I know spoons on the payroll, and it's technically his job. But GOT DAMN can we get a shout out to the man. Jumps at fixes, always has the best attitude and is an amazing fabricator. Seriously, Spoon is the GOAT, gives jimmy more time to relax and focus on content and driving. Best addition to this channel since the Black Z.
Brian, Spoon and Jimmy all drifting together by next summer will be cool to watch. Jimmy's learned so much this last year he's now able to pass on what he learned as a beginner to spoon and the rest the crew that's interested in being more involved.
@@tribewu3223 the way spoon be watching and riding along has to be given him an advantage for when he gets his car done. He will know what the car should do and how to fix it an make it drive to his advantage. I have faith spoon got this🙏💯
It’s seriously better than a TV show. There’s a storyline through the video, yet nothing feels preproduced or manufactured just for the camera. It feels like we’re seeing what it’s actually like in the shop but not random clips thrown together as a vlog.
Couldn't be more stoked that the boys put this together in time for limerock. Some of the craziest driving from Jimmy ever. Cant wait to see more driving with this car.
I can’t believe you guys pulled this together, why do I feel like Spoon the mad man suggested getting this done for grid life, no one thought it was possible but here you are! Great content, amazing car and what a story!
Dude! You were getting Japan level closeness on that fast ass track. You have come so far in driving and on camera - great stuff, really proud of you 🤘
The Gentleman's drift car - comparatively quiet and calm sounding, but able to throw down when the time comes! To think you guys put this together in a week is insane! Jimmy, Spoon and the crew are freakin' legends for pulling this off!!
Seeing Brian and Jimmy drift together is so awesome I love to see the energy and all the crew evolved. Austin I think the gto needs to be a drift car spoon I can't wait to see you shred with Jimmy in the 86. Good job guys 👏 👏 👏
Seeing this thing on track on saturday after watching all the videos was awesome. car was ripping. shouts to spoon for coming over and saying whats up, after I said hi.
I've said it before, and I'll continue to say it. This is the most well rounded group of guys. Everyone adds something to the team and everyone adds quality of character and skill to the channel. I get way too amped every time a new video is posted
The drifting skill level has risen so much. The nz trip, japan trip, ire land tripS and Dubai trip have been awesome to watch and see jimmy go from being so nervous in d1nz to dooring so many people in this video in a fresh build.
Those revs @2:30 combining the whine of the LSA and the LS3 exhaust are just orgasmic. It may be a dirty little secret for all of the 2J boys, but the rest of us openly admit how much we love it.
Event looked killer. I still think as a driver there is no better feeling than tandeming with buddies while you have a buddy in the car; everyone having the time of their life. I miss it so much.
Dawg, your driving has improved ten-fold in the last 2 years. Your trip to Japan really set in your confidence. Its so sick to see you shredding in a car that you don't have to fight and allows you to just express your talent
Love seeing Jimmy, Brian and Grant driving together some sick driving from everyone ,but those runs were my favorite to watch. Glad the boys were able to get this thing together for such an awesome event. Shout out spoon especially mans such a hard worker and the payoff is we get to see sick builds like this.
Spoons smile says it all! That car is so smooth and watching how much less handbrake you used after 3 laps and just let the car flow through transition was really cool to watch!! Stoked for you to be in such a capable car! Great job crew!
out of all jimmy's mates grant is hands down the best bloke and not saying the other aren't but grant is just the type of guy you want around, always pumped for his mates and giving tips and just being a good bloke
You’ve gotten so much smoother and coordinated with your hands while drifting in such a short time. Also the fact that you were basically shaking down a car.
I want to say something but I have no words just sitting here smiling watching everything pure happy emotion, killing it out there Jimmy and the Oakes fam!
Jimmy, Adam, Grant, tommy, I’m so proud of the whole CT crew you guys are doing so good each of you have came such a long way. Wishing you all the best and even more success been a supporter of the crew since 2014 💯
This was cool to watch. Don’t change alignment before you mess with different tires/pressures. Keeping the car easy to drive will help you much more in the long run.
i was just so happy to hear the turn around in your own words Jim as i know if a car dose not sit right or act right it plays on your mind so your boost of satisfaction and confidence must feel so rewarding
Congrats on the success guys.....Some of those later runs with Brian were extra spicy Jimmie! I've got to go see if Larry posted any shots yet. Spoon needs some time to finish his build... I can't wait to see him join the fray!
Yes sir. ❤❤❤ let’s F ing go. Asked for a spot on the wall an got the trunk!!!!!!!!! Can’t believe it. Love the hole team you guys are unbelievable. And unstoppable!!!!
The in-car footage and audio is wild! That Scream!!! Is it the supercharger or the boys screamin'!!!! The smoke show Now!! Dang! Respect 🙏to all the crew
Jimmy, you finally have a car that reflects your potential ,which you are able to show what you're really capable of, I'm proud :D :D Greetings from the boys from Poland :)
Loose or not you let that thing eattttttt! The tandems with B Hall nuts! So great to see you guys finally tandem again. It is now a true comp car! Spoon is a Fn goat too. On point with all the BS and just letting you focus on driving. Rj is the concession god, Steve the words of wisdom, and Austin killing production. Whole crew is a vibe!
I love how every new video of Jimmy driving his absolute ass off seems like the best example of Jimmy's driving we've ever seen. Just shows that all this practice has really been paying off, and now that the E36 is finally happy I know we've only seen the beginning. Jimmy's become one hell of a driver.
Tyre management is needed with the E36 and really need to perfect the left foot braking to keep it smooth without having to Ebrake, what a machine though it just wants to be pushed. So pleased to see all the guys get this build ready for action :).
Awesome work guys u killed it. Steve u r the only one I don’t fast forward threw when u r talking about advertisement or merch drops or anything of that nature u kill it man
Steve is getting really good at the sponsored segments. And all the boys that helped get the e36 to grid life are crazy. All of you did fantastic and I came out great.🔥
Keep fucking sending this missile, the progress you`ve done in it in just 2 days is amazing. Hell of a team to pull off this build so fast and have it do so well first time out, insane!
Miss Brian being in the video so amazing to see you all drifting together been along time waiting to have you guys both in the BMW's and it's been worth the wait
Supercharged LS ain't no dirty secret. It's just awesome, even if your not an LS fan, you can't ignore that torque and how linear the power is VS big turbo's. And they are more compact and lighter than you would think for something in the area of 6L It's not gonna stand out in a line of fancy / rare builds but it'll perform damn well and should be ROCK solid The difference in the proximity your getting in the BM shows how much more comfortable you are in it... Or how much you've progressed these last few months since you last drove it.(at least on channel) Great job..
Honestly between spoon and johan, Jimmy and Adam have managed to find the best people to work with them. I think thats a huge testimony to both of their characters! Amazing content man looking forward to Aus visit!
The calmer hands/wheel work on day 2 (especially the runs following Grant n TJ and then B Hall) should not go overlooked!! You’re a whole different animal when driving confident and at ease! Keep it going boys!
An LS engine we all love to be hate it but love it when no one is looking. Can’t beat the power per dollar you get. Plus ease of parts in ever parts store.
I was sayin jz but you’re right this things cool as hell Sick to see how comfortable you look in this thing already too, you really had me worried last video you seemed a bit scared of the ls (rightfully so it’s a big change). Love seeing Brian have some better luck w his car too that’s awesome y’all finally got some solid laps together It’s so funny tpains out there gettin it That passenger camera footage towards the end looks so cool need more of that when possible
Damn fam the E36 seems awesome. I'm so stoked to see you out there whipping her. And if the steering is your only issue you guys knocked it out the park.
At first the automotive purist in me was like, no don't take away the BMW-ness of the car. This powertrain makes sense now and I love how it transformed the BMW. More power, less drivetrain stress, less RPM for the same if not greater results is full of win.
Shortening the gear times can make all the difference, now all the e36 needs is a sweet oakes livery (also damn, EVERYONE went out to limerock. So cool)
So awesome watching you pull this thing together last minute and it run flawlessly with a few hiccups to iron out. Was so sick seeing you and Brian swing the ls e’s. Can’t wait to meet you man. Keep killing it. 🫡❤️
THIS. This video is what i needed for motivation for my turbo 302 e36 drift build. Its so amazing to watch the amount of enjoyment you guys get as a group of friends just drifting around. Insane amounts of props to you guys for this build!
I might be on my own on this one and I know it’s a 40 min video, but. It’s so cool seeing you hang with the boys playing cornhole and the hammer game (I’m a carpenter and have no clue what it’s called lol) I personally think the whole social aspect of it is so sick, and very entertaining. Anyway thanks Jim for all the bangers, and the crew ofc

