- Alexi Smith AKA Nori Yaro has been bringing us the coolest drifting and car culture from japan for almost two decades. Everything from low riders and dodge van racing to underground car culture Alexi has been around it all. Alexi also has been drifting for almost two decades as well and having someone who has drifted a ton of different cars from JZXs to R32’s to S15s means they really know their stuff. Now that he is commentating the English stream for D1GP Alexi is teaching us about all the intricate details of every driver and vehicle for every round. His hyper analytical approach gives us the best insight to anything he covers on his channel. Alexi is a legend in the drift and car community world wide.

*Alexi talking history for 40min*
Palmer: yeah..
Alexi:yeah…………..
Palmer:yeah..
Alexi: So anyways….
Hahaha. Top tier interviewing skills over here.
Maybe I'm not in the know but as a real Japanese car fan, I can safely say that it was about time we got this gentleman in this format. A gentleman and a scholar.
Yeah he's super interesting!
alexi was the person who got me into drifting and cars. I remember stumbling upon the red 86 video the week it was posted when I was 12 changed my life forever.
Hearing Alexi talk so casually about his meet n greet in aus is so funny. He really did just treat everyone like a mate, but in reality, everyone was really meeting a hero and an icon to them. Will forever appreciate how dedicated he was to saying hi to everyone. I feverishly await his return to aus x
Best late Christmas Gift
FACT
My absolute favorite part about Alexi’s videos is his little bits of info he feeds you on everything. My favorite videos are when he goes to a Sunday meet or the rotary meets and teaches you so much about all the different cars down to the strangest things, it’s really immersive and informative
The thought of someone casually just putting a VHS in their pocket is wild.
Definitely need another episode of this, I could listen to Alexi talk all day! Not to mention palmer is a handsome king
I'd listen to Alexi talk about anything all day 🤣🤣 the random Japanese he throws in is my favourite I don't understand a word but id listen to it all day regardless 👍👍
Noriyaro’s OG raw drift videos will always be top to me
@noriyaro please do more of this. Been watching you for years now, and this was so rad. I've always wanted to learn more about where you started and stuff.
I've picked up a fair bit of it over the years, but so much of it in one place like this is great.
Glad to give a platform for this. I just sat back and listened haha. So many good stories.
@@Goodestcast I can't imagine I would do anything different. You were talking to a living legend. Sometimes you just gotta let em do their thing. The dude got where he is for a reason, he's great to listen to.
Much love!
LOVED this!!! Some real gems in this one. Squaring up with the ex-GP Sports boss is 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks legend!
I have a friend who is a regular at my local track and he is still drifting at 67 years old. Every single track day he is there ripping it up. I hope to be him one day.
So cool!
Alexi aka noriyaro needs to do weekly vids his stuff is too good
Time to binge watch another pad cast series, I’m glad I got introduced to this
Glad you're here!
An entertaining 3.5hr podcast is not an easy thing to accomplish...you guys made 3.5 hours not feel like 3.5 hours. Would definitely listen to a PT. II
That's really kind, thank you!
Absolutely amazing interview! Exactly what we were looking for. This has the be the best insight into Alexi’s background - super informative! Alexi has always been a huge influence to me and it was great to finally get a video like this! Thank you!!
Glad to hear it!
Ric Shaw is an Aussie rotary racing legend. Most people here might be familiar with PAC and their drag racing stuff but Ric has been doing it just as long on the track and, RIP Oran Park
The incident with the GP Sports boss had me stunned and cracking up at the same time. Alexi don't strike me as the type of person who would blow up like that.
Mana-P is the god commentator! In person he is definitely the most humble with a low key personality. I met him at TC2000 during a time attack event he was commentating for, I think Option was shooting the event. I told him how famous he was over seas and he would not accept it. Super nice guy.
Awesome show, awesome guess. Took me 3 days to finish listening.
Love Alexi's Daikoku PA back drop btw lol
Alexi's always so good with his words
How he said his channels theme song is kinda like a dinner bell, everyone's salivating when the song comes on 😂
So true. The song was done by Guitar god Myrone, who also did our Animal Style theme song.
I loved this! Alexi is such an inspiration to me and i loved hearing him talk about all this, cheers
Def need a part 2 of this chat
What a good conversation to listen to!
wholesome ❤️ thanks for taking time guys
Indonesian people indirectly steer Alexi into drifting is the thing I don't expect to hear ever
Goodestcast living up to it's name. Love that you got Alexi on here
Thanks haha
Puts me right to sleep, love stories like this ❤️
Interviewer gets a word in at 1:10:56
Heart you Alexi!
He's really interesting, I had to just let him run with it. If you watch some of the other episodes I talk almost too much sometimes haha.
Best podcast I head in a while ! THX Goodestcast and Alexi ❤❤
Thank you!
best so far!!
I was going to go to bed but I guess I’m staying awake till 3am!
Great episode!
An excellent interview. I'm interested in how he was able to get a permanent job and stay in Japan at the end of his working holiday though. To the best of my knowledge, people entering the country on such a visa are forbidden from finding permanent employment and must return to their home country at the end of a working-holiday. The Japanese authorities even ask for proof that you have a way to get home before they'll issue the visa.
Lore iyaro
Christ, Alexi's backstory is like two seasons of Initial D.
oh fuck yeah this is the motivation i need to attend my first event coming up next season
Doooope! Love to hear that!
Do it, you WILL NOT regret it, your wallet might, but you wont!
that was great, and yes, bring him to norcal.
I been building a fuel cell this whole stream lol
The goodest!!!! Love alexi!
this is that good shit
Podcasts are true talk shows.
Alexi standing up to the GP Sports boss is a good story. Sometimes, even the big wigs need correction. Probably not as heated, but still.
2:06:10…… me looking at my blackberry torch that i have used daily for about 8 years…. Damn, why you gotta do me like that?
Ok, this is epic
Grab it and Twist It!!!
hahaha
50:20 anyone know what the Japanese saying is? Otoko… something?
Edit… wait is it “koto de iiwake”?
otoko ha damatte。 男は黙って。 おとこ は だまって。 all of the writings in latin hiragana, kanji including hiragana and all hiragana. "ha" is read as "wa". Hopefully helps 👍 Alexi already said the meaning after saying it
palmer has the most fried answers.
I was super out of it on this one haha.
Dude, Myrone intro is too sick to replace. Only one that could ever make another song hype enough would probably just be Myrone.
He’s the best
this was so fucking cool
Damn, I thought I left a comment. Here it is.
Back in days we was going to pig farms in or town to get tyers for drifting. Becous they cover manrue or something with plastic and top it withy tyes like weight to cover it.. ❤
Fuck its 2023 and people in the states still have that same mentality about lsd's! 😂
Wym?
great all the way through
3:22:25 my exact living situation rn haha
👏 ❤
👍🏻
🥞🥞🥞🥞
Enjoyed watching Alexi talk, but man and this may be a weird gripe but, you should put up a room partition or something when doing these. Looks like you're looking at a college dorm room and makes you look super low budget/unprofessional. Not hating, just an observation.
I am budget and unprofessional hahaha
@Goodestcast-drifting-podcast You can still be budget and look good doing it. A room divider is under $40, stick a $10 string of LED's behind that, and you have a cool looking background!
