Fast N Loud featured some pretty iconic motor masterminds and they looked for timeless cars and bikes from across the country to spin. The show’s stars used to find worn out cars that people no longer used and then, they would work their magic and turn it into something that they can not only sell but also get a lot of profit from it.
This was a super-interesting concept and not a lot of people were into this niche back then so it also had a lot of potential. People instantly hit it off with the show and soon enough, it became a staple for motor pros and novices alike. However, before anyone knew, Fast N Loud disappeared from the spotlight. No one understood what really happened and that’s why we’ll be discovering the rise and fall of Fast N Loud.

Arron Kaufman WAS the show , he had the brains, taste and all of the talent..Richard was a Circus Barker
Kaufman was the only reason to watch the show at all. I hated Richard from the beginning.
Egomaniac. I'm sick of type A personalities. I don't trust people that wear holes in their jeans that came that way from the store.
Or people with tattoos, generally.
What no way
Yes I AGREE!!
Yet his own show turned out very boring.
How to make an 18 minute video feel like an hour. Word salad overload.
Yeah, I'm 3 mins 44 in, and I feel like I'm worn out.
I didn't mean to...Richard Rawlings..creator of this video
This is a great example of how to turn two minutes of YT content into almost twenty minutes.
Hah Hah, thanks for saving my time. Often I read the comments before I even watch a video and this is one of those occasions I can't thank you enough, LOL.
I'm doing a short on this...in fact I started a channel that is nothing but turning TOO LONG videos into 60 sec info vids. I'll link once it's published.
@@AwesomestGreatestMostestFunny Thanks
There’s a lot like this. That’s why the fast forward button is so valuable
And yet we watched all 20 minutes lol ..
We are consumers 😅
Been off the air for 4 years, really hot off the press there fella! All Tv series have a shelf life, the business still going strong
Richard's biggest talents are running his hand thru his hair and talking about himself.
and drinking Beer...
That bar he built was a freaking JOKE. Still like the name Gas Monkey.
@@marcelzwang6320yes don’t Forget that COUNTS CUSTOMS Don’t Do That 👍🏻
I heard he is also a Master baiter... just the guy to have on the fishing boat.
also being a prick!
I wish you could report misinformation and clickbait titles
Wahwah
you can dum dum
Report
Spam & misleading
fkn duh
you can sorta
You can. But youtube doesn't do anything with the reports.
I lost interest in the show once Aaron left. Richard is insufferable. Enough said.
Richard is a self-destructive alcoholic and a jerk.
Ricky the narcissist Arron😎the true ⭐️motor head king
Richard was a used car salesman. Aaron was the talent.
Aaron?
@@janetphillips2875 Yes. Not sure where Andy came from, but I’m definitely gonna blame my smart phone. 🤪
Aaron was/ is a pompous ass. Oh look, another air bag. Smh.
Richard seemed to be more interested in playing around chasing parties, beer and boobs. Aaron lacks the ability to present himself in an exciting manner. They worked well together but mixed like oil and water.
@@janetphillips2875
Yes, Aaron was the guy with the big beard.
Never really liked the show after Aaron left.
Did not like the show with or without Aaron
that idiot ruined an F40 and other classic cars. He was convinced that he was better than Ferrari or Porsche engineers, the other boasted of ripping people off and making them look stupid. I don't understand how no one kicked him before. The only show I save is Wayne Carini's.
same
Me too👏
In my opinion what kills shows like this is first. They are scripted and they’ve been out long enough that everyone knows it. And 2. The shows tend to put way too much emphasis on the people and not enough on the projects which is what attracts car enthusiasts in the first place. Once viewers lose interest in the characters the show is over.
100x this
when you fake reality dont expect love, storage wars is a classic example it was boon for storage companies all across America, units averaged 275 before the show after it units were averaging 600 -people thinking they will find a million dollar locker
HIlarious. Those guys dont make chit buying lockers. Most are junk nobody wants...hoarder thing if you ask me . ANy owner of a locker place would go through the locker before an auction and get anything good...I would!
I was contacted by fast and loud for Knight Rider parts from my fiberglass bussiness. But they ended up just buying a premade kitt car online. So they did have intentions of making the car it seems but they just went for a premade version.
This group of guys ruined so many decent classics it’s criminal
bullshit...Rawlings is still making great content on his channel....he make money that's his goal so don"t be jalouse
How much research did the creator/ writer actually do for this vid? "Spinning cars?" ,didn't just get it wrong once but repeated it every time through the whole video! It's 'flipping cars' Quick Shift. Also when talking about Jordan, I got confused because they got his name right twice, the rest of the time he was referred to as "Jason" and I'm thinking, "Who the hell is this Jason character, Did I miss a whole heap of episodes?" . If you are going to make videos about 'factual' things, at least get the facts right please. And yeah, Aaron leaving was the turning point for the show and the garage I felt.
