  Like ramen, but like extra heart disease, you know?
• 1:48
  OK, Fact. That's a good way to put it.
• 1:50
  It's good way to put it. Everything's high on sodium.

  But yeah, tonight we're going to talk about a few things about
• 1:57
  for those of you who don't know, Justin has has been a part of
• 2:00
  the car community for quite some time.

• 2:09
  Instagram as well. Spell it FLIPZZZ Co fly in here
• 2:15
  already at flips go was that. We got a fly in here already, Do
• 2:18
  you? It's cuz you left that that that
• 2:20
  era bananas out last night. There's no bananas here.
• 2:23
  It was the egg roll that Ethan had, yeah.
• 2:25
  For real probably what it is you always Ethan's fault.
• 2:27
  But for those of you tell the people what flips go was Justin.
• 2:32
  So I had like another name and it was like a clothing brand
• 2:35
  that was like more like break dancing and.
• 2:38
  More like Hype B Style Wait. What?
• 2:40
  Yeah, well, I. Didn't we better go to the
• 2:43
  beginning? So note #1.
• 2:45
  Everyone seems to be shocked that I bring notes to this shit.
• 2:48
  Frankie is shocked by it. Doesn't ever believe I do it.
• 2:50
  You're so #1 origin of Flipsco. And then I have BMX question I.
• 2:56
  Think we need Justin's origin story?
• 2:59
  Yeah. Where?
• 2:59
  When were you? Where were you born?
• 3:01
  I was born in 1992, Brooklyn, NY.
• 3:03
  Dead ass. Yeah, I know.
• 3:05
  Dead Ass Beat didn't know that either.
• 3:08
  Damn, we're pretty close in age. BK stand up bro.
• 3:10
  Yeah. Hey yo.
• 3:13
  I was there for literally like 2 years and then my mom moved us
• 3:16
  to discover pretty much a gangster.
• 3:21
  Yeah, I'm taking a Miller Light. Colt 40, baby, no, but I didn't
• 3:26
  know that we were so close in age.
• 3:27
  But I mean OK. Wait, how old did you think I
• 3:29
  was? I thought you were, like 50.
• 3:31
  Jesus. No, I'm just kidding.
• 3:33
  I thought you were. I thought you were Frankie's
• 3:35
  age. Like me, me.
• 3:36
  Frankie's only two years younger than me, so yeah.
• 3:40
  Those two years, me, everything. Him.
• 3:42
  Us, me and. Us.
• 3:44
  And then? Malcolm's the oldest.
• 3:45
  Malcolm The Little No. Malcolm's a baby.
• 3:47
  And yo, baby. No, baby, wait.
• 3:50
  Is that really your bike outside?
• 3:51
  I thought you drove. That is his bike.
• 3:54
  He rides it to the Uhaul. If you guys haven't seen Malcolm
• 3:57
  on the Instagram writing this pink little bicycle, he rides it
• 3:59
  well, like he'll actually ride it so that he doesn't have to
• 4:02
  walk. Yeah, you'd rather ride that
• 4:04
  than walk. That's how he gets his check.
• 4:06
  Yeah. It's got like a little basket in
• 4:09
  the front. So he puts the parts in there
• 4:10
  too. Yeah, it's really convenient,
• 4:13
  absolutely. But he doesn't want to take it
• 4:15
  to 711 no. That's that's crossing the line,
• 4:18
  bro. Okay, that's dangerous.
• 4:20
  Pedal, but okay. So you're born in Brooklyn?
• 4:23
  Moved at the age of two. When did you learn to walk?
• 4:26
  Now I'm just kidding. But what?
• 4:30
  Made you What made you want to get into that clothing break
• 4:36
  dancing thing? Was that like a hobby of yours
• 4:38
  back then? I was confused in high school,
• 4:40
  bro, that yeah, I was like that Filipino kid that did like the
• 4:45
  outcasting that was cool, like break dancing or like I went to
• 4:50
  Nutley High School. So if you didn't play football,
• 4:51
  you kind of just sucked. Yeah, like every day was chess
• 4:54
  day and I just never worked out and never played football or
• 4:57
  nothing like that, so. It was either race dirt bikes
• 5:00
  and breakdance. That's right.
• 5:02
  You race dirt bikes too. Yeah.
• 5:04
  My roommate Pat. I don't know.
• 5:06
  Pat Lorenzo. Yeah, I know, Pat.
• 5:08
  Yeah, Yeah, that's. He always says that he's ridden
• 5:11
  dirt bikes with you and I always forget about.
• 5:13
  That he was the only other like him and his brother.
• 5:15
  The only other Filipinos over there.
• 5:17
  Cuz your dad is also he's always doing something with bikes.
• 5:21
  Yeah, I follow your dad on Instagram.
• 5:23
  We chat from time to time. My dad actually got his visa
• 5:25
  here. Race pro and then.
• 5:28
  Yeah, yeah, In he raced in California, knocked himself out
• 5:33
  and yeah, that was basically it. Then that was his pro career.
• 5:38
  Wait, so he came here to race? Yeah, like he came here to race
• 5:41
  dirt bikes and provide for the family in the Philippines.
• 5:44
  And that's that's a dream, right?
• 5:46
  Like that's always the goal that that if you're if you're not
• 5:49
  familiar with Asian culture you always like like supporting your
• 5:53
  elder like your family is #1. Yeah, so like that was probably
• 5:56
  hot shit. I'm not even gonna lie to you.
• 5:58
  That's awesome. I did not know that about.
• 6:01
  You I didn't. Know that either his career
• 6:02
  ended when I was like the oops, baby, you know Yeah that I wish
• 6:07
  I was kidding, but I'm. Not that's OK.
• 6:10
  So you were mistake. What's next?
• 6:12
  Yeah. Wow.
• 6:16
  Yeah, break dancing thing. I need more on that.
• 6:18
  No, wait, wait. We can't just glaze over this.
• 6:20
  So, like, we've got enough room here we could.
• 6:23
  Yeah, I wanted to be. No, I don't know.
• 6:24
  We're good, bro, cuz like, that's kind of wild.
• 6:27
  So your dad, like, recovered from that then?
• 6:29
  Then how did you get kind of what he just kind of, like
• 6:33
  raised you up around? Yeah, like I started riding when
• 6:36
  I was 4, racing when I was 5, and then we were five.
• 6:41
  Yeah, I was at English Town. Like it was.
• 6:43
  It's weird because like how like Chris, Knapp and everybody, like
• 6:46
  all came together. Like, it's so weird how like my
• 6:49
  life kind of. Was at English Town like every
• 6:52
  single weekend. Like we rode Wednesdays, we
• 6:54
  practice Wednesdays, then we would camp Friday, Saturday,
• 6:57
  Sunday and then Sunday would be like race day.
• 6:59
  Saturday would be qualifying. You're doing this at age 5.
• 7:02
  I was doing, yeah, I started, I did 50s at 5:00 and then swapped
• 7:07
  out to like 60 like we did 65 heavy like 50s was just like.
• 7:12
  That's like my dream. You know what?
• 7:13
  When I was younger, I wanted to do motor.
• 7:15
  I know like I I lived in Jersey City.
• 7:17
  My dad said that that is not attainable.
• 7:21
  He's like, where are you going to ride it?
• 7:23
  We ended up getting quads. I mean, whack.
• 7:29
  Well, that's why you're so good at drifting, dude.
• 7:31
  I mean that definitely started that started the whole like
• 7:34
  learning how to control a vehicle and whatnot.
• 7:36
  Yeah. I mean, is that true like you
• 7:38
  get, is that, well, I was like do you translate those two
• 7:41
  together? I look at them as completely
• 7:43
  separate. I mean dude, I'm the worst when
• 7:45
  it comes to teaching drifting, cuz it's just like.
• 7:48
  Yeah, right. Yeah.
• 7:49
  Yeah. Like, I like the first, like,
• 7:51
  somebody asked me the first time.
• 7:53
  They're like, how do you know, like you're in drift.
• 7:55
  I'd be like, well, you got to feel it in your butt.
• 7:57
  And they're like, what? Like it's such a weird concept.
• 8:00
  But like, if you feel like I don't drift with seat padding
• 8:04
  because, like, I need to feel like we're damn you.
• 8:08
  Stay. Yeah, yeah bro, that's in break
• 8:12
  dancing booty. Bro B Boy booty.
• 8:14
  But like I like, I know exactly what the car is doing wrong.
• 8:18
  If would my butt if that makes. No, I know.
• 8:20
  I totally get. That the G forces that, yeah.
• 8:24
  You used to being on a bike too. So yeah, where your butt is
• 8:28
  like. Well, that's quads is all.
• 8:30
  Like everybody swears. It's like hand controlled.
• 8:34
  That's the one thing I hated in high school is like everybody's
• 8:36
  like, oh, you're at dirt bikes like that doesn't do anything
• 8:38
  for you. Meanwhile, you bring them to go
• 8:40
  go karting. And then the adrenaline kicks in
• 8:42
  and they're sweating like after like 2 laps.
• 8:45
  My hands be sliding all over the wheel.
• 8:48
  They're so sweaty. The leather turns into suede,
• 8:51
  just from shiny. But OK, so so you rode dirt
• 8:55
  bikes and you're talking like you're you rode them, rode them
• 8:57
  like you compete, you've raced them for a while and and you're
• 9:01
  hitting what is that called a table top?
• 9:03
  Yeah, like the biggest, like the biggest.
• 9:06
  Like like the jump that's shaped like that.
• 9:08
  They had a big jump over there. I always see it from tree turn.
• 9:12
  You can like see it in the background.
• 9:13
  It's just as. There's another the track on the
• 9:15
  right side when you come in. Yeah, so the.
• 9:18
  Track used to be there. Yeah, the track on the right
• 9:20
  side was insane. Like that was like the full
• 9:22
  blown like racetrack before the whole entire like demolition
• 9:26
  construction thing happened. But like it.
• 9:29
  That used to always scare the crap out of me to race there,
• 9:31
  because anywhere you go. And it's the same thing with
• 9:33
  drifting though, like if you can drift that English sound, you
• 9:35
  can drift anywhere. Well, so that track was like,
• 9:38
  really, it pushed you to the limit.
• 9:40
  Yeah, like so they had like a national now, which is Damn,
• 9:45
  bro. I'm going to kill this fly and
• 9:48
  I'm going to do it within the first 30 minutes of this
• 9:50
  podcast, so I'm sorry for the clapping you.
• 9:52
  Guys, where's Where's the Mr. Miyagi Chopsticks?
• 9:56
  No, he's at work. Probably.
• 9:57
  But. This thing is, I'm gonna get the
• 9:59
  beer burps. Now, anyway, yeah, that track
• 10:02
  was. I mean, I used to go down there
• 10:03
  to watch. Did you?
• 10:05
  Yeah, literally. I probably I.
• 10:06
  Didn't even know that you liked racing.
• 10:09
  I used to get the magazines in the mail.
• 10:11
  Those are cool. Dude, like I have a stack of
• 10:13
  magazines like this high I. Just I just stir.
• 10:15
  Flex, there's a fly. Which is funny because you
• 10:18
  definitely did like skater BMX or something.
• 10:20
  Yeah, I was a. Skateboarder kid, I guess.
• 10:21
  But I wasn't good at all, so I'm sorry.
• 10:26
  Can't even do a kick flip. I'm picturing Frankie on a
• 10:28
  skateboard and I don't know why, but like.
• 10:31
  OK, let's get the boards out then.
• 10:33
  Just stiff let us know. I'll bang a kick flip out right
• 10:36
  now. Let us know somewhere if you
• 10:37
  want to see a video Frankie skateboarding where we just go
• 10:40
  to the skate park and fuck around.
• 10:41
  Someone's gonna say yes. I'm down totally.
• 10:44
  I would love to see it, but I don't want to get hurt.
• 10:46
  So have like a field trip. Like a field trip.
• 10:48
  A field trip. Fuck it right now.
• 10:49
  I'll do a scooter. Oh God.
• 10:52
  Oh, you and Dave would. Go you just got way less.
• 10:54
  No, no, no. I'm just kidding.
• 10:56
  Like nothing against Scooter kids like they're.
• 10:59
  Oh, it was like everything against Scooter Kids.
• 11:00
  It does take some sort of athleticism at the end of the
• 11:03
  day, but. I rode bicycles, cuz it was
• 11:05
  easy. Yeah.
• 11:06
  OK, yeah. So we're gonna loop this in.
• 11:08
  So you now I'm gonna Fast forward your hidden puberty and
• 11:11
  stuff. Post puberty.
• 11:12
  Hey, yo. And now you're you're are you?
• 11:16
  When did you think of starting flips?
• 11:19
  Go oh. Yeah, how did you get into cars
• 11:20
  in the first? Place There we go.
• 11:21
  Well, no cuz isn't that later on cuz you flips go happened and
• 11:25
  then ooh. Did Flipsco?
• 11:26
  Happen so. Flipsco happened which was weird
• 11:29
  cuz it was like I had. It was called Logic and Reason
• 11:32
  that was like the clothing brand.
• 11:33
  That's a good name. Sounds like a rap group, it
• 11:35
  sounds. Kind of, yeah.
• 11:36
  It sounds like a DC type brand. Yeah, it was like, it was like
• 11:40
  kind of like inspired by like the Far Side or like like it was
• 11:44
  old school hip hop. Style because like, great beats
• 11:48
  and stuff like that. OK, so I was going to be like,
• 11:50
  all right, let's make a hype beast brand, which was kind of
• 11:52
  cool in the beginning. But then like at the time, I've
• 11:57
  like talked to Mark from like Fat Lace and he was like a big
• 12:02
  inspiration growing up and I always liked what he was into.
• 12:05
  This is before, like, the Porsches and all the stuff that
• 12:08
  he's into now, But he was like the only dude with like an S14
• 12:11
  Zenke that was like rocking it hard.
• 12:14
  And I was like, oh, damn, like I was probably a sophomore in high
• 12:17
  school when he had that car out. And I was like, that's so sick.
• 12:20
  But that wasn't your introduction to cars, right?
• 12:23
  No. Like, that was like my first,
• 12:25
  like O2 forties. Like, that's sick.
• 12:27
  And I was like a sophomore. I like, you know, like when
• 12:30
  you're about to branch into like getting your license.
• 12:32
  Yeah. So it's just like there's you
• 12:34
  don't really know what's going on.
• 12:36
  Yeah. Yeah, that feeling was yeah, I
• 12:37
  can, Yes, yes, I'm with you. I know.
• 12:40
  What you're talking about, So it was like.
• 12:42
  Everybody was just like kind of branching to that and I love the
• 12:44
  Cali scene heavy from like break dancing and stuff.
• 12:47
  And Mark was actually in the break dancing community.
• 12:50
  Is that how you knew him? No, I didn't really meet him to
• 12:54
  like down the line until like, Flipsco became like more, I
• 12:57
  guess, in depth with like, the car scene.
• 13:00
  OK, but like, it was like a very quick, nonchalant thing.
• 13:03
  It wasn't like a he knows, I'm sure he knows of.
• 13:07
  Blipsco. But I'm sure, like, if we
• 13:08
  brought up that conversation, you'd probably be like, Nah, I
• 13:10
  don't remember. I remember there his brand was a
• 13:14
  big inspiration for me to really like just in general.
• 13:17
  They were more of, I thought, a Stancy.
• 13:20
  It was. Yeah, so I remember I had an
• 13:25
  Audi. Yeah, that's right.
• 13:28
  You've had every car. I had an Audi.
