The season is over and it's time to get you guys up to speed on what has been going on behind the scenes here at Drift Games. As you may have seen, Dave has left his commentary position at Drift Masters after an amazing season. Why did he leave? Well, this video answers that question...
Thank you guys for all your support in 2024! We have some exciting times ahead...

Congratulations on such a dramatic comeback Dave and I wish you the best of luck in accomplishing your goals by the end of 2024 🤞🏻🚗💨
Keep chasing your dreams Dave and I can’t wait for the drift games HQ
Drift games HGTV drift garage build!!!!
Go get them everyone the year has not beaten you down onwards and upwards bring it on Dave and all at drift games
Let’s go boys! ❤
❤️
Massive respect to Drift Games for their incredible passion and dedication to the car culture. As someone who runs a car club, Modified Syndicate, I see firsthand how your influence inspires car clubs and the next generation of enthusiasts alike. Keep pushing the limits and setting the standard for what it means to truly live the automotive lifestyle!
I’m a48 yr old. What you are going to attempt is what older car guys like myself would be willing to do if we could. It’s not in the cards for me in this life. But it is for you. I’m fully supporting this endeavor no matter the outcome. Let’s strap in and see how far you can take this ! Let’s go Dave !!!!!
It's never too late. I started racing cars at 49 years old and I've got a wall full of trophies, a great bunch of people I've met along the way and I'm raring to go for next season when I turn 60.
@@adematthewsracing awesome
I’m 33 and feel old but I still hope I can start racing some day
What’s he trying to do? I’m not watching this crap
@@JoeBleaux69 why are you here? Go play outside .
Selfishly I don't like your decision to quit commentating Drift Masters, because you and Ian are the best duo there is, and I had hoped to listen to that for many years to come.Good though that you pursue your dreams.
Thank you for all the great commentary, best of luck with the new plans and above all, thank you for your inspiration on perseverance. That is most special to me. 🙏
Same :(
Thanks for the update! Drift Games has certainly grown into more than just Dave and Josh talking about cars in a shed. Were a family now. A freakin huge one at that. DG is a part of the culture. Car builds, partnerships, product, in freakin video games, and now a team in Driftmasters. Yall have definitely helped me get through some low times even by putting up a video to bring enjoyment even for just a small part of the day. Its crazy to think how much has happened since the fire and how much bigger DG has become. Your voice in DM Dave always brought another level of laughs and excitement and you forsure also helped grow it to what it is. Im stoked to see the drift team continue to progress. We Will NEVER Give Up. Lets freakin GO!
That means a lot ❤️
I really hope to see Ryusei and Falvey back for 2025
C'mon sponsors pull through! (And hopefully they wanna come back too)
This has been my favorite channel to follow this year. I've been watching LZ and Oakes for years but ended up following D.G. a little over a year ago and to see what they have been thru has been amazing, heart-wrenching, heartwarming, funny at times, but very real. I'm not a drifter, but I deeply enjoy the sport and the content it provides. Dave, I'm so excited to see you compete, we've seen you drive with some of the best in the world and hold your own. There is no doubt you're going to crush it!! To the rest if the crew, I'm proud to see you all come back after the fire and stay true to your brand. That's some true friendship.
Its sad to see you leave drift masters because it wont be the same without you but keep activing the goals you have set dave, you inspire me to keep my love of drifting alive❤️
Thanks for keeping us up to date, we do care and want to see you rise from the ashes, literally and figuratively. Much respect and love.
Drift games inspired my friend and me to start are own team hopefully starting this spring. I have never really drifted excepted on a sim and my partner has a e32 and is a excellent mechanic. keep doing dope stuff
Go for it!
I honestly knew for the last 4-5 videos that you were leaning into this direction. You have all the means to get into it, why not take advantage of it? Only a fool with your knowledge and ambition wouldn't.
I look forward to seeing you trying to combat all the challenges (and struggles)
Wish you all the luck!!
