Episode Overview

This episode brings in frequent guest—and friend of the show—Jacob Sherbrooke for a classic Cboys hangout. The crew kicks things off with viral content talk, drifts into wild racing stories, the launch of a new CboysTV scholarship, and their ever-expanding behind-the-scenes world: van jumps, hot dog business ideas, CboysTV lore, and future plans including a new drift track. The talk is as much about their love of wild antics, cars and community, as it is about giving back and inspiring their fans.

[D]

Yeah, it's pretty cool.

[C]

I'm not, I'm not hating on his content at all. Like, this is a trend, but like, I don't really understand the whole, like owning bikes and then making reels but, like not ever riding the bikes. Like, he obviously rides, but he only posts videos of him like doing like skits and they're all very funny.

[E]

Just with a dirt bike, but.

[C]

Yeah, just like with the dirt bike and it's just like live memes. I don't know, Mike.

[D]

You got plenty of bikes that you don't ride. Yeah.

[E]

So many memes. Yeah.

[C]

Yeah, I guess. But like, I'm not just posting videos like next to them, but like, like, again, they're funny.

[A]

Can't have a tripod filming you when you're riding.

[B]

True.

[A]

I mean, you could actually, but maybe not as easy.

[E]

Well, I was not expecting it to take that direction.

[D]

Kind of came in with some heat there.

[A]

That was.

[D]

I was surprised too.

[E]

I thought what you were going to bring up is that we're also going slightly viral on TikTok or We. We started our first trend.

[D]

Oh.

[E]

On Tick Tock. It has to do with you two, actually.

[A]

Ben and I.

[D]

Yes.

[A]

Oh, kids are shaving their heads.

[E]

Kids are shaving their heads.

[A]

Actually.

[C]

Yeah, we got some emails too that were just like, yo, I love Grandparon.

[A]

I want to support.

[C]

I'm gonna shave my head.

[A]

No way.

[C]

Send some pics.

[E]

This is. This is the first guy. Good old Chris.

[D]

Let's go, Chris.

[E]

He did it.

[A]

Nice.

[D]

Did it for Grandpa Chris.

[A]

Like that.

[E]

And then we got this guy here.

[A]

Amazing. Amazing. Wow.

[D]

This guy's. This guy's that big of a fan that he's gonna shave his head. But he spelled sea boys wrong.

[C]

That was just a type.

[E]

Well, he was just excited.

[A]

Dude, this is. Dude, we need to send this to grandpa Ron. He's gonna absolutely love that. Thank you, guys. That is really nice.

[E]

So then this kid.

[A]

No way.

[C]

He looks tough.

[D]

He's.

[E]

He did like a trend that he was like, if I get a hundred likes, I'll shave my head.

[A]

It's at 69.

[D]

See you guys, in a little bit.

[C]

The updates.

[A]

Damn, dude, you look good too. What the frick, dude? Kids with shaved heads look great.

[E]

I know, dude. And then there's another one too that says, put a flag next to your name for Grandpa Ron and a ton of people.

[C]

Wow.

[E]

So grandpa is really.

[D]

Dude, that's crazy.

[A]

We need to send them those. That's pretty cool.

[D]

That is really cool. The last video has a couple thousand comments on it. Let's just say 3,000 comments on it. And we saw my grandpa Ron the next day after, like, the video went live, and there was already, like 2500 comments on it. And he said he had read every single one of them. I love that dude because he was asking me and C.J. about it. He was like, hey, did you see that comment about that guy from Pennsylvania that said he was willing to drive up here and shave his head? And I was like, ah, I think I missed that one, grandpa. And he's like, oh, okay, what about this one? And I was like, wow, you've been reading all the comments and he's like, all 2500 of them.

[E]

Yeah, yeah, you remember the number too, dude. Does he have, does he do it on his phone or does he, like, sit down at the computer?

[A]

I think he sits down, like, on the video and is just, you know, just scrolls through. Yeah. Refreshing. It probably helps with the views, but. Yeah, no, I, I, I read the comments. I just, I, it takes me sometimes, you know, a day or two to get around on, you know, we're doing other things.

[D]

But when it's a good video, it's like my favorite part. After you finish up the video and then you get to, like, hyped up from, like, all the people, like, everyone, like, loving it.

[A]

I agree. Yeah, we're just so, we appreciate you guys commenting.

[E]

There was more comments than I thought about me not shaving my head.

[A]

It was pretty bogus. Ryan, those guys don't even know grandparon. But you were in the same room and decided to opt out.

[E]

Well, I, I didn't just opt out. I just feel like your friend group can only have so many bald guys.

[A]

That's true.

[E]

And I, I didn't want to, like, steal any thunder from, like, what, you two as family members. That's very true. It wasn't that I was trying to be selfish, but also.

[A]

Ryan, that's a great answer, and I'm going to let you slide now. That's, you're, you're in the clear.

[D]

I, I, honestly, Ryan, I, I didn't entirely blame you.

[E]

I Got a messed up head?

[D]

No, just. Yeah, dude, Ryan changes and we're like, oh, your head is so big, dude. Yeah, you don't really realize like how big someone's head is until they're bald. Like that's all you have to like, look at. Like, Ryan has like such an ins.

[C]

Big head.

[D]

Like he can't wear hats. His head is so big. But like, you don't really notice he's got it all covered up with hair.

[B]

And I am looking right now though.

[E]

Quit looking at my head, dude.

[D]

It's a heavy head. Yeah, but no, I, I didn't, I didn't fully blame me either, but yeah, people were cooking it in the comments.

[B]

Yeah, and grand.

[D]

Love that too. He thought that was funny. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he was.

[A]

Boy, they're pretty fired up about Ryan.

[D]

Yeah, he brought it up like four times. You come here to get your head shaved yet, Ryan?

[B]

I think Grandpa Ron has almost turned into like America's grandpa. Everyone just loves him. Like, like I've only met him twice and I feel like I know the guy first name basis and I'd go over to his house and just like have a beer with him every Saturday if I could.

[D]

You and grandparon are like very similar in that way though, of like, you've met someone once and you're already like their best friend. Like some people just have that, that characteristic about them where like you, you don't even really know that much, but maybe you have like one like special moment shared together and then it's like you're like always dapping each other. You're like doing that. And so yeah, I, I think you guys, you guys would definitely be, be good homies, but yeah, America's grandpa. Yeah, it is cool. Yeah, it's been fun to like be able to like showcase Grandpa Ron with the world because me and cj, you know, obviously we grew up with him and we always thought he was like so funny and like so special. Like, you know, the things that he would say and do. But you know, it's, it's like everyone, I have the funniest uncle or I have the funniest grandpa, but we've been able to like capture it in a way and share, you know, the essence of grandparon with the world. And it seems like everyone agrees and you know, can rally behind them.

[A]

Even funnier in person though.

[D]

Yeah, because like, yeah, dude, especially like in his older age, like the last couple years, like he's gotten more savage.

[E]

It seems to happen.

[D]

And dude, it's like half the shit he says, like, we can't. Like, we have to just cut out the video and, like, have our editor sign an NDA to our new filmer when. When he introduced himself on the video. But, like, dude, you can't repeat what. What he's saying. Like, he's in a different world. I love Rod. He's so savage.

[B]

Honestly. Kind of some legendary family members, though. Like, Uncle Buck. I call him my Uncle Buck, too. And, like, you kind of got all the bases covered between everybody in this room.

[A]

He's just known as Grandparon. Like, people come up to him in public, they go, grandpa Ron, can we get a picture?

[B]

Exactly.

[E]

America's grandpa dude.

[A]

Exactly.

[D]

Yeah. Imagine getting Uncle Buck and Grandpa Ron together.

[C]

Does it happen?

[D]

No. Oh, no. They're on two separate sides of the family.

[C]

Figure he might as well.

[D]

Yeah. My Grandpa Ron is my mom's stepdad, technically. And then my Uncle Buck is my dad's brother. So, like, two. Two opposite ends. Two incredibly interesting characters in themselves, and somehow I'm in the middle.

[B]

You want the universe to explode? Make that happen. Yeah.

[D]

Yeah. No, it's so funny. Some people you make a character, and some people are natural born characters. Yeah.

[E]

Jacob, you finally did it.

[B]

I did it, dude.

[E]

You want to race?

[D]

Yeah. It was honestly, like, yeah, congrats on that.

[B]

The most fun thing in the whole world. Yeah.

[E]

So Jake went down to the indie 800 or something like that one of Cletus's race, and he raced in the van pre and somehow won the damn thing. Dude.

[B]

On foot, baby. It couldn't have been a better ending.

[D]

Yeah. So explain this to me. I just saw the one clip of you running across the finish line, Ricky Bobby style. Yeah. With the Ricky Bobby song in the back.

[B]

So basically, like the Van Prix, there's like, you guys are there. You saw there's a jump basically that you have to hit one time. It's like the joker lane.

[D]

Right.

[B]

So it kind of gives everybody a fair play to make passes and free.

[D]

And you're in a minivan.

[A]

Yeah. Yeah.

[B]

They're like the ultimate race car.

[C]

Can you hit the jump more than one?

[B]

Yeah, you can hit it as many times you want. Some people are just hitting it to hit it, like.

[D]

But it's like one and done usually. Yeah.

[B]

One and done.

[E]

If you hit it big enough.

[B]

If you hit it big enough. Like, there was a guy on the first lap, Jim, he just sent it clear across the other side and his whole front of his van ripped off. So he's done.

[D]

So you have a video of you Hitting it.

[B]

Yeah, I actually do. The thing about the Van Prix is, like. So everyone's obviously there for, like, the Crown Vic thing. So the Van Bree, is kind of more the show, but it's still a race, you know, like, deep down inside.

