- 0:00Welcome back to another episode of Faction Motorsports After
- 0:03Hours podcast. That's not the name of the show,
- 0:05but I'm going to keep saying it like that in every intro because
- 0:08it sounds better. On today's episode we have
- 0:10David, Bob, Dave. Bob is a local here and he is
- 0:14actually the owner of Futego Line Shop, a parts company that
- 0:17makes parts of BRZ's and FRS vehicles.

- 0:33website, Instagram everything. We're going to have it in the
- 0:36show notes on this episode and we also sell his parts on our
- 0:40website so make sure you check them out.
- 0:42If you are a fan or owner of the BRZ or FRS86 chassis, this
- 0:48episode is going to be a great one for you and make sure to

- 1:29This podcast is also sponsored by Automotive Specialty Wraps.
- 1:32Automotive Specialty Wraps is a company specializing in paint
- 1:35protection, film, vehicle wraps, ceramic coatings and window
- 1:38tinting. Located in Fairlawn, New Jersey.
- 1:40Owned and operated by car enthusiasts and Drifters, their
- 1:43technicians have over 10 years of experience in the industry.
- 1:47The ceramic coating is what really caught my attention when
- 1:49they reached out to us. This coating basically gives
- 1:52your cars paint extra UV protection while also making it
- 1:55shine. Wax only lasts for a couple
- 1:57weeks at most, but ceramic coating lasts for a year or
- 2:00longer. They perform a full two stage
- 2:03Polish to the car beforehand to make sure the vehicle is in
- 2:05perfect condition before applying the coating.
- 2:08As mentioned, they also offer window tinting and paint
- 2:11protection film installations. Now everyone knows what window
- 2:14tinting is, but these guys offer carbon or ceramic tinting
- 2:18depending on your goals with the vehicle.
- 2:20Paint protection film or PPF is a great idea for those new
- 2:24vehicle owners that don't want to get stuck behind an 18
- 2:26Wheeler on the way home one night and then get out and
- 2:29realize your front end is littered with rock chips.
- 2:31I'm looking at you Subaru owners.
- 2:33Paint sucks, so make sure you protect it fast before you
- 2:36regret it and need a new paint job.
- 2:38Also keep in mind they are capable of getting liveries
- 2:41designed and installed as well as full vehicle wraps.
- 2:45From protecting your toe rigs exterior to full livery
- 2:47installations on your drift car, they have you covered.
- 2:51You can contact them at automotive specialtywraps.com
- 2:54and make sure to give them a follow on Instagram at
- 2:57Automotive Specialty Wraps. Tell you guys that right now