I really enjoyed the show the first few seasons but then it turned into the same formula each week.
#1: Richard buys project car
#2: Richard does donuts in the parking lot with project car before turning it over to the crew.
#3: They decide to put in a huge V8
#4: OMG will they make the deadline? An argument insues.
#5: Richard takes car out with sunglasses on and explains what you just saw.
They once had a facebook page and asked for suggestions. I suggested that the next time they got a 60's car like a falcon or nova wagon, instead of dropping in a V8 why not drop in one of the newer four cylinders put out by the respective auto makers that make over 300 HP and keep it as stock as possible with upgrades like a vintage air AC and Detroit Steel wheels that looked stock.
I personally would find that cooler than just dropping in a V8
All these shows rehash the same old stuff over and over....
Well that was the whole plan for the show too bad you are to stupid to understand that😂
Richard Rawlings' videos are annoying to watch and listen to. He almost always has to have a beer nearby. Maybe Miller pays him to promote their product. The fake drama on Fast N' Loud got old quick. Richard's friend Dennis Collins is the total opposite personality wise and his Coffee Walk youtube channel is highly entertaining and realistic.
Dennis is a real 'car guy'. Richard is a mean hearted nasty opportunist..
Him and The Cowboys have Something in Common- Miller Lite Beer - right Richard 🤔
Dennis shouldnt associate his name with RR imo.
Still so many post "oh look he doesnt lowball anyone he pays what they ask" are clueless. At least Dennis appears to show a little class. Ive literally chased guys off who showed up trying the "steal a car by lowball" being disrespectful rude etc.
Yeah! True, and everything is "HOLY GRAIL" to Dennis, he's found so many holy grails that there aren't' any HOLY GRAILS left in the world. Thanks Dennis!
The Smokey and the Bandit skit was great, especially Aaron and tFred” in the water
I've heard of "Flipping" cars. I've never heard it called "Spinning."
you are never to old to learn something new
Richard was alright as a host and knew the business side pretty well, but Aaron was really what made the show work. Aaron's skill and knowledge of cars, and better yet, his impeccable taste, is what made their car builds so awesome. I never watched the show for the flipping aspect, which was often dodgy as hell anyway (it always seemed like his friend Dennis bailed him out whenever he couldn't make a decent profit on a car).
The move into the larger garage hurt, mostly because it meant that Aaron was working on individual builds less. It became more about turning cars over for money than about actually spending time on cool, unique builds. It became a factory. No offense to the other talented people who worked there, but the early builds were special mainly because of all the attention and expertise that Aaron gave them. That was no longer possible with the move into the bigger garage.
The restaurant was a huge mistake, and I have no idea why Richard even flirted with the idea of opening one. I'm assuming someone else talked him into it, since he clearly had no clue how to run a restaurant. I stopped watching shortly after they opened it because I didn't watch the show to see them struggle to run a restaurant. It was truly bizarre to me, and completely unwatchable.
When I watched this show the first time... it was the last time.
Same...cant stand RR. Egomaniac, big mouth tries too hard to be cool tough whatever. Needs to give his wife her jeans back.
SAME! I never liked this self loathing gremlin looking dude
Without Kaufman it was nothing.
The "spinning cars" thing got on my nerve sooooooo bad that I looked it up on the internet (yes, i know but I though it might be fun). I found this Wikipedia entry:👩🎓
Spinning is a South African motorsport that involves driving cars at speed in circles and performing stunts in and out of the car. It originated in Soweto in the late 1980s, and was performed as a funeral ritual in which a car was spun around to honor the deceased. It is now a recognized motorsport. 😲
Nothing good ever, ever came out of Soweto.
Spinning (cars) is not a sport,, it's a disease! Just stupid people molesting good cars!
@@Dukiehouse Do NOT get long with dudes like him .Big ego big mouth etc. Overcompensating extraordinaire
The right word should have been flipping cars in this video not spining.
woooooooaaaahhhh, he even graduated high school? holy sh!t. amazing.
Dave Kindig and his crew are second to none.....No one else comes close.
B.S. they have destroyed some real classics over the years.
It’s a show! Amazing how many people thing its reality.
CL flippers try to do the same. Selling rusted out pos for a lot $$...or they try and get a reality check lol. Gave up selling my 67 Camino as almost all inquiries tried to be similar. Low ball, chit talkers, no clue what they were looking at. Timewasters.