• 13:30
  It was my very first car. Biggest hunk of shit ever. 2000
• 13:35
  bucks though. Did you have a quatre sticker on
• 13:36
  it? And then?
• 13:40
  Don't look at me. I don't know.
• 13:43
  I just looked at Chris because I actually met Chris with that
• 13:45
  car. But no, I remember fat lace.
• 13:48
  I offered for him to drive my car and he refused cuz it wasn't
• 13:51
  his. What a respectful guy.
• 13:53
  Yeah. He didn't even take advantage of
• 13:55
  me, so no. But I remember fat Lace being.
• 14:00
  I remember Fat Lace being like always on a fucking license
• 14:02
  plate. I had a fat lace sticker.
• 14:04
  I had a tattoo. There were.
• 14:05
  The sticker was always on on a fucking Volkswagen.
• 14:09
  But I feel like fat lays change. Like they change like the
• 14:12
  concept of like a brand because there was like, you know, you he
• 14:16
  was like kind of like the introduction of making cars onto
• 14:20
  a whole nother level. Yeah, like not just a car thing.
• 14:22
  Yeah, because there's other people, like, all right, Like,
• 14:25
  and I hate to bring this up, but like Fox Racing.
• 14:28
  Like another another fan favorite of mine.
• 14:30
  Oh really? I like Fox Racing, OK?
• 14:32
  So Fox. Anybody could be wearing it.
• 14:35
  Like, I remember I used to go to like, high school and I'd be
• 14:36
  like, yo, you ride dirt bikes and you they'll be like, no.
• 14:40
  I. Felt like such a poser when I
• 14:42
  had a Fox Fox Racing shirt on, but I was like, it's alright
• 14:44
  man, I clawed. I got all my clothes and.
• 14:46
  I got goggles like. Yeah.
• 14:49
  But I need pads. It just brings like the it's so
• 14:51
  many other different communities.
• 14:52
  Like, that's what Fat Lace did. Like it opened up and then I
• 14:55
  guess that's what you could call like a real lifestyle brand
• 14:58
  because it was different where car heads would be mixing with
• 15:02
  dudes that were. You know at the time rocking
• 15:04
  like Drunken Monkey and all the hype beast brands that were out
• 15:08
  at the time. Bathe in eight.
• 15:10
  Yeah, I mean, Bape was like, I couldn't afford Bape.
• 15:13
  I couldn't afford that. Shit I can't afford.
• 15:15
  It, man, I just saw the people wearing the fake stuff, so.
• 15:18
  Yeah, I know. A place in Chinatown.
• 15:20
  Yeah, No. But that's so funny that you
• 15:24
  said that that Fat Lace did that, because I feel like
• 15:27
  Flipsco did that as well with when.
• 15:31
  I in our scene, like our scene. Are you talking about like the
• 15:34
  Drifting community? The car community over here, but
• 15:37
  was it always drifting or were you into car a different kind of
• 15:40
  cars before? That dude.
• 15:41
  I meant, So what? What?
• 15:42
  Give what? What was your very first car?
• 15:44
  That was one of my questions. My Toyota Sienna.
• 15:48
  Ooh. Yeah, and it was champagne.
• 15:51
  So I called it like champagne Poppy like.
• 15:53
  I should trademark it. Bro like at the time, like
• 15:56
  Toyota Sienna, would literally demolish the IS300 from a dig.
• 16:00
  OK, I shit you not. They drift pretty good though.
• 16:05
  Like. They have the kick E.
• 16:06
  Break I don't even know that it's a minivan.
• 16:08
  Minivan. Like my mom was just telling me,
• 16:10
  like, she's like, I don't care. Like you're going to school with
• 16:12
  that. That's like, if you want to
• 16:14
  drive, if you want to drive, that's the car.
• 16:17
  I said OK, bro, I kicked that thing like so hard, like ripping
• 16:22
  through Franklin I have in Nutley.
• 16:23
  Like, I was just like, yo, drifting sick dude.
• 16:25
  So like they had the kick E break thing said, like.
• 16:29
  Yeah, yeah. I've done that.
• 16:31
  Yeah. So, like, dude, I was ripping.
• 16:33
  I remember, like, the first time, like, I like, I can't even
• 16:37
  make this up. It was like at the Nutley Diner
• 16:39
  and it was like this big intersection.
• 16:40
  And like, I don't know, you're not supposed to be driving at
• 16:43
  one or two in the morning at 17 years old.
• 16:45
  Yeah, but somehow happened to be there with like, a girl that
• 16:48
  wasn't even dating at the time. So I was like, yo, check this
• 16:51
  out in a minivan, bro. I slammed it.
• 16:54
  And then all I felt a back end kick out and I didn't realize
• 16:57
  that you have to kick off the E brake.
• 17:00
  So I just kicked the E brake and the thing locked up and we spun
• 17:03
  in the rain in the middle of the intersection and like, you have
• 17:06
  to act cool like you can't, you know?
• 17:08
  Yeah, I meant to do that. Oh yeah, that.
• 17:10
  Was but but like I was so like she was like freaking out.
• 17:13
  I was just. Yeah, I did.
• 17:17
  Yeah, I do this all the time. And then bro drove home with the
• 17:21
  E rake like lock the whole time because I didn't know how to
• 17:23
  take it off, like I was looking for a button and everything.
• 17:26
  Yeah, I do remember that. When they started putting those
• 17:28
  in the cars, I drove a Honda Odyssey for a little bit.
• 17:31
  I jumped that shit, though. I didn't drink.
• 17:32
  It I feel like everybody starts with a minivan like or has
• 17:36
  driven A minivan and just like fucking amazing vehicles and
• 17:39
  here's why you want to be entertained in there, right?
• 17:41
  Bumping sounds. Power doors, power doors.
• 17:44
  Cuz you're lazy. Yeah, and power, because you get
• 17:47
  bored and you just want to drop the kids off and go home.
• 17:50
  Yeah, and the best radio reception like I've never had,
• 17:53
  I've never heard static in a minivan before and.
• 17:55
  I didn't start with a minivan. You started with a.
• 17:57
  Million Koya had a Toyota Sequoia.
• 17:59
  He had a Koya. Dude, listen bro.
• 18:01
  Overland King over here, but best car.
• 18:05
  Those are the best minivan. You just take the rear seats
• 18:07
  out. You got a van?
• 18:09
  Tell me you jumped it. No, but I did drift in the snow.
• 18:12
  They drifted. Your awesome in the snow
• 18:14
  actually. The one thing that I used to do
• 18:16
  in the Shannon like cuz racing dirt bikes was like a thing I
• 18:19
  would come up to a speed bump going like 50 and then I would
• 18:23
  scrub. Like I would just freaking hit
• 18:25
  the speed bump and then jolt the steering.
• 18:27
  What are you trying to barrel? I thought it was dude.
• 18:29
  I thought it was sick dude. And then honestly, like when all
• 18:31
  the, like, the joints and everything were probably
• 18:33
  destroyed on the. I mean it made it like 180 K,
• 18:36
  but it had like, whoa. Yeah, that's Ethan Whiz Wheeling
• 18:41
  something in the back. Yeah, in case you hear what
• 18:43
  sounds like a cavity filling. I felt like it was NASCAR for a
• 18:47
  second. Shout out Ethan for working
• 18:50
  after. I'm gonna apologize, like, right
• 18:53
  off the rip, because you're gonna ask me questions and we're
• 18:55
  gonna go like that. Way.
• 18:57
  We're already all over the place and it's not your fault, it's
• 19:00
  Carl's fault. We haven't done anywhere.
• 19:02
  You're like, on note one, yeah, we haven't, we haven't done any
• 19:05
  of this. This is all bullshit.
• 19:06
  I'm telling you bro, you could Chuck that out the window.
• 19:08
  You just have like a I don't want to cuz I worked so hard on
• 19:11
  drawing. This, well, what we're trying to
• 19:13
  do is the first time we have someone on the podcast that's
• 19:17
  local, kind of like a little origin story.
• 19:20
  Oh, and yeah, following up that's that's whatever, That's
• 19:23
  note #1 of Frankie. So so we can do that like.
• 19:25
  Yeah, so. Well, we're already are.
• 19:26
  We're pretty, pretty far in. There's no need to stop the the
• 19:29
  motion. Yeah, let's keep going.
• 19:31
  Yeah, just me talking about how I literally destroyed my mom's
• 19:34
  minivan. Yeah, but I mean, we we, we
• 19:36
  could all relate. Well, we could bring it back to.
• 19:38
  So you started that brand. What was the name?
• 19:41
  So logic and reason I started that never lasted like it didn't
• 19:45
  last. Like cuz I was still in high
• 19:47
  school at the time so I was like selling.
• 19:49
  Trying. I wouldn't even say selling.
• 19:51
  I was trying to like I brought like 5 hoodies to my locker to
• 19:56
  try and sell out. Just cuz like there was no
• 20:00
  hustle at the time. Like there was just no like gas
• 20:04
  money or anything like that. It was just like let's start
• 20:07
  something and then and I guess that's the whole reason why we
• 20:10
  never like made like millions of dollars selling cuz it's more
• 20:13
  about like branding was more I guess fun.
• 20:18
  Than the money aspect of it as a business?
• 20:20
  Yeah, in a way. So like I have more.
• 20:23
  Like I'm rich in memories compared to actual money.
• 20:26
  Yeah. Insane cuz like the people I've
• 20:28
  met, yeah. So pretty much So it's just it's
• 20:33
  just one of those things where like I feel like I don't know
• 20:37
  60-70 years old of the things that I know now compared to I
• 20:41
  knowing back in the day, which is kind of wild, but again maybe
• 20:45
  if I treated it more like a you know.
• 20:48
  A hustle? It would be different, yeah, cuz
• 20:50
  there was number, there was number Shopify back in the day
• 20:52
  there was number Tik toks or like hustling.
• 20:56
  Like the channels that we have today.
• 20:58
  Yeah, there was number. Like, nobody taught you this
• 21:00
  stuff, dude. Yeah.
• 21:01
  And even in Business School, the first thing, like, I remember
• 21:04
  going to Business School and then having like maybe had like
• 21:07
  10,000 followers on Instagram. My literally, like my business
• 21:11
  teacher told me straight up he was just like quit and I'm like
• 21:15
  he's like quit college right now and just keep doing what you're
• 21:18
  doing because anything. And I hate to say it like you
• 21:21
  know, sorry Mr. Andrews, but like, but like he legit told me
• 21:26
  he's like quit college right now and pursue your goals and and
• 21:29
  you're wasting time doing the college route because you
• 21:33
  already established something in high school leading up to this.
• 21:36
  And the one thing that I'm going to tell you right now is you're
• 21:39
  never going to pursue your goals of what you want for your brand.
• 21:42
  If you're wasting your time learning about things that
• 21:45
  aren't attainable, like you're you're learning history of
• 21:48
  business, not business. Yeah.
• 21:49
  So they were telling me straight up like, go quit and go and do
• 21:53
  this. And then I I went for like
• 21:55
  nursing. Sounds like that guy probably
• 21:56
  didn't like his life that much either.
• 21:58
  No. He just like, I guess.
• 22:00
  Dude, he literally told me. Like the four P's of.
• 22:03
  He's probably like that was it. Probably looks at you like, wow,
• 22:05
  I wish I could have I I don't. I don't know.
• 22:08
  I mean, like, it was weird because like, the first class,
• 22:11
  he was asking questions and stuff.
• 22:13
  I didn't answer a damn thing. Like, he kind of like, was just,
• 22:16
  I mean, I was decked out in Flipsco stuff.
• 22:18
  Like, maybe that's what it was like.
• 22:19
  I had the sweatpants, the tshirt and the hat.
• 22:22
  So he was like, what the hell is that?
• 22:23
  Yeah. And then I kind of brought it
• 22:25
  up. And then he was like, oh, what?
• 22:26
  He saw 10,000 followers on Instagram Like, whoa, that was a
• 22:29
  good thing. He saw it as an opportunity.
• 22:31
  That's the thing. I mean this.
• 22:33
  Is all about opportunity, right? So, like, he saw those 10,000
• 22:36
  followers probably and was like. Look at the channel that this
• 22:39
  kids got right now. Like, look at the opportunity
• 22:43
  that this kid has to to influence 10,000 people.
• 22:48
  I mean, so on the Internet you knew this too.
• 22:50
  Like cuz when you started faction, like 10,000 followers
• 22:53
  back in the day. I wasn't 10,000 followers now.
• 22:56
  Like 10,000 followers actually knew that Nikki posted stuff and
• 22:59
  like they actually like it was like a core, like not a cult,
• 23:02
  but like people knew of you all the time.
• 23:05
  Well, the thing about your followers, your followers were
• 23:07
  probably local too. Yeah, and which?
• 23:10
  Is really important. You know what's scary?
• 23:12
  So, like, I'm sure you're the same thing too, is I just found
• 23:15
  out like through analytics and whatnot.
• 23:18
  My like audience is like 28 to like 37 and I didn't know that.
• 23:25
  Yeah, yeah. Ours is, I think, somewhere.
• 23:31
  Somewhere in that 25 to 35 range.
• 23:33
  I'm just going to quit looking at the analytics cuz I really
• 23:35
  don't know what I'm. Looking at I don't really look
• 23:37
  at them often, but they swear like if you need to look at it.
• 23:41
  Well, if you really want to, like, ruin your life and yeah.
• 23:45
  I mean, it's cool you could do that, but you're like like, how
• 23:48
  many horsepower is your car gonna have?
• 23:50
  You're just gonna stress out? So much like and I stress out
• 23:53
  all the time. Trying to figure that out like,
• 23:55
  oh, so the age range is this. So now I have to start targeting
• 23:58
  ads towards these people. That's good.
• 24:00
  I mean, that's the only good part.
• 24:01
  At least you know how to target ads.
• 24:02
  We don't do any of it really, No.
• 24:04
  I know the idea, but I don't really do it.
• 24:08
  I feel like you're unintentionally marked and like,
• 24:10
  already just talking to that audience because that's who you
• 24:14
  are. Yeah, I'm waiting.
• 24:16
  I'm waiting for my age to surpass the that age and then
• 24:20
  I'm gonna be like, fuck. Now I need to hire younger
• 24:22
  people, but yeah, so we're good. I need to market but I Agra I
• 24:26
  feel like. I feel like that though, like
• 24:28
  that's like the best age group though.
• 24:30
  Straight up, yeah, I feel like cuz.
• 24:32
  There's people just getting into it, People with jobs, yeah.
• 24:35
  And I honestly think it like there's two levels of drifting
• 24:39
  now. And I don't know, it's kind of
• 24:41
  weird because like Takeover is kind of like don't fit.
• 24:44
  In Yeah, we don't even you don't even give that private.
• 24:47
  Yeah, really. But like the dudes that I've
• 24:49
  seen like on a Seto like that's been drifting since 1415 years
• 24:53
  old, they like kill it. So like they can be like, I've.
• 24:58
  It's weird to me because if you played like, I had friends that
• 25:02
  couldn't drift on, like Need for Speed or like, yeah, or like,
• 25:06
  what the hell is that game with the?
• 25:08
  Damn, Forza. Yeah, Well, Horizon.
• 25:10
  What? Is the drifting.
• 25:11
  I love Forza drifting because there was a clutch in that but.
• 25:13
  Bro, I used. I used Forza.
• 25:16
  So here's the thing. If you drifted in Forza the way
• 25:18
  you drift now, you think you'd be good.
• 25:20
  Like if I didn't have, like if you didn't have a drift car and
• 25:22
  you, like, went from Forza to a drift car.
• 25:24
  Well, Forza doesn't do as much as that other game does.