[D]

Right. For me, it's race. Yeah.

[A]

People are loving it. Yeah.

[B]

Oh, yeah. People were loving it. And so we have, like, headphones in, and they're like, you know, like, hey, you guys better be putting on a show. People I love.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

So I'm just like, well, I'm just gonna keep freaking booting this ramp then, I guess.

[A]

I mean.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

So did the other guy with me, the guy Robbie, he was just. I think he hit the ramp.

[D]

Oh, Robbie Layton.

[F]

Yeah.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

No, he's.

[D]

He's crazy, dude. He does demo derbies, so.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

Yeah, we met him in Utah, and he was showing me videos of demo derbies, and I was like, there's something wrong with you.

[B]

Yeah. Like, every single person in the vampire, the only reason they're there, one bolt is just slightly shorted out, and we all get it.

[A]

They scour the nation and. And everyone is pre selected.

[C]

Yeah.

[E]

Yeah.

[D]

So Jim York, he was the guy that was driving the limo, and he.

[A]

Drove it through the rv, clean through Utah.

[D]

Incredible. I've always said, that guy's got a screw loose. Right. So I saw a post that he made when he was, like, announcing, like, the lineup of everyone that was in this Grand Prix or Van Prix, Sorry. And. Yeah, and he said, jake Sherbrooke, arguably crazier than I am. And I was like, that's a hell of a compliment. Yeah, this is. That's quite a stick statement, because that guy is crazy.

[A]

So, yeah, congratulations.

[B]

Yeah, I wasn't expecting.

[C]

So did everybody's van break?

[B]

Yeah, everybody. Everybody's van broke down. Like, I was. Every lap, there'd be like, oh, there's another van. Another lap. Oh, there's another van. And there was 10 vans, 10 laps. And by the last two laps, it was just me and Robbie. And I'm like, dude, this is great.

[D]

Like, I could possibly do this, dude.

[B]

I'm. I'm. I'm, like, doing this thing, and they're like, make sure you put on a show, like, on the last corner. So we both just side by side and we come around the last corner and they both die. And I'm, like, looking around, I'm like, what are the odds no one's going to finish? And I'm like, oh, my gosh.

[D]

I'm going to run through.

[B]

Run, bro. And I just full sprinted. And was he running?

[D]

Oh, yeah.

[B]

Afterwards, like, he saw me, like, sprint by him, and I just, I'm trying to get out. Seat belt still on.

[D]

Oh, that's funny. Ryan, you should have. You should have ran when your car died. On the 99th lap, Ryan gets hit, though.

[A]

Hit at, like, 70 miles per hour by.

[D]

On a racetrack crown.

[A]

So my question for you, Jake, or let's, let's watch this video first.

[D]

Yeah, Yeah.

[B]

I actually might only have, like, a video of a video, but I gotta.

[D]

Show you, like, any good jump. Yeah, bro, there's a million cameras going.

[B]

I know. I, I, but this is, this is basically the jump, like, right here. Jesus, dude. Yeah, I was loving this, dude. It was.

[C]

30.

[D]

That was a big set.

[A]

Just a flat. How fast are you hitting these at? I don't know.

[B]

I was just holding it. Holding it. Wicked, dude.

[A]

You.

[D]

So my people watching might not think that that's a big send, but, like, as somebody who has even driven around, like, a rally track, like, on our, on our track.

[E]

With a landing.

[D]

Yeah, with a landing. Getting, like, three feet off the air in any vehicle is insanely aggressive. Like, like, you got to keep in mind these things have no suspension. Pretty much. They have, like, this much suspension, but it gets used up in, like, the, you know, first three inches, and then you're coming down another two and a half feet.

[B]

You were in the air for so long. Like, I have. I have. The GoPro video is so funny. Like, I can literally count. And, like, everything in the van starts slowly coming up. Also, when I was in the air, there was someone next to me. His mirror comes, like, through my window, and it's just floating in slow motion. And when I land, like, my head stealing my wheel, or my hands get ripped off the wheel, and the steering wheel gets, like, bent upside down. And the best part, after I get back on the straightaway, I just, like, casually fix my mirror. And I just think, in the whole.

[D]

World, Jake, you kind of built for that, though.

[B]

Yeah, that was like, I feel like.

[D]

You'Ve been training for that, dude.

[B]

I honestly thought about. I'm like, I'm pretty comfy. Like, everyone's like, you nervous about the ramp? And I was just like, I don't think so. And then, like, the first time I hit hurt pretty bad.

[A]

So that was my question. It has, like, does it hurt?

[B]

Not like I should say it hurts, but, like, you're in it to win it, but the next day Hurts.

[D]

It hurts.

[B]

Yeah. Like, the adrenaline is so high. You're just like, yeah, I'm doing this.

[A]

I mean, there's no way that doesn't hurt.

[E]

Do you have harnesses or are you just like standard seat belt?

[B]

No, it's just seat belt. Pull out the windows and that's it. There's no. No roll cage, no nothing.

[A]

Such an aggressive landing, man.

[B]

Yeah. No fire suits. It's.

[D]

Oh my God. Yes. Yes. Oh my.

[C]

That was magical.

[D]

What a moment, dude.

[E]

Yeah. Oh my God.

[B]

Dude, it was like. It was electric.

[C]

Dude.

[B]

You couldn't have planned it any better after that. Like, I had so many people reach out. Like, I think you're maybe the only person to actually pull off the real life Ricky Bobby.

[D]

That's hilarious. Well, Jake, you kind of got a little bit of a history of jumping vans. Back in the day, Micah had this blue van.

[C]

Blue van.

[D]

What kind of van was that? GMC Chevy. Like, like 80s model though, right? We actually used Mike's van quite a bit. We had a couch in the back. And then when we had to use it for work, we would, you know, pull the couch out, put merch in there.

[A]

Dirt bikes.

[D]

Dirt bikes, yeah. Snowmobiles. Yeah. So we, we went out and we bought this Maverick, like a Can Am Maverick. And we for some reason didn't feel comfortable jumping the Maverick because the Maverick.

[E]

Was all the money the company had. So.

[A]

Yeah, we can't really know.

[D]

We. Well, because we wanted to jump the Maverick over the van. Yeah. And we were like, well, we can't afford to break the Maverick. So what if we jumped the van over the Maverick? Just like that was our reasoning behind it.

[A]

And the van took it so well. Like when you watch the GoPro, it was so smooth. I remember.

[C]

Well, that was a great job because.

[A]

When you have a landing that that helps.

[C]

It was a proper car jump. Like, like lift off to.

[A]

That really was. Whatever happened, that jump, it just got plowed. Think it's still there?

[E]

I think it is just deteriorated.

[F]

Overgrown.

[D]

Yeah, we hooked.

[B]

I just love how we. There was like $25,000 machine, perfect suspension. We're like, can not make this eight.

[A]

Foot jump jump compared to today's standards.

[C]

We definitely knew it could make it, but like, sad to say, we were all. Yeah, not confident enough.

[D]

Like with our luck though, it would have just endoed.

[A]

We had a loan on the thing. I think we own it. We had a loan on it.

[D]

Yeah. It was like, you can't.

[A]

Yeah, we can't total this out. Yeah.

[D]

Not that it would have, but on that.

[C]

That was like our first and only jump for the longest time.

[D]

What do we do with that van? Oh, we chopped the roof off of it and we made it.

[A]

That was fun.

[C]

We could pull up a few different pictures of it. I have some like pictures of like in the sun rise or sunset or something. And it was all foggy and you're in the back wearing like a head bear costume.

[E]

We had the van so we had to use it. It was.

[A]

I'm surprised you don't have another. I keep talking about he might get one, but I thought about it, but.

[C]

Like, I just don't have a use for it anymore besides that. It's cool.

[D]

Yeah, I just. We had the no can do van for a while.

[E]

Yeah, we. I just had a snap memory come up and you had gotten the van when we were living in the college house. And it was you coming out of the van in the morning looking groggy and hungover as fuck. Go. Mike spent the first night in the van. He got locked out of the house.

[C]

Yeah, that's right.

[D]

That's right. There was like this couch in it.

[A]

Mike peed on.

[D]

Yeah, but. Oh, that was the first couch, actually.

[C]

I had a nice couch in the back.

[D]

Yeah. Okay, so.

[A]

And then.

[D]

So Mike was at this party and he peed on this couch.

[B]

That's how he obtained.

[D]

And the family made him buy the couch. Ended up in the van.

[A]

But it was like a nice couch couch. It was worth more than the van.

[C]

It was.

[D]

Yeah, it was.

[C]

It was worth more than the van. That's crazy.

[D]

Yeah, it was.

[C]

It was actually a nice couch. It was clean as best as I could clean it, I guess. And then Dave wanted to do some like trick or treating. He wasn't doing it. He wanted to post up like between the roadhouse.

[B]

Yeah, yeah.

[D]

Jake's dad and he like, no one trick or treats around here.

[C]

I'm just gonna like post up at the end of this road and then anyone driving by can like come get candy. I don't know.

[A]

I don't know.

[B]

Honestly. It was like.

[D]

It was fun.

[B]

No, it was fun. But the thought process behind a guy dressed up as the Easter bunny on Halloween with a giant light plant just sitting on a random couch on a gravel road.

[D]

Yeah, like, how many people are going to stop?

[B]

Come on.

[D]

Yeah, I'm going to stop and see if grown ass man, huge dude dressed.

[B]

Up as a rat.

[D]

So he asked Mike if he could.

[C]

Use his couch and then he like, didn't feel like he could get it into his truck that night. So he just left it and someone stole it.