Let it be part of your own consideration. Talent is one thing and it'll take you far. But hard dedicated work and commitment is what take you those last steps up. It opens up for everything you have already acheived and that is one hell of a platform to take the next step from. Keep up the good work mates
You deserve way more views!
Took me a while to get around to sitting down and watching this but still want to say this is exciting!
Not only for the future of Drift Games but I'm really looking forward to seeing Dave taking drifting seriously. There's been moments of magic through out the years and some bits of really good driving, I think consistency and a conscious effort to improve will make a huge difference.
Best of luck, can't wait to see more!
I AM LEGITIMATELY EXCITED FOR EVERYTHING! This channel is one I look forward to every post! I love Drift Games! ❤
Falvey and Egan combo for 2025. It's a good story of a teen and a close to middle aged drifter trying to meet at the same point of excellence. What you have in experience he has in youthful reflexes and lack of fear. Love it
Some Dave and Jimmy joining the Shanahans in Scotland for some seat time?
Love it Dave, go for it.
Not sure I agree on the fire not defining your year.. I think it did but in that it lead to all the amazing things that have happened since. The devastation it brought you didn't define your year but you were shown how much you mean to people and the support they have for you from all over the world.
Really lookin forward to the new gaff.
The fire was the Phoenix they rose from and came back stronger and more focused.
Well said completely agree 👍
I started watching you guys back when you started game changers. Building those cars and you and Josh jumping into pro drifting really was the most entertaining and it feels like it’s happened again to an extent. Can’t wait to see you jump in and compete!!!!
Massive respect to you Dave. You have done so much for the irish car scene and the whole world of drifting.
You have given your life to the sport and it is about time you live the dream that you have helped so many others to live.
Best of luck to you and the team you guys all deserve the best. TEAM DRIFT GAMES❤❤
Egan & Falvey DMEC 2025. It needs to be! So excited to see what happens in 2025!
Man Ryusei is a good dude, gotta run all 3 cars!
I also hope they keep Ryusei 🏁🤙🏻
ryusei is good just learning it would be such a shame to throw him out
as someone who found your videos because of the fire, I've been a massive fan of the content and the commitment to never give up, i just wish i had started watching you guys years ago. I'm currently starting my own custom bike build business and taking the same mind set. cant wait for 2025
Lets go! Driving Dave for 2025! Cant wait to see the new HQ come to life and excited to see the new projects you have planned.
I've only been following your channel since the fire, and the way you all bounced back and didn't give up - 'Never give up!' - was incredible.
Looking forward to seeing the new HQ come together over the coming months.
Concentrating on the driving is a good move - looking forward to the progression series of vids.
Keep her lit Dave!!
Mystery bag ordered! Love this! I can't wait to see videos of you learning how to drift better and teaching us along the way! I've always wanted to slide, and you're an inspiration to help me go for it as well!
Thank for the wonderful opportunity, a very very good vlog, in life it not try , its do, go and get enjoy while doing so, looking forward to seeing you getting there. Blessings and big hugs. Waiting on the edge of my seat to see the H Q come to life !!!!!!
I remember meeting you at the paddocks in Poland this year and asking you when are you going to drive pro?
And you said “indeed, maybe it’s time to put my money where my mouth is”.
Best of luck, can’t wait to see your journey. You’re a huge inspiration 👏👏👏
Your commentary will surely be missed ! It’s going to be great see you driving wish you best of luck 🤞
The amount of passion and honesty in this video is insane. MASSIVE respect for not giving up. Wearing my Drift Games T with pride today, and just excited to see where things go for you all. Dave, you're gunna smash it in the driving side of things I can see it. Just keep your heads up through the highs and the lows and LET'S GO!!!
Dave, you and the lads are my heros! I'm an old car guy that makes a feeble attempt at car and travel content (BackroadsandRustHoles), and y'all are such an inspiration! It's guys like you, Jimmy, and Adam that keep me trying to grow. You get knocked down, but you don't give up...and you bring your friends with you! Youve all built from nothing, and now you're living the car guy dream! I don't care what you post, I'll be watching and cheering from the mountains of Tennessee! Can't wait to see where you go from here! Never give up!
