What's going on guys? We're back with another episode
0:03
of the After Hours podcast. On today's episode, we have my
0:06
phone ringing. That's what we have.
0:10
You know what, we're going to keep this one because it's Tom
0:11
Azzaro calling me and I don't know why he calls me every 5
0:14
minutes, but here we go again. On today's episode we have OB
0:19
and Ryan of Team Brown. They are throwing an event today
0:23
actually as we record this. So they came in last night and
0:26
we we talked about their events that they've been throwing Team
0:30
Brown black dudes drift. They're cunning cahoots with
0:33
each other, but not really two separate entities.
0:37
But yeah, basically just just drift events that are made to
0:43
kind of make people feel a little bit more comfortable,
0:45
give something back to the the black community and drifting.
0:48
So if you guys are interested, make sure you follow them.
0:52
The events seem like they're amazing.
0:54
I hope that we can make it down there today, but given with how
0:59
much shit is going on in the shop right now, I don't know if
1:01
we're going to be able to do that.
1:02
But I know Carl's going out there, Eddie's out there.
1:04
We're going to try to film some stuff from the event.
1:09
Yeah. Like if you guys been listening
1:11
to this podcast for a while, me and Carl went out to California
1:13
to a Black Dudes Drift event out there and it was an amazing
1:16
time. And this one seems like it's
1:18
going to be just as good. So.
1:21
And it's at Club Loose, unfortunately, no spectators
1:24
this time around. But if you follow them and you
1:27
know, see the other events, they throw most, I think most if not
1:31
all of the other events had spectators.
1:32
So if you guys are interested in checking any of those out, just
1:35
make sure you follow them and keep an eye out.
1:38
They seem to do a lot of events. So I hope you guys enjoy this
1:41
one. We had a blast.
1:44
Yeah, make sure you check out our sponsors.
1:46
Thanks. This podcast is sponsored by
1:50
East Coast Drift School. East Coast Drift School is a
1:52
driving school focused on learning the art of drifting,
1:55
conveniently located at the greatest drifting facility in
1:58
the United States, Raceway Park in English Town, New Jersey.
2:01
Raceway Park currently has three tracks, so you will have a few
2:04
options to choose from when setting up your lessons.
2:06
Chris Knapp, who is part of the Raceway Park family, will be
2:09
your teacher as he guides you through car setup and technique.
2:12
If you are more of a seasoned driver, E Coaster School is also
2:15
the place where you can get some extra seat time.
2:17
Chris allows private track time when no instructing as well so
2:20
that you can get some tests and tune runs in before that big
2:22
event or competition you have coming up.
2:24
Instead of spending the night dodging the police with your
2:26
boys, consider signing up with E Coaster School the next time
2:29
they release their schedule. Chris releases schedule on the

This podcast is also sponsored by Automotive Specialty Wraps.
2:45
Looking to have your car ceramic coated or wrapped?
2:48
Look no further than Automotive Specialty Wraps.
2:50
ASW is a company specializing in paint protection, film vehicle
2:54
wraps, ceramic coatings, and window tinting.
2:57
Owned and operated by car enthusiasts and Drifters, their
2:59
technicians have over 10 years of experience in the industry.
3:02
They are located right off of Route 2O8IN Fairlawn, New
3:05
Jersey. Other than window tinting, which
3:06
is something we all need at some point, it was the ceramic
3:09
coating that really caught my attention back when they reached
3:11
out to us. This coating basically gives
3:13
your car's paint extra UV protection while also making it
3:16
shine. Wax only lasts a couple weeks at
3:19
most, but ceramic coating lasts for a year or even longer.
3:22
Honestly, this stuff is like witchcraft to me.
3:24
Julian came down here one day to explain how it works and how it
3:27
compares to wax and I was pretty stunned.
3:29
They perform a full two stage Polish to the car beforehand
3:33
just to make sure it's in perfect condition before
3:35
applying the coating. As mentioned, they also offer
3:37
window tinting and paint protection film installations.
3:40
Now everyone knows what window tinting is, but these guys offer
3:43
carbon or ceramic window tinting depending on your goals with the
3:46
vehicle. Paint protection film or PPF is
3:49
a great idea for those new vehicle owners that don't want
3:52
to watch their investment get littered with rock shifts.
3:55
Also keep in mind they are capable of getting liveries
3:57
designed and installed as well as full vehicle wraps.
4:00
From protecting your tow rigs exterior to full livery
4:03
installations on your drift car, they have you covered.
4:06

