• 0:00
  What's going on guys? We're back with another episode
• 0:03
  of After Hours podcast. On today's episode we have Ricky
• 0:06
  Hoffman. He is a close friend of ours.
• 0:11
  I've known Ricky for. I want to say, actually, yeah,
• 0:14
  we found out last night. I've definitely known him for
• 0:15
  like 12 years or longer. He's been driving club loose
• 0:20
  since I have. And yeah, dude, it was just, it
• 0:24
  was one of those people we had to get on the podcast because
• 0:27
  we've just known him for so long and now he's doing Formula Drift
• 0:30
  Pro Spec. So we had a lot of ground to
• 0:34
  cover in this podcast and I think we did a pretty good job
• 0:36
  of it. We didn't stray too far.
• 0:38
  There was one moment that involved Carl let a wild animal
• 0:43
  loose. You guys will probably enjoy
• 0:45
  that. But other than that tangent we
• 0:47
  went on, I think we covered a lot of stuff.
• 0:49
  Ricky gave us a lot of information about how running a
• 0:53
  pro Spec car and team goes and how much money you spend doing
• 0:59
  it. And yeah, if any of you guys are
• 1:01
  into competition driving, this is definitely going to be a
• 1:03
  great episode for you. Enjoy.
• 1:08
  This podcast is sponsored by East Coast Drift School.
• 1:12
  East Coast Drift School is a driving school focused on
• 1:14
  learning the art of drifting, Conveniently located at the
• 1:17
  greatest drifting facility in the United States, Raceway Park
• 1:20
  in Englishtown, NJ. Raceway Park currently has three
• 1:23
  tracks, so you will have a few options to choose from when
• 1:26
  setting up your lessons. Chris Knapp, who is part of the
• 1:28
  Raceway Park family, will be your teacher as he guides you
• 1:30
  through car setup and technique. If you are more of a seasoned
• 1:33
  driver, East Coast Drift School is also the place where you can
• 1:36
  get some extra seat time. Chris allows private track time
• 1:39
  with no instructing as well so that you can get some tests and
• 1:41
  tune runs in before that big event or competition you have
• 1:44
  coming up. Instead of spending the night
• 1:46
  dodging the police with your boys, consider signing up with
• 1:48
  East Coast Drift School the next time they release their
• 1:50
  schedule. Releases the schedule on the
• 1:52
  16th of every month through Instagram.
• 1:55
  Make sure to check them out, give them a follow and shoot
• 1:57
  over a direct message when you are ready to set up a date.
• 1:59
  You can find them on Instagram at East Coast Drift School.
• 2:03
  This podcast is also sponsored by Automotive Specialty Wraps.
• 2:06
  Looking to have your car ceramic coated or wrapped?
• 2:08
  Look no further than Automotive Specialty Wraps.
• 2:11
  ASW is a company specializing in paint protection, film, vehicle
• 2:14
  wraps, ceramic coatings and window tinting.
• 2:17
  Owned and operated by car enthusiasts and Drifters, their
• 2:20
  technicians have over 10 years of experience in the industry.
• 2:22
  They are located right off of Route 208 in Fairlawn, New
• 2:25
  Jersey. Other than window tinting which
• 2:27
  is something we all need at some point, it was the ceramic
• 2:29
  coating that really caught my attention back when they reached
• 2:31
  out to us. This coating basically gives
• 2:33
  your cars paint extra UV protection while also also
• 2:36
  making it shine. Wax only lasts a couple weeks at
• 2:39
  most, but ceramic coating lasts for a year or even longer.
• 2:43
  Honestly, this stuff is like witchcraft to me.
• 2:45
  Julian came down here one day to explain how it works and how it
• 2:48
  compares to wax and I was pretty stunned.
• 2:50
  They perform a full two stage Polish to the car beforehand
• 2:53
  just to make sure it's in perfect condition before
• 2:55
  applying the coating. As mentioned, they also offer
• 2:57
  window tinting and paint protection film installations.
• 3:00
  Now everyone knows what window tinting is, but these guys offer
• 3:03
  carbon or ceramic window tinting dependence depending on your
• 3:06
  goals with the vehicle. Paint protection film or PPF is
• 3:10
  a great idea for those new vehicle owners that don't want
• 3:12
  to watch their investment get littered with rock shifts.
• 3:15
  Also keep in mind they are capable of getting liveries
• 3:17
  designed and installed as well as full vehicle wraps.
• 3:21
  From protecting your tow rigs exterior to full livery
• 3:23
  installations on your drift car, they have you covered.
• 3:26
  They also recently added mobile washes.
• 3:30
  So the way they're doing this is they will post a story, there'll
• 3:32
  be a link in the story on their Instagram and you can click it
• 3:36
  where you will be able to enter your full address and it
• 3:40
  literally tells you the services they offer right there.
• 3:43
  It's pretty awesome. The options are just inside the
• 3:46
  car, just outside the car, inside and out, and then a full
• 3:50
  detail inside and out. So you click one of those and
• 3:54
  then it'll also give you some extras.
• 3:55
  You can choose if you got, you know, crazy amount of pet hair
• 3:58
  in the car. If you want, ceramic sealant,
• 4:02
  child seat cleaning, engine Bay detail option, wow, yeah,
• 4:08
  there's a there's a bunch of options on here.
• 4:09
  It's actually really awesome. They just called and told us
• 4:13
  about this. So I wanted to add this to the
• 4:17
  podcast because this is, this is like something I didn't know
• 4:20
  that detail places did. But now that I see this, we're
• 4:24
  probably going to use them ourselves.
• 4:25
  So yeah, check this out. If you can't get to a car wash,
• 4:29
  or if you know if you're at work or something, I'm sure they'll
• 4:31
  be able to come by and help you out.
• 4:33
  You can contact them over at automotive specialtywraps.com
• 4:36
  and make sure they give them a follow on Instagram at
• 4:39
  Automotive Specialty Wraps it. Might not be BLOB, not to think
• 4:48
  about it, but I know that I know what the movie is about.
• 4:50
  There is no movie named BLOB. Is there a movie named BLOB?
• 4:51
  I think it's. There is a movie named BLOB I
• 4:53
  think, but I don't know if it has.
• 4:55
  I thought it was a scary movie. Is it a scary movie?
• 4:56
  Yeah. Then most definitely.
• 4:57
  I have not watched it. I I'm a big fan of the happy
• 5:00
  part of the 80s, like like the cocaine and the denim jackets.
• 5:03
  Like, that's it. Those are fun.
• 5:06
  Anyway, welcome to the Faction After Hours podcast.
• 5:10
  We're here to bring you another episode back to our regular
• 5:13
  scheduled programming. As you know, we had our little
• 5:16
  what do we call that? What?
• 5:18
  Drift budget. Oh, the last episode.
• 5:20
  We had a little, we had a little game, but faction.
• 5:23
  Drifting on a budget? Oh, story of my life.
• 5:27
  That's why I think it's easy, like I'm like I lose my
• 5:29
  everyday. People love when we do this
• 5:31
  stupid game we made called drifting on Budget.
• 5:34
  I give him a budget. Factionario it's called.
• 5:36
  Drifting on budget and then and then like I have him and Chris,
• 5:40
  like you use the budget for a season of drifting, OK?
• 5:45
  And then you have to buy a car, right?
• 5:47
  Do whatever you have to do to it.
• 5:49
  Drift 5 events and not go over the budget.
• 5:53
  And then Frankie just throws curves ball at it, curveballs
• 5:55
  the budget. Well, it's last week it was
• 5:58
  $15,000. Dude, it's just.
• 6:00
  Ridiculously low, right? Oh.
• 6:01
  Yeah, yeah, it's. Very.
• 6:03
  Low though. Anyway, wait, first of all to
• 6:04
  our listeners, we have Ricky Hoffman.
• 6:06
  We have Ricky Hoffman in the building.
• 6:08
  I thought you did that. Already we didn't do, we didn't
• 6:10
  even do that. We just started.
• 6:11
  Talking I'm a no one. No that is Cat.
• 6:13
  That is Cat. I've we've I've known Ricky for
• 6:16
  a long time. I've known of Ricky for a long
• 6:18
  time but we've never met. So I'm pretty happy we get to
• 6:20
  meet right now because everyone, I've, everyone who we talked
• 6:23
  about, Ricky too, they're like, oh, he's such a nice guy, man.
• 6:26
  I'm pretty sure you were on my list for a long time.
• 6:28
  I had a list since we started. Well, I made one list when we
• 6:30
  started. You got a list.
• 6:32
  Huh. Did you lose it?
• 6:33
  I didn't lose it. I still have it.
• 6:34
  And there's it's like the same eight people that are on there
• 6:37
  and like if you were one of them, Reese Marin, like a bunch
• 6:39
  of map. Eddie's still on there, but
• 6:42
  yeah. You think he'll come on?
• 6:43
  I think he will, Really. I'm scared to ask.
• 6:45
  I think you'll have to do it at the track.
• 6:48
  Yeah, I mean, we might have to make some.
• 6:49
  Kind of it'd be cool. The thing is, Petty's, Petty's
• 6:51
  almost stopped by here a couple times, so I don't think he minds
• 6:53
  coming here. But I don't know.
• 6:56
  I I think he's gonna come. I want him and Tim to come on at
• 6:59
  the same time. I think that would be great.
• 7:00
  I think if you did that with them at the track, 'cause they
• 7:02
  could take you through so many memories there and just point at
• 7:05
  different spots of the track. Yeah, I don't mind doing it
• 7:07
  there either. I think it would.
• 7:08
  Be Frankie, we've literally hauled the fucking equipment.
• 7:11
  Yeah. All over the country.
• 7:13
  Yeah, we could do it. There, we can bring it an hour
• 7:15
  from here. Yeah.
• 7:16
  It's OK. But it would also be nice having
• 7:18
  him here. Too, it would be cool to do it
• 7:20
  at the train. Yeah, well yeah, it would be
• 7:22
  cool. We should just do a video of the
• 7:23
  track with them. That would be cool.
• 7:25
  That would be dope. Yeah, just film the whole thing.
• 7:27
  Yeah, and then? You're asking a lot of Malcolm
• 7:29
  right now because this is. Well, he fucking works here, so
• 7:31
  I'm hoping. I hope he can handle it.
• 7:33
  Malcolm Cam Malcolm Cam, You know.
• 7:34
  What I was thinking that when you were introducing.
• 7:36
  There he is. When you were introducing Ricky,
• 7:40
  I was thinking, did you get ran over by a supra?
• 7:42
  I did, yeah. That was one of the first things
• 7:45
  I ever knew about Ricky. Yeah.
• 7:47
  Man, was that that was pro bro down 2017.
• 7:49
  I was watching, man, I know a lot.
• 7:51
  About that event. Freaking.
• 7:52
  Act I didn't know a lot about drifting and I saw that happen
• 7:55
  and I was like, he's done right. I remember just standing behind
• 7:58
  the bleachers or something, and then you just hear a crazy noise
• 8:00
  and everyone's like screaming and we're like, what the hell is
• 8:03
  going on? Yeah, and I look over and you're
• 8:04
  like already getting. Can you explain to those of you
• 8:07
  who are? Impressed.
• 8:08
  You used to do demos all across the country.
• 8:10
  We drove together all the time like it was no big deal.
• 8:12
  Literally at all and everything. We'd just destroy each other's
• 8:15
  cars on a daily basis. This is Mike Perez.
• 8:17
  Mike Perez with the Supra. With the Supra, so it's pro bro
• 8:21
  down. I'm like getting done with a
• 8:22
  lap. I have no tire left in a car, so
• 8:24
  you go to the far right lane. I literally do the X out the
• 8:27
  window like to pull in and Mike Perez stops me and he's like,
• 8:30
  yo, I got Cameron Moore behind me but like I don't want to
• 8:34
  lead. I want to follow someone's Hugo
• 8:35
  and I'm like, dude, I have no tire left like I'm done.
• 8:37
  He's like, no, you'll be fine just go and I'm like all right,
• 8:40
  whatever. So I lead get to the hairpin,
• 8:43
  tire just cords itself out car like tries to over rotate.
• 8:46
  I try to stop it and Perez instead of following me took the
• 8:50
  new turn. So he was coming into the
• 8:53
  hairpin way hotter than I was because I did a regular layout
• 8:56
  and he just hit me. He was wheel to wheel and he
• 8:58
  just he came up, my front wheel came up all over my top like
• 9:02
  upper frame rail. My intake manifold had a mark on
• 9:05
  it from his frame rail and he came down and he never lifted
• 9:08
  his tire. Destroyed, destroyed a brand new
• 9:12
  body kit I just put on for that event.
• 9:15
  Completely ripped at the shreds. It was like raining.
• 9:17
  Did you ask him why he didn't let off?
• 9:20
  He said that he didn't want Cameron Moore to hit us because
• 9:22
  Cameron just finished building that pro car for him, so he
• 9:25
  didn't want to. Which I?
• 9:25
  Can run over Ricky then? Well, it was so normally in
• 9:28
  femos. Fuck.
• 9:29
  Fuck everyone else. We would.
• 9:30
  Drive and he had like a crazy angle kit in his car and I had
• 9:33
  cut knuckles so if I like something was going to happen he
• 9:35
  would bump me and we would just keep we progress through.
• 9:38
  So that's what he wanted to do, but instead of hitting my door,
• 9:40
  he hit my front wheel with his front wheel and just drove up.
• 9:43
  I feel like I remember not seeing a bumper on his car and I
• 9:47
  feel like that aided it because now the tire is going to make
• 9:50
  full contact and just. It just went bloop and I
• 9:54
  remember drive. So I had Justin.
• 9:55
  I don't know if it was Justin, Francisco's cousin or one of his
• 9:59
  friends were in the car with me first ever ride along.
• 10:01
  We did two laps, ran out of tire getting ready to go back in.
• 10:04
  I go out there and I'll never forget when he hits me.
• 10:06
  I just look over like this drive shaft and I'm just like, what
• 10:11
  the hell it's going on right now?
• 10:13
  And then just over my car and I'm like, damn, what the hell?
• 10:17
  I'm like sitting there for a minute and I'm like put the car,
• 10:21
  like put the car in first gear and just drive away and drift
• 10:23
  the bank turn like drifted a little backtrack.
• 10:25
  My car feels fine. I look behind me and presents
• 10:28
  right there. We both just drove away like
• 10:30
  nothing ever happened. We pulled into the pits,
• 10:33
  everyone came running up to us. The cars were perfectly fine
• 10:35
  other than looking like shit after that.
• 10:38
  And we were just like, all right, let's change tires and go
• 10:40
  back. Out.
• 10:40
  That's. That's what I'm talking about.
• 10:42
  I saw that happen and as somebody new to drifting kind of
• 10:46
  watching it, I didn't think that that was possible.
• 10:48
  I was like, that shit fucking ran over another car.
• 10:51
  Well, it makes more sense now that you explain what he what
• 10:54
  was going on with him? Because he thought he probably
• 10:56
  didn't even know you were spinning.
• 10:59
  I'm not sure what was going on in his mind.
• 11:01
  All that he knew was because. It seems like he was going to
• 11:03
  just, you know, business as usual.
• 11:05
  He's going to try to push. You bump me up, push me a little
• 11:07
  bit and we're good, but it just wheel to wheel and because he
• 11:09
  was still giving the car throttle at forward momentum and
• 11:12
  it just drove up. I feel like maybe you're tire
• 11:15
  also, like since it was spinning that way, maybe launched him up.
• 11:19
  I don't know. We didn't even get to get to the
• 11:22
  fact that it started the greatest series.
• 11:26
  Of. Memes.
• 11:27
  I've ever. Seen that was also the time when
• 11:29
  that stupid fucking song. Yeah, it comes up every year.
• 11:35
  Mike Perez texts me every year and he goes, our social media is
• 11:38
  going to blow up again for two days and all this different
• 11:41
  stuff. And of course, like, it's just
• 11:42
  going throughout Facebook. And I don't know how many views
• 11:44
  it has on it now, but I remember when it happened, that video was
• 11:48
  like over 1,000,000 views in like 2 days.
• 11:50
  That was crazy. What the hell is going on
• 11:52
  that's? Cool, though, now you're now
• 11:54
  you're part of, you know, Club Loose's history, yeah.
• 11:57
  Kind of. Yeah, that's.
• 11:58
  One of the. Weirdest hair done.
• 11:59
  I got ran over. You jumped that, you guys got a
• 12:02
  car to jump? Over another car.
• 12:04
  Without a jump. Without a jump.
• 12:05
  Without a jump. And both cars were fine.
• 12:07
  And you guys tripped it out. We finished the lap.
• 12:10
  That's even crazy. I don't remember that.
• 12:12
  He came over top of me on throttle, spun the car out.
• 12:15
  Neither car was turned off. We just continued in the bank
• 12:17
  and both of us chucked it into the bank, like that's how we
• 12:20
  checked to see if the cars were OK.
• 12:23
  That's cool. That's fucking crazy, right?
• 12:27
  But that's back then. That's what we did all the time.
• 12:30
  Yeah, that's just what we were doing like we were like.
• 12:32
  You were part of the group that really, you know, drove fucking
• 12:36
  hard. Oh yeah, the Flipsco crew.
• 12:38
  We were all all the cars were white.
• 12:39
  Yeah, who else was? In there it was me, Sal Depampo,
• 12:42
  Chris Allen, Mikey Walsh, Robbie.
• 12:44
  Anderson. Mikey Walsh Yeah, Yeah, OK Yeah.
• 12:48
  You guys were always driving hard.
• 12:49
  Like every, every event. You guys were driving hard.
• 12:51
  So. We all went white, the same
• 12:53
  color because they made that color in a spray can.
• 12:55
  In between sessions we would literally put the body kits back
• 12:59
  on, spray paint, all the shit that was wrong with it, and we
• 13:02
  just go back out like the cars were new again and everyone
• 13:04
  would be like these cars were just almost totaled an hour ago.
• 13:09
  We're like taking transit out, putting clutches in in between
• 13:11
  and stuff like that. We were.
• 13:12
  We were going hard for absolutely no reason other than
• 13:15
  it literally we were. Having it looks cool.
• 13:17
  It was so much fun. How long have you been drifting
• 13:20
  now, Ricky? Probably 11 years or so, maybe a
• 13:25
  little longer than that. 11. Years, 13 or 14, I think I got
• 13:28
  into it. Mikey was into it first.
• 13:31
  He got a S14 with an Sr. when we were 17 years old and we're 17
• 13:36
  years old kids. I had a Mustang GT 97 and we're
• 13:40
  just eating the hell out of these things absolutely
• 13:43
  everywhere and anywhere that we can.
• 13:44
  Is the 97 is that the SN? Is that what that?
• 13:47
  Is Malcolm's a pro at Mustang? Malcolm what?
• 13:50
  What Mustang? Did Ricky just say you're?
• 13:51
  A pro? I am not a pro.
• 13:52
  I like one of them. That's it.
• 13:53
  What do you like? The.
• 13:53
  One you like, what do you? Like I like the I don't know.
• 13:55
  I think it's a year 2000s. That's about it.
• 13:57
  That's all I know. No, it's a newer body style than
• 13:59
  I had. He had.
• 14:00
  Like the square headlights. The one after the fox bodies.
• 14:02
  Yeah, it was like 9495 to 90. Eight.
• 14:05
  That's definitely the S It's in the name SN95 baby I.
• 14:08
  Don't know the. Name.
• 14:09
  It doesn't go by the year, though, That's just a.
• 14:11
  I don't. I have no idea.
• 14:12
  I know. I know the look that you're
• 14:14
  talking. I got one.
• 14:14
  I got one outside of my house, actually.
• 14:16
  Yeah, it was like, actually. Like for me, being like 17, I
• 14:19
  bought off my dad 17 years old. That thing just saw nothing but
• 14:23
  hell, nothing but pure hell. Me and my friends St. raced on
• 14:28
  every Rd. single lane roads, two lane roads, highways.
• 14:30
  We. Is it AV eight?
• 14:31
  Yeah, it was AV 8, so not the V6.
• 14:33
  GT baby. That's the one.
• 14:35
  That's the one in my street. My buddy left it there.
• 14:38
  Yeah, if you didn't have AGT Mustang.
• 14:41
  If it was a six cylinder, I wouldn't have bought it.
• 14:43
  It sounds the V8, the V8 sounds. Good.
• 14:46
  They were sick. It sounds sick.
• 14:48
  My buddy's one. I'm telling you, not a great
• 14:49
  example it is. I think those engines sound way
• 14:53
  better better than L, S, S. It sounds good as well.
• 14:55
  I feel like the Mustangs always sound better.
• 14:57
  If you're looking for a Mustang, let me know.
• 14:59
  I have one. Now, what's the what?
• 15:01
  What are the engines like in that?
• 15:02
  Do you know anything about them? Like do they have?
• 15:03
  And the newer ones or the? One I I guess that one first.
• 15:05
  So that was a 4.6 GT motor. Is it a?
• 15:09
  Is it like how many cams are in it?
• 15:11
  Overhead Cam Single Overhead Cam I think.
• 15:13
  OK, I'm pretty sure it was a single.
• 15:15
  I think there were single overhead cams.
• 15:16
  I'm not 100% sure or not though, but.
• 15:18
  They're not a five O. No, there were four point sixes.
• 15:21
  Did did one come with A5? Older came five O.
• 15:25
  Then they went to the four point.
• 15:26
  Six. Hell yeah.
• 15:26
  But then I. Went back to the five O again.
• 15:28
  Yeah. Oh, it went back OK Fuck, OK.
• 15:31
  I didn't know that they went back and forth.
• 15:32
  Yeah, weird. I mean, they just probably
• 15:35
  realized like, oh, this motor is not that good.
• 15:37
  Like shit, we messed up. We beat the hell out of the
• 15:41
  that's. What I was about to say.
• 15:42
  They didn't really make that much power.
• 15:44
  I mean to think Fire made like 320 horsepower, 350 foot pounds
• 15:47
  of torque, but wouldn't. You say that that's a perfect
• 15:49
  first car, like you could diddle around with it just a little
• 15:52
  bit. You.
• 15:52
  Learn a lot in it because it's like I drove it in the snow, in
• 15:55
  the rain, whatever. I said like that was that was my
• 15:58
  car. That thing would see the.
• 15:59
  Catch up in the snow, dude. I would just fucking wait.
• 16:02
  That was like AZ. That was like AZ.
• 16:04
  That was ZI. Don't know how to do it I I
• 16:06
  haven't. You got to practice.
• 16:08
  Try it. Try.
• 16:10
  No, no, no. I got.
• 16:11
  I got to work. It's not AV 6.
• 16:12
  You you keep sounding like AV6. Yeah, man, I like.
• 16:14
  A vacuum cleaner. Fuck, I got AV8AV8 myself.
• 16:18
  Carl, if someone gave you a a newer Mustang and they're like
• 16:22
  do whatever you want with this, you think you would turn it to a
• 16:24
  drift car? What?
• 16:25
  Like Scott's like Scott Hastings one.
• 16:28
  Like a new, new one. He's got a floor.
• 16:30
  Let's say like the not the current generation, but maybe
• 16:32
  the one right before it. What would I do to that S5 50s?
• 16:35
  'Cause I I like the, I think I like the current one.
• 16:38
  So there's five 50s and there's four 50s and there's six 50s.
• 16:41
  OK, let's do it. Let's do it This one.
• 16:43
  Let's do it this way. Which one did Vaughn get in like
• 16:46
  the first? The very first.
• 16:47
  The first, I'm sponsored by Ford Type.
• 16:49
  That was like a 2005 to 2012 body stuff.
• 16:54
  Not that one. So the one after that.
• 16:56
  Yeah, so, like, yeah, a. Little more round, a little more
• 16:58
  sleek. Trimmed up.
• 17:00
  You know why? Because that car, like, thinking
• 17:03
  back on it, I'm like, oh, that's cool, Because that was like the
• 17:06
  first Mustang that we saw drifting, right?
• 17:08
  It's cool in the outs. Like, you could probably make
• 17:10
  the outside cool, maybe, But dude, the inside was so fucking
• 17:13
  bad. Well, now that you got those.
• 17:14
  Into your body was. So bad.
• 17:16
  Yeah. I mean, it's a it's an American
• 17:18
  car. Like you can only get the
• 17:20
  inside, so. Cool, but the newer ones are
• 17:21
  fucking nice. The newer ones are super nice,
• 17:23
  but you're also spending like back then, those cars would be
• 17:25
  like 25 grand. Now they're like 4550.
• 17:28
  True. So like, yeah, it's nicer, but
• 17:30
  it's also 20,000 more dollars for a chassis that has AV8,
• 17:33
  which is cool. Yeah, those coyote motors are
• 17:35
  bad ass. They make power like you put a
• 17:37
  turbo with supercharger on that thing.
• 17:38
  Dude, 6700 watts power no problem.
• 17:40
  Stop. I want NA just goes.
• 17:42
  Should I just take the motor out of the one that's by my house?
• 17:45
  Yeah, but you said you have a older one, right?
• 17:48
  Like a 90s it's. A four point.
• 17:49
  Six. Fuck getting the five O.
• 17:53
  Dude, I would call. It IS the five O all the time.
• 17:56
  Would they give you the car? It's my buddies, dude.
• 17:59
  He just had to put it there because his driveway was getting
• 18:01
  worked on. Tell him it's.
• 18:02
  Time to drift that thing, Yeah. He's not a.
• 18:04
  Guys drift those all the time. He's not a drifting guy.
• 18:07
  Anybody can be a drifting. He's a build up, good looking
• 18:09
  patio and basement kind of guy, so he.
• 18:11
  Has money. Now he's like he's he's, he's
• 18:15
  got his life in order. That's.
• 18:16
  Probably what I want to say. Drifting will ruin him.
• 18:19
  He can't do that. He'll be selling the two by
• 18:20
  fours to A4 die. So, so how'd you get into
• 18:25
  drifting with with the Mustang then?
• 18:27
  Where was the transition at? Was that after that?
• 18:29
  After the Mustang, so the I was 17 years old and I'll never
• 18:33
  forget I was racing a Supra on Route 70 like an older body
• 18:36
  style. One I was about to.
• 18:37
  Yeah, mke three. I think they are.
• 18:39
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like the flat?
• 18:40
  Yeah, misshifted the shit out of this thing.
• 18:43
  Oh. Man money shift.
• 18:44
  Hard misshift. Oh yeah.
• 18:46
  Fucking oh was not happy at all. Developed like a little tick in
• 18:50
  the engine and I was like, oh, this thing's not going to last.
• 18:52
  It's much longer. Put some Lucas in it.
• 18:54
  Sold the car and then I took that money and I bought a 97
• 19:00
  Eagle Talon off of my friend Rob.
• 19:02
  Now we're. Talking whoa, whoa, curveball.
• 19:06
  Curveball, DSM guy. Ricky.
• 19:07
  No, no, I did not know this. Act That's.
• 19:11
  Sad dude. Yeah.
• 19:12
  So it's it was a 97 eagle Talon which. 1TD S.
• 19:16
  ITSI all-wheel drive. Oh, the girl.
• 19:19
  Had a built built trans and transfer case in it.
• 19:21
  It had a built motor, 20G turbo. Oh yeah, 480 wheel horsepower.
• 19:25
  I'm 17 years old with an all-wheel drive car that now you
• 19:29
  can run 480 wheel horsepower. You got it that soon you like,
• 19:33
  got out of the thing, right? Away.
• 19:34
  I don't have the Mustang for a year.
• 19:36
  Dude, that is the best street racing.
• 19:38
  Oh, car. The thing was.
• 19:39
  Just you watched a documentary. Animalistic and I had like he
• 19:42
  did have. That right.
• 19:44
  Sorry. The the the Eagle talent in that
• 19:45
  documentary on MTV. What?
• 19:47
  Documentary. There's an Eagle talent.
• 19:49
  But he had a Honda over, didn't he?
• 19:51
  There was one where there was a the.
• 19:52
  True life. I'm a street.
• 19:53
  Yeah, there was one guy with a There was one guy with a Talon
• 19:56
  and he was getting a ticket. Dude, I was.
• 19:58
  That was my life. That was, I didn't.
• 20:00
  Own the car But my friends like that was the car like and we
• 20:03
  were we. That's the first car wrenched on
• 20:04
  was a 4G63 like Eclipse I. Always just know him as like
• 20:08
  those. That's the street rage.
• 20:09
  They are bad ass. How how many days were you able
• 20:14
  to drive this thing? The Talon Yeah, it did break a
• 20:17
  bunch, but like I said that. So my friend Rob, that.
• 20:20
  So have you guys ever heard of dog box tuning for Evos?
• 20:24
  They're in Howell. They used to do like the crazy
• 20:26
  drag cars. He had the world record for a
• 20:27
  couple years. He had the Airshift Evo drag
• 20:30
  car. His name was Alex.
• 20:32
  Thing was an animal. He helped.
• 20:34
  He guided my friend Rob through building this car.
• 20:36
  But Rob did it himself. Some things were a little janky.
• 20:39
  Not going to lie, that's how it goes.
• 20:40
  We were young. We were.
• 20:42
  Young, he's only a little older than me, so like you know, but
• 20:45
  other like it was a great car. I blew a turbo up a couple
• 20:49
  times, OK. What kind of turbos were you
• 20:50
  running? On there that was a 20G on the.
• 20:53
  Car Frankie's ears just got. So that's the turbo you run.
• 20:56
  It's right there, there's a 20G back.
• 20:57
  There. Oh yeah.
• 20:58
  Yeah, that's the turbo that you put.
• 21:00
  On there that. Shit probably sounded so.
• 21:02
  It was ran on 93 meth injected, tuned on DSM link.
• 21:06
  Old school shit. Meth injection 2 is pretty old.
• 21:08
  Meth injection is pretty. I guess I'm old.
• 21:11
  I was here. That's.
• 21:12
  Pretty fancy Frank Frankie's into a different kind of meth A.
• 21:14
  Snow Performance Meth. Cases from back then, I feel you
• 21:16
  got pretty fancy. I mean, even now, people still
• 21:19
  run all time. It works fantastic.
• 21:21
  It is. We used to put on Subarus of
• 21:22
  precision all the time for guys that didn't want to run ethanol.
• 21:26
  Yeah, yeah. A plenty of mine.
• 21:27
  Or, well, Malcolm Buddy ran meth in his car and he would have to
• 21:33
  go get these jugs just to drive the fucking car.
• 21:36
  Well, I mean, it depends on how the tune is for.
• 21:38
  It is. Is there tunes where you can not
• 21:41
  do that so or you can just be like I'm OK but when I don't put
• 21:44
  the meth in I can drive. It yeah, But listen to me.
• 21:47
  I was 17 years old. If that thing wasn't full tilt,
• 21:49
  I didn't want. It no, no, no.
• 21:51
  I'm asking because I just need to know because my.
• 21:53
  Newer cars, yeah, The computers will like adjust for right They
• 21:56
  would back then. I don't think they would.
• 21:57
  Have I knew that they could change?
• 21:58
  Yeah, I feel like back then. Like if I didn't have that.
• 22:01
  Yeah, I feel like the snow performed.
• 22:03
  I think that something happens where like a spot by a certain
• 22:06
  amount of throttle, right it starts.
• 22:07
  Spraying mine was by boost, so at 15 lbs of boost it would hit.
• 22:11
  OK. That sounds fucking.
• 22:12
  Yeah, you probably just couldn't boost if you. 15 lbs Hit a meth.
• 22:16
  Yeah, and it dude. I remember driving that thing
• 22:18
  and like, it's like Evos they have, they don't have torque
• 22:20
  down low. So you'd just be flooring that
• 22:23
  thing and things rattling because it's like shit.
• 22:24
  And then all of a sudden it'd be like the boost would start
• 22:27
  creeping in. It'd be like 5-10, twelve, 1530.
• 22:31
  It just slaps me right up there. Yeah, like when the first time I
• 22:35
  drove that car and I I floored it, I was like, holy shit, I.
• 22:40
  Need to buy the clips, man. I follow this guy.
• 22:44
  His name is Rob Fig. I think he's in Pennsylvania.
• 22:46
  He buys and sells him, but he builds him, restores him and
• 22:48
  everything and he sells him for cheap, cheap and I'm like, dude,
• 22:52
  if I ever like once FD drifting is done, I'm getting 1 streetcar
• 22:56
  100. Percent yeah, that's what I want
• 22:57
  to do. Build when they.
• 22:58
  Shift It makes us sick. The sickest evos and DSM they
• 23:01
  have. You need to have the gritty Type
• 23:03
  S right? Type S go off valve I think.
• 23:05
  So that was from Fast and Furious.
• 23:07
  It needs to. Sound like I ran your original
• 23:08
  tile on mine when they were first coming out.
• 23:10
  Just the Yeah, yeah. Pretty sick, yeah.
• 23:15
  Had the HKS carbon tie exhaust on or whatever.
• 23:17
  It was back in the four with the. 4 Bolt flange Oh man, that.
• 23:20
  Thing Carbon TI. Yeah, yeah.
• 23:22
  How are you finding out about where to get the parts from?
• 23:25
  You're just getting guidance from this one person, so I got
• 23:27
  the. Car.
• 23:28
  Basically. Right at this Bill, as it was.
• 23:30
  Oh, OK. And like a lot of my friends
• 23:31
  were in this and I was friends with a lot of older guys that
• 23:33
  were in the cars, like my friend Scott, he had a bunch of
• 23:35
  skyline. So like, I kind of took his
• 23:38
  lead, like following him in these cars.
• 23:40
  Like he had Evos at the time. He did badass Evos.
