"What are they rated for?
"Not what I'm pushing."

Spoken like a true bolt-on prince.

"You're becoming a great mechanic by owning a time bomb"
Facts 😂

I like that they don't rip on the people in these clips, even admit they've done it before.

[kellsbellls]

"It appears they were trying to drift a civic"
"That's usually a mustang driver" 😂😂😂😂😂

Im guessing that the cop at 12:45 ABSOLUTELY knew what had been modified. Thats why he's going "its not over the top", "Oh its stock? Ok i believe you!". He probably knew the camera was on and went "Nah man this is a nice ride. Let's get him out of this. As long as he doesnt incriminate himself i'll play along"

Nolan: pretends to listen about head gaskets while thinking about those crispy fajitas he ordered for lunch

[BOSSHGGN]

I'm still here, but there's an extreme lack of Sandro and Angela. I'll watch, but I'm gonna complain the whole time

Nolan saying "yeah yeah" while he talks about headgasket like its some complicated process of how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop

[edwardelenes]

"El MOTOR!" Whats that mean? Lol the motor... Oh.

[jrel]

I really appreciate Steph style of communicating. I also enjoy Sandro and Angelina style, would be cool to have those 3 together in a vid doing a bit of back and forth.

Late combustion timing for flamethrowers. For when you want burnt valves.

Steph’s knowledge and his ability to present information is amazing. So enjoyable to watch him and listen to him explain everything.

Ive had a rear wheel fall of my old ranger at 70kph (and yes it was torqued properly), have to admit, wasn't fun. Ruined my rim because the drum landed on the rim, and the rim still somehow spun and stayed with the truck. I was 2km from home, so I stole one lugnut from the other 3 wheels, and limped it home, then replaced the rim. Only damage that was done was the rim was destroyed, and the only "warning" i had was about a minute before, i went around a soft corner, and thought to myself, well that felt a bit strange. A minute later, bang, wheel was no longer attached. Bright side someone behind me saw the centre cover fly off into the ditch, stopped and picked it up, and brought it back to me. Thought that was nice of them. Haha

I love how nolan gets uncomfortable when dude keeps looking at him

[cjsebes]

9:29 I think the third guy did a decent job. He saw that he was going to hit the second car, cranked the wheel, and impacted with his side into his buddy's car rather than driving the nose into the door. More surface area of the cars hitting each other means less potential for a hard in in the door. I say, good save, dude.

Why does the "NoT wHaT iM pUsHiNg" guy look like a young ricky with that shirt

As an owner of a 94 Miata, PLEASE do a whole Miata fails video