• 25:28
  A set of course I can't drift in.
• 25:29
  A set off for. Sure, I never tried, but.
• 25:31
  I think that that would be a really cool sight to see is like
• 25:34
  for me to put Frankie down in front of my TV with a set of
• 25:37
  course on and then fucking hates it.
• 25:39
  Yeah, you should do that. You would.
• 25:40
  Hate it? Malcolm saw it the other day.
• 25:42
  And what was that? That's oh America Center.
• 25:46
  Micro center had it Simulator simulator set.
• 25:49
  Up. Yeah, But they had like a triple
• 25:51
  screen set up. Like it in a way.
• 25:53
  In theory, like, I'd rather how much is it?
• 25:55
  Like 2-3 grand just sitting there.
• 25:57
  All right, so put it this way, two or three grand.
• 26:00
  Or. Like 13 grand for a 240 stock.
• 26:03
  Yeah, but you're getting the same memories drifting, drifting
• 26:06
  in your room. I've seen kids like, I don't
• 26:09
  know. I mean, you definitely won't get
• 26:10
  the same feeling, but you'll definitely have a bank account.
• 26:12
  Yeah, but is it worth it? I think so.
• 26:15
  OK, the thing for me is is. When kids get into drifting now,
• 26:20
  like there's actually a video online, right?
• 26:22
  This kid won some sort of drifting championship, and the
• 26:25
  prize was that they could go drift with James Dean.
• 26:27
  Oh, and he killed it. And he.
• 26:28
  Murdered it. Yeah, too.
• 26:30
  But. But then again, like, like the
• 26:34
  like the resource that was provided to him, like the car he
• 26:37
  was drifting. I think it was James Dean's car.
• 26:40
  Yeah, but think about the fear though.
• 26:41
  Like think about the first time you guys got on track and then
• 26:44
  you were sitting on grid. And you shit myself, cuz my car
• 26:47
  was about to overheat, bro. I had so many dudes that were
• 26:50
  like Street Drift. I have to get home and then they
• 26:52
  get on the grid and they're like, bro, it's so narrow and
• 26:54
  you're like, what? This is the widest track I've
• 26:57
  ever You could fit five cars sideways in one corner and no
• 27:01
  problem. Yeah, there's a lot of like
• 27:03
  people that do a set of Corsa and then they.
• 27:05
  I mean, one of them was here, remember, we worked on his car
• 27:07
  and then. He did make a video.
• 27:09
  I didn't watch it. That's me what came out.
• 27:11
  Yet, I don't know. It's literally not you.
• 27:12
  No, these are people. That don't drift and they play a
• 27:15
  set of Corsa and then they're like, I'm gonna go try to drift.
• 27:18
  And then, yeah, this guy was strictly playing a set of Corsa
• 27:21
  and then came here to help him build his drift car and then he
• 27:26
  was gonna apply that. To his private day.
• 27:29
  And he linked the course like the first time.
• 27:30
  Yeah. So what I would do is I would
• 27:32
  play a set of Corsa in my college apartment and then once,
• 27:36
  every time it rained, I would literally go outside.
• 27:39
  Like I had to play it for like 10 minutes and then I would go
• 27:42
  into my. You had to play it.
• 27:44
  Cuz this is the point that I It was college credit.
• 27:47
  I didn't. Realize you were like a TikTok
• 27:49
  generation well. Because that shit didn't exist
• 27:52
  unfortunately when I was in college, no, But it honestly
• 27:56
  helped with. Like the muscle memory.
• 27:59
  Bro, yeah. It does.
• 28:01
  It doesn't translate fully and and if you heard, if you listen
• 28:05
  to our prior podcast with Josh he said the same thing.
• 28:08
  If you have bad habits when you're playing a Settle, like
• 28:13
  like going like, I don't, I don't know, like using one hand
• 28:16
  or or like or I don't fucking know, like holding the wheel
• 28:20
  like this, I don't fucking know. If you have a bad habit in
• 28:23
  there, then it translates right over when you're actually
• 28:26
  drifting. And then when you're actually
• 28:29
  drifting, that motion can cause you, I don't know, like an
• 28:34
  error. And then you can crash, bro.
• 28:37
  Kids have a good these days, Frankie.
• 28:39
  I don't know, man. I'm not.
• 28:40
  I don't get that whole set of thing.
• 28:42
  It's it's it is a tool and it's only gonna get better and I
• 28:46
  think with time it will obviously get better.
• 28:48
  I'm just a hater. What's the first car you
• 28:50
  drifted? Anybody like?
• 28:52
  We'll start here. Like actually drifted?
• 28:54
  Yeah, like active drifting. Yeah, 350Z.
• 28:58
  Get that thing, Get that 350Z and what'd you think?
• 29:03
  Well, I had stock suspension. All right.
• 29:06
  I totally remember drifting with Chris in that car.
• 29:08
  There wasn't. Well, The thing is, I didn't
• 29:10
  have that much drifting knowledge at the time.
• 29:11
  So, like, I didn't know that, like, were you surrounded by the
• 29:14
  people that you? Are I was but OK because it's my
• 29:16
  first time it was. I was like I'm not gonna ask
• 29:19
  anybody for help. Like it was kind of, I felt like
• 29:21
  embarrassed to ask for help. Yeah, that's.
• 29:23
  Whatever. That's what everyone feels,
• 29:24
  yeah, but trying to break your? Habit.
• 29:26
  Do you know Danny Hong? Yeah, I do.
• 29:29
  He was there for my first drift event and he helped me gotcha
• 29:32
  and and that's the thing like I think like a Seto can't bring
• 29:36
  like they can't bring you the community that will teach you
• 29:38
  exactly you know and then. But this generation doesn't need
• 29:41
  that, because they don't want to talk to anyone anyway.
• 29:44
  Holy. That's true, though.
• 29:46
  They hurt you, bro. These people with a settle hurt
• 29:49
  me, man. That that is, that is.
• 29:51
  True, though the IT took me a long What was your first car?
• 29:55
  That I drifted. That drifted.
• 29:57
  Yeah, it was a S13 S 13. Cool.
• 30:01
  No vert. I had a vert as my first.
• 30:03
  Jesus Christ. Well, first.
• 30:06
  You must not like your head. OK, that.
• 30:08
  With a roll bar or. No.
• 30:09
  No, that car was so clean. But let me tell you, if you have
• 30:15
  a vert, you need a cage. And here's why.
• 30:17
  That shit, that chassis is literally a wet noodle.
• 30:22
  Like you would Jack it up and you would see the whole car.
• 30:25
  Yeah, literally. Well, that's any.
• 30:26
  Yes. Yes, straight boner kill.
• 30:28
  No, but it was like to to an extreme.
• 30:30
  It was really nice though. It had stance coils.
• 30:33
  Damn you and like stands and like a manual swap.
• 30:36
  So as manual had a welded diff, did I have a radio?
• 30:39
  And then bucket seats. 6 by 9 speakers cuz they were on sale.
• 30:40
  Yeah, I put a radio in it with Bluetooth, man.
• 30:43
  And. Where did you have your just
• 30:47
  your 240 Ford Explorer shut? Up my mom's.
• 30:50
  You're bugging I probably. I believe it.
• 30:52
  Too, but not like seriously. But no.
• 30:54
  Like your mini stands score, right?
• 30:56
  No, I had a S14. Oh, OK, Kooky.
• 30:59
  No, thank you. Yeah.
• 31:01
  Sick, yeah. Welded.
• 31:03
  Yep, that one's still welded, too.
• 31:06
  So what? Did you drift first then?
• 31:08
  So cuz I remember you had another car bro.
• 31:10
  I had. So what was your?
• 31:12
  First drift car. So I it was weird cuz I got in
• 31:15
  Somehow, someway I got into the RC drift cars thing.
• 31:18
  Really. And yeah.
• 31:19
  And then I met Chris Allen. But that was like, back when
• 31:22
  they probably sucked, right? What the RC drift cars, dude,
• 31:25
  They were like, yeah. Yeah, right.
• 31:28
  Yeah, they that was like one. They.
• 31:29
  Don't have, like, the gyros. They were.
• 31:30
  No, no, they were. So, yeah, but it was sick
• 31:33
  because it was like all-wheel drive.
• 31:34
  So it's just like, yeah, that's that's right.
• 31:36
  Yeah. And then you literally just lock
• 31:38
  out, park it. And like, that's how I kind of
• 31:40
  was like, oh, dude, I could definitely.
• 31:42
  That was my house. Like a Seto.
• 31:43
  Oh. OK.
• 31:44
  Yeah. OK.
• 31:45
  So I met Chris Allen from it. And then Chris Allen was like,
• 31:48
  he was in C Group at the time with a S13 coupe.
• 31:52
  Somehow, someway I was just like, dude, I need to buy 240.
• 31:55
  So I went out to like Craigslist.
• 31:58
  Somehow, someway found out. So being like Alabama of this
• 32:02
  dude building a car, he's building a shell in Alabama for
• 32:07
  an FD driver who was my height, like you've seen the car.
• 32:11
  So like that S13 that I had was for Formula Drift that never
• 32:15
  passed like tech. That's, I mean, we skipped a
• 32:20
  couple notes here. Whips out the notepad.
• 32:22
  But I have God's Engine 1 JZS 13 point five.
• 32:26
  Dude, I don't even want to talk about that.
• 32:29
  Right. I know that that definitely bro,
• 32:31
  that big. Sad that irked me because one JS
• 32:35
  weren't a thing like if it was SR20.
• 32:38
  I mean, that's still like Frankie's motto is like SR20.
• 32:40
  Or LS right that was that was I. Mean at that time?
• 32:45
  At that time, yeah, definitely. Those were the two options.
• 32:47
  You had a KA, Sr. Or A Nobody put Jz's in and they
• 32:51
  never believed it like they never thought.
• 32:53
  It was ever done. So, so you were.
• 32:54
  Why? They existed.
• 32:56
  Yeah, they existed. But it wasn't like, it was like
• 32:57
  kind of like an art. Like, again, not talking stuff,
• 33:01
  not talking shit. But like, you could talk shit.
• 33:03
  It wasn't common, no. But, like, so yeah, like, all
• 33:05
  right, how many people didn't you know are on grid?
• 33:07
  That's just like, dude, it got the sickest RB 26 on here.
• 33:11
  Yeah, that's true. All right.
• 33:12
  So that's how. It was like an yeah, it was like
• 33:14
  an RB 26, Yeah, Where where people didn't hate on it.
• 33:17
  They just it was so unknown and it was stupid hard to get parts.
• 33:21
  Like dumb hard to get parts on those things.
• 33:24
  And I didn't even know what a Jayzx 100 was, but.
• 33:28
  I still don't. So you're you're good.
• 33:30
  Like 9 of them. Ten of them, dude.
• 33:32
  So like when like when that Jayz came in, I listened to JDS
• 33:37
  motoring because they were talking about there's one kid,
• 33:40
  Sal, that I was first time ever riding in the passenger seat.
• 33:43
  He had a Jayz. I didn't know what the hell they
• 33:45
  were talking about about sound or oh, he's drifted in 3rd like
• 33:49
  I didn't know any of that shit. Yeah, so I was just like that
• 33:52
  project was there and then in my head I'm like, this is gonna
• 33:56
  suck because I got this FD like out of date car.
• 34:00
  But did it have an engine? It hadn't?
• 34:02
  No, dude. So it's a failed FD shell bro.
• 34:05
  I was like catfished. Like when I got the shell, I was
• 34:08
  like, holy shit. So you picked it up, you went
• 34:11
  down, bro. It didn't even have brake lines
• 34:13
  like it was sick, like it was the show.
• 34:15
  Was all the way to. I mean, I didn't go anywhere,
• 34:18
  bro. Oh, you got it brought.
• 34:19
  The dude was like, yo, I got a trailer that I could send it to
• 34:23
  New Jersey. The dude dropped this shell off
• 34:26
  at a Luke oil well, and it wasn't Luke oil at a time.
• 34:29
  It's like a Shell gas station. And he was just kind of like,
• 34:32
  dude, you're beat. Like, I don't know what to
• 34:33
  fucking tell you. Like this is a shell doesn't
• 34:35
  have a motor because you couldn't pull the truck into my
• 34:38
  my street at the time. And you had no brakes.
• 34:42
  It had nothing to do like it had.
• 34:44
  It didn't even. Have So what?
• 34:45
  It had like a cage. It had dude, it was, it had a
• 34:48
  full cage like a like a dash bar like set up.
• 34:52
  There was no steering hooked up to it.
• 34:54
  There was nothing hooked up. It was completely bear chassis,
• 34:58
  so. You.
• 34:58
  OK. And like those like totes like I
• 35:01
  had like 15 totes of like? Old random shit, yeah.
• 35:04
  And then Alexa and Windshield, Yeah, so it was kind of.
• 35:09
  So how'd you where did you build this?
• 35:11
  Yeah. Chris Allen's garage.
• 35:12
  I thought so, yeah. You just started piercing random
• 35:16
  shit together that you could No, I didn't piece anything
• 35:18
  together. So like, if it wasn't for Chris
• 35:21
  and like, you know, Rob Anderton, Mikey Walsh, like
• 35:25
  those, like, thrash bro dudes. I wouldn't.
• 35:29
  I wouldn't even have a car. But like, Chris talked me into
• 35:32
  getting this kids S14. Where that's kind of weird how
• 35:36
  like the dirt bike community and like the drift community kind of
• 35:38
  clash. OK, yeah, because this S14 Kooky
• 35:41
  came up for I remember buying it for like 1200 bucks.
• 35:44
  It was a 98 with 98,000 miles on it.
• 35:49
  It was men, dude. That's That's even a rare price
• 35:52
  then. Dude, it was.
• 35:53
  I I promise you I could probably even look up like the bank
• 35:56
  statement. Cuz those cars usually went for
• 35:58
  like 5 grand I think. Well, no.
• 36:00
  At that time it was 3. Like you can get an S14 at 3:00,
• 36:04
  but nobody did S14 because everybody thought S fourteens
• 36:06
  were heavy. And it was like, it was honestly
• 36:11
  the like best chassis to like, learn how to drift.
• 36:14
  So that that was the drift chance.
• 36:15
  Yeah, it's just it's good. Yeah, then oh.
• 36:17
  It was amazing. Then the FD car.
• 36:19
  Sad. So.
• 36:21
  Nah, that FD car was never even an FD car.
• 36:23
  I didn't even know what the hell FD was, dude.
• 36:25
  So what had happened to that show?
• 36:27
  You have shell. Just sad and Chris's shop until
• 36:29
  like, we can kind of, like figure out what we're going to
• 36:32
  do with it. Yeah, like there was three
• 36:34
  things. That was like stupid hard, like
• 36:36
  #1, who the hell knows? Well, yeah, brake lines.
• 36:40
  I remember one dude was telling me he's like bro, like, you know
• 36:42
  how hard it's going to be to like maneuver the brake lines
• 36:46
  into it That? Sounds like a nightmare to me.
• 36:47
  Yeah, I just ran stainless. Yeah, like the.
• 36:50
  That's the only other option, yeah, and honestly, it worked
• 36:52
  great. I never had an issue with that.
• 36:55
  I never crossed. Where did you wait?
• 36:57
  So you drifted this S14 you got, Yeah.
• 37:00
  Do I know of this car? Yeah.
• 37:01
  So, no, you don't. But I can bring it up on.
• 37:04
  I should have had. You could look, you could look
• 37:05
  it up in my notes, yeah. Like, no, we should have in our
• 37:09
  notes. So.