It ran it's course. People want new and shiny and move on to the latest craze.
Richard has gone through a ton of ups and, downs but he never lost sight of where he wanted to be and for that I applaud that man. Richard it's a pleasure to watch what you do I love the apparel that I, bought and I fly your flag proudly keep up the great work you deserve everything.
I'm a german. I ADORED the show!!!
Car spinning? What is car flipping trademarked? It's super awkward. Like a sports broadcaster saying a quarterback got hit while pitching the game winning touchdown. Or Hamilton dives to the inside to cut off Max's punch into the corner.
Spinning...sounds rediculous. lol
cringe your way out of the internet or you get canceled out of life
Richard just oozes that sleazy conman vibe right? Or is it just you?
Both guys were necessary, Richard and Aaron. It worked for years and I was addicted to the show. I even liked the misfits. They cracked me up and added levity. They were also necessary ingredients for a diversified friendship team.
But things came down to money profits and time. So the performance had to be tweaked.
But, all in all, great show. I learned a lot from it and I wish them all Godspeed in the next chapters. Yes, Aaron was awesome. And he needed Richard’s push. And Dennis’s money.
Ha.
Watched a few misfit episposes last night. No way a shop with 4 guys could stay afkoat on their profits" unless they had no rent mortgage etc. Even 10-12g a mo dont go far paying overhead and 4 mouths. Not much money in restoring cars.
Personally i thought Richard was an ass, also the prices he was allegedly getting seemed a bit high. and at times some of the people seemed to be there to be comic relief or stupidity in my opinion.
I have to agree. I knew the show was pure BS when I seen them do bare minimum to an old Model A Sedan and then showed it sell for 17 grand. I’ve built Model A’s all my life and if those old cars were going for half what the showed portrays I’d have retired years ago!
This was a really cool show, I even remember calling my dad when I first watched it like 2010, when they were at the old shop and building affordable classic custom cars/restomods, rat rods, cars Like me and dad would take a couple years to build at a price a basic working blue collar type could afford that don't have the time or the garage space to build a custom car. But then they moved into the big garage, started buying Ferraris and stuff that really started losing my interest, and when I saw them make that gas monkey bar and grill, it was just way too big for me to care about anymore. I did recently see how Richard had his own youtube channel and I figured this happened.
Yeah, moving into the big garage was the beginning of the end. Aaron was the heart of the show, and the bigger garage meant they had to bring more vehicles through the shop to maximize the space, which led to Aaron spending less time on each individual project, or ignoring some entirely in order to finish what he was working on. It became a lot less about finding cool cars and doing great builds, and more about turning cars over for profit (which was never a particularly interesting part of the show for me).
Then they did the restaurant. I still have no idea why. All it did was suck time and money away from the garage, and which put the final nail in the coffin of the show. I'm assuming that someone must have talked Richard into it because he doesn't seem stupid enough to jump into the restaurant business on a whim when he knows nothing about how to run a restaurant.
The F40 build was the last build I enjoyed, partly because it's an F40 (possibly the greatest Ferrari ever made), and partly because it was a monumental task that absolutely needed to be done correctly... and they actually pulled it off. However, it was emblematic of the "build creep" that was afflicting the show. It was like the producers kept telling them "We need to top the last build!" All they seemed to care about was how big were the numbers that they could slap onto the screen at the end of an episode. It was as if nobody producing the show actually understood why car people were watching.
Spinning cars...spinning cars...spinning cars...he was spinning cars...spinning cars. Never in my life have I heard it called "spinning". Now I've heard it 3,000 times in 18 mins
short sad life you got
My grandfather did body work and all of the above. My dad did body work and all of the above. Restorations ,engines , race cars, you name it. But you would not work for either one if you couldn't do it from start to finish yourself. They mostly did everything that came in by themselves.
I watched the show in the beginning but after he fired two of my favorite mechanics when they were rebuilding a Ferrari and one show was about that. He also hired his charisma lacking sister and her son who knew nothing about cars and I couldn't watch it any more.
Coolest fact about Richard Rawlings is that he did the cannonball run and held the record for several years.
Discovery killed the show.
They JUMPED THE SHARK!
When Rawlings appeared in the UK I thought this was a programme taking the pi&& out of American Custom Car Builders.....and I was right
Mee too
He throws it all away when he crashed a new car on the street race and act like he didn't really care what he'd done
The problem with Richard is in his right hand. He can’t do anything without a beer. Whenever he is walking around screaming and hollering he’s got his beer can. Richard is a great guy who has a problem with alcohol. I wish him well.
