Really cool to see this build coming together! It's great to see how these FD cars are built in a more "vlog" type of way. Really shows how much work goes into every piece of this car. I'm sure we all cant wait to see it sideways next year!
I didn't realize how much work Matt puts in on his own car. Mad props. There will be some FD drivers that aren't ready for this animal haha. Cannot wait!
I've heard that for FD an RB series engine isn't ideal because in the US parts are extremely scarce for them, which of course isn't great for a professional drifting competition where your car is getting pushed to the max. You could end up spending a lot more money on an engine that, yes, may be legendary, but for a competition where you need ease of parts and consistent reliability, an LS, JZ or SR would be better.
Got it, makes sense. For some reason I didn't think big teams have to worry about parts availability. I guess that's why FD is dominated by LS and JZ! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯:
Yea pure magnesium is bad for road cars since they fatigue and corrode fast. Stuff in cars for sure is some kind of alloy that probably doesn't burn like you think, but I could be wrong.
Awesome build and very informative. Extra motivation for my build! Also just btw anyone, can someone help me find the music playing in the background @2:00 -ish?
So this is just guessing job? Are you guys doing some engineering job? Not that it won't work, but it would be nice to see some really good technical job
Im loving this series and how it gives us a more in-depth look at how these cars are built

flameflight66 you and me both! Hahaha
This is the best life a rescue vette could ever hope for ...thing is sick.
Matt field is really good at this. edit. At showing how things are built. we all already know he is a really good driver.

Lucas Jones it’s a ton of work that’s forsure! But very rewarding when you toss it right at the wall first lap out at Long Beach
So you're telling me Matt Field works on his own chassis ???? I just gained a whole lot more respect for Field!
Basic Car Guys hahaha yea man, gotta. And thank you
@@mattfield777 Is that 1 3/4 or 1 1/2 tubing?
IM LOVING THESE VIDEOS. So insightful for people who want to do everything by them selves with a few extra hands. Keep up the good work!
By far one of my favorite builds on TH-cam!!!
Badass build makes me want to learn how to fabricate cages
I really liked your approach and starting point to the cage and I love how good your door bars came out I hope to build cages that nice someday
Kacy Wohletz thank you very much man!
SO SICK to see you building your pro drift car
So awesome, I like that fact that it will still have a functioning targa top too.
Yes! Longer Videos!
Great build so far
Ty Donut! Fav driver, new fav series.
This is gonna be a clean build. Excited to see finished result
Sick build
the caging is sick af, I'm hyped to keep seeing the build contineu
Continue*
Yes Matt field! Loving the build it's awesome to watch it as it becomes a beast thanks donut media for the coverage ✌️🇬🇧
cage looks awesome
Badass! So awesome seeing how fast you and your crew are moving this along! #hustle
An RB engine would be nice for the Vette. #RBVette
Not for FD tho
why not?

Yeah unfortunately it is rare to see an RB in FD! But hey ho, at least JZ's and LS' sound mental and make crazy power! haha
Love this series! I cant wait to see more!
Watching this in school!!!
Cool build! Nice to see you working on your own car!
This is so awesome
amazing, thanks for sharing. What a treat
HGK is a good choice :)
You guys got this! 🔥🔥🔥
this c6 is going to turn out hella good like daigos and dirk strattons
I wanna see this thing be in tandems haha!!
Hope you guys are successful in this build
LS 7 Twin turbo with side front fender exhaust. So you are spitting flames into the front of the car following.
Tube factory: how much tube you want?
Matt Field: *Y* *E* *S*
very nice work sir
I love how this is edited
Dennis B donut rules!
This is epic!
12:23 edited out:

Put a viper engine in it :D
V10 baby!!

Thank you for this video, EXCELLENT!!

9:45 even the 240 wants a better look at this beast !
We need donut media merchandise
Nice car 💯❤
I see u guys listening to Marshmello.
#mellogang
Disney its alone
Umm you come here for car content or just EDM music
Diamond Booster No shit
Disney shitty music
That rx2 on the hoist. Do some videos on that.
excellent vid !
Looking forwardaa
Cool video show us that old Mazda
Diggin these videos
MA BOYYYY
Great content, but the shake was unreal man.
Big Gigantic in the background
Stick with an LS, you guys know how to work them because you used them in the 240 right?
A rotary would be cool but the best bet is to just stay LS
Freaking cool
Magnesium roof? What if the car caughts on fire?? Chevy is crazy
JT Suarez it's not just pure magnesium. I think they used magnesium in the rims on the c4 trough c5.
Porsche uses them on seat frames
If the cars on fire you usually get out man
Flammable petroleum fuel? What if it catches on fire!?
Yea pure magnesium is bad for road cars since they fatigue and corrode fast. Stuff in cars for sure is some kind of alloy that probably doesn't burn like you think, but I could be wrong.
will we have a clean camera findout now in Donut Media Drift Corvette Build!!!
seems like an awesome build but too I don't like motion sicknesses
Great
Need to know where to get those safety glasses!
LOVE IR LOVE IT LOVEIT !!!
9:45 Silvia photobomb
Finally a corvette that isn’t being use for drag racing
BIG HOMIE gaming ummmm, corvettes are huge with the HPDE & Auto X guys.
Awesome build and very informative. Extra motivation for my build!
Also just btw anyone, can someone help me find the music playing in the background @2:00 -ish?
Corvette ute when? 😂
What's the best budget friendly tube bender? Me and my buddy making our cages and we want a hydrolic one without getting crazy in prices.
What kind of tubing do you use and where do you source it?
I am inspired
Cant wait this car done 👏🔥
May I speak bout the finish part. I know its to early, but some decals like NASCAR would be (I dont know) cool
Should have done more research, we all remove the oem b-pillar hoop, removed redundant weight and gives more headroom and a higher cage for safety
Legit guys
What's with the RX2 Coupe on the hoist??
What’s up with the rx2 in the background?! 🤔
Looks cool, LS motors were meant to be driven hard!
Try a VR38 swap. It'd surely be something different.
I think you should be swap 1GZE V12
Why not reinforce the car before cutting pieces off? Wont that keep it square?
That welding safety tho
Can someone please tell me what tube bender that is. I NEED IT
Gonna cry 😂
AWD TRANS!!
how can i get a cage to my e36 without removing the back seats (nor the passengers)
sideshowtone head in the background
I watching this in 2020
What's Drift Garage?
SkidmarX-scion86 😂
Leroy?
akumaru327, i was thinking the same thing!
yo were do you get tho's safety glasses ?
Bryce Williams heatwave makes them!
3:30 BRO, dont vape on my bends!
I wanna know what's up with that old Mazda rx car in the background
Wide body?
What colour you doing it
Falken livery with some cool little yellow accents
lol a clean lens
*SHAKECAM*
Also....way better than the hoonigans.....they were "building" a roll cage......and all they did was talk!
Why are the corvette episodes 13 minutes and the Datsun episodes 2 minutes wtf
So this is just guessing job? Are you guys doing some engineering job? Not that it won't work, but it would be nice to see some really good technical job
ttiization this a legit FD car. not some kids in a garage