- 3:33Welcome everybody to the Faction After Hours podcast.
- 3:36We almost forgot to do the intro just then.
- 3:37I was waiting for you to do it so, but that's why I wasn't
- 3:40saying anything. Yeah, we, we have a guest
- 3:41tonight. We have David, Bob, live
- 3:43audience conference. David Bob Live audience is just
- 3:46Chris. In.
- 3:49The background? It's Chris.
- 3:51So Dave. Bob brought me Liquid Death and
- 3:54I didn't say anything till right now because I wanted to do it on
- 3:56the podcast. Why is that?
- 3:58Is that water? I want you to explain this to
- 4:00me. It's it's literally water.
- 4:00It's just water. It's.
- 4:03First person I saw it through was Cody, right?
- 4:05His garage. Cody, he takes that shit all the
- 4:07time. Really.
- 4:08Hipster water, it looked, yeah, yeah, it's.
- 4:11Water in a can. I almost bought a case of this
- 4:13when I was at the grocery store the other night.
- 4:15I was like, I need this. I don't know why I need this.
- 4:18And then I was like I don't need this because.
- 4:20It says liquid death. You're like, maybe this will
- 4:22bring me closer. I don't know.
- 4:23But I'm gonna crack one of these bitches open.
- 4:24Well, I thought two different ones.
- 4:25I don't know. Sparkling water is gonna make
- 4:27me, like, just puke. Cuz I well I.
- 4:30Thought that it was thoughtful of David.
- 4:32Yeah. Thank you, man.
- 4:33I appreciate that. I can't call you Dave.
- 4:35I just had to say, David, Bob, I tried to stop myself just then I
- 4:37was about to be just call you Dave, you want anybody?
- 4:40Dave Bob works this one. I need a really weird thing.
- 4:43Now that I'm about to open this, I don't know if I've ever drank
- 4:45anything out of a can. Really.
- 4:47Straight up, what would you drink?
- 4:48Out of a can. I don't drink soda or any soda.
- 4:50Soda. You don't drink tomato.
- 4:51Taste. Excuse me?
- 4:54I'm trying to think of something in a can.
- 4:55I've never even. There's no way Open to canned.
- 4:58There's no way you haven't had a canned yoohoo before.
- 5:00In high school I might have had a can Yoohoo, but.
- 5:03You went to high school near me. Your high school had canned.
- 5:06The thing is, I fucking hate you.
- 5:07Who? What?
- 5:08You who is good, but it shit goes straight through me.
- 5:11Let's see if this is actually water or if they tricked me.
- 5:14Yeah, that's actually PCP in there, I mean.
- 5:21Buckle up, I hope you got 12 hours.
- 5:25I can confirm I'm never drinking anything out of a can because I
- 5:27don't know what I'm doing right now.
- 5:28You look. So awkward, a little out of
- 5:30place. So those of you who are just
- 5:32tuned into our audio portion, Frankie is holding this.
- 5:35I've never seen someone look so uncomfortable.
- 5:38Hold a can before In your entire life, Dave, you literally just
- 5:41pop my. Can you not?
- 5:42Don't. Leave it on.
- 5:43Don't take that off. Leave it on.
- 5:44Don't. Leave it on cuz it's.
- 5:46Cut your mouth, cut your mouth. All right.
- 5:48Oh, he is a rookie. Wow, dude.
- 5:49I really don't. I really don't know.
- 5:51Like, do you put your whole mouth?
- 5:52On this is so. Push it down.
- 5:53He's. Fucking innocent.
- 5:55Actually, no. Yeah.
- 5:56To drink out of a can, you're supposed to put the whole top of
- 5:59it in your mouth. That's how you do it.
- 6:02I'm serious, Malcolm. Tell him yeah, you show me
- 6:05first. That's why I got you the bigger
- 6:06one. Yeah.
- 6:06His first time? He's got the birthiest scan of
- 6:09the punch. Pause.
- 6:11It's like teaching a kid to breastfeed for the.
- 6:13First, have you really never drank anything?
- 6:15No, and it's kind of annoying. Well, I just wanted to stop and
- 6:17and just. A little bit.
- 6:18Say how the like how much that speaks to David Bob's character,
- 6:22because he thought of you, I know, and you you actually got
- 6:26me. A.
- 6:26And and because we were drinking, he got you something
- 6:29of your own. Hats off to you David.
- 6:30And it is. It is water.
- 6:32Confirmed liquid death is water as it is.
- 6:34I don't. Has it on the can.
- 6:35I just don't don't believe everything you.
- 6:38Ingredients or anything. I hope that when I was there.
- 6:40Water and all it says is. Hey shit I just figured to grab
- 6:44it but. I went to a concert.
- 6:45Just came in a stone. Cold mountain water came
- 6:48straight from the Alps. Yes, to murder your thirst.
- 6:53Fuck. Damn, that's hard.
- 6:54Yep, we need a case of this. Dude, one time I went to a
- 6:56concert once and it was so hot and I think they just ran out of
- 6:59water that they were giving those out and.
- 7:02I thought that it was alcohol, so I just wasn't taking it, so I
- 7:05was just taking the alcohol instead.
- 7:07Well, the good thing about liquid death is that it's not
- 7:10plastic. So yeah.
- 7:12That's cool. Is that the plastic?
- 7:13Is that better? Yeah it's better cuz you can
- 7:15recycle it easier. Yeah, but I don't know if
- 7:17aluminum was that. Good for you either.
- 7:19Yeah, I. Feel like here's my concern the
- 7:22the tinniness of the can might affect my water experience.
- 7:26I love water. OK.
- 7:28We just talked about Poland Spring off camera for a little
- 7:30bit and. A cold Poland spring?
- 7:36I hate cold water. Maybe not even like ice ice.
- 7:37Cold water size, Yeah, I'm not really a cold water person, but.
- 7:39It's hot out OK, but I also do enjoy at room temperature.
- 7:42If you can't enjoy water at room temperature, then you're not a
- 7:45real water lover. I'll tell you what, they
- 7:47probably made this for straight edge people, because drinking
- 7:49this with everyone else when they're drinking beers, it
- 7:52that's better. Yeah, that's it.
- 7:53Some, some. It feels better.
- 7:55I'm pretty sure some bars you go to have that on the side too.
- 7:58For yeah, for a little bit. What I would do if I didn't feel
- 8:01like drinking. When we were out I would do like
- 8:03water with a lime in it, cuz then it looks like a vodka
- 8:06tonic, which is what I would normally drink anyway.
- 8:08You gotta dress the water up. We always do gin and tonic.
- 8:11So yes, gin and tonic. So.
- 8:12Then someone walks over there. It's drinking water now.
- 8:14There's anything with tonic. That's when I'm feeling like a
- 8:15skinny bitch. The canned thing is weird
- 8:17though. You look, you're learning.
- 8:19It's alright. Yeah, look at you.
- 8:20Get a little scar just broke. Ooh, Anthony's car just broke.
- 8:24What? The tow truck pulled.
- 8:27UP tell me he brought his own. Chris, can you, Thank you Chris,
- 8:30we were Anthony Rizzo was here and he's leaving and then we
- 8:33look outside and he's still there in the street and we're
- 8:35like why is he here? He pulled up.
- 8:36He pulled up with his other car. Sorry.
- 8:37And dog as in the tow truck. Yeah, not for nothing, Frankie,
- 8:41but. This is a shop and he still
- 8:45didn't come in here. Yeah, because he knew we were
- 8:47having a pod. We have such nice friends.
- 8:49When we go live, we go live. And and we met.
- 8:52I met Mr. .5 today off the discord.
- 8:54That was a new one that I met. He was like, you didn't even say
- 8:57hi to me. I'm like, I don't.
- 8:58Know what you look like? It was nice to meet him meeting.
- 9:00What? But man, it was.
- 9:03People, Instagram names. I'm the same way.
- 9:04I get that. Oh yeah.
- 9:05I feel like that. Guy I always wonder what their
- 9:08perception is. I'm like they probably think I'm
- 9:10taller. Like, I feel like you have a
- 9:12interesting thing with this because you probably knew so
- 9:15many people through with Instagram names like because
- 9:18everyone interested in the parts you were making.
- 9:20Yeah, I mean, I started with car stuff literally, completely by
- 9:25myself. That that's how it was for me,
- 9:37too, until I met Chris. I had no, like, no friends.
- 9:26Yeah, like before car stuff that were like in the cars.
- 9:30So every single friend that I've ever made from cars was actually
- 9:32from cars. Nobody that I've ever had before
- 9:34was got into cars. That's.
- 9:39Yeah, that Chris was one of my. Like first car friends.
- 9:43OK, yeah. And like, yeah, I kind of I.
- 9:45Kind of just thinking about that the other day because I know you
- 9:47guys had the BM speed stars. Oh my God, you had that sticker
- 9:51on there for so long. That I knew you guys for like I
- 9:54think a year or something before I even had that sticker on the.
- 9:56Car too. I met you at a club.
- 9:58Loose track. To have no idea I was thinking
- 10:00about it the other day, I. Know, I know.
- 10:01Here it is. Here's why I know.
- 10:02Because you had these. Beefy Vskfs on the front of your
- 10:06car, and I was pretty new to drifting.
- 10:09And like, I think I was there in like, Coop and I was like, dude,
- 10:13what the fuck? Like the tires were massive.
- 10:16Yeah. And like they were like.
- 10:18There were seventeens. There were seventeens with 45
- 10:21sidewalls, but they weren't. So now I run 17 by nines with a
- 10:2721545 so it has like a little tiny bit of stretch.
- 10:30Back then I had like no stretch out.
- 10:31It was. Fat huge.
- 10:32So you still have a 45 sidewall on the front?
- 10:35Yeah. So every 17 that I usually only
- 10:37run seventeens on the front, if I run on the back I'll, but
- 10:39usually when it's 17 it's always 45 sidewall.
- 10:41OK. And to those, to those of you,
- 10:44to those people who are listening that don't know What
- 10:46Car you drive, can you tell them?
- 10:47Yes, you drive. I drive a 2013 Subaru BRZ.
- 10:52Dude, that was. I thought it was A.
- 10:54You thought it was FRS? Yeah, this whole time it's.
- 10:57So honestly, they're pretty much the exact same.
- 11:00You're not the better interior, isn't that?
- 11:01Yeah. So when I so mine's a first
- 11:04year, 20 thirteen's of the first year and mine just keep going,
- 11:07just keep going. We always say that.
- 11:11So bring in those questions. No, don't.
- 11:14Frankie's gonna get mad at you if you say that.
- 11:15Don't say that. Trust me now, it's already too
- 11:18late. What was I saying?
- 11:21Yeah, there, so I had mine was the first, yet they came out and
- 11:24mine already came with the push button.
- 11:25It came with the screen, with the GPS, heated seats, all that
- 11:29stuff, so. Damn, imagine that.
- 11:31How much of that does it still have?
- 11:32It probably still has the button.
- 11:34I know you still have the. Button I still have the push to
- 11:36start, the screen's still there do.
- 11:38You still have. A/C Yes, Sir.
- 11:40Yeah. Come on.
- 11:41No. Please now this is all because I
- 11:44know that you St. drove that car a lot.
- 11:47At least to events all the time, like I'd never knew you the.
- 11:51Trailer. That was my daily.
- 11:52Yeah, yeah. I literally used to like,
- 11:54deliver. People as of recently I used
- 11:56Yeah, remember at at I remember dude.
- 11:58Yeah. At Summit I was literally like,
- 12:00you're turboed. Like what?
- 12:03Like I was like, what is that or something.
- 12:05I was just shocked because. I was like, yeah, I guess it
- 12:08does look kind of faster. Yeah, I'm and a little louder
- 12:11too. It definitely makes cool noises.
- 12:12Yeah, I'm really bad with Internet stuff.
- 12:14I take a million pictures and a million videos, but I fucking
- 12:17don't post anything. When did you That's like
- 12:18Frankie. Sure.
- 12:19Yeah. Yeah.
- 12:20Well, no, you post them now on your story.
- 12:23I want Malcolm to post. The story looks like it's Brail,
- 12:27I was gonna say. When did you start modifying
- 12:29that car? Like what, a year?
- 12:31Ish. Right as I got it, the first
- 12:33three things I did, I still have the Super shitty Instagram
- 12:37stitched post thing archived. It was tail lights.
- 12:42I did yellow vinyl on the fog lights.
- 12:45And I did. The Starter pack.
- 12:48And I did a clear side markers beer fucking took picture.
- 12:51I thought it was the coolest thing I posted on Instagram with
- 12:53the whole stitch thing. You got that car new?
- 12:56No. So that's another thing.
- 12:57Not a lot of people know, but that car was actually salvaged.
- 13:00Really. The car was totaled?
- 13:01Yeah, I think you told. That car was totaled.
- 13:02I got that car in, then we got in 20.
- 13:07Sorry, Ethan's in the background working on my car.
- 13:09Hey. Oh, you heard it.
- 13:10I don't want to hear the bullshit.
- 13:12Oh, somebody has to, Yeah. So I don't want to hear any
- 13:15bullshit. So so.
- 13:16Bear with the fucking noise. The audio was rough.
- 13:20I couldn't hear anything. Yeah, well.
- 13:21Now this is what you get. Yeah, you asked for it, but.
- 13:24Honestly, the background noise isn't that bad.
- 13:26I know you guys always say it and the things, but it's not
- 13:27that bad. It's not OK.
- 13:28Thank. You so much you hear like a
- 13:30little bit of something, but it's not that bad.
- 13:31It's it's way louder through here that it isn't.
- 13:33That's OK. It's probably because like the
- 13:34building. So much it's probably you're on
- 13:36the I feel like it's vibrating through the floor right now and
- 13:39shit. And I think you're just being
- 13:40self-conscious about it because you want to provide everyone the
- 13:42best experience that just quality podcasts.
- 13:47I don't know what that was, but. So.
- 13:50I think that that those little mods though, like, tell me that
- 13:53didn't make you feel. Like, Oh my God, because.
- 13:55The side marker you have to unbolt something like they're
- 13:58the ones in the bumper. Yeah, so they're on the side.
- 14:01They they like the way they're supposed to work is they're
- 14:04supposed to just like, pop in. But they they fall out, like
- 14:07literally, I'd go out and drive and within two days they'd be
- 14:10hanging off the car, just flopping and stuff.
- 14:11So did you look up on YouTube how to like, do this stuff?
- 14:14What year? Rough.
- 14:15So this was I got my license. So I'm 25.
- 14:18I got my license in November of 2014.
- 14:23I want to say I think 97. Yeah, that makes sense.
- 14:28They total. They total that car fast. 11,000
- 14:31miles, dude. Yeah, cuz actually it just came
- 14:33out, yeah. 11,000 miles. That was a brand new fucking
- 14:35car. How bad was the damage when you
- 14:37bought it? So the driver's side, no driver,
- 14:42passenger side, passenger side, quarter was kind of crunched in
- 14:46the current airbag went off the headlight.
- 14:50Was broken and I think a Fender needed to be replaced.
- 14:52Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
- 14:53Wait a minute. How did that total?
- 14:54No, no, no, no, no. Wait a minute.
- 14:55Wait a minute. Airbag.
- 14:56Went off. But wait, you and it's only like
- 15:0128. That's why usually like 90% of
- 14:58the time if an airbag goes off the total.
- 15:01Had a airbag in there. Yeah.
- 15:04I mean, I so you. Replace the air.
- 15:05The way it works with salvage cars is, well, if you buy a car
- 15:08with a rebuilt title, you have to, in Jersey at least, you have
- 15:10to go through. You have to buy parts, not OEM,
- 15:14but you have to buy them, have receipts and stuff, and you have
- 15:16to have an inspection afterwards.
- 15:17And once you have that inspection, then who?
- 15:19Did this process. No, this was through my dad's
- 15:21got a friend that owns a shop and what they do is they do
- 15:23auction cars, so they handled everything for us.
- 15:26Cool, straight. What kind of inspection is it?
- 15:29I don't. Know they probably look at like
- 15:30the chassis of the rigidity. I think they just look, oh, I
- 15:33think it's like pictures and they look over everything you.
- 15:36Yeah. OK, so not even I wasn't there
- 15:37doing anything that serious. That wasn't there, but so.
- 15:39All right, so my is. Is also.
- 15:42Wait, what? Yeah, a Wait, what?
- 15:46Why? Is that a secret?
- 15:48No one knows that. What the fuck?
- 15:49Yeah, title, right? Yeah, Yeah, yeah, dude.
- 15:52It was T boned in the side. That shit was T.
- 15:54Yeah. Oh my God, Carl.
- 15:57That thing's a fucking rolling total.
- 15:58For the stuff that we do, honestly, yeah, it's good as
- 16:01long as. The Why do you think I fucking
- 16:03don't do it? Don't give a shit about.
- 16:05It exactly and even like I when I got that car through auction,
- 16:09I think it came out to like 10 or 11 grand and then with
- 16:12repairs it was another like 5, maybe 6.
- 16:15So the car ended up being 1516 grand and but I feel like there
- 16:18wasn't that much shit. The cars then we're going for
- 16:21like 30 grand from the dealership, yeah.
- 16:22And you had a brand new looking car.
- 16:24Brand fucking new. Here's why I got it Because
- 16:27because he's cheap. It was cheapest shit and it was,
- 16:32that's me. It was clean like the chassis,
- 16:34like honestly, this is probably what happened.
- 16:36It got totaled out, they repaired it and then it just got
- 16:39sold to somebody else and the rest of the car paired it.
- 16:42It probably, yeah. I bought it and it was already
- 16:44done like and I feel like they repaired it and since they
- 16:48repaired it like it didn't get have time nearly as much to just
- 16:53get fucking rusty somewhere. Do you see anything from it?
- 16:56Yeah, he sees all of it. You got a point that.
- 16:59It was on the rack. It was on the rack and you saw
- 17:03that shit. You could see it.
- 17:05Oh my God. This is my room No.
- 17:07My room. No, he's about to find out
- 17:09today. No, he's not.
- 17:10Oh, he will. No, he's not.
- 17:11No, he's not. He's outside.
- 17:14No, sorry. So my roommate pointed that out,
- 17:16but that's probably Chris trying to get in.
- 17:14I'm just sorry. Yeah, you might have locked the.
- 17:20Door, my roommate told me. I'll go handle that, to look at
- 17:22that. But what's funny is, you know,
- 17:27David Bob doesn't care as much about it because I saw a video
- 17:32of you once. Where was that?
- 17:36It might have been ad vibes. Yes.
- 17:45The one that went off was the driver's one, actually, so was
- 17:47the opposite one. Were you fucking?
- 17:40That's why I asked if you put the airbag back, because I
- 17:43remember an airbag going off in a.
- 17:48So that one was put back in. But yeah, that one thought and
- 17:50it was dude, it was hilarious because I hit it and.
- 17:53I didn't realize that the airbag went off cuz I hit and I tried
- 17:56to stay in it. Like you see the wheels still
- 17:57spinning. I'm going dude, and when I pull
- 17:59out of it, I turn my head like this and it's not going
- 18:01anywhere. So I kind of pull my head back
- 18:03like this. There's a huge.
- 18:04Fucking airbag when the fuck you don't remember.
- 18:07This it was that vibes a couple years ago.
- 18:10Maybe last year it's. Such an embarrassing video cuz
- 18:12there's I knew about. I'm not following anyone.
- 18:14There's no one behind me and I still.
- 18:16Hit the I just think it's funny because I hit something.
- 18:18The airbag came out. I hit the.
- 18:19Jersey bag. The jersey bearings like boom.
- 18:22And then the airbag went off. The airbag blew.
- 18:24Up the. Bottom wheel, the back wheel and
- 18:26like but. What I thought because you
- 18:28pointed it out and even in the video you can see.
- 18:31David Bob is still fucking on it.
- 18:33Yeah, yeah, I stayed in it going.
- 18:35I'm saying, I thought I hit like the with the airbag blowing up.
- 18:38So yeah, when I hit it, I thought the I thought the
- 18:40quarter of the car, like the taillight area hit.
- 18:43So I just tried to stay in it. And then right as I came out of
- 18:45the turn, I I go to turn my head like this to try to look out and
- 18:48see my head's not going. I was saying I backed up like
- 18:50this. There's a huge fucking airbag
- 18:51writing like this, but you know what's crazy?
- 18:54Pulled off track. Cut the airbag out, unbolted
- 18:57whatever was left over. The only thing that broke was my
- 19:01lower control arm. Pulled it off.
- 19:03They have had a eerie. They have a garage.
- 19:06They have like a. Welders and like tools and shit
- 19:08like that. And James from Car Shop Crochet.
- 19:12Yeah, yeah. Dude, we went to the garage,
- 19:15welded it right back up, threw it, and I was.
- 19:16Driving Oh, what a sweetheart, that's what.
- 19:18Look at you. Thank you, James.
- 19:19Shout out James. That would have been like put it
- 19:21on the trailer. Now, yeah, put on the trailer.
- 19:23Put it on the trailer. Good.
- 19:24Good joke. You gotta drive that home, dude.
- 19:25I was fucking 8 hours away from home.
- 19:27Yeah. Oh my.
- 19:27Oh my God. Christ on a.
- 19:30Fuck. Yeah, dude, you were 8.
- 19:32Hours away and you're telling me you blew an air bag?
- 19:35Yeah, dude. Well, that wasn't that bad.
- 19:37The part that sucked was out, which is the lower control arm.
- 19:39But yeah, yeah, well did it right back up.
- 19:41Drove the entire next day and then drove all.
- 19:43Maybe it was like 7 hours home. Well, that's what they made that
- 19:46car for. Like, that's literally what they
- 19:48made it for in Jersey barriers. No, maybe.
- 19:52But like, blow it up, everybody. Well, that's what David Bott
- 19:54made. I was beating the shit out of
- 19:55this that they. Made it?
- 19:55No. That was the only time I back
- 19:57went off. Thankfully just a heads up
- 19:59before someone gets hit in the face by a Nat.
- 20:01We have a Nat problem right now so.
- 20:02You know what? Hold on.
- 20:03Wait. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
- 20:04Whoa, you got something? No, actually, that's so fucking
- 20:09Malcolm. Did you just?
- 20:10He just cued me in perfectly. He just cued me in perfectly.
- 20:14Yes. I was at the hunting store, the
- 20:14other. What did you get us?
- 20:16And I saw something when I was on the checkout line and I was
- 20:20like, wow, that sounds kind of fun to play with in the office
- 20:24and. You got a weapon.
- 20:25It was cheap. Is it assault?
- 20:26It was cheap, so I don't know if it's going to.
- 20:29But I got this little shooter thingy that shoots.
- 20:33No way bro. It looks like a spatula.
- 20:36How are you going to but Frankie complaints about these flies in
- 20:40here so fucking much and it says fly shooter and it's shaped like
- 20:44a something that would shoot something and like.
- 20:46Spiderman shooting a web or something, I don't know if it's
- 20:48gonna work. That's exactly what it is, but I
- 20:50just hope that it doesn't break anything in here because.
- 20:53No, gnats are so small. I don't think you're gonna.
- 20:54It's not. That's for like a flag.
- 20:56We. Think we, we.
- 20:57Think we What is that? How strong is that spring?
- 20:59Can you replace it with? Engine sitting in here so that I
- 21:02think they're being like, I don't know.
- 21:06By that engine. They like oil and shit.
- 21:08No they don't. Yeah, they must.
- 21:10Definitely those flies everything.
- 21:12No or not. They're like.
- 21:14They are different. I found out what did.
- 21:16Your research. Yes, that said fruit flies.
- 21:18And I think we have fruit flies. What kind?
- 21:21Of fruit You guys have any? I guess they like 5W30.
- 21:25It's so sweet. I don't know.
- 21:27Sweet smelling, that's. What I'm thinking, but Chris
- 21:30Carl wanted to tell you something about his car.
- 21:34Did you ever notice anything weird when you're under his car,
- 21:37working on it like it might have been T boned or something?
- 21:42He knows where it is, I think. Probably.
- 21:44That's just salvaged. Oh, so you already know that?
- 21:47Yeah, he already knew that, I might have drunkenly told Chris.
- 21:50He thought that. He thought that Carl didn't
- 21:51know. So he's like, I'm just not
- 21:52Chris. Oh, did you know?
- 21:54Yeah. So much.
- 21:58Oh, OK, so this is, guess what? It's still insured.
- 22:00My insurance is 50 bucks a month on that bitch.
- 22:03Yeah, it's it's cheaper because they're like, whatever.
- 22:07Oh wow, that's pretty awesome. Is it strong?
- 22:10Oh, we should replace it with a stronger spring if it's not
- 22:12strong enough. You guys just got me thinking
- 22:14about salvaged cars. Now they're.
- 22:17Not bad. You literally have.
- 22:18They're not bad in S14 waiting to get put together for Malcolm
- 22:21in the driveway. Why does everyone keep saying
- 22:23this from Malcolm? I don't know.
- 22:25They want to see Malcolm Drip. I got some orders.
- 22:28Oh, that thing sounds pretty dangerous.
- 22:30That does sound like it's going to break something.
- 22:33Sorry. Well, it sounds like you might
- 22:34have broken. I just got to figure out how to
- 22:36fucking do this. Do you remember I'm going to ask
- 22:43you a lot about because to those of you who are listening that
- 22:45don't know what David Bob is capable of, you're very good
- 22:49with cuz you went with them all for a little bit.
- 22:52Yeah, right. Which is like I'm using this as
- 22:56an intro because you made a body kit at 1:00.
- 22:58Yes. So are you still making body?
- 22:59Yes. OK stuff.
- 23:01So making body kits, I'm trying to how did you get into that?
- 23:04Was it just cuz there was no body kits?
- 23:05Dude, that's such a long fucking story.
- 23:07And such a shitty story too. Frankie knows a lot about those.
- 23:10What are you doing with? This close your eyes, Chris.
- 23:12Why are you doing it to Chris? That will not kill a fly.
- 23:16I don't think it will either, but we'll try it.
- 23:18We'll keep an eye out if I see what I'll tell you.
- 23:21Sorry. Yeah, no.
- 23:21So the I didn't know how close that was.
- 23:29All right, anyway. The Yeah, we'll do so short
- 23:34story or you can omit. Whatever it is, yeah, there's a
- 23:37lot of not for. There's a lot of parts of every
- 23:40story. Yeah, the body kit thing
- 23:43definitely came before working at Kemal's at Super Life.
- 23:47It started off with me not knowing anything and really
- 23:50wanting something kind of cool. Which is what Carl.
- 23:54Carl. Kind of late.
- 23:55I've heard. I know.
- 23:56So yeah. And I started literally knowing
- 23:59absolutely nothing. There's nothing on.
- 24:01I mean, there's little stuff online, but not enough to really
- 24:04make sense of it. I knew nothing about body work
- 24:06either. So it was.
- 24:07I don't have a garage either. So literally, it was like a
- 24:09year, maybe year and a half of me just sitting in my driveway
- 24:12just. Like an expanding foam bondo,
- 24:15plastic Weld, fiberglass, everything you could think of.
- 24:19Do that first, probably. What were the materials again?
- 24:22I'll send you a list now I have a million pictures too.
- 24:24I can show you guys too. I've been meaning to put
- 24:27together kind of like a little collective for yourself.
- 24:30So I've been wanting to make a video kind of.
- 24:32There's so many parts to everything from it's been, it's
- 24:35probably, yeah, no, it's probably been like 5.
- 24:39Ish years since like I initially started me even no longer than
- 24:42that cuz me and Kasha have been dating for almost six years now.
- 24:46So that probably started like 7 years ago.
- 24:49And yeah, it's been, it's been. That was.
- 24:53Not too fun. That was the reason I.
- 24:55It sucks so bad. That's all right.
- 24:57I can hear it in your voice. Not dumb, like I said, just not
- 25:00knowing anything and just putting.
- 25:01I mean it's a good way to learn cuz you do it all by hand, you
- 25:04kind of figure it out, but it just there's so many steps that
- 25:07could have been like bypassed. And like things I wouldn't have
- 25:10done that would have made it way quicker or if I had like kind of
- 25:13I don't see the connections I had now, but if I had more of
- 25:16the outreach to companies and things.
- 25:19And but I feel like you wouldn't have got that.
- 25:21You wouldn't have got to that step without.
- 25:24That's 100 percent, yeah. And I was about to say that.
- 25:26And the cool thing is all that work that I or we cuz gosh, that
- 25:31actually helped me a lot with it too.
- 25:32Funny. It's a lot of other stories too,
- 25:34but. The, the, the all the effort
- 25:37that went into and all the work that went into it gave me a way
- 25:39better understanding of how it all works.
- 25:41So when I ended up going to someone to do the first
- 25:43production thing, it's like, all right, dude, I know exactly how
- 25:44this works. I know exactly, Not exactly.
- 25:46But I know pretty much what you guys have to do.
- 25:48So there's no, like, bullshitting you.
- 25:49It's like, oh, we have to do this thing.
- 25:50It's gonna cost this much. Like, no, I know you guys have
- 25:52to do this, this, this and that. This is how it goes.
- 25:54Like, whatever, you know? So yeah, give me a little bit
- 25:56of, like, a better idea. But yeah, it was, it was fun.
- 25:58But it also sucked, dude, that first from Bumper, I had no
- 26:01joke. We had like. 3035 pounds, no
- 26:04joke is so heavy. So much bondo and.
- 26:07Whatever and everything is terrible, but you drove it
- 26:10around like that. I did.
- 26:11And look at it. OK, it.
- 26:14Was. It was.
- 26:16It was a little ratty. I remember it, yeah, looking at
- 26:19because when you have foam, I'm trying to remember what it.
- 26:22Looks like everything once it was.
- 26:23So I put as much together as I could.
- 26:26And I had a friend, Internet friend that lived down in
- 26:29Virginia Beach. His name was Steve.
- 26:30Oh, he's down in uh. I see them.
- 26:32These are wild boys and fucking. Yeah, now he does.
- 26:36He's down in, he's down in Florida now.
- 26:38He makes fiberglass parts for what does he make them for?
- 26:44I don't know, some big body Lexuses.
- 26:46I think he makes like, random stuff.
- 26:47He does a bunch of, like, acrylic roof wings and stuff for
- 26:49a bunch of cars, whatever. So we were Internet friends and
- 26:52he offered to paint my car. So I did as much as a kid as I
- 26:54could. And I told him, like, listen,
- 26:55dude, I suck at this stuff. Could you take it in, clean it
- 26:58up as much as you could and then paint it?
- 27:00So he. Painted the kit.
- 27:02Resprayed most of the car too, because he did like a little bit
- 27:05of like blue flake on it, and that was the first time it was
- 27:08ever fully together in one piece.
- 27:10And that was for for H2O of 20, what was that color that light
- 27:19was? It was a World Rally blue.
- 27:21Just what he did was he painted blue Flake on top of all that.
- 27:24Was that the year that cuz why do I remember?
- 27:27Cuz I followed that for why followed that whole saga for a
- 27:31little while, because it had me telling Chris like.
- 27:34Yo, I'm about to fucking sell all my shit.
- 27:36Buy a BRZ, buy a BRZ or an FRS just so I could run this kit.
- 27:39I need this kit. Yeah, because I love it.
- 27:41Thank you. Appreciate it because it was
- 27:42cool because the style is exactly what I wanted.
- 27:44I was like, I don't really like any of the shit that they have
- 27:47for this car. I want it to look more the way
- 27:49that I wanted. To look old.
- 27:51Back then it was all rocket. I just want it.
- 27:53Yes for the huge rock. I was so tired of that.
- 27:56You probably you that look what it made you do.
- 27:58Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like every place you went, every
- 28:01car had a Rocket Bunny fucking kid on it.
- 28:03Yeah. And they all had cut quarter
- 28:05panels for it. They were cutting those cars up
- 28:07right when they came in. Oh yeah.
- 28:09I was like, Oh my God, what are you doing?
- 28:12When it came out, though, I was pretty enamored with that first
- 28:14Rocket Bunny kit. I thought it looked it was real.
- 28:16Well, I thought it. Looked night runner's.
- 28:17Car looked good. All the other ones didn't look
- 28:19good to me. Yes, that's the one, Chase.
- 28:21Based I had a pretty cool car too.
- 28:23In the beginning I had like a like the the engine Bay was
- 28:25tucked towards literally like just the motor and nothing else
- 28:27they had. It was like a like they were
- 28:28like greenish kind of color. That thing was super sick and
- 28:30they also had, I don't know if those speed hunters that had
- 28:33this. It was like a contest or
- 28:37something. There's three companies that
- 28:39made the Fr S's and VR Z's where they built them to their spec or
- 28:41whatever. I forget what it was.
- 28:43Was probably around like 2013. Fourteen right in the beginning.
- 28:45But yeah, there was one of the cars.
- 28:46There was like two others too. They're fucking.
- 28:48Sick. Yeah.
- 28:49I remember seeing your car. Well, I seen your car before
- 28:52this, but I remember that one. Meet where I I think it was at
- 28:55Rowdy's Garage or. When he was still in Clifton,
- 28:58yeah. Yeah, yeah.
- 29:00And that was the one where I think I talked to you.
- 29:02So funny enough, I think at that meet I only had one side skirt
- 29:04on because the other one broker fell.
- 29:06Yeah, but I was like, damn, probably parked.
- 29:08Like this? Yeah, I mean, I was thinking the
- 29:10same thing Carl was thinking. I was like, OK, so these cars
- 29:12can look cool. Yeah, it the first iteration of
- 29:16it didn't look good. The first time I did the front
- 29:18bumper. All I did was I just, I molded
- 29:21the entire I don't know if you guys know, but on the B or Z
- 29:23front bumpers, they have like this mustache thing.
- 29:25Yeah, So what I did was I molded.
- 29:26I molded the entire thing down. So like the gorilla at the
- 29:29bottom was maybe like 4 inches and like the top flat section of
- 29:32the bumper was probably like a foot long.
- 29:34And then it went in to look fucking tear.
- 29:36I went to low style heroes like that actually.
- 29:38Really. It looked awful.
- 29:39I mean people like I feel. Like it probably looked fine,
- 29:41but to you. No, if I showed you pictures,
- 29:44I'm trying to think it was like, what did that look?
- 29:46Like, yeah, so. The the front bumper, the way I
- 29:49did it was I took a lip and molded the lip on and then did
- 29:52the body work to kind of have that like.
- 29:54Flared out. Not like a just like that.
- 29:57Flared out kind of. Yeah, I know what I'm going for.
- 29:59And then I At first I just molded in that front mustache
- 30:03section. But then after I came back and I
- 30:05looked at pictures, I was. Like, so you just ended up
- 30:07taking that whole thing out, right?
- 30:08So I cut half of it and then I glassed a section around it.
- 30:13So it has like actual like depth to it.
- 30:14It's not like it just ends and at the end of it like it
- 30:16actually has like a thing that goes in, you know what I mean?
- 30:18Yeah. Then the bottom too.
- 30:19The bottom goes down now and has like a flat section to.
- 30:21My pictures I'd be able to show you, but.
- 30:23I remember the thing that annoyed me the most was he
- 30:25didn't have anything for the rear.
- 30:26Yeah, for the longest time I had and.
- 30:28I was like Dave, that's just so hard though, because the rear of
- 30:31the Fr herb, that chassis. Yes, CS6 chassis is like so
- 30:36there's not a lot of real estate.
- 30:38There ain't much better standard bumper.
- 30:41Standard bumper is like this exactly.
- 30:43Yeah, I was trying to look at the RX8.
- 30:47BN kits to try to get an idea. You're also not great.
- 30:49Yeah, but it's the same kind of like round thing.
- 30:51But I couldn't. That's why it took me so long to
- 30:53do it cuz I just did it from bumper.
- 30:55I already had like a basic idea. I worked off the the stock
- 30:57bumper and just out of the lip and and worked out that
- 31:00intersection and then side skirts.
- 31:02Funny enough we're actually S13 side skirts.
- 31:04Oh yeah, yeah. So I took those and I knew that.
- 31:06I feel like I remember seeing a picture.
- 31:08I took those, but they're completely different.
- 31:10I mean, starting from what it was, there's maybe like. 25% of
- 31:14an S13 sides we're left in it, probably just that little bottom
- 31:17where it's literally like, yeah. Straight, yeah, because it had
- 31:20to get extended by like 6 or 7 inches.
- 31:22And then also the way that the Fender goes in and the quarter
- 31:25panel goes in on S chassis. The door they.
- 31:27Yeah, they like oh that's another thing.
- 31:29So like the quarter and the the fenders on S chassis they curve
- 31:32in meanwhile on this it's like flat section side to make those
- 31:35and then also the door. What I didn't realize at first
- 31:37is on those cars the doors like tapered it goes down.
- 31:42That side script, when you're looking at it, it looks like
- 31:43it's like a like a flat side script but the the door tapers
- 31:46up so on both sides they both kind of go like this.
- 31:48The bottom is obviously flat, but if you like actually
- 31:50measured it, the inside of the the door by where the Fender is
- 31:54is like this and then going back it like opens up to this.
- 31:56You know what I mean? And the door is round in the
- 31:57back corner, you know? Yeah, pointed that out.
- 31:59Yeah, yeah, well, I was just like, yeah, he's got that rant
- 32:01looking round doors. I was like, what?
- 32:04And then he pointed out he's like only like Miata's.
- 32:06And it would be like, so innocent.
- 32:07Probably. Do like, yeah.
- 32:09That door over there was like, yeah, I'm like pointing out
- 32:12like, oh damn. Yeah, like, I love.
- 32:13I love those round doors. It's like what thought.
- 32:16Yeah, but now I know it's. Window frames, though?
- 32:18Yeah, the window frames. That's why he likes them.
- 32:20He likes that car. Frankie likes that car.
- 32:22FRS does, but doesn't. I like them.
- 32:23Yeah. No, no, I do.
- 32:24I I it's a good. You haven't driven my car yet,
- 32:27right? No, but I'm down so but his is.
- 32:29Fast that it's turboed his Fast drive it.
- 32:31Yeah. I'm.
- 32:31Look fast as shit at Summit. Dude, it's it's I could.
- 32:35I'm running 225 S in the back. You could definitely bump up a
- 32:37little bit and I was running that.
- 32:39Event that I drove was the first time I ever drift that car when
- 32:43I was turbo. First turbo car I ever actually
- 32:44drove to Ben Vibe's event. I heard you guys special stage.
- 32:48I heard you guys were doing great that day, right?
- 32:50So when Nico was on, Nico didn't explain this, but Nico came into
- 32:54that event with a brand new car that he only drove in Japan in
- 32:57the rain. Yeah, Juan was driving with us,
- 32:59which was his maybe third time driving with us.
- 33:03Seb was driving for the first time in like a year, and it was
- 33:06my first time driving a turbo car that I didn't drive in.
- 33:08I feel like it's Seb's first time driving every time he
- 33:10drives that car, yeah. Because he disappears for
- 33:12months. Yeah, he just flies back.
- 33:15Yeah, that's all. He'll text me the day before the
- 33:16event. Yo, can you do an alignment?
- 33:18Literally. Like what?
- 33:19And then he'll just come here, do that, fly back to California.
- 33:23But, yeah, and you guys. Killed it, I heard.
- 33:25Yeah, it was. We're not.
- 33:27There's a lot of room. I mean, for growth, there's
- 33:30still a lot. To to all just come together,
- 33:33they're. We made it work, yes.
- 33:34It's crazy. It was fucking wild and it was
- 33:36crazy cuz we ran Seb in the back.
- 33:38This is another thing that Nico also didn't explain.
- 33:40But we ran Seb in the back and we did that for a while.
- 33:43And that's been the thing for a while, cuz just.
- 33:45Just for we don't want Seb to get in his head and just we just
- 33:47wanted him to be comfortable and just make sure whatever.
- 33:49Yeah. And a couple people mentioned
- 33:51like throw seven in the front, throw seven in the front and
- 33:54midway through comp we decided to throw Seb in the front.
- 33:57And yeah, just perfect time to. Do that, dude.
- 33:58It was not only the craziest slap, but the first time that he
- 34:02was going and he was at the front, we left.
- 34:06Grid and you know it was like a long straight to like like not a
- 34:09hairpin but like a title whatever.
- 34:10Yeah, so we floor it and we get maybe 30 feet and Seb slams on
- 34:15the brake and I don't know if anybody saw, but we literally
- 34:17all almost like rear-ended each other because said like braked.
- 34:20There was a fox that ran across right in front of us.
- 34:23Out of all the laps that everyone did that day.
- 34:25It just so happened that when we threw Seb out in front, the fox
- 34:28ran across. We almost crashed into each.
- 34:29Other like, not the fox. Yeah, everybody got back on it.
- 34:32We flew down, had like the best lap and.
- 34:34Like so you kept going after. That we kept going after, I
- 34:36don't know how. We gritted after that and been
- 34:38like how fucking dog was on the. Tree.
- 34:41Yeah, no, we pulled off and we were all like, that was fucking
- 34:43insane. Like lucky the fox.
- 34:46Yeah, dude literally had it was. And we kept running seven the
- 34:49front for the rest of the cop and it was just.
- 34:50Beautiful everything just like clicked into play.
- 34:52Everything worked out. That lineup should be called the
- 34:53Fox from now on. Yeah, we were the Fox.
- 34:55We were making Fox. We were.
- 34:56Making jokes saying that we should change the auto real
- 34:59drink hawk to a fox or something like that.
- 35:01True incorporated delivery. You can have a special.
- 35:03Edition, I mean. Yeah.
- 35:06Yeah, that was it was crazy pending.
- 35:07It was such a weird like it just like I said, it's everything
- 35:11clicked like we put 7 front and we just went for it and it all
- 35:14worked out. And that also happened like
- 35:15right before it too. It was just crazy.
- 35:17Here's here's what I when I see Seb, cuz there's only like an is
- 35:22if you have it, all of them na they all kind of look the same
- 35:26when they're drifting. Like it's all also vertex.
- 35:29Everyone runs that vertex. That too.
- 35:30But but Seb's line is always pretty smooth.
- 35:33So I'm like that makes sense that he's in the front.
- 35:36I feel like yeah before you're doing it wrong you can expect
- 35:38where he's gonna go. We.
- 35:39Were doing it wrong because we had seven in the back and his
- 35:41car is not. It's like fast, but not as fast.
- 35:45And as we're doing, it would be hard for him to keep up.
- 35:47So we'd have to keep cutting a little bit.
- 35:48And it ended up with him either having to go off track a little
- 35:51bit or like trying to dive in too much and having to spin out
- 35:53to make sure he doesn't hit anybody.
- 35:54So it just wasn't the right spot.
- 35:55But that lineup we had at the end was tits.
- 35:57So then yeah, I guess that basically allowed him to run the
- 36:01track so that it looks best for the slowest.
- 36:03Car he set up, he set up the line exactly where it had to be.
- 36:06Just but why every car? Really.
- 36:08That. Fast He's car is pretty fast.
- 36:10We drew. I didn't know that it was a ka
- 36:12and I got in it. I also just met Juan like maybe
- 36:1510 minutes before then. And I had already down a couple
- 36:17twisted teas with Nico, or that I got from Nico that I traded
- 36:20him a water for and then fair trade and then I got in Juan's
- 36:24car. The funniest dude ever, dude,
- 36:27he's that's a super. Is that the?
- 36:28Super low car, yeah, yeah. Relax, amigo.
- 36:30Yeah. He's the one that literally did
- 36:32like a body drop on the entire car.
- 36:33I was cracking up, dude. My ass felt like I was on the
- 36:36ground, dude. He was so scalped.
- 36:38He has a blog that he actually updates a lot where he.
- 36:42Shows you. Everything like pictures and
- 36:44explains everything he did. He's also someone you guys
- 36:47should have on. I would fucking love.
- 36:48He has to explain all the shit he did to that car, cuz that car
- 36:51is fucking crazy. Yo Frankie.
- 36:52It's literally like where does he live?
- 36:54Raised trans tunnel and. Shin, I wanna say please don't
- 36:59say like Minnesota. No, no, no.
- 37:00He's obviously on the East Coast.
- 37:01He's like he's by DC somewhere, okay.
- 37:04So he's like probably 3 ish hours from here.
- 37:05He's kind of far, but. We're going to DC.
- 37:10I wanna do they've. Been talking about moving kind
- 37:12of not up here but up into the PA area.
- 37:14So I wanna do every time I go to Summit, I want to drift there
- 37:18because it's such a facility. Dude, that was the first time I
- 37:20ever drove that truck. I didn't want to do 100 days of
- 37:22drift over there because they run the dwarf for five trucks,
- 37:25dude. That's what Darrell did last
- 37:27year and I was like all. At once I was living.
- 37:29I was, you know, when you're at an event, you're just so happy.
- 37:32You want to be happy for your boy.
- 37:34But I'm there and I'm like. Fuck.
- 37:37Fucking drive right now. And that's why Frankie doesn't
- 37:40want to come with me. To drift, he should have let you
- 37:42take his car for a route. That shit had a fixed seat.
- 37:46And Darryl is a foot and a half taller than me.
- 37:49He had me move it once I had to drive it from.
- 37:51Because another thing I like is that cars that you normally
- 37:55don't drive on the road kind of have to navigate through this
- 37:58little traffic system they got within Summit.
- 38:01It almost feels like they're St. driving a car.
- 38:03And I was in Darryl's car and I was like, this is kind of weird.
- 38:05Like we've never driven this thing on the road and we stop at
- 38:08a stop sign and I'm like, like he stopped at a stop sign, like.
- 38:12So he didn't drive that car, but I had to drive it from One Track
- 38:15Washington to Maine, which is the the bridge thing.
- 38:20I think that's called Shenandoah circuit or whatever.
- 38:22I don't, I don't know. But that part and I had to drive
- 38:26it like this, like I had to grab the fucking wheel.
- 38:29And pull yourself up, push the clutch like this and then oh
- 38:33God, it was so scary. He has the SC right had.
- 38:34And also that car is. Yeah, Can we?
- 38:39Can we talk about this or we can't talk about this?
- 38:41Daryl's doing some moves or something and he's sorry.
- 38:45I don't want to jinx it, OK? Because that's my luck.
- 38:48Wait till it happens. But he he sold the car and I was
- 38:50like, what the that was painful for us because that car was at
- 38:53my house for a little while and like.
- 38:56Painful. You don't know painful, dude.
- 38:57We came back from final bout and fucking everyone sold their cars
- 39:00and seven to the West Coast, dude.
- 39:02Oh God, it was the shit. I know how you feel.
- 39:05I know. How you feel?
- 39:06You kind of. Get it?
- 39:07I get that I was terrible. You guys breaking up?
- 39:08Everyone just upped and left. But no, Yeah, Daryl got got out
- 39:10of that sea. Bigger, better things.
- 39:13Best of luck to him and his little journey that he's going
- 39:16to have to, he's going to have to like you're letting him go
- 39:19and now it's like a. He's off the quest.
- 39:22Huh. Are you guys breaking up?
- 39:23What? No, that's what the Blood
- 39:25Brothers. Okay, we took the oath.
- 39:27You did the ceremony, yeah. And the fire, Okay.
- 39:30Yeah, with the knife, yeah, yeah.
- 39:34How does that work? I heard like after you do that,
- 39:36you guys feel the same things all the time.
- 39:38Yeah dude, his ears are probably ringing, right?
- 39:40Now is that a thing? Yeah, yeah.
- 39:41You've never heard that before? No.
- 39:43Yeah. You're talking about, like, when
- 39:44you like, like, change. Yeah, he knows they did it.
- 39:46Dude, I remember my like, me and my cousin.
- 39:48No, no. We're going to Why are you going
- 39:51to veer off into this story? We're going to Let's become
- 39:54blood. We did the whole thing.
- 39:57I'm like, we have the same blood.
- 40:00We did later. Darryl will never do that.
- 40:01I swear to God, dude, we were so young.
- 40:05No, I'm dead ass. We did like a blood pass.
- 40:07You guys actually did it. I think so.
- 40:08Now, like, not like a dead ass serious where we, like, cut our
- 40:11hand open, but like we did something.
- 40:13And I was like, after I got older, I was like, what the
- 40:16fuck? Like I was telling the story to
- 40:18someone. I was like, fuck, we're
- 40:19literally, we're literally related.
- 40:22We have the same blood, yeah. But you're touching blood.
- 40:24I was fucking around. Don't do that.
- 40:26That's like an energy thing. So I mean you guys are different
- 40:28energies, geez. I mean I don't know if anything
- 40:30happened, but like I I think you already had the same blood, it
- 40:34doesn't count. But So what are you talking
- 40:38about with the whole, like, the blood thing?
- 40:41Yeah. I've I've heard that when you do
- 40:42that, you guys like feel the same thing or like Carl comes
- 40:45like. You'll be you'll be going
- 40:46through stuff and someone else do me oh.
- 40:48Come on, do me. Up now I got my Milwaukee.
- 40:51Now I'm just kidding. You need like a can.
- 40:52You want to really be part of faction?
- 40:53Yeah, you want to really be said.
- 40:55You were part of this. Get your ass over here.
- 40:58Jesus, I don't know. I think we should do that one
- 41:01day. Try it out.
- 41:03No. Maybe we could just go skydiving
- 41:05or something normal. If I finish my car this year,
- 41:08you become a blood brother with me.
- 41:09Maybe, he said. Maybe.
- 41:13Mainly cuz like I don't think any blood is gonna fly out of
- 41:16these. Like, I feel like you when you
- 41:17cut up your hands a bunch, it's like harder to cut.
- 41:19Yeah, if my knuckles are so gross, they, like feel gross.
- 41:23They look good. I got sneeze.
- 41:29I sneezed on the ground. Get the fuck outta here,
- 41:32Malcolm. Went No, we're sneeze brothers.
- 41:36But you could do. You could do a hot wax too, if
- 41:38you want to pussy out. That's something that's for a
- 41:41different situation. No, no, no.
- 41:43You can still do it like that. What?
- 41:45Like I swear to God sounds. Like some sexual shit?
- 41:48Yeah. No, no, no.
- 41:50Erotic it's like some some watered.
- 41:52Down version candles at his apartment freaking me out.
- 41:55Now it's just this guy's person gets you excited.
- 41:58Set in the mood. Right as you walk in, you know
- 42:00what's going on. I know those are for me.
- 42:02I love candles. I'm not gonna lie.
- 42:06You basic bitch. Knock em those.
- 42:07I love candles. Yeah.
- 42:10I gotta gotta keep the place falling.
- 42:11Wait, wait, wait, wait. Dave, Dave, Dave, Dave.
- 42:12You also made something else, because I feel like this.
- 42:15Something else. You made a lot of shit.
- 42:18But this? This one I thought was extremely
- 42:20clever and I want to know if you thought of it yourself.
- 42:23The mirror plate, Yes. So you thought of that it?
- 42:28Started off where? I looked at my door.
- 42:31Funny enough, actually, you know why that hat?
- 42:32Well. Frankie's obviously a big part
- 42:34of what happened, but the reason the initial idea actually
- 42:37started cuz of Johnny, Johnny, Monica, yeah, what do?
- 42:41So I I had the idea of taking gandoors and like, I was like,
- 42:45oh, we have this big empty space.
- 42:46Wait. Here, Johnny.
- 42:47Our Johnny. Yeah exactly.
- 42:48Or the Johnny. Yeah.
- 42:50Yeah. Like 8 years ago or whenever.
- 42:51The. The first one he was like, this
- 42:53shit would look good with. So I Oh my God, I.
- 42:55Hear his voice. I had yo-yo.
- 42:57This shit would go. Ganda Doors, dude, that's pretty
- 43:01good. I fucking love Johnny bro, But.
- 43:04He had cuz I think I met him at the track at E Town cuz I don't
- 43:08know how else I would have met him, but I remember he had
- 43:10gander was on his car and I was like, I'd be sick to throw
- 43:12ganders on the car. And I was looking at how they
- 43:14fit on the car and there's a big fucking triangle.
- 43:16And I looked at my car, I was like, it's a big fucking
- 43:18triangle. So I ended up pulling up to his
- 43:21house once and he pulled it off his car and I lined it up on my
- 43:23car. I was like, wow, this fucking
- 43:25fits cuz didn't you? You made those before we made
- 43:27the legit. Yeah, I had one on my card.
- 43:30Yeah, okay. Yeah, that's what I thought.
- 43:32That is so fucking. I think that that's.
- 43:35It's so cuz. Now I can't even imagine it.
- 43:38When I see the stock one, I'm like.
- 43:40Yeah, yeah, cuz those are door mounted, so.
- 43:43Yeah, it looks weird that way. Yeah, I gotta be honest, the
- 43:47first guy that actually did it is.
- 43:52Matt from Matt from Matt Yeah cuz I remember I we're gonna do
- 43:55a podcast with him. Yeah.
- 43:57Yeah. And it would be like, hey, my
- 43:58boy David, Bob wants to talk. No, but no.
- 44:03He actually did it first cuz we I one of the times I drove out
- 44:07the final bout, it was when he was driving.
- 44:09He had the FRS and we were in the parking lot bullshitting and
- 44:13we were talking about it and I noticed he had him on his car.
- 44:15I was like shit, I was literally just trying to do that.
- 44:17So we kind of saw the ideas went back and forth, so.
- 44:20His had cuz he sold them for a little bit too.
- 44:23I don't know if you remember. Yeah, I do remember.
- 44:24And after he sold his car, he dropped it.
- 44:25And that's when I started selling mine.
- 44:27Like actually bigger. Yeah.
- 44:29But yeah, so he was the first one to actually have them on his
- 44:34car. I was working on us trying to
- 44:36get it done, but I was still figuring it out then.
- 44:38But I'm trying to like perfect it.
- 44:39Yeah, cuz that's when we had the clippings made.
- 44:42Yeah, cuz before it was just a plate that had vinyl over it.
- 44:45We actually made the clip. We had Dan make the clip.
- 44:47My thing was like, because that was the problem.
- 44:49It was like, oh, so now you're relying on someone to have to
- 44:53Weld these shut? Kind of sucks it.
- 44:55Would be cool if you could make it something that you could just
- 44:58like buy and bolt in. Yeah, yeah, you know, which I
- 45:00mean, I wouldn't do, but someone who doesn't want to repaint
- 45:04their doors. Yeah, when I had mine, when I
- 45:07put mine in, that was before we had the the kit going and the
- 45:11guy that painted the car, he he actually welded it shut and had
- 45:13to do the body work and close it all up.
- 45:15I had to repaint the entire door like it's it's irreversible.
- 45:18Yeah, it's just it's a lot of work for like, oh, I wanna put
- 45:20Gamma doors on my cars. OK, well.
- 45:22Yeah. It's like fully committed
- 45:23there's. What about the visibility?
- 45:25Terrible, I'm asking. About so I'm asking the real
- 45:27questions. Not only that, I also have a
- 45:29roll cage in my car. So now you can't see anything.
- 45:31I can't see out of the sides and when you look up in the mirror
- 45:33there's a fat. Bar if you had a Thrasher seat
- 45:35as well, you would also not be able to see anything.
- 45:38Just saying, may want to put an order in for that, so just
- 45:40complete the package. Complete the package completely
- 45:43no. Visibility.
- 45:44No, it's not terrible. So for the the drivers.
- 45:46Side one, I have to like lean forward to be able to cuz it's
- 45:50left hand and drive it's yeah. So I have to get up and look
- 45:54out. But I have a Broadway or mirror
- 45:57in my car so I have it like angled down.
- 45:58It's like the convex mirrors. Yeah you see a lot more.
- 46:02So blind spot mirror. Yeah.
- 46:03So I have it angled down where like just the top left of the
- 46:06mirror I could see backwards and then the bottom of it goes out
- 46:09the door and like the side little.
- 46:11Quarter glass thing. So that's enough.
- 46:14Someone makes glass replacements for those, right?
- 46:17Someone makes like convex glass. Replacements, yeah, yeah.
- 46:20That you could actually put on the gander was yeah, which kind
- 46:22of helped a little bit too I. Would love.
- 46:25Yeah, I'm really. That's awesome.
- 46:26If you guys are interested in that.
- 46:28We have those. Do we stuff?
- 46:29Yeah, we have them on the website.
- 46:30Those on the fashion website too, so if you want.
- 46:33To go if you want to ruin the visibility of your vehicle but
- 46:35also make it look cooler, which is more important.
- 46:38You could run other mirrors. Oh, what?
- 46:39That's the cool thing about those.
- 46:41Yeah, I didn't. Think about literally all it is.
- 46:43It's a plate that just goes in to replace the glass.
- 46:46It's like a DIY type situation. You could buy any mirrors for
- 46:49any trash so you can make them. Eat 36 mirror M3 mirrors.
- 46:53Yeah, RX7 mirrors. Literally anything like a
- 46:55mirrors. I know craft square mirrors,
- 46:57those race mirrors. So crafts, they make the craft
- 47:00square mirrors for our cars. Where they mount, they do, Yeah.
- 47:02Oh, they like made panels. Oh no.
- 47:04They mount on the door, yeah. Or craft square or a AARP.
- 47:07Yeah, you're right. Whatever it is.
- 47:08So they do. So they made something that,
- 47:10well, that's a good idea too. Wait, he could mount anything.
- 47:14What's his name? The other guy from Bayside,
- 47:16Kevin. The other one that had the FRS?
- 47:18He had some cool Honda mirrors, like spoon mirrors or something.
- 47:23Those looked sick too. You could just do a mirror
- 47:24delete. Someone actually funny enough
- 47:27someone hit me up cuz they wanted to just buy the the door
- 47:31delete and things cuz they were just gonna run the glass with no
- 47:34mirrors. All right, dude.
- 47:34Sure. I got.
- 47:36You damn. Yeah.
- 47:37Before I forget this, do you remember A the Drift team from?
- 47:43I just remember them being at final bout and I'm talking like
- 47:45final bout 3 maybe with three Frs's or Brz's and they were
- 47:52like very like. Yes, they're all white.
- 47:56Yeah, but not all white. I know one of them was white
- 47:58with, like, carbon fenders. Yeah, maybe I'm.
- 48:01Trying to think of I don't know what the name of the dude.
- 48:02I feel like they came and went so fast.
- 48:04They competed at special stage. I don't think they drove final
- 48:08bout. I forget the name of the team.
- 48:10Maybe it was a special. I don't know if they all sold
- 48:12their cars or what they're doing now, but it was a long fucking
- 48:15time ago. It was a special stage, though.
- 48:16Though probably it was. It was like one of the first
- 48:18final. It wasn't regular Final bet, I'm
- 48:21pretty sure. Do they have special stage in
- 48:23Wisconsin? Yeah.
- 48:24So then yeah, it was central. Yeah, dude, I saw those cars.
- 48:28I was like, those were the cars originally that I was like,
- 48:31damn, I want to get one of these one day.
- 48:33Yeah, I want us. I don't want to fuck it up.
- 48:34I feel bad cuz I remember like following those guys.
- 48:36I still follow. I don't remember what the cars I
- 48:38might follow. Them too.
- 48:39I'm pretty sure they're all white.
- 48:40Dude, I gotta. Find there's another 8-6 team
- 48:42and yeah, you know the one kid, which I think is funny, not the
- 48:46one that's. It's Kevin Quinn and Yatsek.
- 48:48Kevin is the one that I'm friends with on Facebook.
- 48:51I have no idea how we became friends on Facebook.
- 48:53Those cars look good too. Kevin's the one that came over
- 48:55here OK for. With the white car, he bought a
- 48:58kit. And drove all the way from.
- 49:00Chicago came here, We mounted the kit on his car here, took
- 49:04some pictures, and then next day they went to E Town.
- 49:08His buddy drove that day and then they drove all the way
- 49:10back. He literally brought like a
- 49:11trailer with him. He put the kid on the back of
- 49:12the trailer. Yeah, dude, What crazy.
- 49:14His body kits are like crack. Like people will come all the
- 49:16way from across the country. No, it really that really.
- 49:20He's he's also he's also a homey he's love that kid I've I when I
- 49:24drove when auto real dream drove final bout for the first time
- 49:28in. 2021 two years ago I drove out to drive a real bash.
- 49:35I drove real bash and left my car at his shop, flew back home
- 49:38and then came back with the rest of the guys.
- 49:40Got my car in the drove final belt.
- 49:41Yeah, I think I remember that, you know?
- 49:42He's he's the home. He's the nicest dude ever loved
- 49:44that kid. I don't know how he became
- 49:46Facebook friends, but I literally been watching since he
- 49:49picked up that kit. To like now because the car
- 49:52looks fucking amazing now. Tried to sell it like 8
- 49:54different times. I know when I'm.
- 49:56So glad it has. Because it's so.
- 49:58I'm so glad it hasn't. But at the same time, if you
- 50:00need to sell it, I'm just, I remember that car being pretty
- 50:02clean. So nice it's.
- 50:04So I don't know how those guys do it out there, but they keep
- 50:07their car. So yeah, crazy.
- 50:08I don't know if it's the roads out there.
- 50:10They put it in their living room and just live with.
- 50:11I don't know what it. Is either.
- 50:13It's every single car out there, dude.
- 50:14It's insane. That entire team.
- 50:16Same thing with Quinn, the kid that has the yellow car now.
- 50:17Oh my God, I think it every. Is that a TRD kit?
- 50:21It's some no, it's not TRD. It's some Barris.
- 50:25No, no, no. It's some crazy shit from Japan
- 50:27that you can't even. Get to regardless.
- 50:28I like it because it has a swan. It has a swan neck now and a
- 50:31swan neck on that chassis just like completes that it looks.
- 50:36Yeah, there was this. I have this sticker that I stole
- 50:38from here, but like, there's a it looks like a race car.
- 50:41Yeah, big fan of when a race car drifts.
- 50:44Yeah, Quinn's got always the coolest parts on his car.
- 50:46I don't know how he gets half the show he used to work with
- 50:48the TF works for a while, so he has all the ins and outs for
- 50:51everything. So he has the coolest shit.
- 50:52Always. It's the rarest, coolest shit.
- 50:54Another product we should probably bring up is the Diff
- 50:57Saver. Yes, so funny enough how that.
- 51:00Yeah, we do. That product came about was.
- 51:02Let me guess, you you ran into this problem yourself?
- 51:05Yeah. No, Literally.
- 51:07Yes. Lucky.
- 51:07Yes. No, I I scraped through a dip.
- 51:10My car used to be so much lower before and I, like, legitimately
- 51:13scraped through a diff and I went to guys, no Clinton Rd. in.
- 51:17Yeah. Oh yeah.
- 51:18West Milford Yeah, Yeah. So I remember I went over there
- 51:21on like a Saturday or a Sunday and I wanted to go just to just
- 51:24go drive, just enjoy the car. And the diff was scraped through
- 51:28enough where diff fluid was leaking out a little bit.
- 51:30And I went and I spent like 2 hours there, like hard ass
- 51:33driving. And right as I was leaving, my
- 51:35diff started clunking so bad. Oh wow.
- 51:38From West Milford back to here. It took me I think 3 hours to
- 51:43drive cuz I was driving in the shoulder of every single Rd.
- 51:46I was like, my God, you actually drove?
- 51:48It home though, Yeah. I had the way the road I.
- 51:51Wasn't paying for a tow truck. That was before Anthony was.
- 51:53Not only not only would someone not be able to get my car on a
- 51:55tow truck, I'd pay like fucking $300.00.
- 51:57So yeah, it took me like 3 hours.
- 51:58I was going 50 miles an hour the whole time.
- 52:00It should clunk, clunk, clunk, clunk.
- 52:01It was terrible. That's a good story.
- 52:03We should put that story in like the, what do you call it,
- 52:06promotion material. Dude, like I said, I have so
- 52:08many. Like I said, I want to make.
- 52:09I have so many. Oh, for that, for the diff
- 52:11saver. Oh yeah, one.
- 52:12Minute I took home for three hours.
- 52:14Yeah, no, literally. There's a bunch of really cool
- 52:16videos. I have saved two of people
- 52:17driving like throwing sparks and shit like that was a pretty cool
- 52:20byproduct of that. Yeah, I have like so much shit.
- 52:23It just. I'm terrible.
- 52:24Is that really it? Will it will do that?
- 52:26Yeah. Oh yeah, because you know that
- 52:27also fits is 300. For those of you didn't know the
- 52:31diff saver will work, I think it's also it is listed on.
- 52:33My hope it's like that on the website.
- 52:35That's 300. So yeah, that this had it in.
- 52:38The description for a while. So for sure that one on the
- 52:40shelf right there might magically and the difference is
- 52:43cool too, cuz it's like. So before you get to that, so
- 52:46the reason it started was cuz I was driving out to final bout
- 52:49three I think it was. And I knew my dip was all
- 52:51scraped up already. The car had like -8 front and
- 52:53rear. And I knew I was gonna drive all
- 52:54the way out there. I was like, fuck, I'm literally
- 52:56gonna get stuck in the middle of nowhere.
- 52:57So what did I do? I took a piece of, like, sheet
- 52:59metal. And what I did was I took it.
- 53:01I bolted it to the bottom of the back and literally just bent it
- 53:04up and then bolted it. Where the.
- 53:06The little ears of Yeah, where the dip.
- 53:07Goes into the what the fuck? And I drove out like that and we
- 53:11came back. I don't know if I told you about
- 53:12it. If I showed you whatever it was,
- 53:13he's and we showed Dan and Dan's like, this is cool.
- 53:16Let me make it like 100 times better.
- 53:18And he came up with that fucking cool thing, yeah.
- 53:21And yeah like 100 times better the if you see there's like a
- 53:24little metal like plates welded to the bottom of it.
- 53:28We could try to show the camera, but I'm.
- 53:30Showing you grab it. Oh perfect.
- 53:31Even better. So Malcolm is killing it, by the
- 53:34way, with this good. Good.
- 53:36Thanks, Malcolm. Thank you, Malcolm.
- 53:39Motherfucker, we had a we had an argument the other day.
- 53:44Oh, so now you guys. But you know, no we, no we.
- 53:46So anyway, the plates that are Weld on the bottom, if someone
- 53:49was handy enough and they war through those plates, they could
- 53:53make new ones and put them on themselves.
- 53:55Yeah. So it's kind of like a DIY thing
- 53:58as well. Yeah, it gives you extra space.
- 53:59So it's for if you're actually scraping it, so you don't scrape
- 54:02fully through it, you'll scrape through those pads 1st.
- 54:04And if you want you just Weld the new pads like that.
- 54:07Tape or glue a piece of magnesium on there and fucking.
- 54:10Start a fire. I feel like most of the products
- 54:13that you have are kind of Diyish in a way.
- 54:16Like the mirrors, it's mostly been stuff that I noticed that I
- 54:20either didn't like or I wanted to do and wasn't available or
- 54:23just. Just yeah, that's that is
- 54:26amazing. And that's exactly how I would
- 54:28have described it. It seems like every time you
- 54:30want something and isn't something there.
- 54:33You do it, Yeah. And that's exactly what happens.
- 54:36Forged by fire, baby. You have no choice.
- 54:38Yeah, those we have rear overs that I literally have prototypes
- 54:43for at home that I've had like half in the works since before
- 54:46Origin even came out with theirs.
- 54:48Yeah, cuz I remember talking to you about this shit like.
- 54:49Five years ago? Yeah, exactly.
- 54:51My I have a little office at home that I have a whiteboard
- 54:55that has like 25 products that are all either in the works or
- 54:58still need to be put in the works or just random little cool
- 55:01shit. But.
- 55:03I have a roof wing at home that's in the works till we just
- 55:05put out a trunk wing too. I don't know if you guys saw us.
- 55:06Like I did see that on the trunk wing.
- 55:10Front fenders that are kind of in the works, I have an idea.
- 55:13So even with those going back to those rear over, so Origin came
- 55:16out with the only. Overs that aren't like Rocket
- 55:20Bunny styled, where they're like a fat flare, like more like a
- 55:23OEM. There was a company before
- 55:25called Aim Gain that came out with them, but there's were just
- 55:27different. God damn aim gain stuff is
- 55:29expensive. Exactly.
- 55:30Yeah, exactly so. It was hard to get and it's also
- 55:33super expensive, so they had it. And I forget how wide they were.
- 55:35For whatever reason didn't work. So Origin came out with them,
- 55:38which was sick, but have you seen those yet in person?
- 55:41I've seen them and it's it's it's origin.
- 55:45I was just gonna say it's origin.
- 55:47So they're not fitting. Perfectly, I helped Tom last
- 55:50week and put his he has all new Origin shit on his call on his
- 55:52car. He did.
- 55:53Yeah, from bumper fenders, side skirts, through overs and rear
- 55:56bumper and Oh my God, it took us half the fucking day just to put
- 55:58that car together. Yeah.
- 56:00Anyway, so this is also totaled, but yeah.
- 56:02Yeah. How often do you help him with
- 56:04that? I don't even get me started.
- 56:06One time I saw the bumper that you put together and I was like
- 56:11French. It'll make you age fast.
- 56:13How the fuck did he put that together?
- 56:14Like, that's the worst puzzle ever.
- 56:16Like none of that. I wasn't even.
- 56:18Like a lot of some of the pieces.
- 56:19I was like, what the fuck? That's the shit that I like.
- 56:21The stuff that I actually really enjoy doing is when something's
- 56:23in like 5 or 6 pieces and it looks like it's trash and then
- 56:26all of a sudden I bring it back to the person.
- 56:27It's like a full front bump or full bumper they could put back
- 56:29on their cart. You know what I mean?
- 56:30Yeah, I love that stuff. The stuff that I hate is body
- 56:32work, sitting there and sanding for hours and training all the
- 56:35lines and stuff. And it just to me it's like.
- 56:38I mean, it's not a waste. I have to be in the right
- 56:40mindset for that. Yeah, if you get in the zone and
- 56:43you're just chilling, listening to music and stuff, it's fun.
- 56:45But it just to me it's such a waste of time and especially
- 56:47with drifting when you know it's going to fly off the car anyway
- 56:48and you're going to fuck it up anyway, It's just such a waste.
- 56:50Of time. That's why.
- 56:51You know how, like technically there's that blocking stage
- 56:54right? For that's that part.
- 56:57With fiberglass. Yeah, with fiberglass too.
- 57:00It's hard because a lot of no matter what company you buy it,
- 57:03at the end of the day it's fiberglass.
- 57:04It's gonna be WAVY, it's gonna be, it's gonna have its
- 57:06imperfection stuff. And it like, sucks because when
- 57:08you fix something, you'll make this section super straight,
- 57:11super nice. All the lines are perfect, but
- 57:12then you look like 6-7 inches further and it's like WAVY.
- 57:15I'm like, stupid. So it's like, I'm doing this.
- 57:17I might as well do this. It's like, I'm doing this.
- 57:18I might as well do that. And then, before you know it,
- 57:20fuck that. What I noticed so dumb what I
- 57:22noticed which I didn't know you could do.
- 57:23And this is just cuz I took a shot in the dark because the
- 57:25body kit I bought was so bad. Like confirmed.
- 57:29But you can. It's not bad anymore, but I've
- 57:32done that before. You can heat it up a moderate
- 57:35amount where you can manipulate it a little bit.
- 57:39So that's one thing that people don't understand is I definitely
- 57:43don't understand. Heat and fiberglass.
- 57:45Works Fucking one. It was, I could say.
- 57:48There you. Could you could take something
- 57:49like, let's see, even like an S13 bumper, it's supposed to go
- 57:52on the fenders. So what's the process?
- 57:52If it's like out like this, yeah, you can bring it back to
- 57:55like this and actually have it stay like that.
- 57:58You get it's super duper duper hot or you leave it out in the
- 58:00sun and like like for example for.
- 58:02Yeah, literally. Yeah, exactly.
- 58:04But it literally exactly like that.
- 58:06And what you do is you put it in the sun, or you put it, you give
- 58:08it a lot of heat and you put it to where you want it, or like a
- 58:11little past where you gotta somehow hold it there.
- 58:13Exactly, depending on what it is, what you're trying to do.
- 58:15But pretty much you you put it to where you wanted it a little
- 58:18little further from where you want it, you got it.
- 58:20Super duper duper hot, and then you just let it cool down by
- 58:23itself. All right, hold on.
- 58:24Let me write that down. It's really taking notes right
- 58:26now. With a highlighter.
- 58:27Funny enough, I was actually gonna bring a notepad.
- 58:29I'm the worst with like saying stuff and forgetting to like
- 58:31starting something and not finishing.
- 58:33I was gonna bring a notepad. No, because like that heating
- 58:36shit I did not know. I didn't know about that makes.
- 58:38Such a difference, but I I honestly took it for because I
- 58:42was like. Maybe he's like, leave that shit
- 58:44in the sun took a. Yeah, I mean there's there's
- 58:47looks like spaghetti when it comes out.
- 58:48Of a my my roommates. I didn't even use a heat gun
- 58:50because I knew that it if it had to heat it up, it's going to
- 58:53have to get pretty hot. So I used the blowtorch really
- 58:57quick and just backed it up over here.
- 58:59You. Don't want to do.
- 59:00That and and I was doing it. Shellcoat like peel I was doing.
- 59:02It and like it was and I was watching it.
- 59:05I'm like monitoring it and then like bending it.
- 59:08And then I had a rag with some water, dude.
- 59:11And then I'll like. A moment.
- 59:12It's where I'm holding it, where it's gotta be or whatever.
- 59:15And it's holding shape. I'll like, cool it down.
- 59:16Is that right? Is that correct?
- 59:17Yeah, I have. Should I be doing that?
- 59:18I have pictures of Alex's side skirts from Front.
- 59:25St. Yeah, are you working on those?
- 59:26Yes. Alex Avilla.
- 59:29Yeah, yeah, I have. I have a bunch of his stuff that
- 59:31I've been. Stuff that he's not driving,
- 59:33that's one of the last things that has to get known as yeah,
- 59:35but don't worry, he's not gonna rush.
- 59:37All his, no, all his stuff is done.
- 59:38I just gotta prime it now and just finish off a little stuff.
- 59:40But anyway, yeah, his side skirts that he had, I guess, I
- 59:42think Josh told me that they had him somewhere where tires were
- 59:45on top of him or something. So like, the side skirts were
- 59:47like legitimately like probably. And they were like, bubbled out.
- 59:51And I literally have a picture of them like that.
- 59:54And then like 30 minutes later, I sent them another picture of,
- 59:56like, them being completely pinned straight.
- 59:58And what I did was I heated them up a bunch.
- 59:59I took two pieces of like, metal, like flat, like flat
- 1:00:04stock, flat stock, whatever it's called, put it on top and
- 1:00:08clamped it down so it got it. Super duper, duper hot.
- 1:00:10Gave it a little bit to cool off and literally completely fucking
- 1:00:13straight. Wow.
- 1:00:14Yeah, dude, once you get that resin hot, you could, Yeah, you
- 1:00:16could. Literally.
- 1:00:17Bring anything back? I fucking love fiberglass.
- 1:00:20Yeah, you have it. You can't change shapes, but you
- 1:00:22could manipulate how things. Yes, yes.
- 1:00:25So let's say if you're a bumper, if you buy some bullshit and
- 1:00:27your bumper's like 2 inches long and it's supposed to be,
- 1:00:29obviously you can't fix that. But if you have it like where it
- 1:00:33angles out too much, or like something's bent or something's
- 1:00:36gross, you could train all that stuff out.
- 1:00:37Damn. Dude, Yeah.
- 1:00:38That body kit, Frankie was not. When I first pulled it out the
- 1:00:43box. Dude, I wouldn't doubt it.
- 1:00:45What kind of kit was it? I don't know.
- 1:00:46Amazon No. Oh, Amazon Spanish, No body kit
- 1:00:49from Amazon. Now I was from the Dominican
- 1:00:51Republic. I bought a I bought some before
- 1:00:54from JP Fiberglass. How was that?
- 1:00:55I had a bad experience with JP Fiberglass actually, and I am
- 1:00:59not afraid. Didn't meant that.
- 1:01:00That shit came in a wooden box. Bro mine coffin.
- 1:01:03I mean that. Might be that might be a good
- 1:01:05thing. No, no.
- 1:01:05That's how my body kit came. It was packaged like a coffin.
- 1:01:10But like, very light foreign wood.
- 1:01:12I don't want to talk badly on them because it could be someone
- 1:01:15that's they're doing cool stuff. I mean they're they do have cool
- 1:01:17parts, but just the quality of the stuff.
- 1:01:19Yeah, the. Quality is so so bad and the
- 1:01:21shipping like I ordered a what did I order when I first had a
- 1:01:26vert that had we had a chuky front and I was trying to get a
- 1:01:29E bare lip and I ordered it. Trying to kill us.
- 1:01:32Did not fit at all and also when it shipped it.
- 1:01:36When they shipped it, it was just wrapped in Styrofoam.
- 1:01:39So it was bent when it showed up at my door and I was like, what
- 1:01:42the fuck? Looking back on it now, I
- 1:01:44probably could have learned fiberglass, but I was pissed
- 1:01:46because I spend mad long waiting for this thing and.
- 1:01:49Don't you get annoyed by the fiberglass everywhere?
- 1:01:52Is there a trick for that? How do you deal with that?
- 1:01:54You're about like Fibrost repairs.
- 1:01:55Like on your body. On your body.
- 1:01:57I fucking got immune to him. I don't even smell that shit
- 1:02:00anymore. Oh my.
- 1:02:01It doesn't it a little bit. I mean, if you're in it, like
- 1:02:04the worst thing is using like like an angle grinder or some
- 1:02:08sort of grinder. It's all that does.
- 1:02:10That shit gets itchy. That's.
- 1:02:11FOX Well, that's literally what I did cuz it's like you'll get
- 1:02:13in the shower, you'll wash it off and hospital there.
- 1:02:15You're still itchy. Yeah yeah that shit sucks.
- 1:02:18Um, you just wear long sleeves. Definitely wear a respirator.
- 1:02:20I didn't wear a respirator for a while and you should definitely
- 1:02:22wear respirator. That's not good.
- 1:02:23Bye Chris. Later get home safe.
- 1:02:26What are some cuz? OK, so you made this kit and
- 1:02:29all, but what I feel like the part for me is that I'll be able
- 1:02:34to make something, but to bring it into production is a
- 1:02:37completely different realm. So that sounds like the hard
- 1:02:41part to me. Personally, yes.
- 1:02:42But no. The hard part was learning to do
- 1:02:45everything and kind of. I've realized I know the type of
- 1:02:48person I am. I'm really good at doing 80 to
- 1:02:5190% of something and the last 10% I'm fucking terrible with
- 1:02:54so. It's nice.
- 1:02:56It's it's nice to to. Have people to to or have
- 1:02:59someone that you know could could do those final little
- 1:03:01touches with that I've spent. It's been so fucking long now.
- 1:03:07It's been like over five years, almost six years.
- 1:03:09So like now I do have. I have a couple different the
- 1:03:12kit that I have now, I'm on Producer #3 or 4 and it's been
- 1:03:18absolutely terrible. Hopefully by the end of this
- 1:03:20year I have I think three more kits that have to get shipped
- 1:03:25out that I literally paid for last August.
- 1:03:29So it's been like over a year. Yeah, like it's it's it's
- 1:03:32absolutely ridiculous. They they make cool stuff, but
- 1:03:34just terrible. So that's been the the kind of a
- 1:03:37shitty part. But I've gotten to the point now
- 1:03:39where like there's different people in different areas and
- 1:03:42different companies that I've figured out or found through
- 1:03:44other people. The first producer I found,
- 1:03:46funny enough, it was literally EJ collective or looks like
- 1:03:50whatever it is now. He gave me a number to someone.
- 1:03:54I called that guy. I was like, hey, give him the
- 1:03:56whole spiel. He's like, all right, I don't do
- 1:03:57this, but I have this, this or that person to do it.
- 1:03:59So I called another guy, another guy, same spiel, this, this,
- 1:04:02that. I don't do it, but I know this
- 1:04:03guy. I went through like 5 different
- 1:04:04people and that guy. That actually led me to the
- 1:04:06first producer I have saved. I don't even know the guy's
- 1:04:08name. His name in my phone's like
- 1:04:10fiberglass body kit guy or whatever.
- 1:04:13And that's how I found it. So thankfully throughout the
- 1:04:15years. Is that the boat guy?
- 1:04:16No. So that was that.
- 1:04:17So that was a second you guys had.
- 1:04:19So what? Yeah.
- 1:04:20So you guys had Reese on here. Reese Martin.
- 1:04:22Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:04:23So the guy that he does that race program with Ed, Yeah, is
- 1:04:28the guy that I met through that. He's the boat guy.
- 1:04:30He lives down in Baltimore. I met that guy before he started
- 1:04:33working with Reese on all that stuff.
- 1:04:34And he was making kits for a few minutes.
- 1:04:36No, he doesn't make kits. He makes both stuff.
- 1:04:37So he does fiberglass. I forget who.
- 1:04:39It's a different kind of fiberglass, yes, but no.
- 1:04:43The mold process that he goes through is way more intense and
- 1:04:47way bigger. I think the molds that so just
- 1:04:49for perspective the. First, no one knows how this
- 1:04:51shit works. Oh, it is.
- 1:04:53You build a plug or. Yeah, the mold, Yeah.
- 1:04:55So you built, you have a plug, which is your original part and
- 1:04:58you you make a mold of it. So you use that part where you
- 1:05:01like put fiberglass on. You make this whole thing that
- 1:05:04you pop off and then that's your mold.
- 1:05:06So it's like a negative of the negative positive.
- 1:05:10I don't even know what it is. Yes, the opposite of whatever
- 1:05:12part you're trying to make And the way that he did it because
- 1:05:16he does boat stuff. He they made him out of wood and
- 1:05:20they made these huge contraptions.
- 1:05:32It's so funny but. Huge stuff.
- 1:05:22Long story short it was just way too expensive.
- 1:05:24It wouldn't work. He's like plus I don't make body
- 1:05:25kits I'm not going to be your guy.
- 1:05:27So ended up not working out. But but yeah, funny enough,
- 1:05:29literally I know that guy and then restarted working with.
- 1:05:34Fiberglass is a weird animal dude.
- 1:05:36Yeah is. You could do kind of a lot of
- 1:05:37different things with it. There's so and.
- 1:05:39Repairing stuff is is a lot easier than.
- 1:05:41I mean, you can see what Dave's going through right now.
- 1:05:44Now people can maybe understand why everything's made in other
- 1:05:47countries. Yeah, it's not too easy to get
- 1:05:49that stuff done here. That shit sucks.
- 1:05:51Yeah, I've thankfully I found a really cool producer that
- 1:05:54already makes stuff for other companies and other people
- 1:05:56that's out in Cali, and they've been really helpful.
- 1:05:58They've been doing our wings, the the trunk wings, so they're
- 1:06:00really cool. The plan is to move all our
- 1:06:02stuff out over to them and have them do it 100%.
- 1:06:06Like fulfillment everything shipped from them.
- 1:06:08I mean the the best way to do it, they won't be able to keep
- 1:06:13quantities out there. So I probably order in bulk have
- 1:06:16to ship over here and then from here out ship.
- 1:06:19So you would still take care of the fulfillment.
- 1:06:21Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They wouldn't be able to, They
- 1:06:23could ship stuff. If it's like a one order thing,
- 1:06:24they could ship it, but they can't keep stocks so.
- 1:06:28What about like a speaker box? You think you could build that
- 1:06:30like crazy? Mad Mic Pit, My ride looking
- 1:06:32shit 100%. I feel like that would be easy
- 1:06:35for you now, 100% dude. Because now when I watch those
- 1:06:37videos, I remember, I would remember like somebody what
- 1:06:40they're doing with it and they're like build something
- 1:06:42wood and get like the circular shit.
- 1:06:44And like, build A-frame and then just lay this mat over it.
- 1:06:46Pretty much. Pretty much the way it works is
- 1:06:48you just kind of make whatever you get whatever shape you need,
- 1:06:52and then you either lay fiberglass on top of it or on
- 1:06:54the inside of it. Yeah, pop it out the part that
- 1:06:56sucks afterwards, obviously doing all the body work, getting
- 1:06:58it all smooth and all that bullshit.
- 1:07:00But it's not. It's not terrible.
- 1:07:03It's just fit. It smells, it smells.
- 1:07:06It's really itchy. Fuck Fiberglass, it's a Yeah no.
- 1:07:09Fucking. I don't mind.
- 1:07:10The thought of trying to make a speaker boxes right now is
- 1:07:12making me want to throw. It sounds fun.
- 1:07:14I would just be like, all right, where's the wood at?
- 1:07:15I would get a bunch of, I would get a bunch of the little pieces
- 1:07:18of wood just, you know, a little bit.
- 1:07:20And then I'm just going to be sitting there for fucking three
- 1:07:22hours, just like, how should I put this in here?
- 1:07:25That's, that's how I do. That's the mindset that that's
- 1:07:29the headspace that I have to be in to do body work and sit there
- 1:07:33and think about that's how I made the fucking eyelids.
- 1:07:35Like I sat there and I was like, I wonder how this works.
- 1:07:38I didn't really watch too many YouTube videos on it.
- 1:07:39I mean, I watched like 2. I don't think you really did
- 1:07:41either when you. Yeah, like what did you where
- 1:07:43are you learning this dude? Literally, Like I said, I don't
- 1:07:45even have a driveway. I literally sat and I.
- 1:07:47Know what your driveway looks like And I don't have like,
- 1:07:50where? Do you do this?
- 1:07:51Yeah. I don't have a now, I rent a
- 1:07:53garage. But for the longest time I
- 1:07:54didn't have a garage. So I did everything in my
- 1:07:56driveway and it was literally just throwing shit together.
- 1:07:59Like one person would say this and one person's like, yeah, I
- 1:08:01fixed this bumper once, Just do this or that.
- 1:08:03And someone's like, yeah, like, I know this guy did this, just
- 1:08:05try that. And it was just trial and error.
- 1:08:06Trial and error. A lot of trial and error.
- 1:08:08That's. Crazy dude.
- 1:08:09Like I said, I think it started like 6 almost seven years ago,
- 1:08:13dude. It's not even like you could.
- 1:08:15I mean, maybe you could YouTube, but I haven't tried.
- 1:08:17Maybe I should when I get home. So, like, how to make Bumper.
- 1:08:20I don't, I don't want to say names or anything, but there was
- 1:08:22someone that was doing something similar.
- 1:08:23I'll leave it at that. And I remember reaching out and
- 1:08:25getting super hyped like, oh shit, like dude, you're doing
- 1:08:27this. Like I'm doing this too, like
- 1:08:29blah blah, sending a million pictures and stuff.
- 1:08:31And literally the reply back was look it up or like do it
- 1:08:34yourself or something like that. That was their fucking reply.
- 1:08:37And what's even crazier is I found out later that they
- 1:08:39weren't even the guy that was doing it.
- 1:08:40It was someone else that was doing it for me.
- 1:08:43Yeah, super shitty. I guess I need.
- 1:08:45Yeah, well, I feel like in our I can't believe.
- 1:08:47If someone has a ball to just look it up.
- 1:08:49And I agree, like you. Ain't getting to talk about on a
- 1:08:51podcast. That's every.
- 1:08:54I feel like person who doesn't, they're very prideful in the
- 1:08:58fact that they figured out how to.
- 1:08:59Yeah, I kind of. There's a part.
- 1:09:00Of me, understand. There's a part of me that gets
- 1:09:02it, I guess, because you also like, yeah, I think about it
- 1:09:06like all the shit that I had to go through.
- 1:09:07But then again it's like. You're not like that.
- 1:09:09You're not like that by the way. I couldn't be able to first of
- 1:09:12all but. You could say help somebody out.
- 1:09:14Instead, I I think about it Now let's say I don't really read
- 1:09:17books, but I think about it. Seeing with books, it's like
- 1:09:18dude, like something that took someone years to learn or like
- 1:09:21their entire life to. Learn, dude.
- 1:09:23You could fucking just read. It.
- 1:09:24You could just read it, yeah, that's it.
- 1:09:25And that was the cool thing with with chem, all, with all the
- 1:09:28stuff that I was doing. So I came in, I knew fiberglass
- 1:09:30stuff, kind of. And I knew, like, body work
- 1:09:33stuff like, OK, yeah, ish, like I could put down Bondo and sand
- 1:09:38it, but I knew fucking nothing. And just like being able to be
- 1:09:41there with someone who's been doing it for so long been like,
- 1:09:43yeah, don't do that. Do it this way.
- 1:09:45Or like, no, you're a dumbass that doesn't work.
- 1:09:47Do it this way, like saves you so much fucking.
- 1:09:49Yeah, dude, having a mentor is a big thing.
- 1:09:53Pretty much any automotive, anything to anything in any sort
- 1:09:56of anything even outside of automotive, like having someone
- 1:09:58that can guide you and someone that's cool and actually is like
- 1:10:00willing to like help you. And then on top of someone was
- 1:10:02like cool that you could actually vibe with me.
- 1:10:04Cool. Yeah, When I saw you were
- 1:10:05working with him, I was like, ah dude, it was like literally
- 1:10:07goosebumps just talking about. Like, I fucking love watching
- 1:10:10his stories, dude. Remember when he came in here
- 1:10:12and he was like, I kind of don't know if I should be posting.
- 1:10:15And now he's posting a shit load.
- 1:10:16And every day I work is my favorite shit to watch.
- 1:10:18Because I could. Oh yeah, We were telling him how
- 1:10:20he liked. The story I love watching him
- 1:10:22like, explain, like the little things he's gotten a lot better.
- 1:10:25Yeah, and he knows I when I first started, he was kind of
- 1:10:28not really against it, but he kind of just like, he'd post
- 1:10:30like posts of like things that are finished, but as we were
- 1:10:33kind of doing more stuff, he'd post more stories and he noticed
- 1:10:36that, like, a lot of people like that stuff too, so.
- 1:10:37For Instagram, it's. It's great.
- 1:10:40I've been giving, watching any kind of free knowledge and
- 1:10:42making it a marketable thing is like the fastest way to get
- 1:10:45people interested. And people like that stuff too,
- 1:10:47you know? It's just like it.
- 1:10:49Like, I'm thinking like if I was in a spot where I was trying to
- 1:10:51learn something, like being able to watch someone's story and
- 1:10:53seeing half the shit he does. Like what the?
- 1:10:55I watched him, yeah. Exactly.
- 1:10:57Today there was an FD1 on there and there was a crunch, right?
- 1:11:01And and for me, I was like, damn, I did that shit to my S13,
- 1:11:05I guess. So then I'm watching it and I'm
- 1:11:07like. If anyone doesn't know, we're
- 1:11:08talking about super. Life on.
- 1:11:10Yes, we had a podcast on here. If you guys are interested in
- 1:11:12checking that out, that's in a watches, it's.
- 1:11:14Awesome. Yeah, dude.
- 1:11:16He's so much information on there.
- 1:11:17But literally, like, I was watching in what?
- 1:11:21How I watch stuff now. I don't know if all you guys are
- 1:11:23the same, but I'll watch it and I'm like, oh, that's how you
- 1:11:26would do that or how that's how you would go about doing that.
- 1:11:29There's like the way he stenciled.
- 1:11:31I'm like, wow. So that's one thing.
- 1:11:33That's one thing that I've, I've realized through him.
- 1:11:35That's something he explained to me too, is everyone has a
- 1:11:38different way of doing stuff. There's people.
- 1:11:39Gonna watch that video and they're gonna freak out, Yeah.
- 1:11:41They're probably. It's wrong.
- 1:11:43Yeah, exactly. I mean you you can I guess the
- 1:11:45the other like me not wanna say. I mean, I mean, he explained it,
- 1:11:48yeah, he said it himself. He's like, this might not be the
- 1:11:50same way everyone does it with this how I'm gonna do it.
- 1:11:51Like, yeah, OK, you could like strap it to A-frame machine and
- 1:11:53pull it out, but if you're doing like the little.
- 1:11:55It's also his shop. Yeah, it's like that's his way
- 1:11:58of doing it. It's not.
- 1:11:59It's not like he's not. He doesn't A-frame machine in
- 1:12:01the back, exactly. So it's.
- 1:12:02Like, I'm gonna do what I even said he's like.
- 1:12:04I'm not about like, I'm not a Body Shop guy, you know, So it's
- 1:12:08like, but of course you'll have those people in the comments.
- 1:12:10Not a Bible, but I'm also not an artist.
- 1:12:13Yeah, don't call. Me an artist?
- 1:12:14Yeah. And I was like, you're an
- 1:12:15artist, definitely don't say it's a body, it's.
- 1:12:18Not about bro. Did he tell you the story of
- 1:12:19when he did the dude shit all over his deep?
- 1:12:22Oh my God, dude, no. Yeah, dude, I.
- 1:12:24Oh my. Fucking.
- 1:12:25God, now that we're talking about it, that was actually one
- 1:12:27of the best podcast, yeah. And you don't realize it when
- 1:12:29it's happened. So.
- 1:12:31Much and and I The thing is is like in his stories now
- 1:12:34sometimes. I think there was a story that
- 1:12:36he posted where somebody, somebody like sat on the hose
- 1:12:40and like it shot right up. Oh yeah, Recently.
- 1:12:43Yeah, he stepped on it. Yeah, Yeah, they were by the car
- 1:12:45and. I'm looking for me.
- 1:12:46I was paying more attention at like the gate and the Wawa that
- 1:12:49he talks about that he's a regular at and I'm like.
- 1:12:51Yo, I feel like I've fucking been here before.
- 1:12:53I know the funny, the funniest videos I think that I've ever
- 1:12:56that we've ever gotten from. There was there was this cat
- 1:12:59that he feeds cats all the time. Yeah, I seen there's a couple
- 1:13:01cats that come by. There was this one cat that was
- 1:13:04like super skittish when they kind of come by.
- 1:13:05So he was like trying to like trying to like feed the cat and
- 1:13:08trying to like get it to be like get like comfortable and kind of
- 1:13:11start coming in and stuff. And that cat disappeared for a
- 1:13:13little bit. Turns out it had babies.
- 1:13:15So there was a process that we went through while I was working
- 1:13:19there where we were trying to like lure these cats in to get
- 1:13:21them comfortable and like bring them in and stuff.
- 1:13:23This was part of the job description.
- 1:13:24Sounds like my worst nightmare. As dude, they got to the point
- 1:13:28where we got them like kind of like comfortable enough where
- 1:13:32they'd come by and dude we set up like a full on like cage it
- 1:13:35like straight out of a cartoon, a cage attached to a string
- 1:13:38where we like lured them in under the thing and we pulled
- 1:13:41the Stringer like dropped on top of it.
- 1:13:43The cat's inside like freaking out and stuff.
- 1:13:45He's like, we got it, we got it. So we ended up bringing inside,
- 1:13:47like, all right, we got him, we're gonna get him comfortable.
- 1:13:49And he brought him into like the office section of the thing and
- 1:13:53somehow he ran through and got into the garage and dude, it was
- 1:13:57like a solid like 4 hours of trying to block off those is.
- 1:14:00Wrangle these cats in the shop. The videos that I have from that
- 1:14:04day, it was just like just running around trying to grab
- 1:14:06the cats. He like had gloves on at one
- 1:14:08point, like tried to grab it. Start like biting him into shit,
- 1:14:10just like jumped around. Oh my gosh.
- 1:14:12What the fuck, dude? It was the funniest shit.
- 1:14:14He's a cat. They had a possum here once.
- 1:14:17Oh. Oh God.
- 1:14:17It did. It was on the we.
- 1:14:19Got real fucking lucky, dude. We the car.
- 1:14:22Someone pulls the car in. It's Wait, it was here.
- 1:14:24It was Wes's car. Yeah, young Dave was here.
- 1:14:27Dave was in the video. Young Dave is check out David
- 1:14:29Bob's cousin, by the way, if no one knows that married and
- 1:14:31cousin funny enough. Which I think it's fucking
- 1:14:34hilarious. It's so funny cuz he used to hit
- 1:14:36me up like before we were even like knew that much about us,
- 1:14:39about the car cuz he loved Frs's and PR Z's.
- 1:14:42And then so the way that we're family now is my uncle married
- 1:14:48one of his cousins. So we became family through that
- 1:14:52way and yeah and yeah, I'm super tight with Mike and David now.
- 1:14:56But I remember like 7 years ago when David, oh, your little
- 1:14:59cousin was here. We, like, really hang.
- 1:15:00He's like annoying, man. He's annoying, dude.
- 1:15:03He was like, he was like an 11 year old kid that would just
- 1:15:06message. Me, he would just ride his
- 1:15:07bicycle. How fucking wild is that also
- 1:15:10somebody? Asked.
- 1:15:11I literally watched your relationship was grow.
- 1:15:14Yeah, I'm way different than what it was, yeah.
- 1:15:17I just want to say that somebody asked where?
- 1:15:20Young Dave went because. Where'd he go?
- 1:15:22I they they Dmed me and now hey where's young Dave?
- 1:15:25We missed him or we I met, you know I haven't seen him around
- 1:15:28and I I said he's enjoying his summer and stuff you know he's.
- 1:15:31So young Dave still in high school.
- 1:15:33Yeah, young Dave's not with us anymore at Faction.
- 1:15:36We had to put him down unfortunately.
- 1:15:37Yeah, he's buried on the train tracks.
- 1:15:40No, no, no, no. He's still around, but he's he's
- 1:15:42more into hockey right now. So if you can find him on
- 1:15:45Instagram and tell him that hockey's, please.
- 1:15:47Message him and blame him. Yeah, I'll take half the blame
- 1:15:50for that, honestly. Yeah, wait, you could take all
- 1:15:52the blame. Yeah, I.
- 1:15:53Nah, let him do other stuff. Well, so.
- 1:15:56So I get it. But I've realized he also has a
- 1:15:58very He gets super into something.
- 1:16:02The same way, I guess. So yeah, exactly.
- 1:16:04It's a cool thing because it like someone who's that
- 1:16:06dedicated to something actually gets stuff done, actually gets
- 1:16:08places and and does stuff. But in this situation, he might
- 1:16:12have went the wrong direction. But I don't know, yeah, he he.
- 1:16:14So I was coming back, yeah, I was playing hockey and like, I