Lol Spoon needs a lot to do to catch up
@@tribewu3223 the way spoon be watching and riding along has to be given him an advantage for when he gets his car done. He will know what the car should do and how to fix it an make it drive to his advantage. I have faith spoon got this🙏💯
And Grant, don't forget Grant!
Austin you have outdone yourself with how you improved production on the videos. Congrats boys you have fkn done it 🙌
It’s seriously better than a TV show. There’s a storyline through the video, yet nothing feels preproduced or manufactured just for the camera. It feels like we’re seeing what it’s actually like in the shop but not random clips thrown together as a vlog.
FOR REAL
I get some Mike divine influence in the styling and vibe...which is awesome.
Plus always some classy comments from him👌
they have a filmer editor now.
Couldn't be more stoked that the boys put this together in time for limerock. Some of the craziest driving from Jimmy ever. Cant wait to see more driving with this car.
Jimmy and Brian killing it!!! Best tandems I saw at limerock!!
Fax they were awsome!!!!
I can’t believe you guys pulled this together, why do I feel like Spoon the mad man suggested getting this done for grid life, no one thought it was possible but here you are! Great content, amazing car and what a story!
Dude! You were getting Japan level closeness on that fast ass track. You have come so far in driving and on camera - great stuff, really proud of you 🤘
That power train seem to suit you so good. The way you drive LS beamers, man it looks badass! Keep killin’ them tires!
The Gentleman's drift car - comparatively quiet and calm sounding, but able to throw down when the time comes! To think you guys put this together in a week is insane! Jimmy, Spoon and the crew are freakin' legends for pulling this off!!
Spoon is such a great member of the team, huge respect to him!!

