I have 2 e36 chassis sitting in my driveway, you can have them cause I just dont have the time to work on them, 1 is already stripped 90% down and needs some sheet metal work, the other is prob closer 60% stripped but doesnt have as much rot on it
Dm him he’s got 4 different accounts revolving him/brand/ compound he’s got a business email address as well plus johan/booth could possibly see a Dm as well if your serious shoot that shot and get the money back you need to break even on both chassis. Don’t scam tho be truthful. he’s a business man by degree let’s see a new blue E36 back on a track/ripping before irrwendale
@@Evan-wj4vh Im leaving it up to him, because who knows, maybe he has a different plan up his sleeve? I am just throwing it put there, doesnt matter if they continue to sit in my driveway or not, but if he wants them, I will gladly work out a deal with him, Im a pretty easy going guy
He actually posted on insta stories, and some other people from the team, that they are looking for an E36 chassis. Hit them up there, they'll probably be interested
The biggest thing I see about you competing in FD this year is you and the Compound team dove head first to compete with the bigger teams and you guys worked damn hard to do this all while trying to get drift masters going too. Mad props to you guys showing you can make some awesome things happen even having a smaller team.
if this car does not get fixed. we better see it hung up in the shop or on top of a shipping container around the compound drift track. love this car. sad to see what happened but just thankful your all good and walked away.
It’s probably not getting fixed most and seen its last event. It looks really bad unfortunately but as Adam said maybe he could get it good enough for a seat time. The roof pillars are cracked and that shock tower is pushed into the turbo. Also the underneath is a mess like the frame rails are probably toast form riding the wall.
@@bigmikeyz0071 I feel like he’d have to cut out a lot and do a fulll tubed front at the bare minimum. At that point do another drift masters e36 so both are identical
Gut the car. Make it shine again. And hang that thang on the wall!! We all watched where this machine came from. What youve done with it has been nothing less than amazing bro. And seeing it through various stages has been the best part. Everyone knows what you can do now. That e36 was on rails and you drove it like a mad man. Keep it a reminder of that journey.
I bet he could hang a Porsche from his wall cheaper, not that he can't afford to do it just that these are tools for racing and content creation at the end of the day, it isn't like he doesn't have 6 other e36s he could do all this again with if he wants another e36 comp car, at this level of drifting people go through more chassis than they do differentials.
Your crew are fucking magicians man. Any normal race car team would of called that end of weekend. Your car looked new when you went into the second round. They need a raise bro....for reals
These FD videos are BY FAR my favorite, I only started watching drifting because of you. I really hope you can get back to FD this year but hope you can build an E36 for next season. That chassis is the one for you, taken your driving to a new level. Looking forward to the next
Watching the behind the scenes makes the event even better. The amount of work Adam and his team put in to compete is insane. Can’t wait to see the come back with the new chassis.
@@mindedchaos it’s just very unfortunate that in the last two years Fd has had 2 cars nearly flip now I’m not saying different barriers would have prevented it but James wouldn’t have gotten hurt and Adam wouldn’t have nearly as much damage throughout the car
Minowa is always going half the speed in the lead, but then stays on your tail in the chase, so obviously he has the power. It's like his game plan to make everyone drift slower than they're used to
I mean, even if it is intentionally you gotta adjust. Part of the reason James Deane is so strong is because people in drift masters run all sorts of stuff. I've seen him fighting it out in the final against a guy with half the horsepower.
Been watching from the start when blue E36 first came to the channel and seeing it journey and all the different versions, and it’s sad to see it the car end here. The legendary Blue E36 can’t end here…
As much as I'm with you on that, I think maybe it is time to retire the blue E36 and display it at his compound. Something like Daigo Saito has at his compound in Japan
If I recall correctly, there was something about the steering geometry / suspension setup that left him uninterested I driving it. Even if he wanted to drive it, the amount of work necessary to get that car and Adam up to speed likely isn't worth the hassle in the grand scheme of things. He wasn't even originally planning on doing this many rounds, so going out of the way and changing his schedule to fit these recent Rounds was already pushing it. With everything Adam has going on and how late in the season it is, it wouldn't make sense.
Sorry to see your car get totaled man,you are one of the handful of youtube guys I feel is a really genuine good guy. I hope this means we get more in the shop videos with you though those videos were the best.
