I really like the Auto shenanigans YouTube page. Some great info on roads we use and towns we live.
John is great. He was stood in the town I live in the other day (on his tour of Sussex using the old AA book) but pointed out that there was nothing here 😂 (I walk by where he was stood every day, surreal to see a boring town on YouTube)

Duncan Graham has created his own little training classes now, for mapping subarus. But he started a youtube channel alongside it, last year.
He originally my mapped my prez + also the updates I've done. He's no presenter, but is a genuinely nice fella.

I enjoyed his latest vid, as he has shown that the syvecs can be programmed with the pit limiter button, to do rolling launch/anti-lag. Pretty cool. I might get it on mine. 4mins in. sounds epic on the dyno, when engaged and launched.

The gearbox on this too.... love it.

Came across this video this morning by Maxwell formally (it now seems) of Drive tribe.



Might be worth a sub


Good luck to him, kinda feared he had made a bad decision joining them full time. He came across as a really likeable person unlike some other insufferable presenters. Drivetribe acted like c***s so can go f**k themselves.

Drivetribe was a car crash from day one. I was selected as one of the initial batch of content creators. They made loads of promises but it became apparent almost instantly that it was a c**k-up. They spunked all their money on fancy offices in central London, an army of software people, and on hiring established journos and then paying for ridiculously extravagant films. It's no surprise it imploded.

The YouTube channel is just click-baity crap for the most part. I find Mike Fernie pretty irritating as well to be honest. He just doesn't seem to actually know very much about cars. Mechanically useless which is fine, but every time he talks about a car, it's riddled with mistakes, like he's just done a 10-second Google search and taken the first thing he found as gospel. If he doesn't know anything about cars, can't fix cars and can't drive cars, how on earth can he talk with any authority about it?

The bloke above has probably dodged a bullet to be honest.

I mainly do stuff on YT/Instagram:
www.youtube.com/@maximumattackrallying
www.instagram.com/maximumattackrallying

I did work for DirtFish.com for a few months, but it wasn't really for me. I prefer doing my own thing, though I do occasionally do some freelance for them among others.

Got some bigger plans for next year, hopefully going to some rallies and collaborating with some people.

Saw the begining of the recent Chris Slix one where he's going to Turkey for hair implants. Immediately turned off. What a melty c**t, he's about 25 isn't he?

Watched this last night and it had me smiling. Skip to around 10 mins for the wholesomeness


brilliant.

Did you get to that video from Harris's recent 911 S/T video where he took Francis out in the 911 then in his own his girlfriends Honda Jazz around Anglesey.

Maxwell Millz is letting the drivetribe thing go, good on the lad if the Ford bloke is telling his side honestly.

Interesting that he's sticking the knife into DT so openly. Not sure what to make of the Ford guy to be honest. Wasn't he also involved in "restoring" the pink ex-Max Power Escort? That all went south too as I recall. I can't say I'm surprised that DT tried to screw them though. Fernie knows nothing about cars as far as I can see, and they would have put the filming schedule above anything.

Anyone know what happened to the Odd Autos guy? Really enjoyed his videos... was getting more popular and then said he was going to make more, shorter videos. Then he just disappeared, no videos for months now 🤷‍♂️,

In the comments on his latest video he said he'd lost his workshop, so was being forced to move all his gear elsewhere.

Oh no. However, in one video he showed the garage was at the end of his garden!? Maybe he didn't actually own it and it just happened to be there externally or something, bit weird though. Unless he's actually moved house as well.

At least gives me hope he'll be back one day!

How does this place work? I assume they have some heavy investors behind them? It was an interesting watch, but couldn't help feeling 'What's the point?' as it just seems a bit of a waste.

Yeah I was the same. I don't mind some of the older cars with stupendously low mileage, as they might have an interesting story behind them but, if you've reached a point where you're buying brand new cars and rolling them out of the dealership and into a museum, some of the magic is lost.

No different to those vaults full of old paintings no one will ever see, probably a hedge fund or investment company sitting on all those halo cars with delivery miles waiting until they doubled in money, then sell them on and replace with more cars that'll never get driven.

  182 Trophy, 200 Cup
I spy some Renaultsports in that video
I think this outfit are flogging a 182 Trophy on eBay at the moment, I recognise some of the backdrop and the location is Glasgow. I wonder if they’re swapping it out with an interest in getting the 9,000 mile example on collecting cars?

It is. They might as well not even bother installing engines in some of these limited edition/rare cars that are never actually going to move.

Meh. Much more interested in the Fords and rally cars anyway. Some absolutely stunners in the video though for sure.