• 23:42
  Like when AMS came out with their first big kit, he had it
• 23:45
  on his car. So like, I would follow him and
• 23:48
  like, you know, some stuff was right, some stuff wasn't, you
• 23:50
  know, It is what it is, I think. I saw his skyline at a car event
• 23:55
  in like South Jersey when I was like it had to be 2012.
• 23:58
  Was it down at Stockton College for the street wars thing?
• 24:02
  Street. Wars.
• 24:02
  Yeah, the silver one, yeah. That guy was.
• 24:05
  I have. Photos of that in a phone
• 24:07
  somewhere, That car. Was so sick for its time too.
• 24:09
  That was like yeah 2012 or 34 built R34 GTR silver cruising
• 24:14
  around the streets they made like 500 wheel.
• 24:16
  I was like, what the fuck? Someone owns this.
• 24:18
  Yeah, I went with him to drop that car off at IV Tuning to get
• 24:21
  tuned because Scotty and Ivy were super close.
• 24:23
  So they would get he would get tuned there and I remember we
• 24:25
  hopped into 34, drove it to Nissan.
• 24:28
  This was in 2009 or 10 or whatever.
• 24:31
  He wanted to buy a new one, R35 GTR, so we drove it there and
• 24:35
  Scotty is asking the sales people like what What Car is
• 24:37
  that? Like the R34?
• 24:38
  And they're like we haven't we we have no idea.
• 24:40
  I don't know what that thing is. They had no idea what it was.
• 24:43
  Some of these on dealers you go, yeah, that that's when you have
• 24:45
  to drive back around to the shop and then everyone.
• 24:47
  Freaks out. All the techs were walking out
• 24:49
  like side eye in it. They're like, what the heck is
• 24:51
  going on here? They probably trying to buy it
• 24:53
  for the show. Up drove in and and been like
• 24:54
  how much I'm going to trade this.
• 24:56
  Trade this and they'll be like 3 grand.
• 24:57
  Yeah, that's a maximum, right? Yeah, give you 500 bucks.
• 25:01
  That's crazy, man. Yeah, I remember seeing that
• 25:02
  car. St.
• 25:03
  Wars. Yeah, that was.
• 25:04
  That was sick back in the day, everyone.
• 25:06
  Dude, that car show was huge. Yep, Huge St.
• 25:09
  Wars was the. Car was the car.
• 25:10
  An R34 GTR. It wasn't a GT.
• 25:14
  Blue car right there. No, no, it was not a GT.
• 25:16
  It was a GTR with a built motor in it.
• 25:19
  Fuck, that's sick, yeah. Do you know who Scotty Creamer
• 25:21
  is? I was going to bring it up
• 25:23
  because I used to watch his videos all the time and I think
• 25:25
  I saw Ricky in there. Yep.
• 25:26
  Yeah, I don't actually know who he is, but I know of.
• 25:28
  Him. I love this videos man.
• 25:30
  There was. That was some of the funnest
• 25:32
  times in my life were filming those.
• 25:33
  Videos. What a great dude, man.
• 25:35
  Oh man, it was so much fun. Was it like it was BMX?
• 25:38
  Stuff. Yeah, it was all BMX up, some
• 25:39
  car stuff and stuff like that, OK?
• 25:41
  I was not a very avid. I watched it literally just
• 25:44
  because I like watching it because of Scotty.
• 25:46
  Yeah, like I watched it for mad long.
• 25:48
  Damn. I'm going to go check on the
• 25:49
  channel. And then and then he had an
• 25:51
  accident. He had an accident.
• 25:52
  Yeah, he got paralyzed. Yeah, A.
• 25:54
  BMX, but he's riding a bike though he.
• 25:55
  Is riding a bike he he literally defeated the odds man.
• 25:58
  He is. What that dude like, he's like
• 26:01
  superhuman, Like if he puts his mind to something, like, that's
• 26:04
  it. Like, I remember when he'd be
• 26:05
  training for the X Games, like I'd be I used to work at his
• 26:07
  skate park. So like, we would stay late,
• 26:09
  ride together. He'd be training for X Games.
• 26:11
  And he would be like asking like, how does this look when I
• 26:12
  do it like this, whatever. We'd be talking phone pit
• 26:14
  sessions, the whole 9 and he'd be like, I want to try this real
• 26:16
  quick. I've never tried it before.
• 26:18
  First try. Boom.
• 26:19
  Done Doesn't. Want such a calculated?
• 26:21
  Dude does it one more time in the phone pit.
• 26:23
  He's like, all right, we're going to the going to the box,
• 26:24
  Trump going to send it off to the box.
• 26:25
  And I'm like, dude, what? Like you haven't even.
• 26:28
  Again, I don't know anything about bikes, but when I would
• 26:31
  watch him like ride into videos, it's like a completely different
• 26:36
  level of what other people were. Doing and he was like the first
• 26:39
  rider that like really manhandled a bike to do what he
• 26:43
  wanted to do. Like he had the flow and he had
• 26:45
  the style, but if he wanted to just get sick out of nowhere, it
• 26:49
  wasn't an issue at all. Like he could boost the quarter
• 26:52
  pipe to the moon and then he can come back and flare with it.
• 26:54
  Less than a foot over the coping just.
• 26:57
  Because he wanted was that the that's the Scotty that had the
• 27:02
  34 that we're talking about. He had a 34 because in the
• 27:04
  videos he had a 32. I don't remember that.
• 27:06
  I was like, I remember these. In the cars.
• 27:08
  So this was before the videos he probably had.
• 27:12
  I'm thinking at least 15 evos he probably had at one time he had
• 27:16
  a 32A33A34 and I think he just got the 35.
• 27:20
  I think he had it all at the same time I.
• 27:21
  Think he had a white 35? Yeah, he did have white.
• 27:24
  That was the 1st. One he got.
• 27:25
  If you know who this is, this is.
• 27:26
  Blowing my mind because again, like I I just saw that that's I
• 27:31
  I'm putting like two and two together right now because I'm
• 27:33
  like, I'm pretty sure on his videos he had a skyline, Yeah.
• 27:36
  Like even before the videos came out, like he was, he was always
• 27:38
  in the cars. I was like a thing.
• 27:39
  Yeah, that's sick. You wanna know a funny story?
• 27:41
  Actually, when when I was in middle school, I think it was.
• 27:45
  I grew up in Howell and he his, his bike shop was like on Route
• 27:49
  9 somewhere down the road, like a few miles away.
• 27:51
  I think he lived nearby. Did he have?
• 27:53
  A bike shop? How old was he at this time?
• 27:55
  He was. Young, I mean, he won X Games.
• 27:57
  I think it's 16 or 17. Holy shit.
• 27:59
  I was at the local skate park in my town.
• 28:02
  It was called. It's like a Parkside that was a
• 28:05
  development Parkside. Is that a purple park?
• 28:07
  And then he pulls up in his white 35, gets out with his
• 28:11
  friends, takes his bike off the roof and then just comes in,
• 28:14
  does a flare right in like I'm standing on the quarter pipe.
• 28:17
  He just does a flare right in front of my face and then he
• 28:20
  just rides away and just goes back in the car and drives away
• 28:22
  and. That's when he quit.
• 28:23
  He was just like, I was like, OK, that's when you.
• 28:26
  And I was like. Who was that?
• 28:27
  They're like, that's Scotty Creamer.
• 28:29
  I was like, oh shit. Yeah.
• 28:30
  Oh shit, dude. He was like, literally the best
• 28:33
  in the world. It was in insane how good he.
• 28:36
  Was dude. It sounds like he was the first
• 28:37
  Adam LZ with the videos and everything.
• 28:39
  So actually LZ did videos before Scotty.
• 28:42
  He actually was like super anti social media and the YouTube
• 28:46
  sucked and he hated it. He just didn't want to add more
• 28:49
  stuff onto his plate with everything that he was doing,
• 28:51
  like the bike shop, the skate park, training, traveling, do
• 28:54
  tour, like everything that was going on.
• 28:56
  If he started earlier, his old house in Jackson when he bought,
• 29:02
  like the bigger house that he had, and somewhere over like
• 29:05
  Bridgewater near Jackson Liberty High School, like we would go
• 29:07
  there, there was a trampoline ahead, tramp bike.
• 29:09
  He had a whole backyard set up at one point in time.
• 29:11
  We would ride on. He had these little kickers.
• 29:13
  We'd ride on all the time. The basement was a paintball
• 29:15
  arena. At one point in time we took the
• 29:17
  hand rails down on like the there was a catwalk that led to
• 29:20
  his room. Was a 20 foot fire pole in there
• 29:23
  that went from his room to the living room.
• 29:24
  What the fuck dude? It was like.
• 29:26
  What happens when you win the win the X?
• 29:28
  Game and he just like he just liked having a good time and he
• 29:30
  liked his friends having a good time with him at the same time.
• 29:32
  So like it was just like a we go to the house, hang out.
• 29:35
  Like I remember when he broke his foot, he was out for like a
• 29:37
  while. He had like a couple surgeries,
• 29:39
  got messed up. He got like super into Call of
• 29:41
  Duty. I think he got into like the top
• 29:42
  5% of Call of Duty. He's just one of those people.
• 29:45
  He's just. Good tries really hard at.
• 29:48
  Everything. He did.
• 29:48
  Everything and anything, yeah. Dude, oh God, man.
• 29:51
  Like, yeah, I mean, I just, I'm just really just remembering how
• 29:55
  often I used to watch that Channel and now I'm like, Oh my
• 29:57
  God, I used to watch it a lot. Yeah, well.
• 30:00
  We did video. That we were going hard.
• 30:03
  I know seven days a week. There's a video I know where he
• 30:06
  gapped a mini ramp from 1/4, like over here and over the mini
• 30:14
  ripped it and then he tail whipped it.
• 30:16
  Yeah, yeah. So, like, to me, that's.
• 30:19
  Fucking. Nuts.
• 30:20
  Yeah. You know the big mini ramp.
• 30:22
  I've ridden that park with them before.
• 30:23
  Yeah, yeah. Huge.
• 30:24
  That's crazy to me, dude. Yeah.
• 30:27
  What's he doing now? Do you know?
• 30:28
  Is he doing it? He's down in Florida.
• 30:29
  He's doing better and stuff like that.
• 30:31
  Is he doing announcing? He still does announcing and
• 30:34
  stuff like that. He still has the channel.
• 30:35
  He's got a little bit of a new crew of like Florida kids that
• 30:38
  are down there with him and stuff like that.
• 30:39
  Because, you know, we got older and like we we got good jobs.
• 30:43
  Like, yeah, it is what it is like, you know, like me, Vinny,
• 30:45
  Dom, Matt, like all of us, just like we're all super good
• 30:48
  friends though. Like Scotty called me a couple
• 30:50
  weeks ago, he bought another R34 and he was like, he's.
• 30:53
  Just talking to like cars and stuff.
• 30:54
  Yeah, so I don't know if you guys know this R34 GTT, So it's
• 30:59
  an RB25 turbo automatic transmission.
• 31:02
  So he can drive it. So he can drive it.
• 31:03
  Oh, that's cool. Yeah.
• 31:05
  So he was just like there was an Instagram page and they posted
• 31:08
  the car on there and Scott used to scrolling through.
• 31:10
  So I was an automatic, called them, went there, bought the
• 31:12
  car. He almost had an Evo 7 he was
• 31:15
  trying to import that was an automatic.
• 31:18
  That he did. He did get back on a bike,
• 31:19
  right? Yeah.
• 31:20
  Oh yeah, That's. Crazy.
• 31:21
  And he rides it around like rides on ramps.
• 31:24
  Yeah, I saw that and I was like, OK, this guy can pretty much
• 31:28
  accomplish. Yeah, nothing can.
• 31:29
  Really. Stop him.
• 31:29
  Yeah. Anything you want.
• 31:30
  Actually, yeah, that's insane man.
• 31:32
  You got to, you got to respect the at work surprise.
• 31:34
  He didn't get into drifting. So he wasn't a drifting my S13 I
• 31:39
  bought from him. Oh wow.
• 31:40
  Wait wait wait, wait. What?
• 31:42
  Oh yeah. So the talent I bought was his
• 31:44
  cousins. What the?
• 31:45
  Fuck yeah. I bought his cousin's talent and
• 31:48
  then eventually the motor blew up, sold part of the car out.
• 31:53
  He took the money from the part out.
• 31:54
  Scotty had an S13 with a S13 Sr. in it that he would just drive
• 31:58
  around. We'd he'd like hit parking lots
• 32:00
  with it here and there or whatever.
• 32:01
  He was like a little donut assassin in parking lots.
• 32:03
  He did one or two close. Events with it.
• 32:05
  Then he started training really hard again for I'm not sure if
• 32:07
  it was due to our X Games and wanted to sell the car and I was
• 32:10
  like I'll buy it so and it was like the cleanest S13 ever.
• 32:15
  And this is the one. Destroyed that dying fuck?
• 32:17
  I was about to ask. It was so freaking clean.
• 32:20
  That's not the. Is that the one?
• 32:22
  That's the white car. Yeah.
• 32:23
  Wait. What happened to the car that?
• 32:25
  No, because I remember. Ricky's car ran over.
• 32:27
  Yeah. I remember it's just I remember
• 32:29
  it being a white car that was has been spray painted a few
• 32:33
  times. Yeah, I so I totaled that thing
• 32:35
  really bad at I think the first ever E Town Gambler.
• 32:39
  So the track was made and it was like some pretty heavy drop offs
• 32:41
  going around Turn 2 and they had those plastic barriers all
• 32:44
  around the outside. They were like yellow and blue
• 32:46
  or whatever. I dipped the tire and and like
• 32:48
  my front wheels came off the ground.
• 32:50
  The car rotated, landed on the barriers so I had no brakes for
• 32:53
  steering, and just head onto the concrete wall at like, I don't
• 32:56
  know, 40 oh. My God.
• 32:59
  Well, I'm glad you're here, Ricky.
• 33:01
  We so that was in practice. We fixed the car, went out, won
• 33:06
  a battle and then lost in the top 16 and the car was clapped,
• 33:11
  clapped. There was a video somewhere.
• 33:13
  We have 3 Ford Super Duty trucks pulling the thing, The frame
• 33:17
  rails in the pits, I welded like some random metal and stuff on
• 33:19
  it. Drift HQ was there.
• 33:20
  We use their welder and just like it was a mess, man, it was
• 33:24
  a mess. But everyone was like throwing
• 33:25
  parts at me, like the the naps were there.
• 33:27
  Chris Nap, Mike Nap and they have their their drift garage
• 33:30
  and they were like whatever you need, whatever you need, no
• 33:31
  problem. Whatever you need to take, just
• 33:33
  take it. We'll figure it out later.
• 33:34
  So we're just putting a fresh rat in it with zip tie and fans
• 33:36
  to it and stuff like that. Because there's a Jay-Z like
• 33:38
  think it's hot, went out there, made like 4 laps.
• 33:41
  And then we I remember I put it on the lift.
• 33:43
  I'm looking at it after and I'm like I should not have driven
• 33:46
  this car like the the nut service for the trans mount
• 33:49
  ripped out of the chassis. So how'd you get the How'd you
• 33:51
  How'd you keep the trans up? It it didn't.
• 33:54
  It was just bouncing solid mounts.
• 33:56
  It was just held on by the motor and the cylinder head was
• 33:58
  resting on the firewall. What the?
• 34:02
  Fuck. That was that was the the Figure
• 34:04
  8. Yeah.
• 34:05
  How do you feel about that track?
• 34:07
  I love it. You've driven.
• 34:09
  It a lot. I've driven it a lot.
• 34:10
  I was there with a very I was there before when I was there,
• 34:13
  when Chris and Mike were laying it out.
• 34:14
  They were asking me questions of what I thought I was there the
• 34:16
  very first Test day. I've done every FD round that's
• 34:19
  been there. I love that track.
• 34:21
  It's an extremely aggressive track and when you drive it the
• 34:24
  way they want you to drive it, it is very sketchy with the
• 34:27
  walls. That's what I that's there's no.
• 34:29
  Runoff, there's no runoff anywhere, but like as long as
• 34:32
  you but people are afraid of it. But if you want to go there and
• 34:34
  just drive it, the track is so wide you can be 5 foot, 10 foot
• 34:38
  off every wall and you're you're going to be mid track.
• 34:41
  Yeah. It's so wide.
• 34:43
  I'm scared of that track. No, you'll be good.
• 34:45
  It's fine. You'll be good.
• 34:46
  I think it would be. We would be.
• 34:48
  Fine. It is such a fun track and the
• 34:49
  more aggressive you get, like the better the track gets for
• 34:52
  you. If you drive that track like
• 34:54
  like a bitch, it's not fun at all.
• 34:56
  Like you need to just be hammered down the whole entire
• 34:58
  time. Yeah, but I do like that track a
• 35:00
  lot. I love the road course, don't
• 35:02
  get me wrong, but the Figure 8 track for like aggressive tandem
• 35:05
  driving for me, like, really does it.
• 35:07
  The car track is fun too for slow tandem.
• 35:10
  Car track's badass, yeah. It's fun.
• 35:11
  You could just stack. Up for me it's like, I mean I'll
• 35:14
  I'll drive it but like I'm not driving it more than once.
• 35:17
  The car track no the the figure 80.
• 35:19
  The Figure 8 because like I just it.
• 35:22
  That's Cap. You haven't had a car in 20
• 35:23
  years. You're going to fucking want to
• 35:25
  drive it. I would.
• 35:25
  I wouldn't because I'd be like, I know what's going to happen
• 35:28
  you. Don't want to write it off?
• 35:29
  Exactly. I know what's going to happen.
• 35:31
  I'm going to get, I'm going to try to get closer and closer and
• 35:33
  then I'm going to fuck up. And then the car's fucked.
• 35:36
  It's not worth it at all. I would not trust my skill ever,
• 35:41
  first of all, ever. So.
• 35:43
  You got no confidence in yourself.
• 35:45
  To not crash on that track if I was to just drive it over and
• 35:48
  over. No, really, I will crash that
• 35:51
  car on that. So you have confidence in that?
• 35:53
  I will, yeah. Because I know.
• 35:55
  I know. I'm going to keep pushing it.
• 35:57
  Yeah, I'm sure I'll get some really sick.
• 35:58
  Laps. Well, you find the point of
• 36:00
  where you're like, yeah, this is it.
• 36:02
  But you know, you know it takes. One little.
• 36:04
  Thing one. Mistake and then it's.
• 36:07
  Done. There's no write off.
• 36:09
  It's not. It's not forgivable.
• 36:10
  It's write off. Yeah, write the car off.
• 36:11
  You're done. So to me, not worth it.
• 36:15
  Well. But for comp driving, it's
• 36:18
  pretty wise. That's what I was.
• 36:19
  About to say that track is boring and easy from a driver's
• 36:22
  standpoint to drive that track maybe.
• 36:24
  If you're rich. And follow follow a car the way
• 36:27
  you need to in that track. The commitment level is almost
• 36:31
  more than most other FTT. Yeah, I've seen it all the time.
• 36:33
  Whereas they'll be someone will be following and then the guy
• 36:36
  just fucked up like the lead guy fucked up or something and he
• 36:38
  set the guy up behind him for. Disaster.
• 36:41
  Absolute failure. Yeah, I almost did that.
• 36:43
  And the last gambler did there. I was following a Canadian going
• 36:45
  into Turn 2 and he like, kind of did like a weird thing and I
• 36:48
  kind of got in behind him a little bit.
• 36:50
  But I'm in his smoke and I'm like, the wall is is there, it's
• 36:53
  somewhere there. And I would try.
• 36:55
  Not to think about like. Luckily for me, like the back of
• 36:58
  my car has a big crush zone because I was in it for sure.
• 37:03
  So what kind of crush zone are we talking about?
• 37:04
  Like I remember. Do you remember when I want to
• 37:08
  say it was fuck? I can't think of his name right
• 37:11
  now, but I remember someone put like a fucking dampener system
• 37:13
  on his fucking Chelsey. Zanova did it.
• 37:15
  Chelsey Zanova put BC coilovers on it on his E30.
• 37:18
  Six. That shit was crazy.
• 37:20
  And he's hanging off the wall and he broke in a spring when
• 37:22
  flying across the track and then they were like, yeah.
• 37:25
  I mean no more of that. Yeah, that.
• 37:28
  I mean that's. How all the?
• 37:28
  Rules are made, though, you know.
• 37:30
  Exactly, yeah. Was that what, what, what tip?
• 37:34
  What pushed you over into the COM competition aspect of
• 37:37
  driving now because you're a you are a pro spec driver?
• 37:41
  Technically I'm a licensed pro spec driver.
• 37:43
  I did not drive last year. I took a year off and I'm on the
• 37:46
  entry list to go back in again for this year.
• 37:50
  But I actually never wanted to drive comp and like I never I
• 37:53
  did the demos of Perez like this is sick.
• 37:54
  Why would I drive? I'm going to do this ever.
• 37:56
  So actually one week after Perez ran me over at Pro Bro down Rich
• 38:01
  Whiteman blew his motor up and he had a spot at US drift the
• 38:03
  weekend after. So he called me and he's like,
• 38:05
  do you want to drive it Like I think you'll do good.
• 38:07
  I'm like, dude, no way. Like I I don't have any safety
• 38:09
  gear that's like in date. My car will not pass tech like
• 38:13
  this is not he's like, don't worry about it.
• 38:14
  We'll like whatever. He's like, I have everything you
• 38:16
  need. I have a suit.
• 38:17
  I got a helmet and I have your gloves like shoes socks.
• 38:20
  I have it all for you. And I'm like, rich, you're 7
• 38:23
  feet tall. I was about to.
• 38:25
  I wasn't. Going to literally.
• 38:26
  You're a pencil. I also wasn't going to say.
• 38:29
  I'm like, that suit is not he's like just try.
• 38:31
  He's like it's a big suit pot. I was like, all right, so I
• 38:33
  literally like fixed the car kind of because it just got ran
• 38:36
  over. Thing looked like hell I.
• 38:38
  Trailer. Oh yeah, I trailer from my house
• 38:42
  to Rich Whiteman's house to get all the safety gear on the way
• 38:45
  to Virginia Summit Point. Worked you put it.
• 38:49
  Oh no. Oh, you haven't tried it.
• 38:51
  Rich never tried to suit on either.
• 38:54
  He just bought it. There is not a chance in hell
• 38:57
  this would have fit him because from like nutsack area to
• 39:02
  shoulders I could not put it on And he's taller than me, so like
• 39:06
  there was no way he was going to fit.
• 39:07
  So I would like sit in the car and like kind of have the thing
• 39:10
  like up and I just wore a black T-shirt and I'd like stick my
• 39:12
  arms and like the sleeves and like drive the car, but like it
• 39:15
  did not, it was not good. You must have been fucking
• 39:17
  freaking out for that event. It just I got never expected to
• 39:20
  be there. So I go there, I qualify like 12
• 39:23
  or something like that, and then I I won the whole event.
• 39:25
  Holy shit. Yeah, never drove that track
• 39:28
  before. So actually I drove there once,
• 39:30
  regular track, but we drove a reverse there.
• 39:33
  Never planned on doing good. I was like, oh, Rich gave me the
• 39:35
  spot. I have tires like it'll be fun.
• 39:37
  Whatever went there won the event.
• 39:39
  Which? Which part of summit was it?
• 39:41
  Do you remember? It was Bridge Course Reverse.
• 39:44
  Oh, nice. Yeah.
• 39:45
  So that big sweeper was turn one.
• 39:47
  They gave us like an eighth mile run up to this thing.
• 39:51
  And like in practice, there's ZS going off track.
• 39:53
  Kid broke his leg, like just drove straight off, 'cause
• 39:55
  that's not the way the track was supposed to be driven.
• 39:57
  Like design? Was Justin there?
• 40:01
  Baby. What year was it 2017?
• 40:03
  That's the trophy right there, I.
• 40:05
  Think it was. I mean it could be.
• 40:07
  No, but he that's 2016. I think it says on there.
• 40:11
  Yeah, it says 2016. OK.
• 40:13
  Yeah. So it's the year.
• 40:13
  'Cause I remember that track layout.
• 40:15
  Track was sick. Yeah, it was a bad.
• 40:17
  Ass I want to drive that track so badly.
• 40:19
  That track. Was sick.
• 40:20
  He's trying to drive it for DoD, but the car and the money?
• 40:23
  So so you win this event. Won the event and I was like,
• 40:26
  oh, and it's a series. So I'm like, oh, now I have to
• 40:28
  go to the next one. Oh shit.
• 40:30
  Show up to the next one. It wasn't a full field, so they
• 40:33
  had a top 16 instead of a top 32 qualified 17th.
• 40:36
  OK, is that bad? That's out of the didn't
• 40:38
  qualify. Oh shit.
• 40:40
  I was sitting there and. Like, oh, I thought that was a
• 40:42
  joke. I was like.
• 40:43
  Oh yeah, It didn't qualify for the second round.
• 40:44
  One first round, didn't even qualify for the second round.
• 40:47
  I was like, I'm done. I'm not doing this shit anymore
• 40:48
  that. Would be what I did.
• 40:49
  Because I was like, there's cars that made it that shouldn't have
• 40:51
  made. Like they weren't even really
• 40:52
  drifting the bank. It was Shenandoah, OK?
• 40:55
  I've been there too for you. So they weren't really like.
• 40:58
  Shenandoah had US drift now Oh. It's terrible.
• 41:01
  The Shenandoah Speedway now. Yeah, it was like kind of
• 41:05
  banked. Not, you know, I've I've been
• 41:06
  there but for a private day and it was probably the most fun
• 41:08
  I've had. This entire The track is a
• 41:10
  blast. It's beautiful.
• 41:11
  Track in the When it when it's sunny out, there's fucking just
• 41:14
  mountains everywhere. I heard some bad things about
• 41:16
  the owners. Recently, so that's why we
• 41:18
  didn't go anymore. But yeah, back then that track
• 41:20
  was sick and like, qualified 17th and like should have
• 41:23
  qualified. Didn't have the best run.
• 41:26
  Well, in comparison to other drivers that made it, I should
• 41:28
  have made it. And I was like, F this, I'm
• 41:30
  done. I don't care.
• 41:31
  I'm not doing this shit anymore. This is freaking stupid.
• 41:33
  Whatever. But I had the competition
• 41:35
  interesting. Like, I won.
• 41:36
  I got in the podium. I was like, oh, I have to do
• 41:38
  this again. So the next year, me and Steve
• 41:41
  Misko, he's my roommate. We went out and did East End
• 41:44
  drift and we showed up down there and I had my white car,
• 41:47
  which is, you know, never looked the part that it ever should
• 41:50
  have. But it made a bunch of
• 41:51
  horsepower. So I was like sick and bring it
• 41:53
  down there. Steve's car was a built LSS 14,
• 41:56
  also didn't look the part that it should have.
• 41:58
  We show up to East Ten Drift and guys are looking at us like
• 42:01
  we're like we shouldn't be there.
• 42:03
  They have dog boxes, they have quick changes, They got
• 42:05
  liveries. They're.
• 42:07
  Super nice and all. This stuff.
• 42:08
  And me and Steve, like we're playing beer pong at night.
• 42:10
  We're not working on our cars. People are like checking tire
• 42:13
  pressures the night before. That's how I felt when I went to
• 42:15
  Shenandoah for that US drift event.
• 42:18
  I was like, I mean you remember Justin's car and that when he
• 42:21
  went to Shenandoah it was Sr. right?
• 42:23
  So it was an Sr. shit was low and we're just like looking at
• 42:27
  everyone else. And it was like full race teams,
• 42:28
  yeah. And then no one there, No one in
• 42:31
  the stands. Yeah, I'm like, why is everyone
• 42:33
  spending all this money again? Yeah, that's that was my vibe,
• 42:36
  right? And that was and.
• 42:36
  That's what a lot of US drifts were.
• 42:38
  But like you, Yeah, like you were doing that to try to make
• 42:40
  it to FD. That was the whole thing.
• 42:42
  But it's. Like, don't you think someone
• 42:43
  should be there? Like watching.
• 42:45
  Yeah, I don't know. It's program stuff, man.
• 42:47
  Like the people that are there or the people that are there
• 42:49
  with just doing a driver. That's so.
• 42:51
  Crazy to me. I feel like now it's probably a
• 42:53
  little bit more exposure too. Hopefully.
• 42:55
  Yeah, a little bit. But now to so many events that
• 42:57
  like people can't fill a grid, you can't fill a whole
• 43:00
  competition field not yet like. So it's like it used to be like
• 43:04
  US drift, Midwest Drift Union E 10 drift came after there was a
• 43:09
  couple West Coast series and that was that was.
• 43:11
  Really. I've never heard of any of.
• 43:12
  These, right, Yeah. What's E?
• 43:13
  What's the East? E 10 Yeah, what is that?
• 43:15
  It was a drift series that started in like the Nashville,
• 43:18
  TN area and they kind of they would do like Bristol Speedway,
• 43:21
  Nashville Superspeedway, a couple other tracks, stuff like
• 43:24
  that, that's. The one we went to.
• 43:25
  That's one. That means Steve went down now.
• 43:27
  And it's funny, like, I remember there's a guy down there.
• 43:30
  I'm not going to say his name, but he was literally like
• 43:31
  talking shit to us in the garage.
• 43:32
  Like, dude, these cars shouldn't even be here.
• 43:34
  Do these things Pass tech, da, da, da, me and Steve.
• 43:36
  Like, I don't. They definitely don't pass tech.
• 43:37
  But like, we're here anyway and like, we paid.
• 43:39
  So we're going to drive and we went down there and they're
• 43:41
  talking all this smack. And like, there was a couple of
• 43:44
  us party at night and it was me. Steve Miskin, Austin Mata.
• 43:47
  That was the podium, First, second, third.
• 43:48
  Steve Misco also. Mad at me?
• 43:49
  Fuck. Fired.
• 43:51
  Smoked everyone down here. Steve won the whole championship
• 43:54
  that series. That's great.
• 43:56
  Yeah. So the next round I went to, I
• 43:59
  think Steve got on the podium again.
• 44:00
  I got 4th and I broke 5 axles in one day.
• 44:04
  That. Yeah, that sounds.
• 44:06
  Like you had five. Axes.
• 44:08
  I had two. And then other people like Give
• 44:10
  me. So the the people that helped me
• 44:13
  work on the car was my friend Eric Cutler and Matt Moore.
• 44:15
  And they don't know. They're great wrenches, but they
• 44:17
  don't know two 40s. They didn't know there's two
• 44:19
  different sized axles. So they're putting the short one
• 44:22
  on the long side and I'd literally get a half a lap axle.
• 44:25
  That's crazy. Go do a lap.
• 44:26
  Another lap axle. What?
• 44:28
  Did you when you put that in? When you put that in, though,
• 44:30
  that shit is. No, you could mix it.
• 44:32
  Up. You can make, you can mix it up.
• 44:33
  It will work on that. Yeah, yeah, it happened.
• 44:35
  I've done it. 5 * a * a. Lot of times.
• 44:38
  And so I got fourth in that event.
• 44:40
  And then we're like, me and Steve were like, dude, we have
• 44:42
  like a serious running to go to win this championship, like both
• 44:45
  of us. Then there was the US Drift
• 44:47
  shootout at Dominion. I went there, got second place,
• 44:51
  got my license for FD, pulled out of E 10 Drift, which helped
• 44:55
  Steve because now I'm not robbing points from him.
• 44:57
  He went and won the whole championship.
• 44:59
  And now we're two roommates. We both just won FD licenses.
• 45:01
  We built brand new cars and went to FD.
• 45:03
  What year was this 17? That was 17 or no.
• 45:06
  That was 18. So the 19 we went in the FD.
• 45:09
  Wow. Man, yeah, you must have been
• 45:10
  like, what the fuck is? Going on, it was such a fast
• 45:12
  transition and like the amount of money spent to do this over
• 45:16
  like a couple years was like. I was about to ask what the time
• 45:19
  frame was looking like here because you mentioned a lot of
• 45:22
  stuff. Yeah.
• 45:23
  It was quick. Sounds like it was a year, yeah.
• 45:24
  But this sound tires were cheap. That was the thing.
• 45:29
  Why'd you get mad? 'Cause there's a meme right now,
• 45:31
  there's a meme right now of that guy crying where it's this guy
• 45:34
  he's. I don't even know what TV show
• 45:36
  it's from, but this guy's just like.
• 45:38
  Oh yeah, yeah. Yeah, I love that man.
• 45:40
  It's a screenshot of Kenda Tire 2354018.
• 45:45
  He's like. He's like. $80.00 free shipping
• 45:49
  on like simple tire and it's just been cracking me up lately
• 45:51
  'cause I'm like $80.00 a tire would be so sick.
• 45:54
  We used to run on federal 59 fives back before they would
• 45:58
  delay him every lap and a half. Yeah, why do we were getting
• 46:01
  them for $44 a tire? Oh, hell yeah.
• 46:03
  And we were like we're the fucking shit doing this like we
• 46:06
  are the best. We have the a good tire under
• 46:08
  us. We're we're great.
• 46:10
  Valino came out. Valino was like let me drop this
• 46:13
  bomb real quick on you guys, boom, that tire and shit And
• 46:17
  like the Federals were never good but we made them work
• 46:19
  because that's that's what we had that's all we had.
• 46:22
  So when I won, or got second place at the shootout to get my
• 46:25
  license, I actually, it was double elimination bracket,
• 46:28
  which was the craziest shit to follow in the whole freaking
• 46:30
  world. And it was so much driving and
• 46:32
  like you'd go down to a loser's bracket, you could win back into
• 46:35
  the winners bracket and the whole entire thing and all.
• 46:37
  If you lost twice, you were officially out.
