We didn't say anything at all.
32:18
Frankie's outside, just letting you know now.
32:19
So he's going to, he doesn't have to come in now, Malcolm,
32:22
but he's going to come in a second.
32:24
All right, just. Because I keep going on my phone
32:25
so I don't really know what I'm doing.
32:26
Should we open the door for him? He's locked out.
32:28
We could crack it now Malc, if you want just to so he can get
32:30
in, but. Yeah.
32:31
Do you mind, Malcolm? Yeah.
32:32
Sorry. Thank you.
32:33
He needs to get something done because.
32:34
Yeah, we met Brad. Didn't didn't really what
32:37
something just well. We're hearing noises through the
32:39
computer. You want to check it.
32:43
Is it still going? Took you all the camera, all
32:49
right. Everything looks audio's good.
32:50
Yeah, audio's good. But yeah, we didn't talk.
32:53
And then after that he like joined the discord and I was
32:56
like, yeah, dude, I watched this BRZ do this back E at Speed
33:00
Sports once. That's the only thing I know
33:02
about the track. And he was like, oh, that was
33:04
actually me, The sickest driver ever.
33:06
He's the one in who was on the professional course at night.
33:11
Yeah, in the car. He's the driver of that.
33:14
The green one. That's his car.
33:16
OK. So every time Brad says
33:19
something, it's nonchalant and it turns out to be like the
33:21
wildest shit ever. And like that just has to be
33:24
like in their family because their whole family is so fucking
33:27
nice. Like his mom pulled up in a Land
33:30
Cruiser and had a fucking LS in it.
33:34
We know one side of the sand. What's the other side?
33:36
What are they? Oh, yes, we don't.
33:40
I don't know. Well, one side's from Germany.
33:41
Yeah, the other side. Flew rockets and shit or
33:46
something. Yeah, you're right.
33:47
Right we're. Going to have them on the
33:49
podcast one day. I wanted to do a Brad pod.
33:51
Yeah, I would love that. That would have been an easy pod
33:53
to. Do yeah, I I wish we well, we'll
33:56
be back either way. But anyway, so we eat that.
33:59
So we, yeah, we ate there. We talk about conspiracies, they
34:02
forget Brad's. Food.
34:03
So then they comp Brad's burger. Yeah, I'm having all these kids
34:05
that were born in 2002 tell me about how 911 is fake.
34:08
I'm like, OK, and then yeah, where?
34:11
Where? Did we go from there?
34:11
But they're able to analyze it without, you know what I mean?
34:15
If that's what the data's telling you, Come on.
34:19
Come on, dude. Let cut them strings dude.
34:22
Cut them strings. Cut them strings.
34:24
It was bullshit. It was, it was bullshit.
34:27
We talked about that whole thing, then we talked about the
34:29
moon landing and then Logan just drops the hardest.
34:32
Like you're telling me they had they went to the moon and we
34:38
were still having carbureted cars?
34:41
Yeah, that was the best one. Yeah, I.
34:47
Mean I. Guess.
34:49
That was a good one to drop. But wouldn't wouldn't all that
34:51
tech like trickle down into society after that which it
34:55
shortly? Did well do they have, I mean
34:56
they have rocket technology since the 40s.
35:00
So or did they? No, they definitely did.
35:04
They wasn't good, but they definitely did like.
35:06
Fucking launch a rocket sort of in that direction.
35:08
Yeah, maybe it'll hit. Maybe it'll hit.
35:10
Attach a warhead to it. Yeah, yeah.
35:12
That's kind of fucking crazy. Then we went to our hotel,
35:14
right? Oh yeah, then it's then it was
35:16
hotel time after that. Hotel was good.
35:18
After that I was smoked dude. I was like fuck.
35:21
Hotel was pretty sick. Everything's.
35:23
Gated in Houston? Yeah, I guess a lot of things
35:26
are gated. That's a problem.
35:27
Yeah, I guess that could. I could see, I could see how
35:30
some of those areas that I could that could be a problem.
35:32
But to be honest with you, I felt great in almost every area.
35:35
Maybe the first area we went through when we got there that
35:37
was a little bad, but all the other areas that we drove
35:40
through were they felt you felt safe.
35:42
Everybody there has a gun. Yeah, which makes me feel safe.
35:45
I'm good. I'm like, all right, well, as
35:48
long as I don't do anything. Yeah.
35:50
These motherfuckers aren't going to do anything to each other so.
35:51
Everything looks cool, everything looks good, but then
35:53
you get to an everywhere has a gate and you're like, OK, I
35:57
mean, why not, right? Why wouldn't you?
36:00
Want more protection? I guess, yeah.
36:02
But. They probably steal a lot of
36:04
cars there, though, Houston, they probably steal a lot of
36:05
cars. Well, I.
36:06
Think it's a Texas thing? Well yeah, cuz who?
36:09
Who did? We have the next.
36:11
We had Colin the next morning. Was that the next morning?
36:13
No, we had Jimmy the. Next.
36:14
Yeah, it was Kevin. No, we had Kevin.
36:17
Colin was Sunday. Yeah, Colin was Sunday.
36:19
Limitless Auto Fab is a fabrication shop and retailer
36:21
located in Illinois. They produce bash bars and catch
36:24
cans for a bunch of popular models in the drifting
36:26
community. Limitless bash bars are honestly
36:28
the industry standard right now. Fabricated from 1 1/2 inch mild
36:31
steel tube, these bars are designed to take the impact of
36:34
light collisions in order to avoid or minimize damage to your
36:37
vehicle. A must have for drift cars,
36:39
their bars also come with jacking points and optional
36:42
license plate brackets so everything you need is right
36:44
there from the start. Limitless Auto also sells catch
36:47
cans for a handful of specific models.
36:49
These cans are built in house and chassis specific.
36:52
We have used these cans in the shop with great results.
36:54
The guys over at Limitless are on social media so make sure to
36:57
check out their Instagram and give them a follow.
36:59
They post photos of all the drift cards using their products
37:01
from Front St. Drift Club to Animal Style.
37:04

Motors sports.com. This podcast is sponsored by
37:12
Ramstead MFG. They sell an easy to use wheel
37:15
fitment tool that is a massive game changer for any shop or
37:18
enthusiast looking for an easy way to check their wheel
37:20
fitment. With their user friendly tool
37:22
you can check diameter with an offset before you buy your
37:25
wheels. Gone are the days of ordering
37:27
wheels and hoping that your math was correct.
37:29
Just throw their tool on your wheel hub and dial in your specs
37:32
to see if your dream wheel clears your coilover and fenders
37:35
before committing to the purchase.
37:37
Not only can you check wheel fit in with their tool, you can use
37:39
it to check suspension clearance as well.
37:41
This is really great for Drifters who are always changing
37:43
wheel lock and adding angle to their setups.
37:46
Now you can see if those new suspension arms or tie rods will
37:49
clear your wheels at full lock before going out and destroying
37:52
your new wheels. Another feature is that you can
37:54
use two of these tools together to measure track width from the
37:57
wheel center line. About 20% of RAM sets customers
38:00
purchase 2 tools at once so they can measure track width for
38:03
various wheel and suspension setups.
38:05
I recommend this product to the everyday enthusiast and most
38:08
importantly shop owners that need a way to size wheels for
38:11
customers so that they know they are getting the right specs
38:13
before ordering a brand new set of wheels.
38:15
To get more info, head on over to ramsteadmfg.com and if you'd
38:18
like to purchase their Wheel Fitment Tool Pro, we are now
38:21
carrying them in store at Faction Motorsports and Faction
38:24
motorsports.com. We had Kevin.
38:27
Kevin Martin. Who we did a podcast with off of
38:31
Essence. Who has that red car that looks
38:33
like Frankie's but red? Yeah, that's car sick.
38:36
Yeah, and then so his father was really sick and we got to talk
38:39
to him 'cause he's like a older guy who's finishing school.
38:43
Yeah. So I was like damn, that's but
38:45
the real under underrated. Your age about.
38:48
Yeah, my age. Underrated conversation I got to
38:51
have was with Kevin's dad. Yeah, while you guys were doing
38:54
a car check. Look out for that one.
38:57
Me and Kevin's dad we're talking about like probiotics and making
39:00
your stomach like better AG one. It was crazy.
39:03
I was like what the fuck? He he should have had his own
39:05
podcast. Dude, it would have been here's
39:08
the here's one of the the game strats that he gave me.
39:11
It was like, since humans have been taking antibiotics, like
39:15
the increase of antibiotics to fight diseases in your body.
39:19
This is straight from Kevin's dad, so it's a reliable fucking
39:21
source who looked healthy as a horse, by the way, and is
39:26
nearing 70. I was like, shut up.
39:28
You're not. He was like, I am.
39:31
I'm like, yeah, So the the medicine, like antibiotics,
39:36
yeah, they kill bacteria, but they also strip your body of the
39:42
good bacteria that your kidney or whatever, your liver,
39:45
whatever organ, it was gone. You know, I mean, it kills it,
39:49
but at what cost? You know what I mean?
39:51
So obviously if you look at pictures of people from like the
39:54
80s and 90s, it just kind of gets progressively worse because
39:57
we're all turning fat and shit like.
39:59
They also started fucking the food up too.
40:00
Around they were fucking the food up, but yeah, like but but
40:02
at the same time like. So he's saying it's most mostly
40:05
because. Of your body isn't doesn't it's
40:08
lacking the probiotics. That or your body is lacking
40:11
whatever the fuck. Yeah, because you're putting a.
40:13
Blend aid on everything to cleanse out that bad shit.
40:17
Yeah, and stuff in your body. That's why I don't take anything
40:20
bro. I try my hardest not to take
40:21
anything so that it's going to have a negative effect in some
40:24
way. That in turn makes your body
40:27
more susceptible, obviously in the future for like, more
40:31
infections. Like now allergies start to
40:33
develop because year after year the body's just evolved to have
40:38
like, less and less of this probiotic or whatever.
40:41
And now allergies develop, diseases start to develop
40:47
because now the body can't fight them and it's not as strong.
40:50
Yeah, people smoked cigarettes and shit back in the day, didn't
40:53
ever get sick. I.
40:54
Don't know if that's really related.
40:55
Bull. Well, they they started adding
40:57
like bad shit to those two. Well.
40:59
Yeah, that's a poor example. This is what I just mean, like
41:02
the bodies were stronger back then and you know they.
41:04
Were well, they were healthier. Look at the photos.
41:06
Go to Rich Naps Instagram and look at the photos of Raceway
41:09
Park in like the 80s and the 70s.
41:11
Just just go look at them you. Definitely don't see obese
41:13
people, I would tell you. That everyone looked fucking
41:15
fine as fuck and so. Strange.
41:18
So we were talking about that and then Kevin's podcast too,
41:22
like it was just a lot of 180 stuff.
41:25
And I thought that's where I found out that you guys are cut
41:26
from the same cloth. Also cool about his podcast is
41:30
he actually gave us a he gave us his car history pretty much.
41:33
You know how Colin did it. Yeah.
41:35
A little bit more relaxed than that, but.
41:37
Kevin struggled to get that fucking car.
41:42
I would have given up. I would have given up easy peasy
41:46
after the first rot box and then and then somehow finagling it to
41:51
get into the better car. Yeah, that.
41:53
Now I'm thinking about it, that car story was one of my favorite
41:55
car. Stories and then and then one
41:57
after he finagled it to get into the better car he had like a
42:00
built Sr. but was. He had like 3 engines.