• 37:10
  You're doing everything right. We're not.
• 37:12
  So I bought stains coils off for swing and put that.
• 37:17
  Slap that on the S14. Chris took out the diff, welded
• 37:20
  it. I've never smelt burnt gear oil
• 37:22
  before. And smells disgusting.
• 37:24
  Oh. Dude, so bad.
• 37:26
  And it doesn't leave, like your nostrils smell like that for
• 37:29
  like, date. Yeah, yeah, I remember eating
• 37:32
  like Filipino food. It just tasted like oil.
• 37:34
  EW. Like springtime in the sperm
• 37:36
  trees, yeah. Oh, I always call them the sperm
• 37:40
  trees, but no one knows what I'm talking about.
• 37:42
  Yeah, exactly. I call them cum trees.
• 37:45
  Can you say that? What are we talking about?
• 37:47
  Can you say that? You too.
• 37:49
  Carl, what are we talking about? You don't know that.
• 37:51
  That smell, the springtime smell, the trees.
• 37:54
  They're boocock. The trees are starting to like
• 37:56
  blossom. It smells like just.
• 37:58
  Where it looks like a bunch of. No it doesn't.
• 38:01
  White. White.
• 38:02
  Holland, Yeah. Cherry blossom trees.
• 38:05
  No. No, it's just small trees.
• 38:07

• 38:10
  No, it smells like it. You smell your cum.
• 38:13
  Hell yeah, like you like. I don't know what.
• 38:17
  We are. Really.
• 38:18
  I don't know, Justin said. It was gonna go.
• 38:20
  Is that in your notebook? No, no it might.
• 38:23
  What? Cuz one of the I mean.
• 38:25
  You know that bottom one is funny that.
• 38:27
  Yeah, that's late. That's.
• 38:28
  That's there on there. But OK, so that's his nut
• 38:32
  question you have. S14 cookie.
• 38:35
  Cookie 98 Warren Motor is in it. Dude, it was a dual Cam.
• 38:39
  Fire, so stop. Fire.
• 38:41
  I had it, dude. I was the only dude on grid with
• 38:44
  the radio. I remember I was blasting 1901.
• 38:48
  I I dude, I can. I can literally like play by
• 38:51
  play of like. So, So what about your first?
• 38:53
  So you take it. You go to your first drift
• 38:56
  event. No, we didn't.
• 38:57
  We went to this parking lot that everyone goes to in Edison.
• 39:01
  And yeah, I almost got arrested that I was sick.
• 39:06
  Was I there? You might have been.
• 39:08
  Cuz I remember I was there with you at one point.
• 39:10
  You came, but I didn't. I wasn't driving at the time.
• 39:13
  OK. But that was that the night.
• 39:15
  No, no, no. That was later on.
• 39:16
  So we welded the dip and I promise you, like that night I'm
• 39:19
  like, we're going drifting. Yeah.
• 39:21
  Absolutely. I didn't know.
• 39:23
  I didn't know shit about drifting my boy like I knew
• 39:26
  second gear. Wait.
• 39:27
  Pause was flips go like already going at this point you guys are
• 39:32
  doing shows going to yeah we were we were straight up
• 39:35
  Volkswagen and just dancing. I remember the Nutley High
• 39:38
  School shows, yo. So that's.
• 39:41
  What I wanna hear about? Further years down the line, I
• 39:43
  wanna hear about this parking lot.
• 39:45
  Thing No, no, no. This is.
• 39:47
  This is after that. Yeah, it is after I started
• 39:49
  drifting after this, like the stand shows and.
• 39:51
  All this, yeah. Yeah.
• 39:53
  Bro, I thought the Nutley High School shows were the ones.
• 39:57
  He wasn't into drifting. We went to Dude, I had no idea.
• 40:00
  Like, I knew drifting was a thing, but drifting was like.
• 40:03
  It wasn't. It was cool, but it wasn't like.
• 40:05
  It was unobtainable, yeah. Yeah, that's what most people
• 40:09
  say. So and and I always felt like,
• 40:11
  you ever see like the like that upperclassmen doing like cool
• 40:14
  shit. Like, I always thought Drifters
• 40:16
  were like those dudes. Like, oh dude, I still.
• 40:18
  Think when I'm when I'm 19 and 20, bro, I'm going to totally
• 40:23
  buy 240 because I could afford all the parts that they get,
• 40:27
  yeah. I think I was my poorest when I
• 40:28
  was 19 and 20 years old. Geez yo, it ramen like the the
• 40:34
  ones in the Styrofoam cups. That's how you know.
• 40:37
  Yeah, that's. I love those.
• 40:38
  Ate a lot of ramen, did you really?
• 40:40
  Oh yeah, bro, did you put, like, ramen?
• 40:43
  I love ramen. Did you eat ramen with like,
• 40:44
  ketchup? Not drinking was what.
• 40:46
  Not drinking was my key to being able to afford things.
• 40:50
  I don't put a can of tuna in there though.
• 40:52
  Now you cut up some spam and then you throw it in there.
• 40:54
  And a little bit of just put a little bit.
• 40:56
  Of why not put a little bit more sodium in there too?
• 40:58
  Yeah, right, right. But that's meat, bro.
• 41:01
  That's protein. Depends on who you ask.
• 41:03
  But I could afford it. It was a dollar, dude.
• 41:06
  You can't even put a Chipotle that's under $10 anymore.
• 41:09
  Spam is so expensive now. Spam and eggs?
• 41:11
  Bro with rice. So hungry ramen with an egg.
• 41:15
  No bro, wait. I just realized we haven't been
• 41:19
  addressing the chat, but somebody said 89 Kev hot sauce
• 41:23
  and lime and ramen. Oh hell yeah.
• 41:25
  Well done that. My lime shit.
• 41:29
  My what's it called my Mexican friend showing me that.
• 41:31
  That's a hack. Wow.
• 41:32
  I'm gonna go home and try that shit.
• 41:34
  Yeah, You ever do. Like what?
• 41:36
  Egg rolls? Like Duck sauce.
• 41:37
  And wait, yeah, that's like. Duck sauce and mustard?
• 41:39
  Yeah, that's like I've never done.
• 41:40
  That's sweet and spicy. I'm gonna try that.
• 41:42
  That's like Pansa Canton. Yeah, pretty much, yeah.
• 41:44
  That's basically what it is, yeah.
• 41:46
  But more sauce with lime but more Sabao like yeah.
• 41:48
  Panset Canton is a Filipino dish and sabao min soup.
• 41:52
  I'm like, all right, here we go. We're at that part of the
• 41:54
  conversation where I don't. Understand anything.
• 41:56
  Frankie has no input because Frankie's gonna marry a Filipino
• 41:59
  chick if you keep hanging out with them.
• 42:01
  That would be nice. You guys got friends, Yo, if
• 42:05
  you're a Filipino chick and you're watching this slide into
• 42:07
  his DMS, Yep, Yep, he drifts. Well, just something to Frankie.
• 42:12
  The relevance of me mentioning Punta Canton when someone said
• 42:15
  lime and hot sauce. The key ingredient of Punta
• 42:18
  Canton is ramen, obviously. But there's a.
• 42:22
  It's like a lime or lemons. Like, yeah, it's called.
• 42:27
  It's not commenting. Damn bro.
• 42:29
  Or. He's half Filipino, is he?
• 42:32
  Yeah, Yes. Oh, you fucking damn.
• 42:34
  Yeah, I'm surrounded. More Filipino than me.
• 42:36
  Come on, sip that Miller lie. You deserve that.
• 42:39
  Malco Saver Beer is Budweiser. I would have brought it, but.
• 42:44
  Wait, yeah, I'm going to rally us back to to.
• 42:47
  Our good luck. What were we talking about?
• 42:50
  You're really trying to follow this notebook.
• 42:51
  No, I'm not. That's a change.
• 42:52
  Well, I keep forgetting there's people watching this, like,
• 42:55
  probably like so. That's the.
• 42:56
  That's the key that I forget. We don't.
• 42:58
  We don't. We're live.
• 42:59
  We don't edit. This show, by the way, sorry to
• 43:01
  everyone that is wondering why there's a battle going on in the
• 43:05
  background. Ethan always decides to come
• 43:08
  here on the podcast day. I think they understand that
• 43:11
  this is a running, functioning shop.
• 43:12
  All right, I hope so, cuz I can barely stand this.
• 43:15
  Realist back so. Big.
• 43:18
  Beginning of flips, going car related things like what were
• 43:21
  you started? I did get that.
• 43:22
  What did you start to do? So we started with it was cool
• 43:27
  cuz I went to shout out to like really like like I grew up with
• 43:33
  this kid, Michael Jidia. Yeah, he brought me to Waterfest
• 43:37
  for the first time and I I I swore on my debt.
• 43:40
  Like I literally that day dude. Like there was the Unitronic
• 43:44
  Chicks that were walking around and like it was cool.
• 43:47
  Like APR had like a solid dope booth and I was just like the
• 43:51
  brand was like we were selling, but like we were like kind of
• 43:54
  like friends of friends. Yeah.
• 43:56
  And you know we kind of stayed in this.
• 43:58
  Like I had like this shirt that's at Beast Coast
• 44:00
  originality with the East Coast like highlighted and it was
• 44:04
  really like that. We were selling more in like a
• 44:07
  hypee shops or like street Ware shops and you say hypes cuz like
• 44:11
  nobody like says that. That is the thing though, yeah.
• 44:14
  But that's what I was selling. I was, like, selling just like
• 44:16
  sneaker heads and like, hypes, dudes.
• 44:17
  And that's where I feel like I saw it first.
• 44:19
  That's why I drew this. Yeah, well just so happens that
• 44:22
  all those people got into stance cars.
• 44:24
  Yeah, which was awesome. Let it go.
• 44:26
  Yeah, but it was all Volkswagens like it somehow, someway like
• 44:30
  that's actually how I got met. My wife was from Waterfest cuz
• 44:33
  like there she was friends with like and this girl that modeled
• 44:38
  for Flipsco at the time and I told my wife at the time I was
• 44:42
  like you either model for me or like we're dating bro so so like
• 44:47
  cuz I didn't I didn't. All's on this guy, bro.
• 44:50
  I didn't want She didn't even like me at the time.
• 44:52
  She was like, what the fuck are you talking about, bro?
• 44:55
  I'm just like, if we're dead, she's like, we're not dating.
• 44:57
  Yeah, like, oh, OK. I'm like, well, we going to, you
• 45:00
  know, but but yeah, I went to that nation right there.
• 45:05
  I went to that water fest the first time and I was like, yo,
• 45:07
  this is sick. It was like BMX, it was skate.
• 45:09
  It was like everybody who, like was at your skate park grown up,
• 45:13
  like with car stuff. So it was super cool to see that
• 45:17
  because no matter who it was, it didn't matter what culture it
• 45:21
  was. It seemed like the car community
• 45:22
  always brought everybody together at the same exact spot
• 45:25
  at the same exact day. And you could see this dude at
• 45:28
  the racetrack when you were 11, or you could see him at the
• 45:32
  skate park when you were like 12 or whatever.
• 45:33
  And then you meet him up there again and they're like, yo,
• 45:36
  isn't that like, isn't that Carl?
• 45:38
  Isn't that Chris like? Yeah, I got a Jetta now.
• 45:41
  Mark Fort. Yeah, yeah, TDI swap.
• 45:43
  Brand new chipped bro, You got the APR tune.
• 45:48
  Hair cool, brother. I always, I always think that's
• 45:51
  crazy. Is that that those two?
• 45:55
  It's so fucking stereotypical, but it's always true.
• 46:00
  You meet somebody who drifts, but it wasn't the Honda game,
• 46:03
  dude. No, but if you meet somebody who
• 46:05
  strictly I'm talking about drifting, they did BMX,
• 46:09
  skateboarding, snowboarding, scooter, something that you can
• 46:12
  injure yourself. Drifting is the outcast, and
• 46:15
  it's. Part of the.
• 46:17
  Automotive, Motorsport world, gas, bro.
• 46:20
  And it's cheaper like. Now it's not really anymore
• 46:22
  cheaper, but it wasn't like, I mean way cheaper than true.
• 46:25
  Like, I guess auto cross and drifting could be similar, yeah.
• 46:29
  I auto. Crossed for a little bit.
• 46:31
  Like if we were, if we ran a Thunderbolt, we would be no, we
• 46:35
  would be running like you'd probably spend double the amount
• 46:38
  in one weekend than you've ever done like in your like 4 or.
• 46:41
  Five, You need to, you need to buy tires and they need to be
• 46:43
  the expensive ones. And then breaks.
• 46:46
  Yeah. And then you have to get like,
• 46:47
  it's like, yeah, breaks. I never really understood that,
• 46:50
  but like. I feel like it equals out
• 46:52
  because drifting. I'm not just buying.
• 46:55
  I don't think it well the dip. I gotta buy a body kit that's
• 46:58
  gonna eventually break and then I gotta buy a seed.
• 47:00
  And then you don't have to buy any of that you did.
• 47:03
  Yeah, you prefer. It's it's a preference.
• 47:04
  You were the worst influence on me because you would go.
• 47:07
  Up to me, he was the worst. Don't listen to him.
• 47:11
  What? What is literally happening?
• 47:13
  Don't listen to him. Currently I'm like, you're
• 47:15
  bullying this Filipino. Now I'm like Frankie.
• 47:18
  I don't. Know I was a good influence.
• 47:20
  You were the you listen dude, like you.
• 47:23
  I remember it. Like, First off, I remember
• 47:27
  Frankie, when I rolled up, everybody was giving me props on
• 47:29
  my car. They were like, yo, the S 13
• 47:30
  1/2. That's sick.
• 47:32
  And then he hated that thing. He was like, oh, because
• 47:35
  Frankie's a purist guy. Why did you convert that?
• 47:37
  Like. I should not.
• 47:38
  Say that. Bro, you dead ass on the 1st I
• 47:41
  remember dude, I can literally name the day.
• 47:43
  It was literally opening moves and you're like Britt, why do
• 47:45
  you do that to that? I did not say that.
• 47:48
  Oh my God. I definitely thought it.
• 47:50
  You said it, bro out loud. No, you just read my mind.
• 47:53
  I remember. I was like, who?
• 47:54
  The fuck is this guy? I was just like I swear to God
• 47:59
  dude. Like, cuz I was just like, yo,
• 48:00
  I'm just here to drift. Like I don't know who the fuck
• 48:02
  this guy is, it's but. Frankie Bovino, man.
• 48:05
  Most. People, most people are probably
• 48:06
  like, wow, an S15 front. You got money?
• 48:08
  And then I come over and like, why the fuck would you put that
• 48:11
  on, bro? Listen, I just had.
• 48:13
  All I'm saying is I may have not drifted better than you, but I
• 48:16
  actually had big boy tires on there.
• 48:18
  Yeah, you probably did. I did.
• 48:19
  What size 255? Yeah, probably 18 at that time.
• 48:24
  I probably had two fifteens on my phone.
• 48:27
  Dude. Nothing wrong with it.
• 48:28
  I'm 225 now and then I had like a crack like right in the middle
• 48:32
  of the bumper cuz I went flying off track.
• 48:34
  So I tried. I tried to do the the zip tied
• 48:36
  drift stitch. Thing Wait, what track are we
• 48:38
  talking? My check was C course back
• 48:42
  track. No car, track or front.
• 48:43
  Yeah, I went flying off that thing, dude.
• 48:46
  Oh cuz I was just like. Not a lot of good places to fly
• 48:49
  off there, no. I flew off on the uphill.