Faction Motorsports. Start saying it in like a joking
5:20
way. Like frankly saying say it the
5:23
way you say it. Like a movie.
5:25
She's going to be like a movie. Yeah.
5:28
When you start saying it like that, it's over.
5:31
No, no, no, he said. It's like gonna be.
5:33
I don't. Fucking know gonna be a.
5:35
Movie. No, that's that's not.
5:38
He said it's like going to. What like gonna be and he said
5:42
it rose sexy and he's like, it's gonna be a little.
5:46
It's not be, it's not gonna be like.
5:48
No, we're gonna, but we're gonna have such a good time tomorrow.
5:50
We've been proud to this for like for probably over a year.
5:54
I think we started prepping for this no since we had the last.
5:57
Event. We've been talking about it
5:59
since the 1st event. Yeah, you're right.
6:00
Which? One was the 1st.
6:01
One so US air what year? US air was 2019.
6:10
Frankie's a big year person, so you got to have.
6:11
It when was when was Judah born? Was born 21, so it was 21.
6:16
Yeah, yes, yes, 21. Yep.
6:19
So that would make sense. That would make sense.
6:20
Yeah. 21. We went to US Air we.
6:26
How did we get in contact with Simba?
6:28
Did we just tell him we're going to crash?
6:30
No, so how I remember what happened is we we're all talking
6:34
on the Facebook chat and you know, like you know, I've been.
6:36
He was in there, right? Yeah.
6:37
He. He was in there and you know,
6:39
I've always been on like my event plan and stuff.
6:41
That was, you know my thing, so you know when I.
6:43
You're the reason why shit happens, by the way.
6:45
If you're the event planner, you're the reason why.
6:47
A lot of, a lot of the reason why.
6:49
And so when I joined the Team Brown Facebook group, they, it
6:53
was just kind of a chat and like they were kind of hanging out.
6:56
And then when I got in there and kind of got involved and you
6:58
know, I was in there for a while but didn't really say anything
7:00
'cause I, I didn't drive. So like when I started driving I
7:03
got more active, started talking and then I was like, wait a
7:05
minute, like you guys like haven't done anything together.
7:08
Like y'all haven't met up like had an event like what's going
7:11
on here really? It was planned so you know how
7:14
like you take your car apart. Oh yeah, I know.
7:18
Frank, Frank, Frank is. Good.
7:19
As you take it apart for one thing and you're like, OK, I'm
7:21
going to fix this. And then like we were saying
7:24
earlier, yeah, I might as well. For me, when I'm planning stuff,
7:27
it has to kind of be perfect. So if I'm never feeling like
7:33
this is ideal, I don't execute. So our friend Jamar was like,
7:38
I'm about to just pull up, he's in Cali.
7:40
Wait. Jamar.
7:41
We know Jamar. Yes, I think so.
7:44
What's his last name? No, no, no, Xander.
7:46
Wait, what? What was that thing?
7:47
What? What was that thing that Yeah,
7:49
what was that thing? That.
7:50
He would say. Oh, he would.
7:51
Always. Say what?
7:52
Did a pod with him. Yeah.
7:53
Right bro? He pulled cream of weed out on
7:55
the pot. Bro, that's yeah.
7:57
That's yeah, he's OK. Yeah.
7:58
So that's Jamar. He's old school, bro.
8:00
So actually back then it was Black dudes.
8:02
We were collaborating with Black dudes Drift and we were just
8:06
saying like we need to get together, we need to do
8:07
something. Jamar was like, he's the mover
8:09
and shaker bro. Yeah, seemed that way.
8:11
He was like, I got a two car trailer.
8:13
My homie Joe is coming with me and we're going to just.
8:17
Go to eat. But even before that, like this
8:19
is I think the beautiful part about the 1st event was we were
8:22
talking about what are we going to do, what are we going to do
8:24
and somebody drops that Club Fr was having an event on on June
8:31
19th. And.
8:33
And it was actually the first, you know, federally recognized
8:37
Juneteenth. And I was like, holy shit,
8:40
that's perfect. We absolutely got to go.
8:42
We're pulling up. We're we're we're crashing club
8:44
Fr. We're going to club Fr on June
8:46
19th. And so Jamar was like, well, I'm
8:49
pulling up. He gets on his two car from
8:51
Cali. Simba was like and.
8:53
Then to be honest, we hit Simba and that was before I even knew
8:57
Simba was club Fr. I knew that he was involved
9:00
because he was in the chat and we were like yo, we want to club
9:02
Fr All right, cool, I'll put you on.
9:04
And so like, we gave him a bunch of names and he put our names on
9:07
like before the registration even went up.
9:08
And, you know, we were all in and we started planning to get
9:11
out there so. Dudes that we had known forever,
9:14
yeah, that we had, you know how it goes, that we had never met
9:17
in person, flew in. Dudes that weren't driving, they
9:21
flew in. Dudes that we're driving drove
9:23
from different states. It was it was amazing.
9:26
We got a the air being This is 21. 2021 and I think that that
9:31
speaks waves just because I was my next question was going to be
9:33
like well not question but observation is the fact that you
9:36
guys are all coming from different places yeah like this
9:39
is not just a oh we're all like a couple hours away from the
9:42
track yeah let's meet up no you guys are coming from around the
9:44
country different places like you guys are from North Carolina
9:47
yeah I'm. Like from PA, but I moved to
9:49
North Carolina. That's How I Met Ryan.
9:51
We got people in North Carolina, I mean, Arizona, different parts
9:56
of California, yeah, Northern and Southern Pennsylvania, New
10:00
York, Jersey, Florida, Boston, Boston.
10:04
Yeah, Northern. Wisconsin Heart's in the group.
10:09
He he's in Georgia now. Yeah.
10:12
And different levels of people too, you know, people that are
10:14
new people that have been in forever.
10:16
Like it's just, it's really, it was a organic coming together.
10:21
One of the things that I love to tell, like people that we
10:23
introduced to the group, is everything that you need exists
10:26
within the group. There's literally nothing that
10:28
you that you need within drifting that doesn't exist
10:30
within Team Brown. We have access to every major
10:33
drift organization. Except for some bad, bad bitch.
10:38
Yeah, we don't got none of that over here at.
10:41
We like we have access to every major drift organization.
10:44
No, I'm lying. Brianna.
10:45
Listen, listen. We.
10:47
We got, we got some every major drift organization, we have
10:51
major companies literally. Anything that we got some.
10:56
We got one How did Team Brown start?
10:59
How did his Facebook group start like?
11:01
What was it originally? I think that's I started.
11:03
Team Brown in 2008, 08/08 so I was in middle.
11:09
School. I was telling Frankie earlier I
11:12
started going to Club Loose in 05 and you guys have had Reese
11:17
and Willy on. I started St. drifting with
11:20
those guys back in the day and I started going to Club Loose 05
11:24
and The funny thing is they used to make fun of me for going to
11:27
Club Loose. They're like, oh, you.
11:28
Just shut up. Really.
11:29
Real talk, real talk. Hey, Will.
11:31
They're like that's. Caught you bro.
11:33
It wasn't really Will. It was my Reese.
11:35
It was Reese and my boy B, you know, the Five Star Guys.
11:38
It's like maybe hang out with the white boys, but I used to do
11:44
like track driving before and. Someone's phone is on if you
11:46
could try to. Is that me?
11:47
It's me. I don't know.
11:49
Excuse me? You both got droids, so there's
11:51
some weird shit going on. I know.
11:52
It sounded crazy. I'm not important enough to get
11:56
to get that. Phone's crazy.
11:58
That one looks like it would take me to another planet.
12:00
It is. Yeah, the one with the foldable
12:02
screen. That shit's crazy.
12:05
There it is. Pot in a pot.
12:08
That's crazy. You're watching the bottom.
12:09
You know I could. So Reese is telling you not to
12:12
go to club? Yeah, they were.
12:13
They were making fun of me and then.
12:15
Out of good love, I'm sure. That's how we, you know, how he
12:18
supposed people do. You make fun of each other,
12:20
whatever. But it's it's out of love.
12:22
Like, you know, we really had a pretty tight group there.
12:24
And then I started going to Club Loose.
12:26
They came shortly after. Yeah.
12:28
You know, Petty was like, you guys look like dumb asses in the
12:32
street. You don't know what you're
12:33
doing. Like, come to Club Loose and
12:35
I'll teach you how to drive. And so when I started going to
12:39
the track, it was literally me and maybe one other black dude.
12:43
It's just not something that we really do or did back then.
12:47
It's just a lot of people now. But I wanted a way to connect
12:51
with other black guys. Well, not even black guys, just
12:54
like anybody. That wasn't the the status quo,
12:57
basically. So I started Team Brown Lauren
13:00
Twitch was like one of the first members in 2008.
13:05
And back then I used to e-mail people who who I thought might
13:09
response. So it was like Tony Brocopia, I
13:11
don't know if you remember. Brocchio Hoppa.
13:13
How do you say it? Brocchio Hoppa, Brocchio Hoppa.
13:15
He used to drive a first. Black first black FT driver.
13:19
Oh yeah. Yep, he used to drive a Mustang.
13:21
Tommy Sewell. Tommy Sewell Sewell.
13:24
Yep, that name sounds he drove a 86.
13:26
NFT driver, yeah. I think he's half Japanese, half
13:30
half black. Tommy's Tommy's still still
13:32
around. Actually, he's he's in the he.
13:33
Was in the Yeah, he's. In the he's in the chat.
13:35
Yep. Yeah, and I used this is when
13:37
Hurt worked at Njuku. Njuku.
13:40
And I used to e-mail him. I felt so unimportant.
13:43
I would introduce myself every time I emailed him.
13:46
Like, yo, I'm that dude with the, you know, other black guy.
13:48
You Remember Me? I used to DM Simba.
13:54
Yeah. And I used to ask him, like, how
13:56
to do stuff. He would never respond.
13:59
And so I just, I started the group and then I found Black
14:02
dudes drift and it was already established, you know, it was
14:05
the Cali Cali group. And so I was like.
14:08
That was pretty. Early too I.
14:09
Guess yeah, that's how I found it.
14:11
You know, I saw Lex King, he was doing competitions over there.
14:14
So, you know, I started hitting him up and when I saw that they
14:18
were already established, I just kind of put Team Brown to the
14:21
side, but kind of collabs. So the earliest Black dudes
14:25
drift stickers were Team Brown stickers, and it had the hashtag
14:29
Black dudes dress. So as we progressed and, you
14:34
know, we started to grow, then we went back to Team Brown.
14:37
So that's really, yeah. That's pretty cool.
14:40
Yeah. So.
14:41
So was it like a legitimate team or was it more like a we all?
14:45
Team in name. OK.
14:46
It's like a club. No, it was 100% like a
14:48
collective, just like, yeah. And, you know, I feel like now
14:51
what it's kind of grown to is like, you can decide that you
14:54
want to go to a track and know that you're not going to be
14:57
there by yourself. Yeah.
14:59
Like one of my favorite things to see is like the group has
15:01
grown is to see like guys that I've introduced to each other,
15:04
like meeting up to go to track days to go to track days with
15:07
each other or. Like side missions?
15:08
Yeah, like side missions like. You.
15:10
Facilitated that you facilitated that connection.
15:13
Yeah, but it's super cool to like see guys link up and like,
15:16
oh, you know, you know, they're going they're going to linear
15:18
together or like these guys are going, you know, you know, going
15:22
to Evergreen together. These guys are going to summit
15:24
point together. And the only connection that
15:26
they have is, you know, the introduced introduction from
15:29
Team Brown, that kind of brotherhood.
15:31
And it's, it's been super cool because like when a lot of guys
15:33
show up, it's like. Instant brotherhood, instant
15:35
party. And it's funny, instant connect.
15:38
So other other people, other black people or other brown
15:42
people will see us at the track and be like, I've never seen
15:47
that many black people drifting together.
15:49
And they will come and talk to us and we've made introductions
15:52
that way. So we went to Nappy.
15:55
What was it called? Drift Symphony.
15:56
Yeah, Drift Symphony in February.
15:57
Right in February. Where was that at?
15:59
This is in. Atlanta OK, so you know Nappy
16:02
boy Drift? Yeah, the automotive.
16:04
Yeah, Nappy Boy Automotive. Nappy Boy Automotive, they have
16:06
their. T Pain and.
16:07
Yeah, it hurt. Yeah, Co own it.
16:09
So they put on their first event.
16:11
Uh huh. I have never seen that many
16:13
black people at a drift event ever.
16:17
And I'm not laughing out in disrespect, I'm laughing because
16:19
I'm like. Why is that weird personally?
16:21
Like we don't. You know what?
16:22
I'm saying like you don't really think about it that way.
16:25
Like it? Could be all it was like for me
16:28
it was spectators yeah yeah people pulling up to watch the
16:32
event because of the pool that T pain has yeah yeah T pain post
16:36
on his Instagram that he's having an event in Atlanta yeah
16:40
people coming they. Just showed up and all different
16:43
types of black people, yeah. Like, you know, there's, there's
16:45
skater black people, there's Motorsports black people.
16:47
Then there's just, you know, all different kinds and just the
16:51
variety of folks that I saw there.
16:53
It was so dope. You know, just seeing that,
16:55
especially that's. Really nuts that T pain like
16:58
really has that kind of reach because I've had a, I've had a
17:01
Co worker. They got they they might not be
17:05
part of team Brown. They know T pain though, yeah.
17:07
And then yeah. And so.
17:09
They're like, oh, T pain does that drifting.
17:12
I'm like. Yeah, T pain probably introduced
17:13
a lot. Hilariously.
17:15
To that polo Rick Carter like. And.
17:18
That whole, that whole fucking drama, Oh my God.
17:21
Shout out George Grove, yeah. There's people that they're
17:24
probably. Like all that art in the cars
17:26
that were. Watching that, it's crazy, yeah,
17:29
but the type of like, pressure. That whole shit, man.
17:31
It's crazy. Yeah.
17:33
It's got to be a lot of pressure for him as I saw him talking at
17:38
that competition he did in California, and he was saying
17:41
like, he feels a lot of pressure because people, he thinks people
17:45
might see him as just a rich dude just trying it out.
17:49
But he actually loves drifting. He's super passionate about it.
17:52
Yeah, he's very passionate about it and he's actually pretty
17:54
good. Like I think he chased me for
17:59
like 2 laps and he's he's pretty sad.
18:01
For how long has he been doing this?
18:03
He's probably got seat time, like probably less inspiring.
18:06
Yeah, but like, but I but I probably driving for real, like
18:09
probably a couple of years at this point.
18:11
I mean to be honest, like that's the highlight of my year so far
18:15
is being at drift Symphony a linear and I'm on the track.
18:19
I've been fighting with the car all day.
18:20
Finally got the car like, you know, running right and I'm on
18:23
the course running bank accidentally for the first time
18:26
ever and I'm coming off the bank and I'm about to shut it down to
18:31
come off track to check my cars and I see T pain in the Mustang
18:35
in my rearview mirror and like like these dudes on the fence he
18:40
was. About to come off track.
18:42
I was like. Throw it back, throw it back in.
18:47
So like I've got this real like, shoot a short click of me coming
18:49
off the bank, smoking, lighting it up and T pain coming off
18:52
behind me. But yeah, like, it's super cool
18:54
to like have, you know, kind of that representation in that
18:57
world. If we keep talking about T pain
18:59
I'm like what the fuck we? Are talking about T pain.
19:01
It's weird. He's literally.
19:02
Drifting with T pain. Yeah, but that's how mainstream
19:05
drifting has become like. Well, that too, Yeah, yeah, it's
19:09
it's got reaching on its own like you.
19:11
Know not to. Mention it's not only T pain,
19:13
there's do you know how many fucking drift cards there are?
19:15
Music videos? Yeah, and a lot of that has to
19:17
do with Sebastian. And Mike, I was just like, we
19:19
have me. Was it?
19:22
Me and Hurt were in Adm with rampage jacks.
19:25
There you go. Giving him drift car advice hurt
19:29
hurt was making fun of him 'cause his car was the.
19:31
UFC. Fighter.
19:32
Yes, bro, he posted it. He posted it as fourteen.
19:35
Yeah. And we were.
19:36
Wasn't he just on Rogan? Yeah, we.
19:38
Posted it was 14 I think so and we tapped hurt.
19:41
We're like hurt. You should like go.
19:43
Go talk to him. Go talk to him and hurt was like
19:45
alright. He was looking for help and he
19:46
was in Cali and I was like, bro, you know, we got, we got to do
19:50
it in Cali. I was like, you know, he knows
19:51
what he's doing. I hurt.
19:52
Pulse. Off so I hit hurt on this side.
19:54
I was like, yo, I'm dealing with rampage.
19:57
This sounds so. This sounds ridiculous.
20:01
Ribbon. He'll bust.
20:03
The door, he'll break it. And we were I know what the
20:07
video time this is happening. This is that rampage.
20:09
Yeah, that's. Why you said that?
20:10
I'm like, no, it's not the dude who fucking yeah slams the door
20:14
then breaks it and happens breaks it off the hinges and.
20:16
Shit. So when hurt is like making fun
20:18
of his car, I didn't join in. I'm like, he's gonna be sure.
20:21
Oh no, no, no, no. Oh yeah, Hell no.
20:24
Right. But just think about it like
20:26
someone like that is into drifting now, You know what I
20:29
mean? Like it's just the amount of
20:32
like car commercials that I see now that feature drifting when
20:36
it was kind of like, man, how would I put it?
20:40
It was like not antisocial, but it was.
20:43
It wasn't accepted. It wasn't.
20:44
Yeah. No, it wasn't.
20:45
Yeah, at all. So I.
20:46
Don't even. I mean, I guess it is now right?
20:48
Yeah, for sure. I think so for.
20:50
Sure, but you're never really they.
20:51
Definitely hate on it. So like, if you go to a grip
20:53
day, yeah, and your car resembles anything like a drift
20:56
car, they will make fun of what's happening.
20:58
So, but here's The thing is, even that's changing slightly
21:00
because you remember the last time we were in Atlanta and we
21:03
drove through that grip day. That's right, with the drift
21:05
car, it was actually after Nappy Boy.
21:07
Yeah, there was a we were at Lanier and rode Atlanta across
21:10
the street. The next day they were having a
21:12
grip day and we just went on the way home, just kind of stop by
21:15
and say what's up our boy just. He knew somebody.
21:17
Knew somebody over there, so we just went over to say what's up
21:20
we had the drift cars on the trailer, yeah cleared the whole
21:22
paddock, the whole paddocks coming out of all those drift
21:24
cars. We were over there yesterday
21:26
watching you guys like, oh, like you guys put on such a good
21:29
show. So even that stigma of the.
21:32
Drifting is too much fun, yeah. Bro it's what everyone wanted to
21:36
do. Like when you watch those old TV
21:38
shows from like the 70s and they hit at the corner running away
21:42
from. The Yeah, and they're drifting.
21:43
That's what everyone wanted to do like and I remember the first
21:46
ready set drift event, I think it was the first one, we were
21:50
doing a road course and on the the Oval they had like a Ferrari
21:55
day or something and we were actually in the paddock.
21:59
Ferrari guys were on one side and we were on the other side
22:03
and at lunchtime the Ferrari guys, like we wanted to go look
22:06
at their cars, but like they don't respect us.
22:08
They came over and we're looking at our cars and talking to us
22:11
and I was just like, wow, maybe Ferrari guys are cool.
22:14
Maybe it's just drifting is. Cool.
22:17
I don't know. Yeah, I don't know.
22:19
It's it was always like drifting is kind of just like the joke of
22:23
Motorsports. That's what I remember it and to
22:26
be honest it I don't. Know.
22:28
No, I mean the money. It's like it's so easy.
22:31
I feel like we're just. We're having the most fun at it
22:33
anymore, but the. Most fun and and you look the
22:36
fucking coolest, yeah. Depending on what you're
22:40
calling, some right? Yeah, that's the media guys and
22:42
yeah, definitely how you're but. But from a, from a fun, cool
22:46
aspect, there is to me, if you're coming into a corner and
22:49
you, you aggressively initiate into a corner, you're like, Oh
22:53
my God, I'm drifting like and then in the even in the car,
22:58
outside the car. How the car looks.
23:00
Visually like. I'm in that same camp, just.
23:03
Like I feel like it could look real dumb.
23:05
Yeah, not everybody is of that opinion and I.
23:09
Really. You think it looks bad
23:10
sometimes? No, no, no.
23:12
I think it's how your car looks. Oh, you know what I mean.
23:14
There's there's. Bring back style people that.
23:16
Like let's say it's a Fox Body Mustang with no bumpers.
23:18
On it. Let's thank you.
23:20
Cancel Delete. Scott like no.
23:21
Subscribe She's. Not follow a.
23:23
Straight pipe and then and then 350.
23:25
Like I would follow unsubscribe I feel.
23:27
Like the group drivers are not gonna be like yeah, that's cool,
23:29
but if they see like a really nice Japanese style yeah looking
23:33
car come in with vinyl on it. Yeah Whoa, what is that?
23:36
That looks interesting. Just and then.
23:38
You see, that's something that looks cool, like universally,
23:42
you know, it's one of the things I experienced after, you know,
23:45
shout out to my boy Obi for, you know, helping me stop my car
23:48
and, you know, getting everything together.
23:49
But you know. Fantastic.
23:53
But having like a well styled car, a good looking car, you get
23:58
stop people in the gas station, you get people like you're
24:02
towing it. You got people like pacing you
24:03
on the highway looking at your car.
24:04
So like please. And they're just interested in
24:07
doing it, yeah. Bring back styling and drifting.
24:09
It's why we all got. Here, OK, but here's here's a
24:12
way that I've been trying to think of differently.
24:14
Somebody, somebody within the past couple of months was like,
24:17
yo, why do you think small think so like crab mentality like if I
24:22
can't have it, you can't have it type of deal.
24:24
That's a shitty way to think it is.
24:25
Yeah, unfortunately that's how a lot of people think.
24:27
But what does that? What does that mean though, in
24:29
this aspect? In the style aspect, watch this.
24:31
Hold on. It's like if some what I'm
24:35
looking for now is or not what I'm looking for.
24:38
But what I try to notice now is if somebody tried, if you put
24:42
some sort of effort in, if you put, if you tried your best,
24:45
your, this is your iteration of what you're trying to do.
24:48
And, and this is what it is, Then I gotta, I gotta, I gotta
24:53
have some sort of different respect.
24:55
I'm not, I'm a little trying to be a little quicker to not brush
24:59
it off to the wayside right 'cause like I got tons of
25:02
friends where where I might not like their car necessarily, but
25:05
there seems to be a purpose behind it and if they believe in
25:08
it, then I'll believe in it too. The effort shows though I'm I'm.
25:11
A big proponent of if there is, if there is a if you put
25:16
yourself into what it is you're doing this, this applies to
25:18
anything. This applies if you're a rapper,
25:20
if you're a singer, if you're an artist, if you know, if you're a
25:23
drifter, if you put yourself into what it is that you're
25:27
doing, it always comes through. Like when I like when I stopped
25:30
my car, I, I was off the Internet for like a year.
25:34
Like I didn't want to post. I didn't post it.
25:36
I didn't ask anybody's opinion. I didn't want to know what
25:38
anybody thought. The only time that anybody saw
25:40
it is when it was done. And it's because.
25:44
Doing a lot of those, I start to hate my customers because
25:49
they'll be like make my car look like 326 power.
25:54
What's his name? Yamaguchi.
25:56
Yeah, no, that's. Haraguchi.
25:58
Haraguchi. Anything with art?
25:59
Right. They're like just copy this.
26:01
And I actually have in my my contract that they signed like
26:04
I'm not copying anything. So when I did his, it was
26:07
refreshing because like he was really hot on Black Panther back
26:11
then. So he was like, still am I
26:13
wanted to do this. It was refreshing.
26:16
But what I was saying is like the effort shows and copying
26:22
stuff is like a shortcut. So someone may have like a
26:24
technically good looking car, but it may be missing the soul.
26:29
You know, they didn't actually put their own personality, their
26:32
own flair effort into it. And sometimes there's like we
26:36
were talking about like beat up drift cars.
26:38
Yeah. That started off looking good.
26:40
They still look. That's the best.
26:42
You can tell that that's. Why Carl's car still looks OK
26:45
right now? Right.
26:47
He didn't say good, he said. OK, not because what's funny is
26:50
this. When I was coming home from work
26:51
they literally just got out of their.
26:53
Car. Yeah, like I was pulling up and
26:55
I seen a white dirt juice SUV. Yeah.
26:58
I was like. Carl's Carl's car looks like a
27:00
properly drifted yes. Car.
27:02
Dude, the side skirt in the back flatter and flatter your.
27:06
Arrow needs to be replaced eventually, but for right now
27:09
it's fine. That's what the fucking I asked
27:12
be doing. One of my favorites is, like,
27:14
Simba, you know, I think he does a refresh like, every three
27:17
years or something like that. So it'd be thrashed by, like,
27:20
the second year. But you could still tell.
27:22
Yeah. You could still tell like.
27:23
Style, Style always comes through.
27:25
And I think that's the advice that I can give to anybody, like
27:28
trying to style a car is stop asking your boys like what you
27:31
should do. Stop asking your boys like, oh,
27:33
should I do this or should I do this?
27:35
Not do what it is that you like, what it is you think.
27:38
If you like will, who cares that nobody else?
27:39
Like and if you don't know what you like, do some research.
27:42
Yeah, yeah, like I literally have Wetscransvishnus on my
27:45
drift card. Nobody does that.
27:47
Like, but it was just because that's what I wanted to do.
27:50
It used to be forums, but now I think it's Instagrams, yeah.
27:53
No 100%. Yeah, and that's where you find.
27:55
Well, the way that I remember earlier in my driveway when I
27:58
when I met Ryan and Obie in my driveway earlier, they they
28:02
pointed out the wings. To his house.
28:03
They would they would they do? I mean, I'm not going to say how
28:07
you could have got in, but but like, I thought Daryl just told
28:10
you guys that. Like, I thought you guys were
28:12
waiting inside like already like just hanging out.
28:14
But anyway, when they pulled up, they were like, oh, I like the
28:18
wing. Yeah.
28:18
And yeah, right. This is what I said threw me
28:20
back. This is what I said.
28:22
I was like, man, this is thank you.
28:24
Like this is, but this is just really what I wanted as a kid.
28:28
This is what I pictured that the part.
28:30
Is the part that some people will see it and go.
28:33
I don't like. That I don't like that.
28:34
I know some people will see it and they go I like that, but
28:37
who? That's.
28:38
What I'm saying, I don't really. Like but it's funny though
28:40
because that one item is it is the one that will separate
28:44
people who like that old style. 100% but then I take it all.
28:47
People that are students of that old style, like when I saw it I
28:51
remember I was telling you like this was the first mod that I
28:54
ordered for. My.
28:54
First car, yeah, it was completely stock and I ordered
28:57
that wing. I was like, I always wanted that
28:59
wing, but yeah. But there is a fine line to walk
29:03
between not caring because sometimes you need to listen.
29:06
Some people don't have, that's what.
29:08
I mean, that's why when he's saying all this like good
29:10
hearted stuff, I'm like, yeah, but there's still people out
29:13
there that we're not going to see eye to eye with.
29:16
Right? Totally.
29:16
And that's fine. And they should be able to do
29:18
their own thing. No, Yeah.
29:19
And that's fine. That's fine.
29:20
But I'm not going to say it's. OK too.
29:22
No, yeah, your shit looks ugly. Like club loose and don't come
29:26
to the track with black wheels. That's that's.
29:29
I came to the track with black wheels like.
29:31
Literally, yeah. I told that shit to heart.
29:33
What are you talking? About rears, I got a.
29:35
Pair. For the rears.
29:36
Yeah, I've never been to Cub loose on black wheels.
29:39
I don't give a fuck. Here's the thing.
29:40
Here's the thing, spray paint. Here's the thing.
29:42
Spray painted silver. Before I.
29:44