[D]

Dude, somebody in the area has got to have that couch though. And they probably think that it's like a nice couch, which it is a nice couch. But little do they know how it was, how it was ended up in the position that it was.

[A]

Yeah, they're probably sitting on it right now.

[D]

Yeah. Watching this. It's like a black flip felt couch. You would have. You would have found it on a gravel road in silver legs 2019. Yeah, yeah.

[B]

On number four.

[C]

So random.

[A]

Bye.

[C]

Between the roadhouse and the cormorant store.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

If you're sitting on that couch, just know Mike wants it back.

[E]

You stole that.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

That couch is hot.

[E]

Yeah.

[C]

Ah, screwed. I gotta get another one.

[B]

Get it, Mike.

[C]

No, I would love to have a motovan, but like we. We travel as a pack, so really makes sense.

[D]

Yeah, Mike gets a motovan for when he's going to the track down 100ft down the road.

[C]

He's so funny. Oh, so you put the retractable bed in it?

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

You know, Want to have some hot dogs or something?

[D]

Yeah, you should get a motovan, Mike. And then have like a little pop out hot dog cooker. Yeah, you can turn it.

[C]

Food truck.

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

Money Mike's hot dogs. I would actually get a hot dog from something called money Mike. What the.

[D]

Yeah, Mike, you should start selling hot dogs. Like cormorant days.

[B]

Gold flaked hot dogs.

[D]

Money Mike. Yeah, you could do gold flakes and it would just be like. It could just be like spray painted tin foil.

[E]

Yeah, I was just say instead of gold flakes, you just take like a candy wrapper that's like gold and just.

[B]

I'd pay 20 bucks to buy a hot dog from that.

[A]

If you just had a dope logo, I'd just go and buy one. Like you had like money and then like hot dogs and like, it'd just be funny and then just be like, you know, a guy named Mike.

[B]

You don't even know the logo. Could be like a guy with money guns, but he's shooting hot dogs out.

[D]

Of rain and money on them. Kimbo hot dog shooters.

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

If you're ever wondering, like, how do these guys come up with all these things to do? Very similar to this little brainstorming.

[D]

Honestly, this will probably end up doing this like we will end up doing.

[E]

I just was on Facebook Marketplace and I saw a hot dog maker for sale. It's going to be like literally right here.

[D]

Like, can we get that?

[A]

I don't know if they make those, but I'm sure we could make one T shirt cannon.

[B]

Philip.

[A]

Mike's out on like a hot summer day on the boat shooting hot dogs in the legit two way.

[D]

10 racks for a hot dog stand.

[E]

What's a nice one? It's a. It's a full blown business.

[D]

You can put a couch in there, you can spend the night.

[B]

Mike, buy that, bro.

[E]

Put it out of the trash.

[B]

You gotta buy that, Mike.

[D]

Buy it, Mike. Send that to Mike. Send that to Mike. Okay.

[C]

I could live in there. So like, yeah, definitely worth it.

[A]

The only problem is Mike could be eating his own supply.

[D]

On your own supply, buddy. I'm pretty sure that's. Michael is bankrupt cuz he eats all his hot dogs. Can't help himself, he goes broke in three days.

[B]

Mike just gains an absurd amount of weight where it's like, all right, we.

[D]

Gotta help him out, bro. How many hot dogs have you ate in the last 48 hours, Mike? And he's like, well, half of them were. Half of them were hamburgers.

[B]

No, they weren't.

[D]

There's an amber bun.

[B]

You're lying to yourself, Mike.

[D]

Okay, well, if you count the hamburgers then. 573. Holy.

[C]

I'm not Joey Chestnut.

[D]

I was gonna say like 50.

[B]

I envisioned Mike turning into that guy playing video games in his basement on South Park. Just super.

[C]

That's Cartman.

[D]

That guy.

[F]

Whatever.

[D]

Yeah, man, bash him. This dude loves hot dogs, bro.

[C]

I've just learned to just go with it because, like, I seriously know.

[D]

What are you talking about?

[C]

Don't eat that many hot dogs.

[B]

You just had one before we came on here.

[D]

That was a brat. Oh my God.

[C]

That was a br.

[B]

See what we deal with.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, I'm going to get you on that technical.

[A]

That's a cousin to a. To a hot dog.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

[F]

They're both meat filled, circular.

[E]

Oh, God.

[C]

Ken.

[B]

Out of nowhere.

[D]

Yeah, true. When did you get here? Wait, we've had this conversation. How many times have we talked about a hot dog?

[A]

It's going to happen.

[E]

Keep bringing about.

[C]

This podcast revolves around hot dogs, Tesla watches, bitcoin. Bitcoin? Yeah. I don't know.

[D]

I feel like we haven't talked about those as much as we've talked about.

[C]

You guys used to bore the crap out of me with you.

[D]

Finally something Mike's passionate about.

[A]

We didn't talk about crypto in a long time.

[F]

Mike is a Johnsonville aficionado, bro.

[D]

How do we get Mike sponsored by Johnsonville Brock. I love that.

[B]

Yeah, that.

[C]

There's like a reel going around that was like, tag your dream sponsor. And I tagged Johnsonville Meat. Everyone's like, what? And then I'm pretty sure it says that on my Tick Tock bio too. Sponsors are like DeWalt and Johnsonville brats.

[E]

Speaking of sponsors, we're sponsoring a couple kids to go through college. Mike is wearing the sweatshirt.

[A]

Oh, yeah.

[B]

Dude, that's so awesome. I saw that when I was gone. That's freaking cool, you guys.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

How'd it happen or what?

[A]

We got a scholarship. I think it's launched now, but it's called just the Seaboys TV Life Wide Open scholarship. And it's for like auto tech, Auto body, Auto body and then power sports.

[E]

Okay.

[A]

So basically, like, you know, we donated a certain amount of money.

[C]

Was there someone that was able to match it?

[A]

Yeah, basically the combined sum was like $60,000. That's for donation? Yeah. So that should help get. I'd imagine a few kids all the way through their schooling. And then, you know, we just like the Tech Tech schools because you go there, you learn an actual skill, and then you have a job already waiting for you when you get out and you're already contributing to the community. Right. You know, and there's nothing wrong with going to a four year school, whatever. But we just felt like that, that resonated a little better with us.

[D]

So, yeah, it aligns with kind of what we stand for and the things that we do.

[A]

And who knows, maybe we'll. We'll hire some of these. These kids as they learn more and more.

[E]

Because I did kind of feel like a college, like, baseball scout walking around, I was like, looking, I'm like, all right, who's got potential here?

[A]

Yeah, dude, it. Dude, all those kids, though, like, they're literally kids. I know it made me feel old, but, dude, it turned into like, kind of like a little bit of a riot.

[D]

Yeah, at one point we were like.

[A]

We were like, like, we're just kind of surrounded and we're signing stuff and taking pictures. Next thing you know, all these kids are doing burnouts. And yeah, the president's there and he's like looking around. And then they're like, next kid who does a burnout. Not why, whatever. And now our kid starts doing a burnout. And then the freaking cops come.

[D]

They're sitting there, like, trying to stand in there. It started out. It started out like, let's go.

[A]

I'm pretty sure.

[D]

And then it ended with us being like, man, who the hell are the Sea Boys?

[A]

I told the guy, I was like.

[D]

We didn't tell him do that.

[A]

And it was Funny, though, because I didn't realize the president and, like, all those people were there, and then these kids are doing a burnout. I'm kind of, you know, watching whatever, and then I see the cops come. I go, oh, the cops are here. And they totally heard me.

[B]

And.

[D]

But yeah, I mean, we didn't tell him to do it, but it was.

[A]

It was a really good time, honestly. So, dude, I would recommend. And yes, yes, it was a cool school. It was a nice campus, too.

[C]

Well, they named, like, one of their classrooms after us.

[D]

Yeah, I have my own Depends restroom.

[A]

Who you're asking? It could be a classroom for Ken, but so in the. In the plumbing department, they have no can do. Men's restroom.

[D]

Restroom. That's awesome. That was part of the deal if.

[A]

We were gonna donate.

[B]

Properly.

[A]

Named after Ken? Well, yeah.

[D]

I mean, if you're a race car driver, you should know how to work on your engine. Right?

[B]

Right.

[D]

If you're Ken, you should know how to work on a toilet.

[A]

Can't just be blowing them out and not fixing them.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

You know, you break it, you fix it.

[D]

So anyway, Ken's looking for an intern, actually.

[A]

He just hires someone.

[B]

There's a guy building just full mod toilets down.

[D]

This thing will flush anything.

[A]

It flushes hard and fast.

[D]

I'm pretty sure the intern in the description is just like, you will just follow behind me and clean up my mess.

[C]

Have you seen that? Like, it was, like, a meme that America will use anything to measure except for whatever. There's.

[E]

Like, this.

[A]

This toilet will flush 12 pool balls.

[C]

That. That seems good, right?

[E]

Then the other one's like, a bucket.

[B]

Full of golf balls.

[D]

How many golf balls will mine flush?

[E]

Yeah.

[C]

Has anyone. Have any of you guys ever broken a toilet from, like, broken it too.

[D]

Big or do we know anyone.

[A]

Crack the por.

[D]

How many this week?

[F]

I got the plumber on call. He stops by once a week.

[A]

He's just on, like, a subscription service. He knows after Taco Tuesday to just.

[D]

Show up to me.

[C]

A toilet is a maintenance item, something you need to replace on the weekly.