• 46:38
  So you lost. You were still in and like you
• 46:40
  couldn't really follow the bracket very well, but like you
• 46:43
  would win and then you if you lost, like you'd have to drive
• 46:46
  again, like instantly. Who's teaching you like?
• 46:49
  It was Chris. So Brian Eggert from US Drift
• 46:51
  came up with this. And like the judges would keep
• 46:53
  track of actually what's going there's a bracket.
• 46:55
  If you could sit there and follow the bracket, you were
• 46:57
  good. But if you had to go drive and
• 46:59
  come back and look at the bracket, you're like, I got no
• 47:01
  idea what's going on here. So you just wait for your name
• 47:03
  and get called and you go back. Out.
• 47:03
  That's what I would do. Yeah, that was all you did.
• 47:06
  And I went out to the final battle against Brian Wadman.
• 47:09
  This one wadman won. I got second.
• 47:10
  I had a Vlena on one side and a chunked 595 on the other side.
• 47:15
  No tires left. I showed up thinking it was a
• 47:17
  regular competition. Brought tires for that.
• 47:19
  Didn't know it was double elimination.
• 47:20
  Ran ran out of tires in like the top 8.
• 47:24
  And now you're first. You're traveling around the
• 47:26
  country now, supporting yourself doing this.
• 47:29
  And and this is after you have your license for.
• 47:32
  FD No. That was to win my I was winning
• 47:34
  my license. That event, yeah.
• 47:35
  So now you're, are we up to speed?
• 47:38
  Like, are are we, are we at the point now where you're like, Oh
• 47:40
  yeah, I'm coming back in now. Like current day?
• 47:44
  Yeah. So, well, I did FD for three
• 47:46
  years, did pro spec. Yeah, that was three years.
• 47:48
  That was 18. So then, dude.
• 47:50
  So 19/20/21 and like in the in the OR it was 20/21/22.
• 47:57
  And then I took year off, took 23 off.
• 47:59
  I crewed for a team just like keep myself in it, spotted and
• 48:03
  like saw so many things. I'm like, oh, I'm I'm changing
• 48:05
  my driving style from next year completely.
• 48:08
  Like watching all my competitors drive all year long, I'm like,
• 48:12
  oh, I'm changing a lot. Yeah, well, that's good.
• 48:15
  Yeah, like it did help a lot. But yeah, it was like the time
• 48:19
  period of what happened, like we built the cars our my first year
• 48:22
  was COVID NFD which. Was a crazy thing in general.
• 48:26
  Just trying to calculate that. I'm like, did you just start
• 48:29
  during COVID? Starting COVID, yeah.
• 48:30
  Again, you're overnight race car driver.
• 48:34
  Yeah, literally. Like this sounds like it
• 48:37
  happened so quickly and now you are literally out there doing
• 48:42
  professional driving. Yeah, which is pretty sick.
• 48:44
  That's sick. It's.
• 48:46
  Pretty crazy, yeah. What the hell?
• 48:48
  Yeah. And like me and Steve built
• 48:49
  these cars at the same time too, which is like funny.
• 48:52
  So we built like our plan was we were going to have two of the
• 48:55
  exact same cars, same motors, trends, everything, like.
• 48:58
  So we had like one set of spares because we could use them for
• 49:00
  whatever. That obviously did not work.
• 49:02
  He went V8, I went to J. But the chassis suspension all
• 49:05
  itself was the exact same. We traveled around with Mike
• 49:08
  Power for the first year. He trailed our cars everywhere,
• 49:10
  which was made our lives like, completely easy, Just like.
• 49:14
  Just chip in for like a spot or something.
• 49:16
  Yeah, I mean we all like split gas and we split like some other
• 49:18
  like random expenses for the trailer and stuff like that,
• 49:21
  which made life like beyond. Without that, we we there's no
• 49:24
  shot. That's there was no shot.
• 49:25
  That sounds like a worked out. Type of situation like Mike
• 49:28
  needed help doing it, money and stuff like that.
• 49:30
  And like him, not paying that fuel bill to go around the
• 49:33
  country himself made it affordable to him, while us not
• 49:37
  paying it made it affordable to us.
• 49:39
  Win. Win.
• 49:40
  Yeah. It just worked out.
• 49:41
  You know what they call that? Frankie.
• 49:43
  A win. Win.
• 49:43
  Collaboration, yeah. I'm all right.
• 49:47
  It was sick. It was a major learning
• 49:50
  experience. Year one.
• 49:51
  It was crazy. I would be freaking out.
• 49:53
  Oh yeah. What was that like?
• 49:54
  So I showed up to round one in Saint Louis.
• 49:56
  My car wasn't done. I had no power steering when I
• 49:58
  got there. We put it on the pits, didn't.
• 49:59
  Panic didn't work. Panic.
• 50:01
  At all in the event just did not work and we put the, we didn't
• 50:05
  put delivery on it, we put the sponsor logos on it there.
• 50:07
  They were just stickers because the car was not done in time and
• 50:10
  like, it was insane. I think I there was no
• 50:13
  qualifying that year that it's at 32 drivers because the COVID
• 50:16
  year was like, the less time they could do stuff, the better.
• 50:18
  I went out there, I won my top 32 battle, got knocked out in
• 50:20
  top 16 round two, so I went to Saint Louis.
• 50:26
  And Mike's doing what right now? Pro or.
• 50:28
  Pro one OK, yeah, but this is back when we were all together
• 50:32
  in the same thing. So then round two was Texas
• 50:35
  Motor Speedway, Another track never ever been to.
• 50:37
  Sorry to cut you off again. Back then, he was in.
• 50:39
  He was in Pro 2 as well. Yeah, with me.
• 50:41
  All right. So you guys are all competing?
• 50:43
  Against all competing against each other.
• 50:44
  OK, so then we go to Texas Motor Speedway and do really well.
• 50:49
  I'm feeling good. Everyone's like, dude, like,
• 50:50
  you're killing it. Like you look like you have some
• 50:52
  of the fastest times you're in your zones.
• 50:53
  Everything's going great. I'm like hearts sick.
• 50:55
  Go out there against my boy Derek Madison and top 32.
• 50:58
  Do a good, good lead run Going to the Chase.
• 51:01
  Power steering seal blows out of the top of my rack in the Chase.
• 51:04
  I went probably 150 foot off track.
• 51:07
  Oh my God. If there was a wall there it was
• 51:10
  at the fastest part of the track.
• 51:11
  The car would have been a complete write.
• 51:12
  Off this is where Texas. Texas Motor Speedway.
• 51:15
  So what right at the entry? No.
• 51:17
  So it was like the entry there was actually super quick.
• 51:19
  It was a quick S turn long extension to a big sweeper.
• 51:22
  So it was as I transition to the big sweeper power steering just
• 51:26
  game over instantly go way off track got knocked out top 32.
• 51:30
  I'm like, damn, this sucks. Like, maybe, like, you know,
• 51:34
  maybe this isn't like really kind of what I.
• 51:35
  Want to do like I'm spending all this money?
• 51:37
  I got like no points on the board.
• 51:39
  The car is not working the way we wanted to.
• 51:42
  Car comes back, we fix it again, fix more stuff on it, whatever,
• 51:45
  Go to Seattle, WA. That track is massive.
• 51:49
  The live stream does not do justice for how big that bank
• 51:53
  turn is. It is huge.
• 51:56
  So we practice in the dry and me and Blake Olson were the 1st
• 52:00
  2:00 to get up and run the wall. So we're like cool.
• 52:02
  We got some confidence under our belt, like we're good to go,
• 52:05
  doing good. Whatever.
• 52:06
  Bah Bah, Competition day comes pouring rain.
• 52:09
  I was about to. Pouring rain.
• 52:11
  And this is when I learned something completely new that I
• 52:13
  never thought of. Defrosters.
• 52:17
  Oh 'cause it was foggy. I could not see anything.
• 52:21
  I won my top 32 battle against Mike Power actually, in like the
• 52:24
  light rain, getting one up against Austin Madda in the top
• 52:27
  16, and it was raining so hard my windshield completely fogged
• 52:31
  up. There's a picture somewhere
• 52:33
  online of like the front of my car and you can't see me in the
• 52:35
  car. You guys probably have no heater
• 52:37
  heater. Core No, we have nothing in
• 52:38
  there. So I'm like damn, like.
• 52:40
  That's the reason why I always keep my heater core.
• 52:42
  So I'm sitting on the line like I do my.
• 52:44
  I do my warm ups, like warm the tires up.
• 52:46
  I'm sitting on the line. It's pouring random.
• 52:48
  Looking at Austin, he's looking at me.
• 52:49
  We both can't see anything and we're going into this turn one
• 52:52
  at like 75 miles an hour on this massive bank.
• 52:55
  I went first, second, third, wiped my windshield, grabbed 4th
• 53:01
  and just entered. And I'm just looking out the
• 53:02
  window trying to like see where I am.
• 53:04
  That's badass. What the hell?
• 53:06
  Not smart at all. Like, it was so cool, though,
• 53:08
  but I was in the zone. Like, I'm like, we're doing
• 53:11
  this. Like we have to do this.
• 53:12
  Again, it's good to hear he. Just barely beat me.
• 53:15
  He like I went three tires off. I think he went like 2 1/2 tires
• 53:18
  off and they they gave him the win and I was like damn.
• 53:22
  What's the? There's got to be a fix for that
• 53:24
  we got to make, so we make something.
• 53:27
  E30 Convertible Defrosters is an electric heater motor with an
• 53:33
  electric fan on it and it you can just put it on, on off.
• 53:35
  Switch blows on your windshield, done.
• 53:36
  You're good. So then.
• 53:38
  Literally something that. I'm so now I'm 3 rounds into pro
• 53:41
  spec my rookie year and I went into that shit confident.
• 53:44
  I was like, this car is going to be an animal.
• 53:46
  I'm going to kill it. I'm like, confident as hell.
• 53:48
  And now it's like 3 rounds in. I did A2, top sixteens and a top
• 53:51
  32, and I'm like, I suck. I'm like, damn, this is
• 53:54
  terrible. Now the questions coming back is
• 53:56
  this really? Yeah.
• 53:58
  Is that for? Me now, are you bringing people
• 53:59
  with you and paying them or is this like, kind of just?
• 54:02
  Like so back then, like my first year was like a lot of just
• 54:04
  friends helping kind of thing. Like, I didn't really like Chris
• 54:07
  Knapp was my spotter, didn't pay him, OK Gary Lewis was like my
• 54:10
  main tech. He's one of my best friends,
• 54:12
  grew up with him, helped me work on the car.
• 54:13
  That's where I. Built my other job.
• 54:15
  He's an awesome. Guy, He's the man.
• 54:16
  Nicest guy ever. Just like basically paid for his
• 54:18
  food, hotels and flights. Like he didn't have to pay for
• 54:21
  anything, but he didn't get paid.
• 54:23
  And then there was my friend Gio who would just help wrenching a
• 54:26
  car who I've known forever as well, same thing.
• 54:29
  He didn't have to pay for anything but did not get paid.
• 54:31
  So we show up to Irwindale. Car is now.
• 54:33
  It's got a full season of abuse on it.
• 54:35
  Things starting to fall apart. We don't know how to maintain
• 54:37
  this thing. Like I've never before that
• 54:38
  never had a winners, never had a dog box.
• 54:40
  Never had a built 2J like that like.
• 54:42
  Never, You guys built. You guys built the whole.
• 54:43
  Car Yeah, we built the car. FDF FAB did a lot of the chassis
• 54:46
  work and up in Canada, but other than that we did the whole
• 54:48
  entire car ourselves. OK.
• 54:50
  Frankie's favorite brand? FDF.
• 54:53
  That's great. He does not like the
• 54:55
  adjustments. I don't like anything.
• 54:56
  Why every time we get a car here that has FDF it just ruins the
• 55:00
  whole day. I don't know why.
• 55:01
  I mean last time I can explain it state they packaged something
• 55:05
  wrong. So we literally had the whole
• 55:07
  car part and there weren't wasn't the right shit and I was
• 55:10
  like all right, awesome. Put it all back together.
• 55:11
  Charge the customer because I didn't order any of the shit and
• 55:14
  tell him let me know when he finds the right stuff.
• 55:16
  Yeah. It's just like I love it.
• 55:18
  It's been great on my car since I've had I got the rear grip kit
• 55:20
  and the front Mega Man or not Mega Man, this Mendis kit and
• 55:23
  it's been perfect on my car for. Four years pissed me off too.
• 55:26
  But yeah, I'm glad it works out forever.
• 55:28
  I mean, you and Chris Knapp love it so.
• 55:30
  Steve, it's got to work, It does work.
• 55:32
  So I'm not going to lie, when I first put it on the car, well, I
• 55:35
  went from having cut knuckles, stock, rear stuff.
• 55:37
  See, that's what I. Like crazy.
• 55:39
  To this crazy car I went for having a one J powered 500
• 55:43
  horsepower, very stock chassis car to this car that was an
• 55:48
  absolute animal. Like grip.
• 55:51
  I mean, you have. A quick change.
• 55:52
  Dip Yeah, And like, learning the drive that in the series was
• 55:55
  not. I should have taken a year off.
• 55:57
  Learn the car, should have taken, like, that's 100% what I
• 55:59
  should have done now by the end of the first year, I did learn
• 56:02
  the car. We learned a lot of stuff about
• 56:03
  the car very fast. Went to Irwindale, got on the
• 56:06
  podium, got third place and I was like.
• 56:08
  That's good. I can do this.
• 56:09
  Cool. What's the specs on the car?
• 56:10
  It's a 2JZ S 14 GT all that it's got like how the back is like
• 56:17
  hollowed out. It's not rear rad and.
• 56:19
  Rear rad. The back is basically completely
• 56:21
  hollow. Like you can take my rear Fender
• 56:23
  and like push it all the way to my fuel cell.
• 56:25
  Basically like it'll stop on the bash bar when it gets there.
• 56:27
  It's got to have like a foot of crumple zone in the rear.
• 56:30
  Is that like a specification that they?
• 56:31
  Ask. No, it's just one of the things
• 56:33
  where like. A lot of the car, you know.
• 56:35
  Well, you want the car to be as light as possible, so you you
• 56:37
  know within rules of course, so you can cut all the metal out
• 56:40
  that you absolutely can. And also like, it gives you that
• 56:43
  one foot of like, I'm two mile an hour too fast going to this
• 56:47
  wall right now kind of thing. Yeah, like an extra bit of yeah,
• 56:51
  wiggle. Room.
• 56:52
  So that year my car made like 750 horsepower and the thing was
• 56:56
  an animal. And then like as like we put a
• 56:59
  better turbo on it and I'm working with a better engine
• 57:01
  builder. Rad Dan builds my engines and
• 57:02
  like we're doing a bunch of stuff.
• 57:03
  The car this year made in 900 and 900.
• 57:08
  It's. A spaceship.
• 57:10
  Thing is, it was. I only used that tune once
• 57:12
  because like other it just didn't matter.
• 57:14
  I just blew the tires off the car otherwise because I didn't
• 57:17
  have like the greatest of tire on the car this year.
• 57:19
  You literally went from like a normal kind of, yeah, I feel
• 57:23
  like a normal person's build, not that, you know, we're all
• 57:26
  extraordinary, but but like a a normal build to literally a race
• 57:34
  car. Yeah, there was no in between
• 57:36
  there. You didn't crank the the the One
• 57:38
  J up. Well, the One J Master.
• 57:40
  I mean the one J made at like a tires point was like 600 plus
• 57:42
  worth power. That's pretty fast.
• 57:44
  Like it was pretty quick. But like the chassis could not
• 57:46
  put that power down, That chassis was like a floppy loose
• 57:49
  bag and nuts and bolts by the end of its life.
• 57:51
  So what? Do you what do you what tire
• 57:52
  size were you running for on the Pro?
• 57:55
  We so we have to run a 25535 all have to we all run the same
• 57:58
  tire. No matter what weight or
• 58:01
  anything. All of us of the cars have to be
• 58:02
  2900 lbs with us in it and we all run the same tire and we all
• 58:06
  now run the same ECU. It's crazy.
• 58:08
  You want every car to be the same weight.
• 58:10
  Minimum weight. Minimum weight.
• 58:12
  Weight 32255 Yeah 35. Yeah.
• 58:18
  And Josh is running a 265 with an SR20 that.
• 58:22
  Guy's on drugs. Yeah, but like we make, so we
• 58:25
  make the tire work. Like the cars are fast, like
• 58:28
  we're only maybe a second and a half to two seconds slower than
• 58:31
  the pro one cars. Like the cars are very fast now,
• 58:34
  like now that we got used to them and like everyone can
• 58:37
  really we can start to dial because like everywhere we all
• 58:39
  learn together now like pro specs getting it's it's nutty
• 58:42
  it's not like a go there and like anybody can win on any day
• 58:45
  kind of thing. Like the competition is.
• 58:47
  The competition's tough. The drivers are good.
• 58:49
  All the drivers have been in it for quite a bit of time now.
• 58:52
  Whether they're just getting in, they have a had a good Pro Am
• 58:55
  under their belt. Whether they're coming in with
• 58:57
  the same car where I came in with a completely new car and
• 59:01
  that that shit was just like, hey, you think you're good?
• 59:04
  Doubt it. Where did the S14 come from?
• 59:08
  I bought it. You just got it.
• 59:09
  Yeah, I bought. I was like, I'm going to FTM
• 59:10
  build a new car like this white car is.
• 59:13
  Gone. Like there's not.
• 59:15
  There was 0 things about that car that passed proper tech.
• 59:19
  You can't. You can tell me to fuck off
• 59:20
  whenever you want. So, so you're going to build
• 59:23
  this car. How do you plan on paying for
• 59:25
  this? Were you going to get sponsors
• 59:26
  to do this? You can tell them.
• 59:29
  To fuck off, I was like, what did you just?
• 59:30
  Because this is this is crazy. Oh yeah, so we did get some
• 59:34
  sponsors that helped out. And if you go to a company and
• 59:37
  you're like, hey, I'm going to compete in FD, yeah.
• 59:39
  First of all, you only have one or two years of pro am.
• 59:43
  Pro am, yeah. And that's.
• 59:45
  It with no sponsors, by the way, of Pro Am, Yeah.
• 59:48
  And so you go to them for help. And a lot of companies are
• 59:51
  willing to give you parts for a big logo on the car.
• 59:55
  And that's like, at first you're like, yeah, 'cause I need the
• 59:57
  part, give me it. But then as soon as you get your
• 59:59
  second year, you have the part and you're like, I'm poor.
• 1:00:02
  Like, I need some money. And they're just like, yeah, we
• 1:00:05
  don't care. I'm like.
• 1:00:07
  Now now you have to keep running the logo.
• 1:00:09
  Take it off to one of your contracts, keep the part, but
• 1:00:11
  the logo comes off. So a couple like I know a lot of
• 1:00:15
  pro one guys like you know obviously like Chris Forsberg,
• 1:00:17
  Dylan Hughes, like Ryan Turek, like Englishtown boys kind of
• 1:00:20
  thing. So I'd like reached out to a lot
• 1:00:22
  of them for help a lot. I became really good friends
• 1:00:24
  with Brad Dan through all this because he's like the Two J guy.
• 1:00:27
  That kind of sounds like he would be a fun time to be man.
• 1:00:29
  He's awesome. He's the coolest dude ever.
• 1:00:32
  Him and his wife, Renee, are just amazing people.
• 1:00:34
  He built like a cool. I watch his videos too, as well
• 1:00:37
  as look at some of his products. Ranky.
• 1:00:39
  Maybe we should sell some of. Those you guys should?
• 1:00:41
  I don't even. Know GE intake, Plenum, adapter,
• 1:00:44
  shifters, hydro fillet. Parts Jay-Z stuff.
• 1:00:48
  What's the name of the company? Rat Industries.
• 1:00:51
  OK. Yeah, I heard that, Yeah.
• 1:00:53
  That's why they don't sell it here, 'cause it's Jay-Z stuff.
• 1:00:55
  Yeah, I got. It Jay ZS are.
• 1:00:57
  Cool. Yeah, they've been putting more
• 1:00:58
  stuff, more Jay-Z stuff on the fashion website.
• 1:01:00
  Go check it out. They got a lot of Jay ZX parts.
• 1:01:03
  Oh yeah, we've been putting a lot of JDM fanboy shit on there.
• 1:01:07
  But yeah, yeah, D Max stuff and all.
• 1:01:09
  That talk about your own inventory?
• 1:01:11
  I mean, that's the shit I. Like so little plug here,
• 1:01:14
  little. Plug there.
• 1:01:15
  Little shameless plug there. Go check out the website.
• 1:01:18
  So that Frankie could take us somewhere on a trip.
• 1:01:21
  I don't know. But Speaking of trip, I'm just
• 1:01:23
  amazed again. Yeah, because that was a that's
• 1:01:25
  a lot of traveling, Yeah. Yeah, so let's go back to the
• 1:01:28
  car. So you you got a couple of
• 1:01:30
  sponsors. We got a couple of sponsors at
• 1:01:32
  that, so. You So you got a control arm,
• 1:01:34
  Yeah. And then you're.
• 1:01:35
  Like I. Still need a diff, so.
• 1:01:38
  So at US Drift, the one that I got second place and it got my
• 1:01:40
  license, Josiah was there and the owner of FDF, Josiah Feliz.
• 1:01:45
  So he was there competing and I didn't directly beat him, but I
• 1:01:49
  beat him over on the competition, so, So I kind of
• 1:01:52
  like he was. Like you're sponsored.
• 1:01:53
  No, I walked up to him because some of his crew members watched
• 1:01:56
  the The Scotty channel which Dad was heavily a part of at the
• 1:01:58
  time and we got chatting or whatever and we just we came up
• 1:02:02
  with he gave me an extremely good price to tube front and
• 1:02:05
  rear of the car roll caged a car and a front angle kit with
• 1:02:10
  spares, full spares and a rear grip kit with full spares.
• 1:02:12
  He gave me an insane price that I was like holy shit, yeah.
• 1:02:16
  And then I looked at into it further and it was a Canadian
• 1:02:18
  price. So it was actually with 30%.
• 1:02:20
  Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And I'll stop.
• 1:02:22
  Hell yeah, let's go. Oh, I was pumped.
• 1:02:25
  Like he hooked it up to the moon.
• 1:02:26
  So what you got? You sent your car over.
• 1:02:28
  There, yeah, Me and Steve drove the we trailed the cars there
• 1:02:31
  and we were, you know, not making that great of money at
• 1:02:34
  the time. So we were like we're going to
• 1:02:36
  put both of these shells into one trailer.
• 1:02:39
  So we literally drove put Steve's.
• 1:02:41
  Car and take their. Shells, Yeah.
• 1:02:43
  So no. No, no, no, no you did not.
• 1:02:45
  Oh yeah. So we put Steve's car in.
• 1:02:47
  Yeah. And then we jacked it up, I
• 1:02:49
  think it was like almost 30 inches.
• 1:02:51
  That's no, this is. We cut the front end off of my
• 1:02:54
  S14, shoved the front frame rails under it, lowered his car
• 1:02:57
  down on the wood blocks, Ratchet strapped them together and then
• 1:03:00
  did the front and rear and took him to Canada like that.
• 1:03:03
  And they stopped us at the border and they're like what's
• 1:03:05
  in there? Like 2 cars and they're like
• 1:03:07
  what? That's a not a big trailer.
• 1:03:09
  He had two cars in there. They went open the doors and
• 1:03:11
  they were like, I'm supposed like this.
• 1:03:13
  Yeah, they like over top of, Yeah.
• 1:03:16
  They don't bother you for shit like.
• 1:03:18
  That no, I don't really care. They're like do these things,
• 1:03:20
  pieces of junk like we don't. Whatever.
• 1:03:21
  What do you think? You think?
• 1:03:23
  They're gonna look at Ricky and be like, yeah, there's gonna be
• 1:03:26
  a lot of drugs in there. They did stop us.
• 1:03:29
  They did. They did look through the
• 1:03:30
  trailer. They would have.
• 1:03:31
  They have to. And it was our first time ever
• 1:03:33
  crossing the border into Canada. So, like, that instantly raised
• 1:03:36
  like red flags, I guess. So we were there for like 1/2
• 1:03:37
  hour or so, but they let us through.
• 1:03:39
  And then we've gone to and from there a couple Times Now doing
• 1:03:41
  other stuff and like, it's like, they're like, all right, you're
• 1:03:44
  good, go ahead. Yeah, All right, you're good.
• 1:03:45
  Go ahead. Like it's it's almost a joke.
• 1:03:47
  It's. It's.
• 1:03:48
  It's also and if I'm going through the border with knowing
• 1:03:51
  that I'm not doing anything wrong, I'm like.
• 1:03:53
  It's Cakework. Yeah, it's Cakework.
• 1:03:55
  So it'd. Be different if I knew.
• 1:03:56
  I'm nervous smuggling. Because, like, we've never
• 1:03:58
  crossed the border before. So we got like, the titles in
• 1:04:00
  place. We got like the registration for
• 1:04:02
  the trailer. Good.
• 1:04:03
  We were, we were prepared. They were just like they asked
• 1:04:06
  us questions and that was it. They didn't ask to look at a
• 1:04:08
  single piece of paper except for our passport.
• 1:04:10
  Now what about This is the This is the real question.
• 1:04:13
  What about coming? Back.
• 1:04:14
  Yeah, that's what I was thinking too.
• 1:04:15
  So coming back. So when you go there, you're
• 1:04:18
  dealing with the Canadian police.
• 1:04:19
  Yes. When you're coming back, you're
• 1:04:20
  dealing with the American police.
• 1:04:22
  They're like, yes, American, go ahead, give you a little pat in
• 1:04:25
  the back, send you through. No big deal.
• 1:04:27
  They didn't. Question like where are these
• 1:04:28
  cars from in the? Trailer.
• 1:04:29
  No, nothing. Didn't question.
• 1:04:30
  Well, the way back the car was probably more complete, so I
• 1:04:32
  don't even know how you got it back.
• 1:04:34
  Oh, we did two trailers on the way back.
• 1:04:35
  OK. Yeah.
• 1:04:36
  Yeah, but you only had one truck.
• 1:04:39
  No, we did not do that. That would be cool though.
• 1:04:41
  But we took two trucks there too.
• 1:04:42
  OK, yeah. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no,
• 1:04:45
  no. That would be cool.
• 1:04:47
  That would be sick. Would I have been surprised?
• 1:04:49
  No. Because I was honestly waiting
• 1:04:52
  for you to be like, well, what you could do.
• 1:04:54
  So we've done some sketchy things before.
• 1:04:56
  So now you get your car, you got a tube front, you got probably
• 1:04:59
  you got arms on there and everything, yeah.
• 1:05:01
  So for an engine race car. Set up.
• 1:05:03
  Yeah, so now we have to, you know, buy the motor, buy a
• 1:05:05
  trans, buy a daplane, buy a clutch, buy a diff, buy the axe
• 1:05:08
  you. Bought a whole new engine.
• 1:05:09
  I thought you were going to use your old.
• 1:05:10
  One no use the whole new engine because I wanted my white car to
• 1:05:13
  stay together for a practice car I didn't want.
• 1:05:16
  To stop having a. Car it's destroyed.
• 1:05:18
  It's it's sitting. I have AI have AI have.
• 1:05:21
  I have a garage at my parents house like one that I put like a
• 1:05:24
  pole barn I put up and The thing is it's sitting I have a new
• 1:05:26
  shell I'm putting together another mess around car right
• 1:05:29
  now. It's absolutely destroyed like
• 1:05:31
  the frame rails like I'm not even joking.
• 1:05:33
  They're like this from that wreck.
• 1:05:35
  Like the last time I drove it was that the gambler wrecked it
• 1:05:37
  and that's that's been it. Yeah.
• 1:05:40
  All right. But yeah, so bought a motor
• 1:05:43
  stuff. So basically, so I actually got
• 1:05:45
  extremely lucky. So the COVID year, I'm a union
• 1:05:48
  welder. I built a white cloth plant in
• 1:05:51
  Hillside, NJ and we did a what plant?
• 1:05:53
  White Claw. The drink.
• 1:05:55
  The drink? God bless.
• 1:05:56
  During COVID you contributed to? Oh yeah.
• 1:05:58
  White Claw sponsored you? No.
• 1:06:00
  Well, kind of their money did. We did seven days a week, 10 to
• 1:06:03
  12 hour shifts for like 4 1/2 five months straight.
• 1:06:06
  Every single dollar from that job went into the car.
• 1:06:09
  There's single dollar went into the car then plus my credit
• 1:06:15
  cards and this and everything I had went into that car.
• 1:06:19
  But you made it happen, made it happen, and you had how many
• 1:06:21
  sponsors when you went into that season?
• 1:06:24
  Not many. If you go on my Instagram and
• 1:06:25
  look back, the car was. Bear.
• 1:06:27
  Pretty bear for sponsors. Yeah, OK.
• 1:06:30
  Yeah. Did not have a lot going on.
• 1:06:32
  I'm. Just pretty sick.
• 1:06:33
  Though well, no. Now I'm thinking like, what the
• 1:06:35
  fuck? Why?
• 1:06:36
  What kind of fucking sales tactic was that?
• 1:06:40
  Oh. This is when White Claw was
• 1:06:41
  like, popping off. Yeah, and they were like, we
• 1:06:44
  don't care. This needs to get done and.
• 1:06:46
  Yeah, well, 'cause COVID was going to happen, and probably
• 1:06:48
  somebody in that marketing department was like, yeah,
• 1:06:50
  people are going to get bored and they're.
• 1:06:51
  Just going to Well, this was during COVID.
• 1:06:52
  This was already. During during the shutdown, I
• 1:06:54
  remember driving to work, not a single car in the road, driving
• 1:06:57
  home from work, not. It was amazing.
• 1:06:59
  It was awesome, dude. It was amazing.
• 1:07:00
  The speed limits haven't changed.
• 1:07:02
  I've said they're still up there.
• 1:07:04
  Dude, there's a lot more cars on the road though.
• 1:07:06
  We go, I go 80 miles an hour, around 17 now, and no one cares.
• 1:07:09
  Yeah. No, no one.
• 1:07:10
  It's great. Yeah, yeah, so.
• 1:07:12
  When I took the Sequoia to 105, I I took the Sequoia to 105
• 1:07:16
  because I was just feeling ballsy, because I was like
• 1:07:18
  Frankie fucking Cruises at the speed I could do this.
• 1:07:21
  First of all, I'd like to see your Chevy go over 100.
• 1:07:24
  It won't because it got a speed limiter at like. 96 Yeah.
• 1:07:28
  Not. In the Sequoia baby.
• 1:07:30
  Not in the Sequoia because. And here's the here's the
• 1:07:32
  shocking part, is I was going 105 and I was passing like a
• 1:07:39
  car. Everyone else is going like
• 1:07:41
  85908590. I love it, Yeah.
• 1:07:44
  It makes it hard for me. Yeah, I have like a 45 minute
• 1:07:47
  drive to work every day and I literally give myself like 35
• 1:07:50
  minutes. Where do you work?
• 1:07:51
  I'm I'm at American Rahway right now.
• 1:07:53
  Rahway OK, yeah, Union Gang. And then where you from?
• 1:07:57
  Down in Jackson. Yeah, right by the track.
• 1:08:00
  Like 6 flags area. Yeah, my parents.
• 1:08:02
  So if there was not a road in between my parents woods it
• 1:08:05
  would back up to the safari. There's one Rd. that splits it,
• 1:08:08
  yeah. You ever?
• 1:08:09
  Holy crap. Wait in there.
• 1:08:10
  Wait. Wait, no.
• 1:08:11
  But there is a Dirt Rd. that goes behind that Reed Rd.
• 1:08:14
  I. Clearly that's a big it's a big
• 1:08:16
  off first spot. I took Frankie there.
• 1:08:19
  We were that close. How do you not remember any?
• 1:08:22
  Do you not? Do you remember that?
• 1:08:23
  Yeah, we were there, Frankie. Did we see a giraffe?
• 1:08:26
  No, it was offseason. It was offseason.
• 1:08:28
  Yeah, but they're still there. They don't take the animals I.
• 1:08:30
  Showed you, oh, they're on vacation.
• 1:08:32
  We could have. Got a zebra animals vacation?
• 1:08:34
  We're not going to get a zebra one.
• 1:08:36
  We wouldn't steal a zebra. I would steal a zebra.
• 1:08:38
  I would want a better animal. Oh, what's?
• 1:08:41
  Better than you know. I'm not sitting.
• 1:08:42
  What's my fucking lion? I'm not bringing that home.
• 1:08:45
  Kangaroo dude, I feel like a. Zebra is basically isn't a zebra
• 1:08:49
  basically a fucking horse. You're telling me we would bust?
• 1:08:52
  It similar to like a horse with a Mohawk.
• 1:08:54
  Malcolm Can you find out if a zebra is?
• 1:08:57
  Considered. I feel like a zebra.
• 1:08:58
  I don't. Think it's considered a horse?
• 1:08:59
  I let me know if I can ride a donkey.
• 1:09:01
  Yeah, I think. It's more of.
• 1:09:02
  A donkey, yeah. You're bugging if you think
• 1:09:05
  you're going. To go in there.
• 1:09:06
  And let me. Know if I can ride it too.
• 1:09:08
  I'm a zebra. They're pretty big.
• 1:09:10
  Let's see, their zebra's are not horses, but they are both in the
• 1:09:14
  Equidae family of animals. That means Jackass the Jackass
• 1:09:18
  family. The donkeys.
• 1:09:21
  I can't believe you don't even remember the Six Flags part, OK?
