- Adam LZ has feelings too, and other topics with our favorite youtuber. Adam is now an integral part of the drift community, and one of the influencers with the largest drift audience. That is a ton of responsibility and stress, and he has the ability to set the pace and tempo of drifting in the future to a certain degree. If Adam decided only missile cars or stance cars were cool in the future, there could be a large part of the community that would be influenced by him. I think that is an interesting topic, as there were some key influencers that created sub genre. Adam is one of those people that could do that. His driving Formula D for instance increases their live stream audience by a huge margin, and when he exits the race a large amount of people tune out. His audience loves him that much.
It might not look like it with views and stuff, but Aaron is really building a HELL of a drifting library for the next generations, and we thank you for that🙏
that is a neat way to think about things. when I die from lung cancer people can go through my videos and research how it happened lol.
@@LoneStarDrift lung cancer? Are you like an avid smoker or something?😂
@@zerohourdrift avid tire smoker
@@zerohourdrift Tire smoke is not good for you.
You’re a G ✌️
Found Adam as a bmx kid, enjoyed the transition to car stuff as I got into motorsports, stayed for the growth of business. A part I dont know how many people recognize about LZ, is his ability to grow revenue, and staff. He went from, "TH-cam gives me the ability to do what I love", to "All of this allows me to give other people the life they want to live" . And I really appreciate that.
Same i still remember watching his Odyssey space bar video😂
He even grows his last name. A real man will double hyphenate his name
48 minutes and no ads. You the real MVP
seeing that made me like and subscribe#
You know that’s how they make their income right? Monetization on TH-cam sucks right now. Gotta deal with the ads for the guys you enjoy
@@lit7105 at time of writing, 127 people had seen the light in this comment, and you missed it.
Solid bloke
Eyyyy its dah boi
what a lad
Yeah mate, he's a unit 👌
Super solid bloke
that's why I feel adam is where he is at due to him staying true and doing what he wants. I never really knew much about chasers, purist jdm things and watching him throughout the years made me really love that stuff.
I never thought I'd love old Toyotas that aren't Supra's but they are Supra's at heart.
@TH-cam User How about you need to do research and his content is a good way to demonstrate the potential that certain things can have? He never said he loved it because Adam did, he said he loves that stuff because he saw what they can do
Yea same when i started watching him i fell in love with Japanese cars
Never thought I would want to fly to Ebisu circuit and drift for a few days.
Its cool to see an unedited Adam
And him using cuss words lol.
I thought I was your favorite lol
Damn lol, you are. But I needed a nice title.
LOL
You’re Adam’s favourite Trev ✌️
you all play a part in our hearts
@@LoneStarDrift that’s foul lol 😂
I love when you interview LZ... He's very comfortable with you and you interact well together. He gets to be himself more and it seems like a conversation between friends.
Lz just knows how to do it, he cares about the content and it shows. He could just talk for 10 mins on the way to the parts store and then not show you the part going in like some people lol. Its also sick that he went into FD, the journey is really cool to see and the content is fire! great interview!
Deanski “…not show you the part going…” like tj? 🤣
@@edijsnsoel hahaha yes you know!!
Adam's idea about having a day where the guys do non drift stuff is what drift week 3 needs. Love that guy.
I wonder what I should plan out?
@@LoneStarDrift laser tag, zip lines, tubing down rivers, axe throwing, video game comps, put put golf, dodge ball, really depends on what states and whats available. Get creative. The guys will make it fun regardless
@@LoneStarDrift the pacific northwest is a beautiful place, maybe something outdoors- ATV or SXSs trail rentals maybe? Went skydiving up there once, that was pretty sick. There's an oregon trail rally event in may. I bet someone like chelsea would probably have some better ideas of cool shit to do in that area. I don't know that area well, but there's got to be some good ideas for something you guys could do on an off day to take a break halfway through. Maybe even just some kind of goofy skills competition at one of the tracks would help a bit with getting the drivers together, or a little backies competition with all the drift week drivers, similar to what luke and the aussies like to do down under with their extreme wall rides competitions... but that could be abusive on the cars, maybe someone could find a sponsor a rental, some kind of beater, or an offbeat car that might be hard to drive for all the drivers to try and drive and have some kind of friendly competition-- doing backies in a beater. Or some kind of top gear style challenge with a few judges. Maybe some kind of interesting drinking games that are car / drifting related? that's all i got off the top of my head, might be kind of tough to find something in that area that the whole crowd of drivers would be interested in, but I bet someone out there has got some decent ideas. Also interview was entertaining, nice upload
@@LoneStarDrift 100% do some paintball. Shit's way too fun not too and it's great bonding.
