#90 - Will Ortega of Club Loose · After-Hours with Faction! Motorsports

0:00
Welcome back to another episode of the After Hours podcast.
0:03
On today's episode we have Willie Ortega from Club Loose.
0:07
Willie's been drifting at Club Loose and working since I guess
0:12
the inception pretty much 2005 I think we figured out on this
0:15
podcast. Willie also makes food for the
0:18
workers and anyone who's helping out the track.
0:21
So it's, you know, he's, he's an integral part of the community I
0:25
would say. So he's got a lot of stories, a
0:28
lot of history with Club Lewis and drifting in general.
0:31
So this was a really, really fun one.
0:34
We spent hours after the podcast just hanging out, at least a
0:37
hour hanging out, eating food and watching old YouTube videos.
0:42
So good time. Thanks Willie for coming out.
0:45
Hope you guys enjoy. This podcast is sponsored by
0:48
East Coast Drift School. East Coast Drift School is a
0:51
driving school focused on learning the art of drifting,
0:54
Conveniently located at the greatest drifting facility in
0:56
the United States, Raceway Park in Englishtown, NJ.
1:00
Raceway Park currently has three tracks, so you will have a few
1:03
options to choose from when setting up your lessons.
1:05
Chris Knapp, who is part of the Raceway Park family, will be
1:07
your teacher as he guides you through car setup and technique.
1:10
If you are more of a seasoned driver, E Coaster School is also
1:13
the place where you can get some extra seat time.
1:15
Chris allows private track time with no instructing as well so
1:18
that you can get some tests and tune runs in before that big
1:21
event or competition you have coming up.
1:23
Instead of spending the night dodging the police with your
1:25
boys, consider signing up with East Coast Drift School the next
1:28
time they release their schedule.
1:29
Chris releases the schedule on the 16th of every month through
1:32
Instagram. Make sure to check them out,
1:34
give them a follow and shoot over a direct message when you
1:36
are ready to set up a date. You can find them on Instagram
1:39
at East Coast Drift School. This podcast is also sponsored
1:42
by Automotive Specialty Raps. Looking to have your car ceramic
1:46
coated or wrapped? Look no further than Automotive
1:48
Specialty Wraps. ASW is a company specializing in
1:51
paint protection, film, vehicle wraps, ceramic coatings and
1:54
window tinting. Owned and operated by car
1:56
enthusiasts and Drifters, their technicians have over 10 years
1:59
of experience in the industry. They are located right off of
2:02
Route 208 in Fairlawn, New Jersey.
2:04
Other than window tinting which is something we all need at some
2:06
point, it was the ceramic coating that really caught my
2:09
attention back when they reached out to us.
2:10
This coating basically gives your cars paint extra UV
2:13
protection while also making it shine.
2:15
Wax only lasts a couple weeks at most, but ceramic coating lasts
2:19
for a year or even longer. Honestly, this stuff is like
2:22
witchcraft to me. Julian came down here one day to
2:24
explain how it works and how it compares to wax and I was pretty
2:27
stunned. They perform a full two stage
2:29
Polish to the car beforehand just to make sure it's in
2:32
perfect condition before applying the coating.
2:34
As mentioned, they also offer window tinting and paint
2:37
protection film installations. Now everyone knows what window
2:40
tinting is, but these guys offer carbon or ceramic window tinting
2:44
dependence depending on your goals with the vehicle.
2:46
Paint protection film or PPF is a great idea for those new
2:49
vehicle owners that don't want to watch their investment get
2:52
littered with rock shifts. Also keep in mind they are
2:54
capable of getting liveries designed and installed as well
2:57
as full vehicle wraps. From protecting your tow rigs
3:00
exterior to full livery installations on your drift car,
3:03
they have you covered. They also recently added mobile
3:07
washes. So the way they're doing this is
3:09
they will post a story, there'll be a link in the story on their
3:12
Instagram and you can click it where you will be able to enter
3:16
your full address and it literally tells you the services
3:20
they offer right there. It's pretty awesome.
3:23
The options are just inside the car, just outside the car,
3:26
inside and out, and then a full detail inside and out.
3:29
So you click one of those and then it'll also give you some
3:33
extras. You can choose if you got, you
3:36
know, crazy amount of pet hair in the car.
3:38
If you want, ceramic sealant, child seat cleaning, engine Bay
3:43
detail option, wow, yeah, there's all there's a bunch of
3:47
options on here. It's actually really awesome.
3:50
They just called and told us about this.
3:52
So I wanted to add this to the podcast because this is, this is
3:57
like something that I didn't know that detail places did.
4:00
But now that I see this, we're probably going to use them
4:03
ourselves. So yeah, check this out.
4:06
If you can't get to a car wash or if you know if you're at work
4:08
or something, I'm sure they'll be able to come by and help you
4:10
out. You can contact them over at
4:13
Automotive specialtywraps.com and make sure they give them a
4:16
follow on Instagram at Automotive Specialty Wraps.

Hours. Podcasts, not plural.

Yeah, we have another guest today.
5:45
We have Will Ortega, the one and only Grub master.
5:48
Ladies and gentlemen. We got a live audience out
5:51
there. Yes, at the new space it looks.
5:56
Like we might. We.
5:57
We do. I'm done.
5:59
What? No, you're good.
6:01
You're good. What?
6:02
This is fun. Frankie yelled at me for looking
6:05
at the screens, and he's over here looking at every screen
6:08
possible just now. No, you're good.
6:10
You're good. But thank you so much, Will, for
6:12
coming on. First of all, Will pulled up how
6:16
did? How did Will pull up Frankie?
6:17
I'm going to let. Frankie immediately.
6:19
We didn't. I didn't even get to see him and
6:21
there was just food being put into my face, just empanadas.
6:24
Right away I was like, yes. So we had dinner before the
6:28
podcast tonight. I can't keep you guys fed.
6:31
Dude, that I. Appreciate that that was good.
6:34
Everyone's who who ate them said they were amazing, so.
6:36
Well, conveniently what I did to have one before everyone else
6:40
did was, was that Frankie was holding them like this and the
6:44
other over there and and I was like, yo, let me take those off
6:52
your hands, I'll, I'll put them away.
6:53
He's like, you look awkward and he grabs them.
6:55
And he walks away and I grab and I grabbed them and I walked.
6:57
Away. That's the proper way to help.
6:58
Yeah. And then, yeah.
6:59
And then immediately I put them down and I come in and then I
7:01
was about to come back and I was like, wait, that was a tray of
7:06
empanadas. Yes.
7:07
And then I come back and the tray has been opened a little.
7:10
Just the time. It was like one.
7:14
Yeah, you had. Five Many is five a lot.
7:19
That is lot. OK.
7:20
I'd probably do two or three of Max.
7:21
Yeah, I did. Three.
7:22

7:48
or something. Isn't it weird, Chris, that.
7:52
You can hear it. I know you got horns.
7:54
Too. It's honestly, isn't it weird
7:56
that the older you get, you kind of don't really.
8:01
You don't really care as fuck. No, I stopped caring like five
8:05
years ago. How old are you, Will?

8:37
been there. All right.
8:38
I'm I'm happy that that you're still willing to do the podcast
8:43
and shit. Of course.
8:44
Like, I got a whole room now. This guy prioritized this room.
8:49
Like. Yeah.
8:50
I don't know how it happened. I think, well, we got, we were
8:52
shown everything and then we were like, OK, well the office
8:54

8:56
this room and we were like, well, that's the podcast studio,
9:00

9:16
live guests. OK.
9:18
Yeah. I'm not gonna lie, I'm gonna
9:20
break this to all the listeners out there.
9:22
But the next episode I have a really bad inclination that I
9:29
might say something bad, and I don't want it to be on the live
9:32
anymore. OK.
9:33
So you may or may not have to pay for it, or you might have to
9:36
tune into Spotify. Yeah, just go to If you want to
9:38
watch the video aspect, well, it'll probably still be on
9:41
YouTube, but it'll just be. Yeah, we'll think of something.
9:43
But nevertheless, this this right here has been fun.
9:49
The live thing, dude. Will, you're part of the lot.
9:51
Yeah, you're you're one of the most like active chat members.
9:54
Dude, this is what I do when you guys come on.
9:57
I set my phone on top of my toolbox and literally put it on,
10:01
put my headset on, and I'm listening to you guys once in a
10:03
while, glance over, see what you're doing.
10:04
So Frankie's just like, right here, You're all over the place.
10:09
So it's like, whatever. But yeah, so I don't know.
10:12
That's a good or bad. Thing it's not, it's amazing.
10:14
It wakes me up because I'm half asleep anyway by the by time you
10:17
guys put this up. So all right.
10:18
So no, no. It's very entertaining.
10:20
I I like the pod you got. You guys touch on a little bit
10:23
everything. I personally like so.
10:25
So you'd be working on your car and shit Well.
10:27
No, actually I'm working on postal vehicles.
10:30

10:51
you when you guys do the live, I'm like I get to see the guys
10:53

10:54
That's awesome, but I think I listen pretty much almost all
10:57
your Spotifys because you just put them on and I don't listen
10:59
to nobody else at work. I can't deal with the politics.
11:01
What's what's a hot ticket maintenance item on those

I turned when I turned 45, I went downhill.
17:10
Oh no, it was bad, dude. Like every injury I ever had as
17:14
a teenager and a kid came back and said hi to me because I I
17:19
like. I fractured my arm and my arm
17:21
started killing me out and over. Was this like an accident?
17:24
I used to do a lot of stupid things as a kid.
17:27
Define, define stupid. That's all no whatchamacallit.
17:34
Yeah, so I I used to play my my, my step dad.
17:39
He used to like soccer, so he used to force me to play soccer.
17:42
So I used to play with adults and I was like 1213.
17:45
I'm playing adults, so they beat the crap.
17:46
I don't know. Then I discovered I realized I
17:50
like football. So I started playing
17:52
neighborhood football. For now, if you're near Philly
17:55
neighborhood football, you're playing with 3040 year olds that
17:57
are going full speed into you, no matter how old you.
18:00
Are dude, Yeah. And you're playing sometime in
18:02
the street, and you're in concrete.
18:03
You fall, you get back up, but you want to look good and don't
18:07
realize that you pull your shoulder out of place, your
18:09
elbow shot. And thing is, you want to look
18:12
cool in front of these older guys.
18:13
So you're like, oh, let's go, let's go.
18:14
You know a lot of curse words and you go at it.
18:17
Then one day you sneeze and like everything, just like you going
18:21
up like this and you can't move. And it happened.
18:24
It literally. I couldn't sit down.
18:27
I couldn't stand. What?
18:29
What? What caused that?
18:31
Just between my back, my sciatica, if you ever take a
18:37
picture of my back, it's like crooked.
18:39
It's always been crooked since I was a kid.
18:41
That's like scoliosis. Yeah, they do a test on in
18:44
school. I've been going to practice
18:45
chiropractor since I was like 15, but I don't want to listen
18:48
to nobody. So of course I've been jumping,
18:50
doing stuff like dumbasses like I I was and now with the weight
18:55
that I have is not helping at all.
18:58
So every little injury that ever had, it just literally shows up.
19:02
I wake up in the morning, I wonder what's today.
19:03
Oh yeah, my, my shoulder. I can't move it or this one is
19:06
bad. Oh, remember that time?
19:08
Oh yeah, dude. It's like, it's the date pops up
19:11
and I know exactly. I know what the weather was.
19:13
Oh, it's bad. What's that at 45 that happened?
19:16
At 45, it went downhill. I'm, I'm like.
19:19
Gotta make sure I get. Everything done?
19:20
Oh, COVID. COVID did.
19:22
And when COVID happened, Oh yeah, I fell apart 2020.
19:25
COVID aged you. Yeah, it did I.
19:27
Think COVID Aged. Everybody.
19:28
I didn't get cold. That's true.
19:30
It was like, yeah, yeah, everybody was stuck at home.
19:32
You couldn't. Not me.
19:34
I was essential worker. I had to be at work.
19:36
Me too. But yeah, well, I loved.
19:37
It, yeah, we were essential. COVID COVID had motherfuckers
19:42
going backwards. Tik Toks.
19:44
Like, yeah, yeah, no. Like we were going backwards.
19:46
People were knitting, reading like normal cherry butter
19:50
yourself baking bread. Everybody got into plants for
19:54
some reason. I got AI, got a Instagram reel
19:57
the other day on how to make paper.
19:59
I was like, what the fuck are you doing?
20:02
Go to the store like I It's interesting to me how far people
20:08
will go to to learn about something which.
20:11
Is you though? That's.
20:11
Literally. You, which is the funniest.
20:14
Part. I know.
20:15
Because Carl wouldn't be the guy.
20:17
Yo, did you guys know you can actually?
20:18
Just make paper We don't. Have this guy made paper?
20:20
It was it was really interesting, like out of wood.
20:23
It is really what you think it is.
20:25
It's like if you sliced wood thin enough it would be paper.
20:28
You just wet it and like press it a bunch of times in a crazy,
20:32
obviously pretty interested, like standard procedure.
20:34
I've watched the Instagram. Reel, you might do it.
20:36
Your Insta I send these shits to the group chat, right?
20:41
He just has no fucking clue. No.
20:42
Sometimes I look at him. You definitely don't watch the
20:46
stupid ones, I feel like. Yeah.
20:49
Carl Instagram's a crazy place. How often are you on Instagram?
20:52
Will like looking at reels and stuff.
20:54
Dude, I've been honest and Vine. Vine came out and stuff like
20:57
that. Do you like Vine better or do
20:59
you like I? Love Vine?
21:00
There was more creativity in seven seconds than anything out
21:05
nowadays. In seven seconds you remember.
21:07
The whole story. Do you remember any vine?
21:09
Give me a vine that lives in your head rent free right now.
21:10
Well. The one way was like the family
21:13
with the with the. It's like the husband, the wife
21:15
and the two kids and the daughter broke a bow in New
21:18
Year's. But The thing is the funniest
21:19
thing. Every time he was talk smack
21:21
about the wife, it cuts him like he said the like, oh, you remind
21:24
me, Yeah, he's just like your mother.
21:26
And next year, you know, he's like laying down dead in a
21:28
freaking coffin so quick. And I'm like, I can relate to
21:32
that because I won't say it, but.
21:36
I know the one you're talking. About, and it's probably the
21:38
best you could do it a million times.
21:40
I still laugh at it. Do you, do you, do you got any
21:43
Vines in your head right now? Yeah.
21:44
What you see every time it gets hot out.
21:46
Whoa, whoa, whoa. It's just dude like on like this
21:49
little and he goes, oh it's a scorcher out today.
21:54
He does say. He takes his robe off and jumps
21:56
into like a mildly frozen pond. It's the middle of the winter.
22:01
Oh shit. That sounds like wild, guys.
22:03
We're going. To get time.
22:04
I'm like, damn, it's a scorcher. Out.
22:06
But you know what? Mine what?
22:07
The one that I think of immediately.
22:09
When I think of mine, I think of the guy with a guitar and you
22:13
got like 2 girls sitting on a car or whatever.
22:15
And he goes. Clean.
22:17
I love you, bitch. Yeah, but that was Vine.
22:23
That's true. That was.
22:24
That was like one of the. Malcolm.
22:27
I I saw that vine when it had like low likes and then it just
22:30
fucking took. Off Malcolm, you got any vines?
22:32
Yeah, What you got? What you got?
22:34
It's just a little girl, this little boy's present.
22:40
His little, his older sister or his little sister.
22:43
And she goes. All up in my pussy, boy.
22:48
Out. Of I knew you'd have some shit.
22:52
There's another Don't. Ask me because I don't know any
22:54
of them. There's a There's another one
22:55
that I like where it was there was this little kid who just
22:59
jumped like down 10, like 10 stairs or maybe.
23:03
Like 12 stairs. I know what you're talking
23:05
about. Flu.
23:06
And and the dad was like, yeah, don't never do that again.
23:11
And then the whole time I'm just like, damn that that kid fucking
23:16
dude. He's like a spider man
23:17
something. Like that?
23:18
Yeah. Some.
23:18
Hang timing. Dude, he cleared his staff.
23:21
I was like, that's impressive. Like genuinely, I'm hats off to
23:26
you. But now yo, on Instagram or I
23:31
feel like even Facebook goes wild with dumb, dumb stuff.
23:35
There's really crazy things that I see on those those reels or
23:40
videos nowadays. Yeah, I don't know.
23:42
I kind of agree with the seven second thing it.
23:45
Just it was more effort to make it quick, quick and funny or
23:48
quick, whatever. Yeah, it kind of gives you a
23:50
challenge too. Now it's not really a challenge.
23:53
Straight to the point. Yeah, I feel like that not.
23:56
A touch story. I'm like, I don't know why I
23:58
want to see this episode. Yeah, what about you, Frankie?
24:01
You have a mind that lives. In you all I care isn't.
24:03
That's. What I want what What is the one
24:05
that you can remember? Wasn't the guy who goes, Can I
24:07
get a? Hunya.
24:10
Yeah, we used to say that shit all the time.
24:12
What the fuck that means? But like, what was that?
24:16
It's just a hunya. He would just say.
24:18
It can I get a hunya? And then random people just
24:21
appear. And then I just started
24:22
screaming it's. Like my neighbor's kid, he's
24:24
like, he must be. Well, he's like about 7 years
24:26
old. I know where he said went and
24:27
said it. Well of course my neighbor knows
24:29
what's up and he turned around and said I'll kill you just like
24:33
that. I'm like relax, it's just a kid,
24:34
it's just a my daughter to say hey, keep on staying in front of
24:37
people. I said, well, it's a fine if he
24:38
doesn't in the house. The house, I don't care.
24:41
Wait, what? Are we talking about the?
24:44
Moan. Yeah, he.
24:45
But the kid doesn't know anything.
24:47
He just heard his friends say, it ain't always funny.
24:49
And the poor kid is like, why you're not getting screamed at
24:52
like, no, you know you don't know when you get older.
24:54
I think he knows now. He's old enough.
24:56
Do you think, OK, you're a little more seasoned than the
25:00
rest of us here, so I'm going to ask you this.
25:03
Do you think kids nowadays versus what you experience as a
25:08
child, OK. And you know, honor system, what
25:12
you did as a teenager and below or around there, you know, we're
25:17
not going to ask you about it. The cops are outside.
25:22
But versus the kids today, do you think it's, do you really
25:25
think it's that bad? Like the the tech epidemic?
25:28
I guess like so she has that crazy of an influence.
25:32
Like, I feel like when my dad was a kid, he would tell me
25:35
story. Or when my dad would tell me
25:37
stories of him as a kid where it's like, yeah, me and my
25:41
buddies would drink in the cemetery or smoke cigarettes
25:44
like here and there and like steal from here.
25:46
And I'm like not my dad's a really good guy.
25:49
But yeah, can you? I think kids nowadays, they just
25:53
like what I would think I would something I would just struggle
25:57
off. It's a huge deal for them now,
26:00
but it wasn't apparent like how you bit, you know, how you raise
26:03
them, you know, But that's on them, you know what I'm saying?
26:05
Like my girls, I teach them everything, you know, like art.
26:09
I'm doing some drywall. Help me out.
26:12
I'm doing this back with that I'm outside garden because I
26:15
love to garden. I don't know if I grow my own
26:17
Peppers, so I'm not character. We like to grow stuff that
26:20
makes. Sense.
26:21
Hector's got a garden. We didn't.
26:23
We did. Hector's got a garden.
26:26
No way. Hector.
26:27
Did not know dude, he he I don't.
26:29
Know if he grow grew last year. But yeah, he he's like me.
26:33
You just grow stuff. Yeah, we Puerto Rico, we grow
26:35
everything and. What else you growing besides
26:37
the PEPS? Well, I got to keep, you know,
26:39
keep it legit though. It's like Peppers.
26:41
And I got lemon tree. I want a lemon tree.
26:44
I want to do a bonsai lemon tree.
26:45
That's what I'm going to do next.
26:47
That was Chris. The best lemons.
26:49
You got a lemon tree. The best.
26:50
Lemons. And you never gave me one lemon.
26:52
Well, they're still growing right now.
26:55
Dude, give it. Let them cook.
26:57
Frankie, give me a lemon, OK? Thanks.
26:59
When they? When they fully grow hungry.
27:01
One. No.
27:01
But but yeah, the problem is a lot of people blame the kids and
27:06
not the kids fault. It's who'd you who raised them.
27:09
You know what I'm saying? It's like, it's like look,
27:11
perfect example. Look, heckler's kids, they're
27:12
amazing kids. You know what he's saying?
27:15
And yo-yo like yo, give him that look and they know what's up.
27:18
The thing is and look at them, they're great kids.
27:21
The funny. Thing is, is I got to Gabe is a
27:24
part of our discord. So the other night Gabe joins
27:29
in, he taps in to the to the night group.
27:31
You know what I mean? And instead of being a very
27:36
irresponsible kid, Gabe is never on the discord.
27:40
Hector, I hope you're fucking listening to this.
27:43
This is your son. He's never on the discord.
27:45
He doesn't play video games like when it's usually during school
27:48
time and then when we do. That, yeah, yeah.
27:54
And then when it is when he does get in, he's like not really on
27:57
there for very long, we'll go back to school.
27:59
He's just, he just plays for like a couple hours and leaves.
28:03
The other night we fucking laughed.
28:05
Probably the hardest we've ever had in a long time.
28:07
And I was like, yo, I've never heard Gabe laugh like that.
28:11
It was it was it was great. Were you guys told I miss you?
28:14
Huh. What?
28:14
Were you talking about? I forget.
28:16
I think we were just doing impressions of shit.
28:18
That makes sense. I don't even know.
28:20
It was dumb. Dude, I've been.
28:22
I think the world is healing itself.
28:24
Does that make sense? Yeah, yeah.
28:26
Like it's everything's getting better.
28:27
What Funny. Yeah, dude, I.
28:28
Think it's going to get better? Yeah, I think what?
28:30
Tells you what tells you that will.
28:33
I noticed a lot of people are son of struck.
28:36
You know, you struck stuff with their shoulders more we got, we
28:39
got, I think 2020 made black where it made everybody a pussy
28:44
pretty much. It's like they were scared of
28:46
everything. They were scared of each other.
28:48
They're attacking each other. You wear a mask, you don't wear
28:50
a mask, you're ticked. They're attacking each other.
28:52
And the reality is, you attack yourself with nothing.
28:56
That's. Definitely true though.
28:57
Bro people were were killing each other for for rotisserie
29:01
chicken. I mean.
29:03
Yeah, well. Rotisserie chicken.
29:06
Is good. It's good, you know, that's
29:09
worth further rotisserie. You're done, son.
29:11
Yeah. Imagine.
29:14
Imagine I'm making a Pananas later, son.
29:16
Get done pretty good. Frankie, you ever had the Costco
29:19
Rotisserie? Chicken No.
29:21
Yeah. What's what's better about it
29:24
than my ShopRite rotisserie? It's go get it, go Costco, get
29:26
it rotisserie. Can you give me?
29:27
One probably good. You got a member?
29:30
Yeah. And the lemon what You.
29:31
Want no, I just need. I just need.
29:33
I don't have a membership so. Which one of y'all is a Costco
29:37
member? Here are.
29:38
You. I'm a Yeah, You're an adult.
29:40
I'm an adult. I go to Costco and just sit down
29:41
on the sofa half the time. I think that damn.
29:46
At what? Age Can you become a Costco?
29:47
Yeah, am I kidding? Dude, I I don't know since I'm
29:50
with you Jersey back in 09. I thought about it the other
29:53
day. I was like, fuck, Costco.
29:54
Membership would be good. And then I was like, what am I
30:00
saying? Just a lot of stuff is bulk, so
30:04
like that's. Like if you have kids, yeah.
30:06
It's worth it. A lot of sense.
30:07
They're and their shrimp of cocktails.
30:08
Amazing. That's fun fact.
30:10
That's the problem is I'm I'm buy I'm going there for the
30:13
wrong reason. I'm.
30:14
I'm going there. What you're going to get?
30:15
Yeah, like don't go in there and just buy the first sofa you see.
30:18
There you go. Get what you actually.
30:20
Need I have crazy you? Pretty much buy for like a month
30:23
out. Yeah.
30:24
So that way you only go in there once a month.
30:26
Yeah. OK.
30:26
So then why are they selling playgrounds to me?
30:32
Like? And why are they?
30:34
Dude, I saw the best, the best, like, hack thing.
30:37
I've never tried it because obviously I'm not a Costco
30:39
member from what you've heard. You definitely.
30:42
Broke in there before. No, my.
30:44
Mom says work like can you just walk in or they?
30:46
Fucking no, no, they'll stop you.
30:47
No, no. You have to show them a card.
30:49
Yeah, and even if you're with a group of people, at least one of
30:51
them has to show it. But when you go pay, they go
30:54
Costco card. They had to give me a Costco
30:56
card, they scan it, then you could pay.
30:58
Nah. Nah, Nah.
30:58
You you. You.
31:00
Well, Chris, tell me, Frankie, is it pissed that he's not a
31:03
part of the secret club right now?
31:06
It's eating away at you, dude. You're going to go right over
31:09
there and go get a Costco membership.
31:10
Right. You should.
31:11
If you need supplies for here, like, might as well get it from
31:13
there. Wait.
31:14
Really. Yeah.
31:16
Like papers, Always Toilet paper, stuff like that.
31:18
Yeah, from there. You're a business.
31:20
Owner, let me tell you should get a business account you get
31:22
even cheaper. Let.
31:23
Me tell you something, there's this thing called Amazon.
31:25
Amazon works. Do you think Amazon?
31:27
Would use Amazon and Costco. You say gas money, Yeah, yeah.
31:32
And their gas prices are. Usually and time.
31:34
Time is the. Main You don't want to deal with
31:36
some caring cutting you off. You need a Costco card to get
31:39
gas there. Yeah, yeah.
31:41
You need a car. I'll never.
31:42
I'll never guess them. The lines at that gas station
31:45
are atrocious. Fuck that.
31:47
Dude, they they they'll stab each other, get gas, say, just
31:50
save two cents and I'm seriously do like when.
31:51
I yeah, it's. Not then.
31:53
I'm the guy next in line like shit.
31:54
Now I got to move over to that line.
31:57
Yeah. I'm not going to lie.
31:58
I basically never look at gas prices.
32:02
Is that a weird thing, Rich? No, I'm not.
32:05
I swear to God. Ever since I was young, like
32:07
getting my like, I I was just like, it's all the same shit
32:11
really. I'm going to ask this all
32:12
around. Unless there's like some crazy
32:14
spot, you know what I mean? That's like way under.
32:17
I know the cheap ones, so I would just.
32:18
Go, I'll ask this all around because I feel like we're going
32:21
to give different answers. And this is perfect.
32:24
What was the lowest gas price you could remember?
32:29
Yeah, because hold on because I'm going to tell you mine,
32:31
Chris, I don't know if you remember.
32:33
I I remember when gas was like 195 that's.
32:37
Probably the same as mine. Yeah, something sub. 2 bucks.
32:40
Nowhere near there. Now don't tell me like 4
32:42
pennies. I'm going to.
32:43
Tell you? Don't even tell me.
32:44
It's like 1002. Listen.
32:46
I'm in freshman year of high school.
32:49
I'm like 15. I'm driving a car and I'm not
32:51
supposed to be driving. I roll up to the gas station.
32:54
I put $2.00 of gas. I drove pretty much all week.
32:58
It was a Datsun. So you know, that's wherever gas
33:00
was like $0.85 a gallon. Wow.
33:04
Well, you think I never. I never paid for gas when I was
33:06
in high school. I just, I just take people to
33:08
school, so the tacos and stuff like that.
33:14
I'm a product of a single mother.
33:16
I help my mother out. So I had to make sure I gave my
33:18
own money and whatchamacallit. Yeah, like $0.85 a gallon back
33:23
in then. So it matter.
33:24
You put $2.00, you're good to go.
33:26
You got you got 2 gallons and an old Datsun.
33:28
You drive everywhere. You're in North Philly.
33:30
You drive everywhere. I I got to put like 80 to $100
33:33
in my truck in order to fill it. Up.
33:34
I done that. You see the towel?
33:36
OK, OK. But but you said that that that
33:39
$2.00 or let's say it costs you $5 to fill it, right.
33:45
How hard was it to earn that $5? For me, it wasn't.
33:50
It was easy. Yeah, because you're hustling.
33:52
Tell us about Hustle. I didn't have to see.
33:53
I didn't have to go to get a McDonald's job or anything like
33:55
that. Yeah, you got other ways.
33:57
Well yeah, easy ways. It's very pretty much I I I have
34:01
never had any shame in my life so we're pretty much.
34:03
I always hustle at work. What I used to do is I used to
34:07
collect cans. There used to be a park behind
34:09
my house called Hunting Park. It's by 10 Fan Knife and
34:13
Luzerne. And every Sunday when they had
34:16
the soccer leagues and stuff like that, everybody's drinking
34:18
beer and they're just dumping all the aluminum cans.
34:20
So I'll go over a little trolley, fill, crush them, fill
34:22
them up, go gas it, go take some money, you know, drop a couple
34:26
of the recycling places, was down the street.
34:29
That's like 1520 bucks. Wow.
34:31
And I did. And just in two hours.
34:33
And you know, back back then the minimum wage was like $4.25.
34:37
Well, yeah, not so. In less than two hours.
34:39
I made some bank for sure. I got some exercise.
34:42
I was like 8-9 ten years old doing it.
34:44
I did it all summer long, could help my mother out.
34:48
You know, I my mom had to worry about buying me clothes because
34:50
I had some cash. Then I started riding bikes.
34:53
So what I would do is I go to the better neighborhood.
34:55
So when they throw it with their bikes, I bring it back to my
34:57
neighborhood. Stripping for parts, scrap the
35:01
metal, taking the metal down. So there was always cash flow
35:04
coming in. My mom used to get 50 bucks a
35:05
week even though she didn't want to eat it.
35:07
I like to help over the rent and stuff like that.
35:09
Yes, that's that's. Old.
35:10
So that mentality was always hustle, hustle, hustle.
35:13
I do. I used to ride all over Philly
35:15
with my bike, man. Just, you know, just picking up
35:18
stuff, you know, there's money everywhere.
35:20
You just got to look for it, you know what I'm saying?
35:22
I didn't have to go. Like I said, I didn't have to go
35:23
to, I didn't have to go to McDonald's and stuff like that.
35:25
And then start American, working on the little motorcycles and go
35:30
Honda Elite scooters and stuff like that.
35:32
Hop them off my butt. Ugly looking dude they were.
35:35
Amazing. Back in the days that was those,
35:37
those were ghetto cruisers. They It's like, what is?
35:41
What was the equivalent to an Altima back then?
35:43
Because is that the? Ultima.
35:45
Because I feel like there were more motorized 2 wheel vehicles
35:48
back then that were OK with getting around, you know what I
35:51
mean? Like now people are like you
35:52
know what? That might be a little more
35:53
unsafe, but. No, no.
35:55
Back in those days, everybody had an old American car.
35:59
Yeah, you know, like AV 6, Monte Carlo and from the 70s.
36:04
So that was like the big thing back in those days, Punto Ocho.
36:08
But my name was, was Punto Ocho Puente Corolla.
36:11
That's the nickname for it. It's a Tierra.
36:12
It's a 80 through 83 Toyota Corolla.
36:16
How do you know what that is, Chris, you?
36:17
Had one that my old job. Yeah, we don't call them 1.8, we
36:21
call them Punto. Yeah.
36:24
I said Puerto Rican movie. Every Puerto Rican.
36:26
I had it. Filipino.
36:27
Korean. Hispanic.
36:28
You know what? I'm saying you're the tallest
36:30
Filipino I know. That's for. 300 years so.
36:32
Yeah. That's just Spanish.
36:34
Your last name is Spanish and my last name is.
36:37
Spanish. It's hilarious.
36:40
What's Yo, I have a question for everybody.
36:42
Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's the lowest amount of gas
36:45
you've ever bought? That $2.00 that will said half a
36:49
dollar in. I used to put.
36:52
I used to put like a dollar in half the time.
36:53
Yeah, but. That's like that's.
36:56
That's. A gallon.
36:58
OK, the least amount in the past 10 to 15 years, 1015 years.
37:02
Probably. Yeah, like like 5 bucks.
37:04
She was a full. Grown adult at that point,
37:05
that's. True.
37:06
I I literally will put like 10 bucks on the car because I don't
37:09
want to talk like pay cash to the pair of the credit.
37:13
I got 10 bucks. I put 10 bucks in.
37:14
Well, I got 5 bucks. Hey, I gave me home.
37:16
My answer is $5. Yeah, 5 bucks is about.
37:19
An hour away from home and the light was on for a good 30
37:22
minutes and I had $0.75. It works.
37:26
Yeah, the guy, the guy felt so bad.
37:28
He's like, I'm going to bump it up to a dollar.
37:29
Nice. Yo.
37:31
Say. I think gas at the time was like
37:33
250. Have 1/2 AG, half AG, Not a lot
37:38
of free things in this world. You go to five other gas
37:40
stations, you got 2 1/2 gallons. That's.
37:44
True. Do you guys remember back in the
37:46
well, you're you're a baby then I probably babysat you or
37:51
something like that back in like in the 2007 eight around there
37:55
where gas was like no, no bullshit like O5O6 gas was like
37:59
4 something a gallon. It was bad.
38:01
It was so bad. I didn't really understand the
38:04
magnitude of that until right now with.
38:06
People banking money. People were banking money,
38:09
pretty much. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
38:11
Watch The Big Short. You ever watch The Big Short?
38:13
For half. I love that movie.
38:15
I don't. It's fun, just too much you
38:20
because because for me, I have. To like, I really got to sit
38:22
down and, like, fucking pay attention to this shit.
38:24
Yeah, you can't have to pay attention to the movie, but.
38:28
I mean, it seemed like it was good, if you're into that shit.
38:31
Who is the main actor, I forget? Matthew McConaughey was in.
38:35
That movie? Yeah, McConaughey.
38:37
He killed that shit. He's a really good actor, he
38:39
impersonated. Can you can you hit hit me with?
38:41