After Adam won the Riverside 50K with the BMW they were almost an unbeatable pair. It's been so amazing to see the car evolve over the years and get so extreme it ends up competing at the highest level possible! Even though blue is totally not my colorway choice, I really loved this car. It had such a great vibe and what a trooper taking all that abuse. My background in autobody tells me that car really is totaled. The amount of work it would take to repair might be more than starting with a fresh chassis. The orange S-15 is just chillin' there though! Bought a few shirts and hoodies from the shop, hope it helps!
51:45.. For those that know, we won't forget that this car took you to the next level and had what it took to be a champion with you(LZ) behind the wheel. What a great shot of the car. It just kept giving. LZ you're such a great sport. We saw what happened. Really dig your character. Stay committed, positive and don't let the losses pull you down, rather inspire you to do even better. Wishing your FD E36 is still good to run at home and a memory to what it was for you this year.

As a German i really can say that you really used every bit an ounce of this car. You really used it. Now save up and build a tribute which is way better in every way. Now you have an excuse for it. Sad to see this e36 go but still hyped to see the next project (or another e36) come. Keep up the great work ! 👍
You've grown so much in this sport and pushed yourself season over season. Something like this shows that you're willing to push further and get better and better. I'm sure you'll be back and better soon! Keep it up.
Bro a massive thank you is in order from all of us, what a blast it was watching you this year. You could tell you were comfortable and just having fun! Would love to see you run FD again next year with the next best thing Johan can build!!!!
Glad you walked away safe man, the drifting world needs you in it. That being said, I feel like the S15 deserves a chance to redeem itself at seattle. Winning is still possible, the points don't lie.
Bro honestly ben coming over ans saying congrats after thr car troubles and how humble he is honestly is badass yall both gave it your all ben is never sad always optomistic
bro people were hating on ben and his girl like crazy in the live stream which is sad tbh but some people are just like that, ben seems like a decent guy and a good driver so props
@@malachigrogan7384Yeah I wouldn't want any drivers to ever crash not even my worst enemy! That just just shows the trashy person she is I feel bad for Ben!
@@malachigrogan7384 hate's still not deserved.. if it was your SO driving and you knew their opponent made a mistake that could have handed your SO a win anyone else would be cheering as well, that's racing. people will use anything as an excuse to try and crap on some one and it's pathetic. but seeing how Ben is suffering just as much as Adam and even James at times who has 18 years of experience their first year just proves how huge the learning curve is with that chassis.
@@sirmonkey1985 ...never said it was deserved... ik why she was smiling. It ment ben could move on to the 16. Butttttt it was really bad timing to be shown on camera doing that. Not saying it was deserved just bad timing
As someone who has been watching since this car made its first appearance on the channel it hurts so much thinking it might just be done😢, I’m sure it dwarfs in comparison to Adam and his whole team. Bottom line rubbing is racing and this car and what your team has been able to accomplish with it has brought so much inspiration and passion to a lot of young drivers and maybe a lot of veteran drivers as well. Glad your safe and not injured, can only build back better from here✌️
It's a real shame to see your best FD season end like this. But where there's no risk, there's no gain. As you say it's a game with fire and if we look at motorsport as a whole then drifting is certainly one of the sports with a higher risk of accidents. Hopefully the whole drivetrain didn't suffer too much from the crash. Another bit of experience gained, even if it's certainly not the kind of experience you want to have. Now focus on RIGA BABY!
The risk factor adds excitement for sure (adding walls in OZ1) but like others have said, those walls should be flat to prevent cars from going airborne, right? Like that just seems too risky imo.
@@ModMyRide Yes, flat walls are definitely safer. Hopefully FD is aware of this and will change it for 2025 or even for upcoming rounds this year. If there will be further changes of this kind on other tracks. I definitely liked the new wall in T1.
So thankful youre safe and well. Thats the most important above all. This car has such a place in our hearts. Hope to see it revived in some lesser capacity. She deserves it for all shes been through
I'm glad you walked away from that unharmed man... That was rough. Sorry to see the car end up like this after all the hard work from you and the entire team that went into it. Hope you all learned a lot and I'm sure the next car will be even better! Keep it up team. All the best!
