[M1chelN4v4rro]

drifting is when the car goes sideways lmfao

[ap1hondaking]

Sweet video series!!!!!!!!!! This guy is so cool..

[colemauro]

I like this show, it's really good and funny. It's a sport still in its infancy here in Portugal, but i've decided to give it my small contribution, by posting all the episodes in my blog.

[keykikoo]

[lilblackaz]

Does He Ride The Ladies at 5.44 , As Hard As His Car?? xD

[Varnitoo]

[99CriSs66]

[mopasaurus]

[laban930]

[o0bananaman0o]

6666 customs rocket bunny

[o0bananaman0o]

what kit is that on the s13?

[SupaDupaStatus]

See that kid in the back by the coats tire machine he probably is Discount Tires best and his definitely getting bank.

[g00sampson]

@SupaDupaStatus : Don't want to burst your bubble but jobs in racing are more about passion than they are about money... having a sponsor helps, but the investment goes into the car and the equipment to support it, not necessarily the people who work on it.

[CeeEmmz]

I like his glasses lolz

[GTchannel]

Guys we are preparing Episode 2 for release next week. This is a reality show about Dai the person and Dai the driver so not every video will be filled with just drifting footage. We hope you'll get to know the real Dai thru this series. But of course we will have plenty of drifting footage when he is at the races! Thanks and spread the word by posting links to this video on your Twitter/Facebook pages!

[Brickerage]

@GTchannel Dai's life story is the fifth season of Initial D!!!

[FamilyGuyKiCkSaSS]

I like this, looking forward to more episodes!

[gangster3190]

Nickname: NERD

hahahaha i lol'd so hard at that

[xiaoschi]

his English is not getting any better... i meant he can talk but as a professional driver u gotta communicate with others without problems..

[youngweezy11]

Thumbs up if you've seen the NEW team orange C33 Laurel drift car. (driver: Kamakubo)

[mikaeljd]

what brand are those sunnies...looks soo cool :)

[brandonlacavera]

nice to see he has a new car instead of that shit box 350z

[floatingspace]

lol. best scene. 0:25 while drftin," u want a bit". lol

[darkrx777]

Why is everyone going on about laurels when hes drifting an s13?

[forry90]

"I don't know what drifting is, but it's fun"

[smaus]

like anything that looks good in front of the camera it takes a lot of hard work behind the scenes. Dai and SPD do an amazing job.

[XenoRacing]

lol he thinks it only started 20 years ago! xD

[me2ontube]

@XenoRacing i find that really amazing too - guys have been drifting since before prohibition and he thinks it's something new - i'm not so old but i'm not dumb enough to think that some kid in japan was the first to "drift" (previously simply called having fun) a few years ago

[XenoRacing]

@me2ontube Keiichi Tsuchiya a famous touring driver of the 80s drove a modified JDM Corolla GTS and won events so often that he would corner exit drift to entertain the crowd and give opponents a chance to catch up. later he did drifts through the turns and even corner entry drifts which people later emulated. Since the 1930s people have been using corner exit drift to control the cars oversteer. Its really quite interesting! :D

[me2ontube]

@XenoRacing I would love to see some of his races - seems it wasn't a race at all

[GTchannel]

@me2ontube Racing coming up from Formula D Round 1 Long Beach!

[XenoRacing]

@me2ontube well if anyone would have footage, it will be Best Motoring, since they endorse Keiichi Tsuchiya. BMI gave GTChannel the rights to upload this old footage, so if you ask they may be able to supply it. Just tell them he has a huge fan base globally and it will be good ratings.

[greenmondaymorning]

[SpeedFreakNO]

@PFULMTL I'd take it as long as I had a place to sleep and food to eat as well as the drifting, don't really need anything more :P

[FSboarder]

i love dai, this man is fucking cool. since tanner is out, i make dai my fav.

go get 'em dai !!!

[MrAeroHD]

Thumbs up if you didn't need to look up C33 Laurel, cause you actually know shit about drifitng.