38:42
Question I don't know should I try right now?
38:45
Yes. Do it.

He's very. Give me Wolf on Wall Street.
38:49
I don't remember him. What does he say?
38:53

39:47
screen. Wow, I gotta check into that
39:50
later. I got something.
39:51
Did not see that big little Robbie.

everyone's favorite. It's not the one that everyone
40:39
would say. What are you going to say?
40:41
I don't even know the movie because I never saw it.
40:43

41:02
No, the one. No plot, Dallas.
41:04
Buyers Club. That was good.
41:06
That was good. I actually watched.
41:07
That he was real. Good in that movie.
41:09
It's about the age of epidemic, Yeah.
41:12
And he was going to Mexico to get like vitamins and stuff like
41:15
that. Yeah, you know, helping people
41:16

41:25
He pulled it off. Man, yeah, yeah.
41:27
Haven't. That movie's really.
41:29
Good. The way that you guys are
41:30
talking about a movie right now, I feel like I haven't.
41:34
I haven't gotten that like, feeling in a while where I'm
41:36
like, I need to watch that movie.
41:37
Maybe Wolf of Wall Street might have been the last one.
41:39
Maybe, but that's. Almost like a comedy too.
41:41
What about like the other one you were just talking about?
41:44
What do you what am I talking about?
41:46
Wolf of Wall Street. Big Short.
41:49
The Big Short that was. But that's kind of a comedy too,
41:51
right? That.
41:52
Was not a comedy. It was.
41:54
About. It was about the Nobody does
41:58
like it does have funny moments in it.
42:00
Right. Yeah.
42:01
It was like a couple I. Mean There was a There was
42:03
comedic relief with Ryan Gosling, OK?
42:06
Yeah, I remember that scene. You would, because you love Ryan
42:09
Gosling. I do love Ryan Gosling I.
42:11
Think I'd say. That Malcolm look.
42:12
Malcolm Cam not in confirmation that Frankie loves Ryan Gosling,
42:18
Yeah. Like it's.
42:19
Like who doesn't? I used to not really think about
42:22
him. And then I saw Barbie and I was
42:23
like, that guy pulled that shit off.
42:25
He fucking yelled That movie. You guys watched Barbie?
42:27
What did he say? Let's spread, Let's spread
42:29
patriarchy. Oh yeah.
42:32
I mean, I saw a little bit of his thing at the I don't know
42:35
the award show name, but he like he did.
42:38
The Barbies are the. Oscars.
42:40
Are you singing? Or no, I wasn't singing.
42:42
He he had. No he was he was going all out
42:44
doing the the whole thing. I was like this is pretty
42:46
awesome. The.
42:46
Movie was a little woke, though. It was, yeah.
42:48
I mean. What is?
42:49
What is? Every movie now.
42:50
What is that? It is supposed to be?
42:52
That's the recipe nowadays. Yeah.
42:54
I mean, it is what it is, you know?
42:56
Yeah. Wait, what?
42:57
What? What is what did you mean by
42:59
woke? Like, it's like all shit that's
43:00
going on today. Like it's relevant, Yeah.
43:04
Like it's sensitive topics is. That how you become famous?
43:08
What should we talk? About right now, gay people.
43:12
All right, next topic. I mean, that's what you mean.
43:15
Like it's just the things that are like hot topics or
43:18
controversial. Like hot takes.
43:20
Like. Yeah, I don't know.
43:21
I feel like. Like, I don't know.
43:25
That is kind of how you do it. You offend somebody.
43:27
Doesn't that suck? Yeah, but they they weren't
43:29
being offensive. They were doing like the
43:30
opposite. Yeah, no, they were.
43:32
I think there was more explaining stuff, but I I dig I
43:36
dug it. I will say I didn't.
43:38
I didn't think it was that woke. Because if it was really woke, I
43:40
probably would have fucking hated that movie.
43:42
Yeah, yeah, sometimes they just paused it on a little bit too
43:44
much and it's like. The biggest?
43:46
Take It was probably just the gender equality thing.
43:48
Yeah, which is. Which was even that.
43:51
The thing is like they they it was good.
43:53
It was. It's Barbie.
43:54
Like, Barbie is ridiculous. It's just all the all the Barbie
43:58
dolls and then you got like Ken and that's it.
44:00
That's just one guy. There's one dude, like, so it's.
44:02
They really didn't have no other.
44:04
They did. They had one of the guy.
44:04
What was the guy's name? Malcolm.
44:08
You remember the guy? Oh my God.
44:09
It was like fucking it, wasn't it?
44:11
A little Michael. Cera.
44:12
Cera. Yeah.
44:14
He was. I never watched Barbie nor.
44:16
Do you know Michael? C Have an intention.
44:17
Do I know Michael Cera? No.
44:19
I fucking live under a rock. Well, he's the best.
44:21
Dude, Michael. Cera was wrong.
44:23
Yeah, so he's he was like, I forget the guy's name.
44:25
Allen. Allen.
44:27
It was Ken, right? Only Ken.
44:28
But then Allen is like, I guess a guy Barbie that they made.
44:32
For this movie. No, like they made it in the
44:35
history of Barbie, but I guess they didn't make many of them.
44:38
No, he wasn't. Power, so he's even.
44:40
Less of a relevant character, there's no.
44:44
I could. I have a younger sister.
44:47
The only reason why I feel like I know is I feel like she maybe
44:51
had a tape or a movie or something where there was like
44:56
other males aside from Ken, like like there was a there was a
45:00
black guy. There was a black one.
45:02
Yeah, so. Ken.
45:04
Oh. OK.
45:04
So they're all Ken, no matter what. 10 dolls.
45:06
OK. Yeah, then.
45:07
There was Alan. Do I know a guy named Ken?
45:11
Yeah, I do actually. Yeah.
45:13
Yeah, Kenny, that's a pretty good.
45:14
R Kenny. Yes.
45:15
Yeah, pretty. Common Kenny.
45:16
I hope you're doing well. I don't know if you'll ever
45:18
fucking hear that. But yeah, I don't know.
45:20
It was good. Just to let you know, back in
45:22
the 80s Barbies had probably the best toys out there.
45:24
The. Barbies, what do we got?
45:26
What do we got? It used to be back in Puerto
45:29
Rico, I used to be friends with a little girl next door.
45:31
We were the same age and stuff like that went to the same
45:34
kindergarten and stuff. Thing is, she had like no real
45:37
friends because she had, I think she was special needs and she
45:40
likes to wrap kids hair and stuff like that.
45:42
Of course I'm in the 80s. If you've ever seen any pictures
45:44
of me in the 80s, I had beautiful flowing hair and.
45:48
So what you got? Yeah, I got you.
45:52
I got you. I know.
45:53
I remember the summer. You're good.
45:55
It's sad. I look once in a while and let
45:57
it grow a little bit and the wind hits it.
45:59
I just get into chills and like I'll miss it.
46:01
But well, the good news is you look real good in that hat.
46:03
Yeah, that's. I don't think I could.
46:04
Think I love this hat. More perfect hat.
46:06
But yeah, no. In the 80s they had this Barbie
46:10
pool house and hit the button and mix bubbles and stuff like
46:14
that was amazing. And the only reason I was
46:15
playing with her was to play with that with her.
46:18
Yeah, she'll beat the crap, I mean, and she'll scratch me and
46:21
everything. But I didn't care.
46:23
She was cool. She was cool.
46:25
She once in a while, she just didn't know how to.
46:26
She just. Got violent.
46:29
She just got violent. I mean she just literally just
46:31
beat on me, but I was big enough that I could take it.
46:34
I'm like, alright, whatever. I was in the SO but I was
46:37
probably her only friend at that time.
46:39
But anyway, she had this cool and I mean her mom had her this
46:42
whole room decked out, had a swing.
46:44
I like This is heaven, except it was all girl toys.
46:48
But I will read my GI Joes and she'll rip the horns off.
46:51
I'm like, dude, really? So how were GI Joes back then?
46:55
Pretty good too. Yeah, that was pretty awesome.
46:57
Yeah, dude, they probably had like, crazy guns like.
47:01
Yeah, they're like murder. They're all murderers.
47:03
And like, I got his guns on it and stuff like that.
47:04
I was like, yeah, kid, play with this.
47:07
I loved it, man, you know. I had GI Joes too.
47:09
Yeah, I think I still have one buried in my front yard
47:11
somewhere. What was he, the funeral
47:14
service? Oh.
47:15
The coffee bean can. Yeah, yeah, that's kind of sick
47:19
like. A little time.
47:20
Can. No idea where it is.
47:22
What else did you put in there? Just.
47:24
Maybe like a Bitcoin? And snake eyes.
47:27
Bitcoin. Snake Eyes was the best.
47:30
I don't. I didn't.
47:31
I didn't play with GI Joes. I had probably the first thing I
47:34
could. Earliest thing that I could
47:35
remember playing with, aside from my Wiener was Jesus was
47:41
probably a Power Ranger. 0100. Percent.
47:45
Oh, the Megazord. What?
47:46
I thought I was going to say A1JZ VVZ.
47:51
I thought it was going to be ridiculous too.
47:52
But it was, he said, his Wiener. But.
47:54
Dude. Am I lying or no?
47:57
Megazord. Though I didn't.
47:58
I got that. I didn't get the original
48:00
Megazord. I got this I.
48:01
Had a lot of them. I had the like, silver one.
48:05
It was like the special edition or whatever, but no one wanted
48:08
that fucking one. I wanted the one that's red and
48:10
yellow and couldn't get it for some reason.
48:13
Wait, did we have the same thing?
48:14
Ultron? No.
48:15
No. No, no Ultron might be, might
48:17
be. Wills.
48:18
Yeah, no, Voltron was me. I we couldn't afford that.
48:21
Yeah, it was like back then was like $47.
48:24
I know it because I try to save up for it.
48:27
Yeah. And it only got past five
48:29

I did not. I don't spin them around and
49:27
something like that. Yeah, dude.

Girl and I had the the morphers too.

To watch this. I need to see this car 'cause it

51:14
No. But he's in.
51:14
Oh yeah, it could be. It could.
51:16
Be so. So that whole scene is in Japan,
51:19
except. So a lot of the fight scenes, a
51:20
lot of like the scenes where they were suited up, is all
51:23
Japan and then whatever his English was inserted.
51:27
He It was the right door that opened up.
51:29
Yeah. Oh.
51:31
Yeah. Wow.
51:32
Isn't that something? Continue.
51:35
Play it again from the beginning, Malcolm.