You did really well this year. Truly a huge improvement with your driving it's amazing. I hope to see you one year be able to fully commit to a FD season or even drift masters and win the entire thing! Thank you for the amazing performance you put on for us this season.
I’m happy to see Adam having fun in FD and was so motivated to keep going to more rounds. Sucks this is likely the end of the 2024 season but I’m hoping this means a full 2025 season and likely a brand new chassis or maybe using the white car.
The lead run before the wreck was insane! Bumper on the wall the whole time and snappy transitions. Life may have taken the car but you still have your skill and life. Good on ya Adam.
Damn dude. I’ve watched you from almost the start and the evolution over everything is crazy. I love that e36 so can’t imagine how gutted you are about it. But you’re safe and healthy and that’s way more important. Just rebuild another for us to enjoy seeing you win
This video is sad because we know how it ends (because of the title and the fact that we saw it first on IG, lol), but it's so cool to see you keep getting better and better at FD! If you hadn't crashed, you probably would've podiumed again. Oh well, all that matters now is that you're okay!
man your mindset is so good, actually i learn a lot of things only by watching your videos1 you never know who you are inspiring, soo keep going and go do big stuff Adam! :)
It was amazing seeing this car compete this season. Ever since the Cream S13 days, it's been all improvement, learning, crashing rebuilding and doing better than before. Despite the result of the Blue E36, I'm super glad you opted to really get into comp this season more than you had planned. It really showed how competitive you actually are when you're in a chassis that works for you. Keen to see what the future holds!
Adam we love you broski. Dust off the s15 and get it ready or transfer everything to another e36. But please finish this season you can do it. Dont let this keep for going harder. Dont want you to regret it in the future. I know it sucks i cant even imagine. But stay strong and you got an amazing team that will back you up. Plus you Drift HQ will all the parts you need next door just have keep your tab open 😂.
Thankful for the team behind the car and that both drivers are good. Glad it wasn’t the new chassis. This one’s been through hell. And as always beautiful shots Mike.
Minowa's slow driving and lack of angle, will become a point of contention at the end of the season. Edit: funny how some are pretending that I'm not blaming both parties, but only one. Those of ya'll need to go back to school update your reading comprehension skills.
Lot of people seem to be coming to the realisation that dude sandbags it hella hard whenever he is leading, interesting too see what everyone’s take on it will be as it becomes more and more apparent
Looks like he slows down. Alot. Even in the crash can see him hit the breaks right before adam hit his rear tore no angle. Looks like he is trying to win by taking people put or making them hit his car and win by default but keeps up with them in chase. With out a problem so yeah I see this being all him. In this crash and not adam. But adam was worn not to fallow close to him do to his sandbaging in the lead
I saw this live and it made my eyes water I was so sad for you man.. don’t listen to these haters on the fd chat you were RIPPIN all day and I can’t wait to see how you come back even stronger!
Sim boy tapped the brakes in my opinion seeing the the lights on his front windshield. So that fact that’s he’s a left foot rider and drifts 2seconds slower shows he needs to step up his game and get off the sim.
Fr it was def a combo of Adam sending it in a bit too hard and then the kid botching his initiation. After the first chase run I could see how annoying it looked to try and follow him. Him being that slow in the lead should def be accounted for by the judges. 2 seconds slower on a 25 second run is insane
This is legendary.. against all odds during this event and you still managed to get to top 4.. your team put together a completely new chassis before the next event.. and you podium.. good to see that 1% show up at Evergreen. 🍻
RIP blue e36 ...... glad you are okay man that was a rough crash and after all issues you killed it anyway cant wait to see the update about this and see what the plans are for this one
Look I’m not taking anything away from minowa that kid kills and I could never be as good as him.. but do you think you hit his tire because he doesn’t put a lot of angle and his leads are usually a lot slower.. that’s what it looked like to me.. you were trying to put it in the pocket and he had no angle so your front tire hit his back tire instead of falling into the pocket.. plus his speed not being as fast as everyone else. But that being said I guess it was on you because you were in chase and spos to mimic the lead not Mack the lead lol
I'm genuinely curious if this is partly due to his Sim racing training excessive left foot braking to keep the car Endzone and controllable where is most of the American FD drivers adjust toe and tire pressure to adjust angle and grip so they can run faster and more angle in the zones
@@supraman.91 just curious I know nothing about Sim drifting but can you explain why a Sim drifter would left foot break more instead of adjusting alignment in the sim?