- 1:21:49I'm not going to knock it. I mean, it was.
- 1:21:52How come their friend grew doing it, Frankie.
- 1:21:55You got money? Yeah, exactly.
- 1:21:56I mean, they made, they made it happen with limited funds.
- 1:21:59They did. They.

- 1:22:23Yeah, he's been unemployed for like.
- 1:22:26I think he's on his nine month anniversary.
- 1:22:28Hell yeah. That's the best way to do it.
- 1:22:29Nine months. You know, you just have Joe
- 1:22:31Biden pay for you. Dude, I was unemployed for like

- 1:22:43solid group of friends that they're always doing shit, so.
- 1:22:45He stays busy. Yeah, I heard some stories.
- 1:22:47I mean, I heard the one story from Mike where he was like.
- 1:22:50Fucking he was fucking really fucked up.
- 1:22:52Like snowboarding? Yeah, so they so when they were
- 1:22:57on that trip, so first Mike fucked up because something
- 1:23:00happened where he went off trail and he ended up though they were
- 1:23:03snowboarding, skiing, all that stuff.
- 1:23:04That's part of what their trip was because they bought the they
- 1:23:07called Icon Passes, where I don't know if you got snowboard
- 1:23:09ski or not. Yeah, yeah, you can go on
- 1:23:11multiple different. Mountains.
- 1:23:12So you buy a pass where you're good for, oh, I keep hitting
- 1:23:15this where you're good for like the entire year.
- 1:23:17You could hit up like. Pretty much all the the, the
- 1:23:19mountains in the in the country. So they were, I don't know where
- 1:23:24the fuck they were. There were somewhere on the West
- 1:23:25Coast and his. Battery was like low.
- 1:23:27Yeah, he went off. He went off the trail somewhere
- 1:23:31and somehow ended up getting stuck and got lost.
- 1:23:34So he literally thankfully his phone wasn't dead.
- 1:23:36He ended up calling like 911. They came like ski patrol.
- 1:23:38Yeah, they actually came like he used that feature.
- 1:23:40Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, yeah.
- 1:23:41Like the SOS mode. Yeah, Like, literally.
- 1:23:44They came. He was like.
- 1:23:45Close to being fucked. Yeah, like he was stuck out
- 1:23:47there for a while. What's even crazier is they they
- 1:23:49they picked him up, they finally found him, brought him to
- 1:23:51whatever, they started driving. And then I guess because of all
- 1:23:53the altitude changes that that guy Paul, he also got super
- 1:23:56sick. Oh my God, he got like super
- 1:23:57pale. His like eyes started rolling
- 1:23:59back and shit. He got like all like cold and
- 1:24:01stuff and what the yeah. They all they they're all their
- 1:24:04friend. Maxim.
- 1:24:05I think this is the best. That's it.
- 1:24:06Yeah. Literally.
- 1:24:07Straight up. Yeah, exactly.
- 1:24:09Worst. Fear ever?
- 1:24:10Oh my God. I'm trying to hike Everest one.

