Transcript
- 0:00What's going on guys? Welcome back to another episode
- 0:02of the After Hours podcast. On today's episode, we are
- 0:06talking to the infamous Derek Smith, also known as Derek on
- 0:09the Bicycle. It's pretty crazy how well known
- 0:12Derek has become over the last probably 5 to 10 years.
- 0:16But if you haven't already, check out his Instagram Derek on
- 0:20the bicycle. He's a, he's a friend of ours,
- 0:22friend, good friend of Carl's and he's just been in the
- 0:25drifting community for a while now.
- 0:26So we always tease about having him on and we decided tonight
- 0:30was a night so enjoy. This podcast is sponsored by
- 0:35East Coast Drift School. East Coast Drift School is a
- 0:37driving school focused on learning the art of drifting,
- 0:40conveniently located at the greatest drifting facility in
- 0:43the United States, Raceway Park in English Town, New Jersey.
- 0:46Raceway Park currently has three tracks, so you will have a few
- 0:49options to choose from when setting up your lessons.
- 0:52Chris Knapp, who is part of the Raceway Park family, will be
- 0:54your teacher as he guides you through car setup and technique.
- 0:57If you are more of a seasoned driver, E Coaster School is also
- 1:00the place where you can get some extra seat time.
- 1:02Chris allows private track time when no instructing as well so
- 1:05that you can get some test and tune runs in before that big
- 1:07event or competition you have coming up.
- 1:09Instead of spending the night dodging the police with your
- 1:11boys, consider signing up with E Coaster School the next time
- 1:14they release their schedule. Chris releases the schedule on
- 1:17the 16th of every month through Instagram.
- 1:19Make sure to check them out, give them a follow, and shoot
- 1:21over a direct message when you are ready to set up a date.
- 1:24You can find them on Instagram at East Coaster School.
- 1:27This podcast is also sponsored by Automotive Specialty Wraps.
- 1:31Automotive Specialty Wraps is a company specializing in paint
- 1:34protection, film vehicle wraps, ceramic coatings, and window
- 1:37tinting located in Fairlawn, New Jersey.
- 1:40Owned and operated by car enthusiasts and Drifters, their
- 1:42technicians have over 10 years of experience in the industry.
- 1:45Ceramic coating is one of their specialties and is the service
- 1:48they offer that caught my eye first.
- 1:50In the 60s, NASA and the US military formulated a ceramic
- 1:54coating to be used on spacecraft and planes.
- 1:57This coating would be able to protect them from harsh
- 1:59conditions. Following that, in the early
- 2:022000s, ceramic coatings were revamped to be used in the
- 2:05automotive industry. These coatings give your cars
- 2:08paint extra protection while also making it shine.
- 2:11Wax only last for a couple of weeks at most, but ceramic
- 2:14coatings last for a year or longer.
- 2:17They perform a full 2 stage Polish to the car beforehand to
- 2:20make sure the vehicle is in perfect condition before
- 2:22applying the coating. This service can also be applied
- 2:25to wheels which would be the best thing you can do to a new
- 2:27set of wheels you just picked up if you are looking to protect
- 2:29them for years to come. As mentioned, they also offer
- 2:32window tinting and paint protection film installations.
- 2:35Now everyone knows what window tinting is, but these guys offer
- 2:38carbon or ceramic tinting depending on your needs.
- 2:41Paint protection film or PPF is a great idea for those new
- 2:45vehicle owners that want to protect their paint before it
- 2:47gets chipped up driving down the highway.
- 2:50I always suggest having at least the front end done in PPF like
- 2:53the front bumper, fenders and hood.
- 2:56ASW is now offering mobile detailing and this is no basic
- 2:59car wash, it's more of a 2 hour spa session for your car using
- 3:02special soaps designed to extract toxins out of your
- 3:06paint. And the best part is they will
- 3:07come to your house, job or even our shop when your car is being
- 3:11serviced to get the wash done. From protecting your tow rigs
- 3:14exterior to full livery installations on your drift car,
- 3:17they have you covered. You can contact them at
- 3:19automotive specialtywraps.com and make sure to mention our
- 3:22podcast. They are currently offering 10%
- 3:25off mobile washes and tinting services for our listeners.

- 4:06I'm currently digging their compact intercooler sprayer
- 4:09reservoir kit. This kit includes a pump and
- 4:11pigtail to wire it up to any switch you want.

- 7:48You just made a new name for that Drifting on a budget.
- 7:52Oh yeah, I was drifting on a budget.

