I really shouldn.t like these guys as there's more than a hint of Essex Turkey teeth geezer about them, but they're actually quite likeable and have some really nice builds on there.

That looks fun though! Very jittery. I think I'd kill myself in that thing.

We all would, anything other than a track or drag strip and you'd be in a ditch or up a tree in no time.
Not my favourite YT channel or presenter but I found this quite interesting, talking about his background and how he got started in car journalism and how it led him to YT, he's nowhere near as irritating as Alex the person rather than 'AutoAlex', also nice to hear about the car show he setup in 12 days for a lad with stage 4 brain cancer.
As seriously not funny as that is, I’m still tagging @Ant1

It's not the bigger cam lobes he needs to be worried about

Thank God I wasn't with the missus when I burst out laughing. There aren't enough hours in the day to explain why I find stage 4 brain cancer amusing 🤣

Shame the interviewer is a bit s**t, kept cutting him off or glancing over stuff. Alex can be a bit overbearing at times on camera, but he's a decent guy and I'll always enjoy some dicking around with crap cars.

Wonder why they went for Moog over Marty.

That type of show doesn't need a wrench monkey. As per UK top gear of old and new. Not one, was handy with the spanners, more just entertainers.

True actually, suppose Marty appears to do most of the spanner work. Wonder if we'll be able to watch it easily in the UK, not sure if we ever got the original Aussie Top Gear episodes, at least I've never seen them.

Ive seen some of them, but I think from YouTube maybe. So yeah, not sure normal UK TV will show anything.
Be interesting to see Moog interact with others. He's been star billing in his own show and has obvs been mates with Marty for a very long time.
However, if the layout of the presenters on that article is anything to go by, looks like he will be fronting it!
I hope it doesn't signal the end for MCM. Whilst it's not what it used to be, it's still very good.

I'd rather watch hour long episodes of MCM, just like I'd rather see Chris Harris by himself for an hour.

It’s a proper rags to riches kind of story.
Finally, a half decent episode that isn't about the f*cking Nurburgring and that dangerous prick Misha.

Pretty dire from what I remember? The American ones were not great, but I remember the Ozzy ones being worse.
That’s Racist David
Against pricks?
His driving and lack of f*cks given for anyone he shares a track with.
This, plus jumping into cars he knows nothing about i.e. steering, suspension for example are up to standard because let's face it it's hardly Pembrey. Guy is a liability and it'll end badly one day.

You're saying it's a problem because he drives cars hard that may not be up to it?
Isn't that a standard day at the 'ring? There's no minimum mechanical NorthLoop worthiness measure that has to be met beforehand, so everyone takes that risk with every other car that's on track with them.
Don't they?
I think what I mean is, if he's not driving these cars, someone else will be. Does that make them all d*cks as well?

Is that normal driving for the ring then, a total no rules free for all?

It wasn't at all referring to his driving, just the point about the mechanical worthiness and how it's such a risk!
I wouldn't want to be anywhere near him on track, but that's not at all due to what he's pedaling and if it had a fresh MOT that morning or not.

Tourist days are pass on the left, track days are pass either side. I'm sure there are more rules, and people do get asked to leave for driving like pricks.
He drives cars that he has no known history of, plus he pushes it to the max for his internet videos but then also says that you should take care on the ring. The guy is a walking contradiction, he should know better being a "professional racing driver" I mean you don't see Hans Stuck or Walter Rhorl out there do you? It'll end badly one day like I said and that's the feeling around that area too.

He's not a good driver. He knows the Ring well and that's it. Totally different things.
The fact that a sim racer with little real world laps is quicker than him in the same race car says it all. Only a matter of time before he has a proper big shunt in TF and someone gets injured or worse.

what's up with it. I saw a video in his second channel but he didn't say what the problem was.

I'm half way through, but looks like it's dropped either a rod or piston. I'm thinking he's just had it "tuned" in the UK, probably on 98RON, then filled it with pissy 87RON over there and spanked it on a drag strip.