- 1:24:18of the mountains, people are there's so much are walking.
- 1:24:20There's so much trash up there and.
- 1:24:22Shit, trying to be one of those bodies.
- 1:24:23You know what the trash is? All the dead bodies.
- 1:24:25All the dead bodies. A lot of free tents though.
- 1:24:27Worst case scenario, I'll just be one of those bodies.
- 1:24:30You just gotta pull the body up. Pull the body at the tent.
- 1:24:32You got a free tent. I know how we got off on it.
- 1:24:34Oh. Young Dave, That's.
- 1:24:36Yeah, yeah, you're blame Mike, you said.
- 1:24:38Because Mike's doing all this stuff.

- 1:24:47biking, he's into skiing, He does.
- 1:24:49I want a mountain bike with him, but he never invites me.
- 1:24:51Yeah, he did, he goes. You want a mountain bike?
- 1:24:53Yeah, he goes to Mountain Creek like.
- 1:24:55Yeah, I'm trying to do that. Real weekend.

- 1:25:11He just bought a brand new sprinter van, got it fully like,
- 1:25:14yeah, he lives out of that van now, pretty much.
- 1:25:15That's like his. Full So does he have a shop

- 1:25:35Once something. Sits.
- 1:25:37That's three years. Cody's on like 6.
- 1:25:38Once something sits for a certain amount of time, it just
- 1:25:41like. In a way, yeah.
- 1:25:44The thing is, you walk by it too many times and you just like,
- 1:25:46stop paying attention to it. It's just there.
- 1:25:49But here, here's the difference. He's been talking about that
- 1:25:52shit constantly. I'd never bring my car up.
- 1:25:55Yeah, cuz everybody else does. Yeah.
- 1:25:56Yeah, we all do it for you, Cody.

- 1:26:26Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:26:28It's just his priorities are kind of.
- 1:26:30It's cool because he set himself up in a spot where like he's
- 1:26:33100% in control of his life. He does what he wants.
- 1:26:35He does it how he wants and kind of just like everything he made
- 1:26:38everything kind of like fall into place where he's, he's a
- 1:26:39super hard working kid. Don't let me.
- 1:26:41Yeah, Don't. Let me it seems like.