Very excited for the upcoming projects. Looking forward to seeing all the builds. You guts inspire me to improve and move forward to achieve my goals
Chasing the dream should always be respected ❤ You’re already a giant in the drift community,you and Ian’s voice represented European drifting to me,it’s gonna be weird without your voice next season but looking forward to see you succeed with the goals you’ve chased! YOU CAN DO IT 🤙
I love to hear you calling drift events. But I love even more to see you chase your dreams! I believe in you, and I know you can be successful. Apply everything that has prepared you for these moments! Good luck!
Dave my guy, I'm behind everyone over there in the drift games family. Right now I just got out of the hospital from fracturing my back and I'm going to be on bed rest for the next 6 months but hey, I'll be along for the ride no matter what you guys do. Keep chasing your dreams. You're going to crush it.
Dave I enjoyed watching you drift that crazy supra at LZ world tour and you were 🔥.. All the best mate.
Absolutely love this. I'm not a big drift person, but you guys are such a big inspiration. The way you do things, the quality of content you make, the attitude, the enthusiasm, it's amazing. As someone trying to make their way as a content creator, if I could achieve 10% of what you guys have done, I'd be pretty happy. Can't wait to see what you do next.
Way to go Dave! Honestly Drift Games has become my favourite YT channel! Keep it up cant wait to see whats in store! ❤
What an awesome opportunity go for it! Looking forward to seeing practice days and sim sessions.
Perfect timing as my own build nears completion for operation seat time! Lesser scale but from having to daily drive my drift cars 15 years ago it’s now a second car I don’t need to use to get to work so can learn without fear of the Monday commute requirement 😂
Dealing with big changes in my life while I'm going to school, already stressed but enjoy winding down watching the vids no matter what
Got my mystery bag today and Im thrilled with it. Couldnt have chosen better gear. I love what ye do and always look forward to more. Well done lads
I would never say 2024 was the year of the fire, because of that incident I found the channel and have watched pretty much every video since then. You guys having a passion for something and being resilient to keep going and rebuild after that is what made 2024. Even if you don't get to finish the new HQ at the end of the year, you accomplished more in half a year then most do in ten years. It is nice to see good people do good in life, thank you for the great content.
I love this video. Thank you for opening up and sharing. It's inspiring!
I'm so happy to hear you guys got a building!! YOU'RE an inspiration for putting yourself out there and giving it your all! You got this, man!
From being a fellow Nankang driver many years ago
I’m absolutely buzzing for you guys!!
Bring it all on!!
Good on you, I often wonder this same thing. I'll be watching intently and rooting for you!
I think I speak for everyone when I say that we would love to have a series based on your progression thru out drifting. Some people would probably be jalous by the fact that you already have an amazing team behind you, some great sponsors and also the opportunities available to be on Drift Masters.. But from your fans stand point we're just happy that we're one of the many reasons why you and your team has come to this point. From a business stand point I have no clue if it would be a profitable series but your hundreds of thousands of fans are more than excited for you and are willing to support you thru every step to the top!
There is no doubt that you will achieve your dreams as a driver. More seat time, less distraction, as you said, you will get there. Can't wait to see the new clubhouse rise!
we will always support yall all the way from Michigan USA yall are the kindest nicest ppl i swear keep up the great work and follow those dreams !!
I applaud you're honesty tbh it's refreshing to see and hear let's see how far you can chase you're dreams
YOU WILL NEVER KNOW UNTILL YOU TRY IT.. YOU HAVE AN AMAIZING PEOPLE AND TEAM BEHIND AND WE ALL KNOW YOU WILL MAKE IT...MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT FROM CROATIA..❤
I'm excited for the boys an your mental health! The resilience you lot have shown this year is inspiring more than you'll ever know. Good luck fella.