• 1:09:26
  But you can't see from Reed Rd. You can't see Six Flags.
• 1:09:28
  Yeah, but when you're driving down Reed Rd., it is only 30
• 1:09:31
  feet off in the distance you can see it.
• 1:09:33
  Yeah, there's. Like a double fence.
• 1:09:35
  Look at the fence. Yes.
• 1:09:37
  You can walk up to it if you really want to.
• 1:09:39
  It's like you could get in trouble, but like, they don't
• 1:09:42
  really care. Let's go.
• 1:09:43
  Ricky, let's go. I brought Frankie here.
• 1:09:45
  I planned this whole day. I mean, I remember the day I.
• 1:09:48
  Watched many off road videos to find this road.
• 1:09:51
  Yeah, cross referencing with Google Maps and this guy doesn't
• 1:09:54
  even remember. Like you just.
• 1:09:56
  Knew where it was. Because I had to.
• 1:09:58
  Look it up the the Reed Rd. is a legal Rd.
• 1:10:01
  There is off road trails off of Reed Rd. that are not legal that
• 1:10:04
  everybody uses, but people live on that road.
• 1:10:07
  That's there's a lot of roads like that in New Jersey.
• 1:10:09
  That did not know down the pine barrier and.
• 1:10:11
  Stuff like. That Malcolm.
• 1:10:11
  Did someone just donate money for a zebra?
• 1:10:14
  Yes, they said Fatah. Eli FK 7 says.
• 1:10:18
  Here's $20 money towards Frankie's new zebra.
• 1:10:21
  We wouldn't steal a zebra. Well, now we can buy.
• 1:10:24

• 1:11:32
  First I was on the six legs thing, mainly because my parents
• 1:11:36
  used to tell me this all the time because I would want to go
• 1:11:38
  to the safari and they're like, we can't go there, the monkeys
• 1:11:42
  jump on the car. And Oh yeah, they used.
• 1:11:44
  To and they used to I. Grew up in Jackson.
• 1:11:46
  I lived in Jackson from one years old till I think like
• 1:11:50
  maybe like 2223. How many cars got destroyed?
• 1:11:54
  Oh, windshield wipers ripped off and antennas.
• 1:11:56
  Oh yeah, they would go. I wired.
• 1:11:58
  Me. My mom would.
• 1:11:59
  Turn there. Yeah, they destroyed the car,
• 1:12:02
  ripped the antennas off, Yeah, everything.
• 1:12:04
  The. Only.
• 1:12:04
  One that baby doesn't remit. Did you?
• 1:12:06
  Remember you probably you probably aren't old enough by
• 1:12:08
  like. One point so now you can't drive
• 1:12:10
  through. You have to go into Six Flags as
• 1:12:13
  you do a safari tour on their vehicle and the monkeys are
• 1:12:16
  caged up. Wait since when?
• 1:12:18
  Wait, are you driving through? It's got to be at least seven
• 1:12:21
  years like that. No, I am.
• 1:12:22
  I went like four years ago in in my car.
• 1:12:25
  In the Chev. Yes, I feel like a long time.
• 1:12:28
  It's been a longer look it up. I got a fun fact.
• 1:12:30
  Online, but maybe it was because of Kovid that they let no Let
• 1:12:34
  this happen. No, When I went, because I know
• 1:12:37
  when I went it was P Kovid. Right.
• 1:12:39
  Then maybe, but it's been longer than that.
• 1:12:41
  Wow. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:12:43
  They let you drive through. I drove through.
• 1:12:46
  We could just come up and hammer your car.
• 1:12:49
  Yeah, when we were driving, I remembered like halfway through,
• 1:12:54
  I remember I was like, oh fuck, fuck the monkeys.
• 1:12:56
  Yeah, they're gonna tear this shit up.
• 1:12:57
  I was like, Oh my God. Yep, we fucked.
• 1:12:59
  Up so. Bad.
• 1:13:00
  They were caged at that point. Yeah.
• 1:13:01
  And then you go through it mountain.
• 1:13:02
  Just looked at. The and I'm like, oh, OK.
• 1:13:05
  Dude, that was 2012 that they stopped.
• 1:13:09
  For in a while, Frank shut the hell up.
• 1:13:13
  I'm just telling you, I drove through there in our car.
• 1:13:16
  I feel like. 32 years. Ago.
• 1:13:18
  I feel like they may have opened up during COVID because the park
• 1:13:20
  itself was shut down. Yeah, And they were like, we
• 1:13:23
  need money. Yeah.
• 1:13:24
  I do. I do.
• 1:13:26
  I do remember the the the trucks you're talking about though, the
• 1:13:29
  safari truck, I never went on it, but I seen them.
• 1:13:32
  Yeah, like big. Like 4 by 4 lifted like
• 1:13:35
  military. Vehicles I'm trying to.
• 1:13:36
  So I'm going through and I'm, I'm like, Oh my God, the fucking
• 1:13:39
  monkeys. I forgot.
• 1:13:40
  And then we get there in in the occasion.
• 1:13:41
  The kids, OK. That's how I remember it.
• 1:13:45
  That's how monkeys dude back in the day.
• 1:13:47
  Scary as. Fuck, I would be scared as.
• 1:13:50
  Shit. And then they would jump on your
• 1:13:51
  car and they'd, like, split their ass and you just put their
• 1:13:54
  ass right in your mouth, like on your windshield and you're like,
• 1:13:56
  what the fuck is this? What are we doing?
• 1:13:58
  Right, so this is like, so my dad.
• 1:14:00
  It was funny as hell we used to go through.
• 1:14:01
  My dad would throw peanuts like on.
• 1:14:04
  Not for the monkeys, though, like the giraffes would come up.
• 1:14:06
  And like, eat them and. Like shit like that.
• 1:14:07
  The monkeys would come like that big.
• 1:14:08
  Don't touch the windows. Like people would get out and
• 1:14:11
  start trying to fight them. Dude, it was, it was a weird.
• 1:14:14
  I couldn't believe that they let stuff like that.
• 1:14:16
  It's amazing. I wonder how long it went on.
• 1:14:19
  Probably for I mean, they had. To have gotten sued into
• 1:14:22
  oblivion. I.
• 1:14:23
  Don't. I can't.
• 1:14:24
  You signed a No. Yeah, when you go and you got to
• 1:14:25
  sign a waiver like. If you give a fuck, someone's
• 1:14:28
  bringing them to court. I mean over and over I mean.
• 1:14:30
  They're going to win. Here's.
• 1:14:31
  Yeah, they probably lost. Here's here's another crazy
• 1:14:33
  thing that that Why are we talking about Six Flags so much?
• 1:14:36
  But I've ran a 5K through that Safari.
• 1:14:39
  Oh my God. With the animals.
• 1:14:41
  With the animals, it was one of the fastest times I've ever ran.
• 1:14:43
  I pissed them. No.

  No way you did that. No way.
• 1:14:47

  You're. Not running fully in the Safari.
• 1:15:09
  The for most of it you're in like the woods of the Safari.
• 1:15:12
  There's a little trail in there. But then for another the for
• 1:15:15
  like the the back straight. Yeah, you're running through
• 1:15:18

  straight, it's only and they say it's only a quarter mile.
• 1:15:32
  You run right through the lion cage, and they have.
• 1:15:35
  No, I'm telling you, I ran the best 5K of my life.
• 1:15:37
  I remember it to this day. It was the hardest I've ever ran
• 1:15:40
  where I actually had to piss. I pissed myself when I crossed
• 1:15:42
  the line. You actually pissed yourself.
• 1:15:44
  Dude, it was like I had no control over anything.
• 1:15:46
  I ran everything out. But I have run a 5K there.

• 1:16:18
  It's right there. That was all the.
• 1:16:20
  Did you like run next to the ostriches?
• 1:16:22
  Like do you do race them? No, but I have played with
• 1:16:24
  ostriches. Before fuck.
• 1:16:25
  That I rather play with a lion. My yeah.
• 1:16:28
  OK, fuck can. We.
• 1:16:31
  Can we tangent? We've been on one for 30.
• 1:16:33
  Minutes. I played with a lot of exotic
• 1:16:35
  animals and this is how my aunt, my aunt on my mom's side was a
• 1:16:40
  chef like a a professional. Chef She cooked ostriches.
• 1:16:43
  No, this isn't going where where you think that, although I heard
• 1:16:47
  ostrich meat is edible. Though, I mean, I'm sure it's
• 1:16:49
  meat. It is.
• 1:16:50
  I mean, they eat ostrich eggs, don't they?
• 1:16:52
  Oh, that was fear factor. Is that real?
• 1:16:54
  No, that's gonna be. Real.
• 1:16:55
  Anyway, she worked for this. She worked for this very, very,
• 1:16:57
  very wealthy guy. Michael Steinhart knows his
• 1:17:00
  name. He's an investor or something.
• 1:17:02
  I forgot his story. Yeah.
• 1:17:03
  Sounds very. But regardless, he had this
• 1:17:05
  crazy property. My aunt lived on the property
• 1:17:08
  like the with her husband, like the guy paved like she cooks for
• 1:17:13
  him and she can live on this property They had crazy.
• 1:17:17
  Hands. Not really.
• 1:17:21
  Not the same. I would not call that that I.
• 1:17:25
  Didn't know I didn't know I didn't know what.
• 1:17:28
  Year it was, I thought. It was an old colonial.
• 1:17:31
  Home it was actually this crazy house.
• 1:17:33
  It was he's very into like nature.
• 1:17:35
  So the the the the house isn't crazy extravagant.
• 1:17:38
  It was like a big log. That old building.
• 1:17:40
  It was a log cabin. But like the money that he made
• 1:17:43
  would go into, like, the conservation of these animals,
• 1:17:46
  he would have like, these endangered animals and then
• 1:17:48
  rereleased them. It was a sanctuary.
• 1:17:50
  Fuck, that's the word. And like, he had ostriches and
• 1:17:54
  shit, and you could get really close to him and like, kind of,
• 1:17:57
  in my opinion, unsafely close, 'cause I'm like, shouldn't
• 1:18:01
  somebody be here to like that? You weren't running through like
• 1:18:05
  the path at this guy's house, no.
• 1:18:07
  No, no, no, no, no this. Guy I'll leave walking and I'll.
• 1:18:10
  Pull the photos of this shit 'cause like I've played with
• 1:18:12
  like huge tortoises. I accidentally.
• 1:18:15
  What? Dude, I wrote it.
• 1:18:15
  What did you kill? No, I didn't kill anything.
• 1:18:18
  At least I don't think I did the what.
• 1:18:20
  Endangered animal Did you murder?
• 1:18:22
  No. So they had this greenhouse, and
• 1:18:25
  this is all alleged, but they had this greenhouse and they had
• 1:18:28
  these little monkeys in there, really small.
• 1:18:31
  They were adorable. She let the monkeys out.
• 1:18:33
  I happened to leave a window open and then why do we?
• 1:18:41
  Not know this, I don't know. But why were you touching
• 1:18:43
  windows? My if my cousin, if my cousin
• 1:18:45
  ever taps into this, he will, he will comment because he was
• 1:18:47
  there and we didn't know. What to do?
• 1:18:49
  The one that lost the monkey. We we're leaving the greenhouse
• 1:18:52
  and we turn around and the motherfucker one of them runs
• 1:18:57
  out and we no, we're. Kids.
• 1:19:05
  We don't know where that monkey went.
• 1:19:07
  He went to freedom. That's where he went.
• 1:19:08
  There's no other properties near there.
• 1:19:10
  That thing had to have died. Snake probably killed him,
• 1:19:11
  honestly. Yeah, Bird a hawk.
• 1:19:14
  Poor thing. Monkeys are smart.
• 1:19:15
  I and it was a gotta be a fancy. Dude at the ass.
• 1:19:18
  Yeah, dude. I don't know what.
• 1:19:20
  Any like those animals? Imagine Carl just disrupted,
• 1:19:22
  like, the entire ecosystem. That's what I'm saying, 10
• 1:19:25
  years. I had to have been.
• 1:19:27
  The last one like 12 or? 1312 or 13 years old, dude.
• 1:19:31
  So like, the fact that I remember this.
• 1:19:33
  Still, my conscience bears heavy because.
• 1:19:36
  That was the last monkey in existence of that kind of
• 1:19:39
  species. We killed the whole.
• 1:19:40
  Species I don't know. I bite him.
• 1:19:42
  I don't know. That's insane.
• 1:19:44
  But like you. Didn't even chase him.
• 1:19:46
  Did you say anything to anything?
• 1:19:47
  You just let him go. I didn't say anything.
• 1:19:49
  You just watched him leave. I got him run away.
• 1:19:51
  I could. Have got grounded.
• 1:19:52
  And your cousin didn't think? Maybe we should grab them.
• 1:19:56
  We just. You guys bolted, bounced.
• 1:19:58
  Just say we. Just did it, not my monkey.
• 1:20:00
  Not my problem out of here. Did you know?
• 1:20:01
  We didn't know. Did you go?
• 1:20:02
  Close the window. We.
• 1:20:04
  Left. Oh my God, I only saw the one
• 1:20:07
  monkey leave you. Probably.
• 1:20:08
  All got out 100% no no, no, no. No, no, no.
• 1:20:11
  And I didn't hear about it after that.
• 1:20:12
  So your parents were just like, what are you guys doing back
• 1:20:15
  there? They had, they had monkey in the
• 1:20:17
  ramps like they had cool. He had like a lot of like,
• 1:20:21
  little areas built for like, like, not monkeys.
• 1:20:25
  But they had. He had chimpanzees and like
• 1:20:27
  lemurs and like flamingos and shit.
• 1:20:29
  That was cool. They.
• 1:20:30
  Were near a chimpanzee. Fuck.
• 1:20:32
  And. They're not even like, they're
• 1:20:34
  not really like caged, caged those like chimpanzees that.
• 1:20:37
  You were basically a Michael. Jackson like a natural
• 1:20:39
  environment for like a monkey to be in.
• 1:20:40
  But like you were basically, yeah, you went to Neverland,
• 1:20:43
  Neverland. Neverland.
• 1:20:43
  Ranch. That's you.
• 1:20:44
  Stay the night. It was honestly, it was honestly
• 1:20:47
  sick. It was honestly a sick place.
• 1:20:49
  I got the best photos of all my S thirteens there, dude.
• 1:20:51
  Wait, what? I would drive.
• 1:20:53
  It was a big ass compound, so it had its own Rd. system in there,
• 1:20:57
  so. You're still going there?
• 1:20:58
  No dude that was my aunt stopped working for him in like 2017 or
• 1:21:03
  18/20/17 or 18. She stopped working for him.
• 1:21:09
  So that was right around when the 240 started disappearing.
• 1:21:11
  So how many? What was your favorite animal?
• 1:21:14
  Not even accidentally killed. No, there was like a cheetah in
• 1:21:18
  there. Whoa what?
• 1:21:19
  But they're those are more caged up.
• 1:21:21
  It's I would. Dangerous.
• 1:21:22
  You can't just let open a window and let him out.
• 1:21:24
  Animal, Dangerous animal. He had a.
• 1:21:26
  Craving these. This guy's like, this guy has to
• 1:21:28
  be a billionaire. Who is these people have these
• 1:21:30
  animals in? Their backyard.
• 1:21:31
  I gotta. And they're not his to like.
• 1:21:33
  Keep like he. He But they're releases.
• 1:21:35
  Them where they like, rehabilitate them there and
• 1:21:36
  then, yeah, send them back. It's like endangered things that
• 1:21:38
  are endangered. He like tries to.
• 1:21:40
  Piss him off one night and that's it.
• 1:21:41
  He's got like a crazy avian, It's like.
• 1:21:44
  The Tiger show, Exactly. Honestly, Tiger King, or
• 1:21:47
  honestly, with a guy with that crazy amount of wealth, he was
• 1:21:50
  like the nicest guy to talk to, that's all.
• 1:21:52
  That's as much as I know for sure.
• 1:21:53
  Like he was never. Michael Jackson was nice, too.
• 1:21:55
  You would think that he would have a crazy car.
• 1:21:57
  He just has a Jaguar, but he has like 10 flamingos.
• 1:22:00
  So, like, who the fuck is really winning?
• 1:22:02
  Oh, by the way, yes, you can eat ostrich meat.
• 1:22:04
  You would just prepare it as you would beef.
• 1:22:06
  So. Oh, wow.
• 1:22:07
  You eat medium rare. You could eat it raw like
• 1:22:09
  tartar. I know where to get tartar.
• 1:22:11
  I know where to go on. You want to steal ostrich.
• 1:22:13
  He had like Rams too, and like albino Kangaroos.
• 1:22:15
  That one was crazy. They were so.
• 1:22:17
  Small. They were so small and I was
• 1:22:20
  like, what the fuck dude? This is right.
• 1:22:22
  Where is this near? It's in upstate New York.
• 1:22:24
  I'm not going to like name where it is.
• 1:22:26
  In case, yeah, in case somebody like says something.
• 1:22:29
  But like, no, that guy I've. I got to say that was definitely
• 1:22:33
  like one of them, a unique experience that I feel like not
• 1:22:35
  a lot of people got to have. Like 11 less monkey.
• 1:22:38
  When maybe multiple? Yeah, multiple.
• 1:22:42
  Fucked. Absolutely fucked.
• 1:22:43
  When people say like oh. I've been remembering that for
• 1:22:46
  SO. Long see like the like
• 1:22:47
  depression in your face when you were talking about it.
• 1:22:49
  Well, because I didn't know what to do.
• 1:22:51
  I was a kid. I was such AI had a crazy moral
• 1:22:54
  dilemma. I'm just.
• 1:22:55
  Learning anything from that event.
• 1:22:57
  Did I learn anything? Don't fuck around anywhere
• 1:22:59
  you're not supposed to. Fucking.
• 1:23:01
  Also also loose lip sync ships I didn't get in trouble ain't?
• 1:23:05
  Gonna see me ratting, yeah. Wow.
• 1:23:10
  So you're thinking about people with like lions and whatnot?
• 1:23:15
  I feel like if someone told me like, hey dude, I got an I got
• 1:23:17
  17 AK 40 sevens in my basement, I'd be like, oh, that's kind of
• 1:23:21
  cool. If someone said I have one
• 1:23:22
  cheetah in my backyard, I'd be like I don't fucking trust you
• 1:23:25
  and. You should get away from me.
• 1:23:26
  Yeah. Literally.
• 1:23:28
  Does anyone else feel that way or is it just me?
• 1:23:29
  I feel like it was like a sketchy.
• 1:23:31
  Depends where it is. I think it depends on the state.
• 1:23:33
  Florida, do whatever you want. I guess.
• 1:23:35
  No one cares. So I actually have a friend that
• 1:23:37
  lives in there, Kennon. He's got a reptile sanctuary.
• 1:23:40
  It's called Camp Cannon. And we went there.
• 1:23:42
  I actually wrote a tortoise there.
• 1:23:43
  The thing was, you rode it. Oh, yeah.
• 1:23:45
  Sat on top of it, cruised around.
• 1:23:47
  Yeah, pretty. Well.
• 1:23:48
  I played. He has some tortoises as well.
• 1:23:50
  Yeah, tortoises. They're so.
• 1:23:51
  He had. He was rehabilitating an
• 1:23:52
  Anaconda there. It was like a 12 to 15 footer,
• 1:23:55
  yo. You go to check on the tank one
• 1:23:57
  day. Not there.
• 1:23:59
  Fuck. Fuck.
• 1:24:01
  What if it was clear? What if it was an Anaconda?
• 1:24:04
  It wasn't, though. What if it was it?
• 1:24:06
  Was would you do anything different?
• 1:24:08
  Probably. You wouldn't said anything.
• 1:24:10
  Probably a little monkey isn't going to hurt.
• 1:24:12
  Anybody. So you would now what if it was
• 1:24:14
  a cheetah cage? He wouldn't Mike the Steinhart.
• 1:24:18
  Would he was hypothetically. You let the cheetah out.
• 1:24:22
  First of all, don't I'm. Running for my life first of
• 1:24:24
  all. The first thing I could find to
• 1:24:26
  house me that the cheetah cannot break into unless you're
• 1:24:29
  hitting. 68 miles an hour, You. Ain't getting away from that
• 1:24:31
  bitch for. Real.
• 1:24:32
  Ricky might dude, the cheetah cheats.
• 1:24:35
  I'm hiding, dude. I'm hiding.
• 1:24:36
  OK, so hypothetically the cheetah jumps out of the window.
• 1:24:39
  You guys are walking away. You see it?
• 1:24:41
  You see it, just look around real quick and pop.
• 1:24:43
  I'm doing the, I'm doing the. Don't, don't.
• 1:24:46
  I'm doing the. I don't know.
• 1:24:47
  I'm doing the right thing at that point.
• 1:24:48
  That sounds like danger, and I would tell.
• 1:24:50
  Fucking Danger the cheetah. I would have to tell.
• 1:24:53
  How many? How many kids that thing would
• 1:24:54
  grab before they caught it? Dude, he has, he has like a
• 1:24:58
  aviary too. Like, do you know what an aviary
• 1:25:00
  is? An aviary is a bird sanctuary.
• 1:25:02
  Fuck that. It reminds me of Jurassic.
• 1:25:04
  Park Oh yeah, awesome. Crazy bro.
• 1:25:07
  All of these awesome crazy birds just in this larger cage that
• 1:25:11
  you can go in. Because I have windows.
• 1:25:13
  The the cage was huge, dude. It's got to be like the cage has
• 1:25:15
  got to be like 10 times the size of the shop.
• 1:25:17
  It was huge. It was just for birds though,
• 1:25:18
  and that way they can habitate in there and bird around and
• 1:25:22
  then like not worry about getting hit by like another
• 1:25:26
  bird. Like, you know what I mean?
• 1:25:27
  Like an eagle is going to come and fuck a fucking Talon and
• 1:25:30
  then make AE Talon. Eagle Talon.
• 1:25:33
  Making Eclipse. Making TSIS.
• 1:25:36
  Yeah, but you know, it's crazy. It's.
• 1:25:39
  Crazy. It does.
• 1:25:39
  It's crazy that sanctuaries like that over here exist and you can
• 1:25:42
  go there. Because like when we went down
• 1:25:43
  to cannons, this was shortly after Scotty got paralyzed.
• 1:25:46
  He had turtles, tortoises, so we brought them down there to give
• 1:25:49
  to him so he could take care of them.
• 1:25:50
  They were friends. So we go down there and he's got
• 1:25:53
  this 1512 to 15 foot Anaconda that is rehabilitating with a
• 1:25:56
  bad neck. So he's like, oh.
• 1:25:58
  How does a snake have a bad? Neck.
• 1:26:00
  I don't. I don't know.
• 1:26:01
  I got ran over. That's a long neck.
• 1:26:03
  That's a. Long neck They got it.
• 1:26:04
  When? When does the neck end?
• 1:26:06
  At his ass. So he's got this thing there.
• 1:26:10
  So it's me, Scotty. I want to say it was probably
• 1:26:12
  Maddie and Alex, big boy. And we're down there and Cannon
• 1:26:16
  is like, pumped. He's like, oh, I'm so glad you
• 1:26:18
  guys are here. I can pull this Anaconda out and
• 1:26:21
  if he gets me, you guys can help get him off.
• 1:26:24
  How about now? Without any other words, he
• 1:26:27
  pulls this thing out and this thing is pissed the fuck off.
• 1:26:32
  It's got a sore neck. It's a dude.
• 1:26:33
  It's not happy to be out. It's not happy to see people.
• 1:26:36
  So he grabbed this thing and he's like tailing it around.
• 1:26:38
  He's like, look, this is what you do.
• 1:26:39
  How big is? It it's like 12 to 15 feet.
• 1:26:42
  This is huge. He gets close to me and he's
• 1:26:44
  like, look, it's not bad, Ricky, you take it.
• 1:26:46
  I didn't think about it. I just, I took the tail of this
• 1:26:48
  thing and I'm like, now I have the tail.
• 1:26:51
  Without thinking about it, everyone's like Ricky, what the
• 1:26:54
  fuck? Are you doing?
• 1:26:55
  Scotty's like, dude, like dude, you get bit on this channel.
• 1:26:58
  Like like our medical doesn't cover this, you know, like we.
• 1:27:02
  Can't put this video. Out.
• 1:27:03
  So I got this Anaconda and I'm like kind of doing the thing or
• 1:27:05
  whatever. And it turned quick and went to
• 1:27:06
  bite me and I just threw the tails like fuck this, I'm outta
• 1:27:10
  here. It's on dude.
• 1:27:11
  It's on Scotty's channel somewhere.
• 1:27:12
  The whole video. Is.
• 1:27:13
  And I'm like, dude. And I'm like, I watch that now
• 1:27:16
  and I'm like, what the hell? What was I thinking?
• 1:27:19
  I'm not Steve Irwin. I'm not Jeff Corwin.
• 1:27:21
  He saw, you know, like Ricky saw the camera.
• 1:27:22
  He's like, oh, it's gonna be perfect.
• 1:27:24
  Dude, I wasn't. He just got super close to me
• 1:27:25
  and he's like, here, you try it. And I just like, what am I
• 1:27:29
  doing? Why am I doing this?
• 1:27:31
  This is that back. When it was not back real quick.
• 1:27:33
  Whoa whoa. So I did it for like 2 seconds
• 1:27:36
  and then it just turned around and went to bite me and I just
• 1:27:38
  flung that thing. He had to get it and like put it
• 1:27:40
  back in the box. But then like, box.
• 1:27:42
  We're thinking about it later on.
• 1:27:43
  We're like, dude, if that thing got someone like, how we get
• 1:27:46
  like I? Don't know how you're getting
• 1:27:48
  that thing off of I I don't. Like I I guess you, I mean,
• 1:27:51
  people do it all the time, you know, But like.
• 1:27:52
  I mean people. Someone's getting bit.
• 1:27:54
  So like the guy that the guy that he gets is getting bit and
• 1:27:58
  then the people taking him off are probably going to be more.
• 1:28:00
  Worried about that thing snapping my arm in half just
• 1:28:02
  'cause it felt like it do. You see the guy that tried to
• 1:28:04
  get eaten by 1. What do you mean?
• 1:28:06
  He put on an armor suit that was like made to get constricted,
• 1:28:10
  and he like, wanted to get constricted by 1:00.
• 1:28:12
  So I wish he did it. No, he did it.
• 1:28:14
  He he got constricted, didn't die.
• 1:28:16
  He got to a point where they were like it.
• 1:28:18
  The snake started to like, bend the armor and they they called
• 1:28:21
  it off. They had to go send people in
• 1:28:22
  there to get them. Off, dude, I got another one.
• 1:28:24
  Me and Malcolm were listening to you listen to that podcast,
• 1:28:26
  right Malcolm? What's his face?
• 1:28:28
  Someone on Rogan who who like just loves to go in the Amazon
• 1:28:30
  and almost get killed every week.
• 1:28:32
  Yeah, so he's there. This guy just likes to fucking
• 1:28:37
  wrestle. Snakes, Anacondas.
• 1:28:39
  I don't know why. What?
• 1:28:40
  So that's so stupid. Not.
• 1:28:43
  Cool. I mean, is he dead?
• 1:28:45
  I guess they like, go out there and they they catch him.
• 1:28:47
  It's like their idea of fun. I I don't know why.
• 1:28:50
  I don't think there's a point to it.
• 1:28:51
  I don't think they eat them. I don't.
• 1:28:52
  They just want to learn about the species.
• 1:28:54
  You ever watch? Pokémon.
• 1:28:55
  So he doesn't. He's got to catch him so.
• 1:28:58
  He so he's out there with like a group, but he's not like too
• 1:29:01
  familiar with the area. But he apparently he does this
• 1:29:03
  sometimes, so he jumps on one. On one.
• 1:29:06
  Yes, they jump on. They're they're big.
• 1:29:09
  Like big, the biggest one's. A human jumped on the.
• 1:29:12
  Snake to try to like grab it. OK.
• 1:29:16
  The fucking thing turns on him. He said he he said he knew he
• 1:29:19
  fucked up. He said all here, all I remember
• 1:29:22
  is he's like, he's like I knew I fucked up.
• 1:29:24
  I felt it go around my. He's like I felt it go around my
• 1:29:27
  waist. And he was.
• 1:29:28
  Like, I was like, you're done. He.
• 1:29:31
  Yeah. He was like, kind of like, I'm
• 1:29:32
  probably going to die, yeah. From, he said his shoulders.
• 1:29:35
  We're almost touching. His shoulders were almost
• 1:29:37
  touching by the time they were able to get the snake off him,
• 1:29:40
  like that's how much she was being constricted by this thing.
• 1:29:42
  I'm like, what is wrong with you?
• 1:29:43
  People like they live in the jungle for a.
• 1:29:46
  Reason No one's near people. Yeah, they.
• 1:29:49
  Don't like us? Dude.
• 1:29:52
  I was like, what? Yeah.
• 1:29:53
  When I heard that, I was just like, imagining it.
• 1:29:55
  I'm like, Oh my God, he's. Getting his cracking.
• 1:29:57
  Yeah, I was. Just saying what did it feels
• 1:29:59
  nice as hell for like a second though.
• 1:30:01
  I don't think. I think you go from fear to pain
• 1:30:04
  instantly. Hmm ohh fear dude the fear.
• 1:30:07
  You don't think be? Crazy.
• 1:30:08
  Like the this. Like have you guys ever been in
• 1:30:10
  a situation where you're like not like that.
• 1:30:12
  I just fucked up and like I might this might be it for.
• 1:30:14
  Me, I was about to ask. You ever have anything like that
• 1:30:16
  in your life? I mean, I feel like you rode
• 1:30:19
  bikes. Yeah, I rode like bike.
• 1:30:20
  There's definitely a bunch of like, in the air moments where
• 1:30:22
  you're like, yeah, this isn't good, this is not good.
• 1:30:26
  And so I'm like, I've done some pretty sketchy stuff at work,
• 1:30:28
  like walking on top of pipes that are like pretty high up and
• 1:30:30
  like, you almost slip and you're like, yeah, there was nothing to
• 1:30:33
  catch me like that's 40 feet down.
• 1:30:35
  That would be game over. So I know the feeling you're
• 1:30:37
  talking about, so it's definitely happened before, but
• 1:30:39
  I can't think of anything I thought about this the other
• 1:30:41
  week when we were talking about trying.
• 1:30:42
  To think of when there was, it was just the motorcycle thing
• 1:30:45
  that anytime you you mentioned this, the story where you pick
• 1:30:48
  up a fucking Anaconda and now you can look back and go, that
• 1:30:52
  was bad. Yeah.
• 1:30:54
  Yet I've been having a lot of those lately where I'm thinking
• 1:30:57
  back and I'm like, that was probably not the smartest thing,
• 1:31:00
  but they're not like, it's not a snake.
• 1:31:02
  OK, the monkey was one thing, but like, but like the other
• 1:31:06
  thing, but. You didn't play with the monkey,
• 1:31:07
  just. Yeah, but you didn't know why I
• 1:31:08
  was scared. I was like.
• 1:31:11
  I mean, I'd be scared I'd be I. Well, 'cause we watched this
• 1:31:13
  movie in school, I don't know if you guys watch about how Aid
• 1:31:15
  started the Outbreak movie. No, I was like, Oh my God, here
• 1:31:18
  we go. You might.
• 1:31:20
  Have started. Oh, you saw?
• 1:31:20
  Outbreak that movie. Yeah, in health class, In
• 1:31:23
  health. I tried to tell everyone to see
• 1:31:24
  that. Movie.
• 1:31:25
  I've never seen it. So Outbreak is like the original
• 1:31:28
  Contagion was the name. Of the new movie.
• 1:31:30
  It was it, wasn't it 8. Which is a really good movie.
• 1:31:32
  Right. Yeah.
• 1:31:33
  Yeah. Good movie.
• 1:31:33
  So. Outbreak is the original version
• 1:31:35
  of that. Pretty much it was.
• 1:31:36
  It was an epidemic, monkey and like.
• 1:31:39
  So this, this monkey gets out of the zoo, I guess.
• 1:31:42
  Or something or something like that, Yeah.
• 1:31:44
  And the open one of the opening scenes is like, is like a little
• 1:31:49
  girl playing in her backyard. And then she sees a monkey and
• 1:31:52
  she's like, oh, and like in California somewhere.
• 1:31:55
  And she goes and like the monkey comes over and she's playing
• 1:31:57
  with the monkey and then it just scratches her or something.
• 1:31:59
  And that's how it. Starts.
• 1:32:00
  That's it. Fucking end of the world.
• 1:32:02
  From that moment on, patient zero.
• 1:32:05
  Carl might have started another one, that's what.
• 1:32:06
  He might have started to start a COVID he.
• 1:32:08
  Literally started the movie Outbreak.
• 1:32:10
  Congratulations. I was told you I was 12 or 13.
• 1:32:14
  That's around. When you watched that movie,
• 1:32:15
  thinking about that too. Yes, how did you?
• 1:32:18
  Live with yourself. You didn't.
• 1:32:20
  Want to sleep? That night.
• 1:32:21
  I Dude, we That was a really weird ride home.
• 1:32:24
  You're probably sitting there like monkey.
• 1:32:26
  Yeah, I'm trying to think like where he's.
• 1:32:28
  Going like where is he hanging? Out.
• 1:32:30
  Yeah. What's he doing?
• 1:32:31
  What's he going to eat? You're probably getting cold
• 1:32:33
  that night and like, I was concerned.
• 1:32:35
  Realistically, thank God, a hawk probably got.
• 1:32:38
  Him. Well, how big of a monkey was
• 1:32:39
  he? Small.