- 1:32:44like the Italian. Yeah, it's the same thing, but
- 1:32:48it's a way better version of where it's not like it's sweet,
- 1:32:51but it's. But it's strong.
- 1:32:53It was like kick. You on it but nice if it's like
- 1:32:55it's you make it's the way they make.
- 1:32:56So we we make it ourselves too. You could buy it, but like we
- 1:32:58make it ourselves and. You guys are bootleggers.
- 1:33:01Oh. Allegedly, that's what the.
- 1:33:04Fr That's what the Brz's used for.
- 1:33:06It's a running shine. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:33:08Why do you think my car's been running so good?
- 1:33:10No. Yeah, it's like lemon cello.
- 1:33:14It's lemons, honey and distilled water, plus the Polish Everclear
- 1:33:20stuff. And yeah, shit is fucking.
- 1:33:22When did you have your first drink?
- 1:33:24My first drink. This is all off the record.
- 1:33:26Allegedly. Allegedly.
- 1:33:28Yeah. Well, yeah.
- 1:33:29No, I was a little. I was a little drunk.
- 1:33:31I probably started drinking like beginning of high school.
- 1:33:37End of. Yeah, I was gonna say it was
- 1:33:39roughly in the middle of freshman year.
- 1:33:40What does that mean at one point?
- 1:33:42Like 13141414 now 15 is June sophomore, sophomore, junior.
- 1:33:47Yeah, so it's like end of middle school going into.
- 1:33:50I mean, we, yeah, it was. Probably like a beer you stole.
- 1:33:52Yo-yo yo. Yeah, no.
- 1:33:54And I was always friends with like with older kids.
- 1:33:56So it just. Yeah.
- 1:33:58I can't say. Everyone in my school was doing
- 1:34:00coke at the age of 13. What the fuck?
- 1:34:02Yeah, we had. We had friends.
- 1:34:04Everyone smoked weed too. So, allegedly I was.
- 1:34:10Maybe not. Save yourself.
- 1:34:14And so everyone was smoking to me before, but.
- 1:34:17We had friends that were like tripping and like taking shrooms
- 1:34:19and ass and stuff like that back then.
- 1:34:20But but coke now, that that stuff doesn't come till like
- 1:34:22you're way later. Once you get old, you realize
- 1:34:24like everyone does coke but. Yeah.
- 1:34:26All these kids in my high school doing.
- 1:34:27A hardcore drug. Everyone, the older you get.
- 1:34:29It's so weird because I notice it, because I'm like, hey, wait
- 1:34:36a minute, that was not you 15 minutes ago.
- 1:34:39Like, what the fuck? Everyone's on Adderall now too.
- 1:34:42Yo Adderall. That sounds like a normal thing.
- 1:34:44Personally. And my honest opinion, I think
- 1:34:47Adderall is if you have, let's say you have good coke and you
- 1:34:52have Adderall. Allegedly.
- 1:34:53Allegedly, the Adderall, in my opinion, is so much it's harder.
- 1:34:59Like it's long. So I completely understand the
- 1:35:05positives of people taking Adderall and stuff like I've
- 1:35:07considered it too my. Like trying to get like
- 1:35:10prescribed and stuff, but like my fucking brain's all over the
- 1:35:12place most of the time. It's hard to focus with shit and
- 1:35:14kind of just. Like, dude, I feel you.
- 1:35:15And I know it would help me so fucking much, but at the same
- 1:35:19time, it's just like it takes you start taking it.
- 1:35:21Just like I know I had one friend in college that I met
- 1:35:25that was taking, I think he had like 40 milligrams prescribed to
- 1:35:28him and he took that daily, daily.
- 1:35:30Daily and like, he literally had to have one day a week on
- 1:35:33Saturdays where he'd literally just sit at home on the couch
- 1:35:35and vegetate and not take it for it to like.
- 1:35:37That doesn't sound like good to me.
- 1:35:38Yeah, exactly. So, like, it has its benefits,
- 1:35:40but like, how far do you want to?
- 1:35:41I just don't. Want to rely on?
- 1:35:43Anything this is this? Is the same way, I don't rely.
- 1:35:44On it. This is how I viewed it because
- 1:35:47to me it was a tool where it allows me to maximize the amount
- 1:35:52of time where I'm not doing shit and diddling around in college
- 1:35:55and then then maybe a day or two before something I need to do.
- 1:35:59Well, take an Adderall. Do work all fucking night.
- 1:36:04And then the next, For the next three days, my brain is just so
- 1:36:07foggy because it was on 10. Yeah, for like so long.
- 1:36:11Oh my God. Or for those hours.
- 1:36:12And then I'm just like see, but when you really.
- 1:36:13Think about it. It's like, OK, so you had one
- 1:36:15day of super productivity and now you have three days of.
- 1:36:17Nothing. It's like nothingness.
- 1:36:19It's like where do you wanna? Yeah, and I don't know, it's
- 1:36:22like. Something you do if you can't
- 1:36:23get your priorities. Straight I do.
- 1:36:25I did. I do try to cuz I know it would
- 1:36:28make me. That's the thing.
- 1:36:29I know it would make me better too, but I don't wanna.
- 1:36:31I don't wanna take it. I don't know how much is gonna
- 1:36:33help and I just don't wanna get into something.
- 1:36:35Not that I don't have an addictive personality, but I
- 1:36:37just don't wanna take cuz I know it's gonna help.
- 1:36:38It's like I'd rather get to that myself somehow and kind of
- 1:36:41figure that out somehow rather than be like, all right, I'll
- 1:36:44just take this. It's gonna help me.
- 1:36:45Yes, I think all writers take that shit.
- 1:36:47Adderall. That's just in the movie
- 1:36:49Limitless. They're all.
- 1:36:50Coked up too. Man, I want that.
- 1:36:52Choke too. Whatever that shit is from
- 1:36:54Limitless that NZT. Adderall is like the legal coke,
- 1:36:57right? I don't know.
- 1:36:58It's more classified as like a methamphetamine actually, I
- 1:37:01think. Yeah, I think so.
- 1:37:02Yeah, it is. I don't know why I know that.
- 1:37:06I'm pretty sure it is. I think it's because I failed a
- 1:37:08drug test once for a job and they were like, what is this?
- 1:37:14No, I was. Just meth.
- 1:37:15I'm pretty sure it's for like, Pep Boys.
- 1:37:18Which is wild. You got to work at Pep Boys.
- 1:37:20Yeah, in college I tried to get a job briefly.
- 1:37:22Yeah, they made sure you're on drugs.
- 1:37:23And they were like, before you. They were like, yeah, this is
- 1:37:26hilarious, actually, you want to hear I got rejected from Pep
- 1:37:29Boys because. You weren't doing meth.
- 1:37:30No, I wasn't doing enough meth. But they rejected me because
- 1:37:35they, again, they had me go to a drug test.
- 1:37:38So normal. I talked to, I aced the
- 1:37:40interview. They're like, all right, we're
- 1:37:41just going to wait for your drug test.
- 1:37:43And I was. Like what?
- 1:37:45And they were like, yeah, you drug test And I was like, all
- 1:37:47right, yeah, sure you. Didn't.
- 1:37:48Take. And then I went to go expecting
- 1:37:50like, you know, normal piss test and I had like a couple of days
- 1:37:53or something. So I drank hell of water and I
- 1:37:56get there and it's a hair test. I Google.
- 1:37:58Oh my God, I Google a hair test really quick.
- 1:38:01And I'm like, Oh my God. Like it's it's gonna catch it
- 1:38:03years. So then what's?
- 1:38:04Yeah. Years.
- 1:38:04Hair test. For Pep Boys and.
- 1:38:07They even. Use the hair one for that.
- 1:38:09Yeah, dude. So I went home after doing the
- 1:38:11hair test, which the entire time I'm like messaging my group chat
- 1:38:15like, yo, I think they're gonna, I think I'm fucked.
- 1:38:18Guys, I'm not gonna get a job. Job.
- 1:38:20So I go home. I'm sitting back down on the
- 1:38:22couch. Fucking.
- 1:38:25Reindulging myself. So then, so then.
- 1:38:29Because I'm like, I'm fucked, this is done.
- 1:38:31So then they call me. They're like, hey, so
- 1:38:35unfortunately you tested positive.
- 1:38:38You could come back for another. And then I was like, and then
- 1:38:41they're like, then they're like, do you currently have a medical
- 1:38:45card? I'm like, no.
- 1:38:47And they're like, well, when was the last time you consumed?
- 1:38:49And I'm sitting there. Like holding the bong.
- 1:38:52Holding the bong onto my couch like I'm like like maybe a month
- 1:38:58ago and my roommates are sitting there, I'm like, you know,
- 1:39:02you're so dumb like, and I so yeah, I didn't get the job.
- 1:39:05I can't believe Pep Boys is so strict.
- 1:39:07I I didn't get a job at AutoZone because I I answered this
- 1:39:11question wrong. I'm like.
- 1:39:13Or they were like, they were like a what kind of radiator
- 1:39:16would you get for a 1967 beetle? The fact that they have the
- 1:39:19balls to ask you anything to do with.
- 1:39:22Parts. They asked me that they should.
- 1:39:24Ask the people work. And then I said.
- 1:39:26I don't have been like part number.
- 1:39:28I said I don't really know you're making models now.
- 1:39:30You should have said what's the year making model.
- 1:39:32That's the motherfucker said See, that was a trick question.
- 1:39:35Those were air cooled. You're gonna have people come in
- 1:39:37here and. Ask you that.
- 1:39:39Fuck up, dude. It's like, get the fuck.
- 1:39:42Out. I would have ghosted.
- 1:39:43I mean, like, it's OK, dude, I gave.
- 1:39:45Him The bullshit you're making, model.
- 1:39:46Man, I drove my S13 there that day and almost died multiple
- 1:39:50times on my bald ass tires and I just was.
- 1:39:54Went home and probably I honestly, I probably ended up
- 1:39:56sitting back on the couch. Did I remember?
- 1:40:01I give sometimes. I'll call them and I'll give
- 1:40:03them part numbers because I'm not that dumb.
- 1:40:04I'm not going to call them and ask them to find me something.
- 1:40:06So I do all the work for them. Yeah, I got a part number here.
- 1:40:10Your make model. Yeah, no, I did all that for
- 1:40:12you. I got the part number.
- 1:40:14Just type these numbers in. Please just type these numbers.
- 1:40:16Yeah. What kind of car is it for?
- 1:40:18I'm like, it's fucking not a car that's here, man.
- 1:40:21Just here's the part number bro. Listen here, Okay.
- 1:40:25Well, if you develop a nice restaurant, the OR nice
- 1:40:29restaurant. I'm hungry.
- 1:40:30I'm hungry too. If you develop a nice
- 1:40:32relationship with your part store of choice, I got plenty of
- 1:40:36nice. Always is a store anymore, by
- 1:40:38the way. Yeah, they just went out of
- 1:40:39business, I think. Do they?
- 1:40:40No, no. But here's the thing.
- 1:40:42In my hometown, they. Put up a Pep Boys, but it's
- 1:40:46Service Center. Yeah, that's what they're doing.
- 1:40:48They're changing them all to service, but they.
- 1:40:49Technically, still sell shit in the foyer.
- 1:40:52They had a wholesale department still, but then they just got
- 1:40:54bought out by someone else. Anyway, let's say you get a good
- 1:40:57relationship with them nowadays for some reason, if I'm lucky
- 1:41:02and nobody is there. Like I pray that nobody is there
- 1:41:05anymore, because then when I walk up to the counter, I'll
- 1:41:08just fucking start typing away at the view.
- 1:41:10Just fucking hijacks the computer.
- 1:41:12It's there, bro. It'll take me half the time.
- 1:41:16Then they're typing there. Let me, let me save some.
- 1:41:18Let me possibly save some people's lives right now.
- 1:41:21If you were. If you're a kid that works on
- 1:41:23cars, you know. You know your way around a car.
- 1:41:25You know what a brake rotor is. You know what?
- 1:41:26You know. Fucking I don't know you.
- 1:41:29Shock. You can look up part numbers.
- 1:41:30Yeah, you you have a decent idea how to work on cars and stuff,
- 1:41:33but you don't want to be be a mechanic.
- 1:41:35Go to a car dealership right now.
- 1:41:38A dealership keyword and go apply to be a parts person.
- 1:41:43Why? Because they desperately need
- 1:41:47people with brains in those departments.
- 1:41:49You can see it when you go to Pep Boys.
- 1:41:50You could. You could see it when you go to
- 1:41:52a car dealership and you ask for the parts department.
- 1:41:54If you don't get the manager, you're going to be dealing with
- 1:41:57a complete fucking idiot. And that's why I was valued so
- 1:42:00much when I was at a dealership, because I worked on cars before.
- 1:42:04Well, here most people who have up who work go to work in parts,
- 1:42:08never touched a car, so they don't know anything.
- 1:42:10Isn't that crazy? Cuz okay okay you're.
- 1:42:12At the AutoZone, that's right. Over here there's a new lady
- 1:42:15that started working. Bless her soul.
- 1:42:17Very much new lady, so you know the staff.
- 1:42:19Yeah, I go over there all the time.
- 1:42:20Yeah, it's closest AutoZone. That's why it's on the right
- 1:42:22down the street. That's the AutoZone I was
- 1:42:23talking about, by the way, when I called.
- 1:42:25Yeah, you need. To have that your go to, well,
- 1:42:28let me hear the story. Yeah, Let me hear this.
- 1:42:31The lady? Oh no, she's she's really nice,
- 1:42:32but she's just completely fucking clueless.
- 1:42:34Yeah, and she means well. But it's just like anything,
- 1:42:36anytime I can all like smiles like, hey, is the other guy here
- 1:42:39and I'll just deal with other guy cuz Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 1:42:41that's. But I was just explaining.
- 1:42:42I was like, if anyone's listening right now, it's young,
- 1:42:44doesn't know what they want to do for a career, but they know
- 1:42:46how to like work on a car and stuff, but they don't want to be
- 1:42:49mechanic. I was like, you better go to
- 1:42:50your fucking local dealership and just try to be a parts guy.
- 1:42:53Yes, I was gonna ask you, you worked at a couple dealerships,
- 1:42:55right? Yeah.
- 1:42:56How was the? Experience.
- 1:42:57I know. I've also heard.
- 1:42:58I forget if it was from you or from Justin.
- 1:43:03And I mean this is like years ago.
- 1:43:04I always heard like don't try to make your passion your Yeah,
- 1:43:09that's a that's a typical thing that.
- 1:43:12Yeah. So like, how was your, like, I
- 1:43:15know you worked at, that's how you met Chris, right?
- 1:43:17You guys worked at a Nissan dealership?
- 1:43:19I actually met Chris outside of that because of drifting, but he
- 1:43:22ended up working at one of the dealerships I worked at like
- 1:43:25right after, so I barely missed him.
- 1:43:27Yeah, Bergenfield. Did he?
- 1:43:31Yeah. Is that like the Did you work at
- 1:43:33more than one? Yeah, I worked in pretty much
- 1:43:35every Nissan dealer in Bergen County except for Ramsey.
- 1:43:37Oh, wow. And Oh yeah, Chris worked at
- 1:43:39Ramsey. So between the both of us.
- 1:43:40Yes, missed each other. Yeah, we worked in every.
- 1:43:43If you worked at that Ramsey one, then I would have met you.
- 1:43:46Yeah, I was a regular in that motherfucker.
- 1:43:48Yeah. Well, now that's where we get
- 1:43:49parts from, so we're like tight with them now.
- 1:43:51But when I was working, I I'd never went there.
- 1:43:54Do you? Happen to not ever.
- 1:43:55It's not a manager anymore right there, but ever.
- 1:43:58It was a manager there when Chris was.
- 1:44:00And I love that guy, man. He just reminded me of Suge
- 1:44:02Knight all day. Yeah, he was just a big boss.
- 1:44:04Dude. Like and he had a What's that?
- 1:44:08What's that? What's that Harley?
- 1:44:10That's or. I don't even know if it's a
- 1:44:11Harley, but it's the fucking one with a big Yeah, yeah, it's like
- 1:44:14a bagger, yeah. It's like a Street Glide.
- 1:44:16Rd. Glide, Yeah.
- 1:44:17Something like that. I was like, damn, ever look cool
- 1:44:19as fuck on that thing. The hell.
- 1:44:21But like, yeah, like they need, they need people in there.
- 1:44:25Like my manager would tell me he'd be like you're good at
- 1:44:28this. And that was, this is my first
- 1:44:29parts job. And he said you're good at this
- 1:44:31job because you know how cars work.
- 1:44:33And I was like, because I didn't know the part numbers, right?
- 1:44:35Yeah, yeah, I had a kind of an idea because I I worked at
- 1:44:38Nissan and I was already into this stuff.
- 1:44:41So I already knew because I was because I was selling parts
- 1:44:44before I worked at Nissan, technically.
- 1:44:46So I kind of understood, understood some things about the
- 1:44:50part numbers. Like some Nissan Nerds will know
- 1:44:53like the last five digits usually you could tell what
- 1:44:55cards for. But like, he was like a
- 1:44:59encyclopedia. Like, yeah, Like.
- 1:45:02I didn't know that like little things here and there it's not
- 1:45:04always accurate but and then the first five can tell you usually
- 1:45:07can tell you what kind of part it is but he's like a he was a
- 1:45:11fucking encyclopedia for parts like crazy shit like you'd be
- 1:45:16like yeah I need a water pump for the he's like Oh yeah yeah
- 1:45:18hold on types of part number in for like a fucking water pump
- 1:45:21for an Altima like a 99. I'm like what?
- 1:45:25And he would just like guess he'd take like one guess 2
- 1:45:27guesses. He like, Oh yeah, that's it.
- 1:45:29And yeah, it's in stock. Like dude, he would like quick
- 1:45:33dude, like the the the text would come in and he would have
- 1:45:36their shit like done before, before I could.
- 1:45:39Speaking of in stock, I can think that one of the massive
- 1:45:42benefits not to loop it back to the BRZ, but I feel like we're
- 1:45:45revolving all around David, Bob. Yeah.
- 1:45:47And when I think of David, Bob, I think it's gotta go back to
- 1:45:49that ZN 6 and. All that stuff.
- 1:45:51Car. I'm like, that's David Bob.
- 1:45:53But like, the nice thing about that car, since it's newer at
- 1:45:56AutoZone and shit, are you? Do they carry?
- 1:45:59How? How are they with the support on
- 1:46:01that chassis? Like I said, the first event
- 1:46:04that I drove turboed was special stage.
- 1:46:08And when was that? Like April?
- 1:46:10Yeah, Yeah, earlier this year. Yeah, earlier this year I one of
- 1:46:14my coil packs took a shit and I. Oh yeah.
- 1:46:18I remember you were like, yeah. AutoZone picked one up, came
- 1:46:21back, put it in and went right back on track.
- 1:46:22You know, so that's definitely a cool benefit about.
- 1:46:25Drinking, yeah, that was, that was also like.
- 1:46:27Not a big fan of LS House, but one thing that I thought was
- 1:46:30super cool is I I forget which. I don't know if it was in the
- 1:46:33East Coast bash, but it's some sort of event here where hurt
- 1:46:37was driving and I think his motor blew or something.
- 1:46:41And bro, they went to the AutoZone.
- 1:46:43They picked up like a block and I don't know I could be saying
- 1:46:47whatever the fuck it was. They broke a bunch of shit and
- 1:46:49he literally like they they were talking about how you just go to
- 1:46:51your local fucking store you pick something up, you come back
- 1:46:53and the next day he was ripping. I forget what it was, what
- 1:46:55event. I'm probably fucking something
- 1:46:57up. It was.
- 1:46:57Something along the lines that was something crazy.
- 1:46:59Which is sick because you think about any of the other motors.
- 1:47:03I feel like someone bought a cylinder head once.
- 1:47:02Anything you break, it's like, fuck, I gotta.
- 1:47:05Maybe. Maybe it was.
- 1:47:06I don't know if it was the same story, but I do remember that
- 1:47:08with a V8 I think someone got a. Cylinder I know something
- 1:47:10double. It sounds like a massive pro on
- 1:47:13my list, but it's Yeah, it's crazy that you can just.
- 1:47:16Yeah, maybe it wasn't Eat. I don't know why I'm saying Eat
- 1:47:17Town. I don't think he's ever driven
- 1:47:18over here. He has.
- 1:47:21Whatever, what? Pretty much Long story short,
- 1:47:22I'm trying to say someone had a V8.
- 1:47:24They were driving somewhere and a bunch of shit broke and they.
- 1:47:27Literally went to their local AutoZone.
- 1:47:28It was like 24 hour too and they picked up everything they
- 1:47:31needed. She swapped and fixed everything
- 1:47:34and next day they were right back on.
- 1:47:35Track, somebody in the chat right now said yeah, it was a
- 1:47:37fully assembled LS cylinder head.
- 1:47:39Yeah, there you go. What's the cylinder head?
- 1:47:40Yeah, somehow I got that right there.
- 1:47:43You go. How fucking crazy is that?
- 1:47:45Holy. Meanwhile, like anything else,
- 1:47:46like you break something, it's like, well, guess I gotta pack
- 1:47:49it up for the day. What was something that you were
- 1:47:51able to get that you were surprised?
- 1:47:53Can you name something? So I can't.
- 1:47:54You know why I can't name anything?
- 1:47:55Because my car never breaks. Did I used to.
- 1:48:00I'm not. I'm not a mean guy at all.
- 1:48:01So like, I'll say everything laughing.
- 1:48:02But like I literally used to walk around before like friends
- 1:48:04that were I always I'll walk over and be like, oh like if
- 1:48:07someone crashes or something breaks, I'll walk up like, oh,
- 1:48:08you guys need anything? We got tools, whatever.
- 1:48:10But I'll always be like if you had a BRZ or an FRS, you
- 1:48:12wouldn't be fucking here right now.
- 1:48:13I. Say that shit and then they tell
- 1:48:15you that engine's garbage and what do you say to that?
- 1:48:18Mine's turbo now it's fun so. Yeah.
- 1:48:20But like what did I do that? Great.
- 1:48:22I was telling Carl. I was telling Carl we were
- 1:48:23outside. You know how long I've had my
- 1:48:24car. Now I'm going on my 10 years.
- 1:48:26I'm going on nine years now. Yeah, with the same exact.
- 1:48:29Same engine. Well, I asked him.
- 1:48:30Ask him how long it took took to Turbo.
- 1:48:32Yeah, that's another thing. I It was so reliable.
- 1:48:35Kit you have and everything. Yeah, so we'll get into that
- 1:48:37too. But like I've had the car was so
- 1:48:39reliable, I drove out to to final bout in that car twice.
- 1:48:45I remember the times. With Kasha.
- 1:48:48With everyone? Yeah, that's to me.
- 1:48:51So you have so crazy. We drove, We drove together out
- 1:48:54there and we drove. One of our friends flew in and
- 1:48:56we drove back with three people in the car, three people in that
- 1:48:58thing and it's 3 slam. Three people in the car, 8
- 1:49:01degrees of camber front and rear, all the way back.
- 1:49:04Did you hit a deer or something? Yeah, so.
- 1:49:06That. Was what?
- 1:49:10I don't know. How you know that?
- 1:49:11But we do. You know, so guys, I remember
- 1:49:13when he came back and they were telling all these.
- 1:49:15So we. I'm trying to think of the full
- 1:49:18what's crazy so I didn't know how to paint or I wasn't really
- 1:49:20that good at body work either back then.
- 1:49:22But we I knew I was driving out to that so I at least wanted to
- 1:49:26paint whatever I had of the kid. It was the front bumper sides
- 1:49:29great so it wasn't that nice but it was close enough.
- 1:49:30So couple boys got together and Skyler, he got some Skyler, they
- 1:49:35got out the the wagon. We are at his so.
- 1:49:39I was shout out Skyler. Yeah, Skyler is the man.
- 1:49:41So I was really close with him. So I spent a lot of time in that
- 1:49:43garage down there and I remember that.
- 1:49:45Yeah. And so he painted that.
- 1:49:50So my friend Kevin Canella, he helped me do all the the body
- 1:49:54work and clean it up. And I stayed at skies and it was
- 1:49:57the same day that he finished his his wagon.
- 1:50:00So I was super head for him and I was just like he he was super
- 1:50:03head to finish his car. So we literally were there.
- 1:50:05It's like 3:00 in the morning, 4:00 in the morning, finishing
- 1:50:08his car so he could pull it out and drive it out of the garage
- 1:50:10under its own power. And then at that point, once it
- 1:50:12finally came out, we started prepping the garage up to paint
- 1:50:14my parts. So dude, I literally have a snap
- 1:50:17saved of us sitting outside of his garage mixing paint at 6:00
- 1:50:20in the morning to paint, to paint the front bumper and side
- 1:50:23skirts for for me to have for that for the next weekend to
- 1:50:26drive out to final bout. I've been there.
- 1:50:29Yeah. Event too I had, I had, I had
- 1:50:32work at like I think 10:00 that day and I literally went
- 1:50:35straight from his. I went, we painted the stuff, we
- 1:50:37finished everything up. He went to sleep.
- 1:50:38I drove home, changed and went straight to work.
- 1:50:40But. What was I getting?
- 1:50:42Oh yeah, so everything was freshly painted.
- 1:50:44Put it on the car. I drove out there, everything.
- 1:50:47That was when it was like. A lighter blue.
- 1:50:50No, that was that was before that.
- 1:50:51So it was like the first iteration of the front bumper
- 1:50:55and side skirts. I think I had a black Fender on
- 1:50:58the car then and I didn't have a I had a rear bumper, but it was
- 1:51:01a stock bumper. And so yeah, we drove out there
- 1:51:03pretty much no problem. The one only thing that sucked
- 1:51:06was when we pulled into it was me and Kasha driving and we left
- 1:51:09super late. I also fucked up where I was
- 1:51:12fitting wheels, like right before we left too.
- 1:51:14So I actually fell asleep. I took a nap.
- 1:51:16I kind of gave up on everything, and she showed up at my house
- 1:51:18with her friend and they were like cutting stuff up, making
- 1:51:20stuff work just so we could drive out.
- 1:51:22So we finished that stuff out, whatever by.
- 1:51:24Her and her friend. Her and our friend Canella,
- 1:51:27yeah. We're working on the car.
- 1:51:29So, so she knew. While you weren't happy, she
- 1:51:31knew so. Like I said I yeah dude she's
- 1:51:33the I have I have so much to say about her She's literally the
- 1:51:37fuck, even with like the body kid stuff.
- 1:51:39I'm gonna get into a change Let's so I don't I don't forget
- 1:51:41she's been there the entire. So we'll go back to the body kit
- 1:51:44stuff and how she helped out, but go back to this.
- 1:51:46So yeah, she I gave up. I was like super mad because the
- 1:51:48wheels weren't fitting and stuff.
- 1:51:49So I went to sleep and she pulled up to my house, brought
- 1:51:52my friend to, she's like, hey, listen, we got to finish the
- 1:51:53stuff, like let's do it together.
- 1:51:54So literally the two of them made the wheels fit, did all
- 1:51:56that stuff. Wow.
- 1:51:58So finally, so I woke up my nap the the car is done.
- 1:52:00We're ready to go. We ended up leaving, and the
- 1:52:03drive there wasn't bad. The one thing that got fucked up
- 1:52:06was we pulled into a random hotel at probably like 2 or 3:00
- 1:52:09in the morning. I'm looking at my phone, so I
- 1:52:10know they're texting. I don't wanna miss any, like,
- 1:52:12important stuff, but they're gonna give you reminders like,
- 1:52:16yeah. Yeah, I was like I was.
- 1:52:17I was wrong. I was wrong.
- 1:52:19That if we ever do this again, I gotta bring her cuz she knows so
- 1:52:21much. She's down for.
- 1:52:22Her memory is so fucking good. She remembers so much shit.
- 1:52:24I don't remember anything. But we'll have you, her and a
- 1:52:27young Dave. Yes, please.
- 1:52:29Let's do. I know they're listening right
- 1:52:30now. Please, let's make that happen
- 1:52:31that you fucking bring Mike too. Yeah, honestly.
- 1:52:34Yeah, so we can roast him well. Yeah, the party dude.
- 1:52:36He's with the Bobs do. You know that he's been driving.
- 1:52:39He drifts. By the way.
- 1:52:40Have you? Seen Have you guys seen his
- 1:52:41front tires on his 350? How bad?
- 1:52:43His front tires on his 350 have been showing cords for four
- 1:52:46months and he got a bike so he doesn't drive it around as.
- 1:52:49Much. But he's still he's still drives
- 1:52:53that car. And I literally found him 4
- 1:52:55tires for sale for 100 bucks. Some random lady was selling
- 1:52:58them. They had like 70% tread left.
- 1:53:00Literally almost. Almost.
- 1:53:01Brand new tires He got him. Not only were they cheap, it was
- 1:53:044 tires for 100 bucks. He got her down to 70 bucks and
- 1:53:07he still hasn't went and picked them up.
- 1:53:09Mike. And he's driving on bald front
- 1:53:10tires showing cores. Mike, you're a bum.
- 1:53:13Mike doesn't care cuz have you seen the movie Into the Wild or
- 1:53:16read the book. Mike you're the you're the main
- 1:53:19character into the wild. Look it up.
- 1:53:21Look up that movie. Just don't die.
- 1:53:23I don't want you to look at that movie because then you're gonna
- 1:53:25do more crazy, dumb shit. But look it up.
- 1:53:27That's. Him and Paul are they're a pair,
- 1:53:31man. Let me tell you, they're a good
- 1:53:32fucking time. Yeah, a lot of fun anyway, but
- 1:53:35so yeah. So put your car together.
- 1:53:37Yeah, so we drove out. Drive it.
- 1:53:37So the only thing I got fucked up on the way out there was we
- 1:53:40pulled into a rest. Not a rest stop.
- 1:53:42A hotel. Probably like 2 o'clock 3:00 in
- 1:53:44the morning because she was sleeping past.
- 1:53:46Passenger Princess. Typical.
- 1:53:48And I she she drives manual, so I gotta give her props.
- 1:53:52She does drive my car every once in a while, but it was middle of
- 1:53:54the night. She wears glasses and contacts,
- 1:53:56so driving at night sucks. Anyway, it doesn't matter.
- 1:53:58Pull into a parking lot, there's a huge fucking crater that I
- 1:54:02didn't see. I fell and I drove into it.
- 1:54:04So, like, cracked the bumper and stuff.
- 1:54:05It was still in one piece. It wasn't bad, but freshly out
- 1:54:07of paint, so that sucked. Whatever.
- 1:54:09Drive all the way out there. No problems.
- 1:54:10We're there. Everything's good.
- 1:54:12Our friend Canella flies in. We pick him up.
- 1:54:14He hung out with us the whole time.
- 1:54:16That's another story. That was the first time I ever
- 1:54:18met Diego, and that was the first time I met Rich and
- 1:54:22Damian. And from us meeting the first
- 1:54:24time that night ended up going till like 3:00 or 4:00 in the
- 1:54:27morning at a random fucking bar. We got super drunk and just.
- 1:54:31That's another whole story in itself.
- 1:54:32Anyway, so driving back, Speaking of the dear thing, so
- 1:54:35we finally the weekend's over. Everything's done.
- 1:54:38We packed the car up. We're driving back, the three of
- 1:54:39us. I made sure to put the seats in
- 1:54:40the back before we left. I put the seats in the back.
- 1:54:42I was just like, yeah, why you putting them in?
- 1:54:43I was like, oh, just in case, you never know, our friend was
- 1:54:45flying in. I didn't tell her as like I was
- 1:54:47like, not, not, not like the bad way, not like the bad way, but a
- 1:54:50surpriser like, oh, like not only are we going together, but
- 1:54:52like, our friends coming too. So we're driving back.
- 1:54:55I have like the first shift our friend.
- 1:54:57We switch over, our friend Canelo is driving and literally
- 1:54:59within like 10 minutes of being on the road, a bird flies into
- 1:55:02the windshield, like just straight and just hits the
- 1:55:04windshield and just like flies up.
- 1:55:05We're like, huh, that was really fucking weird.
- 1:55:08Not even 10 minutes later he runs over like like a possum or
- 1:55:10something running across the road.
- 1:55:12Like what the fuck is going on? What state is this in?
- 1:55:14This is right outside of. This is still in Wisconsin.
- 1:55:18This is like a few like a little bit outside of and then drive
- 1:55:21the car and then yeah, he's driving.
- 1:55:22He's driving and then he also hit like a dead deer on the
- 1:55:25side. Oh my God, Canelo, you're not.
- 1:55:27Driving my car bro. He hit it pretty hard and we we
- 1:55:32pull over. We're like walking around
- 1:55:33laughing and like recording a video and it's just like blood
- 1:55:35splattered all over the bottom of the bumper.
- 1:55:37It's like split like this. The whole radiator's covered in
- 1:55:41blood and we we're like fucking whatever.
- 1:55:44The car's fine, it's running. And we drove all the way back
- 1:55:47home. And once we got back home and I
- 1:55:48put it like I jacked it up, I was looking under it, we ran
- 1:55:51over a spot of the deal where it's antler fell off and got.
- 1:55:54Like lodged inside where the tow hook area thing is too.
- 1:55:57And we literally drove with that.
- 1:55:58Like deer antler stuck on my car the entire fucking way home.
- 1:56:01That's pretty sick. Dude, it's crazy.
- 1:56:03Bro all the way. What the fuck?
- 1:56:05It is crazy you hit all three of those animals in.
- 1:56:08Within 30 minutes of leaving. Uh, Shawn, Oh.
- 1:56:11I want to fucking. I want to.
- 1:56:12Leave her up by the time. By the time we got the deal, we
- 1:56:15pulled over lap like, this is a good idea.
- 1:56:17Yeah, I feel like maybe we should stay another night.
- 1:56:20I don't know where we're going, dude.
- 1:56:21What hit so much? I've learned my lesson.
- 1:56:23I don't know if how often you guys drive on the New Jersey
- 1:56:26Turnpike. A lot.
- 1:56:27Stay the fuck off the trucks and buses lane.
- 1:56:30Oh yeah. I have hit so much shit on
- 1:56:33there. Fuck, that's the only side I go
- 1:56:35on. And I know Chris goes usually.
- 1:56:37I usually only go there too because you have you have the
- 1:56:40the least. Amount of traffic over there?
- 1:56:42Yep. Yep, Frankie's like, don't tell
- 1:56:43anybody after we just got done with the gatekeeping trucks
- 1:56:47alone. Yeah, and.
- 1:56:49Sequoia. I've hit a I hit a truck tire
- 1:56:52there once that I like half. I didn't blow a part of bumper,
- 1:56:54but I fucked it up pretty bad. There's another time where I ran
- 1:56:57over like it was like a cut piece of a beam, where it's
- 1:56:59probably like maybe like I still have it in Skyler's garage.
- 1:57:02Actually. Funny enough, it it's like 6
- 1:57:05inches tall, like 4 inches wide and then like.
- 1:57:09I don't know. It was fucking big.
- 1:57:10And I ran over in a way where it like threw it up into my wheel
- 1:57:13well and it stuck between the frame rail and the wheel.
- 1:57:16So my wheel locked up like this, I think I remember hearing.
- 1:57:18It like, threw me off into the shoulder.
- 1:57:20Yeah, that was sketchy. Another time, I don't know what
- 1:57:23sketchy. That was that was sounds
- 1:57:25horrible. Dude, another time, I don't know
- 1:57:27what I hit, but right as we were leaving cautious House, we
- 1:57:30hopped onto the Turnpike. We're driving.
- 1:57:32And literally not even like 5 minutes into driving.
- 1:57:35I hit something, but I hit it so hard when I literally felt like
- 1:57:38debris and like gravel off the road, like fly onto my legs
- 1:57:41somehow from the wheel well and like, oh fuck, that didn't sound
- 1:57:45good. So we pull over, I get into the
- 1:57:47shoulder and I just turned the car off.
- 1:57:49I'm looking at her, she said. What the fuck is that?
- 1:57:50Oh my God, the car is still driving, I guess.
- 1:57:53So I get out, I'm looking around.
- 1:57:54The bumper's in one piece. Nothing flew off.
- 1:57:56I don't see anything like, all right, I guess we're fine.
- 1:57:57And I walk over to the door to get in.
- 1:57:59I open the door. I'm like.
- 1:58:00I want to look under one more time.
- 1:58:01I look under the car. This fucking oil everywhere,
- 1:58:03dude. I don't know.
- 1:58:05I don't know what I ran over, but not only blew that engine.
- 1:58:07Not only did it go straight through the header, it went
- 1:58:10straight through the oil pan too and I don't know how.
- 1:58:13I guess from all the pressure, like held up inside.
- 1:58:15We're like, at first when I pulled over, it didn't all come
- 1:58:17out and I literally opened the door to hop in.
- 1:58:18I was like, I'm going to look one more time.
- 1:58:20I look under this fucking oil everywhere.
- 1:58:22Weren't driving home that time. Oh dude, it got so that time.
- 1:58:25I already had the trailer by then.
- 1:58:26I called a friend to go pick up the trailer.
- 1:58:29I was waiting for you to tell me you did the oil pan on the side
- 1:58:30of. That no.
- 1:58:32Yeah, we actually made a skid. I decided to make my own oil
- 1:58:35pan. It was just.
- 1:58:37A little bit of JV Well, no, we So that was a little fucked too,
- 1:58:40cuz a friend went to go pick up the trailer.
- 1:58:43One of our other friends put on a new, like kind of, you know
- 1:58:48how there's the locks that you put in, but there's also, like
- 1:58:50the ones that go on top, the actual hitch.
- 1:58:52It like goes inside and you like, block it.
- 1:59:17Are only allowed on that. So we had one of those and our
- 1:58:55friend didn't have the key. I was like, dude, I don't, I was
- 1:58:57like, dude, I don't give a shit. I was like, do whatever you have
- 1:58:59to do. Yeah, he had an angle ground in
- 1:59:00his car and you cut it right off.
- 1:59:02And he didn't realize this, but he put the trailer on, drove all
- 1:59:05the way to pick us up. First of all is on the Turnpike.
- 1:59:07Apparently you're not allowed to have trailers on the term or
- 1:59:10you're not allowed to pick up cars.
- 1:59:11There's some, there's some rule or something like that where
- 1:59:14like there's only there's certified.
- 1:59:18So we did that. We had no idea, thankfully,
- 1:59:20like, we ain't get in trouble for that.
- 1:59:21But he pulled up. You know.
- 1:59:23We put the truck, he pulls the truck in front and there's I
- 1:59:26think four of us. So we go, we push the car all
- 1:59:28the way up. It hits the trailer and finally
- 1:59:30gets up. We get it up, whatever.
- 1:59:32And I pull the E brake. I'm like strapping it down and
- 1:59:34stuff. I look.
- 1:59:35Turns out the ball that he had on his hitch was a different
- 1:59:38size than windows on the trailer, and while we pushed it
- 1:59:41up, it popped it. Popped off I.
- 1:59:43Went straight fucking back into that dude.
- 1:59:44It was like a brand new, like no 2018-2019 GMC.
- 1:59:50Just like this is completely just stand over their arms
- 1:59:53around her shoulder? No.
- 1:59:54No, no, no. No, no.
- 1:59:55Wait. Wait.
- 1:59:56Wait. Wait.
- 1:59:56Wait. You mean oh cuz it went.
- 1:59:58Yeah, cuz we pushed the car up and when it hit the bottom of
- 2:00:00the trailer it gave it enough like Ohm for it, like pushed it
- 2:00:03up and then when the car going forward up and it hit the bumper
- 2:00:06and the tailgate and stuff. Yeah, I was.
- 2:00:08I probably would have paid less to get a tow truck to come out
- 2:00:11and get me. That paid my friend to get.
- 2:00:12Something old truck it has. A brand new fucking truck.
- 2:00:15Trunk, skin. Glass.
- 2:00:18They break the glass. No, they break the glass.
- 2:00:20OK, but God damn well that's good that you have a trailer.
- 2:00:24Now, Speaking of breaking glass, we I remember one of the.
- 2:00:30Second or third club loose events I drove.
- 2:00:32One of the the tow trucks that they had was a brand new FJ
- 2:00:36Cruiser. I don't know who's it was or how
- 2:00:37this happened. Cruiser What the FJ Cruiser like
- 2:00:39one of the workers trucks? Yeah, yeah, the people that are
- 2:00:42there, What did you do to this poor man?
- 2:00:43Today I didn't do it. I didn't do.
- 2:00:46It but I'm sitting in Grid and I see that they pick up someone I
- 2:00:49guess their car broke they're pulling around whatever and they
- 2:00:51pull up right next to me and Grid I see the guys car pulls up
- 2:00:55right next. We look at each other kind of
- 2:00:56just like naughty, like laughs and.
- 2:00:59Whoever FJ Cruiser or whoever was driving it, they didn't pull
- 2:01:02up to let the the tension, the thing tension.
- 2:01:04They just went to the rip and as they stepped on it they started
- 2:01:08moving. The toe hitch ripped out of the
- 2:01:11IT was an S13 I think it ripped out of the front of the car and
- 2:01:14it went straight through the back.
- 2:01:15Which field my. God, I'm sorry.
- 2:01:17I just spit on you and I was sitting next to the kid and I
- 2:01:20literally saw you. It's better replied as he's
- 2:01:24like. He.
- 2:01:25Died. Yeah, literally.
- 2:01:27It was a was a. Video of 1 where it's it was
- 2:01:29like more they not like a drifting recovery but like an
- 2:01:32off road recovery and that is you don't do that.
- 2:01:36There's a specific strap. In a specific car.
- 2:01:40Police probably that you're supposed to do that from and
- 2:01:42well, you got to watch what you're doing when you're tying
- 2:01:44that shit down because that should hits you with.
- 2:01:47And not only not only that you don't know whose car.
- 2:01:49You're pulling too. You have no idea how they put
- 2:01:51that shit on there, what they did, Yee.
- 2:01:53I mean, I think about that all the time.
- 2:01:54When I see people like fixing their car, like hooking a
- 2:01:57fucking thing to a tree and like strapping it, I'm like, I hope
- 2:02:01you know what you're doing. I don't know if we're that strap
- 2:02:03snaps. I don't know if you remember
- 2:02:05when we did that private day when we're recording stuff for
- 2:02:06the kit. Oh, I remember.
- 2:02:07And I ended up in the cell. First of all, I made.
- 2:02:10I made the biggest fucking doofus idiot out of myself.
- 2:02:14I barely knew how to fucking drift.
- 2:02:15We went to. We were talking about this
- 2:02:16earlier. Oh my God, because Ethan was
- 2:02:18talking about. It There's two things I feel
- 2:02:20dumb about that Drift day and that Christmas tree video that
- 2:02:22me and, uh, he's recorded. Oh, we don't care about that.
- 2:02:25I know, but let's just like watching that video back and
- 2:02:27just seeing how shitty the car is.
- 2:02:29And like the wheels I had in the back were like.
- 2:02:31Yeah, yeah, some bullshit wheels.
- 2:02:32Super square tires. Nothing fit.
- 2:02:34Just stupid. Anyway.
- 2:02:36But maybe I was talking to Malcolm about it.
- 2:02:38I was like, yeah, I have this weird thing where I just think
- 2:02:40everyone can drift. Yeah, like, no matter what,
- 2:02:42dude. I had no idea what I was like.
- 2:02:44I had no idea if you, even I never drifted with you.
- 2:02:51I mean, like, I knew no. I never had any experience with
- 2:02:49you. Yeah.
- 2:02:49And I was just like Dave. Yeah, he.
- 2:02:52So I knew how to drift. I just wasn't.
- 2:02:55Wait. Wait, explain what was going on.
- 2:02:57A little bit of was. This a video.
- 2:02:58This was when we had the first kit come out and I got the car
- 2:03:03painted I think. And it was when it was the light
- 2:03:05blue it. Was like, yeah, that's what I
- 2:03:06remember with the goal wheels and we were like, we should do a
- 2:03:08video for it. For the body for the kit.
- 2:03:10Okay, good idea we. Went to E Town to record it and
- 2:03:13we went to E Town. That was right when they
- 2:03:15finished the the stadium track, yeah.
- 2:03:18So. So I've never done third Gear
- 2:03:20fucking entries, especially on that fucking big ass track.
- 2:03:23So I was like you got it. He's like, yeah, you got.
- 2:03:26I was like, I don't know, man. He's like, no, no, no, just it's
- 2:03:29not that big of a deal. Just figure it out because we're
- 2:03:30it's not like you're trying to. We're just trying to make.
- 2:03:32Just a couple clips, yeah. Yeah.
- 2:03:33So the first lap was like, OK, I like, initiated, straightened
- 2:03:38out through it again like I was OK Second lap was OK too.
- 2:03:41The reason we're there is to record a video to show off this
- 2:03:44kit dude. Oh no. 3rd fucking lap I go to
- 2:03:47initiate my front tires lock up and I don't know if it's still
- 2:03:49the same way now, but before the way it was.
- 2:03:52The grass sections where fucking dips, dude.
- 2:03:54Danny still has picture screenshots from the video.
- 2:03:57From that, I went off, I initiated, I locked up the front
- 2:04:01and I went off and I dropped down into the grass and popped
- 2:04:04off. Dude, my car caught air.
- 2:04:05It's like this fucking high. Danny still has screenshots from
- 2:04:07the video of me, like I do kind of remember that.
- 2:04:10I bet you were probably still on the fucking gas and you were
- 2:04:13like, yeah. But the one of me?
- 2:04:14The one I remember was when we went to the truck.
- 2:04:17So yeah, so it gets worse. So that happened where it gets
- 2:04:19way worse. So that happens.
- 2:04:21And I. Pull over.
- 2:04:22I feel like it. Did I lookout.
- 2:04:23We're like looking at the car, like, all right, well, like, it
- 2:04:25jumped, but like the front bumper cracked a little bit, but
- 2:04:28it wasn't that bad like I seen in video.
- 2:04:29Yeah, it's OK. We'll just take shots a little
- 2:04:31further from the other side. It's fine.
- 2:04:33It's not that big of a deal. I had a minivan at the time
- 2:04:34where the door opened. Yeah, so.
- 2:04:36You had a minivan. My mom's for a handicap
- 2:04:39situation, so we had the minivan.
- 2:04:41We opened the doors like Danny, you can sit right here on the
- 2:04:43side and film out of this. It's sick.
- 2:04:45So that was at the the, the full track, the road course.
- 2:04:52Stadium track, Yeah, that whole story was.
- 2:04:54At the. That was at stadium.
- 2:04:55So then afterwards, all right. Well, we still have like an
- 2:04:57hour. Like let's go to the other track
- 2:05:00on the main road course and let's record some stuff over
- 2:05:03there. Yeah, fucking why now?
- 2:05:04Let's go. So that goes, OK, not ideal, not
- 2:05:07the best, but kind of making it happen.
- 2:05:09Well, there was more stuff. So yeah, doing little stuff,
- 2:05:11whatever. And then end of the day, they're
- 2:05:14like I do a lap. And then I come back to set up
- 2:05:19and I see they're on the other side.
- 2:05:20So they're all in the minivan and they're looping back around
- 2:05:23to come back. So it's all right, sick.
- 2:05:25I'll start going now. So when I initiate, we start
- 2:05:28coming around, we'll both kind of lead up in the same spot.
- 2:05:31It was a good idea it. Was a great idea, but I fucking
- 2:05:34didn't know what I was doing. So I I I went down, I initiated
- 2:05:37first turn, I go up the hill and instead of transitioning, same
- 2:05:40thing. My front brakes locked up and
- 2:05:42dude, I don't know if you know on second turn on the left side,
- 2:05:45it's like a mound and a hill that goes up and it's all tires.
- 2:05:48And shit. That dude.
- 2:05:49I went fucking straight into it and straight up into the tires.
- 2:05:53We called the Futago line Drone strike, dude.
- 2:05:57Futago Line Drone strike. Thankfully, Danny was already.
- 2:06:01Recording cuz they were on the complete opposite side of the
- 2:06:03track. Yes, for some reason he was
- 2:06:05recording and you literally see the car going, all of a sudden
- 2:06:08it goes off frame and then he goes back and it's just a huge
- 2:06:11cloud of dirt and literally drone strike.
- 2:06:14Cars like face. We got to post that up.
- 2:06:18Please don't. I know post it.
- 2:06:20We need to know something from that it.
- 2:06:22Was such a it was a long time ago.
- 2:06:24And it's it's whatever you. That's.
- 2:06:25Got. To be able to we're in the mini
- 2:06:28the Chicago line drone strike incident.
- 2:06:31So we're in the minivan, right? Picture the show and we're
- 2:06:33filming it. And like you obviously like we
- 2:06:36had, I think we had walkie talkies didn't.
- 2:06:37Maybe, But we're filming it and like, so I'm driving.
- 2:06:40So Dan, Danny's in the back and you see you can't hear anything
- 2:06:43because it's not only one you just see.
- 2:06:47Like a drone striker, literally. And I was like, what happened?
- 2:06:50What happened? Danny said he's driving nothing
- 2:06:52good, Nothing good. Yeah, and he's just like, he
- 2:06:56went off and I look behind you, just smoke in the like fucking
- 2:06:59dirt in there. It literally looked like we're
- 2:07:01in a war zone or some shit. When you said the tire while I
- 2:07:04was picturing and then you said drone strike, I was picturing
- 2:07:06literally because there are a lot of tires.
- 2:07:09Yeah, yeah. On that.
- 2:07:10No, it could have been way. Downhill.
- 2:07:11It could have been way when you said drone strike.
- 2:07:13I was picturing literally like, all of these tires for some
- 2:07:17reason. Yeah, yeah.
- 2:07:18Flying up into the. No, it was me flying into the
- 2:07:20tires felt that way, but it didn't.
- 2:07:22It didn't. The reason I brought this up, it
- 2:07:23reminded me was because you said something about like towing and
- 2:07:27we had the car, the car was up, I was trying to reverse, we're
- 2:07:29trying to push. It wasn't working and we decided
- 2:07:31to pull it and I had a Cusco rear strut like brace thing.
- 2:07:35No. I didn't want to take the kid
- 2:07:38off and also was like in the ground, so I didn't want to like
- 2:07:40risk. Yeah, whatever.
- 2:07:41I was like, yeah, just throw it around there, started pulling.
- 2:07:43That was the struck. I went from this so fucking
- 2:07:46like. That would be worth for me, for
- 2:07:48my day. That was when it was ruined.
- 2:07:50I. Was like who's goes struck bar
- 2:07:52just got bent. Thankfully it didn't bend
- 2:07:54anything else. Those things are like thin
- 2:07:55enough for like only that bent where like the mounts around the
- 2:07:58bent and nothing at like the strut towers and get pulled in.
- 2:08:00It makes you wonder, though. Yeah, exactly.
- 2:08:02I mean, I'm sure it's nothing doing anything.
- 2:08:04It probably does something cuz like it's it's straight.
- 2:08:07I don't know anything about physics or science, but I'm
- 2:08:09sure. With it being pushed out, it
- 2:08:12doesn't have to be that strong, you know?
- 2:08:13Yeah, Just like having some sort of pressure there make you
- 2:08:15wonder. Though there was there was one
- 2:08:17strut brace in my opinion where I feel like you could tow it
- 2:08:20from and it's when it's a Honda and it's that X3 piece.
- 2:08:23No, the one I had like a mountain.
- 2:08:25But I had this one in the back that looked literally like a
- 2:08:28fucking jungle gym. Yeah, it was like an X tried
- 2:08:31out. I think it was called Miracle
- 2:08:32Crossbars. Yeah, Miracle.
- 2:08:33We're, uh, so the reason I was looking at my phone going
- 2:08:36through stuff. I've realized, and I found out
- 2:08:38through other people. I don't know why, I don't know
- 2:08:40why. I mean, I tried my best, but
- 2:08:42these kits are half fucking indestructible.
- 2:08:45I went into that tire wall and I'm gonna show Frankie 1st and
- 2:08:48this was the first batch, right, dude?
- 2:08:50Yeah, I mean, all of them are held up just as well, but I
- 2:08:53crashed into a thing of at least fucking tire wall.
- 2:08:56Yeah, and I'll pass it around to you guys too.
- 2:08:57And literally. You're.
- 2:09:00Not going to have to. It's not like a bumper that.
- 2:09:02Exploded like typical fiberglass show where like it explodes and
- 2:09:05goes to a million pieces. That's literally just like
- 2:09:07cracked in a few spots. I like it like this.
- 2:09:08This looks way better than me. Yeah, it looks like you actually
- 2:09:11drove. You get.
- 2:09:11To see it, yeah, I get. Dude.
- 2:09:13Yeah, literally just pulled it off and fucking pull in one
- 2:09:15piece. I yeah, I remember that.
- 2:09:17I remember standing right there, like putting the car back
- 2:09:20together. Yeah, we're like seeing.
- 2:09:21That kit still though, it just still.
- 2:09:23I like it. I don't know.
- 2:09:25I've got. I like.
- 2:09:25So many. That's a good kit.
- 2:09:27I've gotten so many pictures. From people that I know, one kid
- 2:09:30down in I think Texas got rear-ended and like his whole
- 2:09:34entire part of his car got smashed in, but the bumper's
- 2:09:36literally still in like one piece and shit.
- 2:09:38I remember when we were down at Spirit when Spirit still
- 2:09:42existed. Fucking rip.
- 2:09:44But I had a lap where I hit something and my bumper caught.
- 2:09:51And I heard it scraping. I was like, oh I probably got
- 2:09:53knocked off and whatever dude. I pull over.
- 2:09:54I hop out the car and a fiberglass bumper 1 part's on
- 2:09:57like this. And the other part, the top part
- 2:09:59that goes on the the wheel well is like this.
- 2:10:02I'm dragging A fiberglass bumper like like like KVD.
- 2:10:05Yeah, like literally like KVD. I drove all the way off off
- 2:10:08track onto the side like that. Do you sell?
- 2:10:10Any is getting an FRS done? I had another another thing,
- 2:10:14stupid me, where I I was parking and like I was parallel parking
- 2:10:18and I heard the bumper catch. So I pulled up a little bit and
- 2:10:20I heard. Like a loud ribs it.
- 2:10:22Dude, I hopped out. I looked at it and same thing.
- 2:10:24Literally the bumpers like this, everything still mounted.
- 2:10:26So it's not cracking. I've bent trunks if I didn't
- 2:10:29drive my car here today because one of the my.
- 2:10:33The what's it called? The gasket on my wastegate blew
- 2:10:36off or whatever, so I'm waiting for turbo problems now.
- 2:10:39Yeah, but big turbo gas. I I could show you guys, my
- 2:10:42trunk literally has like bends in it from the kit getting like
- 2:10:45launched off and stuff. I've broken tail lights from
- 2:10:47that. I've ripped mounts like those
- 2:10:48those. Where are you making this out?
- 2:10:50Of those plastic mounts steel, those plastic mounts that not
- 2:10:55mounts with the plastic like clips that go in that are
- 2:10:57threaded, those will literally rip out of the body and like
- 2:11:00mushroom the the metal before. Or the the.
- 2:11:03The kit crack. Breaks, dude, it's.
- 2:11:05Fucking insane. You think it's because of a
- 2:11:07higher quality and Made in America type?
- 2:11:09So quality is what? So I've realized.
- 2:11:13I started saying before, I don't want to talk down on origins.
- 2:11:15Origins, obviously awesome. But the stuff that they make
- 2:11:17isn't the best. I I think I might have a picture
- 2:11:20on my phone, but like, we literally cut off a piece of
- 2:11:22Tom's side skirts to make them fit.
- 2:11:24And it's like maybe the part that I cut off was like maybe
- 2:11:2825% fiberglass or this was all gel coat.
- 2:11:31It's super thin stuff. So this stuff, it's thick.
- 2:11:34And not only is it thick, but it's also like it has bends.
- 2:11:39So for example, the part that goes around the truck that never
- 2:11:41breaks, it has like a bunch of ridges and then once it gets to
- 2:11:44the top it flattens out and it also goes back.
- 2:11:46So I feel like with all those bends and all those extra spots,
- 2:11:49yeah, plus like the thick material.
- 2:11:50It just sit a little bit. Yeah, yeah, yeah, like I've
- 2:11:52literally, I've bent my trunk, like the edges of it coming up
- 2:11:55for my bumper, flying on my car. I've feel like it does have the
- 2:11:58thickness too. Though thickness but also like I
- 2:12:00said I think I've realized edges where there's a couple edges in
- 2:12:03like 1 spot it like gives it more of a like thick if you have
- 2:12:06something and it's like it has a couple bends in it if you try to
- 2:12:08be stronger. Yeah, it just has more.
- 2:12:11So have you, have you worked with BN Sports?
- 2:12:15I mean, that would probably be the best Japanese Arrow kit I
- 2:12:17could. Think I have.
- 2:12:18I've fixed 1BN kit and it was James's rear bumper.
- 2:12:24I think it's split. I fixed his and.
- 2:12:28It's close. It's funny because when I first
- 2:12:30started doing the kids stuff I remember asking you when I
- 2:12:32brought the first ones here is like what do you think you're
- 2:12:34like, oh it looks good. Like cuz I've never really
- 2:12:35looked at kids before. I don't have as much experience.
- 2:12:37I've never owned other. So find out the BRC was my first
- 2:12:39car and it's the only car I've ever I've owned other cars but
- 2:12:42like that's the only drift car I've ever had.
- 2:12:43Insane. I've never had any other body
- 2:12:45kits for other cars. I haven't had any like nothing
- 2:12:47at all. So you.
- 2:12:48Didn't even know what the finished product was gonna.
- 2:12:49Be nothing. So yeah, I was showing Frank I
- 2:12:51was like, what do you think he's like?
- 2:12:52It looks pretty fucking good. And like I've met now overtime,
- 2:12:55and looking at other kids, I don't.
- 2:12:57Know I'm looking at it. No, no.
- 2:12:59The only way I can compare it is I'd be like, oh, does it feel
- 2:13:01like be in sports? Because that arrow, Yeah.
- 2:13:04But The thing is, I don't know if like it's necessarily strong
- 2:13:07be in sports. You.
- 2:13:08Know Yeah I've the like I said, the the rear bumper that I fixed
- 2:13:11from for James was pretty thick and it was cool cuz the way it
- 2:13:14broke. Same thing it split.
- 2:13:15It's not like one of those fiberglass bumpers where it,
- 2:13:17like, explodes when you get it or like.
- 2:13:19Splinters into a fucking. It's like where it like
- 2:13:22splinters into a bunch of pieces.
- 2:13:23It was just like it just split so.
- 2:13:26It seems to be up there. I mean, I know it's heavy, I
- 2:13:28think. Sports is heavy, which is.
- 2:13:30My stuff's pretty heavy too. I was.
- 2:13:31So you think it's thicker because of?
- 2:13:32That yeah, I was when we were, I guess last weekend, not last
- 2:13:36weekend on it was Saturday, Sunday.
- 2:13:39We were putting together Tom Skarks campaign this weekend or
- 2:13:41this week, whatever. And dude, like literally the
- 2:13:44front bumper or something. Like one hand.
- 2:13:45I was like, what tough fuck is? No, I remember that because I
- 2:13:48remember. Even overs, dude.
- 2:13:49The overs are like this. Fucking yeah.
- 2:13:50They're like paper. Thin, yeah.
- 2:13:52Damn. I guess so.
- 2:13:52That's what you that's what you're kind of paying for, I
- 2:13:54guess That's what you're paying for telling.
- 2:13:55You because my body kit. You could pick it up with your
- 2:13:58pinky, I'm telling you. That's the thing like it's
- 2:14:01cheap, but it's because it's I mean it's not cheap.
- 2:14:03It's it's supposed to be cheap. It's like thin and like not the
- 2:14:06best. It is good, good ish quality.
- 2:14:09But it's just not that thick. And I think it's not that thick,
- 2:14:11cuz if you get in Japan, it's not that expensive.
- 2:14:14Yeah, How much? It's not expensive.
- 2:14:15Vendors, bumpers, whatever. I mean it's it's all, it's all
- 2:14:17fairly the reason why it's expensive for us is because all
- 2:14:20getting shipped over here. So you're paying for that.
- 2:14:21So that's what brings it up to that like, you know, 15102 grand
- 2:14:25range, whatever, but everything's, everything's
- 2:14:27comparable like right now Origin is what, 1312?
- 2:14:321345, 1345 for a kid, but then be in sports is like fucking
- 2:14:362800. Dollars or.
- 2:14:37No way some be on Sports. 2800, probably.
- 2:14:39Yeah. Shit, it has to be at 2 grand or
- 2:14:41more right now. Maybe 2324.
- 2:14:44Yeah, Yeah. So it's like it's all
- 2:14:45comparable. I wish they would make some
- 2:14:47fucking like if you take those numbers and look at them, you're
- 2:14:49like, Oh well, Origin is the cheaper, you know, it's just.
- 2:14:52Like, it's gotta be imported. You you pay what you you get
- 2:14:55what you pay for. Yeah, much.
- 2:14:57But there are other brands too, like M Sports.
- 2:15:00I saw you guys got sports stuff, and yeah, so that's awesome.
- 2:15:03I'm thinking M Sports is going to be a big one for like S
- 2:15:06chassis, S chassis people. How much of those kids go for if
- 2:15:10you don't ask them like Origin prices?
- 2:15:12You know what, the real crazy one.
- 2:15:15I mean, I don't have first hand experience with M Sports yet,
- 2:15:18but PS Deuce was the first body kit where I was like I was like
- 2:15:22this fits like being sports and it's Origin price.
- 2:15:27Yeah, so that was I. Think the thing with Origin is
- 2:15:29they've been around for so long where I don't think they they
- 2:15:32make even Tom said it himself like some of the stuff that they
- 2:15:36get now like just not only doesn't fit the same, but even
- 2:15:40even the the side skirts he got like they don't have that bell
- 2:15:42bottom shape anymore. They're literally almost like
- 2:15:44flat. Like, it's just like, it's
- 2:15:45different molds and they just kind of, yeah, And then you.
- 2:15:47I mean, you know how it goes with people producing it.
- 2:15:50Yeah, exactly. Once it gets another hand, I
- 2:15:51mean, I've heard some stuff, but I'm not gonna say it.
- 2:15:54But yeah, it's just like once it's in like other hands and
- 2:15:56like produced in other places and stuff, it's just like you
- 2:15:58lose that thing, you know? Yeah, which like I get it cuz
- 2:16:01like I even see with myself, like I could have, I have, I got
- 2:16:05linked up with a company that I could have had stuff made in
- 2:16:09China and then another company that I could have made have
- 2:16:11stuff made in. In India too it was a company
- 2:16:15that they their main focus. The main stuff that they were
- 2:16:19producing was like blades for like industrial sized fans which
- 2:16:23are fiberglass like the big. So yeah so I don't know how I
- 2:16:26think I I think I found them because I got to a point where I
- 2:16:28was so sick and tired of of just dealing with all the that's
- 2:16:31we'll get into that in a second too.
- 2:16:32But I got so sick and tired of all the people I was dealing
- 2:16:34with or I just started looking it up myself and just like
- 2:16:36calling random place like hey you guys do fiberglass.
- 2:16:38This is what I have. I'll send you an e-mail, look at
- 2:16:40it, let me know if you could do it And I found them, but.
- 2:16:43It was a little bit after COVID and the thought of like giving a
- 2:16:47company like I don't know 10/15/20 grand to go make
- 2:16:51something and then for everything to shut down again
- 2:16:53and not like not only not see it but like never fucking see it
- 2:16:56like and then bad timing. Yeah, it's bad timing.
- 2:16:59I started the the LLC for Fargo line was started in either
- 2:17:06November or December of 2019. Yeah. 1st right first kit that I
- 2:17:12got. For from the first producer was
- 2:17:16March of 2020. Literally right when COVID.
- 2:17:18Fucking terrible. Fucking terrible.
- 2:17:21Well, it seems like it worked out so far.
- 2:17:23It's going. We have.
- 2:17:24So you decided, well before you lose it, you decided not to do.
- 2:17:28Was there any other reasons to not have it made in China?
- 2:17:31It's just scary. I just don't want to get in that
- 2:17:33spot where you kind of lose control.
- 2:17:35Yeah, exactly. So I've all the so like I said
- 2:17:37I've went through three producers and everything so far
- 2:17:40has went through has been East Coast.
- 2:17:43First producer I had was in New York.
- 2:17:45New York City. Remember that They were in
- 2:17:47Queens, which they made awesome stuff, but they were just Dick.
- 2:17:50They used the COVID excuse for as long as they could, but then
- 2:17:53it became like, oh, we have other stuff like this doesn't
- 2:17:55make sense for it. Like that kind of bullshit.
- 2:17:56I'm on my 4th booster. We can't be doing this.
- 2:17:58Yeah, just just dumb shit. And then I thought I had a
- 2:18:02connection with the guy. The guy was also like, for.
- 2:18:05I mean, I'm not foreign. I was born here, but like, I'm
- 2:18:07super Polish. Like both my family, both my
- 2:18:09parents are Polish. I'm speak it, read or write
- 2:18:11everything. So like this guy was our.
- 2:18:14Armenian. No.
- 2:18:16Some shit like that. Whatever.
- 2:18:17So like we had a connection. Oh sick.
- 2:18:18Well whatever. Like we just we're tight you
- 2:18:20know and just went excuse after excuse after excuse.
- 2:18:23So just shitty was just saying Oh yeah so I keep I kept
- 2:18:27everything on the on the East Coast as long as I could because
- 2:18:30I wanted to be in a spot where like let's say something got
- 2:18:32like fucked or like I wasn't getting answers.
- 2:18:34I wanted to be able to drive out to pull up to the spot and be
- 2:18:37like, hey what's going on You know trying to be just like
- 2:18:39super safe about it like. So the thought of like sending
- 2:18:42money out to China and just hoping.
- 2:18:43A ship arrives one day with with a bunch of and during.
- 2:18:47The worst. Thing ever.
- 2:18:49Exactly. Just raid war going on I.
- 2:18:51Couldn't I wouldn't be able to do that?
- 2:19:01So that's the thing that's the that's the worst part in the
- 2:19:03beginning was we had so many cell.
- 2:18:53Yeah, freak out. The anxiety would take over me
- 2:18:55and then like I would be concerned for the people that
- 2:18:58believed in me and supported the fact that I was going to get
- 2:19:00these. Yeah.
- 2:19:05And it was just we're like all right so because I I got the OK
- 2:19:08from the person we've made the molds we got the first one
- 2:19:10looked good. We got, I think five of them.
- 2:19:11It was and. Everything looked awesome.
- 2:19:14We're like alright sweet and like yeah, we could make like
- 2:19:16five a month for you. Like perfect.
- 2:19:17Let's get the like, yeah put out your, your, your, your
- 2:19:20pre-orders, pre sales whatever and like as you get them we'll
- 2:19:23make them. So we made it live on the
- 2:19:24website and we got like 20 orders we.
- 2:19:26Got 25, I think within the first like 48 hours or something,
- 2:19:29yeah. And I was like.
- 2:19:30I was like, alright, sick. Hope this works.
- 2:19:32Yeah, literally. I was like I was sick.
- 2:19:33This is awesome. Here we.
- 2:19:34Go Yeah, I. Kept hitting the guy up and he's
- 2:19:36like, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then like, it got worse.
- 2:19:38He's like, oh, I don't know, like this guy's out like, oh, I
- 2:19:40don't know, this guy got covet. Oh, I don't know.
- 2:19:42Like this guy's not around. Like how long did we wait before
- 2:19:44I was like, I can't do this anymore with?
- 2:19:46These I think we kept, we kept sending emails in the beginning
- 2:19:49where we're like, hey, listen like this.
- 2:19:50And your customers were so patient.
- 2:19:52I mean, they're my customers, but at that time.
- 2:19:54Everyone was so even to this day, did everyone so fucking.
- 2:19:57I was the one that lost patience.
- 2:19:59It wasn't any of them. Yeah, I was one that was like, I
- 2:20:01don't want to have this money anymore.
- 2:20:02Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
- 2:20:03No, it got to a point where we're just like I'd like, not
- 2:20:05only we can't deal with these guys, but we also like we should
- 2:20:07probably. Just and and also the processing
- 2:20:09fees. Because if I if I didn't return
- 2:20:11it over a certain now, now you can't do any of that shit now.
- 2:20:14PayPal is like the second, the second we accept an order on our
- 2:20:18website, we lose the processing fees.
- 2:20:21So whether I refund it the next day or I refund it in a, what do
- 2:20:25you guys use? Shopify it's.
- 2:20:26It's. Using Big Commerce, but it's
- 2:20:28using PayPal I guess technically, but yeah, so now
- 2:20:32it's even worse. Shopify for all our stuff.
- 2:20:35Does it? What kind of payment?
- 2:20:37Does it use PayPal? So it uses PayPal and I recently
- 2:20:40set up a thing where you could also I had no idea cuz I
- 2:20:44obviously don't order from my website so I wouldn't know, but
- 2:20:46I guess before you could only pay using your PayPal account,
- 2:20:49yeah? Yeah, yeah, I know what you're
- 2:20:50talking about. Now you can use card directly
- 2:20:52instead of having. Yeah.
- 2:20:53So I opened up the thing where now people could pay using their
- 2:20:55credit card and it's decent. It's been okay.
- 2:20:59I haven't had any. There was one issue, I think
- 2:21:01there was two orders that came up that they might have been
- 2:21:04fraud but keeping. An eye out because they won't
- 2:21:06tell you. If you refund someone, they
- 2:21:09usually won't tell you. You have to go on the back end
- 2:21:11and look and you'll see the fees are taken out.
- 2:21:13There was one time where we got back charged for something
- 2:21:16because I think someone's card ended up not taking in the the
- 2:21:22payment for some reason. Like we got paid for, we shipped
- 2:21:24out the order, then like a week later it was a charge back.
- 2:21:27Thankfully we've only had to deal with that once.
- 2:21:28Like I said, everyone we've dealt with so far has been
- 2:21:31really cool and really nice all. Your customers have always been
- 2:21:33pretty much the best customers I've ever.
- 2:21:35Yeah, and like I tried. So this is another thing where
- 2:21:38like, I have so many pictures, so many videos, so many ideas,
- 2:21:42so many video things. So like so much stuff.
- 2:21:44But, like, it got to the point where like, I guess going back
- 2:21:48to just an overall quick thing is I've used three different
- 2:21:51producers. Now I'm on the third one.
- 2:21:53And like every single one we use, we've gotten not fucked.
- 2:21:56Like, yes, every kid has come out, but it's just like
- 2:21:58everything is delayed, always excuses, always some sort of
- 2:22:00bullshit and keeps getting pushed back.
- 2:22:02So what was I getting at? They.
- 2:22:09Mind fart? Yeah, that was called brain
- 2:22:11fart. Brain fart.
- 2:22:12Brain fart, Brain fart. No producer.
- 2:22:15So what with producers. Yeah.
- 2:22:16So we kept getting fucked over with producers and I've oh what
- 2:22:22I'm trying to say the reason. Yeah so I have all this stuff
- 2:22:24and like I have all these prototypes for all these parts.
- 2:22:26Like for example I have literally the the prototype for
- 2:22:29the 2nd Gen. mirror plates. I have them at my house like
- 2:22:32ready to go. I have oh that's sick.
- 2:22:33I have a roof wing ready to go. Like I said I have overs that I
- 2:22:36have a prototype. I have all these parts ready to
- 2:22:37go, but like I just don't want to post anything cuz I know
- 2:22:39people want these kits and like I don't post on that Fargo line
- 2:22:42page almost at all. Because any not only like I
- 2:22:45don't have to post anything, I get messages, but anything I
- 2:22:47post it's like 2030 messages. Like oh where can I get a kit?
- 2:22:50How can I get a kit like all this stuff and like I I want to
- 2:22:53so bad but just like every producer we use so far.
- 2:22:55Just like there's no possibility.
- 2:22:57Of having to like stop that from.
- 2:22:59I don't think you should have that stop you though from I
- 2:23:01shouldn't, but I'm just that type of guy where like I see
- 2:23:03those messages in the thing and like, I not only am, I like and
- 2:23:06you're not. Answering, but you're not taking
- 2:23:07orders, right? No, I'm not saying we have so
- 2:23:09you're good. So I paid for we we put in a an
- 2:23:14order back in like I said I think it was like August or
- 2:23:18September of last year for ten kids, so.
- 2:23:20Some people are waiting. And I was smart about it because
- 2:23:23I was like, fuck these guys. I know they're probably gonna
- 2:23:25take in the order, but they're probably gonna do like a couple
- 2:23:27here, a couple there, couple there.