42:02
Jimmy and Damon bullied him, not bullied him, no.
42:07
Yeah, they bullied. Him, they convinced him to not
42:09
put a built Sr. in there, which was probably going to be sick.
42:13
Yeah, it could have been. Think about it.
42:14
It could have been because he ended up getting a built Sr.
42:16
later on. Yeah.
42:19
This whole time, by the way, Eddie is freezing.
42:22
Eddie, yo, that was the coldest podcast, right?
42:24
That was the coldest one, yeah. We were freezing our asses.
42:28
Off and Jimmy's, but no, that one was the worst.
42:30
But since Eddie isn't talking and Eddie was sitting to my
42:33
right, which was closer to the door like you had to be.
42:37
And he's not really, Yeah, he's not talking.
42:39
When you're talking, when you're having conversations and stuff,
42:41
you are warming your body. Texas was not as hot as I
42:43
thought it was going to be. No.
42:45
But we heard we came at the wrong fucking time.
42:47
Wrong time. It was like one week of being
42:48
cold. Terrible.
42:50
But yeah, that podcast was great.
42:53
We just, we didn't want to close the garage door because we had
42:55
such a good view of his car. And to be honest, it was.
42:57
It was nice outside, but it was but it was cold.
42:59
Dude, the red 180 sitting at the end of the driveway and it being
43:04
sunny out, yeah, made me feel warmer.
43:07
So I was like, oh, OK, yeah. So we were just like, fuck it.
43:10
Yeah, we're just hanging out. And then once we got towards the
43:12
end, we were like, all right, dude, it's fucking freezing out
43:14
here. We got to go.
43:15
We got to talk to Jimmy. So yeah, after that we dipped
43:17
off and went to Jimmy's. Yes.
43:19
Right away. Now you knew Jimmy or no, you
43:24
met him. I.
43:24
Met him in passing. OK, like Nick, like Front St.
43:28
Nick visited Texas for like New Year's.
43:32
Yeah, he showed up there apparently with like a box of
43:35
fruit snacks, as Jimmy said for the kids, which is so fucking.
43:39
Sweet and he just did that off. Yeah.
43:41
On a whim, so. Fucking sweet of Nick.
43:43
And while I was on the Discord the other day, Nick tapped in
43:45
and I told him that and he was like, well yeah, they said that
43:48
they were kids. I was like, yeah, I mean.
43:53
And and they love fruit snacks, apparently.
43:55
They love the fruit snacks so W. But so you kind of met him.
43:58
Sort of. And also then I only had the
44:01
image of like who Jimmy is when you see him out and about, which
44:05
is somebody who's just running shit.
44:08
That was the I mean. What did he kept saying He was
44:09
like, I'm the fucking go, dude. He.
44:13
Standing on business. Stand I stand on business.
44:15
Jimmy's a character, dude. Yeah.
44:17
Nicest guy ever? Yeah.
44:19
Nicest guy ever. Most like a great father, Jimmy.
44:22
Two of those people you meet, you're like, yeah, he's got a
44:23
big ego, but he is a genuine nice person.
44:29
He's always right and he is he is always right, but he knows
44:33
happens to be correct that the the decisions that he makes
44:37
happens to be. Calculated just like other
44:38
people we saw. You know that trip?
44:40
He always like with his kids and stuff.
44:42
He's awesome with his kids and like just, it's, it's like you,
44:44
he's doing all of it at the same time and you just can't help but
44:48
applaud that. And like we talked about in the,
44:50
I mean, none of this is a secret.
44:52
We talk about all this shit in the podcast, but like, we talk
44:54
about like, hating on other cars this and that, like shit like
44:57
that. And then what I'm trying to say
44:59
is like, yeah, he's a hater sometimes on some shit, which we
45:01
all probably agree what he's hating on, but he'll be a hater
45:05
sometimes. But at the end of the day, he
45:07
actually does mean well. And Oh yeah, he runs knuckle up
45:11
like, Oh yeah. Dude.
45:13
Dude, he's, he's the reason why, I mean, I'll say it, he's the
45:16
reason why that area is like that right now with all those
45:18
cars like. Yeah, he brought, he brought
45:21
that around like maybe Pop, you made it a little bit more of a
45:24
statement. Yeah.
45:26
When when he drives. And you can hear about all that
45:28
in that podcast. That podcast is one of the best
45:30
ones for as far as like informative about the Colonel
45:33
wing. He may find your wing.
45:34
I don't know if he did it on the.
45:35
Podcast, But he did on the podcast he did.
45:37
I think so. Damn, he couldn't even have the
45:39
I don't. Know, but I'm going to say he
45:40
was like he was like, you'll never Dr. Knuckle up with that
45:43
wing. Yeah, yeah, when he said that
45:45
shit. I don't want to fucking drive.
45:46
Knuckle up. Fuck you.
45:48
I got fucking E town at home, Yeah.
45:50
But he said that shit. I was like, OK, now you're going
45:52
a little far. Yeah, I was like, no, fuck you,
45:54
I have hair. I like that.
45:56
I like that wing, though, so I said it.
45:58
I was like, I like Carl's wing. I don't know.
46:00
I was talking about the other day or I think this was
46:02
literally today. I was like, I can't wait to take
46:05
it off that fucking car. Oh no.
46:07
And then put it on like the next car.
46:10
Oh, like if you got a. Like a like a on a S chassis,
46:12
that wing would be perfect. It's like a little.
46:14
Small. I think you got to keep it now
46:16
until you go to knuckle up. I would put it back on for that,
46:21
but I do have to get a new trunk.
46:22
I have to take it off and then just looks plain as fuck.
46:25
Yeah, he was a what is that, a 110 JZX 110 he was fucking with.
46:30
Yeah, yes, the. JZX 110 he had and we he was
46:32
putting some Z wheels on it. Shit should look pretty good.
46:36
It looked good, I heard a lot of grumblings about it in my even
46:39
in my group chat so it was like why is he putting funking OEM
46:42
wheels on it? I mean, I'm sure he's just doing
46:44
it because he had them or something.
46:45
Did he buy? It he bought them for a deal
46:46
every summer and they're forge raised wheels.
46:48
Fuck you. It's a daily and it's supposed
46:50
to just RIP around on the highway.
46:51
Apparently it's not a drift car it.
46:52
Just it fit pretty good look fire right off the RIP, but I.
46:56
Put the goat. I put I commented the goat right
46:58
away. So that podcast was great.
47:01
That that podcast was awesome. Long time coming.
47:03
This is the first time we've had a live audience.
47:08
That that was funny. That's really funny.
47:10
Well, it's just Harris. Yeah, a live audience that was
47:13
actually watching. Harris, another guy that we met,
47:16
yeah, while we were at Jimmy's, who drives like the most
47:20
ballistic, like 99. I was going to say just to let
47:22
everyone know because everyone was asking who it was.
47:25
Yeah, it's Harris's car, also a nonchalanter because I was like,
47:31
this is your car. Yeah, that thing is like, oh,
47:34
well, it's OK. I was like, that's what
47:36
everybody with a nice car says. It's got like ATBO front bumper.
47:41
And 993. Yeah, 993.
47:45
And you see the little essence sticker on the back.
47:47
Born like it's old. And I was like.
47:50
What the? What the?
47:52
Fuck, like I called Diego right away because I was like, he's
47:55
one of my only other friends. Actually all my friends fuck
47:58
with 9 elevens, but I know Diego's like is blindly.
48:01
I love 9 elevens. Yeah, I was like, dude, you got
48:03
to see this. Flips it over.
48:05
Dude, what the fuck? Like go to the back essence
48:08
sticker. It's the only one there.
48:10
But he was, he was the first one who was like, do you mind if I
48:13
just like watch? It was so funny the way he
48:16
asked. And now Harris is like a gentle
48:19
giant, too. Because all of us northerners
48:22
are like short, then everybody down there is tall as fuck,
48:25
yeah. Well, it's funny because they
48:27
all said that Damon and they were like, alright, we're just
48:30
gonna watch. I was like, no, you're not.
48:31
It's freezing out. And then they and then they
48:33
said. Harris Harris was outside whole
48:36
time. In a chair.
48:37
In a chair, not saying a word. Eating a cinnamon roll.
48:41
Eating a cinnamon roll The camera too.
48:43
That that. Oh yeah, Kevin's lady made
48:45
cinnamon rolls that were apparently the greatest thing
48:47
ever. Those were so good.
48:49
Shit was cracked. Dude shit was cracked.
48:52
What was? Cracked.
48:53
What made it crack? I I don't know, it was just like
48:57
perfect in every way. Like I, I even had a microwave
49:00
in mind because it was later, yeah, but still amazing.
49:04
I. Wanted to have one really bad
49:05
but the problem is is like I just had beer in my mouth and I
49:10
was like I was not. That is not the time for me to
49:12
have a cinnamon roll. Yeah, I could have.
49:14
Ate the rest of those but I was like I don't want to root.
49:17
You're trying to convince. I think I got 2 right.
49:20
But so yeah, Harris was at the bottom of the and then at this
49:22
point now Kevin is also hanging out because.
49:26
Yeah, Kevin, just Kevin was there hanging out all day.
49:28
I. Didn't know that this was a
49:29
thing. See, this is what I'm talking.
49:30
About though, because he drove back for.
49:31
This is what I'm talking about, though.
49:32
So like they made a whole thing of it.
49:35
It just made you feel really good and like we just met these
49:39
people. So like, Jimmy opened his doors
49:43
to us. Now we're hanging now.
49:44
Now their group gets to hang out because we're there.
49:48
They're they're hanging out. You know what I mean.
49:50
Well, Damon flew down anyway. They were going to hang out.
49:52
Camry on bronze. Yeah, some freak scheduling
49:56
coincidence. This is Dad's weekend.
49:59
Yep. And Dad's weekend.
50:01
It means Damon flies down, hangs out with Jimmy, and they don't
50:05
go anywhere. They don't do.
50:06
Anything. They just hang out right there
50:07
it was. Perfect.
50:08
Yeah, I said. I said to Brad.
50:10
I was like, when was because Because lo and behold, now we're
50:13
all hanging out. Brad texts me and goes like,
50:16
we're literally about to start recording.
50:17
Brad texts me and goes, what are you guys doing?
50:20
I'm like, hey, Jimmy, do you know he's like Brad?
50:22
Yeah, he could come by like, So then Brad comes.
50:25
So now Brad's watching a pod with Harris.
50:28
And I was like, this is crazy, 'cause then afterwards we just
50:32
hung out and watched supercross and drank some more beer in
50:35
Jimmy's living room and just shot the shit for a little bit.
50:39
How weird was that for you? Terrible.
50:42
When was the last time you had to do?
50:44
You got to do that. I yeah, I mean, I'm just, I
50:48
don't know. It was fun, Yeah.
50:50
You looked really uncomfortable. I was just thinking about how I
50:52
should be doing a podcast right now because we spent the money
50:54
to get down here. Dude.
50:57
But it was nice that it was funny because Jimmy was like.
50:59
Literally like we finished that podcast.
51:01
It was literally like 8:00. You're saying you wanted to have
51:04
another pod? Hour, hour worth of travel time,
51:06
meet and greet at least set up for another 35 minutes at least.
51:11
It would have been 993010 o'clock.
51:13
Start a pod home by one. Fuck.
51:16
Out of here, I was gonna say me. Yeah, probably.
51:18
Yeah, dude, you know. This and this runs for only so
51:24
long. You got to charge it.