"I'd rather build stock body projects that the purists appreciate more than the typical widebody big wing stuff"
What up TJ Hunt?
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT 😂
To be fair, he’s been a little better about it since he got his 370. He’s gotten way more seat time and stopped caring so much about aesthetics(to an extent)
@@zerohourdrift well dont forget TJ has different content, if all car youtubers be the same it wouldn't be fun i like Teeg's more stancy show car stuff and watch Adam for the more serious motorsports content and Hoonigan for the broad coverage on car culture. For example every youtuber has it's own style and makes it fun to watch all the different approaches they have.
@@nielsreiziger4850 Taylor for the builds and the driving oh and the weather and cletus for just all out crazy 🤣
@@nielsreiziger4850 I agree with that statement. Only thing I had issues with Tj was his lack of originality for a while. Would buy a new car, and do the same exact thing he did to the old one. Definitely better now imo
Ebisu content is some of my favourite content, missing it this year :( The driving, cars, people and getting to see parts of Japanese culture when not at the track is really awesome to see.
watch aboard in japan or MCM's turbos and temples
This interview was awesome because so many people idolize Adam and it kinda dehumanizes him and it’s sometimes hard to think of him as just another person. This video shows him just being him and it makes him appear as just another person.
At the end of the day, adam has alot of great things but he still just wants friends and adventure. I vibe with that.
Love long interviews with LZ
I do love those kind of interview videos, they are so authentic and enjoyable for me, questions are spontaneous and they do get off topic, i simply love that, the noises in the background didn't bother me as a person at all and made it more enjoyable aswell (for me) even tho i saw the length of it it wasnt a point of me saying to myself that it wouldn't be worth just for the reason how the interviews are being held, being from germany and not having the chance to see this in person the next years it still gives me sort of a feeling and motivational boost to get the local drift community in my area a motivation boost and hype
Nice to read man, feel you... ✌️
Agreed!
Ya this video went by fast for me. Would really enjoy and appreciate having a 1 on 1 conversation with them.
Feel you man
Also from Germany :)
Adam was so busy doing ride alongs in Houston lol And everytime he pulled into the pits, at least 1 person was like "hey, your radiator is leaking!" 🤣
I said that too lol
This channel deserves more love, the content level is so high quality!
It is so cool to see Adam as more for who he is and hear him cuss and just saying what he thinks
The video on Tommy FYeahs channel where he drives Adam's Z is the best example of savage Adam if you haven't seen it.
4 years ago you was struggling at ebisu with Aaron by your side. And look where you are today? Lone star doing really good with those interviews and everybody love Lz💛 thank u for drift weekend and all the good contents for both of you
Adam really hit the nail on the head i think. What makes driftweek fun i think is how vast it is. Its very touring oriented but if its only track days it kinda takes the whole point of street driving away. Then you might as well have a trailer tour or a series. I loved the traveling and touring on the first one and i think thats what made it more special
The drivers did plenty of that, but it is spread over a ton of channels. With 27 drivers coving half the nation in their drift cars, there are tons of stories of the Corvettes caravanning at 100 plus mph all night, drivers getting alligators into their cars for a challenge, going to casinos and bars, heading out to the French Quarter in New Orleans. The you tubers are so exhausted from editing and shooting on top of driving they don't get to do that so much.