Yeah, the plate and the plate. No, the plate looks like it's
51:41

51:43
side. Right hand drive.
51:44
That's all. What kind of wheels are we
51:45

51:47
Why? Does he still want to?
51:49
Work down through that door panel.
51:50
Shot flips Was the was the flip necessary?
51:53
Dude, they were. Literally.
51:54
Like just every kid that buys a fresh S.
51:56
Sports team. They were like the.
51:58
Kids won't notice his right hand.
51:59
Right close up. So you can't match up the
52:00
background. Yeah, that's literally all
52:02
insert. That's that's insane.
52:04
I never knew that all. The only Power Rangers one that
52:07
I knew that had to do with drifting was the Chelsea de Nova
52:11
spoof and I I I can't remember anyone else that was in that
52:14
video, but I do remember Chelsea.
52:16
I tried looking it up on YouTube, you can't find.
52:18
It it's gone. Scott's car from Power Rangers
52:22
RPM was bad ass. That's a.
52:26
That's a works 9. Kit is it?
52:28
Yeah. You're Diego?
52:32
That's a cool car. Yeah man.
52:35
Zenke, you sat down and just watched like, what the hell is
52:39
this? I think it's crazy that that's
52:42
literally the vibe that I'm trying to get.
52:44
Literally, you're just trying to be a Power Ranger.
52:46
Yeah, like what happened to you? You can remember I can remember
52:49
this, but I forget my kids names half the time.
52:52
Seriously dude, I'm in a doctor's office and actually can
52:55
you give us their birthday and I go take the birthday.
52:57
I'm like fucking remember. Yeah.
52:59
And then you look at this every dad.
53:01
I can't even remember Carls were then.
53:02
I don't. Remember my birthday?
53:03
They got to remind me. This is my daddy right here,
53:06
Power Rangers. The first one, Mighty Morphin
53:10
Yeah, I I it's just because that was I was doing like ready to
53:14
get out of high school and I was in the high school and stuff
53:16
like that. So I can't.
53:17
I was able to watch it and enjoy it And President Mary Jo I
53:21
forgot her name it the one, the Pink Ranger was like my my girl
53:26
in school that looked unlike her.
53:27
So I was like, oh Lord. That's the only he.
53:29
Was the. Only part Ranger as I remember,
53:31
is that one Mighty Morphin pie. Yeah, I didn't ever catch up
53:33
with the other ones, Turbo or space.
53:35
What? Is that what is that?
53:36
What is that? Power Rangers, Turbo or Power
53:38
Rangers? Space.
53:38
See, I don't. I didn't know that.
53:40
I don't know what you're talking.
53:41
There's a ton of them. I was a big Power Rangers fan up
53:43
until space and then and. Then it fell off then.
53:46
They learned I had what? What other, what other things
53:49
were you do car people do back then?
53:53
Like let's say you were in a cars back then as a, as a, as a.
53:55
Power Rangers Turbo was about cars.
53:57
They drove cars. What kind of car I?
54:00
Don't know they were just no one.
54:01
Ain't just Turbo. No.
54:03
Yeah. Jeep maybe?
54:04
But like, I feel like, I feel like like playing with bikes and
54:10
like what? The fuck Scape tech decks.
54:13
Something, anything mechanical, anything like, like tangible,
54:17
where you could fuck with it. I thought about that the other
54:21
day because I was like, every time I'm put in a situation
54:24
where I have even that slightest ounce of creative freedom
54:28
allowed, I'm going to do something to it.
54:32
You know what I mean? What's up?
54:33
My mom told me when I was young I would take apart my RC cars
54:37
and put them back together. Yeah.
54:39
Me too early. Sometimes I was become a
54:40
mechanic, Yeah. Yeah.
54:42
What I what I what my brother did was that was weird was he
54:46
would, like, arrange the cars, like he would get all his
54:49
fucking Hot Wheels and just park them like in the most perfect
54:52
fashion. Yeah, yeah.
54:54
You know what's crazy is people can't even do that.
54:57
I can't. Do that.
54:59
Like today, Yeah. I've ever been into a parking
55:02
lot in Staten Island. Nobody knows what?
55:05
That that white line is, it's an option.
55:07
She's like, listen, you want to park on your option line, you're
55:09
going to park over the dude. You can't never.
55:13
If people park right in Staten Island, there would be parking.
55:17
It would be chaos. The whole place would be.
55:19
Let's do a better job. I'm just kidding.
55:23
Wait, OK, well, I always wondered, OK, because as far as
55:28
I remember, you've always been at Club Loose.
55:31
I've been you were probably one of the first people I remember
55:34
from the very first day I was at Club Blues.
55:38
When did you get into drifting? Because we know your age now.
55:42
We know what your favorite cartoon was growing up and how
55:46
to make $20 out of $1.00. I I've got to hustle, dude.
55:50
Yeah. But when did you get into
55:52
drifting? Because it's just a drifting
55:53
podcast. Oh, it is.
55:54
I know you might as well cooking one.
55:57
Allegedly, no. But what you gonna call?
55:59
It we're going to come back to. Cooking.
56:01
No. So we went to me and a couple of
56:04
friends we really tried to find. We started getting real with
56:08
drive cars and stuff like that. Like I had a Neon, a what?
56:12
I had a Dodge Neon. We got into drag racing and
56:14
before that I had a Talent TS Iowa Drive.
56:19
That's a good. Yeah.
56:20
Yeah, I got a little. Dude, I paid 200 bucks with a
56:22
blown turbo. Oh, wow.
56:24
How much? For a 91 Eagle talent, sorry, is
56:27
that Eagle talent? OK.
56:30
All way dry turbo had a blown turbo.
56:31
I paid $1100 for it, got it home, went to this junkyard,
56:36
found the turbo, put it on and all I did was exhaust and couple
56:41
of small things and that thing was wicked fast.
56:44
It had beat on this thing every day.
56:46
Clutch started slipping. Dropped it off at the shop
56:49
because I couldn't do it. I had no time.
56:51
I had to go to the shop and show the guy how to do.
56:54
The clutch. Really.
56:56
Because I I was working crazy hours.
56:58
I had to go on my break and say that's what you got to do next
57:01
to, you know, I'll go pick up the car and I see four track
57:05
marks. He was launching the car.
57:07
I was going to kill him. He was launching the car.
57:10
Yeah, and you already told us you got those anger issues.
57:12
So that's what I Angus was. Pre cooking.
57:16
Luckily, his father was like, really cool with me, and I'd say
57:20
I will, I will do something to your son.
57:22
And he said anyway, so I'll get the car back.
57:25
Turned out he had cut the hose going to the wastegate because
57:29
every Puerto Rican used to like cut and so he could get some
57:31
boost and I end up blowing the motor.
57:33
Oh my God. Wait, wait.
57:35
I'm sorry. So he just pulled the wastegate
57:38
hose? No.
57:39
He did it with a razor, but he just cut a little bit of the so
57:43
he could he gave. Him.
57:43
Some boost so you won't you won't over boost.
57:46
The thing is, I hit few over boosted and it blew the motor
57:51
and I sat there in front of my house.
57:53
I honed the block still in the car.
57:56
Yeah, it was the. With the little drill gun with.
57:59
A drill gun with gas a couple times, spark and set on fire.
58:03
I end up rebuilding a motor in front of my house.
58:06
Smoked a little bit, a beat on it for another year and.
58:10
Years. A lot.
58:11
Way a year A. Year with the shittiest
58:13
rebuilding that you're ever seeing.
58:15
Nothing balanced, nothing. And I was like I found respect
58:20
for the talent motor, but it was a six boat so they don't have
58:22
crank walk anyway. So and after that I sold it and
58:26
got into other stuff and whatnot.
58:28
But as far as getting back to drifting, because that's why
58:31
we're here for. Definitely not to just hang out.
58:34
I my mind will start about one thing.
58:37
I went to talk about plumbing, so you know I understand me.
58:40
I. Yo, I got some questions for you
58:42
bro. I I can tell you I'm just doing
58:44
drywall this morning anyway. Yo, Frankie asked Will about
58:47
your fucking question. Stop asking me.
58:50
But anyway, so I think it was O 6 Cooper.
58:54
We used to go slide around, hit a couple spots.
58:56
My I call him my brother, but he's actually my friend Richard
58:59
and we end up finding out he's my best man for my wedding and
59:03
we need to find out we're cousins years later.
59:05
Good to you guys. Never, you know.
59:07
You. Know.
59:09
He is handsome. So I said.
59:11
You know, some days when you drink a little bit too much,
59:13
like, damn man, you're pretty. But what's your Mccallie?
59:15
It. Happens.
59:17
But yeah, so got into we we knew about it.
59:21
So we would hit spots in Philly here and there and then what I
59:25
yeah had a 240 and stuff like that and we had a S10 and then
59:30
he had an MA on the buying an MA 70 Supra turbo for 100 bucks
59:35
from this guy that that would just had it sitting is.
59:38
That really how it was 100, don't you don't?
59:42
Got to go to 100. Dollars a Benjamin and I got a
59:46
fucking supra. That can't be.
59:49
I won't say online, but I pay very cheap for a lot of stuff
59:52
that I get. I know how to hassle.
59:53
I'm telling you, but I This is the kind of shit my dad's.
59:56
We used to get cars all the time for $50.
59:59
Well, no. No, it's the truth.
1:00:00
It's the truth. Back in the days, nobody cared
1:00:04
for it. Nobody cared It just cars
1:00:06
sitting there, you know? The head gasket went on it.
1:00:09
They didn't care. So weird.
1:00:11
So we end up getting to rebuilding it.
1:00:12
So he was sliding that thing around and then I got a little
1:00:16
issue and took a break. Then I started working for a
1:00:19
place called. We opened the shop up called
1:00:22
JDM. It was JDM Motorsports in
1:00:25
Philly. We used to bring half cuts and
1:00:26
stuff like that, and that's where Reese and I, marine met,
1:00:31
met together and we became friends and stuff like that.
1:00:34
But whatchamacallit, I had a 86. I end up buying a single, I end
1:00:39
up doing a 20 valve swap on it. And then it was Reese myself,
1:00:46
certain professional Drifters I won't name because they were
1:00:48
doing stuff that we're supposed to be doing.
1:00:50
But I fucking love that. And and we had spots.
1:00:54
We didn't go for crowds, you know we had a ton of little
1:00:57
spots everywhere. And we'll hit it, go hit it, go
1:01:01
another place, hit the other place, hit that place once in a
1:01:04
while. Or if I was by myself, I'd do
1:01:06
that too. And that's where it started and
1:01:10
we knew about. I used to come up to Club Blues
1:01:11
just to watch because once I tell everybody, even if you're
1:01:14
not driving, go watch, go and go and get to meet people.
1:01:19
So we may have done some meets that involve sliding cards
1:01:23
around and we may have put on our forum one day and a couple
1:01:28
times and it was the greatest night Saturday nights ever.
1:01:32
Crop control, perfect people were there to watch and have a
1:01:35
great time. Never had an issue.
1:01:38
And then one day, somebody, a good friend of ours, like this
1:01:41
dude, just bring it here. So we went to like one of those
1:01:47
clinics they had. They said, all right, let's go.
1:01:49
And Reese was killing it right off the bat.
1:01:52
I was killing it with the Corolla and stuff like that And
1:01:55
what? Was Reese driving?
1:01:56
Oh, Reese always had two 40s. Oh, OK, right, right.
1:01:59
Before 240 he had like a little Integra, but then he had the
1:02:02
2:40 and then whatchamacalle had ASR swap on it.
1:02:07
Then he was, you know, he was hanging out with the guys from,
1:02:10
we used to call 5 Star Auto right there in Philly and they
1:02:13
had a whole bunch of two 40s and stuff like that.
1:02:16
And so we all went together and we hit up a club lose at the
1:02:20
Cheese Grater track of Englishtown.
1:02:22
Yeah, the parking. Lot.
1:02:23
Yeah. And.
1:02:25
The night moves parking. Lot.
1:02:25
It was already cheese grater. Dude, it's been cheese grater
1:02:28
since it was built. Dude, you're literally sliding
1:02:31
and you feel the asphalt flying and then you hit a cone and
1:02:37
you're you'll be a perfect dent of the cone because the cone
1:02:40
would be like they weigh like 50 lbs or something like that.
1:02:43
And then whatchamacallit. But yeah we started hitting
1:02:46
those up and the guys like petty and stuff like that.
1:02:49
You guys need to chill. If you, you know, I don't want
1:02:52
you to either pay for it out there, pay for it in here, which
1:02:56
is the reality is I was getting to the point in my life where I
1:02:58
don't want to for any tickets and stuff like that.
1:03:01
But we were in Philly, but people don't understand.
1:03:03
We were in Philly back in those days and the cops would be like
1:03:06
yo, son, you know, like yo let me see that yo on though.
1:03:09
And you go out there and the cops were cool high fiving each
1:03:12
other and it happened so many times and watch him call it, but
1:03:16
it got to the point where you started.
1:03:17
Let's let's just go back to the track, you know, go to the
1:03:20
track. We started hitting the track
1:03:21
this 07 and oh, since 07:00 I've been there.
1:03:26
Yes, that sounds kind of similar to Reese's story when he went.
1:03:28
Yeah, yeah. Everyone.
1:03:30
Everyone just started to go legit eventually.
1:03:32
And look at him now. He's a Formula D judge.
1:03:36
Yeah, I'm really excited. About that I still spank him up
1:03:38
when I see him. I love that.
1:03:40
I love him to death, but yeah. Nah man, Reese is funny.
1:03:42
We had that podcast, I think also the the time that we had
1:03:46
before the podcast and the time after the podcast where where I
1:03:50
really got to talk to Reese like it's like, damn, man, like.
1:03:54
Yeah, he's been working towards this for a long time.
1:03:56
Like you, you. He deserves.
1:03:58
He deserves it. You know what I'm saying?
1:03:59
If you want somebody there to judge, you want Reese.
1:04:02
He's going to be impartial. I don't know if you guys ever
1:04:04
heard. We and Reese went to judge an
1:04:05
event in Puerto Rico. Oh really?
1:04:07
And it was the IT was cool. It was pretty cool, me going
1:04:11
back to my homeland. Wait, wait, So what was this
1:04:14
for? We got to elaborate.
1:04:15
On this I was trying to. My dream was because I know
1:04:19
there was drifting in Puerto Rico.
1:04:20
This is like OA, but The thing is that a lot of the old heads
1:04:25
was holding it back. We they want them to compete,
1:04:26
compete, want trophies and stuff like that.
1:04:29
The younger guys drifting in, drifting, they all want big
1:04:31
payouts because they're in Puerto Rico.
1:04:33
Everybody's very competitive. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:04:35
And that's why I stopped drag racing.
1:04:36
I hate being competitive. I'd rather show people and have
1:04:39
fun and joke around, meet you, got people like you and hang
1:04:42
out, stuff like that. And whatchamacallit.
1:04:46
I started wearing one of the forms from from the island and I
1:04:49
try to get these guys to like, listen, we are club Blues.
1:04:54
This is like two or three, two years into club Blues.
1:04:56
Sound like we have rules. It makes amazing drivers.
1:04:59
See these drivers you guys post videos about?
1:05:01
Well, they're from here. So I would like to go back to my
1:05:05
homeland and be like, let's do the same over there.
1:05:09
Just hit drift days and stuff like they were doing their own
1:05:12
thing. But The thing is, a lot of the
1:05:13
old heads were ruining for for the younger guys.
1:05:15
How are you? How are you making this
1:05:18
connection to the crowd in Puerto Rico?
1:05:21
To you. Because yes, forums.
1:05:23
You go on a forum in Puerto Rico.
1:05:25
Forum and I found a couple of Drifters.
1:05:27
I started talking to them and then whatchamacallit just grew
1:05:30
from there. And then there was people like
1:05:32
no, we have spots that we hit. We rented.
1:05:35
They used to rent this little parking lot in the middle of a
1:05:36
town. It was a small parking lot, but
1:05:38
they will have their fun. But when they had, when they had
1:05:42
the race tracks in the competitive end, it was always
1:05:45
the same guys kind of winning and and they were like undercut
1:05:49
each other and it was really bad.
1:05:51
So they got to know us and then they got risk and went in the
1:05:55
form too. And we start talking and then
1:05:57
one day it's like there's a big event coming.
1:06:00
It's going to happen at what's called Roberto Clemente Stadium
1:06:04
right outside of San Juan and did we want to do a little
1:06:08
drifting competition for the day?
1:06:10
He said OK and he said we need judges.
1:06:12
I could go and Reese's like I told Reese let's do it, let's
1:06:17
go. And Reese was like he was all
1:06:19
about it because he he wants you know, Reese was always trying to
1:06:21
build a portfolio for the future and we end up going and 1st
1:06:27
place. First thing we do is we go to my
1:06:29
dad's house because I haven't seen my dad in years And we
1:06:33
hanged out and stuff like that and we met with the drivers, we
1:06:36
went to the stadium and a couple of the local Drifters.
1:06:41
This is like Friday. A couple of the local Drifters
1:06:44
knew that we were there. They showed up.
1:06:46
There's a guy named Sato. He had this little Corolla.
1:06:51
And I don't tell you one of the most wicked build 86 of you ever
1:06:54
seen in life. This thing was a 4A GZE the the
1:06:58
supercharged motor. No supercharger with Civic Type
1:07:02
R Pistons. It wrapped at 11 and 1/2.
1:07:06
It had Hayabusa carbs on it. He just had it.
1:07:11
Well, he was beating on this thing.
1:07:13
This thing sound like a dream, So how the?
1:07:18
Fuck does a setup like that exist and I can't get my
1:07:20
motorcycle, He. Rode he the guy is a genius when
1:07:24
it comes to building stuff and then end up meeting the Lazardy
1:07:29
brothers, which they actually drift professionally here.
1:07:32
Actually, the younger brother Lewis and what's him called?
1:07:35
We all met at the stadium, Got to meet everybody.
1:07:38
Some people messed around, and we realized that the event
1:07:41
organizer didn't have no cones for us.
1:07:45
So I looked at Reese, and Reese looked at me.
1:07:46
It's like, I see there's a construction site right outside
1:07:49
somewhere. So next you know we have cones.
1:07:53
Whoa, where did those come? From these they just showed up.
1:07:56
It was like, man, I can't believe this, you know all these
1:07:59
fit in the jars. Well, the thing that doesn't fit
1:08:01
in the jars. But but how did you guys know
1:08:03
how to judge a competition? Because it's not like.
1:08:06
Yeah, it's like, well, we knew. It's all basics, you know what
1:08:10
I'm saying? Like, you know, as far as we
1:08:12
knew what we were looking for, The thing is, what they were
1:08:15
doing was not what we were looking for.
1:08:18
So we had a, the one guy forgetting that thing, the name
1:08:21
they used to call him Taliban. Anyway, he had this beautiful
1:08:25
S13 and he was scared. He was like, I don't know, I
1:08:27
could do this thing. So we sat with Reese, went and
1:08:30
sat with him and show him the whole, the whole setup.
1:08:33
We did that. He reset, done.
1:08:35
And then the guy did it and he was like, eyes open, he woke up,
1:08:39
he's like, Oh my God, I could do it.
1:08:41
I could actually go and actually slide this thing.
1:08:43
And it got to the point where we left that weekend.
1:08:46
Oh, then when the competitors started showing up that night,
1:08:52
actually we went Thursday, we went, the competitors started
1:08:54
showing up that Friday night. One of the guys.
1:08:57
That ruins it for everybody. Rick's fight with Rick's Reese,
1:09:03
well we end up becoming best friends.
1:09:04
But we pixel, right. Yeah Reese is one way and we
1:09:07
know Reese his Spanish you know he's Columbia.
1:09:09
So we're going back and he you know he could say certain words
1:09:13
that we don't like in Puerto Rico because different culture
1:09:15
wise and we're arguing we're going back and forth that you
1:09:19
got to sign the waiver you can't just go out there.
1:09:21
But he got in there pull his car and went straight to the track
1:09:23
with people in it and started sliding around.
1:09:25
So we brought it back and we had a conversation.
1:09:28
I sat there, I told him this is what we're going to do it.
1:09:31
You want to be part of it? That's on you.
1:09:33
You don't want to be part of it? Nah.
1:09:34
When people realize that just us two wanted a real event and we
1:09:40
were like, we didn't care what part group of what clique you
1:09:42
were in, they were like, OK, we could actually do this now.
1:09:47
We could actually go and compete and not worry about somebody
1:09:50
else cheating or stuff like that because they're going to be on
1:09:54
A. Standard there.
1:09:55
Yes. And then here goes the event and
1:09:59
it went Florida State for Saturday for practice and Sunday
1:10:04
it rain, but we still had it. We we end up stealing the whole
1:10:08
car show. Everybody from the car show was
1:10:10
not in the park. They were watching the drifting.
1:10:12
That's pretty standard. Yeah, I was about to say.
1:10:14
It's probably because it was more interesting.
1:10:16
The best and the saddest part was poor Sato had been driving
1:10:20
that car from, like, say, that Thursday night.
1:10:22
This is the Hayabusa Carb. The Hayabusa Carb Corolla and he
1:10:26
was driving that thing all night, all weekend and he was
1:10:29
doing the comp and was running for 3rd place.
1:10:32
His timing belt went that like 11 1/2 K.
1:10:36
Oh no. So.
1:10:37
That thing probably. Fucking it was done.
1:10:40
And we were like, oh damn, if you won't even not beat on it as
1:10:44
often. But what?
1:10:45
Anyway, so he thought he got third place.
1:10:47
We actually end up getting 4th place, but I felt so bad.
1:10:51
We took the the biggest cone that we had.
1:10:54
We had everybody sign it and stuff it with cash for his
1:10:59
rebuild and said because everybody enjoyed it but he was
1:11:02
killing all weekend, even practice.
1:11:04
Everybody loved him and we end up giving him the cone sign for.
1:11:09
We got on best of show and then we realized that we had no
1:11:13
trophies for the people who won the actual event.
1:11:15
So they may have disappeared from a container and then the
1:11:19
gun for the container may have disappeared and wrote down the
1:11:22
stuff and so they got their trophies.
1:11:25
So we did all we had to do. Then the best part was the the
1:11:30
best part of the day was the event sponsor was done cool,
1:11:33
which is like a Bacardi. And they gave me all this, all
1:11:37
these Bacardi done cool bottles and I put them down and my
1:11:42
actually my my stepmother, see my all my dad's ex and my mother
1:11:47
are best friends now. See, they all dealt with that.
1:11:50
That's hilarious. Yeah, they get along great.
1:11:52
They got along great. That's so much.
1:11:55
My my younger brother is Jose. If we see hi, he's my my
1:11:59
favorite dude in the world, whatchamacallit.
1:12:03
His mom and my mom took the bottles and we're drinking so
1:12:07
they were slosh. So I'm like trying to judge an
1:12:10
event with Reese. I'm looking over.
1:12:12
They're just trying to throw stuff and they're like God,
1:12:15
that's embarrassing. And but it was such a great time
1:12:19
and it was a great experience that we got to meet so many new
1:12:22
people and we left with oh we went to eat and everybody showed
1:12:29
up. All The Drifters we hanged out,
1:12:32
we we struck friendships there are to this day.
1:12:36
I was about to ask. Do you still talk to?
1:12:37
Anybody. Every single one of them.
1:12:39
When my dad passed Sato and my other buddy, they showed.
1:12:45
When they came to, I was in Puerto Rico, they came to the
1:12:47
funeral. So stuff like that.
1:12:50
That's what the drifting community is about.
1:12:52
You show up when you you know these people you meet just a
1:12:55
random stranger, they show up and like I say, I had it when
1:13:00
people are driving through how many times you somebody's
1:13:02
driving through a town and it breakdown and say anybody know
1:13:04
anybody here I know for the drifter, here you go.
1:13:07
Yeah, kind. Of crazy.
1:13:09
That's what attracted me to this community that I'm in Puerto
1:13:12
Rico and these guys will help me.
1:13:15
I'm in California and these guys will help me.
1:13:18
They're here and I can help them.
1:13:20
That's true. So what that became?
1:13:22
Drifting like down there, right now.
1:13:24
Amazing. Now I want to.
1:13:26
You It's kind of a crazy seat car scene down.
1:13:28
Well, oh, Puerto Rico's all about cars.
1:13:30
I think it's like 10 cars per person.
1:13:32
Over there, yeah. Actually, look up a site is
1:13:34
called Abandoned Cars from Puerto Rico.
1:13:36
It's on Facebook. When you get a chance and you're
1:13:39
going to see some amazing rotted out cars, people just leave them
1:13:42
parked. Amazing muscle cars and
1:13:44
everything, but because people don't use them no more But
1:13:47
Puerto Rico's drifting. Actually the guys caught the
1:13:51
there's a podcast also they called Drift Island guys.
1:13:56
They're really good and they've been keeping it up.
1:13:58
You know they actually more not about competition, more about
1:14:02
drift days and stuff like that and then they just event
1:14:06
organizer now that call Drift Yard.
1:14:09
My buddy Danielle Nieves is one of the guys that helps out with
1:14:12
them and they keeping it to the roots more like almost at Club
1:14:16
Blues. They're helping each other out
1:14:18
to make a grow because it keeps on happening.
1:14:20
Everybody wants to compete and now that all those old heads
1:14:25
that wanted to compete are gone, the younger guys are really
1:14:29
enjoying drifting like we are. Just for fun.
1:14:32
Just for fun, Just for fun. And they may hit up a couple
1:14:35
streets here and there. Well, that's nothing wrong with
1:14:38
that. Oh no, nothing wrong with that.
1:14:40
I feel like the I saw a like a video the other day where it was
1:14:47
my gender, our generation. What are we, Frankie Millennial?
1:14:51
We're OK, so we're millennial. And then there's that next
1:14:54
generation where everybody apparently has really soft
1:14:57
hands. Soft hands, yeah.
1:15:00
And then but but no but but no there's there's another one
1:15:04
after that, the one after that. There's already 1 after.
1:15:07
That I think so. Yeah, no, there's there's
1:15:09
definitely a. Because in the work community,
1:15:12
there is another after that are actually really fucking
1:15:17
dependable ass kids. Like really hard working kids.
1:15:20
Sure. Yeah, I noticed it.
1:15:22
I'm, I'm noticing it now. Even last year, I've been
1:15:24
noticing it. They're tougher too.
1:15:26
Like they they they that. That generation can't be of age
1:15:29
yet. I can literally, yeah.
1:15:31
Dude, now come look it up. Yeah.
1:15:33
Malcolm what is? I don't think they got a name.
1:15:34
They. Just want to.
1:15:35
Gen. something. Something like that, I don't.
1:15:37
Know no but but I feel like. Gen.
1:15:39
Z has to still be the current generation.
1:15:42
Dude, I think that there's another one.
1:15:44
I think people just want to jump out of that boat.
1:15:46
Because when did Millennials stop 9090?
1:15:48
6. Yeah, 96.
1:15:50
OK, then what's the one after that?
1:15:51
Gen. Z Gen.
1:15:53
Z is. Yeah, Gen.
1:15:53
Z is the last one. It ended in 2016, I mean.
1:15:57
So I don't know if. There's so there's one, yeah.
1:15:58
But those kids are like. Seven.
1:16:00
Yeah. It's not a given, no.
1:16:01
But OK, well, maybe like that later half of the of the next
1:16:05
batch. Yeah, get away from it.
1:16:07
They're they're tougher because, like, I'm telling you, man.
1:16:10
I want type 2 Gen. AA, Gen.
1:16:13
Alpha and. They got a sick name.
1:16:15
Dude, that's the. Start of everything again. 2000.
1:16:18
Everything starting again. 2013 to 25 oh.
1:16:22
Shit. Oh, OK.
1:16:24
Bullshit, Gen. Alpha Gen.
1:16:25
Z? Dude, what?
1:16:26
So Gen. Z was like 5 years. 90. 6 Gen.
1:16:29
Z is like they. Were to two, they were like,
1:16:31
that's enough for y'all, yeah, that's.
1:16:33
That's I told you, this is awakening.
1:16:35
People are just done with it. Nobody wants to complain, they
1:16:37
just want to get stuff. Done.
1:16:37
Now it's kind of. Crazy.