@@Anon.G depending on what is Sim setup is as well as the parameters of the game itself even with it being a simulator it can get close to mimicking real life and the proof is in the pudding the kid has definitely proven that time and time again with the amount of hours he puts in in the results he has at every event but there could be slight differences to how the car handles in game and it's basically a muscle memory for him once on track in real life and adjusting some of the settings on the game to make the car behave properly where he might not have to left foot brake could make the car misbehave in other ways that are not characteristic to how his car actually drives when it comes to initiating or transitioning again this is all speculation but I've seen so many comments talking about his slower lead time and time again at every event and excessive left foot braking which are all legal in the FD rule book he's not doing anything wrong it's a different style than what we typically see from majority of people competing in FD here in the states I don't think he's doing anything wrong and it is the job of the chase driver to mimic the lead drivers movement even if they are not running the best line and regardless of style and at those speeds and the blind trust you have to have with your competitor to expect them to be in the right place at the right time during transitions through the blinding Smoke field of view it can throw your timing a bit off it's just a genuine curiosity of if his type of style is more nature or nurture is that his natural driving style or is that a driving style that he developed because he had only access to train on a simulator and it became a muscle memory to make the car behave a certain way in game that translated over to how he drives in real life
seeing it come off the tow truck had me in my feels. been awesome to see you progress since you picked that thing up. some of the best drifting content on the internet has to be you at clutch kickers when it had the 1jz
So glad you’re okay man! Keep your head up! Definitely a bummer dude but the fact you are okay is the main thing! On to bigger and better things brother ❤
You should do a tribute video of that e36 from the first time you got it to where you were killing it like a beast! I started to follow you beceause of that positive attitude, you take it when you make a mistake you never try to put it on something, you are always positive and that's inspiring. Stay as you are, build, and come back stronger!
I’m no scumbag for skimming, i just have work in 20 minutes😂 Love the new team jersey, and a chasis swap is always possible. We love and appreciate you Adam!!
I loved that car! When I first started following you here on TH-cam, you drove a lot with the e36. A lot has happened to the car since then! now it really is a drift monster of the highest level! I know that you and your team can fix the car if you want, it would be nice to see the e36 live on. If not, I at least hope that there will be more e36s just like it in the future!
been a LONG time since bmx clips and adam defiantly still has it!!!!! them tailwhip 180 to 180 bar spin out, and tail 180 with the backwards manual fucking FIREEEEEE
made me shed my tears seeing the e36 getting that much damage. I've been watching you since you drove the e36 in Klutchkickers event few years ago. That car really do have a lot of memories for a long time so it's really sad to see it got totaled. I'll pray that you'll get the car running in Irwindale round. Love from Malaysia!
As someone that wrecked the whole front end of their car semi-recently, I agree with Owen. The car ain't done. You can save the front end a good bit with a frame machine to see how much metal work will be needed. I got a whole front clip for my car and just need to do exactly this. I'm glad you're OK and have plans for the e36, I believe in a revival to join the other compound e36s
Really glad that you are okay man, very bummed about probably my favorite car that you have and all the competition it had, from building it for masters to fd and smashing everyone, hope you get her going again, cheers!
Adam do not be bumed out you were having fun enjoying the drifting unlike when you were in the Mustang. It will all come together in the end and there are Tons of parts still good if you need to transition into another chassis. Look at it this way more epic content to share with us LOL😅
Glad to see you ok after that crash Adam. Sorry to see the car so hurt, hopeful it can live on some way. It was weird that it was emotional to see the car coming off the tow truck like that I cant imagine what is was like for you. KEEP SENDING
I’m at least 10 years too late for the LZBMX era. But I’m all for a BMX sesh in your videos! And also, the foreshadow of the wall is insane. Rough way to end a round (season?) but you KILLED it this season.
“I love walls now” this aged well😅
Dudee 😂😂😂😂 i was thinking the same! I was like dooooooont say it Adam im from the future!
hahaha yulp... thinking the same thing!