51:26
It has to charge like we did that pod and that sitting
51:31
afterwards, you know, you remember when when Jimmy said
51:33
this, Eddie, he said, Frankie, you can relax.
51:36
You can you can sit. Now, yeah, Frankie was like
51:38
standing around. He's like trying to, he's like
51:40
trying to hang out. I'm like, what can we do?
51:42
He's like. Frankie, you can you can like
51:43
relax now We're it's not we can hang out he's.
51:45
Like sit on the couch. Well, the funny part is me and
51:48
Jimmy don't know each other too well, but we know each other
51:50
enough. But he knows Josh very well.
51:53
They talk all the time. So I feel like he, I feel like
51:57
Jimmy knows me because of Josh. And like he would just be like,
52:01
all right, Frankie, you're going to, we're going to hang out now.
52:03
Is that all right? Yeah, that's what it.
52:06
Was you're not going to work. That's what it.
52:08
Was and I was like fuck. He comes in, he's like, all
52:11
right. Is this all right, Frankie?
52:13
We're good. Chill.
52:14
Yeah. It's all good and I'm like,
52:15
shit. Cool I was.
52:17
Like, I don't think I got a choice, man.
52:18
He kept saying I can't believe Frankie hanging out with.
52:21
Me. Yeah, that was the funniest
52:22
part. But he's sitting on my couch.
52:24
He kept just like throwing those in randomly.
52:27
I know. It was so funny.
52:29
Deeply factionist. Damon's on the floor like
52:31
cracking jokes at Frankie too. Honestly, he's super fucking
52:34
great. Yeah, it was good.
52:35
It was a good time. Brad's just chilling next to me.
52:37
So like, this is normal to me. This is normal.
52:40
I was like, this is fucking sweet.
52:43
Ate at the rice box. Oh yeah, then we had some good
52:46
ass Chinese food. Yeah, it wasn't great, but.
52:49
Actually, fuck. You.
52:50
You. Loved it, mine was good.
52:51
Yeah, mine was OK. The rice, OK, it's got egg in
52:55
it. If the fried rice has egg in it,
52:56
I'm already going to be a fan. So the fried rice, bare minimum.
52:59
Trust me, you sometimes you get rice and you eat egg in it and
53:01
I'm like, what are we doing? Some fucking.
53:05
You guys were a little like, damn, my stomach went crazy.
53:09
I'm kind of hungry. You guys were not satisfied by
53:14
it, I feel like. Were you Eddie?
53:16
No. Straight up.
53:18
That egg roll though, it was rolled like a fucking blunt.
53:22
Oh yeah, I remember that. Tight SO.
53:25
Impressive first thing. And he says, damn he.
53:28
Pulls out the fucking egg roll. He's like.
53:30
You pull it out. I touched it in the bag.
53:31
I'm like, that shit's tight. Yeah, but the egg roll sucks.
53:36
And then we watched Bad Bunny, the presentation by CB bro.
53:39
Frankie refused to change the fucking channel.
53:41
Malcolm. Malcolm would have killed.
53:42
Something we learned a decent amount of Bad Bunny.
53:46
And then I went to the bathroom or something like come out, the
53:47
TV's off and I'm like, what happened?
53:50
That guy kiss the wall bro. Bad Bunny.
53:52
Kiss the wall? What does that mean?
53:54
That is like that is like you know what kissed a wall man I.
53:59
Actually don't know what that means dude, it's some gay shit.
54:02
That guy, no, that guy, that guy is in it.
54:04
That guy is in it. In on it dude, I swear to God.
54:07
Yeah, OK, now I get what you say.
54:08
That's fucking crazy, Carl. OK, now I now I get what you
54:11
said. That was OK moving forward.
54:13
That is a plant, dude. He's he's, he's, yeah.
54:16
I feel like it, dude. Why is he performing at the
54:18
Super Bowl? Why don't we have Bon Jovi or
54:20
some shit up in there? Because.
54:22
Bon Jovi what? Malcolm, you want to chime in on
54:24
this? I don't know.
54:25
You sound real racist. No.
54:27
There was a there was a conspiracy.
54:29
There was a conspiracy I. Watched about this.
54:31
At night. That night.
54:33
First, first and foremost, full. Like 30 minute conspiracy.
54:35
First and foremost, fuck having Bon Jovi at the Super Bowl.
54:38
He's had his time. We should have had Creed then.
54:40
No, yeah, their time was from 2000 to 2001.
54:45
One Bad Bunny song after that fucking hour long documentary we
54:48
watched. I can't name 1 you.
54:52
Know what I mean? It's not no, I'm joking.
54:54
Maybe like somebody else. I don't like his.
54:55
Music. Bad Bunny as a person, I don't
54:57
like his music. Yeah.
54:58
Damn, I never thought I'd hear. Malcolm say.
55:00
He seems like a decent guy. He's funny, that's why I like
55:02
him, but I just can't listen to his music.
55:04
And like if. I knew Spanish, I'd probably
55:06
fuck with that. I don't understand the language.
55:08
It is for me. You don't fuck with a vibe I
55:10
fuck. With a for music, a big thing
55:12
for me is vocals. So if I don't understand what
55:14
you're saying. That's that's the reason I don't
55:17
like. Yeah, that's true.
55:18
And that's not on, that's on. And like, I don't think that's
55:20
the. Super Bowl crowd, you know what
55:21
I mean? I don't know what the Super Bowl
55:23
crowd. Actually is.
55:23
I don't fucking know shit about football.
55:25
It could be some of. Them, but there was like a it
55:27
was late at night. I watched like, 'cause I was
55:29
watching what? What was I watching?
55:30
I was watching like the Jeffrey Epstein fucking like final
55:33
interview with. Like, Oh yeah, we put on, we put
55:35
on. You were.
55:36
I did. I sent it to you and then you
55:37
were watching it at the same time, and I was trying to watch
55:39
it at the same time, Yeah. And then I was like this.
55:41
Is the Epstein files dropped that night?
55:43
This is kind of boring. And then I watched.
55:45
That new release. Then I watched that conspiracy
55:46
thing about like, Bad Bunny in the Super Bowl.
55:49
You watched it that night. No, I watched a different video
55:51
on it that night. So you.
55:54
And then that's what made me say that and then think that way.
55:57
And then also what? Would that do for?
55:59
Maybe I shouldn't ask you that. Maybe we won't get into that.
56:01
Yeah, I don't know. It was like it was, it was
56:03
really weird. And I had a lot of Curry chicken
56:06
fried rice too, while I was watching it.
56:08
Yeah. So like maybe it was like a mix
56:09
of that where I was like this kind of making sense.
56:13
Yeah, I mean, like, I don't. I don't fucking know.
56:15
You're talking to someone who doesn't even watch football.
56:16
I don't think you do either. I don't.
56:18
So do we really even have? A I've watched football in the
56:20
past, like I can play it. I know the rules.
56:23
That one Super Bowl was lit. Where Janet Jackson our titty
56:26
out. Janet Jackson, What was that?
56:29
You're a fucking freak. Malfunction I.
56:32
Think it was part of the show. It was 100% that was part of the
56:35
show like that. Oh wardrobe man fuck but.
56:38
Stop. Nonetheless, we like, wake up
56:40
and like, because now we're at it.
56:42
This is about to be Sunday. Sunday.
56:45
The trip is coming to an end. Michael Jackson, Super Bowl.
56:48
Think about that one. That's a good one.
56:51
That one was one of the greatest Super Bowl performances of all
56:53
time. Probably was the greatest.
56:55
One it was also a pretty good Super Bowl was Bruno Mars.
56:59
Who the fuck was I? I think.
57:00
I'm going to say Creed again. Creed where he flew through the
57:03
air. Yeah, that was a blast if you
57:05
think about it, if you think about it back then.
57:08
What year was that? Probably 2001.
57:11
That was the only year they were relevant.
57:12
Yeah. And then all of a sudden all the
57:14
Gen. Z were like, yo Creed's lit.
57:17
Well, you got to follow times, dude.
57:18
You got to, you got to you got you got businesses to run.
57:22
You got to go with what's trending.
57:23
That would. Be it's fucking sick.
57:27
The best is when Chris sings it. He's good at it.
57:31
Our Chris Yep, sings that. Song.
57:33
Yep, he loves Creed when it comes on.
57:35
Chris loves Janet Jackson and like what's a what's a Chris
57:41
song when I think of Chris. I don't know if I saw the Bruno
57:44
Mars one, was it recent? Gibeon. 20.
57:48
I think I remember it. 1718. Yeah, Malcolm's already looking
57:54
the shit up. I'm curious too.
57:56
Because. Because whatever it was, he.
57:58
2014. I think the Bruno Mars one was
58:02
sick because I didn't get on the drums or some shit.
58:04
And, and to me, that shows like like that person's pretty
58:08
talented. Didn't everyone blow up the
58:10
Kendrick Kendrick Lamar one last year?
58:12
Right. That's when everyone started
58:13
freaking. Out.
58:14
Oh, that one. That was a Super Bowl, right?
58:15
It was last. Year, yeah.
58:16
I don't really like Kendrick Lamar as an artist, period.
58:19
Like, and you can ask any of my friends, I don't really fuck
58:21
with Kendrick. I don't.
58:22
I don't hate the music. But like, there's something
58:24
about his flow that I just don't like.
58:26
I don't like. His boys, I get what you're
58:27
saying. I'm like, this is all right.
58:28
But like, it was a good performance, I thought, right,
58:31
yeah. Actually that's cap.
58:32
There's some older Kendrick songs that I fuck with.
58:34
Like older. But like, that was good and
58:36
everyone was getting mad at that and why they have this guy.
58:38
It's just the old white people, like it's just crazy and that
58:42
and now Bad Bunny, they don't even know what he's saying.
58:45
So now they're going to be real fucking mad.
58:46
So now what I said earlier is totally fucking.
58:49
No, it makes sense why they're mad, yeah.
58:51
Well, yeah. He's a racist stuff.
58:52
Fuck you. No, I mean it makes it.
58:54
Came off racist as fuck but you're listening to our podcast.
59:00
Shut up. Fuck you.
59:05
All right, so then what? What did we do after that?
59:07
Oh, oh, can we? Can we?
59:10
Side note about the breakfast, dude, if we didn't have to do
59:13
anything that day, I would have ate a lot at that breakfast
59:15
buffet. OK, No, they had they had
59:17
country gravy and biscuits. That sure AV was good.
59:20
Like fuck yeah. Like they were making it.
59:23
Huh. I I almost got grabbed them and
59:25
then I didn't and now you're making you.
59:27
Ate a pound of eggs. I did this fucking dude.
59:30
It was a mistake. Eddie said it too.

1:00:25
working with Rect Magazine. Rect has been capturing the best
1:00:28
moments in drifting since the mid 2000s.
1:00:31
After a long hiatus, they have recently been brought back from
1:00:34
the dead with the best people in the industry leading the charge.
1:00:37
The first couple issues have been nothing but amazing and
1:00:40
after speaking with these guys I can tell you it's only going to
1:00:42
get better. Now I won't lie, a print
1:00:44
magazine being brought back to life in 2026 is pretty risky
1:00:48
move. It's a dying industry with video
1:00:50
content and social media flooding the market.
1:00:52
But nothing beats the nostalgic feeling of print.
1:00:55
It's always been the best way to get a glimpse into the
1:00:57
automotive scene that you're interested in.