• 48:52
  I don't even know how the hell you do that, but I did.
• 48:55
  Like go around first corner and then yeah cuz I did the shimmy
• 48:59
  skid, straighten shimmy skid and then floor it up to the hill and
• 49:04
  then there was no media bank there or barrier.
• 49:08
  So I just, like, didn't know that it goes that way.
• 49:10
  Yeah, so I went. I can see that.
• 49:13
  Like, and then I, Yeah. And then I I I didn't at the
• 49:16
  time. Like, I I don't know.
• 49:18
  You could relate. Like, everybody could relate
• 49:20
  here. Like when you go off track
• 49:21
  drifting, you get to a certain point where you're just like,
• 49:24
  fuck it, like, whatever, dude. Like we're going off course.
• 49:28
  I'm gonna learn today, you know. And I already did it once.
• 49:31
  Now if I do that bro, I can't move the next day like my back
• 49:35
  is done. Are you too old?
• 49:37
  I'm old, bro. You're on too.
• 49:38
  You're older than me, maybe. Yeah bro, I've seen you under a
• 49:41
  car with a I've seen you under a car with a 916.
• 49:45
  OK, literally, like, hold on, Let's get ASMR straight up, my
• 49:51
  boy. I've seen it.
• 49:52
  You got? To get those stretches in man
• 49:54
  stretches. Dude, don't.
• 49:55
  Don't. Don't you don't?
• 49:56
  Test yoga. Don't fucking.
• 49:58
  Test this guy. He should be.
• 50:00
  He is the most athletic one out of all of us here right now.
• 50:03
  I've seen Malcolm outrun him. I we tested it.
• 50:05
  We I took this motherfucker hiking and I was like, I'm out
• 50:08
  gassed Frankie. And then I forgot.
• 50:09
  Every morning this motherfucker is climbing stairs, going to his
• 50:12
  roof texting me in the morning saying stay hard like.
• 50:18
  I'm David Goggins. In his ass?
• 50:20
  What time are you up? Actually up?
• 50:23
  Yeah, if I'm not gonna lie, probably 7.
• 50:26
  I'm up at 4:00. I go to sleep.
• 50:28
  Yeah, but you can't even get under a car and turn a wrench
• 50:31
  without crying. So I'm a bitch, Straight up
• 50:35
  bitch. No, I'm still working on cars
• 50:36
  like I thought. I can do it.
• 50:38
  Fuck that. Yeah man, I wish you could try
• 50:41
  to stay on track here, but fuck, when did you realize that you
• 50:44
  that you couldn't work when I bought a vet.
• 50:46
  No, it was like the last event, right?
• 50:49
  The fucking last event I don't even want to talk about because
• 50:52
  I should have never touched the fucking car.
• 50:54
  Wait, I think I watched your YouTube video of me hating.
• 50:58
  Working on the fucking car. Yeah, because I was.
• 51:00
  So listen, you don't know, like, work if you work on the ground,
• 51:05
  in the shop, on Jack stands. Stay like that.
• 51:09
  Don't ever get a lift. Don't.
• 51:11
  Because once you get it, you're bitch.
• 51:13
  You can't go back. Not that you're a bitch, but
• 51:15
  like, it's like so convenient that if you work on the ground,
• 51:18
  fuck that shit. I mean, I'm over.
• 51:20
  I already feel that way. If I have to work on the ground,
• 51:21
  I'm like. I really have to do this, right?
• 51:23
  You used to come up to me at Englishtown like, and I'd be
• 51:26
  wrenching on my car because it's always broken.
• 51:28
  Like when I made it to a group, that car always broke.
• 51:31
  But then Frankie would come on, like, dude, come on, we run in
• 51:33
  tandems and I'd be like under the car.
• 51:35
  Like, yeah, dude, give me like 5 minutes now.
• 51:37
  Fuck that. Nope.
• 51:38
  Done for the day. Yeah, I I know.
• 51:40
  How, Yeah. Yeah.
• 51:42
  Oh really, Frank? I only got a tighten like 210
• 51:44
  millimeter bolts. Now I'm like Nah.
• 51:46
  That's like Tom. I'm watching Tom at the track
• 51:48
  fixes like replaces 990th transmission.
• 51:52
  Yeah, I saw a welder busting out at every day.
• 51:55
  I wouldn't even do that. I'd be like I.
• 51:57
  Did that. I'm two days ago, yeah, but at
• 51:59
  the track I dropped the trans on my ribs.
• 52:02
  It sucked. Yeah, then you went inside and
• 52:04
  cried. But if you're at the track, you
• 52:05
  can't do that. Nothing like dropping a diff
• 52:07
  underneath the car on your chest.
• 52:09
  Wow, it sounded so wrong. Like.
• 52:11
  And then having your buddy pull your legs out.
• 52:12
  You ever have a diff? Dump on your chest.
• 52:17
  Not as bad as a trans drop. Have you ever get Have you ever
• 52:20
  gotten slapped by a diff before? Dude, you ever said you ever
• 52:23
  unscrew the axles or unscrew, unbolt the axles and then the
• 52:27
  fucking axle decides to just smack you in the back of the
• 52:29
  fucking head? Oh, and you got gear fluid on
• 52:31
  you. Oh damn.
• 52:33
  That's ever happened to. Why do you need to whisper it
• 52:35
  like that? Maybe kind of uncomfortable you
• 52:37
  got bukake by an axle, Just axle.
• 52:41
  Like the grease? Yeah dude, fuck that grease.
• 52:43
  I can't stand. If you get trans fluid or gear
• 52:45
  fluid on you, that's that's a wrap for the day.
• 52:48
  That's I'm going home you'll. And then like you, you have to
• 52:52
  if it. If you let it dry, it's the
• 52:54
  fucking worst. And if it gets on your clothes
• 52:56
  enough, really, those are done. Ruin clothes are always smelling
• 52:59
  like grease, yeah. Gear oil though, is like, that's
• 53:02
  next level. Listen guys, all I'm saying is
• 53:04
  nobody else has kids here. You either smell like grease and
• 53:07
  oil, or you could smell like baby formula and throw up.
• 53:10
  So either pick. One Yeah, you're right.
• 53:12
  Gear Oil's OK. Gear Oil's good, bro.
• 53:15
  Cheaper too. So Carl, do I bring up that
• 53:19
  you're smoking doinks now or later?
• 53:25
  I felt. I felt like I wait.
• 53:27
  I'd wait until like, you know. You waited a long time.
• 53:30
  We're gonna, we're gonna bury it in this podcast.
• 53:33
  Right in the middle, they'll never hear.
• 53:34
  They'll never hear that. Wait, why did this live just
• 53:37
  black out? I don't for like 5 minutes.
• 53:39
  I don't know. I don't even.
• 53:41
  Let's bring it back, Carl. Yeah.
• 53:43
  So flips go evolves a little bit.
• 53:47
  Was there a turning point where you decided to combine the two?
• 53:51
  No drifting and Flipsco? No.
• 53:54
  Like you never read Flipsco on the S14.
• 53:56
  Like big banner of it. I feel like I remember.
• 53:58
  Flipsco was his life. That's him, yeah.
• 54:00
  So Flipsco was like kind of like an excuse to like to like.
• 54:05
  Tax write off. No, none of that shit, bro.
• 54:07
  Listen, bro, come on. No, it was legit.
• 54:10
  Like, all right, So when I was raised in dirt bugs every week
• 54:13
  and I had an excuse. Why don't you drink?
• 54:15
  Why don't you party? Why don't you do this shit?
• 54:18
  There you go. I got a race this weekend.
• 54:21
  Drifting came into my life and it was just like, yo, why can't
• 54:24
  you go out to so and so's party and what the hell of college is
• 54:29
  in? Like I forget.
• 54:31
  It's like W something. I forget whatever it is, there's
• 54:34
  a. Corp I know, Yeah, you've
• 54:35
  definitely every Filipino goes there to party, dude.
• 54:38
  Where I would think like probably Montclair.
• 54:42
  Montclair was a thing and then every all I remember.
• 54:44
  Oh Willie P there you go. Oh no see I told you they just
• 54:48
  call that Willy. Willy Filipino my boy.
• 54:51
  But Willy Pinoy. Willy Pinoy school.
• 54:54
  But but that as bro like that's all they did.
• 54:56
  Like they everybody just wanted to like you know I mean I don't
• 55:00
  want to get you guys demonetized but everybody would rather just
• 55:02
  fucking you know drink and smoke weed and bullshit and waste
• 55:06
  their money doing that. When I wanted to waste money on
• 55:08
  building a car, that kind of was like my excuse or my getaway.
• 55:13
  I don't want to say excuse, just a getaway of like what everybody
• 55:16
  else is doing, because I've never done it in high school.
• 55:18
  I've never done what everybody else is doing, so I might as
• 55:20
  well stick to the bases. It's bullshit now that all these
• 55:23
  dirt bike dudes and drift dudes like bag chicks.
• 55:26
  And it's like the new thing, like because of TikTok and shit.
• 55:29
  I haven't gotten a single female because I said I drifted.
• 55:33
  In fact. In fact, you got it.
• 55:36
  You got to hit third gear. And and then you'll see.
• 55:38
  Bro, I I literally bring up my phone like and and let's say I I
• 55:41
  God forbid get get get in a conversation with a female and
• 55:46
  and they see like I'm showing like they'll see like a picture
• 55:49
  of my dog and then like 6 things of drifting.
• 55:52
  Bro, the fuck is what's your pickup line when you're talking
• 55:54

  Ever. I mean, I'll mention this, I do
• 56:08
  have a hinge account and there's nothing.
• 56:09
  Hey yo. Drifting related.
• 56:12
  Nothing correlated at all. Only my occupation.
• 56:16
  I'm a master technician. That's all you need.
• 56:19
  Then you're definitely gonna get girls with broken cars.
• 56:21
  Like what? Do you work on Porsches.
• 56:22
  Ferraris. Yeah.
• 56:24
  You know, Gambos. I specially in Hurricanes Chris,

  follow the notebook? On how the tangents in this
• 56:43
  podcast. Well, he tells us a story.
• 56:45
  And then? Yeah, you know, and then we we
• 56:47
  we. And then Carl keeps going and
• 56:48
  keep. You know but so.
• 56:51
  Yeah, I know. But we're yeah, I can't do an
• 56:53
  interview. Let's talk about the Nutley High
• 56:55
  School. Car shows, yeah, a little.
• 56:57
  Bit cuz cuz then that That's further down, isn't it?
• 56:59
  No, that's all that's all like that's all like after Water
• 57:03
  Fest. Cuz like I remember showing up
• 57:04
  to Water Fest as a booth bro $900.00 for a booth at the time
• 57:08
  was like. Holy, sounds like a shit.
• 57:10
  Look, I remember seeing Flips Go stickers everywhere.
• 57:12
  Yeah, I was like, fuck is the Flips go well because we all
• 57:16
  right so. Then I found out you, I know for
• 57:19
  a fact you would remember cuz like we would bring the party to
• 57:21
  whatever event we were at like everybody else wanted.
• 57:25
  No, no, no, not like that, not like that, but like so everybody
• 57:28
  would be like I remember seeing 1 booth Euromedian and like APR
• 57:32
  and yeah it was cool but it was still corporate.
• 57:34
  Yeah, like we brought like I wanted to have fun so like all
• 57:38
  my friends were surrounded in the booth so we got like water
• 57:41
  guns. Like I remember we had.
• 57:42
  We were giving away shirts for who could ever hit 3 cups on a.
• 57:47
  There was obviously no beer in it, but like we would set up
• 57:49
  water pog and it would Chuck. Whoever gets 3 cups wins a free
• 57:52
  shirt. That's cool.
• 57:53
  We lost a lot of shit, I feel. Like I always did remember,
• 57:56
  Flipsco was always like a bumping ass booth.
• 57:58
  Yeah, it's just because we wanted like if we're going to be
• 58:02
  there all day, we didn't like. And a lot of.
• 58:05
  I know for a fact that in time like, we just didn't want to
• 58:08
  follow the rules of what everybody else was doing because
• 58:11
  it was just. Because it was a different
• 58:13
  fucking. World back then, dude.
• 58:14
  Yeah, Well, see, here's the thing.
• 58:16
  Like everybody who showed up to a car show didn't hate on each
• 58:18
  other. Like I.
• 58:20
  Feel like, well, you're talking about before Instagram?
• 58:22
  Yeah, we were talking about before or just the.

  Yeah, Frankie and my fucking Ass 15 from Bumper.
• 58:37
  Jesus Christ. That's a rap, dude.
• 58:41
  No, there's just the fact that it was a S15 front on a patch.
• 58:45
  Now you're like, you know what? I did say that, no.
• 58:48
  I definitely thought, oh is all right.
• 58:51
  First off, because I remember that fucking comment, they're
• 58:55
  cool. The second, then I started
• 58:57
  liking you because I was just like, all right, he's cool.
• 59:00
  And like when we taned them together and you're like bro, I

• 1:00:12
  He was just like, yeah, bro 250. And I'm like, this is like a
• 1:00:15
  fucking crackhead deal right now.
• 1:00:18
  Like they're gonna fucking kill me.
• 1:00:20
  Bro, I didn't even fucking see your face.
• 1:00:22
  You literally, like, turn the fucking lights off and this is
• 1:00:25
  you with a fucking leather Jet 250.
• 1:00:30
  And I was, I was literally like and then you were, I was trying
• 1:00:32
  to start conversation with you. Because I just who I am.
• 1:00:34
  No. Yeah, you were like, get the
• 1:00:36
  fuck out of. You So I really didn't.
• 1:00:37
  We didn't know each other at all.
• 1:00:38
  No, not at all. That's pretty funny actually,
• 1:00:41
  bro. You literally like, I remember
• 1:00:43
  this. And how would I know I couldn't
• 1:00:45
  make this shit up? Because not many people know
• 1:00:47
  about that shop I. Didn't even see Dave.
• 1:00:49
  Didn't know about that, bro. I didn't even see it.
• 1:00:51
  I didn't even see a 2, 40. I was like this kid.
• 1:00:53
  Definitely fucking right. It's not even a shop, it's just
• 1:00:57
  a shed in the middle of a field. And it was.
• 1:01:00
  It was. It was flooded.
• 1:01:02
  Yeah. It was during a flood.
• 1:01:04
  Because you had no lights in that thing.
• 1:01:05
  Yeah, dude, it's bad. I'm like, this kid couldn't meet
• 1:01:08
  me at like a fucking 711. Like he had to meet me this.
• 1:01:11
  Fucking it. What, dude?
• 1:01:13
  It literally like, I remember rolling up into it too in the
• 1:01:15
  fields, and I was just like, holy shit, if maybe if it wasn't
• 1:01:18
  dark, it would probably look like a really nice place.
• 1:01:20
  But no, it was not nice. It literally looked like
• 1:01:23
  jeepers. Creepers type, Yeah.
• 1:01:24
  That's what I'm thinking, yeah. So you met him, bought this
• 1:01:27
  differential. I needed it.
• 1:01:29
  I needed the diff. Wow, that's not like.
• 1:01:31
  Fucking I needed the diff. I needed the dip.
• 1:01:34
  But then we like, become. We didn't become friends, right?
• 1:01:37
  You know. Yeah, I was probably just like.
• 1:01:39
  Alright, bye. Give me that money.
• 1:01:40
  See you. Yeah, no 'cause I remember
• 1:01:42
  talking to you. You're like, What Car do you
• 1:01:43
  got? And I'm like and that's 13A
• 1:01:46
  hatch and you're like all right well motor you we got in it.