First of all that. Shit was funny as hell in the
29:46
world. It was hilarious no matter what.
29:47
Yeah. That's really funny.
29:49
So that that doesn't like I love that doesn't change.
29:51
But my spares were five Ziggens that were black FN.
29:55
Yeah, yeah. And.
29:57
I'm like, I'm not paying them so I'm just going to run them.
30:00
But that's how I am though. I don't give a fuck what anyone
30:02
says anyway. So but and then I remember Josh,
30:05
Josh from Front St. one one time, 1 iteration of his car was
30:09
all black. With black.
30:11
Model 5 black tints black, everything's black and I'm like
30:15
damn, this thing's crazy. Looking.
30:17
That's kind of hard. Yeah.
30:18
Like that. Yeah, he came to that.
30:19
He. Probably this.
30:20
Is about the tone on tone look like that.
30:22
That's one on tone. Like I had a white on white
30:24
Lexus IS250. Like white on white goes, black
30:29
on black goes, there's something.
30:30
Yellow and yellow. Well, yeah, well, that can also
30:33
go whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. The thing?
30:35
Is I, This is not. A real music video.
30:38
What it's all about the execution for sure It is, for
30:41
sure. And Josh from Front Street
30:43
obviously knows what he's doing. So the car looked good.
30:45
Yeah, but normally you would think black on black everything.
30:49
We haven't had Josh on here in a minute.
30:50
Can't you keep I I should come? Back.
30:52
Yeah, it was Josh. He's just going to make fun of
30:54
me. 1000%. French St. and faction y'all too
30:59
man. Y'all were really owning stuff
31:01
for a while and made us proud man.
31:04
Like you know, it was kind of like room for the Eagles seeing
31:08
you guys go to. Thanks.
31:09
Man, I appreciate that. I remember doing that and
31:12
everyone saying stuff back home when we were there and it felt.
31:15
Good. And it's funny because I
31:16
remember the first final bout, there's a lot of criticism for
31:18
the driving. Yeah, they were saying the
31:20
driving wasn't up to park and then it jumped for the 2nd and
31:25
it's seeing y'all like just run that.
31:27
One on doors and that's on. Doors turn that.
31:29
Is. Yeah, it's not.
31:30
A good Turner than than people realize.
31:32
I can't wait bro. Carl, that's his dream.
31:35
Dude, you got to do it, man. It is He's.
31:37
Going to yell at me they. Call it a roller coaster.
31:40
Roller coaster of love, dude. I've.
31:43
That drive is brutal to get up. Elevation changing, elevation
31:46
change and drifting is probably the coolest thing that I've
31:48
experienced. I I think I've never experienced
31:51
it so drastic. Yeah, no, it's such a short.
31:54
Yeah, Not being able to see the next term because you're in the
31:56
Valley and not being able to see where you're going next.
31:59
I wanna be like oh bad. Right.
32:01
Man sitting in the course on the lock, you know, foot down like
32:05
on the limiter and drifting uphill with all the grip in the
32:08
world like if. Anybody is jaded with driving,
32:11
go drive USA. I'm telling you that track.
32:14
And it's not even fast too. It's.
32:16
Like no it's not. It feels fast.
32:18
That one section is well and the roller coaster part feels.
32:21
Fast, fast, dude, I wanna do this part.
32:23
Yeah, it goes down then up on. 'Cause the way you're really
32:26
supposed to hit that turn is. Like you come out of your seat
32:28
almost like it's. I learned so much like that,
32:31
that one event 'cause you know, remember we talked about like
32:33
that was my my first event that wasn't a parking lot event.
32:37
Yeah, it was going to your first track, going to USA in your
32:41
first track and with with mind you with a brand new painted
32:45
kitted wrapped yeah wheels. Like Dragway, his anxiety.
32:51
Like car was Brett right now? You got something to lose.
32:54
Though banking new, yeah. And then so I'm going like,
32:57
'cause they have like the, the, you know, the beginner course
33:00
and then they have like the roller coaster course.
33:02
Yeah, I'm going downhill into that, You know, that on camber
33:06
left, like on the beginner chorus.
33:09
And I kept slamming on brakes right before 'cause I'm scared
33:11
I'm gonna. Get you too much medicine right?
33:13
There and I'm gonna shoot over the other side and Simon comes
33:16
and tells comes Simon comes and tell me he's like stop breaking
33:19
just let the track grab you I'm like bro shut up yeah, it's.
33:22
Like the track is. Not going to grab me.
33:24
I'm going to jump this fence. No and I'm gonna go into the
33:26
woods. Simon is also crazy.
33:28
He's like just stop breaking and let the track grab you.
33:30
And when I finally listen to him, the feeling of having the
33:33
track actually grabbed me was. It's like drifting uphill.
33:36
The wildest thing ever like it just grabs you and like it like
33:39
it's almost like I didn't even turn the wheel like you just
33:42
grabbed me and turned me around there's.
33:43
So many good turns on that track, and they're all slow.
33:46
No, I just want to give them the best show that right there
33:49
before the balcony, right there at the wall, down at the bottom.
33:53
I like the one those three to be perfect.
33:56
I guess they call it advance when.
33:58
So you come down, you fly up that mountain, you do mountain,
34:01
you do that right turn. It really does.
34:04
And then you go into that next section and you gotta extend it
34:07
like that. Yeah, it's real slow, but it's
34:10
just fun. And that reverse too.
34:12
A lot of people loop right there because it's kind of difficult
34:16
to do, but it's funny, like what you were saying, Simba said.
34:19
Back in the day I was talking to Petty at at E Town.
34:23
I was like, man, I'm having trouble.
34:24
He was like just stop being a pussy, go faster.
34:26
That's always that's what he's go to.
34:29
I tried it and it worked. That's gonna be on his
34:31
tombstone. Yeah, but E Town this and E Town
34:34
are my, I've driven a lot of places I haven't been like to,
34:38
you know, California or anything, but these are my two
34:40
favorite tracks. Because I haven't.
34:41
Driven up Granges up there when we went Apple Valley.
34:44
I wanted. Yeah, I wanted.
34:45
That was weird like that. Where we got to hang out with
34:48
that at with at the first BDD event, Yeah.
34:51
And then once I got to see that, I was like, did you drive?
34:56
Yeah, I drove the little rental. Rental.
34:59
Yeah, I was going down the street.
35:00
It would be, yeah, like don't put in the third.
35:05
I told him no. Third year.
35:06
I was like, okay dude, didn't Daryl get in?
35:10
And he was like, fucking. He was doing some slick.
35:12
Shit, but you gotta. Talk about what he did by the.
35:14
End of the day, Daryl was running those rentals like from
35:17
like from everything. He rented like 20-30.
35:20
He was. Like he was like running those
35:22
rentals. He like basically told them like
35:24
how to improve the business and like improve the cars like Daryl
35:28
like. Dude, that's you know, Daryl
35:31
does that shit. I've noticed this is like the
35:34
the I don't even know how many times Daryl has done this, but
35:37
like if Daryl gets put in a situation and no one's run it
35:39
and he fucking runs it, that's good.
35:41
Yeah, it's because he doesn't have that, that gene that says
35:45
chill you. Know what?
35:48
That is, that's the Haitian in him.
35:50
Yeah. That's.
35:53
That's the Haitian I'm going. To be out there till 10 PMI told
35:56
him like yo 10:00 PM is kind of the cut off time here because of
35:58
noise. Bro yo with 959 keep going.
36:00
Yeah, that's right there. That's the Zoe in him.
36:03
Yeah. Really, I gained a lot of
36:06
respect for him watching him get rid of his perfectly good
36:09
working drift car and build that store.
36:12
Like the discipline it took to like, not drive and get that
36:16
done for such a young guy like that was dude.
36:19
How can we? Talk about why he did that.
36:23
Dude. We bullied him bro.
36:25
He wanted. It he wanted.
36:27
It though. I was on the.
36:28
Sidelines watching and I was the.
36:30
Friend, that's all I wanted to do was put.
36:32
A lot of moving parts all. I wanted him to do was put a
36:34
tail light back in the car. That's all I wanted.
36:36
That's how that's how I was crazy.
36:38
The tail light is crazy. He went down to Alabama and
36:41
melted the tail light out of that thing and.
36:43
That was that was one of the best trips.
36:45
Yeah. So that's the trip that we met
36:47
Daryl that so we did midpaw. 1. Midpaw 1 Yep.
36:51
And you know that's a long haul from New York.
36:53
He was. He was the first friend of mine
36:55
who was like, yeah, we're going to go to Mid Pond.
36:58
I want to tell you from a outsider's perspective at this
37:01
time. What are you?
37:02
Doing because he's like, yeah, we're gonna go meet up with my
37:04
boy. Like go check it out like this.
37:05
Is going we're going with driving 17 what it was like it
37:09
was 16? 16 hours and he's like strangers
37:11
and and yeah. He didn't notice it at.
37:13
That time he was he didn't have Laurent's trailer yet.
37:16
He he was U hauling it? Yep.
37:19
It was him and Joe. It was him and Joe and I think
37:21
somebody Dame his brother. No, Dane wasn't there.
37:25
Dane came to mid pawn too. Oh it is too yeah man.
37:28
But the first one him and Joe went down U hauling it 16 hours.
37:32
I was like, Are you sure about this?
37:35
He went. It's gotta be more than sixteen,
37:36
I think. You.
37:37
How far was it for us? 'Cause it was.
37:39
I did 16 from my house. Maybe 16?
37:41
It might, It might be. Oh, 'cause it's.
37:43
Mid pawn, but you like so and I'll tell this story 'cause I
37:46
think I think I would, no. No, no, no.
37:48
That's all I was saying is that from an outside perspective, I
37:50
was like, dude, you're crazy for this.
37:52
You're going how far, right? And then turns out he had a
37:56
really great time, and that's when he met all.
37:59
So I'll tell you, I'll tell you what, the part that you missed
38:01
that he maybe didn't tell you. And then one of the things that,
38:04
like, I feel like it's important to talk about this, 'cause he
38:05
always talked to me about me, about this, It was something I
38:08
said to him that made him feel comfortable doing it, right?
38:11
He hit me before the event and he was like, yo, like, you know,
38:16
I just don't know. It's a long way to go.
38:18
Like, you know, like, you know, the bread, Like, I think I can
38:21
get down there, but like, I just don't know if I'm gonna have
38:24
everything I need. And what I said to him again,
38:26
silence. Get it.
38:27
Get down here. We're not gonna let you starve.
38:29
So that's all you. Got to.
38:31
All you got to do is get here. Said that to me like a couple of
38:33
days ago. All you got to do.
38:34
Is that you guys said that to? Him, all you got to do is get
38:36
here and we'll handle everything else.
38:38
He literally said that to me a couple days ago because I was
38:41
like, how are you going to no, don't let, how are you going to
38:43
let people stay on an Airbnb? Like I don't know anybody, but I
38:47
I was like, how are you going to let them stay in stay at an
38:49
Airbnb where you don't live that far from the track.
38:51
Just tell them fuck the neighbors.
38:53
They're going to have like a couple of days worth of trailers
38:55
in the street. I don't care.
38:56
Like tell them. And he told me that exact
39:00
situation where he was like, they told me the same thing and
39:04
I'm just trying to do, he wants to do he's probably he wants to
39:08
do his best to make sure y'all are feeling comfortable.
39:09
What I want to thank you all for even coming up here.
39:12
Yeah, thanks for having. Us like shit sake.
39:13
So I got to say #1 I feel like that's a drift mentality.
39:18
So I've, I've participated in a lot of different Motorsports,
39:21
but the camaraderie and drifting is second to none.
39:25
You know, like the amount of effort that I've seen people put
39:28
into cars that aren't theirs at the track to help people is, you
39:33
know, it's it's unbelievable. And like when we started talking
39:37
about doing this event, when I the first time I mentioned it to
39:40
Petty, he just he went off. He was, he was probably more
39:44
excited than we were. Him, him and Tim Petty came up
39:48
with the theme, which is white man can't jump.
39:51
I don't know if we came up with the cookout together or was that
39:54
us? I think that we came up we.
39:55
Came up with the cookout, but bro, he was like we could dress
39:58
like character for white man can jump.
40:00
He was so excited and he was. He actually said to me.
40:04
I hope he doesn't mind me saying this.
40:05
He was like, I'm getting burned out on drifting and this is
40:09
exactly I think he's. Probably felt that way for
40:11
years. He has to bro the amount of work
40:13
that these dudes have put in and like, you know, I made a post on
40:16
Facebook the other day like Club Loose is the oldest drift club
40:20
in the United States and I probably think the United States
40:24
probably came right after Japan. So it's probably the oldest
40:27
second to Japan. And these dudes have been
40:29
putting their work since O3 I think 2000. 3 Something like
40:32
that. Yeah.
40:34
And so many dudes have come through like you guys a lot of.
40:38
There's like generations of Club Blues stuff.
40:40
Listen, when I Gabe, when I tell you the the I don't.
40:42
Even recognize him. I know he's.
40:44
This girl, Oh my God, he's talking about.
40:46
Hector's like grit. Grit.
40:47
Yeah, he was Gabe. And.
40:48
He drives like a grown man. I miss you, Gabe.
40:50
Gabe drives exactly how someone who was raised at Club Blues
40:53
should drive. Yes he was.
40:54
He also doesn't. He doesn't just drive like an
40:56
old man. He fucking he talks like an old
40:59
man. He acts like an old man.
41:00
He like yell at he like yell at people like old man.
41:03
So yeah, we were talking about sorry, we got we got cut off due
41:06
to technical difficulties because Malcolm sucks with tech,
41:09
but we're. Back.
41:10
But we're back. Yeah.
41:11
So your first Hector experience? Yeah.
41:13
My Hector experience is we're talking about Gabe and how Gabe
41:15
is an old person. But when I've met Hector and I
41:19
did get bullied by Hector the first time because I was on used
41:22
tires in the bag, just random stocks and he was like how do
41:25
you expect to get better with different tires?
41:30
And I'm like. Wait, they were mismatched?
41:31
There was no, they were just every time I was drifting, it
41:34
would be a different pair. It'd be a different pair.
41:35
And he's like, I, I was telling Frankie after that fucking
41:40
showed up brand new tires on the next event.
41:42
Everyone's SO. Scared.
41:43
Of Hector. Always bro no well just cuz
41:46
like. He's like the nicest guy.
41:47
Yeah, that's the funny part. Yeah.
41:48
Is he? Is he gonna be there tomorrow?
41:50
Yeah. OK, I.
41:51
Also just I know Hector was probably.
41:55
A. Boss in the 80s bro.
41:57
He sure seems like he should have.
41:58
Dude, he was probably cut up, you know what I mean?
42:00
He's military, right? Yeah.
42:02
Was he? Yeah, I think he was.
42:03
Military dude. He was probably cut up.
42:05
Slaying the ladies. He's a little pretty, I.
42:07
See pictures. He was a little pretty boy.
42:08
Yeah. Was he?
42:10
Really where you wanted. To talk to you about this
42:13
tomorrow. Jesus, I'm pulling your card,
42:16
actor. You were a pretty boy.
42:16
I saw that. No game.
42:20
Game is game is literally Yeah, it's.
42:24
Great. Why the fuck are they doing
42:26
that? New.
42:28
Tires. New tires was a game changer.
42:31
New tires. Oh yeah, we're talking about
42:32
that too. New tires.
42:34
Like if you've been running on shit tires and then you switched
42:37
to new tires. It's just the, it's just the
42:39
heat cycling part. It's like somebody ran on those
42:42
random hot, cold, hot, cold, hot, cold, hot, cold, and then
42:45
you put them on your drift car. I wouldn't even get like
42:47
performance joints. I would I go to the Poppy store.
42:51
Yep. In North Philly, yeah.
42:52
And just buy like the closest to the size that I wanted.
42:56
Whatever they had, they had the most tread.
42:59
Sometimes they held there, sometimes they did it, you know
43:01
what I mean? So.
43:03
We brought up some old tires. You remember this brand called
43:05
Triangle Triangle. They were a feeling they were
43:08
around for like a year or two, Yeah.
43:11
And they made so much smoke. I had one pair.
43:13
I got one pair. I remember the triangle tires.
43:16
I remember that. What about?
43:17
Ginu. You remember Ginu?
43:19
No. Ginu Ginu Tire.
43:21
What about Far Rd. Yes.
43:24
That's still a tire. It is mucho macho.
43:26
Macho Cosmo mucho macho. Chris was.
43:30
Ended up with those because I think it was simple tire
43:36
mispriced, mispriced Candace. They were like $50 a tire or
43:41
something dumb and like people were buying.
43:44
Pallets. I remember this.
43:45
People were buying pallets. And they were like Nah, y'all
43:47
too. And So what they did is like
43:49
after we bought like all of them, they reached out to some
43:52
of the people that bought them. Some people they just cancelled
43:54
their orders, but some people they reached out and they
43:55
offered them the Cosmo Mucho Machos at the price.
43:59
As if this comparable. Yeah, I got them.
44:02
I was like, well, hey, if you gonna give me a tire like at 50.
44:05
'Cause it was mucho machos were done.
44:07
Yeah, Chris, like. It was a 260. 53518 So I was
44:10
like, if you're gonna offer me a 265 at $50 a tire, I'll take it.
44:13
Give me 4. 'Cause that doesn't exist
44:15
there's. Some big tires What?
44:17
Is this shit for a drag car? He remember he was saying he was
44:21
running 40PSI. Yeah, or. 30PSI for 30PSI, he
44:25
thinks. He's an FD bro.
44:26
So. So what's your setup?
44:28
So. Don't listen.
44:31
Wait, is that an FD Malcolm? 260 fives on RV20 with the stock
44:38
trains. How much power?
44:41
Nothing. Running, running, running 11 and
44:44
a halfs. 11 and a. Halfs found it.
44:48
Oh damn, how fuck. This dude thinks he's in FD.
44:51
Yeah, he. Looks like trying.
44:52
To drive this car that's he was having issues at Midpine.
44:56
Yeah. I was like, you're just not
44:57
going fast enough. My advice from Petty?
45:00
Yeah, I got in that thing. It is.
45:02
It's so gripped up. It makes no sense.
45:04
No one can drive that far. Makes absolutely.
45:07
Is that? D Max Kit.
45:08
Yeah. D Max, yeah, that's the kind of
45:10
what I've been fighting with. I've been fighting with like for
45:13
the last couple years on that car is just how much grip there
45:16
is, like just mechanical grip. Yeah.
45:18
So I was just been finding ways to to take.
45:21
So I raised higher pressure. I actually D rebarrelled the
45:24
front. So I went from 10 1/2 to 9 and a
45:26
half in the front. I went from a 265 to I run 245
45:30
now in the rear. Went from D Max to KBD.
45:32
What are you afraid of? What's the What's the pressures
45:36
you're running? Like 70.
45:39
In the front or back Back. Yeah.
45:42
Dude, I love that it's an RB20. Yeah, I.
45:43
Usually start with like I usually start with like 50PSI in
45:46
the rear. 50 front, 20 back. Yeah, 50 verse 20 back what?
45:50
50 front. 20 back, Yeah, I'm sure it's, I'm sure it's 70. 50
45:54
front, 20 back. Are you guys still?
45:55
Do you guys know about this whole high front tire pressure
45:57
thing? I've heard. 50 front, 20 back.
46:00
You remember it started off back in the day like no sway, no
46:03
front sway bar, Yeah. It was on.
46:05
That it was like, yeah, and then it was, you know, put your sway
46:07
bar on the front back and then take the back one off and then
46:11
grippy front tires and then like super rear tires.
46:14
And it's like, no, all four gotta be the same like.
46:16
And now I'm hearing. You think it comes from Chelsea
46:18
doing that video where he was, you know, drifting on that was
46:21
the game video saying the fronts don't matter like.
46:23
Chelsea doesn't realize that he's Chelsea.
46:28
Now he's FD champion like 2023 like he's the actual champion.
46:33
But all of that aside, though, for me watching, what makes me
46:38
not like, I guess enamored with the way that Chelsea drives is
46:41
the way that it Teddy drives. It's like very smooth.
46:45
It's a it's a it sets a goal for somebody.
46:48
Like he could drift fucking, at least to my perspective.
46:51
Anything, anything, Right. Yeah.
46:53
So like Chelsea, So he was around like when I first started
46:57
doing St. drifting. He actually used to work at a
47:00
JDM shop and he had a Miata back then.
47:03
I think people that drift Miatas are special.
47:06
Real tart. Have you ever tried?
47:07
The oh, they're. Special.
47:08
How? Special.
47:09
They're special, but. Like you said, Josh.
47:11
He can drift anything and he just has a way of simplifying.
47:16
But he said he used to race spec Miatas back in the day, so I
47:19
think. That's where his business makes
47:21
sense. You know what?
47:21
I. Mean because like, if you're
47:22
doing grip driving and and racing, there's a level of
47:25
smoothness that most people don't have that you have to
47:27
have. But that's what he said he was
47:30
doing, I think in Texas before he had moved up here.
47:33
But yeah, that guy. And The funny thing is, Chelsea
47:36
seems more humble now that he's champion than back in the day
47:40
when I think it's. Because he's where he wants to
47:44
be, like he finally has an opportunity to.
47:46
Where? He doesn't have to ask anybody
47:48
for anything. He doesn't have to chase anybody
47:50
for anything that he's finally kind of built himself up to
47:53
where he can do exactly what Chelsea wants to do.
47:55
Because like, you know, I've been, you know, I don't, I think
47:58
probably the only one in the room who really watches FD with
48:00
any real regularity. So seeing Chelsea come up from
48:04
like the XDC and seeing him win XCC multiple.
48:07
Oh, he did, Yeah. I didn't even know.
48:08
That yeah. So he ran at the XTC series, won
48:11
that, won that multiple times and then moved into FD, coming
48:14
to FD in the E46. And then he was always that
48:17
driver that car was. So yeah, it was really well.
48:21
He he drove. That car the way that like you
48:24
wish like everybody would drive, but he was always such a razor
48:28
and then seeing him go from that to getting the ride at, you
48:31
know, at Rooter. Well, not Rooter at the time.
48:33
It was ASD at then but like, you know, seeing him.
48:36
Think about. I was just going to say you're
48:38
literally an encyclopedia. Like how did that happen?
48:40
Listen, so he's yo, he, I, he talks.
48:44
About pro dressing, I'm just like bro change listen.
48:46
The way the way that some people know football, basketball, like
48:50
all these things. For me it's it's FDI.
48:53
Think I've met someone that knows so much about.
48:55
It and it's because I've been, it's because I've been around it
48:57
so long. So like I came up like probably
49:00
early 2000s, like 2007 or so in the South when Streetwise drift
49:05
was a thing. So streetwise drift was the kind
49:07
of the sanctioning body that was the program series in the South.
49:10
So if you wanted, if you wanted AFD license and you were South
49:15
of the Mason Dixon, you were likely and to be honest, for a
49:18
lot of people on the East Coast, you were coming down the
49:20
streetwise to see us. You.
49:22
Know so you've got your you've got your Pat Goodin came through
49:31
you've got your you know Nate Hamilton came through got his
49:37
license through the series. What's the guy that used to ride
49:41
jet skis from Florida? I cannot think of his name right
49:43
now. DJ Khaled No.
49:47
Rain Rain XS 14 Alekanadel. Alekanadel also came through,
49:54
yeah, through Streetwise Drift. So because we were FD adjacent
49:59
and we were feeding series from there and we were in the South
50:02
when FD came to Rd. Atlanta, St. rides would run the
50:05
Pro am through through, through Rd.
50:09
Atlanta. So I think I just kind of got
50:11
sucked in just being adjacent to it being close.
50:14
Did you ever go to Nopi Drift you?
50:15
Guys, Yeah. I remember it, but I think that
50:17
was before. NOPI in Atlanta, probably.
50:20
She actually drove that. Yeah, probably 2007 I was.
50:23
There I can't remember the. Year, yeah, probably 2007, but
50:26
no, like it's Chelsea has been like an honor to see him like
50:30
come up through the series because I think he's come up in
50:33
a way that like you don't have a choice but to respect.
50:35
Him, it was an honor. Yeah, Yeah, you don't.
50:37
Give him an. Yeah, I mean, I would like.
50:39
I shake his hand like I give him a step back.
50:43
Over the fucking plane will be really just taking.
50:47
Shots at Ryan. I that's my brother I got, yeah.
50:54
You want to give him an award? But no.
50:57
But no. But I think kind of back to what
50:59
we were talking about, though. But just Chelsea's at the point
51:01
now where he can just do what he wants.
51:03
Yeah. Like he's finally built himself
51:04
up to be able to do exactly what he wants, how he wants to do it.
51:07
It's cool watching him build the Porsche, the fox body.
51:09
I didn't know for the longest that he had a YouTube channel
51:12
and I started watching. The reason he's really good at
51:15
setting up cars. Yeah, that's right.
51:17
You gotta be good. His knowledge on that is like
51:20
he'd be talking about stuff I don't even know about it.
51:22
That's. That's kind of why.
51:24
So I built an E36, right? And it was my first time
51:29
drifting in E36 and it was terrible.
51:32
Like it was twitchy and crazy and Chelsea was like, yo, I got
51:34
something that couldn't help. He sent me some springs and it
51:37
transformed the car like like. Different spring rates or
51:41
something? It was just some rare springs
51:42
that actually lowered the back of the car.
51:44
I don't know what spring rate. He was just like, yeah, these,
51:46
these are good 50 bucks and the car was amazing and then I
51:50
crashed it, but. But for the.
51:52
Totally unrelated. Yeah, unrelated, but for the
51:55
short period of time that I was, I was like, yo, this dude knows
51:57
his stuff and I think he gave me some other pointers on like how
52:00
to change it up or whatever. I can't.
52:02
Remember, it's crazy that springs help that much.
52:04
Yeah, I, I was very skeptical, but I was like, all right, Well,
52:07
I mean, yeah. You kind of know what you
52:09
talking. About SO let me try.
52:11
It, I, I, I like that. I feel like every way that he
52:15
sets a car up is because he just believes that it's that way.
52:19
Like he that's kind of why I, you hear the I know Frankie
52:23
hears the 50PSI fronts high PSI front, low PSI rear shit and
52:27
he's like, what the fuck? That sounds so.
52:29
It's so weird. It's so weird.
52:31
There's extremes to it, I get it.
52:33
It sounds fucking wild even to like kids.
52:36
These days, man, Yeah. Have you tried it?
52:39
Yes, that's why it works yeah, yes.
52:40
So what I believe in is if you think that it's gonna make you
52:46
drive better that way hopes then go do that.
52:49
So it's. All.
52:50
Do you have to? Bring your imagination.
52:52
So in my opinion, what happens with the 50PSI thing?
52:56
Here's a prime example. We were at the ready.
52:58
Set drift day. June 16th weekend Believe in you
53:01
less and less and more you talk, but let's.
53:02
See how? Well, you you would know if you
53:05
went. You know, if you went.
53:13
So I'll drive your car tomorrow. Knock yourself out because.
53:17
It's not. You hesitated though.
53:18
Don't say that. Don't say that.
53:21
Drive it. Yeah, you stop.
53:22
You're going to hate that shifter.
53:24
You're going to. Complain about it.
53:25
The seats crooked from the sea. That was Darrell's Ray car.
53:29
Have you ever driven his old SE? I I bro the seat was mounted to
53:33
the. Floor bro his shifter was so
53:35
stiff I had to use. Two, I pulled the rotator.
53:39
I pulled my rotator. So I'm doing that too because I
53:41
had that same shifter. But yeah, witch shifter Fenfab
53:45
bullshit company, don't buy from it.
53:47
Wow. You.
53:48
Are fent that the ocean is wack? Seeing Darrell.
53:52
So I never saw Darrell drift in person until I saw a video of
53:57
him at English Town and apparently this was the first
53:59
time he went to English Town and he's like, you got to watch this
54:03
video. I'm like, okay, and I watch it
54:05
and he's fucking going first, second, third.
54:09
I don't know if he went 4th, but he was in third.
54:10
Yeah. Either way, he was in 3rd. 4th.
54:12
4th And I was like what the fuck are we doing here?
54:15
And then he just fucking flicks it to turn one.
54:17
He's got like ragged ass gloves. I'm like, and it's always on one
54:24
hand, dude and dude, he's about. Throws it in the turn like y'all
54:28
know the. Story of the fingerless gloves.
54:29