1:00:58
Automotive magazines were the reason some of us even got into
1:01:01
cars. To this day I still have all my
1:01:03
magazines from high school and it's so cool to be able to go
1:01:06
back to see how the culture was during that specific time.
1:01:09
And to have AUS based magazine that's just focused on drifting
1:01:12
is unreal. They have tons of information in
1:01:14
the first two issues that I've been reading through.
1:01:17
Everything from event coverage, specific vehicle articles,
1:01:19
driver profiles, shop tours, much more.
1:01:23
Even the ads are cool. For more info or if you are
1:01:25
looking to subscribe, head on over to wreckedmagazine.com.
1:01:29
They got a bunch of other cool stuff on there as well.
1:01:31
We are in the middle of trying to get some of these to sell
1:01:33
here at the shop so hopefully in the next few months we have them
1:01:36
here to at least check out or if you want to purchase them.
1:01:41
I don't really think when I grabbed my portions.
1:01:43
Eddie, dude. Eddie looked at Frankie, right
1:01:45
and goes, wait, what did? It was like Frankie was nearing
1:01:50
finishing the eggs and Eddie was like, yeah, I chose not to.
1:01:54
Something about that I forgot what it was.
1:01:56
But it was funny as fuck. What did I say about?
1:01:58
Oh, I said something about the eggs.
1:01:59
I don't know. And then you were like, yeah,
1:02:00
that's why I didn't get them or something.
1:02:01
I was like, all right, now you tell me.
1:02:04
The first day I knew we had a lot to do.
1:02:06
The second day when we were about to leave so Sunday I was
1:02:09
like fuck it. We were in a rush on Sunday.
1:02:11
I had I had biscuits and gravy. I had a little.
1:02:14
But I wasn't down there yet, so a.
1:02:15
Little bit of sausage or coffee like I was living and then after
1:02:21
that we did the Colin pod where we just went to the House of
1:02:23
GTRS. We we got in the car and we were
1:02:25
like, me and Eddie are like, yo, we got no time today, so let's
1:02:29
try to do this. We'll see what happens.
1:02:30
That was that was a big deal. Yeah, but it worked out really
1:02:33
well. Yeah, it worked out really
1:02:36
fucking well. Like it did well.
1:02:38
Scary well. It worked out.
1:02:40
We went on the plane, we were on the plane, we were comfortable.
1:02:43
Well, for me, it worked out well.
1:02:45
It was, it was my time. It was my normal timeline.
1:02:47
I didn't. Run one time.
1:02:49
Yeah, exactly. We didn't have to jog.
1:02:51
There are people who are running through the airport.
1:02:53
We didn't have to do that one. It was a brisk walk.
1:02:55
Look, if you get, if you get past security and you have
1:02:57
fucking 40 minutes or whatever, 30 minute, you're good.
1:03:01
I've literally gone through security where my flight is
1:03:04
boarding. Yeah, me too.
1:03:05
And I'm just still. I've gone to the gate and I go,
1:03:08
oh, that's the plane. And then, you know, hold on.
1:03:11
Frankie's calling me Yo. Yeah, yeah.
1:03:14
Doors open. We we got through security and
1:03:17
we were just got boarding in 5 minutes.
1:03:19
And everything but you got it. You remember that?
1:03:20
Yeah. But I know there's Group One,
1:03:22
Group 2. We're not Group One or two.
1:03:23
Yeah. But nonetheless, the timeline of
1:03:26
this day was we. What do you mean you're all
1:03:28
rich? You all had those nice seats up
1:03:29
front? What do you mean?
1:03:31
Yeah, yeah, you're probably bored in Group.
1:03:32
One, I was, we were group three. It was like everybody else.
1:03:35
Nonetheless, I like if I was, if I was Group One, I would wait
1:03:38
until I was. Everybody was on the plane
1:03:40
anyway. Yeah, if I wanted to make a
1:03:41
fucking entrance, I'm literally going to be the last one on this
1:03:43
fucking plane. Yeah, yeah.
1:03:44
So anyway the hey but. We're not talking about that
1:03:47
right now. We're talking about Colin.
1:03:49
Colin Oh yeah. So 9:00 AM we get to Colin's
1:03:53
shop or something like that. 9 something.
1:03:55
Yeah, probably 9. And.
1:03:56
Around there. Before we get started the the on
1:04:00
Sunday, the plane was leaving at 8:00. 4520.
1:04:06
Five. No, it was 2020525820.
1:04:09
I'll meet you at 30. I looked at the fucking plane
1:04:13
like my phone. We were literally backing up.
1:04:15
It was 816. So do with that information as
1:04:18
you will. 8/30 it was 816. I looked at my phone.
1:04:22
But it was 825, right? Yes, 25 but we were early the
1:04:26
the captain literally had we're getting out of here.
1:04:27
We're gone. 8:00 I'm saying we leave.
1:04:31
It was 9. Colin gives us the most in depth
1:04:34
tour of the shop. It was.
1:04:37
Well, we had to. We walked in.
1:04:38
We didn't know where we were going.
1:04:40
It was just called Shop. It was called the shop and we
1:04:43
don't know anything about drag racing, so we don't know like.
1:04:46
We open the door, there's like probably a collective 1,000,000
1:04:49
horsepower in there. There's probably like 20,000
1:04:52
horsepower in there. 100%, there's 20,000 horsepower in
1:04:55
there. 100% there's more than that.
1:04:59
I'd say you're you could get close to 40.
1:05:01
No, I think that there's 20,000. There's a lot of cars in there.
1:05:04
There's two of them, 3/4 of them that had 1000.
1:05:09
By the way, so you know, I could be wrong, but someone was just
1:05:12
here, a customer. He told me he knew the car, the
1:05:15
one on the left. I don't know if you know the
1:05:17
power. Yeah, it's 2000.
1:05:19
Someone said 3300 horsepower. I was like, what?
1:05:23
Yeah, well, the fastest one in in the video, you remember Colin
1:05:27
goes because the whole time we're like, are we allowed to
1:05:31
record? Drag racing is freaky.
1:05:33
Yeah, I was like, dude, can we record this?
1:05:34
Shit, I didn't want to be under the car.
1:05:37
Yeah. And then somebody's like, oh,
1:05:38
that. Traction Rod, we fucking yeah.
1:05:40
That's the way that's set up. I don't know how that should go.
1:05:42
And I feel like they would they would take notes on that.
1:05:45
That's what I would do, yeah. So like he was like, now
1:05:48
everybody knows this car. I guess everybody knows about
1:05:50
the car. 'Cause it's the fastest one,
1:05:52
fastest one fastest. Shoot the.
1:05:53
Engine room and all that shit. The the tech bathroom the the
1:05:57
fucking S1 that's in the back amore spec. 33, yeah.
1:06:03
Beautiful car. Yeah, there was GTR.
1:06:06
Everywhere Kips car was there. Yeah, Kips beautiful S14 Zenki.
1:06:10
Even the S chassis, there were two S chassis 3S chassis there
1:06:14
were all nice, were all nice. The one outside looked more R
1:06:16
speed. That was yeah, but who's called
1:06:18
that? That was his boy or.
1:06:19
His name was Justin Jack. Yeah, I.
1:06:22
Think checker Justin. I don't know.
1:06:24
You guys gotta watch that video. That's gonna be the best video.
1:06:27
That is going to be crazy because because it was just
1:06:30
Colin was a really good speaker, yo.
1:06:33
Colin is like the Malcolm of the show.
1:06:35
Yeah, yeah, he knows that bro. He's just good at everything,
1:06:37
bro. He's got a key to it, the.
1:06:39
Good things that he does or the things that he does, he's the
1:06:44
best in those things. Yeah, He doesn't do it unless
1:06:46
he's the best. At Mind you, he's 2424, but he's
1:06:48
34. We.
1:06:49
Started the story and he's like, yeah, I got tired of that
1:06:51
because I was doing it for a while and Frankie's like, what's
1:06:53
a while? Like a year.
1:06:54
Oh yeah, his lady like 2 years. What's a year?
1:06:57
What's a while to you? And he's like, that was like a
1:06:59
year or two. But he's broke.
1:07:01
If you think about it. He broke it down.
1:07:03
He was like, that's like 10% of my life, Yeah, at that time.
1:07:08
That's why I never. Thought about it like that.
1:07:10
That's why they say when you age, the years go by faster
1:07:13
because it's only a certain percentage of your life.
1:07:15
Yeah. And when you're younger, it's
1:07:16
like a huge percent of your life.
1:07:18
You. Know I I've never thought of
1:07:20
that that his stories were just rolling on by he was like you
1:07:25
know I got I got into this he. Wanted to do it in order.
1:07:27
This and this and this and this actually was calculated.
1:07:30
Dude, sometimes we have guests who know exactly what they want
1:07:34
to get across like. Right when they got out the
1:07:36
womb, boom, I knew what I wanted to do.
1:07:38
Yeah. Meanwhile, I still fucking know
1:07:40
what the hell I'm doing now. But but I mean like he wanted
1:07:43
to, he wanted to tell the story too.
1:07:44
Like I got a lot. Remember when?
1:07:45
When we said. The whole time he was like, he
1:07:47
had to have been like. Recognized you could see him,
1:07:49
like literally his wheels were turning.
1:07:51
Yeah. Calculating the whole time he's
1:07:52
like, I don't know how I'm going to explain this story.
1:07:54
Because he was like, I don't want to take up too much time,
1:07:56
but I have a lot to say. He's like 2 1/2 hours on the .2
1:07:59
hours on the dot podcast. Full story of his entire life.
1:08:02
Yeah, it was good how he met, how he went to Lone Star first,
1:08:04
then he went to knuckle up because he saw cars like Jimmy
1:08:06
and then did this and did that and then this.
1:08:08
Do you prefer that way, Eddie, or do you like the Randomness
1:08:11
podcast? What's your opinion on this?
1:08:15
I like the way columns went. Yeah, you seem like a calculated
1:08:19
person too. Randomness is like fun.
1:08:22
The audio from an audio standpoint, that place was
1:08:25
fucking. Yeah, it was a freaking big ass
1:08:27
shop. With no echo.
1:08:29
With no echo. At all.
1:08:30
Weirdest thing in the world? In here.
1:08:32
If you. Yeah, we only had that one.
1:08:34
Jimmy's pod was the only one where the audio wasn't perfect.
1:08:36
I was scared. Yeah, every other one scared.
1:08:38
I was like fuck. Every other podcast was actually
1:08:41
really good, and Collins was potentially the best fucking
1:08:46
audio we ever recorded ever, and it was the biggest fucking place
1:08:50
we ever recorded a podcast like the.
1:08:51
Top secret S14 point or S15, whatever you want to call that
1:08:54
Oh yeah behind and he's it's like Hajime's car or something
1:08:58
and he's like this is like the oldest fucking car, but it's.
1:09:00
Getting I remember seeing that car in magazines or.
1:09:01
Something It looks like a old car.
1:09:03
Yeah, it's the old grey green Tees.
1:09:05
Yeah, and the Pearl white paint job.
1:09:06
Yeah, you have the old green Tees.
1:09:08
He puts you into a generation. Oh yeah.
1:09:11
Yeah. So we recorded that, we finished
1:09:13
that up, then we have to drive an hour and now it's actually
1:09:17
hitting the group that. Well, when we left there, we.
1:09:21
Are running low like we're calculating how long.
1:09:23
How many minutes? Bullshit for that's how close
1:09:26
this is getting. And the worst part for me was I
1:09:28
realized I wasn't going to get BBQ that night.