• 1:01:49
  I was like 1 Gen. you're like, oh fuck you.
• 1:01:51
  No, I did not say that fucking posing.
• 1:01:56
  What year is this? I know you're a big year guy.
• 1:01:58
  Do you know what year this is? I had to been like 1819, so,
• 1:02:02
  like maybe like 2011, yeah. 12 or something if if, depending on
• 1:02:06
  What Car I had. I probably had S14, so I didn't
• 1:02:08
  know what the fuck you drove, dude.
• 1:02:10
  Yeah, I wouldn't want to ask West Side Story.
• 1:02:13
  I probably just got into drifting then.
• 1:02:15
  No, you you were like the dude, you everybody.
• 1:02:18
  You followed everybody? Maybe for like a year or two
• 1:02:22
  maybe. I don't know cuz we we were
• 1:02:25
  almost the same age. So bro, I don't know. 1819 years
• 1:02:30
  old, so I was getting. Weird bro 2012. 2011 Yeah, that
• 1:02:33
  makes sense. All I know is I voted that from
• 1:02:35
  you and then I didn't I. Just OK Now when did we actually
• 1:02:38
  become friends today? No, honestly.
• 1:02:47
  Like I feel like and not to like toot any horns or anything, but
• 1:02:50
  like it was like blood masters faction and then the flips code
• 1:02:55
  dudes that nobody ever really wanted to drive with because
• 1:02:59
  that was like the beginning of let's fuck each other's cars up.
• 1:03:04
  And I remember because Frankie's like I don't know like what do
• 1:03:07
  you mean you're like I remember you telling me the straight up.
• 1:03:10
  You like those flips code dudes. I'm like those flips.
• 1:03:12
  Code dudes Do what? And it like you fucking run into
• 1:03:15
  each other and I'm like, yeah, if you're going slow.
• 1:03:17
  Oh, I kind of remember this. Yeah, you got.
• 1:03:20
  Well, that wasn't you. It was Chris Allen, Yeah.
• 1:03:22
  No. So it was all the dude like
• 1:03:24
  Chris was like the the one dude like.
• 1:03:27
  Who else? There was another Sal de Pompo,
• 1:03:31
  Rob Anderton. We even had Matt Pawley at the
• 1:03:34
  time. Yeah, you guys were just.
• 1:03:36
  Banging doors the whole way around the track?
• 1:03:38
  Yeah, Yeah. So it was actually just crisp
• 1:03:40
  bullying And then pushing the pack into each other.
• 1:03:43
  Yeah, so. Jesus.
• 1:03:45
  No. Wasn't there a really bad
• 1:03:46
  accident once, but that was later on?
• 1:03:47
  No. But yeah, that was like freedom
• 1:03:49
  moves in. 17 or 8 I just became a group and I'm glad I don't
• 1:03:53
  drive at night and there's reasons why.
• 1:03:56
  Glaucoma I can't see. I don't know.
• 1:04:01
  You. Said there's reasons so.
• 1:04:03
  Hey, yo. No, I just.
• 1:04:05
  I just can't. I physically like the lights.
• 1:04:07
  Like, what? Is it a stigmatism or some?
• 1:04:09
  Shit, dude, It's not easy to see on that track at night.
• 1:04:12
  All I know is like, I remember trying driving once and it
• 1:04:15
  wasn't a tandem and I just was like, fuck, that's where that's
• 1:04:19
  where the center section is. Holy shit cuz I'm all the way
• 1:04:21
  on. I'm all the way in the fucking
• 1:04:23
  grass over there. They're like night drifting.
• 1:04:25
  Don't worry, we got lights coming up.
• 1:04:26
  Turn one. You're just like, Yep, there's
• 1:04:28
  the light, and that's all you see.
• 1:04:29
  Yeah, just blinded. Yeah.
• 1:04:31
  And I'm like, well, I don't know where the track is.
• 1:04:33
  And then if you're following someone that makes a lot of
• 1:04:34
  smoke, I actually met you in C Group We.
• 1:04:37
  Were. Is this it?
• 1:04:38
  Is this Is this? I think so.
• 1:04:39
  You guys actually met but. What were you?
• 1:04:41
  We didn't do this, but yes, yeah, you.
• 1:04:44
  Did some of this. What were you?
• 1:04:46
  What were you driving then? I was driving an S14 Kooky.
• 1:04:49
  And then I met you from stone back, because stone back, Stone
• 1:04:54
  back was actually the whole reason why like I even, like,
• 1:04:57
  knew how to link shit. Like, all right, put that in
• 1:05:00
  your perspective. Your first drift event and then
• 1:05:04
  Jeff Stone back goes, hey, I see what you're doing wrong.
• 1:05:07
  Let me drive your car. Yeah, that sounds.
• 1:05:09
  That sounds accurate. Yeah.
• 1:05:11
  So I remember he was just like, OK, he showed, we did one sight
• 1:05:14
  lap. He showed me exactly what to
• 1:05:17
  pinpoint for and to look for. I was again, stock Dual Cam had
• 1:05:21
  the A/C blasting, Didn't know dressing with A/C couldn't
• 1:05:24
  really like mess your stuff up. No.
• 1:05:26
  So he's like, we're going to turn this off and we're going to
• 1:05:29
  turn the music off. And then I had the worst helmet.
• 1:05:32
  I had The Stig helmet. So, like, you can barely see.
• 1:05:34
  Oh God, yeah. So I remember Stone back saying
• 1:05:37
  to me straight up it was funny because I've been on grid,
• 1:05:41
  didn't know we switched. And I don't know if it's just
• 1:05:43
  because we're both look Asian or we're both Asian while we look
• 1:05:46
  Asian over both Asian that they were like, what the fuck is this
• 1:05:49
  kid doing? Because he started from
• 1:05:51
  backtrack of C Group and fucking darted towards the first turn.
• 1:05:56
  And a K, A and a KA. They're about 50, Bro 52, Gallo
• 1:06:04
  24. Bro.
• 1:06:05
  But he was flying, bro. And I remember him passing GRID
• 1:06:08
  and I remember Dave, NJ was standing there like what the?
• 1:06:11
  Fuck is he doing because he. Blew through, yeah.
• 1:06:15
  He blew through the like grid and he was going for it, bro.
• 1:06:19
  He was in fourth year and all I heard was Jeff in the cargo and
• 1:06:23
  I'm like, what the fuck is wait? Are you?
• 1:06:25
  You're in the car. I was in the passenger.
• 1:06:27
  Oh God bro. He fucking launched my E brake
• 1:06:29
  and he how? Scared, were you?
• 1:06:31
  I was fucking terrified. Yeah, I would be.
• 1:06:33
  Dude, he was 4th gear wide open. My fucking K was like fucking
• 1:06:38
  done dude. And then he, I remember fully,
• 1:06:41
  he dropped a third clutch, kicked entry, and then I just
• 1:06:44
  felt the car go and I just, I never saw a tire wall that many
• 1:06:49
  times. Yeah.
• 1:06:51
  So you entered and forth, bro, and he never, doesn't even know
• 1:06:54
  your car, bro. I have it like GoPro 5 or some
• 1:06:58
  shit. And he's just fucking laughing
• 1:07:00
  his ass off and I'm just sitting nearly like because he's a pro,
• 1:07:05
  like, you know, he's a fucking pro.
• 1:07:06
  So you're going to be like, yeah, it.
• 1:07:08
  Was totally cool dude. Fucking terrified dude.
• 1:07:12
  But he murked that thing and after he showed me how to drive
• 1:07:17
  like I wasn't, You can't get scared after somebody does that
• 1:07:21
  and the passenger seats like 10 times worse than the drivers
• 1:07:24
  100%. So when that happened, what he
• 1:07:27
  said to you? Nothing.
• 1:07:29
  He just told me straight up like don't be a bitch.
• 1:07:33
  I remember him and Steve, Steve Snyder and fuck the other guy,
• 1:07:39
  he said. They literally said to me they
• 1:07:41
  were like, you look good for this being your first day drift
• 1:07:44
  thing. We're going to give you the best
• 1:07:46
  advice possible. I mean there was some jokes here
• 1:07:49
  and there, like there's like quit, you know?
• 1:07:52
  And then and then there was the now.
• 1:07:53
  For real though, if you feel like you're going fast, go
• 1:07:57
  faster. And that was the best advice
• 1:07:59
  I've ever gotten from any drifter.
• 1:08:01
  Because that's also too why I learned treat it like a 2 stroke
• 1:08:06
  dirt bike instead of driving it like a car.
• 1:08:09
  Yeah, well that's good too. So you're driving, dude.
• 1:08:14
  Like Stone back told me straight up.
• 1:08:16
  He's just like, yo, don't worry about breaking anything because
• 1:08:19
  if you worry about breaking the clutch because I was telling him
• 1:08:22
  I'm like, oh, I don't want to beat on it, It's a 98.
• 1:08:27
  Got her a steal. Yeah, dude, I paid $1200 for
• 1:08:30
  this fucking thing, dude. Like you know how many matchbox?
• 1:08:32
  Toys I had to fucking sell for this thing, but like, straight
• 1:08:35
  up bro. Like I remember him telling me
• 1:08:37
  he's just like don't be a bitch, go out and and then do it.
• 1:08:40
  So like I was it was weird because that for like right
• 1:08:46
  after that whole situation happened, I linked all the way
• 1:08:48
  up to the hairpin and I carried it into the bank.
• 1:08:52
  And I'm so happy I didn't do the bank because it took me a lot of
• 1:08:55
  years to do the bank after that. I feel like you were doing, you
• 1:08:58
  started doing the bank when we were drifting.
• 1:09:00
  No. Yeah, I was.
• 1:09:01
  You were in B group with me. So I don't really remember.
• 1:09:05
  Like, I remember it when we were both A group that was like a
• 1:09:08
  whole nother level of like we were pushing.
• 1:09:11
  Like, I remember you were going apeshit and B group to get up.
• 1:09:15
  And I remember looking at you and like, I remember it's weird.
• 1:09:19
  But every time, like, you become best friends with people on grid
• 1:09:21
  when you're just like and then they're like, it's so fucking
• 1:09:24
  weird, but it's stupid, but it's just like, it's like, yeah, it's
• 1:09:27
  like, it's like, yeah. I saw that.
• 1:09:30
  Yeah, bro. Sick dude.
• 1:09:32
  Like and you didn't even see there.
• 1:09:34
  Wrong. That's why I don't remember when
• 1:09:35
  we became friends, because it was just at the track and it
• 1:09:38
  just was everyone there. We really became friends during
• 1:09:41
  that Hoonigan day. Oh, that private day.
• 1:09:46
  No, they had a private day or something.
• 1:09:50
  Is this when I mean he still is? Yeah, Hurt was like, Hurt was
• 1:09:49
  like everyone's. There was two days that hurt was
• 1:09:54
  there. Did he have his car or no?
• 1:09:57
  It was barely running, and Cher Slayer drove.
• 1:10:00
  Then that was, yeah, cuz there was another event that Hoonigan
• 1:10:04
  did and me and Justin were there, but I don't know if
• 1:10:06
  anyone else was there. And he was like, yeah, we got
• 1:10:09
  some like contest winners and he like.
• 1:10:11
  I don't even think we did ride along.
• 1:10:13
  Oh, no, we did some ride alongs and then they they just wanted
• 1:10:15
  us to, like, drift on the track and like, this was before you
• 1:10:18
  could like, have private days and shit.
• 1:10:20
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:10:20
  So this was like, it was weird. Yeah, it was sick.
• 1:10:24
  It was like, oh, you're gonna what the fuck you taking that?
• 1:10:27
  Duke. Duke.
• 1:10:29
  No. All right, he said.
• 1:10:30
  He says his pee is. Poop.
• 1:10:32
  He's gonna poop. So fast he had that Miller Light
• 1:10:33
  like me and I'm I've been turtle head and never said.
• 1:10:35
  Oh Lord. Wait, what?
• 1:10:40
  But yeah, that was back when, like there wasn't.
• 1:10:42
  There wasn't really private. You either knew Jeff Stone back
• 1:10:45
  or you couldn't do a private day.
• 1:10:46
  That was pretty much it, and that's How I Met Chris Knapp.
• 1:10:48
  That day too. Oh, really?
• 1:10:50
  Yeah. And.
• 1:10:51
  I didn't meet Chris Knapp to like a long time and that feel
• 1:10:54
  like it was weird because me and Chris Knapp didn't really like
• 1:10:56
  bro out until until it came out to like fishing.
• 1:10:59
  Like we we were at the track drifting or I wasn't drifting.
• 1:11:03
  I was filming because I didn't have a car at the time.
• 1:11:05
  Yeah. And Chris was like, yo, you
• 1:11:08
  fish. And I'm like, yeah, I do, And
• 1:11:10
  then like the next day. After that.
• 1:11:13
  I would fucking love if somebody asked me that.
• 1:11:16
  Didn't we try drifting fish? Baby all, all fucking, all
• 1:11:20
  summer. I'm like Chris, like for those
• 1:11:24
  of you who are watching this on the video I'm doing, I'm doing
• 1:11:26
  like a casting motion. I Me and Frankie just thought
• 1:11:30
  you were like. Yeah.
• 1:11:31
  I don't know what you're doing over there, but Chris, Chris,
• 1:11:33
  Tickle in the nuts. I tickle in the nuts, yeah.
• 1:11:35
  That's exactly what I was doing, no, But I I've been trying to
• 1:11:37
  get Chris to. Like we we couldn't, we couldn't
• 1:11:40
  coordinate it. To go fishing, Yeah, yo, fishing
• 1:11:43
  is the best thing. I don't know, man.
• 1:11:44
  You need a license for that shit.
• 1:11:45
  So I'm out. What?
• 1:11:47
  Bro. Don't you?
• 1:11:47
  Don't you need a license? For freshwater.
• 1:11:49
  Yeah, I don't, says the guy. That doesn't St.
• 1:11:51
  Drift. Says the guy that I don't even
• 1:11:53
  have a motorcycle license, so me neither.
• 1:11:56
  I'm not going to get a fishing license anytime soon.
• 1:11:58
  Yo, I don't. I hate to say this, but you
• 1:12:00
  don't need a fishing license if you're in a boat and you're
• 1:12:02
  throwing the fish back in the water.
• 1:12:04
  I'm not going fishing. I have a boat.
• 1:12:07
  I'm. Throwing them back.
• 1:12:08
  I'm eating that thing. I'm allergic to all that shit.
• 1:12:11
  I just like the I like the. I like what it stands for.
• 1:12:14
  All right. I need to ask you some questions
• 1:12:15
  cuz we're running. Ask me.
• 1:12:17
  We're, we're we've been here for a night.
• 1:12:18
  Sorry for boring you guys. But when did you start Youtubing
• 1:12:23
  and was it a natural thing or were you like, I'm going to
• 1:12:26
  start to do YouTube and I think it's gonna, I think you can
• 1:12:29
  relate to this. Well, that's why I'm asking.
• 1:12:31
  So I started YouTube because I needed like Flipsco was becoming
• 1:12:36
  a business way too fast where it needed to be pushed to another
• 1:12:43
  like on demand situation. So print on demand style, which
• 1:12:49
  kind of that's a whole other story where should have just
• 1:12:52
  stuck to the process of doing it myself and going through
• 1:12:54
  printers and doing it my way instead of going print on demand
• 1:12:58
  because like you really. Yeah.
• 1:13:00
  Yeah, you really have like no control from that.
• 1:13:02
  Like yeah, you were in control because I wanted just to focus
• 1:13:05
  on branding and I didn't want to focus more on the the sales and
• 1:13:09
  the prints and the shit. Yeah.
