  name in our industry for over 15 years, supplying us with tons of

  fluid power products such as power steering cooler kits, oil
• 2:28

  function, simplicity, quality and aesthetic.
• 2:43
  All of their products are user friendly and easy to install

  while of course looking the part.
• 2:48
  The quality of their products has only increased over the
• 2:50
  years and now with Front Street Drift Club being a sponsored
• 2:53
  team of Chase Bays, you can guarantee the products are
• 2:56
  stress tested as well. I'm currently digging their
• 2:59
  compact intercooler sprayer reservoir kit.
• 3:01
  This kit includes a pump and pigtail to wire it up to any
• 3:04
  switch you want. I've been a big fan of sleek
• 3:06
  looking OEM style intercooler sprayers ever since Subaru had
• 3:09
  one on the STI and this kit provides you with what you need
• 3:13
  to get started. If you need any more info on any
• 3:16
  of their products, make sure to take a look at their product

  This podcast is also sponsored by Automotive Specialty Wraps.
• 3:39
  Automotive Specialty Wraps is a company specializing in paint
• 3:42
  protection, film vehicle wraps, ceramic coatings, and window
• 3:45
  tinting located in Fairlawn, New Jersey.
• 3:48
  Owned and operated by car enthusiasts and Drifters, their
• 3:50
  technicians have over 10 years of experience in the industry.
• 3:53
  Ceramic coating is one of their specialities and is the service
• 3:56
  they offer that caught my eye first.
• 3:58
  In the 60s, NASA and the US military formulated a ceramic
• 4:02
  coating to be used on spacecraft and planes.
• 4:05
  This coating would be able to protect them from harsh
• 4:07
  conditions. Following that, in the early
• 4:10
  2000s, ceramic coatings were revamped to be used in the
• 4:13
  automotive industry. These coatings give your cars
• 4:16
  paint extra protection while also making it shine.
• 4:19
  Wax only lasts for a couple of weeks at most, but ceramic
• 4:22
  coatings last for a year or longer.
• 4:24
  They perform a full 2 stage Polish to the car beforehand to
• 4:27
  make sure the vehicle is in perfect condition before
• 4:30
  applying the coating. This service can also be applied
• 4:33
  to wheels, which would be the best thing you can do to a new
• 4:35
  set of wheels you just picked up if you are looking to protect
• 4:37
  them for years to come. As mentioned, they also offer
• 4:40
  window tinting and paint protection film installations.
• 4:43
  Now everyone knows what window tinting is, but these guys offer
• 4:46
  carbon or ceramic tinting depending on your needs.
• 4:49
  Paint protection film or PPF is a great idea for those new
• 4:53
  vehicle owners that want to protect their paint before it
• 4:55
  gets chipped up driving down the highway.
• 4:58
  I always suggest having at least the front end done in PPF like
• 5:01
  the front bumper, fenders and hood.
• 5:04
  ASW is now offering mobile detailing and this is no basic
• 5:07
  car wash, it's more of a 2 hour spa session for your car using
• 5:10
  special soaps designed to extract toxins out of your
• 5:14
  paint. And the best part is they will
• 5:15
  come to your house, job or even our shop when your car is being
• 5:19
  serviced to get the wash done. From protecting your tow rigs
• 5:22
  exterior to full delivery installations on your drift car,
• 5:25
  they have you covered. You can contact them at
• 5:27
  automotive specialtywraps.com and make sure to mention our
• 5:30
  podcast. They are currently offering 10%
• 5:33
  off mobile washes and tinting services for our listeners.
• 5:36
  Limitless Auto Fab is a fabrication shop and retailer
• 5:39
  located in Illinois. They produce bash bars and catch
• 5:42
  cans for a bunch of popular models in the drifting
• 5:45
  community. We started selling their
• 5:46
  products earlier this year and have heard nothing but great
• 5:49
  things since. Limitless Bash bars are honestly
• 5:52
  the industry standard right now. Fabricated from inch and a half
• 5:54
  mild steel tubes, these bars are designed to take the impact of
• 5:58
  light collisions in order to avoid or minimize damage to your
• 6:00
  body or frame. My favorite part about these
• 6:03
  bash bars is that they are designed in a way that helps
• 6:05
  hold most aftermarket bumpers up at the correct height, unlike a
• 6:09
  lot of other aftermarket bars that require you to either Weld
• 6:11
  additional brackets on or install those big foam rubber
• 6:15
  pieces to raise the bumpers up to avoid bumper sag.
• 6:18
  This is a huge pet peeve of mine when installing bash bars at the
• 6:21
  shop, so I'm really glad about this feature.
• 6:25
  Gone are the days of trying to keep your rusty rear factory
• 6:28
  crash bar because you are worried about bumper fitment
• 6:30
  issues with an aftermarket one. Their bars also come with
• 6:33
  jacking points and an optional license plate brackets, so
• 6:36
  everything you need is right there from the start.
• 6:38
  Limitless Auto also sells catch cans for a handful of specific
• 6:41
  models. These cans are built in house
• 6:44
  and chassis specific. We have used these cans before
• 6:47
  in the shop with no issues and they look great as well.
• 6:50
  The guys over at Limitless are on social media as well at
• 6:53
  Limitless under score Auto under score Fab.
• 6:56
  So please make sure to check out their Instagram and give them a
• 6:58
  follow. They post photos of all the
• 7:00
  drift cards using their products from Front Street Drift Club to

  Welcome everybody to the Faction After Hours podcast.
• 8:28
  We're here to bring you another episode.
• 8:29
  I'm a little late today. Not really, but.
• 8:33
  We're we're here with another guest.
• 8:34
  We were just chatting for a little bit as you guys heard,
• 8:37
  but we have Joe from Actionfab. Oh, I'm point, Eddie's I'm
• 8:40
  point. Dude, dude, why do we?
• 8:41
  Even need. Malcolm, we don't.
• 8:44
  We have Eddie here because he's hanging out and obviously me and
• 8:46
  Frankie, but yeah, yeah. So.
• 8:48
  So Tom's car is at your house once a month.
• 8:51
  What if it's a bad season? So that means Tom.
• 8:54
  Front Street Tom. What Is there a bad season for
• 8:57
  Tom? Yeah, I feel like every season
• 8:59
  is the same. No, no.
• 9:01
  There was that one year where I feel like he he was just
• 9:04
  breaking. Shit, give me an estimated year
• 9:07
  that you think that was. The car was orange, the red.
• 9:10
  OK, yeah, see I'm thinking like further back in that when there
• 9:13
  was an even worse year when it was like 2 engines like or some
• 9:16
  shit. Yeah, I feel like.
• 9:19
  One of the first times I ever talked to Tom, like one of our
• 9:21
  first DM exchanges was like he was rebuilding an Sr. like right
• 9:26
  there. And I thought that that was the
• 9:27
  craziest thing because like the next day he it was like a
• 9:29
  picture of it on. I feel like that was the one
• 9:31
  that he put the head on here, but I don't know if that's the
• 9:34
  same 1 he has right now. I feel like he had pretty good
• 9:38
  luck with the last few engines. Would you say I?
• 9:40
  Think he just tries. Hard it's been transmissions
• 9:43
  have been his weak link, right? Yeah, yeah.
• 9:45
  And then now he's got a winter's quick change diff for his Street
• 9:48
  car. So that's.
• 9:50
  So you deal with them. Got a pro Sr. car?
• 9:52
  Yeah. But like, yeah, the Sr. part is
• 9:56
  like underlined a bunch of times.
• 9:58
  He's like, I'm never going to break anything now.
• 10:00
  Exactly. We'll.
• 10:02
  See, I mean, I guess it's sick. But thanks for coming on the
• 10:04
  pod. You're for those of you who are
• 10:05
  listening that don't know Joe, you're now a full time
• 10:08
  fabricator. Yep, Yep, full time.
• 10:11
  So were you working at a shop before or you just took the leap
• 10:14
  to go on your own? Or were you doing this as?
• 10:16
  I was doing it on the side for a few years.
• 10:20
  I moved back to Jersey summer 23 and like picked right up where I
• 10:26
  left off. Where?
• 10:27
  Where were you before? I was in Arizona for a couple
• 10:30
  years. Yeah.
• 10:31
  Oh, I bet. That's what I said.
• 10:32
  I bet, I bet you guys, I looked right at Frankie because this
• 10:36
  guy jerks off to Arizona. I've.
• 10:39
  Oh man, I love. You did that that motorcycle
• 10:42
  trip. Yeah, yeah, that ruined me.
• 10:44
  Now I just want to go back every.
• 10:45
  Fucking. But I was going to do that like
• 10:46
  once a week. Like if he was out there, he's
• 10:48
  not even going to do it. Yeah.
• 10:49
  I would love to go back man, but why?
• 10:51
  So did you just move back for work?
• 10:53
  I was about to ask like. No.
• 10:55
  SO my wife was pregnant and OK, my immediate family is in
• 11:01
  Arizona, my parents, my siblings, the rest of our
• 11:05
  family's pretty much back here. So it just made more sense to
• 11:07
  have the baby close to the rest of the family.
• 11:13
  But I was lucky enough to move back with the job, so yeah, it
• 11:18
  all worked out. Hell yeah, there we go.
• 11:20
  Yeah, and he quit a union job to fabricate Tom's car.
• 11:25
  Is a corporate job. Oh, it was OK.
• 11:28
  It's technically a corporate job.
• 11:29
  I'm like, damn, bro. I mean, dude, you, you got to,
• 11:31
  you got to be confident to do that though, because that's
• 11:34
  pretty serious. That shit is scary.
• 11:36
  Yeah, you got scary. You just mentioned you had a
• 11:37
  baby. I got 2 now.
• 11:39
  Fuck yeah, like and and you took this leap.
• 11:42
  Like you got that. That takes some confidence.
• 11:44
  Like good on you bro. Like, yeah, I, I tried to do it
• 11:47
  as smart as I could. Like I I built up a lot of my
• 11:50
  schedule's booked out pretty far right now.
• 11:52
  So I was talking about that earlier.
• 11:54
  I was like, you're busy, right? I, I forget who we talked about
• 11:57
  this with, but once, once that person, I think it was you.
• 12:01
  Told me. Told me that you do drag stuff.
• 12:03
  I'm like, dude, I forget that there's like again in the little
• 12:07
  bubble, but like, I forget that there's a lot.
• 12:09
  He's in there, multiple bubbles. Crazy, yeah.
• 12:12
  There's there's a lot of Motorsports out there.
• 12:15
  Fuck yeah and they all need shit welded.
• 12:16
  And you're not even doing just cages or anything, I'm just
• 12:18
  thinking about cages and shit. You're probably.
• 12:20
  Doing cages have been my primary, but yeah, I'm doing a
• 12:24
  little bit of everything. What What's the craziest thing
• 12:27
  you've got in the shop right now?
• 12:30
  Right now I just had a BMW leave.
• 12:34
  It was a 2019 M 340 or something like that.
• 12:38
  Those are. Pretty new.
• 12:39
  Yeah, relatively new, but all these S 58 guys or whatever, I
• 12:43
  may have messed that. Up.
• 12:45
  I don't know what it is. I think it's AB 58.
• 12:47
  B Something like that. What else?
• 12:48
  Yeah. We're fucked.
• 12:50
  Somebody out there like. What is that's?
• 12:52
  Not in there. Yeah, something's gonna be
• 12:53
  pissed. No, these new BMW motors have
• 12:55
  been crazy. So this car set the some kind of
• 13:03
  record already, I think it was the S58-B58 whatever record
• 13:08
  already and because. It's probably like a stock block
• 13:10
  record or something. Some stock engine record.
• 13:12
  Yeah, so it's getting like a built motor now and all kinds of
• 13:16
  other stuff. So off the trailer, he said it.
• 13:20
  It should be in the sevens pretty quickly.
• 13:24
  Yeah, it's ridiculous. Frozen.
• 13:25
  Saying. The Sevens.
• 13:27
  And the car is like a brand new car I know.
• 13:29
  Dude, 2019 No, no, if you think of it now, it's crazy.
• 13:33
  That shit is. Six years old is.
• 13:35
  Crazy that is 6 years old. Yeah, but you got to take away
• 13:39
  the two years for COVID, so it's only four years old.
• 13:43
  Dude, that really? I try to.
• 13:44
  I try. To it's a real thing.
• 13:46
  Though dude, I had to realize because my roommate just moved
• 13:48
  out Pat. Oh, he just moved out.
• 13:50
  Or just moved. Yeah, he was trying.
• 13:51
  No, he was. He was buying, in the process of
• 13:53
  buying a house. Now he moved.
• 13:53
  Out Malcolm's back, didn't even realize he was there bro.
• 13:56
  Malcolm's back. Oh shit, Malcolm's here.
• 14:01
  Oh, oh, no, he moved out. I had I had a fourth roommate
• 14:04
  for an interim, but it's it's a house usually has three.
• 14:08
  And like I didn't I didn't want it to make it by Eddington.
• 14:12
  Thank you so much. Eddington.
• 14:14
  I didn't want to make it seem like we were hyped that he now
• 14:19
  gave up his garage spot, but me and Daryl, my roommate, are just
• 14:24
  super geek. Yeah, like last day, he said.
• 14:27
  All right, bro. The next day it was leaf blow.
• 14:31
  Take down the takedown, the boot, take that, throw
• 14:33
  everything out, reorganize the whole garage.
• 14:36
  Shit of sick. Yeah, it looks cool with those
• 14:38
  two cars in there. And I'm like damn.
• 14:40
  We did this. It's so cool.
• 14:43
  You got 2 Toyotas too, 21 JS. Yeah.
• 14:46
  And you have a Toyota? Yeah.
• 14:47
  Do you have multiple JS? No, that thing outside is not.
• 14:50
  That's you, right? That's not you, that's me.
• 14:52
  That's I just bought that. The trunk, yeah, that shit is
• 14:56
  dude. The IS next to.
• 14:58
  It yeah, I was going to park my truck next to it, and then I
• 15:01
  decided not to. So that's yeah, the truck's
• 15:04
  pretty big. I was like, I don't want my shit
• 15:06
  to look bad. You.
• 15:07
  Probably look mad cool driving around it as you look tough as
• 15:10
  hell. It's diesel too, right?
• 15:11
  Yeah. Oh man, that thing rolls coal
• 15:14
  and all that. Yeah, it's great.
• 15:15
  Oh my goodness. Fuck, I'm.
• 15:17
  Just thinking about this 2019 BMW that someone destroyed.
• 15:20
  Six years old. No, but yeah, I, I don't really.

  How is it for COVID? How long have you been doing the

• 15:33
  Yeah. You were born, huh?
• 15:34
  You were born. I started and right away
• 15:39

• 15:42
  Arizona doesn't really have an offseason.
• 15:44
  So everybody's like, all right, let's fix our city cars now.
• 15:48
  I forget, you were not here. You were over there.

  That was a that was a nationwide thing, dude.

  I don't know, bro. You go to New York City, it was
• 16:06
  like the end of the world, but you came over to Jersey and it
• 16:08

• 16:10
  that time. Really, bro?
• 16:12
  Yeah, that was that was like when my grandfather.
• 16:14
  Were you there? When Yeah, like, no, not when it
• 16:18

• 16:19
  already established. Rules were made like people.
• 16:21
  There were expectations of people.
• 16:23
  Yeah, bro, I had to like go around.
• 16:26
  I'm mad LAX because I'm fucking from here.
• 16:28
  I'm like just put my mask on, bro.
• 16:30
  They had you wear like the a face thing and like there was
• 16:34
  washing hands everywhere. I'm not saying Philippines is a
• 16:37
  bad place but like man, it's some of those areas are really
• 16:40
  dirty and like they treated that like it was fucking distracted I
• 16:44
  feel like. That's why a lot of countries
• 16:45
  treated it. I think America was the only one
• 16:46
  that wasn't really doing. That dude, it was nuts.
• 16:49
  Yeah. But yo, Arizona's probably you
• 16:51
  could be outside. It was cold in winter here.
• 16:53
  Yeah, right. And like, you had to be inside.
• 16:56
  Yeah, that was. Ringing.
• 16:58
  Yeah, the phone is ringing. Malcolm, can you just go look at
• 17:00
  that, just in case it's that guy?
• 17:01
  Just. Like the four thing and then you
• 17:03
  could. Just yeah, yeah, sorry.
• 17:06
  Yep. Just had a customer sorry about
• 17:08
  that car so I want to make sure it's not him.
• 17:11
  No, but yet there. So it shut down.
• 17:13
  But then like, yeah, I guess people were building cars a lot
• 17:17
  during COVID, so you were probably.
• 17:19
  Yeah, people kind of treated it like their their offseason, at
• 17:22
  least in Arizona, cuz you know, they drive all year long.
• 17:26
  It's funny. People will stop driving for
• 17:29
  like July and August because it's 120°.
• 17:31
  Yeah, it's the opposite. Yeah, it's ridiculous.
• 17:33
  Piping, huh? Yeah.
• 17:34
  Oh my God. Like, you could probably melt
• 17:37
  shoes walking around. Yeah.
• 17:39
  On a blacktop. Oh, people, I mean, I know
• 17:41
  people don't ride the motorcycles in the summer.
• 17:43
  That's their, that's their winter.
• 17:44
  Yeah, Yeah. So.
• 17:45
  For real. Yeah, like they really just
• 17:48
  don't. I mean, I'm sure there's some
• 17:49
  people that do, but. You a motorcycle guy?
• 17:54
  That mean that would be. That means he had one and got
• 17:56
  rid of it. That would be too easy for you.
• 17:58
  Like what's a couple like pipes that you got to, well, like to
• 18:00
  make a bike like? That is.
• 18:02
  Too easy for you now like. Wow, I got enough things to
• 18:05
  spend money on. Dude, anymore I only asked
• 18:07
  because I was working on mine and yo that shit runs good as
• 18:10
  hell. I forgot to.
• 18:12
  I forgot to put oil in it and I rode it around the block.
• 18:15
  Oh yeah, shit was running so good.
• 18:17
  Wait, wait for. 30 seconds. Nah.
• 18:19
  I rode it for like 5 minutes. I got home, I was like.
• 18:22
  Oh, whoa. Wait, you rode it with no oil
• 18:24
  and it was fine? So I.
• 18:25
  I drained the oil to do the clutch.
• 18:27
  Yeah, I've never done a clutch. There's going to be a trend
• 18:31
  here. I don't know.
• 18:32
  I've done a lot of things, but like, not a lot of it, You know
• 18:35
  what I mean? I would fucking kidding,
• 18:39
  disassemble the motorcycle. I'm looking at it and all of
• 18:42
  it's apart and I'm like a lot different.
• 18:44
  Than a. Car fucking just throw it all
• 18:48
  back like I I took the clutch and I just had the new one next
• 18:52
  to it and I was just like boop boop boop like fucking like
• 18:55
  throw the other one out put the new one on put like in this.
• 18:57
  It had all the fucking plates and everything.
• 18:59
  Yo my clutch, now I could do this.
• 19:02
  Oh nice. With it, it fucking used to give
• 19:04
  yourself tendonitis. Let's get to the.
• 19:06
  Part where you rode it with no oil.
• 19:08
  Oh, right, and it was fine. So sick bro that that bike
• 19:12
  probably hasn't had an oil change in eight years.
• 19:16
  You got to understand that shit's.
• 19:18
  All the oil is just caked on it. I mean cylinder walls is just
• 19:21
  oil oil. Came out, Yeah.
• 19:23
  And it looked like oil and it smelled like oil.
• 19:26
  And dude, I don't know what the fuck is up with this bike.
• 19:29
  It just like runs. That's kind of cool though on
• 19:31
  its own, dude. I told you that story once about
• 19:34
  Scott when he had the RB or whatever and they they were
• 19:36
  doing something and they had no oil in it and they drove it down
• 19:39
  the block. An RB20 no oil.
• 19:43
  I did that to my RB22. Oh yeah, then we definitely.
• 19:45
  But it happened at at a different shop.
• 19:47
  Yeah, and then they drove it down the street.
• 19:49
  They're like, yo, this shit's sick.
• 19:51
  Shit rips. And then all of a sudden it just
• 19:52
  seized and they're like, what? What happened?
• 19:54
  Oh no, mine didn't. Well, they brought it back.
• 19:56
  They towed it. They went oh shit, did you put
• 19:58
  oil? And he's like, no, did you put
• 19:59
  oil in it? No, there's no oil.
• 20:02
  It was Justin and Scott and then they towed it back.
• 20:04
  Fucking put a put a break up on it.
• 20:07
  Fucking. Broke it free, put oil in it,
• 20:10
  start it up fine. That's.
• 20:11
  Crazy fire. Yeah, that's an engine.
• 20:14
  Pretty sick. Dude.
• 20:16
  Yeah, engines are pretty, you know, engines are pretty stout
• 20:21
  machines. Dude, and I'm telling you they
• 20:22
  don't make them like. Yeah, probably not.
• 20:25
  Yeah. You probably see some old shit
• 20:27
  come by you hopefully, I hope the old like those older cars
• 20:33
  need need you. Yeah.
• 20:37
  Like. That's the issue is I don't want
• 20:40
  what they need. I don't want to do.
• 20:43
  It's hard, the older shit. Yeah, like I, I don't want to do
• 20:46
  Rust and stuff. Like that so.
• 20:49
  You. Like.
• 20:50
  That's a big thing. OK so I got a buddy of mine he
• 20:53
  he actually is doing this. What?
• 20:54
  Oh, the wing, The polishing. James Polish the hell out of
• 20:58
  this wing. Hit him up.
• 21:00
  Too bad you sanded the shit out of it before you.
• 21:03
  Is that James with the with the chop top coop?
• 21:07
  I was about to bring that up, yeah.
• 21:08
  Yeah, So you know him. Yeah.
• 21:10
  Yeah, that shit, it was crazy. It's wild, yeah.
• 21:12
  Would you know how to do that too?
• 21:16
  Like. I feel like.
• 21:18
  Somebody goes I need this. I feel like there's no right way
• 21:20
  to do it so but would start cutting things.
• 21:23
  There we go. OK.
• 21:24
  So you would know how to go about it and maybe what to do?
• 21:28
  Like yeah, you'd figure it out. Yeah, that's a definitely a
• 21:31
  that's, I mean, James probably had no fucking idea what he's.
• 21:33
  Doing. Oh no, he has no idea.
• 21:34
  Yeah, I was with him the other week.
• 21:36
  Yeah, I was like, so how's it going you?
• 21:38
  Asked him like the only thing I want to know is how is he going
• 21:41
  to replace the quarter glass or the all the glass?
• 21:44
  I don't really know how much of it I can.
• 21:48
  I'm assuming lex lexan but. It's got to get.
• 21:50
  Lexan I don't I. We were having a great time at
• 21:53
  Mike's birthday and I don't remember if he said don't tell
• 21:57
  anybody about this. Oh, OK.
• 21:58
  So I don't know if I want to tell.
• 22:00
  Anybody about it? Probably don't then.
• 22:02
  This is out of respect for you, James.
• 22:04
  Like. Ah, God, did it involve the
• 22:06
  glass? Yeah.
• 22:07
  Oh, OK. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 22:08
  All right. Well, at least you know.
• 22:10
  Yeah, I know he's doing something and I know there's got
• 22:13
  to be a lot of people who hate him for.
• 22:14
  It is it lexan? Probably, I don't know.
• 22:17
  He said maybe I. Don't know.
• 22:21
  OK, what would you do? I'll ask you after this.
• 22:23
  What? What would you do?
• 22:25
  I would get glass windows made. Oh, you're.
• 22:27
  A piece of shit. Yeah.
• 22:29
  Where the fuck don't? You how I'm going to do that?
• 22:31
  I don't know how. Joke.
• 22:31
  Wherever you could find where I'd find out Glass.
• 22:35
  Bro I would. Fucking get a mold it yeah OK,
• 22:38
  I. Get a fucking molten fucking
• 22:40
  glass machine in here. He's got to go outside. 2 pipes
• 22:43
  go under, put them underneath the sand, wait for a lightning
• 22:45
  storm. Damn fucking make glass.
• 22:47
  No, I have no idea how I would do it, but you asked me what I
• 22:49
  would do. I would do that.
• 22:50
  I go on Google, I search how to get custom glass and then find.
• 22:54
  A one thing bit of information I am going to share is that you
• 22:59
  Malcolm, do you mind Googling like chop top JDM if you if you
• 23:03
  Google it, James brought something to my attention that I
• 23:06
  was like, oh, that's kind of weird.
• 23:08
  I don't think that they would do that, but they they do and it's
• 23:11
  when they do the chop top sometimes in Japan.
• 23:14
  Look at this I guess the the S15 the DRFT 1.
• 23:18
  Down the blue one, the blue one on the left.
• 23:20
  Bottom left, no hold. On sorry, my computer.
• 23:23
  Is that Oh my fault? Make it not.
• 23:30
  But if you look the chop top on that is just the front.
• 23:35
  I'm not going to lie, that shit is ugly as hell.
• 23:37
  That one right there, that blue 1, Is that the same car one over
• 23:41
  Malcolm to the left? Maybe I don't.
• 23:44
  Know that shit is ugly as. Hell, what do you mean?
• 23:46
  I think it was cool, really. It looks different that blue 1,
• 23:49
  though, is the is the example I'm talking about the it's only
• 23:51
  the front and James. Yeah, that.
• 23:52
  Blue one, I mean, Maybe it's the angle.
• 23:54
  The angle. No, no, no, pretty good.
• 23:55
  James, like, brought that to me and I cannot Unsee it.
• 23:59
  And James's car is all around. Yeah, yeah.
• 24:03
  I asked his mom. I'm like, James, you fit in that
• 24:06
  shit right. Well, there's probably multiple
• 24:08
  reasons. They did that right and he was
• 24:11
  like, I actually sat in it the for the first time the other day
• 24:15
  and I was like you and he was like we fake growing baby.
• 24:18
  I'm like, ah, thank God, thank. God, but yeah, it's probably a
• 24:21
  reason they do that. But look at that, that that's
• 24:23
  the prime example right there. Look at the.
• 24:24
  Look at. It's just the front.
• 24:26
  Bro look at the Subaru. Oh my God, that's.
• 24:28
  Pretty. Sweet that.
• 24:29
  Looks like a charger. That's why I like it, man, that.
• 24:34
  No. That shit.
• 24:35
  That looks like. Does he have a fucking GR front
• 24:37
  end on that? Yeah, he's got a GR front end.
• 24:41
  That's a fucking bug eye. Yo knock em, that's Naoki bro.
• 24:44
  Shut up. I don't know, probably
• 24:46
  different. Bro that.
• 24:49
  Actually, the more in the car. The more the more I'm looking at
• 24:52
  it, the more I'm looking, Yeah, His hand, their hands are like.
• 24:55
  Yeah. Wait, what?
• 24:57
  That's a child. That's a child.
• 24:59
  That's Naoki's son. That's the.
• 25:00
  One in that wing is sweet though.
• 25:03
  Yeah, it is. But no, yeah, Speaking of wings,
• 25:04
  James, my names Polish this up for me.
• 25:07
  And God, this shit's fucking. Oh my God, look at that shit.
• 25:10
  Oh my God, the. Camera's going to break.
• 25:12
  Good good luck chasing me in a drift.
• 25:15
  Bro oh that was. For I'm running strategy.
• 25:17
  OK, you're not. Can't see.
• 25:21
  Damn chop tops. Yeah, I don't know.