1:09:30
Yes, yeah, that's what you thought.
1:09:32
And then so we're going to EMG now after we got out of the
1:09:36
shop. Shout out, shout out to Colin
1:09:38
again for that. Amazing.
1:09:38
We saw we saw everything. That fucking race hauler.
1:09:41
Dude, it's sick. We will never be able to travel.
1:09:46
Damn that don't think like that. Yeah, you, you're the opposite
1:09:49
of that. You never think like that.
1:09:50
We. I saw that.
1:09:52
I like too big, too big for your.
1:09:54
Dreams. I walked in there.
1:09:55
I walked in the RV Malc it looked like.
1:09:58
Yeah, dude. It looked like what?
1:10:00
You think Creed toured with A1? Yeah.
1:10:04
Like but trailer connected to the size of the of the tow rig.
1:10:11
Dude, yeah, like it would not. Just for cars like.
1:10:14
The rig separated would not fit in shop 1.
1:10:18
No. It would not.
1:10:20
That's how big this thing was. So we step in there and yeah,
1:10:23
that I was like, I'll never, I'll never have this.
1:10:28
This is fucking wild. It's insane.
1:10:31
Like, so we're going to start working on GTRS?
1:10:34
No. Yeah.
1:10:35
Just. Yeah.
1:10:37
And we're going to CNC stuff and we're going to do a lot of.
1:10:40
I like that aspect. Billet stuff.
1:10:42
Yeah, bro, Colin had a office. I am.
1:10:45
And it was nice. It was like this big.
1:10:46
I am 30 years old. I've never had my own office.
1:10:51
He's he's 34, remember? I had to build my own.
1:10:54
He's 34, remember you got 4. Years to go, I had to build my
1:10:57
own. Yours is cool.
1:11:00
It's cool. But anyway, so we go.
1:11:03
We go to EMG now, which stands for European Motor Group that
1:11:07
this is Fat Cat Mike's shop. So we got the next podcast we're
1:11:10
going to have is with Fat Cat Mike and Zach Triggs, also Fat
1:11:14
Cats. Yeah, and Mike has no Instagram.
1:11:16
Mike hasn't communicated with him yet.
1:11:18
I just know that like he's supposed to be there this and
1:11:20
that. We're supposed to meet up here.
1:11:22
I'm only talking to Zach, so. I only know Zach because I knew
1:11:26
the car. Yeah, I honestly was confusing a
1:11:30
lot of the people on Fat Cats. Yeah, I know.
1:11:32
I met some of them. Cars.
1:11:34
So I was like which one is that? Yeah, I think I met Zach before.
1:11:37
We we get to that shop, this is the first shop we're going to do
1:11:39
is indoors. Indoors.
1:11:41
Actually. Collins was also pretty warm.
1:11:43
Yeah, yeah, yeah. In terms of like warmth, this is
1:11:46
in succession. It is, it was, it is, it was
1:11:49
like we're indoors and. And the setup gets nicer and
1:11:53
nicer every time. Yeah, this one.
1:11:55
We're on couches and sofas. Mike put his car right behind
1:11:59
his head so we knew which car was his.
1:12:01
I said it was orange. It's actually red because.
1:12:02
This shop is all German stuff. All German stuff.
1:12:05
I was so confused. I was like.
1:12:08
Yeah, we came from GTR heaven and now we're like BMW.
1:12:10
What's? Happening here, like, what's
1:12:11
going on? And he's like, job security.
1:12:14
Yeah, I was like, you're not wrong.
1:12:16
And even I even did ask him at one point about So you, you like
1:12:20
Japanese cars, but you work on German cars.
1:12:22
And he pretty much was like, yeah, I mean, they.
1:12:24
They pay, Yeah, they pay. And he and that guy, that guy
1:12:27
looks like he's had a great run at that business.
1:12:30
The the the lot is. Packed.
1:12:34
Packed. Yeah, like all I could think
1:12:36
about is if Faction had a lot that packed.
1:12:38
I remember. When we walked outside I was
1:12:40
like, yo, I think you need a bigger shot man.
1:12:42
You you would. Probably not be concerned.
1:12:46
Oh yeah. That guy's got 7 techs.
1:12:49
Well, you get different problems then at that point, but yeah,
1:12:51
he's got 7 techs. That's a lot.
1:12:54
Yeah, that's a lot. He's got, they all got engine
1:12:58
rooms, Frankie. They're building their shop car
1:13:01
races. Right, Carl, make me feel a
1:13:03
little bit worse about myself. Our shop car over there.
1:13:07
No, that's not the shop. Car that is literally no no.
1:13:10
No, no, it should be. We got AZ.
1:13:13
It should have been that. That's like the one that
1:13:16
everybody knows the shop for, and if that one's already beat
1:13:19
up, you could have fucking been. No VQ dude.
1:13:22
VQ life. Everyone likes HR motors.
1:13:26
That's a big thing. OK.
1:13:28
Not to me, but. We'll see.
1:13:31
But anyway, so we do, we, we, we, we leave that shop but and
1:13:35
we, we, we toured the other shop too.
1:13:38
And we got to bullshit too. We got to talk with everybody
1:13:40
because now we're we're running down to the wire.
1:13:42
Yeah, we should have left about 30 minutes before that, but we
1:13:44
wanted. To but everyone was like so nice
1:13:47
we met. Fuck, I couldn't remember their
1:13:51
names. It's like a bunch of there's a
1:13:53
couple other people there, a couple Asian dudes there.
1:13:55
They. Kept walking in as it went and
1:13:56
they were like oh sorry and then we just walked into the office
1:13:59
it. Was like Mike, Peter, PETA,
1:14:02
Pete, PETA. PETA like the bread.
1:14:04
Yeah, and then the other one who said that he had BBQ right
1:14:07
before getting there. I was so mad.
1:14:08
And he would have picked it up for Frankie, that was Nando.
1:14:11
No, that's his name. That's not Nando.
1:14:13
Nando was the one, no. There's another guy.
1:14:16
Was it like there's two mikes? Yeah, then it was Mike.
1:14:18
Dude, he was like, oh, you should have told me.
1:14:19
I was like. I was dying.
1:14:23
I went. To the spot that we were
1:14:25
supposed to go to. I was like.
1:14:25
Fuck. Me.
1:14:26
He was like, yeah, dude, I would have brought some over here.
1:14:28
I was just at BBQ right before this.
1:14:29
I was like, whoa, don't tell Frankie that.
1:14:31
Yeah, So we got to talk with them.
1:14:34
Good podcast, though. Mike's lady Erica as well.
1:14:36
She was there. She's cool.
1:14:39
I like the podcast. I thought we covered a lot of
1:14:41
early Texas drifting lore. Yeah, they've been doing this
1:14:45
for a while. We talked about like when they
1:14:47
first started getting fat cats together, what the scene was
1:14:49
like. 2012 ish around that time. Why Zach Triggs tore his car
1:14:54
apart to build the exact same car.
1:14:56
Yeah, yeah. That was like cover that
1:14:58
meeting. Triggs and like don't really
1:15:01
meet a lot of Runeskeep players nowadays, but yeah, we talked
1:15:05
about that. We even talked about that dude.
1:15:07
We talked about girls we talked about.
1:15:09
Yeah, we. Talked about there was a lot of
1:15:10
stuff in that all. Three of us were single as fuck
1:15:12
there in over 30. So yeah, I was like.
1:15:15
That was We're fucked, guys. That was funny.
1:15:17
I like that. That was a good podcast.
1:15:18
A good podcast. That was one of those ones where
1:15:19
you're doing it and you're like, this could have gone on for two
1:15:22
more hours. It could have.
1:15:23
You know why? Because that's another one of
1:15:25
those podcasts, just like every single fucking one, where you
1:15:28
watch all friendship. Literally.
1:15:30
Developed. Yes.
1:15:31
Like Mike and Zach started to get a little more comfortable
1:15:34
and like, we're just hanging out now and we're shooting the shit,
1:15:37
just laughing about whatever the fuck.
1:15:38
We're talking about that's exactly what that.
1:15:40
Was dude that was a live audience too, because Peter,
1:15:42
Mike and Nando were sitting and Erica were sitting right next to
1:15:46
the office. This guy wasn't in the audience
1:15:48
too Eddie. You could be hearing Eddie
1:15:49
laughing in the background. Yeah, And like, dude, there
1:15:51
would be laughing tracks. I'd be like, hell yeah.
1:15:54
Yeah, well, you said, didn't you say one part sounded like?
1:15:57
Like a laugh track. That was you guys said that,
1:15:59
said that. Oh yeah, it was about the
1:16:01
cheating. Oh yeah, I was talking about.
1:16:03
Oh, he said some crazy shit about Oh my God, he.
1:16:06
Was he was like, he was like, what the fuck did he say he was?
1:16:10
It was it was kind of out of pocket.
1:16:12
It was out of pocket. It was like, if you're unhappy,
1:16:14
then there, everybody's going to cheat.
1:16:15
And then and then we were just all like.
1:16:18
Whoa. You.
1:16:18
Heard the whole crowd go whoa. Yeah.
1:16:24
And then my favorite part was the actual applause at the end
1:16:28
of the episode. I was like, this is weird.
1:16:31
They're all clapping and walking.
1:16:32
Guys, thank you so much. Yeah, I was.
1:16:34
Like fucking whoa, dude. And like you'd bring something
1:16:38
up, bro. Nando would pull up with the
1:16:40
phone like right out, right out of the office, right out of
1:16:43
frame would just be like. Then Frankie would have a visual
1:16:46
of what it is that we're talking about is like having Malcolm.
1:16:48
He was like really trying to take your job.
1:16:52
He was very helpful. He was and then we were only
1:16:54
selling for 5 minutes. He was like the most. 5 minutes
1:16:56
you met Nando by the way and then he was like next time
1:16:58
you're here house, car, clothes, underwear, socks.
1:17:01
What I. Forgot to tell you Malcolm, This
1:17:03
is why I said we're going back because Nando was like y'all can
1:17:06
move in like he's like, he's like we got 2 bedrooms we got,
1:17:10
he's like I got a car you could use.
1:17:11
I feel like he would take care of me, he would raise me right.
1:17:14
I was like, well, I mean, hey, if we're not paying for hotel
1:17:17
rooms and shit then. He would raise me right for
1:17:19
real. Yeah, yeah.
1:17:21
I don't even know what his affiliation with the gangs are,
1:17:23
dude. I don't know which team he's a
1:17:24
part of or anything. Like, I hope it's not like that.
1:17:27
But I don't know what team it is.
1:17:28
Like what? What is he on Oblivion?
1:17:30
Is he on a fucking fat cat? He gave me a.
1:17:32
Sticker. He gave me an illicit sticker.
1:17:35
Fuck, that's what it was. I don't know anyone else on that
1:17:38
team. I have that.
1:17:39
I have that sticker on my coil on my sticker.
1:17:42
Before, yeah, I have. That's crazy.
1:17:44
So I know that team's been around.
1:17:45
That means that I met him at final bout, too, and he's the
1:17:47
one who gave me that sticker at the end of final bout.
1:17:49
Fuck, I finally know where I met Nando.
1:17:52
Holy shit. It was at final bout when we had
1:17:55
the corner lot. So what was that?
1:17:57
The most recent one that we went to seven where we met Bryson?
1:17:59
Yeah. Yeah.