1:16:38
I'm just glad that's happening. That's phasing off where
1:16:41
everybody's a victim and stuff like that and now it's everybody
1:16:44
I don't have. Time.
1:16:45
I just assumed it was the more we get into the future, it's
1:16:49
going to get worse. The worst people get as far as
1:16:52
handling problems. And you know what?
1:16:54
I mean, that's what. It seems like definitely like
1:16:56
you know you can't live out of your without your phone.
1:16:58
But there's there's a lot of people who want to get hands on
1:17:01
and my nephews are one one of them, welding stuff like that
1:17:05
and stuff like that. Mother's a mother.
1:17:06
Nephew. Oh.
1:17:08
Can I tell you a quick yes story about family and drifting.
1:17:12
Yep. OK.
1:17:13
Please. So of all my family, the only
1:17:16
one who drifts of and I've been family, I call them nephews, but
1:17:20
they're not really nephew, They're just my friends, kids
1:17:21
and stuff like that. But I noticed that they're
1:17:24
babies. So for me, they're my nephew, no
1:17:26
matter nephew, niece, whatever. So I'm going to name his name.
1:17:30
I won't name him because he knows who he is.
1:17:32
Sam. I'm not going to name him Sam,
1:17:35
Frankie. There's a Ripper, but he's was
1:17:38
ripping out there, which I can't say nothing to him because I
1:17:41
don't know if you noticed, I used to slide around a lot.
1:17:44
And outside actually there's a couple of videos.
1:17:46
Me just doing Donuts. Nah.
1:17:49
Anyway, with my nephew that was like 8 years old.
1:17:52
But anyway. But Sam, I've been telling him,
1:17:54
listen, you need to come out to a legit event.
1:17:56
I want to be there for you. I want to help.
1:17:58
Y'all come back to see track. I'll teach you all the basics.
1:18:02
I'll get you out. You know, sliding really good.
1:18:05
Say fine, I'll do it. I'll do it.
1:18:07
I'll do it. Good.
1:18:08
The one event I decided not to go to last minute because he
1:18:13
shows up. Next thing you know I get a
1:18:15
picture on my phone and his his car flipped over at before Wawa
1:18:21
like he got into the corner, he flipped.
1:18:24
It all outer. Yeah, I know.
1:18:26
We went. He flipped it in there and he
1:18:28
had a a bash board that was too low and they dug in and flipped
1:18:32
them over. Holy.
1:18:32
Shit. I'm like, dude, you finally come
1:18:35
out and you wrecked this. I don't know you.
1:18:38
So anyway, I love him to death. I wish he comes out more.
1:18:40
He got a car set up now, but he's working a lot.
1:18:43
But we'll I hope he come out this year.
1:18:45
He had a BMW. I don't know what he has now,
1:18:47
but he had a couple BMWs. But whatchamacallit.
1:18:50
I want him to come out. I want him to set up the car.
1:18:52
But I'm like, dude, my only person that can directly relate
1:18:55
to me. And you flip the car over in my
1:18:59
spot. Yeah, Backtrack.
1:19:01
I was like, dude. That is exactly where I met you.
1:19:03
Like that is where I knew Will and I didn't really follow Will
1:19:07
on Instagram for the longest time, but I knew I knew Will had
1:19:11
a, had A at the time. Your Corolla was like like a
1:19:15
brown. Yeah, it was brown.
1:19:17
It was brown. I missed that color.
1:19:20
I did like that. Color might.
1:19:21
It might have been. I don't know who was breaking
1:19:23
front track East Coast Bash, but it might have been Will.
1:19:25
Yeah, I'll go. No, but I was on backtrack.
1:19:28
I was definitely first event or so.
1:19:32
Like I'm on backtrack single Cam coupe.
1:19:35
Nice. Drizzling.
1:19:38
Beautiful. Yes, I have them right there.
1:19:40
Yeah, and that is exactly where I'm at will for sure, bro.
1:19:46
You look exactly the same too, by the way.
1:19:48
You know, like they got. A couple more Grays, a little
1:19:50
bit less and. Even back then, you were chefing
1:19:52
it up. I definitely know that you were
1:19:53
chefing it up. Here's.
1:19:54
The deal with the chefing? I moved from Philly to Old
1:19:58
Bridge in an apartment complex. The apartment complex?
1:20:01
They only let us BBQ. So I was like, I'm at Ake Town,
1:20:05
I could BBQ there. Oh, OK.
1:20:07
So I went and bought a charcoal grill from Rite Aid to one of
1:20:12
those stores, and I didn't realize the box was open, but I
1:20:17
took it over there. There was no legs, so I put it
1:20:20
on top of the doughnut. They had made like 50 pieces of
1:20:23
chicken on my Moho chicken or everybody who's had my Moho
1:20:26
chicken. They know what's up, so we need.
1:20:29
It. Frankie I put it down and I was
1:20:32
barbecuing 50 pieces of chicken. My buddy was.
1:20:36
Background. You were hustling at the track.
1:20:37
No, it's free. Free.
1:20:39
I, I here's the deal, remember? I say I like, I was telling one
1:20:42
of the guys, my grandmother told me everybody eats.
1:20:46
Yeah, meaning everybody eats. I love that.
1:20:49
You know, she used to like I like the bums in the
1:20:52
neighborhood and I don't even call them bums because those
1:20:54
were good dudes. They had their alcohol problems
1:20:56
and everything. But my grandmother needed a
1:20:57
gallon of milk. They don't run and do it.
1:21:00
And when they were got sick and some of them eventually passed
1:21:03
away, but they were our house. The house in Puerto Rico is a
1:21:06
two-story house but the bottom is open like a garage.
1:21:09
So she put a cop there for them so they could sleep and stuff
1:21:12
like that. But she they all had food every
1:21:14
night. Oh, she was amazing.
1:21:16
And they make sure that was they were always fed.
1:21:19
So she's like everybody if if we go in the morning and we take
1:21:23
the old bread and we feed the pigeons, every person needs to
1:21:26
eat because we did every morning we had to feed the pigeons.
1:21:29
We had you know other animals and stuff like that.
1:21:31
And so my mentality was been and growing up with my mother to my
1:21:36
mother every sad that she'll make a big thing of spaghetti.
1:21:38
And the neighborhood kids like we were multiracial
1:21:42
neighborhood. I think the only hot meal that
1:21:44
those kids have ever had was on a Saturday night at my mom's
1:21:47
house. Because you'll boil a whole
1:21:49
bunch of spaghetti, she'll do some sauce, throw some cheese,
1:21:53
and these kids will just destroy it.
1:21:55
So my mother used to tell you because she didn't speak
1:21:57
English, just spaghetti for you, spaghetti for you.
1:21:59
So the guy grew up calling my mom.
1:22:01
Spaghetti for you? So they will see my mom and my
1:22:04
mom didn't know. She's like, she's tall, huge guy
1:22:07
and comes up to spread it for you.
1:22:09
And she's like, the hell, you know, like that, but like, yeah,
1:22:12
you. You guys are providers.
1:22:14
Yeah. So it was like that's.
1:22:15
What it is? So it so when it came to the
1:22:17
track, it's like, OK, if I can't drive and not spend the money to
1:22:22
drive, I could spend half of it and get some extra food and feed
1:22:27
the media guy or feed the workers or whatever.
1:22:30
So I will do that when I could. Not all the time, but when I
1:22:32
could then like my buddy Rob, he's the skinny, the skinny guy
1:22:37
with the long hair. He used to run Drift Brigade
1:22:42
with Damien Bagley, Chelsea Denolfa.
1:22:46
I know Chelsea seems like 16. That makes sense.
1:22:49
I know. Yeah, I I, I know.
1:22:51
Chelsea season was like a little baby that's he's like 16 and be
1:22:54
out of. Days.
1:22:55
A lot of people have passed through your hands, actually.
1:22:58
I know a lot of people and it's like it's funny.
1:23:01
I I enjoy watching like like yourself when you guys started
1:23:05
coming out and and you're getting better, I I feed off of
1:23:08
that. You you really do.
1:23:10
You're always open up to. Everybody.
1:23:13
See, I don't care if I want to be any better.
1:23:15
I'd rather see you guys. When you guys won that thing
1:23:18
over, which one would call it? I was super excited.
1:23:21
I was like, those are kids that were just hitting up the street
1:23:24
the other day. Came out, did a couple of
1:23:26
events. They listen a couple of things
1:23:27
they got better when killed that come back home, you're a hero
1:23:30
you know I say you're the proof that stuff is working.
1:23:34
So you want, you know, like I'll.
1:23:36
I'll be honest with you like. We did it for Club Loose you.
1:23:38
Know and then and what you call it was.
1:23:40
A party too? It was pretty crazy.
1:23:42
Yeah, it was crazy. And so, yeah, so obviously bring
1:23:45
the food I cook. And then by Buddy Rob Yvonne.
1:23:48
Then when then Hector will bring like I'll tell Hector yo, I'm
1:23:51
bringing chicken bring bread. So he'll bring the big loaves of
1:23:53
Spanish bread. He'll bring like four or five of
1:23:55
them. So we cut a piece we'll put a
1:23:57
piece of chicken and we had throw it at somebody and it's a
1:24:00
picture with Kyle my buddy Kyle. Kyle keys and he's like
1:24:04
destroying the chicken and see little gave in the background
1:24:07
gave his like I don't know like 7 a piece of chicken.
1:24:10
And it was pretty much that's what I was doing.
1:24:11
Then one day he was like, oh let's just cook at East Coast
1:24:15
Bash and we all set up and says Rob was doing catering and he
1:24:20
stopped doing catering. He held his equipment like bring
1:24:22
it in and do it. Oh, that makes sense.
1:24:24
That's getting more sensitive. So.
1:24:25
We brought the stuff over, we go pick it up and Rob will bring it
1:24:28
in his bus and. I was going to say it looked
1:24:30
like a pretty legitimate. Yeah, we have everything
1:24:33
already. So like special events like like
1:24:36
like the invitation, the both. We've done both invitations.
1:24:41
I remember the one time, what is his name?
1:24:44
Sater He had brought a hot dog stand and his family come up to
1:24:49
him and and it's like, oh can I get this, this and that.
1:24:51
So we give him the hot dogs and everything, set it up.
1:24:53
He's like dad goes to pay and then we like, no, it's free have
1:24:56
a good day. It's a hot dog stand I got to
1:24:58
pay. The guy was like he didn't speak
1:25:01
Spanish, Portuguese, an officer, I can't understand.
1:25:03
What you're saying, but yeah, he's.
1:25:05
I don't know. He's Filipino.
1:25:06
I don't know. But he had the heaviest accent.
1:25:09
But I pay. I pay like no puppy, you don't
1:25:11
pay, you go. So he goes, and this kid was
1:25:15
just looking at it like taking a bite.
1:25:16
Are you sure you could bite this?
1:25:17
And like go ahead because it's we believe everybody eats and
1:25:22
watch Mccola and you see we we go crazy.
1:25:24
We make the whole things and stuff like that and like we it's
1:25:28
technically the food is for any media people, any of the
1:25:33
workers. If you just happen to come and
1:25:36
have a conversation, we just care for your conversation.
1:25:38
Come here. What's up?
1:25:38
What's up? What's the weather?
1:25:39
Fuck yeah. Your hand is awesome.
1:25:40
And that's it. There you go.
1:25:41
Yeah, here's a piece of chicken. Very good.
1:25:43
I throw, I literally throw them chicken over the the fence over
1:25:46
at Wechamaco and Invitational and Fender Wechamaco.
1:25:50
So yeah, So. And The thing is, the reason,
1:25:52
main reason we do it aside from that is that we're a big group
1:25:55
of friends and we don't get to see each other.
1:25:58
And at least those events, we get to see each other and joke
1:26:00
around, talk about family and stuff like that and our families
1:26:04
come to the event and stuff like that.
1:26:05
So it's really all about that. You guys are a big part.
1:26:09
Of the gentle soul. It's like when you know how
1:26:13
angry you could get. I.
1:26:14
Was like, I was going to say actually, wait a minute, it's
1:26:18
it's those ones that you got to look.
1:26:19
At I know my limits, I know where I where I could get at.
1:26:22
That's why I'm so patient with all the drivers.
1:26:24
Like, you know, I don't know. We get the bad Rep and
1:26:26
everything and then half my time, half the time I look, I'm
1:26:29
angry, but I'm not angry. And if I'm in red, you see I
1:26:32
bring my kids and my kids run grid half the time anyway and
1:26:36
and I walk up to everybody, I'll introduce myself, I joke around
1:26:39
with them, I try to get them relaxed, I tell them to get rid
1:26:42
of the phone and stuff like that.
1:26:44
You know, only I think in the whole in this whole life with
1:26:48
drifting inspired 3 people in this world involved that were
1:26:52
were involved with drifting, that if I ever see them they're
1:26:55
going to strangle them. But thank God.
1:26:58
You're a waste. I'm going to need those.
1:26:59
Names at the. End of this pocket.
1:27:01
Oh yeah, we know. One Now, Where now, Now where?
1:27:03
I thought we. Were.
1:27:03
Going but what you might call it like because they're not.
1:27:06
They're not they're not good people.
1:27:09
You know what I'm. Saying they just straight up bad
1:27:10
to the bone type of you're not. Even I believe they, you know,
1:27:13
one you know, one of them I consider to be a friend or
1:27:16
somebody I consider respect. And he just completely
1:27:19
disrespected me. And that's not that's a no no.
1:27:21
Because I'll give you no reason to disrespect me.
1:27:23
I won't ever talk shit about you unless I could have legit
1:27:25
reason. And I will say it to you, but.
1:27:28
Frankie smells. What?
1:27:30
No, I'm just kidding, but you sound really good.
1:27:32
Thanks. No.
1:27:32
Yeah. So, like you see me?
1:27:34
What? How many times I walked up to
1:27:35
you? Like, I don't know who's in the
1:27:37
car? Half this.
1:27:37
I don't remember who. I don't know who I talked to.
1:27:39
Yeah. They got a helmet on.
1:27:40
Yeah, yeah, like I it probably took me like 5 times realize who
1:27:43
you were. I don't care.
1:27:44
I just want to talk to you. Realize right away gave.
1:27:47
You. Yo, you're you're killing it.
1:27:49
Why are you doing this, this and this?
1:27:51
Try this. You know, it was my third lap at
1:27:54
East. Coast, I remember.
1:27:55
And he comes up and he goes, you work for Frankie, right?
1:28:01
Yeah. He goes, OK, drive faster.
1:28:03
I'm like, yes, Chef. Literally like yes.
1:28:06
Chef Yeah, Like, no. Like, it's the truth is, like, I
1:28:08
want to. I want to teach everybody.
1:28:11
My goal is to teach everybody the basics so they can have all
1:28:13
the fun they want and I'll break their car apart, you know what
1:28:16
I'm saying? I have.
1:28:17
Half the time I jumped in the car and drove the car with the
1:28:19
people or driven their car. The funniest one was this.
1:28:23
We were in the parking lot and I drove this guy's brand new
1:28:25
Mustang and I slid it. I killed it.
1:28:29
This is back in the cheese grater.
1:28:31
And until, like, I see how it was all Toronto.
1:28:33
Yeah, yeah, it's all great. It's like, all right, I need you
1:28:35
to go back out. He said check your fresh heats.
1:28:37
If you need fresh heats. And he's like, it's only a set
1:28:40
of tires I have. What do you mean?
1:28:41
You got something to go home? And I know he drove in the
1:28:43
Mustang with no spares to drive it in the parking lot.
1:28:47
It's like, dude, this. You shouldn't drive when this
1:28:50
thing's like this thing is missing here.
1:28:52
I just destroyed your. Tires that sounds familiar for.
1:28:55
First day drifting. I have no idea what you're
1:28:56
doing. And actually, the funniest was
1:28:58
me blowing Josh Delisa's motor. Oh, I remember.
1:29:03
And sit in the car on fire. Which 10 his?
1:29:06
First, first, first of all, Or was it KRSR?
1:29:10
It was AK and it when he didn't tell me he had it definitely had
1:29:13
Ron knock prior. Wait, how many years where this
1:29:18
is like Josh's? 1st.
1:29:19
Event. 12 First event. I think it was the first event.
1:29:22
Because when he struggled to get the car over there, maybe, yeah.
1:29:26
Yeah, yeah, the car was definitely like lean oil.
1:29:28
I didn't realize he kept it so clean.
1:29:31
It was beautiful. The motor didn't realize.
1:29:33
They had a couple of issues. But I we again, it was the
1:29:36
cheese grater. And I was like, listen dude,
1:29:38
like your camber is so like fucking zero.
1:29:40
Let's bring him in a little bit so you could get a little better
1:29:42
grip. So we go out there, He spun out
1:29:44
or something like that. Then I drove the car and he was
1:29:47
like you. You got to keep the reps down.
1:29:49
I know what you're talking about.
1:29:50
I don't never read the past like 5000 and I'm like.
1:29:52
Josh is telling you not to Rev. It yeah, yeah, the same Josh.
1:29:55
I ruined his life. Just to let you know, the Josh
1:29:58
he got now is because I ruined it.
1:29:59
That's great 'cause he. Popped that first K.
1:30:02
He had to pop the K and get the Sr. and now he's the baller HE.
1:30:06
Said you got to keep the reps. I had to get rid of the K from.
1:30:09
Him. But he said that it was very,
1:30:10
very clean. Was Josh like this?
1:30:13
Just very clean. That's telling you, Dad.
1:30:15
I admire the way Josh's car, bro.
1:30:17
You you see it. You know when somebody cares
1:30:19
about this shit. I just remember coming out the
1:30:22
the sweeper and I'm hearing like, oh, so you pull into that
1:30:26
thing and and I pull into the parking.
1:30:30
It's like, don't shut it off because you want to.
1:30:32
Just whatever you want. A what you wait.
1:30:35
You want a what? You just want to like let it run
1:30:37
a little bit. Don't just shut up.
1:30:38
You don't want to seize on you because you ran hot.
1:30:40
Whatever. Yeah, if your motor is hot,
1:30:42
whatever. Don't just shut it off just a
1:30:44
little bit. Just you'll have to run.
1:30:46
I'll get you back home. I don't think it's just branch
1:30:49
it up, put some tape on it. Put an egg in a red.
1:30:53
So no, he pulls in and I we talked a little bit.
1:30:55
It's like, yeah, you don't have to take care of that anyway.
1:30:57
So I walk away and I look over and I see the smoke and it's
1:31:02
like coming in. It's in his car.
1:31:04
Why his car so cloudy? And then I see the glow because
1:31:10
the manifold was, it was a rush spot that had rusted through.
1:31:14
The rug was there and the manifold was there.
1:31:16
So he lit up the rug. Inside.
1:31:19
Inside because there was a hole in there.
1:31:22
And watch your mocos. I'm going to go and started off
1:31:24
and everything and I go like I did, Dude, I feel bad.
1:31:28
I'm going to tell you home, OK? And he says, what is it?
1:31:32
I'll go to my shop, I'll pick up my tow truck.
1:31:34
We got that time I used to have a tow truck in the old shop.
1:31:37
And you drove it and then? And we'll drive you to you where
1:31:41
you live at Stan Island. OK.
1:31:44
It's alright. He's like fuck.
1:31:45
At that time it was like it was my girlfriend.
1:31:47
So it was like my girlfriend is a Stan Island.
1:31:48
I probably go visit her after you.
1:31:50
So he's like OK now she's my wife.
1:31:52
But anyways I. Was about to ask that next.
1:31:54
Question. No.
1:31:54
She's my wife. Really.
1:31:55
My wife is from Stan Island. The only thing I was like, the
1:31:57
only thing good thing is Stan Island was my wife.
1:32:00
God bless. She's amazing.
1:32:03
She's amazing, man. I used to travel from Philly to
1:32:07
Staten Island every weekend. That's an insane.
1:32:09
Commute. What?
1:32:10
Every weekend for? From O72O9 in my Corolla.
1:32:17
My 20 valve? Hell yeah.
1:32:19
Oh, it was amazing. It was amazing.
1:32:21
Dude What? Are we getting Probably?
1:32:23
No. Yeah dude, it was like a 430
1:32:26
year on a Corolla. That's LA 17.
1:32:29
But it was the best part was like, I got put over so many
1:32:31
times because I was throwing fireballs at the back.
1:32:35
So I told Josh, listen, I'll pick you up and drop you off,
1:32:37
OK? So we put, I hooked the car, We
1:32:40
get on the back of the flatbed and every time we take a bump,
1:32:43
the whole car will go up in there.
1:32:44
Because the way my bed was too like, I don't know, I didn't
1:32:48
just think. I was just tired, gotten there
1:32:50
and then he eventually got the Sr. and hanging out with
1:32:53
everybody and they started building stuff and look with him
1:32:55
now, dude. Yeah.
1:32:56
Trying to do back in entries on tree turn all day long, dude.
1:32:58
That's all he wants to do in life.
1:32:59
That's you give that man that he doesn't need to do anything
1:33:02
else. He's got that tree turn on lock.
1:33:04
He does dude. I I just know that when Josh
1:33:09
gives me advice I I I value listen because it came from
1:33:12
somewhere and same with Frankie and same with Tom.
1:33:16
Tom but. Tom Das, Arcular.
1:33:19
Yeah, as arcular. No, just Tom hates me, dude.
1:33:23
He doesn't hate. You but we got all our info from
1:33:26
Club Loose. Yeah.
1:33:27
So no and and like yeah it it comes from.
1:33:30
So it's interesting to hear where it like came from and the
1:33:35
fact that I hearing, yeah the engine was clean.
1:33:39
It was spotless. I was like, cleans, AKA I I was
1:33:42
like, damn, you know, you really kept that shit clean puppy.
1:33:45
And I'm like, there's a lot of, like, shiny stuff here for guys.
1:33:50
Yeah, he probably got that from his dad.
1:33:52
Yeah, his dad has had a clean Maxima, I think.
1:33:55
He's not. He still has it.
1:33:56
He does, right? Yeah.
1:33:57
That's sick. That's funny that, Josh said.
1:33:59
Keep the ribs down. Keep the You know, he literally
1:34:01
was in the past. He was.
1:34:02
He was like his. I remember his hands going off
1:34:06
like that. Hey, you want to keep it at 5,
1:34:11
you know 555 and it's the you? Can't do anything unless you're
1:34:15
fucking right. Now, damn, I was playing
1:34:18
Moroccans by the time we were done.
1:34:19
Two Puerto Ricans playing Moroccans and yeah.
1:34:22
Fuck. That's a cool story though,
1:34:23
yeah? Over over the years though, so
1:34:26
aside from Josh, because of what that was probably 12.
1:34:29
I say 2012 is my guess because. I think that's when he told me.
1:34:32
That he started drifting, Yeah. Like you've watched it.
1:34:37
Yeah. Frontline, you're there.
1:34:39
Literally the last person to see him before they go off.
1:34:43
Yes. Like what I.
1:34:45
Seen so many rippers, become so many guys that were nervous
1:34:49
wrecks become rippers. My favorite one, one of the guys
1:34:53
like, I think his name is Grant Harris.
1:34:56
Is it got YouTube or something like that?
1:34:57
Grant grant. Yeah, he had a red BMW at that
1:35:01
time. Yeah I told him I was going to
1:35:02
smack his hands because I was in the passenger seat.
1:35:05
We ran a seat a seat track and he I think he came from roll
1:35:09
courses so he's holding the stereo really tight and he's
1:35:12
trying to follow the steering wheel.
1:35:13
That means it's first. I think it was his first event.
1:35:16
I said dude let go the steering wheel.
1:35:18
He said next time you don't let go the steering wheel smack your
1:35:19
hand and and he eventually started doing it and now dude
1:35:23
he's all over the place. I forget, I forgot that when we
1:35:26
sat there and but it's incredible like to see every
1:35:30
single one of them like you guys you'll be you're there you're
1:35:34
traveling all over the country drifting.
1:35:36
Chris came on that beautiful car.
1:35:37
I'm like, damn dude. Are you sure you want to do
1:35:39
this? He's not sure if he wants to.
1:35:42
Do that you know you're. Slam car.
1:35:44
I'm like damn. Well, now you got to see what
1:35:47
Frankie's up to, yeah? That's what I've been working.
1:35:48
On and. Technically, Chris.
1:35:50
Yeah. Dude, in a little while you want
1:35:52
to see what I'm up to. But no dude that that.
1:35:56
But yeah, I've seen so many drivers.
1:35:57
Like I remember when we got actually my my daughters think
1:36:04
if you're on YouTube you're here.
1:36:06
You're like the greatest thing in the world.
1:36:07
So pirate reason. I'm here today because why do
1:36:11
you curse so much? I I curse all the time.
1:36:13
Is it OK? OK, I curse all the time.
1:36:15
I was like, I just had some bad. Stuff you?
1:36:18
Curse. But whatchamacall it.
1:36:19
Nah. Whatchamacall it you know Chris
1:36:24
Ricks at the Mustang. So I had a we we got, he got
1:36:28
came out. I didn't know.
1:36:29
I didn't know who it. Was I remember when he came out
1:36:31
there? I I've never seen his YouTube or
1:36:33
anything, but I know people will talk about him, yeah.
1:36:35
I learned so much from. He he got good stuff.
1:36:38
I've. He got good.
1:36:39
Stuff. That's what people said.
1:36:41
Yeah, the basic. General.
1:36:42
Yeah, very general mechanic. You could do it in your parking
1:36:46
lot. That's his whole theme.
1:36:47
Could do it in your driveway and stuff like that.
1:36:48
And I think that's pretty cool. Some people hate on him, but I I
1:36:53
know him personally. I think he's a really stand up
1:36:56
dude. Whatchamacall it.
1:36:59
But I didn't know who the hell he was when he first came out
1:37:02
with the Mustang. All you saw this cameras over.
1:37:04
And one day I told him, listen, next event you need to come with
1:37:07
no cameras, he says. I want to be going to sit down.
1:37:10
You're going. You need a seat, you need to
1:37:12
see. Yeah, but I got to get
1:37:13
everything so I could put it along with the videos.
1:37:15
I understand that. But you're coming here just to
1:37:18
go in the in the grass. So one day he grows up and he
1:37:23
finally got an E break to work and stuff like he was trying to
1:37:25
get an E break. We had never had a good word on
1:37:27
an E break, so I brought this, this guy's Hyundai Genesis and
1:37:31
say Chris, jump inside. I got a little video on it.
1:37:33
He said jump inside, I'm going to show you why the why so
1:37:35
important about the E brake. You know, some people like don't
1:37:37
fuck the E brake. Nah dude, E brake is very
1:37:40
important to help you correct every little thing.
1:37:42
But anyway, so I said I'm here, I'm showing him how to do the E
1:37:44
brake. He comes to the next event and
1:37:47
got the E brake working and he starts ripping and starts
1:37:50
ripping. And then, of course, the day
1:37:52
that we were going to bump him to B class, I couldn't make.
1:37:55
I was at a wedding, so he called me.
1:37:56
He couldn't. Let everybody say the handbrake
1:37:59
stopped working. What I need to do is jump with
1:38:00
the beats and listen I'll call the guys just give me 3 solid
1:38:03
turns and that's just me saying on the thing he's like you gotta
1:38:06
give me 3 goods you know back there and we'll see and he end
1:38:09
up getting B because he was that he got that good.
1:38:12
And but The thing is he never brought up.
1:38:14
I'm a YouTube guy never did. Look listen right now I could
1:38:18
text him hey what's up papi? How's everything?
1:38:20
Because I know his mother and I know his family and the meeting
1:38:22
his family and well, whatchamacallit.
1:38:26
But seeing that he never, like I said, it was more like he was
1:38:29
there to drive. And yes, he has his YouTube
1:38:32
thing, but he was there to drive and he did very well.
1:38:35
And there's so many other guys that are doing that, like they
1:38:40
get better and better and better.
1:38:41
And I think Club Luce definitely has the formula.
1:38:44
A lot of people have that formula now, but that formula is
1:38:48
perfect. Like you you're breaking.
1:38:51
I I think last year was the first year I was setting off C
1:38:54
Class in the front track and nobody spun all day long.
1:38:59
I was like. Yeah, I was on.
1:39:01
There you were there. You spun out what you you did
1:39:03
that? At.
1:39:06
Least The thing is when you spin out, tell people you need to
1:39:08
spin out. You need to jerk.
1:39:10
You need to do that because you know we'll learn your limits and
1:39:13
like, don't listen to the listen when I tell people about the air
1:39:16
pressures and everything they say.
1:39:17
Start with that. What do you think about the high
1:39:20
tire pressure? I'm going to try that, but I
1:39:22
don't think I I could get away with you with Dakota.
1:39:24
I. Probably could get away.
1:39:25
With it heavy in the front. But you seen me last year, the
1:39:29
last event, I just freaking blew a tire right off the car.
1:39:32
I feel like it would help you because it would numb up the
1:39:34
front a little bit and let that rear end, you know, really.
1:39:38
Well, it doesn't take, you see, I I can't.