- 7:55Because thank you for thank you for coming on, by the way, Derek
- 7:57doesn't just like fucking just have free to actually.
- 8:00I mean, Derek's at your house every other day.
- 8:02That's. Not.
- 8:03True, that's not get the mic, get the I want to.
- 8:05Get there on the weekends, every other weekend maybe.
- 8:12It depends. It depends on how heavy we are
- 8:14on the driving season. This this past weekend.
- 8:16It was funny because like the whole morning, I didn't hear
- 8:20from Derek. Usually it's a Sunday.
- 8:22It was. I think we were going to have
- 8:23some good. We had pretty good weather,
- 8:25yeah. And.
- 8:26I I literally see Derek and one of his stories and just mess.
- 8:29If you follow Derek on Instagram, you know what I'm
- 8:31talking. Like if.
- 8:32You don't follow Derek on Instagram.
- 8:33You better start right now because that shit is crazy.
- 8:36May or may not be a different person on Instagram.
- 8:40I was about to ask you that in a second, but I swiped up and I
- 8:42said, are you pulling up for the Sunday stuff or what?
- 8:47Just all. What's the day stuff?
- 8:50Just not. We just fucking just.
- 8:52Do nothing Sunday. Sunday, yeah, I just, I had to
- 8:56fix the one J real quick. I don't know what I did to it
- 8:58that made it work. And then Daryl was doing
- 9:02something. And I played this, Carl, but it
- 9:04always looks like Fast and Furious at your house.
- 9:06It it's the house, right? It's cliche, but yeah.
- 9:10Yeah, there's just a lot of stuff going on.
- 9:12We all just like the same stuff, so it looks like that.
- 9:14And then you got the BBQ going. We need to get a new grill my
- 9:17grills. You know what it is, Carl's got
- 9:19room for friends to bring their cars there and work on them
- 9:22together. And not only that, he's got room
- 9:23for them to sleep there too. Not all the time, not all the
- 9:26time. You got a full ass basement.
- 9:27Right now we got bumblebees down there.
- 9:29It's what? It's so.
- 9:32They're just in your house. Dude, Joe.
- 9:35Dude, I was just down there like.
- 9:36Me. Too.
- 9:38Me too. And this is how I got it, bro.
- 9:41Joe waited until everyone was like aside and then was like,
- 9:46hey, come here. And I was like, Oh no, like what
- 9:54happened? Didn't you have bees in your?
- 9:56But those were like yellow jackets.
- 9:58Bumble bees. What?
- 10:00What is up with? That where are they coming from?
- 10:03Like the digging? If I fucking.
- 10:07Do they're in your basement? That's the weird part.
- 10:09What I'm worried about is the fact that they're in my
- 10:11basement, which means like the foundation, like the the rafters
- 10:15that are sitting at the bottom of the house are eaten away by
- 10:19these bees and like. Yeah.
- 10:22No, no, no, no. So.
- 10:24Well, you mean. What bees don't eat wood bees.
- 10:26You know bees. Carpenter bees, but they got a
- 10:28forage. Can Carpenter bees eat wood,
- 10:30Malcolm? They came through the dirt.
- 10:32You're you got to figure half your basement is sticking out of
- 10:35the ground. Fuck, or the windows down there,
- 10:39they're gonna be over. He's got, he's got basement
- 10:41windows. They could be going.
- 10:42Joe was thinking maybe like the furnace, but yeah, she, she
- 10:45pulls me over, pulls me aside and goes like, so we have a bee
- 10:50problem. And I was like, no.
- 10:53You thought the wasp? Carpenter bees have several
- 10:56important roles, including pollinating plants and can they
- 10:59eat wood? Oh shit, they could do create
- 11:01nuts and wood, but do they eat it?
- 11:05Oh. That's that.
- 11:07That's them. That's them right there.
- 11:08That that. Guy, dude, I think I seen one of
- 11:10those the. Other day, dude, it was huge
- 11:12that we got a lot of them and they were all like dying in the
- 11:14basement or whatever and Daryl was like, it's 'cause it's cold
- 11:16and they got. No.
- 11:17Yeah, true. It's true.
- 11:18Yeah, so. Then I was like.
- 11:19They're probably going to die off, honestly.
- 11:21They fucking better. Yeah, but you're still going to
- 11:23have a problem next year, so 'cause they already.
- 11:26If they nested like anywhere in that track to your house and how
- 11:30they got inside, for sure they would be alive in the spring.
- 11:33OK. So yeah, you're different on
- 11:34Instagram than in person. Not necessarily.
- 11:40Derek, you're one of the nicest kids I know, Barry.
- 11:42I am very nice. But on the Internet, it looks
- 11:44like you're a thug. No, see, that is not what I was.
- 11:50See. Not that I'm going for anything
- 11:51but. Malcolm, do you agree?
- 11:54With it's just. I just, you know, Malcolm, at
- 11:56the time that I'm conveniently likely to post on my Instagram
- 12:01story about in person things is when people get the best of me.
- 12:06You seem a little stressed when you're posting on.
- 12:08Your like, you know. What I'm saying?
- 12:09Like like the dirt bike shit, like why'd you, what made you
- 12:12get into blocks and shit like that?
- 12:14Like what? What 'cause you'll be out there?
- 12:17You see that's, that's, that's different.
- 12:19That's not something I would like necessarily associate with
- 12:21like being like. No, that's not the.
- 12:24Yeah, you know, I just. You know, I just wanted to make
- 12:27that clear. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 12:28That's, that's like a that's a whole nother thing.
- 12:30Yeah. I don't know if you want to
- 12:31explain that to some people when people when people see.
- 12:35As you guys may know. Yeah, I don't.
- 12:37Drink. I grew up in New York City.
- 12:38I grew up in the Bronx, two blocks from Yankee Stadium and
- 12:45all the Yankee Stadium parking lots.
- 12:46The old stadium or the new oldest stadium?
- 12:48The good one. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
- 12:51The the old school 1, all the like surrounding parking lots
- 12:55for the stadium, like for the events.
- 12:57They used to never like chain them up.
- 12:58They'd leave them open and stuff.
- 12:59So on Sundays, Sunday, fun day, you know, for most dudes in
- 13:03America or like probably around the world, they'd go to this lot
- 13:07hella deep, mad dirt bikes, banshees and 120 fives.
- 13:10And they'd wheelie back and forth and like, you know, I'd
- 13:14hear it, I'd see it and I would just watch.
- 13:16I was a little kid. I'd, that's all I'd see, you
- 13:18know, just holy shit. So that's where you grew up?
- 13:21Yeah. So then you like as you get
- 13:23older, you're just like, all right, I'm going to try to do
- 13:25this shit like like when, when did you do your first wheel?
- 13:28I've always been into, you know, obviously, you know, hence my
- 13:31name is Derek on the bicycle. I, I grew up in the skate park.
- 13:34You know, I've always been on wheels my whole life.
- 13:37Yeah. I was just kind of just since I
- 13:39could get on wheels and get training wheels to two wheels
- 13:42and kind of on forward, you know, so.
- 13:46What's the name of that bike park that you guys Mullally
- 13:49Mullally? Yeah, so that's where I'd see a
- 13:51lot of these guys, like on my way to Mullally Skate Park.
- 13:53I see a lot of this stuff going on growing up, you know, so it
- 13:57was kind of hard to avoid. Do not be afraid of this thing.
- 14:01I I need to hear this because like, OK, so you're on.
- 14:03You're me. You're seeing these guys on the
- 14:04dirt bikes. Yeah, I'm seeing these guys on
- 14:06the dirt bikes and like, you know, it's kind of hard to
- 14:08avoid, you know, it's, it's hard to not see and hard to not get
- 14:10into. Yeah.
- 14:11Same thing with like the cars, you know, like I grew up in the
- 14:15South Bronx. Like I said, a lot of people
- 14:17where I lived had Honda Civics, tuned Supras, RX Sevens.
- 14:23That was a lot. That was a really big thing
- 14:25where I grew up, you know, So me just growing up and just being
- 14:29interested in like just rolling objects and motors, you know,
- 14:32it's kind of just could not avoid it.
- 14:35You know, just it was inevitable that I was going to get into
- 14:37every single thing that I could. What year is this about?
- 14:41I'm old. Same.
- 14:42I'm 31 now. Oh yeah, so we're.
- 14:45Pretty close in age. Yeah, yeah.
- 14:46We're fairly close in age. I wanna say sure.
- 14:49Damn, you're 31. Yeah, he's older than you.
- 14:51I didn't. Come on, Neff.
- 14:55Wow. Yeah, I'm, I'm old as shit.
- 15:01We're old as shit. Come on, Neff, I really thought
- 15:04Derek was your age, but I me too.
- 15:06Yeah. Yeah, not I've been friends with
- 15:07Derek for a decade. Dude, I met her all the craziest
- 15:11way, so I was. Oh no.
- 15:14I was actually on my way to. Wait wait wait, what year was
- 15:16that mullally shit 'cause that was this pre license.
- 15:19Oh yeah, no, no, dude. Oh, it's funny, 'cause yeah, way
- 15:22pre licensed. This was like back in the early
- 15:252000s, like probably 2000 going forward, because I was, I was in
- 15:29the skate park before the World Trade Center fell.
- 15:32Like, for sure. Like, I remember, like, not
- 15:34going to the skate park that day because that happened, Yeah.
- 15:38Jesus Christ. Yeah, you're like 8.
- 15:41Yeah, something like that. I got to do the math in a
- 15:43second, but yeah, close to no probably.
- 15:45Like I was I was 11/20/2001 so you would be. 8-9.
- 15:51You were 11. Something like that, yeah.
- 15:53That means that means you were fully something 'cause I was in
- 15:56the 1st grade like you, you were fully aware.
- 16:01Yeah, I know. Bad shit was going down.
- 16:04Yeah, see, I knew bad shit was going down, but I I didn't get
- 16:07the magnitude of what was like, it's crazy 'cause I actually saw
- 16:10it from my classroom, Like, you know, I saw, Yeah.
- 16:12Do you remember you put your, put your.
- 16:16I know the city needs you. So yeah, I I just didn't
- 16:20understand the magnitude of this situation.
- 16:22You know, like I saw, I saw the kids leaving.
- 16:24I saw the fire trucks and stuff. I seen the smoke and the towers
- 16:27and stuff. I seen the towers not there.
- 16:29Isn't that crazy? You could kind of.
- 16:31I bet you could kind of remember that date.
- 16:32Right now, yeah, I remember. I see like I'm like, I could see
- 16:35like right now from my third grade classroom.
- 16:37That's crazy. Like, I couldn't.
- 16:39There's a building, like, blocking the towers.
- 16:42Like, I couldn't see necessarily see the towers, but you could
- 16:44see the cityscape and you could see the antenna from like, the
- 16:47corner of one of the buildings. And then you could see all the
- 16:49smoke just right behind the building.
- 16:51You just couldn't see it. And then the smoke just got way
- 16:53worse. And then the kids just started
- 16:55dropping like flies out of school.
- 16:56Yeah. And then I got picked up
- 16:57eventually. And yeah, if you do that was
- 17:00that. The words out of school after
- 17:03that, I was about to have to be like Derek, no.
- 17:08No, no. What the hell?
- 17:11Censorship. Yeah, obviously that was
- 17:14absolutely devastating, but like, I don't know, as a kid
- 17:17you're probably that day. You're probably just like, ah,
- 17:19fuck, it's another day. I can't go to the skate park.
- 17:21Fuck. Like that's isn't that wild,
- 17:24'cause I was at a family BBQ. I know.
- 17:26No, I wasn't it. Was school day.
- 17:29I was out of school. I got pulled out of Stair
- 17:31Tuesday for an occasion because maybe somebody was leaving or
- 17:34something like that. I forgot what it was.
- 17:38Fuck. Yeah, I can remember that whole
- 17:39day too. What Where were you at 'cause?
- 17:42I was in school, but then I we got, me and my friend were taken
- 17:46home by his parents and we're like, what?
- 17:50And we were one of the first, I would say.
- 17:53So we were kind of like, what's going on?
- 17:54Oh, 'cause Wes. This was.
- 17:57Yeah, but it was in Westwood. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 18:00And then when once I got home, my mom was watching the news and
- 18:03she's like, yeah, this is going, this is what's going on.
- 18:06I was like, oh, OK, I just want to play with Legos.
- 18:11And then I I remember The Jets flying over over our house.
- 18:14That was crazy. It was crazy.
- 18:15Yeah, through my dad. My dad.
- 18:17There's a lot more. To it, yeah.
- 18:19I didn't I again, I'd never thought about this until
- 18:22afterwards, like maybe more recently and I was like my dad
- 18:26apparently took like a ferry. He worked at New York Life at
- 18:29the time took like a ferry was going to usually takes the light
- 18:33rail. Where was he working?
- 18:35New York Life. Where's that?
- 18:37Somewhere in Manhattan. Yeah.
- 18:39Yeah. It's just like they closed the
- 18:40bridges right away and you can only get back by the ferry.
- 18:43I. I want to say he got lucky
- 18:45somehow and like got on a lot. Of people walk all the way from
- 18:49there to the Bronx. Yeah, that's crazy.
- 18:52But yeah. Yeah, dude, from the Towers to
- 18:55150th St. Yeah, I know a lot of people
- 18:57walked over the bridge, too. Yeah, like all the bridges.
- 19:00She walked over the East River. We were living.
- 19:03Ave. Bridge we were living in Jersey
- 19:05City at the time. So like that's that's really.
- 19:07That's right there, yeah. But fuck.
- 19:10Anyway, me and Derek met each other.
- 19:13That was. It's just like fucking.
- 19:17I mean it's. Good to talk about it because no
- 19:19one. We all live right here, I know.
- 19:22So it was just such. A weird for people to.
- 19:24Think that we've we've lived through such weird shit in our
- 19:27area. That was the that was the end
- 19:28of, that was the most pivotal moment in the country for like
- 19:33the last 100. Years.
- 19:34It changed a lot of stuff. Yeah, it changed a lot of stuff.
- 19:38Shit, we got crazy after that. Jesus.
- 19:42Oh yeah, So, you know, I was driving through my.
- 19:45One Derek. Strolling through Mahwah, I had
- 19:49this DA Integra. Yeah, wait, so now this is.
- 19:53You had an Integra too. We're fast forwarding and we'll
- 19:55tie together. Francis, it's OK.
- 19:56It's OK. I feel back as we already
- 19:59touched it. I feel like we just got to
- 20:00finish. We were like 20.
- 20:01This is now like 2014 because I have my Integra SO 2014.
- 20:06OK. So, so yeah, Derek, you said
- 20:08you're driving around, you're in Mahwah.
- 20:10Are you in Wyckoff? How long did you have your
- 20:13integra? Like a couple years probably
- 20:19sold in 25th 16. OK, because I actually got my
- 20:23first thrift car in 2014. OK, then it might have been no
- 20:29I. Didn't remember, but it was very
- 20:31transitional. I like I went from the Integra
- 20:33kind. No, no.
- 20:34No, no, no, No, no, no, no, No. You're fucking this up.
- 20:36I remember. You were not in Integra.
- 20:39You were. Derek.
- 20:41We were. It was night, I was in my
- 20:44Integra. I think I might have been doing
- 20:46something like delivering pizza or.
- 20:47Did you move by this point 'cause you lived in Rockland
- 20:49area? Right.
- 20:50Yeah, I just moved to Mahwa. I lived in Mahwa for a year.
- 20:54I lived in Mahwa for a year. My mom hated it.
- 20:56She was like, no, I'm not doing this.
- 21:00I mean, they know. I don't know.
- 21:05I went to Ramsey. So like, we just don't like
- 21:07Mahwa. That's it.
- 21:08Yeah, I mean, I never lived up there, but.
- 21:11Yeah, it wasn't really for me. I hike up there as well.
- 21:16Yeah, I was. Good.
- 21:17What? What would Frankie go there?
- 21:18Kinsley's is up there, no. I.
- 21:20That's it. Yeah, Kinsley's is a big spot.
- 21:23I. Talk with Kinsley's so heavily.
- 21:26A lot of police. Yeah.
- 21:29Does that matter to you, Derek? I did back then, yeah.
- 21:31Dude, dude. OK, wait, because this is again
- 21:33How I Met Derek. I, and I don't know if this is
- 21:36going to ring bells for you, but I was driving my Integra.
- 21:38It was a bit curvier of a Rd. by Wyckoff, like right by Pullis
- 21:44St. or whatever. Pullis Ave.
- 21:45I'll get lost in that area. So lost.
- 21:47Bro, I'm like, where am I? It's the only place around here
- 21:49where I'm like, I don't know where.
- 21:50The fuck I am. I don't know where I am.
- 21:51There's no lights, there's never any lights and all the roads.
- 21:54Are just like. Yeah.
- 21:55What's crazy is, is like, being a kid and like, being raised up,
- 21:58and that's where you're driving around casually to go hang out
- 22:00with your friends. You go somewhere else and like,
- 22:03like, oh, this is kind of fucking easy.
- 22:05Yeah. It really helped me learn.
- 22:06Oh, there's blocks. How to drive like I'm like oh
- 22:09OK. But anyway, I'm I'm driving this
- 22:11integral. Behind me there is a Subaru
- 22:16Forester. See.
- 22:18OK, OK, OK, So we're here and then we pull up to the light and
- 22:23Derek pulls up to my right. And I don't know Derek at this
- 22:26time. And you're at it.
- 22:27You're probably like 2122. No younger than that.
- 22:32Younger than that, Yeah, because I was in high school still.
- 22:34Or maybe just fresh out of high school.
- 22:37But Derek pulls up to me and goes yo, blah, blah, blah.
- 22:40We have an exchange, we talk about it and he goes, I think my
- 22:43cousin raced that thing a a month or two ago And I was like,
- 22:50what does your cousin drive? And he was like, he has ADA
- 22:52Integra. And I was like, oh, I smoked
- 22:55that thing dude. Because because then, Derek, now
- 23:00it makes sense that you didn't have that car at that time
- 23:02because I raced his cousin on a. I.
- 23:07Allegedly, that's. Not my cousin by the way.
- 23:08I don't like, I just. You called him your cousin.
- 23:12No, no, He probably called you his cousins.
- 23:15I didn't. Maybe.
- 23:17Nonetheless. Maybe.
- 23:18Maybe it was an. Acquaintance It was an
- 23:19acquaintance or somebody I know the.
- 23:20Guy, I definitely know the Guy I definitely know the.
- 23:23Guy, there's a relation. There's an acquaintance.
- 23:24Cousin, it's kind of a reach. It's kind of.
- 23:26Reach everyone's my cousin, brother.
- 23:27He might have been like, hey, you know, it's my cousin Derek.
- 23:30That's facts. Because Malcolm's my cousin,
- 23:33right? Malcolm.
- 23:34Barely. I ain't.
- 23:34No, I was kidding. But no.
- 23:37So he he pulls up and we allegedly raced on the Ringwood
- 23:41Dam like a month. Or two before I sold the car.
- 23:44After Derek sold the car. After I sold the car.
- 23:46My car had a check engine light and my dog was in the passenger
- 23:48seat and I was on the oncoming traffic side.
- 23:50Stop. Yeah, I met him like at night at
- 23:52this like random light, just like I was in my Integra and I
- 23:55was like, oh shit, another black Integra, like out of light.
- 23:58Yeah, at night. I don't remember that.
- 24:00What I remember is when we ran into each other at Wyckoff,
- 24:03'cause I don't remember you having the car yet, I didn't see
- 24:05you have the DA Integra. I didn't know Matt or anybody
- 24:07maybe. You saw him and you.
- 24:09Didn't, so I don't want to do this here.
- 24:12What? This is the place to do it?
- 24:14Derek, what do you have? I don't know who you saw in that
- 24:20Forester. That wasn't me.
- 24:22No, no, no. Oh no, it's.
- 24:24Not like. That I met you at the light in
- 24:27the Integra that one time. After that it was only me at
- 24:30your house. I don't even have a a suit.
- 24:33No. There was a Forester bra.
- 24:35That was probably his actual cousin to be honest with you,
- 24:38because they all live in that area.
- 24:39Like they're from like that Mahwah Ramsey.
- 24:42Dude, said was I'm telling you. He wasn't like, I'm Derek.
- 24:47No, but I'm telling you, I'm pretty good with things.
- 24:51I bro, it wasn't me. I don't know.
- 24:53If you're out of light, the last thing that you're exchanging is
- 24:55names. Let's face it, if I like your
- 24:57car and you're out of light, I'm not telling you my name and
- 24:59you're not telling me yours. Carl Stein It's not like Biden
- 25:02or. Anything.
- 25:02I'm going to be frank. Hold on, hold on.
- 25:04You're actually the one who told me that you saw him and raced
- 25:07him yourself. When I like the like, the next
- 25:10time I hung out with you were like, yo, I seen your old car
- 25:12and I raced that kid. I've smoked that shit.
- 25:14And I was like, oh word. I can't remember that but I I
- 25:17definitely did smoke him with kisses in the passenger seat.
- 25:20So you never had a Forester? No.
- 25:23No, no, not a family member or anybody.
- 25:26Dude, my family lives in like North Carolina, South Carolina.
- 25:29I got like some relatives in the city but they don't drive.
- 25:32I was the under the impression for years now that that's how we
- 25:35met on Polis Ave. right by that house.
- 25:37So let's hear. Your story.
- 25:40I was on my way to Michael Zeal's house.
- 25:42Yeah, in Mahwah. That's How I Met you, basically.
- 25:46Yeah, Mr. Mike. Yeah, I was on the way to Mike
- 25:48Cosio's house. I was going through the northern
- 25:53part of Mahwah. Like, I don't even know if it
- 25:54was even really Mahwah. Almost.
- 25:56Like New York? But I was in my DA and I was
- 25:59coming up to this light to go straight, and Carl was in the
- 26:02make a left, like, you know, turning left lane.
- 26:04And I just want to be in like, holy shit.
- 26:06Look at this black DC, too. Yeah.
- 26:08And like, I wrote them. I went down.
- 26:09I was like, yo dude, I was like, yo dude, that thing's sick.
- 26:12And he was like, yo, thanks, bro.
- 26:13I was like, yo, like, are you from around here?
- 26:14And like I got his number and stuff.
- 26:16Like I bagged him. I, I can't remember that, what
- 26:20the fuck? So you don't remember that?
- 26:22I don't remember a lot lately. It's that damn Budweiser.
- 26:28Yeah, we kind of just been hanging out ever since then.
- 26:30I feel like, yeah, I've just been.
- 26:31We got it. We, yeah, we got into drifting
- 26:33around the same time. Too, Yeah, that is that is true.
- 26:35But you was always see, so Derek, when when we got into
- 26:39drifting, was always just a little bit more courageous with
- 26:43his ventures and you was acting. Yes.
- 26:46Yeah, you would just start. You was always out there doing
- 26:49some crazy. Shit, I didn't have money, I was
- 26:52poor, so I got BMWs because they were cheap.
- 26:55OK. Was that your first drift car?
- 26:57Was it? BMW E46 E 46 got the thing for
- 27:001500 bucks. Oh, was it the silver one?
- 27:02The silver. One, yeah, on BB S, S and H&R
- 27:05lowering springs. I remember this.
- 27:07Car. I got it from this lady who
- 27:08divorced her husband and took the car.
- 27:11What did lady look like? I don't know, I'm just kidding.
- 27:14Blonde lady, blue eyes. No, she's with her new boyfriend
- 27:18already. Damn.
- 27:19Trying to think she. Had it lined up.
- 27:20Trying to think back to that time I guess BMWs weren't really
- 27:23popular yet. No, right?
- 27:25Remember when I started drifting them?
- 27:26Everybody hated them. Everybody was like, what the
- 27:28fuck are you doing? Yeah, I still do.
- 27:30But yeah, yeah, no, but then. But then they got popular.
- 27:34Yeah, yeah. Yeah, now.
- 27:36They might still be, honestly. Yo, OK when?
- 27:38I came back to it, they got popular.
- 27:40One of you were one of my definitely you and Daryl were
- 27:43one of my first friends where I was able to see the fact that
- 27:46BMWs were being used for drifting.
- 27:51OK, because Fast forward a little bit because I know you've
- 27:54had 1000 cars and we'll circle back on a few of them if you
- 27:57want, but Derek had this red 1 and this red 1 was really like a
- 28:04supercar. Dude, tell me, tell me that
- 28:07what, what year and what year was that car and what was in it
- 28:11aside from meth? Not really meth, but.
- 28:14The chassis was a 1992 I believe.
- 28:17OK, so technically it was 2 door.
- 28:19Yeah, it was a 2 door coupe 1990 two 325I.
- 28:24Whatever the hell that. Means did he always M40?
- 28:29It's a three series, OK. The 25 is for the M52B25
- 28:34variation. OK, they come M52 it's really
- 28:38only M52B25 for that year and M52B28 not really for the 92
- 28:42year, but you know, just for. The but what was in it 'cause
- 28:44you can't a. Two point 2.8.
- 28:47Dash. Two point.
- 28:48Supposedly it was a 2.8 block with a 2.5 head.
- 28:51Is that custom or is that an engine that you can get from
- 28:54somewhere? The motor was put together like
- 28:57Frank Wise by 59 Motors. Dude, all I know is that thing
- 29:02was NA and we were going to H2O once and Derek and Chris were
- 29:07like going at it a little bit on the highway, like from a 40 from
- 29:11from a 30, from A50, like and Derek's car was hanging in.
- 29:16Yeah. And Chris's car was Sr. and Sr.
- 29:19with like AT28 at 12 pounds 10 lbs.
- 29:22Setup it is now, yeah. Derek was, honestly, it was, it
- 29:27was really long. A badge like.
- 29:29And it's NA. It was crazy, my car was
- 29:31actually really slow that day because I I broke my DIF.
- 29:34I usually run a 315 which the car was bad shit fast on, but I
- 29:38had put a 293 in that day so it was a little bit laggier.
- 29:41Why does that seem kind of low? 315 Isn't that a low?
- 29:45It's. Probably got something to do
- 29:47with the ZF gearing. It's way different than Nissan
- 29:49gearing. Dude, that thing was, is that a
- 29:52car that you you miss a little bit?
- 29:54Because that's a car I miss. Yeah, yeah, because I honestly,
- 29:57I did everything that everything that would have like made in E36
- 30:00kind of like finicky was done to that car so.
- 30:03Maybe you just didn't appreciate it at the time.
- 30:06You know what it was? You offered me your car for sale