• 1:32:40
  Like how small? Oh dude, there's probably a
• 1:32:43
  little kid laying in bed. He's like Mommy, there's a
• 1:32:45
  monkey on the window and. My there's no.
• 1:32:48
  Monkey you. Know right, you little idiot,
• 1:32:50
  and just gets. Swooped by a hawk, Yeah.
• 1:32:53
  Damn, Carl. Well, I didn't realize we
• 1:32:55
  unlocked that memory. I know.
• 1:32:56
  It was kind of sad, I think, but at the same time, yeah,
• 1:33:00
  hopefully a hawk got him. Honestly, he's probably that
• 1:33:02
  monkey. Probably just went back to the
• 1:33:03
  cage, yeah. He probably was like, yeah, I
• 1:33:04
  miss my friends. I'm going back, hanging out to
• 1:33:06
  homies. Yeah, it's.
• 1:33:07
  I mean, monkeys are pretty smart.
• 1:33:09
  That's the thing. Once they wanted food, he'd
• 1:33:10
  probably just, you know. Chris snapped just.
• 1:33:13
  Texted. I know.
• 1:33:14
  He just texted me too. Bitch, I hope.
• 1:33:18
  He sent it to you too. I didn't get it, he did say.
• 1:33:20
  I'm going to. Steal a zebra, dude he is.
• 1:33:28
  The man. Chris Knapp is funny.
• 1:33:31
  He's the man. Yeah.
• 1:33:33
  What did Chris? Ever.
• 1:33:34
  Nicest man ever. Ride bikes, too.
• 1:33:36
  A little bit, he did. He had a ramp in front of his
• 1:33:38
  yard at one point in time. In the front.
• 1:33:40
  Yeah, in front of his house. That's fucking sick, man.
• 1:33:42
  My parents would never man. Yeah, he rode BMX for a little
• 1:33:47
  while. And they have the ramp at club
• 1:33:49
  loose. Yeah, that thing is dilapidated.
• 1:33:51
  Yeah, that was a Front St. project that Didn't I actually.
• 1:33:54
  Just drove past it like 2 days ago and I was like looking at it
• 1:33:58
  like that thing isn't. You got to like really take care
• 1:33:59
  of those ramps. Well, yeah, especially when
• 1:34:01
  they're. Outdoors, yeah, it's like front.
• 1:34:03
  St. Remodel then remodel it.
• 1:34:05
  Dude, Front St. can't keep it down.
• 1:34:06
  Sorry. Together, you come on.
• 1:34:07
  Got to take care of you. Sorry, Tom.
• 1:34:10
  Sorry, Tom. They've been doing pretty good
• 1:34:13
  though. Tom hates me.
• 1:34:14
  What do you? Mean.
• 1:34:15
  Didn't Josh just pop a motor and he borrowed 1 and he popped that
• 1:34:18
  one? Yeah.
• 1:34:19
  But I don't really count, Josh. It's really just Tom.
• 1:34:21
  If Tom is doing OK, then they're doing OK.
• 1:34:23
  Dude, I was fixed. I don't know if that was the
• 1:34:25
  nicest thing you've ever said about Tom.
• 1:34:27
  Maybe if Tom is doing all right because he's doing all.
• 1:34:29
  Right. Shit up every event.
• 1:34:30
  So if he's not doing that, that's pretty good, I.
• 1:34:32
  Remember, I don't remember what event it was but I walked over.
• 1:34:35
  I just finished or just fixed my friend Christian Nelson's drive
• 1:34:39
  shaft with like this little janky stick welder because they
• 1:34:41
  had it and I get stick Weld. So I fixed the form of the track
• 1:34:44
  and then I go 2 pits down and Tom like runs up to me and he's
• 1:34:47
  like dude, you think you could Weld my exhaust manifold with
• 1:34:49
  that thing? It's broken.
• 1:34:51
  I'm like probably. I was here.
• 1:34:52
  I was there for that. Yeah.
• 1:34:54
  So I stick welded his exhaust manifold back together in the
• 1:34:56
  pits with like some janky 7018 rod that was there, like just
• 1:35:00
  got it going real quick and he went back on the track and he's
• 1:35:02
  like, yeah, it's fine. It held, I think the motor, I
• 1:35:04
  think the motor pipe, yeah. So you guys might be able to
• 1:35:08
  answer this. Why did his Sr. sound so bad?
• 1:35:13
  Bad. It sounded horrible.
• 1:35:15
  When forever? Two years ago 2.
• 1:35:18
  Years ago, when it was really loud, was that?
• 1:35:20
  Oh yeah, it was dumb loud. It sounded the 4th version the.
• 1:35:23
  5th version, the 6th ver. I don't know it.
• 1:35:26
  Was miss. What manifold did he have that?
• 1:35:28
  Usually I have no idea. Changes the noise.
• 1:35:29
  Yeah. Oh, definitely.
• 1:35:31
  Yeah. It has to be that.
• 1:35:32
  No, it was. No, it wasn't a stock matter
• 1:35:34
  because you welded. It.
• 1:35:35
  I welded it. Yeah, you welded.
• 1:35:36
  It. I think I remember him saying
• 1:35:38
  something about it. It's not sounding good.
• 1:35:39
  It sounded horrible. Yeah.
• 1:35:41
  I would have rather had 15 VQS rolling around the track.
• 1:35:45
  That's crazy. Then have that thing sitting
• 1:35:47
  there screaming next to me. I don't agree.
• 1:35:48
  It was miserable. I.
• 1:35:50
  Remember, Ricky was one of the first people.
• 1:35:52
  I think I might have said something like, Oh yeah, I.
• 1:35:54
  Keep cracking turbo. Manifolds or whatever, because
• 1:35:56
  it's on the bottom, but I remember Ricky might have been
• 1:35:59
  the first person to be like, oh, that's why I go top mount.
• 1:36:01
  Yeah, top mount dude 100%. Now I know it was definitely.
• 1:36:05
  Three SRS. I had a stock one, I had a semi
• 1:36:07
  built one and then I had a built one and the built one had a top
• 1:36:10
  mount peak boost manifold on it with A2 bolt tile wastegate that
• 1:36:14
  was just dumped to the ground and that was the best sounding
• 1:36:17
  Sr. in the history of Sr. Tubular manifold.
• 1:36:20
  That's crazy to say too, Yeah. If you go, I think I have the
• 1:36:23
  video on Instagram somewhere. Like way back when it sounded so
• 1:36:27
  good. It was actually Brian Hopps old
• 1:36:29
  turbo setup from his yellow mustard car with the SR22IN it
• 1:36:34
  that he left water in it and it froze and it cracked the motor
• 1:36:39
  and that was his old turbo. OK, he sold it to Mikey.
• 1:36:42
  Mikey sold it to me. I'm trying to just.
• 1:36:44
  That's cool. And that thing sounded.
• 1:36:47
  And then he put a VQ in that car, right?
• 1:36:49
  Did that car got a V? Q got a VQ or I think it had
• 1:36:52
  another Sri. Think it just got an Sr.
• 1:36:54
  Oh wait, right, crack the block correctly.
• 1:36:55
  Yeah, I was like, imagine taking out an SR22 and putting in a VQ.
• 1:36:59
  Right. That's like, Oh yeah, I mean.
• 1:37:01
  He's left water in it and like dude oh man, that sucks.
• 1:37:04
  That's when you know you should, yeah.
• 1:37:06
  Stop Sr. ING.
• 1:37:07
  I can't believe if you if you take an Sr. out and you put a VQ
• 1:37:10
  in it. I think he had an Sri think that
• 1:37:13
  car got an Sr. and then I think his next car went was the VQ car
• 1:37:17
  the Gray car I'm. Trying to remember what manifold
• 1:37:21
  Tom had, but I'm not remembering anything.
• 1:37:23
  I don't know what it had, but. It was some bottom mount thing
• 1:37:26
  and it was cracked. The bottom mount it was.
• 1:37:28
  Bottom mount it was. That's why I fixed it.
• 1:37:30
  Was it the silk? Road one, I don't know.
• 1:37:32
  I don't think it would be that it.
• 1:37:33
  Was some bad miserable sounding. Well, maybe it was the Stick
• 1:37:36
  Worlds. Maybe.
• 1:37:38
  I don't know. I don't know.
• 1:37:40
  I think that's the best thing on that motor, the whole motor.
• 1:37:45
  Nah, it was the Pexi Power FC running it, dude.
• 1:37:48
  No. You know what's funny?
• 1:37:48
  Because years ago it probably was running a power FCA Couple
• 1:37:52
  years ago. Oh, Tom he still?
• 1:37:54
  Is. I think he's no, he's on a link.
• 1:37:55
  Oh, he's on a link. Now maybe like as well as power.
• 1:37:57
  FC. Yeah, I think it's funny because
• 1:37:59
  Tom has the link little display where the Power FC.
• 1:38:02
  He went link and then went back to Power FC and then went back
• 1:38:06
  to link, yeah. I know he's good friends with
• 1:38:08
  Jimmy and Jimmy's a big link, that's.
• 1:38:09
  Why he keeps going back to the link.
• 1:38:11
  Yeah, no, the I remember I was, I was having dinner with Jimmy,
• 1:38:17
  Josh and Tom and they were talking about it when when they
• 1:38:21
  went back to the power of C and they were roasting like Jimmy
• 1:38:24
  because of the Link. Fucking revlimiter thing.
• 1:38:26
  Oh my God, what's the revlimiter?
• 1:38:28
  I remember that so. That was the only reason they
• 1:38:30
  didn't want the link. So, link, so FD cut a deal with
• 1:38:34
  Lync. I'm sponsored by Haltech.
• 1:38:35
  I ran. I love Haltech.
• 1:38:36
  That shit is so good. User friendly.
• 1:38:39
  Everything's fine. FD cut a deal with Lync.
• 1:38:41
  Everyone in pro spec had to switch to a Lync ECU.
• 1:38:43
  Yeah, so we put the Lynx in the car.
• 1:38:45
  Do you think that's kind of crazy it?
• 1:38:47
  Was dude. It's like if you have the money,
• 1:38:49
  if a company goes to FD with money, I want to sponsor the
• 1:38:52
  series FD is going to make. This is the figure that it
• 1:38:55
  needs. If you can meet that figure, you
• 1:38:58
  can. You can be a sponsor.
• 1:38:59
  How much do you think it was? It had to be a good chunk, but
• 1:39:01
  Link is link is massive overseas.
• 1:39:03
  They're getting big over here, but they're huge overseas.
• 1:39:05
  So they had the money and I remember when we put that ECU in
• 1:39:08
  the car, put on the dyno made like I don't like 700 and 5800
• 1:39:12
  horsepower. So and I went to the track and I
• 1:39:14
  did one lap and I came back and my tuner was there and I was
• 1:39:16
  like, if we don't change this revlimiter, I'm going to wreck
• 1:39:19
  this car. What's a revlimiter issue?
• 1:39:20
  It was like it had a soft cut and then it went to a hard cut
• 1:39:23
  and it was like. Rap.
• 1:39:26
  Rap. Yeah, like it wouldn't let you
• 1:39:28
  follow. Through, yeah, it wouldn't let
• 1:39:30
  you follow through. So if you're on a wall and you
• 1:39:32
  need your horsepower and then all of a sudden you're like and
• 1:39:35
  when it cut it would cut you. Power.
• 1:39:37
  Probably like it felt like 3 seconds, but realistically it
• 1:39:40
  was. Probably enough like a.
• 1:39:42
  Second, go down. Oh yeah, that's what my car
• 1:39:44
  would do when I had a crazy boost.
• 1:39:46
  Yeah. It literally would be the same
• 1:39:48
  thing. It felt like it was just cutting
• 1:39:50
  power out like a rubber. But they fixed this.
• 1:39:53
  I mean it's a it's a setting in the computer factory revlimiter
• 1:39:56
  from Lync. I don't know if they change it
• 1:39:58
  now, but then was not good for drift cars.
• 1:40:01
  It was not good. But luckily they were like
• 1:40:04
  super. They helped us out a lot.
• 1:40:06
  Like you could call in and like guys anytime.
• 1:40:07
  Like Forest. He's one of the main tuners and
• 1:40:08
  workers for Lync. Awesome dude.
• 1:40:10
  We got a hold of him instantly. He sat down.
• 1:40:13
  We sent him our file. He adjusted it, he sent it right
• 1:40:15
  back to us, put it in the car and it's it's been good sense.
• 1:40:17
  Forest Wang. No.
• 1:40:19
  No. It was like, what?
• 1:40:20
  What's? No, no, he works for.
• 1:40:23
  Lync. He works for Lync.
• 1:40:24
  He's just a he's a tuner and a worker for Lync, OK?
• 1:40:27
  Yeah, they definitely, the customer support's pretty good,
• 1:40:29
  I mean. That's how it's gonna stay and
• 1:40:30
  customer support. Sounds awesome.
• 1:40:32
  Yeah, we just call them up and then someone's always there and
• 1:40:35
  they try to walk you through it. Yeah, so.
• 1:40:37
  And it is very user friendly. I definitely don't hate the the
• 1:40:42
  program. Yeah, I mean, listen, it's not a
• 1:40:43
  hall tech, but, you know, it's good.
• 1:40:45
  Hall tech is good too, yeah. Big Haltech guy.
• 1:40:49
  I think I prefer Lynx interface, though.
• 1:40:51
  Maybe. I don't know.
• 1:40:52
  I don't fuck with it enough to know, yeah.
• 1:40:54
  I was gonna. Say, is it?
• 1:40:56
  Is it just 'cause? You haven't tried it.
• 1:40:57
  I tried both and something about Lync feels user friendly to me,
• 1:41:04
  but I don't know. What's that?
• 1:41:05
  So everyone, so I can say this for sure, like Lync AM Haltech,
• 1:41:10
  like the very normal basic stand alone ECU companies, they will
• 1:41:15
  do almost the same thing. There's going to be labeled
• 1:41:18
  differently and finding the tables is different.
• 1:41:22
  So once you get used to 1, all of a sudden it becomes easy, and
• 1:41:25
  then if you never mess with another one, you go into it.
• 1:41:28
  You're probably like. Yeah, what the fuck is this?
• 1:41:29
  It's just like Chinese. I can't find anything in here
• 1:41:32
  like something that might be labeled like boost target and
• 1:41:34
  one would be labeled like boot piece peak hit or like boot.
• 1:41:38
  Like something that's completely different.
• 1:41:40
  So like you. You go into the search.
• 1:41:41
  Yeah, you go into the search bar to try to find it and it's not
• 1:41:44
  like can I not do this? And then like you've got to find
• 1:41:47
  it or whatever. But like, luckily my tuner Cleo,
• 1:41:49
  like he's done almost every ECU under the sun and it just makes
• 1:41:53
  my life extremely. Easy.
• 1:41:54
  Why does that name sound familiar?
• 1:41:56
  Cleo He tunes. Everything.
• 1:41:58
  Yeah, I think so. Oh yeah, I think that.
• 1:42:00
  I think that's. Probably.
• 1:42:01
  I bet he doesn't tune Power FC. He does, and he hates it.
• 1:42:04
  See. He will.
• 1:42:05
  They all hate it. He.
• 1:42:06
  Will, why did I buy this, Frankie?
• 1:42:08
  Why did I? Why did I buy this?
• 1:42:10
  They hate us 'cause they ain't us, kid.
• 1:42:12
  I just. Wanted to fucking little control
• 1:42:14
  of Ricky. For what you want to look at
• 1:42:16
  Game Boy while you're driving, that's what it is.
• 1:42:18
  It's not even a Game Boy Color. It's got little.
• 1:42:20
  Bricks like Ricky's? Ricky's.
• 1:42:22
  He doesn't. He doesn't.
• 1:42:23
  Street I just. Need.
• 1:42:24
  To OK. I used to.
• 1:42:25
  I used to be that guy, you know. I'm building another right?
• 1:42:27
  Now that's going to be A streetcar.
• 1:42:29
  Are you feeling OK? Good.
• 1:42:30
  So you're gonna want that Game Boy?
• 1:42:31
  Yeah. No.
• 1:42:32
  I'm not. I could assure you I will not.
• 1:42:34
  The reason why I like is just 'cause I just picture.
• 1:42:36
  When I picture that I'm like, I'm in a fucking 2000, Yeah,
• 1:42:39
  drift car right now. Like I see it.
• 1:42:41
  The wire goes. Somewhere it's a standalone that
• 1:42:43
  does not do standalone things. I needed to give me more fuel,
• 1:42:46
  more fuel if it was. 2001, right now, it'd be a standalone.
• 1:42:50
  Well, back in 2001 you had the SAFCS, so people ran those out.
• 1:42:54
  Because a standalone. Was pretty amazing compared.
• 1:42:56
  To that that's not a standalone and it's.
• 1:42:58
  Time they were. Great.
• 1:42:59
  There you go. It's not 1998 anymore.
• 1:43:02
  You can't say that. It is 2023.
• 1:43:05
  We have technology to do things the right way.
• 1:43:08
  He's right. That's the power of 6.
• 1:43:11
  Power of 6 I. Just I I I just always pictured
• 1:43:14
  it also. Also I got to confer a good
• 1:43:17
  deal. Thank you, Nick.
• 1:43:18
  Oh, you can't. Never.
• 1:43:19
  But how good of a deal is it when you're like 4 motors in?
• 1:43:23
  Ask Tom. I don't know.
• 1:43:25
  He's way more than four. Way more than four.
• 1:43:27
  Way more than four. That dude single handedly drove
• 1:43:31
  the cost of Sr. 20s through the proof.
• 1:43:33
  Do you think so? Do you realistically, in the
• 1:43:36
  tri-state area, you think Tom pumped up the numbers of SRS I?
• 1:43:41
  Don't know. I think in total Tom, I probably
• 1:43:46
  disassembled and destroyed close to 10 SRS between fixing them,
• 1:43:51
  buying them to fix 1I. Need to hear this from Tom,
• 1:43:54
  'cause I don't know. Never.
• 1:43:55
  He'll never agree with anything. He's gonna.
• 1:43:57
  Tell you he blew one motor. Yeah, well, that's well, he blew
• 1:43:59
  the same motor 15 times with four different blocks, seven
• 1:44:02
  different heads. Three different heads.
• 1:44:03
  That's. The only one that the Pistons
• 1:44:05
  melted. Yeah, like the other ones were
• 1:44:06
  all head probably right, Tom. So they broke and you gotta fix
• 1:44:10
  them again. I.
• 1:44:11
  Don't know, man. We always be chirping Tom, and
• 1:44:13
  then Tom hates. I love Tom.
• 1:44:14
  Tom hates you, Yeah. I've heard that, actually.
• 1:44:16
  Yeah, Yeah. From Tom, from Tom, that's.
• 1:44:18
  Crazy. Yeah.
• 1:44:20
  Yeah, he said. Some crazy.
• 1:44:21
  We're gonna have him on the pod and we're gonna fight oh.
• 1:44:23
  He's the man. I met him even before drifting
• 1:44:25
  through BMX. So how do you so how do you know
• 1:44:27
  Frankie? I always ask how do you know
• 1:44:29
  Frankie? How do you know Tom?
• 1:44:31
  All club lose Tom is. Before that, Tom was BMX.
• 1:44:33
  Stage Oh, right, right, right. But yeah, I met a lot of people.
• 1:44:36
  It's fun. Like there's people I know that
• 1:44:37
  I don't remember meeting. But you're just doing the same
• 1:44:40
  thing over and over again. That's us.
• 1:44:42
  People become familiar. Like, I don't remember the first
• 1:44:44
  time I met Frankie. Probably through Justin
• 1:44:45
  Francisco. Yeah, I'm sure it's probably
• 1:44:47
  something like that, but like you just going to the track with
• 1:44:49
  everybody. But realistically, we probably
• 1:44:51
  met before. That because never.
• 1:44:53
  Justin, I don't know when he got into drifting, but it was
• 1:44:55
  absolutely we did. Yeah.
• 1:44:56
  Oh yeah. Yeah.
• 1:44:57
  So. Justin was the person that I saw
• 1:44:59
  where I was like, oh, he's Filipino.
• 1:45:01
  And he'd be doing this shit, too.
• 1:45:02
  That's literally your brother. And Chris.
• 1:45:04
  Chris was like, yeah, we could do this.
• 1:45:06
  We could do this. Yeah, Justin Francisco, he's a
• 1:45:08
  cool guy. That's your double.
• 1:45:09
  Gander, dude, me and Justin. I'd be ever so lucky, man.
• 1:45:12
  Justin is a handsome guy, man. Justin is a handsome guy.
• 1:45:14
  Yeah, he's out in 4. We go to H2O together.
• 1:45:16
  We did so much shit together. That car, what do you have first
• 1:45:20
  that I saw it was a the. S13 with the Jay.
• 1:45:22
  Z with no it was a no. It was a S13 with a 15 front and
• 1:45:26
  it was a red. One That thing was pretty clean.
• 1:45:28
  Too, I was. I remember I saw that and I was
• 1:45:30
  like, what the fuck is this? He actually, I think he had that
• 1:45:34
  he wanted to be a sister's car when she got older and they're
• 1:45:36
  selling it and one of his friends actually bought one of
• 1:45:39
  his friends, actually popped the motor in it and wanted me to
• 1:45:41
  rebuild it at one point in time and I don't know where that car.
• 1:45:44
  Is wait, was that his same car that he drifted?
• 1:45:46
  The black one. No, that's a different.
• 1:45:47
  Car, but it was the same S15. He did an S15 front on a black
• 1:45:51
  cartoon with a Jay-Z in it. Justin, why the?
• 1:45:53
  JDS motoring built. That car I we, me and him had
• 1:45:56
  arguments about it. Oh.
• 1:45:57
  Look look like I don't like it S15 front though on a hatch with
• 1:46:01
  the little wing GT wing on the back.
• 1:46:04
  Yes, donkey styled up. Yeah, it might look.
• 1:46:05
  Like, I mean, I can't really say much.
• 1:46:06
  I have an S14 with an S15 rear end, so oh, you got.
• 1:46:10
  You got one of those things? Yeah, I got the 2F rear, yeah.
• 1:46:13
  Yeah. So there, me and Steve Misko did
• 1:46:16
  this at the same time and there's a reason behind it.
• 1:46:19
  We looked, we were going to do S14.
• 1:46:21
  It's all like this is what we want.
• 1:46:23
  Well, an S15 tail light is probably 1/4 of the cost of a
• 1:46:28
  S14 tail light. And we knew well, you know the
• 1:46:31
  eBay ones, eBay ones, not real ones.
• 1:46:33
  And we knew we're going to be taking these things out left and
• 1:46:35
  right. So we do.
• 1:46:36
  We used to get a set of S15 tail lights from Thailand.
• 1:46:39
  They'd be here within a week for like 130 bucks.
• 1:46:42
  Sounds right. It's great.
• 1:46:43
  It's probably not that anymore. Is it they're like around 200 or
• 1:46:46
  so? Now.
• 1:46:46
  OK, still. Still still cheaper than S14
• 1:46:49
  tail light. Trying to get S14 tail lights
• 1:46:51
  over here. Is and an S14 tail is like.
• 1:46:53
  Yeah, and then you need that the center garnish, too, when you
• 1:46:55
  smack that thing out of it, You know, we did a shade ability.
• 1:47:00
  I like it now, 'cause like, it's my car.
• 1:47:02
  I'm like, I'm used to it, whatever.
• 1:47:03
  I do like it though, but yeah. So you have a, so it's an S14.
• 1:47:06
  Kooky front. With a S15.
• 1:47:08
  With an S15 rear. Yeah, I mean that I would.
• 1:47:11
  I could think way worse looking setups, so.
• 1:47:13
  And it's a S13 coupe with a 14 front.
• 1:47:16
  Literally, that combination might be the only one that is
• 1:47:20
  acceptable mine. Yeah.
• 1:47:21
  Have you seen my car or the reverse?
• 1:47:23
  Have you seen the way the car looks right now and it's
• 1:47:25
  current? Yeah, I well, you showed me it.
• 1:47:27
  I showed. You the new one, which is pretty
• 1:47:29
  sick. Yeah, I like the.
• 1:47:30
  Shiny livery that you had. That one was sick.
• 1:47:32
  I like the color like it looked pretty cool.
• 1:47:35
  Fuck if you like, like the car is like a hole.
• 1:47:38
  Like, you're the style guy. So I got to ask you.
• 1:47:40
  Oh, you. Don't want my.
• 1:47:40
  Like look. Look it up real quick, Look it
• 1:47:42
  up and let me know. Oh God.
• 1:47:44
  And just remember, it is, you know, it's an FD car.
• 1:47:45
  It's not going to be slammed on the ground.
• 1:47:47
  Ricky's like roast my car. Yeah, Roasting what you.
• 1:47:49
  Got oh God, don't do this. Whole.
• 1:47:52
  Frankie doesn't like the moment. It's a little high off the
• 1:47:54
  ground. I know that's I told him the
• 1:47:56
  other way. I remember it's an FD car, like
• 1:47:57
  they need clearance. I literally, yeah.
• 1:47:59
  But well. Everything I'm looking at right
• 1:48:00
  now, you got no bumper on well. You know, keep looking.
• 1:48:03
  Well, no, I haven't ran a rear bumper almost all year.
• 1:48:06
  This year, because I couldn't. There's a big problem right
• 1:48:08
  there. Well, yeah, he get that.
• 1:48:10
  He get that. Oh, here's a good photo of it.
• 1:48:13
  And the front bumper is not painted, but let's pretend it
• 1:48:16
  is. But do you like it?
• 1:48:18
  I mean, the car doesn't look bad.
• 1:48:19
  That's crazy 'cause it's got a KBD bumper inside Persona.
• 1:48:21
  Whoa, I didn't say the bumper. Did you like KBD?
• 1:48:24
  I didn't say the bumper. You said it's not pain, but
• 1:48:26
  looks good as a whole. I said it doesn't look bad.
• 1:48:28
  You said it doesn't look bad as a whole, so you just submit it
• 1:48:30
  to liking cars got KBD. And then I zoomed in.
• 1:48:34
  So you like it? So you do.
• 1:48:35
  You like it. You like it, right?
• 1:48:36
  So you like you like you like crabby patties, don't you?
• 1:48:39
  Squidward fucking got you. It's.
• 1:48:41
  Weird. You never have a rear bumper.
• 1:48:42
  I thought they were made out of play.
• 1:48:43
  DoH. No.
• 1:48:45
  So the S15 rear bumper is fiberglass because they don't
• 1:48:48
  make one. So when that thing goes off, it
• 1:48:50
  gets destroyed every time. OK, fair.
• 1:48:54
  Enough the word. Destroyed has been used at this
• 1:48:56
  all. Right, let me go to a photo
• 1:48:57
  where it's actually painted. Yeah, keep looking back through
• 1:49:01
  a couple photos. So the so, the so.
• 1:49:03
  That's KBD. What?
• 1:49:04
  2F? Fucking knock off shit 'cause
• 1:49:06
  that's what it is, yeah, basically.
• 1:49:09
  Can't he just make his own shit? God damn it, Frankie.
• 1:49:12
  I mean. Point.
• 1:49:14
  He does make his own shit, 'cause he usually never looks
• 1:49:16
  like the actual thing he's repping.
• 1:49:18
  But this actually does look like 2 FI.
• 1:49:23
  Don't know. I mean, it doesn't look too
• 1:49:24
  floppy right there, you know? Yeah.
• 1:49:28
  Don't don't look at me, dude. What the fuck?
• 1:49:30
  His side skirts look like they're together.
• 1:49:34
  I I do. I think the livery is cool.
• 1:49:38
  And you said you had someone in in Europe designing, right?
• 1:49:41
  Yeah. He's from Europe now.
• 1:49:42
  He lives in Canada. Joker.
• 1:49:44
  This design is on Instagram. He kills it for designing stuff.
• 1:49:48
  He is sick. Car looks good.
• 1:49:50
  I like when I like when the pro cars look good, 'cause then it's
• 1:49:53
  like. Yeah, which is basically never.
• 1:49:54
  So the red is sick. I liked when it was blue, the
• 1:49:56
  best my when the car was blue. I like the red a lot.
• 1:50:00
  Because the red back, the blue is on there.
• 1:50:01
  The red is sick, don't get me wrong, but I for whatever.
• 1:50:03
  I like the red more. Really.
• 1:50:05
  Yeah, I like. The blue.
• 1:50:05
  I just thought the blue is dope. I like that the red transitions
• 1:50:08
  the black in the back I think it looks.
• 1:50:10
  Well, you. So is the blue.
• 1:50:12
  Yeah. Well, you know why Ricky did
• 1:50:14
  that? Because it's a smart thing to
• 1:50:16
  do. Yeah, because it might blow a
• 1:50:17
  part of rear panel. She gave it to Taylor and she
• 1:50:20
  wraps it black again for me and gives it back and tells me I'm
• 1:50:22
  an idiot and I'm just going my way.
• 1:50:24
  Sick. Happy can you how do how do you
• 1:50:28
  vinyl wrap the KBD bumper? Apparently it's a lot more of a
• 1:50:32
  pain in the ass, but it does work.
• 1:50:34
  I haven't done it because I don't wrap cars, but Taylor has
• 1:50:38
  done it and it looks good. I'm I would be concerned with
• 1:50:41
  it, like getting wrinkly. No good.
• 1:50:45
  Pretty good. I feel like I can't find this
• 1:50:46
  car in blue. It's back there.
• 1:50:48
  It was two years ago. OK, what?
• 1:50:50
  Are you going to do next? So you're going to compete now?
• 1:50:54
  Oh yeah. Oh, I'm planning on going back
• 1:50:56
  on FD. I'm like waiting.
• 1:50:57
  I'm in like a waiting list, kind of a limbo thing for FD, which
• 1:50:59
  kind of sucks, but I'm gearing up like I'm going back to FD if
• 1:51:02
  I don't get an FDI. Have plenty of stuff planned I
• 1:51:04
  can do anyway. The grid lights, fuel fest, like
• 1:51:07
  local E Town gamblers, like I have a bunch of stuff.
• 1:51:09
  Yeah, it sounds like no matter what, I have stuff I'm doing
• 1:51:12
  this year for drifting. I think that's cool that you're
• 1:51:14
  still putting time towards normal.
• 1:51:16
  Yeah. Oh yeah, Grid light.
• 1:51:17
  Normal drifting. Sick.
• 1:51:19
  It's looks fucking nice. Lime Rock.
• 1:51:21
  Oh my God, that shit. Well, now you have a cartoon
• 1:51:25
  that's just gonna be fucking. I found it in blue.
• 1:51:28
  You like it? It looks good.
• 1:51:30
  I I don't like the neon in the vinyl.
• 1:51:33
  The yellow if that wasn't. There, so that, so the blue.
• 1:51:37
  All the vinyl was reflective. Oh, OK, so that's all
• 1:51:39
  reflective. Yeah, yeah, the blue looks
• 1:51:42
  pretty cool too. KBD gotta go though.
• 1:51:46
  So when it was blue, it wasn't KBD.
• 1:51:48
  OK, that makes more sense. Why?
• 1:51:50
  You like it less, right? Because it looks a little bit
• 1:51:52
  better. You said you're like.
• 1:51:53
  You're like the KB, he's going to go and it was actually 2F.
• 1:51:57
  Gotcha. S No no I.
• 1:52:00
  Think you need a wing? Though.
• 1:52:02
  You can't have a wing. Remember, you can have a wing.
• 1:52:04
  You could do like a little trunk wing or whatever.
• 1:52:05
  You could do a wing too. It just can't be on a bank
• 1:52:07
  track. Then you make you take it off.
• 1:52:09
  Wing has to come off. The end plates and I think the
• 1:52:12
  actual wing itself. So when they started doing that
• 1:52:14
  rule, that's when Formula D became the dumbest shit I ever
• 1:52:16
  heard of the entire. Life.
• 1:52:17
  I don't know. Just for the record, I'm sure
• 1:52:19
  that there was probably something that happened where
• 1:52:21
  catch fence and yeah. They probably caught a fence and
• 1:52:23
  someone had to pay money and then they're like, Oh yeah.
• 1:52:26
  So Speaking of catch cars ugly. I watched Derek Madison almost
• 1:52:30
  die a couple years ago in FD in Seattle from a wing No.
• 1:52:34
  So the way they held that track holds the banners to the wall is
• 1:52:38
  the banners go down, they put screws to it and there's like 2
• 1:52:41
  by fours on the backside of the fence.
• 1:52:43
  So somehow that two by four came under the fence, went into his
• 1:52:47
  car through his window at speed, hit his full containment seat,
• 1:52:52
  bounced off, shattered the rear glass and the quarter glass and
• 1:52:55
  went out the back of the car in competition.
• 1:52:57
  And he lost because of it. Oh.
• 1:52:59
  My God damn it. How did it come off?
• 1:53:02
  It's just so that track, there's so many banners on the fence
• 1:53:05
  that when you go past, your cars are pushing so much air.
• 1:53:08
  The fence like rocks like you can.
• 1:53:10
  You can see it visibly while it's happening.
• 1:53:12
  And it just popped. Off and it just popped off.
• 1:53:14
  Came in his car. Freak thing.
• 1:53:15
  God. Imagine some crazy shit.
• 1:53:17
  That was the battle before me and Mike in top 32.
• 1:53:19
  I'd be shitting myself if in your.
• 1:53:22
  So we're sitting there, we can't.
• 1:53:24
  We could see it, but we can't see what's going on.