1:39:40
Like when we tend, you know, we did, you know, you know what?
1:39:44
Yeah, on the practice day because you guys were over there
1:39:47
at 7:00. Oh wait, really you guys?
1:39:49
We tanned them and yeah, whatchamacallit.
1:39:51
I think I either made you spin or you because my car, I my
1:39:55
clutch was slipping really bad and I had a misfire here and
1:39:58
there, so and whatchamacallit, once in a while it'll be on
1:40:03
rails. Well, I couldn't use third gear
1:40:05
that my car needs. Third gear, third gear.
1:40:08
It's everything for the car. And I was running out of gear.
1:40:11
I was running out of second gear and he got bum bum on that Linky
1:40:14
CU limiter. Another person that said
1:40:19
something about it. It's in the car.
1:40:21
I like it. When I hear the video, I'm like,
1:40:24
yeah. It was like, I think there's a
1:40:25
way to change that, someone said.
1:40:26
I hope so. I want to talk to my my buddy
1:40:28
and hopefully he could do that. But I do love that link though
1:40:32
that that was a game changer for the car.
1:40:33
But but yeah, I was only driving that event in second gear.
1:40:37
I couldn't do third gear, do third gear and it was just split
1:40:41
and clutch. It was.
1:40:42
And that's why everybody was getting away from me.
1:40:44
You were getting away from me a little bit.
1:40:46
And remember, I don't run angle my car.
1:40:49
My car is S13 front suspension. It's no angle stock.
1:40:53
Knuckles. It's all stock knuckles.
1:40:55
It's S13 front suspension. Yeah, we're just going back to
1:40:57
stock knuckles. Yeah, it's nothing at all.
1:41:00
I have no angle kit. Get rid of all the.
1:41:01
Knuckles only thing I'm doing this year, I'm definitely moving
1:41:04
my rack forward. What is that going to do for?
1:41:07
You my acronyms are so off like if you look at my wheels like my
1:41:11
right wheel be like this and the front one will be like so I have
1:41:13
to transfer weight and which is not easy on a Corolla because
1:41:17
you when you transfer weight then your back is not going to
1:41:20
get enough grip and then I'm running 2O fives so it's like.
1:41:24
Kind of big. Because and then one day I was
1:41:27
like, is it me? I'm at this bad at driving, like
1:41:29
one day and I drove. I drove this guy's BMW, had a
1:41:36
1JZ in it, or 2JZ, something like that.
1:41:39
And I was so bored. It did everything I wanted to
1:41:42
do. I was like, I can't drive like
1:41:44
this. That's why I got rid of my 2:40,
1:41:46
because it was so easy. I was like, oh, there you go,
1:41:48
oh, OK. I can make coffee and text
1:41:51
people and stuff like that. Watch more that's how.
1:41:54
I feel in a car with AV8. Yeah, it's like and like.
1:41:57
Not the, not the. You got a one, you?
1:41:59
Or three you. Or two you.
1:42:02
It's a one UZ for 98 VVTI and the only reason there is there
1:42:07
because when I blew my damaged my SRS, I wasn't trying to buy
1:42:12
another Sr. That motor was supposed to go to
1:42:14
a like a Toyota Duley. I wanted to pick up.
1:42:17
I wanted to put one of the Toyota Duley's like the old
1:42:20
U-Haul trucks. It's like an old pickup.
1:42:23
It's an old pickup. Yeah, they normally like U-Haul.
1:42:26
It's a dually, but a Toyota? Yes, wow.
1:42:30
And I wanted to make that into a tow vehicle.
1:42:31
Do you mind them? I never cared to.
1:42:33
I feel like, yeah. Look up U-Haul Toyota Dually.
1:42:35
It comes right up. They even came like 8 foot too.
1:42:37
Yeah, and Nah, not that. And this guy jerks off the 8:00.
1:42:42
Foot Yeah, this is the 8 foot Bay.
1:42:44
Bring that up. Yeah, and I want it.
1:42:46
Look at it. Look at it.
1:42:47
There's one. They're they're amazing trucks
1:42:49
like, so I wanted to build it like that red one over there
1:42:53
that like that. But they come like look at the.
1:42:56
Fucking back. That was gonna cut up the back.
1:42:58
No way. I'm sorry.
1:42:59
Joe got locked out of the house. Yeah, really.
1:43:03
Yeah, first time sorry Joe. Hope you're watching the
1:43:07
podcast. But yeah, so I wanted to get one
1:43:09
of these, put it one UZ. That truck looks.
1:43:11
That looks like a popemobile, minus the Pope.
1:43:14
Part. Look at that.
1:43:15
Look at that. Look at that.
1:43:16
Yeah. Whoa.
1:43:17
So. Hell yeah, I wanted to.
1:43:20
That was my dream truck to build and I was going to use that to
1:43:22
tow the Corolla everywhere. That's kind of cool.
1:43:24
That and then the one usually ended up in the Corolla.
1:43:27
I think he OK. I love that as a show car.
1:43:31
Tell me your opinion. Give me your hot.
1:43:33
Tape Malcolm the Green. One Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:43:37
Look at that. You should be done.
1:43:39
That's that's. The windows are too tall.
1:43:41
Yo, Chris, Chris, there's one of these in Bergenfield.
1:43:44
Yeah, he runs around. Yeah, it's what?
1:43:46
White. Yeah, it's white.
1:43:47
You go to the gym, It's running. Yeah, yeah.
1:43:51
Very rare. It's kind.
1:43:52
Of Cool. What's the factory motor in
1:43:53
there 22? No, it's they come in 20 R No,
1:43:56
they came in, yeah, they came 22R.
1:43:59
Some of them we could have made them in the 90s.
1:44:01
So they came with 2-2 R ZS and a lot of them came V6 with a six
1:44:06
with a 5 speed. That's the that's the three
1:44:09
three-point blow. That's.
1:44:10
The I think that's the Australia 1.
1:44:13
That shit is so fat. OK, here's the hot take.
1:44:15
Here's the hot take because we were talking about this in the
1:44:17
Discord last night. Shout out to the Discord.
1:44:19
If you're not a part of it, be a part of it.
1:44:21
Maybe you're Diego we do not like.
1:44:28
Recently I've been getting tired of the drift truck thing.
1:44:31
Really. Yeah.
1:44:33
Why you don't like? Them.
1:44:34
Unless it's like a really trick to I know people who put an
1:44:37
extensive amount of work you got trick, suspension, cantilever
1:44:40
style suspension. Some of those are.
1:44:42
Crazy. You like that word?
1:44:44
Yeah, Carl, that was spell it. No.
1:44:49
Spell it right now. Cantilever CAACANTILEVER.
1:44:58
Dinner for you. But no, that that's that's like
1:45:02
a crazy amount of effort. But like I feel like I just like
1:45:06
seeing the but then you have like the scout that that Ryan
1:45:09
Turk built. I don't know.
1:45:11
That's not a real vehicle back, he widened.
1:45:14
The whole body. I mean, it's amazing.
1:45:17
Crazy. If it was, no, but it's not.
1:45:21
It's not a real. Car.
1:45:21
It's not a car I got. It's like a pool.
1:45:23
Tube that car. Like when when you have like in
1:45:25
drag racing when people say, oh I got a street drag car that
1:45:29
make runs sevens and it's all tubed out and the reason is
1:45:32
because it has 2 doors. There's a Street car.
1:45:34
No. And the lights work.
1:45:35
That's not a Street car. You know this Abbey St.
1:45:37
Car is like has. You know what I mean?
1:45:41
It's you could drive it. It's.
1:45:42
Definitely not want to. Kill yourself.
1:45:44
Yeah, you know, you could drive it more than more than two miles
1:45:48
without running out of gas. Yeah, 2 Miles is about.
1:45:50
Right. I like, I like, you know, I I
1:45:52
like a good Street car. Like I want to be able to drive.
1:45:54
Like the reason, like my car is not cage.
1:45:56
I'd never bother caging it. It's because I want to drive it
1:45:59
in the weekends. I want to put my little side
1:46:01
side music in the background like, oh hey, you know and you
1:46:04
know people give me where it looks or it's bad enough I get
1:46:07
bad looks from the cops. So because they they they they
1:46:10
expect a young kid driving it and they see my fat ass oh he's
1:46:14
like, I'm just not enough butter to get him out of there.
1:46:16
So he's like, I'm not going to put, no, I never get pulled
1:46:18
over, he. Doesn't pull you over because.
1:46:19
He's like the The best one is the day I I wrecked up at
1:46:22
England Town. I destroyed my front bumper and
1:46:24
all this whole bunch of shit. We always destroy bumpers.
1:46:26
I'm like 8 bumpers in already. And I, my wife called me up.
1:46:30
She's like, honey, I'm ordering Chinese food.
1:46:32
Can you go pick it up? Like, yeah, sure.
1:46:34
And so I go, I go to, I go to pick up Chinese.
1:46:38
You just. Had five empanadas, I'm sorry.
1:46:41
I'm sorry, I'm sorry and. Apparently in my town that was
1:46:43
doing the the Shualis festival like for the Indian people and
1:46:47
watch them because the the cops were stationed at the Chinese
1:46:50
store here. I drive in my Corolla with the
1:46:52
V8 loud because I had no exhaust.
1:46:54
For some reason exhaust came loose and I drive up and they
1:46:57
all sitting down in a Chinese place.
1:46:59
Oh. They're, they're.
1:47:00
And then when? They saw me get out that car and
1:47:03
I'm, like, wobbling it on my way out.
1:47:05
And they looked at me like, I thought you were stuck in there.
1:47:10
I was like, and they're like, it was like, what's in that thing?
1:47:13
Ah, it's Ava and stuff like that.
1:47:14
Because I'm in Sayreville, so the cops tend to be cool around
1:47:17
there and stuff like that. And apparently people know me
1:47:19
from the Sayrebrook pages. So it's like, yeah, that guy.
1:47:22
Don't mess with him. He's funny.
1:47:25
I like, joke around with people. I'm like really straightforward.
1:47:27
I feel like the the V8 played in your favor there.
1:47:30
Yeah, I think the V8 did it. When they all look here, V8,
1:47:32
it's not no rice rocket. I'm like, dude, no matter Rice
1:47:35
rocket. That's a.
1:47:36
Whole. They know, yeah.
1:47:38
So they all came out, looked at it and everything.
1:47:40
Then I go pull out and I realized that when the bumper
1:47:42
broke, it damaged some wire and it blew all my lights and it got
1:47:46
dark because it was in the, it was in the fall.
1:47:47
So it was getting dark early and I drive it away with no only
1:47:51
headlights. And then the headlights came
1:47:52
out. I was like, I pulled over and
1:47:56
everything. I'm like, ah fuck, I'm just
1:47:58
going to go home. I drove home with no lights and
1:48:01
like and they just looked at me like they probably were bobbing
1:48:03
the head like that. Poor bastard.
1:48:05
He's a better car. You ever drive?
1:48:07
You ever drive home with no life?
1:48:09
When I bought that car, which car?
1:48:11
My 2:40. Yeah, like fucking 12 years ago
1:48:17
I got in Long Island and the only thing to add it's it was a
1:48:20
running car. And the guy was like, yeah, I
1:48:22
got into an accident, so the headlights don't go down or
1:48:26
something. And I was like, OK, I get there
1:48:29
and I realize the headlights don't work and it's it's like
1:48:32
5-6 o'clock. And I'm in Long Island and I'm
1:48:34
like, OK, well this is going to be interesting.
1:48:37
So right when I, right when I get to Manhattan and I'm like,
1:48:42
I'm like prepping myself, I'm like, OK, because I was trying
1:48:44
to get home fast, sun's going down.
1:48:46
I'm not even in Manhattan yet. I'm like, OK, I still got to go
1:48:48
to the tunnel. I got to get on three.
1:48:50
I got to do all this. And then the fan starts making
1:48:55
noise like something's or or was.
1:48:58
I think the car was overheating. Something was happening and I
1:49:00
was like, what the fuck? I pull over.
1:49:02
The fan was getting caught because the whole front end was
1:49:04
hit. So the fan was getting stuck on
1:49:07
the shrimp or something. And I was like, fuck, I'm like,
1:49:11
dude, this overheats right now before I go into the tunnel.
1:49:13
Like, I don't want to be that guy.
1:49:16
Yeah, so, so, so I I remember I shut it off.
1:49:19
I was waiting like on the side of the road, like right before
1:49:21
the entrance, like where you definitely should not be parked
1:49:23
on the side of the road. And I'm just waiting for a
1:49:25
little bit and then I turn it on.
1:49:26
It's fucking dark at this point. By the time I got to Jersey, it
1:49:29
was dark and I was just like just driving with no headlights.
1:49:32
I just had no choice. Dude, do you know what I did?
1:49:35
It's not even, it's not even nearly as non reckless as that.
1:49:41
I got my motorcycle, probably my second motorcycle now at this
1:49:45
point. This.
1:49:45
Is way more reckless already. Yeah.
1:49:50
Yeah, yeah. Dumb actually.
1:49:52
You had no headlight on a motorcycle.
1:49:53
Hold on, junior. Wait a second.
1:49:57
I was at Skyline Drive. I was out with somebody who had
1:50:04
a motorcycle as well. A little more experience on the
1:50:06
bike. She knew what she was doing.
1:50:09
I did not. Dude.
1:50:11
Ninja 250. Hers was brand new.
1:50:13
My shit not. All right, so I had a 98 CBRF 3.
1:50:19
I painted it myself. If you need anything painted,
1:50:23
hit me up. But yeah, I like we we went to
1:50:31
Skyline Drive, it got dark. Now I'm driving home.
1:50:33
Did you know you had no headlight?
1:50:35
The headlight went out and it was like a old halogen bulb.
1:50:40
Like, I don't really know. I don't know shit about
1:50:44
anything. Like now I could have maybe
1:50:47
looked at the. Fuse.
1:50:49
Turned out to just be the bulb, but my idea was OK.
1:50:53
There's no bulb, There's no light.
1:50:55
How do I put a light in there? Oh my.
1:50:58
God. Strapped your cell phone to it.
1:51:00
No iPhone didn't have that flashlight function back then.
1:51:04
Oh wow. So I had a pocket flashlight.
1:51:06
That's good. All right.
1:51:08
Right. Shoved it in there, taped it.
1:51:12
Or maybe I didn't even have tape.
1:51:13
I may or may not have just, like, jammed something there and
1:51:17
it really wasn't so that I could see.
1:51:19
It was so that I wouldn't get a ticket.
1:51:20
Yeah, yeah. That's more.
1:51:22
Got home? Couldn't see Dick.
1:51:25
Like going down this mountain of skyline.
1:51:27
Drive. Skyline Drive in New Jersey is
1:51:29
it's like, it's literally what you think it is.
1:51:32
It's a little mountain Rd. It goes through like little
1:51:34
parts of our Ringwood and Waunakee Reservoir and whatnot.
1:51:37
Yeah, at night that shit is dark.
1:51:40
Little flashlight made it home. Still here today.
1:51:42
Have all my fingers, have all my toes.
1:51:43
Yeah, dude. That's awesome.
1:51:45
No light on a motorcycle. Yeah dude, it was just for the
1:51:48
sake of not getting a ticket. I have an embarrassment of
1:51:51
falling off for 250 Ninja. You dropped one of those two. 2
1:51:57
Because I used to ride motorcycles here and there, I
1:52:01
realized that I have this no self-control on it and I'm in
1:52:05
danger in the road. And then I lost.
1:52:09
I was in danger in the road and then one day it's not in the
1:52:14
250. I was driving this old Yamaha,
1:52:17
one of the one of the sports bikes, and I got it for like 100
1:52:20
bucks. Another $100 in Philly.
1:52:22
What the fuck? Philly, you get a good point,
1:52:24
Philly. Back in the days, you could go
1:52:25
$100 and buy a house. No, no, Bush.
1:52:28
You go to Philly. You look for the tax lien, 100
1:52:31
bucks, paperwork and everything. You got the house, It's yours to
1:52:34
fix it. Fuck.
1:52:35
My buddy get that and they got the house completely furnished
1:52:38
with everything because old taxes and stuff like that.
1:52:41
People are Benjamin. Yeah, for 100 bucks in the.
1:52:44
Body freaking house. Not like dude he still has
1:52:46
everything but anyway so whatchamacallit I end up my
1:52:50
buddy had a 250 and I was like I wanna drive it.
1:52:53
I wanna drive it and I went to do AU turn on it and I fell
1:52:58
because I was expecting. I was used to the heavier bike
1:53:02
and I was expecting something and I didn't get that.
1:53:05
I just fell over and I looked at this like get this off me.
1:53:08
I got it off, yo. Will, you would look sick on a
1:53:11
fucking I. Missed it dude.
1:53:13
I. Road King.
1:53:14
Yeah. You know what?
1:53:16
I missed it like. I fucking know.
1:53:17
But it's like at. This point I know myself too
1:53:20
well. It's like now, mind you, I drive
1:53:22
like a grand a granddad when it comes to Vietnam.
1:53:25
Regular cars. But on a motorcycle, I know I
1:53:27
just want to go fast. What I want to put my feet in
1:53:29
the backpacks, lay down and just go.
1:53:32
Will what? But with this guy, ain't nobody
1:53:36
leaning down, it looks like. I'm like this.
1:53:38
That's what I'm saying. See, so now we we all kind of
1:53:41
have these physical limitations now, OK?
1:53:44
When I lean like that, I was telling Frankie or or or Malcolm
1:53:47
that I try to think back when I had like sport bikes and stuff
1:53:51
like that. And even thinking of being in
1:53:52
that position for more than 35 to 40 minutes aggravates me.
1:53:58
So now I'm like, fuck, I just want my I want a bike that I
1:54:01
could ride for a while. That won't hurt me that.
1:54:04
That was a Honda out there. That bike was a 30 minute bike.
1:54:09
Literally. That's that is the perfect
1:54:11
description. It was a 40.
1:54:12
I forget you have that. I called it a 45 minute bike.
1:54:15
I think that was if I was on there longer than 45 minutes I
1:54:18
was in pain and it's just because the it's a cafe racer
1:54:22
from a 71 CB 450 so the pegs are in the same spot but the seat is
1:54:28
fucking way lower. The bars are like clip ONS like
1:54:32
so you're just all scrunched up. Makes no sense.
1:54:34
When was the last time you rode that bad boy?
1:54:36
2019 Maybe I think everything died in my life at the same
1:54:42
time. You.
1:54:43
Caught. Car.
1:54:43
Bike. You know.
1:54:45
That's hilarious. I'm trying to pitch your flaky
1:54:48
on that. Thing You're still there, you
1:54:49
haven't gotten rid. Of Oh, no, he.
1:54:50
Built something so that it could rest even better.
1:54:53
There you go. You built a table for it.
1:54:56
I've been trying this whole entire time not to laugh out
1:54:58
loud. Why?
1:55:00
Malcolm walked over here and grabbed a beer and then looked
1:55:02
down. He got no shoes.
1:55:07
Just put a camera on it. You get paid.
1:55:09
Where? The smell was I'm comfortable.
1:55:12
No, I'm about. I'm finna take my he can do a
1:55:14
different podcast. He can make some real money.
1:55:16
Carl, you leave your shoes. I'll take my pants off.
1:55:20
The worst part is he sat down and look at him.
1:55:22
He looks at me and he gives me that.
1:55:26
Yeah, one time I had to go visit a friend and apparently they're
1:55:29
like, I do that once in a while. You know, I don't want shoes in
1:55:32
the house and stuff like that. And I swear my my socks were
1:55:36
brand new. But apparently, you know, when
1:55:38
they got that little plastic going through them and you just
1:55:41
pull it, I end up ripping them. I didn't realize.
1:55:44
The whole sock. No, just a little small hole.
1:55:46
But since I put it, once I put them on they started ripping
1:55:48
more and more. I get to my buddies house.
1:55:50
My tool was sticking out. So it was like.
1:55:53
I got I got the worst looking feet.
1:55:54
I probably could makes money on what you would call it.
1:55:57
But I had the worst looking feet.
1:55:58
They look like you could climb a tree.
1:56:00
I used Yeah, you could climb a tree definitely with them.
1:56:01
My. Shits look.
1:56:02
Like. But yeah, Barbie.
1:56:04
Feet. Yeah.
1:56:06
You ever seen those sheep that hang out in the mountains and
1:56:08
just like in the little hold on to the craters?
1:56:10
That's how bad my feet. I could do that like.
1:56:12
What? Mountain Goat.
1:56:14
Who's how bad my feet are? But what you go, I'm sitting
1:56:16
there, everybody's like, we're going to sit down and have
1:56:18
dinner. And I took one.
1:56:20
But you sure you want me to have to sock on?
1:56:22
Do you have a do you have a pair of socks I could borrow?
1:56:25
So he gave me his wife's socks. So what the fuck on?
1:56:28
I end up putting hers on. So I had this pink, fluffy socks
1:56:31
with that were nice and toasty. I wasn't complaining after that,
1:56:34
but yeah, it's this sucks, dude. That's funny.
1:56:38
Yeah, I got to take my shoes off all the time now because I've
1:56:41
been hanging out with Filipinos. So you know, white people, we
1:56:44
just leave our shoes on, go through the whole.
1:56:45
House Oh my God. Yeah.
1:56:46
Go to my my friend. Guys got me broken because now
1:56:49
my mom came the other day. But you do that now.
1:56:53
Been doing it, dude. Yeah, it's it is bad.
1:56:55
I love America, dude. It's a great place to be.
1:56:58
It is. Like now that I hang out with
1:57:01
you guys, I'm like, OK now I know it.
1:57:02
It is kind of disgusting you. Define you guys.
1:57:05
No, I'm just kidding. But but yeah, I mean Filipinos.
1:57:09
It's mostly Asian. Loosely kind of You know, will
1:57:13
do you Spanish people? Do you guys take your shoes off
1:57:15
before? Well, my wife makes me.
1:57:16
She she like literally attacks me.
1:57:18
If I don't take my shoes off, I. Mean.
1:57:19
It makes sense, dude. You've been walking around on
1:57:20
the street. With these shoes on well.
1:57:22
OK, here's the. Well, yeah, no, no.
1:57:23
I do take it off when I get to the house.
1:57:25
My boots sit in the patio either.
1:57:27
They don't come into the house. My work boots, if I forget to
1:57:29
take them off at work and leave it on my locker, they sit
1:57:33
outside and when I go inside sometimes I have sandals if I
1:57:37
remember while I walk barefooted, watch them call it.
1:57:40
But yeah, normally in our house if we, you know after nice
1:57:43
cleaning we don't want to touch, we scream at the kids take their
1:57:46
shoes off because they go in the house and run across the the
1:57:49
thing and we just got the floors done a couple years ago so it's
1:57:51
like beautiful floor and of course I scratched it because it
1:57:54
was me. Anything that's nice that?
1:57:58
That gets ruined as you. You cannot have anything new
1:58:00
around me because I will scratch it then it break it.
1:58:03
But just once and then after that it.
1:58:05
Just once. It's like a blessing.
1:58:06
Yeah. You've been blessed.
1:58:07
You're good. You mean No, We can't get any
1:58:10
worse than this. Yep, Yep, Yep.
1:58:11
Like for instance, I went to pick up a set of wheels the
1:58:14
other day. Oh no.
1:58:15
And I bought this sweet. I don't know if you saw I posted
1:58:19
because I only bought them because they got my last name on
1:58:22
them. Ortegas.
1:58:23
They got Aragon Ortegas. They get young wheels and I want
1:58:26
them for the the the IS250, which I want to get rid of.
1:58:30
I want to need to get rid of that car.
1:58:31
That's. A6 Speed one.
1:58:32
Yeah, I need to get rid of that thing because I never finished
1:58:35
my Corolla and what you want to call it.
1:58:38
So I'm walking out with the wheels and it was this Meineke
1:58:43
in Plainfield and this poor kid just bought a $26,000 Snap On
1:58:50
box for my my own. The Snap on guy I deal with.
1:58:53
But of course I'm not going to mess up his deal.
1:58:55
Whatever. That's between them $26,000 box.
1:58:59
$6000. And don't worry or. 22 wipe is
1:59:02
at. Don't be off by $4000.
1:59:04
But can't be how much shit is, yes?
1:59:06
Actually. What?
1:59:07
Is it big? It was a.
1:59:08
Huge. Is it gonna have It Was
1:59:10
accurate, but I don't think. I don't think he had It doesn't
1:59:12
come with tools. No, I don't think so.
1:59:14
And I didn't want to blow up my snap on guy, but he's pretty
1:59:17
cool. My new snap on.
1:59:17
Guy that. That's not his.
1:59:19
Problem. That's not his problem.
1:59:20
You want it. That's one.
1:59:21
You just America. Do what you want, but don't come
1:59:23
back to me. So I.
1:59:24
Got to come for one. It was around there.
1:59:26
So as I walk by, the rim taps the corner of the box, and here
1:59:32
that kid, like, I just paid $26,000 for it.
1:59:35
I'm like, my bad. So we used the car, took off.
1:59:38
I called my snap on guy like, yo, put 50 bucks in his account
1:59:41
for me. Yeah, just run my car, put 50
1:59:44
bucks in his account. And marked it.
1:59:45
I don't fucking know how to give me a look back.
1:59:47
I just kept on going because if he just came after me, I'm like,
1:59:49
what are you going to do? Like dude, this is a toolbox.
1:59:52
It's like, who pays, dude, I would have went to freaking Home
1:59:57
Depot. I got rid of my snap on
1:59:59
toolboxes and I end up buying one of those.
2:00:02
What is that Husky? And it's better than the snapper
2:00:05
ones that I had. The Harbor Freight ones seem to
2:00:06
be a pretty good deal. They're looking nice.
2:00:09
They came a long way. They came a long way.
2:00:11
Harbor Freight. Harbor Freight.
2:00:13
Probably my Are you an inside track club member?
2:00:16
Me too. I am.
2:00:17
I am. They got me.
2:00:18
Yeah, they. Got my ass too.
2:00:19
Here's how they got me. I was buying Christmas gifts for
2:00:23
my roommates, and the discount that I was getting offset the
2:00:29
cost of the membership and the two items that I was buying was
2:00:34
going to just be list cost. So I was like, if I just don't
2:00:37
think about the fact that I'm getting a discount, pretty much
2:00:41
just got this for free. Pays off because randomly I'll
2:00:45
go in there, I'll buy one thing, come out with five for free.
2:00:49
Oh dad, no, I swear to God, you should have seen the first time.
2:00:51
You have to you. Have to pay for this.
2:00:53
Thing I paid for it once and these are the questions I asked
2:00:57
One is it going to renew without me telling you?
2:01:02
He said no. I said OK, put it on.
2:01:06
That's it. How much was it?
2:01:07
I don't know. I think it was like the 50 bucks
2:01:11
for the year. And then you get like discounts.
2:01:13
And I get that, that extra little price, That's me.
2:01:19
It's crazy. I can't even discount that shit
2:01:21
any more than it's already discounted.
2:01:22
I don't know why every time I go out there I always buy foam.
2:01:25
Foam brushes. Yeah, foam brushes.
2:01:27
The little. And the little wire thingy to
2:01:31
clean the cleaners. Yeah, the brushes I get I.
2:01:34
Don't know why. And I go home.
2:01:35
I'm like, fuck, I got so many of these.
2:01:37
What I'm going to do with that? OK.
2:01:39
I need favorite item at Harbor Freight so far.
2:01:44
I. Don't actually care what the
2:01:45
monetary value of it is, because if you're buying $1000 at Harbor
2:01:49
Freight. I paid 15 bucks for impact
2:01:52
chisel that came out of there with the biggest balls in the
2:01:55
world. It takes out everything,
2:01:58
anything. I don't know what the hell who
2:02:00
built it was like, fuck, did whoever get this, you're going
2:02:03
to get the best one. It's going on.
2:02:05
It's an air chisel. IMPACT Chisel.
2:02:08
Those. Things are amazing dude.
2:02:09
I'm going on. I bought it back in OO3O4.
2:02:16
Still good to this day. Wow.
2:02:18
I I I couldn't get this thing out of work.
2:02:21
So when I went home, I had to work on a vehicle the next day
2:02:23
anyway. So I went home like, you know
2:02:25
what? I won't take this bitch.
2:02:26
Hey, half the time it starts. You know how you you turn it?
2:02:29
Sometimes it comes loose and shit like that, but whatever.
2:02:32
And I put a little little oil on there, dude.
2:02:37
Best 15 bucks I ever spent on my like. $15 15 bucks in 2000,
2:02:42
something God that. OK, that OK.
2:02:45
That that Harbor Freight thing for me are always OK always
2:02:51
hundred piece bag of zip tie I. Knew you were going to say zip.
2:02:55
They break, though. They do break.
2:02:57
I don't. They break, and here's why I
2:02:59
prefer that I'm only using them mainly.
2:03:03
For Arrow, yeah, but they break a little too.
2:03:05
Easily. If it's cold, it'll break.
2:03:07
I made a mistake. Yeah.
2:03:09
My shit's on there I. Don't know.
2:03:10
I stopped using the Harbor Freight ones and I started only
2:03:13
getting Home Depot or Lowe's ones, I think for drifting.
2:03:16
OK, fuck. OK, no, no, no zip ties.
2:03:18
And I don't like the gloves either.
2:03:19
If it's working for you, baby, keep it going.
2:03:22
Yeah, but OK. It's cheaper.
2:03:23
What about what about here's a here's a good Harbor Freight
2:03:26
product. The the zip ties.
2:03:31
No, I'm just. Kidding.
2:03:33
I hate. I don't know anything else like
2:03:34
go in there I the. Little mini The little mini
2:03:36
brushes we're just one time used.
2:03:39
You Chuck it. No little paintbrushes.
2:03:42
Oh. The silver ones that you blew
2:03:44
through in my toolbox, Yeah, remember.
2:03:46
Those. Every time I go to get, they're
2:03:49