- 30:08and I wasn't turning that down. Yeah, that's right.
- 30:11You were like, hey, like, do you want to buy this S chassis?
- 30:15It's like, you know, it's got an Sr.
- 30:16It runs mint. Chris built it.
- 30:18I was like, yeah, you know. How much did you sell that?
- 30:20For. It was.
- 30:21Cheap. Yeah, for you, cheap enough for
- 30:23me to sell and like kind of get right into it.
- 30:26It was cheap. How cheap was it called?
- 30:27It was cheap. Cheap enough.
- 30:30If it was less than 5 grand, I'm gonna slap you.
- 30:33Oh my gosh. It's 500 short, yeah.
- 30:36Oh no. It's 4500 bucks. $500.
- 30:40For Sr. swap 240 that looked good.
- 30:45It looked OK. You must have been in a bad
- 30:47time. Yeah, mentally and like all
- 30:49that. I just really wasn't there.
- 30:51I tried to think back on that time and just realize how far
- 30:53I've come as a person. Just like what I like.
- 30:56I mean, you kept going. For a long time right now.
- 30:59I'd be forgetting that I have it.
- 31:01Like I'm like, Oh my God, wow. I'm.
- 31:02Falling into an instant depression thinking about how I
- 31:05don't have that car anymore. Yeah, everyone does when they
- 31:07think about that car it. Was a good car, I mean.
- 31:10Didn't you crash that shit? I backed it up a tree good.
- 31:13I drove. It so.
- 31:14I drove it for a while after that dude, that's that's
- 31:18ultimately why I got. Rid of that chassis though, was
- 31:21ironically first of all I bought it.
- 31:23Sorry, Carl, was that the car you brought here for work at one
- 31:27point? It was in that's chassis, I
- 31:29think it was. Yeah, yeah, probably.
- 31:31I bought that car in the Bronx. No, it was at the Bronx.
- 31:35It was in the Bronx. That's crazy when I bought it.
- 31:38That's crazy. That's where I did most of the
- 31:39driving. It was Chris's car.
- 31:40I had to drive it from the Bronx home with a hole in the rad hose
- 31:45and when I bought coolant at the store, the coolant that I bought
- 31:50had been replaced with water from the.
- 31:54Wait, what I. Bet you got home.
- 31:58Wait. Why?
- 31:59Why? You're saying they made special
- 32:00water? Bro they emptied out the coolant
- 32:02and then filled with water and I spent whatever X amount of
- 32:05dollars on it. My God, it got my ass was the.
- 32:09Plastic seal there. It got me home.
- 32:11I didn't like open it in the store.
- 32:12It's not my first thing to do. But yeah, that's why I bought
- 32:15it. 2 grand and it was running and driving.
- 32:19I switched the hose out with like some other hose I had at
- 32:21home. Paid 2 grand for that thing Sr.
- 32:24No, I I had the Sr., I had the Sr., yeah.
- 32:27See, the E36 was fun, but I developed a lot of my driving in
- 32:30that car. That car, yeah, it was it was a
- 32:32good car, it. Was it was a good Yeah, I
- 32:34remember you in a BMW. You know what my favorite video
- 32:38of Derek in a BMW is? Something on the street, Robert.
- 32:42You know what I'm going to. I'm going to, I might, I might
- 32:45have it saved. I'm going to forward it to
- 32:47Malcolm. But there's a video of of Derek
- 32:52when he gets pretty decent amount of air in it.
- 32:54I've never aired a car more than a foot or two.
- 32:59Maybe, if that is being generous.
- 33:01What did you jump? So it's pretty funny actually.
- 33:06I, I went to high school in this town.
- 33:08I moved out of, out of the Bronx in like 2007.
- 33:11My family moved me up to Rockland County.
- 33:12So I, I technically grew up up there.
- 33:16Well, there's this, I moved up there when I was 14.
- 33:19I think you. Grew up in both in both spots.
- 33:21It's funny because 30 years old makes my, like, official half
- 33:25and half. Like, I lived half my life in
- 33:26the Bronx, half my life in Rockland.
- 33:28Yeah, but like I, I mostly say I kind of grew up there, you know,
- 33:31because I went to high school there and stuff like that.
- 33:33If you went to high school, then.
- 33:34Yeah. Yeah, exactly.
- 33:36But. So there's this jump there.
- 33:40It's not a jump. Derek No.
- 33:42It's. It is.
- 33:43A. There's a Rd.
- 33:44Mild hill. Wait wait, what Rd.
- 33:45In a Rd. You know what Rd.
- 33:47It's in Stony Point where I like.
- 33:50I'm not allowed. I don't think I know the road,
- 33:52maybe. Don't know of another Rd. maybe
- 33:54that, maybe don't. So maybe don't.
- 33:57Maybe don't straight up disclose.
- 33:59I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna. But there's this road in this
- 34:02town up there, OK, up in that area.
- 34:07It's designed like a perfect tabletop for a car, for a car.
- 34:13We used to hit it on dirt bikes and quads and stuff.
- 34:15And like we discovered that like, yo, if you get something
- 34:19back and go 80 plus, you didn't clear it.
- 34:25It's in the woods. So it's like it's kind of it's,
- 34:27it's really sketchy because you got to hit the toll gate to get
- 34:30to 80 miles. You got to know how to drive to
- 34:32get to 80 miles an hour to hit this jump.
- 34:33This isn't a sound ideal at all. No, it's not.
- 34:36Is this on video? Yeah, I said.
- 34:37There's a Malcolm. He's going to put it up here
- 34:38right now. This video is actually I think
- 34:41this video is chopped because of Instagram but like.
- 34:43I want to see this shit. Maybe I saw this at some point,
- 34:47I don't know. Oh my God, he actually.
- 34:49Has. Yeah, No, that's right here.
- 34:51Oh my God. Watch, watch.
- 34:53Ready. So Derek, first of all, I think
- 34:55Daryl is recording if I'm not mistaken.
- 34:57This video is actually. On Find me another E36, I'll
- 35:00wait. Here he goes.
- 35:08I love how you hear the cricket. There you go, There you go.
- 35:19Come back to that. Hey.
- 35:21That's an undisclosed. Location.
- 35:22Too. Yeah.
- 35:25Yeah, see, that's cool. That's what I remember seeing.
- 35:31And I was like, this guy's fucking crazy.
- 35:33That's so see, that's exactly what I was talking about.
- 35:36It might have been posted last year, but this is a really old.
- 35:39So this is the, this is the red one you're.
- 35:41Talking about yeah, yeah. This thing was so fast.
- 35:43Good car, but Daryl always tells that story because.
- 35:47I was there. From from his point of view it
- 35:50it cracks me up. And Derrick apparently like
- 35:53reversed and and like picked him up.
- 35:57From after jumping. Yeah, 'cause he had to get him.
- 36:00Straight backwards, just there's no wouldn't you make AU turn on
- 36:04that road? Really.
- 36:05No. So that's like through.
- 36:07A There's a Cliff on one side and like, you know, it goes up a
- 36:09mountain on the other side. That's fucking hilarious.
- 36:13Just just bullshit like that. Oh, so the spot we're talking
- 36:15about is the spot. No, it's not this spot, but it's
- 36:19just it's on the way there. Yeah, that's funny.
- 36:22So I've probably been on that road before.
- 36:23Probably, yeah. It cracks me up dude just
- 36:26because every time it's like Derek find some way to to do it
- 36:32just a little bit more dangerously in my opinion.
- 36:35I did that on the West Side Highway.
- 36:37No, hell no. You know that bump?
- 36:39The one where it goes up like that, it says bump and puts us
- 36:42puts it not in your stomach. My dad used to hit that on
- 36:44purpose. Yeah, I hit that 100 miles an
- 36:46hour in the STI and I just, the RPM just went I'm like, oh shit.
- 36:52That good wheelspin. That's sick.
- 36:54It was scary. What'd you have after that E36?
- 36:57Jerk car. Oh mine And then then you had
- 37:00another S13? Or did you have an S13 before
- 37:03the E36? I'm not gonna lie, man, after
- 37:07the after the 240, it was a pretty, yeah, it was a pretty
- 37:10slippery slope. What happened to that one coupe
- 37:13you had that had like 1,000,000 miles?
- 37:15Though I had that before. Yes.
- 37:17I remember I sold that to buy the E36.
- 37:22Ah right, you had an each, you had an S13.
- 37:24I had an S13 coupe, I had an LS400.
- 37:27I traded the LS400 to my boy to Ray.
- 37:32The blue LS you have. The blue LS I got that LS400 for
- 37:35400 bucks from a a shop that was about a junk.
- 37:39It was about the junk. They were about a junket because
- 37:42they changed the head gaskets on it and the guy never came and
- 37:45paid the bill. And I was a tow truck driver at
- 37:47the time and I came and I saw the car.
- 37:49It was mint. I was like, dude, what are you
- 37:51guys doing with this car? They're like what about a
- 37:52fucking junket if this guy don't pay his bill?
- 37:55How long was it there, do you know?
- 37:57Months, like 5-6 months or something like that.
- 38:00I was like it was a. Really clean.
- 38:01I was like, yo, can I, can I have the car out there like take
- 38:04it. That was like, I was like, how
- 38:05much do you want for it there? Like give us the money, the junk
- 38:07dollar give us for it. I was like, how much are they
- 38:09gonna give you? I was like, I want probably
- 38:10$400.00. I was like, take it, put the car
- 38:13on the I called my boss. I was like, I just bought a car.
- 38:15I got to bring it to the yard. He was like, all right.
- 38:19I loaded it up right there and took it to the yard.
- 38:22I brought it back. It was on these Mint Chrome OEM.
- 38:25Wheels. Yeah, yeah, they were on.
- 38:26And I remember I just bought like some D twos and just
- 38:29slammed it like that week. You probably sold it too for.
- 38:32No, I took it to Pocono Racing. Yeah, we we had an event with
- 38:36it. Drifting.
- 38:36It was a it was it was an auto still yeah, I had my S13 we.
- 38:41Welded the different. Really.
- 38:43Yeah, not at the time, dude. It was still open when we went,
- 38:46was it? I got a video of it on YouTube.
- 38:48Yeah. Probably.
- 38:49Yeah, it was, it was, it was crazy.
- 38:52It was. It was I.
- 38:52Could see you drifting. It probably was automatic time.
- 38:55Derek fucking in there. He's probably good at it too.
- 38:57Yeah, it was sliding. How many people you know do
- 39:00that? Jesse Martin, That's the only
- 39:01other that was. Early early RSD we slept there
- 39:05and everything was. Like BBQ, I slept in the car
- 39:07with the AC on and drifted with the AC on.
- 39:10It was great. Did you tow it there?
- 39:11You towed it there with something with AF150 or?
- 39:13Something. I drove it there.
- 39:14I drove it there twice. Surprisingly, actually.
- 39:17I have a video of you towing it with an F150.
- 39:20I did. I did.
- 39:20I drove it there once and towed it there once.
- 39:22That thing was should not have been towing in LS, that's for
- 39:27goddamn sure. No, that iPhone 50 was pretty
- 39:30flap. That thing left me stranded in
- 39:31Ohio once. That's horrible.
- 39:33Yeah, it was terrible. I wouldn't.
- 39:34Have that problem with a Toyota. And now Darks winning
- 39:38competitions over there, what was the second place?
- 39:40No, you got, I got second. Place, Yeah.
- 39:43Yeah, you know what? I guess what?
- 39:44I guess what I said to Derek too.
- 39:45I was like, I'm I'm glad you got that because like if I had to
- 39:49lose, then it and it's like, all right, I ate my words.
- 39:52All right, here's the only. Thing that I was really upset
- 39:54about let's. Talk about some driving.
- 39:56When they when they came out and told you that you won and then
- 40:01they were like, all right, everyone get back on.
- 40:03There but that, but that means top four.
- 40:05So then it's like. Yeah, but it wasn't supposed to
- 40:08be that way. I was supposed to.
- 40:11I'm the one that I was. Watching them do it.
- 40:13Don't tell me this. Shit, I'm sorry.
- 40:15I was watching them do it and I'm like, it's going to get
- 40:18worse, Carl, because I'm kind of the one that did this and
- 40:21they're like, yeah, OK, that's it, let's go tell him.
- 40:22I was like, wait, that's it. They're like, yeah.
- 40:24I was like, oh, so we just picked the top eight teams and
- 40:27then that's the winner. They're like, yeah.
- 40:29And I was like, oh, OK. I thought they'd be like.
- 40:30And they're like, yeah, you know what?
- 40:31You're right. And I was like, well, I'm not
- 40:33saying I was just asking. I was ready to lay it out on the
- 40:36line. Ethan was too.
- 40:37And we we didn't make it. That's OK.
- 40:40We got to go harder next time. You guys did good.
- 40:43You guys did. Good.
- 40:44Derek also did good. You got to give credit where
- 40:47credit is due. Kyle was driving the hell out of
- 40:50that red. Sea Kyle Kyle and Ethan fucking
- 40:55killed that event, but you guys LED lead lines consistent over
- 41:02and over and over in like exact same spot so it's like.
- 41:05The the thing that I have a problem with, I don't know if
- 41:07you have a problem with this, but if I wanted to be
- 41:10consistent, then I then I can't. Like I'm too afraid to do like,
- 41:13silly shit. You shouldn't be anyway because
- 41:15you're in lead, you know, you should just be doing the best
- 41:18thing I. Had an idea, but the guy.
- 41:19Following is the one that's going to in a situation like
- 41:22that, the guy following in tandem is going to be the one
- 41:25that gets you guys to the next level because he's going to make
- 41:28it look crazy. Me.
- 41:29And you know what it is? Yeah, I got.
- 41:31It me and Ethan had afterwards both talked and we were like,
- 41:36you know what we should have tried to do?
- 41:38Oh, I know what you're going to say to try and woo the judges.
- 41:40The thing is you was a burst pass.
- 41:43Yeah, but The thing is, you can. By the way, everyone listening
- 41:46we're talking about. What was it the we're talking
- 41:48about the twin drift competition where Derek beat.
- 41:50Me Raceway hosted by Ready, Said Drift.
- 41:53I was. I was talking shit to Derek for
- 41:55seven days straight. That's what actually he, he,
- 41:59that's what he wasn't even. Supposed to He wasn't even
- 42:02supposed to drive. Anymore.
- 42:03He could have gotten a trophy if he didn't talk so much shit.
- 42:07I wouldn't have. I would have stayed my ass at
- 42:08home. You were.
- 42:09He was about to. And I said, oh, Derek ain't
- 42:12gonna show. Up What the fuck bitch I.
- 42:16Got a bandwagon of people? Hit me up, dude.
- 42:18You're really not gonna drive 'cause you're still in a car?
- 42:21I'm like, wow, OK, this is crazy.
- 42:23After everything happened and the smoke cleared, I walked over
- 42:26to them and I was like, like, yo, good job.
- 42:29Yeah, yeah. And I'm like.
- 42:31And Derek was like, chill. He wasn't really talking to
- 42:33anyone. I was like, yeah, good job.
- 42:35He's like, yeah. I was like, Carl fucking came in
- 42:39fourth. He's like, yeah, yeah.
- 42:43I didn't care. He's like, he was talking a lot
- 42:45of shit too, but I'm not going to say anything.
- 42:46Yeah. That's exactly what Derek said.
- 42:48He's like, we're not. It ain't even like that.
- 42:50It's. Not even like that.
- 42:51You came over like the end of the day.
- 42:53You said one thing. I don't know what it was, but.
- 42:55It was but. Losers go home.
- 42:59The best part? What?
- 43:00What makes it, I feel like, what makes it for me is that I lost a
- 43:05well, in my opinion, when we were all like competing, we're
- 43:08all, we're all. Friends, it's almost better that
- 43:09it was Derek. But like, at the end of the day,
- 43:12I you, you got to be a man or or a woman, whatever, but you, you
- 43:17got to eat. Or non binary.
- 43:18You got or whatever the fuck you are, but you, you got to eat and
- 43:24own up your words. You got to eat your shit.
- 43:26That's it. And I had to sit there and eat.
- 43:28It what even happened with you guys like.
- 43:30Ethan's clutch like overheated and it was like when.
- 43:33He spun out. And then the car like,
- 43:35straightened because he was no longer, he wasn't downshifting
- 43:38in a second. All I remember seeing was you
- 43:40got when he started fucking up, I was like, you can only do this
- 43:43for so long, bro. Like he's laying down the most
- 43:46perfect lines. Yeah, every time.
- 43:49Yeah, I'm like, it's been 40 laps.
- 43:52Like eventually he you can't do you.
- 43:53Can't keep it was freaking me out because I was you.
- 43:56Know you had no handbrake. I I broke my handbrake in
- 43:59practice I had 0 E brake whatsoever.
- 44:01Yeah. So whatever, whatever line I
- 44:03sent, I just had to deal with. It that's pretty impressive too,
- 44:06because the E brake is. Makes everything consistent for
- 44:08a long time. When you were learning how to
- 44:10drift, did you have a handbrake? Because I did not.
- 44:12No. For a long time.
- 44:14It seems like the more broke you were, the less handbrake you
- 44:17had. Literally that's a thing.
- 44:18You never had an E brake? Because it was just.
- 44:21You have to fix it. I always accounted for E break
- 44:24by just flicking harder, going deeper with angle and just
- 44:27giving more foot break. Mine for me was that the
- 44:29handbrake was always like a thing that you can use in drift,
- 44:33like it'll work like if you're already sideways and yeah.
- 44:36Anytime I anytime someone comes in here, they say something on
- 44:39the track and they're like, yeah, yeah, it's good.
- 44:40But my E rate doesn't work. I'm just like, that's fine.
- 44:42Don't use it because I'm like, eventually you're gonna, you're
- 44:46gonna get one and then you're going to be even better.
- 44:48But you need to. You need it though.
- 44:51I'm not even. Going to, I think when you're
- 44:52learning, I don't think you even need it it.
- 44:54Saved me more than once when I was when you finally know what
- 44:58it is but. You learned.
- 44:59You learned without one pretty much, right?
- 45:01Yeah, but I made mistakes. Like it could have pretty
- 45:04avoidable ones. Like if you're if you're excuse
- 45:08me in drift, let's say you clutch kick into something and
- 45:11you're really not where you want to be in my brain.
- 45:14I'm like, OK, let me. Hit the cheat button.
- 45:16Hit the cheat button. Exactly, it's a cheat.
- 45:18Code. It's a cheat code.
- 45:19Let me let me buy me some time. Yeah, but rearrange and back
- 45:23because I learned that's part of drifting though.
- 45:25No, I learned with an E brake and if I didn't I'd be a better
- 45:29driver 100% so. It's a part of drifting.
- 45:31Now it's a pretty crazy thing because I'm actually glad I
- 45:34didn't have an E brake because I never drove me.
- 45:38I don't know, a lot of people don't know this, but me and Kyle
- 45:40never drove together before that day.
- 45:42I know. That crazy?
- 45:45That was me and Kyle's first time driving together.
- 45:47Yeah. So fucking insane.
- 45:51I kind of feel better that I didn't have an E brake because
- 45:54then he would be trying to figure out a whole different
- 45:56ballpark of like driving, you know what I'm.
- 45:58Saying I want to see. Unpredictable E brake pools
- 46:01like, you know, just for me to try to make shit look better.
- 46:03I want to see him and Ethan together next twin drift.
- 46:07They need to drive together. Busey.
- 46:09But but. Yeah, or Kyle and Kyle.
- 46:11Bro they would be dirty together like their follow lines are
- 46:16fucking crazy like they transition so good.
- 46:19I'm convinced that if I switched with Ethan, at the end of the
- 46:22day, I would have been fine. We would have.
- 46:24We would have. I don't.
- 46:25Think I saw you guys drove the same way the whole day, right?
- 46:28See, and I hate to say. It I wanted to, if we switched,
- 46:31we might have done it, but then we would have had to relearn it
- 46:34right then and there, yeah. I'm gonna honestly say my my my
- 46:38chase driving isn't confident enough there yet.
- 46:41It's where I feel like I don't need an E brake to chase Dr. I
- 46:44saw you chase him earlier in the day and I was worried.
- 46:47And my E brake failed me. Like 6.
- 46:49Yeah, because I was relying on it.
- 46:50You know, I was like, I don't know what's going on, but this
- 46:52is going to be bad. And then?
- 46:53Switched. Yeah, yeah.
- 46:54Yeah, and all of a sudden it was like, now they're going to be
- 46:57one of the top teams. Like all of a sudden.
- 46:59And we were like what the fuck? One of the.
- 47:01Funny, it's crazy because when I started leading, I, I, you know,
- 47:03I stopped. I stopped trying to use the E
- 47:05brake completely. Yeah.
- 47:06One of the funniest little moments when that E brake broke
- 47:09was that Derek was in the pits. Like testing it.
- 47:12He's just driving, just going, and then it breaks.
- 47:16Like the handle rips off. And then and then a hey, you had
- 47:22Morgas board of. People.
- 47:25Just congregated at our pit and just was everyone was roasting
- 47:30and in the video you hear Derek go.
- 47:33Everybody here could. Eat up like everybody was.
- 47:36There like 20 people yelling at me.
- 47:38Why did you put that on there? The the extension.
- 47:41To make to to pull it more. Even I got I have the thrash
- 47:45seat. That's what I thought and you
- 47:47just couldn't grab it. I.
- 47:48Forgot what the name of that seat that I have I forget.
- 47:50I don't know. Oh yeah, Derek spent like 30
- 47:52minutes or 30. 30 hours beta, it's, you know, it's kind of
- 47:56wide and big as hell and you can't yeah, if you have it in
- 47:59the G35 once you mount it. So you wanted to bring it up
- 48:03here? Yeah, you literally can't reach
- 48:05it, you know, because. I mean, we bought the same thing
- 48:07for Miyagi's Cresada because it's all the way here.
- 48:10It's like it's can't. So The thing is, it's funny
- 48:13because it's reachable here, but because of the beta, yeah, I
- 48:16can't lift my shoulder up to reach out to grab it.
- 48:20Why do you need to be that? That's number one.
- 48:22I feel like you shouldn't even really be reaching out I.
- 48:24Can't put my arm on a. Roll.
- 48:25You know what you need. I can only do.
- 48:27This you need a chase base pull up E break it's that's.
- 48:31That that would be in the same place that would be that I.
- 48:34That that little thing, but. Extension.
- 48:36Yeah, but now you can mount it the way that you want it.
- 48:38You know what? You no, but it would it's
- 48:39literally in the same like Nick has that it's in the same place.
- 48:41It's the the extension. I just.
- 48:43You need the big ass samurai sword Hydro.
- 48:47You know what Hamburg I'm talking about though?
- 48:49The one where it's a pull up a. Car X.
- 48:51That's the one. If I was going to run a hydro
- 48:53but a hydro it would look like. Yeah, yeah, yeah, like a.
- 48:55'Cause then I'm. Still, I'd have to use that
- 48:57before. I've only used the tall hydros
- 49:00before. Yeah, but when I when I have the
- 49:01tall one, it makes me like gravitate to it right away
- 49:04'cause I drove one at what? What?
- 49:06What in the gymkhana at? Grange.
- 49:08I drove one with it and it was the easiest thing ever.
- 49:11It was like, Oh yeah, right here.
- 49:13I mean, Oh. Yeah, the the ones in the
- 49:15rentals, I Grange those heads we should talk about, we should
- 49:18talk about. That we should talk about that.
- 49:20How you you guys want to talk about Grange?
- 49:21What, you rented a Hellcat over there man 'cause you really had
- 49:25to rent. I was out there tearing up the
- 49:27streets. You.
- 49:28Had multiple options. He rents a black charger.
- 49:32That's I mean. I honestly.
- 49:34He drove that shit all the all. The well, well, well.
- 49:37Shit right there bro. See, if you want to put it like
- 49:40that, man, that's on you, man. Or was it?
- 49:42Was it the pose where you were like the?
- 49:45And see, I had that shit on, man.
- 49:47I had to, you know. Derek, I'm gonna, I'm gonna warn
- 49:50you right now. Don't ever ask me to take a
- 49:51photo of you because I'm gonna throw your phone.
- 49:53Yeah. I would I honestly.
- 49:54Think of me. Me growing up around Frankie,
- 49:57I've known to to learn. Yeah.
- 49:59Well, you you probably wouldn't do my best.
- 50:01I'm telling you, Derek said that he's like, man, what the fuck?
- 50:04These motherfuckers don't really fuck with me like.
- 50:06Yeah, I'm sure he does. Yeah, that's not true.
- 50:08I told. Him.
- 50:09It's not true. I just, you know, I know it's
- 50:11not true. We fucked with that.
- 50:13I told him. We've had hearts to hearts in
- 50:15this office before. Yeah, at least one.
- 50:17We did, We did. It changed everything for.
- 50:20Me, I love when there did change a lot.
- 50:21Derry pull up like literally again at once every other week
- 50:24at least. And sometimes we're not doing
- 50:25nothing. Just do not.
- 50:26Gonna lie, I'm I'm I'm might say I'm an emotional dude.
- 50:29I'm not gonna send me my feelings, but I be.
- 50:31Thinking, I think you. I think you are, but you're not.
- 50:33You're not. I'm not.
- 50:34I'm not calling you. I'm not calling my God.
- 50:36I'm not gonna lie, I might be a kind of an emotional dude.
- 50:38I I don't be like I'm not like AI don't can I can I curse
- 50:41something yes, I like a bitch or nothing like that.
- 50:42You know like I I don't be crying on no and shit.
- 50:45You know, I just shit that that I'd be really like you know, be
- 50:47feeling. I, I really kind of feel it or
- 50:49like, that's not like. He with that, He with that.
- 50:53It's not like, you know, I just be like it's and it's like it's
- 50:55all the time thing, you know, like, oh, what's up with this
- 50:58guy now type of deal, you know, like, yeah.
- 51:01I'm not even going to hold you though, Derek.
- 51:02Sometimes I I'd be seeing what kind of shit you'd be up to and
- 51:06I'm like, how the hell did you end up in Miami?
- 51:11I'm not going to lie, I do a lot of freestyling.
- 51:14I do a lot of freestyle. Just raw dog.
- 51:16Life like that I ended up in Miami.