  driving with AKI. Could not kill that motor that
• 31:24
  was. I tell people that all the time.
• 31:26
  I I tried and like, I swear if I put a quarter oil in there, it
• 31:30
  would have been quiet again. It would have been fine.
• 31:33
  And then you did Sr. right? Yeah, yeah.
• 31:35
  So I did an Sr. I did a bunch of stuff all at
• 31:38
  the same time. I did an Sri, did a tube front,
• 31:40
  I did AS&W, pre bent cage, a couple of other things, but that
• 31:47
  was a busy offseason. And you're already welding at
• 31:50
  this time, just like, yeah. OK, cool.
• 31:52
  Like here and there. That was like small stuff.
• 31:54
  Were you doing this as like a hobby?
• 31:56
  Like the welding thing? You just taught yourself
• 31:57
  everything. Yeah, so we talked about this on
• 32:02
  the garage tour too, but like the little kid, I was always
• 32:07
  watching those the power block shows, like on Spike, it was
• 32:11
  like Street 4 by 4. Is that like the two car garage?
• 32:15
  Remember that two guys garage? Yeah, it was just like, oh,
• 32:17
  that's the shit that's on my TV. Like, wait, yeah.
• 32:21
  But like as a little kid, like I had composition notebook and I'm
• 32:25
  like jotting down notes about welding.
• 32:29
  So like the interest started early and then I bought my first
• 32:34
  MIG welder in high school and just started playing around with
• 32:37
  it and it just, it kept progressing.
• 32:40
  YouTube is a wonderful place. Did you?
• 32:43
  That's a fact. Did you, were you in like the
• 32:46
  BMX thing too? Yeah.
• 32:47
  So you needed. Yeah, you were making fucking
• 32:50
  rails. And did you work at the skate
• 32:52
  park and shit with Tom and them? No, isn't, isn't that what their
• 32:55
  deal was? They were making stuff there out
• 32:57
  of stuff. Mount Holly, NJ So it's actually
• 33:00
  pretty deep. I thought you.
• 33:01
  I know where Mount Holly is. Yeah, dude, never mind.
• 33:06
  Never mind. I had a funny story about that
• 33:08
  town just because one day we were driving by it and me and my
• 33:12
  buddy and we'd see Mount Holly and I'd just go Holly.
• 33:15
  I don't even. Who the fuck is Holly like and
• 33:18
  why do I got to mount her? I knew you were going to say
• 33:19
  that shit and you almost stopped, but you said it anyway.
• 33:25
  Because it's like, I can't just do that on here, you know what I
• 33:28
  mean? I want to make sure.
• 33:30
  You could. The listeners at home, that
• 33:31
  person in the garage, that person in their car or whatever,
• 33:34
  they're like, God, why would you just say that like, but not yet.
• 33:39
  That's just deep bro. It's.
• 33:41
  Far. It's like an hour and a half.
• 33:42
  Please tell me that's not where you came from today.
• 33:44
  Yeah, yeah. Dude, when I signed up for this,
• 33:46
  I was like, oh, we're going to go like an hour away and then
• 33:49
  fucking Eddie's like, oh, it's like 2 1/2 hours away.
• 33:52
  I was like, huh, you? Probably click no tolls, you
• 33:55
  just go down Turnpike right? There bro, I hit every toll.
• 33:58
  I got lucky on the last one because the guy didn't see the
• 34:00
  trailer but bro. My brother lives in Millville,
• 34:04
  so like to get down there and I went to school at Rowan so like
• 34:07
  to get down there. It's like fucking.
• 34:10
  Yeah, it's a hike like. 100 exits.
• 34:12
  I was like, yo, Josh, I'll pick your car up.
• 34:14
  We'll just do a video when we're there.
• 34:15
  He's like, oh, really cool. I was like, yeah, what is it,
• 34:18
  like an hour away? And by the time I got back, I
• 34:20
  was like, yeah, that was like $100 in tolls.
• 34:22
  All right, So that wasn't really worth it.
• 34:23
  But you know, I mean, it's going to be a sick video, but.
• 34:25
  Dude, you know what else sucks? When I came, when I was towing
• 34:28
  the ISI, think maybe home from like mid Pond, I fucking didn't
• 34:33
  have the plate cover on the back.
• 34:35
  So I'm going through. I'm going through.
• 34:37
  I'm getting tolls on that. What?
• 34:40
  Yeah, that's how that works. Bro it's not reading any other
• 34:43
  plate. You're trailering a car.
• 34:47
  Yeah. Oh and you don't have a EZ pass
• 34:50
  in the truck, that's trailer in the car.
• 34:51
  Well, the truck's plate is covered, but it's going to get
• 34:55
  paid for because there's a trailer on the fucking back of
• 34:58
  it. You know what I mean?
• 34:59
  Usually I think it would go off the trailer.
• 35:02
  Late maybe, yeah, but now it's like the cost of a trailer.
• 35:05
  And obviously a trailer isn't just moseying on.
• 35:09
  So is it just getting the? Car, then and and the car.
• 35:12
  It's got the trailer. On top of that, but usually I
• 35:14
  have a little cover on it. Yeah, I never even thought about
• 35:16
  that. Like trailering with?
• 35:18
  Like what does it scan? I don't know, I.
• 35:27
  I mean, yeah, I get that. Yeah, I.
• 35:29
  Fabricated a anti plate device. And now I'm thinking about it.
• 35:33
  Yeah, if I had a easy pass and I was trailering something, I
• 35:37
  would just take the plate off the trailer and just chance it
• 35:41
  and then be like, oh shit, I forgot to put it on.
• 35:42
  Sorry, officer, you know. You're a fucking madman just
• 35:46
  saying this shit. You're now you're you're you're
• 35:48
  a. Crazy guy.
• 35:49
  Yeah. We went back to episode 137 and
• 35:52
  like, like, that's going to be evidence in court.
• 35:54
  I don't like it. I mean, I guess it could be.
• 35:56
  I got a totem I. Got a lot of.
• 35:58
  Shit far pretty soon two weeks or something.
• 36:01
  I'm going to Alabama for mid pond.
• 36:04
  You ever been to that track mid pond?
• 36:05
  No, I got a buddy that was in that lived in Alabama for a
• 36:08
  while. He said it's awesome.
• 36:09
  Oh yeah? So dude, the owner's got to make
• 36:11
  it out there at some point. Joe, you got to go, Tom and them
• 36:14
  have been. Yeah.
• 36:16
  Tom and them I think had a good time there, but it was it was
• 36:19
  the R wording because I'm oh rain.
• 36:24
  Oh yeah, sorry you can't say R wording my trip.
• 36:28
  I just, I'm like really hoping like.
• 36:32
  Oh, I see. You're saying.
• 36:32
  You know what I mean? Well, this is wood.
• 36:35
  It might be a composite, but you can knock on it.
• 36:38
  OK. When was the last?
• 36:40
  So you haven't drifted since then?
• 36:42
  You. Don't have Nissan day you?
• 36:44
  Don't got no itch for. Her, Absolutely.
• 36:46
  That's what that's probably what the IS, yeah.
• 36:49
  Yeah, right. I see how.
• 36:52
  This one, no. The IS is like my fun streetcar
• 36:54
  that isn't fun because I don't want to work on it.
• 36:57
  What do you have done to it? It's a stock 1J with a drift
• 37:02
  motion turbo and. Like, yeah, just a little bit of
• 37:08
  stuff. No, that's it.
• 37:09
  It makes like, it makes like 300, so.
• 37:12
  That's what that is. That's a stock 1J.
• 37:14
  Fucking just be turning it on, yeah?
• 37:17
  So that's Herbo. Like does it make?
• 37:18
  Does it add any power? Actually like 300 is pretty.
• 37:21
  The compressor wheels it's. Like so when I was getting it
• 37:24
  tuned my boost controller wasn't working so it's only on 10 lbs.
• 37:28
  OK. But I've seen people make like
• 37:34
  370. With that turbo.
• 37:35
  OK, dude. It's because the weak point of
• 37:37
  that turbo, the weak point of that turbo, I feel like is that
• 37:40
  wheel. It just blows up, takes off.
• 37:42
  It's also tuned on 91 because Arizona doesn't get 93.
• 37:45
  Yeah. Oh yeah, do you still put 91 in
• 37:49
  it? No, I put 90.
• 37:50
  Three in it. I was like, yeah, there's no gun
• 37:52
  right here now. Like, yeah, I'm like, that kind
• 37:57
  of is weird. I feel like when you go
• 37:58
  California and they only got 91, shit bugs me out.
• 38:01
  I'm like. It's only two octane, I mean.
• 38:04
  It's not really. That what?
• 38:05
  What's the real? Difference with that what?
• 38:06
  Why is that? Is there a different?
• 38:08
  No, actually you don't know a different way it's taxed.
• 38:10
  It's probably some EPA. No, it's the same in Arizona.
• 38:12
  So I don't know. No, but they don't have 93.
• 38:16
  Maybe. Yeah, but if.
• 38:16
  Arizona's doing it. That means it has nothing to do
• 38:18
  with the EPA, but I guess it's probably because of the
• 38:22
  delivery. They don't want to ship it here
• 38:24
  or there or whatever. I don't know.
• 38:25
  Yeah, I don't know. That must be what it is.
• 38:27
  Whatever. They got lots of E85 out there
• 38:29
  though. OK, there's the trade off, yeah.
• 38:32
  Yeah, 'cause probably. Can you do like other
• 38:35
  Motorsports on E85? Like can you fucking do like
• 38:38
  side by side stuff on E85? Oh yeah, they, they need that.
• 38:41
  They need that there, dude. You know they're doing crazy.
• 38:44
  I'll trade 93 for E85 any day. That shit would be sick.
• 38:48
  Are you into that stuff over there too?
• 38:49
  Like what it like doing that stuff in Arizona?
• 38:52
  Like what the side by side jumping all that like?
• 38:55
  Oh yeah, that's what I feel like I'd be doing out there.
• 38:58
  That's what I would be doing, dude.
• 38:59
  It it's, I mean, that shit looks fun as fuck, but it also looks
• 39:02
  extremely dangerous, so I don't know.
• 39:04
  Why do you look mad stressed? Because I I could see myself
• 39:08
  getting hurt doing that shit. Wait, Malcolm, didn't you
• 39:11
  fucking? Oh, wait.
• 39:12
  Didn't you fucking flip? Didn't you flip one of those
• 39:14
  things? Yeah, didn't.
• 39:15
  You flip one of those things. I I didn't flip it.
• 39:17
  I was a passenger, dumb ass driving flipped it.
• 39:21
  Wait a minute, that's your brother-in-law.
• 39:23
  He's dumb as hell for flipping that shit.
• 39:25
  They were on a on a trip or something.
• 39:27
  Where were you at? Yeah, we were just in a bachelor
• 39:29
  party trip and then we went to Sedona and rented some side by
• 39:31
  sides and this guy thought you could just RIP the wheel 90°.
• 39:35
  And not and not flip. That'd be so fun.
• 39:39
  Yeah, not the, not the flipping part.
• 39:41
  The flipping was probably. Fun too though.
• 39:42
  Dude. Right man.
• 39:45
  But it was, you know, funny to look back on.
• 39:48
  Somebody had to get stitches. I was going to say, somebody
• 39:51
  got. Hurt, you said you had a good
• 39:52
  question. Definitely.
• 39:53
  I felt nauseous after. Oh my God.
• 39:57
  I felt nauseous after well. I'm glad you're good.
• 40:00
  Yeah, we're good. Dude speaking a rollover.
• 40:03
  I watched Austin miss I I don't I'm not even going to try to
• 40:07
  present or pronounce his last name.
• 40:09
  Do you know any of the kids from like E town and stuff?
• 40:15
  Austin Yeah, No, I don't think so.
• 40:17
  He rolled in Xterra last weekend.
• 40:20
  I was there, I watched it, and the Xterra was on the whole time
• 40:24
  running fine. Yeah.
• 40:25
  You seen what these kids have been doing over there with Chris
• 40:27
  napping all them. Yeah, yeah.
• 40:30
  That's it was Chris's bachelor. Party.
• 40:32
  I was like, I've been involved in one of those before and that
• 40:34
  shit was crazy. You were not Me and Malcolm have
• 40:36
  felt air in a vehicle. Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
• 40:39
  I yeah, I no, I'm not a retard, but yeah, I I watched you guys
• 40:42
  do it. No, no, no.
• 40:43
  That that night, you know what video I'm talking about where
• 40:46
  the where they sent an XJ through the air.
• 40:48
  Yeah, I think I saw a mat like it's a big air.
• 40:51
  That shit was wild. Man, that that jump.
• 40:54
  Frankie was supposed to be in that car.
• 40:56
  Yeah, they kept saying, oh, get in the car.
• 40:58
  I was like, no, I'm good. They're like, no, you got to get
• 41:00
  in the car. I was like, I'm good.
• 41:01
  And then that happened. It was like a fucking whale
• 41:04
  breaching water, actually higher than that.
• 41:07
  And I was like, get up, I'm not in that thing.
• 41:09
  And then fucking yeah, a shock mount broke off like that.
• 41:14
  Was it door? I won't close.
• 41:15
  Joe, would you go done. Yeah, dude, I don't know.
• 41:19
  I'm not really. Like it's fun to watch, but
• 41:21
  like, I'm not trying to like fuck my spine up over that.
• 41:23
  Dude, that Xterra, but I wanted that Xterra did roll over
• 41:26
  probably. That's crazy.
• 41:27
  He was going up, you know, that embankment thing, and just went
• 41:30
  doop, doop. From down there, it looked like
• 41:32
  the most gentle rollover. You guys sent a photo or a video
• 41:35
  or something? It looked like someone got even
• 41:37
  more air than last. Time, that was him, yeah.
• 41:39
  That was the. That was the exterror.
• 41:40
  Yeah, dude, that was fucking. Crazy that was that was after
• 41:44
  that rollover little thing. Oh my God.
• 41:46
  It was like, yo, fuck it. Yeah, I mean, and then the tire
• 41:49
  popped. That's it.
• 41:50
  Yeah. She went.
• 41:51
  I was like. Oh.
• 41:55
  Woods, wood stuff, forest. Boys, dude, Mike was out playing
• 41:59
  with the fucking trucks too bro you missed it.
• 42:02
  He was Wheeling A8 foot bed truck like Frankie's right?
• 42:05
  Mike Knapp. Yeah, out there Wheeling in the
• 42:08
  woods. That's funny as fuck.
• 42:09
  Bro, he was having the, we were having a time, man.
• 42:12
  You should have invited him to the podcast.
• 42:15
  Didn't even like cross your mind?
• 42:17
  I was just having mad fun. I was just.
• 42:19
  Hanging out, I'm like, didn't even like a little bit.
• 42:22
  I am going to, I think I am going to be painting his car
• 42:25
  next week. So Jack comes in.
• 42:27
  Maybe we just bring the podcast equipment.
• 42:29
  Yo, Mike, yo so. Yeah, we all just pass out in
• 42:34
  the YEAH. That's going to be fun.
• 42:37
  What are your, what are your hours?
• 42:38
  Do you work like? How do you set that for
• 42:40
  yourself, Joe? I'm an early guy so I try to get
• 42:43
  in there like 5 and I wrap up around like 3:00-ish.
• 42:49
  That's from that fucking other job you had.
• 42:51
  That's what, Yeah, yeah. 5:00 AM.
• 42:53
  Yeah, the sooner I start, the sooner I can be done, Yeah.
• 42:56
  So it works out good for me. Nice.
• 42:58
  But here's the thing, like you work, you work at home
• 43:00
  basically. So like, you could just not be
• 43:02
  done. Yeah.
• 43:04
  And that that happens. Yeah, I was about to say, like,
• 43:07
  I'm sure that happens more times than one.
• 43:09
  Yeah. Like the other day my wife had
• 43:12
  to go out for like 2 hours. She was like you just like you
• 43:16
  watch the kids for a couple hours and then just like cover
• 43:19
  it on the back end and then it's like 10:00.
• 43:22
  She's like, all right, I think time's up, this is what's going
• 43:25
  on. Yeah.
• 43:27
  So yeah, that happens too. Well, it's good to have someone
• 43:29
  at a check. I was going to see like working.
• 43:31
  Fucking 15 hours, right? 16 hours.
• 43:34
  Dude, your kids are going to be like, yeah, my dad used to work
• 43:38
  in the shop. Yeah, dude, like, that's crazy
• 43:40
  to think about. Like if I was a child looking at
• 43:42
  that, that's all I would probably think about growing up
• 43:44
  is like, damn. Yeah, they're definitely going
• 43:48
  to be in the cars. Yeah, it's cool.
• 43:49
  Like my son's just starting to, like he's getting curious and
• 43:53
  starting to explore and everything.
• 43:54
  So especially now, like with the weather getting nicer, my wife
• 43:58
  will bring him outside and he just, he always finds his way
• 44:01
  into the garage. He's picking up something that's
• 44:03
  cool. So that's.
• 44:04
  Going to be some free labour in a couple years, Yeah, right.
• 44:08
  What? That's how this motherfucker
• 44:09
  likes to think about. You said it on the last podcast
• 44:11
  we talked about. Kids too.
• 44:13
  You realize I can't? Say, oh damn, I could get them
• 44:15
  to do stuff or something like go do go, go do this.
• 44:17
  Go. I mean, most parents do that
• 44:18
  though I feel like eventually. That's half the point.
• 44:20
  Yeah, you got to teach them somehow, so.
• 44:23
  Dude, if I was a kid and I learned how to Weld, that would
• 44:25
  have been crazy because then I would have just been out doing
• 44:27
  stuff. Imagine.
• 44:28
  Imagine. My son told him how to push cars
• 44:31
  because nobody drops off a car that runs.
• 44:34
  So he's. Just pushing around cars in the
• 44:35
  driveway all day and he's watching through the window.
• 44:38
  So now he comes outside, he just pushes his little toy cars
• 44:40
  around. Do you want to get in like?
• 44:43
  He's like, no, you just push it. Yeah.
• 44:45
  He's just like, this is how you do it.
• 44:46
  This is how you drive a car. You just go outside and push it
• 44:48
  down. There's.
• 44:48
  Got to be a better so you can't get like a little winch for
• 44:50
  yourself at the front. I wish it was that easy.
• 44:54
  Yeah, I got. This weird like triangle
• 44:55
  driveway. So I got a.
• 44:57
  Bro, getting in that driveway, Oh my God, bro, you know.
• 45:02
  You remember that game like you had the the red car in the
• 45:05
  middle and then like the buses and moving right, you had like
• 45:07
  one open space. That's what it's like in my
• 45:09
  driveway and. Then of course, like when?
• 45:11
  He chose to start a business, yeah.
• 45:14
  Going to his house, like that road that you go on to go to his
• 45:16
  house. I was like, this must have not
• 45:18
  been updated since like 1910 like when they were using horses
• 45:22