1:18:00
And then right at the end, Nando just handed us stickers.
1:18:03
Oh, I do remember that right. Yeah, and we're like.
1:18:07
Yeah, Malcolm, you met him too? Yeah.
1:18:09
That rings a bill, yeah. Holy shit.
1:18:12
Yeah, he's a very nice. AG1 got my brain.
1:18:16
If you need AG1, shop that faction at ag1.com or whatever.
1:18:20
Probiotics Prebiotics got 2. And D3 free bottle with it and
1:18:23
the bag. But yeah, that's where we met
1:18:27
Nando, mind you. Okay, so now we're leaving.
1:18:30
I was actually pretty annoyed to leave there because I was like.
1:18:32
Carl was like, that's where Carl went.
1:18:34
Oh man. Yeah, because it was like.
1:18:35
Carl found his tribe and he's like, you're taking me away.
1:18:38
Dude, I was just having a good time that whole time I feel
1:18:41
like. Yeah, we all were though.
1:18:42
It was, it was just nice. To just.
1:18:44
But nothing hits like barbecues. Hang out with everyone.
1:18:47
Got got to talk. Yeah, bullshit.
1:18:50
Made a lot of. Connections.
1:18:50
They had Twisted Teas there. So the whole time I'm getting a
1:18:53
good buzz going. Yeah.
1:18:55
And then, then, yeah, that. Now it's time to go.
1:18:57
It's 6:00 we're. I kept going to Eddie.
1:19:00
I was like, Eddie, what's the latest time we could be there?
1:19:03
He's we were like 8:00 PM is the latest time that we can be
1:19:06
standing right there ready to get in the plane.
1:19:07
And I was like, OK, so start working your way back from that.
1:19:09
So, so then it's yeah. And I this is like this is.
1:19:12
Going to take us this long to get here.
1:19:13
This long this is. Where my brain was mathing OK,
1:19:15
we were leaving there at 6:00. And they told us the airport was
1:19:19
going to be easy. Easy.
1:19:21
Which it kind of was, Yeah, it was actually dead as.
1:19:25
Fuck tricked you at 1st at first.
1:19:27
I was scared so. But those were arriving.
1:19:29
I guess 6:00 we're leaving, let's say what did it take half
1:19:32
an hour to get to the airport? It was supposed to be like 40
1:19:37
minutes from their shop. OK, so 40 minutes from their
1:19:41
shop. But we had to make a stop.
1:19:43
Yeah, 30 minutes down the way. We had to go to.
1:19:45
The a different car rental. Oh.
1:19:48
Oh yeah, we had to hit the car rental beforehand, so put that
1:19:50
in account So so. That's 40.
1:19:52
Minutes 6 O clock, 40 minutes flat.
1:19:54
We go straight to the airport. If there was no car rental,
1:19:57
nothing, you're dropped off right at the airport. 640 we
1:19:59
would have landed. This is how I was doing the
1:20:01
math. It sounds like we got time.
1:20:02
In my mind, I'm like, OK, if I want to get through security and
1:20:07
get through to the gate by 8, I'd have to get at security at
1:20:11
like 7:30 or 7:45 just to play it safe to be there at to be
1:20:17
there at 8. I'm talking the worst half cup,
1:20:21
half empty. Oh, OK.
1:20:22
Yeah. So I'm like, OK.
1:20:24
Yeah, I think I was thinking 7:30 for the airport.
1:20:26
I was like, OK, that leaves us 30 minutes if Frankie was going
1:20:31
to get Q and try to get BBQ because he's driving and we have
1:20:34
no choice where Frankie drives half an hour and then we have to
1:20:39
take a different way and we have to return the car.
1:20:42
The car was a questionable. One and we have to eat.
1:20:45
Yeah. So then we get to the BBQ spot.
1:20:48
It's called Grubs. We picked one on the side.
1:20:50
Of the road, it was fucking amazing.
1:20:51
And he found a random one I. Had a chopped brisket sandwich.
1:20:54
And my favorite part was when we went up there and we go, oh,
1:20:56
Carl goes, you all got any brisket left?
1:20:58
And he turns and he goes. I just got started and we all
1:21:01
fucking went yo I. Said Clap.
1:21:03
We were. Like I was like we getting
1:21:05
fresh. I was like, I, I literally like
1:21:07
was like, oh hell. Yeah, we all were like, yeah, it
1:21:11
was like a movie, dude. My face, he.
1:21:12
Literally turns around from the grill.
1:21:14
He's like, I just got started. I was like.
1:21:16
Yeah, you're all cheering. I'm.
1:21:17
I'm there like, yes, fuck yeah. And then down below, I'm
1:21:20
literally like, Oh my fucking God, we're gonna have no time.
1:21:23
We're gonna hurry up. I thought about that a little
1:21:24
bit. So then they make the food.
1:21:26
I had a chopped brisket sandwich, Eddie had a sliced 1.
1:21:29
I got way too much fish. It was really fish again.
1:21:32
He got rib fries. Frankie got ribs, jambalaya and
1:21:35
brisket. And beans and.
1:21:36
Beans, your potato salad I had. I inhaled that shit.
1:21:41
I could not finish my food because I I would need more.
1:21:44
My mouth is like watering. Thinking about You 2.
1:21:46
I'm so hungry. Oh man.
1:21:48
Oh, it'd. Be so good.
1:21:49
I had to, I had to donate my food to these guys because I was
1:21:51
like, we gotta, we can't leave this food here.
1:21:53
We gotta finish. Dude, I've been on an
1:21:55
uncrustables thing and I'm gonna devour this and inhale this in
1:21:57
a. 2nd And everyone was there was cool, like everybody we
1:22:00
talked to. Just talking to everybody, she
1:22:02
said. Where where you coming from?
1:22:03
Or whatever and then. Carl gave him the whole like
1:22:05
shakedown. I told her everything that we
1:22:07
did just exactly. I just did the past hour on this
1:22:09
podcast. Yeah, like literally every
1:22:11
little thing that we did. Oh, remember, she's like, we're
1:22:14
talking about cars. She's like, oh, they like cars
1:22:15
down here. I was like, yeah, I can tell.
1:22:17
I can tell I'll be back. It is a it is a very big
1:22:21
automotive scene down there. It feels like I.
1:22:22
Need that fucking sandwich right now on a big ass piece of Texas
1:22:26
toast too. It was like an inch and a half
1:22:28
thick worth of fucking brisket chopped up.
1:22:31
Was yours fatty or because it was?
1:22:32
Yours. It was all right that brisket,
1:22:34
since it was pretty smoked out pretty well.
1:22:36
I wasn't even noticing the fat dude the.
1:22:38
Fucking ribs were good. Yeah, they look pretty good.
1:22:41
The ribs were good. Anyway, so we finished eating
1:22:43
and now guess what? Worst part of the night we got
1:22:45
to try to return this fucking. Rental it's like 7.
1:22:49
Six. It was still 6, was it?
1:22:51
It was like 640 because food took like maybe 30-40 minutes,
1:22:55
yeah. Longer than we wanted.
1:22:56
So 6:30 to 6:40. So then we returned the rental
1:22:59
car. It's like 7 at the rental car
1:23:01
spot. I remember because now we're
1:23:03
counting this shit the fuck down.
1:23:05
Eddie. We're waiting for the shuttle.
1:23:07
Yeah, it's like 7 O 5. I was like, so like, what time
1:23:10
do we call the Uber? Yeah.
1:23:11
Because like, because I was going to suggest that, but you
1:23:15
guys are pretty adamant on the shuttle.
1:23:16
Well, we were just like. I was like we.
1:23:19
Were like 710. Do we call?
1:23:20
We get the week, I'm at 7:10. I call the Uber.
1:23:24
So yeah, 710 rolls around. Eddie calls the Uber.
1:23:27
As soon as Eddie calls the Uber, the fucking shuttle rolls in.
1:23:31
Eddie cancels the shuttle, pays the $5.
1:23:33
But we cancelled too soon. We should have cancelled when we
1:23:35
went in and said, remember, we cancel it, we walk out, he goes,
1:23:39
Oh yeah, I just got to make a drop real quick.
1:23:40
I was like. Bro, it's a, it's a shuttle full
1:23:42
of senior citizens. I was like, I'm like, fuck shit,
1:23:45
these guys are going to fucking break a knee getting out of this
1:23:47
shit. But then he pulls away and I was
1:23:49
like, oh, we're making it. Yeah, dude, he punched it.
1:23:51
And then the lady next to me, I was like, oh gosh.
1:23:54
I was like, yo, we're making it tonight.
1:23:57
Once I saw him drive, I was like, oh, he.
1:23:59
Dropped him off, then it was an empty bus.
1:24:01
Then he kept saying and he was like Terminal C He kept going
1:24:06
like the wrong way there was there was like a commercial side
1:24:09
I guess. So thank God he was.
1:24:10
Like, yeah, he's like cutting through.
1:24:12
He was cutting through, he was cutting it up.
1:24:13
We kept passing Terminal C departures and I was.
1:24:19
Like, I'm in my own world. So then when someone else is
1:24:21
driving, I'm just in my I'm like, well.
1:24:23
We get to the thing now. It's real to me, like we're
1:24:26
probably fine. It's like I don't.
1:24:28
Know. Yeah, I don't know.
1:24:29
It's literally. Like 7. 20 Is that before you
1:24:33
said everyone in the airport? He dropped us at the arrivals
1:24:36
area. Yeah, and like 7. 372725.
1:24:41
Yeah, we knew we were fine. Now we like went in there,
1:24:44
fucking took a piss, took a shit, walked around.
1:24:47
I I like got my seat assignment. No, we walked in to the arrivals
1:24:52
area. We saw a hell of people there.
1:24:54
Oh yeah. And we started panicking like,
1:24:55
oh shit, it's busy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:24:58
We're going up the escalator. Carl's like you just had to get
1:25:01
fucking BBQ. I'm like, yeah, we were like, we
1:25:03
were all the same. Here we go.
1:25:04
And then for me, you're missing this part, I said.
1:25:08
I kept saying totally fine for me if I missed this shit.
1:25:12
I didn't give a damn either. You're like, like, I'm going to
1:25:15
call Brad and that means maybe I'll be able to go with him.
1:25:18
Carl's like bye guy. I'm going to have a Brad I'll.
1:25:20
Be able to go to work with Brad? Maybe he could teach me how to
1:25:23
do some PDRS? Like a job.
1:25:25
Something that I could offer for my business, like I was ready to
1:25:28
stay. We have to check in the bag too.
1:25:31
Oh, we just more worried about that than anything.
1:25:32
We. Dropped the bag.
1:25:34
Yeah, all that shit. Because there's a lot of money
1:25:36
in there and. Then then then then like comedy
1:25:40
dude, we were going through security every hold up possible
1:25:45
because I left my passport because I took the 4:45 Uber.
1:25:47
But you were. So then I had to show them a
1:25:49
thing. But you were ready.
1:25:51
You were prepared. I was.
1:25:52
But the the thing the guy said was like, hold on one second.
1:25:56
I was like. So this was the day that they
1:25:58
changed the rules where now you have to pay $45 if you don't
1:26:02
have a REAL ID. Yeah, luckily Carl knew this and
1:26:06
he did the thing on this phone before we got there.
1:26:08
Yeah, some people were standing there that didn't do that.
1:26:11
Yeah. And I was like, imagine there
1:26:12
was more of them. We would have been fucked.