*I don't have the Jimmy Oakes Patreon, but this is one of the longest TH-cam videos I've seen from here! Good content*
The shot/scene at 36:23 is insane! Best clip in the video, looks so raw! Props to whoever took that ❤️🔥
This channel and builds elevated soo much since adding Spoon to the crew and payroll
Brian is a sick man behind the wheel🔥 and man finally jimmy is in a worthy setup can’t wait for those proper tyres and small improvements

Spoon being so hyped as passenger just shows how much he cares for Jimmy and his success
Videos like this is why this channel is addicting, seeing the work pay off *chef’s kiss”
Grant, Jimmy, and Brian having basically the same cars is such a vibe. Next years Final Bout team!
Brian's car sounds SO good 🤤
Those revs @2:30 combining the whine of the LSA and the LS3 exhaust are just orgasmic.

Get you a spoon if you don't got one because this man is an army all packed into one 👏👏
Excited as fuck for this one, boys! You guys killed it on the 36. Thing looked mean at the track.
I want to say something but I have no words just sitting here smiling watching everything pure happy emotion, killing it out there Jimmy and the Oakes fam!
Jimmy, Adam, Grant, tommy, I’m so proud of the whole CT crew you guys are doing so good each of you have came such a long way. Wishing you all the best and even more success been a supporter of the crew since 2014 💯
Nah man Tommy’s still a scumbag for how dirty he did ruddy
The drifting was great can’t believe you guys put this together in a week keep Killin it 👌🏼
This was cool to watch. Don’t change alignment before you mess with different tires/pressures. Keeping the car easy to drive will help you much more in the long run.
Shout out to Rj for holding down the booth 👏

originally i was unsure about brian’s exhaust but that thing makes an ls sound german. that sound matches the car perfectly, bravo.
33:35 LOVE IT! Just freakin' sending it down the hill, banging limiter, then handbrake into a perfect slide. This car is a weapon!
Yes sir. ❤❤❤ let’s F ing go. Asked for a spot on the wall an got the trunk!!!!!!!!! Can’t believe it. Love the hole team you guys are unbelievable. And unstoppable!!!!
Seeing Jimmy and Bryan fry together is a good feeling!
The in-car footage and audio is wild! That Scream!!! Is it the supercharger or the boys screamin'!!!!
The smoke show Now!!
Dang!
Respect 🙏to all the crew
So happy to see the LS performing so well. And so happy to see B enjoying his car!
Jimmy, you finally have a car that reflects your potential
,which you are able to show what you're really capable of, I'm proud :D :D Greetings from the boys from Poland :)
Loose or not you let that thing eattttttt! The tandems with B Hall nuts! So great to see you guys finally tandem again. It is now a true comp car! Spoon is a Fn goat too. On point with all the BS and just letting you focus on driving. Rj is the concession god, Steve the words of wisdom, and Austin killing production. Whole crew is a vibe!
So stoked to see the e36 ripping. This beast is going to take Jimmy's drifting to an even higher level