  and shit because the road is so skinny for two cars that like
• 45:25
  you couldn't even like if I wanted to pull over with the
• 45:27
  trailer it would two cars ain't getting by.
• 45:29
  Like 1 car is barely getting by. Maybe it's tight and then.
• 45:33
  And you're full time in this space.
• 45:35
  Yeah, I mean, it's, it's a your neighbors.
• 45:37
  Don't care? Like how?
• 45:38
  How close are your neighbors here?
• 45:39
  Not close. They're.
• 45:42
  They're close enough, but everybody's been cool.
• 45:45
  I haven't had any issues. I keep thinking, 'cause I, I
• 45:49
  keep forgetting, 'cause I tried to do that little work from home
• 45:52
  stint and man, the things that I'm trying to do, my neighbors
• 45:57
  would definitely fucking know when I'm working.
• 46:00
  If it's making fumes, it's making sounds, it's making
• 46:02
  fucking and. His hours are 05:00 in the
• 46:05
  morning. 5:00 in the morning, that's what you what if, what if
• 46:07
  five in the morning you hear really.
• 46:10
  Because that's, that's kind of the noise you're making.
• 46:12
  Yeah. For real.
• 46:14
  Actually, Malcolm was really good at that noise today.
• 46:15
  Do you remember what you did? I do not remember.
• 46:19
  Fuck dude, it was. Perfect.
• 46:20
  I'll try it sometime. Hey Malcolm, you mind making
• 46:23
  that sound? Dude, really perfect.
• 46:24
  What is this? Frankie was like grinding
• 46:26
  something and he literally made the exact same noise as the
• 46:28
  grinder. I was like, whoa, that was good.
• 46:31
  That's the kind of noise that you're fucking making at 5:00 in
• 46:33
  the morning. Dude, that's crazy.
• 46:36
  Somebody's got to do it. Yeah, right.
• 46:38
  I mean, I don't know, it's like, get over it bro.
• 46:42
  Like people got to make money. I know, man.
• 46:44
  I'm waking up at 7:00. That's two more hours.
• 46:49
  Yeah, you're right. It is.
• 46:49
  It's 5:00 in the morning. It's pretty crazy.
• 46:51
  Yeah, it's pretty early. Like.
• 46:53
  Now do you wake up at 5 or do you go outside at 5:00?
• 46:56
  No, I'm usually I try to be outside at 5:00.
• 46:58
  Well, bro, he's at the crib like I know what?
• 47:01
  What do you mean what you? Got to get ready though a
• 47:03
  little. Bit yeah, I got to get ready.
• 47:04
  Yeah, coffee. I got to get coffee.
• 47:06
  Coffee. Is like, dude, I'd be putting
• 47:09
  the coffee machine in the shop. So then I'd have to be like, oh
• 47:12
  shit. Wait, So what time do you go to?
• 47:13
  Sleep. I need to like know your
• 47:15
  schedule now. Still like 10. 10:30 Yeah, OK.
• 47:20
  Dude but what are you going to not have a life after work like?
• 47:23
  That that's why I went full time, so I could have a life.
• 47:25
  After Yeah. Oh.
• 47:26
  That was risky, yeah. Risky.
• 47:28
  Move That was a risky. Move.
• 47:30
  Yeah, like you've seen. This Frankie Monroe.
• 47:32
  Fucking that was risky, but it helps that the shop is on the
• 47:36
  property in a way. I I still like go back to what I
• 47:39
  said. I'm like that would fuck me up
• 47:41
  bad. Like I would not be able to
• 47:43
  handle that. I feel like I'd be
• 47:46
  procrastinating on stuff, you know?
• 47:48
  Yeah, no, I've for the most part I've been on top of everything
• 47:52
  so far. Yeah.
• 47:53
  It's just I got a lot of work lined up so I can't afford to
• 47:58
  spend too much time. Yeah.
• 48:00
  You know, just wasting and take some fucking discipline dude,
• 48:03
  because you can. You go inside.
• 48:06
  Yeah, you can. Chip side, when it's especially
• 48:09
  when it's hot or when it was cold, well, you're, you're
• 48:11
  really in the garage. Are you able to keep it heated
• 48:14
  in there for yourself like during the winter?
• 48:16
  Because it was a cold winter, man.
• 48:18
  Yeah, it, it works out. I got a heater in there and then
• 48:23
  I got some space heaters so that I can move around with me, but
• 48:25
  it's not real insulated. So dude, we I manage.
• 48:30
  Not not that you could just magically find time, but like I
• 48:33
  feel like that'd be a game changer for you now all year
• 48:36
  round. Shit you could.
• 48:38
  This is real bougie. But like what if it was AC2O?
• 48:41
  Now you're working fucking. Yeah, right.
• 48:45
  Never say never, dude. Yeah, yeah.
• 48:47
  Or maybe. Over the last year, you know,
• 48:51
  the temperature inside's been OK, all right.
• 48:55
  If I got to put on an extra jacket, I'm fine.
• 48:56
  And then in the summer, it really hasn't been too bad.
• 48:59
  Is your goal to like expand this?
• 49:04
  Are. You happy, are you?
• 49:06
  Would you like to just keep it at your home?
• 49:07
  Are you trying to get a space and like hire some people?
• 49:10
  Right now I like having it at home.
• 49:12
  It's nice, like being available close, not having to commute is
• 49:18
  awesome, and I have a decent amount of space to work with.
• 49:21
  So for as long as I can, I'd like to keep it where I'm at.
• 49:25
  Hell yeah. Yeah, that's I'm.
• 49:28
  I'm, I'm jealous. That is like the dream.
• 49:33
  So it's definitely a good starting point too, because,
• 49:36
  well, not to say you just started, but you started full
• 49:38
  time. It's a good starting point
• 49:39
  because your overhead is non existent.
• 49:41
  Yeah, right. So it's like you got that safety
• 49:44
  net at least. So there's something, you know
• 49:46
  what I mean? Instead of just like diving into
• 49:48
  oh, now I got to pay rent every month.
• 49:49
  But The thing is, your schedule's so booked.
• 49:50
  It's like. Yeah, I've been.
• 49:53
  I've been really fortunate to I have as much work lined up as I
• 49:56
  have and to just like grow quickly and expand into other
• 50:01
  Motorsports. Dude, this isn't the name.
• 50:04
  Like I didn't even know your real name.
• 50:07
  Yeah, until I just know the the name.
• 50:09
  Yeah, like here. Are you action-packed?
• 50:11
  No. And he's like, he's like the go
• 50:13
  to guy right now as far as Cage. Dude, the work I just saw, I saw
• 50:17
  Josh's cage. I'm like what the fuck is this?
• 50:20
  Jesus Christ. Like it's fucking.
• 50:21
  Nice. That was everyone's reaction
• 50:23
  when they saw that cage. They were like whoa, Especially
• 50:26
  when you go over 4 feet next to my car and you go, what the fuck
• 50:29
  is that? Yours.
• 50:32
  It's the fact that it's white. It just looks.
• 50:35
  No, it's not that. Oh, it's bad.
• 50:37
  It's bad. Some problem areas.
• 50:39
  Yeah, some problem areas. It looks like a fucking cave
• 50:42
  dwelling underneath the fucking car.
• 50:44
  There's like little things hanging from it.
• 50:46
  I need to get that fucking cage. How do you obviously so now
• 50:50
  you're up to date with like your cages past tech with like the
• 50:54
  tube. Yeah, I don't you ever see that
• 50:57
  when they're like blah, blah, blah, Dom.
• 51:01
  Dom, Dom tubing, Yeah. What does that even mean?
• 51:04
  Drawn over mandrel. So it's like the way they make
• 51:06
  the tube over mandrel. What does that mean?
• 51:09
  Write that down. Write that down.
• 51:10
  Write that. So like it starts as a flat
• 51:13
  sheet, OK. And then they use a mandrel to
• 51:16
  form it into the tube so that it keeps the wall thickness and all
• 51:19
  that kind of stuff. And then they Weld that, yeah.
• 51:22
  And then they, dude, what are they using to Weld that shit?
• 51:24
  Because you could barely even see that.
• 51:26
  I don't know. We need that shit.
• 51:28
  Yeah, yeah, we need, we need that.
• 51:30
  What's that show? How things are made.
• 51:31
  I need that from fucking Dom tubing.
• 51:33
  That shit is crazy. I'm sure they have that dude.
• 51:37
  Which is crazy dude, because dude, I always see that.
• 51:38
  I was like, I remember when I was like first seeing or doing a
• 51:42
  lot of this shit, I was like, is this motherfucker welded?
• 51:45
  How do they make this shit like? And then you see it like a
• 51:48
  little line. But you can see like I don't
• 51:53
  know how they Weld it specifically, but you can get
• 51:55
  welded seam tube. It's like the wall thickness
• 51:58
  isn't as consistent and there's like an actual Weld on it.
• 52:01
  Like if you look inside the tube there's you can see the bead.
• 52:06
  So the Dom tube, I don't know what they do specifically, but.
• 52:09
  It's but that's the one for the cage.
• 52:10
  Right. Yeah.
• 52:11
  And then they use the drag cars use Chromali, which is like it's
• 52:17
  like a treated steel. So it's stronger than Dom so you
• 52:23
  can run a thinner wall thickness.
• 52:26
  So the tubes are able to be like, like fucking yeah, like
• 52:31
  they're all over the I don't even know.
• 52:32
  Well, the crow Molly is really for weight.
• 52:35
  I'm thinking of like a funny card dude like.
• 52:38
  Dude, the crow Molly. I picked one up at his shop, the
• 52:40
  same length as the other one. I let my jaw dropped.
• 52:43
  Yeah, it's crazy. For real, it's like that.
• 52:45
  Much It was that different to me.
• 52:46
  I was like, whoa, like you, You know when you're expecting to
• 52:48
  like pick something up and it's gonna.
• 52:49
  Be like a Cusco. Cage the Cusco.
• 52:52
  One of them is Cromole. The blue ones they're Cromole,
• 52:55
  but the other one, the black ones are not.
• 52:58
  Are they really? Yeah.
• 53:02
  That might be a lie, but. I was about to.
• 53:05
  It might not be the blue ones, it might be, but they do.
• 53:07
  They do have chromoli cages. The blue ones are Chromoli.
• 53:09
  They are. Yeah.
• 53:10
  OK, that's the parts guy. He knows.
• 53:11
  Oh man, Jesus, he got you man. Dude, do your job.
• 53:16
  Yeah, no, but I mean, it's kind of cool that they did that.
• 53:19
  But yo, what's the craziest thing anyone ever made a cage
• 53:21
  out of? Can you look up billet aluminum
• 53:23
  roll cage? Wait, why I want to?
• 53:25
  See if this is. Is that what the flex?
• 53:26
  Is some of those, some of those Porsche like factory race cars
• 53:30
  are aluminum roll? No way.
• 53:31
  Yeah. Is that a flex?
• 53:33
  Is that like a? Yo, wait, so it's got, it's
• 53:36
  coming out of the factory, it's got to work so right.
• 53:38
  But how do they do that? I don't know because somebody
• 53:41
  asked me about doing a 1/2 cage and aluminum.
• 53:44
  I was like get out of here. What?
• 53:47
  The fuck? Wait for real?
• 53:48
  Yeah, apparently. Look, I haven't seen.
• 53:50
  Any person, but apparently they they come.
• 53:54
  Yeah, maybe. Maybe.
• 53:56
  What? GT3 or some shit, whatever.
• 53:59
  One has a cage. I don't know, it might be one of
• 54:01
  those Cup cars. Oh really?
• 54:03
  OK no, not like aftermarket work.
• 54:05
  Look up just search like 9/11 aluminum roll cage question
• 54:10
  mark. Maybe AI will help us out.
• 54:12
  Question mark go to all not images go OEM.
• 54:22
  Because I I feel like they would, they would do some crazy
• 54:25
  shit like that. No, I don't see it.
• 54:30
  Type cup car after 911. Yeah, I don't know, Maybe we're
• 54:41
  making it up. Yeah, maybe.
• 54:43
  But like I. Somebody's going to comment on
• 54:45
  this video. Really.
• 54:46
  Oh yeah, yeah, Oh yeah. Go down, go down that one, that
• 54:49
  13, go down. How good is the OEM roll cage?
• 54:54
  I like that, but yeah. So you said no to the aluminum
• 54:58
  roll cage? Yeah, I can't.
• 55:00
  I can't do that. Probably a good fucking idea.
• 55:02
  I mean, I was just trying to think like, oh, maybe like if
• 55:05
  someone did some crazy shit, but it's kind of impossible to Weld
• 55:09
  a solid piece. No, you could Weld a solid piece
• 55:11
  of fucking aluminum tubing, but you can't bend that shit, right?
• 55:14
  Yeah. That's not happily, at least.
• 55:16
  Yeah, you need a hollow tube. This shows how much I know about
• 55:19
  roll cage manufacturing. I don't fucking know anything
• 55:21
  about it. Like, yeah, that shit is crazy,
• 55:28
  but yeah dude, it's like an art. So I mean, just bending those
• 55:34
  alone is scary to me because it's like, you fuck one of those
• 55:36
  up, it's like. Yeah, it takes a lot of
• 55:37
  practice. I'm concerned with the like this
• 55:40
  force, like the pushing down, because that's what a roll cage
• 55:43
  is, you know? Yeah, and with the word.
• 55:47
  Aluminum. I know.
• 55:47
  It doesn't make any sense. Yeah.
• 55:49
  That's. The word aluminum.
• 55:52
  Aluminum's got to be real thick for it to be strong.
• 55:54
  So it's like. It wouldn't work.
• 55:56
  You can't bend it. Then you understand how like a
• 55:57
  circle now that is like cylinder wise, I'm not going to fucking
• 56:01
  be like fucking circle, but it's now like it grows straight.
• 56:07
  I don't know, like, but like you see how this is a cylinder and I
• 56:10
  can't like push it. Yeah, yeah, Strengthens it.
• 56:12
  Strengthens it because it's a circle, I feel like.
• 56:15
  So you think, how much does it need to?
• 56:17
  But once, once you once you bend it like this.
• 56:20
  Yo, let's do a video. We're we're going to have him
• 56:23
  put aluminum roll cage in your car and we're going to throw it
• 56:25
  off the mountain. We should just give it to the
• 56:27
  farm kids to test them out bro they'll test the fuck.
• 56:30
  Out. We'll put an aluminum cage in
• 56:31
  one of their Jeeps and they'll just roll that shit down.
• 56:34
  Wooden cage in there, right? Now wooden you.
• 56:35
  Remember seeing that. No see.
• 56:38
  That OPS one has a 2 by 4 like this is holding much pretty much
• 56:41
  the whole ass rear of the car. It's crazy they'd be testing the
• 56:46
  limits of these cars. That's pretty crazy.
• 56:49
  But yeah, as far as like bending to like cages and shit, that's
• 56:52
  the scaryest thing to me. I I remember, oh, fucking Justin
• 56:55
  did his cage here for the Cressida.
• 56:58
  Really. Yeah, he did that shit himself.
• 56:59
  Never did one before. I remember I walked in once.
• 57:02
  I looked in the ground, there's like 4 main hoops just on the
• 57:04
  ground. I'm like, Oh no.
• 57:06
  Yeah, he gets real expensive. But but he was he doing what
• 57:08
  you're doing you're. Hell no.
• 57:10
  You're. Bending this stuff yourself.
• 57:11
  I mean, yeah, technically, but you have a hydraulic Yeah, 1,
• 57:15
  right? Yeah, my two benders, hydraulic.
• 57:18
  Well, it's air over hydraulic. Yeah, yeah.
• 57:23
  What? What was he?
• 57:24
  Was he using one of those Jack handles?
• 57:26
  Oh, the fucking fucking mount it to the ground and then you
• 57:28
  fucking like take a big ass breaker bar and fucking bend it.
• 57:31
  Yeah, that. That's you don't have to go to
• 57:34
  the gym after that. That was just broth.
• 57:37
  Literally. He had you fucking.
• 57:39
  Not me, hell no, I wasn't doing that shit.
• 57:41
  But yeah, he man, I think it was manual dude that does that.
• 57:45
  Does that make sense? Yep, that exists, right?
• 57:47
  Yeah. With that hydraulic shit, you
• 57:49
  can, dude, because it Josh's car has these bends that go in and
• 57:53
  I'm like, damn, that shit is fucking.
• 57:54
  Fly. God damn.
• 57:56
  And so like with one of these guys, yo, you can't get like the
• 58:01
  most I feel like if I bend it, whoa.
• 58:05
  What is the art behind that? Like bending tubes the correct
• 58:08
  way and not. Does that do it?
• 58:11
  Is there a correct way? You just got to bend that shit.
• 58:13
  Yeah, you just. Got to start bending it.
• 58:15
  But you got to measure everything like 8.
• 58:17
  Times no. There's there's a lot of
• 58:21
  measurements to it, like the tube Bender that I use.
• 58:27
  They give out a lot of information as far as like how
• 58:31
  much tube you use per degree, so it helps you figure out like
• 58:36
  your overall lengths and stuff like that.
• 58:38
  Oh shit, wait, because. There's a.
• 58:41
  That takes a length. I didn't exactly think that
• 58:44
  about. That so when you bend it, the
• 58:45
  outside grows and the inside kind of shrinks.
• 58:48
  Oh damn. So it's it's a weird layout,
• 58:51
  like to get the lengths and everything right.
• 58:54
  Plus you got to like measure the offset of like for a pillar
• 58:59
  bars, it comes off the main hoop and then you got to bend out to
• 59:04
  meet like where the door is. So there's a lot of math to it.
• 59:08
  Yeah, so you have to rotate it and bend it out, then make sure
• 59:12
  you're rotating it back to go straight to the ground.
• 59:14
  Bro fuck that. I.
• 59:16
  Don't know how I'd be and. Especially with the like the way
• 59:19
  I do the A pillar bars, a lot of them have like 5 different bends
• 59:23
  in them. Oh my God, it gets.
• 59:26
  And how? How long does it take to like
• 59:27
  bend one pipe? Like between measuring, between
• 59:30
  figuring it out, between like everything.
• 59:33
  It depends because you got to think notching takes a little
• 59:38
  bit of time because I try not to, you know, set it up and
• 59:44
  notch it and have it at the right length.
• 59:46
  Not that I try not to, but I try not to make it too short.
• 59:49
  What do you mean? Oh, before the I'm I'm like,
• 59:51
  what are we notching? But I forget like.
• 59:53
  Yeah, they got to meet up together.
• 59:54
  Yeah. So a lot of times I'll leave it
• 59:59
  too, like a couple inches too long and cut it back little by
• 1:00:02
  little because you got to think I'd rather waste 2 inches on
• 1:00:06
  each side than a 7 foot piece because I cut it too short.
• 1:00:09
  Oh my. God.
• 1:00:10
  Yeah. So it takes a lot of time in
• 1:00:12
  that. Has that happened in your
• 1:00:14
  lifetime? A few.