- 53:42Yeah, yeah. You know it wasn't warming.
- 53:44That's Del Taco Bean burrito not warming me.
- 53:47Up once we crossed over that mountain range.

- 53:50That was the first time we opened.
- 53:51Fuck yeah that shit was. That mountain range that you
- 53:54climb on the other side is the desert.
- 53:56I'm not going to lie to California people correct me if
- 53:58I'm wrong. Vesperia that place sketch the
- 54:00fuck? Out of me.
- 54:01Oh, it was sketchy. Like that place was so.
- 54:03What about it was sketchy? It was like a it was like a
- 54:05desert town. I remember because I stayed in
- 54:07San Diego and I booked the hotel like I was like, oh, there's a
- 54:11hotel like right next to the track.
- 54:12I'm going to book this. Like, you know, it's like an
- 54:13exit down and I booked it and we literally like I was there for
- 54:19probably 7 minutes when we left. I, I, I can't, I, I was like I
- 54:24didn't even, I was like, yo, just keep the money for the
- 54:26room. I was like, I'm just going to
- 54:27leave. Wait.
- 54:27What? Was that about it?
- 54:29Was I? Don't remember this, it 'cause
- 54:31this is meanwhile. Ducks from the Bronx.
- 54:32This is do you, you feel me this.
- 54:34Is. Actually speak volumes to you,
- 54:36dude. I've seen some shit.
- 54:38I've stayed in some crazy places.
- 54:40Like, no, I'm not like crazy low classroom, like I'm not a dirty
- 54:43dude or nothing, but like dude, the, the, the all right, first
- 54:47of all, we got to the hotel, all right.
- 54:50When I I get sketched out, when I get to hotels and there's
- 54:54people living there full time, you know what I'm saying?
- 54:56Yeah. Oh, OK.
- 54:57It's like, that's one thing, you know, I'm saying that's a that's
- 54:59a red flag to me because I'm like, OK, I see what kind of
- 55:01hotel, but. Maybe the, the the facilities
- 55:03are reliable. I've been up to like that.
- 55:05Yeah, we, we definitely. But the hotel I'm thinking about
- 55:08was bad as fuck. Oh, like they're they're selling
- 55:11drugs. Bro, call me Bougie if you want,
- 55:13call me Judge mental look, I've when I see when I get to places
- 55:16and I see people living at the hotel I'm coming to stay at for
- 55:19like my little vacation, little stay away, whatever.
- 55:21I get sketched out because I'm like, what's going on in this
- 55:25area that people are like in and out and going to live in hotels
- 55:28and shit? Here was my red flag.
- 55:30We go, we go to our Airbnb, we pull up.
- 55:32It's a nice open area, desert home blocks, whatever fucking
- 55:38bars on the window. Every window.
- 55:40I'm like. Every window, every window's got
- 55:41burglar bars. Yeah, I'm like, that's a little.
- 55:44Weird. No, that's not, that's not for
- 55:48coincidental. Yeah, that coincidence, bro.
- 55:50That means this is a high burglary area.
- 55:52And they said that, too, when we were in that area, someone said
- 55:55that someone was like, yeah, this is it's not a great area,
- 55:58but it's hard to tell because like when you're here, a bad
- 56:01area is like a city, more cityish.
- 56:04So there's a lot of people. Walking around.
- 56:06Maybe that's where we're from. Yeah, where we're from.
- 56:08But when you go to there, it's like the opposite.
- 56:11Yeah. Oh, this is a bad area.
- 56:12Well, how do you know 'cause I don't even see anyone.
- 56:15How do I know it's bad, everybody?
- 56:16Comes to hide. Yeah, everything closes at 8:00
- 56:18PM That's a that's a bad area. So, you know, true, that wasn't
- 56:21like my oh, I'm just gonna leave 'cause there's people staying
- 56:23here that, you know, living here full time.
- 56:25I'm like, you know, I'm like, OK, I see that.
- 56:27Let's go check out the room. I went and checked out the room.
- 56:31There's fucking like permanent stains in the sheets and shit.
- 56:33Yeah, OK. Blood.
- 56:35Yeah, I don't know. I hope.
- 56:36Semen. Honest, definitely.
- 56:39Did you taste it? Most definitely.
- 56:40You taste. How would now you, you, you, you
- 56:43saying that like you tasted it? Yeah, see that's.
- 56:46I knew it. I knew you were.
- 56:47Weird. You know what's crazy?
- 56:49Because my lady actually sat on the bed and I was like, babe,
- 56:52get up. And she was like, you're right.
- 56:53I don't even feel right sitting on this thing.
- 56:55I was, she was going to just leave.
- 56:56I was like, get the fuck out of here.
- 56:58And we went downstairs and was like, hey, like, we got, we got
- 57:00an emergency person gonna head out and they were like, OK,
- 57:03like, you don't think I was like, no, we'll take care of it
- 57:05later. Like, well, we'll cancel the
- 57:06room for you. They actually did send us some
- 57:08money like a couple days later. You get there at night or you
- 57:10get there during the day. Broad daylight.
- 57:11That's why I remember I got to one.
- 57:14I got to a hotel. Baby light is.
- 57:15Crazy. Bro, we went to we were getting
- 57:18ready to go meet you. We were like about, we met up
- 57:20with you guys like probably 20 minutes after this.
- 57:22We went and we got the La Quinta after that.
- 57:25Dude I stayed at a hotel in Arizona once we wrote we were.
- 57:28I was riding my bike for like 3 hours before that.
- 57:31It's the middle of the night. We're falling asleep on the
- 57:34motorcycles. Like we're literally it's bad.
- 57:36We have to pull over. He someone picks a spot.
- 57:39We don't look at anyone. We don't talk to anyone.
- 57:41We go in. It's not that bad.
- 57:44The room, yeah, you know, whatever.
- 57:46No, no one, no one cares right now.
- 57:48Like whatever. We wake up, I walk outside.
- 57:51I'm like, oh, people live here. Yeah.
- 57:53Like I feel like I'm at an apartment.
- 57:54Bro the desert is crazy dude. Yeah.
- 57:57And then, like, and then our boy was there who lived there, and
- 57:59he's like, where are you guys at?
- 58:01And we told him again, he's like, oh, he's like, yeah, you
- 58:04probably shouldn't be there. Like, what do you mean?

- 59:19Way cheaper than a car my. Sportster Rebuilders $2000.
- 59:23OK. Rebuilds a sports server for
- 59:25$2000. I'll go buy another sport server
- 59:27for $2000. They'll talk to this guy.
- 59:29This guy's cheap. That's insane all.
- 59:31Right, you want to get a Harley? Man bro two, he said $2000 set
- 59:36of wheels for a car $2000. Yep.
- 59:38That's one thing. You just rebuilt the engine.
- 59:40Yeah, it's provable. Yeah.
- 59:41I mean like. Harley Motor.

- 59:46grand. I mean you probably.
- 59:48Can I can Clapper? That you're going to have to put
- 59:51another 2 grand into. I'll just keep buying sport.
- 59:53Malcolm was sending Carl ads today for Sportsters and Carl's
- 59:57like $2000. Hell no for the.
- 1:00:01Fucking garbage that he just sent me and then this guy has
- 1:00:04the audacity to tell me it's because your budget is just for
- 1:00:07pieces of shit. No, no, no, brother, Brother, I
- 1:00:10didn't say that. I will burn my blood and time
- 1:00:14it's true over my money because I would rather spend something
- 1:00:19that I don't care about that much.
- 1:00:22Then I can just go take my money and actually put it somewhere
- 1:00:25that would benefit my life. But instead this guy keeps
- 1:00:30telling me you're being cheap. I don't want to spend my hard
- 1:00:35earned money on my bullshit adventures.
- 1:00:39That is not going to benefit me, so why the fuck am I going to
- 1:00:42put but my money that I worked for into this hobby that I don't
- 1:00:46even know if it's going to stick?
- 1:00:48Is it even worth it for me to get into this hobby?
- 1:00:50Who the fuck even knows? It's not that serious, Carl.
- 1:00:53Alright, Carl. That's it.
- 1:00:54Look, man. Like I'm, I get it, I get it in
- 1:00:58the chat. Bro, I thought I was going to do
- 1:00:59that on here. No, no, I saw.
- 1:01:01Another hour. Did I not?
- 1:01:03Did I not say? I said in the chat, oh, we're
- 1:01:06talking about this tonight. I thought I was going to have a
- 1:01:09super serious moment. And I said you probably God
- 1:01:11forbid I want to save money on my shit.
- 1:01:14Now, we talking about this tonight.
- 1:01:16I might, but I look, I might. I'm be frank with you bro,
- 1:01:23you're not. You're not going to have at
- 1:01:25least, and to be as real as real as shit as possible with you,
- 1:01:31you're not going to have at least three months to four
- 1:01:35months of fun on a Harley without spending at least 4
- 1:01:41grand, what, at least one time? What at least?
- 1:01:44One time. What is fun for you?
- 1:01:47I like to be on the two wheel. Just ride to ride the bike and
- 1:01:50not have any trouble and not have to put another grand into
- 1:01:53the bike. You're gonna have to spend 4
- 1:01:55grand on a Harley to start off. Just to why?
- 1:01:57And maybe 'cause they're expensive, dude.
- 1:01:59It's a sporty with nothing done to it.
- 1:02:02Doesn't matter. For $1700 it doesn't matter.
- 1:02:05I tried that. I tried that.
- 1:02:06I spent 2 grand on a Harley. I said fuck that, I'm not.
- 1:02:09I looked out on the market place, everybody 35 four
- 1:02:11thousand 5000. I'm not spending that.
- 1:02:13Fuck that. I bought a Harley, boom, another
- 1:02:15$2000 instantly, right. This is for a Sportster on a
- 1:02:19fucking Sportster. Derek had like a purple tank.
- 1:02:22Tank. Oh, I remember that.
- 1:02:23Yeah, the 1200. That seemed pretty good.
- 1:02:26It was, it was really nice. That's why I spent the money on
- 1:02:28it. The whole motor was everything,
- 1:02:30the whole. So how?
- 1:02:30Much was that. Ruined out two grand and then
- 1:02:33I'd spend 2 grand on a full rebuild.
- 1:02:35Oh, 'cause it was bad. It was, yeah.
- 1:02:37It needed to full rebuild. That's it, that mindset that I
- 1:02:41have that is not just a Harley thing though, that is a all
- 1:02:46around no. But don't get me, you can do
- 1:02:48that with other bikes. No, not bikes.
- 1:02:50I'm talking about my life. Oh, wait, no, obviously.
- 1:02:54I don't. I don't hear about this, just
- 1:02:56about. Harley.
- 1:02:58From these friends every single time.
- 1:03:02Wait, wait. Wait, wait, wait.

- 1:03:32Find them for cheaper. No, there was just like.
- 1:03:34I was just looking for the best deal you can get there's.
- 1:03:35Just like there is a stipulation that I cheap out on everything,
- 1:03:41but guess what? I.
- 1:03:42Just spent I did on a Dino and it blew up the next day.
- 1:03:45I do and and guess what? Look you, you went through.
- 1:03:47All of that, I didn't even get on the highway with it yet.
- 1:03:49Fuck that. I'm never getting on that ever
- 1:03:52again. I'm never buying anything like
- 1:03:54that again. I'm never looking at.
- 1:03:55It you got it's crazy because I said dude, you know what kind?
- 1:03:58I almost fell into a depression. I almost did it almost did it
- 1:04:02almost fell into a depression spending 7 grand on a bike and
- 1:04:04it blew up the next day. Almost how?
- 1:04:06Did it blow up? What did?
- 1:04:07What happened I? Don't know dude.
- 1:04:08I but literally I bought it a test, wrote it.
- 1:04:11It was fucking fantastic. I gave him the money.
- 1:04:14The next day I rode down the street, literally there's a bar
- 1:04:18four blocks from my house. I rode there, rode back, the
- 1:04:21bike was fine. The next day I was actually
- 1:04:24going to go ride. So I went to the gas station,
- 1:04:27filled it up, started riding towards the highway, and as I
- 1:04:30was going towards the highway, it kind of just was like started
- 1:04:36breaking up like crazy, you know?
- 1:04:37Do you know what's wrong with it yet?
- 1:04:39No. Maybe it's something stupid.
- 1:04:42No, no it's not. No big compression test today.
- 1:04:45It looks lost compression both cylinders.
- 1:04:47What the fuck? Yeah, yeah, dude, I got no fuck.
- 1:04:50What if it's something dumb? Yeah, I, I don't.

- 1:04:55Too, I don't know. Mechanic looked at it and he was
- 1:04:57like. Oh yeah.
- 1:05:00He was like, yeah, well. Here's the good news.
- 1:05:03You could take that shit out right in your living room and
- 1:05:06just take the engine out. We put it aside and we're going
- 1:05:09to deal with that later and we're just going to forget about
- 1:05:11that for right now. Worry about the car.
- 1:05:13Yeah, yeah, worry about the car. I just built the Silverado too.

- 1:05:27it. I bought AI bought a 2006 cat
- 1:05:30eye a few weeks ago. I I keep forgetting about the
- 1:05:35fact that you have a truck now. Yeah.

- 1:05:39did not have. I've been driving my car to
- 1:05:42every. Event.
- 1:05:42Every event. Across America, I'm just
- 1:05:45kidding, just the just the East Coast, but like I've been
- 1:05:47driving to every event, just, you know, just loading it with
- 1:05:49tires and driving. It's been good to.