Chris was here. What the little?
2:03:52
Silver. We use them for.
2:03:54
Yeah, like. Come on, motherfucker.
2:03:55
I used it to clean the like the the valves and stuff like that.

Yeah, just cleaning, lubing. Yeah, that's what you use.
2:04:02
You do a lot of lumen. He uses it for like Lube and
2:04:04

Yeah. Yes, and I go.
2:04:08
There's one. There is one that I always
2:04:10
reuse. It's for to mark the gears when
2:04:13
I do differentials. Yeah, OK, here, here's something
2:04:16
that I like. There was a period in time where
2:04:19
every purchase or every X amount over a purchase, you get a free
2:04:25
tarp. I got like 4 tarps at the crib.
2:04:29
What are you covering? Yeah, I got.
2:04:32
Making a slip and slide. Yeah, I see a sale of tarps at
2:04:35
Harbor Freight and they're, they're gone.
2:04:37
I got them. I'm getting them all.
2:04:38
Really. What?
2:04:39
I don't know why. Why did you ask him, Frankie?
2:04:41
What's he covering? I tell you, no, I tell you this
2:04:43
much. When I went to just, I just had
2:04:44
to do drywall work in my my steps then went to the basement
2:04:48
and I'm like, damn, I need to get some tarps.
2:04:51
And like, mind you, I have a whole bunch in the car in the
2:04:53
garage. So I go to the garage, you grab
2:04:55
something and I see them all laying there like, oh cool, I'll
2:04:57
put the tarp and everything so they come in handy when you
2:05:00
least suspect it, even though you plan to work on this and you
2:05:03
kept on forgetting to bring more tarps.
2:05:05
But yeah, they're there, dude, I have a ton of tarps, man.
2:05:07
They it just, if it's on sale, it's like, oh, 1499 for, you
2:05:10
know, 10 by 20. They are getting it.
2:05:12
They are good for the shop, the small.
2:05:14
Ones I I kept getting them up until Frankie one day gave me
2:05:19
like the tarp of all tarps. Oh, you're the one who got it.
2:05:24
I was just. Thinking I was like, I wish I
2:05:25
knew you because I gave away a tarp, but I don't know where.
2:05:27
It was bro, bro, bro, bro, bro, bro bro.
2:05:30
I came in the office. I told I demonstrated it for you
2:05:34
in the old office. I was like, I would used to come
2:05:36
right in here. I would fuck around with
2:05:38
Frankie, look at Malcolm go. OK, final bout.
2:05:42
Here it is. Then Frankie one day had this
2:05:45
box. Random stuff.
2:05:48
Me. I'm like what is this?
2:05:50
And he's like you want it here, it's a tarp.
2:05:52
Take it. I'm like, I don't really know if
2:05:54
I need take it. I.
2:05:55
Bought that tarp to cover my car once my other car.
2:05:59
Went is it, dude? This thing is the size of a
2:06:02
football. I take it back.
2:06:03
I bought it to cover my trailer when I bought my trailer.
2:06:06
And I, you know, when you buy something, you're like, I'm
2:06:08
going to take real good care of it.
2:06:09
And then in two years it's just rust.
2:06:10
Yeah. Yeah.
2:06:11
So that didn't work out. Dude, this this moisture kept
2:06:13
underneath the. I didn't even put it on.
2:06:15
I didn't even fucking open. It This tarp was brand new, but
2:06:17
again, it was the size of a football field, dude.
2:06:20
Like I unwrapped it because I wanted to, like, cover something
2:06:24
in my. Little.
2:06:26
Tent. This was huge, mother.
2:06:28
Of all tarps. It was gigantic.
2:06:30
Anyway now. Now we did a slip and slider in
2:06:32
my house. One day we just wet it, puts his
2:06:33
open on it. It had to kiss the corner cross.
2:06:35
I forgot to take the rocks from underneath.
2:06:38
I I I did that. We did that.
2:06:41
I inspected it, though, because I knew that that was an issue.
2:06:45
Yeah. Somebody was like make.
2:06:46
Sure. There's no show approved with
2:06:47
half the stuff I do. So what did?
2:06:48
You use that tarp for. My tar the the brown one now I
2:06:52
used it to cover my car when I was clear coating the Bay.
2:06:55
I used it to cover the bike. I use it.
2:06:59
You scratch the paint. What paint?
2:07:02
What the fuck you? Must go from harp with the
2:07:05
moving blankets. Yes.
2:07:07
Oh, yes. Yeah.
2:07:09
For sure. Anything in the front by the
2:07:11
register gets my ass every. Time.
2:07:13
That's the good shit right there.
2:07:15
That's the cheapest shit that they make the most.
2:07:17
Money. That's the only thing I'm going
2:07:18
there for. Little sundry items.
2:07:20
Yeah, you guys remember the whole fuse debacle they had?
2:07:22
The what? What they The fuse weren't
2:07:25
popping and I was the victim to that.
2:07:27
So I go I I bought a bunch of Harbor Freight fuses for some
2:07:31
reason, even though I could have gotten regular ones.
2:07:33
And I go to my car to Corolla when I had the Sr.
2:07:36
Sr. problems and I'm tuning it. I'm over at my buddy shop and we
2:07:41
finished tuning the cars ready to row.
2:07:43
And I I threw what the fuck was it?
2:07:48
It was like the the Jack handle. And I didn't realize when I ran
2:07:53
the wire in front the relay because I didn't use none of the
2:07:56
the OEM harness going to the fuel pump.
2:07:59
And it got it just enough that it grounded it out and next
2:08:04
thing you know you think the fuse would have popped.
2:08:05
It had a fuse for it, yeah. Fusing and pop.
2:08:08
It just kept on continuing all the way to the fuse And I smoked
2:08:12
on my car, burned up the harness I and burned up the harness and
2:08:17
whatchamacallit. The other fuses were like, yeah,
2:08:18
we ain't doing shit either so we're going to not pop, only the
2:08:22
old ones where they're popped. I had to do the whole body
2:08:25
harness on the car. Did you leave the fuses in?
2:08:28
Oh. Because how did you know?
2:08:29
Like how would you imagine? Yeah.
2:08:31
And you ran away because then dude like delivery that week I'm
2:08:34
I'm going I'm online on Facebook and this is class action lawsuit
2:08:37
and I'm like because they were they were suing because she's
2:08:41
wearing pop and just they say oh return them how about my harness
2:08:44
like so I had to replace the whole harness in the car.
2:08:47
And again, there was an event that was a.
2:08:48
What if you didn't find that article?
2:08:51
It was. It kept on popping up.
2:08:52
It just kept on. Everybody was putting it up in
2:08:54
the forums and stuff like that and but it didn't matter because
2:08:58
I have no way of proving, you know, what you do with receipt
2:08:59
from Harbor Freight Fly, especially you only bought fuses
2:09:02
and I only had it for so long. But yeah, dude, it's it's crazy
2:09:08
dude. It it cost me almost two months
2:09:10
of not driving the car because, you know, try to find a body
2:09:13
harness for a 86 and it has to be a 87 because I had the
2:09:16
sunroof. Can you even find stuff like
2:09:18
that? You can't find shit, man.
2:09:21
Everybody wants $1,000,000 for parching a car.
2:09:24
That's what Hector's tells us. Oh yeah dude.
2:09:26
And my my car. It's like my car was built with
2:09:31
just like Craigslist because I how long I own the car and eBay
2:09:36
parts. That's all you see in my car
2:09:38
except for the important stuff. Everything vibrant, all the all
2:09:41
anything functional wise is legit parts when DSR.
2:09:46
When at DSR I used to run a log style Terrible metaphor and I
2:09:50
ran a because I used to sell Godspeed his parts and it was a
2:09:55
Godspeed turbocharger and I don't think I never had an issue
2:09:59
with. It I was going to say it
2:10:00
probably ran fine. It ran beautifully.
2:10:02
Chris has a godspeed no? What do you have?
2:10:04
The Hiroshima. Strikes what the What do we call
2:10:08
the hero? What?
2:10:10
No, the the Wuhan Whistler. He's got the Wuhan Whistler.
2:10:15
Four years? No, Five years.
2:10:17
Now they lasted. The trick was before I find out
2:10:21
with their with their turbos is excuse me, put a do a fitting.
2:10:28
What I would do is I'll take a like an MPT fitting, put it in
2:10:30
there, sand it down and I drill. I forget what size it was on the
2:10:34
oil galley going in so it minimized the oil going into it
2:10:38
instead of. But what happened a lot of them
2:10:39
they were getting so much oil pressure they were popping
2:10:41
inside and leaking so it was lowering the flow down and do
2:10:45
it. I beat the living crap out of
2:10:47
that turbocharger for five years and I and just because I like
2:10:52
hearing the fluttering because I I would run the RFL and.
2:10:55
Really. Fucking.
2:10:56
And I would tie it up so you can hear the flutter like that.
2:11:00
And that's the only reason I would drive the car just to hear
2:11:02
that. That would bring a a smile on my
2:11:04
face. Now I don't hear.
2:11:05
What I think that I mean that kind of works for.
2:11:07
Dude, the RFL. Was one of my most.
2:11:09
Favoritest blow off valves ever My my old Tyler Tyler on his
2:11:15
MR2. So so my old roommate had had an
2:11:18
MR2 and one of the blah valves he had on it.
2:11:23
He was just like, yeah, it's a turbo access RFL I.
2:11:26
Kind of remember. And I was like, what the fuck is
2:11:29
that? And he's like it.
2:11:30
It literally stands for Real Fucking Loud.
2:11:33
Yeah, the more you type. And then he drove it and the
2:11:36
first time I just heard it, it was like a sneeze dude, full
2:11:41
blown, like it was like a woo. I was like, woah.
2:11:46
Yo, come to think of it, I kind of love Gee, want that shit,
2:11:49
right? I still have my original 1
2:11:50
because eventually my my goals in the Corolla is ripping out
2:11:53
the 111 UZ that's like 1JZ, the one UZ out because.
2:11:59
And I actually want to do a three RZ Toyota engine, the
2:12:02
Tacoma Motor. They're 2.7 liter yes A4
2:12:07
cylinder. Next Enough and you can make
2:12:10
about almost five and it'll hold it all day long with bone stock.
2:12:15
Turbo. Turbo.
2:12:18
We had to just slap a turbo forward facing intake and just
2:12:22
drive. That's the whole goal.
2:12:25
Don't be on. My car is no downtime.
2:12:28
Plenty of fun time and what you might call it.
2:12:32
That's the only reason the one you season there I went for
2:12:35
almost five years without changing the oil.
2:12:36
Next thing I only changed the oil I.
2:12:39
Would fight with. You guys in doing it?
2:12:41
The oil is fermenting I. Remember Matt Petty was like,
2:12:43
yeah, I won't change the oil. Yeah.
2:12:45
It's it's I don't know. If it was an old school.
2:12:47
I would check it. It was nice and clear.
2:12:49
It was never foamy. It was rosella and
2:12:52
whatchamacallit because apparently rosella flows up.
2:12:55
But I don't tell the truth, man. I had zero issue with the car
2:13:00
there. Sr.
2:13:01
Lord of Vent Oil change. Any no matter what, I've always
2:13:04
got an oil change right away. All the gear, the gear, all the
2:13:07
same thing. The transmission fluid, same
2:13:09
thing. The only thing I changed over
2:13:11
the years in the Corolla was actually still had the same
2:13:14
antifreeze from four years. You know, five years.
2:13:15
When I put the motor in the car, I changed the oil for the event
2:13:20
for that competition. That was the first oil change,
2:13:23
yeah. Yeah, I was hyped.
2:13:24
I No. No, I'm sorry, I'm lying.
2:13:26
I I changed the oil for a 6th day when we had all the a six
2:13:29
guys together because I didn't want to break down.
2:13:31
Then I broke down. It took me an hour to get
2:13:35
figured out. It has some something with the
2:13:37
body harness and stuff like that and the car was acting up, got
2:13:39
it running and the car ran beautifully after that.
2:13:42
How much power does that they make?
2:13:43
It shouldn't be. Last time I died it was almost
2:13:46
at 300. But The thing is, I can't
2:13:48
squeeze it out because it's a lot of more torque.
2:13:50
The thing is 20. Fives.
2:13:53
It was no, no, I'm sorry. I'm lying.
2:13:55
It was like 2260 something and the reason why is the intake
2:14:00
runner the inside we're opening up.
2:14:02
So now a zip tied together and now it's definitely making power
2:14:05
perfect. And it's like anytime I have a
2:14:08
problem with the car, I just zip tied together and just keep on
2:14:10
going with no harbor you're. Pulling.
2:14:12
That shit fucker. I get some real 3M shit there.
2:14:16
And what you might call it, I got that hard as fucking time.
2:14:18
A little bit harder. It's like, I don't know if what
2:14:21
you might call it, a little thing, a little dab about Dino
2:14:24
for Chelsea when he was doing the D1 competition in the Miata.
2:14:28
I don't know if you ever heard about Ignition Drift.
2:14:32
They called him Ignition Drift. There was a reason why his his
2:14:36
throttle cable was shaping and broke so we zip tied his
2:14:41
throttle body wide open. So he will start the car and it
2:14:44
will take off. And then he was modulating.
2:14:48
He was modulating with the ignition in the Miata.
2:14:52
And The thing is, anytime the Miata started acting up, he just
2:14:54
upped the boost on it for years. I wouldn't, Chelsea, if you're
2:14:58
listening to me right now, brother, get another Miata.
2:15:02
Do it again, brother. But I'll see you next.
2:15:04
This year, I'm going to tell you again, you got to get another
2:15:06
Miata. He gets every car.
2:15:08
But. Chelsea de Nova did this.
2:15:10
Yeah, look it up. Look up at the option video.
2:15:13
When they came here and they kept on, they had that little
2:15:17
Dick stick, whatever they have, and Nation Drift.
2:15:20
It was because he was driving with that.
2:15:23
And if he didn't have Chelsea always had the weirdest problems
2:15:26
to happen. He was running 17 by Nines in
2:15:29
the back. Heavy.
2:15:32
You got to. Dude, that Miata was the
2:15:35
greatest thing in sliced bread. Oh yeah, he had a notch to frame
2:15:37
because it was so low. I think I've seen people mention
2:15:40
him before and they're like and miatas like all the time.
2:15:43
Yeah, that's. Incredible.
2:15:45
You know his his grandparents got arrested.
2:15:47
So they were amazing people. They're in Philly and they had,
2:15:50
they're used to run Miatas in the role course and stuff like
2:15:53
that competition. That's where he got the love of
2:15:55
Miatas and he been always been ripping Miatas.
2:15:58
I was. I know he got the the Stang, all
2:16:00
that stuff, but I wish he'd build it on the Miata like he
2:16:02
did. I I always think of BMWs when I
2:16:05
think of him. I think we think BMW.
2:16:07
I'm before that. The, the first one that he built
2:16:10
was in my shop in Philly, just sitting there for years.
2:16:12
I was going to buy it off of 500 bucks and I know where he just
2:16:14
decided to build it and he did a hang gasket.
2:16:17
He's like, can you do a hang gasket?
2:16:18
You want to buy it like, Nah, because we had his one of his
2:16:21
trailers sitting there and then one day next, you know he got
2:16:24
the cage built up and everything, that he wrecked it
2:16:26
at wall, that it wasn't his fault.
2:16:28
I still say it wasn't his fault. Oh, I remember.
2:16:30
That yeah, and whatchamacallit. And then he did the BMW, the
2:16:34
four door that in Florida and then we know him from there and
2:16:37
for years I was like dude, man, he needs a you need a spot you
2:16:40
need to drive for somebody else. You need for driving somebody
2:16:43
else. And look they worked out.
2:16:44
I remember when when Devon was looking for people and I think
2:16:48
he he was using. I forget if he was using.
2:16:51
He was using somebody or no. He was using the kid from
2:16:55
Ireland. He used to drive.
2:16:57
He used to drive the I think a soldiers or something like that.
2:17:01
What are you talking about? Yeah we're good friends.
2:17:05
We're fellow Toyota buddies and I'm so sorry.
2:17:07
Eric Sullivan, OK. I think Eric was doing something
2:17:10
that he now he ain't doing nothing.
2:17:11
And when Vong got Chelsea, I thought that was the greatest
2:17:16
thing for the sport. Not for for Chelsea, definitely.
2:17:19
But it was the greatest thing for Formula D And now you see
2:17:21
what happened now leaves. It is exactly what we needed for
2:17:24
this whole time. So but it's funny how this
2:17:28
little kid with Miata look where he's at now and you know it's
2:17:32
what I say about drifting. You never know where you're
2:17:34
going to be at in a couple years with it.
2:17:36
Some people disappear whenever come back.
2:17:38
Some people make it their whole lives.
2:17:40
Some people make it their whole lives, I tell.
2:17:42
Like every time I have a conversation with some of the
2:17:44
old heads and stuff like that dude just come out.
2:17:46
But they'll hit me up and whatever, just come out, hang
2:17:48
out with me. Just come over.
2:17:49
You hang out with. I don't know, I don't got my
2:17:51
car. And so, like, who cares, come
2:17:53
and hang out and talk. Frank Joy fucking guy.
2:17:57
Just hang out because you know what?
2:17:58
Number one fucking culprit right here.
2:18:01
I'm like, yo, Frankie, do you want to come?
2:18:04
Are you going to be I? Don't have my I don't have my
2:18:07
Carl. What am I going to do?
2:18:08
There are you going to be an opening move?
2:18:10
What opening moves? What is it?
2:18:12
Dirtiest or something like that, yeah.
2:18:14
Bad. I'll be there.
2:18:15
OK. If Carl goes, I'll be there.
2:18:17
I'll be driving my fucking car. Because wags is driving, AG is
2:18:20
driving. Yep.
2:18:22
What the fuck? Everyone's driving.
2:18:24
Chris is driving. Are you driving?
2:18:26
I'm leaving. Oh, they were on the phone here.
2:18:28
He's like Chris. 'S car was.
2:18:29
Misfiring in his driveway when I saw him.
2:18:31
I fixed it already. What was it?
2:18:34
Injector. You had a leaky 1.
2:18:37
No, it just stuck. Yeah, micro just needs tires.
2:18:42
I mean I just probably, I don't know I wanted to do take it but
2:18:45
I haven't done. I literally parked the car stuff
2:18:48
moves parked in my driveway and forgot about it.
2:18:51
I like I said, I was using it down the.
2:18:55
Other thing I went. Inside, I went inside to grab
2:18:58
some tools I had in there and then this week I had a piece of
2:19:00
drywall on top of it while I was cutting it.
2:19:02
So it was like it's my work table for now.
2:19:05
We know more about your house right now than anything you're
2:19:07
doing. The stairs in the basement.
2:19:08
I'll do. I'll do a ton of work.
2:19:10
That's my that's where that's your hobby.
2:19:12
My whole house is pretty much redone completely.
2:19:15
Especially about. Your house and now actually with
2:19:18
the main goal was once the house is done like as far as all the
2:19:21
work that needs to be done which is done already, it's the garage
2:19:25
is going to get a lot of love and.
2:19:27
And what you're doing, What you got, What you got?
2:19:29
Well, I wish I could raise the roof on it so I could put a
2:19:32
lift, but it's that's not going to happen because then I have to
2:19:34
pay more taxes or whatever. I don't know because my town is
2:19:36
weird. Does it say that somewhere or
2:19:39
are they saying that? And that we can just my garage,
2:19:42
to be honest with you. Yeah, it's legit now in there.
2:19:45
But apparently the guy who owned the house for me, two owners
2:19:47
before me work for the railroad and he build it with
2:19:51
cunderblocks that he stole from the railroad.
2:19:53
And then when he got caught halfway he stopped building the
2:19:56
garage and then one day he. So you can see the difference in
2:20:00
the and the reason they told. And the funny story was because
2:20:05
his daughter came over one day and said how we used to live
2:20:07
here and whatchamacallit and you know my grandma died passed away
2:20:13
years ago and we just like to drive around once in a while to
2:20:16
check out the whole house that you're welcome to come in.
2:20:19
He came in and most of there was a lot of work done already in
2:20:21
the house and her room was it's my kids room and then
2:20:24
whatchamacallit. It's like.
2:20:26
Oh, so you're the one who who put drew the picture of the
2:20:29
little There was like this. They drew like this Dow and
2:20:31
stuff like that and stickers and stuff like that.
2:20:34
Everything's from like late 70s, early 80s.
2:20:36
Like, yeah, that was my room. It's like, OK, yeah, I ripped it
2:20:38
off. I took a sledgehammer to the
2:20:41
drywall and then got it completely.
2:20:43
But. As you're saying this, I'm like,
2:20:44
I don't think I would want to go back to my house because I don't
2:20:46
want to see what happened. Yeah, it's not.
2:20:48
But you know I they really liked it because they were like
2:20:51
everything's done nice and nothing too modern in my house.
2:20:54
I like my house staying where where is it at?
2:20:57
But yeah, so because everything's done now, Michael,
2:20:59
I did the outside the garage, I repainted everything.
2:21:02
I'm doing some new signs and stuff like that and now my plans
2:21:06
is to redo the garage. Redo the I just did the
2:21:08
electrical going in on the new panel at the 220 Volt inside,
2:21:13
finished putting the heater and I'm going to do another work.
2:21:18
I have a work table but it's old so I want to do a little work
2:21:20
table. It's nice to have a good garage
2:21:21
at home. A good bench, I've.
2:21:24
Pretty much done all the work in the car.
2:21:25
I've done 99.9% of the car. Yeah, so.
2:21:29
That's pretty awesome. I painted it there so I'll get
2:21:31
in trouble at the time when I pee in it, so yeah.
2:21:33
Yo, he's. Painting a little better, man.
2:21:35
Carl's painting right now at his house.
2:21:36
I'm waiting for him to get that fucking visit from the cops.
2:21:38
I'm getting you. It's not going to happen because
2:21:41
I take care of my shit and I fucking spray under good
2:21:44
condition. OK, yeah, get that fads and.
2:21:46
Filters and middle work. Fiberglass insulation to the
2:21:50
moon, baby. You're not going to smell
2:21:51
nothing. Build that paint booth.
2:21:55
Yes. No, actually, I don't have room.
2:21:58
Well, we got a bunch of questions.
2:21:59
I'm sure you know how this works.
2:22:03
This one is from All I need is 1 Mike actually.
2:22:05
The other night we watched Mike till probably like 1:00 to 1:30
2:22:10
in the morning. Mike and Barry, digital
2:22:11
adrenaline. Barry, they had like a SIM drift
2:22:14
competition. We were watching it, dude.
2:22:18
I was. Dirty.
2:22:20
That was pretty entertained like a a little.
2:22:23
Bit like just two people driving.
2:22:24
Or no. It was like a literal Formula D
2:22:26
style bracket all the way to the end.
2:22:29
Like not watching for a whole season.
2:22:31
Like top 32. It was top 32, top sixteen grade
2:22:35
8, then the four or whatever the fuck and then all the way to
2:22:39
one. Yeah, that's pretty great com.
2:22:41
Is it more entertaining than watching Formula Drive?
2:22:45
No, because you at the end of the day, you know it's real.
2:22:47
Very. You know, formula DRIFT is real.
2:22:49
I feel like it's almost be more entertaining because yeah, I.
2:22:52
Was hyped up because it was like it was Mike and Barry.
2:22:55
But anyway, the the IT was really nicely ran.
2:22:58
Cool empanadas empanadas oh. Dude, so you don't even have to
2:23:07
finish that. It's a Puerto Rican.
2:23:08
Thing or paste? Pastelio Yeah, OK.
2:23:12
The people would stab each other in Puerto Rico over this.
2:23:14
I know. Literally we all joke around.
2:23:17
We all joke around about people from Ponce.
2:23:19
So all my Puerto Rican friends will know.
2:23:21
So Ponce calls everything pasta. Liga think it is.
2:23:25
And pretty much one is a pastry 1 is how you fold the corner.
2:23:30
And one's the type of dough. Yeah, and one is with fork.
2:23:33
It's all the same shit. I'll say it's all the same shit.
2:23:37
It's just the way you make it. So he's.
2:23:39
Saying what do you call it? I just call it food.
2:23:42
I was like, I'm too busy eating it to call it names.
2:23:46
But in Puerto Rico, my grandma would smack me if I call it
2:23:48
anything else, Anything else then?
2:23:50
And Pastelido. Because my grandma said
2:23:53
Pastelido and I'm like, OK, all right, grandma, kids, put the
2:23:57
sandal down. We're good.
2:23:59
Oh, that's that one was for okay to make sure I don't cross it.
2:24:05
This is some Diego, because this is for, this is for us.
2:24:09
It's our smelling salt. When I thought we were going to
2:24:12
do that by now. I'm waiting for Carl to buy
2:24:13
them. He's waiting for me to buy them
2:24:15
all, right? It might never.
2:24:16
Happen next week, next. Week.
2:24:17
Don't worry Stevie, our first non live podcast because I know
2:24:22
you're going to say something bad.
2:24:23
Carl thinks that this is going to make a difference, but you're
2:24:26
all still going to get an unedited, unedited version of
2:24:28
Pod of the Podcast on YouTube because.
2:24:30
It's just now means we could go free reign.
2:24:33
Yeah, if something happens, yeah.
2:24:35
OK, next episode. Diego.
2:24:37
Where do they sell them? Also, I'm not gonna read who
2:24:40
submitted this next question. I'm gonna have you guess.
2:24:43
OK, Who's your favorite Colombian?
2:24:47
Ha ha. Ha.
2:24:47
Ha. Ha.
2:24:48
Ha. Ha.
2:24:48
Ha ha ha ha. I'll say it is, Puto.
2:24:52
Marika. Fucking has to be Reese.
2:25:02
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Other than my step dads.
2:25:09
Yeah, because you know, he said. Don't worry, man.
2:25:12
Just let him know. Get his men nipples ready.
2:25:15
He knows what's going to happen to him.
2:25:16
That's insanity. Oh.
2:25:18
Shit. Oh dude, we used to fat to have
2:25:19
burp on Apple battles. Oh no.
2:25:21
Adrian, next time you see Reese, ask him what Fernando did to
2:25:24
him. I won't say it because it's not
2:25:26
my story, but we have a beast called Fernando.
2:25:29
We love him to death. He's a man.
2:25:30
This guy picked up my Corolla from the front like nothing.
2:25:34
Like picked it up, picked it up. Yeah, no motor though.
2:25:37
But he had the wheels and everything.
2:25:38
I can't pick up one wheel. He literally pick up the car
2:25:40
with both wheels and Reese kept on messing with him and Reese
2:25:45
was had his hands tucked on the transmission, he was doing a
2:25:49
clutch and Fando snuck up behind him.
2:25:51
That's dirty. And he put Reese's head to his
2:25:54
dog transmission and just lifted him up by, you know, his
2:25:57
nipples. But The thing is, we all love
2:25:59
each other, we are all friends and stuff like that.
2:26:01
So I'm pretty sure Fernando say something right, you know.
2:26:04
I would shoot someone if. It is relaxed.
2:26:08
Two way, yeah, we're we're we're very physical friends.
2:26:12
Yeah. There's the the, yeah, but I
2:26:14
feel like that goes with the the time I not the time like.
2:26:18
I feel like my younger, my younger days, my older cousins
2:26:21
would do shit like. Oh yeah.
2:26:23
Oh yeah, we're. Getting I'm sure this is like,
2:26:26
definitely not politically correct to say this anymore, but
2:26:31
who gives a fuck? We're a little deep into the
2:26:32
podcast. Well, like, do you know what an
2:26:34
Indian burn is? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
2:26:38
I don't know how to say had them.
2:26:39
Like 1000? Times I used to do it to
2:26:41
everybody else that was like a part of growing.
2:26:44
Up. Yeah dude.
2:26:45
Like a or or like a wet Willie. Not you, Willie, but like.
2:26:47
No, no, I I literally, I think last wet Willie I gave was to
2:26:52
Fernando, which I end up paying for ideally.
2:26:54
What's another? Oh, what do you do?
2:26:56
Oh dude, it was bad this video somewhere.
2:26:59
What? What's another?
2:27:00
You ever seen those, those safaris when the tiger attacks
2:27:03
the freaking poor little monkey? Well, I was the monkey trying to
2:27:07
get away up the tree and I didn't even make it up the tree.
2:27:10
Oh no, that's still painful. I still got scars.
2:27:13
Oh my God. But like I said, we all love
2:27:15
each other. Anything he wants, I'll do.
2:27:17
Yes, Sir. This is from Hector and he said,
2:27:21
what's the Moho chicken recipe? I'll die.
2:27:26
Oh, quick, Hector, Quick. Hector.
2:27:27
Moho chicken. Sorry, I thought about this.
2:27:31
So it was freedom moves and we were this guy named George had a
2:27:37
big bottle of Rumpel Mints and. Alcohol or the liquor?
2:27:41
The liquor and I didn't know where it was.
2:27:43
All I know it was tasty and so he was it was freezing.
2:27:48
He had an and and he came up to, well, go ahead and mind you,
2:27:51
everybody had drank tequila aguadiente, which is the
2:27:55
Colombian stuff, and Bacardi. And I was barbecuing chicken and
2:28:01
the Moho chicken and pretty much what you might call it all I
2:28:05
know I started barbecuing. I had the rumplement.
2:28:09
I was still so I felt sober and they had to restrain me to a
2:28:15
wheelchair. They I don't know where they
2:28:16
showed up. This picture is because I had my
2:28:18
camera around my neck, so I was taking a picture.
2:28:20
Is a picture of Hector when he was before, when he was skinny
2:28:24
the first time, pushing me on Oh no, Oh no, whatchamacallit on a
2:28:30
wheelchair and I'm fighting because I need to turn the
2:28:33
chicken that I was grabbing on a charcoal grill barehanded to
2:28:37
turn it. I was burning myself.
2:28:38
Yo, that's mad. And whatchamacallit.
2:28:41
And all I remember is getting pushed away by Hector saving my
2:28:44
life. Hector saved my life that day.
2:28:46
Well, more chicken. You will never get the recipe.
2:28:47
I feel like no one should ever share.
2:28:51
Can we place an order for this chicken?
2:28:53
We just got to. Go to the fucking.
2:28:55
Yeah, we got to go to a big event.
2:28:57
It takes like 2 days to make it because the it's all about how
2:29:00
long it sits in the marinade. It's pretty much it's it's like
2:29:04
a lemon. No, no, no.
2:29:05
I could tell you that. You know because you like lemon.
2:29:09
You want a lemon from whatchamacall.
2:29:11
And I'll just tell you this, you could start.
2:29:15
The bass is the Moho Goya Moho 16.
2:29:17
I use that as a bass, but it's other more stuff that I use on
2:29:20
there besides the Goya 1 and it's taking years to perfect it
2:29:25
and what you might call it. I have fed people from all over
2:29:28
the world with that chicken. Wow.
2:29:30
Yes. I like chicken.
2:29:31
I'm a big chicken. You You will like it.
2:29:34
You will like it. I'm sure I would.
2:29:36
I'll make it. I'll make a next event that
2:29:38
we're cooking. I'll make sure I'll make a big
2:29:39
batch of it. Dude, not too much, because
2:29:41
Frankie's going to fucking pass out.
2:29:43
He gets you get dietis bad. No, but I have a thing where I
2:29:47
just won't stop eating. There's nothing wrong with that.
2:29:50
Listen. Dude.
2:29:52
Me not stop eating. Not good.
2:29:54
You not stop eating. You could get away with that.
2:29:55
Yeah, yeah, this is true. This one is from Damien or at
2:30:00
Power Omen. Hi Damien, What is the best
2:30:03
drift car and why is it an A 86 love?
2:30:06
You from Damien? I'll tell you the truth, there's
2:30:10
a reason I still kept the 86, remember with that shitty motor.
2:30:13
But. Hey, whoa the, the, the, the.
2:30:16
You. See.
2:30:17
Fuck that motor. It's it's all right.
2:30:19
It's the most relaxing. Piece of automotive.
2:30:21
Engineer, are you shitting? I could still put a wine bottle
2:30:24
on top of it. And yeah, I can still do it.
2:30:27
And it's on solid mounts and whatchamacallit.
2:30:30
Oh, the balance of that. It just it just it has.
2:30:34
Other than putting IT VS that's the only thing you could ever do
2:30:35
to it. That's.
2:30:36
Yeah, you don't open those motors.
2:30:38
You just beat on it. You buy it, you put it on, you
2:30:40
beat on it, you get rid of it. I actually have a spare I bought
2:30:42
for 200 bucks. Can never would ever use it.
2:30:46
But anyway, 86 will always teach you how to drive.
2:30:50
Yeah, two 40s. I love two 40s.
2:30:54
But a 240? It's a it helps you push it a
2:30:59
lot further than you could get a push a Corolla.
2:31:01
The capability of. The car, like a Corolla, will
2:31:03
not forgive you. I have run a manual rack on a
2:31:05
heavy motor. When I transition, I have to
2:31:09
commit to it. That's why when tandems and
2:31:13
stuff like that, I I was doing my own line.
2:31:15
Because what you want to call it, there's no way I could have
2:31:18
saved it. That once that thing locks and
2:31:20
that stairwell, you hear my stairwell like you can't catch
2:31:24
it, and once you try it so fucking bad, I'll let you drive
2:31:28
it and you'll be like I will never drive this again.
2:31:30
Because I wanted one, I wanted. I hurt both my elbows at my
2:31:33
shoulders. I went to catch it and the way
2:31:36
it pushed on me, it jerked both my shoulders.
2:31:39
Yeah, literally straighten up and just drove it back to the
2:31:41
pits and never. And then drive for I only drove.
2:31:43
Is that what? A manual rack?
2:31:44
One time and it was barely drifting.
2:31:46
I'd maybe drifted one corner and I already was.
2:31:48
Like, I feel like this thing could snap my thumbs off.
2:31:50
It will. It happened to Petty, yeah.
2:31:52
Oh, Petty. When he hit his he had the
2:31:54
Corolla he went to, He was going in.
2:31:58
He was coming into the first turn off the straightaway he
2:32:00
transitioned and we see him low and I know he strays up and he
2:32:03
drives up. He freaking pull his thumb.
2:32:05
Back when was this? Because I feel like I.
2:32:06
Remember it like a billion in the 2000s.
2:32:08
OK, then I don't remember. It Yeah, in 2000, 2010's and up.
2:32:12
Oh, around that time. So you probably saw it.
2:32:13
Yeah. Yeah.
2:32:14
And he wants you. I think he's.
2:32:16
I don't know if he got caught in the holes to the steering wheel
2:32:20
but it pulled it and then it's there's a known thing that
2:32:22
happens on manual rack Toyota guys.
2:32:25
Like I had power steering when I had the, I saw it.
2:32:27
I had power steering and it was it was boring.
2:32:32
When the man in Iraq, it's I feel it's I feel better driving
2:32:35
it. But yeah, it's not.
2:32:37
My Corona is not forgiven. You ever want to convert it?
2:32:41
They got like electric kits now. Well, I want that was the whole
2:32:44
plan. But then this stupid IS250I fell
2:32:46
in love with it's grading my bank.
2:32:48
Account which is a 6 speed by the way.
2:32:50
Yeah, it's a two IS. That's a 6 speed.
2:32:53
Yeah, like I've done so much crap to it.
2:32:55
Like put a three, no three DRF motor and it it will be a fun
2:33:01
drift car. But that means I will never be
2:33:02
able to drive the Corolla again and I don't want to use it drift
2:33:05
car because it's a nice car. I I think of it immediately as
2:33:09
right now they're they're really cheap and I tried to look up if
2:33:16
they make anybody, if anybody has Jay-Z mounts that go in
2:33:19
there because if the IS were to ever go and not saying that it
2:33:26
is, it's just now I have this motor and I'm like, dude, I'm
2:33:30
going to. Remember it's it's just a Jay-Z
2:33:32
X. You could just interchange parts
2:33:33
with Toyota and you could put is it really under there a bunch of
2:33:37
people with two JS and one JS on those things.
2:33:38
I know and I don't. Know with the power.
2:33:40
Now I'm about to hopefully watch Chris this weekend.
2:33:46
You know you know your igniter you can use from a Toyota
2:33:50
Solara. Sick.
2:33:54
Just so you should be good. You should, but no, that that
2:33:57
two IS it interested me when we were at at Apex.
2:34:02
You know what I'm saying? OK, yeah, it's actually a PEXI.
2:34:05
It actually is Apex. It is Apex.
2:34:07
So we all call. It a Pexi, yeah.
2:34:09
I'm Asaki. Remember, I used to say vising
2:34:12
in all the time. They got, they got, they got two
2:34:15
ISS in there galore, dude. What?
2:34:18
What is the name 5 ziggin? What is it is that?
2:34:20
Goes again, it wrote. Was again something like.
2:34:22
That yeah, I yeah, I remember. I was like, oh, that's five
2:34:23