• 1:00:15
  Plenty of times. I bet dude.
• 1:00:19
  Yeah, it gets real upsetting, like especially when you get
• 1:00:21
  into the chromoly, because that's not cheap.
• 1:00:24
  Yeah. Yeah, dude.
• 1:00:26
  I mean, you had practice though for your own car probably.
• 1:00:29
  Yeah. So you're a whiz at math then?
• 1:00:31
  Like you. No, so like you.
• 1:00:32
  So what's where's the math coming from, Joe?
• 1:00:36
  I do a lot of a lot of notes, a lot of like.
• 1:00:42
  God dude, I can't even. Measure twice, cut once.
• 1:00:44
  Yeah. Dude, no, you'd have it.
• 1:00:46
  Because now what's going to happen is now I'm going to
• 1:00:49
  measure too many times. Yeah, because there you go.
• 1:00:51
  And. Then you end up second guessing
• 1:00:53
  yourself. You're like, you know what?
• 1:00:54
  I just got to start over. Yeah.
• 1:00:55
  Boom and then I'm buying more material like again, fuck.
• 1:01:00
  Yeah, dude, and that steel is not cheaper now the tariffs,
• 1:01:03
  the. Tariffs.
• 1:01:04
  Wait, wait. No, Malcolm, the tariffs you'd.
• 1:01:05
  Be there was this there was this one one like fucking they had
• 1:01:11
  the best tons of metal everywhere.
• 1:01:14
  I forget what it was called, but it was in South Jersey
• 1:01:16
  somewhere. That's that's where I would see
• 1:01:18
  like Fazios. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:01:20
  Oh shit. Yeah, they got a lot of stuff.
• 1:01:21
  Yeah, that dude you ever been to?
• 1:01:23
  One of no. Fucking shit was sick man.
• 1:01:25
  I would bring my 2:40 there Bobby.
• 1:01:27
  Looking for fucking like L brackets and whatever else.
• 1:01:31
  Or so it's just like a metal supermarket.
• 1:01:32
  Type shit, Pretty much, yeah. OK, they got all kinds of stuff.
• 1:01:35
  That's cool. They don't got that up here,
• 1:01:37
  They do North. What is it, Ace?
• 1:01:39
  Metal Supermarkets. Hackensack.
• 1:01:41
  Are you dead ass? Yeah, I'm dead ass serious.
• 1:01:44
  It's pretty sick. Is he not bullshit?
• 1:01:47
  Dude, what is with your town? With your towns names of the
• 1:01:50
  stores over here that did you pass the water store?
• 1:01:53
  No, the water store. That's it.
• 1:01:55
  Yeah, it's called the Water Store I.
• 1:01:56
  Wonder what they sell in there? Pepsi.
• 1:01:58
  Imagine that's where we get our water from though.
• 1:02:02
  Yeah, yeah. Oh, can they have the price of
• 1:02:05
  the gallon right on the window one you just see it?
• 1:02:08
  I don't like the price. I'm going somewhere else.
• 1:02:11
  Yeah, I mean, I never really. Yeah, the water store, it's kind
• 1:02:13
  of weird. Why didn't we get into that?
• 1:02:16
  We would be so rich. Right, like imagine just getting
• 1:02:18
  into something that like humans need to exist instead of fucking
• 1:02:22
  things they definitely don't need.
• 1:02:24
  You need race cars? Yeah, if.
• 1:02:25
  You, if you have a race car, yeah, you need a cage.
• 1:02:27
  Like you don't have a choice. But like the thing with
• 1:02:29
  fabrication is you can fabricate anything.
• 1:02:33
  Yeah, yeah, we're just talking about cages.
• 1:02:35
  That's the. Weird part like.
• 1:02:36
  We're stuck on that. You you do other things.
• 1:02:39
  Yeah, yeah, I do all kinds of stuff.
• 1:02:41
  Like the car just finished up the BMW we were talking about.
• 1:02:46
  He wanted to do carbon fiber. They weren't really door panels,
• 1:02:51
  but like I cut the factory door panels to make room for the door
• 1:02:56
  bars and the like the rest of the cage.
• 1:02:59
  So we did the bottom half in carbon fiber, which is cool cuz
• 1:03:03
  that's not something I've worked with before, yeah.
• 1:03:06
  What the heck? You just randomly.
• 1:03:07
  Yeah, I think I could do that. Yeah, yeah, I'll figure it out.
• 1:03:11
  What the? Heck yeah, that's kind of crazy.
• 1:03:13
  You got photos of that on your Instagram or no?
• 1:03:15
  Not yet, but. That was recent.
• 1:03:18
  Give him a break man. I can't see that.
• 1:03:20
  Let him breathe because you dude, that's kind of a weird
• 1:03:24
  part about you got now you got to take pictures and make sure
• 1:03:27
  you're. Oh yeah.
• 1:03:28
  Social media's up to date. You don't have a YouTube channel
• 1:03:30
  or anything? No, no, I don't have a YouTube
• 1:03:31
  channel. That's a whole another fucking
• 1:03:32
  realm, right? Yeah, yeah.
• 1:03:35
  I feel like a fabrication. Channel, I mean, you know too
• 1:03:37
  we're no you're right. Everything you're saying is
• 1:03:40
  right like it would be. It's really smart for you to do
• 1:03:42
  that, obviously. Like a fabrication channel where
• 1:03:44
  it's like there's just a corner of your shop.
• 1:03:47
  And like what I did, I'm trying to do, it was like I bought a
• 1:03:51
  camera where pretty much it just has a mic.
• 1:03:54
  I needed the easiest one because I'm not great with the this.
• 1:03:58
  So then you like turn it on and the mics already on and that's
• 1:04:02
  all you do. You don't got to fucking press
• 1:04:05
  anything. It's like the pocket thing.
• 1:04:07
  And you, I put it in the corner. I can just talk, walk around
• 1:04:10
  your shop. Yeah, your welding stuff.
• 1:04:12
  Turn it off. Turn it back on.
• 1:04:14
  The way my shop's laid out it's if I get too far over it, I'd be
• 1:04:18
  blocked, so I need something that moves.
• 1:04:21
  It's basic. Picture a three car garage, and
• 1:04:24
  that's the end. No, no, it's just picture 3 car,
• 1:04:26
  literally a three car garage. You know how you pull a car in
• 1:04:28
  and then it'll be blocked like from the other section, but then
• 1:04:32
  he uses one? Actually, it's four cars.
• 1:04:34
  Yeah, it's four cars, 4 cars, but one.
• 1:04:36
  But one garage is basically like the entryway and workbench area.
• 1:04:41
  That's yeah, which is actually set up pretty sick.
• 1:04:44
  You would love it for sure, yeah.
• 1:04:47
  Dude so many people with such cool shops.
• 1:04:49
  Man, I know, God damn. I bet it's probably cool as hell
• 1:04:53
  in there too. Fuck you never bring me to these
• 1:04:56
  places. Yeah, what the fuck?
• 1:04:59
  You know. Fucking.
• 1:05:01
  I wanted to talk, though, about, you know, super life.
• 1:05:04
  Yeah. Do you know the videos?
• 1:05:05
  He does sometimes, I don't know if you follow him but he does
• 1:05:08
  these videos. The videos of him falling over
• 1:05:10
  things. Well, those are good.
• 1:05:13
  Those crack me up every time. Yeah, those are actually some of
• 1:05:16
  the best ones. But he he started this thing
• 1:05:18
  like years ago where like he would just film like what he was
• 1:05:20
  doing and he'd be like, yeah, you see what I did here?
• 1:05:22
  Like this customer brought and he would explain the whole thing
• 1:05:25
  and he didn't think anyone would be into that.
• 1:05:27
  And it like blew up because everyone doesn't paint.
• 1:05:32
  We don't do body work. We don't do, you know what I
• 1:05:34
  mean? So.
• 1:05:34
  We get to see it's like. Beyond body work though with him
• 1:05:36
  so that's even crazier. You could find like some tons of
• 1:05:40
  people doing body work online, but it's is it K no.
• 1:05:43
  Yeah, but like he'll explain how to how he's going to do
• 1:05:47
  something or something along those lines.
• 1:05:49
  I feel like if you did videos like that, it would also be good
• 1:05:51
  because not everyone. Hey, I'm Joe.
• 1:05:53
  Yeah, I'm welding. I'm.
• 1:05:55
  Gonna have to check that out. Yeah, yeah, check those out for
• 1:05:57
  inspiration. I I, I think it would be a good
• 1:05:59
  idea. And now he's trying to, and I
• 1:06:01
  think he has a YouTube channel he's trying to do them on there
• 1:06:03
  too, but it's like, you know, editing videos and shit is
• 1:06:07
  annoying as fun. Yeah.
• 1:06:08
  It is kind of the editing part. That's the part that sucks
• 1:06:12
  because if you just have like, dirty clips and you're just
• 1:06:15
  sitting there, what do I do with these dirty clips?
• 1:06:19
  Yeah, right. Like that's the hard part
• 1:06:20
  because then you got to make it not that you're yearning for
• 1:06:24
  somebody to enjoy your content, but like, it feels nice if
• 1:06:27
  people can enjoy your content. Yeah, you know.
• 1:06:30
  Yeah, I'm not big on well, I'm not good at the whole social
• 1:06:33
  media thing. Like if you go through my
• 1:06:35
  Instagram, it's all the same thing.
• 1:06:37
  Yeah, but it's it's nice. A roll of pictures of some welds
• 1:06:40
  and. Would would you say most of your
• 1:06:43
  work comes from word of mouth or is it from Instagram you think?
• 1:06:47
  Starting out, it was a lot from Instagram, yeah.
• 1:06:50
  Now it's moving more towards like just word of mouth.
• 1:06:53
  People are like see like the the little action tags that we were
• 1:06:58
  talking about those grab a lot of attention.
• 1:07:00
  I fuck with those like I put it on one of the cars that got sent
• 1:07:06
  down to Texas 2K and 1320 put it on their Instagram, which was.
• 1:07:12
  Pretty really. That's cool.
• 1:07:13
  I mean they they took a bunch of pictures of the car, but one of
• 1:07:16
  the pictures that they took was of my tag on the roll cage,
• 1:07:19
  which was pretty sweet. Yeah, little touches.
• 1:07:23
  Like, Zach does that too on his stuff.
• 1:07:25
  Yeah, it's a smart idea, Yeah. As long as the customer's OK
• 1:07:28
  with it. I would be that problem
• 1:07:29
  customer. I'd be like, I don't want that.
• 1:07:31
  Fucking do you and. Zach Beef.
• 1:07:32
  Do you know Zach? You don't know Zach, you fight.
• 1:07:36
  Did you say do we beef? He's another fabricator, you
• 1:07:39
  know. Yeah, but.
• 1:07:41
  No, I've seen some of his work. It's my land.
• 1:07:43
  Yeah, I mean, I guess Zach, yeah, Zach does do similar work,
• 1:07:46
  but he doesn't really do roll cages, right?
• 1:07:48
  No, dude, Zach does. But he works on like fast ass
• 1:07:52
  cars like you do. Too And and cool shit too.
• 1:07:54
  Like that van he did. Yeah.
• 1:07:55
  Bye I. Fucking no.
• 1:07:56
  He's cool. You guys will get along great.
• 1:07:57
  He's and his shop. Yeah, hopefully we do one on
• 1:08:00
  his. His is one car garage.
• 1:08:03
  Bro yeah. Makes.
• 1:08:05
  It work, yeah. Yeah, dude, it's fucking
• 1:08:07
  actually insane now that I'm thinking about it, after being
• 1:08:10
  to yours and I've been to his and I'm like, yo, the fact that
• 1:08:15
  he the shit he puts out of that place and it's only literally
• 1:08:18
  the size of this room maybe is kind of unbelievable now I'm
• 1:08:21
  thinking about it. What's your electrical bill
• 1:08:23
  like? It's not good.
• 1:08:26
  It's definitely not good. I.
• 1:08:27
  Knew it dude. There's the overhead.
• 1:08:29
  Bunch of 200, What is it, 22240? Whatever the hell you have in
• 1:08:33
  there. Oh, it's the same as the.
• 1:08:35
  House. Just running.
• 1:08:36
  Plus the heater. Oh yeah, this winter was the
• 1:08:39
  welder the welder just running? Imagine you're doing like a
• 1:08:42
  folk. Yo that shit is probably high
• 1:08:47
  house. Is going to add a lot.
• 1:08:48
  Our electric bill this this past winter was high as shit and like
• 1:08:52
  we didn't really change anything.
• 1:08:54
  Yeah. I had a car that was getting the
• 1:08:57
  tariffs picked up, I think it was January, but it was on like
• 1:09:03
  E90. He's like, listen, it's not
• 1:09:06
  going to start if it's cold in there.
• 1:09:07
  Like you got to leave the heat on.
• 1:09:08
  You got to put space heaters and that's like.
• 1:09:10
  Bro, Are you sure it's going to be real expensive?
• 1:09:13
  If a customer said that to me, I'd be like yeah, batteries are
• 1:09:15
  $200 installed. So let me know what you want to
• 1:09:17
  do. Or not.
• 1:09:18
  He's worried about the lines and shit.
• 1:09:21
  What? Really.
• 1:09:22
  The E90, it's, it's alcohol. Oh shit, I figured.
• 1:09:26
  It's like a straight alcohol. Doesn't it gel up Like does it
• 1:09:29
  gel up like E85 does? Yeah.
• 1:09:32
  I would have been like, yeah, we don't work on those cars.
• 1:09:35
  You should hear when Ethan's car tries to turn on.
• 1:09:37
  Bro that shit is just. So E90 just freezes?
• 1:09:41
  It's like E85 but worse. Turns into Jelly.
• 1:09:45
  Like it's just. More like diesel.
• 1:09:47
  Yeah, right. Yeah, it's just more alcohol
• 1:09:49
  content than gasoline. Sounds fun.
• 1:09:54
  I had to, I didn't know about the like I had to realize that
• 1:09:57
  diesel did that because I I was pouring, I was putting diesel in
• 1:10:01
  the heater, right? Like I have like a little booth
• 1:10:05
  or like a booth that I made so that I can work.
• 1:10:08
  But like I was pouring the diesel.
• 1:10:09
  I'm like, why the fuck is this shit going so damn slow?
• 1:10:12
  And it's like not coming out of the jug.
• 1:10:14
  And I'm like Jelly. I look inside and that shit is
• 1:10:17
  just gelatinous in there. I'm like what the fuck?
• 1:10:20
  Yeah, dude. Got to rub it.
• 1:10:23
  I don't know, dude. I I that's that's a good that's
• 1:10:28
  a good little OP you got over there, dude. 4 Bay garage at
• 1:10:31
  home making money. Yeah, it's a good setup.
• 1:10:35
  God, how many years you think till you get a shot?
• 1:10:37
  Dude, I'm calling it man. You're gonna make, you're gonna
• 1:10:40
  find something one day or something.
• 1:10:41
  I don't know. I don't know either though.
• 1:10:44
  I don't know. I'm gonna stick with it as long
• 1:10:47
  as I can. Because there's it sounds like
• 1:10:48
  you have a lot of work. That's why I'm like if that I'm
• 1:10:51
  going to. You know what he's going to do
• 1:10:52
  before he gets a shop, He's going to build a bigger garage
• 1:10:55
  on his property. Is there a room?
• 1:10:57
  I can see you doing that. You think you could?
• 1:10:58
  Do you? You got a, you got room.
• 1:11:00
  I don't know, it's, you know, kids are getting older, we're
• 1:11:04
  going to need swing sets and. Yeah, but all.
• 1:11:06
  Kinds of shit. I don't know man, and.
• 1:11:08
  Just maybe having money for when kids get older and become more
• 1:11:11
  expensive. And like Disney and oh.
• 1:11:15
  My God, that's like a couple bands right there worth of oh.
• 1:11:21
  Yeah, I got to keep the cars coming in just so I can afford
• 1:11:23
  to take vacation. How old are the kids?
• 1:11:25
  So I have a boy, he's a year and a half and I have a girl, she's
• 1:11:31
  three months. Bro you, you're right at the
• 1:11:36
  beginning of it. Yeah, like.
• 1:11:40
  Man I'm trying to think if it's going to be easier or harder as
• 1:11:45
  they get older for when. You're well, I think having the
• 1:11:47
  shop there is going to make things a lot better.
• 1:11:49
  Yeah, but you know, still like if I'm inside, if I'm in, if I'm
• 1:11:53
  in the shop and I know my kids are inside, I feel like.
• 1:11:56
  Well, that, that's part of getting in there early too.
• 1:11:59
  Yeah, because I don't feel guilty if they're sleeping.
• 1:12:03
  You got you got your kids on a good schedule.
• 1:12:04
  Because I know that that's also a weird thing.
• 1:12:06
  Yeah, right they be. Fucking awake till.
• 1:12:09
  No, they they both sleep great so I got lucky.
• 1:12:13
  You seem like a baby that would. Fucking I was a Dream Baby.
• 1:12:17
  What is that? Like I did.
• 1:12:18
  I was perfect. I was a horrible.
• 1:12:20
  Child, my sister was terrible. I was a horrible child.
• 1:12:23
  Yeah, my mom gets pissed because she was like, you gave me a
• 1:12:26
  problem right from the rib. I mean.
• 1:12:30
  I was just like a problem like like getting out was getting me
• 1:12:34
  out of there was an issue. I did not want to.
• 1:12:36
  Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it was me too.
• 1:12:37
  It's. Warm as fucking here.
• 1:12:40
  OK, now it's just getting weird, man.
• 1:12:42
  That is kind of weird. Malcolm just shaking his head.
• 1:12:47
  You know. I don't know.
• 1:12:48
  I was not a good child. And then my brother and sister
• 1:12:50
  were good. You were the first.
• 1:12:54
  Damn, see if I feel like if you have a child that's a problem
• 1:12:58
  first, then that would probably be like, I don't know if I want
• 1:13:00
  to have any more, but they were like, yeah, fuck it, let's.
• 1:13:03
  Go for it. You got any siblings, Joe?
• 1:13:04
  Yeah. Older.
• 1:13:06
  Younger. Younger.
• 1:13:08
  I got a brother and sister, yeah.
• 1:13:09
  Isn't it sick? Yeah.
• 1:13:10
  It's like, yeah, you know what I mean?
• 1:13:15
  Like. I would, yeah.
• 1:13:16
  I would much rather be. The older I had to be the one to
• 1:13:18
  like push these motherfucking boundaries.
• 1:13:21
  And then all of a sudden my siblings, like they just had no
• 1:13:25
  boundaries. Like it was like, yo, what the
• 1:13:27
  hell? Yeah, yeah.
• 1:13:29
  And they were just doing even more stuff than what I they took
• 1:13:32
  what I was doing and they was just doing to like times 10.
• 1:13:36
  Yeah, I guess that's usually how it.
• 1:13:37
  Goes right. I'm like what the fuck had I've
• 1:13:39
  worked hard for that like. Like the like the next kids get
• 1:13:43
  treated easier, right? Like their lives are easier
• 1:13:46
  sometimes. I don't know.
• 1:13:47
  They just wasn't. They weren't getting in trouble
• 1:13:49
  for the things I was getting in. Trouble Yeah yeah, cuz your
• 1:13:52
  parents are just like kind of over it at that point they're
• 1:13:54
  like. How old are you, Joe?
• 1:13:56
  Oh. Fuck, I just turned 30.
• 1:13:59
  He's like, I don't know. It's easy to remember now 30.
• 1:14:01