1:26:14
All I could thinking about in my head was if I screenshot of this
1:26:17
e-mail and texted it to somebody and literally like fucking Fudd
1:26:20
this, Fudd this the whole thing, you would, you would go through.
1:26:22
It's such a fucking scam. So like, and by the way, my
1:26:26
passport, the drawer that I checked that morning, like I
1:26:30
pulled it open, no passport closed it.
1:26:34
You know where the passport was if I pulled the drawer out that
1:26:38
much more. It was right there.
1:26:39
It was literally right there, like I slammed the drawer the
1:26:42
last so you looked. For it, you just didn't.
1:26:44
Yeah, I just, the dude was in the driveway and I know that you
1:26:46
get charged like he could leave then I'm fucked getting Uber at
1:26:50
4:45 in the. Morning.
1:26:52
But they let you through. They got you.
1:26:53
Yeah, so, so they let me through and then.
1:26:56
My dad gets checked every time. Bro Frankie's bag gets
1:26:59
additionally searched and we're rushing by the way me and that's
1:27:02
in my video. I'm like I look like A tag 5
1:27:04
minutes to boarding. Frankie is the only one at the
1:27:07
security thing. Then then we go we.
1:27:10
Go, we have time. Yeah, we we get to the plane, me
1:27:13
and Eddie are walking plane normal, not rushing or anything.
1:27:16
Yeah, Then I walk on, then I get on the plane and I'm like, what?
1:27:19
And I see Carl first class. I'm like.
1:27:22
Oh, it was not for economy Plus it was like, it was like the
1:27:24
first row after. That it was pretty close though.
1:27:26
It was pretty close. It was pretty sweet.
1:27:28
And I'm like oh OK, my fault. And then I walk like 11 aisle
1:27:31
down. One aisle he's fucking behind
1:27:32
me, Eddie's right behind me. Like the whole row to himself.
1:27:35
He's like, where? Where's your seat?
1:27:36
I was like, you know where the shitter is in the back?
1:27:38
That's where I am. Everyone's like, huh, that was
1:27:41
funny though. I was I because he was walking
1:27:44
by Eddie. I'm like, where are you sitting?
1:27:46
He's like, you know, you know where the bathroom is.
1:27:51
It was good though that flight wasn't.
1:27:52
Nevermind that flight was pretty bad, but.
1:27:53
What was it? Oh, for you.
1:27:55
Sorry. But I could have, I had, I could
1:27:58
have ran up there, maybe the. Guy next to me because trying to
1:28:01
make the fuck out of his out of his dominance by using the
1:28:03
armrest. Oh I hate that shit.
1:28:05
I didn't really give a shit I would.
1:28:06
I like my. Actual aisle was fine.
1:28:08
I just took myself into the middle there and just like use
1:28:11
the tension of my arms to not move Yeah and then just pass the
1:28:14
fuck out. Like I literally I'm sick.
1:28:16
You're. Even in a bigger seat and it's
1:28:18
still miserable up there. Well, the bigger seat.
1:28:21
What I could do now is I'll get into this formation like I'll
1:28:25
just hit one of these. Yeah.
1:28:28
Now I'm pretty much standing and laying down like this.
1:28:30
I could fucking stay like this for hours.
1:28:32
Are they? They're wider like.
1:28:34
No, they. Can't be right.
1:28:35
And my power outlet, my power outlet didn't.
1:28:38
Work like space. My power outlet didn't work.
1:28:40
My phone was dying. My headphones kept dying.
1:28:43
First class looked nice though. Yeah, I mean.
1:28:47
Look at the 1st. Two seats, I'm like, this is
1:28:49
ODI. Could have got that.
1:28:51
It's just like it's not really worth it.
1:28:53
You could have did it for the same price like.
1:28:55
Yeah, but it's, it's like the gamble to fucking get it anyway.
1:28:59
It's just whatever. So I was sitting like this and
1:29:03
then my power outlet wasn't working.
1:29:04
So you know what I did? I I turned around and I was
1:29:06
like, Eddie, Eddie, can you plug it in right here?
1:29:10
Like on the on the other aisle and now it was even perfect,
1:29:13
like better because now the plug was like right here.
1:29:17
And then we got home at 1:00 in the morning or something.
1:29:19
Like that landed at like 115. Oh, and then dude, people were
1:29:21
plugging out on that plane when it landed in the back.
1:29:24
Why? Because the lights went out and
1:29:25
we were standing there and the plane didn't even park yet
1:29:28
because you know when you land and then everyone's like, oh,
1:29:30
better get up. And I'm like, it's going to be
1:29:32
another 30 minutes before you get off the plane.
1:29:33
I don't know why you're standing, but they didn't even
1:29:36
get to the gate yet. And then we got to the gate or
1:29:39
whatever, and then the lights go out and then you just hear a
1:29:41
dude. He's like, we all got somewhere
1:29:44
to be. Everyone showed the fuck out.
1:29:45
Like because they were just, people were fucking rushing.
1:29:47
Like you're all fucking trying to leave.
1:29:49
I'm like, where are you going? The doors not open.
1:29:51
It was open for us. So weird when the lights were
1:29:56
off I. Didn't even know there was.
1:29:57
A light on the back right when I was getting my bags to like walk
1:30:01
out. Yeah, yeah, We were fucking
1:30:03
obviously standing there for a bit.
1:30:05
Yeah. I mean, I, I was sitting down
1:30:07
because I'm not retarded. I.
1:30:07
Was comfortable that whole plane was run by people of my
1:30:10
generation. It was kind of funny.
1:30:11
Oh dude, swear to God, the one lady.
1:30:15
What? What did she say there?
1:30:16
Oh, you went to the back, right? Yeah.
1:30:18
They were all hanging out like midway through the flight.
1:30:20
I was like my mouth dry as hell right now.
1:30:23
You walk by me then. Yeah, I walked straight to the
1:30:25
back, went in there. I was like, hey, what?
1:30:30
I guess could I be able to get some water?
1:30:32
The one dude was like, Nah, I was like, oh, And he was like,
1:30:37
Nah, I'm just kidding. Here you go.
1:30:37
I'm gonna get you some. He's like reaching all the
1:30:39
different cabinets and shit. I'm like looking at all the
1:30:41
compartments. I'm like, this is inefficient as
1:30:43
fuck. Why is Everything Everywhere?
1:30:44
Yeah, So then gives me water. Go right back up to the front.
1:30:48
I'm not going to lie. I tried looking for you.
1:30:51
Couldn't find you. I Yeah, I left.
1:30:52
I was gone. That was it.
1:30:55
Yeah. It was a good time.
1:30:56
Then I got into my. Yeah, it is all right.
1:30:58
Dude, I felt every time you take a Uber where it's like a fancy
1:31:01
1, you just feel like a fucking celebrity because we just went.
1:31:03
On Yeah, you do feel like a celebrity.
1:31:04
We just went on like a podcast tripping shit.
1:31:06
Like my bad. Like I was just recording a
1:31:08
podcast and let me get into the backseat.
1:31:10
This fucking Chevy Suburban. Yeah, our Uber was probably
1:31:12
like, what the fuck these guys do for a living?
1:31:13
Because we're like talking about them.
1:31:15
We're like, yeah, we got to do this.
1:31:16
But yeah, we record like we're talking about the episodes, like
1:31:19
what we did. And I was like, I wonder what he
1:31:20
he thinks the fuck we do. And then I think we said podcast
1:31:23
or whatever and. I got in the guy I had.
1:31:25
He thought we had a weapon at first because I was like, yo,
1:31:27
it's not a bomb, by the way. And he's like, no, I know what
1:31:29
these cases are. I was like, well, it's not that
1:31:30
either man, but thanks. Yeah, my guy did not speak a
1:31:36
lick of English. He took the wrong way.
1:31:37
We ended up at Newark Airport at the spot that I want to drift
1:31:40
like it's like the backside. Of the air, I was wondering how
1:31:42
long your Uber would have been from there.
1:31:43
It's. Like 30 minutes, 35 minutes.
1:31:45
But like, so I'm the first person, I'm the closest person
1:31:48
to Newark that lives. This shop is closer.
1:31:52
Yeah, but who the fuck lives in these walls that could pick
1:31:54
somebody up? We got, we got back here and we
1:31:58
fucking, we were like here for like 10-15 minutes, right?
1:32:01
We're just trying to go through shit.
1:32:03
As a reference, like when people land at Newark and they want me
1:32:06
to pick them up, it's close. They will literally tell me, yo,
1:32:09
I just landed, and then I'll I'll get up right then I'll be
1:32:12
like smarter go, then just go. Then by the time I get there,
1:32:16
they're like walking out. Yeah, it's the it's what I do
1:32:18
every time. But yeah, I just sat in the back
1:32:20
of that Suburban felt really accomplished because we got five
1:32:23
really good podcasts, really good trip it.
1:32:26
Was really good. It was just really, really fun
1:32:28
time. I put questions.
1:32:30
Oh, you did. I did.
1:32:31
Oh, I didn't fucking know that. You want to ask some of them?
1:32:33
I guess I didn't know that. Maxwell, Maxwell, How was the
1:32:41
food? Food was great.
1:32:44
Next. Food was amazing dude I want to
1:32:47
go back there. I had Tex mex as.
1:32:48
Far as Zach favorite food slash best memory slash sleeping
1:32:53
arrangements. Sleeping was great food for me.
1:32:57
BBQ. I think you guys could agree on
1:32:59
that. Yes dude, the Tex mex I had was
1:33:02
pretty fucking good. Beans.
1:33:03
Beans, rice, tumodellos, steak, chicken and some tortillas.
1:33:08
I was pretty. Happy, Yeah, and and probably
1:33:11
not try another chicken place. All right.
1:33:14
Next question. Yeah, probably not pluckers.
1:33:16
I probably would have had something else too.
1:33:18
But I I there are probably some things that pluckers I would
1:33:20
like you. Don't got to read all of them
1:33:24
any just make sure you got that people.
1:33:25
Are just saying come back. Oh Zach, tricks come back soon.
1:33:28
Damn, people are saying we will, we will be back.
1:33:30
Dude I wish we got to see Jed. I felt like such a scumbag for
1:33:33
not being able to see him. I talked to him, He's all right.
1:33:35
I told him what we're what we're planning.
1:33:38
You know what we're planning. Yeah, we're going there for
1:33:40
that, yeah. Yeah, you gave me the dates.
1:33:43
We're going there for that. I don't give a fuck.
1:33:46
Is it this year? Yeah.
1:33:47
What is it warm? Warm enough?
1:33:49
Yeah, that. Means it's not.
1:33:52
That means it's kind of soon, right?
1:33:53
I mean. It's got to be fucking.
1:33:54
Cold. It's like may I think something
1:33:55
like? That fire.
1:33:56
The rest are kind of just silly. Just silly.
1:33:58
Give me give me a couple of silly ones.
1:34:00
Let me get a jacket. Wait, what?
1:34:03
How the hell do they hear about that already?
1:34:04
They're in the Patreon probably. Yeah.
1:34:08
Oh, he is. He's watching the Patreon.
1:34:10
Oh yeah, yeah. Yeah, these jackets will not be
1:34:12
for sale. Sorry boys.
1:34:14
Yeah, dude, I got this one right here.
1:34:16
What's that? Cornbread.
1:34:17
I didn't have any cornbread. Who was that?
1:34:18
Wags. No RPS 13, Gary.
1:34:23
Sorry, Gary, we didn't have any cornbread.