Richard was always like a used car salesman, and when he worked people overworking on their page that’s how he came so successful
How much get all these guys with their garages from televisions? I mean like Fast N' Loud, Wayne Carini, Wheelers Dealers, Flipping Bangers , Gas Monkey and so on.
Aaron was the man when it came to building the cars Richard was a damn good salesman. Together they were awesome to watch, when one of them is making a shit load of money and your partner wasn’t. We know the ending…
Fast and Loud's demise began when Kaufman left. He was smart enough to understand it was not sustainable long term.
Similarities abound...
OCC with the separation of father and son. Roseanne being let go. Bachelor isn't the same without Harrison.
The drama of the break up in each case is short lived, and the show slowly dies.
I’m 99% sure this is an AI voice and not a real person but, why does “he” keep saying “Car spinning?” Car flipping, or is “car spinning,” just a term I’m unfamiliar with.
I stopped looking at his programm when he purcased nr one and two of I think it was Pontiacs from a man not so informed of the real value of the cars. He bought them for about 75000USD and did nothing to them and sold them to a friend for about ten times more
Wasn't Rawlins also an executive producer of Misfit Garage?
I figured the "firing" was just a story plot to make a new spin-off show.
You missed to mention Richard also started his own Bar and grill shop. I believe he sold that as well.
Know matter what happened i still loved the show and the cast ❤
the whole cast was beautiful 😍 and amazing
I wondered what had happened to the show now i know 😉
It Was Good till it Lasts
Richard seems to be doing great for himself making more money now than when he was on the show
$18M net worth he is doing OK.
@@scotmandel6699Do you have $18 million??? In what planet do you have to be on to think that's not doing OK for themselves 🤦♂️
@@markbrown351Have you heard of sarcasm??
Arron was the man shoulda made him partner in the shop
the show and all like it with fictitious deadlines, were all LAME !!
Aaron could engineer cars that are function ....something sore missed when he was gone
I liked the show, the cars, workers,his sister the 2 firebirds great show!
I liked Richards sense of humor. He and Aaron were a great team.
He sucked... was not a good person and was a talent-less egomaniac!
Yea Used to be
I never liked Rawlings or the show from the start he is full of himself I would rather watch Iron Resurrection, Kindig Customs, Custom Garage & Welderup anyday
Now won't we miss Farmtruck and AZN? ..... They have their own youtube channel! And I love waching them! They are friends! Richard Used Aaron!
What really happened is that Richard is impulsive and a very poor businessman. His sister tried to keep him in check, but she couldn't. Plane and simple.
$18M net worth he seems to be making some good decisions.
haha bullshit he is making money ($18M) and give people money and help !!!
How much is Left 🤔
@@jimmysapien9961Only $100 million.
Still would be good to out the show back on
When the show first came out it was not too bad had some comical stuff in it which is okay they did the job but as Richard got a big head on his shoulders because notoriety and his other business Adventures, he got rid of the ones that really made up the show and when Kaufman left things went South never did care for Rawlings but did like the rest of the cast until they were all fired
We're gonna lose the shop!
Does this dude mean flipping every time he says spinning? Confused me the whole video
Ever spinflipped a car? It’s wild!
The voiceover isn't familiar with the english language, and how it's used - when 'he' says "spinning", 'he' really means "flipping".
Tis and other reality shows is the #1 reason I have had never got cablevision since the year 2000. What a waist of money!
His shop is still open,
All shit comes to an end.
Caca 💩
It ended when he made the deal with Chief on the drag race cheated and still got beat LOL
In an era where people flocked to a reality show with the least productive people on the planet, is it so hard to believe that a show turns trash into amazing rides could appeal to some people?
Gas monkey garage is still open and operating building cars. They're even on TH-cam now. These things are such a joke and most of the people who make comments have no idea what's going on with the shows they are saying are closed because none of them are they're just not on TV anymore. That does not mean the shop closed
I thought Misfit Garage was a better show until I noticed Dick was a producer.
Christie was my favorite.
I think me and Richard would get along well... I also buy cars that are 80% rust too
The GM garage is only 2 miles from my home. Most of the locals did not care for Richard. He treated his employees like crap, I know Sue and she is a angel. Again Richard treated her like rap. Never wanted to pay for her time and effort... NO sure if his restaurant is still open. I personally can not stand for Richard.
I loved, when Sue called them "Ass Monkey " 🤣🤣
Fast N Loud was a brilliant show. I cant say the same for your video. This was one of the most confusing analysis of a show ever. Wasted 18 minutes of my life. Thanks!