• 1:14:05

• 1:15:00
  Oh shit, that was Malcolm. That wasn't me.
• 1:15:03
  You would like that shit? You fucking actually?
• 1:15:05
  Somebody told me about that name.
• 1:15:07
  It wasn't. Oh no.
• 1:15:09
  He's away from me. I gave it the golden shower,
• 1:15:11
  dude, that's for sure. I'll fucking.
• 1:15:14
  It'll look cool when I'm done with it, Joe.
• 1:15:16
  When do you think you're going to drift again?
• 1:15:18
  Hell yeah, dude, that let's let's get on that.
• 1:15:20
  Who do you think is? Who do you think is going to
• 1:15:22
  drift first, your S13 or my S13? My car's in a lot better shape
• 1:15:24
  than yours is right now. Yeah, you can say that again,
• 1:15:29
  but his his rear recorders are cut off too.
• 1:15:31
  He's been doing some shit on there.
• 1:15:32
  I. Think he's literally the
• 1:15:33
  fabricator? He can.
• 1:15:34
  Go. Yeah, but you?
• 1:15:36
  Know to do that. I'm just saying.
• 1:15:38
  No, you're right though, I got to work time into into my
• 1:15:41
  schedule to actually touch it because.
• 1:15:43
  Do hour a day. Yeah, not every day, but just
• 1:15:46
  like an hour here. He's got a surge tank in that
• 1:15:48
  fucking thing. A fuel surge.
• 1:15:51
  Tank Yeah, shit's sick. Yeah, it's pretty cool.
• 1:15:53
  I was like, did you need that? He's like, yeah, sometimes.
• 1:15:56
  Dude, I don't know what that's that's to prevent the fuel
• 1:15:58
  slosh, right? Yeah, yeah, I need.
• 1:16:01
  That so I cheaped out and I got a like a drag style sump fuel
• 1:16:05
  cell. OK.
• 1:16:07
  It's like, yeah. In the bag like the OEM trunk
• 1:16:10
  too. It's like in it's in the OEM.
• 1:16:11
  Trunk like with Tom's. Yes, yeah, I think Tom's was.
• 1:16:15
  Just Tom copied me. Oh, there you go.
• 1:16:17
  There the truth comes out. No, Tom.
• 1:16:20
  Copy Jimmy. Yeah, I even made a little.
• 1:16:21
  Parcel cover for it on the top. It's like, yeah, you like that.
• 1:16:24
  Like, yeah, that was you. I'm over here like, oh, nice
• 1:16:29
  work. Tom Yeah, right.
• 1:16:31
  He was going to take take credit for it too.
• 1:16:33
  That's crazy. I think he did.
• 1:16:35
  I'm pretty sure I thought he did, yeah.
• 1:16:37
  Because. He's like, hey, you like that
• 1:16:39
  little thing I did on that? I didn't actually see it, but.
• 1:16:41
  No, he. We called you right after, yeah,
• 1:16:45
  Or called me after. You.
• 1:16:47
  I didn't see the actual thing but he was talking about it.
• 1:16:49
  No, he. He was talking about like,
• 1:16:51
  wrapping it in carpet too. Like making it look real.
• 1:16:53
  Oh yeah. That'd be cool.
• 1:16:54
  Yeah, yeah. So we'll see somebody have a
• 1:16:57
  problem with it though. Black marine grade carpet will
• 1:16:59
  do the trick. And it's adhesive.
• 1:17:01
  Yeah, You know what I mean? You know what I mean?
• 1:17:04
  Don't. They're taking that, Somebody's
• 1:17:06
  taking it. That's like my 5th idea.
• 1:17:08
  Honestly, we said a lot of things on this podcast that were
• 1:17:10
  pretty good ideas, especially the aluminum cage one.
• 1:17:12
  I hope someone takes that. Dude.
• 1:17:15
  Lightweight. The podcast listeners give us so
• 1:17:18
  many ideas, dude. Random ideas.
• 1:17:21
  And they've also watched us all evolve.
• 1:17:24
  Specifically, you I. Guess.
• 1:17:26
  Because you, like you like, weren't even really drifting
• 1:17:30
  that much when we started this and now you're fucking got A1J
• 1:17:33
  cars gold you paint. Isn't the one J great?
• 1:17:36
  The one J is great, isn't it? Yeah, it's good.
• 1:17:40
  I put a lot of miles on mine, dude.
• 1:17:42
  I I was doing like I was doing like 100 miles a day going back
• 1:17:46
  and forth to work. And it was probably fine.
• 1:17:48
  Great. Yeah.
• 1:17:50
  Sr. Who?
• 1:17:51
  Yeah, I didn't want to ask that question, but SRSR or 1J?
• 1:17:56
  No, I love my Sr. But why dude, you have.
• 1:18:00
  You heard an Sri. Had one that I mean like yeah, I
• 1:18:03
  heard recently like it sounds pretty good, but.
• 1:18:06
  When Carl has something and he doesn't have the other one,
• 1:18:09
  he'll never say the other one is better.
• 1:18:10
  No, no, no, no. The Sr. was good for some
• 1:18:14
  things. For you, it's OK.
• 1:18:16
  'Cause I I even drove when I drove Jimmy's.
• 1:18:19
  I don't know what engine that is.
• 1:18:20
  I don't even know if that's an Sr.
• 1:18:22
  Anymore I think it's an Sr. Which one?
• 1:18:23
  Or the purple car. Is it a 1J?
• 1:18:26
  No, you would have no. No, no, it's Sr., It's AI.
• 1:18:27
  Think the purple car, the coupe. But it's like a very fast.
• 1:18:30
  Sr. they're both coupes he has he bought.
• 1:18:32
  He built the same as that car with a different.
• 1:18:34
  Engine I drove it, thing was fast and like that.
• 1:18:38
  I feel like is the top right. It's a good Sr.
• 1:18:41
  I don't know how much power it makes, but it probably makes
• 1:18:43
  like. Faster than any other Sr. that's
• 1:18:45
  for damn sure. And I still, I was like, damn.
• 1:18:49
  One Jay-Z No dude, no way bro. Balance A.
• 1:18:53
  Dime a nickel 1/4. A penny.
• 1:18:55
  Hold up, you're telling me you drove an S13 built by Jimmy
• 1:18:58
  Oaks, which means it's pretty fucking nice and it had an Sr.
• 1:19:01
  in it, OK, making possibly 400 horsepower at the wheels, and
• 1:19:04
  you drifted at an E town and your first thought when you got
• 1:19:06
  out of the car was one Jay-Z dude?
• 1:19:08
  Because. Jeff, Jeff Stoneback was right
• 1:19:10
  next to him as well, and he was just right off the Yeah, that's.
• 1:19:17
  Yeah, but when you drove that car, your first thought was?
• 1:19:20
  I drove it pretty good too. Your first thought was damn S
• 1:19:22
  thirteens are nice. The first thought that I had was
• 1:19:25
  this feels like a video game, OK.
• 1:19:27
  Like, this is very, you know, drove literally like the video
• 1:19:33
  game. I cannot stress that enough.
• 1:19:35
  Yeah. And then, I don't know, I like
• 1:19:38
  to think about is my little car at home, You know what I mean?
• 1:19:41
  Like I wore a car for that thing.
• 1:19:43
  Dude what? Do you think you would
• 1:19:44
  appreciate? It what do you think does?
• 1:19:46
  Is it going to look cool at the fashion boot?
• 1:19:47
  I think it's a cool looking drift car.
• 1:19:49
  Why do you keep saying that it's a cool looking car?
• 1:19:50
  Because the pain is not Immaculate.
• 1:19:52
  I know, but, but it's all right. But yeah, it looks good.
• 1:19:55
  Better. Than the blue.
• 1:19:55
  Dude, in photos, that car's honestly shockingly sick
• 1:20:01
  looking. I know, In photos, yeah, for
• 1:20:03
  sure. In person.
• 1:20:05
  You know it's a drift car. It's a 20 footer, 2010 footer.
• 1:20:07
  It's a fucking make your car run.
• 1:20:09
  That's how it works though. I mean, yeah.
• 1:20:11
  Like you, you do it once, you scrape it all off, you do it
• 1:20:14
  again. He's.
• 1:20:14
  Gonna break that shit and I'm gonna break months anyway.
• 1:20:16
  Yeah. So it's like whatever, 2 weeks.
• 1:20:18
  Yeah, but I. Knew you were going to say that.
• 1:20:20
  That's why I didn't want to drive it today.
• 1:20:22
  I was like, I don't want Frankie to see this.
• 1:20:23
  I'm just, I, I can't lie. Like I'm not going to lie, you
• 1:20:26
  know, I'm not going to be like, yo, it's Immaculate.
• 1:20:27
  No, no, no, I'm not going to do that.
• 1:20:29
  Shit, that shit was the hardest thing ever to.
• 1:20:30
  Lay I think it looks good. The fact that it even looks like
• 1:20:33
  that, I'm telling you, I saw some other candy jobs and that
• 1:20:36
  was the biggest fear of mine was that it was going to be all
• 1:20:38
  like. Street.
• 1:20:40
  That was candy, Yeah. Yeah, for a candy paint job.
• 1:20:43
  First time I feel. Like, that's pretty good.
• 1:20:45
  That's not bad. Yeah, trying, yeah, but no, that
• 1:20:49
  changes it. Yeah, that too is.
• 1:20:51
  It Malcolm, could you bring up BN Sports IS3?
• 1:20:53
  100 or silver? Silver based.
• 1:20:56
  That shit was fucking difficult to say how many.
• 1:20:59
  Coaches, does it take to get there?
• 1:21:01
  Four, and they were four. Very balanced.
• 1:21:05
  That is literally the colour, yeah.
• 1:21:06
  Like to me, when I see that car, I'm like, that's literally the
• 1:21:09
  car. That's that I'm the team move
• 1:21:12
  version of that for, yeah. It's pretty eyebrows now.
• 1:21:15
  I got them. I got them in the trunk.
• 1:21:16
  They flew off when I left my block today.
• 1:21:19
  I painted them yesterday. If they flew off, I'm on the
• 1:21:23
  phone with my buddies. I'm like, I think I just saw my
• 1:21:25
  eyelid fly off. Oh, you actually.
• 1:21:28
  Pull over, pull over, get out the front.
• 1:21:31
  One of them's missing. I'm like.
• 1:21:32
  Not again, man. What kind of tape are you using?
• 1:21:34
  Like 3 M That was tape. Three M But that shit was just
• 1:21:37
  like old, like it's been in my desk like a.
• 1:21:40
  Work van you know what you need. Panel Bond.
• 1:21:43
  No Pistonio. Shit, ever.
• 1:21:47
  Coming off, you need that three M tape that you're using, but
• 1:21:49
  you need the adhesive promoter that they sell.
• 1:21:52
  Talk to Ethan about. It I literally the only reason
• 1:21:55
  why it came off last time was because I didn't alcohol wipe it
• 1:21:57
  and then I alcohol wipe it. Basically that.
• 1:22:00
  And I was like, what? The fuck?
• 1:22:01
  Yeah, but I think. Something might be in that
• 1:22:04
  adhesive promoter that's even better, but yeah.
• 1:22:07
  I'm getting what? How far are we in this?
• 1:22:09
  We're probably like an hour's, Yeah, some change in there.
• 1:22:12
  I have a livery coming right now getting dropped off on the in
• 1:22:15
  the car, so then I could go home tomorrow and put it on.
• 1:22:17
  That's just going to be cool. So you're going to put this, how
• 1:22:20
  ridiculous is it before you post up at the booth with some
• 1:22:24
  fucking shit? Did you see this yet, Malcolm?
• 1:22:28
  Yeah. What?
• 1:22:28
  What I have? No idea what it is, but it was
• 1:22:30
  going to be fucking wild. Yeah, so we're going to have to
• 1:22:34
  screen that after this. Nope, Yup, Nope, Yup.
• 1:22:37
  We're going to have to screen that real quick.
• 1:22:39
  Whose car is it? Whose booth is it?
• 1:22:42
  I won't. Bring it.
• 1:22:43
  OK, Deal. Deal.
• 1:22:47
  I put this shit on or nothing. A deal?
• 1:22:50
  Look at this, you said no to this.
• 1:22:52
  I didn't say no to that. How?
• 1:22:53
  Sick that came out. I never said no to that.
• 1:22:56
  Yeah. You did.
• 1:22:56
  You were like. That's not a no.
• 1:23:01
  Oh, trust the process. Just trust.
• 1:23:03
  Don't stick your nose where it shouldn't be.
• 1:23:06
  We're screening that. Nope.
• 1:23:12
  It's going to be sick. Just shut up.
• 1:23:14
  I can. I mean, I didn't screen the
• 1:23:18
  paint job and we saw that. Exactly.
• 1:23:23
  That was the biggest thing too. I was like.
• 1:23:27
  I mean, the paint job is whatever.
• 1:23:28
  It's a fucking drift car, like, you know.
• 1:23:31
  No, I still want it to be good. That's my car.
• 1:23:33
  It's not just a drift. Car Well then.
• 1:23:36
  It's my car. This guy's fucking hilarious.
• 1:23:43
  No, that's a good point though. It's like Derek arguing with me.
• 1:23:46
  No Derek, dude. Got no car, dude.
• 1:23:48
  Got no car? I thought you bought an S14.
• 1:23:53
  No, I'm talking about you. Oh yeah, I got 5, but yeah.
• 1:23:57
  And Derek, None of them work. I don't.
• 1:23:59
  Give a damn, my water pump just broke in the truck too.
• 1:24:01
  Now you got none. Toyota seems kind of nice right
• 1:24:07
  now. Probably getting mad.
• 1:24:10
  I'm going to stop. I'm just saying I worked hard on
• 1:24:13
  my shit. It's not perfect, but it will be
• 1:24:15
  good. But then just show me the
• 1:24:16
  livery. Why are you mad?
• 1:24:17
  No. Because I'm going to keep
• 1:24:18
  working hard on it because it's mine.
• 1:24:20
  We go through this whole thing where I'm making my statement by
• 1:24:25
  doing. That makes it seem like you
• 1:24:26
  don't think it's going to look good.
• 1:24:27
  No, that's that's makes it's I don't want you to see it because
• 1:24:31
  you're going to tell me it doesn't look good and I'm
• 1:24:33
  trusting myself that it's going to look.
• 1:24:35
  Good, so you don't want to hear that it looks like shit.
• 1:24:37
  Just like everything else. Yeah, all.
• 1:24:38
  Right. Fair enough.
• 1:24:39
  Everything I've done, zero approval from you.
• 1:24:42
  Car looks good. I know because it's me.
• 1:24:45
  That's 100% me in there, in there.
• 1:24:47
  But you asked me what color. I said it would look good, and
• 1:24:50
  it looks good. Delivery.
• 1:24:53
  I know you didn't come for a debate, but you're living it
• 1:24:55
  now. So delivery.
• 1:24:57
  Will be cool. It'll be cool.
• 1:24:59
  OK. It'll be cool.
• 1:25:00
  We'll see. I wouldn't deviate that far.
• 1:25:05
  I you haven't deviated that far ever.
• 1:25:09
  That shit is great. What do you mean?
• 1:25:13
  And like. No, I mean like your, your car
• 1:25:15
  looks good. Like you never.
• 1:25:16
  You never made it look ugly. There was a, there was a, there
• 1:25:20
  was an opportunity for it to look pretty bad, I'm not going
• 1:25:23
  to lie. Wait like paint wise or livery
• 1:25:25
  wise? I have a guess.
• 1:25:26
  Anything, anything I do could look bad.
• 1:25:28
  Come on. I don't know, I, I feel like
• 1:25:32
  every time, every time you do something to your car, right?
• 1:25:34
  Like I feel like I should be scared, but then I'm like,
• 1:25:36
  everything he's done in his car always looks good.
• 1:25:39
  Yeah. Because you got to trust trust
• 1:25:41
  bro. You work hard on it.
• 1:25:44
  Me and Quan talk about this all the time because Quan is the
• 1:25:46
  same way. You work hard on something.
• 1:25:49
  There's no way. Remember when K was like be
• 1:25:52
  undeniable? Yeah, I am undeniable bro.
• 1:25:57
  My car is super cool to me. I love it Looks cool.
• 1:26:00
  Wait till it's. Done.
• 1:26:00
  And you got a lot of hate on that wing.
• 1:26:02
  And I was like, I kind of like the wing.
• 1:26:03
  The wing is sick. The end car has wing.
• 1:26:06
  It has to have it. Well, those are also people that
• 1:26:08
  don't really like they those people probably just don't like
• 1:26:12
  the same kind of stuff that we like.
• 1:26:14
  Yes. I don't even really like the
• 1:26:17
  fact that I have to worry about driving it around now.
• 1:26:19
  Before I used to just fucking like just fucking hitting
• 1:26:22
  anything. You mean body kit was a little
• 1:26:24
  higher? Like now it's like annoying but
• 1:26:28
  I also am getting a livery because of the fact that I'm not
• 1:26:31
  super happy with the quality of my paint so I'm.
• 1:26:33
  Like oh that will help. Yep, that will help.
• 1:26:35
  See. See Trust.
• 1:26:40
  Yeah, What was that animal style that said that what you got put
• 1:26:43
  lots of stickers on the car because the.
• 1:26:44
  I mean, they're fucking right if.
• 1:26:46
  They said that I don't need a lot of them, but just enough.
• 1:26:49
  Yeah, he's probably not going to have like a crazy livery, but
• 1:26:52
  like the Front Street cars, you can't tell.
• 1:26:55
  I mean you could tell, but imagine those without a livery.
• 1:26:59
  Tom's car painted pretty nice. Yo, yeah, Tom's car was.
• 1:27:02
  Tom's car was painted pretty nice.
• 1:27:03
  Yeah, that's better. And then he hit everyone.
• 1:27:05
  They have a tremendous B hole. Is that his name?
• 1:27:10
  Wait. Painted them.
• 1:27:14
  Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. By Jimmy.
• 1:27:17
  But they he didn't paint. He painted Tom's car, right?
• 1:27:21
  Yeah. And I think.
• 1:27:23
  I don't think. He no, I don't really know who,
• 1:27:25
  but regardless Tom's car came out sick better than any job
• 1:27:28
  that I would have gave him. Like I'm not fucking great but
• 1:27:32
  like fucking shit my car looks a lot better than some of the
• 1:27:34
  other people charging money. Yeah, I mean, Tom's car, Tom
• 1:27:38
  always brought it to this old guy in Staten Island, but I
• 1:27:40
  guess the last time he brought it to that guy because it was up
• 1:27:42
  there already and then he did it done in like 1 hour.
• 1:27:45
  So they didn't really have a choice bro.
• 1:27:47
  Yeah, God no. Yeah, he's been to the shop once
• 1:27:51
  to get his car aligned. Jimmy brought his car here to
• 1:27:53
  get aligned it. Yeah, I remember talking to him.
• 1:27:54
  Yeah, I painted that whole car. It did come out good.
• 1:27:57
  I mean, you know. Painted under the over fenders
• 1:27:59
  and everything. Like who does that now?
• 1:28:01
  Dude, not a lot. Yeah, I wouldn't even do that.
• 1:28:04
  That's. Crazy.
• 1:28:04
  Like an extra. I don't know.
• 1:28:06
  I don't know how X amount of paint and time too.
• 1:28:09
  Like you know, you got to prep that area.
• 1:28:11
  Yeah, right. I want I want the rivets paint
• 1:28:14
  matched so that's why I wouldn't do it.
• 1:28:15
  Yeah, yeah. That's the only reason I would,
• 1:28:18
  but I guess you could like take it off.
• 1:28:20
  I mount it. I painted like Ethan's car has a
• 1:28:25
  bunch of rib nuts, and I painted like the rib, like the heads of
• 1:28:28
  the rib nuts. Yeah, like a bunch.
• 1:28:31
  Yeah, just in case. To me that looks a lot better
• 1:28:33
  than like having fucking rib nut in a big ass bolt.
• 1:28:36
  Yeah. Yeah, I don't know.
• 1:28:38
  I feel the same way about like the arrow catch latches too
• 1:28:40
  though, like a. Lot of shit about that, yeah.
• 1:28:43
  These people are like, oh they look stupid.
• 1:28:45
  Paint match. Oh wait, they're stupid.
• 1:28:47
  Black. Yeah, it just looks.
• 1:28:48
  Oh, the big ones, right Yeah, the one where you go yeah yeah,
• 1:28:51
  paint match sounds like it could be cool cuz.
• 1:28:55
  Minor paint match. They're cool, trust me.
• 1:28:57
  Yeah, cuz cuz regular is not for sure cool.
• 1:29:01
  Like for sure it's not. So yeah, paint match would
• 1:29:04
  probably be the only way. Yeah, because those things are
• 1:29:06
  just too fucking big, dude. Like they're massive.
• 1:29:09
  It's like you're when you look at a car, someone's hood, your
• 1:29:12
  eye shouldn't be going to the fucking hood latch, right?
• 1:29:15
  It should be going to like the hood.
• 1:29:17
  Yeah, but those things like drive your eyes right to the
• 1:29:20
  fucking big ass tube things right on the front of it.
• 1:29:23
  I was trying to fucking put them fucking Chrome ones in my car
• 1:29:26
  but it actually fixed my hood latch.
• 1:29:28
  That would be cool. So I was like, damn.
• 1:29:30
  Because those are just going to be smaller though, probably
• 1:29:32
  right? Like.
• 1:29:32
  Those little circle guys at the end, yeah.
• 1:29:35
  I don't know why those fucking arrow latch things took off so
• 1:29:38
  crazy, but I mean, they they work when they work like when
• 1:29:41
  you when someone installs them properly, they work, but they're
• 1:29:45
  also a little bit. Yeah, they're kind of a pain in
• 1:29:50
  the ass. Yeah, you got to get the, you
• 1:29:51
  got to get legit ones. Like even when even when they're
• 1:29:54
  installed right. I remember we opened one once.
• 1:29:56
  I don't know if it was like freezing cold out.
• 1:29:58
  I don't think it was opened It fucking broken.
• 1:30:00
  I'm like OK cool. So that's why why this guy
• 1:30:02
  latch? Boom.
• 1:30:03
  Like a pin. Yeah, well, pin the thing right
• 1:30:07
  through. How are you going to break that
• 1:30:09
  those? Are fun until you lose a pin.
• 1:30:11
  Fuck. I just thought of a reason why
• 1:30:13
  they made those arrow catches, so you can see when it's open.
• 1:30:15
  Yeah. OK, now I get it.
• 1:30:17
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:30:19
  The cheap ones are funny though, like they jam up like the
• 1:30:23
  regular arrow catches, but then you go to force it like, you
• 1:30:26
  know, sometimes and it breaks. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:30:27
  They hand that brakes right off. That's the shit I broke.
• 1:30:30
  And now you can't do shit right. What would I do right there?
• 1:30:33
  I would shove like a Alan key in that bitch you.
• 1:30:36
  Got to take the whole hood off at that point.
• 1:30:37
  Just leave it wherever you were. Yeah, that's that thing is
• 1:30:40
  flying. Fuck that dude.
• 1:30:46
  You know what doesn't look good? The B in sports hood.
• 1:30:48
  You saw that shit? I don't like it.
• 1:30:50
  Yeah, OK. It's very vented.
• 1:30:51
  We can agree on that. Dunlap Aero Solutions, the guy
• 1:30:55
  who's made my eyelids, he's doing a hood too, so really I'll
• 1:30:59
  have that hopefully. Hopefully it doesn't look like
• 1:31:02
  the B in Sports 1. No, you got eyelids made.
• 1:31:05
  So I had I had made eyelids like myself, OK.
• 1:31:10
  And around that time another kid, Sun lab Aero solutions now
• 1:31:16
  was talking about making eyelids and that guy was going to me for
• 1:31:21
  advice and all I did was layer fiberglass on my headlight that
• 1:31:24
  I rubbed in Vaseline like at night.
• 1:31:27
  I literally was like dude this might be a good idea.
• 1:31:30
  Fucking put the fiberglass. Red.
• 1:31:32
  Is that what you're supposed to do though I guess?
• 1:31:34
  Fuck do I know. I literally did not know how to
• 1:31:36
  do anything. And then Jack was going to me