His mom, His. Mom.
54:30
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I would make fun of the
54:32
fingers, like what the fuck's going on?
54:34
But until he told me it was his mom, I'm like.
54:37
Alright, alright. Yeah, but like.
54:39
This. Is my first experience watching
54:41
this and I'm like damn. And I'm just watching the videos
54:43
like damn, I was like, this guy's good at drifting.
54:46
I was. Like this is.
54:47
His first time on this track. Yeah.
54:49
Yeah, I was like, yo, this guy's fucking serious that.
54:51
Was mid pond bro. And then and then I was like,
54:54
that's an NA motor. Like, yeah, yeah.
54:56
And SC is not an easy. Car big as?
54:59
Who? It's not an easy car.
55:00
No. When he went to Mid Pond for Mid
55:02
Pond one. Yeah, I think that's so we had
55:05
this summer sausage. You went though.
55:07
Yeah, go ahead. So we we, we started doing this
55:12
thing and like. Pause pre pause.
55:14
Yeah, pre. Pause.
55:15
I was going to say summer sauces.
55:16
Yeah, pre pause. So it it started with it started
55:20
with a Walmart trip. Shout out to Joe.
55:22
Yeah, Joe was sick of our shit. She's all our mom.
55:25
Like she was all of our moms because.
55:28
Yeah, Joe, we're. We're in Walmart.
55:31
We're already in Alabama. We're in Walmart.
55:33
We're walking around and we're just being idiots.
55:35
Yeah, Like we're just being idiots.
55:38
And like we got to this point where like people are just
55:40
bringing sausages and just throwing sausages in the car and
55:43
Joe's like, no, put it back. And like people are just
55:46
bringing bigger and bigger sausage.
55:49
It like starts with hot dogs graduates to bronze and like so
55:53
like somehow somebody put a summer sausage in the.
55:57
And it made it through the. Checkout and it made it through
55:59
the checkout and nobody caught it.
56:01
Like so we had a cart like full of stuff and it ended up checked
56:04
out. So we get back to where we're
56:06
staying and we're taking all the stuff out and we've got the
56:08
summer sausage and we're like, we got to do something with
56:11
this. So we decided to make it the
56:13
hard charge the. Hard charger Super pause The
56:16
hard charger of the event takes home the summer sausage.
56:20
Yeah. So that's a.
56:21
Cool lot. Yeah, you keep it to the next
56:24
event and you get. The hard charger The hard
56:26
charger of the event gets the summer sausage.
56:30
I need that on a shirt. So who?
56:32
Who do you guys? Think got the hard, got the
56:35
summer. I know Daryl did not come home
56:37
with any arrow. Yeah, none of.
56:40
It because he was the hard charger.
56:44
But shout out Daryl again, he did leave the summer sausage in
56:49
the car for weeks. And it exploded.
56:54
He was supposed to give it the twitch.
56:57
Twitch. Twitch won the hard charger last
56:59
year. No, no, no.
57:00
Was it last? Year.
57:01
Yeah, it was. What track were we at?
57:03
Oh, at midpoint. Yeah, midpoint Lanier.
57:06
Does Twitch still not have a cage in the car?
57:08
He does now. OK, he does now.
57:10
Yeah, he's a group club loose bro Thank God.
57:12
Him and Cher. I thought he was just, I thought
57:14
he was just doing like maybe it wasn't him I was thinking of.
57:16
I thought we were at an event last time and I was watching
57:18
someone. I was like, this person still
57:20
doesn't have a cage in their car.
57:21
It's. Probably me, yeah.
57:23
I was like. What?
57:24
They're like totally by 36 because I was trying to, I was
57:27
planning on coming back to club loose a lot more.
57:29
So I was trying to build a a group car but.
57:32
I wish we had a bigger facility. We'd just keep all the cars you.
57:34
Know. Yeah, but I mean, I, I wrote
57:36
that. Off listen, I'm I'm thankful
57:38
that I'm not close to you guys because I would be so much
57:40
broker than I currently. Am Yeah, I love it.
57:42
You know I. Usually you.
57:43
Frankie loves hearing that, yeah.
57:45
I'd be so much I, I, you took me on that tour and I'm like, I
57:49
need this, I need this, I need this.
57:51
Imagine the. Showroom was up and running.
57:54
Yeah, now, now you got that. You got the cage.
57:56
Yeah, that would be nice. But wait, the the car setup
57:58
thing. Sorry.
57:59
Oh yeah, we're back. We're back and we're you're so
58:03
back. What were you talking about?
58:05
No idea. I'm just kidding.
58:06
Yeah. The car setup PSI so. 50PSI
58:09
whatever PSI you want to. Whatever.
58:11
PSI you want to run whatever it is, 6050 twenty green, yellow,
58:15
black, white, brown, I don't care.
58:17
It's 2024 anything's. Possible.
58:20
What Whatever makes you drive your best is what you should do
58:24
and. What you should tell your
58:26
friends No. So I gave it a try.
58:28
I gave it a try. June 16th, ready set drift.
58:31
I saw Hayes there, Matt Craig was like do the do the back E
58:34
comp or do the entry comp and I'm like, I don't know.
58:36
I don't know why those are cool. And then yeah, yo, look at that.
58:39
Look at that coaster, Matt Joe or Matt Jeff Corey.
58:46
What are we doing? What is that shit upside down?
58:48
Who was high as fuck when they fucking printed?
58:49
I mean, what are we doing, Mike? So.
58:52
I mean, it's interesting we're talking about.
58:53
It I think, I think that that's actually super fitting though.
58:56
I think we all agreed on that. I wonder if it was intentional.
58:59
Like, but they encouraged me to do this and so I did this and
59:02
then I remember in my head I had this conversation when Sam
59:05
smooth brain. Nickname.
59:10
That's the team name. That's the team name.
59:11
Team. Smooth brain.
59:12
Where are they drive Jersey? Drive amazing bro Indiana.
59:15
They're from Fort Wayne. They're they're cool batch of
59:18
kids. They're they're crazy.
59:20
Driver the day in, boys. Yeah, yeah, man, their car is
59:23
that yellow? Yes.
59:25
Yeah, Oh my gosh. My bad.
59:26
That came and went. Right, No one of them still
59:29
exists. So I think the dude who had the
59:32
the cookie S14 I think. That was 3. 50Z.
59:35
Yeah. I think he still has it.
59:37
I don't know. That that cookie was.
59:39
Yeah, it was hard, but he knew the 180 or yeah the hash.
59:43
My bad. No.
59:43
No, no, no, no, no. No, no, you're good.
59:45
You're good. We all invested in that
59:46
conversation, but I'm gonna wrap this up if, if it makes you
59:50
drive better than do that. So that's what I did.
59:52
I was like, OK, let me go try this.
59:54
And in my mind, what I'm thinking that my theory is that
59:57
if I want to throw an angle where I need the front to drag a
1:00:01
little bit more, which is like, oh, I want to impress these
1:00:04
people. I want to do a little bit of
1:00:05
more of a showy. Entry.
1:00:06
Need the front to drag. Is that what?
1:00:09
It's for. Backwards entry?
1:00:10
No, it's not even for that. It's that when you're drifting,
1:00:14
one tire is fighting the other at all times.
1:00:16
Always, whether it's the front or the lead tire.
1:00:20
And then if you have it, if you have it, if you have it up high,
1:00:25
the tire when you're doing your initial entry or your bite, the
1:00:30
initial bite, like the tire is still there, but like it's not
1:00:33
as much. But when you're in drift, dude,
1:00:36
the steering feel completely changes the angle at which I'm
1:00:39
drifting completely changes like the the the little balance
1:00:43
point. I'm going to call it balance
1:00:44
point if you're a motorcycle rider.
1:00:45
Exactly what that means. But like it's it changes.
1:00:49
Everything changes just cause of the front PSI went way up.
1:00:52
It's crazy. I mean try.
1:00:53
If you don't like it. Then.
1:00:54
You don't like it, drop it back down.
1:00:56
I'm not going to make you do whatever.
1:00:57
I will say it like, but what are you?
1:00:58
Saying like 60 front, like 40 rear.
1:01:00
I like to do. The rear is in the front.
1:01:03
Rear is whatever you run. Wait, wait, you said same.
1:01:05
I like to I like to do, I like to do rear and then double it
1:01:09
for the front. Wow, so at mid pond, so you
1:01:12
really? Throw your car.
1:01:14
Yeah. I.
1:01:15
Mean it kind of makes sense in in like any in car.
1:01:17
Unfortunately my hands are so sloppy and like on an entry, my
1:01:21
like elbow, my elbow is is hitting the fucking roof.
1:01:26
I'm like. Carl Carl wants to have a 2001
1:01:30
style drift car, but he wants to drive like it's a Mahon car.
1:01:33
Yeah. So that's the.
1:01:35
That'd be cool. That sounds.
1:01:37
That's not my E36 fault, but I had I had a lot more of rear
1:01:41
grip than front and that's pretty much where I crashed.
1:01:44
But well, E36 got. Grip yo bro always that car was
1:01:48
so slow but it was the fastest injured.
1:01:50
Car that, that's what everyone says.
1:01:52
It was ridiculous. I just saw a video of that car
1:01:54
the other day and like just remembered.
1:01:58
Turn one at spirit. Oh.
1:01:59
No, I see that video. It was video.
1:02:01
I think it was from the private that we did together.
1:02:03
Yeah, Piedmont. That was the first time I.
1:02:04
Drove, yeah. And just seeing that car, like
1:02:06
skate out, like down the hill, like, yeah, that car was
1:02:08
definitely, you could tell it was gripped up.
1:02:10
Yeah, so I went. I went from AS14 to AFC and S.
1:02:15
Dude. Yeah, trying to be different and
1:02:19
but the SC is so no matter how hard you throw it, it just looks
1:02:23
undramatic. It's because it's long.
1:02:25
Right, super long, lazy transitions.
1:02:28
And so when I bought the E36, like it was a lot of work, but
1:02:30
it was a lot of fun because I'm like I'm, I'm bored in the SC
1:02:35
cabin, but in the E36 I'm swatting bees.
1:02:37
Like you said, my hands are busy.
1:02:39
I'm smacking my arm against the door like it's crazy.
1:02:42
It was so fun, but I had that car for four.
1:02:45
Of us good though. I love that car.
1:02:47
Dude, Daryl's car every time I see it.
1:02:49
Man, it still blows my mind that he's my roommate.
1:02:51
It's funny, as friends sometimes did.
1:02:53
You know of him before? We were we we've been friends
1:02:57
for for a good time now, for a good chunk of time now.
1:02:59
Good time, long time. OK, not a good time.
1:03:03
Maybe. Fantastic.
1:03:04
OK, maybe shout out to Joe and that.
1:03:08
Means and and also coincidentally, that also means
1:03:10
that I get Joe as a roommate, which is.
1:03:12
Awesome, does she cook for you? Sometimes if I don't like, I
1:03:16
don't. I don't like if that's your
1:03:17
food, like yeah, eat that. But if she offers her to cook
1:03:20
though, dude. Oh hell.
1:03:22
Yeah, she just cooked for us. Joke it from the fuck Yeah
1:03:25
Joe's. Cooking is cooked.
1:03:26
He's out of the hell, man. Yeah.
1:03:28
You were, you were not at a Team Brown event.
1:03:31
If Joe's not cooking, yeah, bro. If Joe doesn't make you a
1:03:33
sandwich on grid, it's not a Team comic.
1:03:36
My. My favorite shit is that I I get
1:03:39
startled pretty easily 'cause I'm always just.
1:03:42
But like, I'll be walking around the house.
1:03:44
I have headphones on Joe's, just Joe's pretty quiet.
1:03:48
She is. Yeah, she'll be sitting down
1:03:50
somewhere quiet as fuck like on her phone.
1:03:52
I loop the corner and then Joe's immediate reaction every time.
1:03:57
Irritating. That's her.
1:04:00
Irritating. 100% that's her. What?
1:04:02
Oh my God, Carl what? I love that shit.
1:04:09
Darrell's brothers like that too.
1:04:10
He was asleep on the couch. In Justin's house.
1:04:13
We thought he was just closed. He didn't move for like hour and
1:04:18
a half. So he had so back story.
1:04:21
We had just gotten in. We got to Joe's house that got
1:04:24
to Jess's house from Lanier. We had we.
1:04:26
Did two events, we're getting everybody in the house loading
1:04:28
everything in and bringing stuff in from the trucks.
1:04:31
Like putting stuff on the couch, going back out, re parking cars
1:04:35
and like he just walks inside lays out on the couch and passes
1:04:39
out. So when we go in like.
1:04:41
But we didn't know that. We need to deduce that later.
1:04:43
Yeah, like, but it was after he got up, like somebody said
1:04:46
something to him or something like that, and he got up and he
1:04:48
moved and he moved. And we broke.
1:04:51
Everybody jumped like. What is that part of the?
1:04:54
Couch. Literally bro he looked like.
1:04:57
He looked like a pile of like, just bags and clothes, that
1:05:02
kind. Of happened the other day, dude,
1:05:03
I I came home from I came home from here and Dame was at the
1:05:07
house. I was that does that does not
1:05:10
matter to me. If you're staying at my house
1:05:12
and you're already there, like I like I I don't really care.
1:05:16
I I've come home. I look right in the living room.
1:05:20
You see in the how the couch is laid out.
1:05:21
He's laid out, but with a blanket on him.
1:05:24
And I'm like. He covers his.
1:05:25
And he's covered a whole. Lot.
1:05:27
And I see Ari and I'm like his daughter.
1:05:29
I'm like, hey, hey, Ari, where's?
1:05:31
And then Dave just goes. And I'm like.
1:05:34
Oh yo, what's up? He should.
1:05:38
Be in this sassy. That's.
1:05:40
Hilarious. He would kill us all that day.
1:05:42
Yeah, we all. In that day.
1:05:44
Everybody did it, sure. I got to tell a story about that
1:05:47
event though, so we have been planning that event for like.
1:05:50
Which event is this? One, this is midpoint 2.
1:05:53
So we did midpoint. Two linear one and we have been
1:05:58
planning that for like I don't know what five months or
1:06:00
something like that and I can't I left work early and I came
1:06:04
home to hitch up my trailer and it was not there.
1:06:09
My trailer was gone and I was like, I was devastated bro,
1:06:14
because I was so looking forward to that event and I was just
1:06:19
like, I'm not going to make it like I don't have a trailer.
1:06:22
My trailer's stolen. This dude drove all the way to
1:06:27
Atlanta and his friend Kareem shout out.
1:06:30
Kareem took his truck and trailer and drove all the way
1:06:34
back to Durham, NC. Oh my God.
1:06:39
So you're, so you're like skipping over like the beautiful
1:06:42
parts. What is?
1:06:44
Going on right now, he called me so I wasn't answering my phone.
1:06:47
There, there's the part. It's like, I'm trying to get in
1:06:49
touch with him because like, we're supposed to link up.
1:06:51
He's supposed to be with us. Like, 'cause we're mobbing down
1:06:53
to Atlanta altogether. There's like three or four of us
1:06:56
and like I'm calling him even the night before I want to talk
1:06:59
to because he was supposed to meet me at my house.
1:07:01
And like everybody's meeting. Derrel's coming down.
1:07:04
I'm calling him not answering his phone call, him not
1:07:06
answering his phone up until the point where we're meeting with
1:07:08
everybody. I'm calling.
1:07:09
Dude doesn't answer the phone. So we're driving down the road,
1:07:12
like an hour down the road. I call him.
1:07:13
Finally, he answers his phone. I'm like, bro, yeah, like where
1:07:16
are you? And that's the energy I didn't
1:07:18
want. I wanted.
1:07:20
I wanted to be sad. And you know what?
1:07:22
I'm. Saying I'm like, bro, where are
1:07:23
you? He's like, he's like bro, like
1:07:25
I'm not. He's like my trailer got stolen.
1:07:28
I'm like, bro, like what? You know what's going on?
1:07:30
He's telling me the whole story. How was that with all my guns
1:07:32
looking for it? Yeah, I'm like, I'm like I'm.
1:07:35
Like give me stuff. I'm like, give me a bit, let me
1:07:38
call you back. So I hang up the phone.
1:07:39
I'm sitting with, you know, my best friend Kareem.
1:07:41
Shout out Kareem, my brother. That's he's a dope.
1:07:43
Yeah, like sitting, sitting with him like passenger seat.
1:07:46
Because this was his first Team Brown event.
1:07:48
I just invited him to come with me.
1:07:50
He he wasn't drifting at this. He wasn't drifting at this time.
1:07:53
I just invited him to come out. Like, yo, these brothers, like
1:07:56
you're important to me. These brothers are important to
1:07:58
me. I need you to come and meet
1:07:59
these guys. Just come out.
1:08:01
Oh, he had just aligned your car the night before too, and that
1:08:03
was the first time I talked to him.
1:08:05
Yep. So like I was like, you know,
1:08:06
you got to come meet these guys. So cream shotgun with me.
1:08:10
I'm towing my car on the trailer all the way down and I'm like,
1:08:12
bro, this is what's going on? Like what do you do?
1:08:15
And so we're driving, driving, driving.
1:08:16
And it's about a four hour drive.
1:08:18
We get to about an hour north of Atlanta and cream goes yo.
1:08:24
Take your car off the. Trailer.
1:08:24
What if you took your car off the trailer?
1:08:26
You go the rest of the way to Atlanta, Your car will make it
1:08:29
and I'll turn around, take your truck and trailer and go back
1:08:32
and get Obi and I'm like, this will work.
1:08:35
So we stop at a truck stop. I call Obi.
1:08:38
I'm like, yo, I'm gonna drop my car right here where I'm at.
1:08:40
I'm about an hour away from Justin's house.
1:08:42
I'm gonna drive my car the rest of the way down, and Kareem's
1:08:45
gonna come back. He's like, no, you can't do
1:08:47
that. I'm like, listen, it's too late.
1:08:48
It's already happening. It's already in.
1:08:51
We're already at a Flying J. We're already at Flying J I'm
1:08:54
already unloading my car off the back of the trailer.
1:08:56
Kareem's already, like, ready to turn around and go back.
1:08:59
So Kareem turns around, drives from an hour north of Atlanta to
1:09:02
Duram North. Carolina.
1:09:03
How far is that? That that's like six hours,
1:09:05
Yeah, like. Six hours.
1:09:07
Kareem listen bro. I I help people.
1:09:10
It's hard for me to take help. Yeah, not feel that when?
1:09:13
He said that bro. That's time.
1:09:16
That's. Crazy.
1:09:16
Gas, not to mention. Trailer guys, got to get back.
1:09:19
No, it's it's time. That's the most valuable thing.
1:09:22
You've said it already. That's it.
1:09:24
Time because you can get money back.
1:09:25
You can do other shit but. You can't get your time back.
1:09:27
Yeah. And this was his first trip, you
1:09:29
know, with him. The first time I talked to him
1:09:32
was the night before when he was asking my opinion on the lineman
1:09:34
specs. And so I'm like, you know, this
1:09:37
dude's cool, but I don't know him like that.
1:09:38
And even Ryan, I knew him. We had broken bread.
1:09:41
And I was like, I'm not trying to take your trailer, You know
1:09:43
what I mean? But they literally got asked
1:09:46
you. They wouldn't take no for an
1:09:47
answer. Yeah.
1:09:48
And we're like. And bro, it was, it was like a
1:09:50
crazy rainstorm. Yeah, right before that.
1:09:53
So I'm like, no, we sent him back.
1:09:54
So Kareem goes meets Obi, they shake hands for the first time.
1:10:00
It's putting Obie car on. My vibe though, he's one of
1:10:03
those dudes. Like on my trailer.
1:10:04
They then leave, load his car up, leave Durham, stop in
1:10:09
Charlotte again where we started.
1:10:10
From Pick up another trailer. To pick up another trailer from
1:10:12
another mutual friend of ours to then come back and bring me a
1:10:16
second trailer so that I have a trailer to get on.
1:10:18
Who was that? Wait, his name 2.
1:10:20
Trucks. Are coming.
1:10:22
Johnny So we went. So basically what they did is
1:10:24
they cream took my truck and trailer, drove the Durham, took
1:10:28
my trailer off, hooked it. To my truck.
1:10:30
His truck put my car on on my trailer hooked the oldies truck
1:10:34
cream or. Cream Well now it's all off
1:10:36
'cause you got another trailer. So now the way I.
1:10:39
Come back I then get on new trailer and.
1:10:42
But let me tell you what happened now.
1:10:45
Worst case scenario. Worst case scenario.
1:10:47
It falls off. Yes, at 90 plus.
1:10:50
Shut the fuck up, I was kidding bro.
1:10:53
Oh, this is the worst case. You know where's.
1:10:56
The We're absolute. Worst and it wasn't worst case
1:11:00
because like, I'm about to wreck, I lost a trailer and I'm
1:11:05
about to destroy your. Trailer.
1:11:08
So like I'm about to pay for yours and then still not have
1:11:10
money to buy my own trailer back.
1:11:12
But bro I have, I have. My butt has not puckered that
1:11:17
hard. What happened?
1:11:19
Bro so apparently I had never hitched it right?
1:11:24
Oh no. And we're booking, trying to
1:11:26
make up time, right? The rain had stopped at this
1:11:28
point. And going uphill this, that's
1:11:32
probably what's saved me. We're going uphill and it was a
1:11:35
four lane. It was like a four lane when it
1:11:36
spreads out. Right before Charlotte 4 lane,
1:11:40
Kareem called me just as the trailer started this way.
1:11:44
So apparently he started to see sparks because it had unhitched
1:11:47
and it. Was it was dragged by the
1:11:49
chains? Yeah.
1:11:50
So it was on the on the skid plate, right?
1:11:52
You didn't even hear it. I didn't hear it, I didn't feel
1:11:55
it, but as soon as my phone rang.
1:11:56
Wait, what kind of truck is towing this?
1:11:58
QX80 the worst bro, the worst part is.
1:12:02
Interesting. He had a tire on the on the on
1:12:06
the front of the hitch. So actually it didn't go down to
1:12:09
the chains. It hit the tire first.
1:12:11
It's like. Bouncing.
1:12:12
Bro it was bouncing and swaying. I could see my car out my driver
1:12:17
window that's how much it was swaying.
1:12:19
I looked in my rearview mirror, all traffic.
1:12:22
Yeah, 'cause it's not hitched. So it's like kind of.
1:12:25
Just it's only hooked by it's. Not controlling.
1:12:27
The chains. Are only.
1:12:28
Gone like. This I, I literally was looking
1:12:31
for, there was a a 18 Wheeler that was getting tires put on it
1:12:34
on the side of the road. And I was like, I just want to
1:12:37
hold it until I'm past that 18 Wheeler because I don't want to
1:12:39
kill anybody. I was sure I was going over,
1:12:41
yeah, I had no control whatsoever.
1:12:44
But like I said, we were going uphill, so.
1:12:45
You look behind you and you just see this thing I.
1:12:47
Saw everyone slam on brakes. This is horrifying dude.
1:12:51
Just. To and I just, I, I could see in
1:12:53
my peripheral side to side, I could see my car.
1:12:56
I did a hell of a strap job, though, because it, it was going
1:13:01
up on two wheels. Yeah, on both sides.
1:13:03
My God, the car didn't come off, thank God.
1:13:05
And I just, I didn't hit the brake because it's like one of
1:13:09
the worst things you could do. I just was light on the gas to
1:13:12
try to keep it as straight as possible.
1:13:14
And I was just trying to get past that 18 Wheeler because
1:13:17
there was like the roadside emergency guy and the truck
1:13:19
driver and I was just like, I don't want to wipe them.
1:13:21
Imagine their faces when this car goes by just like holy shit.
1:13:26
God, right before that area is that little curvy section that's
1:13:30
only like 2 lanes. Had it happened there, I would
1:13:32
have been, I would have been off the road for sure.
1:13:35
So this is OK that it not OK the best.
1:13:38
The best case scenario. Best case scenario.
1:13:39
Best case scenario. So like it stopped and I pulled
1:13:44
over to the side of the road. There's a hole in his his spare
1:13:47
like this, wide. 'Cause it was just running.
1:13:50
Down, yeah, Once it popped, then it fell on the chains.
1:13:53
So that's what kind of saved me. And so it's kind of good that
1:13:56
you're talking about this because we people probably think
1:14:02
when that happens that they will know.
1:14:04
And it's good to know that you won't really know.
1:14:07
But you want to like to Fast forward, you want to know
1:14:10
something funny that I do. So it sat on the the foot for
1:14:15
the Jack, the tongue Jack on the front.
1:14:17
It sat on the foot and it actually wore through that like
1:14:20
half and half and 1:00. I've intentionally not reflected
1:14:23
there. The reason why I leave it there
1:14:25
because when I see that, it's my reminder to always make sure
1:14:29
that it's hit, that the hitch is locked, the pin is through and
1:14:32
then everything is connected. The difference between our
1:14:35
trucks too though is like my stock red light his is lifted
1:14:38
so. Maybe it has something to do
1:14:39
with? It the tire wouldn't have
1:14:42
affected him because his chains will be higher with his hitch.
1:14:45
His trailer's actually kind of angled when he has it on the
1:14:49
truck. Mine is like flat, so there's
1:14:51
not much space between where the tire was in the road.
1:14:54
Yeah. It's just crazy because when you
1:14:55
think of that happening, you're like, oh, it'll, it'll be
1:14:58
obvious. No.
1:14:59
Like it'll be making a lot of noise and there'll be a bang and
1:15:03
Nope. I was doing so.
1:15:05
Charlotte is 2 hours away from Durham.
1:15:08
Yes. We were probably 45 minutes
1:15:12
outside of Charlotte. I made it from Durham.
1:15:15
That's sad. That's a long way and we were
1:15:18
speeding the whole way and you didn't happen until that point.
1:15:20
Yeah, it didn't happen until. Yeah, it's ridiculous.
1:15:22
I was just sitting on there and then just popped off.
1:15:25
Yeah, it didn't. It didn't fully like hit that.
1:15:27
Yeah, I don't know if y'all believe in God, but I definitely
1:15:29
do. Was that the day?
1:15:31
I don't care. That no, for sure that was the
1:15:35
guy. Because like if it really felt
1:15:37
like, and even before then we were pulling out and somebody
1:15:41
cut me off and I almost hit them pulling onto the road.
1:15:45
It literally felt like something was trying to keep me from
1:15:48
coming and it actually was one of the best events that we had
1:15:52
had like. That's kind of weird.
1:15:55
Yeah, yeah, it was, but. You know, to be honest and like
1:15:57
him and I talked about this and this is one of the things that I
1:15:59
told him when I called him. Like, bro, I'm sitting in your
1:16:00
trailer. I was like, there is something
1:16:03
for you here that something is trying to keep you from.
1:16:06
There's something. There is something for you here
1:16:08
that you're supposed to get see experience or whatever.
1:16:11
So like, yeah, like I'm supposed to have you here.
1:16:13
And to be honest, there is something for somebody in every
1:16:18
event that we've had. And, and it's funny is we we
1:16:20
almost said that the events were a cursed because up until what
1:16:23
was it last last year? Yeah.
1:16:26
After every event, somebody had a kid.
1:16:27
Somebody. Ohh.
1:16:28
Shit. You're up after like literally,
1:16:36
literally 1st every single one First event US air ours.
1:16:39
Yeah, me, US Air Jamar kid. Jamar.
1:16:43
Yeah, like literally after every event, Yeah, somebody had a kid
1:16:45
like I. Don't think I can make it
1:16:47
tomorrow. Obi was over this first, then it
1:16:50
was me, then it was Jamar after after Apple Valley.
1:16:55
Jamar had a kid a few months later.
1:16:56
Like like literally after every event.
1:16:59
I think this will be the first one.
1:17:01
Well, no, that's not true because some people are on their
1:17:02
second on this on. This Pat moves out Joe D.
1:17:09
Baby roof somebody. 'S get out the house, I'm good.
1:17:12
Girl say though, what was there for me was that Jamaican food in
1:17:16
Atlanta? Yes.
1:17:18
We went to Was it in a grill? Yeah, it wasn't a grill in
1:17:20
Atlanta. Yeah.
1:17:21
I feel so much pressure right now that this thing is not going
1:17:24
to be that good that I. Ordered.
1:17:25
It can't be worse than some of the stuff we have in.
1:17:29
No, but I like to kind of get by to what I was saying though,
1:17:31
like the that's one of the things that's great about these
1:17:35
events. It's really not about the
1:17:36
driving. Like I could each one of these
1:17:39
events, I could without a shadow of a doubt tell you that if I
1:17:42
went to this event and I did not drive a single lap.
1:17:44
And actually, this will be the first year that I'm coming
1:17:47
without a car pause. This will be the first year that
1:17:53
I don't have a car at the event. But I'm still excited to be here
1:17:56
and spend time with my brothers and hang out and, you know, to
1:18:00
to really be able to vibe with everybody.
1:18:02
And it's really we say that the event isn't the.
1:18:06
Driving itself you're going to see tomorrow bro, so I do the
1:18:10
driving is important and we we we push each other to get better
1:18:13
but you will see tomorrow the vibes and.
1:18:17
He's looking at Frankie because you're.
1:18:18
Coming, I know what time does this end?
1:18:20
So. No, you're coming from the
1:18:22
beginning. Bro.
1:18:23
Honestly the the part if you have to be there for a part you
1:18:27
want to get there after the driving, yes.
1:18:29
What when's the driving end though?
1:18:31
Because I want to say. This it's like a regular
1:18:33
regular. Clever.
1:18:34
We'll, we'll try to make. I'm trying to make it.
1:18:36
Bro Frankie, you got to pull. Frankie hasn't been to a single
1:18:38