2:34:25
I said it to a gay DM nerd and he freaking.
2:34:29
Or bride is Brid, yeah. Yeah.
2:34:31
I thought. I thought Mugen was Mugen, not
2:34:34
Mugen. Mugen.
2:34:35
I thought it was Mugen until right now.
2:34:37
I don't know. Well, you're wrong.
2:34:39
This is from Beastie Boy E46. Is Frankie Car done yet?
2:34:42
I looked didn't look like. It's almost there.
2:34:46
I saw it it. Had a crazy progress for like 3
2:34:49
weeks. Ethan, do plan on working on it
2:34:50
this weekend. That shit was fucking yo, I'm
2:34:53

2:34:54
This progress, that's good enough.
2:34:56
If Chris, you can. Take little breaks here and
2:34:58
there, but as long as his progress, that's that's
2:35:00
progress. If Chris decides to pull up,
2:35:02
it's it's we're. Building the shop now And the
2:35:04
car, Yeah, that's. Too much?
2:35:05
Man do. I don't want to do like enough.
2:35:07
I don't even want to work in my car.
2:35:09
I want to just watch an anime all day.
2:35:10
Sometimes I'll get up. You're an anime guy.
2:35:12
Yeah, dude, I am not. That's why I'm like, I don't
2:35:15
know shit about. It I love.