@@LoneStarDrift well that's what i mean. like dedicated break days of touristing so everyone can recharge a bit and the TH-cam guys get some easier content. While the crazy stuff is all well and good a day at the beach or bar hopping would also be valuable i think
@@LoneStarDrift and also since the youtube content is lifestyle content it would benefit significantly from the variety of experiences so that it doesn't become repetitive. Drift week is about american drifting right? Well you already have bunch of corvettes and a couple z's, a handful of pro drivers/ relevant people, innovative builds to showcase, but its missing a little bit of the american part. I think the character of a region should also be showcased a bit more.
Aaron does amazing things for the drift world. Making the events happen and bringing people together for drifting is key for keeping it alive. Thanks Arron !
Caleb Quanbeck is the perfect example of overbuilt cars with underdeveloped talent
I thought they was talking about Hert from the hoon boys 😂. Lovely car he can’t drive. Kids on forza have enjoyed that more then he has.
Ruuuuuuuuu
@@hybrid_lord hert can drive wtf are you on about? Dude shreds without a care for his cars and panels. Can door the best of them
@@stylepoints.180 An that’s our difference of opinion right ther bro. I love the guy, don’t get me wrong sorry. He’s cool, likeable as f and humble with it I think. But to me he’s a celeb car personality that dose burn outs and shreds. Dream goals... .His profile grew so quick. But I’m not sure how many tourny’s he’d win tho🤔. ✌️🤙
@@hybrid_lord anyone trying to tout "tourney" wins at any drift event is proptly made fun of... since when did competition wins define skill? Programs win drift competition and skill earns other drivers respect... take that bs elsewhere
The around the drifting antics was probably some of the best parts about the first driftweek as a veiwer. It also kinda felt better covered on youtube but that might just be because of who i follow.
I can recommend Brandon Wicnick's channel, it shows a lot of what's going on behind the scenes.
@@Zimmernld wicnicks and dans videos for drift week 1 were halarious when there cars break that was the best part.
@@awesomecooly123 agree that Dan's vlogs cover a good bit of what its like to undertake a trip like this. His trip this year has almost shown all the emotions
Like him or not you can literally watch his progression day by day - This dude works HARD.
I really really enjoyed this conversation. Calm, honest.
Adam is such a good guy with a big heart. I honestly do believe, that he is taking good care of he's staff, more as friends, than anything else. Humble by heart.
I love you too. I really respect the daddy position you're in, and the driftworld wouldn't be the same for you guys overseas.
I would love to participate, but coming from Scandinavia, I really don't want to leave, too.
Thanks for the video, and yeah, do it again!
Much love. ❤️
Yep adam getting mike to film and edit more often has definitely stepped up the quality and lz staying in front of the game
Thank you sir, that was awesome i love your interviews they are just real and honest. your an exceptional interviewer.
Grant really is that guy that fits into everyone’s videos no matter what 🤣
Keep bugging him to move to texas so he can build the freedom drift factory
That makes no sense bro
Texas! We have everything here minus mountains, I’m a Colorado born and love the outdoor lifestyle there(skateboarding, snowboarding/skiing hiking, so so much its beautiful as fuck! But i grew up (high school in Texas, graduated, went to Colorado for college and due to injuries that killed 2(RIP) handicapped my parents along with harsh winters, we came back to San Antonio, sure its hot, but there’s all year activity and endless time space and things to do, i love both places if i could afford to live in both i so would in a heartbeat! And its crazy how those two state remind me of one another yet so vastly different!
Why? He could do that in Florida, we need more tracks here.
@@Slow._.EJ8 he could buy the compound 😂
@@queensgambit6341 Doesn’t matter where just as long you can get there by car and the geographic makeup of the area.
Watching this after Adam got the compound is sick, hearing him mention it without knowing its forsure forsure. Congrats to him for killin it.