When? Whenever you have a bike

1:20:00
drift event that includes all of these elements?
1:20:02
Yo Frankie, give me a faction tattoo.
1:20:06
I'm not giving you no tattoo. I I want the person to be like
1:20:09
you. You want the blessing I want you
1:20:11
to give. I want them to give you the pen
1:20:13
thing and I want. You.
1:20:15
You. Want him to actually tattoo you?
1:20:17
You don't want him to like, write on you and then tattoo
1:20:19
over it? No, no, no, you.
1:20:20
Want him? I want him with the thing you're
1:20:22
trying to die. Our one buddy Miyagi has a
1:20:24
faction tattoo. It's his.
1:20:25
Tattoo. That's cool.
1:20:28
It's like a. Reaper and it says faction drift
1:20:30
club or something. Do you have any tests?
1:20:32
It's so cool. Wait a minute, do you want any?
1:20:34
I'm, I'm just, I don't know. I mean, I'm not against it.
1:20:37
Right. I used to be against it.
1:20:39
I grew up like I was 7th Day Adventist.
1:20:42
So actually that's probably why when we were talking about the
1:20:44
car, you hadn't seen it. I didn't do any Saturday events,
1:20:48
but I grew up some of the events.
1:20:49
So like what? Does that mean?
1:20:51
What is that? So you need to educate me. 7th
1:20:54
day Sabbath and on the 7th day he used to be 7th day event as
1:20:58
well. So you don't do anything secular
1:21:00
on that day From Friday, sundown, Friday to sun.
1:21:05
So I think the easiest way to explain it to people, if you
1:21:07
think of like a very traditional, like someone who
1:21:12
observes the Jewish faith, where they observe Saturday is like
1:21:15
the typical Sabbath where they don't, they're not cooking.
1:21:18
They're not. They're not going.
1:21:20
Yeah, not to that, but it's similar.
1:21:22
It comes from that. Yeah, it's similar in that way
1:21:24
to where we observed the seven days or we observed the seven
1:21:27
day Sabbath where it was from. Sunset Friday, sunset Saturday.
1:21:32
It's time spending with your family.
1:21:34
It's sure it's, you know, time out of the world.
1:21:38
I guess you could say is is the best way to put.
1:21:40
It What religion is this? Is that Christian?
1:21:42
Is that called that? It's 7th day Adventist.
1:21:44
Yeah, 7th Day Adventist. But it's a Christian faith.
1:21:47
OK, Yeah. That's so I'm I'm no longer I'm
1:21:50
no longer my understanding has changed.
1:21:53
It's it can be a very legalistic denomination where I don't want
1:21:59
to get into religion. Yeah, I'm.
1:22:01
Just Frankie loves this shit. I'm going to go get a cookie
1:22:04
from A. Are you Christian?
1:22:05
No, I'm not OK, but I like to learn about all.
1:22:07
This do you under you know about Christians.
1:22:09
I was, I was raised Roman Catholic, so.
1:22:11
OK, so. You understand getting beat up
1:22:14
over a rule that you didn't follow?
1:22:15
So you know, you know what salvation is, right?
1:22:19
Being saved. Yes, OK.
1:22:21
So being saved is supposedly an act of faith, right?
1:22:27
You, you have access to it through faith.
1:22:30
But a lot of denominations have a lot of rules that they add to
1:22:36
their, their belief system. And it starts to become a
1:22:39
legalistic thing where you try to earn God's favor when you
1:22:46
can't. There's just no way you can earn
1:22:48
God's favor. Well, the only way you can earn
1:22:50
God's favor is through faith. And so I had a lot of my
1:22:56
family's Jamaican, very strict dogmatic beliefs.
1:23:00
Yeah. And so I, I would not do
1:23:03
anything cycling. I grew up as an athlete and I
1:23:05
wouldn't play sports on Saturdays.
1:23:07
Wow. A lot of sports happened on
1:23:09
Saturdays. Club loose days.
1:23:11
All the best days are Saturdays. So you're only at night moves?
1:23:14
I would do night, yeah bro, back in the parking lot Wednesday
1:23:17
nights I probe Rd. down. Any two days I would do the the
1:23:21
I would come Saturday night, yeah, and then do the do the
1:23:24
Sunday. And it would suck 'cause like
1:23:26
everyone's hungover and the cars were broken.
1:23:29
And it was always like the the. Wag thing.
1:23:31
It was the Wagner Day. But it was the driving day, like
1:23:34
true. If you wanna see if you wanna
1:23:35
see time which I got a decent amount but I was also broke back
1:23:39
then. Bro I was doing like used tires
1:23:41
from. Oh yeah.
1:23:42
Hey yo, you don't gotta don't be looking.
1:23:44
I forget why I was saying that though, Yeah.
1:23:46
I was trying to think of that while we were going through it
1:23:48
and I was like, I don't think we're ever.
1:23:49
Gonna I wanna know. I wanna know.
1:23:50
I think you were talking about attending club loose and like
1:23:53
why you were missing like specific days and why you maybe?
1:23:56
Didn't see each other before. Then I think we just talking
1:23:58
about religion but. Why did I?
1:24:00
Brand. I just seemed so interested, so
1:24:02
we went off on. I want to know how both of y'all
1:24:04
really. You know how we got here?
1:24:06
We were talking about the trailer and like you said, I
1:24:08
don't know if you believe in God, but.
1:24:09
That day, yeah. Damn, you got a good memory for
1:24:13
you Holy shit. God damn.
1:24:16
No memory fog for you. God, geez.
1:24:19
What were you about to say? But I want, I want to know how
1:24:21
both of y'all found your love for this 'cause you guys are
1:24:24
both into a any time I run into somebody who's into the same
1:24:28
kind of motorsport that I'm in drifting specifically, like you
1:24:31
could like cars and all that. That's a pretty big sample.
1:24:35
But if you're into drifting specifically, that's a pretty
1:24:40
small like. You have to be a weird.
1:24:43
Person, yeah, you got to be kind of into it, yes.
1:24:45
So how did you guys both? I guess whoever wants to go
1:24:49
first, but how'd you guys both find your love for this?
1:24:53
For me it was stumbling on S chassis.
1:24:57
Just two 40s in general. Like literally I summoned on S
1:25:00
chassis. I went to move to Raleigh to go
1:25:03
to school. I moved up there without a car.
1:25:05
There was a small used car dealer literally around the
1:25:08
corner from where I was staying and they had an S13 on the lot I
1:25:12
bought. It S13 on the lot where there
1:25:14
was a minute. Yeah.
1:25:15
What? This was 2000 and probably six.
1:25:23
Yeah, this is probably 2006. Wow.
1:25:25
It's like a 10 year old. Yeah, it was a used car lot.
1:25:28
It was an S13. It was clean, you know, and, and
1:25:31
the price was right, you know my.
1:25:34
Do you remember the price? I don't remember how much I paid
1:25:36
for. I really don't, but it it was a
1:25:39
refund check. I remember those.
1:25:42
Yeah, I remember those. Yeah, refund.
1:25:47
Check from school and I used that to pay for it and funny
1:25:50
story like I was driving it and I drove its stock and like I
1:25:53
didn't know any, you know knew anything.
1:25:54
I didn't have any mods to it and was driving through Greensboro
1:26:00
to pick up my ex-girlfriend. She had come to town, I'd come
1:26:03
to pick her up. I was going to take her back to
1:26:04
Raleigh and kind of spend some time with me and.
1:26:08
Yeah, schedule an appointment. Navy go.
1:26:13
Leaving town and I debatable story but I got hit by a cop.
1:26:20
Whoa, whoa, got. Me bone by a cop.
1:26:24
Coming through an intersection, but coming?
1:26:25
Through an how was? That boss.
1:26:32
Coming through an intersection, get hit in the rear quarter.
1:26:34
Dang spun around like spun me around. 180 smashed my quarter.
1:26:38
In and then he got off with everything.
1:26:40
Yeah. So no, what they did is they got
1:26:42
some witnesses that weren't. Promotion.
1:26:44
They got some witnesses that weren't there 'cause there was
1:26:45
nobody in the intersection cause.
1:26:47
Cops do that. Oh my God, they got.
1:26:49
They got some witnesses to say that like the light was red and
1:26:52
had been red for a very long. Time and I ran it I'm.
1:26:55
Sure. And then so they wrote me a
1:26:57
ticket and then they came up to me and they told me exactly to
1:27:00
the T what I needed to do in the courthouse and what I needed to
1:27:04
tell the DA to get out of the ticket.
1:27:05
Literally told me exactly verbatim.
1:27:07
I did exactly as they said and they they straight to jail.
1:27:10
Ticket gone like taking. But you had no but.
1:27:13
But my car was trashed. You never told me.
1:27:15
So I, you know, I grew up working on cars like, you know,
1:27:20
we weren't, you know, super rich.
1:27:22
So like my dad taught me how to wrench and, you know, we did our
1:27:25
own work. So I started looking for parts
1:27:27
to try and fix what was wrong, you know, fix a couple things.
1:27:31
And I stumbled across a community, actually this
1:27:34
community right here, Carolina nissans.com no longer exists,
1:27:38
but there's a forum back in the day, some of the cross it
1:27:41
started asking questions and I met a family of guys there.
1:27:45
Some of these guys are, you know, my brothers to this day
1:27:48
and they took me to my first drift event at Piedmont Dragway
1:27:53
and Julian, NC shout out Piedmont Dragway the the spirit.
1:27:57
Out Ryan Deavers. Yeah, shout out.
1:27:59
Used to drive FD. He did, he did.
1:28:01
He used to drive streetwise drift.
1:28:02
So shout out the deavers, the whole family, great people, the
1:28:05
Spirit. I consider Piedmont Drift to be
1:28:09
the spiritual home of drifting in North Carolina.
1:28:12
It feels like club loose before the road track.
1:28:16
That's exactly. It's literally the parking lot
1:28:19
of. That wasn't even driving in
1:28:20
there Word technically. Yeah, well, not driving, but you
1:28:24
were. You came in what?
1:28:25
2010, Okay, yeah. Ten was like, oh, that was.
1:28:29
I always break this up and it like I was saying with the
1:28:31
generations thing, you guys are you're like the first generation
1:28:34
of club lose drivers to me and I'm like the 2nd and now we're
1:28:37

1:29:20

1:29:22

1:29:24
Black don't crack. Yeah, that was about to say, you
1:29:26
guess black don't really. Crack You look amazing for 40.
1:29:29
I can only hope this is. Wife and child, yeah.
1:29:33
I didn't have this. I bet if you shave that shit you
1:29:35
look 28. Yeah, but my face is fat now.
1:29:38
Don't y'all not ready for that? At least you could do that, but
1:29:43
what the fuck am I gonna do? You still look young.
1:29:46
Though I'm going to look like this until I'm forever.
1:29:49
That's the Filipino blessing. He's still going to be white.
1:29:53
He's going to look exactly the same.
1:29:55
He's just going to be white. Oh my gosh, really man?
1:29:58
What? Was I going to say fuck when?
1:30:00
When did the racetrack become a thing?
1:30:03
Which was? Like.
1:30:06
Man, I feel like the first why do I want to say 2007?
1:30:10
I feel like there was a next DC event.
1:30:15
Yeah, it had to be after all the the D1 stuff, so.
1:30:18
The D1 stuff was that was where the cart track is, Yeah.
1:30:23
And that was like, that was like 05/06.
1:30:27
I think. I suck with years.
1:30:29
So it's probably like 7:00 to 8:00 maybe.
1:30:33
Something like that. But I remember when it was
1:30:35
built, I used to, because all the events were on Saturdays.
1:30:39
I used to beg Penny to let us do Drift Wednesdays on the race.
1:30:43
Yeah, And he was just laugh at me.
1:30:44
There's no way. But now all the events are on
1:30:47
that. Yeah, but that old parking.
1:30:49
Lot now it's literally a bee sue for fucking drifting.
1:30:52
Yeah bro, but that parking lot was so rough.
1:30:55
It was like sandpaper and pothole.
1:30:57
Yeah. No, no, no, I remember that
1:30:58
still. Yeah, it's bad.
1:31:00
They have like Copart there now or something.
1:31:02
Yeah, yeah, I'm sure those cars can't even.
1:31:04
I mean, but like even even Piedmont, like Piedmont, they're
1:31:07
they're Piedmont. They're.
1:31:08
Trying to improve it, it's got it's gotten better.
1:31:10
It was like 4 different services.
1:31:12
It actually makes you a better job it.
1:31:13
Does. Yeah, it does 'cause you go from
1:31:15
like old, old asphalt to new asphalt to bumpy asphalt, to
1:31:19
really surprisingly smooth asphalt.
1:31:21
Yeah, that's like glass at the bottom of the hill.
1:31:23
And don't let it rain. So you're coming.
1:31:25
You're coming down a hill, like down a hill, like off camera,
1:31:30
like trying to grip up and come back.
1:31:33
With spectators, yeah. Right parking.
1:31:35
Lot. Yeah, so it was access roads.
1:31:38
It's a drag strip and it's a it's a historic drag strip, kind
1:31:41
of like E town. And so there's like access roads
1:31:45
and then a parking lot. And then they built a boss
1:31:48
course, which is an it's literally a kidney, a comical
1:31:52
Oval that's like the size of somebody just driveway.
1:31:56
No, it's the size of this room. And these dudes are cooking and
1:31:59
there's track. There's like tractor tires,
1:32:02
which are notorious to flip cars.
1:32:04
They eat cars. It's like.
1:32:06
The the stakes are so high, like you have to be on it.
1:32:09
You know if. You're driving well, you're
1:32:11
reminding me of the stadium that's now at Raceway Park, so.
1:32:15
Is that open tomorrow? Can.
1:32:16
Everyone be a little. Careful, we're not I, I forbid.
1:32:19
I forbid 'cause I wanted to like real bad.
1:32:22
No. And he was like, absolutely not.
1:32:23
No, he's like nobody. He's dying tomorrow.
1:32:25
We're not. Embarrassed.
1:32:27
I think it is. It is.
1:32:28
We could do it, but I said no, I'm not.
1:32:31
I'm not drifting on your car. No, I'm going to tank it into a
1:32:34
wall and then I like told you. I want I want Eddie to get a
1:32:37
clip of me going. I want to be miked up and I want
1:32:40
to be like OK guys, so we're going to do Rd. course, OK, now
1:32:43
we're going to do car track. OK, You know what?
1:32:45
We're going to try to do this gauntlet real quick.
1:32:48
You know it's really going to suck if I suck at drifting your
1:32:50
car, That's going to suck. Dude, you're going to fucking
1:32:53
hate it, dude. Really.
1:32:56
What if I'm better at him than him though?
1:32:58
I think it's really bad. In a way, he's got your car
1:33:01
doing. My keys bad dude.
1:33:03
It's set up. It's set up in a way where it
1:33:05
is. It's it's a little distant from
1:33:08
what I felt in a 240. Really in?
1:33:11
Terms of how I'm like. I feel like E46 is.
1:33:14
It's so easy to drink. It they're so nice.
1:33:17
They're so nice, especially when it went.
1:33:18
You have a. 1J. One J Yeah, with one J dude.
1:33:21
What kind of dumb tire set have you got on this thing?
1:33:24

I'm just gonna bring them. Maybe I got wheels here or tires
1:33:31
on them. Do you really?
1:33:33
Maybe. If you just bring them, wait a
1:33:36

Yeah. Justin looks OG, too.
1:34:52
He's from Delaware and he's been around drifting since 02.
1:34:56
Yeah, he's been around for a minute.

Stock engine and everything. Stock.
1:36:15
Completely stock. Yeah, you see the hood that's.
1:36:17
No stitcher, this is like a kinetic intake.
1:36:19
So the guy I bought it from I think it was boosted before he
1:36:22
blew the motor and swapped in a stock motor.
1:36:25
So it's just like a clutch coils and stupid size wheels.
1:36:30
Bumper. Is that in the front?
1:36:33
So this day was it was pretty fun.
1:36:35
It was kind of cold and so I was running like 40PSI in the front

1:36:41
Bit I see the. Dude that is about to.
1:36:44
That bumper looks. Is that a stock bumper?

1:37:27
Ned runs a lot I. Can't believe how long Hertz
1:37:30
car's been around. It's kind of awesome.
1:37:31
Bro, he, he jumped in our line. So we had this, there's like a
1:37:37
competition for like team tandem.
1:37:39
And so we were talking beforehand about what we were
1:37:42
going to do and then all of a sudden he just jumped in.
1:37:46
And this is this way of saying hi.
1:37:49
Yeah, wait, who's? The way to your S14?
1:37:51
No, it's back to VA. It's back to.
1:37:53
That's a wrap. It's a wrap.
1:37:54
Yeah, it's a wrap. Does he just have a front?
1:37:56
What's in there with? Yeah.
1:37:58
Yeah, no, it's turbo that is. Bro so he jumped behind me that
1:38:02
I was expecting. I got the just shout out
1:38:04
fantastic boys for doing the rations.
1:38:06
For that. Wait, we're just talking now?
1:38:09
Yeah. Yeah, we were just fucking
1:38:10
having two conversations. Sorry, I was.
1:38:11
I was curious because I was like, I painted your car.
1:38:13
I was like, holy crap. Like who painted your car?
1:38:15
It might be Diego, because he lives in that area.
1:38:17
Oh. Yo, Diego's dope is up, man.
1:38:19
Wait, you know Diego as well? Dude, that's not boy.
1:38:22
He's the one who teaches me how to paint.
1:38:23
I feel like I've met him a bunch of times but I think he's only
1:38:26
been like twice I've. Visited him together last.
1:38:29
Month he's been trying to buy my what are they Vortex
1:38:33
generations? I don't give him an answer.
1:38:37
Wait, So what wheels are on your?
1:38:38
Car. That Carl loves so much.
1:38:41
Oh, oh, no. Sparkle Cheetos.
1:38:43
Sparkle Cheetos Sparkle NS Twos the The Cheetah wheel.
1:38:48
NSO 6. NSO 6.
1:38:50
Sparkle Cheetah Racing Sparkle Cheetah NSO 6.
1:38:54
They are the wheel off of the most wanted, most wanted M3 but
1:38:59
5 by 114 and in eighteens. This looks like a fun page.
1:39:04
I try. I'm very inconsistent.
1:39:08
Dude, wow, dude, yeah, I'm kind of sued for Tebagger.
1:39:11
Yeah, I'm kind of getting excited right now.
1:39:12
I don't even have a car. Yeah, Quan, right there.
1:39:16
So why no spectators? Just easier.
1:39:20
So because it's a private day, they're not set up for
1:39:24
spectators. I think it's like an insurance
1:39:26
thing. Yeah.
1:39:26
And. So it was a track specific kind
1:39:29
of situation that like you guys usually have spectators, yeah.
1:39:32
Oh yeah, 'cause like most tracks in the South are like.
1:39:37
Yeah, you don't gotta say you. Don't gotta say.
1:39:39
We're having like media on the outside of turns, then it's like
1:39:44
wherever. Yeah, to be real, some of the
1:39:47
like tomorrow might be the first time that some of these cars may
1:39:50
have ever been teched for real in their lives.
1:39:52
For sure, good luck on. That oh, I sent the.
1:39:55
I sent the. Club No.
1:39:56
Rule book like 8 times. We've been talking about the
1:39:58
club Loose rule book for a year. I hope you all are OK.
1:40:02
If you show up and you fail tech, it's your own fault.
1:40:05
Like we told you about helmets. We told you about me and Rich.
1:40:08
Everyone got. Every 2020 to.
1:40:10
Be open. But people were buying new
1:40:12

1:40:15
Yeah, no face helmet. We've been doing.
1:40:17
Wearing like bicycle. Cooling.
1:40:20
Overflow tanks. Yes.
1:40:21
OK. Dirt bike belt routing for the
1:40:24