- 1:05:59on it with bags in the rear. Well, not like it's not fully
- 1:06:02bagged, but it's just got helper bags for.
- 1:06:05That's pretty cool. That's all you need.
- 1:06:07That's it. So.
- 1:06:09We're gonna talk about. I'm trying not to do stupid shit
- 1:06:11to it too because like. Well, you already did.
- 1:06:15I mean, I'm trying to do more stupid shit to it, you know,
- 1:06:18there's like there's, there's terrible parts flowing.
- 1:06:20Well, OK, Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, no, no, no.
- 1:06:22That was the first thing that you sent me and what did I I?
- 1:06:25I also got into a tizzy about that 'cause I was like, Derek,
- 1:06:29don't do this please. No, I'm probably not gonna.
- 1:06:33No, that would be stupid. Like I was like, dude, just
- 1:06:35comfort. Then that motor's gonna it's.
- 1:06:38Crazy though because gonna hate me but probably gonna have to
- 1:06:42get another truck. Wait, what?
- 1:06:43What? Exactly what exactly?
- 1:06:46Wait, why do you need another truck?
- 1:06:47I want a single cab short bed, so I was going to turbo this
- 1:06:51thing, but it's just honestly the only reason I'm not turboing
- 1:06:53it. It's like, you know, it's not
- 1:06:55responsibility. It's not like, oh, I'm being
- 1:06:56responsible, you know, No, it's just, it's too fucking big.
- 1:06:59I want to have more fun with it. So I'm like, Jesus, I'm not
- 1:07:02going to waste. I'm.
- 1:07:03Not a truck guy like that I don't really know.
- 1:07:05Yo, I'm really not either until like recently it's kind.
- 1:07:08Of no you. Drive fucking 18 Wheelers.
- 1:07:09Really. No, no, no.
- 1:07:10You do know a lot about trucks? You know what it is I I that I
- 1:07:16do, you do I naturally do. I didn't realize how much I do
- 1:07:18until I recently got into it. I'm like, oh shit, I do know
- 1:07:20this. I do know that.
- 1:07:21And then like I got in my brother's truck, dude, nothing
- 1:07:23scared the that shit scared the shit out of me.
- 1:07:28That was the fastest thing I've ever been in in my life.
- 1:07:30Was what, my brother's fucking Silverado 1500?
- 1:07:34Turbo. Yeah, so 19 PSI 6.2.
- 1:07:39And it's fast as. Fuck it's like a fucking 1000
- 1:07:41horsepower I literally like it when he force it like I lose my
- 1:07:45breath I can't breathe the. Duramax.
- 1:07:48No, it's the fucking LS. With 1000 horsepower, yeah, why
- 1:07:52does. He do.
- 1:07:53He put the $100 bill on a dashboard and then says if you
- 1:07:55could get that, you could keep it on the.
- 1:07:58Record. I don't know if it actually
- 1:08:00makes 1000 horsepower. But.
- 1:08:03I don't know if it actually makes 1000 horsepower on the
- 1:08:05record. Like, you know, it's just, it's
- 1:08:07on 19 PSI and I, I know what the 700 horsepower packages and he
- 1:08:14know he does too, but that's, that's not it.
- 1:08:16It's, it's something else. We'll figure it out later.
- 1:08:19And they weigh a lot too, so. No, that thing's pretty good.
- 1:08:21Single cab, short, but they're small.
- 1:08:24Bro you need a long bed. Bro that truck is small.
- 1:08:27Derek does not need it for the long bed shit.
- 1:08:29Always a long so I think for my truck I'm just gonna like put
- 1:08:32like a Cam, like headers in it and just like cruise, you know,
- 1:08:34to like the. I'm excited because now I feel
- 1:08:36like it's gonna elevate your driving a little.
- 1:08:38Like even more exactly. Because now you don't have to
- 1:08:41worry about. Scaring.
- 1:08:42I feel like this guy doesn't give a fuck.
- 1:08:44Already. Yeah, you know Derek does not.
- 1:08:46Drive like he has to drive home. Yeah, he never does.
- 1:08:48Yeah, I, I, I that's my problem. I don't, but that's good though.
- 1:08:52I definitely don't drive like I got to drive it home because
- 1:08:54like in my head I'm like. God.
- 1:08:56I'm like unless I total it, I'm like I could fix it and drive it
- 1:08:59home. I know.
- 1:09:00Not all the time, Derek, Not all the time.
- 1:09:02But look, have I ever been stuck anywhere?
- 1:09:05No, yeah. No, no, no A.
- 1:09:08Lot of wood knock. That's where, that's where
- 1:09:10pause, but that's where I'm telling you because of the way
- 1:09:16that we went through everything we went through that you are
- 1:09:20going to find some fucking way to get home no matter what.
- 1:09:26That's that's that's kind of why I keep driving like that.
- 1:09:30When I no I. Got to drive home.
- 1:09:32But also because you're pretty mechanically inclined.
- 1:09:34We we do. Derek shows up to my house, does
- 1:09:38some fucking suspension arms. Yo, I'm not gonna lie.
- 1:09:42It's crazy cuz and I'm just sitting there.
- 1:09:44I gotta get here, I do have to get here.
- 1:09:46I gotta make an appointment with you guys because like I threw so
- 1:09:49many parts on my car in the left.
- 1:09:50Make the. Appointment right now.
- 1:09:52What's up? Yeah, what's up, Mel?
- 1:09:53Schedule. Bring up the schedule.
- 1:09:55Pull that other tab up over. Oh God.
- 1:09:56Oh God, oh God. But yeah, no, I put those arms
- 1:09:59in like I'll put some GK tech, shut out GK tech.
- 1:10:03I put those arms in those lower control arms with their angle
- 1:10:05kit and and I kind of just winged it.
- 1:10:08Yeah, I remember did the alignment by eye.
- 1:10:10And then you drove an event. And then you drove an event with
- 1:10:12someone you. Never drove with no, no, no, no,
- 1:10:15no. I went to a car show.
- 1:10:16I put those arms in and I actually went to a car show just
- 1:10:19to like hang out and visit some people that were like in town to
- 1:10:22go to that car show. And this it was a Kesi sushi.
- 1:10:27Yeah excuse me, Kesi sushi event at Wall Speedway.
- 1:10:30And I ended up going there to hang out and the guy was like,
- 1:10:33yeah, you should drive the comp and end up driving the comp
- 1:10:37there. And you did pretty freaking
- 1:10:39good. I, I did decent.
- 1:10:41It was pretty funny because like I, I, I was like, yeah, I don't
- 1:10:44have an alignment, I don't have tires.
- 1:10:46Like, I just kind of just showed up, you know, just came to hang
- 1:10:48out. How did you do on that one?
- 1:10:52I got into top 16 OK out of. You were telling me I thought
- 1:10:58you came in second in some other thing or something.
- 1:11:00That was two. No, that was 200.
- 1:11:01OK, just that I I got into the top 16.
- 1:11:03All right, all right. It's enough.
- 1:11:04It's enough. I thought, I thought he got in
- 1:11:07the second. But like I, I wasn't really
- 1:11:09expecting to do much 'cause it was like a completely unlimited
- 1:11:11class. Like, you know, it was, there
- 1:11:12was like a bunch of fucking V eights.
- 1:11:14Everybody was on 295. And then you told me they were
- 1:11:16letting other people do things. And then?
- 1:11:17Yeah, there's a bunch of not crazy shit going on there.
- 1:11:20Yeah, I wasn't really. Yeah.
- 1:11:23Anyways. You, you.
- 1:11:24The level of driving has increased though Derek, and it's
- 1:11:27pretty noticeable. I'm telling you, in the early
- 1:11:30stages, Derek would just throw the fucking car.
- 1:11:33If you feel like he still just throws the fucking.
- 1:11:35Car No, no, no. It's a lot more controlled now.
- 1:11:37You're you're way more controlled now.
- 1:11:39Both. Both because I definitely just
- 1:11:41throw the car, but I throw it into the same spot consistently.
- 1:11:44Yeah, that is, that is a key component.
- 1:11:47Like, OK, remember the five series?
- 1:11:50Yes. Yeah.
- 1:11:52That sounds way. Too big already?
- 1:11:53Dude it was a stock. That car was boned.
- 1:11:55Manual 5. Welded diff.
- 1:11:58With a welded diff. I went B group at club books
- 1:12:00with that car. Automatic.
- 1:12:02No, it was 5. Speed.
- 1:12:02It was 5 speed but. Imagine you got the B group.
- 1:12:05It would hit the bank. That would be nuts.
- 1:12:07As big as hell like it was. Yeah, that's too.
- 1:12:09Huge. Huge.
- 1:12:10Car that's like a JZX. That's what I point in my head.
- 1:12:13I think it when I. When I squinted, that's what I
- 1:12:15was driving. I don't know, the JZXS are
- 1:12:18fucking big. No, they're honestly, they have
- 1:12:20the same they're about. The same wheelbase as my.
- 1:12:22Part Believe it or not, you want to know something crazy.
- 1:12:25Back in the day we did a wheelbase test and.
- 1:12:29What's a wheel? What you just measure.
- 1:12:31Them like we measured the wheelbase like we're my I was at
- 1:12:33this place function water sports in upstate New York.
- 1:12:36Yeah. And they were doing alignments
- 1:12:38like they do, they used to do like string alignments back in
- 1:12:40the day. And I was like, Oh yeah, no, you
- 1:12:43know, this car drives different because it's big.
- 1:12:45And they were like, it's not that big.
- 1:12:47They were like, AZ wheelbase is bigger than that.
- 1:12:49I was like, no, it's not. And they had a 350Z there and
- 1:12:54they did a wheel. They like measured the wheelbase
- 1:12:56like just strictly lengthwise, you know what I'm saying?
- 1:12:59The the 350Z was longer than the E30.
- 1:13:02Nine, I was about the. Base or the length of.
- 1:13:04The length of the wheelbase, like front wheel to back wheel,
- 1:13:07Yeah, yeah, yeah. Was longer than an E39 five
- 1:13:09series on a 350. ZI could see that I feel like
- 1:13:11overhang on after after the wheels.
- 1:13:14I'm sure, probably. Wait.
- 1:13:15Oh yeah, I'm sure the same thing with Jay-Z, because a 5 Series
- 1:13:17has like a whole like fucking 3 cylinders.
- 1:13:20Yeah, probably. And the JZX and the five series
- 1:13:23have like the trunk is like a long yeah, they're.
- 1:13:25Long as hell trunk. It's like.
- 1:13:26Very long but it makes me think about the weight because our our
- 1:13:30chasers light I never really got into.
- 1:13:32Chasers like I I feel like every Toyota weighs the same.
- 1:13:35Are they like Jay-Z with like a Jay-Z motor or just like I feel
- 1:13:39they're overall a stiff injector?
- 1:13:40I'll assume. Their car is sub 4000.
- 1:13:42I was assuming that car is 3000 to 32 maybe I don't know 30.
- 1:13:48Two. Yeah, it's roughly around. 3200
- 1:13:50lbs. Yeah, I, I.
- 1:13:53That's actually made me bad that 31 is not bad.
- 1:13:56That's lighter than what I think the BMW would be.
- 1:13:59To me, that's how. Because that's how.
- 1:14:01That's how much a all-wheel drive car should.
- 1:14:02I have personally weighed an S13 with me in it.
- 1:14:06How much was it? It was 24 something.
- 1:14:09Jesus. Christ, dude, no way.
- 1:14:11That's what cars should weigh. Yo, what with?
- 1:14:13Me in it because there was a. Granite.
- 1:14:16No cage. No cage, It was a streetcar.
- 1:14:19Sr. How?
- 1:14:20Much does AG35 weigh? He's just using happy number
- 1:14:23333233 huh bro? Damn.
- 1:14:29Oh, that's a 08. That's a 08.
- 1:14:31That's a 08. That's a 08.
- 1:14:33Honestly typing like 05/05. I should have known that.
- 1:14:37No, All right. And geez bro, weigh too much,
- 1:14:41Weigh 30. £500. So stupid.
- 1:14:45My IS weighs 3300 and it probably weighs a little more
- 1:14:48now because. Of the IS weighs IS does not
- 1:14:50work. I'm not going 4.
- 1:14:51It weighs a It weighs 30. Oh man, I think.
- 1:14:55Check it out. Mount A What IS300?
- 1:14:57That's that's depressing. No, you got to put the year.
- 1:15:00That's pretty depressing. 2002. Maybe yes, you're one of them 33
- 1:15:04and then with the with the CD and the now that yeah, yeah,
- 1:15:08which is heavier. I'd say 33. 33, yeah.
- 1:15:12Oh, the Jay-Z. Oh no, that is.
- 1:15:15Oh, but yours? Yours was iron.
- 1:15:17Yeah, it was Iron 4, but now it's so the casting of the one J
- 1:15:22and two J blocks I think are the same.
- 1:15:25And so since the one J has is less displacement, there's like
- 1:15:30more material. Yeah, but I'm thinking about
- 1:15:32that turbo. Yeah.
- 1:15:33So that's that's the big. One, so you could be at 30, a
- 1:15:36little under 34. But then I took out like the C
- 1:15:39and like put it with a thrash racing.
- 1:15:41CI mean Here's the thing, at the end of the day, does that shit
- 1:15:44really even matter for. Drifting it does like 1000.
- 1:15:47That's the reason why my car will never ever snap as far as
- 1:15:53an S jump. See.
- 1:15:54As far as like actual competition performance, Oh
- 1:15:58yeah, that's different. I'm having a lot of trouble
- 1:16:00doing research on actually collecting data on it because
- 1:16:02like you can make pretty much anything do whatever.
- 1:16:06But as far as personal driver feel, the S chassis SR20 feeling
- 1:16:11is kind of unmatched. What do you?
- 1:16:12What do you say? What do you think?
- 1:16:15I've been searching for this dude.
- 1:16:16It's up where when I'm blocking the.
- 1:16:17Where's your mind going when you want to make your G35 do that?
- 1:16:22Because I got a little bit of a theory right now that I could I
- 1:16:25would like to maybe pursue. Right now, I'm gonna get the
- 1:16:31passenger seat out. I got AI, got a driver's seat.
- 1:16:34They are the seat. I weighed the seat, it was 86
- 1:16:38lbs. Dude, they were so.
- 1:16:40So collectively, you know 106 lbs because it's all electric
- 1:16:43and verbose. Dude, no, no, no, no, no, no.
- 1:16:45But the IS seats are also electric.
- 1:16:46But when Derek left one in my driveway and I had to move it, I
- 1:16:52was like, oh, let me fucking 86 lbs.
- 1:16:54And I was like Oh my God it. Was £100 seat.
- 1:16:57It was very heavy and I usually I like.
- 1:17:01Put it on the scale. Fucking walked it over you.
- 1:17:03Have a 4 door. I have a coupe.
- 1:17:05OK, so I'm thinking about and. You got to remember that that
- 1:17:08range you probably have one of the.
- 1:17:10Light ones. So I run full interior.
- 1:17:11There's not really much aside from the seats and the interior
- 1:17:14that I'm going to lose obviously, you know, so there's
- 1:17:16no point in gutting it. You know, I'm not going to take
- 1:17:19out all my fucking plastic panels and lose 20 lbs.
- 1:17:22It's kind of pointless. I have been playing with spring
- 1:17:27rates. I definitely did change how the
- 1:17:30car filled, just like how the car feels.
- 1:17:32Just playing with my preload a little bit, you know, like I
- 1:17:35went a little bit more aggressive on my preload.
- 1:17:37On the front or. Or both.
- 1:17:39And they're both. I went a little bit more
- 1:17:41aggressive with both, but I I also raised the rear a little
- 1:17:45bit, which usually like when I raise the rear, it gets a
- 1:17:48little, it's tight, you know, but the car gets a more grippy.
- 1:17:53But I've managed with this last setup I just did to get the car
- 1:17:57to be grippy and still kind of be snappy and aggressive.
- 1:17:59It's usually kind of hard for me to do both.
- 1:18:02Yeah, usually if you're you're making it, if you're losing
- 1:18:06grip, they probably feel snappier, but then you're going
- 1:18:09to have no grip and you make it more grippy, you're probably
- 1:18:12going to, it's probably going to feel heavier and laggier, I
- 1:18:15feel. Like no.
- 1:18:16I. Because I'm thinking like sway
- 1:18:17bars and. Stuff.
- 1:18:18I think that this is where my theory's at.
- 1:18:21So I like that we're all on different, different pages right
- 1:18:25now because when I think of it being grippy and it's slow and
- 1:18:30laggy like that now. Like just feels heavy.
- 1:18:34Yeah, but now if I wanted to drift, if everything I do to
- 1:18:40that, every movement is going to be focused on making it
- 1:18:44straight, which means it's going to snap to straight faster.
- 1:18:48But that means you got to know that you have to throw it hard
- 1:18:51enough to make it go back the other way and fight it.
- 1:18:54So the harder you're fighting it, the more it'll have to fight
- 1:19:00you back. You want it to fight you back
- 1:19:02like it has to like. You know what I mean?
- 1:19:04I don't know. It's a dumb theory.
- 1:19:06I think that it might be a good theory.
- 1:19:07That's how I think of it. It doesn't help that I barely
- 1:19:09drove a heavy car ever. You have to, like, fight it like
- 1:19:12that. You want to Yeah, sure.
- 1:19:15You want to like. There's one left after this
- 1:19:17that's. What you want to fight, like to
- 1:19:20A to a certain degree you want to like fight it or whatever,
- 1:19:23Carl. You can.
- 1:19:25Take just put it back in here. Yeah, I'll.
- 1:19:27Save. It.
- 1:19:28For next week, I mean, I'm kind of remember driving Miyagi's
- 1:19:31car. That's a heavy car.
- 1:19:32But you got to, you have to fight it.
- 1:19:34Like when you see in in car, it's hard to explain, but like
- 1:19:37if I'm fighting my car, that's the fastest it's going like in a
- 1:19:40corner ever. Like if it's like trying to go
- 1:19:43straight and I'm just like holding it, I'm making it do
- 1:19:46this. It's just going to fly.
- 1:19:48I'm. Just thinking like transitions
- 1:19:50and stuff I. I just got my car to like a
- 1:19:52happy medium to where it crosses transitions like kind of
- 1:19:55perfectly. Like I can stay up like quarter
- 1:19:57throttle and like still lay a smooth transition without it
- 1:20:01worrying about it being like, you know, like I used to grip up
- 1:20:04in the middle a lot. I used to get to center and like
- 1:20:06have to clutch kick past it. I'm just trying to make sure
- 1:20:10that I keep like and I I don't know if you I I could if you
- 1:20:14feel like doing this too, but like I'll take in input, but I
- 1:20:20don't even really fully like that mega gripped up like type
- 1:20:26of driving. I feel like if there's a there's
- 1:20:29a there's a level below that that I like.
- 1:20:31That's what I'm trying to get the IS to every single time.
- 1:20:35I think a front sway bar, a thicker 1 and then leaving the
- 1:20:39rear 1 stock is my next one 'cause I'm watching videos of
- 1:20:44the car and it does have like a lot of sway roll in the front
- 1:20:50and then it causes the back to lag.
- 1:20:52But I don't want to stiffen up the rear because I want the rear
- 1:20:55to have. I stiffen all my shit.
- 1:20:56Up as much. As possible.
- 1:20:58I don't have a rear sway, but I only have a front.
- 1:21:00That's fine. Anytime I see my car have body
- 1:21:02roll I'm like Nope get rid of that.
- 1:21:04Stiffen everything up. But then, but then you're not
- 1:21:06letting the, you're not letting the suspension like work.
- 1:21:08I know, I know what I'm doing, yeah.
- 1:21:11But his car moves well, I mean, you know what it is?
- 1:21:13It's it's he's developed his driving around.
- 1:21:15Around the car, because when I was when I was driving that car,
- 1:21:18I dude, I was not like nerding out about anything.
- 1:21:21I was like, I want it to look the way I want it to look while
- 1:21:24it's driving. That was back in the I'll.
- 1:21:26Figure out how to make it work when I'm behind.
- 1:21:29That's the. Real guy?
- 1:21:30Damn. Oh fuck, that's kind of stupid.
- 1:21:32I don't know the guy's name. He drove a blue coupe.
- 1:21:38The thing was literally on the floor.
- 1:21:41Oh, I know the car you're talking.
- 1:21:44He used to drive eats him, he used to shred but the car was
- 1:21:46literally slammed. Yeah, it was slammed.
- 1:21:48It's like, oh, it's funny because all the, all the.
- 1:21:49Was this was he boys with Joe A? Curso or whatever yeah right
- 1:21:53yeah he was his his friend that whole group of yeah that that
- 1:21:56group of kids but the car was literally literally like I have
- 1:22:01a video of it on my Instagram If I I probably got to unarchive
- 1:22:04it, but it's it's probably from like 2015.
- 1:22:08It's him driving out of the event like.
- 1:22:10Yeah, I remember that. I just.
- 1:22:12Completely definitely had a hole in his exhaust.
- 1:22:15Was dragon pebbles and shit. Now, what's his face?
- 1:22:17His car is about that same height.
- 1:22:19Braden. Yeah, yeah, it was.
- 1:22:21It was literally the same height as that kid Braden's car.
- 1:22:23But it is. Braden's car is one of my
- 1:22:25favorite cars. Here's the craziest part.
- 1:22:27This is the easiest part. This kids car was KA and it all
- 1:22:31it was it was all motor KA and he used to fucking.
- 1:22:34Shred, I remember. Track, but probably that
- 1:22:37probably because bro, who was? That why don't we remember?
- 1:22:40I don't know, probably because it was.
- 1:22:42The the alignment not being as effective was probably helping
- 1:22:46him at that point. I don't even I.
- 1:22:48Know this dude could. Drive I don't it.
- 1:22:50Was so weird. It was.
- 1:22:51It was a different time dude. God, someone's got to, someone's
- 1:22:54got to listen to this and and tell us it's.
- 1:22:55Going to be a club loose. I'm not a I'm not a check my
- 1:22:58Instagram, honestly. Because I feel like I should
- 1:23:00know who this is. Like I feel like I actually know
- 1:23:02this. Person.
- 1:23:03Yeah, I feel like we all should. I feel like they got rid of that
- 1:23:06car or something and they moved on to something else and we just
- 1:23:08aren't making the connection right now.
- 1:23:09Yeah, yeah, that's what I think, literally, but I don't know if
- 1:23:11I'm right, but I remember seeing that car.
- 1:23:13You'd see it flying up, just fucking.
- 1:23:16Yeah, you, you, you'd hear him taking the pebbles with him down
- 1:23:20the bed and you're. And they'd be.
- 1:23:21Like that's AKA and we're like what?
- 1:23:24Like crazy shit. Probably A49 hats have been but
- 1:23:28he's in it. I fucking it dude 'cause he I
- 1:23:30looked like third gear. I would assume 'cause he he was
- 1:23:32moving. Dude, he was driving like Hop
- 1:23:34couldn't. Like it was crazy shit.
- 1:23:36Yeah, yeah. Driving like Hop, I saw Hob last
- 1:23:39weekend. Oh yeah.
- 1:23:41Yeah, good. And oh, it was nice to see you
- 1:23:43there, Frankie. Everyone's like, where's
- 1:23:45Frankie? I'm like, I don't know.
- 1:23:46That no one said yeah it. Did that's cap?
- 1:23:49Josh Roloff asked me where Frankie was.
- 1:23:50Where Roloff was. There, Yeah.
- 1:23:54You know, sometimes we just have days where we just, you know, I
- 1:23:58want to do. Anything.
- 1:23:59I post some pictures of Josh's E46.
- 1:24:03Yeah, with the S14. T Yeah.
- 1:24:05Was that the was that around the time when you had your E46 that
- 1:24:09probably made you fucking? Years before.
- 1:24:10Oh OK, that was the first BMW with JDM arrow.
- 1:24:14I'm like that wasn't. Years before he had that car in
- 1:24:18like 2000. 14 By the time I got my E46 he had like sold it to
- 1:24:23like that dude in Ohio. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:24:27That happened in 2016. Fifteen, 1516 is when he sold
- 1:24:30that car. All right, so he had it.
- 1:24:31He had it while I had mine. But you know, mine, just mine
- 1:24:34was just like not anywhere near his.
- 1:24:36I was just like some kid who just got into.
- 1:24:38It that shit looks sick though. Man, I don't even like BMWs and
- 1:24:41I. No, but it was it was the first
- 1:24:43JDM arrow style. Yeah, BMW state like in America.
- 1:24:47Yeah, Well, I mean, I, I that's, no, it definitely is, though,
- 1:24:50between him and Matt Wong. Yeah, that that car looked.
- 1:24:53Good too, and it felt his felony but.
- 1:24:54It had AV 8. Felony, yeah.
- 1:24:56So. Felony form was made.
- 1:24:59Hell you guys are talking about this is an era before me.
- 1:25:02So felony form it was. Just club loose.
- 1:25:04Rest in peace. Ollie was this company out of I
- 1:25:07think Ollie is from upstate New York, but he was the first
- 1:25:10person him. He was linked up with the
- 1:25:13Broadway Static dudes and like the beginning of their starting
- 1:25:15to do Jace from Jace is actually from New York City, who owns
- 1:25:19Broadway Static. I remember that.
- 1:25:22They have hence the name Broadway static.
- 1:25:24Yeah, it's this Dominican dude from Uptown who actually owns
- 1:25:27that company and ran it him Jays.
- 1:25:29They actually almost started all they were so close.
- 1:25:32They started this almost out of this huge thing.
- 1:25:34They had E30 sixes on Broadway static and felony form arrow
- 1:25:39back in the day and it was like almost the greatest thing, but
- 1:25:42like, you know, I would nothing it didn't really like fall into
- 1:25:44place like that. It wasn't like not that they had
- 1:25:47like a crazy partnership or nothing like that.
- 1:25:49You know, just the way everything could have worked out
- 1:25:51with like the trifecta of everything would have been
- 1:25:53fucking great, you know, but T started the first like E36 over
- 1:26:00Fender and like JDM arrow company.
- 1:26:02It just never really like. Was that the?
- 1:26:05Never really like took off. Never.
- 1:26:06What was the name of that company?
- 1:26:09Felony form. OK, they visit.
- 1:26:11Yeah, there was another one at club.
- 1:26:12Lucy what they made like BN style that that came like a few
- 1:26:15years after quiz tuning click yeah, I got I was sponsored by
- 1:26:19that metal time too when I had my my 8:36.
- 1:26:22Yeah, because they had all the arrow for for BMWI think I like
- 1:26:25I. Remember that was actually a
- 1:26:26click tuning, but OK, there was, I got a, there was something I
- 1:26:29didn't like about the click tuning skirts with E36.
- 1:26:32It's because of that front I got.
- 1:26:34It's like really thick. I got some.
- 1:26:36I got some dirty laundry to air out.
- 1:26:37What the fuck? Here.
- 1:26:39We go do it, do it, do it. Guys all right, so I was
- 1:26:43sponsored by click tuning and like alright, so my my S13, my
- 1:26:46one of my my my coupe. They actually sent me a free
- 1:26:48like aero kit for that car That was fine.
- 1:26:51You know, like the kit was, it was like ABN Rep kit or
- 1:26:53whatever. I remember, yeah.
- 1:26:55That was cool. They sent me a kit for my E36.
- 1:27:02I didn't use it. I had a Huxley Motorsport kit on
- 1:27:05my car. 'Cause that shit.
- 1:27:06'S crazy. It's better.
- 1:27:07Isn't that expensive? Yeah, it's expensive and it's
- 1:27:10like hard to get. It's like rare.
- 1:27:11So my friend had. One Derek just had.
- 1:27:13I knew it. I knew it, bro.
- 1:27:14Derek just happened to find somebody who happened to have
- 1:27:17it, and they were like, yeah. Yeah, my friend had a Huxley
- 1:27:19kit. I bought the whole kit from him
- 1:27:21and I was, I just put fucking click tuning stickers on that.
- 1:27:28And what did they did they say something.
- 1:27:29Oh, the guy lives in fucking Latvia.
- 1:27:31He never, you know, he never saw the car in person.
- 1:27:33I just, you know. Who's selling their stuff here?
- 1:27:37At that time, a lot of people were.
- 1:27:39Yeah, a lot of people were selling their shit.
- 1:27:41Dude. I think I like E46 is more than
- 1:27:43E36. I wasn't like selling their
- 1:27:45stuff. As a as a daily I would like.
- 1:27:47AI think it's just because of Josh's car.
- 1:27:49Like that shit just looked so good.
- 1:27:51It's funny 'cause I don't even know what I was using the
- 1:27:53sponsorship for because like I was using the click tuning kit.
- 1:27:56So I wasn't I like I didn't ask them to send me anything, you
- 1:27:58know, from I was using the Huxley kit.
- 1:28:00So I didn't ask them to send me anything from quick tuning.
- 1:28:04So like I just kind of just. Had you were just helping them
- 1:28:06out? Yeah, yeah.
- 1:28:07Kind of just like free free reference.
- 1:28:09That is not that dirty laundry, Derek.
- 1:28:10I thought you were going to say like.
- 1:28:12Derek definitely has way. More shit to say.
- 1:28:13It's pretty. You're pretty involved.
- 1:28:16You're pretty. Involved, probably.
- 1:28:17You're the mayor. Can we go back and talk about
- 1:28:22that event in California? Because we just talked about the