Thanks for all the uploads alone star drift 👍
i was going to comment the same thing. it is awesome that he got the plasce
btw , he talks about the compound at 41:27
Love these yarns. I feel new Zealand as far away as it is would be good for a international drift week. The dollar works in favor of people coming here the drift scene is big we have loads of good tracks spread out awesome roads in-between etc. Big ol commitment though
I watch everyone of Adam's videos, but I pretty much only watch for the drifting videos
I have been watching since drift day one. Same with taylor.
Seeing this side of Adam is so nice, as an introvert like LZ i couldn't handle it, i shut down going to the shops and seeing more than 5 people there
"Some people are just wrong." You're correct and not at all out of line. It's content like this that keeps me watching your content. I don't always agree with what you say, but your stand on staying true to yourself is good to hear/see.
Tj hunt with his 350z just sits in his shop lol
Really thankful for this insight on adam. We really only see what he wants us to see. We never see him cry or get angry its nice to see that hes a person with emotions and that is lost in a lot of large youtubers
Finally a video with real HD quality. It makes it so much more enjoyable to watch.
Adam always keeps his cars clean. He also seems like a nice guy
Everyone needs a shulman
Dude adam should start filming more of is daily life again... I wanna see more of adam! I wanna see adam in Hawaii! Not just adam's car. Back in 2015-2018 he was filming more daily thing and I was enjoying it!
Man! Adam needs more like this! Also amazing setup! Also the background noise is cool..! I wanna see the insights of this video! Must be like 45% watching all the video and everyone else switch of in the first sec.
I really Enjoy daily uploads during an event like this because it keeps us updated on what’s going on
I also do agree having other stuff to do like visiting new places, go touring some place, having activities other than just drifting will make this trip way more unique and more enjoyable. Not only you are getting to know how each of the one drives but also knowing them as a person, these types of road trips is what i'm aiming at next year. Just go have fun and experience new stuff.
So nice to hear Adam swear. Strange
Same🤣
He probably jsut knows how many fans he'd piss off because of how many kids have parents that don't want them exposed to it
Pacific Northwest Driftweek is something I feel we’ve all been waiting for! PARC, Villains Sportsland, and spirit peak would be awesome to add to the list
Why not run evergreen and spirit peaks!
add evergreen in there and itd be great
Please PLEASE do another interview with Adam. Maybe with more trivial questions or something along those lines.
As a fan of fd, and adam lz before he ever got in a pro 1 car, its disheartening to see so many people bringing toxicity to our community just to troll people in the comments. And then make the excuse “i respect him, im just trolling.” Well if you respect him, than give him the respect he deserves, and has earned. People behind computers whove never had their foot on a pedal, slagging on him. It just grinds my gears.
The reason i been watching adam since bmx is because he keeps it real and is just having fun. He has also helped everyone along his path. This a genuine person. Alot these youtubers fake af.
Aaron, the Joe Rogan of drifting. Many thanks for the amazing content, your time and dedication. Brilliant stuff!
Na, I don't think you are mean, you are just straight forward to people. Physiologically, you can improve by delivering your message depending the way they are. You can figure a person out by talking about 10minutes plus. And you have a huge input in drifting that you don't even know. And I am not even from USA.
Adam, I have been going to Lone Star Drift events since 2009 and a became a fan of yours a couple years and had the opprotunity to meet you at Lone Star Drift in Mineral Wells and had a great interaction. Keep Drifting Fun!
This was nice to listen to, cheers gentlemen.
“Do you feel guilty for not saving the turtles?” Lol dude, Adam’s still so young. He’s a genuinely good person though and he’ll definitely start saving the world as he gets older. Right now he has money BECAUSE he builds cars and uses them in competition non stop. He’s striking while the iron’s hot. TH-cam is so volatile and if he lets his foot off the gas it could all disappear. Let him keep building his empire and then ask him the same questions in 10 years.