1:40:26

1:40:30
Embarrassed the dude was wearing a bicycle helmet.
1:40:32
Yeah, I I was going to say ABMX. Yeah, perfectly fine.
1:40:35
A bicycle. I'm trying to think what else
1:40:37
for club loose dude. I really hope everybody passes
1:40:40
tech tomorrow. They.
1:40:40
Will they will So let me tell my story how I I got into drifting.
1:40:44
It's kind of. Fun.
1:40:45
Yes, I I just realized we didn't.
1:40:47
Even get to talk. Yeah.
1:40:48
Because Ryan was taking all the all the shine.
1:40:51
All the shine. So I was in college.
1:40:55
I went to College in Alabama and my RA had spent time in Japan.
1:41:02
You know RA is. Residential advisor, Yeah.
1:41:05
Yeah, yeah. So he was like an older guy
1:41:07
because he had, you know, gone and done stuff in Japan 1st and
1:41:11
then he came to college. His name was Neil and he saw
1:41:14
that I was in the cars. So I had like a a drag Nissan
1:41:19
Maxima. Oh yeah, 5 speed manual.
1:41:21
Those things are actually pretty quick.
1:41:22
Shout out Josh. To wait.
1:41:23
What did was. It second or third, the same
1:41:26
Gen. that I had the square body drink.
1:41:29
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was on maxima.org.
1:41:33
The other thing was clean, man. I had a stealing body kit.
1:41:35
On it. Oh wow.
1:41:36
It was lowered, nice wheels, white on black interior.
1:41:41
So he was like, yeah, yeah, I see you're in the cars.
1:41:43
He was like when I was in Japan, like they used to go into the
1:41:45
mountains and just, like, slide their cars around.
1:41:47
I was like, yo, that sounds really cool.
1:41:50
So he said I got some anime that you might like, you gave me
1:41:56
initial DI, missed classes for like 4 days straight and
1:42:01
finished. Just been watching.
1:42:04
I binged it in four days bro and I was in a a club, a local club
1:42:09
in Alabama and a guy had an S14. Now I had always wanted to S4.
1:42:14
I had always wanted to SC right? This is how old I am.
1:42:16
I remember when they came out and they were so expensive, I
1:42:19
never thought I'd be able to afford one.
1:42:21
And an S14 kind of looks similar to an SC.
1:42:24
So I was like, well, that S14 is my attainable dream car.
1:42:28
So a dude had one. And of course S fourteens were
1:42:32
featured in Initial D. So I was like, bro, I'll trade
1:42:35
you. It was a complete stock S14 and
1:42:38
it was a very modified Maxima. And he's like, all right,
1:42:43
throwing the turbo, make it, make it even traded.
1:42:46
And I just started trying to drift.
1:42:47
That's how I got into it. Wow, what year was that you
1:42:50
think? Hold on a minute.
1:42:51
You said a sore or sorry. I I stopped calling MSC because
1:42:55
I I keep calling girls. I I I I see looks like an S14.
1:42:59
I got to stop you right there. I got to.
1:43:01
I got to stop. You squint and you're you know
1:43:04
how How? How hard do I got a?
1:43:05
Pound of tire. How hard do I go?
1:43:07
To the zenkeys. The zenkeys specifically.
1:43:10
Yeah. The zenkeys, not the cookies.
1:43:12
I guess the front of a Zenke looks like the rear of.
1:43:15
Yeah. But if you think about it like
1:43:20
back in the 90s when that came out.
1:43:22
Yeah, the shape. Nothing looked like those cars.
1:43:25
That's yeah when I asked. 14 was superior, you know.
1:43:28
It definitely was. I mean it.
1:43:30
Still is, I'm a Nissan. Guy better drift car.
1:43:33
For sure. No, no window.
1:43:34
Print again for the chat. Shorter.
1:43:37
I'm a Nissan. Suspension design.
1:43:39
McPherson. Door design.
1:43:41
Door. Wait, wait.
1:43:42
The door. Suspension in the SC is what
1:43:44
double wishbone Tell me it's double.
1:43:45
It is double wishbone and it sucks to work on.
1:43:47
Yeah, it's it's not a responsive driver.
1:43:51
It's a Grand Tour. Like it's a lazy car, I have
1:43:55
like 22 KG front and it's still floating.
1:43:58
But then when you see Darryl drive it, you're like, oh.
1:44:00
That's 'cause he's crazy. We just got to hug this shit
1:44:02
out. You just got to.
1:44:02
Drive like you want to crash like.
1:44:04
Carl drives his. I finally got mine to kind of
1:44:06
drive like a S14 but it's just not snappy.
1:44:10
You know what you got to do? You got to get fucking Julian
1:44:13
from Animal Style to make knuckles for that thing.
1:44:14
So. Yeah, Rich.
1:44:15
Actually, man, I never had knuckles until I was doing a
1:44:20
ready set drift. I had to do like a six point and
1:44:22
turn yeah to to get back in line.
1:44:25
And Rich was like, bro, he like he just cut my knuckles for me
1:44:28
and Weld them. Oh really?
1:44:28
Yeah, So I still have those. Wow, not even measured anything.
1:44:32
Yeah. Literally just hacked them up
1:44:37
and brings. Me back to my original thing.
1:44:38
Drifting is ridiculous. And you can do things like that,
1:44:41
absolutely. And you can.
1:44:41
Still drift, yeah. What what drifting really has,
1:44:44
Tommy, is that the the limitations of an automobile are
1:44:47
insanely higher than what the public really thinks it is a.
1:44:50
100%. Like, you know when you know,
1:44:53
you know when somebody gets into it.
1:44:54
This is fucking really shitty, but I drove past a car accident
1:44:58
the other day. What a way to start your story.
1:45:01
In my mind, I'm like. What the?
1:45:05
Fuck are you sitting there for? You could have drove that shit
1:45:07
home. Yeah.
1:45:08
Like, because it was a crazy rear end and I'm like, wheels
1:45:12
look intact, the front's OK. That'll probably drive pretty
1:45:15
straight. Like I hit the wall the bank at
1:45:19
E Town and drove that car from E Town to Philly, so.
1:45:24
You're going to tell me otherwise?
1:45:26
You're like the only one to do that.
1:45:28
Smelling like gas like that car. I wish I had a picture of it.
1:45:32
It was completely demolished. Man, I just swapped the wheels
1:45:36
out was. That the S14?
1:45:37
It was the SC OK it was a 54,000 mile OEM 55 speed manual SC and
1:45:45
300 that I bought from a mortgage broker.
1:45:48
He had two Porsches and his SC was he only drove it that.
1:45:52
Was the daily driver. Right, he bought it brand new
1:45:55
and it has like no miles on it. I put it into the wall at E
1:45:59
town. I had just taken my eclipse off.
1:46:03
Hey, OK. I had just taken all four equips
1:46:05
off. Damn that shit probably looked
1:46:06
good as hell. I did, and thank God I put on
1:46:09
some XXR. Wow, This is why you.
1:46:12
Crashed. This is why.
1:46:15
You crashed the car was like what are you asking?
1:46:17
For I hate you, yeah. Only only one XXR survived.
1:46:22
Only one. Only one. 4. 3 broke. 3 broke.
1:46:28
Yeah, they all shattered. That was a hard hit.
1:46:30
My homie lives like 3 minutes from E town so I parked it at
1:46:34
his house. Tom Nazero.
1:46:38
His name is Johnny Ruiz. Shut out Johnny Ruiz, cleanest
1:46:41
S14 in the States and hopefully it'll be there tomorrow.
1:46:44
And I'm not exaggerating like the nicest S14.
1:46:46
It's not even finished, but I left it in his in his driveway
1:46:50
for like a week and came back with tires from my my eclipse
1:46:55
and drove that thing home. It was one J Oh man.
1:46:59
And I put that that motor has been in three cars since.
1:47:03
Can I, can I ask you a question? Were you living at home when it
1:47:07
happened? I wish you are 'cause I was so
1:47:09
broke. Because no, my question was
1:47:12
like. You bring that car home.
1:47:14
Exactly. Bring that home to Jamaican
1:47:16
parents. Yeah, The funny thing is, oh
1:47:18
man, I got too many stories. I crashed at Summit Point, my
1:47:22
S14, and it was Sr. back then. I didn't crash.
1:47:25
I folded a lower control arm. I hit the side of the road and
1:47:29
buckled it and shattered a wheel.
1:47:31
And my sister lives in DC and it was like 90 miles.
1:47:35
So I had AAA tow it to my sister's house and my parents
1:47:38
were there. And my parents have never been
1:47:40
into anything that I do. Whatever I like is bad.
1:47:45
And so my dad came outside to meet me and I was like, man, I
1:47:48
quit. And my dad was like, why are you
1:47:51
going to quit? He's like, this is the first
1:47:52
time you crashed. He said if you race cars, you're
1:47:54
going to crash cars. Like you shouldn't quit.
1:47:56
I was like, who are you? He said.
1:47:59
He said don't tell your mom. I said that because if you do,
1:48:02
I'm going to deny it. So I went in the house.
1:48:06
I went in the house and my mom was like, oh, what happened?
1:48:09
He's like, yeah, I told that, but he needs to quit.
1:48:12
Shout out Ovie's parents. Like literally like two of the
1:48:15
best people in the world. Like I love, I love his parents.
1:48:19
Yeah, they're awesome. I told him he needs to stop that
1:48:21
shit. Come on bro, like my mom was
1:48:25
like with Jesus drift cars like he'd be nice.
1:48:32
Probably Mom. He would drive ARB 25, S 14.
1:48:35
I can't believe I can't get over.
1:48:36
You have an RV 20. That's.
1:48:37
I love that, Yeah. It's an Army.
1:48:39
I honestly, I that was like the last good Craigslist deal that
1:48:43
existed. I bought that car already
1:48:45
swapped coils. It has wiring, specialties,
1:48:50
harness, bunch of other stuff, bunch of other parts.
1:48:52
Origin Arrow. Yeah, like Origin Arrow already
1:48:54
on it. And like I bought it for $3000.
1:48:58
Running Wow, that's a bad kid price.
1:48:59
Running and driving like it needed a tune and like some
1:49:02
things like finished up. Always needs a tune.
1:49:05
Yeah, it was a Honda kid who got it on a tray.
1:49:07
Didn't know what he had. Yeah, it's crazy.
1:49:09
Yeah, can pay for everything but the last 7. 100B right?
1:49:13
Yeah, right. And then they just drive it and
1:49:15
blow it up, right? Well, there goes everything.
1:49:18
So then I buy it and then Carl buys it.
1:49:20
You should sell that to AR 32 owner.
1:49:22
What the the motor? The Yeah, the.
1:49:25
Little motor while while it's still good.
1:49:27
They're trying, they're trying to convince me to stop having
1:49:30
RB20 trans problems and just put RB25 in it.
1:49:34
Wait. But you can just.
1:49:34
Put RB25. Trans.
1:49:36
You can just do the trans. Can, but then if I'm gonna do
1:49:38
all that, I might as well. Whoa, whoa.
1:49:40
No, no, no, not all. That I don't know. 20 minutes as
1:49:42
well. 30 minutes. No, no, no.
1:49:45
Just. A trans 20 is kind of cool, but
1:49:46
it's. Very cool it's gonna be.
1:49:47
Problems. To be honest, I feel like the
1:49:49
RB20 is the the best sounding. Of yeah, yeah, the.
1:49:53
Problem is no one. So our friend Scott has a R32
1:49:57
and he blew the RB20 in it and he's had a a hard time finding
1:50:02
any information on how to rebuild it.
1:50:04
RB20. RB20 do you guys know anything
1:50:07
about it? Like it would be pretty
1:50:07
standard. Which Scott are you talking
1:50:09
about? Because you're in the Carolinas
1:50:11
and we know a Scott. OK, Yeah, we know a Scott.
1:50:13
OK. One of us buddies moved Scott.
1:50:15
Thompson. Oh, no, shout out Scott
1:50:17
Thompson. That is the homie in Charlotte,
1:50:19
Yeah. OK, awesome.
1:50:20
I was gonna ask you guys. I'm.
1:50:21
Aware. Yeah, Scott Thompson is the
1:50:23
homie Thompson speed. Factor.
1:50:26
Yeah. Oh wow, that is the homie
1:50:27
actually. Speaking of which, the drag wing
1:50:30
on my my car is a Tom Speed factory.
1:50:34
Tom. It is a Thompson Speed Factory
1:50:37
one off. him and I were kind of interacting at the time and no,
1:50:42
he made a post on his Facebook and he was like looking for
1:50:47
people to make them, to make them for him.
1:50:49
And I messaged him and I was like, hey, whenever you want to
1:50:51
do an S14, let me know. And he was like, come over.
1:50:54
Yeah, that's dope. So to be honest, what he got
1:50:57
from my car was really a waste of time 'cause my my wing is car
1:51:01
wide, it's not trunk wide like he would normally do, it's car
1:51:05
wide. Which is why I like it 'cause
1:51:07
it's different. Yeah, you know you.
1:51:08
Don't see that a. Lot dude when Scott made that
1:51:10
wing that shit was I mean he was trying to copy the Abu card.
1:51:15
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But no, shout out Scott
1:51:17
Thompson. That is the homie.
1:51:18
I'm super proud. I'm super proud of the work that
1:51:20
he's doing. Like him stepping out away from
1:51:22
like away from a shop doing his own thing, you know?
1:51:26
Definitely took a leap of faith. Yeah, no, for sure.
1:51:28
And he's killing it. Like, you know, I see his
1:51:30
socials, I see the work that he's doing.
1:51:32
You know, I've been down there to the shop.
1:51:33
He's done some stuff for me. So yeah, no shout out, Scott.
1:51:36
Yo, and that'd be Scott doing the like, listen, we're going to
1:51:41
record at the. Same time as me so we can get
1:51:43
him back on track. Like every time I talk to him.
1:51:45
The last time I saw him was at Grid Life at CMP.
1:51:50
He was. He was there changing tires.
1:51:53
Me too. And so August 3rd.
1:51:56
Thing the 4th up thing is he still has that car that went to
1:51:58
four. It doesn't have the RV 20
1:52:01
anymore unfortunately. It's a one J.
1:52:02
It's a 1J now. Yeah, but like every time I see
1:52:05
him. Like when we're going to drive
1:52:06
together. So I'm going to ask right now,
1:52:08
Scott, when are we going to drive together?
1:52:10
Yeah, we need that to happen. But the problem was those three
1:52:13
cars were two liters. Oh, that's that's why I was
1:52:17
sick. That is like they're all 2
1:52:19
liters like I love. It yeah, that was some.
1:52:22
Yeah, was it? Is it?
1:52:23
Are we? Yeah, dude, I was.
1:52:24
Just so we got a 25A2, what are you?
1:52:28
What is your shit? Now it's a 2.2.
1:52:29
We got a 25A22A2. OI don't know.
1:52:34
You're too big, man 25 is not. No, it's cool.
1:52:37
It's too big, too hot. It's perfect.
1:52:38
But my my favorite thing is that Scott's car actually still looks
1:52:41
like. That.
1:52:42
Yeah, it still looks like that. Still looks like that.
1:52:44
It still looks like that. Look at that.
1:52:45
Damn, yeah, that's nice. Yeah, those wings are definitely
1:52:48
really unique. Yeah.
1:52:49
Yeah, yeah, he. It looks cool in your car.
1:52:53
He didn't finish the delivery. I'm really pissed about that.
1:52:55
What? What else needed to be on it?
1:52:56
Was it? Was it logos and stuff or not?
1:52:59
Yeah, there's logos, there's lettering.
1:53:01
Are you able to go to Fantastic Boys Unlimited Instagram?
1:53:06