- 1:29:10That was like fucking. I'm using third gear.
- 1:29:12Was he the one? OK.
- 1:29:15And Daryl was the one who kind of figured out that there was
- 1:29:18this guy like he was. Daryl was really the relay of
- 1:29:22information. Daryl also found that Airbnb.
- 1:29:25Daryl also like told them how to tune their car.
- 1:29:27He's like, yo, do they change this?
- 1:29:28Yeah, he was like, he was like, hey, man, look, it's going to be
- 1:29:30worth it. Better if you like, just keep
- 1:29:32all the same tires or whatever. I'm like, Daryl's running this
- 1:29:35bitch. Yeah, it seemed like Daryl was
- 1:29:36running the business. Yeah.
- 1:29:38But yeah, no. Him and Derek fucking did at
- 1:29:42least like I don't know how many laps and at Grange it's it's
- 1:29:47tiring track. I did those two laps or
- 1:29:50whatever. I was tired like it was.
- 1:29:53But he some I mean, so they told they told them they could only
- 1:29:57use second gear. I don't fucking know why, but
- 1:30:00anyway, so you guys are entering second gear.
- 1:30:03Whatever. I was like, this is fucking
- 1:30:04boring as hell. Like they need to they need to
- 1:30:06just shift in the 3rd and then I.
- 1:30:07Think Why are you laughing? I think Daryl was the one that
- 1:30:10shipped in the third phone for. Like 2 seconds shouldn't have
- 1:30:13done that. Oh.
- 1:30:14Wait, why? Oh no.
- 1:30:16Why did you look at? The chat and this shit, a lot of
- 1:30:18people are watching. People are watching.
- 1:30:24We were talking about how you actually did a few laps with
- 1:30:27that Z. There was 2 ZS, but one of them
- 1:30:30felt much significantly better than the other I think.
- 1:30:34Man. Did you know about the don't use
- 1:30:36third gear rule? See I did after a while, but I
- 1:30:43got to use third gear for a good while before he told me.
- 1:30:46Oh and then after that I just like.
- 1:30:48I didn't figure it out till late but after a while I started just
- 1:30:51using third gear. Real.
- 1:30:52Quiet. Hey everyone, Everyone.
- 1:30:53I was going just first to third. I was just.
- 1:30:58That's a good idea. Though I was revving out first
- 1:31:00really hard, like yeah. And I was just going to 3rd like
- 1:31:03that's. A good idea?
- 1:31:04That is a good idea. Meanwhile, I'm over.
- 1:31:08Here. I did that for like, I did that
- 1:31:12a few laps too. And then I asked them, I'm like,
- 1:31:14what's going on? Oh, we can't use third gear.
- 1:31:16I'm like. What I would have broke I like.
- 1:31:19Frank, you. I remember his reaction.
- 1:31:20He was like. I'm like what?
- 1:31:22How You might as well not even drive.
- 1:31:24What kind of shit is that? Yeah, 'cause it was not
- 1:31:26happening. That first turn was not.
- 1:31:28Like that's a crazy like stipulation and they're like,
- 1:31:30oh, I rented a drift car UK and they no third gear.
- 1:31:34You know you rent the. Car, the tires, like tires put
- 1:31:36on everything. You know Tesla, everyone's they
- 1:31:39put you in the car, they put the helmet on all right, awesome
- 1:31:41harness everything about start the car everything June.
- 1:31:44All right, all right, you're going to go next.
- 1:31:46Oh, by the way, no third gear, huh?
- 1:31:47And then you just fucking go like.
- 1:31:49Literally they threw it in there.
- 1:31:50He was. He didn't tell me till like my
- 1:31:524th live. That was the hardest I've ever
- 1:31:55driven anyone else's car that wasn't my own.
- 1:31:58Yeah, because you're bouncing off because.
- 1:32:00I just, I was driving it and immediately, first of all,
- 1:32:04immediately that car was easier to drive than any car I've ever
- 1:32:08driven. I was like, oh.
- 1:32:10Pretty. Easy like wow, like it's pretty
- 1:32:12nice. And so then after that I was
- 1:32:14like, oh fuck, like this is pretty boring now without me
- 1:32:17having being able to like use third.
- 1:32:20I just remember seeing Daryl fly down fucking you just hear him
- 1:32:24shifting third. I'm like.
- 1:32:26Yeah, flings that shit. I was like, yes, but I don't
- 1:32:31know, Were they really watching that?
- 1:32:32Like, Oh yeah. My concern was that I would get
- 1:32:34to giddy because it was a loud ass car and I was in there.
- 1:32:37Like I would get to giddy and not think about how close that
- 1:32:42wall can come up. I'm.
- 1:32:43I'm sure that's why they don't want people shifting a third but
- 1:32:45it's like dude. You're renting out a drift.
- 1:32:47Car if they I feel like if they see you like handling it well.
- 1:32:51Then they should tell you. Yeah, like I was.
- 1:32:52It's not like I was like fucking going in the.
- 1:32:54I wasn't good at I don't you think I don't wanna you think I
- 1:32:57would you think I want to go into the wall.
- 1:32:59I like is that is that I mean I really.
- 1:33:01Think. That's what I've been seeing on
- 1:33:03the Internet. Yeah, people might just do that.
- 1:33:06It looks some people do it for fun.
- 1:33:07Yeah. What it's like, yo, it's my
- 1:33:10Grange landmark. I hit the big wall.
- 1:33:12Yeah. I don't want to hit the big wall
- 1:33:15'cause I don't want to spend $1300.
- 1:33:17No place, Cinder. Blocks.
- 1:33:19I keep replacing it. Yeah, they charge you for that.
- 1:33:22Yeah, yeah, they charge you, you gotta pay.
- 1:33:24Yo, all the tracks in California if you like.
- 1:33:27If you're damaged, you're paying.
- 1:33:28Like Adams, I think that Adams. Is the one people don't even
- 1:33:32people are like scared to drive there.
- 1:33:33I don't want to drive. Yeah, I'm scared to drive.
- 1:33:34But I like to. Track, I take that back.
- 1:33:36I don't know if the locals are. I know I am.
- 1:33:38I'm scared, I don't want to pay. Even know what I don't know what
- 1:33:41that track is. If you if you run the wall and
- 1:33:43like actually hit the wall, you got to pay.
- 1:33:45Yeah, that's like that reminds me of the track that was over
- 1:33:47here where they did one of the final ballot.
- 1:33:49This is factual. You can you can Google this.
- 1:33:52And that's not me being cheap, I just don't want to fucking pay.
- 1:33:54For a wall, no one wants to pay for that.
- 1:33:56What the fuck's what? It's like 13.
- 1:33:58Beefing. I'm going home, there's
- 1:34:01fighting, I'm literally getting in my car and I'm driving away.
- 1:34:04From you're going to have to call the authorities.
- 1:34:05And you're going to have to sue me.
- 1:34:07You are going to call have to call the authorities to extract
- 1:34:09these funds for me. Yo, how about when the
- 1:34:12helicopter landed, yo? They shut down.

- 1:34:31event I've ever experienced at was at a track.

- 1:37:22crazy. Now we know what happened to the
- 1:37:24Harley. OK, now you.
- 1:37:25You, you, you. That I must admit that car did
- 1:37:29that car definitely had some issues, but it's still that's
- 1:37:33come on dude, 20 minutes come on.
- 1:37:35OK. It was like, alright, I warmed
- 1:37:37it up. I forgot to check it.
- 1:37:40Forgot to check it. Did a couple laps.
- 1:37:42No, not even. I drove down the street.
- 1:37:44I drove down the street. I didn't do anything aggressive.
- 1:37:47I didn't Rev it high. I took a turn too sharp.
- 1:37:50It dry sumped. Like like I literally took a
- 1:37:54turn and heard it go. Like I heard like, yeah.
- 1:37:58Yeah, he fucked that up. And I was like.
- 1:38:01Oh, OK. OK.
- 1:38:01Why don't you like HR One? 100% my fault.
- 1:38:04HR Revs. The 8 grand.
- 1:38:06Everybody. I don't know.
- 1:38:07I'm not gonna lie. Yeah, they do.
- 1:38:10But all right, what years? Because I, I, I'm, I'm gonna be
- 1:38:13frank with you. Everybody just tells me to blow
- 1:38:15up. So I just stay away.
- 1:38:17Everybody I know. Dick Ratty.
- 1:38:18For real, everybody. Everybody I know who's had one,
- 1:38:20it's. Just DE Rev up.
- 1:38:22HR Everybody I know who's had one goes back to DE.
- 1:38:25No way you're 7:00 to 2:00. Everybody I know who's had one
- 1:38:28goes back to DE. Because it blows up.
- 1:38:31That's what I hear. I kind of heard the same thing
- 1:38:33before, but it's weird. The one that you drifted mics?
- 1:38:35That's HR Revs to 8000 I think. I would I would take the I
- 1:38:40normally I would take the newest one of anything.
- 1:38:42You know who's got the? Best round like I get it 370,
- 1:38:45you know what I'm saying? I just, I I gotta look into the.
- 1:38:47I don't I'm I don't know the variations.
- 1:38:50Honestly, I don't think there's anything different between the
- 1:38:52bottom ends. I don't know the new, like the
- 1:38:54new generation variations between like V37HR, like I don't
- 1:38:58know. I don't know any of that shit.
- 1:39:00I'm gonna be, frankly. Best sounding Z Bryson sent or
- 1:39:04no? Our other friend Hald and sent
- 1:39:05me. One I know Ade with like a
- 1:39:07plenum spacer and like a throttle body I feel.
- 1:39:11No, no, no, this one. Take rips.
- 1:39:12This one was what I boosted. It was, I think, supercharged
- 1:39:17and it was on a haltac and it sounded ballistic.
- 1:39:21Supercharged. I don't.
- 1:39:22Trust boosted Vqs. Neither do I.
- 1:39:26They all die. Every single.
- 1:39:27One yeah, and they don't even make a lot of power while
- 1:39:29they're boosted. I'm not gonna lie like I'm yeah,
- 1:39:33I'm a big G35 guy, big 370 guy. I'm a big stock VQF.
- 1:39:40I'm I could do stock V QS. I could do like FBOVQ, see not
- 1:39:44FBO. And I don't want to hear your
- 1:39:45fucking verbal what? The hell is the FBO?
- 1:39:47Like full boat on, like I'll do like intake, you know, like
- 1:39:51intake exhaust a tune. I don't know, verbal tunes.
- 1:39:54No, like stupid shit like that, obviously.
- 1:39:56That's fucking insane. Yeah.
- 1:39:57I feel like no one in the drift community builds those bottom
- 1:40:00ends either. They're like, oh, blew another
- 1:40:01one, go get another one. You know what's crazy, I was
- 1:40:03actually just looking into that today 'cause I was like, I, I
- 1:40:06wouldn't boost it, but I was like, what are the NA options
- 1:40:08for this thing? And the most I'm seeing is
- 1:40:10people only making like. 3300, yeah.
- 1:40:13Three 350, yeah. You're not going to make more
- 1:40:15than that. You're not.
- 1:40:16Definitely not making more. No, no.
- 1:40:18So it's like for all that, you know, just.
- 1:40:21One day, one day I'll. Maybe wait for the eco boost kid
- 1:40:23or some or fuck. So fuck, marry cool, what's
- 1:40:26going on? OK, marry the.

- 1:41:32be the holy? I always get nervous.
- 1:41:34Yeah, I see him scrolling. There's.
- 1:41:35Yeah, I yeah, I was just going to say it to you.
- 1:41:37I get nervous when I see all those people in there.
- 1:41:39I don't know what's going on in there.
- 1:41:42Let there's literally no other VQ like engine wise questions.
- 1:41:45That's fine. Here's another one to bring it
- 1:41:47back to your roots. Your name is Derek on the
- 1:41:48bicycle. Everybody's asking what kind of
- 1:41:51bicycle is it. You can even go in depth with
- 1:41:56like the literally what kind of BMX?
- 1:41:58Like do you ride the last bicycle?
- 1:42:00It was was an FBM, which is, if you don't know, that's a company
- 1:42:05which actually the abbreviation for is Fat Bald Men.
- 1:42:09I swear to God it's a company ran by this dude named Steve
- 1:42:12Crandall. He's from upstate New York,
- 1:42:15pretty heavy foot in BMX in the industry.
- 1:42:18Is he? Is he heavyset in bald?
- 1:42:20He's actually heavyset, but he's not bald yet.
- 1:42:24As far as I, I don't think he's bald yet.
- 1:42:26Interesting man. She had a full set of hair last
- 1:42:29time I checked, but a lot of the dudes on the team were bald but
- 1:42:31weren't fat surprisingly because they wrote pro BMX.
- 1:42:34But that's a good frame or whatever.
- 1:42:36Heavy duty American steel. Yeah, so you want American made
- 1:42:41bike? I did because I, I did a lot of
- 1:42:43bikes. I, I guess I did a lot of see,
- 1:42:47it's, that's the thing with BMX like back in the day, like you
- 1:42:50kind of bought your frame oriented closer to what you do,
- 1:42:53you know what you like to do. So like I rode a lot of skate
- 1:42:55parking trails, you know, so, and also the FBM has like a huge
- 1:43:01one, New York based company. I'm from New York, you know what
- 1:43:04I'm saying? 2 They did a lot of trail based
- 1:43:10right What is? Trail based right?
- 1:43:11You're talking to someone that doesn't know anything about BMX.
- 1:43:13Fucking growing up digging dirt jumps in the woods.
- 1:43:15OK, that's what I thought. But like, you know, actually
- 1:43:17really nice dirt jumps, like, you know, like handcrafted art.
- 1:43:20That sounds pretty cool. It it is, you know, so like they
- 1:43:23had a heavy foot in that and did a lot of inspiring on me growing
- 1:43:26up. So you know, I it's only right.
- 1:43:28I supported the brand and bought FBM frame.
- 1:43:31I mostly did a lot of. What headphones?
- 1:43:36No, I, I think I'm good. Yeah, I'm sure something went
- 1:43:39out. I did a lot of FBM bikes, S&M
- 1:43:44bikes, Kink, Biko, pretty much a lot of like, pretty traditional
- 1:43:49American stuff honestly. Like what do you have?
- 1:43:51Now, as far as nothing right now?
- 1:43:52Oh. You don't have a bike.
- 1:43:53I don't have a bike. Right, you gotta change your
- 1:43:55name. I'm handy.
- 1:43:55Derek on the foot cycle. You know what it is?
- 1:43:58I want to change my Instagram name but it's like.