@@rceps4999 He could fix it, put it back to stock and sell it. It would still be in a better shape than 90% of the E36 you see :D

Finish the season with S15. This has been the best driving weve seen from you would love to see you finish
I was thinking the same thing, but they probably won’t have the time to get that car up and ready
He’s dogshit and you’re pretending he isn’t. Glad he’s out. Everyone is safer for it
Literally my thought process. If that motor & trans is good still, put that shit in the S15 and ball out with the Blitz 03s again

honestly my favorite yt vid I've ever watched
Bro honestly ben coming over ans saying congrats after thr car troubles and how humble he is honestly is badass yall both gave it your all ben is never sad always optomistic
bro people were hating on ben and his girl like crazy in the live stream which is sad tbh but some people are just like that, ben seems like a decent guy and a good driver so props
@@dangercollthe "hate" twords sunny (Ben's gf) is because right after adam had a big hit they panned over to her smiling and cheering
@@malachigrogan7384Yeah I wouldn't want any drivers to ever crash not even my worst enemy! That just just shows the trashy person she is I feel bad for Ben!
@@malachigrogan7384 hate's still not deserved.. if it was your SO driving and you knew their opponent made a mistake that could have handed your SO a win anyone else would be cheering as well, that's racing. people will use anything as an excuse to try and crap on some one and it's pathetic. but seeing how Ben is suffering just as much as Adam and even James at times who has 18 years of experience their first year just proves how huge the learning curve is with that chassis.
@@sirmonkey1985 ...never said it was deserved... ik why she was smiling. It ment ben could move on to the 16. Butttttt it was really bad timing to be shown on camera doing that. Not saying it was deserved just bad timing
As someone who has been watching since this car made its first appearance on the channel it hurts so much thinking it might just be done😢, I’m sure it dwarfs in comparison to Adam and his whole team. Bottom line rubbing is racing and this car and what your team has been able to accomplish with it has brought so much inspiration and passion to a lot of young drivers and maybe a lot of veteran drivers as well. Glad your safe and not injured, can only build back better from here✌️
Watched the crash live, glad you're okay, but it sucks to see the car totalled
That would have been wild to see in person
It's a real shame to see your best FD season end like this. But where there's no risk, there's no gain. As you say it's a game with fire and if we look at motorsport as a whole then drifting is certainly one of the sports with a higher risk of accidents. Hopefully the whole drivetrain didn't suffer too much from the crash. Another bit of experience gained, even if it's certainly not the kind of experience you want to have. Now focus on RIGA BABY!
The risk factor adds excitement for sure (adding walls in OZ1) but like others have said, those walls should be flat to prevent cars from going airborne, right? Like that just seems too risky imo.
@@ModMyRide Yes, flat walls are definitely safer. Hopefully FD is aware of this and will change it for 2025 or even for upcoming rounds this year. If there will be further changes of this kind on other tracks. I definitely liked the new wall in T1.
So thankful youre safe and well. Thats the most important above all. This car has such a place in our hearts. Hope to see it revived in some lesser capacity. She deserves it for all shes been through
Watched this E36 build from the very start sad to see it go out like this so many good memories but I’m glad you’re ok
i mean as a drift car i would have expected a crash of a replacement for sum newer
So glad to see you still rip on the BMX. I started watching you way back then and I haven’t missed a video since. You are truly an inspiration
Glad your ok. Time to dust off the S15!
One of the very great things Mr. LZ himself teaches us, is that you're still never to old to get down on BMX and keep the flow as much as he does!
I'm glad you walked away from that unharmed man... That was rough.
Sorry to see the car end up like this after all the hard work from you and the entire team that went into it. Hope you all learned a lot and I'm sure the next car will be even better!
Keep it up team. All the best!
You did really well this year. Truly a huge improvement with your driving it's amazing. I hope to see you one year be able to fully commit to a FD season or even drift masters and win the entire thing! Thank you for the amazing performance you put on for us this season.
I’m happy to see Adam having fun in FD and was so motivated to keep going to more rounds. Sucks this is likely the end of the 2024 season but I’m hoping this means a full 2025 season and likely a brand new chassis or maybe using the white car.