I just want to see the progression, it looks like it’s going to be a wild ride and I’m glad you are going to be doing what you want to do and dreamed of doing for years, bring it on
I can't wait to see where this team goes! Drift games has relight my interest in all those 90s shitboxs I dreamed of having. Being a new viewer, it's awesome to see such genuine appreciation and kindness in sharing your deep knowledge of irish drifting and jdm stuff. It's blown my mind.
I very much appreciate the honesty and transparency. It's so refreshing.
Dave with the pure love and passion you have for anything to do with cars and drifting, you can and will succeed at whatever it is you put your mind and heart into, we the fans will follow you and have full faith in you brother, go drift the shit out that supra!!! Lets go drift games

Much love from the USA! Can't wait to see the new shenanigans the crew gets up to in the new HQ. Get out there and prove you got it Dave, not just for the fans but for yourself!
Follow your dream brother. Enjoy your process and know everything has an end and a beginning. Enjoy your new beginning. From TEXAS🇺🇸
I can’t wait for the new shop video see what u guys been cooking up behind the scenes and the renovating videos and I think u have the potential to be a pro driver!
Wow !! Dave you are such an inspiration to young and old (me 53 Aussie boy ) i cannot wait to see you and the team grow from where you started from with massive hurdles along the way !
Keep kicking on and chin up 💙
That's a man of courage right there. That's a man everybody wishes to be more like. Respect and good luck chasing your dream Dave.
I was at Lz worldtour Montreal this years and you are a beast a commentary and entertaining the crowd live at the event, i will miss you ! But good luck with the drifting and i will follow that for sure !
Love this channel, keep the progress going, gonna miss you in Drftmasters but cant wait to see you competing there one day!!!
best of luck man, yes you guys have had a hard year, but also a great year, heads high lads you're all amazing inspirational people keep doing what ur doing!
Super stoked for the future of drift games and you’re going to kill it as a driver Dave! Also I needed that pep talk at the end mate, been down and feeling like a failure as the past few years my life and careers turned to shit, been wanting to get up and try something new but idk hearing you at the end there gave me a bit of pep in my step! Keep it up you bunch of gangsters 🙌🏽
hell yea - I started rally crossing 2 years ago - went from DFL to mid pack - I dont have natural talent but like you I can apply and learn anything. makes me wanna keep my series going next year as I try to hit a podium in a 2wd with a RW- aint nothing like doing it the hard way
Let’s do this!!! Dave you have got this and you have the starting of the raw skill watching all lives. Bro all it is time you have this. So excited for you and the team
I could not click the like button hard enough. What a very real and inspiring video. I wish you the best of luck on your journey and I am excited to see your progress
Loving the ambition from Dave. Best of luck in all your endeavours with your awesome team.
You got this Dave! Looking forward to seeing all the new stuff develop as you head down this new road
Nothing but respect to you lads. The motivation is always there, much love!
I dont have any things i Wish to see on the Channel, the best thing is that you always surprises us with new funny and some stupid ideas and yes i talk partly of the nascar build, love it!
All your videos have made me look so much more into the sport drifting!
So much that i have been working and Saving money to build my first ever drift car soon, its not the best,most expensive but it Will do the work
And the motivation speak about your career as commentator and want to become a driver hits right in the heart!
I hope i Will be able to travel to Watch one round of the best drift series in the world
Keep up the good work and NEVER GIVE UP!
I'm most excited about seeing you work on your drifting. As someone who competes in slot car racing, what I can tell you from my experience is that there's no thrill quite like chasing your first win - every little improvement is something worthy of celebration. And eventually, you'll get lucky, you'll get that win almost gifted to you. It'll feel great at the time. But then, if you're like me, you'll go through a drought, you'll struggle to see how you can do things different, how you can taste victory again. And then, when you've almost given up, it'll happen again. Then again. Then again. And something will click: the reason you struggled so much to replicate that first success, is you put a lot of pressure on yourself, and crushed yourself under the weight of your own expectations. It became work, instead of fun. Don't crush yourself under your own expectations - just go out there, and have fun. When you're having fun, when you're not putting pressure on yourself, you're able to perform at your best - because you're loose, you're relaxed, you're living in the moment. And that's when you're in the zone, when everything is happening in slow motion, when nothing else matters but the moment you're in, and the turn ahead, or the car beside you. Chase the zone, not the success.