[D]

Dude, speaking of maintenance items, we. We got done at ndscs, and we were driving home, and Ryan was driving the Hoonicorn. Dalton, our filmers, is riding with me, and we're behind him. And Dalton goes, does that rear wheel look like it's, like, shaking a little bit to you? And I'm like, yeah, it might have been doing that before, though. And he was like, it looks pretty bad. So I call Ryan and I go, hey, bro, you're like, rear wheel is shaking pretty bad right now. You should probably pull over.

[E]

Meanwhile, Evan and I have been in the car the whole time, and this noise has been getting louder. We thought it was, like, some slop in the drivetrain maybe from all the drifting and ripping the brake and stuff like that. We're like, oh, I guess that's just what it is. And so, as Ben calls me, I look out the passenger window or the driver's side window and see two lug nuts flying down the highway next to the car. And we just go, oh, dude.

[D]

So we. We pull up next to him, and we're, like, looking right next to him at the wheel, and we're like, dude, you're missing all of your lug nuts. There was no lug nuts left in it, and the only thing that was left in it was the actual lug itself with a lug nut in it. Like, it broke the lug off.

[E]

Yeah.

[D]

So it had worked all of them out. And it was just sitting on probably. You got a video of it. It's sitting on, like, like, two thread. Two threads, like, around the entire wheel a little bit. Evan was like, it's. So there's no way that it's ever gonna be fixed.

[C]

It's.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

So.

[E]

I don't know.

[D]

It does seem total it out. Dude, it's over.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Dude.

[C]

Dude.

[E]

Dude. I think if that wheel had come off. Oh, you.

[D]

So bad.

[E]

I was also doing, like, 65 on a. It would have a county high.

[A]

You could have potentially slid into the ditch. You could have.

[E]

I was concerned.

[A]

But also, just the fact of it dropping would not have been good on the body.

[D]

Well, it was taking out the fender flare, too.

[A]

Fender flare, side shoot.

[D]

The fender flare is like that statue. You can't just order a new fender flare for this thing. Like, everything on the wrap would be messed up.

[A]

Everything.

[D]

It would have been an absolute nightmare.

[A]

So what was the deal? It just wasn't torqued down or what?

[D]

We had taken those wheels off a couple times and just. It just didn't have enough dug a. Dug on the last one. Putting it back on.

[B]

One thing that I have, like, learned is, like, taking wheels on and off. I, like, drive it around and then retorque them, because I've, like, literally had that same thing where it's just, like, wobble. I'm like, dude, can you imagine just flying around a corner and you had, like, a wheel actually fly off?

[A]

Like, yeah, bad news probably suck.

[B]

Speaking of which, me and Ryan just had something kind of similar happen the other day.

[D]

Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. What's up with that?

[B]

I don't know what's been going on, but like there's.

[E]

I have a curse.

[B]

I have this ongoing joke, it's kind of everybody's joke that we're going to roll up to Zorbas. And it was like the first time I was going to drive my car to Zorbas and Ryan was there and.

[D]

You know, big moment, big moment.

[B]

Had to like.

[D]

Which is like our local pizza establishment.

[A]

Jake waits like an extra 10 minutes, lets everyone get their order and get settled down. So he's like, okay, perfect. Everyone should be at their seat.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

Let me just explain this. Okay, so there's like a little outdoor patio, right? So you order your food and you sit and you wait for your food in this outdoor patio, but it's right on the corner. So there's like two roads that come together. It's like the perfect spot to like kind of come hooning in. And everyone on this outdoor patio is sitting there like basically on the road, looking at you. Looking at you, right? And so Jake, for the longest time is like, dude, imagine rolling up to Zorbas in this. And that's what he was saying, everything. When we first got the Mustang, the Hoonicorn, he was like, dude, this could be so sick. To real life, to Zorbas. And then when he did his exhaust on his Mustang, he was like, bro, you gonna hear me rolling up the Zorba. You be so sick. But then when he built his Mustang, he was like, bro, the first time I roll up the Zorba, Zombie come in sliding, like, you guys are gonna be sitting there like, damn, who's this guy?

[B]

So anyway, yeah, anyway, so yeah, that is what happened. So what I do? What do we do? And then there's like the rollout and you gotta, you know, give it a little extra pepper. So Ryan's like kind of waiting there for me to get on it. So I try and like blow eard drums.

[D]

And then all the families eating there, like, you do not need to give it extra pepper, Respectfully, at like 3:30.

[B]

In the afternoon on a Sunday. But anyways, he comes back up to me and there's like a perfect corner that kind of goes towards my house. And then Ryan goes straight. I'm like, oh, I'm going to freaking just yank a handful and slide this thing. My freaking tire literally like folded like a envelope and just came clear off the rim. And I'm like on the drift.

[C]

Around the restaurant?

[B]

No, around the corner.

[D]

That would have been par for the car. Imagine if I was sitting as Zorb, was eating pizza in a. In a Mustang. Started drifting around. I, I would grab everyone. I would say, get inside now. Everyone get inside.

[B]

Oh, gosh.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

No, but it just came off and I honestly thought I like, blew it up because the tire was rubbing on the inside of the wheel well, but it was sending smoke out the hood and a lot of it. And I'm like, oh, man, this thing's bogging, shaking, running. Like I just blew it up. And then I get out and my dad. Tires just off.

[E]

Yeah, it like pulled it off like a, Like a. I don't know, like folded it back inside. It was the weirdest thing.

[B]

It literally did. What, a condom?

[E]

Yeah, it kind of did that.

[C]

Yes. But it's just the way it folded. What are you running? Ling lungs?

[B]

No, I was running. Hand cooks. Don't buy those. Try something different.

[D]

So what it just was. You didn't have enough tire pressure?

[B]

Yeah, it was just low on air.

[A]

Problem.

[E]

Yeah, you came pretty hard.

[D]

It's like the front one too. It must have just rolled over on itself.

[B]

Yeah. But anyways, yeah, tire issues got so.

[A]

Much on that thing, man. Yes, it was right at Zorbas.

[B]

No, no, no.

[C]

So you never got to Zorbas?

[B]

No, I did get to. Oh, this is leaving, leaving, leaving. Yeah, yeah, no, I, I. For a proper roll up. I can't have the half gang there. I need everybody.

[D]

Oh, you have to do, like, be a full house scout.

[B]

Roll by. Like, people just outside. Almost like, full crowd.

[D]

Well, that's how it was on. On opening night. It opened up on, like the first and we were there for Mike's girlfriend or Ryan's sister, whichever one her birthday. And like, the whole gang was sitting there. And I'm looking around like, where's Jake? And I'm like, I'm like, oh, my God. This is the moment. This is the moment.

[A]

Here he comes.

[D]

So I'm like, sending Jake videos, like, all right, Jake, we're ready for you. We're ready for you.

[A]

Jake's like, sitting around the corner, like, shining it up.

[D]

He pulled over in a quick detail.

[C]

Yeah, dude.

[D]

He's like, he's like, is everyone there? And I'm like, yeah. But Mark just got up and ran to the bathroom and he's like, all right, text me when he's back.

[B]

Gotta have one inside guy.

[C]

I love that.

[B]

That would have been the perfect moment, but I was like, halfway to Indiana and I was actually pretty upset. I'm like, I should have left Tomorrow.

[E]

So before we get too far off of NDSCs, we were, like, taking a bunch of pictures in that. In that mob. We'd all kind of split up, and we were talking to everybody else just individually. And so this. This guy came up to me and he was like, yo, can we get a selfie? I was like, yeah, of course. So he pulls out his phone, and he was in Snapchat. And there he was in his. In his chat, like, thing, you know, like the screen like this where you can see.

[D]

Yeah.

[E]

And he just instinctively tapped the top one, which was a snap from his girlfriend, and it was a newt.

[C]

Oh.

[E]

So he just snaps and goes. And, like, we both kind of, like, look at it. Oh.

[B]

And then he clicks it.

[D]

Yeah.

[E]

I was like, whoa.

[B]

Never had that happen.

[E]

Like, of all the things people can't find the camera, all that. I was like, whoa.

[D]

Yeah. Yeah, that's him.

[E]

He just looked at me real wide. I was like, nice, dude.

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

I was like, take the picture. And then we took the picture. And he's like, nice to meet you.

[D]

And then he walked away. Wow.

[E]

Flustered. Yeah, I, like, I feel kind of bad. I didn't look at it. We didn't look at it very long.

[D]

But, yeah, it was.

[E]

That wasn't.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

So it was, like, long enough, though, where, like, he. He was realizing what was going on. And you. He realized that you were also. Yeah, because, like, we're both looking at.

[E]

The phone, like, he's about to go like this. It was like, boom. And then I was like, oh, my.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Wow.

[E]

It was. It was a fairly chaotic moment.

[A]

That was crazy. I've never had that happen. I don't even heard of that happening. There's this one kid there that asked for a picture, and we, like, take a picture or whatever. And then he. He, like, goes, yo, I gotta show you this. Finds this old picture from, like, 20 freaking 17 of me and him, him and I. Like, a picture of us two together. And he's like a little kid because, I mean, in college, you know.

[D]

Yeah. It was Turf Wars.

[A]

Seven or eight years ago. Yeah.

[D]

Yeah. It was at the Turf Wars.

[A]

Now he's so. He was like, 10, and now he's 18. And I was like, wow, this is crazy.

[B]

It's wild when people are like, you remember me? And you're just, like, looking at them. Like, I. I don't even know if I recognize you. And they're like, this is us. And they're like, I know a half your size. I'm like, dude, we've Been doing this for a long time. Yeah.

[D]

We were sitting down, eating lunch, and Dalton, our filmer, was like, yeah. Like when. When you and C.J. were messing with the delivery guy, saying that you were going to give him a chicken instead of the title. And I looked at him like, what?