- 2:23:28So, like, at first I did a presale of three.
- 2:23:29The first three went out. After the three went out, I got
- 2:23:32in touch with them again. I was like, all right, I'm gonna
- 2:23:34put out a preorder for the next three.
- 2:23:36When do I expect them? They gave me like a basic
- 2:23:37expectancy date. Can you do like paint?
- 2:23:40Like split the payment or something?
- 2:23:41Or they want all of it up front. I paid all of it up front.
- 2:23:43Do you have to though? You should ask them pretty no,
- 2:23:46I'm not using them anymore. We have.
- 2:23:48So what I'm getting at is from these ten kits that I ordered,
- 2:23:50there's three left that need to be shipped that were supposed to
- 2:23:52be shipped like too. Much because I noticed like I
- 2:23:55like to pay things in full too, but I noticed in business.
- 2:23:59It's kind of better to leave someone hanging.
- 2:24:00Last time I had the the phone call with them, they're like,
- 2:24:03yeah, well, we're not making any money off these anymore.
- 2:24:05And Bob, I was like, dude, I fucking paid you a year ago.
- 2:24:08Yeah, like I paid not only for one, I paid you for like 10 or
- 2:24:1115 of them. Like, what the fuck?
- 2:24:12Yeah, so now. So now it's like if you could
- 2:24:13split it, Yeah. So like I said the, the, the
- 2:24:16new, the new guys that I'm going to be working with now they're
- 2:24:19out on the West Coast. So it there's a a next charge
- 2:24:22that I'm going to have to kind of take in now of shipping over
- 2:24:25here which is probably gonna suck.
- 2:24:29I'm gonna try my best not to let it influence the the price
- 2:24:31because where we're ATS kind of nice but.
- 2:24:33Yeah. Where are you at right now?
- 2:24:34We're We're still at 1850. Oh, wow.
- 2:24:36Yeah. Which isn't bad.
- 2:24:38It's not bad. Is.
- 2:24:38That what it was when we so Blitz sells a front bumper for
- 2:24:42our cars. That's $1500.
- 2:24:44I sell a full kit for 1850. Yeah.
- 2:24:47I I probably was telling you to raise that even back then.
- 2:24:50Of this year. Yeah, literally from the.
- 2:24:51Hello. Ethan's made it.
- 2:24:52Ethan's made it. And guess what?
- 2:24:54What? Don't say it.
- 2:24:56My car's not done. Don't say that I'm done.
- 2:25:01Yeah, today. Today, you're done.
- 2:25:04Grab a beer. Oh man.
- 2:25:10So it's not done, Carl, don't get your hopes up.
- 2:25:13I'll go. No, no.
- 2:25:14No, because because I I have no idea what you guys were talking
- 2:25:17about just now. So I feel really bad for
- 2:25:20interrupting the conversation. I was going to say nerd shit.
- 2:25:22But I think it's funny because Eric.
- 2:25:26The one who lives right around here, yeah, he messaged me and
- 2:25:30said, hey, are you guys like, when are you guys leaving for
- 2:25:33final bout? He's trying to see everybody.
- 2:25:36Everybody. I feel so terrible about this,
- 2:25:37but if you're listening to this and you have a friend who's
- 2:25:39interested in trying to coordinate something with me to
- 2:25:42go to final bout, I feel like Frankie's saying this shit and I
- 2:25:44feel so fucking bad. But like.
- 2:25:48I'll see you guys there. Like just fucking.
- 2:25:50I'm going to fucking. See you there.
- 2:25:52I'll see you there, because it's really hard to coordinate with
- 2:25:54everybody. I'll explain that it's because
- 2:25:57he has to deal with me and I don't set anything up to the
- 2:26:00last minute, even without that final bouts.
- 2:26:02The best event, but also the worst event because it's just
- 2:26:05about the only time where everyone gets together.
- 2:26:08So it's so fucking hectic and there's so many people, Oh my
- 2:26:10God, we're like, yeah, and especially if you're driving
- 2:26:12too. Like I remember the first time
- 2:26:13we were driving it was awesome. Like, so I've been going since I
- 2:26:16think final about two. I'd make sure to drive out every
- 2:26:19year and be there, but that's pretty soon we're driving.
- 2:26:22I think it was 3 or 4. Whatever.
- 2:26:24Yeah dude, I'm fucking love final about.
- 2:26:25I love those guys. I can't wait to go again this
- 2:26:27year. So like I said, it's the best
- 2:26:29event ever, but it's also the worst because if you're driving,
- 2:26:31there's so much going on and you want to go out and drive because
- 2:26:33that track is fucking awesome. But there's so many people.
- 2:26:37It's like, yo like so awesome to see you.
- 2:26:39But like, I gotta like do this. I'm like, I gotta swap tires and
- 2:26:42I go do this. I gotta get out cuz we'll talk
- 2:26:43with this much time or whatever. Fucking but yeah, you.
- 2:26:45Wanna drive? And like and like.
- 2:26:47I love giving people ride alongs.
- 2:26:49I will always give everyone over.
- 2:26:50Ride along. I always make sure every event I
- 2:26:52go to we always bring an extra helmet just because just down
- 2:26:54anyone that wants to Just hundreds.
- 2:26:56So like giving ride along always ask no, no problem with that.
- 2:27:01Yeah, so many people. But the problem is so many
- 2:27:00fucking. Or it's like someone comes up.
- 2:27:02So yeah, yeah, I come by later like I'll bring like cop on and
- 2:27:05I have like two people going like I'll go, I'll do those laps
- 2:27:07and I'll come back. They're.
- 2:27:08Gonna be like I heard you on the podcast, but The thing is.
- 2:27:11Is like, The thing is, is like when I do the ride along shit, I
- 2:27:13like. I do that with my, my friends
- 2:27:16because then like, I get to share it with them.
- 2:27:18Yeah, you know what I mean? I do with everybody.
- 2:27:20I'm bad. Yeah, you do it with everybody.
- 2:27:22I love somebody. Jesus Christ, I try my best.
- 2:27:24What if? What if somebody has decency?
- 2:27:26What if somebody has chronic shit, your panteosis, and they
- 2:27:28get into your car and you didn't even know I?
- 2:27:31Then I try to be nice and at least, like, explain, like, all
- 2:27:33right, Like, have you ever, like, been on the ride along
- 2:27:35with before? Yes or no?
- 2:27:35OK. If you haven't like.
- 2:27:36All right, hold on over here like it's a little.
- 2:27:38Don't touch the E brake. Yeah, just just keep you give
- 2:27:40them the. Professional race.
- 2:27:41Keep your hands on the inside. Yeah, just like little stuff
- 2:27:43like that. Yeah, put.
- 2:27:44Your hands inside the vehicle at all times, Yeah.
- 2:27:46And it's. I try my best to bring people
- 2:27:49along because there's a lot of people that go to these events
- 2:27:52that don't have cars yet. Yeah, want to get into it?
- 2:27:54And like, right as you go for that ride along, you're like,
- 2:27:56holy shit. You just push them over.
- 2:27:58Awesome. Yeah, exactly.
- 2:27:59And it gets people to want to go and do it.
- 2:28:01Especially in an FRS or a BRZ, when they're like, I got one of
- 2:28:03these at home, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:28:05No, that's another thing is the fact that I kind of see one of
- 2:28:08these cars at least daily. Yeah, like there's.
- 2:28:11I see those all. I'm so happy that I've started
- 2:28:15this stuff early enough for like now.
- 2:28:17I feel like this is every. Pioneer in that Channel.
- 2:28:20So every everything that we're doing now, I keep saying where
- 2:28:23it's it's me and my girlfriend pretty much.
- 2:28:25Now that's everything. Everything that's like planned.
- 2:28:28Everything's like five years down the line, cuz like now
- 2:28:30they're like cheap ish. I know little David.
- 2:28:33Little David got his car with bucket seat, coils, wheels,
- 2:28:38welded diff and all this stuff. 90,000 miles for 9 grand?
- 2:28:41Where can you find a car for 9 grand that starts every?
- 2:28:44I mean A/C works no issues at all I mean.
- 2:28:47I think are you on the club loose page?
- 2:28:49OK, so I'm gonna, I'm gonna plug this out there.
- 2:28:52Maybe it could help it help him sell it.
- 2:28:54But Bobby sold was was trying to sell six and a half 6 1/2 grand.
- 2:28:58It's a salvage title, but it's got the motor on that fresh
- 2:29:02motor 20,000 miles. On it fresh motor 20 or 41. 6500
- 2:29:05bucks. Yeah, somebody give Bobby 6500
- 2:29:08bucks. Oh, I was about to do that.
- 2:29:09Shit was. No, yeah.
- 2:29:12No, I was about to buy that. That car.
- 2:29:14So that car used to be that car used to be Chris Knapp's
- 2:29:17girlfriend's car, I'm pretty sure.
- 2:29:18That's why I didn't trust it. Chris owned it.
- 2:29:20No, it's not kidding it. It seems like a good car.
- 2:29:23It just. Take that back right now it's
- 2:29:25it's definitely a little beat up.
- 2:29:26Yeah, but it's a drift car. I mean you buy the car for 6500
- 2:29:29bucks and you $200.00 all day long.
- 2:29:31Bobby, I'll come buy that car right now.
- 2:29:32Give me a good. Price Give me give me that
- 2:29:34crackhead. Don't do it.
- 2:29:36You mean? That crackhead price, you're
- 2:29:37saying that right now? I want to hold you to it.
- 2:29:39Okay, give me some more info. In the car.
- 2:29:40What color is it? Blue.
- 2:29:42Get your friend. Get your friend.
- 2:29:43It's black. It's like a darker Gray kind of
- 2:29:45color, yeah. Okay.
- 2:29:46It's a cool car. Definitely, definitely reach.
- 2:29:48It's definitely beat up on the outside.
- 2:29:49And it sucks because it's not even like the bumpers.
- 2:29:51Like, fuck, Exactly. Yeah.
- 2:29:52So it's not bumpers and fenders, It's quarters.
- 2:29:55How bad? Quarters.
- 2:29:56And I haven't seen it in person. I've seen pictures.
- 2:29:59If I go to garage day, Bob, can you fix it or boggle line over
- 2:30:02fenders? Yeah, so I started talking about
- 2:30:05that before too, the the over all over the place where?
- 2:30:08You got too much shit to talk about.
- 2:30:09Yeah, I know. Earlier did you notice casually
- 2:30:11he was like, yeah, I actually have this in the works and also
- 2:30:14this and this. Well, he.
- 2:30:15Said he has a whiteboard with like 25 different things.
- 2:30:17So, so that was what I was just talking about before we got off
- 2:30:20on this tangent. Yeah.
- 2:30:21So the I'm happy that this all started early, and I'm happy
- 2:30:24that everything sucked in the beginning, because the the
- 2:30:27further kind of idea of it is like five years down the line
- 2:30:31these cars already getting cheap, but like five years down
- 2:30:33the line, when S chassis are even harder to get and they're
- 2:30:35even more expensive, everyone's gonna be buying.
- 2:30:41I kind of find them for like. 350Z's are already kind of
- 2:30:38getting expensive. I don't think you can get one
- 2:30:40for less than like 8 grand now. They're they're pretty.
- 2:30:43I still can kind of find them for five, but they're auto and
- 2:30:47BB. And they're auto now.
- 2:30:49You could every once in a while you'll find those deals.
- 2:30:51But. They might be fucked up, but I
- 2:30:52kind of trust your engine more than a VQ.
- 2:30:55Unless it's like an HR or whatever the fuck.
- 2:30:57I don't know. Those Vqs are, but our borders
- 2:30:59are kind of. I don't, I don't really like, I
- 2:31:01think it's one of those things where these cars are new enough
- 2:31:03or like you don't hear enough people being like, Oh yeah, this
- 2:31:06thing works great, It's fantastic.
- 2:31:07You only hear the people that are like, Oh yeah, I blew my
- 2:31:09motor. What's that?
- 2:31:09There's a lot. Of heel on that Blew those on
- 2:31:11that. The newer ones, yeah, the newer
- 2:31:13ones are kind. Of what goes on your car.
- 2:31:15It's got a closing windows itself out.
- 2:31:17So the I've had the car for not going on nine years now and the
- 2:31:23only issues I've ever really had other than like crashing and
- 2:31:27braking stuff is axles. And like now I have the I've had
- 2:31:31subframe risers for a decent amount of time and that kind of
- 2:31:33helped. And I have diff risers now too,
- 2:31:36which for the first time ever in my life, I'll openly honestly
- 2:31:40admit we're like driving the car isn't S1 anymore because I have
- 2:31:43a way more aggressive clutch and I have the solid subframe rises
- 2:31:46were in bad, but the solid diff rises are a little rough.
- 2:31:49Oh, like like vibrations. Not even vibrations, but just
- 2:31:51like getting off the clutch. It's just very like jerky and
- 2:31:53stuff. And just like for drifting.
- 2:31:55Oh my God, it's fucking beautiful.
- 2:31:57Like clutch kicks feel so good. Yeah, but for daily driving,
- 2:32:00it's definitely not as that's. What I always tell as 13 people
- 2:32:03too, or as 14 people, I'm like once you change those diff
- 2:32:06bushings or those subframe bushings, that's going to be the
- 2:32:08end of the I've thought about. I like car I I've made my I've
- 2:32:12slowly started raising my car a tiny bit and out time.
- 2:32:16Guys, whoa, whoa, whoa. A little bit.
- 2:32:22Get into you? It's just like every year it
- 2:32:19goes up a teeny tiny bit. That's just like.
- 2:32:23No. Not even.
- 2:32:23I did the same thing. So I don't, I don't even think
- 2:32:25it's age. I just feel like drifting is
- 2:32:27fun. And like you get into a thing
- 2:32:29where like your car super low, like it's fun, you're doing that
- 2:32:31and then like, so it's like, all right, like you need.
- 2:32:33I'm getting a little better at this.
- 2:32:34It's like, yeah, this works, all right, Let's make it like a tiny
- 2:32:36bit better. And like all of a sudden you
- 2:32:37have like a little less rear camber and all of a sudden, like
- 2:32:39you raise it a little bit and all of a sudden you're on
- 2:32:41seventeens in the front set of eighteens.
- 2:32:42It's like little stuff like that.
- 2:32:43And just like every little bit you do, it's like, wow, this is
- 2:32:45great. This feels really funny.
- 2:32:46I don't. Know about you, but every
- 2:32:48quarter inch you raise it, it feels like a totally different
- 2:32:51car. At least mine did.
- 2:32:52Yeah. No, it feels really good.
- 2:32:53So like I'll. Just raise it 1/4 inch and then
- 2:32:55you go drive and you're like, holy shit, this thing's amazing.
- 2:32:58Yeah, so I've thought about going up a little bit more and
- 2:33:01then putting in a different subframe with just those
- 2:33:04subframe risers, not with the diff risers, just to go back to
- 2:33:07how it felt before, cuz it was really nice.
- 2:33:09But I don't know, Speaking of breaking stuff, yeah, Axles has
- 2:33:13been the only thing. The only mechanical problem I've
- 2:33:18ever had was literally just my fault because we we drove.
- 2:33:22Like I said, I drove Rio Bash with all those other eight six
- 2:33:25guys from the Chicago area. Yeah, they're all from like that
- 2:33:28area. Yeah.
- 2:33:29And it was I only I signed up super late and I barely got to
- 2:33:33go because we were waiting to find out if we were driving
- 2:33:36final bat or not and all that stuff playing and all that and
- 2:33:40we and I only I couldn't sign up to drive Rio bash.
- 2:33:44I actually ended up taking somebody else's spot.
- 2:33:46So I only had one day and it was the end of the day.
- 2:33:48I had like 1/4 tank of gas left and I just kept driving, kept
- 2:33:53driving and like first I think the cutoff was like 9:00.
- 2:33:56They pushed it back to like 10 and at like 10:00 I'm still
- 2:33:58doing laps. I'm at like below E like super
- 2:34:01long, like one more lap. I'm like one more lap, one more
- 2:34:04latic. Dude, yeah.
- 2:34:05I was like, because I was like, this is the like, I'm driving
- 2:34:07this tomorrow. I'm not gonna get to drive.
- 2:34:09My You might as well just run out again.
- 2:34:10I was like, yeah, dude, literally.
- 2:34:11I was like one more lap, one more lap.
- 2:34:12And it got to the point where they literally, like, had like
- 2:34:14halfway through the last lap I ran out of gas, like flew off
- 2:34:17track, and that was the only mechanic.
- 2:34:19It cut off and fully the car shut, shut off like I couldn't.
- 2:34:22Like I drove it to it completely dry.
- 2:34:25And like that was the first time I ever had mechanical problems,
- 2:34:27where like the next day we came back so we pushed the car off
- 2:34:30track or they pulled it off track.
- 2:34:31Whatever it was. I parked it for the night.
- 2:34:33We're like, fuck it, whatever we'll do with it tomorrow.
- 2:34:35And the next day we got gas. We brought it back, we filled it
- 2:34:38up and it started no problem. There was a I think it was the
- 2:34:44check engine light popped up for a misfire at first, but it went
- 2:34:48away. So it was like, all right, perk,
- 2:34:49whatever, fine. We started driving home and
- 2:34:51halfway through that drive from Wisconsin to Chicago where it's
- 2:34:55the middle of fucking nowhere with nothing, I threw another
- 2:34:58code for I think it was also a misfire.
- 2:35:01Whatever it was, the coil packed to the shit.
- 2:35:04Was that your? First coil pack.
- 2:35:06That was the first coil pack that everyone the the, the.
- 2:35:08The reason I think the one went recently at special stage was
- 2:35:11because now the car's turbo, it was probably like fucked up from
- 2:35:13the first time where like that happened.
- 2:35:15So yeah that coil pack took a shit.
- 2:35:17I was lucky enough where there was other eight, six guys coming
- 2:35:19back and someone stopped by. They had spare ones with them
- 2:35:22so. The coil packs are oh.
- 2:35:23Damn. Got dodged a bullet.
- 2:35:25I don't even know if they're a weak point.
- 2:35:26I've never heard of anyone having issues with them that
- 2:35:28might. Just be like a standard dude.
- 2:35:29I ran the car too dry. I was drifting the car, bouncing
- 2:35:34off rive limiter with a empty gasket.
- 2:35:36Yeah, probably just a standard where item and you replaced it.
- 2:35:39Yeah. And if, I mean the car was
- 2:35:40already at like 100,000 miles, then I didn't replace the coil
- 2:35:42pack. So oh OK, I did spark plugs but
- 2:35:45I didn't do the coil pack. So yeah, that that 100,000 miles
- 2:35:48and maybe yeah so now with it being like I said the special
- 2:35:52stage when we drove the one of the coil packs took a shit.
- 2:35:54So before final bout in 2-3 weeks whenever it is I'm going
- 2:35:57to make sure to get 4 brand new fresh OEM coil so.
- 2:36:00You are going to do that? Yeah, Yeah.
- 2:36:01I was just thinking I was like. Replace all, but I don't know
- 2:36:04how much they cost. They're expensive, but I might
- 2:36:06as well do it now cuz I know they might be.
- 2:36:07If one already went. I know another one is probably
- 2:36:09gonna go in the future too, so I might as well change about now.
- 2:36:11And I also don't want to get stuck out there, not being able
- 2:36:13to drive, being out there, you know?
- 2:36:15Yeah, dude that. Does anyone make like
- 2:36:16performance ones yet? Or.
- 2:36:18Fraction motors, I'm sure. Jesus Christ, Sorry.
- 2:36:21You know who's been. Really intrusive thought Who's
- 2:36:24been really good with eight, six parts recently What GK Tech.
- 2:36:27Course what bro? The last.
- 2:36:29The last like a month. They make everything I.
- 2:36:32Thought it was like a 350Z VG the last month or the last like
- 2:36:37two months. Like every week they'll come out
- 2:36:38with something new. It's crazy.
- 2:36:39They're even making up front. UH 5 by 114 hubs down to.
- 2:36:43I saw that. Jesus, but just for the front
- 2:36:46though, I talked to just for the front, the rears you could run,
- 2:36:49they're like wx or legacy hubs with like some sort of rotor
- 2:36:52where like you can make it work for like I think it's like 4 or
- 2:36:54500 bucks. So is yours converted now?
- 2:36:56I've been running so another thing everybody hates on spaces
- 2:36:59and adapters. I've been running spaces and
- 2:37:02adapters on my car since I got it.
- 2:37:04Yeah, the pretty much the exact same ones.
- 2:37:06No problems at all as long as there.
- 2:37:07Are any wheels? Have you lost none?
- 2:37:08Zero. And I don't even like torque it
- 2:37:10down to the torque crunch. You just.
- 2:37:12You. Get it there and tight is tight.
- 2:37:14It's tight. You get this little field,
- 2:37:16there's this one little spot where it's like, you get it like
- 2:37:18tight and you have that extra like, yeah.
- 2:37:20And it goes. I know exactly what you're
- 2:37:21talking about, SPOT, as long as you get everything to that spot.
- 2:37:23Especially the day comes where you do that and it's like.
- 2:37:28And you're like, whoa. Carl, I'm excited for you to
- 2:37:30drive your car. Why?
- 2:37:31You just got an alignment today. Oh yeah, I did factional line.
- 2:37:35And your front upper controllers were backwards.
- 2:37:37Mine they are no longer. Back, I know.
- 2:37:40So now it should feel pretty. I drove it here and I first of
- 2:37:44all, I I was telling Frank I thought I was what I said to the
- 2:37:47text this morning. I was cracking up for two hours
- 2:37:50about that shit because I said the text this morning and I was
- 2:37:53like, yo, I actually think I made the car better.
- 2:37:56Which is weird. Rare instance.
- 2:37:58Oh yeah, And then I was like, it's not clunking or doing
- 2:38:02anything weird. And then I said the absolute
- 2:38:05bare minimum of an automobile. Yeah, he's like, you know what
- 2:38:08the the absolute minimum of a car should be?
- 2:38:10Yeah, like, I I don't know, I I'm kind of excited.
- 2:38:13I don't know what do you run for your front angle setup.
- 2:38:15I have a Drift HQ bolt on kit with the.
- 2:38:20Is it like that weird like? Like offsets the knuckle and it.
- 2:38:24Changes the tie rod pickup point.
- 2:38:25So the reason I'm asking is cuz I know those are very prone to
- 2:38:29breaking those bolts. I had Seb so like I said I rent
- 2:38:33a garage and since Seb's out on the West Coast we keep his car
- 2:38:36in my garage and I had it at my house once.
- 2:38:38I think we were prepping for an event or something.
- 2:38:40Like I had it at my house and all I did was I hopped in the
- 2:38:43car, I drove it down the street and I went down the street.
- 2:38:45So I got to have my stop sign stop looked left and right.
- 2:38:48I go up the hill, I turn left to go down and the fucking thing
- 2:38:51snaps and the wheel pops right off.
- 2:38:53Did you? Guys, bring it here after that
- 2:38:54because he's done this before. Yeah, so I I got a Jack and we
- 2:38:58like, rolled it somehow back to my house.
- 2:39:00And then that's when Anthony picked it up and brought it.
- 2:39:01Over here. Oh yeah.
- 2:39:02And that was somewhat recent, that was?
- 2:39:03Like, why are we talking about this?
- 2:39:05No, I was just. All right, you'd be.
- 2:39:07Alright, not so here's here. I know that that is.
- 2:39:09Unfortunately I have. Two vehicles that will have it
- 2:39:14that will fail in that fashion. The Sequoia runs the same kind
- 2:39:17of suspension design with the lower ball joint as the is where
- 2:39:20what's if it goes? The wheel falls off, so.
- 2:39:24This could be like an earthquake.
- 2:39:25That's weird. Dude, when when when people in
- 2:39:28the group chat and the Sequoia Facebook groups complain about
- 2:39:30that, it's always like a picture of the Sequoia and it just looks
- 2:39:33so sad because it's just like leaned over like like this.
- 2:39:37Wait, that shit happens. Like often?
- 2:39:38Because people don't replace them, I replaced mine.
- 2:39:42Wow. And you have to torque them.
- 2:39:44You torque them to the spec, not more, not less.
- 2:39:48So because you know if you over torque it, that's what puts
- 2:39:52unnecessary force on that fucking ball joint.
- 2:39:54And it'll go every time I make a contact with that ball joint,
- 2:39:58like the first time I have ever did it.
- 2:40:00I was. I was.
- 2:40:01I was tandeming. I was tandeming with my buddy
- 2:40:05James and. James who?
- 2:40:07James Tits. He has a.
- 2:40:09He has an IS. But and a good 36.
- 2:40:12Yeah, dude, that guy. Most selfless guy I've ever met,
- 2:40:16man. Shout out tits every time I make
- 2:40:17contact with that, no, but make sure.
- 2:40:19To corrupt I was tandeming. I was tandeming with him and and
- 2:40:21I bumped into him. I bumped into him and as soon as
- 2:40:25I bumped into him in my brain I'm like order ball joints when
- 2:40:28I get home. Yes.
- 2:40:30Oh my God, I replace him. I'm so scared of that.
- 2:40:33Imagine I. Was going to say so Speaking of
- 2:40:35I guess that's your like tow vehicle, right?
- 2:40:37That's Sequoia, yeah. Yeah.
- 2:40:38How long you got that for? Probably around six, no?
- 2:40:42I got it in month December, December, month this past
- 2:40:45December, but it's my second one.
- 2:40:46How's it been treating you? Fantastic.
- 2:40:48Yeah. Yeah, So the reason I was going
- 2:40:50to bring up here, I'm a big fucking truck guy now, yeah.
- 2:40:53Yeah, yeah, yeah, I thought. And I wanted to talk about yours
- 2:40:55because you have a Chevy now. Yeah, he bought the right.
- 2:40:57And then after that we'll hit some.
- 2:40:59Well, after that we'll hit some questions And then, yeah, yeah,
- 2:41:02yeah, yeah. And address because you probably
- 2:41:03have a shit load of them and then we'll have you back on
- 2:41:05again. But Chevy, please, because you
- 2:41:07went the he went the Chevy route.
- 2:41:09Because he so no no no I'm not smart it's it's called, it's
- 2:41:13called Facebook marketplace and good deals.
- 2:41:15So I he's smart. I didn't So I've I was
- 2:41:18mentioning I don't know if I brought that up while we were
- 2:41:20here or not but I was talking to Carl outside and I was saying
- 2:41:22I've I've had a trailer for probably like 2 almost three
- 2:41:26years now and I never had a truck.
- 2:41:28So anytime I had to, yeah, literally backwards.
- 2:41:30And so right, I had a I had a four two post lift before I had
- 2:41:34a shop. So.
- 2:41:35Actually, that makes me, I don't know if you remember years ago
- 2:41:38when you guys. Brought another lift in here.
- 2:41:40I came over here, I was helping you guys install it.
- 2:41:42Oh yeah, it was like. Fucking what?
- 2:41:44We had like an army here, right? It.
- 2:41:46Was it was me, you, Justin and Louis?
- 2:41:52It was like, dude, we had maybe I'm thinking of another.
- 2:41:55So it was a different time. Yeah, I think it was like four
- 2:41:56of us here. Yeah, I don't know it.
- 2:41:58Was when we were installing this front one over here.
- 2:42:00OK, so maybe. Yeah, dude.
- 2:42:02It was a little bit ago. One time we had like fucking
- 2:42:04eight people because we had to take.
- 2:42:05I went and picked all that shit up in my pickup truck or
- 2:42:07something, right? Or my?
- 2:42:09This. I think this one was a brand new
- 2:42:10one. Yeah, this lit up the four post.
- 2:42:13Oh, I'm thinking of the four post one.
- 2:42:15That's what I'm thinking, OK, those are a little shorter.
- 2:42:18I'm thinking of this problem. Yeah, OK, You're not.
- 2:42:20Putting this in the 8 foot bed. I don't know.
- 2:42:21Yeah, fuck how big of an 8 foot bed.
- 2:42:24Oh yeah, I'm pretty sure you did.
- 2:42:25You actually could. But I think I the post the
- 2:42:28trailer. Yeah, but you.
- 2:42:30I was going to say you have a trailer.
- 2:42:32No, you might be right. Yeah, it was this front one.
- 2:42:34Yeah. We did put it in the truck.
- 2:42:35Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, I think we did.
- 2:42:37And I destroyed my truck. Maybe because I strapped it and
- 2:42:40the fucking strap pulled the metal in the bed.
- 2:42:44Some crazy shit. I was so upset.
- 2:42:45Tight in that strap? God damn.
- 2:42:47It was definitely Mercules. I know I put it.
- 2:42:49I put it in the wrong section like it was like one of those
- 2:42:52weird hook ones. And it was.
- 2:42:53Usually like 4 in the back of the bed?
- 2:42:54No, wasn't one of those. I'll show you when we go
- 2:42:56outside. It's so you know you should.
- 2:42:59Did you consider a Toyo? Did you consider it to you?
- 2:43:02So yeah, so like I said, the only.
- 2:43:03Reason I got it this was. It so I was looking.
- 2:43:06I never like I said I had a trailer 1st and anytime I wanted
- 2:43:10to use it my dad lives down in like the Philly area.
- 2:43:12So from here to Philly it's like an hour and a half.
- 2:43:14So if I ever wanted to do it I got fucked once where my car
- 2:43:17broke in where was it? No it was at E Town.
- 2:43:22It was stupid. This was the very beginning.
- 2:43:23I broke an axle. I had no idea how to fix an
- 2:43:25axle. It was like I gotta go fucking.
- 2:43:26I gotta trailer my car home. I have no idea how to fix this
- 2:43:28stupid shit and. My trailer was up in the Poconos
- 2:43:32cuz our one of our friends no I'm sorry.
- 2:43:35One of our my uncle has a house up there and we kept the trailer
- 2:43:39over there for a little bit so I had to drive.
- 2:43:42I left E town. I drove down to Philly to go
- 2:43:45pick up a truck. We drove all the way up.
- 2:43:47My God to. The Poconos to go pick up the
- 2:43:49trailer. We drove back to E Town.
- 2:43:52Picked up the car, dropped it off at my house, took the
- 2:43:54trailer back and then drove all the way back to Philly.
- 2:43:56And it was fucking terrible. So it was one of those things
- 2:43:58where like, anytime I wanted to use the trailer, I'd have to
- 2:44:02drive down, either go pick up the truck or ask a friend.
- 2:44:06Like, you know how that goes. Like if you have a truck, like,
- 2:44:08it's nice. Like, yeah, OK, I'm open.
- 2:44:10Like, yeah, you can use whatever.
- 2:44:11But like, it just scheduling never works out.
- 2:44:12And it's like, if you need it for more than one day, just all
- 2:44:14that stuff. So it was always a shit show,
- 2:44:16so. I now that my car is turboed and
- 2:44:20we're we're going to final battles like I should probably
- 2:44:22get. I mean it's it's it's just one
- 2:44:24of those things that eventually. You have to do.
- 2:44:26So what? Yeah, you want to keep doing.
- 2:44:27This and like the Seriously, St. driving isn't that bad.
- 2:44:30It's just the fact that that car is so small where it's like
- 2:44:32anytime we drove anywhere, the two times that we drove out over
- 2:44:36there was is just packed with shit.
- 2:44:38Like it was like like I said, it was me and cautious sitting.
- 2:44:40She was in. Oh my.
- 2:44:41God, yeah, it's probably. 4. 4 tires and like like bags and
- 2:44:45like random shit that you ever got your street cred.
- 2:44:47That's what I always. I had eight years of St.
- 2:44:49driving, Yeah, everything. It doesn't matter.
- 2:44:51And like, not like street driving to close events like all
- 2:44:53the way out over there, That's. What baffles me, dude?
- 2:44:56Yeah, like the hours. But that's the thing.
- 2:44:58When you have a car that you know is gonna work, there's
- 2:45:01there was not a thought in my head of like, oh, what if this
- 2:45:03breaks? What if that breaks?
- 2:45:04Like everything works. I had spare axles if I bring
- 2:45:06that, so whatever, I pull over, I changed an axle.
- 2:45:08Takes me like 30 minutes to do now, you know?
- 2:45:09Yeah, that's amazing stuff. But you don't even look at the
- 2:45:13gauges anymore. That's what you're.
- 2:45:14Saying, I mean, now I do because the car's turbo.
- 2:45:16So I've got to pay attention to the Afrs and I've got to.
- 2:45:17Kind of. Make sure the oil's full.
- 2:45:20Nothing's leaking, Yeah. Make sure everything's tight
- 2:45:22but. Prior you that's a confidence in
- 2:45:24something that I wish it was so. Nice do I.
- 2:45:29You look at the gauges in your truck.
- 2:45:30In my truck. What about your?
- 2:45:32You're in your SRT and you're probably fucking staring at me.
- 2:45:34I look at gauges and everything, but I'm a nerd.
- 2:45:36Yeah, yeah, you are. I.
- 2:45:37Why is that cooling temp a little higher?
- 2:45:39It's. Not really.
- 2:45:40Like just yeah, I'm not that crazy, but yeah. 4 degrees
- 2:45:43higher than that. Yeah, but no, no, no.
- 2:45:45That's but we we were talking. About it's a car cooling
- 2:45:47function. Speaking it real quick,
- 2:45:49Sidetrack. That's mishi.
- 2:45:50Speaking of cooling temps and stuff, fuck Mishi Moto fans,
- 2:45:53they're fucking garbage. They're.
- 2:45:54No, no, I don't run Mishi. Sorry Mishi Moto.
- 2:45:57And you guys suck. They're nice people over there.
- 2:46:00Probably very nice. They're probably Yours fans.
- 2:46:03I bought before my car, so we'll go back to truck thing in a
- 2:46:05second. I before my car was turboed, I
- 2:46:08started kind of getting parts. I knew that I was gonna do it
- 2:46:10and one of the things I got was Mishi Moto fans and I threw them
- 2:46:13in my car and we did a private day at E Town.
- 2:46:16It was me. I think Skyler and Tom and Bro,
- 2:46:21my car. My car.
- 2:46:23Never in the eight years of ownership has it ever went over
- 2:46:27like 195. Yeah.
- 2:46:29I threw those Mishimoto fans in and literally just driving to
- 2:46:32the track that shows out like 215.
- 2:46:34Why did you change the fans? So like I said, I bought them
- 2:46:36cuz I knew I was gonna turbo the car so I was like all right, I'm
- 2:46:38gonna need upgraded fans and I put them in the car cuz I was
- 2:46:41like, I'm doing this event I might as well put it in now
- 2:46:43whatever, whatever. And.
- 2:46:44Garbage. Absolute garbage.
- 2:46:46I did one lap, it went up to like, I think like 245.
- 2:46:48I don't think Jesus, yeah. If you want a nice OEM variant,
- 2:46:52the IS300 fans are the highest CFM that you can get.
- 2:46:58So I'll tell you something, right now I have that turbo kit
- 2:47:00in my car. I got stock fans, stock route
- 2:47:02and that shit does not overheat. Yeah, you'll just keep it
- 2:47:05happening, baby. Even nothing.
- 2:47:07No problems at all. Nice.
- 2:47:09So the truck stuff don't go to turbo stuff.
- 2:47:11So yeah, I I never really. Saw myself as like owning a
- 2:47:14truck. I never really wanted the daily
- 2:47:15truck or anything like that. And then I started looking.
- 2:47:17And then, like a month in, the more I looked at him, the more I
- 2:47:19saw him on the road, I was like, I really fucking need a truck.
- 2:47:21And then I'm just the same way. I didn't want to.
- 2:47:24I didn't want to buy. Truck.
- 2:47:31That's how they're closing it. Why would I think about this
- 2:47:26Truck and like gas and like what would you need?
- 2:47:28I need it. But then like once you start
- 2:47:29really looking around like how these trucks are pretty.
- 2:47:32Yeah, it's cosy. And The thing is like we always
- 2:47:35needed it and like I had that Forester and like anytime the
- 2:47:37garage that I rent now is down in Edison.
- 2:47:39So before was nice because my. Job that I had was super close
- 2:47:43to the garage. It was like a 10 minute drive,
- 2:47:44but like now that I don't work there anymore, it's like 45
- 2:47:47minutes to go to my garage. So like, take your.
- 2:47:49Garage is down in that area, yes.
- 2:47:52I think you might have just mentioned the town and you don't
- 2:47:53have to disclose it again, but. Dummy.
- 2:47:57Yeah, it's kind of, but it's kind of far.
- 2:47:59It's nice, it's cheap, so I can do whatever I want over there,
- 2:48:01but it's that's. My area doc.
- 2:48:03Is it your dad over there? Yeah, no way.
- 2:48:05I thought you were somewhere up here.
- 2:48:07Really. I live down there.
- 2:48:08I have a garage there and everything.
- 2:48:09Crazy drive every week for us. Oh, what the fuck?
- 2:48:11I drive about. 50 minutes down, Terrible.
- 2:48:14I mean the the tolls on the Turnpike, I think it's like 8
- 2:48:16bucks one way. It's not, it's not the worst,
- 2:48:18but just The thing is, if you want to go down there to work on
- 2:48:21something, it's like you get home from work.
- 2:48:22It's like, do I really want to drive 45 minutes to work on my
- 2:48:24car for an hour? Next time.
- 2:48:25Now you call me if you need something.
- 2:48:27Yeah, now you know so. Before, so like, I'm a resource.
- 2:48:30Before I was bringing stuff down, I had that Forester and it
- 2:48:32was like decent. I could fit wheels in there if I
- 2:48:34put the front. Passenger seat down enough, I'd
- 2:48:37be able to fit a full body kit where like half of it was on the
- 2:48:39front seat. Yeah, it's like I'd make it
- 2:48:41work, but there was always something and just like any
- 2:48:45weekend stuff or just moving, whatever, it's so much more
- 2:48:47convenient to have a truck. So I was looking and I was
- 2:48:50looking at the like. There's, I've realized there's
- 2:48:54two tiers of trucks. There's like the full size
- 2:48:57trucks and the smaller trucks. So there's.
- 2:48:58Yeah, for Toyota, you have the Tondra or you have the Tacoma.
- 2:49:02Yeah, Yeah. For Chevy you have the Silverado
- 2:49:05or the Colorado. For GMC you have the Sierra and
- 2:49:09the. Whatever.
- 2:49:11Whatever. I don't know what they call the
- 2:49:12other one. Then you see and the yeah,
- 2:49:15that's the one that you rented. That's what it is, yeah.
- 2:49:17Oh. No, no, I had the Colorado.
- 2:49:19Yeah, he had a Colorado. Yeah, and then you have four has
- 2:49:21the F1 fifties. I don't know if they have a
- 2:49:22small they have the Rangers, but it up, Maverick.
- 2:49:24Whatever it is, what's the other one?
- 2:49:26Stranger. So I was looking at the.
- 2:49:28I thought it would be nice to get one of the smaller ones.
- 2:49:33I was looking at the smaller ones.
- 2:49:34At first I thought it'd be nice to have some that's like a
- 2:49:36little better on gas. Then you saw it in person and
- 2:49:38you were like, what the fuck is a Maverick?
- 2:49:39Not even that, but I started looking at towing capacities and
- 2:49:42I saw, I think they're at like 4 ish 1000, so like a trailer is
- 2:49:45like at least £1000. The car is another like three, I
- 2:49:49think. My Make sure you Add all of the
- 2:49:51stuff you're bringing. Exactly.
- 2:49:52So the wheels on top of that, whatever else, what other the
- 2:49:54bullshit like that all adds up. You have people in the car,
- 2:49:56whatever it is. So I was looking at the bigger
- 2:49:58trucks and my budget was like around I was hoping to spend.
- 2:50:03From like 6 to like 8, maybe 9 tops and.
- 2:50:07But there's a select few in that middle range, though.
- 2:50:10You can't. I mean, I got my truck.
- 2:50:11I got my truck 5. Yeah, all those.
- 2:50:13So, so everything that I mentioned around like 20-11 to
- 2:50:18like 2014, like you could find them around that.
- 2:50:21And then I ended up finding this thing.
- 2:50:22It's a 2007 Chevy Silverado. It's got 160,000 miles on it.
- 2:50:27It runs mint. Everything works.
- 2:50:29All the like, everything works. Everything's completely fine.
- 2:50:33And I got it for the guy had it listed for three grand.
- 2:50:38What the fuck? Yeah.
- 2:50:36And I picked it up. It was think it was like 20.
- 2:50:37That's like that's a. That's actually done the.
- 2:50:40Only issue is no I picked this truck up for trailering right?
- 2:50:45Tell me the frame is. Trucks a little rusty.
- 2:50:49Fuck, that's, yeah, but but they're they're all gonna be.
- 2:50:52Yeah, exactly. So I mean, this one's a little
- 2:50:54more than the normal rust. So it's like, Go look at that
- 2:50:57green Silverado outside. And yeah, it's.
- 2:50:59Compared. Yeah, when we when we get out of
- 2:51:00here. Check it out.
- 2:51:01Yeah, the the it's Ethan. Can't wait to work on that.
- 2:51:05So I was at Tom was supposed to fix.
- 2:51:09Tom was supposed to do some rust repair for me this past weekend,
- 2:51:11but we ended up spending. Tom was, yeah.
- 2:51:14Instead of spending like 2 hours mounting his kit and like then
- 2:51:17wet sanding afterwards, I think we spent like 4 hours mounting
- 2:51:19the kit because nothing fits. So he definitely he definitely
- 2:51:22owes you some labor though A. Little bit, no.
- 2:51:25Tom's also, Tom. You got to rebuild the whole
- 2:51:28truck. No, Tom said.
- 2:51:29Tom said he'll, he'll take it one week and like, I'll take his
- 2:51:31truck, he'll take my truck and we'll make it work.
- 2:51:33But but yeah, I literally picked it up for trailering, and it's
- 2:51:35so rusty in the back that the hitch ended up actually, like,
- 2:51:37rusting and falling. So yeah.
- 2:51:39Such. A little stuff I have like, hey
- 2:51:40man, I went under mine once in the fucking shock.
- 2:51:43Mount was completely detached. Yeah, you went under.
- 2:51:44You're like, I'm never going under again.
- 2:51:46This is fine. Yeah.
- 2:51:46I was like, wow, that looks like a really hard job.
- 2:51:49Didn't even call Ethan. I just brought it to a fucking
- 2:51:51what is it? Spring and spring and something
- 2:51:53in Hackensack? They work on trucks.
- 2:51:56Nice. That's where you go when you
- 2:51:58lost. All, yeah, you go.
- 2:52:00Right there. This one's not that bad.
- 2:52:01There's there's a couple spots where like the framer like
- 2:52:03opened up. So like we're just going to
- 2:52:05strengthen that part and then we're just going to plate the
- 2:52:07rear section just to mount the the hitch back in it's.
- 2:52:10Not that bad. I basically never work on the
- 2:52:12truck unless it's. If it's engine related I'll work
- 2:52:14on it, but if it's. You don't work on the ship.
- 2:52:16So it seems like this truck is either.
- 2:52:18Yeah. Seems like this truck is good.
- 2:52:20The real test is gonna be driving the final belt.
- 2:52:22Yeah, 16 hours. All you have to worry about is
- 2:52:24rust. The trans suspension, so you're
- 2:52:27the. Trans.
- 2:52:27I know the trans is good cuz we I was told by trans mine never
- 2:52:32went. Really.
- 2:52:33Yeah. All right.
- 2:52:34I don't. Know.
- 2:52:36There we go. I'm super gentle on it.
- 2:52:38I try not to respond and stuff. Yeah, that's the only thing I
- 2:52:40know. I definitely do that.
- 2:52:42Other people do. No, I know these guys are my
- 2:52:44friends and they're gonna start calling bullshit on me, but I
- 2:52:46don't for the most part. I know I've done it.
- 2:52:49But. You have to.
- 2:52:51What are you about is I'll not floor it and let it downshift.
- 2:52:55Yeah, yeah and like bang into fucking second or whatever.
- 2:52:57I will not do that. Because I know it's gonna break.
- 2:52:59I've had this truck for like a month.
- 2:53:01I don't think it's ever seen more than like 25 grand whenever
- 2:53:03the. Yeah, the Rpm's like they
- 2:53:05they're all gonna say I speed and everything and I do speed in
- 2:53:07that truck. But it's like you let it get up
- 2:53:08to it. Yes, always.
- 2:53:10I never floor it from a stop like.
- 2:53:12Same thing with the Forester I I made my shirt, made sure to baby
- 2:53:15it to it. Just like as long as you're not
- 2:53:16beating on the car that I'm and I do feel the trans is slipping
- 2:53:20occasionally. I do, but it's been doing that
- 2:53:22for like a year. Yeah with this one I've heard
- 2:53:24that the I I took a friend with me, this one of my good friends
- 2:53:27he Evan, he's a he knows he's a big he knows he has his own shop
- 2:53:31that he runs. He knows everything about cars.
- 2:53:32And I took it with me take a look at it and I know he said
- 2:53:34that when the trans's are going, you could tell right away
- 2:53:37because the trans fluid is gonna be like way darker and like
- 2:53:39super like cloudy and gross. So the first thing you did when
- 2:53:41we got it, when we got there, he popped the the hood, pulled out
- 2:53:43the the nice, probably so black. Yeah, but he checked mine.
- 2:53:48It said look nice and like the trans is good.
- 2:53:49We took it out. What do you say to you about
- 2:53:51changing the fluid in the trans? He said don't touch it.
- 2:53:53He's like if it's clean, it's not.
- 2:53:54That's what I was told too. Don't touch it, you know?
- 2:53:56I asked, unlined. Some shit.
- 2:53:58Yeah, once I picked it up, we brought it back.
- 2:54:00I was like, all right, what should I do?
- 2:54:01Should I change the fluid? She's like, don't fucking touch
- 2:54:02nothing. He's like, if it works, it
- 2:54:03works. Don't fucking touch it, all
- 2:54:05right, But definitely the oil though.
- 2:54:06Yeah. No, I changed the oil right
- 2:54:07away. Yeah.
- 2:54:07So that was that. The one only thing that I've had
- 2:54:10with that is the low oil level light pops up.
- 2:54:14Which I think is just a sensor. There's a sensor at the bottom
- 2:54:16of the oil pan. Well, when does it?
- 2:54:17Because mine pops up when I'm low on oil.
- 2:54:19So I've checked so it pops up. It pops up.
- 2:54:22That is the most important light ever.
- 2:54:24Yeah, it pops up a lot and like, I check it and it's always
- 2:54:28within like the dots. So it doesn't actually, yeah,
- 2:54:30try to change that sensor, cuz you're gonna love that.
- 2:54:32Yeah, I'm gonna change that sensor.
- 2:54:33And then Tom told me it was probably the sensor, and then my
- 2:54:36friend Evan told me that it's probably there's an oil pickup
- 2:54:39or something in the back, right by where the subframe ends or
- 2:54:43something. He said there's some sort of oil
- 2:54:45pickup, something he's like, if you change that too, He said
- 2:54:47it's not expensive. Do you have an oil pressure
- 2:54:48gauge in there? Yes, because that sensor always
- 2:54:50goes bad, but it's. Not so.
- 2:54:52That was the thing. When I was when I picked it up,
- 2:54:54we were driving back. The oil pressure was around like
- 2:54:57between 30 and 40, which I thought was a little low.
- 2:55:00And then I did the oil change and it popped up to like 40 and
- 2:55:03every once in a while it drops down again.
- 2:55:05But it only dropped when it's warm but 30.
- 2:55:08It depends on your RPM, yeah, but that doesn't.
- 2:55:10Seem I don't worry about it. Yeah, I looked it up by Google
- 2:55:12but it seemed fine. Google told me I should be good
- 2:55:14so. Yeah, you're lit.
- 2:55:15Perfect. All right.
- 2:55:17Before we me and you just have a talk for the, yeah, next four
- 2:55:19days let's do questions. It'll pee real quick and then
- 2:55:22we'll yeah, that's fine. And then?
- 2:55:25Have the bladder of a fucking. Yo, Frankie, That fucking
- 2:55:27transit slipping and you want to take that shit to Final Bow
- 2:55:30Carl, stop. Crying, bruh.
- 2:55:34I got a truck. With a fresh frame replacement
- 2:55:36not going in that. Do back singing.
- 2:55:42This guy is going to fucking my truck is mate.
- 2:55:47Tell him. Tell him.
- 2:55:48Tell him about my truck. Well, Ethan's coming, yeah.
- 2:55:52I'm going to fly if he's taking his truck.
- 2:55:55Me, bro. You don't believe in?
- 2:55:59Come here. I've gone to your own friend.
- 2:56:02That's fucked, Ethan said. He's gonna fly.
- 2:56:04He's. Gonna fly?
- 2:56:07Yeah, I'd rather. Fly crazy.
- 2:56:11That's crazy. But why did you just have to say
- 2:56:14that it it you have been noticing it's slepping.
- 2:56:17I've been noticing it for years, yeah.
- 2:56:19I didn't know that. It ain't no thing, baby.
- 2:56:24I don't give a fuck. Because he could run at you into
- 2:56:27the ground when he's by himself. I'm on dude.
- 2:56:29I'm on year like 7 the last. Time somebody's car died.
- 2:56:33Buddy. Buddy.
- 2:56:36Bucko. Which time are we talking
- 2:56:38remember? Alexis, that was.
- 2:56:42Left behind somewhere. OK, all right, all right.
- 2:56:45I did lose a car, but that car was horrible.
- 2:56:48Oh yeah, wait a minute. This.
- 2:56:52Oh, the last time we went to final bout, Carl was actually
- 2:56:55there and he drove his mighty Toyota.
- 2:57:00It was not the mightiest of the Toyota, the great Toyota truck
- 2:57:04of the Toyota family not towing a goddamn thing.
- 2:57:07And he goes, and I got a phone call from Chris.
- 2:57:10Yeah, so the trans is slipping on this thing.
- 2:57:12I'm like. It wasn't just that shit was
- 2:57:13bucking. Bull.
- 2:57:15We are going to die. Malcolm was there.
- 2:57:18Yes, we. Were going to die.
- 2:57:19So I said, all right, Carl, I guess I'm going to tow your car
- 2:57:22back. Nah, but guess what?
- 2:57:24And we brought up the trans slipping.
- 2:57:26Remember? And my truck?
- 2:57:27I was like, I don't know if my trans is going to make it
- 2:57:29because I don't know how much this once.
- 2:57:30You say. Once you said your trans thing,
- 2:57:33yeah. Then you were like, fuck it, I'm
- 2:57:34scrapping it, junk it. We junked Carl's Toyota on the
- 2:57:37way back from found about. My I don't want to hear any of
- 2:57:39my Toyota now. Yeah, my Toyota.
- 2:57:42Now I had my truck, so they all got in the truck.
- 2:57:46We all got no way I was going. To go.
- 2:57:49Somebody came and picked it up for 300.
- 2:57:51No way. Yeah, I think it was.
- 2:57:52You sold it that quick? Yeah, immediately.
- 2:57:54It was a junk. We'd sell it.
- 2:57:55We'd. I had the title.
- 2:57:56In the glove box, I had the title in the glove box.
- 2:57:58We gave, I did that. We gave Carl two options.
- 2:58:02We were like, look, I tow it back, we might make it.
- 2:58:05We probably will, because it's a Chevy.
- 2:58:07This is the actual literal words you said.
- 2:58:10I think we might make it. Junket or scrap?
- 2:58:12It we might not. But dude, let's.
- 2:58:15Wrap it or leave it. Yo, the Sequoia be MIT, bro.
- 2:58:18I just drove that shit huh? To fucking Virginia this past
- 2:58:22weekend. OK, well, in another world,
- 2:58:25we'll find out. Yeah, in this world, Ethan.
- 2:58:27Would come the final bout if we were in the Sequoia.
- 2:58:29No, you wouldn't. I have a TV in there.
- 2:58:31You got a TV in yours? I can put one in it.
- 2:58:33Uh. Huh.
- 2:58:35Not a Panasonic one. Hey man.
- 2:58:38High tech shit. All right, let's leave these
- 2:58:40questions. We'll be doing this all night.
- 2:58:43Sequoia. Yeah, next time I'll try to
- 2:58:45scared to see these questions. There's a lot.
- 2:58:47I'll try to be a little more prepared for Next time.
- 2:58:49Be a little more structured. Oh, there doesn't need to be any
- 2:58:51structure. Don't worry.
- 2:58:52What? No, but like more of more of a
- 2:58:55drifting. So I think there's a lot to say
- 2:58:56about doing stuff and getting into drifting and stuff.
- 2:58:58Hey, we didn't even get into aliens.
- 2:59:01Yeah bro, that's another one. Just.
- 2:59:02You want to see, did you did you Scroll down the questions you
- 2:59:05know? We gotta do.
- 2:59:06There's a lot. Jesus Christ.
- 2:59:08Yes, Sir. I'm not asking all these, so I'm
- 2:59:10gonna pick and choose. Carl, you go.
- 2:59:12Through Yeah, Go. Through you're releasing another
- 2:59:14batch soon, you know most talking about you're gonna brown
- 2:59:17out. Yeah, I figured.
- 2:59:18So just so everyone knows, I was gonna make a post about it, but
- 2:59:21I haven't yet. We're gonna ask for the body.
- 2:59:23Yeah. So the main thing is that I was
- 2:59:27gonna post about I haven't yet. There's another producer we're
- 2:59:29gonna use. We're finally gonna get rid of
- 2:59:31this. We have three kits that still
- 2:59:32need to be shipped. By the end of this year, we're
- 2:59:35gonna have a producer where we'll be able to supply kits.
- 2:59:37Like normally. I'm also gonna set up some sort
- 2:59:38of I'm gonna keep stuff in stock where we'll have batches made
- 2:59:42and I'll keep them in stock here so we'll be able to sell them.
- 2:59:44So whoever wants a kit, hopefully by the end of this
- 2:59:46year we'll be able to do that. There's also plans.
- 2:59:49I wasn't gonna talk about this, but there's also plans.
- 2:59:51I'm gonna make a lip kit version.
- 2:59:53Of the kit that we have now. So you could use stock front
- 2:59:56bumper, stock rear bumper. The side kit's going to be a
- 2:59:58little smaller and there's also I think two other iterations of
- 3:00:01two other kits I want to make. So that's all in the works.
- 3:00:04It's all kind of sketched out a little bit.
- 3:00:06It's going to take what I want to do is I want to make sure I
- 3:00:08get to this producer and things are going super well.
- 3:00:10They're already making the trunk wings for us and things look
- 3:00:12really good. So as long as everything's
- 3:00:14working out well with them, I'm gonna push way harder to make
- 3:00:17sure everything comes out, cuz we have so many fucking parts.
- 3:00:19And if people need anymore info, you already heard it on the
- 3:00:21podcast. Like, they all know now how
- 3:00:23crazy it is. Yeah, it's it's like I didn't
- 3:00:26even get into a quarter of how fucking shitty this whole
- 3:00:30process has been. But it's it's been definitely a
- 3:00:32learning curve. Definitely super thankful I've
- 3:00:34met some super cool people along the way.
- 3:00:35Everyone's been super helpful, everyone's super nice.
- 3:00:37The fact that everyone's so interested in the kids?
- 3:00:39Fucking awesome too. So it sucks cuz we got to a
- 3:00:41point now where Origin and your OS kind of caught up a little
- 3:00:45bit there. Well their stuff is cool.
- 3:00:48I do like some parts of each kit, but I think it's just it's
- 3:00:53a it's a copy and paste versus like taking this and like making
- 3:00:58it work to it. You know what I mean?
- 3:00:59Yeah, the EUR one is definitely a EUR kit.
- 3:01:01There's there's parts of it that like you don't realize until you
- 3:01:03see. I know things, for example, like
- 3:01:05the way that both of those kits flare out with the side skirts.
- 3:01:08I know I have an issue with my kit where it's like if you're
- 3:01:11not running aggressive wheels in the back, it sticks out a bunch.
- 3:01:13With those kits, they have even more of like a little.
- 3:01:15Aggressive thing, yeah. So good luck.
- 3:01:17Running in that look normal? Yeah, exactly.
- 3:01:19That's why without like the BM kid on the is because of that
- 3:01:22block. Yeah it's it's a little it's a
- 3:01:24little hard. It's like one of those things
- 3:01:25where like unless like you're actually you actually spend time
- 3:01:28with the car or like you've worked those little stuff or
- 3:01:31like you've fit different wheels and stuff like you don't know
- 3:01:33that stuff until you actually see it in front of you, so.
- 3:01:35I like the EUR one cuz it looks like a euro, so my out of those
- 3:01:39two kits I like the origin from Bumper the best.
- 3:01:44It does look more so like yours. I like that one better.
- 3:01:47I like how they have that more flat section of the thing.
- 3:01:49Yeah, the the EUR one is cool because it's definitely a little
- 3:01:53more, has a little bit more flair to it.
- 3:01:57It's definitely different. It's a little different, more
- 3:01:59than normal. It's like, it's like, whoa, what
- 3:02:00the fuck is that? Someone's called it like it
- 3:02:03looked like it has like a chipmunk face or something like
- 3:02:04that. Like it's it's cool, I like it.
- 3:02:07The side skirts, I think the side skirts are pretty similar,
- 3:02:09both things. The the one thing that I didn't
- 3:02:11do with my kit that they did was I'm pretty sure theirs goes
- 3:02:14under the door. I didn't do that with mine,
- 3:02:16which I really tight fit, which I really wanted to fucking do
- 3:02:18because the is side skirts like for example for Sebs.
- 3:02:21He doesn't even have to mount those side scripts because they
- 3:02:23fit under the door and the trims that go on the thing literally
- 3:02:26fit right in and it fits perfect and it's sick.
- 3:02:28But the problem is with ours you have more ridges and that door
- 3:02:31gap is way side or. Thin.
- 3:02:32I remember looking at that. So there's no chance you're
- 3:02:34going to be able to do it. So yeah, that's when I saw this
- 3:02:37rear bumper origin is. Crazy.
- 3:02:42It's cool, but I think it's a little too much.
- 3:02:45Once again, this copy and paste, like you just put that fat thing
- 3:02:47in the back and then just kind of tried to make it work.
- 3:02:49I think it's a little too much for what it's supposed to be.
- 3:02:53Your Ross did a little bit of a better a job of it they at first
- 3:02:57theirs was just like a rear bumper lip thing that they made
- 3:03:00into a full rear bumper. It's cool, but it just it's a
- 3:03:02little too triangular shaped rather than like that.
- 3:03:05That's what I mean when I say it looks like a EUR kit.
- 3:03:07Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's got that cool dress I
- 3:03:09like. There's a dress.
- 3:03:10I think there's like 2 dress. There's one or two dudes that
- 3:03:14have the Origin kit in the States.
- 3:03:16Now that I've seen the EUR kit, I haven't seen in the States.
- 3:03:19Yet, no, I haven't seen it either.
- 3:03:20Yeah, I don't know. Trying to get one here so we can
- 3:03:23put it on something and see what it looks.
- 3:03:24What I really want to do is once I have this new producer and we
- 3:03:26have kids like flying, no problem.
- 3:03:28I want to take my kit, the EUR kit and the Origin kit, even if
- 3:03:33I have to buy them whatever and just do like a side by side with
- 3:03:35all of them I think. We'll do.
- 3:03:37That'd be fucking sweet. We'll make that happen.
- 3:03:37Yeah. Yeah.
- 3:03:39Yeah, I want to. Get, I want to get the EUR, so
- 3:03:42yeah. We should do a video and and
- 3:03:44compare. Yeah yeah, yeah.
- 3:03:45And I also wanted to to make a video.
- 3:03:47Like I said I have a million fucking video ideas.
- 3:03:49But another one would be kind of how those kits sit compared to
- 3:03:54each other versus like stock body, like how much it actually
- 3:03:57goes down. Because our kits, what I I tried
- 3:03:59my best with the the kit that we have is like it's kind of like a
- 3:04:02if you had a lip on your front bumper and like a little
- 3:04:04sidestep on the side. So it's like, it's not with S
- 3:04:07chassis, everything sits like super, super far down, which
- 3:04:10makes sense because those cars come with small wheels.
- 3:04:12Once you're on Eighteens is big or whatever, so it like works.
- 3:04:14Same problem though like PS do sits higher for our card even if
- 3:04:18you even if you want to run eighteens on our car like Fender
- 3:04:22to lip with no kit. By the time your Fender to lip
- 3:04:24it's like you're you're barely off the ground.
- 3:04:26Like it's really hard to do. So I'd really want to make a
- 3:04:28video like how it is, how it compares with all the kits and
- 3:04:31all that stuff. So I have, like I said, million
- 3:04:33fucking ideas, Million videos. So I mean.
- 3:04:34Definitely like that idea, Yeah, yeah.
- 3:04:36Get all three kits and just put them side by side.
- 3:04:37Super Life asked. Are you Russian?
- 3:04:41No, I'm not rushing and actually I I had that the I brought up
- 3:04:45the thing about the Turkish wrestling and we ain't really
- 3:04:48get much out of that, man. Oh my God, yeah, he's a fucking
- 3:04:51pro pro Turkish wrestler you're never talking about.
- 3:04:53It's crazy. I thought, oh, wait, I do.
- 3:04:56Remember I'm. Really.
- 3:04:57About that. Yeah, I was like.
- 3:04:58Pictures I was gonna. Slug wrestling.
- 3:05:00Oh my God, no. He's into it.
- 3:05:01Do they oil each other up and they fucking like the way you
- 3:05:03they? He explained it.
- 3:05:04But like, you literally have to, like, put your hand in the guy's
- 3:05:06pants. Like, flip them over to fucking.
- 3:05:09So we don't remember. I love you.
- 3:05:10Thank you for everything you've ever done for me.
- 3:05:12I fucking love you. Josh MK7, this is to me.
- 3:05:15Carl, when are you going to buy A1?
- 3:05:16Jayz, stop. I'm still poor.
- 3:05:18I was talking to him outside. I like I was saying I had my car
- 3:05:22stock motor for as long as I did because of reliability.
- 3:05:25And please do that for as long as you.
- 3:05:26Can I know? But that one, Jayz sounds OK.
- 3:05:28It does sound sick, but it also costs a lot of money.
- 3:05:30It costs too much. It's also a huge, huge headache.
- 3:05:33You have to pay attention a lot more.
- 3:05:34Stuff this is if this is the Josh that I think that is and.
- 3:05:39I didn't met him Josh MK7. I might have met him last night
- 3:05:42cuz on we played video games last night and there were a
- 3:05:45couple new faces. Big video game guy over here.
- 3:05:47I just. I just like.
- 3:05:48It's fun to me. I've never played video games,
- 3:05:50never been a streamer. But now when I play with
- 3:05:53everyone else and I get to talk to him, I'm like, this is sick.
- 3:05:55Do you do any of the SIM racing stuff?
- 3:05:57No. I've tried.
- 3:05:58I've started, but I've done it on like bullshit ones are like I
- 3:06:01didn't really actually. I'll do it like if I'm at his.
- 3:06:03I really want to try the Seb in at ERA.
- 3:06:06They have like a full fucking setup.
- 3:06:08I want to try that thing. Yeah.
- 3:06:09Might be Seb Secret Sauce, man. Maybe honestly.
- 3:06:12That's how he did that lean. That's exactly what we said.
- 3:06:14No, that's exactly what we said. When he came back, all he was
- 3:06:16doing was playing. I don't know if it's a Seto or
- 3:06:18whatever it is, but like all he does is the SIM stuff and like.
- 3:06:21That's how he's staying up to up to Paul.
- 3:06:23He's. The thing is, so you remember
- 3:06:25when Alex argued in our group chat with me, right?
- 3:06:27And say, Oh yeah, how can you say that?
- 3:06:30That's I think if you're doing. Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 3:06:32Alex was trolling you. I think if you're doing SIM.
- 3:06:35If you're starting off on SIM and going to cars, it's probably
- 3:06:38a little harder because of the the thought of not even the
- 3:06:41thought of but like the the G forces and like the actual
- 3:06:45physical, like being thrown out our heart.
- 3:06:47That's really hard to transition over to.
- 3:06:48But if the if you're already drifting, you know how to do it
- 3:06:50and then you're doing some stuff too.
- 3:06:52I think it could only help. I've been thinking about getting
- 3:06:54some set. Of hands, like the hand motions
- 3:06:56and like I've heard that you can't.
- 3:06:57I haven't. Like I said, I've played on some
- 3:06:59bullshit setups. I've heard that it the the wheel
- 3:07:01doesn't feed itself. No, I I I flick it like every
- 3:07:05time. And then what that does for me?
- 3:07:07Is when I get into my actual car and I do the same thing, it like
- 3:07:12it's just completely different and I'm like it benefits in my
- 3:07:16opinion cuz then it's like quicker.
- 3:07:18That was another thing I wanted to bring up.
- 3:07:20I didn't talk to you about this yet.
- 3:07:21One of the issues that when I started drifting the this
- 3:07:24chassis, the Brzfrs, it was obviously I fucking sucked.
- 3:07:30I still suck, but the like it was really hard for me to be.
- 3:07:40The car was also on the floor. I'm pretty sure you remember
- 3:07:35from that day that we were recording the video, it was
- 3:07:37super hard for me to do transitions.
- 3:07:38Like any time I went to transition, the car would just
- 3:07:40spin. Yeah, it was set up really dumb,
- 3:07:43but like the a lot of I heard the electric power steering is
- 3:07:46part of the problem. Yeah, there's this thing now.
- 3:07:49I remember when I first got the car on the forums I saw someone
- 3:07:52went to RadioShack and RadioShack was still a thing.
- 3:07:54They went to RadioShack and they bought a regular volume dial and
- 3:07:58somehow they wired it into their Electro power steering where
- 3:08:01they could like control control it.
- 3:08:03That's and apparently it made a huge difference.
- 3:08:04Now with drifting, I had no idea.
- 3:08:08Turn it to a yeah yeah, park it to 11.
- 3:08:11Yeah, literally watch this shit. The way that that Electro power
- 3:08:15steering works, apparently is it adjusts according to speed.
- 3:08:19So the faster you go, the less it adjusts.
- 3:08:21So thinking back on it now, I think the reason why, I mean,
- 3:08:25like I said, I sucked, I didn't drink, I didn't drift a
- 3:08:28different car before, like I didn't really know that much
- 3:08:30about drifting. It took a while, whatever, the
- 3:08:31whole learning curve, that whole thing.
- 3:08:32But I think part of the reason why the learning curve took way
- 3:08:35longer was because of that now there's power steering
- 3:08:38controller kits that you could buy.
- 3:08:40Really. Where literally you splice in
- 3:08:42two wires and on my dash on the side I have a trunk button and
- 3:08:45right next there's a dial and I could literally put.
- 3:08:47The So you have it in your I have it in my car.
- 3:08:48Yeah. So I'm working on the like a
- 3:08:51distribution thing for it where I'm gonna sell it through the
- 3:08:53site too and it's literally So not only can you adjust the
- 3:08:57power steer, you can make it like not adjust, not not not
- 3:09:03assisting or fully assisting or anywhere in between.
- 3:09:05Oh wow. Not only that but it also puts
- 3:09:07it in a spot where it's consistent where wherever you
- 3:09:10put it, there's no more. Like it's not like the faster
- 3:09:13you go it assists. They like wherever it's at, it
- 3:09:15stays at the whole time. Deal.
- 3:09:16And I noticed it makes such a huge fucking difference.
- 3:09:18That's. What we needed from Yagis RX8.
- 3:09:20Yeah, So I remember we were talking about that a while ago.
- 3:09:23Yeah. So I'm pretty sure that would be
- 3:09:24a huge thing. Would help it too.
- 3:09:25Damn. Yeah, So.
- 3:09:26Power, power in your control is a huge thing.
- 3:09:28Every anyone that's listening that's drifting these chassis
- 3:09:31100% recommend power steering controller.
- 3:09:34There's a few companies that kind of sell them now we're
- 3:09:37gonna sell them through our website and a little bit we're
- 3:09:38gonna have our own version of it where it's like the one that you
- 3:09:40buy now you have to do a little bit of kind of hands on and
- 3:09:43make. It like a more with us.
- 3:09:44It's gonna plug and play. You just fucking put it in, it's
- 3:09:47ready to go so and it's gonna be in stock.
- 3:09:48I think the main company that does them now is like out in
- 3:09:52somewhere in a different country.
- 3:09:53So it like takes a little bit to ship in.
- 3:09:54We're gonna have them in stock and ready to go whenever.
- 3:09:56So that's a huge thing. That's pretty cool.
- 3:09:58Yeah, it's sick. What's life like with two first
- 3:10:01names? So that's a made it.
- 3:10:05So that's another thing. I don't know if you guys know
- 3:10:08like it's David, Bob. Like my middle name is straight
- 3:10:11up Bob. It's Bob.
- 3:10:12It's not Robert. It's not anything else like my.
- 3:10:14I'll show you my license right now it's David, Bob Stelback.
- 3:10:18And. What is the?
- 3:10:19I didn't even. Yeah, it's David.
- 3:10:21Bob. Don't be.
- 3:10:22I thought that was your last name.
- 3:10:23That was a little fucking data. No, man.
- 3:10:25No one was gonna fucking tell me.
- 3:10:29No, man. Yeah, Not a lot of people know.
- 3:10:31Yeah, my middle name is straight Up Bob on my license.
- 3:10:34And everything. So when did you decide I'm
- 3:10:36going, Dave, Bob. So to be completely honest, was
- 3:10:41when I was younger. And you thought, you're gonna be
- 3:10:43a rapper. No, not even that.
- 3:10:45No. I had a Facebook.
- 3:10:46I had a Facebook. And I got in a little bit of
- 3:10:48trouble. So like, I was like, what else
- 3:10:49could I do? And like, I noticed people,
- 3:10:51people were using their first names and middle names.
- 3:10:53I was like, yeah, David Bob. So I literally did David, Bob.
- 3:10:55And everything since then has been David Bob.
- 3:10:56You. Just did it cuz you got in
- 3:10:57Facebook jail and do it it it's stuck so well.
- 3:10:59It stuck so well. Everybody knows David, Bob and
- 3:11:01it like it just has this little. Yeah, now you're that guy where
- 3:11:05you can't say his first name by itself.
- 3:11:06Yeah, did it, David. Bob Damian wants to know.
- 3:11:08Does he want to rent the sex dungeon Airbnb with?
- 3:11:11Me. Privately.
- 3:11:11Soon. Yeah, right.
- 3:11:13So that I'm pretty sure. I'm sure he has his own sex
- 3:11:19dungeon that I would very happily rent and kind of
- 3:11:23explore. But now he's probably talking
- 3:11:24about. I don't know if you guys saw the
- 3:11:25Airbnb that we stayed at in Where the Fuck Is It In Erie?
- 3:11:30Where we did at Vibes? At Vibes.
- 3:11:33No. Bro, wait, I think I saw this.
- 3:11:35Story How weird was it, dude? We went to so me and cautious
- 3:11:40that's everything up. Like I said, she's the fucking.
- 3:11:41Best she doesn't. Absolutely fucking amazing in
- 3:11:45every way. Censor form sets everything up.
- 3:11:46Helps me out with everything. Like literally a doll.
- 3:11:48Love her to death, she does. The cautious shout out, Yeah,
- 3:11:51there's so much more I can say but wait now.
- 3:11:53But we were looking for. So when we were going to Vibes,
- 3:11:55it was me and Seb. We were supposed to have a
- 3:11:57couple other friends join and then everyone's cars broke,
- 3:12:00trailers broke, cars broke, whatever, Nobody shut.
- 3:12:02UPS was me and Seb and little David was with us.
- 3:12:06B Games, I don't know. I don't know if you guys know
- 3:12:08who B Games is. Why do I?
- 3:12:10Why does that same photographer he shoots, yeah.
- 3:12:12OK, photographer, he came with us and so you have photo
- 3:12:15evidence. I don't know if anyone else was
- 3:12:17there too, but she ended up finding a spot.
- 3:12:19It was an Airbnb that was like I think like a hundred 150 bucks
- 3:12:22and it was like the cheapest thing in the area is cheaper
- 3:12:24than hotels, cheaper than everything.
- 3:12:25And dude, it was like a girls getaway place.
- 3:12:27The whole place was pink. There was like little swings.
- 3:12:31There was a fucking ball pit in one of the rooms.
- 3:12:33There was a I'll show you guys pictures do. 15 Yeah, even
- 3:12:37cheaper. Than God probably got to go
- 3:12:38right now that's it's an eerie Pennsylvania and it was it was
- 3:12:43fucking awesome was the most but one of the nights we came back
- 3:12:45we're like drinking reality like bowling or something dude.
- 3:12:47We came back. We walked to the bolt, the room
- 3:12:49with the ball pit, and I don't know if it was like little David
- 3:12:52that threw a couple of balls out, but somebody did.
- 3:12:53And all of a sudden, like, it's like 1:00 in the morning, we're
- 3:12:56on this mission to take every single ball out of the ball pit.
- 3:12:59And we spent like an hour of just throwing every single ball
- 3:13:02out. So the entire room was filled
- 3:13:04like, it's like a big ball pit. And then the ball pit itself was
- 3:13:06a completely empty. As well, if you just found a
- 3:13:08bunch of used needles at the bottom, there was there was some
- 3:13:10stuff in there. It wasn't that gross.
- 3:13:11Was like rappers and like like a lollipops and like rings.
- 3:13:14Like, just like random ship. Yeah.
- 3:13:16Rain. But uh, yeah, Damien,