BMX was such a great training ground for him though, he mentions it in the video when he talks about caring more about the core of the community than the broader public. He got the experience of a) progressing to a substantial skill level while having millions of eyes on him, b) while dealing with sponsors and making it financially feasible, but also c) developing and codifying a brand that will surely outlive youtube. That was all before getting into cars full time. Cars are, at least in my opinion, a totally natural progression from BMX/Skating/Other extreme sports. I grew up skating and snowboarding, and generally liking things that give me a rush - and now that I'm in 21 and have a little bit of money - cars just make sense as a hobby to pursue. My knees are bad, but I can still operate a clutch pedal. We use them everyday, and if we don't, we at least see them everyday. So even beyond the core, there is a much broader general appeal in all things car related. I haven't even mentioned that he knows how to compete! he was a Pro BMX rider, and understands at least at a basic level the effort required to succeed in a competitive environment. Great Interview! It's important that people like you are there to keep people like Adam in check, and to make sure he doesn't get lost in the glitz. Thanks for keeping him humble!
i love how you talk so good at this interview stuff
Adam is my favorite drifter by far. I remember watching your first tandem Comp in the rain. I will always watch Adam. Honestly the reason why I got into cars as much as i think I did.
I love this video so much. This was the best simplistic interview.
Thanks!
Idk what he’s talking about drifting content is my favorite. Shop content is what can get repetitive imo
I would agree
exactly
He speaks for analytics, not the individual
Thanks to both of you guys and your teams/ guests for creating content!
I just started drifting and at times I wonder if it’s worth burning through tires and wearing the car out, but Drift friends and content like this remind me that I’m not alone.
Also, thanks for the reality check too! I like how you guys keep everything on a real level and strait to the point. Gods speed!
I wonder the tire and wearing out cars thing all the time, drifting is so hard on us all, but I literally don't know what else to do with my life at this point lol
Drifting content doesn’t burn me out I would rather see Adam drift and mix it up with his content.I like how lz just shows his life.Lz fans are solid we like what he does
We love you and we love Adam keep up the awesome videos
Thank you for these interviews. We don't get these long form conversations anymore. If Adam built a track I'm moving
As a viewer I love all the drift week content. Last year was amazing with the Luke Fink and Fam.
Honestly one of the most entertaining interviews, q&a style videos I’ve ever watched. Just wish you asked more questions outside of cars.
please do another one of these and have like 50-100 questions railed out to rattle through
This interview was insanely helpful for me. Thanks Aaron & Adam!
When Aaron mentioned balling out on a Lambo, I wasn’t sure if it was just my inner dialogue saying “Eew” or if it was Adam. It was both, best answer!
Noriyaro is a great guy and seems very shy but is actually very good at speaking to crowds. I feel drifting/living/working in Japan has given him confidence. I mean he is the d1 announcer for Japan and the english speaking world. I met him in Sydney 15 or 20 yrs ago. Best channel ever. But so chill. Drift battle magazine. Oh the history.
14:10 TJ Hunt's 350z
also when adam said he doesnt want to be repetitive I remembered TJ's widebody+HRE running joke
truuuuuueee
Tj hunt cant drift.. well hardly
@@anthonyboulus9042 he's not that bad, he just doesn't put in the time for driving cars. He rathers just do one modification a day to put out daily uploads 😂
@@mr69it I stopped watching tj months ago not saying he’s a bad person just very repetitive content he takes joy in his uploads lz, Taylor Ray, and Cleetus put out the best car content and in my opinion are the most humble guys that really enjoy what they do makes it easier and more exciting to watch.
14:00 that is TJ HUNT 100%
Is it just me or dose he turn every question into an answer about himself 😂. It’s not meant as a poisonous comment I love both these guys and channels. But yeah he is such a cool dad hanging out with the boiz, love it. Sweet vids.
I dont think its intentional its just the way he is, I kinda like it for, some reason I find Aaron very interesting
@@acherontiaatropos1 oh hell yeah all the little stories are golden, an some behind the scenes stuff. From a highly regarded guy always great to learn more.