[B]

What?

[D]

And he's like, yeah, like, when you got your. When you got your Corvette delivered and you walked inside and you said, let's give him a chicken. And I said, he's like, what are you talking about, bro? And I. I actually. I better double check that he's not losing it. But if I. If we did say that I have a video. No memory of that whatsoever. It is wild, like, how often that happens. Yeah. Very often. Somebody comes up and references something, and I'm like, no idea what you're talking.

[B]

About right now, bro. It's crazy what people remember, though, and, like, how specific it is.

[E]

Yeah. It's cool, though, and it's cool for us, too, because, you know, everybody's been around, like, when you're. When you're sitting around in a circle telling stories at the campfire, like, we have recorded memories that you can go back on.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

And, like, be able to see one day when we're ready to do that. But right now, we're just making more.

[B]

Thank you.

[D]

I don't go back and watch those videos.

[C]

Telling stories around the campfire is the best.

[E]

Yeah, dude.

[B]

Actually, to do it, we should go have one right now.

[D]

All right, let's just pick this up tomorrow.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

All right.

[B]

Thanks.

[E]

For the next podcast, we're gonna. I'm gonna get one of those little solo smokeless stoves, and we'll have a campfire right here.

[B]

That would be awesome.

[A]

Oh, the Fire Bond.

[D]

That's a Snoop Dogg one, right?

[E]

Yeah.

[D]

That he got all canceled.

[A]

I'm pretty sure there would still be smoke coming from it.

[C]

Nope.

[A]

You start a fire, and there's not gonna be any smoke.

[D]

Smokeless, dude. Smoke.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

Snoop said, I'm done with the smoke.

[C]

Sydney got one for her birthday, and so I'm excited to try that.

[D]

Oh, Sydney doesn't want the smoke either.

[C]

Put actual wood in there, and it doesn't smoke. I don't know how, but.

[B]

So what do you guys got on the docket? I haven't seen you in a while that you can, like, talk about, I guess.

[A]

I don't know.

[B]

I know you guys always. You got a lot of stuff you can't talk about, but.

[D]

Oh, Jake.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

You'll. You'll think this is pretty cool and be Excited about this? We're gonna do a drift track.

[B]

Are you?

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

You're building the drift track?

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Is that like the auto invite that I'm just gonna show up unannounced and you guys gonna be like, damn, we shouldn't have told them. Yeah.

[D]

We're gonna have to put in a. A fence and a gate.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

Just to keep Jake out.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Mike, you give me my own code. It only works for, like, an hour. It's like one and two o'.

[C]

Clock. I mean, to be fair. Yeah. If we were, like, inside trying to film and you were drifting, it'd be so loud. I don't think you could.

[B]

No, no.

[D]

That'll be sick, though. We're really excited about that.

[B]

I. I am really excited for you. That's sweet. Are you gonna do it at the farm?

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

Excited is an understatement.

[D]

Yeah, we're trying to figure out next level, the layout and everything still, and, you know, what makes sense with, like, the space that we've got and, like, quite frankly, not spend a ton of money on it just because it's, like, very, very expensive.

[E]

Try to figure out which organs we should sell.

[B]

Yeah, I was gonna say you should just make, like, a kidney beans. Then you can do a drag strip.

[D]

We've got a pretty sweet idea, but we want to incorporate, like, the trees into it. Just so, like. Like something that we run into a lot. You know, one corner looks the same as the next, so it's like if. If we're able to have, like, trees incorporated into the track, where it's like, it adds a little bit of background texture. Where it looks one, crazier, two, it's a little bit sketchier. Sketchier, you know, and then. And then everything doesn't look the exact same. So we're trying to do that at the farm.

[B]

Kind of like landmarks, so you can kind of see engagement.

[A]

You could put, like, certain things up. Like. Yeah, you could put, like, obviously the shipping containers with, like, some kind of canopy thing over it. You could do, like, a lion and a lion, you know, like, not like a statue of a lion or like a gorilla or something on, like, one corner. So that way it's like each corner you can tell it's a little different.

[B]

You should get, like, a big water fountain in the middle that's got a giant toilet on top. And it's. Yeah, like, right there.

[D]

Like.

[B]

Awesome land like that. Like cowboy corners.

[D]

Well, that's like, what we got going on at the other track. Like, you know, we obviously have the Hummer up on the pole.

[A]

Yep.

[D]

And then you've got the no can do with the smart car on top of it. And, like, there's like, these little. The water truck.

[A]

And we need some more in there.

[B]

But.

[E]

Yeah, one that hasn't made in video too much, but it's a. It's a personal favorite of mine is Tetanus corner. It's the one where all the scrap metal is on the back side.

[D]

Yeah, that one is just straight up because we were 2 lazy to pick it up.

[B]

This corner right after the whoops.

[E]

If you. If you overshoot the whoops, it's just, like, barrels that are fully, like, shrapneled.

[D]

Yeah. Our limo is still out there. It's kind of turned into, like, a.

[F]

Little bit of, like, a nature sanctuary now.

[D]

Graveyard.

[B]

But, yeah, dude, can you imagine, like, a hundred years from now when we're all gone? They're gonna be like, yeah, that Hummer's still up there. Like, it's gonna be kind of like a staple. Like, it probably won't leave.

[D]

Yeah. We've been talking about maybe taking it down and, like, using it this summer, doing something with it, but it's going to take a bit of a bit of work to get it back up and running, because the last time that we drove it, it was super cracked, and so it would probably sink the next time that we took it out. But then we were like, God, what do you put up there?

[A]

Yeah, you can't just take something down because once you hire the crane guy there, it's like you got him there. So you got to put something. You got to put something else back up there. And it's like, well, what else do we put up there?

[B]

And gonna have to just get something that's iconic.

[E]

Ken's bronco didn't work.

[C]

No, we just, like, panic and put Ken's Bronco.

[A]

Dude, that.

[D]

That was the innocent. Like, how sketchy that was. Yeah, dude, it was so much on the line for just a joke, like, just. Just for us to laugh and get a good reaction out of Ken.

[B]

Risk and reward were literally up here side by side. Like, it could have been.

[A]

So if it would have fallen, it would have been really funny. Like, Like, I mean, it would have been funny for the video.

[D]

We'd still be laughing.

[F]

The most expensive video but we've ever done.

[A]

Yeah, I mean, we. Yeah, for sure. It'd be the quickest way we've blown that amount of money, for sure. Yeah, that's just done.

[B]

That is literally.

[D]

It would be.

[A]

It would.

[D]

It would have been worth forever in.

[A]

The history book hall of fame.

[D]

Dumb, idiotic decisions that we've made just to get a laugh.

[A]

That was great.

[B]

The crane guy just accidentally drop it. You all just look at him.

[A]

That's on you.

[D]

Yeah, yeah. You Insurance. He was responsible for it until it was technically, like off display, but he couldn't.

[A]

Was he actually responsible for it? I don't think he was because we had like our own homemade crate that we were using. I don't think he was responsible for.

[E]

I don't think so. I think that's why we had such problems finding a crane guy willing to do it too.

[A]

Yeah. Well, now we got the hookup though.

[E]

Yeah, we're good.

[D]

What do you got going on?

[B]

Dude, I got a lot of stuff going on.

[C]

You building any drift tracks?

[B]

I got. Turf war is coming up.

[A]

Nice.

[B]

Going to the van prix in Connecticut now.

[D]

Really? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Because you got a title.

[E]

Yeah. Like the guy.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

So if you guys aren't doing anything, you should come or try and, you know, give the ground vic race another go.

[D]

Connecticut?

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

What's in Connecticut?

[B]

I don't know. I've never been. I've never even been to that side of the country.

[D]

It's kind of about New York, isn't it?

[C]

What event is this van pretty at halftime for in Connecticut?

[D]

I don't know.

[B]

They're just like, hey, you're the nascar. Can you imagine?

[D]

You're kind of like a traveling, like, carney.

[B]

Yeah, in a way. Yeah. I just like. It kind of just became, you know, pro minivan guy.

[A]

I guess you should start training.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Or maybe that's something you don't train for. You know, you can only put so many laps in on the body.

[B]

No, your back can only take so much. I think it's whose ever spine gives out first.

[C]

You should pick up a van though, just to get.

[A]

Yeah, just start dailying one. Dude.

[B]

What I. What I did find out, and I hope none of the other drivers listen to this podcast. The older the van the better because the new ones, you hit one little bump mode airbag.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Oh, all that stuff I grabbed like the Mitsubishi Komatsu whatever, and I was like, it's got a six cylinder and it's got big tires and this thing will eat itself alive. And it did, dude.

[F]

Yeah.

[A]

When's your turf wars?

[B]

June 1st. So yeah, I got turf wars. I got that. I want to start doing the drift series, but it turns out the first event I was going to go to lands on turf war. So then after that there's like DP3 and then I want to do the 5K, but there's like really good drivers there. I haven't got a ton of seat time.

[D]

So you want to actually compete?

[B]

Yeah, just to get like, better. I've been thinking about it. Like, I want to compete to get better, but I like, I don't think I'd ever get there. But I don't want to compete to go like pro or anything. Like that's some people's goal. But that just seems super expensive and like kind of like ruin the sport. Like, I just want to. There's like a big ass corner somewhere. I'm like, I want to hang that for an Instagram clip. And that's kind of that.

[C]

I want to be able to drift.

[B]

Around Zorpus to come into Zorbas.

[D]

Not gonna happen.

[A]

You can pretty much drift anywhere though. I mean, I've watched you.