- 3:15:22least one event every single month.
- 3:15:24And we were was. That the year that you won, that

- 3:15:34group the best of times was fucking awesome.
- 3:15:36I love those guys. So the best brown dude on on
- 3:15:40auto Real dream. I don't know.
- 3:15:42I'm the only, like, white, white guy there.
- 3:15:44You're probably the only white guy, yeah, cuz yeah, Diego's.
- 3:15:47Diego's also strategy. Yeah, you're the only one
- 3:15:49Colombian. Sorry, It's Frankie.
- 3:15:52I can relate now. I was literally out to dinner
- 3:15:54the other night and I was like, I'm, I'm the only white person.
- 3:15:57And there was like 20 of us, 25 of us.
- 3:16:00I was like, oh shit, I'm the only white person here.
- 3:16:02Isn't that cool? Your culture just fucked.
- 3:16:04Yeah, I was like, oh, I I didn't know.
- 3:16:05That was the thing. And that really, technically,
- 3:16:07for a while, technically I'm Polish.
- 3:16:08I'm like Europeans I'm. Like Sue, be 664.
- 3:16:10Always got the best questions bro.
- 3:16:12He's got three here, but I'm going to pick one because we're
- 3:16:13going to. We're well run through.
- 3:16:15We don't. Answer all of them go through
- 3:16:16favorite Polish phrase. Oh, that's hard.
- 3:16:22I don't know. So the way Polish works is
- 3:16:24there's a word for fuck. The word is kurva.
- 3:16:27Kurva KK you are, it's a W but in Polish it's like a V va and
- 3:16:33like this word you could use in any part of any sentence and it
- 3:16:37makes sense. So it's like La Verga in
- 3:16:39Spanish? Yeah, exactly.
- 3:16:41It's just like it works. Bro, well, I worked on a
- 3:16:43construction site. I didn't know what that word
- 3:16:45meant. I asked my one friend that was
- 3:16:46working. I was like, yo, what does that
- 3:16:47word mean? Bro pretty much means fuck.
- 3:16:50You could use it as a noun. You could use it as a verb, as
- 3:16:52an like, literally any part of any sentence for anything.
- 3:16:55You could use it. And there is I could.
- 3:16:57You use fuck the same way when I was no, not.
- 3:17:00This is like an extra level of that.
- 3:17:01So like I I'm looking to make sure there's no someone's gonna
- 3:17:05say something or add to it. There's fuck wasn't gonna say I
- 3:17:10lost what I'm trying to thought. God damn.
- 3:17:11It you could say fucking. Well, you could say this word in
- 3:17:13any place. Yeah, any part of any sentence.
- 3:17:15It's like another level. There's another level of it.
- 3:17:18Yeah. There's.
- 3:17:19Yeah. I don't know.
- 3:17:20I lost. Yeah.
- 3:17:20You were probably gonna give us an example.
- 3:17:22I was, no, not even an example. But I was just gonna explain
- 3:17:24that. So I was gonna say I worked as a
- 3:17:27little bit of construction back with Polish people.
- 3:17:30And like, I don't think you guys realize.
- 3:17:33I mean, I mean you Carl, you might have the same with what
- 3:17:36language do you guys speak? Tagalog, Tagalog.
- 3:17:38Like Filipino? Okay.
- 3:17:39So I don't know if it's the same thing, but like those people
- 3:17:44that, like, I speak affluently simple.
- 3:17:46It's their only language and like the way that they.
- 3:17:50Cover their shit. That they Yeah And the phrases
- 3:17:52they have and the way they like, bro.
- 3:17:55I worked like I said construction with these guys and
- 3:17:58there was number part of the day where I wasn't like on my ass,
- 3:18:01like laughing. It's just like the way that they
- 3:18:02phrase stuff. The way that they put in like
- 3:18:04whatever. It's I fucking love being
- 3:18:05Polish. I'm so thankful that a Polish
- 3:18:07have no idea. Like speak it, reader, write
- 3:18:08everything. I'm so thankful for it.
- 3:18:10I was never surrounded by so many Polish people.
- 3:18:12And when you and all your friends come here, yeah,
- 3:18:13literally. And then it's like different
- 3:18:15language. I'm like, dude, it gets even
- 3:18:17great. So I grew up without like many
- 3:18:19pull. I had one best friend that was
- 3:18:21Polish themes Sav. He's in the Coast Guard now.
- 3:18:23He's in like fucking Florida or Washington where the fuck he is.
- 3:18:26And but once I I had a couple of foolish friends like other stuff
- 3:18:29but like my meeting group wasn't but like once being cautious
- 3:18:31started dating all her friends are fucking Polish.
- 3:18:34And then now being close with Mike and like all his friends
- 3:18:37cuz they're all for long since all Paul locks do it.
- 3:18:39It's fucking. Yeah, there's like a lot of you
- 3:18:41guys, bro. It's fucking.
- 3:18:42Came out of the woodwork. Everyone, everyone knows how to
- 3:18:45drink. Everyone loves drinking.
- 3:18:46Everyone's always just talking shit, just being a fun of you.
- 3:18:48It's like the most beautiful thing ever.