- 1:44:07Lane solidified. Dude at Where were we?
- 1:44:10I've tried it but you know it ends up back to this. 12:00 We
- 1:44:14were at English Town for Team Brown event cookout and Derek
- 1:44:20did a flat 3 on a BMX bike I. Wish I knew that.
- 1:44:23Man, right there flat 360. So like you're just rolling
- 1:44:26Yeah, at us. He was going oh, and he just did
- 1:44:29360 right there, just. I Bunny hopped and rotated 360°
- 1:44:34if you. Could do a flat 3 in my opinion
- 1:44:38you're kind of still on it. You you, you could go and do
- 1:44:41that if you wanted to. Still right 100%.
- 1:44:44Can we fix the mini ramp at club loose and get you and Alex on
- 1:44:46that thing? Oh.
- 1:44:49Yeah, Alex would. Me and Alex actually rode rode
- 1:44:52that mini ramp like I want to say, was that Alex?
- 1:44:57Oh. I think I know.
- 1:44:58Well, not that long ago, do you? Remember when Scott was there?
- 1:45:01Scott. Yeah, yeah, exactly, exactly.
- 1:45:04Bro, he was. That was the.
- 1:45:05Hammered. He was hammered and he was
- 1:45:08killing it. It was the weirdest thing I've
- 1:45:10ever on. Skateboard.
- 1:45:11Yes. Yeah, Scott, yes, from this
- 1:45:13action, yes. This was East Coast.
- 1:45:15That doesn't even shock. Me anymore East Coast bash like
- 1:45:17what, 20? 16. 15 There's a video, there's
- 1:45:20yeah, there's a video viewing Connor's video that you do look
- 1:45:23so young. And pro, I remember we were
- 1:45:25looking at Scott, we're like, how are you doing this right
- 1:45:29now? I don't fucking know.
- 1:45:30He couldn't even walk. And then he just gets on the
- 1:45:32board and he's doing crazy shit and everyone's like.
- 1:45:35Yo everyone's. Freaking out and he can't even
- 1:45:37walk. It was so weird, but that dude
- 1:45:41that was like that was probably one of the the most fun East
- 1:45:44Coast bash there's. No way there isn't people with
- 1:45:47some lumber at the house right now.
- 1:45:49Where you know who built that Front Street?
- 1:45:50It was Alex and 5050 Chris 5050 Skate Park.
- 1:45:54Yeah, yeah, they they put that together, but no one took care
- 1:45:58of it. It just sat outside and no one
- 1:46:00covered it. It's funny, a lot of people
- 1:46:02don't know this. A lot of people do.
- 1:46:05I actually know a lot of the guys on Front Street because of
- 1:46:08like that whole Ben Soto skate park in Staten Island.
- 1:46:13OK. We used to like, so Ben Soto
- 1:46:16Skate Park is part of, you know, Ben Staten Island being New York
- 1:46:19City. It's part of the New York City
- 1:46:22parks departments, like parks trade.
- 1:46:25They got a bunch of skate parks that they built.
- 1:46:26You know, a lot of the kids go to the different New York City
- 1:46:31Parks Department skate parks growing up.
- 1:46:33So like we would take the ferry across into Staten Island and
- 1:46:36take the train to Bentoto Skate Park, which is like the Front
- 1:46:40Street Kids local skate park. So I knew a lot of those guys
- 1:46:44before, like Chris Nazaro and Tom Nazar used to pick us up
- 1:46:48from, we used to in the winter time, like when like riding
- 1:46:50season was over because you know, like it's cold as shit up
- 1:46:52here in the Northeast. They'd pick us up, We'd take the
- 1:46:55Staten Island Ferry across and take the free train, train to
- 1:47:00Staten Island. We're free for some reason.
- 1:47:01Back in the day, we'd take the train though, back to like Ben
- 1:47:04Soto. They'd pick us up and drive us
- 1:47:06to Incline Club, Skate Park, indoor skate.
- 1:47:09Park the Kramers. Yep, skate park Jackson.
- 1:47:12Yep, that's a far as drive. Since we were like 11 years old,
- 1:47:16dude. Oh wow, so you guys knew them?
- 1:47:19You knew them for a while. Before we had Chris was the only
- 1:47:22Chris Nazario was the. He was the first one at.
- 1:47:25All he was the he had a fucking 1997 Ford Explorer and we used
- 1:47:29to cram into it. Nobody else had a car.
- 1:47:32Nobody else had a car. I I.
- 1:47:34Fucking love Chris, man, He I got, I got to he picked up some
- 1:47:37of this stuff that I painted the other day and fucking.

- 1:47:42I said alright, time to sell it. I was like.
- 1:47:44Wow. Because I know he wanted to sell
- 1:47:46it. Maybe he won't know.
- 1:47:47The whole time I was looking at it or I was painting, I was
- 1:47:49like, I know, I know you want to sell this, but.
- 1:47:54Yeah, just keep it. No, but you know, she's got to
- 1:47:57keep that. I forget that that Chris was a
- 1:47:59part of those adventures sometimes because he just does
- 1:48:02such serious crazy shit. Now he was the older brother.
- 1:48:06I know. Yeah, Chris was always.
- 1:48:07He was the older brother, you know, that was.
- 1:48:11So, yeah, In the winter time, we do that.
- 1:48:12In the summertime, we just go to the skate park.
- 1:48:14They'd always have like, contests and shit out there.
- 1:48:16We'd have skate park, we'd have contests at our skate park.
- 1:48:18They'd come out there to the Bronx and ride.
- 1:48:20I was a never a talented. It was always like, I could
- 1:48:23never, you know, do anything cool.
- 1:48:25And then we all just got in the cars.

- 1:50:14He was like, I'll donate a certain amount of money or some.

- 1:50:19like it was like a fucking preschool last book though.
- 1:50:21If you create a page out of this book, yeah.
- 1:50:23He was like, I'll give, He's like, I'll donate $50,000 at any
- 1:50:27like to any organization that you want if you could.

- 1:51:09Like he. He said that his assistant told
- 1:51:12him that, you know, Ja Rule had a concert in town and it was X
- 1:51:16amount of dollars and so he he said that.
- 1:51:21He fought almost and no one would be there.
- 1:51:27That's some diabolical. To me, to me, that's the most
- 1:51:32fucked up. Shit.
- 1:51:33Like, but it's funny because he's still getting paid.
- 1:51:36Like everyone still making the money.
- 1:51:37It just looks hilarious. Yeah.
- 1:51:40Like it's just like as a performer, as an artist, I would
- 1:51:42think that that was, you know, what I would do, which I don't
- 1:51:46know this. Yo, this show's sold out.
- 1:51:47Oh, I can't wait. Curtains open.
- 1:51:49Where the fuck is everyone? You know what I would do?

- 1:51:53best show that they got. Yo, nobody's sitting up here.
- 1:51:56Get up here. Yeah, come on.
- 1:51:57Get on stage with me. Fuck it.
- 1:51:59Like if you're actually here to see me.
- 1:52:00Then you'd be like, no, they're just like.
- 1:52:03You know what I mean? Like I'm.
- 1:52:04Really just thinking about the magnitude of that, yeah.
- 1:52:07Really. Because it really probably was.
- 1:52:09$1000 out of your pocket as $0.50.
- 1:52:13What is a couple thou? What's a couple thou?
- 1:52:15You got it exactly like what is now.
- 1:52:16I'm saying like for Ja Rule. It was a lot.
- 1:52:19It was. It was not.
- 1:52:19I'm saying the the magnitude for Ja Rule to really like like, you
- 1:52:23know, and he realized what really happened.
- 1:52:26There was a like. Shit, there was a few times.
- 1:52:28Like how do you deal with that? Bro you just texted 50 Cent.
- 1:52:31Really. Like, bro, I'll be like, I
- 1:52:35would. There's got to be some kind of
- 1:52:37truce button here, bro. He's been dragging that guy for
- 1:52:40like 20 years. But when but when he but when he
- 1:52:42talks about when he talks about it though, it's like very he
- 1:52:47said that whole story about him buying that the four first four
- 1:52:50rows and you would not have thought that he just said, hey,
- 1:52:54I just bought the 1st 4 rows out of your concert.
- 1:52:56Ha ha, Like he did not. It's not how he said it.
- 1:52:59No, he didn't tell him anything. Did he sell him?
- 1:53:01Anything. He was like, yeah, he, he just
- 1:53:04said what he did. He was like my first.
- 1:53:06My assistant told me that, you know, Java was having a concert.
- 1:53:10So yeah, I may have bought some seats.
- 1:53:13Or. Something I see.
- 1:53:14With $0.50 is always the funniest shit.
- 1:53:17He just seems like he's got morals that he actually stands
- 1:53:21on so. I mean those guys that's.
- 1:53:23Cool, I'm glad he just says whatever the fuck he wants to
- 1:53:25say. He's not hiding.
- 1:53:26Anything. I got to apologize to the
- 1:53:28podcast in advance. Oh shit, why?
- 1:53:30Carl poisoned me with Budweiser. Yeah, a little bit.
- 1:53:33That's fine. Feel bad.
- 1:53:34Damn. Well, I'm just, I was just about
- 1:53:36to talk about that time you rode bikes with ASAP, but OK.
- 1:53:39Make sure you take your headphones off we'll.
- 1:53:40Get right back. To that because because that's
- 1:53:43another thing like Derek. Derek just is in in random
- 1:53:47places. Loosened.
- 1:53:49Up music. Videos in the news.
- 1:53:54I don't know why Derek's been in the news before, but.
- 1:53:57Derek's kind of weird now that he's getting.
- 1:53:59I know, I know, Derek. Is losing help this is he doing?
- 1:54:02Nah, this is how Derek is Derek's fun.
- 1:54:04Bro. Chill out, Chill out, you're
- 1:54:05getting. Him, you're getting him kind of
- 1:54:06loosened up. I don't.
- 1:54:07I'm worried. Nah, this is this is this is the
- 1:54:09Derek that I know. This is fine, this is fine, this
- 1:54:11is fine. I thought he was going to be.
- 1:54:12What we should do? Answer a couple more questions.
- 1:54:16And then Patreon. Patreon, 30 minutes at least.
- 1:54:18That shit is going to be reckless.
- 1:54:20I just want to ask Derek a couple questions that I can't
- 1:54:23ask here. Exactly, there you go.
- 1:54:26That's why you go to the Patreon, which thank you
- 1:54:29everyone. Bro our Patreon is how many

- 1:54:42ever since final bout, like when we put those final ballots.