I I've been watching anime since the 80s.
2:35:19
This is the Gundam days, dude. Gundam.
2:35:21
I'm not a crazy otaku where I know everything, but I like
2:35:25
otaku. It's like people who like a
2:35:27
little bit too much is. That like Chris the Senpai.
2:35:29
It's someone that's into Japanese culture, but that's not
2:35:32
Japanese. Yeah, so all of us.
2:35:34
Yeah. Basically, technically, yeah, we
2:35:37
can't. We technically Otaku kind of
2:35:40
yeah. But yeah so and I always watched
2:35:43
it. I like more of the like the
2:35:46
slice of life and stuff like that and or I didn't like Isaka
2:35:49
isa stuff which is like the people you know like you get by
2:35:53
the hit by the truck and actually know they're in a
2:35:55
different world after a while it's all the same Truck cun.
2:35:58
That's why when I get a truck I want to put my like my life
2:36:01
space at truck cun like which is whatever the Japanese saying a.
2:36:05
Letter away from. Yeah man, which is my luck.
2:36:09
Yeah, that's why I when I get my plate, I was going to get V hate
2:36:13
lol because and then they said no and they gave me just I
2:36:19
wanted to get ha ha ha ha, which is Spanish for ha ha ha.
2:36:23
And so they gave me two JS. I'm like, OK people think I'm an
2:36:25
Indian now da da. I like told people, hey da da
2:36:28
and like I drive up and like I like your judge.
2:36:30
That plate I was like ha ha, but Spanish but OK.
2:36:34
I wanted to get a bunch of ha Ha's on my plate, but just.
2:36:37
HAH. A we used to have the sticker
2:36:39
like and ha ha like in you know what you call it and everybody
2:36:43
who wreck. I used to put them on there.
2:36:45
Oh and Brian hop. Well the famous one was Brian
2:36:47
hop when yeah build this beautiful green SSS 13 and he
2:36:52
had this orange wheels that I almost got killed by a piece of
2:36:54
the wheel. I was standing by the I was
2:36:57
standing by the bank. He was coming the opposite
2:37:00
direction reverse and he hit and one of the pieces of wheel came
2:37:04
flying through the gate like perfectly like a ninja move
2:37:07
right through the freaking thing and landed next to me and
2:37:11
whatchamacall that one and put the little hot sticker on.
2:37:13
Actually, no, I think Gabe. We gave it to the Gabe and Gabe
2:37:16
couldn't. Remember that sticker?
2:37:17
Yeah, so it was. I used to make them, but I I
2:37:19
should make it again. People reckon just put a hot
2:37:21
stick around that. Sounds like a good idea.
2:37:24
This one, this one is probably the one that I want to end with
2:37:27
because I think it's full circle and it's, I think it's funny
2:37:30
that you even mentioned them, but front St.
2:37:33
Josh writes. That's actually kind of nice.
2:37:38
So I'm like, yeah, we're laughing, Frankie's laughing.
2:37:40
He's like, what is this fucking guy going to talk?
2:37:42
It's great, something very heartfelt, he said.
2:37:45
Wills selflessness and kindness changed the direction of my life
2:37:49
forever. Thankful for him.
2:37:53
And that's crazy because we talked about the story
2:37:56
unprompted. That's insane.
2:37:59
You've really changed that dude's life for real.
2:38:02
I don't know if you made it better.
2:38:03
But I don't really have made it better, better, but he's
2:38:06
definitely enjoying it. So.
2:38:08
Yeah, you know, I I always said like I listen, I don't want to
2:38:13
be anything, I don't want to be a pro and all that stuff.
2:38:15
You just want to just want to go meet people, have a
2:38:18
conversation, help them out and hopefully you know one day what
2:38:24
you might call it when they want an event and and see them win an
2:38:28
event and be happy. Dude, you don't understand how
2:38:30
much joy I get when somebody links the freaking Wawa turn.
2:38:33
When they come up, they finish Wawa or they they come down and
2:38:37
then they don't mind you, they link it.
2:38:40
Dude, I'm waiting for high fives and everything dude.
2:38:42
And people are like, oh you sometimes you're hard.
2:38:44
But like perfect sample was like Alexis Drift Kitchen.
2:38:49
I went off to her one day and I was like, listen, I'm going to
2:38:52
help you. I'm going to treat you like my
2:38:55
little sister. Now she thought, OK, she she
2:38:57
probably thought, OK, he's going to treat me like sister, like
2:38:59
he's going to be nice to me. But she don't understand.
2:39:01
She don't understand. I have a baby sister, which I
2:39:04
treat like crap. And it's because to make her
2:39:06
tougher. And I love her to death.
2:39:09
So I was harsh on her. I was pushing.
2:39:11
I looked at, I'm going to curse, I'm going to scream at you.
2:39:13
But the moment you link, you start doing stuff.
2:39:15
I'm going to be there helping, you know.
2:39:18
And she did. And she started killing it.
2:39:20
She's, you know, sometimes just straight as I said, I don't care
2:39:22
if you strained up going down the hill, but I want you to be
2:39:24
able to get. She started killing it and a
2:39:28
couple years passed by actually. I was listening to Damian
2:39:32
yesterday and whatchamacall. She reminded me of something I
2:39:35
said to her, like I kind of. I forgot it, but it was like a
2:39:40
pro bro down and she was out there killing it all day.
2:39:43
But I noticed something that nobody else was noticing.
2:39:45
Everybody was getting her props. Everybody was getting her props.
2:39:47
So I was like, I went up to her. Listen, she came up, She was all
2:39:50
happy. You see what I did?
2:39:51
So listen, I know I'm trying to kill you a moment, but you need
2:39:54
to get a trailer. And she's like, why?
2:39:58
Because I could see the fear of you wrecking and not being able
2:40:01
to drive him back. And the day you'll be able to
2:40:03
bring that car here Trailer. Not where she's from.
2:40:06
Far away. Right.
2:40:06
And she's she's she's a trooper, bro.
2:40:09
She's traveled this whole country.
2:40:11
She makes me jealous. I wish I would have done half
2:40:12
the stuff she'd done, you know, but whatchamacallit.
2:40:15
But when when she, I told her that, I broke my heart because
2:40:19
it's like I didn't want to say that to her because she was in a
2:40:21
high. I didn't want to bring her down.
2:40:23
But I wanted to make that next step and next, you know, she got
2:40:26
the drift kitchen. She's helping all the other
2:40:28
girls, which is I think what they did was amazing.
2:40:31
I did too and watch more call it and I seen a lot of those girls
2:40:36
that stop coming and I don't know where it started coming
2:40:39
again. I forget her name.
2:40:40
I apologize. This this one girl, she has a A4
2:40:44
door BMW and she she was messing up and then she went and did
2:40:50
something with the clinic and she did something with their
2:40:51
kitchen and she came to the vent and my my mouth was wide open
2:40:57
because she was freaking killing it.
2:40:59
I'm like what the hell. I went up to her when you doing
2:41:02
this. I was so excited for her and
2:41:04
she's like, yeah, I went to this and then I went to this event.
2:41:08
I like you're amazing and like you know and like I remember she
2:41:12
was a nervous wreck and now she's relaxing And same thing
2:41:15
with Bethany. I remember when Bethany was
2:41:16
there and I was like, why tying help.
2:41:19
He's like, Oh no, I want to you know what you call it.
2:41:22
And now they're just watching all that progress.
2:41:25
That's why I like a blow up. By drifting like you, everybody,
2:41:29
it's reachable and you can see their progress and you can go up
2:41:31
to them and get say, wow, you're doing amazing and it's not like
2:41:36
drag racing. It was like, Oh yeah, whatever.
2:41:38
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You got your times on A.
2:41:40
Sheet type oh, don't look at my don't look at my setup.
2:41:44
No. Everybody you're going big high
2:41:45
5 and you give them hugs and what you might call it and
2:41:49
that's I'll. I'll do this as long as I can
2:41:53
until either God takes me away or whatever.
2:41:55
But watch him. Recall that you'll see me there
2:41:58
every every event helping the new guy.
2:42:01
Yeah, and I do know, I definitely, definitely know,
2:42:04
that you're always out there. I try to be like some events.
2:42:07
I'm like daddy, it's all for this shit.
2:42:09
I read the one event I was like I am dying.
2:42:13
But you know, see me, sometimes I do song and dance and I start
2:42:16
screaming at people. Let's dance.
2:42:18
I'm making do burnouts leave me now but I had my I put my kid
2:42:20
out there. It's like you got to do a
2:42:21
burnout for the kid or the kids going to be pissed off at you
2:42:24
and they're guys do it and they're and it goes it goes a
2:42:27
long way. You know we as long as we keep
2:42:29
on. I saw everybody who runs any of
2:42:32
it or and if you're on grid I was a bit safe you're on grid.
2:42:35
It's just responsible your responsibility to make every
2:42:41
driver comfortable and make them better.
2:42:45
Because if you're on grid you should know what you're doing
2:42:47
and you should be able to pass in your knowledge.
2:42:49
If you're holding knowledge from another driver, go go into drag
2:42:53
racing or whatever that. I think Club Loose is one of the
2:42:55
best places to experience that personally.
2:42:59
Everyone that's on grid is always like if they see you
2:43:02
struggling, they try to help out, try to tell you something.
2:43:04
They try to tell you something. I try to tell you as much as I
2:43:07
can. Some people will hint I'm not a
2:43:11
hint guy. I'll tell you straight up.
2:43:12
OK, we need to do this is How about one second?
2:43:15
Listen, let's try this first. If it doesn't work, we'll go
2:43:19
your way. And then they come out like, I
2:43:22
just linked the whole field. Oh, wow.
2:43:25
So running 60 lbs of pressure in the front tire, it wasn't
2:43:28
working right. And he's like, well, listen, you
2:43:30
go get to it once you know your car.
2:43:32
Yeah, yeah. If you don't know your car, you
2:43:33
should be doing that. Oh, but this guy did it on
2:43:36
online. But that, that's him.
2:43:38
He's been doing it for 20 years. He could put doughnuts all the
2:43:42
way around and still link the whole.
2:43:43
Field, you got to keep it basic while you're learning.
2:43:45
Yeah, now you got to you know, especially B.
2:43:46
That's why I I would never, you don't never see me run B unless
2:43:50
then he helped just to run it. You will always see me at C
2:43:53
because I know I could get like the kid, like Justin and Lou and
2:43:57
all the other guys, they do the same thing if all the C guys are
2:44:01
doing their best to get you to drive and they all encouraging
2:44:05
it. So hopefully something tell me
2:44:07
this year is going to be pretty awesome.
2:44:09
I think so too. And we're going to have some
2:44:11
fun. I wish I could go to more
2:44:13
tracks, but I I don't like being too far from home.
2:44:16
Yo, it it does it, it becomes a weird like when we were at Pond.
2:44:21
Dude, I can't wait. For Yeah, Carl loves Mid Pond.
2:44:24
Dude, Mid Pond, So. Everyone.
2:44:25
'S going there. Great owner, great track.
2:44:27
I hear it. I heard it's.
2:44:29
So it's so. Far for for elders, people be
2:44:31
going far as. Fuck.
2:44:32
Listen. It's the destination.
2:44:33
It's like Club Loose was the. Nah, Nah, Let me tell you
2:44:35
destination. Let me tell you the reason why I
2:44:37
love it is probably because of the memory that I have
2:44:39
associated with it. Me, Ricardo, Kenny, Ethan, these
2:44:43
are people that we I've, I've talked about this trip multiple
2:44:46
times just now or in the past couple weeks because I'm like,
2:44:49
damn, we really didn't know each.
2:44:51
Other Yeah, it was kind of like Internet friends.
2:44:53
Yeah, come together. That's everyone got into
2:44:55
Sequoia. And then I saw the people from
2:44:57
club loose go down there too. Not like club loose, club loose,
2:44:59
but like. Jake.
2:45:01
Yeah, I I was Chris. Sorry, Jake.
2:45:02
I didn't go. I'm so sorry.
2:45:03
Steve When last time Steve Cohen I think his name is, he has to
2:45:08
have read read 350 ZI. Just love it down there and and
2:45:12
the organization. Like I couldn't have picked a
2:45:14
better event to go down there. I got to meet some more of my
2:45:16
other friends, like Andrew from Good Things Drift.
2:45:20
Diego, our other friend, Halden, who I also didn't know was
2:45:25
Halden back then. I just met him.
2:45:26
He was changing tires. We both laughed at each other,
2:45:28
walked away. I'm like, yo, that was you.
2:45:30
Your car did the thing that I. My car did the thing that I s s
2:45:33
do. I gave up.
2:45:34
I was like, yo, we're here. I'm going to drink now it's it's
2:45:38
let's have a good time. Like it was a it was honestly
2:45:40
just a great experience. It's great.
2:45:43
Right. Love that track?
2:45:44
That's the reason. I like you go anywhere, like say
2:45:47
you meet them online, you meet them in person that think they
2:45:49
went there in Puerto Rico and you meet them.
2:45:51
It's like you know them their whole life.
2:45:53
And though everybody driven, community in general is the best
2:45:58
car community out there, no prima donnas and the ones that
2:46:01
people are not on, they tend to disappear.
2:46:03
Yeah, it's kind of true. It's that's the best part.
2:46:08
And the people, the people, like I said, at the end of the day,
2:46:12
you know you're going to, you're going to grow with the sport.
2:46:16
And I told everybody it's your job to make sure to teach the
2:46:20
younger guys, regardless if you're hanging out, If you see a
2:46:23
guy driving down and let's say I sit on the beaches a lot, I used
2:46:27
to sit, sit a lot with the, the Brazilian guys.
2:46:30
I love sitting with those guys. They're amazing.
2:46:32
And that's the and what you might call it.
2:46:36
They would sit there and ask me, what am I doing wrong, what am I
2:46:38
doing better? What could I do?
2:46:40
I said, oh you're too fast, you're too slow.
2:46:42
You're too much ankle and you're you're you're scrubbing off too
2:46:46
much and you're throwing your last guy.
2:46:48
Look at him now. I mean, because I sat there and
2:46:51
yes there's a, there's a language barrier.
2:46:53
But because I speak fluent Spanish, I could definitely
2:46:57
relate with Portuguese, wanted to speak Brazilian or Portuguese
2:47:00
or whatever. We can each other understand
2:47:03
each other. So they're once they said that
2:47:05
they're they're happy and then they'll whatchamacallit, they'll
2:47:09
listen and now they're they're all Rippers.
2:47:11
They got some major beast cars. Yeah, what were the cars?
2:47:14
Because I remember someone talking about these guys.
2:47:16
They got a thing, they got a Henrique has the the he had that
2:47:23
2 door BMW with making like 800 horsepower, 600 horsepower.
2:47:28
He always smacked that thing around that he had the four
2:47:30
door. Do you have the other guy had
2:47:34
the Mustang, he sold the Mustang and then he, what do you want to
2:47:37
call it? He has the G35, a couple, two
2:47:40
40s, they're. Like invitationals?
2:47:43
Yeah. Do they win?
2:47:44
I don't think so. I don't think they won.
2:47:46
I thought that was nothing. But they're they're In Sync.
2:47:49
They started fighting the last couple years, they've got very
2:47:51
In Sync driving with each other. Thing is, they're high
2:47:54
horsepower cars. They're like gearboxes.
2:47:56
You know, crazy shit. But.
2:47:58
He. Oh, you're that.
2:48:00
Why are you going now? But at no, it's like I said, at
2:48:03
the end of the day we are. I think we are all lucky to be
2:48:06
in the sport. Yeah, me too, man.
2:48:08
I'm. Extremely lucky because we get
2:48:10
to have conversations like this. Yeah, I mean, while this sport,
2:48:13
can you sit down? I mean, I listen to some of the
2:48:15
drag pot, I listen to drag pot and then we just talk to smack
2:48:19
about each other the whole time. I'm like.
2:48:22
We do that occasionally, but. Yeah.
2:48:23
And no, we could talk to Macways all Love here.
2:48:25
Yeah, over there. They're like.
2:48:26
You guys suck me out. Yeah, you know this argument?
2:48:31
Your car's not tuned. You talking about your car's not
2:48:32
tuned right now, Dude, it just shit happens.
2:48:34
What's that happens? My shit broke.
2:48:36
Now, me hanging out, drag racing.
2:48:39
I'll put my shit in my trailer and it took off.
2:48:40
That's why we don't got no drag racing in English now.
2:48:42
No more people put the car in the trailers and took off
2:48:44
instead of hanging out. My wheel fell off.
2:48:46
I got hammered that night. Now I bet you people helped you.
2:48:50
Dude, yeah, probably people came with tools.
2:48:54
Cigarette here? You go.
2:48:57
Cigarette. But is there anything you wanted
2:49:01
to close off on well? Before, I mean, I think we
2:49:03
touched everything, but I'm just saying not to repeat myself, but
2:49:08
in this sport we have responsibility not to keep the
2:49:11
knowledge to ourselves and we have the responsibility to help
2:49:14
every single person that comes into the sport.
2:49:18
What you might call it, we might.
2:49:20
We got to keep it growing and just make sure that just because
2:49:25
the kid seems like he's not understanding you doesn't mean
2:49:28
he doesn't want to listen. He's probably just nervous and
2:49:33
what you want to call it. And if you're not driving
2:49:36
anymore, still show up. You have a ton of knowledge you
2:49:39
could have passed over. Can Hell it made you rekindle
2:49:42
your love with drifting and come start building something up and
2:49:44
come back. Out.
2:49:45
Stop talking to me, Will. I'm just.
2:49:47
Talking to me. Directly, no.
2:49:49
But dude, you're in the sport. Though.
2:49:52
That's why guys building the Mecca for two 40s on the East
2:49:55
Coast. And I said, I tell, listen,
2:49:58
that's why I would never get on you about it.
2:49:59
Because your car's still there, you're building on it, your
2:50:03
progress, you're building a business.
2:50:05
You have a lot going on. But you know what?
2:50:07
You still show up. You know, you still doing
2:50:09
anything. You're helping the community.
2:50:12
You can't. You know, like me, like I, you
2:50:15
know, I went. I got the Corolla OE 600 bucks.
2:50:19
I pay for it. I pay $600 in the middle of the
2:50:22
pine bread. I'm tired of hearing these
2:50:24
prices. Will, I sold all the GTS shit
2:50:26
that you need and I made it a living.
2:50:29
Damn. I bought pay 300 bucks for the
2:50:31
carbon fiber motor ride fenders originally which came back to me
2:50:35
years later and whatchamacallit. I always said if I can't drive
2:50:41
I'll either cook for the guys. I'll go hang out and pass the
2:50:45
little bit of knowledge that I do have to the new guys.
2:50:47
And I got the I literally the first time the Corolla ever got
2:50:52
driven to the track I invited some guys from Puerto Rico and
2:50:55
they got to drive it and beat on it.
2:50:58
It was at Nasr and they beat on the head.
2:51:01
They were having a blast out there don't they?
2:51:03
Sorry brothers, love you guys and whatchamacallit,
2:51:07
Whatchamacallit. But I stay in the sport.
2:51:10
Sometimes I couldn't drive, sometime I drove.
2:51:13
I make sure you know, whatever, just make the presence if you're
2:51:16
like, are there so many baller drivers that we had at club lose
2:51:20
that are not around? Anymore.
2:51:21
Yeah, I think about that sometimes.
2:51:23
Yeah, like you guys. But you're here though.
2:51:25
You're still there? He's.
2:51:27
Listen, he's still in the house. I.
2:51:28
Didn't do it. Frankly, he's in.
2:51:30
The house, he's just not hanging out in the living room with
2:51:32
everybody. Else I'm thinking I'm thinking
2:51:33
like way above me, but yeah. No, but I say that, yeah,
2:51:37
there's other people that you a friend of yours that I really
2:51:41
like. I miss them.
2:51:43
Just in case I won't say names because I do miss them.
2:51:46
A lot of people miss them, but. Somewhere in the as long as you
2:51:49
all care for, as long as people are happy.
2:51:51
Listen, man, that's all. Listen.
2:51:53
This world is, is We live in a miserable world where people
2:51:55
always learn our business. If you could, if you wake up in
2:51:58
the morning and you smile, that's all you can.
2:52:00
Get to do, man, that's true. And not complain about bad.
2:52:02
Until like 10:30. Maybe.
2:52:04
Nah, but yeah. But yeah, let's do this.
2:52:06
Like I said, at the end of the day, we're probably in the
2:52:09
greatest automotive sports. Yeah, Dora, C's oh, we are.
2:52:12
C is awesome and everything and but the sense of community here
2:52:17
is unrivaled anywhere. And it's reachable.
2:52:19
I feel like drifting is very reachable.
2:52:20
Yeah, totally. Yeah.
2:52:21
And the average guy could do it. Totally.
2:52:23
Retainable. Yeah, Like any.
2:52:24
But somebody could come out this season in the East Coast and
2:52:28
everyone up here would be like, what the fuck?
2:52:31
Might have to be in AZ, you know.
2:52:33
Can't be in a 240 but. Like the two, it was 2 Eastern
2:52:38
European guys because I don't know what country.
2:52:40
I don't want to, you know, turn away over there.
2:52:41
I'm going to say the wrong country.
2:52:43
I don't like it like yo motherfucker, what you said
2:52:45
about me. But these two guys came over the
2:52:50
same week they got here. They bought 2 Z's and came out
2:52:53
drifting. Wow.
2:52:55
And the cars were not ready for drifting, but they still came
2:52:58
out left. The cars, they go back and forth
2:53:01
and they come and drive. If they really got tell me the
2:53:03
cars done a little bit more, that's remarkable.
2:53:05
The guys don't even live here, but the cars are nearby once in
2:53:08
a while. They'll show up once or twice a
2:53:10
year since for the last three or four years.
2:53:12
Wow, that's fucking insane. Like a little vacation home.
2:53:16
Oh yeah, and this Sports for every age.
2:53:18
Yep. Look, look at, look at, look at
2:53:22
Gabe pretty soon. Gabe is 48 so.
2:53:27
No, Gabe is a 60 year old wise man in a young man's body dude.
2:53:32
Yeah, I know he's way. Younger than me.
2:53:36
Dude, I have talked to Dave as an adult, not Kirsten, because
2:53:39
you know, he's a kid when he was a kid, as an adult, since he was
2:53:42
a kid, since I first met him. Because he is, like I said, he's
2:53:46
a good kid, what you would call it.
2:53:49
And it's it's remarkable like like I said, that's the kids
2:53:54
that and and the kids that what you want around, like those kids
2:53:58
are awesome. That's the kids that's going to
2:53:59
teach the other kids how to do that be better.
2:54:02
Imagine when. Imagine when people start to be
2:54:07
afraid of Gabe. Oh, it's going to happen soon.
2:54:10
How many? People are afraid of Gabe now.
2:54:12
Yeah, Carl, you're afraid of. Him.
2:54:14
Yeah. I mean, don't tell him that.
2:54:16
Oh, I love Gabe, dude. Oh, by the way, probably next
2:54:19
year or so. My daughter, my oldest daughter,
2:54:21
probably be driving. Oh yeah.
2:54:23
Bro. Keep the IS dude.
2:54:25
That's perfect. No, no I need to get rid of.
2:54:26
That thing. Oh God damn it.
2:54:27
Dude, I I get rid of that thing. I make a couple of dollars, put
2:54:30
a couple of dollars in my. Pocket Get the real IS.
2:54:33
No, I I actually don't know the whole thing.
2:54:35
I want to build her a Miata and then I want to build a little
2:54:38
Miata and what you might call it.
2:54:41
And I told her, if you want to do this, I'll help you.
2:54:45
You got to help me work on the car, you know, daughter, you
2:54:48
know, water. And then think, of course, the
2:54:50
younger one, the 8 year old is the one that's the most
2:54:53
interested about it because she's about about me.
2:54:56
Like you're 8 years old. But she's the one who wants to
2:54:58
drive all the time. But what you might call it.
2:55:00
But yeah, I told her if you want to do it, I'll do it.
2:55:03
We'll get you a little car. We'll take you on the track.
2:55:05
We'll show you rent the track out a little bit.
2:55:08
And because she's she's trying to get that height now.
2:55:12
So pussy little 80, little 80 horsepower, Miata.
2:55:16
Perfect car, yeah. Well, shit.
2:55:19
Will. Thank you.
2:55:20
Thank you so much for coming on. Dude, that I.
2:55:22
Appreciate you guys. That was that was that was a
2:55:24
pleasure, dude. That was like that day at.
2:55:26
That was weird. Yeah.
2:55:27
Yeah. I was like, how can I say no?
2:55:31
I said. I like I could be at work making
2:55:33
some money or I could just hang out and make an empanadas and
2:55:36
sound good you. Took off for this.
2:55:37
OK, now I feel bad, no. No, don't worry about it.
2:55:40
I got plenty of vacation days, so I was like, my wife was like,
2:55:43
you could use that to go out somewhere.
2:55:45
Yeah, I know, but we got those too.
2:55:47
Well, thank you for that. I didn't know that.
2:55:48
Using my vacation days to fucking lounge.
2:55:51
Sometimes. Nah, man.
2:55:52
I appreciate you guys. Thank God for you guys doing
2:55:54
this. Pot is pretty funny, dude.
2:55:56
I love it. I enjoy it.
2:55:58
I mean it. It gives us the opportunity to
2:56:00
hang out with people like yourself and people that I
2:56:02
personally or Frankie. Or honestly, this is like the
2:56:05
most you really talk to people nowadays is when you sit down
2:56:07
and do one of these. Yeah dude, like, you pack like 7
2:56:11
weeks of texting. Yeah.
2:56:13
And like, well, you talk to people that like you see it
2:56:15
like, I didn't. I didn't know all this about
2:56:16
you. Like I've known you for fucking
2:56:17
10 years probably, but I didn't know all this about you.
2:56:19
And then we have one conversation and now it's like a
2:56:22
stronger connection. Yeah.
2:56:23
Not to mention all the people listening.
2:56:24
You see, I I took pictures of you guys.
2:56:27
I have more. It's in a hard drive somewhere
2:56:30
but I used to take care. I I used to always have my
2:56:34
camera with me even though helping great and stuff like
2:56:36
that. Oh I got to see that and my
2:56:38
goal. Yeah I tagged you on some old
2:56:40
pictures I have. I have other ones.
2:56:41
I have one that you just sitting going down the ramp it's from
2:56:44
the back and you see the tree turn and it's pretty cool.
2:56:47
That's cool too but what you might call it and I have video
2:56:50
but I got to find that and I was my goal also when I was working
2:56:55
backtrack was get all the sea guys media and I realized how
2:57:01
much it helped them. They're like, they were looking
2:57:03
forward to it. I'm like, Oh my God, somebody
2:57:05
took a picture because wow, we were taking a picture of the
2:57:07
same cars, you know, from a group.
2:57:11
And it's like, OK, media is just this, like this other beautiful,
2:57:14
amazing cars other than 240. Sorry, but it's the truth.
2:57:18
There was all the cars we had. Freaking Audis, Rebel Jack,
2:57:21
Converter, Audis and Subarus. Where's the pictures to those
2:57:24
guys? Yeah, crazy.
2:57:25
He spun out a dozen times, but that one pic would have looked
2:57:28
in a dirt drop, almost flipping over.
2:57:30
That would have been an amazing picture.
2:57:32
And yeah man, no. But yeah, it just kind of like,
2:57:36
like I said the other day, my goal is how about the new guys?
2:57:40
Get them in to be comfortable and ripping and hopefully not
2:57:45
spend too much money on the car and do not put a cage a week
2:57:48
after you got your event. That's the best advice I've
2:57:51
heard in a. While no horsepower, it's more
2:57:53
fun save money on tires. We'll always providing food and
2:57:56
knowledge at Club Loose, so make sure you guys check out Club
2:57:59
Loose this year, yeah. And East Coast your school.
2:58:02
And Malcolm. Carl can please, if you haven't
2:58:06
already, check out this new merch.
2:58:08
Absolutely drip tastic. It's absolutely out of the
2:58:11
ordinary for a faction as well. It's not like grim reapery type.
2:58:15
It's. Like people are boarding.
2:58:16
On it it's just. Ironically, I hurt my knee last
2:58:19
week. Skateboarding has nothing to do
2:58:21
with the hoodie, but still, cop one.
2:58:22
Just done a little bit more simple, yeah?
2:58:25
Drift. Drift.
2:58:28
Drift A drip. I think you said drip test.
2:58:31
I think I said drip. Yeah, I could go to a parent's
2:58:34
teachers meeting with that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
2:58:37
It's. Appropriate.
2:58:38
Not like my one publisher that has studies taken out.
2:58:42
All right, guys, this has been. 909090 Peace, Thank you episode.
2:58:50
90 Dude 90. Is 1.
2:58:54
Well guys, I hope you enjoyed that episode.
2:58:57
Willie brought us empanadas. I ate five of them and they were
2:59:00
the best thing I've ever had. So that was very nice of him.
2:59:04
Awesome. And well, actually, he brought
2:59:06
us a lot of empanadas, right? There's like. 20 of them.
2:59:09
It was more than 20. Oh damn, I only had one.
2:59:12
Well, I wasn't that. We offered them to everyone.
2:59:17
I mean, hey, we finished all of them, so it was good.
2:59:18
Didn't have to put any in the fridge or anything like that.
2:59:21
It was also Chris's birthday this past week, so we had some
2:59:24
cake after after we had those, Yeah.
2:59:26
So it was good. We we watched some old Drift
2:59:29
Alliance videos on YouTube and just talked about the good old
2:59:33
days. And hopefully those days are not
2:59:35
over yet because I need to fix my car.
2:59:39
And yeah, that was pretty motivating last night, though
2:59:42
I'm not going to lie. All right.
2:59:44
Yeah, it's a good conversation. I like that.
2:59:48
All right. Well, Malcolm's a little under
2:59:49
the weathers. Lost my train of thought, you
2:59:53
know. Yeah, well, what do we got going
2:59:55
on lately? Thanks Will for stopping by.
2:59:58
Yeah. Thanks, Guy.
2:59:59
Appreciate it. Yeah, it was the first time you
3:00:02
met Will. No, not really.
3:00:03
No, I met him at the track a few times, yeah.
3:00:05
Never really talked to him though, unless what I mean when
3:00:09
he's talking to you. When he came by and and was,
3:00:12
yeah, at Blood Master Imitational.
3:00:14
Yeah, we should have got food that day too but we didn't.
3:00:17
Well, now, now we're going to have to.
3:00:19
Now he's, he's going to come find us and just throw chicken
3:00:21
at us and it's. Free bro.
3:00:23
What? Yeah, I think it depends on, you
3:00:25
know, it depends on who it is. But yeah, but he's a provider
3:00:29
man. He gives, he gives out food, he
3:00:33
gives out advice, gives out knowledge and on backtrack at
3:00:36
Club Loose. So if you guys are there, you'll
3:00:38
see him out there. Make sure you let him know that
3:00:40
you heard him on the podcast. As far as what's going on in the
3:00:43
shop this week, not much. Just trying to get this, just
3:00:49
working on the the expansion and doing all that painting, buying
3:00:54
sheetrock, shit like that. Oh, it's kind of annoying.
3:00:59
Damn. Yeah.
3:01:02
What about you, Malcolm? What you got going?
3:01:04
On same old, same old, we got new Merchant, the worldwide
3:01:08
hoodies and T-shirts. Pick them up if you haven't
3:01:11
already. They are very nice.
3:01:13
Who? The people who buy them give us
3:01:16
nice feedback. They they like the new logo?
3:01:18
Yeah, they like new collar. What's his face was wearing one?
3:01:23
Carl. Good old Carl.
3:01:24
He had both of them. He had a shirt on under that,
3:01:27
and he had the hoodie on. So you got to ask Carl for a
3:01:30
review on that hoodie. But it's the same hoodie we've
3:01:32
been using for the last two sweatshirts, so we've got
3:01:35
nothing but good feedback. On that, got R tech manifolds in
3:01:39
stock here for SRKA and 1J. Come grab them or order them.
3:01:47
If you'd like to come see him in person, feel free to come
3:01:49
through. We got a couple boxes here so.
3:01:54
And we have been getting some updates about Origin Arrow.
3:01:58
It looks like it's going to be a very dry summer.
3:02:02
Yeah, very dry. Yeah.
3:02:05
So you guys are going to have to get those orders in immediately
3:02:09
and most likely it's already out of stock and hasn't even landed
3:02:12
yet. And then the following container
3:02:14
looks to be pretty bare too. So the end of summer for getting
3:02:20
a fall container will be the one where you could really put in
3:02:25
your pre-order and get what you want to get.
3:02:27
Yeah so unfortunately origin stuff is all pre sold so if you
3:02:32
guys got your orders in early you'll be good.
3:02:34
But if you still haven't ordered anything and you just keep
3:02:36
waiting for a miracle to happen, you're probably screwed.
3:02:39
But check with us and we'll see what we can do.
3:02:43
Another option, if you need fenders, wings, hoods, we can
3:02:46
get them shipped from Japan directly.
3:02:48
Just check the product page on the website and then you'll see
3:02:51
the Ship from Japan option click that.
3:02:53
It's going to be more money obviously, but you'll probably
3:02:56
see that stuff within one to two months, so that's definitely a
3:02:59
faster option. And yeah, if you guys need your
3:03:02
cars worked on a lineman's tires, oil changes, anything,
3:03:06
let us know. We have a fully functional shop
3:03:08
running every day and it is still the slow season It's
3:03:12
starting to pick up, but it's March.
3:03:14
March is the last month of the slow season here, so we could
3:03:18
use all the work that you can send us.

3:04:50
cutting that one in half or something.
3:04:51