- 3:19:29That's why we have so many Polish people all Polaks over
- 3:19:32there. Yeah, hell.
- 3:19:33Uh, Wallington, Garfield, Half of Clifton.
- 3:19:35Yeah, it's all polucks over there.
- 3:19:37Front St., Josh says. Just want to say he is one of
- 3:19:39the most selfless people I know and thankful to have him as a
- 3:19:42friend. That's the nicest shit I've ever
- 3:19:45come here to cry. Thanks, Josh.
- 3:19:47That is the nicest thing I've ever heard Josh say in all 12
- 3:19:50years of knowing. Well, I haven't known Josh that.
- 3:19:52Yeah, Josh was super, super intimidating in the beginning.
- 3:19:55Yeah, me and Ethan are like, oh, OK, I guess we're just shit.
- 3:19:58I'm still super. Intimidated by Josh?
- 3:20:00Yeah, he was super intimidating. Kind of just like seeing him
- 3:20:02anywhere. Kind of just like not very
- 3:20:03talkative, very just like closed off, always kind of just like
- 3:20:05pissed off looking. Josh is so fucking nice.
- 3:20:07Yeah, Josh is the. Man, he's also hilarious.
- 3:20:09Yeah, it out at your house, Ethan.
- 3:20:13I was just cracking up at everything.
- 3:20:14Pool party. Yeah, that you didn't fucking
- 3:20:17fucking showing up. Hey, man.
- 3:20:19Ethan prepared all this nice shit for us, had us over at his
- 3:20:22house. Who was he nice enough to have
- 3:20:24us? I had plans, man.
- 3:20:26Oh shit, Frankie was. I'm going to come by.
- 3:20:29I'm going to come by. Hey man, I had plans.
- 3:20:32I should. I don't know.
- 3:20:34I don't know if you remember Ethan way, way back in the day.
- 3:20:37I think. Honestly, before I was friends
- 3:20:38with any of you guys, I came to pick up wheels from you.
- 3:20:41Heavy battles. Super.
- 3:20:43Were they yours or your brothers?
- 3:20:44I don't remember who's ever they were.
- 3:20:46Yeah, they kept those. I literally fucking like $400.00
- 3:20:49for four. I do.
- 3:20:51I almost actually drove out to Long Island today to go pick up
- 3:20:54a set of battles as they were 17 by 9 and a halfs and they were
- 3:20:59like 350. There are so many questions in
- 3:21:01here regarding the body kit and none of them are really like
- 3:21:03when am I going to get my kit? It's like next, next body kit.
- 3:21:08So yeah, so there's. 2 Yeah, so there's there's probably, I
- 3:21:13wanna say I have two iterations of like the Gen. one body kits I
- 3:21:20wanna make. I'm not gonna go into detail cuz
- 3:21:23I don't know who's listening, who's not listening.
- 3:21:24I don't know where this stuff's gonna go.
- 3:21:25I don't know what companies are gonna get involved with this
- 3:21:27stuff, cuz if you're us and Origin are hopping in and I
- 3:21:29think 1 by 1, clearly a lot of other companies are gonna hop
- 3:21:33in. Took them long enough, yeah.
- 3:21:35I think they just waited to a point where they knew that
- 3:21:37things settled down or things those are getting cheaper,
- 3:21:40everything. Yeah, exactly.
- 3:21:40Those are drift. And then plus, it's like future
- 3:21:43wise. Everything I'm doing now is like
- 3:21:45five years down the line for when this stuff's gonna be
- 3:21:46happening. So yeah, there's at least two
- 3:21:48other iterations I wanna make for this current Gen. and then
- 3:21:52for Gen. to Something's gonna come up.
- 3:21:55I don't know what it is. I haven't.
- 3:21:56I've seen a couple of them in person and like I said, I know
- 3:22:01for sure. The second Gen.
- 3:22:05Canador Mirror Bracket adapter things.
- 3:22:07Those are coming here, yeah? That's another question about
- 3:22:09just new products. Yeah, but we talked about.
- 3:22:10So those are those are there, those are coming up for.
- 3:22:13As for a body kit, I don't really know.
- 3:22:15I might wait until I can get my hands on one for really cheap.
- 3:22:18That's like crashing. I want to get one of those cars.
- 3:22:19So yeah, Rich picked one up. Not the long I don't.
- 3:22:21Know if you know, dude, I love those.
- 3:22:23And it's funny, we were. No, not.
- 3:22:25I mean, the new one, yeah. The new one, the 2nd Gen.
- 3:22:27Yeah, we are. I want a new one to not ruin
- 3:22:29these. I want the first one to ruin.
- 3:22:30Yeah, this not last weekend, but the weekend before we were
- 3:22:34driving Twin Drift at Pocodo. I told Rich cuz Rich drove my
- 3:22:38car a while ago, before it was set up nice and before anything,
- 3:22:41and now it's terrible. It was like, dude, you gotta
- 3:22:43drive. It's set up now in Turbo, but
- 3:22:44he's like, dude, I don't wanna drive it because if I do, I'm
- 3:22:45gonna fall in love. I'm gonna keep that fucking car
- 3:22:47and I don't wanna do it. That's true.
- 3:22:49Yeah. So the kids.
- 3:22:50Kits, kits, kits, kits, body kids.
- 3:22:52They're common, I promise. I promise trends in the last
- 3:22:55three years that made you scratch your head.
- 3:22:57I like that question. Wow, interesting.
- 3:22:59We talk about that. Squee, don't make me read these.
- 3:23:03Fucking names. No.
- 3:23:05I don't know. You can read it.
- 3:23:07You could see it if you want. I don't know those trends.
- 3:23:14Oh, he's a drone Guy. FPV means Drone Guy.
- 3:23:17Oh, sick. Or drone guy.
- 3:23:18Or girl. First of all, let's let's.
- 3:23:20So that was another thing I want to bring up.
- 3:23:21There's nothing I hate more than.
- 3:23:24You want this, Ethan? Hell yeah, Hell yeah.
- 3:23:28You gotta take a sip, at least first.
- 3:23:29Ethan No Sparkling. I've heard the sparkling ones
- 3:23:32are. It's the carbonated.
- 3:23:35What the? Oh, this.
- 3:23:36Oh, I'll show you. Oh.
- 3:23:38Rubber band gum. Put it down.
- 3:23:42I'll show you what this is. I'll show you how this baby
- 3:23:44works. It's a fly gun that Carl gave
- 3:23:47me, Yeah. They had it at Cabela's.
- 3:23:50Oh, saying it looks like a Spiderman web.
- 3:23:51Just like fucking. They got high FPS.
- 3:23:54If you move slow, they won't move.
- 3:23:56Yeah, true. Yeah.
- 3:23:58Trends. Trends.
- 3:24:01I don't know. We're talking about car stuff or
- 3:24:02just. Yeah, I would say car stuff
- 3:24:03like, you know, I know, I mean one thing I feel like in a weird
- 3:24:11way, reps are kind of becoming a little more acceptable.
- 3:24:15Like wheels. People don't bully people for
- 3:24:17Rep wheels anymore. And you don't like this trend
- 3:24:20kind of, I mean that's that's half?
- 3:24:21Joke I don't like. I don't like if it's a.
- 3:24:23I don't like if it's a Rep wheel that looks like a bag of Dicks.
- 3:24:27I think everyone talks shit about how real wheels are so
- 3:24:30expensive. Yeah, like.
- 3:24:31You could get yourself some real wheels for not that fucking
- 3:24:33expensive. There is no reason that you.
- 3:24:36And these replica wheels are kind of expensive.
- 3:24:40Yeah, but you know, no one wants to do the work.
- 3:24:41That's what it is. Yeah, I could just go on.
- 3:24:43You know this website. That's another thing.
- 3:24:45So I've had this car for so long.
- 3:24:47I don't think I've ever actually bought new parts.
- 3:24:51There's you could get stuff for for cheap, man.
- 3:24:54He's just. Like, yeah, he's the same way.
- 3:24:55If it's, I mean, if it's like motor stuff.
- 3:24:57If it's like, I mean, I haven't really touched the motor since I
- 3:25:00turboed it. That was the only time I ever
- 3:25:01touched anything. But like you could get a lot of
- 3:25:04stuff for cheap to use, man, people are letting go of stuff
- 3:25:06for as long as it looks good and you make it look good, then
- 3:25:09sure, but yeah. It's what you make out of slap
- 3:25:11shit on and I don't know. Yeah, I feel like.
- 3:25:15I mean, if the Make sure your car is low too.
- 3:25:17There's no reason that your car should be super tall for no
- 3:25:20reason. How about that?
- 3:25:21Yeah, that shouldn't. It's a little more acceptable
- 3:25:23now, but it shouldn't be. Yeah, it depends on the style
- 3:25:26really. But I feel like more cars should
- 3:25:28be low. Yeah, it keeps things exciting
- 3:25:31and it's just like. Unless you're driving like Josh
- 3:25:33Louise, it doesn't matter. You could be, you could be
- 3:25:35driving fantastic. But if your car is boring, then
- 3:25:37yeah, what's No one's going to pay attention.
- 3:25:39Holy shit. Their cars.
- 3:25:41Their cars are a little tall, but they're fucking cool.
- 3:25:43They. Both.
- 3:25:44I don't think you guys just understand what I just saw just
- 3:25:47now. That was crazy.
- 3:25:47What Frankie said. That same fucking thing in the
- 3:25:51final bout. 2 video or whatever. That video was that same way and
- 3:25:55same execution. If you're, it's a rolling.
- 3:25:57Car shits never change. I think.
- 3:25:58I think, Jake, the rolling car show thing, I think you said
- 3:26:01something we're like, if you don't, I was.
- 3:26:02Like if your car doesn't look good, no one cares.
- 3:26:04Yeah, that's exactly what it is. And how many years ago is that
- 3:26:07exactly? And it's I don't.
- 3:26:08Know, though? Starting to fade away?
- 3:26:09No front streets, see, But that's no but they're cars.
- 3:26:12I'm just smell. We get no, their cars look cool.
- 3:26:15Their cars are definitely cool. They're solid.
- 3:26:16And The thing is like, they're not tall to the point where like
- 3:26:20they don't have like huge gaps in their their their, the front
- 3:26:23fenders. OK, I get that.
- 3:26:24I'll make fun of them for that all day long, but.
- 3:26:26Every time Josh pulls up, here is.
- 3:26:29I could fit bigger things inside the Fender Gap.
- 3:26:32I'm like, dude, come on, man, Yeah, it's a weird.
- 3:26:36I mean, like, I kind of get it. Like I said, the longer I've
- 3:26:39been driving, the more I'm kind of like, all right it.
- 3:26:40Does. I mean, it makes sense.
- 3:26:41It kind of makes sense. But it depends on what you care
- 3:26:43about. And it depends where you're
- 3:26:44driving too. That's another huge fucking
- 3:26:46thing. Notice everyone at US Air.
- 3:26:49If they set their home track, everyone's cars are super low
- 3:26:52and they make it work. But over here.
- 3:26:54Well, it just hasn't hit them. It hasn't hit them yet dude.
- 3:26:56I have a video of me trying to do tree turn where my car was
- 3:27:00even lower than it is now. When you went off, holy, no, I
- 3:27:03didn't go off. But literally the entire video
- 3:27:06is me. Like I'm going, going, I
- 3:27:07initiate and the entire time it's like.
- 3:27:09Bouncing. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 3:27:10Just all fucking. Yeah.
- 3:27:12So I kind of get the especially especially asshole.
- 3:27:16Sorry. Yeah, I guess influence of
- 3:27:20wherever you're at and what you're driving and stuff like
- 3:27:22that goes into a lot of it. I mean, they front street's
- 3:27:32evolved, yeah, they've been. Because we were saying before,
- 3:27:24those cars over there are all super clean.
- 3:27:26They're all super low. There's a reason it works, you
- 3:27:27know. Yeah, I guess when you get put
- 3:27:29in shittier situations, you kind of have to.
- 3:27:33They've already been there, so yeah, exactly.
- 3:27:37We went over a lot of this stuff, so.
- 3:27:40Honestly, I think that that we should end it on that.
- 3:27:42Oh, baby, it's all right. We'll have another one.
- 3:27:44It's fun. I guess I'll ask one more.
- 3:27:46There's one at the top that I was saving for the end, if
- 3:27:49that's all right. Let me see.
- 3:27:53I just want to say, well, I want to ask, do you enjoy the turbo?
- 3:27:58Said, I do so I'm very thankful I did it, but I'm also very
- 3:28:02thankful I did it as far down the line as I did.
- 3:28:04Perfect. I think I I got to a point where
- 3:28:07there was parts of an event where I was driving where I
- 3:28:10realized that like I was clutch, kicking and doing more work just
- 3:28:14to keep up and just to kind of stay in it.
- 3:28:17Yeah. I think I was driving with with
- 3:28:18Hayes then or something and I realized I just like it's just
- 3:28:21it impossible to to be in a good spot or keep up in like a even
- 3:28:26like a safe way when you're driving with people that have
- 3:28:28more power. Like if you're super further in
- 3:28:30the line, just barely keeping up, there's people behind you,
- 3:28:33you're it's just bound to to to cause issues.
- 3:28:35So it pretty much is hand in hand with tandeming.
- 3:28:38Yeah, I. Think driving alone for a while.
- 3:28:40That's the thing. So that's another.
- 3:28:41I drove by myself. I didn't start tandeming until I
- 3:28:43started driving with the rest of the guys from Auto Real Dream.
- 3:28:45And it's it's one of those things that you just build up
- 3:28:48to. And like I said, I've had the
- 3:28:50car forever. I I had the turbo kit in my
- 3:28:53possession, literally sitting at my house for over a year before
- 3:28:56I put it on. It's just like, it's so reliable
- 3:28:59too, man. Like, it's just that you you
- 3:29:02can't beat it anywhere. You drive, anywhere you go,
- 3:29:03anything you do, it's just like it's going to work every single
- 3:29:06time. So like now the only reason I I
- 3:29:08jump made that jump to to go further is just because I think
- 3:29:12I don't wanna say skill because I'm still not that good.
- 3:29:16I'm I'm enough for like I can kind of like not look like an
- 3:29:18idiot all the time but like there's there's still so much to
- 3:29:20learn. And I feel like the reason I
- 3:29:22made the switch is because I feel like now being turboed it's
- 3:29:24gonna allow me to get even better rather than using the
- 3:29:27turbo to and more power to like get me through shit that like
- 3:29:31skill's not there for. You know what I mean.
- 3:29:32Yeah. And also I feel like if you get
- 3:29:36good at like, so even like with angle, I didn't have angle for a
- 3:29:39long time too. And like if you get good at like
- 3:29:41having no angle and no power, it just teaches you the momentum
- 3:29:46part of it and the the basics. Yeah, just the actual like just
- 3:29:50being a good drive and being able to drive your car, you know
- 3:29:52what I mean? I always say it's like putting a
- 3:29:53Band-Aid on it if you. Yeah, exactly.
- 3:29:54Yeah. You fucking throw a huge angle
- 3:29:56onto it. You throw a bunch of power.
- 3:29:57It's like, all right, yeah, the. Turbo is the same thing I mean.
- 3:30:00I can't wait for that feeling one day.
- 3:30:02It's cool. It's a lot of same thing with
- 3:30:03you, I offered both of you. Yeah, anytime you guys want.
- 3:30:05To drive my car, Yeah, one of these I'm sure we'll do.
- 3:30:09I know Nico's doing a private day this Sunday.
- 3:30:10I'm probably not going to be able to drive it.
- 3:30:12But one of these days we'll do a private day will come out and
- 3:30:13we'll I also. Another thing that's huge is I
- 3:30:16want to have people drive my car that know what they're talking
- 3:30:19about and know what they're looking at, know what they feel.
- 3:30:21So I could actually get like legitimate feedback because this
- 3:30:23is my first drift car. I've never really.
- 3:30:25I've drifted. I like, I like everybody drive.
- 3:30:29Yeah, I've driven Seb's car before.
- 3:30:31It probably feels exactly the same.
- 3:30:32Yeah, I drove, I drove Niko's car.
- 3:30:35We had the 8/6 with the the beams in it and that was cool
- 3:30:37but like other than that like I've.
- 3:30:38Never could drive my truck. Appreciate it a bunch.
- 3:30:41Now I've I've, I've always wanted to get an ash chassis and
- 3:30:44like I'm even more inclined to do it now because I I want to be
- 3:30:48able to drive it just to be able to more emulate it better into
- 3:30:53like the newer chassis. You know what I mean?
- 3:30:54Like I said, everything I'm doing now with Dagoline is 100%
- 3:30:58looking future wise. Yeah, because I'm pretty sure we
- 3:31:00could all agree that that it's going to get to that point where
- 3:31:03like, things are already super expensive.
- 3:31:05It's only going to get worse. Parts are going to get more
- 3:31:06expensive. Only get me started bro.
- 3:31:08I went to McDonald's today. I couldn't buy a four piece
- 3:31:10Mcnugget and I've been Malcolm's.
- 3:31:13Heard the story 17 times today. So what was the question you
- 3:31:16wanted to end it on? This one, So we're going to end
- 3:31:19it on this one because I think that this is good cap on since
- 3:31:22you're discussing five years especially.
- 3:31:25What's coming in the future and or well we could you kind of
- 3:31:28answer that part but will futago ever be your main job slash
- 3:31:33pursuit. Awesome question.
- 3:31:37I don't think I I'm gonna put 100% to it but I don't think
- 3:31:42it'll I mean I'll see where it goes.
- 3:31:44I mean who knows if it fucking blows up It fucking blows up.
- 3:31:46Yeah. Sick.
- 3:31:47I think the what I what I did was I took something that I
- 3:31:50liked something that I enjoy. Something I enjoy doing and and
- 3:31:54made it to work in a way where it helps me out.
- 3:31:57Like for example like for now whenever I do events like I
- 3:32:01pretty much do it as like a business expense tires and stuff
- 3:32:04I try to do as a business expense too.
- 3:32:05Anytime I drive events I have doggle line on my car, I have
- 3:32:07the kit, I have whatever. Anything I do with the car is
- 3:32:11advertising for the business. So I put myself in a spot where
- 3:32:14I it allows me to do something I like a lot and not have to pay a
- 3:32:18lot out of pocket for it and just kind of make it more make
- 3:32:22it make more sense to future wise.
- 3:32:26Will be a full time thing I don't think so I I'm going to
- 3:32:29try to push it as much as I could.
- 3:32:30If it blows up and it and it becomes something that I have to
- 3:32:33put my full time to and something that could support me
- 3:32:35full time, then fuck yeah 100% but we'll see.
- 3:32:38I don't know. I'm also try to be very like
- 3:32:41business mindset. I'd love to own a couple
- 3:32:43different businesses. I want to get into real estate
- 3:32:45and stuff like that too. I didn't talk about job stuff at
- 3:32:47all, but I want to. There's a bunch of stuff I want
- 3:32:49to do, very kind of entrepreneurial, mindsetish.
- 3:32:52So there's a lot of stuff in that direction I want to go.
- 3:32:54And I think this is my first step into it.
- 3:32:57Something that thankfully has like a lot of open buffer where
- 3:33:01like I could make those mistakes.
- 3:33:05I could kind of have that where like a couple of months goes by
- 3:33:07where like nothing really happens.
- 3:33:08Like it doesn't end the business.
- 3:33:09You know what I mean? Like there's everything I do now
- 3:33:12goes towards something. It's not like if I don't make
- 3:33:14those moves now it doesn't work out so.
- 3:33:17Like a safe entryway into. Yeah, kind of.
- 3:33:19It's something that that allows me to stay afloat now, plus
- 3:33:22gives me a way to express like cool, creative stuff.
- 3:33:25Yeah, And then also bring cool stuff that's like not around,
- 3:33:28you know, so. I think you're doing great, man,
- 3:33:30and. You're killing it.
- 3:33:33And I think this goes to thank you for coming on the pod.
- 3:33:37No, this has been. Thank you A.
- 3:33:38Fun one, and it was. Asking you for a minute, right?