- 1:55:46you know. What are they?
- 1:55:47What? Are they?
- 1:55:48I talked to one person about one thing and then there's like a
- 1:55:50whole group of people who was like are.
- 1:55:53You going to get killed or something?
- 1:55:54Do we have to watch? No, I don't know.
- 1:55:57I'm, I'm going to personally, I'm going to deal with that
- 1:55:59after. We'll get to that.
- 1:56:00We'll cross that bridge when it comes.
- 1:56:01OK, we'll. Cross that bridge and we'll get
- 1:56:03there. What?
- 1:56:03Let's ask a question the. Next question go.
- 1:56:06On with the questions. I'm going to think about this in
- 1:56:08the meantime. It's it's it's the whole G unit
- 1:56:11thing. Oh God.
- 1:56:13It's coming back to haunt me. The G units coming back to
- 1:56:16haunt. Can't talk about it.
- 1:56:17Yourself to the devil. Can't talk about that?
- 1:56:21See, that's a secret. That's a secret.
- 1:56:24Yeah, I'll talk about G unit. All right.
- 1:56:25Next question. You know, that's what we thought
- 1:56:27that they're they're coming after.
- 1:56:29Derek, next question said. They're coming from and I'm
- 1:56:33like. Why aren't you saying anything
- 1:56:35about us? That's why Malcolm Mac versus
- 1:56:41Peterbilt, hey. Fucking Peterbilt.
- 1:56:44All right. Peterbilt versus Kenworth.
- 1:56:47Peterbilt. There's like, let me do 351.
- 1:56:52Look, I don't do drugs, but you know, on a on a daily basis I
- 1:56:56usually in my siphon lines and passing W nines What?
- 1:57:02Whatever. That's what I was saying.
- 1:57:04What is with the fascinate? I mean, actually there's like
- 1:57:07probably don't even got to worry about.
- 1:57:08That there's like a whole Peterbilt W9.
- 1:57:10No, I'm talking Peterbilt and Kenworth rivalry.
- 1:57:13I'm talking about like being low in the truck, but then like, why
- 1:57:17do we like to sit low in a drift car like?
- 1:57:19Cuz it's sick. Cuz it's.
- 1:57:21Cool, it's literally the same deal.
- 1:57:23Yeah, but when I'm in a truck, I feel like I could run over
- 1:57:26everybody. So you might want.
- 1:57:28To see, you might want to see just.
- 1:57:30Don't. Just don't.
- 1:57:32Just don't, dude. Next question about.
- 1:57:35OK, let's see. You should have the next one
- 1:57:39ready to go, by the way. Sorry, I just for the record.
- 1:57:42Yeah, here we go. Freaky on my fans.
- 1:57:46Was. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:57:48Since since all G35 kits suck like arrow wise, it's actually a
- 1:57:55good question what what would be an ideal body kit style for the
- 1:57:58G35 if you can make one exist. Well, young lad, I'm glad you
- 1:58:03asked me this. Shout out Sam, by the way, miss
- 1:58:06you bro. Shout out Also shout out Andre
- 1:58:09from SFP Arrow. There's some good things in the
- 1:58:12works for the G35 and G37 chassis, sedan and coupe wise.
- 1:58:18Is that what's his face? His.
- 1:58:19Friend in July, yeah, that's yeah, yeah, that's uses Friend
- 1:58:23uses from Thrash Racing. That's one of his close friends.
- 1:58:26They're going to be releasing full body kits for these cars
- 1:58:31and they're actually going to be looking good.
- 1:58:34OK, so. So we got some stuff to look
- 1:58:36forward to for this car. So no more, you know, no more.
- 1:58:40Derek, this sponsor driver. No more KBD.
- 1:58:43There it is. OK.
- 1:58:44Look, man. No more this close I'm.
- 1:58:48This close. Frankie, listen to that site
- 1:58:50Duraflex no more Duraflex no more KBD.
- 1:58:52Don't act like Duraflex hasn't been there for you for your
- 1:58:55entire. Life.
- 1:58:55I'm not, I'm not going to say anything bad about Duraflex.
- 1:58:58I'm just going to say we got some real shit now.
- 1:59:01We got some real stuff to really I'm this.
- 1:59:03Close to running IS300 KBDS. You're going to be able to talk
- 1:59:06shit. I'm this close.
- 1:59:08I'm this close. I'll.
- 1:59:09Take an angle. Grab that rear bumper is the
- 1:59:11only thing that's stopping me. Irving.
- 1:59:13Come on dude, just revise that. Shit sucks.
- 1:59:16Bro the front bumper and the side skirts are fine.
- 1:59:19Which one on the? KBD on this corner.
- 1:59:23Yeah, exactly. All right, next question.
- 1:59:25Look. It's OK, it's not going to
- 1:59:27happen. Carl knows I'll cut it for the
- 1:59:30angle grinder. Then then yellow the yen, then
- 1:59:34yellow fever. You just walk outside and your
- 1:59:37body gets cut in four different pieces.
- 1:59:40That's just an angle grinder. And I'll show you something
- 1:59:42after this. Final question, this is for all
- 1:59:45you guys. How do you all keep from getting
- 1:59:47overwhelmed with a project car? You yell at your friends.
- 1:59:51For. 5 1/2 minutes like we just did.
- 1:59:53You just stopped working on it for five years.
- 1:59:55Yeah. Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
- 1:59:58How do you do it? I said 5 minutes.
- 2:00:00I honestly, I'm not going to lie, I feel like I've mastered
- 2:00:02this. OK, Derek, let me hear it.
- 2:00:06Let me get laid on it. Come on, go, go.
- 2:00:07Sorry, just just repeat the question one more time just so I
- 2:00:10make sure I'm cool. Just.
- 2:00:11How do we? How do we?
- 2:00:13How? Do we not get overwhelmed on
- 2:00:14Project Cars? Yes, Project cars stop.
- 2:00:16From getting overwhelmed with project cars.
- 2:00:18All right, I mean, I'm sure you have your game plan laid out.
- 2:00:22You see, trust me, taking this advice from somebody who's never
- 2:00:25had a project car in his life, I kind of just buy a car and wing
- 2:00:28it as I go. I'm going to say this from the
- 2:00:33the best people I see who build cars, and most of these people
- 2:00:35honestly aren't Drifters and don't have Instagram.
- 2:00:38And just like, you know, they're just actually like people who
- 2:00:41this is genuinely their hobby. It's something that takes
- 2:00:45actually fucking years. It's usually not stressful
- 2:00:48because they spent so much time in between each installation
- 2:00:52process that they've done so much extensive research that it
- 2:00:56just falls into place kind of naturally for them.
- 2:00:59So. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
- 2:01:07That's for you. Just go from a bill a slight
- 2:01:10observation what I'm seeing so you know if.
- 2:01:12It's that cricket. Thing, it depends on what your
- 2:01:14ultimate goal is. If you're just trying to get out
- 2:01:16there and drive, you know what I'm saying?
- 2:01:17You don't want a project, you want to go get something that
- 2:01:20you can like that get out you know you want.
- 2:01:23To be spitting. Go get something that you can
- 2:01:25just go drive, you know what I'm saying?
- 2:01:27Like get something that obviously most things you can't
- 2:01:30just go drive. You're gonna have to do a little
- 2:01:31some too, but you know, it's it don't got to be a fucking
- 2:01:33project's worth, you know, a lot of.
- 2:01:35I'd say that you're onto something there, like people for
- 2:01:38some reason, like oh, what do you do when you're on the
- 2:01:41working on your project? First of all, if you're a
- 2:01:43drifter, probably shouldn't even have a project.
- 2:01:45It should be a car that you drift.
- 2:01:47Exactly. And it gets better as the years
- 2:01:50progress. Because like, like, let's, let's
- 2:01:52call a spade a spade here. Drifting is it's a, it's a, it's
- 2:01:55a pay to play sport. You know what I'm saying?
- 2:01:57Do you want something that looks nice?
- 2:02:00Just know it's not going to look nice for long, you know what I'm
- 2:02:02saying? Unless you're willing to like,
- 2:02:03really pay to play. Because if you get stuck in the,
- 2:02:06that's. Pretty much it.
- 2:02:07It's not going to look nice for long you.
- 2:02:08Know if you get stuck in the project Phase, I mean, it's kind
- 2:02:11of like me, like it's like, well, now the car's not.
- 2:02:13It's taken down to a point where you can't drive it unless you do
- 2:02:15a lot of work. And then unless you're going to
- 2:02:17focus your entire winter on that, it's, yeah, it could be
- 2:02:21down for a while. Yeah, like I'm, I'm skiing, you
- 2:02:24see, that's the thing. All right, so I have this whole
- 2:02:26theory like like Carl said earlier, but I never got back
- 2:02:29into it. I want to make my G35 drive more
- 2:02:33like my ass chassis. So I'm thinking in my head, all
- 2:02:37right, maybe I could like get a 4 cylinder up front, you know?
- 2:02:39Oh shit. Yeah, I'm thinking like, what if
- 2:02:42I do that? You know, with power?
- 2:02:45I mean like not power weight having nothing to do with power
- 2:02:48to weight or just just over. VQ or some in turbo?
- 2:02:51That's how. Do I get another engine and do
- 2:02:54it on the side? That's your project.
- 2:02:58That's thing it's like, do I want to put another a lot of
- 2:03:00money into AVQ to not make that much horsepower?
- 2:03:02I probably would. I would try that.
- 2:03:04That's VQ build AVQ yeah cams and.
- 2:03:07Not you don't have to go too crazy, but yeah, I'm just saying
- 2:03:10rebuild the bottom end so it's a little bit more reliable.
- 2:03:14I would do if I so if I'd rebuilt the VQ just off of basic
- 2:03:19knowledge of what I know about engines in general.
- 2:03:23I wanted to make horsepower with it.
- 2:03:25I would probably do piston rings for the VI do.
- 2:03:28Pistons. I do Pistons and rings, yeah.
- 2:03:32Do the Do they? Does anybody know if does VQ
- 2:03:35have cast the Does that forge crank or no?
- 2:03:37I don't know. All right, so let's just say it
- 2:03:40does it and I get forced crank, you know, do that shit, start
- 2:03:43there. Do Pistons do really fucking
- 2:03:47good rings? Yeah, I would just do a full
- 2:03:49bottom end and then I would throw a supercharger on it.
- 2:03:51Dude stop saying rings because I just want onion rings really bad
- 2:03:55right now. Cut ring gaskets.
- 2:03:59Onion ring. Zesty sauce, I guess.
- 2:04:02We've been off topic, Malc. Is there another question?
- 2:04:04That's it, that, that, come on, I know there's.
- 2:04:06More no but legit like covering gas because he has RP head studs
- 2:04:09and. Let me hear a dump.
- 2:04:11Probably some tome icams, yeah. And they make this really exotic
- 2:04:16looking VQ intake manifold that I've only seen on like.
- 2:04:20Kinetics. Time.
- 2:04:21No, no, see, that's that's like base, that's base exotic.
- 2:04:24Oh, it's base. This one is like actual exotic.
- 2:04:27They look like a fucking LS. I think that you should do when
- 2:04:30Nick did and put a Jay-Z in his shit.
- 2:04:33Sorry, you should you should mind your business.
- 2:04:35Yeah, sorry Nick, but I would not do.
- 2:04:36That is the best thing ever. I'm not going to lie, Frankie,
- 2:04:39so I. Can't talk to Carl about this
- 2:04:41though because he's got he got a Jay.
- 2:04:42I actually love Nicks car for that reason.
- 2:04:45I'm going to throw a curveball, everybody, and I'm going to see
- 2:04:47this publicly. Say eco boost, I swear.
- 2:04:50Before we go any further. I'm not going to write, you see.
- 2:04:53All right, Gem sport if you're listening to this.
- 2:04:55Is it eco boost? I was very tuned in to the eco
- 2:04:58boost thing, but I'm waiting for the motor mounts to come out.
- 2:05:03I'm very patiently waiting. I need those.
- 2:05:05Eco Boost. I feel like, look, don't get me
- 2:05:09wrong, poo poo boost don't. It does sound very terrible, but
- 2:05:13I feel like this, Matt. This wasn't Vance's card.
- 2:05:16Do you know who Vance is? Yeah.
- 2:05:18Yeah, yeah, yeah. I I got to listen to him.
- 2:05:21More he shreds. I feel like if we get enough cuz
- 2:05:24yo look the motor realistically, let's let's keep it real.
- 2:05:26This shit works. It's got high horsepower
- 2:05:28numbers, it's got high torque numbers, and most importantly,
- 2:05:31but you got a. Bird.
- 2:05:33What's a red? But you got a bird.
- 2:05:34New Ford motors are pretty damn reliable.
- 2:05:37The motors are reliable. That's what you that's that's
- 2:05:39the part that everybody don't want to hear.
- 2:05:41The Mustang sounds a lot better than the LS.
- 2:05:43It fucking works, you know what I'm saying?
- 2:05:45That's the part that nobody wants to hear.
- 2:05:46A lot of the new Ford shit works.
- 2:05:48I I'm coming from a Chevy guy. I got a fucking Silverado at
- 2:05:51home. Do you have bow ties in?
- 2:05:52There the new. Fords work.
- 2:05:54They work. Yeah.
- 2:05:55The new Chevy. You have been preaching these
- 2:05:57new Fords to me though. During COVID.
- 2:06:00During COVID, not COVID at right after COVID.
- 2:06:04Derek was a trans new 5O. That's exactly.
- 2:06:06What the new fucking the new the new Not even the new one but the
- 2:06:10ego boost motors. I feel like the.
- 2:06:11Mustang 5 O has been killing it for a while.
- 2:06:13Yeah, don't get me wrong. I is that called a coyote or
- 2:06:16something? But there was but there was a
- 2:06:18point in time where Derek was really, really like informing me
- 2:06:22about these Fords and the. Explorer The F150.
- 2:06:25The the the. Taurus.
- 2:06:28SHOSH. O yeah, I've only heard bad
- 2:06:31things about that new Chevy transmission.
- 2:06:34Yeah, exactly. Which tends to be breaks my damn
- 2:06:37heart. It's an Allison.
- 2:06:39It's not. It's not not not you can.
- 2:06:42Only the 6.6 is coming to Allison's.
- 2:06:45That's it. But I'm pretty.
- 2:06:46Sure. I'm pretty sure they're saying
- 2:06:47like it's it's a Ford trans. It just has a badge on it.
- 2:06:51That's what they're saying. No, Allison makes transmissions
- 2:06:53for everything. But they're saying like the new
- 2:06:55Allison, Ford, Chevy, that's a 10 speed is not really.
- 2:07:00It ain't the Ford transmission. The Ford transmission is a Ford
- 2:07:02transmission. Oh, I'm sorry, I meant Chevy.
- 2:07:05Yeah, it's breaking my heart. Yeah.
- 2:07:09Yeah. You're breaking my heart, kid.
- 2:07:10All right. Next question.
- 2:07:12You wanted the dumb ones? Has Derek clapped cheeks in AG?
- 2:07:24It's very easy, Derek. I'm going to say no, all right,
- 2:07:26But I just just just you couldn't figure that out on your
- 2:07:29own. Like that's what, that's why I'm
- 2:07:31perplexed. I'm just like I'm 62.
- 2:07:35The math doesn't work. No, I just don't.

- 2:14:29I was. Going to say he got a little,
- 2:14:30got a little drunk and so did Carl.
- 2:14:32Carl got a little angry at one point.
- 2:14:35Twice. Guys, we have a guest in the
- 2:14:38room today with us. Jimmy Oaks is here.
- 2:14:43Testing 1-2. He's like getting a car aligned
- 2:14:46right now, so we figured why not just have him on the outro?
- 2:14:48But yeah, So what do we got going on in the shop?
- 2:14:52I don't know more. Chassis.
- 2:14:54Chassis. What's whose coop is that
- 2:14:57outside? Ohh, the black one.
- 2:14:59Yeah, there's some random old guy he's had in his garage.
- 2:15:02Had it in his garage for like 15 years.
- 2:15:05What a dream. Yeah, it is the nicest coupe
- 2:15:08I've ever seen. It's yeah.
- 2:15:09I mean, he thinks that. Always one of those guys.
- 2:15:12Yeah, he thinks it's me. It's like the most.
- 2:15:14Minions one-on-one. Every time.
- 2:15:16You find like a sleeper call like that, Yeah, the got, yeah,
- 2:15:20there's no winning. Yeah, it's crazy.

- 2:15:24money now he's. Like you never seen one like
- 2:15:25this. I'm like I.
- 2:15:27Go walk in the garage. I've seen a lot of them, but I.
- 2:15:29Mean that makes it not cool anymore.
- 2:15:31Yeah, because you're just like. I mean, good for him.
- 2:15:34Nice now. It's like good for him that he
- 2:15:37thinks he has that, but then I don't know.
- 2:15:39But I will say I was more surprised though, because when
- 2:15:41we put on the lift, I was like, OK, the rust isn't everywhere.
- 2:15:44It is on the frame rails. Oh, is it?
- 2:15:46Yeah. Classic.
- 2:15:47So I'm like it's got rust on it. It needs, you know, he he was
- 2:15:51like, I'm going to spray it with the rust.
- 2:15:54I was like, it's not like rusted fair.
- 2:15:56You got to cut that out. Everybody puts pieces put the
- 2:15:59the spray foam in the frame round.
- 2:16:00Yeah. It's not really at that level.
- 2:16:03It's kind of past that. So, but no, it's cool.
- 2:16:05It's cool to see a car that's untouched.
- 2:16:07That's the main. Yeah, it's literally unmolested.
- 2:16:09Yeah, it's an unmolested S13 coupe, so.
- 2:16:12Driven normally has 100 something 1000 miles, but it.
- 2:16:16Has 100 something, 1000 miles but not.
- 2:16:18So it was daily driven when they got it.
- 2:16:21Yeah. Cool car though.
- 2:16:22I mean be a great car to destroy.
- 2:16:24Sunroof. Yeah, so it's got that starting
- 2:16:26too in the back. I saw the rust, Yeah.
- 2:16:30Car's not that cool. It's yeah, that's what I.
- 2:16:34Mean like I'll be too excited if it's like like I just saw
- 2:16:36unknown barfire car and you hear the story of you like.
- 2:16:38Yeah, like, I don't know about that anymore, but yeah, we had
- 2:16:42Derek on last night. That was cool.
- 2:16:44I don't know how so many people know Derek, but.

- 2:18:11it fun and we do it on a Saturday or something and like,
- 2:18:14I don't know, there's, there's. Something there like it'll be a
- 2:18:16meet at the same time almost. Yeah, yeah.
- 2:18:18Like some kind of like little cars and coffee type thing.
- 2:18:22There's something there I don't know.
- 2:18:23Oh. Honda.
- 2:18:24Yeah, we got a Honda. We could.
- 2:18:25Work with it, but. What else?
- 2:18:28We got that cool coop in the shop but we need more work so
- 2:18:31please bring us more. Work Oh yeah it's slow season
- 2:18:33now it's. Getting cold outside?
- 2:18:35Cars are starting to. Maybe Frankie can work on his
- 2:18:37car. That is, that's.
- 2:18:39Why he wants more work in here so he doesn't have to work.
- 2:18:40On his car, yeah. Exactly.
- 2:18:42I did think about that. I was like, damn, it's pretty
- 2:18:43slow now I'm I'm about to run out of stuff to do around here.
- 2:18:47That means I'm here because it's.
- 2:18:47Probably slow until, what, February?
- 2:18:49Yeah. And then it just starts to ramp
- 2:18:50back in. Yeah, literally.
- 2:18:51Not even I would say March or April.
- 2:18:53Like it's even worse. Yeah, you get that one day where
- 2:18:57the T-shirt might come out and it's like, oh God.
- 2:19:01Yeah, that's really. What it is, Yeah.
- 2:19:03Yeah, April is usually the month when everything starts coming
- 2:19:05back. February, usually January.
- 2:19:07February, usually the worst months.
- 2:19:09Yeah, yeah, I say. I mean just in all of retail,
- 2:19:11you go on holiday and no one wants to spend money, just want
- 2:19:14to hibernate, spend no money. Yeah, so we're getting a little
- 2:19:17nervous right now, but. It all work out.
- 2:19:20It always works. Out.
- 2:19:21It does always work out so. Come buy some shit.
- 2:19:23Yeah, come buy some. Stuff.
- 2:19:25Drop your car off. Drop your.
- 2:19:26Car off Buy a. T-shirt.
- 2:19:27And. Buy some origin.
- 2:19:29Make sure to check out our sponsors.
- 2:19:31Yes, East Coast Drift School. Where Jimmy is literally going
- 2:19:34about the. Head East Coast drift school.
- 2:19:36Why don't you do have own? Yeah to my whole program here.
- 2:19:40There we go. For you don't.
- 2:19:42Well, here's the thing, it's like, OK, maybe you need some
- 2:19:45some schooling, right? Maybe you need some schooling.
- 2:19:47That's great. It's awesome because you know,
- 2:19:49the first like 5 events or more of drifting is a wash because
- 2:19:54you get no laughs, you get no input, you have no idea,
- 2:19:57nothing. You can get 5 + a drift events
- 2:20:00done in one afternoon. Save yourself some time, save
- 2:20:04yourself some money. It's incredible.
- 2:20:06And then say, OK, maybe you're good, you got that down, but you
- 2:20:10need a test in tune. It's hard to go test your drift
- 2:20:13car right because even if you take it on the road and do some
- 2:20:16streeto, you can't really test it the way you.
- 2:20:19Would not the same? And open so East Coast Drift
- 2:20:22school test and tune and if you don't know how to set your car
- 2:20:25up, nap knows and he could help you out with that, which is nice
- 2:20:28too. And so it's kind of like, I
- 2:20:31don't know, it's really good for the community.
- 2:20:32So I was talking to Chris. I was like, can we build like a
- 2:20:35rental car or something that you that we can service and then we
- 2:20:38can this cool. I like the idea.
- 2:20:40You thought that might be good. We got to figure out how we're
- 2:20:42going to work it obviously because it's it could get bad
- 2:20:44and like someone could. Faction rental car, so it's got.
- 2:20:47To crash that. Yeah, the hard part is like
- 2:20:49you'd have to do like an S chassis just cause it'd be like
- 2:20:51I want to do. An S chassis BRZ or Z.
- 2:20:54It would be cool. So like ZS are great for the
- 2:20:57track rental cars 'cause they just are stout and they take a
- 2:20:59hit. Like I crashed mine so and it
- 2:21:01just it's fine, but like having the war of like a faction set up
- 2:21:04as Chass who pretty cool because, you know, just.
- 2:21:07'Cause it would. Be cool like if you did like a
- 2:21:09like a typical like B knuckle car and stuff like that, like
- 2:21:11who gets to just go like rent AB knuckle car and try that stuff?
- 2:21:13So I. Know, but it's scary.
- 2:21:15But it is scary. Yeah, I know.
- 2:21:17I'm thinking that too. S14 now that's 14 cooked.
- 2:21:19Yeah, if we if we just get a piece of shit car.
- 2:21:22If it gets wiped off and then clamshell the thing and you put
- 2:21:25origin on it. Yeah, you're right, Jimmy.
- 2:21:26We should probably do that. But damn it might get expensive.
- 2:21:28They RIP that rear pumper off. Let's take the bumpers off for
- 2:21:34you know, I screen them, do a couple runs.
- 2:21:36Screen them, Yeah, No, obviously you should probably shouldn't
- 2:21:39have arrow on the car, yeah, but I like that idea and.
- 2:21:42It'd be like oh, second gear only.
- 2:21:45There's a lot of two 40s out there that are, you know,
- 2:21:47rotted, too rotted to drive, you know what I mean?
- 2:21:49But like. Yeah.
- 2:21:50I mean if you just got to get one that's structurally not
- 2:21:53rotted, which most of them are, it's mainly.
- 2:21:55The floor pans that are gone. Or something plate in there.
- 2:21:58Yeah, just pick your feet up when you're driving it.
- 2:21:59You'll be all right. For some that thing.
- 2:22:02Don't drive over. Put All right, what do you got?
- 2:22:03Sponsors. Let's roll through them here.
- 2:22:05We got, we got chase bays, chase.
- 2:22:08Chase Bays, my boy, you don't like?
- 2:22:11About Chase. Bays, ask my boy talk.
- 2:22:13To him hype it up. I don't know, like Chase is
- 2:22:17sick. So like, I just, yeah, I love
- 2:22:19Chase as a human. He makes I like Chase because he
- 2:22:23the catalogue is very large. Yeah, they have it figured out.
- 2:22:26You know, I, I know like people have their opinions on certain
- 2:22:30parts. I've always had good luck.
- 2:22:31I think the big thing with an aftermarket part is
- 2:22:34installation, you know? Yeah, I had mixed feelings about
- 2:22:38them too. And then I talked to Tom and I
- 2:22:40talked to you and, and then I talked to Chase on the phone for
- 2:22:43like 2 hours the other day for the first time.
- 2:22:45He was an awesome guy. And I was like, OK, so they they
- 2:22:48fixed a lot of things. Yeah, and there's a lot of
- 2:22:50passion behind the products, you know, like sometimes when you,
- 2:22:52you know, like I like seeing that Chase has been more of a
- 2:22:54face of the brand the last few years.
- 2:22:56But when you don't see a face, sometimes you just think it's
- 2:22:58just like some dude in a garage just pinch it out from China
- 2:23:00trying to make some money. But no, they make they it's all
- 2:23:03made in house, like, Yeah, like, and most of it, you know, I
- 2:23:05mean, and if they if it is, it's made by a reputable
- 2:23:08manufacturer. That's yeah, it all overseas.
- 2:23:10Very high quality, yeah, from the pictures I see.
- 2:23:12Yeah, as long as you as long as you do quality control.