• 1:53:27
  And then, you know, people are coming over the radios and
• 1:53:28
  telling us, and they're like, Oh, well, something flew into
• 1:53:30
  Deck's car, broke his window, They got to repair, they got to
• 1:53:32
  pick glass up or whatever. So, like, OK, but you go back
• 1:53:34
  and watch it. You're like, dude, like if he
• 1:53:36
  didn't have a full containment seat, it would have hit him
• 1:53:38
  square in the face. Well, we got tech, we got tech,
• 1:53:42
  yeah, but we also asked, we had, we opened up a bunch of
• 1:53:45
  questions. So just be aware that these
• 1:53:48
  could be anything. Hit me with him, somebody, Chris
• 1:53:50
  Knapp said. He was going to fire a bunch in
• 1:53:52
  there. Oh God.
• 1:53:54
  And I know Chris Knapp can ask him.
• 1:53:55
  Questions. He does have a few in here.
• 1:53:59
  Oh, I can't wait to get to 1 of Chris's.
• 1:54:02
  Fuck. OK, well, I'm going to read the
• 1:54:04
  names, because Frankie doesn't like reading the names.
• 1:54:06
  It's too. It's too.
• 1:54:07
  This is from the real JDM. Will.
• 1:54:08
  What's up? Will I know he's an?
• 1:54:09
  Willy name. That's an easy name.
• 1:54:10
  That's Willy Ortega. Yeah, of course.
• 1:54:11
  He's the man. Yeah, he is the man.
• 1:54:13
  Big. Chef, Big chef.
• 1:54:14
  Oh, man. Big chef, big chef.
• 1:54:16
  What's up? What's up, Will?
• 1:54:17
  He's in the chat. He's always in the chat.
• 1:54:18
  Ricky. Single handedly.
• 1:54:21
  OK. I don't know if this is a
• 1:54:22
  question, sorry Ricky, single handedly depleted all 240
• 1:54:26
  aftermarket fenders in the East Coast in less than a year.
• 1:54:29
  True story, why? Metal ones, Metal.
• 1:54:32
  No, no, no fiberglass ones. It was when I was running the
• 1:54:34
  S13 a bunch and we had like little aluminum, just flat stock
• 1:54:38
  that we would use for the bottom Fender mount.
• 1:54:40
  Yeah, and you know, the front bummer would come off.
• 1:54:42
  So then only hold the fenders on with that.
• 1:54:43
  And Frankie can attest to this, that when we used to drive, like
• 1:54:47
  when all the cars were white, the Flipsco crew.
• 1:54:48
  Oh my God. No.
• 1:54:50
  Why? Why?
• 1:54:50
  Why? Why we?
• 1:54:51
  Would. The fenders flapping the.
• 1:54:53
  Fenders are flat and they would snap off and they'd just go over
• 1:54:55
  and then that's done. He'd.
• 1:54:56
  That's a little bit of. The Fender but put it on.
• 1:54:58
  Dude, when I was talking about them, like yeah, you guys drove
• 1:54:59
  hard. That's the only image in my
• 1:55:00
  brain. Yeah, like when your fenders
• 1:55:02
  flapping in the air and. Then door to door.
• 1:55:04
  Yeah, it didn't matter what we did because we were they were
• 1:55:07
  fiberglass so didn't have you bolted them self tapping.
• 1:55:09
  Whatever. They're going to come a little
• 1:55:10
  Ding into someone's door or wheel boomed on fenders coming
• 1:55:14
  off. Because we wouldn't stop.
• 1:55:15
  We would not stop till our tires were corded.
• 1:55:17
  Back they were just, they were just banging every entire time,
• 1:55:21
  like literally being. Whole track.
• 1:55:23
  I know what this Fender look, yeah.
• 1:55:25
  So when? So they do that when they're
• 1:55:26
  fiberglass. And they just trying to take a.
• 1:55:28
  Later, he had gone. All the fenders.
• 1:55:31
  His car is just trying to take flight.
• 1:55:33
  But that's back. When you can get Origin, you
• 1:55:35
  could get a. You're going.
• 1:55:36
  To be able to get some Origin fenders soon because we just
• 1:55:39
  ordered way too much of it and it's coming next week, so.
• 1:55:42
  Hey wait, my buddy Nick is looking for his fenders.
• 1:55:46
  Yeah, he's his are in there they are.
• 1:55:47
  Yeah. All right, Nick, There you go.
• 1:55:49
  Stop fucking texting me about them.
• 1:55:52
  This one's from SR20, Bobby. What's up, Bobby?
• 1:55:54
  Bobby, do pit bikes run underwater?
• 1:55:58
  Oof, Funny story. They don't.
• 1:56:00
  Oh no, No, they don't. That's what I figured.
• 1:56:03
  So Bobby bought a brand new pit bike.
• 1:56:07
  I saw KLX 110. Nice one.
• 1:56:09
  Brand new, beautiful first day. He had it.
• 1:56:12
  I don't have a pit bike. Brian Hop brand new or bought a
• 1:56:16
  brand new pit bike from his friend that only had like a
• 1:56:18
  couple hours on it. We're all going to go out and
• 1:56:21
  ride pit bikes. Brian's like, I'm going home by
• 1:56:22
  while he's working. You could take my pit bike, use
• 1:56:24
  it. He's like, you know, just don't
• 1:56:25
  don't fuck it up. I'm like, dude, no problem.
• 1:56:26
  It'll be good. Then we take these things in the
• 1:56:28
  woods. We know where there's like a
• 1:56:29
  lake, there's a trail around this whole lake.
• 1:56:30
  We're out there, whatever. Me and Bobby get to this point
• 1:56:33
  where there's like a kind of like a no, I wouldn't it's not a
• 1:56:36
  river. Like we could see to the bottom.
• 1:56:37
  It was super Clearwater. Like, oh, this is only like, you
• 1:56:40
  know, maybe a foot or a foot and a half deep or whatever.
• 1:56:42
  OK, hold on, hold on, hold on. A foot is still pretty deep for
• 1:56:46
  a 110. No, not really.
• 1:56:48
  No. 12 inches, dude. Dude, that that's not OK.
• 1:56:53
  Continue. Continue.
• 1:56:54
  It was not a foot deep, OK, I didn't say spoiler alert, this
• 1:56:59
  thing was up to the gas tank, so me and Bobby.
• 1:57:01
  When did you find out? When it was.
• 1:57:04
  Too late when it was too late. So me and Bobby, we're side by
• 1:57:07
  side. We're on KLX One 10s.
• 1:57:09
  Neither of us are small people. Like, thinking back to this, it
• 1:57:12
  probably looked so ridiculous what we were doing with these
• 1:57:15
  pit bikes. And we're like, Oh yeah, we're
• 1:57:17
  going to go through it. We want to get over this little
• 1:57:18
  sand section. We're both like 123 Rev these
• 1:57:21
  things up, dump the clutch, go through bond lock motors locked
• 1:57:25
  up instantaneously. We walk them out, we're like,
• 1:57:28
  damn, we're like, quite far from home.
• 1:57:32
  These motors are locked up my so the Calyx one 10s have like a
• 1:57:36
  remote starts you know to kick the bike so mine doesn't work.
• 1:57:39
  Bobby's works. There was like these kids that
• 1:57:42
  were just out there they had tools.
• 1:57:44
  We took the spark plug out. We're like Bobby's cranking this
• 1:57:46
  thing over forever. His won't start.
• 1:57:47
  We get mine out. I'm like kick trying to kick
• 1:57:50
  start this thing till I'm like dead won't start whatever.
• 1:57:53
  We end up throwing them in the back of the pick up.
• 1:57:55
  Bobby actually got his started, rode his home, but like it was
• 1:57:58
  pissing oil out, like it was filled.
• 1:58:00
  The crankcase was filled with water.
• 1:58:01
  I'm actually happy I didn't ride Brian's bike back and I got it
• 1:58:04
  picked up. And then I actually had my
• 1:58:06
  friend that works on motorcycles, Flim.
• 1:58:08
  He rebuilt the motor cuz you know, I messed it up.
• 1:58:10
  So I had he got a brand new motor.
• 1:58:12
  Out of that sounded all fun as fuck until disaster.
• 1:58:17
  Oh, it was amazing. It's so much fun.
• 1:58:19
  Because I'm. Riding the pit bike through the
• 1:58:20
  woods are so much fun. I fucking want.
• 1:58:22
  That it is so fun, dude, I need. It Fuck, I get one with you.
• 1:58:25
  Carl, But yes, Bobby, they do not run underwater.
• 1:58:28
  We need them. For sure not.
• 1:58:30
  We took. I just.
• 1:58:31
  I wanted. I wanted a big dirt bike.
• 1:58:33
  Dude, get a KLX 110. They're bad ass.
• 1:58:36
  That's. Just a mini bike.
• 1:58:37
  There. So it's a, it's so the KLX,
• 1:58:39
  there's two different versions of it.
• 1:58:40
  One of them is like, meant for a child that doesn't have a
• 1:58:43
  clutch. And then there's one that has a
• 1:58:45
  clutch that has like way beefier suspension.
• 1:58:47
  Like they know that bigger people are gonna take these
• 1:58:49
  things and abuse them. And that's what, like, everyone
• 1:58:51
  bought. Yeah, he was sick.
• 1:58:53
  How much are? They 3 grand.
• 1:58:55
  Goodbye. There's.
• 1:58:57
  What do you mean? There's a spot.
• 1:58:59
  Sell that thing right there. That thing's probably worth like
• 1:59:02
  10 or 15 bucks. Be a down.
• 1:59:03
  Payment, all right. There's there's a spot down
• 1:59:06
  there that I know I can just hit one wide open and just.
• 1:59:09
  Oh, everywhere 3. Grand for a mini bike though.
• 1:59:12
  Like I want, I want like a yeah. But you dude, you could finance
• 1:59:14
  it and it's like, I knew. You were going to see that dude
• 1:59:17
  I have. Like 55 bucks a month.
• 1:59:18
  Listen, winners, quick change. I'm not financing this.
• 1:59:22
  Oh. Yeah, no, listen, if I go there,
• 1:59:23
  I'm just buying it. Like obviously I'm, I think I'm
• 1:59:25
  going to buy. So I think we could buy one
• 1:59:27
  because there is like a pit bike party coming up and I'm just
• 1:59:30
  going to buy one so I can have my.
• 1:59:32
  Own Carl is getting full the. Fuck.
• 1:59:33
  What the fuck, Frankie? You don't get us advice to any
• 1:59:36
  of this shit, man. That's.
• 1:59:38
  Going to this party. Like Bobby, Jake, Chris Snap,
• 1:59:41
  the whole crew, Steve, Brian, Hop.
• 1:59:44
  All right, let's get on. Fucking.
• 1:59:47
  Dude, Bobby, you in the chat to you and like, these guys want to
• 1:59:49
  come like? Bro, I've never experienced
• 1:59:51
  anything like that in my life. I would get giddy like.
• 1:59:53
  So right down from Bobby's house, if you leave Bobby's
• 1:59:55
  house and make a left, there's a pit down there we ride at and
• 1:59:57
  stuff like that. And if you go to the right and
• 1:59:58
  go down and look I. See the videos I fucking get,
• 2:00:01
  I'm watching and I'm like these bastards.
• 2:00:03
  I have. So much fun.
• 2:00:04
  It's sick. Bobby is sick on a pit bike.
• 2:00:07
  Why did I? Why did I feel like he would be,
• 2:00:09
  though? Oh yeah.
• 2:00:10
  Probably ride him for a long time, no?
• 2:00:12
  Literally, he's pretty good. But that that sounds so fun.
• 2:00:15
  I need a pit. We need.
• 2:00:16
  We need pit bikes. Dude, they're badass and they're
• 2:00:18
  good track vehicles. Like on the.
• 2:00:19
  Track. I'm tired of walking.
• 2:00:21
  That's why I want. 1. I'm tired of walking and I know
• 2:00:25
  Princess is too, Malcolm, so you should buy one too.
• 2:00:29
  She'll. Bust ass so bad on that thing.
• 2:00:31
  Princess would love that. Princess is Malcolm's
• 2:00:33
  girlfriend. Princess would love that shit.
• 2:00:34
  She will her. Is there a real name?
• 2:00:36
  Princess. Her middle name is Princess.
• 2:00:38
  Yeah. Really crazy, actually.
• 2:00:40
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 2:00:42
  So when we call our Princess around new people, they're
• 2:00:43
  always like what I was. Thinking you were talking about
• 2:00:47
  a dog or something. Like people named their dog
• 2:00:51
  Princess. Like, I didn't know.
• 2:00:52
  Like, you know, no disrespect, you know, you hit me with a
• 2:00:54
  Princess like that and be like, oh, like that's an animal of
• 2:00:57
  some. Sort she is an animal sometimes.
• 2:01:00
  Sometimes in the right setting. Crazy.
• 2:01:03
  But no. I want AI want a fucking pit
• 2:01:04
  bike and we we we lost. We thought we were going to lose
• 2:01:07
  my Ethan's Tacoma. We I took them out Wheeling and
• 2:01:11
  somewhere thing like Lacy or something like that big ass pit
• 2:01:14
  down there down. In Chatsworth and stuff like.
• 2:01:16
  That, yeah, yeah. By.
• 2:01:17
  The power lines. Yeah, been there.
• 2:01:18
  And then Ethan floated his shit. But if we had pit bikes?
• 2:01:24
  We could have just, you could park out.
• 2:01:26
  We could have just parked the. Trucks, well, pit bikes aren't
• 2:01:28
  good in deep sand. Like they're their wheels are
• 2:01:29
  too small. Like they're not meant for that.
• 2:01:31
  I just want to fucking just they're.
• 2:01:32
  Sick Wheeling them. You buy one.
• 2:01:34
  Let's go. Dude, I'm down.
• 2:01:36
  Fuck. We'll talk after this.
• 2:01:38
  What's this one? Jacob Jordan, do you still ride
• 2:01:40
  BMX? Valid question, I was actually.
• 2:01:42
  Every once in a while I do, yeah, so not as much.
• 2:01:45
  Yeah, I have the same bike still.
• 2:01:46
  I actually just went and rode Woodward Park City when we were
• 2:01:49
  out there for Utah. What the fuck?
• 2:01:51
  Yeah, so. Pat Laughlin.
• 2:01:53
  He's one of my boys. His name is Big Daddy GMX guy
• 2:01:57
  and he's a local pro out there, so I hit him up.
• 2:01:59
  We'll go out there, we'll ride to skate parks and stuff like
• 2:02:01
  that. Sick.
• 2:02:01
  It's a good time. That's awesome.
• 2:02:02
  Hit the 3rd jump. They have like big downhill
• 2:02:04
  trails and stuff. What scared me about the bike
• 2:02:06
  every time is that it is quite large compared to a skateboard.
• 2:02:10
  Yeah, I mean, if you fall, you have to throw it.
• 2:02:12
  That's the thing. Like you bikes will bounce and
• 2:02:14
  go. So if you know you're going
• 2:02:15
  down, you need to wing that thing and then try to like spot
• 2:02:18
  your. Big thing to just be like, yeah,
• 2:02:19
  poop on a skateboard. Again, it's a yeah, it's kind of
• 2:02:22
  kick it away, kick it gone. Yeah, but if you land on a
• 2:02:24
  skateboard like you, you're. Unless you Pogo this.
• 2:02:26
  Yeah, the old credit card, yeah, Yeah, the old credit card
• 2:02:29
  treatment. Yeah, what's wrong, Malcolm?
• 2:02:31
  Has Malcolm done that? Felt that when you said it.
• 2:02:33
  You've done it. No, but I've almost.
• 2:02:35
  Everyone's done that. I sat.
• 2:02:37
  Like, not a big skateboard. Wait.
• 2:02:38
  Wait, wait, wait. I like sat on it.
• 2:02:40
  I got a. Picture I got to show Frankie
• 2:02:41
  right now because the other day I know Frankie.
• 2:02:45
  We had a we always had these conversations about
• 2:02:46
  skateboarding and stuff. I don't know why none of us were
• 2:02:49
  ever really good at it from what I'm getting.
• 2:02:51
  I'm not I. Would OK, but look at this stair
• 2:02:54
  set by my house. Yo, I could hit that.
• 2:02:56
  No, you can't. Stair sets like that is what we
• 2:02:58
  kill on the lime Scooters when we go to PRI.
• 2:03:01
  Did you? Guys, see them?
• 2:03:02
  Oh, I didn't. See, you see the video?
• 2:03:03
  I was like all of us were out. Chelsea didn't know if it
• 2:03:05
  videoed us racing down the parking garage.
• 2:03:08
  I saw you guys. Mobbing.
• 2:03:09
  Mobbing. This four set or whatever.
• 2:03:12
  This is because there's a story that Frankie has.
• 2:03:13
  I could hit where? On a skateboard?
• 2:03:15
  Yeah. Dude, dude, cats.
• 2:03:17
  Way this is you're gonna get credit carded.
• 2:03:19
  I'm probably hurt myself. You're gonna do the split thing
• 2:03:21
  where you land your one foot on man.
• 2:03:25
  Bye bye, groin. That's.
• 2:03:26
  A three set, right it's. 4 and the rail doesn't even have
• 2:03:29
  fucking skate stoppers. On it for for now.
• 2:03:31
  You're pushing my limits a little.
• 2:03:33
  For I saw this, I walked out of the store, saw this stair set
• 2:03:37
  and immediately thought of Frankie because he said this
• 2:03:39
  story on the pod of him injuring himself on like a.
• 2:03:41
  Tiny stair. My friend got me to inline
• 2:03:43
  rollerblade. I bought these rollerblades.
• 2:03:44
  I was like, I was like, all right, cool, I'll try it out.
• 2:03:46
  I could see you being a rollerblader, right?
• 2:03:48
  You look like a like the long flowing.
• 2:03:49
  Yeah, I thought I could. Be too Going around the skate
• 2:03:52
  park looking like AT Rex with your arms out like this because
• 2:03:54
  you're trying to balance yourself.
• 2:03:55
  Oh yeah. So I was like, wow, that's a
• 2:03:57
  three set. Or I think it was a two or a
• 2:03:59
  three set and I was. Like two sets, It's like you
• 2:04:01
  could. You just roll off of it.
• 2:04:02
  It's literally like rolling off of.
• 2:04:03
  It firecracker down it. Took me all day, but I did.
• 2:04:06
  It. Dude, I I did a A3 stair when I
• 2:04:09
  was younger and that split thing happened to me.
• 2:04:11
  Never did a stair set. Ever.
• 2:04:13
  Again. Oh no.
• 2:04:14
  Way. But like a normal gap at a skate
• 2:04:15
  park, I can. I can do.
• 2:04:16
  But stairs for some reason. That shit, you know, No shot.
• 2:04:20
  Hurt. Ow.
• 2:04:21
  God damn. Lachlan asks who can name all
• 2:04:23
  the planets in order first? Not me.
• 2:04:26
  Oh. In order no shot.
• 2:04:29
  No, but there was. Still considered a planet.
• 2:04:33
  It was in this room, yes. Yeah, cuz we're older.
• 2:04:36
  We're. You guys have different
• 2:04:38
  textbooks. Yeah.
• 2:04:39
  Actually I was just gas, but there was an acronym that.
• 2:04:45
  Yeah, there was. I don't remember that thing.
• 2:04:47
  That thing is way out of my. Mind Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 2:04:49
  I. Remember that.
• 2:04:50
  Please excuse my dear Aunt Sally.
• 2:04:52
  Yeah, dude. OK, that's how I.
• 2:04:53
  Wait. Come on, let's try.
• 2:04:54
  Let's try. What do you mean name the
• 2:04:56
  planets? I can't fucking name more than
• 2:04:57
  five planets. Well, let's do this.
• 2:04:59
  I can name, I can probably name the planets, but not in.
• 2:05:01
  Order. Yeah, well, let's do that first.
• 2:05:03
  I'm with Ricky. Let's do that first.
• 2:05:06
  First one, I didn't know there was going to be.
• 2:05:07
  A Earth, Mars, Saturn, Venus, Uranus.
• 2:05:13
  AU. Pluto.
• 2:05:15
  Jupiter. Jupiter.
• 2:05:16
  Yeah. How many more are there?
• 2:05:17
  How about 7:00? I don't know how many there
• 2:05:19
  actually is. I could be maximum eight, I
• 2:05:20
  think. How about 7?
• 2:05:22
  I'd be missing. Something Mars, Saturn, Uranus,
• 2:05:24
  Pluto, Venus. Come on.
• 2:05:26
  Venus, Jupiter. Saturn.
• 2:05:29
  Jupiter. That's eight.
• 2:05:30
  That's all there is. Is there more?
• 2:05:33
  There's got to be more though. You know that's that, right?
• 2:05:35
  There, you know that Aliens. Earth.
• 2:05:38
  Oh. There's definitely more than
• 2:05:39
  that. There's sure, but in, you know
• 2:05:41
  our. Our solar system.
• 2:05:43
  Any more than that, Malcolm. Mercury is not a Mercury is a
• 2:05:45
  planet. Oh, that is.
• 2:05:46
  Yes. OK.
• 2:05:47
  Is it the sun? No, the sun is a big.
• 2:05:48
  Star, come on, man. Fuck, I can tell you Jupiter is
• 2:05:52
  the largest planet. OK, Big Dog.
• 2:05:54
  Yep. And I can tell you, Saturn's got
• 2:05:56
  a shit ton of rings around it. Yep, Yeah, talk to him.
• 2:06:00
  Mars has water red I I can tell you that.
• 2:06:04
  Venus was an Earth like planet at one point, but it's basically
• 2:06:08
  what happens after global warming.
• 2:06:10
  So what we will be Yes, eventually.
• 2:06:13
  And a couple million, a few million, a few billion years.
• 2:06:15
  It's basically just gas. There's like no way to really
• 2:06:18
  survive on that planet, but it could have been like an Earth
• 2:06:21
  like planet. Yeah, Pluto apparently is just a
• 2:06:23
  bunch of gas. So it's like Malcolm, OK,
• 2:06:27
  Mercury is blue, but I don't know a damn thing about Mercury
• 2:06:30
  other than it's full of. Floating water.
• 2:06:32
  I I don't think you can live on Mercury.
• 2:06:33
  I think it's it's. I don't know.
• 2:06:35
  I. Don't know much about Mercury.
• 2:06:36
  OK, now let's think of the Order, guys.
• 2:06:39
  I know Earth is what Earth is the third from the sun, I
• 2:06:44
  believe I. I never knew this.
• 2:06:45
  I know Pluto is the last. Yes, we all know that.
• 2:06:48
  So that's eight, right? So I didn't.
• 2:06:50
  Even know? That 12345678.
• 2:06:54
  OK, so Pluto is 8. Well, technically, I mean, I
• 2:06:57
  know there's an order cause like everything circles within each
• 2:06:59
  other around the sun. Yeah, but so at 1.1, might not
• 2:07:03
  be in order anymore. Are we just talking like closest
• 2:07:05
  to furthest? Is that no, there's there's a
• 2:07:06
  closest to furthest of the sun, yeah.
• 2:07:09
  I had one of those little I'm literally thinking spins around.
• 2:07:12
  Earth. Earth is the 2nd or the 3rd?
• 2:07:14
  I'm not sure. I'm going to just say third.
• 2:07:15
  Let's just. I'm afraid you have the answer
• 2:07:16
  here, so I'll let you just. OK, yeah, let's let's do this.
• 2:07:19
  Don't look at it. Fuck you looking at.
• 2:07:21
  I'm not fucking guessing. You're Cat.
• 2:07:23
  You're bugging out. Come on, where you think Mars
• 2:07:25
  is? I'm thinking Mars is the 4th
• 2:07:27
  planet. I just.
• 2:07:28
  Fucking dude just. The 2nd or the 1st I mean we
• 2:07:30
  just. Go, there we go.
• 2:07:31
  No, it's I think it's pretty far.
• 2:07:32
  We sent because we sent satellites there, but like
• 2:07:34
  they're like this is the furthest we've ever sent one.
• 2:07:38
  What do you say it's? At. 4 going 4.
• 2:07:40
  OK. I'll go four.
• 2:07:41
  That's. Fine, because it's got to be
• 2:07:42
  right there, is that. Right, well.
• 2:07:43
  Right with. Four, don't give me that answer
• 2:07:45
  because I'll know everything. Then give me a side eye, you
• 2:07:47
  know? Venus is I'm going to get this
• 2:07:51
  so fucking wrong right now. God damn it.
• 2:07:54
  I think Uranus is sixed. I think Uranus is far.
• 2:07:56
  Out there, Chris saying this is painful, guys.
• 2:07:58
  Chris, we didn't pay. Frankie is the only one.
• 2:08:01
  Really. You're.
• 2:08:02
  The most recent one out of high school.
• 2:08:03
  Chris Knapp, Chris Knapp, he said.
• 2:08:05
  This is painful. Guys up, guys.
• 2:08:08
  Got his phone out right Now. He knows.
• 2:08:09
  The answer? This is this is obvious.
• 2:08:11
  I don't know why. Your fucking.
• 2:08:15
  I your How do they not know? Your Chris impression hurts me
• 2:08:18
  sometimes because weirdly you get it in like some of the
• 2:08:23
  words, but. What's the 1st?
• 2:08:26
  One next to the sun, dude. What the fuck?
• 2:08:28
  I'm telling you, I'm not the person to, yeah.
• 2:08:31
  I don't know. Oh my God.
• 2:08:33
  Venus too. Fuck it.
• 2:08:34
  This is the stuff in in grade school where instead of.
• 2:08:37
  Mercury. I'm gonna say Mercury.
• 2:08:39
  Fuck it. I wanted him to teach me how to
• 2:08:40
  do taxes like I wanted. I would have rather learned
• 2:08:43
  that. So I didn't want to learn that
• 2:08:45
  until I got out. And then I was like, damn, I
• 2:08:46
  don't know shit about. This anything about surviving in
• 2:08:48
  the world? What the hell?
• 2:08:49
  But I know PEMDAS. I know PEMDAS.
• 2:08:51
  Thank God. All right, I got it.
• 2:08:53
  I know you already got it's way wrong.
• 2:08:55
  This is literally just off the cuff.
• 2:08:57
  Fucking What's your Mercury? What is it, Mercury?
• 2:09:00
  Fuck you. I fucking knew it #2 Venus.
• 2:09:05
  Not feeling good about it. Actually, I'm going off somebody
• 2:09:07
  in the chat. Let me look.
• 2:09:08
  Let's not do that. We're going off.
• 2:09:10
  With somebody else's hands Is it Chris Knapp?
• 2:09:14
  No, no. It's somebody else.
• 2:09:16
  Black kitsune. OK, all right.
• 2:09:18
  So you what did you say next, Frankie?
• 2:09:20
  I said Venus, but I have a feeling it's Earth, no?
• 2:09:22
  No, no. Go with what you wrote down all.
• 2:09:23
  Right. OK.
• 2:09:24
  No, I'm not. Yeah.
• 2:09:25
  Venus. Yeah, I got Mercury Venus.
• 2:09:27
  Yes. OK, Earth.
• 2:09:29
  Yes. All right, Mars.
• 2:09:32
  Yes, Uranus. No.
• 2:09:36
  That's how you pronounce it, too.
• 2:09:37
  Yeah. All right.
• 2:09:37
  Give me one more shot on that one.
• 2:09:40
  Yeah. See, this is where it gets
• 2:09:42
  blurry for me. Not the first.
• 2:09:44
  Four. No, it it's Jupiter, Saturn.
• 2:09:47
  Jupiter. Jupiter.
• 2:09:48
  OK, then Uranus, then Uranus. Saturn.
• 2:09:54
  Correct. Uranus.
• 2:09:55
  Pluto. Wait, did we forget about
• 2:09:58
  Neptune? Oh.
• 2:10:01
  There are 9. Planets that that sounds right.
• 2:10:04
  That does sound right. Yeah, OK Or whatever.
• 2:10:06
  I got the first few, that's all that matters.
• 2:10:08
  Anyway, I'm not gonna go to any other ones so.
• 2:10:11
  I don't think we're going to any, I think.
• 2:10:12
  We're going to Mars? Nah, Nah.
• 2:10:14
  We're. Going to Mars?
• 2:10:15
  This guy you just outed yourself.
• 2:10:17
  You are an alien, yeah. I don't know.
• 2:10:20
  I'm. Not going to any of them.
• 2:10:21
  I'm not going to any other of them anyway.
• 2:10:23
  Yeah, I'm only going to these first.
• 2:10:24
  Two, do you know? The order of them.
• 2:10:27
  This guy's a fucking. Alien.
• 2:10:28
  I can do it all right. OK.
• 2:10:30
  Well, that was the best question.
• 2:10:31
  Good job, Lachlan. I love that question.
• 2:10:33
  Wow. Well Fatah, Eli gives you a
• 2:10:35
  shout out. Hopefully you get your zebra for
• 2:10:36
  2024. Yeah.
• 2:10:38
  Thanks. Thanks.
• 2:10:38
  For shout out Fatah for though, $20.
• 2:10:40
  Thanks for the $20. Maybe I'll just get a zebra
• 2:10:42
  burger or somewhere for that. I don't think.
• 2:10:45
  I don't know. Can you eat zebra?
• 2:10:46
  I don't think you. Could.
• 2:10:47
  I'm sure you could, but I'm probably frowned upon.
• 2:10:50
  It. Might be a bit of a of a taboo.
• 2:10:52
  Ricky, here's my own question for you and the room.
• 2:10:55
  All right? Would you guys eat a human
• 2:10:56
  burger if you could eat one ethically?
• 2:11:00
  You say a. Human burger, yeah.
• 2:11:02
  I don't know if I want that taste my taste.
• 2:11:05
  Yeah, mad cow disease. No if.
• 2:11:08
  You could eat it ethically and you're not going to get sick.
• 2:11:12
  Physically, I feel like like I'd probably try it.
• 2:11:15
  Yes, I'd probably try it. What?
• 2:11:17
  I'm talking about. I don't think I.
• 2:11:18
  Could I mean, I've had like alligator and stuff, you know?
• 2:11:21
  You just got to complete the circle of mammals.
• 2:11:23
  Like if there was some weird ethnic.
• 2:11:24
  I mean, I had a. Bison Bison filet when I was out
• 2:11:27
  at Yellowstone. I heard that's pretty gamey to
• 2:11:29
  eat. Bison.
• 2:11:30
  Yeah. Oh, the.
• 2:11:31
  I mean, there's a filet part of it, so it wasn't at.
• 2:11:32
  All, yeah, but maybe the. Rest of it, yeah, Elk Elk is
• 2:11:35
  very gamey. Malcolm would you eat a human
• 2:11:36
  being? I'm going to go ahead and say,
• 2:11:38
  yeah, you're cancelled. Like you'd try it?
• 2:11:41
  I take a bite. Yeah, right.
• 2:11:43
  If if everybody's like, Oh yeah dude, it's cool.
• 2:11:45
  We've all. Eaten it.
• 2:11:46
  Yeah, if everybody's like, dude, it's.
• 2:11:48
  We get it. Sorry, do you have any chicken
• 2:11:49
  if? You turn it to a normal thing,
• 2:11:52
  like if you if you were born and growing up, your parents fed you
• 2:11:56
  human burgers, you're going to think it's normal.
• 2:11:58
  That's. Different.
• 2:11:59
  That's kind of similar how Malcolm grew.
• 2:12:01
  Up we just we we just. Got to eat what you got?
• 2:12:03
  To eat. But we're talking about we're
• 2:12:04
  eating it. Like now and this is going to
• 2:12:07
  end with the knowledge. For the record, we're going to
• 2:12:09
  end up eating human beings at 1:00.
• 2:12:10
  Point No, we're going to end up. Forming such.
• 2:12:12
  Fake. We might not.
• 2:12:13
  But that people in the future. They're growing fake meat.
• 2:12:15
  They're going to be farming so much fake.
• 2:12:17
  Meat other farming people. The other day at the wedding we
• 2:12:20
  were at, Okay accidentally chose the vegan option.
• 2:12:24
  What kind of fucking accident is that?
• 2:12:26
  Like when you let the monkey. Out.
• 2:12:27
  Did you just use your man card? I had the vegan option.
• 2:12:30
  What? What was it?
• 2:12:31
  It was a big Portobello mushroom, I thought it said.
• 2:12:34
  I thought. I thought that it was a mushroom
• 2:12:36
  with cheese on top of a piece of meat.
• 2:12:39
  Not in vegan world. Well, I didn't know that.
• 2:12:42
  And I ate everything bad. It was pretty good.
• 2:12:44
  I'm saying like, some of the vegan options are kind of
• 2:12:47
  delicious. They're good.
• 2:12:48
  Good. I mean, I like vegetables, but I
• 2:12:50
  also want them with like, a steak, Yeah.
• 2:12:52
  Yeah, absolutely right. But here's the Here was the
• 2:12:55
  thing, though, the the vegetarian or whatever.
• 2:12:57
  The vegetable option that I had, the vegetable option was
• 2:13:00
  smothered in cheese. So I was like, if I was actually
• 2:13:03
  vegan, then I can't eat this. Vegetarian.
• 2:13:05
  Vegetarian. Vegetarian is the thing.
• 2:13:07
  That shit was so good. I want to fucking.
• 2:13:09
  Vegetarian pisses me off more than vegan.
• 2:13:11
  I think more. Yeah.
• 2:13:12
  Really. Because I'm because I'm like
• 2:13:14
  just commit. Oh, Carl, They call it a
• 2:13:16
  Portobello Wellington. That's what.
• 2:13:18
  That's what the name of it was. Portobello, right?
• 2:13:19
  Just commit. Who just I mean it.
• 2:13:21
  Depends. No, I remember.
• 2:13:22
  Oh, OK, it. Is you really want to save the
• 2:13:23
  animals, why don't you just commit?