[B]

Yeah, I just. Yeah, I want to get really good at it, but I want to get like, just comfy, scary. Like I want to be able to go fast. Like, you see those crazy YouTube videos of the guys. Like, how are they doing this? Like 100 miles an hour. I won't be able to do that. Like that hill up there, that would be so cool.

[D]

I knew that you have gotten pretty good at drifting or just driving in general. But then when you hop behind the wheel of the hoonicorn and you, you were doing what you were doing. I was like, damn.

[E]

Yeah.

[D]

He's like, actually got it.

[B]

Not gonna lie. There was a few moments where I'm like, I'm probably gonna wall this thing and have to buy this car. Like, it was scary.

[D]

Dude. Oh, dude. I thought you had it locked.

[B]

I felt like I had it locked, but it was just like, guys, that car is violent.

[D]

It's like, well, how you have to drive it. It's violent.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

Like you had it like you wound out.

[A]

Yeah. Basically the only way to get it to do what you're trying to make it do is you just. It's just like you either are giving it all or nothing. So there's no like easing into it. It kind of seemed like.

[B]

Yeah, no. And I feel like as you guys like build it out or whatever you do with it, it's going to get easier. But yeah, the way it's set up now, it's definitely like a showpiece and you get it to drift, you're like all or nothing. And you just gotta trust it.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

That was super entertaining.

[B]

I hope you let me drive it again.

[C]

You Got big plans for it, so it's only gonna get sicker. Yeah.

[D]

Yeah. It's gonna be wild.

[B]

Is it gonna be wild?

[D]

It's gonna be so sick.

[B]

Oh, dude.

[A]

I mean, you can pretty much imagine what we're gonna do to it, right?

[D]

It's not really that hard to twin snails.

[B]

You're just. You're saying it just like that.

[A]

Yep. I mean, it's obvious that that was.

[B]

Part of the plan going to be done.

[A]

Can't tell you, man. We're just still waiting on a lot.

[E]

Can't tell you, cuz. We don't know.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Tracking for half this.

[D]

Yeah. That's a tough.

[C]

They make a twin turbo kit for that Motor, the Gen1, but to make them stick out, the hood is a.

[A]

Completely going to have to be like, fab. Like, you know, the piping and all that.

[D]

Well, it also doesn't fit like the motor.

[C]

Right.

[D]

The motor barely fits in that car to begin with. Yeah. So it's like you're taking twin turbos that are supposed to go on this motor, and you basically have to just like, custom fabricate them to make it fit into the car, not just slapping them on. Like, it's gonna be a mess.

[B]

Everything's custom. Everything.

[D]

Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Luckily, Big Wrench and Gavin have their.

[B]

Work cut out for them.

[D]

But they're like. Gavin worked on exhaust manifolds and like, turbo Systems for like 10 years before he. He worked with us. And Big Wrench has been like, dude, every single time I talk to Big Wrench, I learned something new about him. Like an industry that he worked in. Like, we honestly just gotta have them on the pod someday. And they can kind of explain it a little bit more. But like, Big Ranch has worked in like, the snowmobile industry for like, 25 years. And he's like, bounced around from, like, companies. And I found out yesterday that he used to work on choppers.

[A]

So. Yeah, he built choppers.

[D]

Yeah. Because he was working on our chopper and he's like, that's why I hate these things. And I was like, what's your beef with these? Like, like, since the second I told you that we were looking at a chopper, you have been just mad about it. Yeah. And he was like a piece of. I worked on for four years.

[A]

The bolts will rattle themselves right out.

[D]

Sure enough, it did. It shakes the ball right out. Just came right out. And he was like, I told you. This is. This is why I hate these things.

[B]

He is kind of like the mad scientist. The amount of knowledge he knows, like, you can bring the most random thing ever you guys have bought. And he rolls it in, takes a look under, and he's like, oh, that's gonna break. Just like, no, dude.

[D]

Yeah, he's good at.

[A]

Yeah, he's. He. Something that sets both of them apart from the average wrench is that they can make something work that should necessarily work together, and they can do it in a. An efficient time to keep these videos rolling. You know, like, when we were at ndscs, they were like, showing us this lawnmower that had been what? It had a Cummins in it.

[E]

They had a golf cart with a cat.

[D]

No, I think it might have been a va. Yeah. Yeah.

[A]

Is that this lawnmower? The va? I don't know why I thought it was a Cummins. And I was like, man, this is sick. Like, how long this take to do? And they're like, three years. I was like, oh, three years. I was like, we told our mechanics to do it in a week.

[D]

Do not let Big Wrench and Gavin hear that.

[A]

No, but. But, like, that's the thing, though, is, like, they're able to make things happen in this short amount of time just from their experience of doing all these things. And then the. It's like every little week, basically, they get better and better, and I think that's why it would be very hard. Although we would 100 hire someone to find another, you know, a guy that can come in and.

[D]

And.

[A]

And compete with them.

[B]

Dude, they can turn and burn some equipment, though.

[D]

It's crazy.

[B]

Like, like, I'll come here on a Monday, see what's gonna happen, come back on Friday, and like, yeah, we already filmed it. Video's done, and it's all together. You can go check it out in the shop if you want. I'm like, what the. It was a pile of junk, like, two days ago.

[D]

It is crazy.

[B]

Yeah, it always amazes me, which is awesome.

[E]

Good kids. Yeah, we'll have them on one time. It'd be fun.

[A]

Yeah, that'd be cool. Pick their brain, see what's happening.

[D]

To say, it's so funny though, dude. Like, they just know, like, especially Big Wrench too. And he reminds Gavin, like, it doesn't have to be perfect. Just do it for good enough for the video, and then we can be fixed afterwards. Yeah, and that's why we have much broken stuff, is because, like, they just know. Just get it good enough for the video, and then we can worry about it afterwards. Otherwise, like, if you were to do it to perfection, then instead of one week, it takes three and then we're back, we're backed up, and we're like, why isn't this done? You know, we. We're already doing next week's video and they're just like. They're just so good.

[B]

I feel like it works out though, that way too, because, like, once you guys film the video and it's done and obviously stuff's gonna break, then it gets fixed, all the kinks are worked out, and now it's just like a good piece of equipment that's waiting down there for next time.

[A]

I'd say. Percent of it doesn't get fixed.

[D]

Okay? We just.

[A]

It just gets.

[B]

You do a good job of making it look like it does.

[A]

I don't know if you've watched 25% of it does.

[D]

Dude, it's crazy, like, how much stuff is in there and how much of it's broken.

[B]

That is like the ultimate toy shed. There's everything in there of all time. You walk in there. That is every guy's paradise. Well, every robber's paradise.

[A]

It's probably not too hard to find, but. But we do have cameras all over and there's pretty much people and here all.

[D]

And none of it runs. And none of it.

[A]

Literally none of it locked down like Fort Knox. Like you said, we also have guns.

[C]

I was like, and we got guns. And Tresters will be given a shot.

[A]

That's the thing is any of the stuff that we have in there is not worth your life. So I definitely would not try to stay.

[E]

Exactly. You know, I was thinking about that when I walked through our barn and both of our shops, just like how much stuff we've accumulated and how much of our lives are here. And then Flair's house, basically his whole yard, just took a direct hit.

[A]

Yeah, yeah.

[E]

Five.

[D]

Yeah.

[E]

It was wild.

[D]

It was. It was wild. I actually watched his video afterwards. It sucks because, like, he's got all these security cameras, like, around his property. But the power went out, so, like, he. He lost all the footage.

[E]

Oh, man.

[D]

That's what he said. Or the insurance company. He didn't want to expose it to the insurance company. I'm not sure.

[B]

Well played, my friend.

[D]

No, but I mean, as a YouTuber. YouTuber. I'm assuming that he was super bummed. Yeah, but dude, it was insane. What the tornado was able to just pick up and move. Like he had like full on or one enclosed trailer that ended up probably 400 yards from where it was. And it went over his shop like it was right here. Then he had the shop and then it ended up in the trees over here, and it had to have gone over it to, like, get to where it was.

[B]

Oh, my gosh.

[D]

It just, like, picked it up. Yeah, it was, like, shattering, like, glass doors, like, in his house. Like, insane, that type of destruction.

[E]

I mean, obviously the whole shop's gone, but, like, even his brand new house and stuff like that. Like, just heartbreaking, gut wrenching stuff.

[A]

Yeah, I saw Nelka actually was there chasing the tornado, and they're filming it, and the video actually comes out tonight. Funny enough, I'm so excited. I've wanted to do this a week.

[E]

In advance, but Tornado chasing, so bad.

[A]

Yeah. So I saw that they're in, you know, the rig they were in. Just pop up a picture of what it kind of looked like that. That's so interesting. So you could, in a sense, just literally drive right through the tornado and you wouldn't get picked up because it has those side skirts that, like, go down to the ground or what?

[E]

They have, like, stakes that, like, go down to, like, secure it in. It's heavier. It's got, like, something so the wind, like, flows over it.

[A]

My question is, so when you're in there, is it.

[D]

Can you pull up, like, footage of a tornado chaser getting hit by an actual tornado?

[A]

I've actually had go tornado chasing in my notes for a while now.

[D]

Didn't you do that? No.

[B]

Me and my dad were supposed to do it in April, and the guy ended up getting cancer and super sick. But now we're supposed to go next year if he gets, like, better. But, dude, the guy was sending me some videos. They get, like, right in it. Like, right up to it. Yeah, it's scary.

[D]

Yeah.

[E]

So here they like to spoil the spikes, deploy the spikes.

[B]

Dude, that is what I'm talking about right there.

[E]

They got a drone up in that thing.

[A]

Dude, how?

[D]

We're in it. We're in it.

[B]

That was a mailbox getting pounded. Oh, my gosh.