• 1:31:38
  for advice and I was like, dude, you're soaring right now, bro.
• 1:31:42
  Just just I keep running with it at this point, like I can't give
• 1:31:47
  you any better advice than you're giving yourself.
• 1:31:49
  So you ran with it made eyelids. I bought a pair sweet.
• 1:31:53
  Like I bought a pair like I was like, bam, get made these.
• 1:31:58
  Bam. They look great right on the
• 1:31:59
  core. I don't remember where mine came
• 1:32:02
  from, I think they were just on eBay or something.
• 1:32:03
  Dude, tons of them on eBay that kind of do the same thing.
• 1:32:07
  It's just, it's nice when somebody like makes it like, do
• 1:32:11
  you know, they fitted it the way that they would want on like the
• 1:32:14
  IS it needs to be like a little bit like wait.
• 1:32:18
  What? That's how the IS be looking.
• 1:32:20
  They got to be normal like this. Some of the eyelids are like but
• 1:32:25
  like jacks are fucking. It looks like the sun.
• 1:32:31
  Dude that shit makes the front of the car look so different bro
• 1:32:36
  I fucking love it Oh my God. Yeah, they definitely look good
• 1:32:40
  till they fly off, but that's just drill it into the fucking
• 1:32:43
  headlight bro. There you go.
• 1:32:44
  I'm so pissed I didn't do a great better job now that I.
• 1:32:47
  But you found it. You didn't lose.
• 1:32:48
  It No, I'm talking about the fucking paint.
• 1:32:50
  That shit is. I knew you were not going to
• 1:32:53
  like it. I didn't mean to upset you.
• 1:32:55
  No, because now I. Actually like the way the car
• 1:32:57
  looks. No, because I'm like fuck, I
• 1:32:59
  needed it to be. Do not repaint your car in two.
• 1:33:02
  Days I needed to focus more on no because I know where I messed
• 1:33:05
  up like on the paint so now it's like you can't undo that like
• 1:33:10
  where are you you're. Talking about the little things
• 1:33:11
  on the right side, like the like anything.
• 1:33:14
  No, it's there's these, there's blotchiness like on the bottom.
• 1:33:17
  Oh. I didn't even fucking see any of
• 1:33:19
  that shit. The the the blotchy, the the the
• 1:33:21
  fucking like. To me to me it just looks like
• 1:33:25
  if it was cut and buff really nice.
• 1:33:28
  I feel like it would shine like a motherfucker.
• 1:33:31
  We'll see what happens in 2 days.
• 1:33:32
  That's the only thing I I, I would fucking leave that shit.
• 1:33:35
  I would not repaint that thing. So no.
• 1:33:37
  It's going to get repainted when I fucking blow it up.
• 1:33:39
  Yeah, it breaks a bunch of times.
• 1:33:41
  I am done, dude. That you know how long it took?
• 1:33:44
  Fucking two hours. 2 1/2 hours of me on the gun.
• 1:33:47
  That doesn't include, like, waiting.
• 1:33:49
  Hell, it's pretty okay. It looks pretty okay.
• 1:33:52
  That shit looks sick as fuck in this photo, yeah.
• 1:33:54
  It's pretty cool. Yeah, dude, just leave that.
• 1:33:56
  I mean, I would obviously cut and buff it better.
• 1:34:00
  I guess I. Don't know, the next time is
• 1:34:02
  gonna be better than the last. That's probably how you got
• 1:34:04
  better, dude. Yeah, fucking it.
• 1:34:07
  Was like every time I crashed I would cut things off and start
• 1:34:09
  over. That's that's why I asked about
• 1:34:11
  if the car was your test on me. I was like, that's kind of what
• 1:34:14
  that. Car.
• 1:34:15
  Yeah, it really was like it started.
• 1:34:16
  I bought that car completely stock and it turned into what it
• 1:34:19
  is now. That's fucking.
• 1:34:22
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Didn't.
• 1:34:23
  You, that was. You did some shit on that car
• 1:34:25
  you didn't like right too like you?
• 1:34:27
  Yeah, like I did. AI did a tube front years ago,
• 1:34:30
  the first one I ever did and it came out not good.
• 1:34:33
  I just saw, was it the one in the photo?
• 1:34:35
  No, not the not that recent one. The same thing.
• 1:34:39
  I crashed. I cut it off and figured it out
• 1:34:44
  how to make it better. It got the S&W cage like we
• 1:34:48
  talked about. That sucked.
• 1:34:50
  It cut that out and built like a real cage in it.
• 1:34:54
  What's S and WS? And W makes pre bent cages like
• 1:34:59
  they give you all the pieces and you just have to like cut notch
• 1:35:01
  them and Weld it in but they leave lots of extra room so that
• 1:35:08
  it can fit in the car without an issue.
• 1:35:11
  Cars. Yeah.
• 1:35:12
  And then it was inch and three quarter also.
• 1:35:16
  So the tubes were really big. It just looked wrong.
• 1:35:20
  It didn't fit well. The door bar sucked.
• 1:35:22
  You want the smallest tube you can, Yeah, Legally put, Yeah,
• 1:35:25
  Because if you get big, it's just going to start looking like
• 1:35:28
  a jungle jam or something in there.
• 1:35:29
  Like what the? Fuck yeah, it did not look like
• 1:35:32
  Josh's car, that's for sure. Wait.
• 1:35:34
  Did you say, did you say they make those kits to fit multiple
• 1:35:37
  cars or do they make it per car? No, they make it per car OK, but
• 1:35:40
  like they leave lots of room so that you know you don't have
• 1:35:44
  fitment issues. You can kind of put it wherever
• 1:35:47
  you. Want now?
• 1:35:48
  Isn't there another new company called like?
• 1:35:51
  Cage kits, Yes. Yeah, I was about to ask, do
• 1:35:53
  these people take your business? Because I'll start talking bad
• 1:35:55
  about it. I'm a I'm a certified Cage kits
• 1:35:58
  installer. Oh really?
• 1:36:00
  Yeah. Like legitimately fuck yeah.
• 1:36:02
  Oh, OK, so. You in.
• 1:36:03
  You work with them now instead. That's.
• 1:36:05
  Fire Yeah. So like if anybody, if you buy a
• 1:36:09
  cage kits cage on their website, they have like, you know, one of
• 1:36:14
  those things you put in your zip code and find who's local to
• 1:36:17
  you, your. Name is literally like a like a
• 1:36:19
  dealer. No, yeah.
• 1:36:21
  You're a businessman, yeah. What other cool shit you got?
• 1:36:24
  Going on, Yeah. What?
• 1:36:24
  What, what else you be doing there?
• 1:36:26
  That's 'cause you're not 'cause you fuck around with the carbon
• 1:36:29
  fiber. So what, you make things as
• 1:36:31
  well, like not out of tube or metal?
• 1:36:36
  No, not really. Does that classify as
• 1:36:38
  fabricating? Yeah, right.
• 1:36:39
  I don't. Know everything's fabricating
• 1:36:43
  There you go. You know what I mean?
• 1:36:47
  Yeah, look, yeah, that was like the first time I really did
• 1:36:49
  anything with carbon fiber though.
• 1:36:51
  And I just bought it like as a a sheet.
• 1:36:53
  I didn't like lay carbon fiber layers or any of that kind.
• 1:36:57
  Of I don't even know I. Feel like you would fuck with
• 1:36:59
  that shit, Carl. It's like fiberglass.
• 1:37:01
  I know I'm trying to think of what it means and I'm like.
• 1:37:04
  What the fuck? Because you did it on a BMW.
• 1:37:06
  That's kind of like an expensive.
• 1:37:08
  Ass project to try that. Yeah, right.
• 1:37:10
  Trust me, you saw this car. You'd be like, oh, he's past
• 1:37:12
  that point already. Yeah dude, the whole fucking
• 1:37:14
  interiors ripped out like this shit is crazy.
• 1:37:18
  And you're just like, this is a brand new car.
• 1:37:19
  Well, yeah, six years old, minus A2 for girls.
• 1:37:21
  So it's like 4 years. Yeah, it isn't.
• 1:37:24
  This is a pretty new car. What?
• 1:37:25
  Do you have planned for like, what's your five years looking
• 1:37:29
  like? No shop, talk, whatever.
• 1:37:30
  You could stay. You could stay at your house,
• 1:37:32
  Joe. You could stay.
• 1:37:36
  I want to keep doing what I'm doing really.
• 1:37:38
  I'd like to start putting out some like production stuff.
• 1:37:42
  Just I got to figure out what's marketable as we talked about in
• 1:37:47
  the the shop tour too, like there's people making bash bars
• 1:37:53
  and stuff like that. Like you got to find something
• 1:37:56
  that's not already flooded in the market.
• 1:38:00
  I don't know what would that be. Yeah, I don't know either.
• 1:38:03
  I mean, I I tell them like bash bars is a good idea.
• 1:38:06
  I mean limitless auto makes them now they're fucking nice, but
• 1:38:10
  St. faction went out of business so now there's like a big
• 1:38:12
  opening. So it's definitely worth
• 1:38:14
  considering, but. What about, like, what about
• 1:38:16
  like, seat brackets? Dude, Yeah, yo, you could whip.
• 1:38:19
  Up you could. Whip up some seat brackets, man,
• 1:38:22
  and you're a pretty tall guy. Yeah, you have an S13 and an IS.
• 1:38:28
  Yeah, right. Like you kind of got a couple of
• 1:38:29
  platforms you could play around with here.
• 1:38:31
  The seat bracket idea is good because there was a company, I
• 1:38:34
  think Garage Star or something, I don't know if you remember.
• 1:38:36
  That and they don't make those anymore.
• 1:38:37
  They. Don't make them and that would
• 1:38:38
  be a good. That was the lowest dude, I got
• 1:38:41
  a customer for you right now. I know I got I got 3 or 4
• 1:38:45
  customers for you right now that are 6 foot tall that could use
• 1:38:47
  some fucking. And they and those seats, you
• 1:38:50
  were able to use them with like or the seat rails you were able
• 1:38:52
  to use them for like wider seats.
• 1:38:54
  Yeah. Which is also a thing that
• 1:38:56
  doesn't. Really exist.
• 1:38:57
  Yeah. So, and you know, America,
• 1:38:59
  people will be getting big. So it's kind of insane that did
• 1:39:03
  you know that EVO like you know how like EVO 8 high Recaro's
• 1:39:06
  when it came out those. Were too tight.
• 1:39:09
  No, those were actually wider because they were recognizing
• 1:39:14
  that the American market was like, a little larger.
• 1:39:16
  Yeah, because you know how they're not really little?
• 1:39:19
  They're not really like too. What the fuck?
• 1:39:22
  Do you call that shit bolstered? Yeah.
• 1:39:25
  Yeah, shit, it wasn't like that. But then, like they said,
• 1:39:28
  somebody told me that and they're.
• 1:39:29
  Like yeah, anytime you send a a JDM seat you're like damn, this
• 1:39:32
  shit is nice. Yo yeah, like the J, like the
• 1:39:35
  USDM bug eye. Best seats ever Subaru.
• 1:39:39
  Yeah, those seats are nice. But they don't look special.
• 1:39:42
  O4O5 BLOB eyes, STI seats, worst seats they ever put in a car,
• 1:39:45
  horrible. They feel like they feel like
• 1:39:47
  chairs. This is you in the.
• 1:39:49
  Yeah, they feel like chairs. What the fuck is wrong with my
• 1:39:52
  fucking spine right now? You ever have a Subaru?
• 1:39:54
  No. I don't know why I pictured you
• 1:39:56
  owning a Subaru right away. No.
• 1:39:58
  Does he have a vape tattoo or something?
• 1:40:00
  No, no. It's just like, I don't know, it
• 1:40:03
  might have been like, yeah. I kind of I.
• 1:40:04
  Owned one like in high school or something like that.
• 1:40:07
  But yeah, you'd kind of look a little bit like it's a.
• 1:40:09
  What did you own in high school? That 240.
• 1:40:12
  For real? Yeah, that one, that blue 1
• 1:40:14
  still. Yeah, I bought that.
• 1:40:16
  Damn, it's sick. Two weeks after I got my
• 1:40:18
  license. That's I got a you could
• 1:40:19
  appreciate that shit. Jeez, that's cool.
• 1:40:22
  I bought a 78 Pontiac Grand Prix like a couple months before I
• 1:40:28
  got my license. Like it needed a little bit of
• 1:40:30
  work. I got my license, drove it for a
• 1:40:34
  week and it got 7 miles to the gallon.
• 1:40:36
  I was like oh this got to go. Found the 240 on Craigslist and
• 1:40:42
  that was it. I've had it since.
• 1:40:45
  Damn dude, that's a Hector. Car.
• 1:40:47
  It is a Hector car, yeah. And is that a?
• 1:40:49
  Is that technically AG body? It was this terrible brown.
• 1:40:54
  Guess it is AG body right? Yeah, I think so.
• 1:40:57
  I don't even know. Yeah, it was like that.
• 1:40:59
  Like this. Weird.
• 1:41:00
  Bro is that what Hector has? To be honest with you, all these
• 1:41:04
  fucking cars are the same, yeah. Yo they always got that vinyl
• 1:41:08
  shit on their on their. Yeah, it didn't have the vinyl
• 1:41:10
  top. What is up with that vinyl shit?
• 1:41:13
  That's the Willard from Grand Theft Auto, dude.
• 1:41:15
  No, that's the I couldn't afford a convertible like but it's but
• 1:41:19
  it sure looks like. One, it's not that wasn't even
• 1:41:21
  like that. I feel like that was.
• 1:41:22
  Is that not what it's supposed to be?
• 1:41:24
  That was a style thing. I feel like that was.
• 1:41:27
  Yeah, it it looked just like that.
• 1:41:28
  About that shit because I don't get.
• 1:41:29
  Dude, that one's fire. You could fucking put that.
• 1:41:32
  Look at the wheels. Yeah, the wheels are cool.
• 1:41:35
  Just as terrible brown and seven miles to a gallon. 7 miles to a
• 1:41:39
  gallon. Yo, that one's hard.
• 1:41:42
  That red? That could have looked cool.
• 1:41:45
  Yeah, I guess, but I would have just been like, oh, it's a drug
• 1:41:47
  dealer. Cool.
• 1:41:48
  Like I don't really think of anything else when I see that
• 1:41:50
  car for some reason. Like like like that, like in
• 1:41:53
  that color and everything. Like I don't like, I'm not like,
• 1:41:56
  oh, it's a fast. Like I'm not thinking anything
• 1:41:57
  like that. I'm just thinking like, oh, I
• 1:41:59
  guess he sells drugs or. Something.
• 1:42:00
  No, he definitely, he's not fast.
• 1:42:03
  Yeah, I, I mean, Hector's got something like that.
• 1:42:08
  He loves that shit, but I don't know, I wanted to bring up some.
• 1:42:12
  Can you bring up his Instagram? I want to go through some of
• 1:42:15
  these photos real quick before we go to questions.
• 1:42:19
  Shit, I totally forgot about the damn there's.
• 1:42:22
  Like parcel cover. Oh yeah, I can't believe.
• 1:42:24
  He really, I can't believe he really was about to take the
• 1:42:26
  credit for. This.
• 1:42:27
  No, no, I'm just absolutely. No, no, no.
• 1:42:29
  But he didn't tell me. Oh, so you like put it?
• 1:42:32
  OK, so it just like sits there pretty much and gets wedged
• 1:42:35
  between the glass and everything.
• 1:42:36
  Yeah, So that's it's just not search.
• 1:42:40
  It hits the trunk part of the Hatch and I think he added
• 1:42:46
  weather stripping to it. OK.
• 1:42:50
  Oh yeah. We wanted to keep it kind of
• 1:42:51
  OEM. All the hatches with a firewall
• 1:42:55
  like where they cut into the glass, you can't see out the
• 1:42:58
  back. It just I don't know.
• 1:43:00
  It's terrible, yeah. I mean he built a pro car but
• 1:43:03
  not a pro car so we wanted to keep it kind of OEM ish.
• 1:43:09
  Yeah, no, I mean, it came out as good as it could, honestly.
• 1:43:12
  I mean, that's like you're not going to get much better than
• 1:43:14
  that. And I see like the little, is it
• 1:43:16
  like raise in the middle or something?
• 1:43:18
  You see how it's like the? Yeah, speed rolled just to it's
• 1:43:21
  pretty sick. Add a little strength and to
• 1:43:24
  look a little better. Yeah, that's awesome.
• 1:43:27
  That that adds strength like the yeah, the little thing.
• 1:43:31
  Yeah. Add in that, that edge to it
• 1:43:35
  kind of, I mean it still flexes a little bit like that was
• 1:43:38
  really thin aluminum. Dude, that's a nice touch.
• 1:43:41
  Those are the little touches that I feel like people
• 1:43:43
  appreciate a lot more now. Yeah, yeah, it really makes a
• 1:43:46
  difference visually. What else you got, Malcolm?
• 1:43:49
  Let's see. There's Josh's.
• 1:43:52
  Yeah, Josh's car. Yeah.
• 1:43:56
  Yeah, Josh's car came out sick. Big big yo, big trans fucking
• 1:44:02
  what is this? Big.
• 1:44:04
  Social media guy. Right.
• 1:44:05
  What are we doing? Yeah.
• 1:44:07
  What are you talking about? You're good.
• 1:44:08
  At this yeah, I got the gauge pod in there too that.
• 1:44:12
  Was that what? Were you saying it looked like?
• 1:44:15
  What was it? Video?
• 1:44:16
  Game oh Forza yeah yeah yeah I was like I feel like this is
• 1:44:19
  being Forza like the cage would just go.
• 1:44:21
  Through the ultimate thing, ultimate customization.
• 1:44:23
  Yeah, yeah, Cage. All right, go to the next one.
• 1:44:27
  What else they got? Let's see here.
• 1:44:31
  Anything specific in here? That's like, pretty interesting.
• 1:44:34
  That if you go back up that track, Hawk.
• 1:44:38
  OK. So oh, I don't think it's the
• 1:44:42
  first, but it's one of the first with a full cage like that.
• 1:44:48
  So this car comes from Ripituned and they do so it gets the
• 1:44:59
  blower deleted and they get twin turbos.
• 1:45:02
  Cody McManus builds these turbo kits, but this thing is.
• 1:45:06
  From Rowdy Do you remember Rowdy?
• 1:45:08
  Yeah. This thing is crazy.
• 1:45:10
  It did 8.2 and a quarter mile at Texas 2K It's wild.
• 1:45:18
  It's got a parachute on the back, yeah.
• 1:45:20
  Dude, anything with a? So this is a, they have a fuel
• 1:45:24
  cell just like in the trunk. So we had to do a fire
• 1:45:28
  containment between fuel cell and the lines and all that
• 1:45:32
  stuff. So it's just a big aluminum box
• 1:45:36
  that includes everything. OK drive shaft loops.
• 1:45:41
  So we did a front and a rear on this because.
• 1:45:42
  Just for when the drive shaft snaps.
• 1:45:44
  Yeah, yeah. So this car spit a drive shaft
• 1:45:46
  out already. So we did a front and a rear
• 1:45:48
  just. To I was about to ask like what
• 1:45:51
  situation constituted making OK Like dude, that.
• 1:45:58
  I don't know where else is going to.
• 1:45:59
  Go. Yeah, I was going to say, you
• 1:46:00
  probably would have saw the damage under there, right?
• 1:46:02
  It it it was pretty beat up. OK, they banged it out, but I
• 1:46:07
  don't know if the drive shaft itself I see it broke or AU
• 1:46:10
  joint split or what. But yeah, it it spit one out
• 1:46:13
  already. That ain't going nowhere now,
• 1:46:15
  right? Damn, 8 second Jeep Wrangler.
• 1:46:21
  I'm sorry, Cherokee. No, no, it's not.
• 1:46:24
  It's a. But it's basically the same
• 1:46:26
  shit. Though it's a track, it's a
• 1:46:28
  Cherokee. Yeah, I mean, dude, you I don't
• 1:46:30
  know those those shit sounds sick.
• 1:46:32
  That makes. That makes the.
• 1:46:34
  But now the blower's gone on its twin turbo, so.
• 1:46:37
  Yeah, that's right. So now it's fucking.
• 1:46:40
  It's just like people people decide to modify some crazy
• 1:46:43
  vehicles. That's all I know.
• 1:46:44
  Oh, here, here we go. Here we go.
• 1:46:45
  Let's see that. Oh shit, there you go.
• 1:46:48
  How come it's fine in the? Video Yeah, this thing's wild.
• 1:46:52
  So the cage is in this right now, Yeah.
• 1:46:54
  Boom. Look at that cage working.
• 1:46:55
  God damn. Holy shit dude.
• 1:47:00
  Yeah, it's crazy. I would love to like take that
• 1:47:01
  to the grocery. Store 'cause I don't know what.
• 1:47:04
  Else you do with that fucking thing.
• 1:47:05
  But. Sometimes when I'm in the
• 1:47:08
  fucking. Hurt.
• 1:47:09
  That's all you do with that. Yes, her feeling was the Jeep.
• 1:47:13
  I don't know man, I want to do a.
• 1:47:14
  Launch from a drive through so bad dude.
• 1:47:16
  And in my car I'm thinking about it like sometimes I'm like,
• 1:47:19
  thank you so much. Do I do it right now?
• 1:47:23
  Do I do it right now? That one's cool on the left.
• 1:47:25
  OK, some kind of cage. That was a J ZX100 that I did A4
• 1:47:29
  seater cage. Yeah, what?
• 1:47:31
  Is that so? I did floor pans in the back so
• 1:47:34
  that you can mount to two buckets.
• 1:47:40
  I did like rear door bars. The bars off the back of the
• 1:47:45
  main hoop were bent around the like to leave room for the seat.
• 1:47:51
  That thing came out pretty cool. Dude that.
• 1:47:56
  And I mean like this doesn't like when I think of 4 door cars
• 1:48:00
  like this, I'm always like damn rear guy.
• 1:48:02
  The rear seats, the people are just going to slam their face on
• 1:48:04
  the harness bar. But I guess when you you have a
• 1:48:06
  bucket seat mounted and you have a harness on, you can't really
• 1:48:08
  do that anyway. Right.
• 1:48:10
  Like your knees are pretty close, but.
• 1:48:11
  That can't actually going to save the the people in the back
• 1:48:15
  instead of what you're singing where they would just die.
• 1:48:18
  Yeah, I mean, you can't sit in the back seat like if it didn't
• 1:48:21
  have a harness. If you don't have a harness, you
• 1:48:22
  cannot fucking get in this car. Yeah, yeah, 'cause you would
• 1:48:25
  just be, you get into a car accident, the guy would just
• 1:48:26
  bang his head on everything on the way out like, but yeah, you
• 1:48:31
  have. Pro lobsters in the comments.
• 1:48:33
  I said GZX. Damn, this was like his first
• 1:48:35
  stop. Look at the car.
• 1:48:36
  Look. At this damn, yeah, yeah, no, I
• 1:48:38
  mean, shit, that's that's a way to do that, you know?
• 1:48:42
  Oh yeah, stacking downs are. Crazy dude.
• 1:48:47
  I want to learn how to Weld something not not not like this.
• 1:48:51
  You don't got to worry about me stealing the customers right now
• 1:48:54
  like I'm just fucking even just I had this welder.
• 1:48:57
  What about that back bar? Sorry, Carl, what about that
• 1:48:59
  back bar right there? Is that for?
• 1:49:01
  Yeah, that cross bar is that. That's like the rear harness
• 1:49:04
  bar. Oh.
• 1:49:05
  OK, cool. Yeah, Yeah, that makes sense.
• 1:49:11
  Yeah. What the?
• 1:49:11
  Fuck I had a cheap little welder and I swear to God all Tyler my
• 1:49:16
  my old roommate needed was this exhaust tab.
• 1:49:19