• 1:13:11
  So. So you're looking for another
• 1:13:13
  way to make money. So it wasn't to maximize
• 1:13:15
  profits, it was actually to minimize, like minimize
• 1:13:19
  mistakes. So I thought going that route
• 1:13:22
  and outsourcing would be better for them to ship and to take
• 1:13:25
  care of all this stuff. And then it turned into
• 1:13:28
  outsource. Companies would take so many
• 1:13:31
  brands that they didn't know. It's almost kind of like if
• 1:13:34
  faction had like 15 other subdomains.
• 1:13:37
  It's hard. To actually ship things for you
• 1:13:39
  too? Yeah, they would.
• 1:13:40
  I never even looked into this. They would print it and they
• 1:13:42
  would ship it and they would do all this stuff, but then you
• 1:13:45
  also become disconnected from the brand, definitely heavily.
• 1:13:48
  To the point where you're like oh shit, I don't you know, So it
• 1:13:52
  was kind of like a two different style brand kind of thing.
• 1:13:54
  But what happened was everybody stopped following brands and
• 1:13:59
  started following Youtubers and Raffles.
• 1:14:03
  So I. Totally.
• 1:14:05
  Remember when the raffle thing became like raffles?
• 1:14:07
  Things are still a thing, bro. Like huge.
• 1:14:09
  So like I met, I met like Ricer Miata.
• 1:14:14
  Tommy Grant was actually like heavily into that cuz I knew
• 1:14:18
  Grant from like the Volkswagen scene.
• 1:14:21
  We literally met like, all these people just for your Really.
• 1:14:25
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:14:25
  So Grant was Matt Wallen's boy. Remember Matt Wallen?
• 1:14:28
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:14:29
  So that whole situation I remember Grant telling me
• 1:14:32
  straight up he was like, yo you need to start YouTube because if
• 1:14:35
  you just continue. Which is funny, because Grant
• 1:14:37
  doesn't have a YouTube. Yeah, but he's so he's just
• 1:14:39
  surrounded. But why?
• 1:14:40
  Is he? Yeah, because he's a character
• 1:14:41
  in everybody else's YouTube. When I met him, why I was like.
• 1:14:44
  Oh yeah, dude, like you. Yeah, you're like big on
• 1:14:47
  YouTube. And he's like, I don't even have
• 1:14:48
  an account. I'm like.
• 1:14:49
  Wow, I'm in an idiot. But all right.
• 1:14:51
  But but Grant can sit here. Like Grant could sit here and we
• 1:14:54
  could talk about drifting. Just like how you and I talk
• 1:14:56
  about drifting. It's like perfect.
• 1:14:57
  No, he's awesome. Yeah, I like how he's like that
• 1:14:59
  because he won't start a YouTube channel just because people tell
• 1:15:04
  him to do. It like, don't get me wrong, he
• 1:15:07
  would kill it. He should, though.
• 1:15:05
  He should. Yeah.
• 1:15:09
  I think again it's like another thing like, you know, I would.
• 1:15:12
  Editing. Editing is what?
• 1:15:14
  Yeah. And I'm like, that sucks.
• 1:15:15
  He's, he's staying true to himself.
• 1:15:17
  Simple as that, you know? Yeah.
• 1:15:19
  So, but I feel like Phillips Co had to go into that route or we
• 1:15:23
  were kind of. So you wanted to rotate the
• 1:15:25
  business a little. I didn't want to be a YouTuber.
• 1:15:27
  Dude. You didn't want to be?
• 1:15:28
  Hell, no. Like, you knew there was
• 1:15:31
  potential. There.
• 1:15:32
  No, I didn't know anything. And like, it just happened to be
• 1:15:35
  that it was fun filming and editing with my friends because
• 1:15:38
  it was unknown. Did you have to learn how to do
• 1:15:41
  all that, or did you know how to edit?
• 1:15:43
  I had. I had.
• 1:15:44
  I knew how to do it. Like I took photos of your car
• 1:15:46
  and I did videos of your car before I even started drifting.
• 1:15:51
  Really. Yeah.
• 1:15:52
  You don't remember those two photos of you and Hoyts?
• 1:15:55
  What is so funny about I? Don't remember anything.
• 1:15:57
  My brain is so gone. I like we we were a Tumblr.
• 1:16:00
  Like wait. Wait.
• 1:16:01
  Yeah, no, it's not the photo Tumblr.
• 1:16:03
  It's the one that's literally you 2 stacked together like
• 1:16:06
  this. You had no, your cars weren't
• 1:16:09
  painted. You had the white faction
• 1:16:11
  banners on the front. Yeah.
• 1:16:12
  And you were parked together in the in the, oh English town
• 1:16:15
  parking lot. Yeah.
• 1:16:16
  Remember that? That was that long ago.
• 1:16:17
  Yeah, dude, that was long ago. You had your car, then I was
• 1:16:22
  building my car, then I sold the S14 and I was building my S13.
• 1:16:27
  Yeah, that sounds about right. So it just it just came down to
• 1:16:30
  the. So you kinda knew how to do
• 1:16:31
  edits. Kind of.
• 1:16:32
  You had to learn, yeah. You kinda had to learn, you
• 1:16:34
  know. I think, I think.
• 1:16:37
  There was a point where if you wanted to stay in the game at
• 1:16:40
  that time, you had that. You had to to stay relevant.
• 1:16:43
  Yeah well that was the only way that you can cuz back in the day
• 1:16:46
  you can do a like a brand and people would.
• 1:16:49
  The mystery was so common like crooks and castle who owns it?
• 1:16:55
  I don't know this Filipino guy named Jerry.
• 1:16:58
  I can't pronounce his last name, but.
• 1:17:00
  People like to see a face. Yeah, so now YouTube gives you
• 1:17:04
  that face, but you also lose your life.
• 1:17:07
  Dude, editing takes so fucking long.
• 1:17:09
  Well, it's also too that Shout out, Malcolm.
• 1:17:11
  Yeah, shout out, Malcolm. It's also too that sometimes you
• 1:17:13
  also Are you actually filming for yourself or are you filming
• 1:17:17
  for your Subs that wanted to see the stuff that you posted years
• 1:17:21
  ago? I'm I'm totally with that
• 1:17:24
  because like it's different. When you're enjoying it, you can
• 1:17:28
  tell that person enjoys it and when you're watching it, there's
• 1:17:31
  there's this random. The guy I watch on YouTube, his
• 1:17:34
  name is Vasily Builds or something.
• 1:17:37
  It's this kid. I don't know if he's a kid to be
• 1:17:39
  honest, but it just looks like he's just having fun and he's
• 1:17:41
  just building random shit like a 2 stroke grom.
• 1:17:44
  Yeah, like, that's cool and it's not forced.
• 1:17:47
  It's not forced. Yeah, like, he's not like like,
• 1:17:51
  you know, like, comment and subscribe right away.
• 1:17:54
  Like, he's just, he's telling you and then like, you know,
• 1:17:57
  he'll plug his own merch. Yeah, he's like, you know what
• 1:18:00
  guys like? Blah blah blah blah blah like.
• 1:18:02
  I think he's got like a sponsor now, but it still has like a It
• 1:18:06
  didn't change. Yeah, like it's the same thing.
• 1:18:08
  Well, that's the thing. You guys got something good
• 1:18:10
  going on right now because it's like, yeah, it's business, but
• 1:18:13
  then when you're working on your own stuff and then you're going
• 1:18:15
  to a drift event, you're enjoying it as a whole, but it's
• 1:18:18
  just on documented. Yeah, that's all.
• 1:18:20
  It's still kind of annoying, but you know, we make it work.
• 1:18:24
  I wanna the shop stuff isn't annoying.
• 1:18:26
  It's the going out and being like we have to film this.
• 1:18:30
  That part I don't because, well, at the end of the day, it's also
• 1:18:33
  two it's the new norm. Let's be real.
• 1:18:36
  Yeah. You know, like if we didn't have
• 1:18:38
  Malcolm. We wouldn't have a YouTube right
• 1:18:40
  now either, just for the record. Well, Malcolm, shout out,
• 1:18:42
  Malcolm. I wouldn't be doing any of that.
• 1:18:44
  I love you, Malcolm. Damn, this shit was loud in my
• 1:18:47
  image. Yeah, I wouldn't be doing any of
• 1:18:51
  that. But now that we have him, I'm
• 1:18:52
  like, OK, well, I guess we have to.
• 1:18:53
  Do this so well. Wait till you start drifting
• 1:18:54
  again. How long has it been?
• 1:18:56
  Seven years. Chill out three years.
• 1:19:01
  I like. I've been hearing rods and.
• 1:19:03
  The engines together. Where?
• 1:19:06
  It's on a. Where is the motor?
• 1:19:08
  They're. In the warehouse, They're in the
• 1:19:12
  warehouse. Where's our motors?
• 1:19:15
  Dead, I think. I think the good thing about or,
• 1:19:19
  it is a task, right? And it's another thing that you
• 1:19:22
  got to put on your list. But whenever we do it, or
• 1:19:26
  whenever you're filming it for like, the good of your own, like
• 1:19:29
  you're just like. Fuck it.
• 1:19:31
  We'll just film ourselves. Yeah.
• 1:19:33
  And it's and it's natural. It doesn't feel like like like,
• 1:19:37
  you know, I got, I got to follow this, this and this.
• 1:19:39
  We got to get that, but it sucks when you have a DD.
• 1:19:41
  It sucks because that's me. I'm like, I'm like Frankie, yo,
• 1:19:45
  are we going to talk about, you know how many times, you know
• 1:19:47
  how many times I've I've been like this is going to be so
• 1:19:50
  sick. I'm going to tan it with
• 1:19:51
  Frankie, but you know, and his fucking like unglorified S13.
• 1:19:56
  And then I like, like I got to film it.
• 1:19:59
  The fucking GoPro is like still in the bag and like we fucking
• 1:20:04
  we fucking go out there and and somehow, someway Frankie blows
• 1:20:08
  his front bumper off and he's just done for the day.
• 1:20:10
  Yeah, that we almost got into a car accident there.
• 1:20:12
  We did not, dude. I feel like we did.
• 1:20:14
  I was on the bank. I got.
• 1:20:15
  I dove. On the.
• 1:20:17
  I was there that day and I was like.
• 1:20:19
  Oh. That was my first a group day,
• 1:20:21
  dude. I dove in there cuz I was like
• 1:20:22
  this guy's coming behind me and he's probably hauling out I.
• 1:20:26
  Loud. I don't remember.
• 1:20:29
  I just remember like, I need to get the fuck out.
• 1:20:30
  Of there. I had the ISR pipes, bro.
• 1:20:32
  It was like a fucking whistle tip.
• 1:20:33
  I gave you. Motor mounts I think for that.
• 1:20:36
  Parade up. Me and you.
• 1:20:37
  Wait, what? We gave you motor mounts for
• 1:20:39
  that car. That's.
• 1:20:40
  So weird. Yes.
• 1:20:41
  Yes, you did for that. Because I started my car and I
• 1:20:43
  was wondering what was rattling. It was the fucking motor My
• 1:20:47
  whole ass had you. Yeah, I had the motor mount on
• 1:20:49
  the right side. It was gone.
• 1:20:51
  Yeah, I remember seeing your Instagram story like who's got
• 1:20:54
  stock S13? Yeah, motor mounts.
• 1:20:57
  I was like, I mean, I got them if you really want them, bro.
• 1:21:00
  They weren't my car. You said those are mine.
• 1:21:01
  They work with They work with A Jayz.
• 1:21:03
  I mean, it worked that day and I sold the car with them on and.
• 1:21:08
  They they worked. That's interesting.
• 1:21:09
  Well, it I also had the the drift motions 1J to yeah.
• 1:21:15
  Because if if you had the solid amount onto the S13 subframe, it
• 1:21:18
  was just like. Too much?
• 1:21:20
  Yeah. I think I remember you saying
• 1:21:21
  that to me. And I was like, the fuck this
• 1:21:23
  guy's weird as. Hell bro, when he said yeah to
• 1:21:25
  tandem with me, I was like, of course I said yes.
• 1:21:29
  We had nobody tend with and I had nobody tend with.
• 1:21:31
  No. We were both loners.
• 1:21:33
  Of course I wanted to drift with you.
• 1:21:34
  You did not even know who I was. Yes, I did.
• 1:21:37
  Bold by that point I-1. 100% did you?
• 1:21:40
  He literally said he's got more to lose.
• 1:21:41
  That S15 headlight right there. I hate that thing so much.
• 1:21:45
  I'm a break. Check the shit out of him on
• 1:21:47
  XDC. I should have you.
• 1:21:49
  Fuck. Damn it.
• 1:21:51
  No, you were crying about your front bumper and I felt bad.
• 1:21:53
  Oh, it was just got it. I was mad.
• 1:21:55
  Dude, you were fucking pissed that day and that.
• 1:21:57
  And honestly, honestly, that set the tone for me.
• 1:22:00
  I was like, don't fuck with that guy.
• 1:22:02
  Jesus. Was that?
• 1:22:03
  Yeah, we got. When he was following me, it
• 1:22:05
  like I honestly thought we were going to fucking crash.
• 1:22:08
  Like 10 times I've tried to tell people that but.
• 1:22:11
  It was fun, dude. Like it was the as I see is no
• 1:22:14
  joke. That shit is scary on on videos.
• 1:22:18
  They lay out Tan Club loose by the way.
• 1:22:20
  You had to tandem like they weren't you were holding up the
• 1:22:24
  line if you were running singles and I remember looking at him
• 1:22:26
  I'm like and he was like I was like we're fucking today bro.
• 1:22:31
  Like it's going for it. And then he, dude, I told you
• 1:22:35
  straight up, I said, yo, first king, second king, get on the
• 1:22:39
  gas. This Dick head right from the
• 1:22:41
  strip. Like, right from the rip of
• 1:22:43
  grid. You're like, I'm like, dude,
• 1:22:46
  what are you doing? I'm probably running away from
• 1:22:48
  you. You were And then you crashed.
• 1:22:50
  Yeah, dude, I I don't know. It's bad.
• 1:22:54
  But. Yeah, we didn't follow the
• 1:22:57
  notebook and I like it. We.
• 1:22:59
  Didn't have to follow the notebook.
• 1:23:00
  What's the What's the last thing you got on there?
• 1:23:03
  All right. Here are the last couple things.
• 1:23:05
  One. Yeah, 1.
• 1:23:08
  Congratulations. You have a beautiful family.
• 1:23:10
  I totally forget to congratulate you on that.
• 1:23:12
  Why don't we? Out the button get.
• 1:23:16
  Yeah. I got a little filler Rican baby

• 1:23:32
  real quick? Yeah, yeah.
• 1:23:36
  Yes, don't ever do that again. But.
• 1:23:41
  Throw some color, man. Say that.
• 1:23:42
  Bitch. What family you haven't really
• 1:23:44
  been? I feel like I haven't seen you
• 1:23:45
  drifting in a while. I quit on the LZ event.
• 1:23:48
  Oh, you did? Yeah.
• 1:23:49
  So the vet is. The vet goes to Cars and coffee
• 1:23:52
  and I get, I get a black coffee and I just, I just.
• 1:23:57
  I just sit there and watch all the Corvette owners rock the
• 1:24:01
  same. Are you selling time?
• 1:24:05
  Yeah, yeah, Cars for sale. People buy it.
• 1:24:08
  Only reason why is because I just feel that you need to.
• 1:24:13
  It's perfect. It's perfect like that vet
• 1:24:16
  community and you need to drive it before I sell it.