No doubt! I only finished it to see what would be said next. For every truthful thing, there was something less than truthful said to balance everything out.
Isn't it "Flipping" cars?
You guys do know that all these shows are just reality shows right? Not legit business making profits. Fixing cars is WORK that requires man hours by volume and these guys mostly bullshit around and clown around on camera. These guys are basically celebrities and the whole thing is scripted for rating as the video stated and that's fine. Like watching Sienfeld or CSI and that's fine it's entertainment. But don't confuse that with a real shop doing the real thing with real employees actually fixing cars. And if a place did have employees like this I'd never go to them because I prefer professionals not goof-offs and would consider their place of business a total joke.
This is the truth. Try bulding a car and make money -- it doesn't work that way.
As far as reality shows went, Fast and Loud seemed to have better scripts and writers than most.
I hate how discovery screwed up everything, his show, magic man Rick etc.!
Aaron is the only reason the show even happened, when he left the show was over.
At least Dennis Collins got to make some appearances on the show. He got to show off that Beavis haircut he sports and pays $150.00 every 2 weeks to keep it styled tight.
For me it died when Aaron Kaufman left.
I feel a little sad for people who actually believe reality shows have anything to do with reality. People who have done commercials or video programs know it takes a lot of set up, lights , script, editing, retakes. It ain't real,ok.
Spinning??? It's "flipping".
Spinning cars involves going off the track.
Is it “baited catch” ?¿?
No it’s “click bait”
“Car spinning” 😒
✌️🇬🇧
All good rides come to a end
Whenever I watch a car TH-camr like Dennis Collins and then Richard walks in at breakfast with a beer in his hand it just gets tired and I dont care to watch this borderline alcoholic behavior. yeah I get that a lot of that is just for display and probably not reality, but it just looks bad.
The manure episode was funny as hell
I love how this was scripted,.. let me tell ya why it went well,. first off reality TV was a popular segment especially in the Automotive subject matter at the time,. so Timing was great,. second it was a show that was showing just how much it cost to do a deal beginning to end,.. even though that part of the show was soon covered over.. then partner Aaron was pretty good at explaining and "teaching" what was about to be done to a car mechanically,. so there was Informative content,.. later when he tried to "back" struggling garage owners - well that was a huge mistake,.... pissing off the Ferrari fans and marquee all over a wrecked F40 was a huge hit,.. so Rich was a real guy with an ego and a sincere heart,,, his cast was real people and Dennis Collins road on the golden path too,.. so thats why it did well,. and im sure he has never looked at failure like this snippet projects it..
You know he just wanted a show he was the owner of the show he spent years trying to get backing selling it for years before anyone took him up he was lucky
When was the last time Richard Rawlings got his hands dirty?. Besides holding a Miller Lite?
Arron made this show worth watching Richard is full of himself after Arron left i didn't watch it anymore
i totally get the stuck in the rut scenario - while Rawlings might have been good at what he did, and responsible for employees, bringing in the work getting it done and making some money at it (sometimes), to me he came over as pretty arrogant, perhaps you need to be in this line of work and i bet the show itself having created the monster also created its downfall, yep i heard that saying just now around 18 mins in how the show had become repetitive, and that's the same in many shows, a format is discovered, people love it or hate it, respond to it (bad news is good news because people are talking about it) and the show demands more of it having created the monster, the monster eats itself - staff get niffed with it and begin to leave (or be fired), being in the public eye has its drawbacks more so than the advantages, what's better to have, your sanity or the money? - i put up with Rawlings as a boss (from my armchair) but it was the staff and characters that made the show, even Sue who i thought was amazing the way she got back at Rawlings, and lets face it, like the Gas Monkey staff, she was good at her job and new it, pleased that Arron is doing well with his own shop, he got a real creative side to him that makes him better than the rest, it useful to know your stuff, loved Tom Smith a clever guy when it came to starting old engines, crazy still loved that edge, i wish them nothing but success for their futures
Pressure and unrealistic expectations is the cause of the downfall of all these reality shows. I imagine these guys get burned out pretty quick.
Drag race. That was it for me.
Same, I never watched another episode after that
Once Aaron left the show died..
9:39 Who the fuck is James and why do you keep showing clips of Jordan while talking about him?
Good entertainment while it lasted
Is Rawlings wearing a syrup? 😂
Ego + Creed = Disaster
I agree, Creed sucks.
On the show I found Richard hard to listen to. The money they were spending on the cars and the amount they were trying to sell for, just didn't make sense.