  Oh no. Dude, I'm like, yeah, we could.
• 1:49:22
  How fucking hard could that be? Fucking we just blow fucking
• 1:49:27
  dirty holes through this exhaust thing.
• 1:49:31
  It started to hold up towards the end of it was like.
• 1:49:33
  Yeah, it's. Good to know.
• 1:49:35
  Yeah. Stand.
• 1:49:37
  You're going to see the inside of it though.
• 1:49:38
  Shitty. Ass fucking so fucked.
• 1:49:41
  Shitty ass Japanese metal. Damn, dude, yeah, you're
• 1:49:47
  definitely busy, man. Yeah, well, he told me his
• 1:49:50
  schedule. Aren't you booked till like
• 1:49:51
  summer? Yeah, I have people on my
• 1:49:53
  schedule until June. That's right, now.
• 1:49:56
  Insane. And then guess what, in June
• 1:49:58
  you're going to have people on your schedule till September.
• 1:50:01
  Yeah, let's hope so. Yeah, Nah, that's you at least
• 1:50:03
  that's you, man. This is this is an undeniable
• 1:50:05
  guy right here. Look at that.
• 1:50:08
  I need to get. I'm on my way.
• 1:50:11
  Dude Your your craft level is fucking.
• 1:50:14
  Yeah, those fucking those. This this one's cool that that
• 1:50:18
  Cobra. So this car got, I forget what
• 1:50:25
  motor he put in it, but he put like some big displacement motor
• 1:50:28
  and nobody made a set of headers for it.
• 1:50:31
  But the whole body is fiberglass like it's one piece.
• 1:50:34
  So you can't like take Fender off and work around it.
• 1:50:38
  So the the amount of room I had to build these headers was
• 1:50:43
  ridiculous and they came out pretty cool.
• 1:50:46
  But that was cool. That was rough dude.
• 1:50:49
  Yeah, those look sick. Yeah, what?
• 1:50:52
  Yeah, so like that's how I built the whole set of headers.
• 1:50:56
  How are you learning about IS? It isn't like building manifolds
• 1:51:01
  and shit like mad heart of what? There's no way you're telling
• 1:51:04
  you learned that also on your own?
• 1:51:06
  Or did you learn that from somebody as well?
• 1:51:08
  No. What?
• 1:51:11
  Yeah, because what the like the length of them matters and all
• 1:51:13
  that stuff like. Yeah, he was.
• 1:51:17
  He was OK with an uneven length so I kept them pretty similar.
• 1:51:23
  It sounds sick. Yeah.
• 1:51:29
  Yeah, that thing was cool. Oh yeah.
• 1:51:31
  And what does he do with this car?
• 1:51:32
  He doesn't race this thing, right?
• 1:51:34
  It's. Auto cross car?
• 1:51:35
  Yeah, it's an auto cross car. Oh, shit, never mind.
• 1:51:37
  My bad. So I don't remember what the
• 1:51:40
  there's like an airfield in Atlantic City or something.
• 1:51:43
  There you go. Yeah.
• 1:51:44
  I've seen that car before I think really or it didn't look
• 1:51:48
  like that, but I've seen that kind of car down there.
• 1:51:50
  Maybe it wasn't the same color. Yo that that's a cool ass field.
• 1:51:55
  I want to have a drift event there.
• 1:51:57
  Dude I. Heard of that field before?
• 1:51:59
  You talked to Vader Field? Yeah.
• 1:52:02
  I think you brought that shit up, Carl, just so you know.
• 1:52:05
  Master of Bader. I posted a photo of your car on
• 1:52:07
  Instagram and my phone's blowing up right now.
• 1:52:09
  The master of Baderfield. Dude, stop.
• 1:52:12
  I know. I'm just letting you know.
• 1:52:13
  I know the level of my IT. Looks like you're undeniable.
• 1:52:16
  I'm just saying because this fucking shit is.
• 1:52:18
  I got to make it better. But anyway, the fucking that
• 1:52:21
  Baderfield, I feel you'd be the perfect place.
• 1:52:24
  Yeah, or drift event. It's just got a sick backdrop.
• 1:52:27
  Really dope. Are we we got some questions,
• 1:52:31
  Let me see. We got to get you got Google
• 1:52:36
  reviews up and stuff. Dude.
• 1:52:38
  Apparently my buddy who owns APDR company said that that it's
• 1:52:42
  like one of the hardest things. Really.
• 1:52:43
  Yeah, To like get good. Like what is it?
• 1:52:45
  Like to just have reviews bro, I'll write.
• 1:52:48
  You a? Yeah, we got you.
• 1:52:49
  Right now we're using for. Google reviews, dude.
• 1:52:53
  Yeah, Google. The thing with Google reviews
• 1:52:54
  is, well, I don't want to put all your business out there, but
• 1:52:57
  like, I think you need an address.
• 1:53:00
  Oh. Right.
• 1:53:01
  And then it's like, that's your fucking house.
• 1:53:02
  So it's like, how do you feel about that?
• 1:53:04
  Like that? It is what it is, yeah.
• 1:53:06
  People are coming by either way. Yeah, you just get a gun and
• 1:53:09
  it'll be all right. Yeah, right.
• 1:53:11
  OK, let's see here. Oh, OK.
• 1:53:15
  Some of these I can't ask. Why?
• 1:53:18
  Why? Why?
• 1:53:19
  Why? Because they're saying things I
• 1:53:20
  can't say. They're your friends, I'm
• 1:53:23
  assuming. Will you be reviving S13 and
• 1:53:28
  will it be done before Frankie's car?
• 1:53:29
  That's see that's a good question all.
• 1:53:31
  Right. Let's hope so.
• 1:53:33
  If you if you've got a problem. What does it mean if you finish
• 1:53:35
  this? Shell, before I put my car back
• 1:53:37
  together I should sell it. Yeah, honestly.
• 1:53:39
  How bad? How?
• 1:53:40
  Bad are, it's just the rear end, right?
• 1:53:42
  Yeah, like I, I crunched the rear corner.
• 1:53:45
  So I did, I replaced the basically the quarter panel.
• 1:53:50
  I'm doing fuel hard lines and stuff like that.
• 1:53:55
  So honestly it doesn't need that much.
• 1:54:00
  I got to finish up some of the fuel lines and I got to, you
• 1:54:07
  know, get E85 when? Was the last time you?
• 1:54:10
  When was the last time you looked at this thing?
• 1:54:13
  It's been undercover for a minute dude.
• 1:54:15
  I I rolled it out of the shop because I needed space and I
• 1:54:18
  haven't touched it in a while. But it's got an SR20 in it and
• 1:54:21
  the shit looks. Like hopefully, hopefully this
• 1:54:23
  no, like I it, I always tend to snowball with that.
• 1:54:27
  Like it needs something small and I'm like, well, I'm in
• 1:54:29
  there. No, no, because then you get
• 1:54:31
  this. Yeah, my motor blew, Yeah.
• 1:54:33
  Yeah. Then you get this.
• 1:54:34
  That's what I'm saying, yeah. Just like a.
• 1:54:37
  He'd be sick. To have.
• 1:54:38
  No, I don't. Think he's as bad as me as.
• 1:54:39
  Many people as we can, like to just be drifting again this
• 1:54:42
  summer and driving around and shit.
• 1:54:43
  Dude, this summer's about to be. Sick.
• 1:54:45
  We'll see. I'd.
• 1:54:48
  I don't know if I want to put it out there cuz I'm gonna look
• 1:54:50
  stupid if I miss it, but I'd. Really like to do it, trust me,
• 1:54:52
  I've done it every year I. I'd really like to get back to
• 1:54:54
  East Coast Bash, so if I could have, if I could have a done,
• 1:54:57
  Yeah, if I can feel the same way.
• 1:54:59
  Driving. Come on.
• 1:55:00
  Yeah, we got. And looking decent by the end of
• 1:55:03
  May, I'd be happy. I would be sick.
• 1:55:04
  So how about just running and shit?
• 1:55:06
  Like easy peasy. Like pop then guess what?
• 1:55:09
  Then it's kind of. Funk and use.
• 1:55:11
  The ball for real. Yeah, right.
• 1:55:12
  If I hear it start, it's gonna go.
• 1:55:14
  It's up. It's up.
• 1:55:16
  I agree. I can't say anything but I agree
• 1:55:21
  and I hope for my sake. You'll get there soon, buddy,
• 1:55:24
  You'll get. There.
• 1:55:27
  You'll get there soon. Bro I used.
• 1:55:28
  Little buddy. Frankie every fucking week,
• 1:55:30
  dude. I we started in a whole ass
• 1:55:32
  drift team because I'm waiting for Frankie bro.
• 1:55:37
  I mean. I appreciate Carl, I appreciate
• 1:55:39
  him bugging me too, so I can't. Dude, it's not me anymore.
• 1:55:43
  Now you have it's everyone. Now you have the Internet.
• 1:55:45
  Yeah, I know the Internet and then, but, but everyone, there's
• 1:55:48
  some, there's some. Helpful ones hopefully.
• 1:55:51
  There's some haters out there too saying they're.
• 1:55:54
  Like, oh, it's on the rotisserie.
• 1:55:55
  Just do the whole car. I'm like, no dude, like Brendan.
• 1:55:59
  Brendan was like yo, just repaint the whole car.
• 1:56:00
  I'm like, no, I don't want to. I just got to finish the front
• 1:56:04
  and that's it. They're like just do the whole
• 1:56:06
  rear end of the car, just do undercoat everything is.
• 1:56:09
  That not what you're doing. I'm not.
• 1:56:10
  I'm just putting it on them. Why is it on one of them?
• 1:56:13
  I was, I was on my back. I was on my back the other night
• 1:56:16
  fucking grinding shit. And I'm like, don't I have a
• 1:56:20
  fucking rotisserie in the back? No.
• 1:56:22
  Oh my. God, that's why.
• 1:56:23
  That's literally why. Stop this from happening.
• 1:56:25
  Bro and then we just threw it on.
• 1:56:27
  It went on in a week, so it's not even that bad.
• 1:56:29
  Actually, it was like 3 days. But all right, next question.
• 1:56:33
  Jesus. Some actually some good
• 1:56:34
  questions in here. Would you rather have your own
• 1:56:37
  programmable mandrill Bender or only be able to do pie cuts?
• 1:56:43
  Oof. I guess that's like A1 or the
• 1:56:46
  other type question or I don't know, answer it however you
• 1:56:49
  want. Is that a?
• 1:56:49
  Tool of the trade. Programmable.
• 1:56:52
  I like Pie cuts 30. They do.
• 1:56:53
  They take a lot of time, but I like pie cuts.
• 1:56:56
  They come out sweet. I do like the way like a nice
• 1:57:01
  bed tube in the engine Bay where you're like damn we'll fucking
• 1:57:03
  titanium in that bed. I feel like aluminum always
• 1:57:06
  looks kind of shitty, like the welds on aluminum, right?
• 1:57:09
  Yeah, like I honestly, I started out like when I was doing
• 1:57:14
  exhausts, like in the early years, I started out doing pie
• 1:57:18
  cuts. So I was like, oh, using bent
• 1:57:21
  pieces sounds like it's going to be tough.
• 1:57:24
  Like where do you cut it right and all.
• 1:57:26
  So I started out using pie cuts so I got a soft spot for him.
• 1:57:31
  Just takes you back home, yeah. Yeah, I, I feel like I don't
• 1:57:35
  know. Every time someone does, like
• 1:57:37
  I'm like, oh, I need this welded and they welded.
• 1:57:39
  I'm like, why does the aluminum Weld always look so fucking fat?
• 1:57:42
  And like is there any a way to make that look good that I just
• 1:57:44
  don't know. Of no, it's just the way it
• 1:57:46
  comes out. OK, that's what I that's what I
• 1:57:49
  figured, but. Frankie was about to crash the
• 1:57:52
  fuck out. Fucking welds.
• 1:57:54
  Fuck. No, because it it really like, I
• 1:57:56
  don't know, titanium looks fucking amazing.
• 1:57:58
  But yeah, it's just always aluminum.
• 1:58:01
  That's what I'm talking about, where it's like the pie cuts
• 1:58:03
  with titanium. Yeah, titanium.
• 1:58:05
  You ever seen like someone pie cut like an intercooler pipe or
• 1:58:08
  there's probably a car in the shop right now that has it, But
• 1:58:12
  you know when they pie cut that it's like it kind of just looks
• 1:58:14
  like a bunch of fucking Weld like.
• 1:58:15
  Dude the the intercooler when it's like just the the circular
• 1:58:20
  looking welds like just where they need to be, that's it is.
• 1:58:23
  Good, yeah, opinion on a pillar, Gussets on cages.
• 1:58:27
  This is a fucking good question. Seems like they kind of went out
• 1:58:31
  of fashion question mark. They definitely went out of
• 1:58:33
  fashion I I just recently like it.
• 1:58:39
  Took some playing with but pretty much all of my cages now
• 1:58:44
  have. They get an extra bend in the A
• 1:58:46
  pillar so it tucks into the car nicer and I've been welding them
• 1:58:53
  directly to the A pillars. I think it comes out way cooler.
• 1:58:55
  Yeah dude, good idea. I I agree with that though.
• 1:58:57
  Yeah, the the gussets. Yeah.
• 1:59:00
  The gussets were cool for a while, but it just it blocks
• 1:59:04
  your view. I never liked that shit.
• 1:59:07
  It's so it pushes the cage further.
• 1:59:09
  In that shot, dude. That was cool.
• 1:59:11
  Man, yeah, that's cool from a get.
• 1:59:13
  I mean, my car's got them. Yeah, but you love that cage.
• 1:59:19
  It's it's not getting cut out again, if that's what you're.
• 1:59:22
  No, no, I'm just asking you if you love it.
• 1:59:23
  I'm just asking you if you love it.
• 1:59:25
  Yeah. I thought it was cool.
• 1:59:26
  No, I I like my cage. I didn't really look like I I, I
• 1:59:30
  prepped everything like I, I stripped all the tubes down and
• 1:59:33
  then I clear coated it after I. Oh, that's.
• 1:59:35
  Cool, so it's staying. Yeah, the the, that's cool.
• 1:59:39
  Do you ever see when the gussets are big, like IS3 hundreds?
• 1:59:43
  I feel like they have this like when you get a cage for it, that
• 1:59:46
  the hoop is like further back and there's this big plate.
• 1:59:50
  Yeah, probably. They people used to put these
• 1:59:52
  big gussets in nose and I'm like God damn, there's a little cup
• 1:59:55
  holder you got there. That's where the Nexus bottle
• 1:59:59
  goes. No like.
• 2:00:01
  Yeah, I don't know, I and then like people, people would like
• 2:00:05
  design their cage around the gussets.
• 2:00:07
  Like yo I need gussets bro. And they put stars.
• 2:00:09
  Mad gussets. Mad Stars.
• 2:00:11
  Oh yeah, the stars, Yeah. Stars in there.
• 2:00:14
  Twin turbo setup? What?
• 2:00:17
  Twin turbo set up for? Possible?
• 2:00:19
  Twin turbo set up possible for KA24?
• 2:00:21
  That's a better way to read that.
• 2:00:24
  What does that mean? Possible.
• 2:00:25
  Anything's possible, I mean. You thought this was like an
• 2:00:28
  inside? Tool.
• 2:00:28
  I know. I thought it was like cooking.
• 2:00:30
  It's. Like no, I mean that sounds.
• 2:00:33
  Sick I I always want to do a twin turbo on Sr. that.
• 2:00:35
  Would be pretty sweet. Yeah, 2 little turbo.
• 2:00:38
  Bro they got to be fucking tiny. Yeah, I know, but. 2 for two
• 2:00:42
  cylinders. Look up twin turbo SR20 real
• 2:00:44
  quick man please. Is something going to come up?
• 2:00:47
  It's out there, yeah. There's 1 and I I don't know
• 2:00:50
  what kind of turbos they were. Could you make something?
• 2:00:52
  They got to be like 20, five 30s or something, something.
• 2:00:55
  Images. There it is.
• 2:00:58
  Would you be able to make like a manifold?
• 2:01:00
  Think they're gritty? Turbo do that?
• 2:01:02
  Yeah. It's like a TDL 6.
• 2:01:05
  That's pretty sick, honestly. Yo.
• 2:01:07
  Yeah, that's awesome. Those aluminum beads are pretty
• 2:01:11
  good. Yeah, but it's like, now imagine
• 2:01:14
  that was pie cut with like a a billion of those.
• 2:01:17
  Yeah. But yeah, you're right, those
• 2:01:18
  don't actually look that. Bad a Tomei fuel pressure
• 2:01:20
  regulator. That's what I got sold here at
• 2:01:23
  Fashion Motor. Club.
• 2:01:24
  It's actually a SARD one, but I think it's the same one.
• 2:01:26
  All right. It looks exactly the same.
• 2:01:28
  Yeah, that's literally Yeah. But I know it's a SARD because
• 2:01:30
  of the red sticker, but I think it's the exact same one.
• 2:01:32
  That probably makes that one hell of a noise.
• 2:01:35
  Dude, that's. Yeah, I love how they did all of
• 2:01:39
  this custom fab where he's got two turbos, everything's custom,
• 2:01:42
  and then he's got that 90° little line coming off 2 hoses
• 2:01:46
  on the valve cover. Whoa.
• 2:01:48
  He couldn't just make that that's Japanese for you.
• 2:01:54
  That's how it always is. There'll be some crazy thing and
• 2:01:58
  then everything else is just like, why would you do that?
• 2:02:02
  At least that's how I see every Japanese car.
• 2:02:06
  But yeah. Just never meet your heroes.
• 2:02:11
  Fuck fuck fuck Mary, kill stick, Tig or Mig.
• 2:02:15
  Who are those? Who are those?
• 2:02:17
  He said. Oh, the welding.
• 2:02:20
  Welding. That's funny.
• 2:02:22
  He said. Who are those?
• 2:02:26
  Oh, that's tough. OK.
• 2:02:29
  Kill stick. OK, thank you.
• 2:02:31
  I think that's. What I.
• 2:02:32
  Yeah, I was like, Oh yeah. Is.
• 2:02:34
  It just the one thing with the button that's.
• 2:02:36
  That's. What's the other?
• 2:02:41
  Marry Meg because it's consistent.
• 2:02:44
  Fuck take because it's fun. OK, that's that makes sense.
• 2:02:47
  Yeah. Yeah, that makes sense.
• 2:02:49
  Dude, that's got crazy. But logic, yeah, it's like the
• 2:02:55
  most sensible. Yeah, no, it makes sense though.
• 2:02:58
  Whoever came up with that question is pretty.
• 2:02:59
  Good Meg is the normal one. Like that's the most common
• 2:03:02
  welding you're using. Yeah, Meg is the one you were
• 2:03:04
  blowing through your buddies exhaust with.
• 2:03:06
  Dude, no. I.
• 2:03:07
  Think it was the first one, I think it was just a stick.
• 2:03:09
  Stick is even crazier though, right?
• 2:03:10
  What is? It's literally just.
• 2:03:11
  One thing you just, there's no adjustments.
• 2:03:14
  Yeah, you just put the little rod into it and.
• 2:03:16
  Yeah, that's it. It's like a car battery.
• 2:03:18
  That shit was horrible. Or no, maybe it's flux?
• 2:03:23
  I think it was probably flux. Did it have a trigger?
• 2:03:25
  Yeah, yeah, it was make all. Right.
• 2:03:28
  It said the line through it, right?
• 2:03:29
  Yeah, yeah. I never seen someone stick.
• 2:03:32
  Well, thank God I can say that when the.
• 2:03:33
  Batteries on my Facebook reels I.
• 2:03:35
  Yeah, like that. What?
• 2:03:37
  The battery. Dude, they.
• 2:03:40
  It's kind of sick that people can do that, but I don't know.
• 2:03:43
  It's not going to come out nice. Stick well, do for a little bit
• 2:03:45
  like on some construction equipment and it I'm not a fan.
• 2:03:50
  It sucks. Yeah.
• 2:03:51
  Isn't that kind of just like you just fucking tap it and just see
• 2:03:55
  what happens? Like, is there, Is there an art?
• 2:03:57
  Is that like Tom does? I'm pretty sure.
• 2:03:59
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's got to be some sort of.
• 2:04:03
  But are you? You're holding the whatever
• 2:04:06
  flux. I don't know what the fuck you
• 2:04:07
  call. It, yes, you basically have two
• 2:04:09
  jumper cables, like the one, the one goes to the metal that
• 2:04:12
  you're welding to and the other one holds your It's just a rod
• 2:04:19
  that you melt instead of yeah, instead of like a MIG gun
• 2:04:24
  feeding the wire through, you just have a stick you just melt
• 2:04:27
  it in. And and you're completing the
• 2:04:29
  circuit because it's. Exactly.
• 2:04:31
  Yeah, you get through this, this foot of stick and then you got
• 2:04:34
  to replace it. Oh, there's.
• 2:04:36
  Tom, right there. Oh, OK.
• 2:04:39
  I see. So you're literally just putting
• 2:04:41
  a battery to to this piece of metal?
• 2:04:45
  Yeah. And then you're putting a piece
• 2:04:46
  of metal on it. I'm lost.
• 2:04:49
  Oh, no. OK, You're you're 10.
• 2:04:50
  I see What's going on here. OK, I see one side is on that,
• 2:04:53
  one side's on the stick, You're pushing it to that and boom.
• 2:04:56
  I think I got a better that's crazy doing that versus what I
• 2:04:59
  was using at HARP the the fucking Harbor Freight one that
• 2:05:01
  I was using, I'm telling. You but so the only difference
• 2:05:03
  is you don't. You don't have any control over
• 2:05:05
  anything with this. All you have is how fast you can
• 2:05:07
  move it. You can still like control the.
• 2:05:10
  Oh, the. Heat and everything.
• 2:05:12
  Oh OK, I stand corrected. Huh.
• 2:05:18
  Are there people that actually enjoy stick welding?
• 2:05:21
  Yeah, I'm sure if you ask Tom, he'll tell you he enjoys it, I'm
• 2:05:24
  sure. OK, Oh stick, I believe that.
• 2:05:28
  I'm not going to ask Tom about stick welding now that I know.
• 2:05:31
  Trust me, a lot of those Front Street cars were repaired with
• 2:05:33
  stick welding from Tom. So good guy.
• 2:05:36
  Yeah, better drift scene. West Coast or east?
• 2:05:38
  Coast. East Coast.
• 2:05:41
  All right. Got the drift horse Steve Mile,
• 2:05:44
  though, that's kind of sick. Yeah, you like that?
• 2:05:47
  West Coast tracks are cool OK, but the drift scene I'd say East
• 2:05:50
  Coast. Yeah.
• 2:05:51
  So how do you? Yeah, you like the tracks out
• 2:05:53
  there? Though Oh yeah, yeah, we did.
• 2:05:55
  We went to Horse Steve Mile 2-3 times and that was awesome.
• 2:06:00
  Like the elevation changes there.
• 2:06:01
  Crazy. Dude on the.
• 2:06:02
  Camera looks crazy. Yeah, no person.
• 2:06:05
  The camera doesn't even do it justice.
• 2:06:08
  Like it's, it's like NASCAR bank level damn elevation change.
• 2:06:13
  And then Grange. Grange was an experience, but it
• 2:06:18
  was cool. We went to Grange before, yeah.
• 2:06:20
  Oh, you did Super D? Right.
• 2:06:21
  I did Super D but we also went like a couple years ago.
• 2:06:24
  The whole time Frankie's like. Who's watching the track?
• 2:06:27
  Who's Who's Watching? There's just there's you just do
• 2:06:31
  whatever you want. Yeah, that's how you crash.
• 2:06:34
  And then apparently the owner comes out and freaks out.
• 2:06:36
  Oh. OK, so he.
• 2:06:37
  Has to do with the wall. Yeah, you're beat.
• 2:06:39
  Yeah, he's just sleeping somewhere until someone really
• 2:06:41
  fucks up and then he's like what the fuck are you doing?
• 2:06:45
  Yeah, Didn't you see the flags? I'm just sorry there's no flags
• 2:06:49
  here. We don't even know when to
• 2:06:49
  start. Yeah, I don't know.
• 2:06:51
  It it was fun track though and. Then they landed a helicopter.
• 2:06:54
  In there, Yeah, they oh dude, we were there and a helicopter just
• 2:06:56
  landed because they were evac ING someone out because someone
• 2:06:59