• 1:24:18
  But like the vet is just boring. It's like it's comes down to it
• 1:24:22
  that I love pieces of shit. Yeah, you need to ask 13, yeah.
• 1:24:26
  I need something that I'm under the car, working on it,
• 1:24:29
  wrenching it and being one with it.
• 1:24:30
  Yeah, comparing. Your life under the garage, you.
• 1:24:33
  Sit on grid, bro on sit on grid. A group with A/C blasting
• 1:24:38
  blasting taken back Sunday and just it's just you just don't,
• 1:24:44
  you know it's sick like and then but that you literally start
• 1:24:47
  your run and it's over. And that's like how life feels.
• 1:24:50
  You just feel. Bro, because it's so easy.
• 1:24:53
  It's it's easy. Dude, like no matter what
• 1:24:56
  tandeming wise like with the S13 you can voucher it.
• 1:25:00
  You need to keep boost up and you need to stay in drift and
• 1:25:04
  you never get off the gas like you got to or fluctuate the
• 1:25:08
  throttle and yeah feather the gas pedal and then but with the
• 1:25:12
  vet it's just like. Yeah, it seems it seems a little
• 1:25:19
  boring. It's.
• 1:25:19
  Fun it's It's fun and boring at the same time.
• 1:25:22
  But when you're tandeming with your friends that like Chris
• 1:25:24
  Knapp has an IS300 but he has like a balls of steel build of a
• 1:25:28
  Jayz. But like when you're tandeming
• 1:25:30
  with the guys that you normally tandem with, you're either
• 1:25:34
  stupid aggressive and it changes your whole driving style or
• 1:25:39
  you're like off the track flying off because you have too much
• 1:25:42
  grip. So you wouldn't work for it, is
• 1:25:44
  that what you're saying? You don't have to work for it
• 1:25:46
  necessarily, but I think you have to back off a little bit
• 1:25:49
  because it's such a grippy, aggressive style type of driving
• 1:25:54
  because all it wants to do is grip up and straightened out.
• 1:25:57
  So Jake Parrish says he wants the Corvette.
• 1:26:01
  Jake Parrish drove the Corvette first day that was done.
• 1:26:05
  So I said, Tell me Jake. Tell him to give me his car.

• 1:26:34
  Yeah, they had me giddy to see like an Sr. though, on that,
• 1:26:38

  they had the engine in the back of their I think it was an
• 1:26:52

• 1:28:00
  Pick. It up this is.
• 1:28:02
  Do you think in the future you will be making a comeback?
• 1:28:06
  I'm ready for. It we never left?
• 1:28:10
  No, technically you kinda do. You're still posting YouTube
• 1:28:13
  videos? Yeah, we're still posting
• 1:28:14
  YouTube videos, but but now they're fishing.
• 1:28:16
  Yeah, well, see, here's the thing.
• 1:28:18
  I feel like, OK, if we do make a comeback, it's gonna be what I
• 1:28:25
  wanna do now. And I I don't want to be
• 1:28:27
  self-centered or or anything like that, but I want to do the
• 1:28:29
  things that I enjoy. Yeah, instead of trying to force
• 1:28:32
  what I was trying. To make the brand into or.
• 1:28:35
  Something, yeah, because like I didn't like at the time.
• 1:28:38
  I felt like I had to be you know I love Randy to death, but like
• 1:28:41
  I can't. I can't be eliminate and I can
• 1:28:44
  be legends media and I can't be TJ Hunt.
• 1:28:47
  But what I can be is true to myself and yeah, maybe the
• 1:28:51
  contents all over the place, but at the end of the day.
• 1:28:55
  At least you know that I put like, like my heart and soul
• 1:28:58
  into it and then maybe you adapt to it.
• 1:29:01
  Because I I never started fishing unless I I would rather,
• 1:29:04
  I'd rather watch a YouTube channel where the person does
• 1:29:07
  what? Like, so you're into fishing,
• 1:29:09
  you're into cars, you know? And then that's what you're
• 1:29:11
  going to get when you watch that.
• 1:29:12
  I because it's just because, like, I feel like, and this is
• 1:29:15
  what everybody like, when you ride your motorcycle, it's
• 1:29:18
  calming for you. It's relaxing, yeah.
• 1:29:20
  That's you getting old. So, like, when you get old, oh.
• 1:29:24
  Boy. When you get old, like you want
• 1:29:26
  to relax a little bit more because that aggressive, that
• 1:29:28
  aggression and that like full commitment of adrenaline, that's
• 1:29:33
  the escape. Yeah, but dude, you can only do
• 1:29:36
  it for so long for you to come back to find the love to do it
• 1:29:39
  more. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know what
• 1:29:40
  you're saying. That shit just went sideways and
• 1:29:43
  what boys drifted. I thought the last one was
• 1:29:47
  actually the boat. I was going to bring up the
• 1:29:48
  boat. The boat?
• 1:29:49
  What? You bought a boat.
• 1:29:50
  Yeah, beautiful, beautiful boat. Fishing boat?
• 1:29:53
  That was another $1500 deal right there.
• 1:29:56
  Was it? Yeah, what?
• 1:29:57
  Kind of out put the motor. On there.
• 1:29:59
  I got a 90 horsepower. On the little that, on that
• 1:30:02
  little thing. Bro, that little thing fucks.
• 1:30:06
  Yo, Chris, one day. Yo, I'll take you on that boat
• 1:30:08
  and I I promise you you're gonna love that.
• 1:30:11
  You drift Because on the water, bro.
• 1:30:13
  It gets sketched, dude. Love it.
• 1:30:15
  Let's go. I'm down.
• 1:30:17
  Like getting getting on plane is like launching off of.
• 1:30:21
  Grid to try and keep up with the tandem pack.
• 1:30:24
  Because the way can. Fuck you up.
• 1:30:25
  No, you just you got to go fast, you know.
• 1:30:28
  And when the time you get on to to plane, there's a fucking turn
• 1:30:33
  there. So if you're not on the gas and
• 1:30:34
  giving it more gas and not drift in the boat into the turn,
• 1:30:38
  you're going into the woods, my boy.
• 1:30:39
  I've been into some. I've been in some sketchy boat
• 1:30:41
  situations. I played with jet skis more, not
• 1:30:44
  really. Boats sounds even more sketchy.
• 1:30:46
  I almost We sunk. We almost sunk that thing.
• 1:30:48
  It was in the fucking water. Jet skis are like quads.
• 1:30:51
  Sorry, Frankie loves it. No, they they seem pretty hard,
• 1:30:54
  though they're. Pretty fucking yeah.
• 1:30:57
  Maybe we should just quit drifting and just fucking.
• 1:30:59
  We kind of already did jet skiers.
• 1:31:01
  We kind of did already. Drifting four years ago.
• 1:31:03
  I should have quit when you quit.
• 1:31:05
  I mean, I should have just put my motor here on a fucking
• 1:31:07
  stand. And then wore a You kind of did
• 1:31:10
  because you got rid of the S13. So fuck man, I'm never going to
• 1:31:14
  live this shit down. Yeah, he brought me on the
• 1:31:15
  podcast so I could have rip me up a house.
• 1:31:17
  I was told I'm not ripping. You did that S13 dude.
• 1:31:20
  Not as much as the Corvette. Listen.
• 1:31:25
  You got that thing wrapped down the street from me that that
• 1:31:28
  that shop you were at I think is.
• 1:31:29
  Dickhead And you never hit me out.
• 1:31:31
  I know I didn't. I don't know why I.
• 1:31:32
  Never I posted like. Fucking 12 videos.
• 1:31:37
  Carl's like, yeah, he's down the street like, yeah.
• 1:31:40
  So are we gonna see videos of you raising your kid?
• 1:31:44
  Cuz I want to see some like I don't know, learning some
• 1:31:46
  wholesome. I don't know.
• 1:31:50
  Is that YouTube? YouTube's different now, like,
• 1:31:52
  so I'm moving to Florida. There it is.
• 1:31:56
  There it is. I wanted to ask, but I don't
• 1:31:57
  even know if this is a man a thing.
• 1:32:00
  Yeah, call me Justin, LC. What drugs are you gonna do
• 1:32:02
  first? So moving, moving there.
• 1:32:06
  Like cuz everybody needs to grow up, get a house and do all that
• 1:32:08
  shit. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:32:09
  Now that I have a kid, like different life perspective and
• 1:32:11
  whatnot, but I still want him to get into drifting and do all
• 1:32:14
  that shit. So my father started me on dirt
• 1:32:16
  bikes. I want to start my kid off on
• 1:32:17
  BMX bikes. Like the There's like a track
• 1:32:19
  right down the street from my house and the like.
• 1:32:21
  A pump track. Like like an actual BMX racing
• 1:32:25
  track. Yeah.
• 1:32:25
  And then there's a pump track for like 2 to 4 year olds.
• 1:32:29
  So maybe I'll follow up with that because I'm going to have
• 1:32:31
  nothing to do. I'm going to be his cheerleader,
• 1:32:33
  so I might as well just film them.
• 1:32:34
  Yeah, what if? What if he doesn't?
• 1:32:36
  What if he doesn't want to? Then.
• 1:32:37
  If you'll support, I'm sure you'll support him, no?
• 1:32:39
  Bro, if he wants to play the violin.
• 1:32:41
  Dude. Nice.
• 1:32:42
  That's a YouTube video too. I mean, we're good.
• 1:32:44
  That's nice. Cuz I feel like that's what our
• 1:32:46
  channel, cuz the BM channel, yeah, it wasn't really us for
• 1:32:50
  getting like views, it's just for us to look back on, yeah.
• 1:32:53
  That's my favorite thing about it is that I'll watch it and I'm
• 1:32:56
  like, yeah, real ugly job you did there, Carl.
• 1:33:00
  Fucking damn it. Yeah, but say like you get to
• 1:33:03
  enjoy the things because it's just like even though the the
• 1:33:05
  viewer doesn't really understand what the fuck is going on, they
• 1:33:09
  still like can relate in a way that.
• 1:33:12
  It's hard to do that. It's hard to be relatable on
• 1:33:14
  YouTube. But yeah, when you're actually
• 1:33:16
  enjoying it and laughing and loving it, it makes it easier.
• 1:33:19
  So like the BM channel, like, I love watching your shit because
• 1:33:22
  I know genuinely that's who you are.
• 1:33:24
  And if I didn't know who you are, I still would feel the same
• 1:33:27
  way. Like, I'm such a big fan.
• 1:33:29
  And then talking to you guys right now and talking to this
• 1:33:31
  Bovino guy dude, this Bovino guy and the vet master over there
• 1:33:40
  First off. Out of anybody in this room,
• 1:33:41
  Malcolm loves the vet. Yeah, he probably does like it
• 1:33:43
  the most you do. It's.
• 1:33:45
  Just kind of cool. You'll sit in the driver's seat
• 1:33:47
  with your Budweiser and your mullet hanging out, and you're
• 1:33:49
  gonna fucking. I wanna go.
• 1:33:58
  But we're gonna probably kind of get on the tail end of wrapping
• 1:34:02
  this up, cuz that's all those. Are all my questions.
• 1:34:04
  Do we have any questions in the chat?
• 1:34:06
  Anything like that? We don't have them on Instagram.
• 1:34:08
  In the chat, What do we got? Let's wrap it over here.
• 1:34:12
  Scroll up, there's one I wanted to see.
• 1:34:14
  No questions. We talked about.
• 1:34:16
  I'm just here so I don't get fine.
• 1:34:18
  Cereal cookie if you heard that one.
• 1:34:20
  Yeah, guys, This is why Justin's on cuz he's moving to Florida
• 1:34:22
  soon so we had to. We had to get him on court.
• 1:34:23
  I'm gonna be a big sad, but I am happy for.
• 1:34:25
  You they felt, yeah, they felt bad.
• 1:34:26
  He also lives down the street. Yeah, I really do.
• 1:34:28
  Big moves? What?
• 1:34:30
  He does. Literally.
• 1:34:32
  My uncle lives next to your dad, your parents, or your dad's
• 1:34:35
  house. Really.
• 1:34:36
  Yeah, so is your dad keeping all the cars?
• 1:34:37
  Block over. So my supers are gonna stay
• 1:34:40
  there. FD.
• 1:34:43
  My Supras dude, he's gonna bring that car here for service.
• 1:34:47
  That's what he's got the. Supra Yeah, it's coming here.
• 1:34:50
  I'll say I'm gonna take the power.
• 1:34:51
  Plant the GTR actually is gonna come here for everything because
• 1:34:54
  there's a big vacuum leak, so oh, good luck with that.
• 1:34:57
  Somebody said Chris looks excited.
• 1:34:59
  I just put in my resignation. So Roberto said what color will
• 1:35:02
  the S14 be or or not? What was S?
• 1:35:06
  What the fuck, Supra? What color?
• 1:35:08
  Oh yeah, you've removed. It was red, right?
• 1:35:10
  So I never. Really talked about it, but it's
• 1:35:12
  either gonna be OEM red, which is kind of boring.
• 1:35:16
  I know, I know, but. And there's a lot of red supers
• 1:35:18
  out there, but I promise you it'll be.
• 1:35:21
  We'll find a way to flips code out.
• 1:35:23
  I like the red. And then there was midnight
• 1:35:25
  purple. There was talks of not like a
• 1:35:29
  yellow, like it wasn't a yellow like that, but it it's.
• 1:35:35
  Like let's say whatever color it's going to have, it'll have
• 1:35:38
  like some type of bass boat style no to.
• 1:35:42
  It that's me. Oh no.
• 1:35:44
  Why the fuck are you hating already?
• 1:35:46
  Did you say Bass Pro Shops? No, no, no.
• 1:35:48
  No bass boat. No, like a bass boat.
• 1:35:50
  Like a bass flake style. With it I need.
• 1:35:53
  I need to. See it like my truck has like a
• 1:35:55
  bass blue flake on it. And you won't know but it's
• 1:35:59
  black. But when the sun hits it, it
• 1:36:01
  flares up a little bit more and it kind of changes the color.
• 1:36:03
  I'm not into the color shifts area, but no matter what it's
• 1:36:05
  gonna be loud. Not.
• 1:36:07
  Yeah. It's gonna be louder than Nardo.
• 1:36:09
  I I like Nardo for like the last three years.
• 1:36:11
  Yeah, that's a quiet color. Bro, it fucked.
• 1:36:14
  That color was sick. Now the colors that colors.
• 1:36:16
  I never had to wash it. Is the color.
• 1:36:19
  I never had the car red underneath.
• 1:36:20
  Yeah, the cars red. I tried to keep it pristine for
• 1:36:23
  when I could afford paint. That's the thing dude.
• 1:36:27
  Don't buy fucking cars that like you think is cool because then
• 1:36:30
  you find out like you can't afford it.
• 1:36:33
  Like like I can't afford OEM paint cuz it's just hard to
• 1:36:36
  find. Well, finding someone to paint
• 1:36:38
  it, that's not the right. Way, yeah.
• 1:36:40
  And you know how many gas cap covers I went through?
• 1:36:44
  Oh Jesus, yeah, cuz it doesn't match, yeah.
• 1:36:46
  Yeah, so that and then I don't know, they say just buy a super,
• 1:36:51
  they say but. Realistically, I don't know who
• 1:36:53
  the. Fuck.
• 1:36:58
  Said but. But yeah, I mean, maybe we'll
• 1:37:00
  just fucking make that the drift car.
• 1:37:02
  Your dad needs to bring dad that.
• 1:37:03
  Would be cool. Hey.