• 2:13:26
  Well, the cheese ain't killing nobody.
• 2:13:28
  Well, they're. Well, abusing the fuck out of
• 2:13:30
  those animals to get that cheese, I'll.
• 2:13:31
  Eat the shit out of. Cheese.
• 2:13:32
  I fucking love cheese. I'm lactose to sell.
• 2:13:34
  I love cheese. There's no ethical way to get
• 2:13:36
  out of that shit, man. If you're living in in the world
• 2:13:38
  right now, you're fucking hurting animals.
• 2:13:40
  Yeah. No matter what you do somehow,
• 2:13:42
  someway like if so I'm girls are like I love the animals.
• 2:13:45
  Yeah, but you have makeup on that comes from like.
• 2:13:47
  Animals that they literally test on animals.
• 2:13:50
  For those vegetable farms, whatever.
• 2:13:53
  You know how many fucking shit hogs they got to kill to keep
• 2:13:56
  them from? Well.
• 2:13:56
  They're having a hog. Problem though They're AR having
• 2:13:59
  a hog problem down in Texas. They fuck.
• 2:14:01
  They shoot those things from helicopters, dude.
• 2:14:03
  I want to go. So bad.
• 2:14:04
  Yeah, People want me to go to that.
• 2:14:05
  I don't know how I feel about that.
• 2:14:08
  Yeah, it's almost not like hunting at that point.
• 2:14:10
  Yeah, it's it's like a slaughter.
• 2:14:11
  It's literally just killing. Yeah, and I'm not really.
• 2:14:13
  Into that, my concern is that, like, they're killing them,
• 2:14:16
  yeah, they need to eradicate them because there's a lot of
• 2:14:19
  them, right? Yeah, I guess.
• 2:14:20
  Which is a thing that exists. But can I eat them?
• 2:14:23
  What happens to them after? Are you just killing them just
• 2:14:26
  because you have all these guns? Probably.
• 2:14:27
  Yeah, they might get right of them.
• 2:14:29
  Yeah, that's kind of bad. There's too many.
• 2:14:31
  You're. Not landing the helicopter and
• 2:14:33
  picking them up. Yeah, that's that's exactly
• 2:14:35
  what. I think it was the other hogs.
• 2:14:36
  Hogs are. The only way I'm doing this is
• 2:14:39
  if there's an M60. It's a Huey from Vietnam and and
• 2:14:44
  they're playing some old fucking rock.
• 2:14:47
  Perfect. Yeah, that's the.
• 2:14:49
  Only. Way.
• 2:14:51
  Yeah, what song is a? Fucking.
• 2:14:56
  CREDENCE. CREDENCE.
• 2:14:57
  Clearwater. Yeah, we listened to that song.
• 2:14:59
  We got into the desert. It was the first thing I did.
• 2:15:01
  I almost crashed us. Dude, that's the only way I'm
• 2:15:04
  getting in that. We were pulling into Grange, or
• 2:15:06
  we were getting closer and closer to Grange, and I just put
• 2:15:08
  that song on. I forgot I was driving.
• 2:15:10
  Forgot fucking yeah, it was good.
• 2:15:14
  Another question. Yeah, we got a lot.
• 2:15:16
  Oh boy. This one's Squill FPV.
• 2:15:19
  Can you tell a story of a time you may have been too ambitious?
• 2:15:22
  May. Have been too, Yeah, getting in
• 2:15:24
  the FD. Yeah, I was.
• 2:15:26
  So confident my first year and I got smacked in the face by
• 2:15:30
  reality. I mean, at least you can admit
• 2:15:33
  it now. Yeah, I mean.
• 2:15:33
  Would you have changed anything? Would you have changed anything?
• 2:15:35
  No. No, no, it was.
• 2:15:36
  It's been an amazing experience and that's why I want to go
• 2:15:38
  back. If I didn't like it, I wouldn't
• 2:15:39
  be trying to go back. Yeah.
• 2:15:41
  Well, that was your first season, and then you had another
• 2:15:42
  one, right? Yeah.
• 2:15:43
  Then in my second. So my first season overall, I
• 2:15:46
  finished 10th place in the whole series, which.
• 2:15:48
  Is out of what, 30? 32 And then my second year I
• 2:15:51
  finished I think 9th or it was like 9th somewhere right around.
• 2:15:56
  I think it was ninth out of like, so better than the year
• 2:15:59
  before, better than the year before.
• 2:16:00
  And then the most previous year I broke everything and every
• 2:16:05
  event and I finished like 22nd. And that's when I was like, I
• 2:16:08
  need to take a step back. I'm spending money for no
• 2:16:10
  reason. I need to revamp the car.
• 2:16:12
  So I did revamp the car, drove it all year and it's been good.
• 2:16:14
  So I'm like, all right, cool, we can go back in the FD.
• 2:16:17
  I've learned more, and I'm ready to that.
• 2:16:18
  Sucks though, that you had like a piece of equipment that you
• 2:16:21
  couldn't. It sounds like it broke.
• 2:16:23
  A lot. It happens to a lot of people.
• 2:16:25
  It's like more common. So like your first two years
• 2:16:27
  like the car is pretty good. The third year you're like the
• 2:16:29
  car is still good. Those parts are weak, they're
• 2:16:31
  tired, things are bent you don't know about.
• 2:16:33
  It should just start snapping in half out of nowhere.
• 2:16:36
  God. I got a question for you.
• 2:16:37
  Where do you see this taking you, if anywhere?
• 2:16:41
  Do you just do it for fun at this point?
• 2:16:43
  Like it? What's?
• 2:16:44
  If I could make drifting for myself to the point where I'm
• 2:16:49
  not making money, but I'm not spending money, it's like almost
• 2:16:53
  just. That seems to be the goal.
• 2:16:55
  For that would be. That would be amazing.
• 2:16:58
  Sustainable platform. That's what Josh is trying to
• 2:17:00
  get to so for. Me though, I see this also as I
• 2:17:04
  can have this car that's badass and fast as hell.
• 2:17:06
  I'm going to have a seat time car.
• 2:17:08
  I have sponsors that help pay for a lot of the stuff as long
• 2:17:11
  as I produce what I have to produce.
• 2:17:14
  I still put money out of my pocket, but the money out of my
• 2:17:16
  pocket is probably similar to running a full season of club
• 2:17:20
  loose. OK.
• 2:17:21
  So if I can spend the same money to run club loose all year long,
• 2:17:24
  or the same money to do Gridlife, Lime Rock, go Drifting
• 2:17:28
  California, go to Seattle, go to Texas and do all these crazy
• 2:17:31
  tracks and have the time of my life traveling with everybody,
• 2:17:34
  why wouldn't I do that? Hell yeah, dude.
• 2:17:36
  So you're thinking. It's, it's, it's almost, yeah.
• 2:17:38
  So for me, Formula D is not the pinnacle of where I think
• 2:17:43
  drifting should be for people. Not, not some people.
• 2:17:46
  Yes, some people. They only want to compete and
• 2:17:48
  that's it. For me it's a another piece of
• 2:17:51
  the puzzle for doing more stuff in drifting.
• 2:17:55
  Yeah, I like that. It's like a like a channel.
• 2:17:59
  Yeah, yeah. It's just another thing, yeah.
• 2:18:01
  Gotcha. Right.
• 2:18:02
  This is from I'm Not Seb. What's his favorite Smash Mouth
• 2:18:05
  song that's so specific? I'm I hope you know the Seb All
• 2:18:08
  Star. OK, good.
• 2:18:10
  So we were at PRI and he put, you know, like you can log into
• 2:18:13
  a, like a jukebox from your phone at a bar.
• 2:18:16
  Uh huh. So he did that and I think he
• 2:18:17
  put on Smash Mouth like 55. No.
• 2:18:21
  I do know one Smash Mouth. Song.
• 2:18:22
  What's that one Smash Mouth song?
• 2:18:24
  That's not All Star That's good. There's one.
• 2:18:26
  I actually don't. Remember what?
• 2:18:27
  Song it was. I just remember it was Smash
• 2:18:30
  Mouth. I heard it so many times.
• 2:18:32
  I'm rolling the sun. There was my cousin did that
• 2:18:35
  once, but she played walking. There's like a loop where it's
• 2:18:40
  just and the wheels stop coming and the wheels or whatever that
• 2:18:43
  verse is. And then she's looped that.
• 2:18:45
  It's it's a loop on YouTube like 10 hours I was.
• 2:18:47
  Like Walking on The Sun by Smash Mouth?
• 2:18:50
  That's a good song. It might have been that one.
• 2:18:51
  It's. A good one, but I.
• 2:18:52
  Don't think I can play that but. Yeah, he put it on so many.
• 2:18:55
  He's he's like, yeah, I had like 80 bucks in there and I just put
• 2:18:58
  all Smash Mouth and it was on. It was on like you could hear
• 2:19:02
  it, but as more people came to the bar.
• 2:19:04
  It would just get. It got drowned out, but like an
• 2:19:06
  hour later we're like, it's still on, like.
• 2:19:10
  Like a group of like 6. Of us knew about it, so like we
• 2:19:12
  were laughing to ourselves about it.
• 2:19:15
  That's something my friend Brendan would do.
• 2:19:17
  Would Brendan do that? He's definitely done that.
• 2:19:20
  This is from a friend of mine, Dan the Man, 95.
• 2:19:22
  What's Ricky's daily driver? I'm actually curious too when
• 2:19:24
  you drive. Regular.
• 2:19:25
  What do you think it is? A Chevy.
• 2:19:28
  Thinking like, you know, I think it's a Ford, Malcolm.
• 2:19:33
  I am going to guess. Let's see.
• 2:19:36
  I have a second guess. It's a car.
• 2:19:39
  OK. I'll.
• 2:19:39
  Get this? Yeah.
• 2:19:40
  You can guess again. It's a.
• 2:19:43
  Hurry up. I'm just say Nissan Altima.
• 2:19:46
  Subaru. No, it's a fuck.
• 2:19:51
  It's a car. Yeah, definitely not a nice.
• 2:19:53
  It's a Honda Accord, no? Fuck, it's a Volkswagen Golf
• 2:19:57
  TDI. 6 speed Fuck. I would have never guessed that
• 2:20:00
  shit. Yeah, so I never would have
• 2:20:02
  viewed myself having one, but I drive a lot of miles for work
• 2:20:06
  and I wanted something that was still fun.
• 2:20:07
  It's a 6 speed. It's tuned.
• 2:20:09
  Deleted stage 2. It's quick enough.
• 2:20:12
  It's like stocked up your ex fast.
• 2:20:13
  And it's a nice car, I'm. Sure, it's decent.
• 2:20:15
  Oh yeah. It's got heated seats, you know.
• 2:20:16
  Like it's a wagon. Oh yeah.
• 2:20:18
  Smells like crazy bike so. It's a 2 door wagon.
• 2:20:21
  Yeah, bike could fit. Bike could fit in the back.
• 2:20:22
  Yeah, like I get to and from work in it.
• 2:20:24
  It's fun. It's a diesel.
• 2:20:26
  It rolls coal. It's cool.
• 2:20:27
  Does it really? Oh yeah.
• 2:20:28
  That's crazy, yeah. Interesting.
• 2:20:33
  All right. I don't know if I'm gonna ask
• 2:20:34
  this next one, Frankie, but. Maybe you can if you.
• 2:20:36
  Were feeling it. But I'm gonna skip to this one.
• 2:20:39
  That blue truck 240. Why don't you sell more FC
• 2:20:42
  parts? This is to you, I guess.
• 2:20:44
  Oh. Yeah, it's gotta be to you guys.
• 2:20:45
  I don't sell. Parts I don't.
• 2:20:47
  I don't know if you sell any FC. Parts Damn, I love FC.
• 2:20:50
  So I had. I had a quite a few of them.
• 2:20:53
  You did you? Really.
• 2:20:54
  Yeah. I had three of them.
• 2:20:55
  I had a turbo two, I had an NA and I had a roller.
• 2:20:58
  The turbo two was bad ass. Tom's brother just got his kinda
• 2:21:01
  going beautiful. Cars don't give her.
• 2:21:03
  It's not like practical by any means, No, but they are just,
• 2:21:06
  they're cool cars. It's.
• 2:21:07
  Awesome. OK, Frankie, what are you
• 2:21:09
  looking at? I I'm looking at the question
• 2:21:11
  there is a way to to word this where we could ask it but God,
• 2:21:14
  it's just it's like do I want to put Ricky through this
• 2:21:16
  ridiculousness? Why don't I put you through
• 2:21:18
  through it first and Ricky can answer if he wants.
• 2:21:20
  I'm not going to answer. That's the thing.
• 2:21:22
  I'll answer it after taking note on the things that you say that
• 2:21:25
  I shouldn't say. Yeah.
• 2:21:26
  It's probably something that we shouldn't say.
• 2:21:28
  OK, fair enough. Yeah.
• 2:21:30
  Well, yeah. Can I see the question?
• 2:21:31
  Yeah. Let me review this question.
• 2:21:33
  Which one is it? It's right there.
• 2:21:34
  I have a way to do that. Oh yeah, I'm not, but I mean.
• 2:21:39
  Keep asking the more. Other questions?
• 2:21:41
  I'll ask Malcolm a question. No.
• 2:21:44
  Don't. Yeah.
• 2:21:46
  I don't know. I.
• 2:21:47
  Don't think it's? We had a conversation before
• 2:21:50
  this started. I was like, what is good and not
• 2:21:52
  good to talk about this is. What I was saying.
• 2:21:54
  The first thing I said. Was this is it?
• 2:21:56
  I say some dumb shit. Yeah.
• 2:21:58
  Right. But then I'm like, so like what
• 2:21:59
  can I say? We came up with what not to say
• 2:22:02
  and this is it. OK, but here's the problem.
• 2:22:06
  This is my show, and if I was listening to this show, I would
• 2:22:08
  be mad right now. So, Malcolm, OK would you rather
• 2:22:11
  have a homosexual son or a daughter that was a little more
• 2:22:16
  on the promiscuous side? Yes.
• 2:22:18
  A whore. Man.
• 2:22:21
  I'm going with the free Spirit Sun.
• 2:22:24
  Free Spirit. Sun, Yeah, Okay, Yeah.
• 2:22:27
  We've had this conversation before.
• 2:22:29
  Yeah, 100%. And we always say Sun, right?
• 2:22:32
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 2:22:33
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 2:22:34
  Obviously we've had this conversation at work, like we do
• 2:22:35
  this or that's at work, but like, I cannot say a single.
• 2:22:39
  Yeah, I. Hear you, bro.
• 2:22:40
  We cannot. No.
• 2:22:42
  We cannot. I mean, I'll ask him after and
• 2:22:44
  you guys are gonna be like, I'm just who thought of this?
• 2:22:46
  Just. Bad.
• 2:22:47
  Just. Put yourself in this position
• 2:22:49
  and you're like if my son was gay or whatever, or my daughter,
• 2:22:52
  like if my daughter was. Thought.
• 2:22:54
  For better lack of better terms, being a slut, yeah, yes, having
• 2:22:58
  a gay son is awesome compared to having a daughter and dealing
• 2:23:02
  with that. A gay Duke could still fight.
• 2:23:04
  That's all I'm saying. That's all I'm.
• 2:23:07
  Saying I just wanted to. Be known that I didn't say
• 2:23:09
  anything and neither did Ricky. And then my son could give.
• 2:23:12
  Me answer, all three of us answer you have.
• 2:23:14
  To I don't. Give me right, give.
• 2:23:18
  Me, right? Yeah.
• 2:23:20
  Dude, I don't want it. I don't.
• 2:23:21
  Want it there? Dude having a daughter in
• 2:23:22
  general, distressed. Even if your daughter is insane,
• 2:23:25
  that's. The thing like you have a, like
• 2:23:27
  you have like all of us are like, we're all guys.
• 2:23:29
  Like I'm sure we've all had girlfriends or have girlfriends.
• 2:23:31
  Like you're worried about her going to the mall, you know what
• 2:23:34
  I'm saying? Like, imagine having a daughter.
• 2:23:37
  Who's just out there? It's not even that.
• 2:23:39
  It's not even that. Just Just having a daughter
• 2:23:41
  doing right 17 years. Old and.
• 2:23:43
  All of a sudden you can't reach her on the phone.
• 2:23:46
  Oh my God, brother. You're going to be worried about
• 2:23:50
  the guy too, but you're like, he'll get through it.
• 2:23:51
  Like, whatever, he'll be fine. Even if he gets beat up, he'll
• 2:23:53
  be fine. Like, yeah, Like if my yeah, if
• 2:23:56
  my gay son didn't answer the phone or my daughter didn't.
• 2:23:58
  Answer the phone regardless. If they're.
• 2:24:00
  He's homosexual, straight, whatever.
• 2:24:02
  Like if I have two kids and I have a girl and a boy and the
• 2:24:05
  guy is out and he's not answering his phone, he's 17
• 2:24:07
  years old, like that. Kid's drunk on vodka in a field
• 2:24:09
  somewhere. He'll wake up.
• 2:24:09
  He's going to be hungover. He'll be fine.
• 2:24:11
  I'll yell him tomorrow. The girl doesn't answer.
• 2:24:14
  And you already know she had like 20 different dudes over the
• 2:24:16
  last week and you're like, hey, I don't know, she could be
• 2:24:19
  anywhere. Yeah, dude, fuck that.
• 2:24:21
  That's a lot of stress, all right.
• 2:24:23
  Franklin I'm going to cut. You.
• 2:24:24
  There you go, guys. I asked the question, OK?
• 2:24:27
  So I don't want to hear any bullshit.
• 2:24:28
  What? You didn't ask the question, I
• 2:24:29
  asked it. We all answered it.
• 2:24:32
  We did. Except for Carl.
• 2:24:34
  I did, he answered. I said.
• 2:24:35
  Casey. He low key answered.
• 2:24:37
  Hot works, Tom Thumb. Thumb.
• 2:24:41
  I don't know what's the best engine for a Silvia and why is
• 2:24:43
  it an Sr. It's a Jay-Z.
• 2:24:45
  It's definitely not a Jay. Z It's a Jay-Z.
• 2:24:47
  All right, so now we're just lying.
• 2:24:49
  OK, so. It's a Jay-Z.
• 2:24:53
  Why do you say it's a Jay-Z? Because the God's a motor.
• 2:24:56
  Because it's reliable. That's why you say it's.
• 2:24:58
  Reliable. You can put those motors
• 2:25:00
  through. If you get that thing to 270°,
• 2:25:04
  is it ever going to run again? Hell.
• 2:25:06
  No. Hell no.
• 2:25:08
  I know a lot of the Irwindale Bank with a blown head gasket at
• 2:25:11
  275° and I did two more battles after that.
• 2:25:15
  And then what? It was fine.
• 2:25:17
  I replaced the head gasket. Oh.
• 2:25:19
  There, he had to replace the head gasket.
• 2:25:21
  Yeah, that's it. That's all I had to do, though.
• 2:25:24
  If that thing hit that temperature, I don't even know
• 2:25:27
  what would. Happen, I don't think, Jay.
• 2:25:28
  Z is a better engine for sure, not in a Sylvia.
• 2:25:32
  Wire bro. Wannabe Evo is back in here
• 2:25:34
  giving money. Wannabe Evo stop.
• 2:25:36
  We. Appreciate it.
• 2:25:39
  We're not playing the game. We're not playing the game
• 2:25:41
  anymore. We're not playing the drip
• 2:25:43
  budget game. Listen, if you guys get this
• 2:25:45
  chat to $1000, Frankie will not put corn in this motor.
• 2:25:49
  Fair enough. I'll do that.
• 2:25:50
  I'll do that. That shit is stored indoors
• 2:25:53
  anyway. I'll put water in it, all right.
• 2:25:57
  Favorite sandwich? I don't know.
• 2:26:02
  Good pastrami sandwich. It's good.
• 2:26:03
  Like Cats Delicatessen in New York.
• 2:26:05
  Yeah, I wanna go there. No ones ever been there there
• 2:26:07
  man. Dude.
• 2:26:08
  What the fuck? Good.
• 2:26:10
  Dude. It's the best.
• 2:26:11
  Pastrami with like a little thing of like 1000 Island on the
• 2:26:14
  side. I wanna go there on it.
• 2:26:16
  I'm a dipper. I gotta have a lot of it.
• 2:26:18
  On it, dude. Fuck yeah.
• 2:26:20
  With some slaw or whatever The fuck.
• 2:26:22
  New yeah. Straight pipe BMW E36. 325 What
• 2:26:25
  are your guys? Favorite sandwiches?
• 2:26:27
  Oh, sorry, what? Then I just.
• 2:26:28
  I'm boring. Sorry, I'm thinking of pastrami.
• 2:26:30
  Fuck. So good.
• 2:26:31
  I just like chicken cutlet sandwiches.
• 2:26:32
  I'm boring not. Chicken cutlet.
• 2:26:33
  I don't. It's good.
• 2:26:34
  I don't really eat cold cuts like I'm trying.
• 2:26:36
  To think of what sandwich I like, I just.
• 2:26:38
  I need a good Italian. It's got to have all that.
• 2:26:40
  Like a good Italian. The Gabba Goo.
• 2:26:42
  Got got to have the Gabba goo on there Capicola.
• 2:26:45
  Now, I've been thinking about this for an hour.
• 2:26:47
  It's already. Know.
• 2:26:48
  Thought. No, no, no.
• 2:26:48
  It's a cheese steak. Hmm.
• 2:26:51
  Fair. Enough, dude.
• 2:26:51
  I had the cheese steak, Philly with my.
• 2:26:53
  Brother Man, Dal Sandro's and no, I had.
• 2:26:56
  Angelo's in Philly. Also good though the.
• 2:26:58
  Bread, man. Fuck yeah.
• 2:26:59
  God damn it. We can't cut.
• 2:27:04
  I'm hungry. Yeah, I'm.
• 2:27:05
  Hungry. Now I'm instantly hungry.
• 2:27:07
  Damn it. All right, this one's another
• 2:27:09
  one. Wait a minute.
• 2:27:10
  Alan. Straight pipe, Yeah.
• 2:27:11
  All right. Straight pipe bmwe 36325 I or
• 2:27:16
  straight. Pipe.
• 2:27:17
  Hyundai Genesis 3. 6:00 Not that one.
• 2:27:21
  Wait, 3-6, those motors. They're quick.
• 2:27:23
  Yeah, but they don't sound good. I don't know how they sound.
• 2:27:25
  I know it's AV six, it's it's eerily close to a three, five
• 2:27:30
  and seven of AVQ, so I know. What it's I think they're gonna
• 2:27:33
  be sound completely different. So I actually had an
• 2:27:35
  ex-girlfriend that had the three six Genesis with the 6 speed in
• 2:27:38
  it and I drove it. That thing was fun as hell.
• 2:27:41
  Yeah, they're quick for what it was.
• 2:27:44
  I I thought and this this probably when I was like 2020.
• 2:27:46
  10 I think. They're heavy.
• 2:27:47
  When it first came out, I had like the Brembo brakes on it and
• 2:27:50
  stuff and there it is. Cool.
• 2:27:51
  That's when Reese Millen was driving the supercharge on an
• 2:27:53
  FD. R spec or whatever.
• 2:27:55
  R Spec. Had the brakes.
• 2:27:56
  I had a kid who I went to school with.
• 2:27:59
  I went to school in South Jersey at Rowan and he had a one with
• 2:28:03
  Brembos on, I think. I looked at the curb weight and
• 2:28:05
  I was like. What the fuck?
• 2:28:06
  Oh yeah, they're. Crazy heavy.
• 2:28:08
  And I was like, whoa. Anyway, thank you, Alan.
• 2:28:12
  Do a little dance. Why are you quoting this song?
• 2:28:15
  He's saying. Do a little dance.
• 2:28:16
  Make a little love. Get down tonight.
• 2:28:18
  Yes, Sir, On God Tap. In do what I can.
• 2:28:21
  Speak on the S14 Jay ZX100 front end Swap with.
• 2:28:26
  Rings I did want to know. About what?
• 2:28:27
  So, all right, so we were at Utah two years ago and I got
• 2:28:33
  knocked out, and that's another one.
• 2:28:34
  I had knocked down Top 32. I was pissed the hell off.
• 2:28:38
  So I go back to my trailer, but I actually smashed my helmet,
• 2:28:40
  broke my helmet in two pieces. I was pissed.
• 2:28:42
  Just went across the country, got knocked out in top 32, spent
• 2:28:45
  but ton of money to get there and it was the end of the season
• 2:28:47
  at like every event something broke like just just one of
• 2:28:50
  those things like it was built up, whatever.
• 2:28:52
  So I I'm done. I'm off the track.
• 2:28:55
  Rich had a by run in his top 32 'cause he qualified so well,
• 2:28:59
  blew his motor up on the by run. So he's technically in the top
• 2:29:03
  16, but he's got a blown motor and can't compete.
• 2:29:05
  So the original plan was I was going to give him my motor
• 2:29:08
  through both Ran Jay ZS. Right here on the.
• 2:29:10
  On the spot, we started pulling mine out, we started pulling his
• 2:29:12
  out and as we're doing it, I'm like, wait, we have two
• 2:29:15
  different cylinder heads. So like a lot of stuff is not
• 2:29:18
  going to fit. Like intercooler piping is going
• 2:29:20
  to be different, like turbo wiring harness differences, like
• 2:29:23
  a lot of stuff was not going to work.
• 2:29:26
  So we didn't do it. But Rich was like, well damn, I
• 2:29:28
  really wish I could go out to the top 16 ceremonies.
• 2:29:32
  So we had both front ends off 'cause we're getting ready to
• 2:29:34
  pop these motors out. So we put the Jay ZX front end
• 2:29:37
  onto my S14. It fits so good.
• 2:29:41
  It is so close to being what it should be.
• 2:29:44
  With. Very minimal helping of setting
• 2:29:47
  body panels. It was cool though, 'cause like
• 2:29:49
  it was the rear half of my car with like the wheel coming out.
• 2:29:52
  Sponsored by the time. And it was the front half of
• 2:29:54
  Rich's car with the I think there are rays that he had in
• 2:29:56
  his car and like there's a picture of it online like it
• 2:30:00
  fits. Sick.
• 2:30:01
  From the front end, you probably wouldn't have even.
• 2:30:03
  Dude, Larry Chen was walking past this thing for the
• 2:30:05
  introductions and he, like, Double Take was like, what the
• 2:30:08
  heck? We're both sponsored by Coral
• 2:30:10
  Works. Yeah, so like it was Cora Works
• 2:30:13
  all over the car, front and rear.
• 2:30:14
  And like Greg loved it. Like Greg from Cora Works is the
• 2:30:16
  man. I don't know if you guys know
• 2:30:17
  him or not. He is.
• 2:30:18
  We never met them really officially.
• 2:30:20
  Oh man. We might have met that.
• 2:30:21
  I might have met him in passing, but I don't remember.
• 2:30:23
  Oh, he's the man. He was loving it.
• 2:30:25
  He's out there cheering us and he was having a good time.
• 2:30:27
  Everyone is like this is sick. Like both cars.
• 2:30:30
  Yeah, both cars in one. Out there I.
• 2:30:31
  Thought the cars look pretty cool.
• 2:30:33
  Yeah, it was cool. I liked it.
• 2:30:35
  I tried to buy the front end off Ridge and gave me a price.
• 2:30:37
  I was like, yeah, take it back. Now that would be a cool thing
• 2:30:40
  to do. This one's from FRS, Zach.
• 2:30:42
  What is one thing you would tell your younger self?
• 2:30:46
  And also, do aliens exist? I'm gonna answer the last one
• 2:30:49
  first. Yes, we talked about that list
• 2:30:51
  we got on the same page. No.
• 2:30:53
  Shot. They don't.
• 2:30:53
  Yeah, easy, Yeah. But the first one?
• 2:30:55
  Anything or like drift related? I would say anything I want to
• 2:31:00
  say anything if I could. If I could tell like.
• 2:31:02
  Don't, don't, don't say like winning lottery numbers or
• 2:31:05
  something like that. If I could tell 17 year old
• 2:31:06
  myself, I mean, it won't be winning lottery numbers maybe.
• 2:31:08
  Like, yeah, like like, you know, invest in Amazon.
• 2:31:11
  Like next thing you know you don't have to work, you don't
• 2:31:14
  need sponsors. Do whatever you want.
• 2:31:15
  You're good. Fuck true.
• 2:31:17
  And like Tesla, invest in Tesla, that's.
• 2:31:18
  Pretty much lottery numbers though.
• 2:31:20
  Bitcoin would have been so. Easy, man, Yeah.
• 2:31:22
  But I feel like I would. If there was actual advice,
• 2:31:24
  yeah, that's man. I don't know.
• 2:31:27
  Like, I don't regret really most of anything that I've done.
• 2:31:31
  Maybe get into drifting earlier. Yes, that's what I was gonna.
• 2:31:34
  Say I got into drifting when I was like I said, I was like
• 2:31:37
  21/22/20 3:00-ish. If I got in, if my first car was
• 2:31:41
  a drift car, I would have definitely got into FD earlier,
• 2:31:44
  like those three years I missed. If I could have added that and
• 2:31:48
  made my drifting career to that point, there would have been a
• 2:31:51
  lot more stuff I could have done sooner and it would have been
• 2:31:56
  way cheaper. Yeah, cheaper for sure.
• 2:31:58
  I think I would have, I would have.
• 2:32:00
  It's something along the lines of that, but it wouldn't have
• 2:32:02
  been like directly drifting related.
• 2:32:05
  I would have just told myself, like, OK, if you like cars, go
• 2:32:07
  like go like go ahead and go start liking cars like right
• 2:32:09
  away, get into it, 'cause then I would have made the mistakes
• 2:32:13
  earlier, right Would. Have known?
• 2:32:14
  More would have learned more and then yeah, the rest might still
• 2:32:18
  be the same. But I would have done it
• 2:32:20
  earlier. That would be 26, not 28.
• 2:32:23
  What about you, Frankie? What regrets, Yeah.
• 2:32:26
  Oh God I. As you were saying, as you guys
• 2:32:28
  were saying I was. Lifting off regrets in your
• 2:32:29
  head. I was, yeah.
• 2:32:30
  I was like, Oh my God, there's so much shit I would tell myself
• 2:32:34
  that I don't even really have an answer.
• 2:32:36
  I feel like the first thing would be she's not worth it.
• 2:32:38
  That'd be the first thing. And that's for almost every
• 2:32:41
  fucking girl I was with. Yeah, I think any guy could look
• 2:32:43
  back to any relationship and think that.
• 2:32:45
  But yeah, there had to be one good thing you took away from
• 2:32:47
  the relationship. There's a lot of good things I
• 2:32:48
  took. Away from OK, there you go,
• 2:32:50
  right? Yeah, but, you know, there's
• 2:32:52
  always some, I don't know, but like life advice that doesn't
• 2:32:56
  involve women, I don't know. Don't.
• 2:32:59
  Feel like their. 20s I feel like we're pretty good we we do what
• 2:33:02
  we want to do and and we're fortunate enough to be able to
• 2:33:04
  do that and. We've built a solid enough
• 2:33:06
  career that we can. We're not stressed completely
• 2:33:09
  about money, but we can go out and enjoy ourselves and not be
• 2:33:11
  like, Oh my God, yeah, I spent that money last night.
• 2:33:14
  I can't. I can't afford to rent.
• 2:33:16
  Yeah, there's really nothing. Crazy some months, man.
• 2:33:19
  Listen, when I was, yeah. When I was building the FD car,
• 2:33:22
  me and Steve, we were broke. It was insane how broke we were
• 2:33:27
  for the amount of hours that we were both working and we both
• 2:33:30
  lived, we both rent the same house.
• 2:33:32
  So like see each other hating life every day.
• 2:33:34
  Miserable. Absolutely miserable.
• 2:33:38
  And then? If you guys didn't live here,
• 2:33:40
  you think you would have still did that?
• 2:33:41
  Shit, I don't know. We really pushed off of each
• 2:33:43
  other a lot like we really did. That's pretty powerful.
• 2:33:46
  Actually, and then it was cool, 'cause at the end of our first
• 2:33:49
  year we battled at Irwindale together, which is cool if.
• 2:33:53
  You break my car, we're fixing this shit at home.
• 2:33:55
  And I won by the way Steve if you're watching this.
• 2:33:58
  And yeah, so it was funny because it was actually a a
• 2:34:01
  battle for 3rd place. So the battle was to get on the
• 2:34:04
  podium and both these cars were pieces of crap at this point.
• 2:34:08
  Like I had no power steering in a blown head gasket.
• 2:34:11
  Steve already hit the wall once. He has like two different front
• 2:34:13
  knuckles on his car and like the thing isn't steering right, his
• 2:34:16
  power steering doesn't work and the things barely idling at this
• 2:34:18
  point and we one more timed these cars should not have made
• 2:34:21
  a single battle. But they did.
• 2:34:23
  The tech director came up and was like, dude, these cars,
• 2:34:28
  they're they're hurting. And we're like, yeah, we know.
• 2:34:31
  And at one point, Steve knocked the rear bash bar off his car
• 2:34:34
  and cabinet detector out of Kim. You got to put your spare on.
• 2:34:36
  Steve's like, spare. He's like, what do you?
• 2:34:39
  Mean. What's spare?
• 2:34:40
  He's like, you think I have a spare bash bar?
• 2:34:41
  He's got enough money to get home.
• 2:34:46
  It's kind of cool to hear that that still you're in a pro level
• 2:34:48
  and that it's still like normal problems.