1:53:38
Yeah. You drew all these.
1:53:39
Yeah, this is my boy Nico. Remember I said I was supposed
1:53:42
to be at final bout two? He actually passed like right
1:53:45
before that event. We were supposed to go together.
1:53:47
I know who this is, you know, Was he from Jersey or?
1:53:49
Yeah, Yeah, yeah. I didn't know him, know him, but
1:53:51
we knew the car, dude, the car was sick.
1:53:53
The car. Is still the round.
1:53:54
I think his friend has it. He actually died in a 350Z.
1:53:58
He had just gotten it and. I don't even think I knew that
1:54:00
part. Yeah, that car wasn't well
1:54:03
known. He had had it for like, I don't
1:54:05
know, a short period of time and he crashed into a hospital
1:54:10
emergency sign. It was like a stone sign and it
1:54:14
like flipped the car and he went quite a distance.
1:54:17
He went out like a Gee, I ain't going a lot.
1:54:19
I was kind of yeah. But it was, it was really sad.
1:54:22
He was a dope dude. He had a really good style.
1:54:24
Yeah. Really good to hear man.
1:54:25
Lowest car in the region like. I remember that when that
1:54:29
happened, we were like. What the fuck?
1:54:30
Yeah, it was crazy, but keep going.
1:54:33
Fresh on stance I I don't know why, but that's super familiar,
1:54:36
that's why. Philly.
1:54:38
Philly dudes. Yeah.
1:54:39
Anthony DuPont. Yeah.
1:54:40
That's my boy. That's my boy.
1:54:41
That's my dude too. Yeah.
1:54:42
Very smart guy. I was waiting.
1:54:44
I didn't bring up his name his whole time.
1:54:46
I went to his wedding and then when we were at when we were at
1:54:49
Grange, he was like, yo, you're affiliated with that?
1:54:51
My boy Obie is like a part of that.
1:54:53
Yeah, that's my he's good people.
1:54:55
He's that's crazy now, man. You did, Rich.
1:54:56
'S rich's. Car.
1:54:57
Yeah. That's how that.
1:54:59
Car looks great too. Yeah, a couple of them.
1:55:02
Obie didn't do it. That's Galen.
1:55:05
Galen is our dope ass dude. That's Galen.
1:55:07
That's a Reno's car, Yeah. Do not DMOB looking for any
1:55:12
graphic work. He will not do it.
1:55:13
That's. Right.
1:55:14
He's the one who, he's the one who told me not to sell my S13
1:55:17
right away. And then I sold it.
1:55:19
And then I wish I listened to Galen.
1:55:21
That's one of the my favorite cars.
1:55:23
I mean, that was a take off of a old Nissan Primera race car, so
1:55:30
I can't really take too much credit for it, but.
1:55:34
Damn, yeah, this. Didn't come out.
1:55:36
I don't think he did that. Did we get?
1:55:38
Did you guys post a questions? Probably we got some questions.
1:55:41
Okay, all right. I just wanted to make sure
1:55:43
before we get the topic. There it is.
1:55:44
There it goes. This is the final four.
1:55:48
Yeah, that's the. Final Yeah, that's what it was.
1:55:51
Yo get on that. That's.
1:55:53
What I'm saying? So here's what.
1:55:54
Happened this was the original design right 'cause and it's and
1:55:57
I can start 'cause you can see what I requested this is what he
1:56:00
originally came out with and I'm like bro I was like that is fire
1:56:03
but that looks like a pro am car and I.
1:56:05
I get that. I get what you're saying.
1:56:07
So I was like, can we so to kind of talk about like what my
1:56:11
design process or what my thought process was with his car
1:56:14
was I was like, what if T'challa needed to take some time off
1:56:18
from Wakanda and he spent a year in Japan learning how to drive?
1:56:22
What would he drive? Yeah, I told him that and I gave
1:56:25
him colors and that's it. He came, he came back with that.
1:56:28
So I was like, can we like dial it back like 20%?
1:56:31
And then if you go down, I think what I requested, that's what I
1:56:36
requested. OK.
1:56:38
So that's closer to what I am now.
1:56:40
That's still missing a few elements, but.
1:56:42
Yeah, yeah, that was in the font because of the drag wing is not
1:56:44
on there, so. Because that's actually the wing
1:56:47
that I thought I was originally. Drag wing looks better than.
1:56:49
That yeah, the drag, the drag wing ended up yeah.
1:56:51
That drag wing is pretty sick, yeah.
1:56:53
Yo, I want a racing stripe, Frankie.
1:56:56
I know. Yeah, The funny thing is, I hate
1:56:59
liveries. Dude, no, I, I, I don't.
1:57:02
There's, there's a part of me that there's a part of me that
1:57:04
likes it, but there's a part of me that knows that there's a
1:57:08
fine line between a car that just sees the track and a car
1:57:10
that goes on the street. Feel like Frankie doesn't think
1:57:13
I know that but mine. Will look do Carl.
1:57:17
It'll look good dude. They should look good for sure
1:57:20
but I feel like. Carls got taste, but he's just
1:57:22
crazy. Like the colored drift car.
1:57:27
Like is young. Yeah, we had nothing on those
1:57:30
cars. Street cars.
1:57:31
Gray look. I know which is weird because.
1:57:34
It's so basic, yeah, but it's how you execute it.
1:57:36
Like we were saying earlier, I. Like my car right now the.
1:57:40
Like that is, yeah. The funny thing is, that doesn't
1:57:42
even look like a livery to me. That's just.
1:57:43
I don't want it to. I want it to be.
1:57:44
Like car looks. Yeah, calm.
1:57:46
Calm livery. Yeah, yeah.
1:57:48
Like just, I want it to look like a car from 2003 that you'd
1:57:51
see on the street right in Japan.
1:57:53
Yeah, that like this, like like he said, it looks kind of pro
1:57:57
am, so it's like crossing a line in my head.
1:58:00
That's why I was. It's funny working with Rich
1:58:03
because he hates livery. Yeah, he's probably the same.
1:58:06
So he's like, make it look not livery.
1:58:12
Yeah. Rich's car as bright as hell.
1:58:15
Livery. That's why the the red one, it
1:58:17
was like just two different shades of red.
1:58:20
But the the hard part is like he has sponsors.
1:58:22
That Malcolm, you can see that car, it's a little bit higher up
1:58:24
at the JZX in the middle. I think that was like the first
1:58:28
one we did. That.
1:58:31
Yeah, we were just trying to make it like super.
1:58:33
Basic. I remember when that came out.
1:58:35
I would say this car looks good. Ghosted flames like.
1:58:37
Yeah, like I like that. Yo, so that's a funny story
1:58:42
about rich man. We used to work together and we
1:58:46
had known each other from the forums and I became friends with
1:58:50
him because his name was Rich White Man and I thought it was
1:58:52
hilarious like you. Have a lot of people you have.
1:58:56
To say it like that MAN right you have.
1:58:58
To say it like that, it's not rich white man, it's rich white.
1:59:01
Man. Rich white man, Yeah.
1:59:03
I call him rich man and I had driven my SC to work one day and
1:59:09
he was like, do you know whose car that is?
1:59:11
I was like, oh, that's mine. He said, are you OB one?
1:59:12
I was like, yeah. He had been he.
1:59:16
Had been low balling me for my S14 for like 5.
1:59:19
Years. He was offering me like 2500
1:59:22
with a straight face, so we just became friends since then.
1:59:26
That's. Funny.
1:59:27
But he is, you know, he's one of the best drivers I've ever seen.
1:59:30
Yeah, he is. He's amazing and he's a dope,
1:59:32
dope person, man. And very dedicated.
1:59:34
Super dedicated, like the stuff that he goes, half the stuff he
1:59:37
goes through, I would have quit. Yeah, I would have quit like one
1:59:40
year. We did like 40 revisions and it
1:59:45
wasn't, you know, just off of him.
1:59:47
It was like sponsors not being happy.
1:59:49
And I hope he doesn't mind me telling this.
1:59:52
His title sponsor went under right as we he had ordered his
1:59:59
race suit. The the awning.
2:00:02
He got the awning like embroidered and the Duke called
2:00:05
him up and he was like, yo, I, I just.
2:00:08
Fired everybody. The money's gone.
2:00:09
Yeah, that was his title sponsor.
2:00:12
Fuck. And he still made that season
2:00:14
happen like. Dude, I love even the brief
2:00:17
encounters that I have managed to have with Rich.
2:00:20
He's like, yeah, the first time I saw him or at a actually first
2:00:25
time, The only time so far where I've gotten to like, talk to him
2:00:28
a few times. I was like, yo, you're as tall
2:00:30
as they say. Yeah, he's super.
2:00:32
Tall. Yeah.
2:00:33
Yeah. And and every he was, everyone
2:00:36
was busy like getting things around.
2:00:38
I just that's what I could think of.
2:00:41
He used to be really small, small.
2:00:43
Yes. Like and then he got into
2:00:45
drifting then. He got small.
2:00:48
Didn't have time to lift anywhere.
2:00:50
He used to. He used to be diesel rich, used
2:00:52
to be diesel man. And his wife is dope too.
2:00:54
Have you met Corey? I think I might have maybe again
2:00:58
like these are passing encounters.
2:01:00
I don't want to. I always hate that I just I'm
2:01:03
like, yo, nice to meet you. The same with Simba when you're
2:01:05
at final bout recently I was. Like, hey, so.
2:01:08
Nice to meet you man. And then I.
2:01:09
I love Simba trying to. Get out the way.
2:01:12
I met Simba at E town for the first time when he.
2:01:15
Came out, yes. You remember that?
2:01:16
I don't remember it, but I know that he came out.
2:01:20
Was it Was it when everyone came out?
2:01:23
East Coast Bash? Was it when the Breaking Guys
2:01:25
came out? I think hurt was there.
2:01:28
Hurt was there a couple times, but driving I, I drove at Hurt
2:01:33
at Raceway Park and I don't know if that was the first time, but
2:01:35
I know he was very excited. Oh God.
2:01:37
So what year? Was.
2:01:39
That. Was that the year his motor
2:01:41
blew? He went.
2:01:41
Well. Or 18?
2:01:42
Which motor? He went to Pep Boys and got an
2:01:45
entire head. Oh, yeah.
2:01:47
No, it wasn't that. It was that, yeah.
2:01:48
No, I remember hearing about that.
2:01:50
I think it was must have been like 14/13/14, something like
2:01:53
that. But it was crazy.
2:01:54
Yeah. I was like, Dan, this is
2:01:55
awesome. No shout out Simba.
2:01:57
Simba's like probably like the most down cuz OG when we went to
2:02:02
US air like that was my first time meeting Simba and Simba was
2:02:05
running the skid pad. I had a brand new car like first
2:02:08
time like not at a parking lot. So I went on the skid pad, was
2:02:10
doing a few laps and was talking to Simba and I was like, hey,
2:02:14
like would you mind like tanning with me on the skid pad and
2:02:17
Obi's cringing like in the background.
2:02:19
Yeah, I was like. 'Cause he thinks that I knew who
2:02:22
Simba was and asked for him in tandem.
2:02:24
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I just like wanted, like the
2:02:27
experience of somebody there, like what we gonna be.
2:02:29
And Simba was like, I'll follow you, 'cause I think Ryan was
2:02:33
like, will you let me follow this?
2:02:34
And we're like. I'll follow you, yeah.
2:02:38
You know, but no, like, Simba's like, coolest, coolest.
2:02:41
Dude they came back to the house and watched Formula One with
2:02:43
this like. Yeah, all we had to do was offer
2:02:45
him BBQ. I've I've learned that is
2:02:48
Simba's weakness. Yeah, BBQ.
2:02:49
Barbecue. That's my weakness.
2:02:50
Too. So you gotta come to North
2:02:53
Carolina. Yeah, BBQ's ass, but you got
2:02:59
it's vinegar based. I'm not from North Carolina so
2:03:02
I'd be clowning it but dude y'all dudes.
2:03:05
Like, listen, Texas. No no no, wait.
2:03:06
Texas BBQ. It's vinegar based so it's a
2:03:09
little salty. It has no flavor.
2:03:12
It's like eating wet, wet cardboard.
2:03:15
Pennsylvania. Is hold on, wait, I so.
2:03:18
I'm not originally interested. I like vinegar.
2:03:21
I'm I'm Filipino. We we dip.
2:03:23
Stuff. I love vinegar.
2:03:24
Yeah. Jamaicans, we do saltfish and we
2:03:26
drench it in vinegar with onions.
2:03:27
Yeah. Yeah.
2:03:28
But BBQ not. It's, it's different.
2:03:32
Like so like, I guess what they say about is it's supposed to be
2:03:35
more about the flavor, the meat itself.
2:03:38
Than the flavor of the. Accoutrement.
2:03:40
Pause what it's. What?
2:03:45
What is it? Like that?
2:03:48
Because. The.
2:03:50
Accoutrement, the flavor of the French.
2:03:52
Huh, my bro. Yeah, but pause.
2:03:55
Honestly, I like. I like.
2:03:56
Texas BBQ your mouth. Pause.
2:03:59
I like I like Texas BBQ better personally.
2:04:02
It's because it's got the sauce, yeah.
2:04:04
Texas BBQ is good. Texas.
2:04:05
Barbecue. Honestly, the Northeast has the
2:04:08
best food in the country. Whoa.
2:04:10
Easily. It might though, but you know,
2:04:11
you have to know where to go. But yeah.
2:04:13
You have the, the greatest variety, the most authenticity.
2:04:19
I mean, you can't beat it because there's so many people
2:04:21
here that are like, I'm trying to hit this fresh, fresh from.
2:04:25
Wherever they can. Exactly like, yeah.
2:04:29
What is it right bro? You were born in Maryland,
2:04:32
right? DCDC.
2:04:33
So I mean, it's Mid-Atlantic. You're basically where were you
2:04:36
NI mean East Coast or are you like North Carolina?
2:04:39
2 1/2. Hours.
2:04:41
What would you, what would you call it?
2:04:42
He's. A Carolina guy.
2:04:43
Carolina. Yeah.
2:04:44
No, it depends on who asked. It's always been that way, so.
2:04:46
How come you're distancing yourself from the BBQ though?
2:04:49
Because you know it's not good. We got some Patreon questions,
2:04:56
Malcolm. Let's bring those up first.
2:04:58
You know the white card this. Is not good.
2:05:01
It's not. You're the first N Carolinian to
2:05:03
admit that. I'm not a N Carolinian, but.
2:05:06
Oh, see now. 8 foot five right You see that's.
2:05:09
What? It depends on who asked.
2:05:11
Oh my. God should we?
2:05:14
Just go with Fort Malcolm or. I could ask, I got it here.
2:05:17
I think sorry sent. Us.
2:05:18
Wait, we didn't even loop Malcolm in.
2:05:20
Malcolm more than Mike. Yeah, bus and free.
2:05:25
Come on, I'll do it. Though I did that one time I was
2:05:30
really fucking high. We only got a few Patreon
2:05:34
questions, but first. Question from Lauren, why are
2:05:36
you gay? Okay.
2:05:39
Is Lauren going to he better? He's not that far, thank God.
2:05:42
He was supposed to be here because Justin couldn't make it.
2:05:46
Yeah. So Lauren was supposed to be
2:05:47
here. Yeah, but he's coming tomorrow.
2:05:50
Yeah, but I'm not gonna let him drive 'cause he didn't come
2:05:52
tonight. Right.
2:05:53
Pause. Yeah, He's gonna wait.
2:05:54
Whoa. Yeah.
2:05:55
That was, that was, that was wild.
2:05:57
I think we gotta. Stop.
2:05:58
Him crazy. I might come tonight, OK?
2:06:01
Whoa, you gotta get in the hotel, bro.
2:06:03
Yeah. With the door is locked bro in
2:06:09
there? Yeah, no locks.
2:06:11
In the house they not. A single. 1.
2:06:13
I removed. Them.
2:06:15
All out last night. I'm flying back tonight.
2:06:20
All right, Yo, what's up, Ryan? Whoa, LeBron.
2:06:24
Again, these are just Patreon questions by the way.
2:06:27
So why Toyota's the biggest slept on Drift chassis?
2:06:32
Is it sleeping on Toyota? No more is it though?
2:06:35
I mean, I don't know, Toyota's the biggest thing we're rocking
2:06:37
right now. We got No, it's not.
2:06:39
FRS is everywhere. FRS 5 by 100.
2:06:42
I see JZX 100 base models every year.
2:06:46
Yes, the new literally this is. 5 by 100.
2:06:50
Yeah. This is why Toyota cannot be the
2:06:51
GOAT. First of all, that's.
2:06:53
A build. Whoa, whoa, wait.
2:06:55
It's Subaru. A boxer motor and five by 100.
2:06:59
The rear literally WRX. Exactly.
2:07:02
Yeah, and then the Super is a BMW.
2:07:04
Toyota is not the GOAT. The rear suspension of an FRS is
2:07:07
literally not that far off from a J ZX101.
2:07:11
Ten IS. OK, fair enough.
2:07:13
And. The JZX is not that.
2:07:14
Good, but it's legitimately WRX. It's a WRX rear end.
2:07:20
Maybe not the diff. The diff I don't think the diff
2:07:22
is obviously. The diff is AR200.
2:07:24
Isn't it the the diff fits in an IS?
2:07:26
Yeah, so that's why. The diff is the Toyota.
2:07:30
Is it R2R200? Casing.
2:07:33
I don't know. There's so many, I can't believe
2:07:35
there's so many cars with that diff.
2:07:37
I know, I know. It's really weird.
2:07:38
Sorry Lauron, I wanted to sound smart because I know like a diff
2:07:42
name, but there's there's so many of those.
2:07:44
That's the only reason. 180R1. 6200.
2:07:46
Is mostly Nissan but I don't know it could be in a Toyota.
2:07:48
Yeah, no, R200 is in like an RX8 and shit.
2:07:51
Really. No, no, no.
2:07:53
An RX8 has. I probably all have the same
2:07:55
diff it's. A Ford Explorer diff.
2:07:58
No, an RX8 has a S15 trans. Really what it is.
2:08:02
Does it really the? Tail shaft of it the 6 speed.
2:08:06
Oh wow. S15 get out.
2:08:07
Of. Here.
2:08:07
No wonder they suck. Alright, I thought you're you.
2:08:10
Don't like 15? No, I'm I'm talking about RX.
2:08:12
Eights. Oh, they do suck.
2:08:13
I. Was about to say Frankie jerks
2:08:14
off to 15. I don't.
2:08:16
Jerk off to 15 but I do like them.
2:08:18
Silver that I like. Hey yo I had an RX8 for one
2:08:22
week. And how was that?
2:08:23
Oh. I hate it sounded sick though.
2:08:25
I hated. It it did, but it got bad gas
2:08:29
mileage, it was slow and I could not find a setting for the seat
2:08:33
for me to be comfortable. I was like, why does this car
2:08:35
exist? I like RX Eights, but there
2:08:37
there's that question. It needs a bucket and A1J and
2:08:41
it's. And all of them are blown up.
2:08:42
I looked for one for about two weeks and like all of them are
2:08:45
blown up. Literally all of them.
2:08:46
That's because like, they don't tell you it's not a normal car.
2:08:49
You can't just right. This is a good car.
2:08:51
This is a good. Question Kent Juan, is it true
2:08:54
once you go track you never go back?
2:08:57
No. That is a legit question though
2:08:59
for some people. Like they start on the street
2:09:01
and then. My goal is to get good enough to
2:09:05
not need to drive on the track so I don't crash and I don't get
2:09:09
arrested. Yeah, that's because the street
2:09:12
truth is like the coolest thing. That's why I drift that.
2:09:14
But. That's why we all agree, and
2:09:15
it's. So dope like you know.
2:09:17
Yeah, everybody how to keep everybody wants to be able to
2:09:20
see a corner or an off ramp or an on ramp and just be able to
2:09:23
Chuck it in and yeah, it's always gravy.
2:09:26
Like I think that's the goal for.
2:09:27
Like Josh from Frisky Devil said, my hearts are in the
2:09:31
street. Yep, Yep, that's how that's.
2:09:33
Proceed. That's that, that's.
2:09:35
Now. Now it was.
2:09:36
Proceed. But it was risky.
2:09:37
Devil. Yeah.
2:09:38
True. Yeah.
2:09:39
But OK, so here's the thing for me, in my mind, I like to think
2:09:43
that oh, OK, I'm going to keep this all on the street because
2:09:47
when I think about St. drifting somewhere, my heart starts to
2:09:49
race and I start to get absolutely fucking bananas all
2:09:54
over the place. And then I'm like, I couldn't do
2:09:56
that. And then like.
2:10:00
Once my car is running, Carl's life's going to be.
2:10:02
I'll I'll drive upside down, I'll drive a little bit and I'm
2:10:04
like. Where do you go out here or
2:10:07
where did you used to go? St.
2:10:08
Stuff. Yeah, we'll talk after you.
2:10:11
Just have you ever been to South?
2:10:12
Philly, did you just try to hang up on national TV?
2:10:15
National TV, you just. Tried to hem him up on national
2:10:18
national. TV.
2:10:20
Yeah, so street racing used to be huge in South Philly.
2:10:24
I heard you guys. Reese.
2:10:26
Told us about this, I think. Yeah, it would be me, Reese,
2:10:30
Willie, my boy Rich. That's, well, that's really
2:10:35
Willie's boy Rich B5 Star Auto. There was a a Body Shop.
2:10:40
We've heard this name before. B Brian Damian Begley from Drift
2:10:47
Brigade. Yeah, he came out a couple of
2:10:49
times. Nick Delesio.
2:10:52
We would go to like IKEA parking lot.
2:10:54
It's always a fucking IKEA. Yeah, there's a spot called
2:10:57
literally the Big L I mean, like anywhere near the airport is
2:11:02
like kind of abandoned. This sounds very similar to what
2:11:05
I'm going to tell. You the streets are bad though,
2:11:07
like they're wreck your car bad like not even hit a curb, hit a
2:11:12
pothole and you're done. But it used to be so fun and
2:11:15
like it got it got pretty big to the point where like the street
2:11:20
racer guys would come watch whoever was doing whatever and
2:11:23
it was just man, that was such a good time.
2:11:26
It was like a pure time in drifting when I mean, I'm
2:11:30
probably idealizing it, but people were in it for like the
2:11:33
right reasons because they liked it.
2:11:35
Yeah, because it was fun and Instagram didn't exist yet.
2:11:37
Yo Instagram ruined everything. It did ruin a lot everything,
2:11:40
but it made some stuff cool. It's a useful tool because like
2:11:42
that's our main way of communicating in the group and
2:11:45
like. Straight exposure.
2:11:46
Yeah, it kind of. Built my business too, so I bet,
2:11:49
yeah. But the one thing I will say
2:11:52
about St. Drifting that was cool back then
2:11:55
for us was going to Queens, Flushing Meadow Park.
2:11:58
I heard about. Those we call them events
2:12:02
because they literally felt like a drift event.
2:12:04
How many people? Like hundreds.
2:12:07
Hundreds. Yeah.
2:12:08
Couple hundred maybe. Really.
2:12:09
And it's like that. Not drivers.
2:12:11
Frankie describes that people were watching from like the
2:12:14
highway. Yes.
2:12:15
Oh yeah. 'Cause it overlooked.
2:12:16
I heard I never. Used it going in the fucking
2:12:18
minivans and everything top and you could hear it fucking go
2:12:21
over the whole park and then they had cones set up and
2:12:24
everything. Drift zombies.
2:12:25
Shut up, drift zombies. And the difficult part about
2:12:28
like now, like street drifting now, is because you got the
2:12:31
takeover kids. Yeah, they.
2:12:32
Ruined everything I don't want. To get shot.
2:12:33
Yeah, well, it's not even that, but like the take because of
2:12:36
the. In North.
2:12:37
Carolina, they've created legislation where if you get
2:12:40
caught at a takeover, there's like a very harsh step up.
2:12:43
And they'll probably, and if they see someone drifting,
2:12:45
they'll probably just take it's a takeover.
2:12:47
Exactly so like it's one of the reasons why I very rarely go out
2:12:50
to meet. I don't St. drift really anymore
2:12:53
because like all a cop has to see you sliding like takeover
2:12:57
and they can take your car. You can end up like.
2:13:00
That speaks to how good crime is now.
2:13:03
Yeah. I literally slid the
2:13:05
intersection in front of a cop in South Philly and he did not
2:13:10
flinch. He chased me nothing.
2:13:12
Wait, earlier this morning, I fucking oh, wait, did I did I
2:13:15
talk about this? Oh, shit.
2:13:17
Yeah. No.
2:13:18
Was this off? No, this wasn't the car.
2:13:19
We were out dropped off Tyler and Pat this morning at the
2:13:22
airport. And I feel like the cop who was
2:13:26
watching me maybe wanted to see something that's.
2:13:29
Yeah. Yeah.
2:13:32
So then I was like, 'cause I was trying to Rev away or drive away
2:13:35
and I had the car at full lock. That's a risky movie.
2:13:37
And for me to not get it to turn off, I'm like boom, boom, boom,
2:13:41
boom, boom. You know what I'm saying?
2:13:42
Like, so then the cop looked at me and I looked at him.
2:13:47
I'm like you were. You were waiting for him to go.
2:13:51
No, so that. I.
2:13:53
Left. I might have.
2:13:54
I might have. I might have let go a little
2:13:58
quickly and then it just. Said.
2:14:02
Fucking. You get this in front of.
2:14:04
The car down terminal A. Oh my.
2:14:07
Oh, at the airport. So it's a federal offense?
2:14:10
And then? Nobody would be on the but as a.
2:14:14
Slowly. As a big jail.
2:14:16
As. I'm slowly letting go.
2:14:18
Like. Going, going, going forward,
2:14:20
like I as soon as I like go with a break, it's like I hit the
2:14:23
brake as soon as I go to the break, I look over to my right
2:14:26
and the cop is just. Dang, he did not care.
2:14:30
And I'm like, OK. He's like, that's not my job.
2:14:32
I'm gone. I'm.
2:14:33
Sitting. There, those are the best cops.
2:14:37
They've had cops tell us they pull into the lot and they go,
2:14:41
can you show us something? And we're like.
2:14:43
They did that back in the day and then they're like, all
2:14:46
right. Guys go home and then you're
2:14:48
like, has it. You're like, this is a trap.
2:14:50
It feels like a trap, Yeah. Caught dead to rights.
2:14:53
Like I was in the parking lot somewhere, girl in the car and
2:14:58
like. Unnecessary detail, yeah.
2:15:00
Unnecessary detail because I was.
2:15:03
Showing off I was showing off for.
2:15:05
Her like she had never been drifting.
2:15:07
We were in the we were in the drift car like just going out to
2:15:09
eat or something like that. Fourteen.
2:15:10
Yeah, we're in the 14 and she'd never been drifting.
2:15:13
And I'm like, we do a couple Donuts.
2:15:16
I go to a spot, I'm doing Donuts and I'm just going.
2:15:18
To do a couple Donuts. And roll out.
2:15:20
It got good to me and like I I might have downshifted and I
2:15:24
might have put my foot like it got good to me.
2:15:26
And as I'm transitioning, I see cop coming around the bend.
2:15:30
Shut it down, pull out. Cop pulls in front of me.
2:15:32
He's like, So what you doing? And I go my foot.
2:15:38
Slipped off the clutch. And.
2:15:40
He fell out laughing. He's like, he's like, this is
2:15:46
probably probably get out of here, like.
2:15:48
That's how it should be. Like that's how it always was,
2:15:51
yeah. But it must be.
2:15:52
Really fun. That's how I feel like it always
2:15:55
was, and now I can't even really expect that because.
2:15:58
I'm The thing is, yeah, I, I haven't drifted like that in a
2:16:00
long time, So. And you don't really mess around
2:16:02
on the street that much, do you remember?
2:16:04
If I have uncle of. Die.
2:16:07
Die. Yoshihara not.
2:16:10
Not Yoshihara, the older guy, the one that crashed the option
2:16:13
350Z. You might know no?
2:16:17
Anyway, he was out St. drifting with some some guys and the cop
2:16:20
came though he's like yo you're old why are you doing this?
2:16:23
That's. Going to be mad.
2:16:25
He gave him a ticket because he was like, you should know better
2:16:30
it. Was hilarious.
2:16:32
That's going to be happening to us.
2:16:33
That's how I feel. I'm like cops sees Gray, Gray
2:16:36
hairs. What are you doing?
2:16:37
Bro, yeah, they look at your age and go, wait, what?
2:16:39
Right. And you go, yeah, that's how you
2:16:41
know I'm not going to take over, right?
2:16:42
Exactly. So let me go.
2:16:44
Yeah, I, I go ahead. I.
2:16:46
Think there's only like. I guess there's two more JB
2:16:51
Media if someone wants to get into drifting.
2:16:53
What is the car you recommend? A RX8.
2:17:00
Stop now. I honestly really shy.
2:17:03
I hate to say this, but it's Z350Z.
2:17:05
Yeah. Z is right now.
2:17:07
ZG. Yeah, ZMG, the ZMG.
2:17:10
Yes. Value.
2:17:11
Wise, yeah, G is cheaper. Z's are going up.
2:17:14
Yeah, G's are a little bit easier because they're longer.
2:17:18
But I also feel like like I would just recommend that car
2:17:21
because I want to see people drifting that over a BMW.
2:17:24
Is a BMWA good entry level cartoon?
2:17:27
It was, but it was. There's a lot, there's a a
2:17:30
higher cost to entry in like an E36 because there are things
2:17:35
that you need to do to it to get it to be really reliable prices
2:17:38
versus you could get into a stock G and drift it for years.
2:17:41
As is. As is, without having to do
2:17:43
anything to it, you're. Daily it, drive it every day,
2:17:45
you know. You're gonna have to do subframe
2:17:46
reinforcements on a on an E36 immediately.
2:17:50
Right away, yeah. Medium unless you get an.
2:17:53
Engineering. That's why I had a fun.
2:17:56
No, it's so thick. What did you need, Malcolm?
2:17:58
The Sprint Slava? What is it?
2:18:02
The the fucking Einschleibun. Einschleibun.
2:18:05
You need to get an Einschleibun This.
2:18:07
Is cool. I'm hungry for the watch.
2:18:09
Bugger. All right, FRS, Zach, last
2:18:13
question. What's the biggest challenge
2:18:14
you've faced as a team? I guess relevant question the.
2:18:19
Lack of. Do you want me to answer that
2:18:21
question for real? For real the.
2:18:22
Lack of titties in our group. Shit, there's only one pair.
2:18:26
Yeah, yeah, there's only one pair.
2:18:29
There's. No titties in ours, that's for
2:18:32
sure. You know what's crazy is she
2:18:34
rips. She's nice.
2:18:36
She. She.
2:18:38
Really. Her boyfriend has a story?
2:18:41
He just got a story. He's he's fast, too.
2:18:43
Yeah. I'm sorry, are we?
2:18:45
Khalib. Oh, OK, I thought.
2:18:47
Normal questions right there. Yeah, I thought I was like, are
2:18:50
we talking about Sharon La Ron? No, no.
2:18:53
No, she rips too bro. I was going to say sharks
2:18:55
sometimes drives crazy style and I'm like.
2:18:57
Yo. No, she went off at she did.
2:19:00
She was cooking. No and.
2:19:02
Now they're both Yeah, dude, they.
2:19:04
Do. Crazy shout out to shout out to
2:19:05
our little sister Brianna. She, she's down in down in
2:19:09
Georgia. She reps Lanier all the time.
2:19:11
So yeah, shout out. Good.
2:19:12
Style. Yeah, she's in the style.
2:19:14
Yeah. Drives well, her dude drives
2:19:17
well, yeah, and they're good people, so.
2:19:20
She she doesn't. We we didn't answer the
2:19:22
question. She doesn't know all.
2:19:25
She doesn't know all. She is like, that's yeah, she
2:19:28
doesn't know how dope. She but but.
2:19:29
OK, the question was the struggles.
2:19:31
The struggles, OK. People paying flipping
2:19:34
attention, bro, it's I don't, I don't like, I don't like telling
2:19:40
people what to do right. But sometimes you have to like
2:19:43
to corral folks, which is why we have a good thing going between
2:19:48
me, Ryan and Justin. We're three different
2:19:50
personalities and so different situations.
2:19:55
One of us will take the lead. But if it was just like one
2:19:58
person running the whole thing, it wouldn't work.
2:20:01
I don't think it would work. But we we have a a good group of
2:20:04
guys, but organizing is very difficult, Very, very difficult,
2:20:10
especially with how spread out we are.
2:20:14
And then drifting is just expensive, you know what I mean?
2:20:16
So like to to have an event in a place that is amenable to
2:20:22
everybody. Yeah, that's very hard.
2:20:25
That's, to be honest, What I would probably say is like the
2:20:27
biggest struggle is like making everybody happy because
2:20:30
everybody wants what Daryl's going to have tomorrow is an
2:20:35
event in their backyard. Backyard.
2:20:37
You know what I mean, everybody wants that, but I think one of
2:20:40
the things that we try and do is, you know, we really only do
2:20:43
like big events once a year. So we want to have an event
2:20:46
that's going to be a destination style event that's worth driving
2:20:49
to. You know, we went to US Air,
2:20:51
we've been to Mid Pond, we've been, you know, we're now up
2:20:53
here. I was going to ask, how many
2:20:54
have you done so far? Five.
2:20:56
Yeah, it's been 55 totals. And that doesn't kind of like
2:20:59
the side question. Yeah.
2:21:00
And then we, there's always, so a lot of times we'll have a main
2:21:03
event and then we'll do a side, there'll be a side quest event
2:21:05
like, you know, like. Like 15 of us went to nappy boy.
2:21:10
Yeah, and then Darrell can't. That nappy boy was a side quest.
2:21:13
Darrell came down and randomly and did Piedmont with us, you
2:21:18
know, last year. So like there's we try and do
2:21:22
these destination events we're already starting to plan like
2:21:24
where we want to look at, you know, for the next for the next
2:21:27
upcoming years because we wanted to be something that is worth
2:21:30
talking about. OK, I wasn't gonna say that, but
2:21:32
yeah, I'll say it. Yeah, New Orleans 2025, we've
2:21:39
got, we've got some of our guys that are from that area like.
2:21:42
I bought fucking love it down there.
2:21:43
Grew up, grew up, came up at NOLA Mortisports Park.
2:21:47
Dude, I. So.
2:21:48
This is weird, but we went cross country for Super D years ago.
2:21:53
Yeah, and we were at a bar somewhere down there and they
2:21:55
were talking about that and we had no idea.
2:21:57
What the fuck? Talking.
2:21:59
About about that tracker. Noah Motorspace, yeah, yeah, OK.
2:22:02
And. Then it's fun.
2:22:03
Yeah, 'cause they saw drifting on our shirts or whatever.
2:22:05
And OK, OK. Yeah.
2:22:06
And I was like, oh, I don't never heard about that, but.
2:22:08
Yeah, we need to go you. Know I want to go.
2:22:10
I wonder if it was after 'cause I think they did like a grid
2:22:13
life there because that's where that video where Larry Chan went
2:22:16
through Bourbon Street with like Ryan Literal.
2:22:22
I think this was 2. 1017 or 18? Yeah, that might have been
2:22:26
around that time, 'cause there was a video, there was a Larry
2:22:28
Chan video. They got popular because Ryan
2:22:30
Literal I think it was Simba and like a couple other people took
2:22:37
their D cars from where they were at NOLA and they actually
2:22:39
drove to New Orleans, the actual city, and went through bourbon
2:22:43
and went through. Bourbon, he got pulled over
2:22:45
brother cop and he was like, yes, he cops are great.
2:22:48
That's just nice. Exactly.
2:22:50
Yeah, exactly. Yeah, every time.
2:22:56
Dude, I had a good time every time I've been there.
2:22:58
Yeah, but no, that's that's the thing.
2:22:59
So one of the things is like we try and cater to as well as like
2:23:02
what Obie's getting ready to do for, you know, for us tomorrow
2:23:05
is introduce us to where you got introduced to drifting and like
2:23:08
get an opportunity to introduce us to your your drift family and
2:23:11
where you came from. That's part of the reason why I
2:23:13
like, even though I couldn't bring my car, like I'm super
2:23:15
excited to be here. I'm super excited to meet all
2:23:18
these people that you guys been talking about and he's been
2:23:20
telling stories about and I've heard for years.
2:23:22
And then we're going to do that next year with the guys, you
2:23:24
know, you know, the guys from NOLA and then, you know, being
2:23:27
able to to meet these and see where you came from and drift
2:23:30
your track and like, oh, that's that turn you've.
2:23:32
Been talking about it's a blow because so many people weren't
2:23:35
able to bring their cars. This.
2:23:36
Year. I know I'm feeling that way
2:23:37
right now. Yeah, one dude, his car caught
2:23:40
on fire. Another dude is he's having a
2:23:43
second kid. Some people with job scheduling
2:23:48
issues, it's I mean, but we still have a we have 26 drivers,
2:23:53
26 drivers coming, yeah. So it's still gonna be a good
2:23:55
time, but yeah, it's. Gonna be fun.
2:23:56
Some of the big dudes that have been there since the beginning
2:23:59
aren't gonna go. But that's why the side quests
2:24:01
are super important too, because you don't feel like you miss out
2:24:04
completely. Like we're gonna be trying to
2:24:06
drive CMP. They're having a 2 day event
2:24:10
there, I think August 3rd and 4th.
2:24:12
So you know, even though I can't drive this, I'm going
2:24:14
immediately home as soon as I can hear it.
2:24:16
Get my car prepped for that I'm. Gonna be so broke though I'm
2:24:19
going to try and make it happen. But what?
2:24:21
What's? Who needs money anyway?
2:24:23
All right. You want to read some of these
2:24:26
questions? OK, some of them, some crazy
2:24:30
must get. Yeah.
2:24:32
This one's from Damien of Car shop Karochi.
2:24:34
That's my boy. He said ask Obi if we need to
2:24:38
bring back drift team. Fanboy.
2:24:42
Yo, fanboy. I still have that sticker.
2:24:44
It was me, Damien. Oh my goodness, that's 14. 11.
2:24:50
With the RPF ones Marley. Oh shit, yeah.
2:24:54
That's my boy. Who else?
2:24:57
I can't remember the whole group, but that was that was
2:24:59
back in the day when we used to go to the Oval in State Park
2:25:02
State College. Remember that?
2:25:04
No, it's a Harley-Davidson dealership.
2:25:06
The fuck that has an Oval in the back you haven't heard about?
2:25:10
That no the figure. Eight thing I don't think I
2:25:12
have. They did do a crossover in the
2:25:14
middle state state. It's like towards to.
2:25:18
The middle college. State near Penn State.
2:25:20
This isn't like a big no. They would go drift at a stadium
2:25:23
or something down there. No, it wasn't a stadium.
2:25:25
This is like in the middle of a field.
2:25:27
Yeah, no, I definitely never heard of.
2:25:29
This that was, that was back in the day, that was, yeah, Davey's
2:25:33
good. I seen some.
2:25:33
Color was Marley's car blue. Oh, it was blue with the yellow
2:25:37
wheels. Yeah, that's when he was.
2:25:38
SR20. Yes, I have a picture of that
2:25:41
when he was getting it worked on, I think at one motion.
2:25:44
Man. Miley's a Ripper too, man.
2:25:46
Yeah, he makes RPF ones look good.
2:25:49
Not many can do that. You've been trying to do this
2:25:53
for the. Last year bro.
2:25:55
RPF. Is good.
2:25:56
They're a nice if. You get the aggressive spec with
2:25:59
like the the deep where the nuts go pause, you've.
2:26:04
Been pausing a lot. Because Nick Delesio, his FD,
2:26:09
they don't. Nick Delesio's FD car had those
2:26:12
first. And that car looked good.
2:26:13
It was nice with the SBC and then I think he went white or
2:26:16
did he go from white to the to the Chrome ones?
2:26:18
White or SBC is probably the only two colors you should do,
2:26:22
no? Any other play?
2:26:23
So no. It's about the right and like
2:26:28
the tire size. Damn true it looks.
2:26:31
Really good. Can I ask a question F1 car
2:26:34
people don't realize that like it's it's came directly from an
2:26:38
F1 car if. R if RPF ones look so good, why
2:26:40
don't you have a set? Because I have I have a
2:26:44
hierarchy of wheels that I want. That does not include RPF ones.
2:26:50
My retirement plan is to have those specific wheels, no RPF
2:26:54
ones would come after. There's not many monoblocks
2:26:57
wheels that I want, you know what I mean?
2:26:59
So it's all three piece joints that I'm really after.
2:27:01
Hit us with another one before they start fighting, yeah.
2:27:04
What's the best track food or snack?
2:27:07
This is from Wags. This is the one.
2:27:09
This is our friend who I got the excess from.
2:27:12
Oh. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
2:27:13
Shout out Wags. The best track food or snacks
2:27:15
Shout out Joanna. Oh God, not the lettuce sandwich
2:27:19
with the ham. What?
2:27:20
Joe sandwiches. Because it is.
2:27:23
Because it always right on time. Like I'm telling you, I'm coming
2:27:29
off track. Pause, frustrated.
2:27:31
Like because my car's not. Driving away that I pause when
2:27:34
you say coming and come on I. Don't want because.
2:27:37
Because I I'm having a hard time and pause.
2:27:40
Joe comes and Joe comes up and hands me a sandwich.
2:27:47
Best sandwich? 'Cause she's mom, she knows when
2:27:49
you're about to, like, pass out from hungry.
2:27:51
Yeah, but that's what I do. I don't eat all day.
2:27:54
I don't eat breakfast, I don't eat lunch, I don't drink water.
2:27:57
And you know what I mean? Like I have a migraine at the
2:27:59
end of the day. They're.
2:28:00
Like why do I feel so bad? I will say she she came to me
2:28:04
once and he was here's some you want some goldfish?
2:28:07
I was like, how did you know that?
2:28:08
Like, yeah, I don't. Know what you should know I be.
2:28:11
At the right. The driver Whisperer.
2:28:14
And I just ate the whole bag. The best drink is someone
2:28:17
else's. Lime hurry.
2:28:20
Lime Lime Fig. Daryl's Lime.
2:28:22
Hurry, it's. Fresh out the cooler.
2:28:26
Yeah, and drink it in front of them.
2:28:28
So bring bring your own snacks. During the for a track day, this
2:28:31
is where I pack cigarettes, a Red Bull and a bottle of water
2:28:34
and then I'm. Ready for the day, baby?
2:28:36
You have not hit 30, have you? I'm about to.
2:28:39
Wait. Wait till you hit 30.
2:28:41
Your life is going to change. I'm about to be Frankie's age,
2:28:44
dude. I'm about to be.
2:28:47
Wait till the metabolism changes.
2:28:50
I'm 29. Wait.
2:28:52
That's a good year, man. Yeah.
2:28:54
Yeah, I had somebody tell me the other day that I, oh, I would
2:28:59
have said 24. And I was like, yeah.
2:29:03
That's yeah, you don't look 29, I mean, but you have the the OR
2:29:07
the maturity of an older person. No, no, no, no.
2:29:10
He's the maturity of a 14 year. Old wow, wow.
2:29:16
He didn't even argue that. He.
2:29:19
Knows it's true. Yeah, Who has the best style on
2:29:22
the team? Uh oh.
2:29:24
Not here, because I do. Yeah, right.
2:29:27
No comment. Who has the best style on your
2:29:28
own team? My car is broken in half and and
2:29:31
taken. Who's number 2?
2:29:33
Miyagi's no AJ's. Which one is AJ?
2:29:36
It's. A copper nickel, Yeah, it's a.
2:29:38
Copper. Nickel.
2:29:40
It's not even copper. You want to show them the cars
2:29:43
since we have no fucking photos of anything man.
2:29:45
No photos of, none of. This We built these two C cars
2:29:47
and then never drifted them. It's just but Wall of Frankie.
2:29:50
There's not one blue eye. I was.
2:29:51
Thinking about that, when I saw that, I was like, we need to
2:29:53
just get some more different photos over there.
2:29:55
No, those are dope though. They need to be bigger.
2:29:58
This is a. That's a convert nickel.
2:30:00
That's one of my favorite. That is the inspiration for the
2:30:03
IS, yeah. Bomax.
2:30:05
Bomax. Oh damn, that's a nice photo.
2:30:08
Yeah, damn. Those are the blitz.
2:30:14
Those are the blitz. Not the O3's, but those blitz.
2:30:17
Yes, that photo is sick. Those are like the the
2:30:20
multisplug blitz. Yeah, yeah, those are my
2:30:23
favorite blitz. AJ we need that.
2:30:25
He's not watching this shit. If anyone's watching this and
2:30:27
they know the photographer I need that printed, I'll pay for
2:30:30
it. This.
2:30:30
No. The other one that was on a cart
2:30:32
track. The one with him, Cook.
2:30:34
This one. That's.
2:30:35
Nice that do be. Like Jonathan Seesay.
2:30:39
Yeah, I need, definitely need that.
2:30:41
DMM. 'Cause that that can go in here
2:30:43
somewhere. Yep.
2:30:44
But yeah, so we built these two sick cars, we built this, and
2:30:46
then we built a Cresedo. Dude I got to drive that once
2:30:50
and literally I made it my. Cresedos are good.
2:30:53
I. Heard so many key takeaways.
2:30:55
I see the wing. From this.
2:30:56
Car. I see the.
2:30:57
Wing, the way the wing was painted, like the the dude
2:31:01
that's me driving it right there.
2:31:03
Is it really? Yes, that is me driving it and
2:31:06
then it's on. 95. Even that the black and white
2:31:09
one looks good too. Yeah.
2:31:11
That. Looks sick.
2:31:13
I mean the. Floor looks good too.
2:31:15
Damn, someone just mopped I guess.
2:31:18
What is it about mismatched wheels that looks?
2:31:21
That was a good event. That was the first time.
2:31:23
For the drift. That was the first time I really
2:31:25
hung out with everyone. I.
2:31:27
Have never been to an FD event. We're going next year.
2:31:30
Yeah, we're going next year. It was you.
2:31:32
Probably start going to Atlanta. Atlanta is the best round that's
2:31:35
right here. Every other round is trash if
2:31:37
you haven't been to Atlanta. Wall, NJ.
2:31:39
Wall, NJ was fun. That's back.
2:31:42
In a day, that's the one I would have went to.
2:31:44
But it was. See.
2:31:45
That's why. That's why Atlanta is so much
2:31:47
fun. Because you can all get drunk
2:31:48
and it's a horror on and shit. Yeah, it's a party.
2:31:52
Like I've I've watched the guy fall off an ambulance.
2:31:56
You have the cresada? No, I'm going to show him that
2:31:59
cresada. In the meantime, to answer your
2:32:01
question, Dustin. Yes, that's what I was going to
2:32:04
say. Dustin is.
2:32:05
That's the best. Which one is?
2:32:07
Which one is Dustin? You have seen his cars, they all
2:32:10
look very similar, but his fitment, his panel gap.
2:32:16
Oh, OK. He built, he built a what's that
2:32:19
wide body? Oh, not off to a great story.
2:32:22
No, no, no, no, no. A legit wide body blister.
2:32:26
BM Blister. Yeah, OK, that's, that's nice.
2:32:29
I like. BM Blister when he's.
2:32:31
Taking out the real photos for this.
2:32:32
Oh wow, oh wow. There's a roof, the roof, the
2:32:35
roof. This was ours.
2:32:38
This is my friend. That's the car that doesn't
2:32:39
drive anymore. This is sitting.
2:32:40
In a fucking garage for the last year and a half.
2:32:43
Side note, I just want to say Will says.
2:32:45
Can't wait to get. To the red car tomorrow.
2:32:47
That's my boy. Just just got some competition
2:32:50
as a red car. Yo that wing.
2:32:52
The roof, the roof, Brad, the roof.
2:32:54
That's crazy. And like, look at that's right.
2:32:56
That's. Ranky Driving.
2:32:57
That's not me. Where's the roof?
2:33:00
Where's the roof? So it's on eighteens, yeah.
2:33:03
But that's. Fine, but the body kit is built
2:33:05
for a car on like fucking sixteens, so it's kind of hard
2:33:08
to make it look like low, you know what I mean?
2:33:11
But we tried. It's drivable though.
2:33:13
It is. It's man.
2:33:15
Not really, to be honest. With you, no, but rubs.
2:33:17
Yeah, because the front tire size is a 35 sidewall in order
2:33:21
to get it to sit that low and. Yeah.
2:33:24
Is this 1718? Unfortunately no, but I'm
2:33:27
thinking maybe we should do that.
2:33:28
I don't know. I.
2:33:29
Don't like 1718? I like 1819 but I don't know why
2:33:33
1718. Looks weird to me. 1718 can look
2:33:36
good, but I didn't think it was going to look good on this car
2:33:38
for some. Reason S thirteens S13 hatches
2:33:42
come pull off 1718 for me. Yeah.
2:33:45
But I don't generally like that. Dude.
2:33:48
That that car is sick. Yeah, the other ones.
2:33:50
The other questions were just ridiculous, yeah.
2:33:53
I wish we had a picture of Dustin's car.
2:33:56
Cars man, do you have? His Instagram?
2:33:58
Does he have an Instagram? Yeah, it's under score Dusty, I
2:34:01
think. Dusty.
2:34:02
Oh Lord, I know you're talking. About bro that's not dude.
2:34:05
OK, so you know his, you know his he's.
2:34:07
Who I was drifting with in in Queens and shit.
2:34:08
Oh, you see? Yeah, a small world.
2:34:10
That's crazy. That's crazy.
2:34:12
So you know you've seen his. Dusty has the best out.
2:34:15
I don't think I I probably did. It's very simple.
2:34:18
I mean, building a, like Hertz said, it's really about the
2:34:22
wheels in the right light. That's.
2:34:23
Yeah, that's all that matters, right?
2:34:25
Dustin Delavan? Yeah.
2:34:27
Yes bro, he was literally like we started drifting together,
2:34:30
you know what I mean? Like.
2:34:31
This one. Bro.
2:34:33
Yeah, Dustin is. That's why our cars are fucking
2:34:36
being sport hatches like. Style King it's.
2:34:38
The same shit. Here style king.
2:34:40
Hey, Frankie. I don't know.
2:34:42
That's kind of above and beyond what you got going on.
2:34:45
Right now. He like.
2:34:48
Yeah, he kept. That's that man's personal.
2:34:52
Life, it's great to the early ones.
2:34:54
See if you can see the blister one that he did way back.
2:34:59
I think he got it from my dude Gary.
2:35:00
Dustin's going to be mad at us for showing his personal life.
2:35:03
I know. It's not a real, I feel like you
2:35:05
piloting right now live on that. Car.
2:35:07
That's it. That was a classic.
2:35:09
Ironically, Justin lives in Florida now.
2:35:13
Now. Wow.
2:35:14
Makes you Justin. The the annoying part is Dustin
2:35:16
didn't build any of these cars so he was in Florida.
2:35:19
Right. As soon as he left the area,
2:35:21
it's like he went crazy. Yeah, it's.
2:35:22
Probably because he was bored. That's probably.
2:35:27
What it was, Nah, he was soaking up like that nation gap.
2:35:29
On that motherfucker. I'm telling you bro, I don't
2:35:32
see. A panel gap on that bitch.
2:35:33
And I'm not a fan of VS kit. That's the Z 32 I was talking.
2:35:36
About yeah, that's pretty cool too.
2:35:38
Yeah, I don't. I don't care for Kwamis and I
2:35:41
don't care for VSKS. But you love that car.
2:35:42
He makes me like him on whatever he builds.
2:35:45
Yeah. That's how you know the car's
2:35:47