[A]

Oh, it gets moved. Holy crap.

[E]

Dude, I feel like there's no way that the video does this any justice. Can you imagine how insane this would be?

[A]

Dude, it moved it over. What's crazy? What's crazy is if you were in that thing and, like, a trailer hit it, then you're not in good shape.

[E]

Yeah, then it's gonna freaking take you, dude.

[C]

Dude, when Ken gets his cyber truck, we should do this.

[D]

That's a good idea, dude.

[E]

Tornado chasing with the cyber.

[D]

I like that idea.

[E]

That's a great idea. That's gonna be done now. Someone's gonna have it done. And three weeks.

[D]

Ken, are you getting the bulletproof windows?

[F]

I actually don't know how that works.

[A]

No, no, no.

[B]

We just try it. We're like, all right.

[A]

It doesn't have bulletproof windows because then you wouldn't be able to put them up and down. But the sides are bulletproof to a certain extent.

[E]

Interesting.

[A]

Like a.50 cal would blow through it. Like, a pistol would be fine.

[E]

Interesting.

[C]

I'm pretty excited for you to get.

[D]

Seriously. Wow, that's crazy.

[A]

I am too. I really like that.

[D]

That.

[A]

I think that'll be cool.

[C]

I just love. It just looks so different.

[D]

You part.

[C]

You can park next to literally any vehicle in the world and it looks crazier.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

What's gonna be crazy, though, is that they're gonna be very common because they're not made to be a rare car. Like, the whole point. The whole point of just every Tesla in general is to be mass produced. So, like, right now, they're super cool, but in, let's say, two, three years, you're probably gonna see them all over.

[E]

Interesting.

[A]

You know, especially as, like, the electric wave, we'll call it, continues to become more and more popular and more accessible to, you know, our area, the electric wave.

[C]

A lot of people saying that it's.

[D]

On the down slope, people found out that they. They're lame.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Yeah. I think, like, the. Then whatever the feeling of like, whoa, electric cool is. It's like starting to wear off.

[A]

And then people are like, no, for sure. I mean, it's just like the hype of the. The cyber truck is already kind of passed in terms of YouTube.

[B]

I feel like the hype happened when you guys, like, ordered them, like, four years ago. And it's like.

[A]

But then when you. When they got them, there was a lot of YouTubers that made, you know, they had probably like a two, three week window to make some whatever content, but now, like, Danny already shot his, like, you know, they've kind of done a lot of it with it, but I. I still think it's gonna be cool to own.

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

Not saying that it's not gonna be cool.

[F]

I think part of the.

[D]

The.

[F]

The reason why some of those electric vehicles are dropping off those. Because they're so expensive compared to just normal cars where it's like. It's just the people that want them are gonna buy them, but it's just. It's pointless for most people.

[A]

Flex, didn't you.

[D]

Dude, I've never heard of this. I've never heard of such depreciation.

[F]

I lost, like, 60000 on my model in a day.

[B]

Right.

[F]

It was like this over two years.

[E]

But, but, but why it lost most of its value because they did something right.

[C]

Yeah.

[F]

They dropped they Dr. The the sticker price.

[A]

Yeah. So he paid a lot of money for it. And then Elon was like this is supposed to be a mass produce production car. You know that everyone's should be driving. So then they like pretty much chopped the price in half.

[F]

When they first release a car the price is one thing. And then like over time the price just dropped further and further.

[D]

So what was more were out there.

[A]

What was the price of your Tesla model X plaid when you initially got it? 140.

[F]

I got the document for it.

[B]

That's a lot of money.

[F]

And it goes like 140.

[A]

So it was 140 and now you can buy a new one for what about a hundred?

[C]

Wow.

[F]

So I gotta trade an offer for 66.

[B]

That's called getting bent dude.

[F]

Not even a two year old car doesn't have 20,000 miles.

[E]

You might as well just keep it.

[F]

That's what I was thinking.

[E]

That's crazy.

[A]

It's a hell of a car to get for that much money. I mean I'd get one.

[D]

Not, not for me.

[A]

Maybe for Alex.

[D]

Every time I hop in Ken's car. So nice.

[A]

And that's the fastest one too. You know like that thing Ben. Lamborghini.

[D]

Yeah, I'd say. Disgusting.

[B]

Keep it till it blows up and we'll LS swap it.

[A]

It won't blow up. It's a battery.

[F]

Well keep until it starts on fire.

[B]

Yeah. Or whatever happens. Could have bought your own hunacorn Ken.

[E]

58% depreciation is what I calculate.

[D]

Sorry. Sorry to keep.

[E]

Trust me dude. I've done it a bunch of times. It sucks.

[C]

That's worse than a Cadillac.

[F]

Last one I made money on this one is.

[E]

You have made money on a few cars.

[A]

So do you think Hellcats are good drifters, Jake?

[B]

I don't know. I've always. You know it's funny I was talking about this last night with Mike dude and I think they're boats.

[A]

Yeah. I feel like they would be really good at like takeover when you're just doing circles. I mean doing circles is pretty easy on any rear wheel drive car would with donuts or with you know a lot of power. But but. And tires. You need those too. But. But yeah I was thinking about that. Cuz like if we're going to get this drift track it'd be kind of sweet to have a Hellcat to, like, whip around, but I don't think it's a drifting car. I feel like you'd be better off just getting a.

[B]

There's only one way to find out. But, dude, I'm so against takeovers. I think is the lame.

[A]

I agree. I don't. I don't stand for me.

[B]

No. I like.

[D]

Especially the way they've got donuts and like, it's hoodlums.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Different now. It's just like anything. Anything goes. Like people. Yeah.

[D]

How often do you see a video of somebody getting hit?

[E]

Every time.

[D]

Every single day.

[A]

What the are these people doing running out there? You got some jabroni that you don't even know whipping his hellcat. That's all beat to. And you're like, I'm gonna go run up and. And trust this guy to whip around me. I'm sure you're just in the moment.

[D]

But, dude, I don't know what he.

[A]

Gets smacked about me.

[C]

But, like, yeah, I have that like. Like, folder saved on Instagram of, like, all of them, and I still just put them in there on the daily.

[E]

Just more takeover clips.

[C]

I have a safe.

[D]

You're collecting takeover videos full of people getting hit.

[A]

Why? I'd go to one. One Takeover for a video segment. For a video segment, I will go to one Takeover and check it out.

[D]

The thing that I've been seeing a lot lately is, is it starts out with a takeover clip. And I go, here we go. Who gets hit?

[E]

Hit.

[D]

And then somebody gets hit every single time. And then the person goes flying. And then the next cut is like somebody in a dealership. Like, it kind of matches. Like, the person that gets flying and then, like, rolls on the ground is like, come on in. Buy this car.

[B]

It's pretty clever.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

Yeah. I don't know why I get so angry at. I've been getting a little in some keyboard warrior fights lately.

[A]

Because you feel like it. Their drifting is getting a lot of attention, but it's. It's like the easiest form. Yeah.

[B]

That's what pisses you off, doing a donut. I'm like, dude, any. Any kid could do that. You know, you're just.

[D]

Oh, Jake, you're such a cool.

[A]

Start linking corners.

[B]

Yeah. You want to start linking that.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

You gotta take over the whole block.

[D]

Yeah. Oh, God.

[A]

Oh, is that a girl?

[B]

Now that's awesome. That was so much better than I expected.

[E]

Try that on a dirt bike. Oh, geez. Who's calling me at this hour?

[B]

Mike? These aren't takeovers.

[C]

These are just like, well, look what it's called.

[D]

I have. It's called crazy videos.

[B]

This one's my favorite.

[E]

I love how he tries to throttle out of it too.

[D]

This one?

[C]

Yeah, that was actually sick.

[A]

That was clean.

[C]

Transition was amazing.

[D]

Golly.

[A]

What was this guy doing? Not paying attention there.

[C]

There's so many of them.

[A]

Oh, what is this girl doing in the middle?

[E]

In the middle of the intersection.

[A]

Doesn't look that nimble. And Here she goes. 2, 1.

[B]

She honestly deserved that.

[D]

The face.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

Get some air there.

[A]

Knocked out. That's bad.

[D]

Oh, my gosh. He lost his pants. Always.

[E]

Dude, the pants are always falling down, buddy.

[B]

Did a full front flip.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

You know, there's two things that these people like doing. Running into danger and not wearing belts and sliding around in obviously intersections. But three.

[D]

Oh, here goes his pain chance.

[A]

Oh, no, we lost.

[D]

Shoot.

[A]

Grab it, grab it, grab it, man. Oh, my God, dude.

[E]

Like he's running back at the car. Dude, that sucker's running hot. You can see the pipes glowing.

[A]

That's a G8.

[B]

Are down.

[E]

The pants are down, dude.

[C]

Oh, damn.

[A]

Get back or get smacked. That's the stupid.

[E]

Imagine something much more embarrassing than one getting hit by a car in front of a ton of people. Then your pants getting knocked down.

[C]

Dude.

[D]

Dude. Oh my gosh.

[E]

I only got hit by one car.

[D]

Jake, what do you think of Whistling's last video where he's roasting Mustang owners?

[B]

Dude, here's the thing I gotta say about it. Hilarious video. Super stereotypical. But when he came back and flipped that car over, it still started, bro.

[D]

That thing, I was pretty surprised by that.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

There's no denying that Mustangs honestly are really well built cars. Especially in terms of bang for your buck. Dude.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

You can beat the hell out of those things. And they just keep taking it.

[B]

It honestly just proved best car ever made. And honestly, great video.

[A]

And you can do a lot with them. You can drift them.