[SpeedFreakNO]

@MrAeroHD Laurel for the win :D \o/ I've got a C32 :D Not in the best shape, but eventually ;)

[tuned4life]

@MrAeroHD serious if you realy call your self a drift car fan are what ever those guys call them and you dont know a laurel then they realy need to get back to there manuals xD

[MikeNoran]

@MrAeroHD lol aero u a funny dood no homo

[MisterPeetBull]

@MrAeroHD I don't know what C33 Laurel is, I just saw the video on my homepage. Fucking dork. I bet you drive a front wheel drive car- if anything at all.

[MrAeroHD]

@MisterPeetBull Not the point. I know what a Laurel is because I follow the drift community. The comment I referred to was posted before this video was on the hopepage.

"dork", lolol.

[MisterPeetBull]

@MrAeroHD So you don't own a car?

[MrAeroHD]

@MisterPeetBull No, and once again, that's not even the point.

[MisterPeetBull]

@MrAeroHD My point exactly.  Just another follower who probably couldn't even consider handling a RWD car with any sort of balls.

[MrAeroHD]

@MisterPeetBull I love how you just assume that. fucking troll. (Y)

[MisterPeetBull]

@MrAeroHD By the way- you already admitted it.

[MrAeroHD]

@MisterPeetBull By the way, you're still missing the point.

[trd88noz]

@MisterPeetBull fukin right!

[MisterPeetBull]

@trd88noz MrAeroHD is a little bitch ass faggot. Talking shit on the internet about a car video when he doesn't even own a car. Even his screen name is a car that he will never have. Fake ass faggot ass bitch.

[MrAeroHD]

@MisterPeetBull You're such a troll, honestly. I own a car, that wasn't what you asked. And an Aero isn't even a car, unless that's the SCC Ultimate Aero, but my Youtube name derives from "Aerodynamic". So instead of dismissing me as another stupid kid, maybe have a argument or a discussion, instead of spitting insults and skewed facts.

[trd88noz]

@MisterPeetBull yea i knew it as soon as i think about what and how he said that top rated comment. just another little kid that needs a good wack on his head..

[MrAeroHD]

@trd88noz Once again, I love how you all assume I'm a little kid because I put "thumbs up if". I was parodying the other top rated comment. Use your noggin', champ.

[trd88noz]

@MrAeroHD well, i'll be maturely honest. the furthest i can assume is just by interpreting your comment. the way you commented using "thumbs up if.." just showed that you commented like a little kid. sorry if you're not, but you definitely sounded like one.

[MrAeroHD]

@trd88noz I was doing it to parody the current highest rated comment. If "thumbs up if you looked up C33 Laurel" wouldn't have been there, my comment wouldn't exist.

[trd88noz]

@MrAeroHD i understood what you were saying. the thing is, you didnt have to make a comment of your own after that previous comment. if you wanted to reply to that comment then use "reply". unless if you were trying to make that comment of yours and the other comment as the 2 top rated comments, then well you got it. but if you really did wanted that, again you acted like a little kid. a "comment" is supposed to be a pure opinion, not a reply for someone else's comment.

[dirtbikemike69]

@MrAeroHD Thumb down cause you asked for thumbs up, not only once but twice.

[MrAeroHD]

@dirtbikemike69 Only once. :)

[dirtbikemike69]

@MrAeroHD Whoops my bad... lol.. 

[monsterGAUZ]

@MrAeroHD oh yeah ;)

[publicbastard]

the 2011 car sure does look sweet

[iXchani91]

David Hasselhoff, fuck yeah!

[alitap]

Stupid American Drag Racer: Drifting??? Car going sideways??? Thats blasphemy!!!

[MrStiturbo]

thumb up if you looked up c33 laurel

[Asanj3RSplayer]

@MrStiturbo lmao i looked that shit up to!!

[marleyman101]

Good to see a Formula D driver still using a grassroots car.

[TheIronTank]

Mike is just awesome :P, reminds me of one of my regular customers, facial features and all.

[rockkyman]

0:26 passenger guy: hay dude, wanna medium rare hamburger?

dai: nope, im drifting, i'll drunk......

[arcix12]