2:39:03
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is another episode of Faction
2:39:07
After Hours podcast. And we got jerk chicken after
2:39:10
that. Yeah, smelled good.
2:39:11
I had to dip but you guys looked like you were enjoying.
2:39:13
It was good. And they approved.
2:39:14
So really, yeah, damn. I was talking to OB.
2:39:18
Well, OB was talking about something, talking about being
2:39:22
Jamaican. And then he's like, yeah, the
2:39:23
food, this and that down South. I was like, oh, I love Jamaican
2:39:26
food. I was like, he said something
2:39:28
jerk chicken. I was like, Oh, well, I was
2:39:30
like, fuck it, we'll order it right now.
2:39:32
And he's like, all right, all right.
2:39:33
And then I started getting worried.
2:39:34
I was like wait. He's going to be a real critic.
2:39:36
Yeah, I was like, wait a minute, if he doesn't approve that, then
2:39:40
my life's going to be ruined. But he said it is good.
2:39:42
And they said just a, just a what do you call it?
2:39:46
I guess pro tip he said if it tastes if jerked chicken tastes
2:39:52
good straight out of the fridge then it's good jerk chicken
2:39:56
like. Cold.
2:39:57
Oh, OK. Yeah, I'm like, that's probably,
2:39:59
that's probably a good way to base that.
2:40:00
Yeah, got that good flavour even when it's cold.
2:40:03
I'm still hungry right now, Damn.
2:40:06
Didn't you have Didn't? I don't want to talk about it.

2:40:20
I, I don't know. I mean, I know I've probably met
2:40:23
OB before, but to be honest with you, I don't know when that was
2:40:26
and how many years ago that was. So to me, it was like I was
2:40:30
really meeting him for the first time.
2:40:32
Yeah, and you probably met him briefly at the black dude's
2:40:34
drift, no? Yeah.
2:40:35
Were they? Were they saying they were
2:40:37
there? I think so, yeah.
2:40:39
Yeah, then I must have probably. The thing is, actually, I didn't
2:40:42
really meet too many people there.
2:40:43
I met more people when we did the podcast that night.
2:40:46
That was when I met people. But yeah, dude, that was, that
2:40:52
was awesome. Those guys are awesome.