[D]

I don't know. I don't know if that's what it proves.

[B]

No, it def. Dude, he's driving his best car ever made.

[A]

I wouldn't say the best car ever made.

[D]

Delusional. That's what you got out.

[B]

Best car ever made. Okay, you heard it here.

[D]

Oh, man. No, I was just a guest, guys.

[B]

He's not associated with us.

[C]

Next thing you know, they're gonna be like Seaboys. Come out and say, mustang, best car.

[A]

Maybe we'll get a sponsorship.

[D]

I don't know if we want one.

[A]

I'd take us Mustang sponsorship if that's.

[D]

All we could Drive around. Oh, that six Mustang.

[B]

I'm like, oh, dude, there would be no one outside ever.

[D]

Yeah. Cormorant would be vacant.

[B]

Ghost town.

[D]

Yeah. You could buy up real estate in Cormorant for pennies on the dollar.

[A]

Color.

[B]

Dude, I've been telling you guys, you're all Mustang guys. Deep down. You just haven't accepted it yet. Got the unicorn started there.

[A]

I've liked all the Mustangs. You've had Jake.

[B]

Right from your very first one. I've always liked one I didn't like. The orange.

[A]

The orange one. I guess I don't know how I felt on that.

[B]

Well, I took my buddy's advice to get bags and get real low. That was pretty cool. I told you to do that, bro. You've been told. Getting the credit card.

[C]

Wait, what?

[D]

What was wrong with your orange one?

[B]

Dude, it just drove and rode like a lumber wagon. It was on bags, bagged out and wide bodied and so why didn't you just.

[A]

I. I understand why like people like that. And I used to like that like when I was younger. Now as I've aged, not a fan of bags. Like, I don't even really like the look. Like, I still like. I respect people. I like it. Like Dalton's a young kid.

[D]

He's looking at me right now.

[A]

I'm sure he likes it it.

[C]

He's like static or die, bro.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

You know, but that's one of those things that I just. Not for me.

[B]

You can like roll up and looking cool. But then when someone's like when you do something.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

It's just not functional, dude. It's like you got this fast car and then you can't even drive it fast because you got these shitty ass.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Airbags. So you can air it out.

[C]

Also airing down every time you park it is a little.

[A]

Yeah. And then it never looks as good too, because then your alignment and like the wheels that you're running, like you have them basically set up to be aired out. So then when you're driving it, it kind of just looks whack and you're just better off throwing a nice pair of coilovers on. It'll ride really well and then just get an. A decent fitment angle kit, you know, Maybe not. Yeah.

[D]

Hydraulic brake also.

[A]

There's different strokes for different folks. So whatever. Whatever your thing is, man.

[C]

Unless you're into like super stance then.

[B]

But I feel like 90 of them are just slapped together. Like that one WRX. You looked at that. Or like.

[A]

Well, they always got leaks. I think is the Biggest problem, you can. You can run, like, bags. They have, like, performance ones that I. I think will handle really well, But I think it's. They don't last that long.

[C]

Bags for my drift car, really? Obviously, I didn't put them in because I don't know why you do that. But, yeah, I have bags for it.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Sell that car, bro, and get a Mustang. No, just anything else.

[E]

I don't know.

[C]

I'm kind of chilling.

[B]

You're going to beat Ken's depreciation. Freaking run over there.

[C]

So far into it, I don't think I could.

[D]

So.

[A]

So for the drift track here, you were saying earlier, you. You had sent us, there was a red Miata, actually a mint red Miata sitting for sale on the side of the road. And it was kind of a lot of money. It was like eight grand. I was thinking, honestly, we'd be better off just spending a little more and get like a 370Z or 350Z or even like a pair of them or like a 350Z and then, like, a C5 Corvette that we could drift on the drift track. But then at the same time, I started thinking about. I was like, this is going to get really expensive because we're going to have everyone coming over drifting. The cars we're never going to have tires are gonna break. But it would be fun to have, like, a couple cars to hop in and just whip on there.

[C]

I'd like to think, like, being the owner of our own drift track, we could probably lock down a tire sponsor between all probably, you know.

[A]

Yeah, we get some Linglongs.

[D]

Dude, I think it'd be sick.

[B]

Linglong actually has a drift team, I'm sure. No, it's funny. But yeah. No, you guys should definitely do all of that. And I'll be coming over all the time.

[A]

85 of Linglong's buyers are actually drifters.

[C]

No. We're gonna have to pick up something, though. Yeah.

[D]

I was watching the. The original video where you got your white Mustang the other day. Not by choice. I was trying to get footage for the hoonicorn video.

[B]

Okay, okay, okay.

[D]

That one was like, I think your coolest Mustang that you've had, and then you ruined it by, like, everything that.

[A]

You did to it.

[D]

But when you got it stock, it looks. It does look really nice.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

It wasn't stock.

[B]

White wheel wheels, tons of stickers.

[D]

Yeah. Banging stickers.

[B]

It was a staple. Come on. It was like.

[D]

It was something.

[A]

That's a sick car.

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

That was way too much, dude. I drove in a gravel pit.

[D]

Oh, yeah. That was on your hate video, wasn't it?

[B]

No. No, it wasn't.

[E]

That was after the hate video.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Come on. Bringing that back.

[E]

You burned the merch once, dude.

[B]

Dude, still not over it. I'm sorry.

[D]

I apologize.

[B]

I made a mistake.

[E]

Oh, it's all good, Jacob.

[D]

Well, that was pretty sick, though, when you. When you started mobbing it, like, off.

[B]

Roading it, it felt so good. But I'm like, dude, this thing's gonna be worthless after it. Every ball joint, bushing bearing. I brought it to Martin afterwards, and he's like, dude, this thing's like, toast. Toast.

[E]

What?

[A]

I'm just driving on one gravel road.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

Like, he literally could take my wheel and go.

[A]

I thought Mustangs were tough, Jake.

[D]

Dude, they are the best car ever built.

[B]

Okay, but other things, you gotta do whatever. But, yeah, the reason I did that is like, dude, I want to top this thing out. I want to see how fast it'll go. And it was like 186 on a gravel road.

[D]

No.

[E]

Yeah.

[D]

You did that on an airport Runway, right?

[A]

Allegedly.

[D]

Did you just sneak.

[C]

Your front lip.

[B]

Folded under the car?

[A]

Dude, 186.

[B]

Yeah. I didn't know you're not supposed to touch the brakes. And I was, like, reading the markers, like, okay, I got this much room left. This much room left. And it was like screaming. I'm like, like, okay. I don't even know. I'm on base brakes. Not even Brembos. I'm on, like, single piston. I locked them up. And the back tires came off the ground. And it took the front lip and folded it under the car. I have a picture.

[D]

Tires came off the ground. I got pictures, dude.

[B]

I literally could show you. I have a picture right here.

[A]

You just have your front brake. You just have your front brake.

[B]

No manual. What's that? I can show you.

[D]

There's, like, they come down to land, they see a Mustang sliding across on his nose.

[A]

Like, those are always out of control.

[E]

Okay.

[B]

It wasn't that aggressive.

[C]

I know the Mustang.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

I believed everything until you said the back tires are off the ground. But it makes sense.

[B]

It was low, and it had that much, like, downforce.

[A]

You got.

[D]

You got a.

[A]

Like, a plastic front lip on it. Of course it's going to fold.

[B]

No, it was metal, dude. Dude, it was. I'll show you. I literally just found the pictures. Okay, hold on. You guys just keep talking. Let me find this. I'm gonna get roasted for a century if I don't cover this. You guys God dang it.

[D]

I mean, that's just an out of pocket thing to say.

[E]

God.

[A]

God. I'm just confused. Would you have only your front brakes.

[D]

Hooked up to do that?

[A]

What?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

What.

[E]

What would.

[D]

What would lead that to happening?

[B]

I don't know.

[C]

He locked him up too hard.

[D]

Did you think it was gonna do 200?

[B]

I wanted to, like, had more, but, dude, I've never. It was scary. I bet the. So after I went back, you know how you, like, tighten your.

[E]

Like you.

[B]

Where you put air in your tires that. That, like. I had metal cap stem. Yeah, they. I had metal ones. They welded themselves to the wheels. They got so hot. And my, like, my brake pads were like nothing. It was just metal on metal after that one passion. Yeah, that's why they have, like, parachutes.

[D]

So did you have a video of it?

[B]

No, I just have the picture right here. I showed Siege. You can see the lips and look like. Look how the. The back's coming up. It's not a full nose box, bro. Come on.

[A]

Okay.

[E]

I mean, it's pretty freaking light on the rear wheel.

[D]

I mean, look how. How stupid this car looked after you. We stickers.

[B]

We're past that, bro.

[D]

It was such a cool car.

[B]

It was still cool.

[E]

Damn. That is not.

[D]

That is crazy.

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

Well, we better get to work to pay for this drift track, brother.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

God dang it.

[D]

Isn't that what we're doing right now?

[C]

Yeah.

[E]

Oh, yeah, you're right.

[B]

We working. Yeah, we working. I'm glad we got that covered up. I did not need that at Zorbas.

[C]

Don't forget to send me that hot dog shack link.

[D]

All right, well, that's it for the podcast today, folks.

[B]

Dude, thank you guys for having me. I always love this.

[C]

Thanks for being here.

[D]

Always funny, always fun.

[B]

Nose manual.

[D]

Thanks for saying some out of pocket. All right. All right, subscribe if you haven't. We'll see you next time.

[E]

Kenny, send us out.

[D]

Yeah. Ken, hit that gun.

[B]

I really should have took the headphones off.

[D]

Oh, my God.

[C]

Mic up to it.

[A]

Yeah.