Adam is a awesome guy and when anyone tries to hate on him they get roasted by all of his loyal fans they are very protective of him and they have the right to be because he's a really cool dude that's always helping people around him
I don’t know if Aaron is one of Adam’s mentor but he sees great potential in Adam and the things he is doing great interview
Adam you're wrong and right at the same time, I love the drifting on repeat but the builds at the same time got me hooked
I hope he does build a track at some point.
Every $5 goes towards a giveaway waffle had me cry laughing hahahahha
Met LZ at Englishtown, super cool dude shot the shit with him trying to see why his car was eating coolant.
Aaron talks like he is still carrying all the pain of being a tight budget drifter. It's literally his mission to make drifting accessible for everyone. And I love how he is scumbagging LZ to make a drift track. I am also glad he encouraged LZ to go to Japan and learn traditional drifting. His style shows it. Le'go
Big boost helped your learning curve that's for sure..gotta give Alberto the respect he need's
Definitely a fundamental part in Adam's automotive direction
Adam I've been following you for a very long time, I really enjoy watching ALL your content and I am glad to have been able to watch you grow and stay happy doing it. Stay as you are change nothing, stay true to yourself doesn't matter what you do we will follow...
I agree about the track! I commented a while back on adams page. If he builds a track it would be a huge event that would attract people from all over. He can push the sport higher right now.
Always some of the best info on this channel thanks to Aaron's perspective and type of questions
here in 2022. THE 5 YEAR PLAN TOOK 1 YEAR LMAO, really glad he made it a 1 year plan without the compound there just wasn't enough resources like he has now and the content is crazy good
damn that z4M thing was like my favorite car :(
For sure
you got me so damn motivated lol. after binge watching your vids i went out and bought a clapped e46 to get into drifting. sold my stupid " show car" subaru to get a truck to tow my e46 when i get it done. but man before i even start drifting i got like 5k i gotta dump into this car to get it ready lol.. its a good and a bad thing lol youre a good dude and youre good at talking lol.
I was just talking about this with someone, how learning a track equips you with a picture of the different turns/elements, and that as you gain more experience and drive more tracks you begin to see corners you know how to attack even at places you've never driven before. Bummed issues on my end prevented me from driving with Adam and the gang at NCDP9 x_x
Adam take collete to Hawaii for a vacation and make a few 10 minute vlogs and take some relaxation time! I’d genuinely love to see y’all relaxing having fun!
This is such a dope interview, on par with the one you did with Hert.
He does a great job at portraying humble...
Trenton from Yplate is the man, super nice guy, really down to earth. Stoked to see him plowing his way through the industry💪
Alexi is a good guy. Would love to see him on the LZ channel
Would love to see Adam build a track 👍❤️ and the creativity that could come from it as well as it could be a new track for drift week but the unedited and off top head questions are great it really shows the type of person LZ is and you I loved the video
I love that you're in FD. Go get that shit!!!
Get your sponsors to pay up man. That's what they're for
As someone that just moved to Florida I can confirm Florida is awful in a lot of ways, but its also very cool because there is such a large car scene here.
Fun relaxing interview ! If you are doing more of this sit down style interviews you might want to consider an entry level lav mic setup, with 2 transmitters and 1 receiver, the new SYNCO G1(A2) is a great option for only 150bucks or the Comica BoomX-D D2 for 250.
Even as a viewer Ive noticed the lack of community feeling for drift week this time. It doesn't seem like its as much of a fun time away travelling around in drift cars and hanging out getting up to random stuff rather than purely just a bunch of track days and inconveniently driving between them in drift cars. Not sure if thats also to do with the scale of it this year and number of drivers or if the vibe just isnt transferring across to video content very well. Either way, concept is sick and everyone is killing it!
LZ is just a young Aaron but with a mustache change my mind
I could listen to Aaron talk all day
I do remember that talk, I Don't know where it was said, adam did went to Japan and radical change his view of drifting, and that actually made him progress over his peers. Then he came back from that first trip and kick all the comp. I remember that.
Aaron on fans: "I don't know, do I yell at them?"
hahahahah I love it