1:34:25
Yeah, we didn't really have. We didn't get to experience the
1:34:28
BBQ we wanted to, but we did stop at a place that, you know,
1:34:33
curved our appetite, as you will say.
1:34:35
Yeah, it was like, yeah, that might have been like the best
1:34:37
place to go last night for the. Time we need 100%.
1:34:40
That was perfect. Hole in the wall.
1:34:42
Yeah, no one there. That's how it works out, Eddie,
1:34:44
sometimes. I was moving through.
1:34:46
That I wouldn't know because I'm late to everything, but
1:34:48
sometimes that just how it works out sometimes, you know?
1:34:51
But yeah. So anyway, before we leave, we
1:34:54
want to let you guys know these podcasts will all be on the
1:34:57
Patreon by next week. Some of them will be on by the
1:35:01
time you're listening to this. So if you want, check out our
1:35:03
Patreon. Yes, that is a paywall that
1:35:05
these are behind right now. Yeah, we're poor.
1:35:07
But they will be being released relatively soon.
1:35:13
But if you're bored at work and you need something to listen to,
1:35:15
make sure to sign up for the. Patreon.
1:35:16
Yeah, check out our Patreon. There's three tiers.
1:35:17
You don't got to you. Don't got to go crazy and get
1:35:19
like the wild one. Right, there's a $5 tier, $10
1:35:22
tier 15 and also the Patreon is the best way to support US if
1:35:27
you are into this podcast. So that means I get paid,
1:35:30
Malcolm gets paid, it funds the trips.
1:35:32
It does help fund the trips, so if you want us to keep going
1:35:35
everywhere, which we do want to do this year, then that would be
1:35:39
the best way to help us. So we do appreciate it.
1:35:41
Bro, if anybody out there got cool shit for me to do because
1:35:44
I'm a free agent, I could fucking fly wherever and do
1:35:46
whatever and give me a fun activity, I'm down.
1:35:48
Yeah, he he is a painter on the go.
1:35:51
So if you got a good setup or something.
1:35:52
Yeah, I guess that could work. You could just don't try to
1:35:55
fucking molest me or something when I go there, Yeah.
1:35:57
Or like give me a hotel nearby. Yeah, you can do that.
1:35:59
Yeah, Maybe we should have said this.
1:36:01
You're gonna get, you're gonna get hit up.
1:36:03
I'll fucking paint in the middle of a grass field.
1:36:05
I don't give. A shit, isn't painting like kind
1:36:06
of like a long process though or no?
1:36:08
Did it in like 2 days for Brad. So you just need like a weekend?
1:36:12
Yeah, if the car is not 100% shitty.
1:36:14
If the car isn't a fully piece of shit, but yeah, there's some
1:36:16
things I could do to make it work OK.
1:36:18
Cool, so that's something too. That might be extra charge.
1:36:22
Yeah, yeah. Check out our Patreon, the
1:36:22
podcast. We'll be up there by next week
1:36:24
and they will be coming out slowly after that, probably over
1:36:29
the course of a few months, let's put it that way.
1:36:32
Nando, if you give Malcolm boots, give me two.
1:36:34
I'm the same size. When we go back there, I'm going
1:36:38
with him to get like a whole cowboy outfit.
1:36:40
Oh, OK. I talked.
1:36:41
I talked to him. That sounds nice.
1:36:42
We'll film that too. Dude, just the boots.
1:36:44
And guess what? I'd wear the shit out of a
1:36:46
mirror too until they're worn. That way it looks like I'm out
1:36:49
there ranching. It was land man out there, I'll
1:36:52
tell you that. You.
1:36:52
Kept bringing that up every fucking.
1:36:54
Yo, we're in land. That's like a fucking.
1:36:56
Truck just in front of us. That's like land.
1:36:58
Man, like when Jersey Shore was out, that's like when people
1:37:00
would be like, oh, I'm from Jersey.
1:37:01
And. They're like, oh, oh, like
1:37:03
Jersey Shore. No bitch.
1:37:04
No, but the first time I did say it, I got the best response.
1:37:08
Everyone in the room was like, yeah, we watched the show.
1:37:11
Yeah. I was like, oh.
1:37:11
Shit, I was like, yeah, that last season was kind of mid.
1:37:14
He was. OK dude, give it a give it a
1:37:16
break bro. Whatever, all right, Lawyer
1:37:18
bitch. We'll see you next week.
1:37:20
I don't know who's coming or what we're doing, but we'll see
1:37:22
you then. Yeah, that's right.
1:37:25
Are we cool? Good night.
1:37:27
Thank you, guys from everybody in Texas or to everybody from
1:37:30
Texas from us. It was amazing hospitality, an
1:37:33
amazing time. Thank you, Brad and see you on
1:37:37
the next. One big X the plug.
1:37:39
Later. All right.
1:38:37
Well, that covers that. I mean, I don't think we really
1:38:40
left anything out of that. No.
1:38:43
We got Eddie here on the outro this time, so Malcolm's,
1:38:47
Malcolm's too busy out there in the shop right now.
1:38:49
He's he's shipping parts, he's boxing body kits up, he's doing
1:38:53
the stuff like that. So.
1:38:55
But yeah. What was your favorite part of
1:38:57
the trip, Eddie? Favorite part of the trip?
1:39:00
Yeah, that's a hard to choose. Is it?
1:39:05
I think the way we were able to get BBQ last minute, Yeah, still
1:39:10
make it to the airport, I can get home.
1:39:14
Don't worry, you're gonna be experiencing a lot of
1:39:16
situations. Like not on me.
1:39:20
That's my entire life. I.
1:39:21
Think I I, I saw myself in the shower and I was like, oh,
1:39:24
that's a new Gray hair. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:39:28
That's kind of how it goes, I guess.
1:39:30
But hey, it's the throw of the chase, right?
1:39:33
You know, I don't know what that means, but I don't either.
1:39:36
But I thought it worked, guys. Yeah, these podcasts that we
1:39:40
recorded on this trip are awesome.
1:39:43
Some of my favorites, obviously, but I say that every time, so
1:39:46
it's hard to really know. It's hard to trust me when I say
1:39:48
that. You have a favorite podcast?
1:39:50
From this trip. Yeah, who'd you put?
1:39:55
I definitely have. There's got to be a favorite.
1:39:58
I would say the Jimmy podcast was really fun.
1:40:03
I have to say that because we were getting kind of.
1:40:08
Rowdy, we were just saying whatever the fuck we want to
1:40:09
say. Like when we took that little
1:40:10
intermission and then we came back, I was like, he was like,
1:40:14
save it for the pot save. We'll just say it on the podcast
1:40:16
because I was like, yo, how do you feel about?
1:40:18
He's like, no, I say I got a lot to say.
1:40:20
I was like, OK, all right. That one was fun.
1:40:22
I don't know if it's because it was the last one, but the one
1:40:27
with with Zach Triggs and and Mike.
1:40:30
Yeah, that one was the fat cats. Yeah, fat cats.
1:40:34
That one. That one was like, I don't know,
1:40:39
it felt. It felt like the finale, kind
1:40:41
of. It did.
1:40:42
And the way they had like a send off with their whole team.
1:40:45
Yeah, the whole crew was there like it.
1:40:46
It felt very, I mean, we felt very home at all of these.
1:40:51
We felt very welcomed at all of them.
1:40:52
But that one specifically felt even more so.
1:40:56
And last but not least, I got to, I got to say Colin's
1:40:58
episode. Yeah.
1:41:00
Colin from Oblivion, boy does he have a story for you guys.
1:41:04
So that that's going to be an interesting one for everyone to
1:41:08
listen to. He started drifting when he was
1:41:09
14 years old. So yeah.
1:41:13
And it's it's just a weird path. It's not the normal, it's not
1:41:18
the normal path. Like he didn't start drifting
1:41:20
when he was 14. And then now he's a pro driver.
1:41:23
It's almost the opposite. So this is.
1:41:25
Like a path of like a prodigy. Yeah, so that one's really good
1:41:29
too. You guys are going to enjoy
1:41:30
these episodes a lot. So if you want access to them
1:41:33
now, if you want, if you can't wait a few months, join our

products very shortly. So I think we will be able to
1:42:30
get you those bash bars as well. I can't say what they're for
1:42:33
yet, but let's just say it's one of the, it's one of the more

1:42:41
coming from Limitless Auto Fab in the near future.
1:42:45

1:42:47

1:43:06
We have a YouTube. Eddie is the leader of our
1:43:09
YouTube. I am the leader and you are.
1:43:10
Captain, you are the captain. So what's going on our YouTube
1:43:15
recently? Not much, we've had a recent FRS
1:43:20
video. Yeah, that FRS was here for
1:43:22
alignment, right? I believe coil over height and
1:43:27
preload. Oh, OK.
1:43:28
So we're doing a height adjustment, preload adjustment,
1:43:30
and then of course, followed by an alignment.
1:43:32
Really clean car. Carl recently painted that car I
1:43:35
believe too. So it was kind of cool to have
1:43:38
that in here and actually do a little video on it.
1:43:41
But yeah, we we got more videos coming, guys.
1:43:42
We have a lot of content coming from this trip as well.
1:43:45
So if you're, if you're in the Houston area, you want to see
1:43:48
some of your boys on on camera, now would be the time to check
1:43:51
out our YouTube. That's pretty much it.
1:43:54
I mean, we don't have too much going on right now.
1:43:56
We just want to get these episodes out to you guys as soon
1:43:59
as possible. So Eddie is doing everything he
1:44:00
can to make sure they're on the Patreon by next week.
1:44:03
So that is that. But last and not least, do not
1:44:08
forget our sponsors because they are the ones directly helping us
1:44:12
do these trips for podcasts. So of course, we got East Coast
1:44:16
Drift School, our longest, our longest sponsor of this podcast,
1:44:20
Raceway Park. Raceway Park at Inglishtown, New
1:44:23
Jersey is the place to go for drifting.
1:44:26
It's been that way for a long time.
1:44:28
Chris Knapp over there, he's going to be the one you want to,
1:44:32
you know, get in touch with on Instagram at East Coast Drift
1:44:34
School. He's going to be the one that's
1:44:35
going to tell you the schedule, everything like that.
1:44:38
He'll get you in there for a good price.
1:44:40
You have seat time, you'll have access to the track.
1:44:42
You'll be able to see, you know, you can see the whole, you can
1:44:46
scope the whole area out. You know, maybe you're planning
1:44:49
on doing one of those gambler events of his and you want to
1:44:51
get a little inside scoop before you do the event.
1:44:54
That's possible as well. He does a lot of pro am training
1:44:58
and stuff like that over there. People come out and do their
1:45:00
private sessions before they hit the track for competitions this
1:45:05
season. So honestly it is a school.
1:45:10
He will teach you how to drift, but more so he will give you a
1:45:13
track to use if you need to practice.
1:45:15
So check him out at East Coaster School on Instagram.
1:45:19

Ramstad MFG, they make that super cool wheel fitment tool.
1:45:42
I change the name of that every time I say it, but it really is.
1:45:45
It really is for fitment. Basically you set your width,
1:45:49
you set your diameter, you set your offset of the wheels you're
1:45:52
looking to put on the car, you throw it on the hub and boom,
1:45:55
you know if it clears your Fender or not and or your
1:45:58
suspension. You never know.
1:45:59
So we use it here in the shop all the time.

drifting content. So if you are a drifter in the
1:47:22
US and you want to get and you still want a physical magazine,
1:47:26