So happy for everyone at oaks garage!Jimmy and spoon you guys killed this build!Its just going up for this build!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Spoons enthusiasm is contagious and intoxicating ❤
Wild machine dude!
Great work by Grant, TJ etc for not spoiling the surprise for us on there Chanel’s 👌
From watching spoon come in and almost make jimmy cry for cutting up the e36 to the point it and they are now.. fun journey
I knew this car would kill it! Perfect shake down!
Tyre management is needed with the E36 and really need to perfect the left foot braking to keep it smooth without having to Ebrake, what a machine though it just wants to be pushed. So pleased to see all the guys get this build ready for action :).
Bro this is so dope seeing all the boys drifting together is so sick. And bro B Hall is a monster at drifting he’s so smooth with it it’s crazy
Not gonna lie I forgot how good and consistent of a driver bhall is nice to see him on track
Well now that the Beamer has reaching the Ultra Instinct form LMAO So nasty! on the next episode of Jimmy Oakes! 😁
Awesome work guys u killed it. Steve u r the only one I don’t fast forward threw when u r talking about advertisement or merch drops or anything of that nature u kill it man
i am so happy to see Brian out there, that boy is killing that shit! good job jimmy and the crew, the e36 is a whole different beast now.
love how you just motor swap the Bma then off slaying it all weekend and it didn't skip a beat
Only TH-cam channel that I feel like I’m living vicariously through. I’ll be there one day
Steve is getting really good at the sponsored segments. And all the boys that helped get the e36 to grid life are crazy. All of you did fantastic and I came out great.🔥
Keep fucking sending this missile, the progress you`ve done in it in just 2 days is amazing. Hell of a team to pull off this build so fast and have it do so well first time out, insane!

The best weekend ❤❤❤ love you guys. See you soon
The crew killed it with the car n the performance speechless
Supercharged LS ain't no dirty secret.

Or how much you've progressed these last few months since you last drove it.(at least on channel) Great job..
That’s the most animated I’ve ever seen Spoon, let alone EVERYONE else who went for a ride along. Great job guys, stoked for what’s next!
Honestly between spoon and johan, Jimmy and Adam have managed to find the best people to work with them. I think thats a huge testimony to both of their characters! Amazing content man looking forward to Aus visit!
BRIANS CAR IS RUNNING AND KILLING IT!!! The e36 and e46 both LS swapped shredding it is beautiful to watch 🥹
I love the way you guys diagnosed the issue, fixed it and just went out and nailed some sick runs 🤙
You have made an Aussie V8 lover who had a 6.2 Maloo very happy listening to your new weapon 🤘
Holy fuck dude! The car is a weapon and ur driving this year has gone too the moon. Recruit Brian and Grant for team Oakes 🔥 Greetings from Sweden!🇸🇪
So proud to see you and b hall banging doors together in your ls powered e series cloud makers
The calmer hands/wheel work on day 2 (especially the runs following Grant n TJ and then B Hall) should not go overlooked!! You’re a whole different animal when driving confident and at ease! Keep it going boys!
Do not stop the E36 content! The motivation to keep working on my E36 is through the roof. Keep it Team Oakes!
An LS engine we all love to be hate it but love it when no one is looking. Can’t beat the power per dollar you get. Plus ease of parts in ever parts store.
Spoons reaction to how good the car was working is gold
I was sayin jz but you’re right this things cool as hell
Sick to see how comfortable you look in this thing already too, you really had me worried last video you seemed a bit scared of the ls (rightfully so it’s a big change). Love seeing Brian have some better luck w his car too that’s awesome y’all finally got some solid laps together
It’s so funny tpains out there gettin it
That passenger camera footage towards the end looks so cool need more of that when possible
This content is almost too good to be free! What an awesome outcome, love to see Jim happy with the E36 finally!
It's fun to see the more confident you feel the less you touch the handbrake. It's still a thing though, but way better than before.
Damn fam the E36 seems awesome. I'm so stoked to see you out there whipping her. And if the steering is your only issue you guys knocked it out the park.

Brian’s car sounds like a straight up demonnnnn. 🤯🤯
Cannot imagine the feeling of 7,000 rpm down that down hill man holyyyyy shitttt 😳😳🤯
So proud of the team! Amazing to see what you guys did in such a short about of time. Also I think the bright wheels need to stay!
Bruhh Grant is so funny 🤣🤣🤣 You got health insurance!!😂😂😂
THIS. This video is what i needed for motivation for my turbo 302 e36 drift build. Its so amazing to watch the amount of enjoyment you guys get as a group of friends just drifting around. Insane amounts of props to you guys for this build!

Nice to see an MR2 rolling with Jimmy’s crew now. Even if it does have the wrong engine in it.
Seeing you and brian ripping the bmws together is so dope👏 Both having an ls is pretty cool too
all it took was one tandem with b hall, to set thgis whole ls thing in motion, so stoked for you Jimmy
Man this is so sick. So glad it just works!! 1 thing tho, id like to see less handbrake during tandems chasing and more left foot braking
It was cool to watch you learn the car by that last lap your throttle control was great.
31:39 - If that's the perfect image for a shirt... Grit and Jimmy throwing down big angle
Dang boys this 36 is a MONSTER! Well done the whole team 👏 that was some beautiful driving Jim, love to see it 🥲❤
Another banger from the Oakes garage team. Everybody killed it in this!
So proud of you boys.
Bee has being killin it in the 46.