Huge repest for you and your team. Can't wait to see what is coming
Mr Dave Egan, you’re brilliant to listen to. I hope you do grab that chance to go driving because we are all behind you 🇮🇪 can’t wait 2025 and seeing where DG goes. All the best
Been waiting to see this kind of content, sounds amazing.
You guys are my inspiration especially you David Egan!! I am so delighted for you and and your team!! I for one am all for this! I have always been watching your views increasing for the past few years so this is the best decision you could have made!! The popularity of guys is already there with Adam lz and jimmy so it is only upwards for here!! I hope to see you guys make it proper big on TH-cam very soon
Happy for you Dave. Looking forward to seeing your driving progress and yes you can make it to pro
Major respect to you guys for continuing to push. I’m sure all of us would love to see you guys rebuild bigger and better
im looking forward to the new HQ build vlogs. The funny, the successful, the difficult aspects of it. The planning and the final state and which new ideas you come up with :)
Amazing video. Fair play to you. Follow your dream. I wish I had these opportunities. You gotta grab it and take it when you can!
Thanks for being such awesome commentator. Your nonbiased talking was so enjoyable, some commentators try to feed too much of their own opinions and i hate that. Thank you.
I support all the decisions because yall inspire me everyday 👍
I stand by this 10000% dude. You and your team has done so much for the sport. Now it's your turn to have some fun!
You've got more than enough talent to pull it off Dave, you just need the seat time and our support and you can do anything! Much love from Canada!!!
Dave for everything you’ve done for the sport there’s nobody more deserving to do well driving in it !! You will certainly have the biggest fan base !! Everyone I know will be routing for you !!
Great video bud, wish i could be in your shoes. Good luck with your journey. These oppertunities dont come often to many people. I would love to give it a go.
Doubt is the #1 dream killer!
You've made it this far Dave, proving anything' is possible. Keep going! Chase those dreams
Hell yeah ypu got my support for sure , even im gonna start drifting next summer , i just hope if lz world tour comes back to mirabel Canada you will be there i missed you this summer
14:20s hit home! Overcoming odds ❤
Great stuff boys! Amazing to see the bounce back and the different types of videos going forward with the warehouse build!
I'm so proud of you guys! from day dot! i said, rise from the ashes like a Phoenix, and that you have done. congratulations to you and the team Dave!
Yes man, i am waiting to see you drive man! You got everything to make it happen!
I knew it! right that moment when I saw the post in Facebook about your career in drift masters ending! so happy for this, looking forward for it!
I'm excited for Drift master 2025 to see the driver lineup, I also immediately bought a bag when you mentioned it in the video. Given I live in the states the bag is going to make a journey to get here lol. Can't wait for off season content and watching the new spot be built.
This video is exactly why the channel, the events, and the Drift Games brand continues to gain the respect and recognition it absolutely deserves! Your "warts and all" approach is only half of it. It's the fact that at your core, the team absolutely matches the soul of drifting - which is a group of mates, with little or no ego, thinking "I know it's mad, but wouldn't it be cool if we did..."
Know we're bloody proud of how far you'v come, and we can't wait to see what the next chapter has in store! 🤟
You saying if it's hard and it's scary it's probably the right thing to do. That hit home with me in a way that not much has this year. After losing everything a few years back. My house, my mom, and my grandma. It has been a battle to get to any kind of thing that looks like a future. Drifting has always been a big part of my life. My mom would watch all the events with me. This year a lot happened and changed from health issues to starting a new life experience. It is all scary but I keep telling myself I have to push forward. Seeing you keep going through the hard times and keep being positive has made a world of difference for me. I will miss you commentating. But I look forward to watching you drive.
❤️ it will all come good in time
We all have to start somewhere, and the way you get anywhere is to take the plung, you will never know if you never go so you do you and us as fans will be there supporting you.