S15 in Seattle. She just needs some sauce
Literally still has the engine and stuff from the e36 too
The lead run before the wreck was insane! Bumper on the wall the whole time and snappy transitions. Life may have taken the car but you still have your skill and life. Good on ya Adam.
Damn dude. I’ve watched you from almost the start and the evolution over everything is crazy. I love that e36 so can’t imagine how gutted you are about it. But you’re safe and healthy and that’s way more important. Just rebuild another for us to enjoy seeing you win
Tearing up at that ending. We are all just glad you are okay. That e36 will live in our hearts forever.
I also teared up.
Yeah that was brutal. Thankfully he has an amazing team behind him. Just glad everyone was okay
This video is sad because we know how it ends (because of the title and the fact that we saw it first on IG, lol), but it's so cool to see you keep getting better and better at FD! If you hadn't crashed, you probably would've podiumed again. Oh well, all that matters now is that you're okay!
That car been rowdy since the 1.5jz days😢
Ok now lets go win drift masters. Keep up the good work Adam
THANK YOU ADAM!!! LOVED the FD run this YEAR!!!! Please do it again next year, YOU got this!!!!!
Got to love the riding parts - ramp riders for the win
Adam gon build an even crazier E36 than his "DRIFT MASTERS" full carbon chassis. The year of flex never stops
Carbon would be terrible for drifting.. panels would be constantly needing to be replaced
@@poolix1his euro driftmasters e36 is full carbon kevlar though?
@@ryanswagyes it is, full carbon kevlar not only carbon....
@@poolix1 They make carbon mix panels that do not break. Lauri Heinonen for example.
@@fabiomachado3275 this is true i agree, but neither of their comments said fiber they just said “carbon”
Rip blue e36. I was shocked to see you back out there in top 32. 37:36 “ready to total my car” man predicted that since top 32
You were shocked to see him in 32?
@@cobratunerafter the first crash couldn’t see what was damaged
Drove crazy well this event, sucks that it's going to get shadowed by the crash but good job man super proud of how far you've come.
man your mindset is so good, actually i learn a lot of things only by watching your videos1 you never know who you are inspiring, soo keep going and go do big stuff Adam! :)
Time to put that e46 m3 chassis you have to use
I bet that's where he goes, he's a beamer boy at heart
Oh ye e46 could be the way if he still has that bare chassis
It was amazing seeing this car compete this season. Ever since the Cream S13 days, it's been all improvement, learning, crashing rebuilding and doing better than before. Despite the result of the Blue E36, I'm super glad you opted to really get into comp this season more than you had planned. It really showed how competitive you actually are when you're in a chassis that works for you. Keen to see what the future holds!
Where is the improvement? Paying your way into fd to be their cash cow isnt impressive
@@ponyboyjl13You're just jealous 🤣
@@ponyboyjl13He isn't their cash cow... You only talk shit because you're jealous that you're a loser
@@aftrnoon_ac why would I be jealous of an international embarrassment?
@@ponyboyjl13Imagine making up lies...
Tough break, glad you're ok. The way minowa was driving was extremely dangerous. (right wrong or indifferent, it was absolutely dangerous)
That sucks man! Glad no injuries! Keep pushing it and moving forward!
I am loving watching you compete in FD! Awesome job guys!
Don’t forget Drift Masters as well. I hope he competes next year in both as well
RIP E36 but really glad you are okay.
E36 next to the pool table time
This could be cut up and turned into a sim rig. 😮
Adam we love you broski. Dust off the s15 and get it ready or transfer everything to another e36. But please finish this season you can do it. Dont let this keep for going harder. Dont want you to regret it in the future. I know it sucks i cant even imagine. But stay strong and you got an amazing team that will back you up. Plus you Drift HQ will all the parts you need next door just have keep your tab open 😂.
Hats off to the team, they put in a ton of work on the car in short spans of time, impressive to see them work! I'm glad you're alright, Adam.
Thankful for the team behind the car and that both drivers are good. Glad it wasn’t the new chassis. This one’s been through hell. And as always beautiful shots Mike.
Minowa's slow driving and lack of angle, will become a point of contention at the end of the season.
Edit: funny how some are pretending that I'm not blaming both parties, but only one.
Those of ya'll need to go back to school update your reading comprehension skills.