  broke their neck or some crazy. Shit, not as somebody.
• 2:07:02
  Oh, OK. Biking or whatever.
• 2:07:04
  Oh, yeah, It's just in the middle of the desert.
• 2:07:06
  Yeah. Like they were just people
• 2:07:08
  riding up dirt bikes and everything, just like, standing
• 2:07:10
  at the wall. Yeah, you should probably move.
• 2:07:12
  Yeah. Dude there.
• 2:07:13
  Was. What did we take?
• 2:07:14
  What year did you go? It was right before I moved
• 2:07:17
  back, so it was probably. 1918 OK.
• 2:07:19
  No, no, moved back here. So it was probably like 20.
• 2:07:23
  I guess it was 23. OK, so that was after they
• 2:07:25
  changed everything, right? Then they changed some stuff,
• 2:07:27
  they made the track wider or something.
• 2:07:29
  They put a little apron. Yeah, that apron.
• 2:07:31
  Changed a lot. Yeah.
• 2:07:34
  Because that track was fucking skinny as hell.
• 2:07:36
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 2:07:37
  But I like that track. It was fun.
• 2:07:40
  We had a little CRV, forgot what the name of the CRV was.
• 2:07:44
  Fuck. It was his rental car that he
• 2:07:46
  found. Yeah, it was through Turo I
• 2:07:48
  found like the dumbest car I could find for me and.
• 2:07:50
  Frank, it wasn't even that dumb. It was actually a really nice
• 2:07:52
  Honda CRV. Dude it was like a certified pre
• 2:07:55
  owned like. Probably the nicest.
• 2:07:57
  No, no, no, I asked him. Yeah, it was like a 99.
• 2:08:01
  Yeah, like CRV. A lot of.
• 2:08:03
  To the desert. Just think, is the zinc coating
• 2:08:06
  on all the bolts and everything? Yeah, fucking perfect.
• 2:08:08
  The in and out we had in that car was good.
• 2:08:11
  Well, I'm. Sorry, yeah dude, I'm that would
• 2:08:14
  be so good. But no, we don't need that.
• 2:08:17
  There's a really good question here.
• 2:08:18
  I'm saving for the end. What's something people probably
• 2:08:21
  don't know about you? There's a good one, probably a
• 2:08:24
  lot. Yeah, probably a lot, but let's.
• 2:08:27
  Hear something? But we just saw your whole
• 2:08:30
  family. And.
• 2:08:32
  Now we talked about your career. Yeah, we know a lot about you at
• 2:08:35
  this point. What?
• 2:08:35
  Do you do on like a Sunday? You know what I mean?
• 2:08:39
  Like what does Joe do? And he's just like, I don't have
• 2:08:41
  to wake up at that ass crack of it's not even dawn at that
• 2:08:45
  point. It's like night.
• 2:08:46
  Just chill finally. I get that chill.
• 2:08:51
  I get that. I feel like that happens a lot
• 2:08:55
  more as you get older you. Don't got like hobbies.
• 2:08:58
  No, nothing. This is your hobby.
• 2:08:59
  That's my hobby. Yeah, that's kind of sick.
• 2:09:01
  Fuck. I don't really.
• 2:09:02
  You're living it. Play video games or any of that
• 2:09:05
  kind of stuff. I like a good cigar.
• 2:09:11
  OK, there's something dude. A cigar with fucking just
• 2:09:14
  hanging out on the fucking. You got a patio?
• 2:09:16
  Fire pit. Yeah.
• 2:09:17
  Yep. Oh yeah, That's chilling.
• 2:09:19
  Yeah. Hell yeah.
• 2:09:23
  Joe does really good wheel tubs. Tell him I said thanks.
• 2:09:27
  That was I'm not going. To try.
• 2:09:29
  I haven't done wheel tubs in a minute, Silas.
• 2:09:33
  Yeah, yeah, his car is. He's been building this car for
• 2:09:38
  years now and he'll like get some stuff together and be like,
• 2:09:43
  Nah, I think I want to change something.
• 2:09:45
  He just got it put back together.
• 2:09:47
  It's fucking awesome. You're going to check that out,
• 2:09:49
  Yeah. Why are VSKFS the best wheels
• 2:09:54
  ever made? Is this a Do you have VSK?
• 2:09:58
  FSI don't. OK, so this is.
• 2:09:59
  Just troll. I have Vienna's because VSKFS
• 2:10:02
  are played out. OK, That's probably why, yeah.
• 2:10:06
  I. Was like, yeah, they got to be
• 2:10:07
  shin on them right now. Yeah, courages.
• 2:10:11
  Yeah, Nice. Nice.
• 2:10:12
  Favorite type of fabrication project?
• 2:10:16
  Do you have one? I love doing roll cages.
• 2:10:19
  They they could be a real pain in the ass sometimes, like
• 2:10:21
  especially on a new chassis. But a finished roll cage, like
• 2:10:25
  when it fits right, all the welds look good and everything
• 2:10:28
  it's that's it. Dude, I had no idea.
• 2:10:32
  I think somebody posted a picture, right?
• 2:10:34
  And all the comments on Facebook have to do with the fact that
• 2:10:37
  the cage is like sunken down, like 6 inches.
• 2:10:41
  And then finally somebody's like, they they drop the cage
• 2:10:45
  down. So you can.
• 2:10:47
  Well, yeah, I had no idea. That's why those boxes are down
• 2:10:53
  there, right? The mounts.
• 2:10:53
  Yeah, yeah, you either have to make boxes or you have to drill
• 2:10:56
  through the floor to drop it down or you got to take the roof
• 2:10:59
  off. No idea that that's how that
• 2:11:00
  happened. Yeah, definitely drill through
• 2:11:02
  the floor on my shit. Yeah, I try not to whenever I
• 2:11:05
  can. Fucking.
• 2:11:06
  Beep. I mean, I don't know what
• 2:11:07
  happened on my crazy shit. There's a lot going on under
• 2:11:10
  your car. Yeah.
• 2:11:13
  All right. Last question, guys, This is a
• 2:11:15
  banger of a question. Who would win in a fight?
• 2:11:19
  50 silverback gorillas or 50 lions?
• 2:11:27
  Gorillas got teeth and shit. No, that's got to be a gorilla.
• 2:11:30
  They got teeth. They got teeth.
• 2:11:32
  And they're kind of smarter than a.
• 2:11:33
  Lion. Plus they got way longer arms
• 2:11:34
  than a lion. You ever see the video of this
• 2:11:37
  gorilla where he's just walking around going like.
• 2:11:42
  This Oh, I think I know he's. Yeah, their arms are long, dude.
• 2:11:45
  Like long arms. Malcolm, what's your opinion on
• 2:11:48
  this question? Gorillas are winning.
• 2:11:51
  Wow. Is it just because the brain
• 2:11:53
  power or is it something else? Brain power, the hands and feet,
• 2:11:57
  bigger muscles and they they have sharp teeth too.
• 2:12:00
  I think it's just the intelligence too, dude.
• 2:12:02
  Like I feel like 50 gorillas, they get together, they're going
• 2:12:05
  to go, yo, let's get on top of that thing over there and we are
• 2:12:10
  now going to be able to pick these lions off 1 by 1.
• 2:12:12
  You know what I mean? The the.
• 2:12:13
  I know what you're saying. There's they're closer to us.
• 2:12:16
  But are they actually? Can you look up the brain
• 2:12:18
  capacity of a gorilla? No.
• 2:12:20
  Well, a lion. A lion.
• 2:12:21
  Like what are they doing? It's.
• 2:12:23
  Like no, we all know lions are just cats, so a cat, but a
• 2:12:26
  gorilla like is it is it somewhat close to a human being
• 2:12:29
  as far as it's brain like do you think they can strategize like?
• 2:12:33
  Why wouldn't they? They had to open bananas and
• 2:12:35
  shit. OK, problem solving.
• 2:12:40
  Gorillas, including silverbacks, have been observed.
• 2:12:42
  Figuring out how to unlock gates and solve puzzles.
• 2:12:44
  Yeah, I think. I think you guys.
• 2:12:46
  Are right they're winning they're winning just did pure
• 2:12:48
  intelligence alone they're they can they have the ability to
• 2:12:51
  love bro. Oh, then they're going to lose.
• 2:12:55
  That's. Right there, emotional
• 2:12:57
  intelligence, they're losing. Yeah, that's a weakness for
• 2:12:59
  sure. Those lions are just like, we
• 2:13:01
  need to eat all those, right? Batty ass gorillas just going to
• 2:13:04
  walk out and they're all going to get distracted as fuck.
• 2:13:06
  Every single one. Shit, I'm trying to like imagine
• 2:13:09
  this. You don't have to.
• 2:13:11
  Just 50 lions, 50 gorillas rushing at each other.
• 2:13:18
  What the fuck? Bro Lions can launch.
• 2:13:23
  Bro. Yep, AI says the gorilla has the
• 2:13:26
  advantage on a one-on-one, but a lion could win if it can land a
• 2:13:30
  quick, decisive blow. Fucked up and.
• 2:13:33
  That that's just them telling you so.
• 2:13:35
  They're not. They're covering their bases.
• 2:13:37
  AI. Yeah.
• 2:13:39
  That was the AI version of, but I don't know.
• 2:13:41
  Yeah, look. At Look at the bite.
• 2:13:43
  Look at the bite force of a gorilla. 1300 fucking PSI.
• 2:13:47
  What? The bite force P.
• 2:13:49
  PPP. PSI per square double that of a
• 2:13:53
  lion. A lion is half of that.
• 2:13:57
  Holy shit. See you learn so much shit from
• 2:14:00
  these questions. Dude I did not know it would be
• 2:14:02
  half of that. OK, Malcolm, real quick.
• 2:14:06
  Yo, all lions have are a little speed and sharp nails.
• 2:14:09
  That's about. It if he.
• 2:14:10
  Said if he said tigers I'd be second guessing this right now.
• 2:14:13
  But a lion I just use a lion as like slower look at that tiger
• 2:14:21
  would win against a gorilla according to AI.
• 2:14:23
  Wow. Because.
• 2:14:24
  They're too fast, they're lighter.
• 2:14:27
  Tigers are just heavy. Look up a bite.
• 2:14:31
  String full fight video. They got actual Oh my God,
• 2:14:33
  someone made it. Yo, click that.
• 2:14:37
  Yeah. Wait, is this like a hole like?
• 2:14:45
  Go to the middle a little bit. Let's let's speed it up.
• 2:14:49
  There's no way they're going to just have this on YouTube, are
• 2:14:51
  they? Oh no, it's just a hypothetical.
• 2:14:53
  They got us, they got us all right, Malcolm.
• 2:14:56
  Look at the bite force of A. 78,000.
• 2:14:59
  Nile crocodile. Bro.
• 2:15:01
  Watch this shit. What is that?
• 2:15:03
  Watch this shit, damn. 5000PSI. But with any of those things,
• 2:15:12
  you know, they, they could like crush down real hard, but
• 2:15:15
  opening it is actually very, very hard.
• 2:15:17
  So you ever see when a crocodile person like grabs their mouth
• 2:15:20
  like that? You're safe.
• 2:15:21
  Once that happens, you're good. Because they they're not.
• 2:15:24
  They can't they they. Can't open it like as hard
• 2:15:27
  that's why if you tape it down they they not open it That shit.
• 2:15:31
  I'm on it bro if I see God. We're all saying you could
• 2:15:35
  wrestle a crocodile. Maybe like a baby one like and
• 2:15:39
  all you have to do Dude I seen the videos keep it shut.
• 2:15:44
  They're gonna. You're right.
• 2:15:45
  They're also gonna do this thing where they fuck, they just.
• 2:15:47
  What do they call that? The death role.
• 2:15:49
  Death role? Is it really?
• 2:15:50
  Yeah. Yeah, it is a death role.
• 2:15:53
  Yeah. Dude, animals are cool, man.
• 2:15:57
  Animals are cool. We need to go to a zoo sometime
• 2:15:59
  and then go damn, why are these animals in the zoo?
• 2:16:01
  Oh yeah, that's why I don't go to zoos.
• 2:16:03
  That depresses. Me, I fuck with zoos.
• 2:16:04
  It's literally going to a prison camp.
• 2:16:05
  So I'm just like, but then they'll like validate it.
• 2:16:09
  They'll be like, oh, they're in danger.
• 2:16:11
  They're in danger. It's like, yeah, they're in
• 2:16:12
  danger because you killed all of them and you put the last ones
• 2:16:14
  here. Well, that now they're saving
• 2:16:17
  them, you know? Yeah.
• 2:16:18
  Thanks for coming on the pod. Joe, Yeah, thank you so much for
• 2:16:21
  coming all the way up here because I know the trip, it's
• 2:16:23
  it's a long one. Hell, hopefully it gets you some
• 2:16:26
  business because I'm telling you, it's hard to find somebody
• 2:16:29
  who's like, has that experience, who can like, I don't know.
• 2:16:34
  There's a lot of people. I mean dude, it's just not.
• 2:16:37
  We have not. Action fab, you know what I
• 2:16:39
  mean? Like we have some people that
• 2:16:41
  can fabricate, but not everyone does roll cages.
• 2:16:43
  Like that's a big thing. Roll cages.
• 2:16:46
  I'm here, yeah. Level is like high.
• 2:16:48
  Yeah, roll cages is like, you know, once, once I went down
• 2:16:51
  there, saw your work and everything, I was like, all
• 2:16:53
  right, well, at least we know who's doing cages now.
• 2:16:55
  Like, because for a minute we were like, we don't Yeah,
• 2:16:58
  because we didn't know who was going to do cages.
• 2:17:00
  We were like kind of bugging out.
• 2:17:01
  But now that we got you, it's it's.
• 2:17:02
  Definitely also. Cool to know that you're a
• 2:17:04
  certified Cage Kits installer. Yeah, that's good to know.
• 2:17:07
  And for those of you in the area that have cage kits or anything
• 2:17:09
  like that, yeah, like customcagekits.com actually.
• 2:17:12
  I had one question about that that I forgot to ask you.
• 2:17:15
  Would you would you say it's way cheaper for them to buy that
• 2:17:19
  cage kit and have you installed the new making one?
• 2:17:21
  Like what's the price difference?
• 2:17:23
  So no cage kits. The price of the cage, I mean,
• 2:17:31
  you got to figure in like they have to be able to produce these
• 2:17:35
  and the machinery that it takes to be able to just pump out
• 2:17:40
  these cages bent, notched, ready to go.
• 2:17:42
  It's pricey. And then they send out a like a
• 2:17:48
  price sheet for installs. So it does get expensive to do
• 2:17:53
  the cage kits. OK.
• 2:17:56
  But they're good quality. Like if that's the route you
• 2:17:58
  want to go, then you know you're not gonna end up with a bad
• 2:18:00
  cage, that's for sure. So you said they send out a
• 2:18:03
  price. Does that mean they are making
• 2:18:05
  the prices you have to charge? Yes cage kits, they give you a
• 2:18:09
  minimum price for install depending on area.
• 2:18:13
  Nice welded or tig welded and stuff like that.
• 2:18:17
  That's interesting. I guess that's one way of trying
• 2:18:19
  to keep the quality of their installers to a certain level.
• 2:18:21
  Yeah, exactly. Like they send out a test kit,
• 2:18:24
  you have to like Weld out this template.
• 2:18:27
  And even test you. Wow.
• 2:18:30
  Fucking crazy. This company's kind of.
• 2:18:32
  Fine, Yeah, honestly, that's and.
• 2:18:33
  Maybe having Black Friday sales dude.
• 2:18:35
  Yeah, yeah. Like I knew a couple.
• 2:18:38
  People who bought. Cages during Black Friday, dude.
• 2:18:41
  Like it was. But how much are they like
• 2:18:43
  about? Fuck do I know, but it's
• 2:18:44
  definitely if you're running a sale on anything like that, Like
• 2:18:47
  that's a sale is a sale, dude. Like yeah, how many people are
• 2:18:51
  running sales on fucking? Because cages are not cheap
• 2:18:53
  right now. No, that's all I'm saying, yeah.
• 2:18:55
  The tariffs, the tariffs, the appeal of a cage kit is so that
• 2:18:59
  you could do it yourself. But.
• 2:19:01
  But if you can't, then. If you can't, yeah, we're here.
• 2:19:05
  Malcolm, can you give us a Trump tariff real quick?
• 2:19:07
  Just one. The tariffs.
• 2:19:11
  OK. Thank you.
• 2:19:11
  All right. Thank you guys so much for
• 2:19:12
  tuning in. Thank you Joe for showing up.
• 2:19:14
  Thank you. Fucking keep action fabbing.
• 2:19:17
  Also, why is it called ACTION FAB?
• 2:19:21
  Real quick, my dad ran tow trucks in Brooklyn in like the
• 2:19:26
  80s and it was called Action. So action's been like a family
• 2:19:29
  name for a long time. Oh, that's sick.
• 2:19:32
  So. Fire.
• 2:19:33
  Yeah, what the fuck? That's that's even cooler.
• 2:19:36
  Carl, before we leave, can you tell everyone about your gloves?
• 2:19:40
  They're. All I knew they were gone.
• 2:19:41
  Fuck. Yeah, that shit was cool.
• 2:19:44
  Before we ended the last podcast, Carl, I was like, fuck
• 2:19:46
  my gloves. No, but they're already gone.
• 2:19:48
  I ran out of those. I think I sold mine to the last
• 2:19:50
  pair today. Are you going to do another
• 2:19:52
  batch? Maybe.
• 2:19:53
  Maybe in blue. I had a lot of people asking me
• 2:19:54
  for blue. Someone asked me something about
• 2:19:56
  them. They said they were like,
• 2:19:59
  they're like, oh, they're probably too big though, because
• 2:20:01
  they're like work gloves. And I was like, no, they're not.
• 2:20:03
  No, I have different. I had different sizing but I had
• 2:20:05
  like small, medium. But they, I think they meant the
• 2:20:07
  thickness because they see the yellow and they're like, oh,
• 2:20:09
  it's a work glove. And I'm like, no, no, no,
• 2:20:10
  they're not. They're pretty thin.
• 2:20:12
  Like they're thin. They're usable.
• 2:20:13
  Yeah. It's a good middle ground.
• 2:20:14
  Good for whatever. Yeah, whatever you want to do on
• 2:20:17
  them, honestly. Well, thank you so much, Joe.
• 2:20:21
  I don't know if we have anything else.
• 2:20:23
  But you got anything, Malcolm? Yeah.
• 2:20:25
  What's going on in your life? Nothing.
• 2:20:27
  We'll be at LZ this. Weekend.
• 2:20:28
  Oh, really? Yeah, that's right.
• 2:20:29
  We will be at LZ Fest. Unveiling delivery, yeah.
• 2:20:34
  And then you can also critique my paint because it's going to
• 2:20:36
  be out in the open. I think it's going to be sunny
• 2:20:39
  too. Perfect.
• 2:20:40
  That's like, that's like the worst time.
• 2:20:42
  If you have bad pain, it's like. Fucking Carl.
• 2:20:45
  That's like the worst time, no? I worked hard on it, but we
• 2:20:49
  could talk about it. Thank you guys so much for
• 2:20:51
  listening. I don't even know what episode
• 2:20:53
  we're on now at this point. It might be one I forget too.
• 2:20:56
  Is it 1? 50.
• 2:20:57
  No. No, I don't know dude.
• 2:20:59
  All right, we're close it. Might be 150 all right.
• 2:21:02
  See you guys. Thank you, Joe.
• 2:21:25
  Well, Carl almost fought me, but that was a good podcast.
• 2:21:31
  We had to deescalate that. I, I, I think it was him that
• 2:21:34
  deescalated it, right? It wasn't me.
• 2:21:37
  I. Think it was you?
• 2:21:38
  Yeah. You literally said, well, Carl's
• 2:21:40
  going to fight me or it's Carl's getting mad, so I'm going to
• 2:21:42
  stop. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 2:21:43
  I wasn't even doing anything. But that's how Carl is.
• 2:21:45
  He's has a lot of pride in his his stuff.
• 2:21:48
  So I mean as you should, yeah, but.
• 2:21:51
  Yeah, I mean, the car looks cool, so yeah.
• 2:21:54
  I don't know why you got. Mad.
• 2:21:55
  I don't know why you got mad either.
• 2:21:56
  I kept complimenting the car, but yeah, All right.
• 2:22:00
  Well, if you guys want to see the car and us, you'll make sure
• 2:22:03
  to come out to Adam L ZS event this weekend at Raceway Park.
• 2:22:06
  LZ World Tour 3 point O. Yeah, it's probably going to be
• 2:22:10
  pretty crazy. Yeah, it's going to be a whole
• 2:22:12
  bunch of influencer car creators there.
• 2:22:16
  Yeah, and it looks like they're doing some wild stuff with the
• 2:22:19
  seating arrangement at the road course.
• 2:22:23
  And plus this is the first one at the road course so this is
• 2:22:26
  going to be the best 1 yet. 100%, yeah.
• 2:22:28
  Because the road course is way more fun than the FT track.
• 2:22:32
  And surprisingly, the layout is just your regular front front
• 2:22:37
  track club loose layout. Good, that's the best layout
• 2:22:40
  there is. Yeah, other than maybe XTC.
• 2:22:42
  No tree turn, no tree turn. It ends right before tree turn.
• 2:22:47
  Right at the end of the ball. How?
• 2:22:48
  Do they do that? I don't know, I don't know.
• 2:22:51
  It's kind of interesting. Well, we'll see what happens.
• 2:22:53
  I'm sure it's going to be fun either way.
• 2:22:55
  Yeah. But also thank you Joe Rocurso
• 2:22:57
  of Action Fab for coming on the podcast.
• 2:22:59
  Yeah, that was a long drive for him.
• 2:23:00
  So thanks for hanging out, chatting with us, you know,
• 2:23:03
  sharing your little journey through fabrication and hobbies.
• 2:23:07
  Yeah, thanks for all the info on roll cages too, because I I got
• 2:23:11
  to ask some questions I didn't know the answers to.
• 2:23:13
  Yeah, Frankie. 'S going to be the first to run
• 2:23:14
  an aluminum roll cage. It's lightweight.
• 2:23:19
  Yeah, for real. You got to check those chromoly
• 2:23:21
  pipes out at his place. Dude, this shit is so great.
• 2:23:24
  It's like the length of this table.
• 2:23:25
  You just pick it up in one hand. And it's a strongest deal.
• 2:23:28
  Yeah. It's not stronger, I think.
• 2:23:30
  Yeah, but it's just a smaller diameter or the wall thickness
• 2:23:34
  is thinner, I think because it's stronger, something like that.
• 2:23:38
  But yeah, it's expensive. So if you make a fuck, if you
• 2:23:42
  fuck a bend up on that, you just ruined you probably just that's
• 2:23:45
  probably the end of the case. You.
• 2:23:46
  Got to figure out how to recycle that little.
• 2:23:49
  Yeah, you kind of can't sometimes.
• 2:23:51
  Like you're just screwed. Like maybe you can cut it into a
• 2:23:54
  door bar but. Yeah, but I'm like, you're not
• 2:23:55
  throwing that out. You're going to keep it on the
• 2:23:57
  side. Sometimes you got to throw it
• 2:23:58
  out. No way.
• 2:23:59
  Yeah, dude, you make a, you bend a hoop wrong, like a main hoop,
• 2:24:03
  you got like 4 bends in it and they're all wrong.
• 2:24:06
  And it's like, well, I can't cut this out, what am I going to use
• 2:24:08
  this for? You know?
• 2:24:10
  Yeah. He definitely has a whole bin
• 2:24:13
  of. He's got a whole wall of metal.
• 2:24:15
  I'm saying like of fucked up pieces that he maybe he could
• 2:24:18
  use in the future. Yeah, probably.
• 2:24:20
  They're probably behind the garage.
• 2:24:22
  Yeah. No, but once you get good at
• 2:24:24
  bending, you don't, you don't really do that anymore.
• 2:24:27
  It's kind of like a first, first try type thing, yeah.
• 2:24:32
  What else you got going on, Frank?
• 2:24:32
  Can you pause that right there, Eddie?
• 2:24:37