• 2:34:51
  Oh yeah, yeah. What's funny because he picked
• 2:34:53
  up the, he picked up the bash. But I felt Steve is not a
• 2:34:55
  welder. He can like tack some stuff
• 2:34:57
  together, like he can play around a little bit, but he's by
• 2:35:00
  far not a welder. And he welded this bash bar
• 2:35:01
  himself and he was proud of this thing, man, he was.
• 2:35:04
  So it didn't look good, but especially because I am a welder
• 2:35:08
  and like, it just didn't, you know, one tap of the wall, that
• 2:35:11
  thing came flying off. Just, it just perfectly popped
• 2:35:13
  off. The Weld just pink just popped
• 2:35:15
  right off. And.
• 2:35:15
  Kevin told him this thing in his hand.
• 2:35:17
  And he's looking at the Weld and he's like, yeah, honestly, if
• 2:35:21
  you had a spare, I probably wouldn't trust it either.
• 2:35:23
  He's probably looking at that and he's just thinking of the
• 2:35:25
  rest of the car. And Oh yeah, 100%.
• 2:35:28
  Can we go back though, Malcolm, What do you what would you tell
• 2:35:30
  your younger self? Probably pay attention.
• 2:35:38
  No, not pay attention to school more.
• 2:35:39
  Like you, you definitely have something.
• 2:35:41
  Probably. Probably just do better in
• 2:35:43
  school, honestly. Do you think school mattered?
• 2:35:46
  Be honest. Yeah, yeah, be.
• 2:35:48
  Fucking real 'cause I. Also graduate, I'm gonna tell
• 2:35:51
  you a completely different answer, I think than you.
• 2:35:53
  I don't really think school mattered that much.
• 2:35:55
  No, I didn't learn anything. Malcolm's only problem was he
• 2:35:57
  didn't know what he wanted to do.
• 2:35:59
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 2:35:59
  I never did, not honestly. But most it would probably just
• 2:36:03
  to be tell myself, like, just do whatever you want to do.
• 2:36:06
  It don't care. Yeah, 'cause I that's why I have
• 2:36:10
  regrets now, 'cause I went to college even though I didn't
• 2:36:12
  want to go to college. So just to make other people,
• 2:36:15
  yeah. You were there because you had
• 2:36:17
  to be there Almost, yeah. Not because you wanted to be.
• 2:36:19
  So you didn't obtain information.
• 2:36:20
  You didn't pick what you wanted to.
• 2:36:21
  Pick. Yeah, yeah.
• 2:36:22
  I mean, I learned a lot, but it's like I could have been
• 2:36:25
  doing some other shit that I really wanted to do instead of
• 2:36:27
  making people happy and doing what's Yeah, you seem to.
• 2:36:31
  Regret your school? Thing I I don't regret all the
• 2:36:34
  people I met and everything I I did, but.
• 2:36:37
  I love. School.
• 2:36:38
  I regret wasting the time going to school.
• 2:36:40
  I fucking love. School.
• 2:36:41
  I didn't feel. I love school.
• 2:36:42
  I love learning enough. I was like how much stuff that
• 2:36:45
  you learned in school do you use?
• 2:36:47
  Only only what I learned in college, not anything from high
• 2:36:51
  school. I learned it.
• 2:36:52
  I don't need to know what. What did you study in college?
• 2:36:55
  Business management. That's what I did, yeah.
• 2:36:57
  So for you, that's good. For what you do here, it's
• 2:36:59
  perfect actually. I I studied business management
• 2:37:02
  and when I tell you and and I. But there are things you know
• 2:37:06
  that you would not have known. I needed to use my degree like
• 2:37:10
  actually I my job now I used my degree to apply to it and like
• 2:37:15
  there's some things that I totally got from it, like for
• 2:37:19
  your. Your situation it's more like.
• 2:37:21
  Formulating emails and like how to act in the office like 8.
• 2:37:26
  Just standard HR behavior like those things, yeah?
• 2:37:30
  We don't have that here. Those things are my job either
• 2:37:32
  those were I. Don't know.
• 2:37:33
  You you could probably have crammed in all of those classes
• 2:37:36
  in a semester where I learned everything but what I did learn
• 2:37:40
  in college. Was how many beers I could drink
• 2:37:43
  now. It was.
• 2:37:44
  It was like it was how to survive, literally.
• 2:37:47
  Like, what can't I do on a regular basis?
• 2:37:49
  What should I be doing on a regular basis but not doing
• 2:37:52
  them? Well, that's really what school
• 2:37:53
  is. That's what talking.
• 2:37:55
  Like supposed to. Teach you how to become an
• 2:37:57
  adult. Literally.
• 2:37:58
  Like how do I get home by? Byproducts.
• 2:38:00
  Yeah. So I didn't go to college.
• 2:38:02
  I went to UTI Car School. I came right out of there, went
• 2:38:05
  to Mercedes-Benz, worked there for three years, quit there.
• 2:38:08
  I went to performance shop, built Subaru race cars for three
• 2:38:11
  years, and then went into the welding into the union.
• 2:38:14
  And I wish that I would have been 18 and just went into the
• 2:38:17
  union. Oh yeah, yeah.
• 2:38:19
  Oh my God, yeah, I should have skipped.
• 2:38:20
  Everything else. So you were into automotive?
• 2:38:22
  First, yeah, so I well, I can't say that completely because
• 2:38:25
  those 7:00-ish years of working on cars, it makes me yeah, I I
• 2:38:29
  can. I built my own race.
• 2:38:30
  Car. Yeah, you can do everything you
• 2:38:31
  do. I probably wouldn't be as well
• 2:38:33
  as I am now, obviously with the car, but the money side of it,
• 2:38:38
  like I make triple what I made at Mercedes-Benz and I was a
• 2:38:42
  master tech at Mercedes-Benz. Holy.
• 2:38:44
  Shit. Considered.
• 2:38:45
  Considered a master tech? Yeah, because at Mercedes, you
• 2:38:47
  take a test, all you do take an online test.
• 2:38:49
  You get bumped up, you get bumped up, you get bumped up.
• 2:38:51
  It doesn't go off like I was. Going to ask you how, how it was
• 2:38:54
  there. So I've learned a lot.
• 2:38:56
  You learn a lot of wiring stuff very fast.
• 2:38:58
  Those cars have miles of wiring in them.
• 2:39:00
  You learn can stuff, which now can stuff is all transferring
• 2:39:03
  over to the world that we're in everywhere.
• 2:39:06
  So I did learn a lot, which was good and definitely helps.
• 2:39:09
  And I learned working on cars like a lot and it did definitely
• 2:39:13
  help. And going to precision tuning
• 2:39:14
  and then learning strictly performance side of stuff as
• 2:39:17
  well coming in as a technician and not a parts changer made my
• 2:39:22
  life extremely easy for working on cars.
• 2:39:24
  Yeah, there's. I'm convinced in my head that
• 2:39:26
  there was not a single problem on any car that I can't figure
• 2:39:29
  out. That's awesome, Yeah.
• 2:39:31
  That's amazing. That's how I feel about my
• 2:39:33
  technician, Chris. You, you know Chris?
• 2:39:35
  Yeah, That's how I feel about him, 'cause when he runs into a
• 2:39:38
  problem, he's like, this might be the one where, I don't know
• 2:39:42
  if I I was like, yeah, yeah, whatever.
• 2:39:44
  And. Then he figures out there.
• 2:39:45
  For another fucking it turns. Into a thing where you will
• 2:39:47
  fight yourself to figure this car out.
• 2:39:49
  Yeah. Oh yeah.
• 2:39:50
  And then he figures it out and I'm like, holy.
• 2:39:52
  Shit, maybe some like some newer stuff that's out now if they
• 2:39:55
  haven't been in like that Mercedes world for a while, like
• 2:39:57
  without Mercedes special tools, I probably wouldn't be able to.
• 2:40:01
  But if you give me the right tools that I can figure this
• 2:40:03
  out, I will figure it out. 20%, That's a cool feeling.
• 2:40:06
  I think you took a really good path actually to where you are
• 2:40:09
  right now. Yeah, overall, yeah, but money
• 2:40:11
  wise. Yeah, but fuck the money, I
• 2:40:13
  mean. Yeah, hindsight 2020, everybody
• 2:40:15
  could say. Fuck the money.
• 2:40:17
  You know all that information about the Automotive World, so
• 2:40:20
  now you can apply it so that. You it does stand for fun.
• 2:40:22
  Yeah, you break down the side of the road like you know the right
• 2:40:24
  way to fix things. But you know, like I could
• 2:40:25
  ghetto fix this. I can get to the next town.
• 2:40:27
  Yeah, because those are the important.
• 2:40:29
  Ghetto fixes like the Jeep days when all my friends used to off
• 2:40:32
  road. Oh my God.
• 2:40:34
  Those are the fixes that matter the most.
• 2:40:38
  How you handle yourself in an emergency situation, Emergency
• 2:40:41
  situation like? Like Gary, he's like basically
• 2:40:43
  like my crew chief of my FD team.
• 2:40:44
  He can. He's the same way he can fix.
• 2:40:46
  Anything I would trust. After seeing Gary's?
• 2:40:48
  Oh, I would. That dude could fix anything.
• 2:40:50
  He can ghetto fix it. He can good fix it.
• 2:40:52
  He can wire, he can wrench. He's like getting decently good
• 2:40:55
  at welding up and helping him out with that.
• 2:40:57
  Like he's becoming like and he's fast.
• 2:41:00
  That dude is fast. Just feed him when he's hungry.
• 2:41:03
  Get out of his way. Oh, no, he's just, oh man,
• 2:41:06
  Hangry. It's not the word that.
• 2:41:09
  And he's not a morning person. Those take those two things
• 2:41:11
  away. Dude's an animal.
• 2:41:13
  That's awesome. So only hit him up 15 hours of
• 2:41:16
  10:50. Oh, he's a night guy before.
• 2:41:17
  Lunch. He is a night guy.
• 2:41:19
  Then after lunch. Dude, there's a lot of weird
• 2:41:21
  questions in here. A lot of them are from.
• 2:41:23
  Chris and a lot of them are from Chris now.
• 2:41:25
  That doesn't shock me this bit. This one's from Gerald Kelly
• 2:41:28
  before we get into the nap series.
• 2:41:31
  If you can only drive one car for the rest of your life, what
• 2:41:34
  would you pick? That's so easy for me, dude.
• 2:41:36
  I already know my answer. It's 300.
• 2:41:38
  No, it's not. It's not.
• 2:41:39
  It's not Sequoia. No.
• 2:41:43
  It would be a 9/11 Turbo G body 9/11.
• 2:41:46
  Turbo. All right, Ricky.
• 2:41:48
  Fat metal flares. I don't.
• 2:41:49
  Know, man. So given I have this like pass
• 2:41:52
  like working at Mercedes, I've driven a bunch of cars I can
• 2:41:54
  probably. Do not give me some
• 2:41:55
  Mercedes-Benz, no. No, no, I've I've driven like
• 2:41:57
  I've driven all the Collector Black Series stuff.
• 2:41:59
  That's bad ass. They're literally street legal
• 2:42:01
  race cars. Like they're ridiculous.
• 2:42:03
  I don't know enough about him, too.
• 2:42:04
  Yeah. So alright, just say anything.
• 2:42:05
  This isn't the guy. This isn't the car.
• 2:42:07
  But an SL65MG Black Series is a BI Turbo V12 carbon fiber
• 2:42:12
  streetcar. Would you rather have a BI Turbo
• 2:42:14
  son? Or a BI OK.
• 2:42:17
  Anyway, anyway, yeah, you thought we were done with.
• 2:42:18
  That if you if you put that thing in like the manual mode,
• 2:42:21
  which smack shifters obviously first gear traction control off
• 2:42:24
  and just let off the brake, it would spin the rear tires what
• 2:42:28
  what it was ridiculous. What is it by?
• 2:42:30
  By Turbo. Is it?
• 2:42:30
  Basically, it just means that the turbo systems are separate.
• 2:42:33
  They're separate throttle bodies for each side of the motor.
• 2:42:35
  They have two Ecus. Oh, OK, it's a complete wait,
• 2:42:38
  what? Oh yeah, that's like that's how
• 2:42:39
  the BMWs are like the M fives. the V eights 2 computers.
• 2:42:42
  I don't know if I like those anymore.
• 2:42:44
  Wait, what? Yeah.
• 2:42:45
  That sounds like. 10 There's one ECU per side of the motor.
• 2:42:48
  Oh yeah, and they talk to each other, obviously, but it's.
• 2:42:52
  Yeah. Open.
• 2:42:54
  Up. I'm coming in.
• 2:42:55
  Yeah, that's. You just blew my mind with the
• 2:42:58
  ECU thing. Oh yeah.
• 2:42:59
  But What Car would you do? I do like Porsches, Like a lot.
• 2:43:03
  That's the thing I'm like. I know that every single cool
• 2:43:07
  car, lame car, whatever is going to piss me off and break down in
• 2:43:11
  the most inconvenient time. It's all nuts and bolts.
• 2:43:14
  You're. Already thinking of the.
• 2:43:15
  Bag all do the same shit, man. Like, I I can tell you What Car
• 2:43:19
  I want to build. Like I really want.
• 2:43:21
  I met a guy at SEMA that builds adapter plates for STI
• 2:43:25
  transmission. So you can put almost any motor
• 2:43:27
  into an STI. And I want to do a VR6 turboed
• 2:43:31
  STI because you use the all-wheel drive system.
• 2:43:33
  What the fuck? Yeah, it'll just be cool.
• 2:43:35
  Different. That's what I want to do.
• 2:43:36
  Like a Like a Subaru Volkswagen. Like that.
• 2:43:43
  That five cylinder car with the. The Volvo, The Rally.
• 2:43:45
  Car, That shit sounds so good. It's.
• 2:43:47
  Just something different I want to do like I love the VR6
• 2:43:50
  motors. I think they're badass and like
• 2:43:52
  Subaru all-wheel drive system for a driver.
• 2:43:55
  It's real wheel drive based. It's got a good 6 speed transit.
• 2:43:57
  It can handle all the power. The things are bad ass.
• 2:44:00
  It'd just be, I think, a really fun St.
• 2:44:03
  So you still like Subaru's a little bit?
• 2:44:04
  Oh yeah, yeah, I think they're cool cars, definitely.
• 2:44:06
  I like. I think the motors are garbage,
• 2:44:08
  but everything else about them, you know.
• 2:44:10
  Yeah, I guess. Yeah.
• 2:44:12
  But listen, Subaru Motors job security.
• 2:44:15
  Yeah, that's true. Straight up job security.
• 2:44:18
  They be leaving here, right? They be leaving RTV in the
• 2:44:20
  engines and they're still working there.
• 2:44:21
  Dude, when I worked at Precision, we were doing a motor
• 2:44:23
  week per technician. Oh my.
• 2:44:28
  God, it's just crazy that people keep buying them and they keep
• 2:44:30
  doing the same shit too, dude. The STI came out over here. 2004
• 2:44:34
  same engine. How much horsepower did it make?
• 2:44:36
  300 The 2020 whatever the last version of the STI.
• 2:44:41
  How much horsepower did it make? 15 more wheel horsepower.
• 2:44:45
  Maybe. A 2020.
• 2:44:47
  Five. How many?
• 2:44:47
  Different turbos did they have to make?
• 2:44:49
  The VF 39 to 49 to this to that. I feel like there was like 3 or
• 2:44:52
  4. And they only made a little more
• 2:44:54
  horsepower. Then they went to a AVCS and
• 2:44:56
  they went dual AVCS and you're just like it continues to make
• 2:45:00
  the same. And they just and they changed
• 2:45:02
  the internal manufacturer and it.
• 2:45:05
  Apparently that's what really fucked them up.
• 2:45:07
  Yeah, like whoever's building the Pistons and.
• 2:45:09
  Yeah, but it's crazy the Australians don't have the
• 2:45:11
  Piston problems. Do they have the same engines
• 2:45:13
  though? No, They have the two OS, right?
• 2:45:15
  Well, they have two fives too. They don't have piston problems
• 2:45:18
  well. They're making them out of
• 2:45:20
  different metal over there, down under.
• 2:45:22
  I don't think they're yeah, they they probably are getting
• 2:45:24
  different engines. If they're getting the exact
• 2:45:25
  same engines and they don't have problems, then maybe something
• 2:45:27
  with the fuel. I don't know.
• 2:45:29
  I don't know. Yeah, it's interesting, but
• 2:45:32
  nothing beats the JDM 2 point O. That's the engine, dude.
• 2:45:36
  That shit sounds awesome, I will say.
• 2:45:37
  That's the engine. That shit sounds awesome.
• 2:45:38
  There's a one of my favorite. Torque.
• 2:45:41
  You're talking about the two O 7 that has like, yeah, it's a.
• 2:45:43
  Factory. Ported.
• 2:45:44
  Heads. Yeah, yeah, like.
• 2:45:45
  They're they're 6. Twin Scroll Turbo or some shit
• 2:45:48
  and. So Kevin Baldy is another tuner.
• 2:45:50
  He owns a com our shop called Gold Lab works down in South
• 2:45:53
  Jersey. They do all like M fives,
• 2:45:55
  Lamborghinis, Ferrari stuff he now, but when he first came into
• 2:45:58
  tuning World he was doing Subarus and he had a gnarly 2O
• 2:46:02
  seven. Oh yeah.
• 2:46:05
  So Cleo and Kevin they have you guys ever heard the Carberry
• 2:46:08
  tune? Carberry.
• 2:46:09
  Why does that sound? Call it Carberry ROM.
• 2:46:11
  It's like the you can't do it on the electric bottle body.
• 2:46:14
  Subarus it was like so like the O2 to O4, WR, XS basically and
• 2:46:19
  maybe like a couple other ones. It's a it's like a hacked rally
• 2:46:22
  ROM. This guy was using in the rally
• 2:46:24
  world and he brought it over and it's free and you.
• 2:46:27
  It's like as long as you support him and help him with stuff, you
• 2:46:31
  can use it. And like you can take a regular
• 2:46:34
  driving bug eye and you hit the defroster switch and that thing
• 2:46:38
  goes full race car mode. What the fuck?
• 2:46:41
  Rolling antilag like oh man, yeah.
• 2:46:44
  That's crazy. It was sick.
• 2:46:45
  That cannot be good for the fucking engine.
• 2:46:48
  I know that for a hell no, OK, 'cause I'm like, 'cause my my
• 2:46:52
  little brother has a bug eye and I'm like, he would have.
• 2:46:55
  Found that. Said something by now about
• 2:46:57
  this, but if if he. Not many tuners use it anymore.
• 2:47:00
  If he. Hasn't said it.
• 2:47:01
  If they were in it back in the day, they'd know about.
• 2:47:04
  It a lot of guys. Don't really use it.
• 2:47:05
  He's had it for a very quite probably over.
• 2:47:07
  It's like open. Source tuning, and I think it's
• 2:47:09
  kind of becoming a thing of the past, but like that shit.
• 2:47:11
  So him and Cleo, they they were so good at it.
• 2:47:14
  Like he used to go to Philly with this thing and beat people
• 2:47:16
  up with it and they would get pissed 'cause the thing would
• 2:47:20
  roll in, sound perfectly normal. He'd go out the race, oop,
• 2:47:24
  Defroster switch, everything just completely went to full
• 2:47:28
  race car. That's pretty yeah, Fuck anti.
• 2:47:31
  Like we need to know that. Shift was tuned into it like it
• 2:47:34
  was. It just was something that's
• 2:47:35
  like, so 'cause it's stock computer, yeah, so it has like,
• 2:47:39
  it can drive perfect. You can drive this thing across
• 2:47:42
  the country. Oh, I want to race one boop
• 2:47:44
  defroster switch. Yeah, the stock computer.
• 2:47:46
  Going to be getting. They can do a lot of shit with
• 2:47:48
  them, yeah. They do a pretty cool.
• 2:47:49
  Shit. Getting into Subarus, pressing
• 2:47:50
  the defroster switch, you know Fucking yo, does this have that
• 2:47:53
  thing? Shit.
• 2:47:55
  Nope. Damn it.
• 2:47:57
  Chris Knapp. All right.
• 2:47:58
  Oh, here we go. Let's go.
• 2:47:59
  I've been saving these because some of these are kind of funny.
• 2:48:02
  These are all from Chris Knapp. Shout out to Chris.
• 2:48:04
  Knapp. How many?
• 2:48:05
  Four. Oh, it's not bad, I'll expect.
• 2:48:07
  Who can do the most push ups out of the faction crew?
• 2:48:10
  I say Malcolm. That's what Chris said.
• 2:48:13
  Yeah, I'm gonna easily say Malcolm.
• 2:48:14
  Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
• 2:48:16
  I'm not gonna say easily. Wait a minute.
• 2:48:17
  Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
• 2:48:18
  It's just about to go down. It's not.
• 2:48:20
  Chris and I know it's not me. It's not me.
• 2:48:22
  It could. It's not me.
• 2:48:24
  This might be an after Work Act after pod activity.
• 2:48:27
  But we will maybe host the series put on.
• 2:48:29
  Because I feel like. No.
• 2:48:34
  How many? How many can you do?
• 2:48:35
  Straight, Frank? Straight.
• 2:48:37
  No stop. Straight.
• 2:48:38
  No, stop. Come up you little punk.
• 2:48:40
  How many you got? Yeah, you can't stop.
• 2:48:42
  Come on Frank, like an honest answer.
• 2:48:44
  Yeah, non-stop. Dude, I feel like, Malcolm, blow
• 2:48:48
  your shit out of the water, man. This guy's got 8%.
• 2:48:51
  Did you get? That when you.
• 2:48:53
  In the hotel. Yeah, I guess.
• 2:48:55
  Did 95. In a.
• 2:48:57
  Row. Yeah.
• 2:48:58
  I think Malcolm wins. Yeah, my I my cut off is
• 2:49:01
  definitely 100. I can do 50.
• 2:49:03
  I can't even do that many in a row.
• 2:49:05
  But I want to say it's it's lower than that.
• 2:49:07
  But, but I don't know. I was never in a competition.
• 2:49:09
  I feel like you hit a wall and you're like, I can't do anymore.
• 2:49:13
  I mean. I at some point I get angry.
• 2:49:14
  Just how many push ups do I do? I do, I do.
• 2:49:16
  I do a day. I do 60 or 80 push ups every
• 2:49:19
  morning, but The thing is, I don't.
• 2:49:20
  I don't. Straight through, all right.
• 2:49:23
  So so. You might hit that wall.
• 2:49:24
  I'll do 402020, so I could definitely do.
• 2:49:29
  I could probably do that many in one shot, no problem.
• 2:49:32
  You could, Yeah, you could probably.
• 2:49:33
  Do, but that's. 8080, so it'd be close.
• 2:49:37
  I mean, I do think it would be. Close.
• 2:49:39
  It would be less. You'd probably do 70, probably
• 2:49:42
  like 6570. Yeah, 60 to 70.
• 2:49:46
  I don't know. Malcolm just weighs nothing
• 2:49:48
  exactly. That's the aim, man.
• 2:49:50
  I put in the work. That's why he can easily be in
• 2:49:53
  there and and what kind of and what kind of 100 push ups is
• 2:49:57
  Malcolm doing? Is he going?
• 2:49:58
  No, he does real push ups. No, He's seen it, Frank.
• 2:50:00
  He's seen it. But like in this competition, I
• 2:50:03
  would have you guys go down, yeah.
• 2:50:05
  That's gonna be. That's gonna be a problem for.
• 2:50:06
  Me probably down, if anyone. Not Malcolm.
• 2:50:09
  Yeah, no, it if we're doing it like that, like going off
• 2:50:12
  somebody else's count, then it's gonna be way less 'cause you're
• 2:50:15
  gonna. Yeah, you're not going.
• 2:50:17
  To lose momentum, Yeah, it's more tiring to go slower.
• 2:50:20
  All right. So maybe Malcolm?
• 2:50:21
  I think it would be Malcolm. Now I'll try 1 to get my shit
• 2:50:24
  up. Now, now, now Malcolm.
• 2:50:27
  Now Frankie's going to be waking up every morning.
• 2:50:29
  Doing 80 straight tomorrow. 80 Frankie.
• 2:50:31
  'S going to come in this place tomorrow like my rotator.
• 2:50:33
  Cuff, yeah. I'm 100% doing. 80.
• 2:50:36
  Straight tomorrow. I'm trying to land paperwork
• 2:50:38
  just like can't fucking move my arms.
• 2:50:42
  Chris or Ricky, who's winning in a fight.
• 2:50:45
  I think Ricky would. Chris, Chris, our technician.
• 2:50:49
  I'm sorry. Chris or Ricky?
• 2:50:50
  I feel like Ricky's a union welder and is moving fucking
• 2:50:54
  pieces of metal around regularly.
• 2:50:56
  Yeah, Chris, I don't know, man. I.
• 2:50:58
  Think I got him. Yeah, I think so.
• 2:50:59
  Too confident? Myself, I'm not saying.
• 2:51:01
  If Chris stopped hitting that. Vape.
• 2:51:02
  I'd probably take him. Shouldn't have vape.
• 2:51:05
  Yikes. He's a vapor.
• 2:51:07
  He's a vapor. I'm big vapor.
• 2:51:09
  He's gonna run out of stamina real quick.
• 2:51:12
  No, it's it's. I think.
• 2:51:14
  Dude, look at Ricky's hands, man.
• 2:51:16
  You don't think them shits? Were hurt.
• 2:51:18
  He just goes. I also I used to wrestle too.
• 2:51:20
  Oh. It's over.
• 2:51:22
  It's all. Over middle school, though, it's
• 2:51:23
  two. Years.
• 2:51:24
  Well, it's not that great part. Two of the question.
• 2:51:26
  Winner gets a smooch. Guess who won?
• 2:51:28
  Ricky. Chris.
• 2:51:31
  Chris. Go crash in your check.
• 2:51:35
  This one's another one from Chris.
• 2:51:36

  There's Sneezy. I just know Dopey.
• 2:52:00

  He's the dealer. Yeah, Doc's the dealer.
• 2:52:55
  Fuck. Sleepy.
• 2:52:56
  That would be Chris. God damn, he's.
• 2:53:00
  Always sleepy. You're right.
• 2:53:02
  He is. Oh man.
• 2:53:03
  Grumpy. That could be me.
• 2:53:05
  I also could be you. Yeah, that could be me.
• 2:53:07
  I hate. To say it is you all right.
• 2:53:09
  Well, this one's more driving related, God forbid.
• 2:53:12
  Hey, Zeus is dopey. What is your favorite FD track
• 2:53:16
  and why is it Saint Louis I? Fucking.
• 2:53:19
  Hate. It for Ricky, but y'all should
• 2:53:21
  answer too. You don't want to hear my
• 2:53:22
  answer? Chris knows I hate that track.
• 2:53:24
  Saint Louis. Yeah, I got 4th place there
• 2:53:26
  once, which was cool. It's like I did good there.
• 2:53:28
  But like, I just you go as fast as you can in a short line and
• 2:53:32
  then you go as slow as you possibly can.
• 2:53:34
  Then you go as fast as you can again.
• 2:53:35
  Oh my God. And then you go as fucking slow
• 2:53:37
  as you can again from the last turn.
• 2:53:39
  I don't like the track. I could drive it.
• 2:53:41
  I could drive it. Well, I just do not like it.
• 2:53:44
  I like watching Utah. Utah's sick driving.
• 2:53:47
  Utah is sick. You're just floored the whole
• 2:53:50
  time. Yeah, I heard that it it's so
• 2:53:52
  high up the tunes get. Fucked.
• 2:53:53
  Yeah, they do. You have to adjust them while
• 2:53:55
  you're there, yeah. That's crazy.
• 2:53:57
  Utah's sick Irwindale's my favorite track.
• 2:54:00
  Love Irwindale. Well, we all answered wrong
• 2:54:01
  because our favorite track is actually Raceway Park, New
• 2:54:05
  Jersey. I like long.
• 2:54:07
  Beach, home of East Coast Drift. School Home of East Coast Drift
• 2:54:09
  School. Fill up those schedules.
• 2:54:10
  Tap in I. Like Long Beach, I feel like
• 2:54:12
  Long Beach is 1 block drivers probably hate.
• 2:54:14
  That's Yeah, 'cause of the multiple different pavements
• 2:54:16
  that are there, you cross like five or six different pavements,
• 2:54:20
  so your car just acts differently.
• 2:54:22
  I just like it, 'cause it's a street.
• 2:54:23
  Course, yeah. And that's, that's what I
• 2:54:24
  picture when I think of FD. I'm like, I'm like, oh, they're
• 2:54:27
  coming down that like, yeah. So I don't think I put
• 2:54:30
  Englishtown as my favorite because it's like my home track
• 2:54:33
  I. Drive.
• 2:54:34
  Yeah, you just know. You.
• 2:54:34
  Yeah, I live in like I almost don't think of it as an FD track
• 2:54:37
  to myself. Where people whose home track is
• 2:54:40
  Saint Louis like Derrick Madison might say English Town would be
• 2:54:43
  like his favorite isn't. That crazy?
• 2:54:45
  Yeah. Like I'm I'm like a little.
• 2:54:47
  Jaded to it. Yeah, I'm just, I'm so.
• 2:54:48
  Close to the naps and like I'm so like in good with them and
• 2:54:52
  stuff like that. Like I go there all the time.
• 2:54:53
  I feel like it's just a given that if you're from this area,
• 2:54:57
  that that's like probably one of your top favorites, right?
• 2:55:00
  Hell yeah. I know what question you're
• 2:55:02
  saving for last. Which one?
• 2:55:05
  Do. You get a chance to ride your
• 2:55:08
  bike still. Dude was a Ripper.
• 2:55:10
  Do you get a chance to ride your bike still?
• 2:55:12
  Dude was a Ripper. I think he's talking about your
• 2:55:14
  bicycle. Yeah, not as much as I want to.
• 2:55:16
  Yeah. Like I still, Yeah, I still do
• 2:55:18
  here and there. Like could.
• 2:55:18
  You still do a flat. Could you, could you, could you
• 2:55:21
  bar spin? I was never a bar spin.
• 2:55:24
  See when you let go of them. So I can put my foot in the back
• 2:55:27
  peg, just do a pick up bar, spin, no problem.
• 2:55:29
  Easy peasy. You want my feet in a crank spin
• 2:55:31
  of those things? No, that's not good.
• 2:55:34
  I've landed like maybe one tail whip without my feet on the
• 2:55:38
  pedals. I've used to do back flips.
• 2:55:41
  I tried. One front flip destroyed myself.
• 2:55:45
  If you gotta let go of the bars, same thing with a kick flip.
• 2:55:48
  You gotta get off the board once.
• 2:55:51
  Once every. Skate not on a cap cap.
• 2:55:54
  Cap and Ollie and Ollie you leave both feet.
• 2:55:57
  You just. Your feet could float in an
• 2:55:59
  alley, for sure. Maybe momentarily, yeah.
• 2:56:03
  But yeah, no. They're definitely in the air.
• 2:56:05
  Is this should I do this someone?
• 2:56:06
  Was the last question. This was the last question.
• 2:56:07
  Little bit of something. There you go.
• 2:56:10
  What sounds the best 1J2J or 1 1/2 J?
• 2:56:17
  1JZ non VVTI. Square front.
• 2:56:22
  Square front. That's what they that's what the
• 2:56:24
  oldies call. It best motor in the whole
• 2:56:26
  world. Daryl's got one in the garage.
• 2:56:29
  I'll fucking put that shit in. You should.
• 2:56:31
  Dude there or. The East Motors Man.
• 2:56:33
  Dude, I can't wait till he gets that.
• 2:56:35
  What's wrong with the way A2J sounds?
• 2:56:37
  They got like a different sound, yeah.
• 2:56:38
  This is a little different. It's a Cam, the variable Cam.
• 2:56:41
  No, it's. I mean not, I mean you could.
• 2:56:42
  There's non VV TI-2 JS. Also, oh OK, the.
• 2:56:45
  Super head, I think. Yeah, just the way the, the flow
• 2:56:47
  difference and stuff like that. It's a little, I think the one
• 2:56:49
  JS are a little more high pitched like A1J, VVTI, you
• 2:56:53
  could hear that thing from across like E Town.
• 2:56:56
  You're like that's the 1JG VVTI. Yeah, got stock turbo on it and
• 2:56:59
  everything. Like you can just hear it and
• 2:57:01
  no, that's. What you want, Carl?
• 2:57:02

  That monkey's dead. That was a pretty crazy story.
• 2:59:39
  The whole time I was, I was like, wow, why do we not know
• 2:59:42
  this? I feel like he he probably would
• 2:59:44
  have told us this story already, but maybe it was in a deep
• 2:59:48
  crevice of his brain somewhere. And I still don't believe that
• 2:59:52
  call ran a 5K through the Great Adventure Safari.
• 2:59:56
  That is a fucking lie. I don't believe that.
• 2:59:59
  I. Can't believe someone sent us
• 3:00:00
  $20 on a live stream for me to steal a zebra, but thank you
• 3:00:05
  guys for that. Thank you Ricky Hoffman for
• 3:00:07

  new insight on pro spec driving and all of all the Formula D
• 3:00:29
  stuff. So it was very helpful.

  And good luck on your upcoming comeback to pro spec.

• 3:00:40
  He's got his head on right he he he's in it for the right reasons
• 3:00:44
  He, he literally, Ricky literally was just like, well I

  spent almost the same amount of money doing grassroots so.
• 3:00:51
  Might as well travel the country at the same time.
• 3:00:52
  Yeah, might as well. Travel the country and do this
• 3:00:54

• 3:02:13
  Yeah, that would be good. We don't have anywhere to put