Lot of people seem to be coming to the realisation that dude sandbags it hella hard whenever he is leading, interesting too see what everyone’s take on it will be as it becomes more and more apparent
Yeah I think that is why he made a podium but he still does have some skill. Just maybe shouldn’t be driving Fd yet
Looks like he slows down. Alot. Even in the crash can see him hit the breaks right before adam hit his rear tore no angle. Looks like he is trying to win by taking people put or making them hit his car and win by default but keeps up with them in chase. With out a problem so yeah I see this being all him. In this crash and not adam. But adam was worn not to fallow close to him do to his sandbaging in the lead
Adam was at fault also, not just the lead driver
Slow lead was pretty ridiculous
I saw this live and it made my eyes water I was so sad for you man.. don’t listen to these haters on the fd chat you were RIPPIN all day and I can’t wait to see how you come back even stronger!
Hahahaha 😂 imagine typing out all that. He’s terrible. If it works out hopefully he doesn’t return
@@ponyboyjl13how do you sit there an say shit like this and feel good about yourself
@@hollow.3798 easily. Honesty is what it’s all about. So How do you?
I wish I gotten the chance to listen to the song “Dupe - Kontrolla” as I was driving this car 😮😮😮
Are you the guy that sold it to him?
love your content brotha! thank you for inspiring me to push for my racing career! long road ahead
So glad you are okay, Made impressive content. You TH-camrs always taking it to the extremes.
If anyone can remember where and how LZ got this car it has served him well , that was some of the best driving I think you’ve done in fd
It is amazing how much he has improved this year alone
Could you swap the motor into the s15 to finish out the season?
Bumper budget, Adam:hold my Brezzy, ........................"Chassis budget"
58:56 "You landed the multiplier." gave me a chuckle lol
Such a bummer, glad that you are OK, sad way to go out, but hopefully we see you on the track in no time. Cheers for a great show, respect brother!!!
Sim boy tapped the brakes in my opinion seeing the the lights on his front windshield. So that fact that’s he’s a left foot rider and drifts 2seconds slower shows he needs to step up his game and get off the sim.
Fr it was def a combo of Adam sending it in a bit too hard and then the kid botching his initiation. After the first chase run I could see how annoying it looked to try and follow him. Him being that slow in the lead should def be accounted for by the judges. 2 seconds slower on a 25 second run is insane
Just take the S15 to the next rounds.
Mannnn 💔💔💔 you’ll be back 10x better and next time you’ll be on podium 🦾🦾
Facts
This is legendary.. against all odds during this event and you still managed to get to top 4.. your team put together a completely new chassis before the next event.. and you podium.. good to see that 1% show up at Evergreen. 🍻
RIP blue e36 ...... glad you are okay man that was a rough crash and after all issues you killed it anyway cant wait to see the update about this and see what the plans are for this one
Look I’m not taking anything away from minowa that kid kills and I could never be as good as him.. but do you think you hit his tire because he doesn’t put a lot of angle and his leads are usually a lot slower.. that’s what it looked like to me.. you were trying to put it in the pocket and he had no angle so your front tire hit his back tire instead of falling into the pocket.. plus his speed not being as fast as everyone else. But that being said I guess it was on you because you were in chase and spos to mimic the lead not Mack the lead lol
I'm genuinely curious if this is partly due to his Sim racing training excessive left foot braking to keep the car Endzone and controllable where is most of the American FD drivers adjust toe and tire pressure to adjust angle and grip so they can run faster and more angle in the zones
@@supraman.91 just curious I know nothing about Sim drifting but can you explain why a Sim drifter would left foot break more instead of adjusting alignment in the sim?
@@Anon.G depending on what is Sim setup is as well as the parameters of the game itself even with it being a simulator it can get close to mimicking real life and the proof is in the pudding the kid has definitely proven that time and time again with the amount of hours he puts in in the results he has at every event but there could be slight differences to how the car handles in game and it's basically a muscle memory for him once on track in real life and adjusting some of the settings on the game to make the car behave properly where he might not have to left foot brake could make the car misbehave in other ways that are not characteristic to how his car actually drives when it comes to initiating or transitioning again this is all speculation but I've seen so many comments talking about his slower lead time and time again at every event and excessive left foot braking which are all legal in the FD rule book he's not doing anything wrong it's a different style than what we typically see from majority of people competing in FD here in the states I don't think he's doing anything wrong and it is the job of the chase driver to mimic the lead drivers movement even if they are not running the best line and regardless of style and at those speeds and the blind trust you have to have with your competitor to expect them to be in the right place at the right time during transitions through the blinding Smoke field of view it can throw your timing a bit off it's just a genuine curiosity of if his type of style is more nature or nurture is that his natural driving style or is that a driving style that he developed because he had only access to train on a simulator and it became a muscle memory to make the car behave a certain way in game that translated over to how he drives in real life
Bring back the S15!
s15!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He wouldnt be competitive enough in it. Its COMPLETLY different from the e36's hes driving in pro. He should sell it and fund a new US car.
@@cobratunerhmm it’s almost like the engine and fundamental components are usable
@@bmwbuilds6028 So are the parts on the car he just wrecked. What’s your point?
@@cobratuner that’s what I’m saying buddy, good observation.
RIP og BluE36 😢❤ gone but never forgotten
seeing it come off the tow truck had me in my feels. been awesome to see you progress since you picked that thing up. some of the best drifting content on the internet has to be you at clutch kickers when it had the 1jz
really glad your okay adam you did absolutely amazing keep your head up man and just come back stronger and better then ever
So glad you’re okay man! Keep your head up! Definitely a bummer dude but the fact you are okay is the main thing! On to bigger and better things brother ❤
So amazingly put together - glad you're okay!
You should do a tribute video of that e36 from the first time you got it to where you were killing it like a beast! I started to follow you beceause of that positive attitude, you take it when you make a mistake you never try to put it on something, you are always positive and that's inspiring. Stay as you are, build, and come back stronger!
I’m no scumbag for skimming, i just have work in 20 minutes😂 Love the new team jersey, and a chasis swap is always possible. We love and appreciate you Adam!!
The foreshadowing in this is a madness and the hole thing is wall themed until the crash 😢 glad you’re all sound Adam !
So sorry for the E36, glad you are ok. Also loved the BMX park vibes!
I loved that car!
When I first started following you here on TH-cam, you drove a lot with the e36. A lot has happened to the car since then! now it really is a drift monster of the highest level!
I know that you and your team can fix the car if you want, it would be nice to see the e36 live on. If not, I at least hope that there will be more e36s just like it in the future!
been a LONG time since bmx clips and adam defiantly still has it!!!!! them tailwhip 180 to 180 bar spin out, and tail 180 with the backwards manual fucking FIREEEEEE
made me shed my tears seeing the e36 getting that much damage. I've been watching you since you drove the e36 in Klutchkickers event few years ago. That car really do have a lot of memories for a long time so it's really sad to see it got totaled. I'll pray that you'll get the car running in Irwindale round. Love from Malaysia!
As someone that wrecked the whole front end of their car semi-recently, I agree with Owen. The car ain't done. You can save the front end a good bit with a frame machine to see how much metal work will be needed. I got a whole front clip for my car and just need to do exactly this. I'm glad you're OK and have plans for the e36, I believe in a revival to join the other compound e36s
Really glad that you are okay man, very bummed about probably my favorite car that you have and all the competition it had, from building it for masters to fd and smashing everyone, hope you get her going again, cheers!
had a blast seeing you in st louis! glad i was able to see the e36 in all its glory. had some really great runs. look forward to seeing you again!
Adam do not be bumed out you were having fun enjoying the drifting unlike when you were in the Mustang. It will all come together in the end and there are Tons of parts still good if you need to transition into another chassis. Look at it this way more epic content to share with us LOL😅
Glad to see you ok after that crash Adam. Sorry to see the car so hurt, hopeful it can live on some way. It was weird that it was emotional to see the car coming off the tow truck like that I cant imagine what is was like for you. KEEP SENDING
Awesome video. Great to see the working of you and the guys. You have an amazing team. Keep up the good work.
I’m at least 10 years too late for the LZBMX era. But I’m all for a BMX sesh in your videos!
And also, the foreshadow of the wall is insane. Rough way to end a round (season?) but you KILLED it this season.
