Supercharged LS3 E36 FIRST track test BLOWS US AWAY! 

I know spoons on the payroll, and it's technically his job. But GOT DAMN can we get a shout out to the man. Jumps at fixes, always has the best attitude and is an amazing fabricator. Seriously, Spoon is the GOAT, gives jimmy more time to relax and focus on content and driving. Best addition to this channel since the Black Z.

Brian, Spoon and Jimmy all drifting together by next summer will be cool to watch. Jimmy's learned so much this last year he's now able to pass on what he learned as a beginner to spoon and the rest the crew that's interested in being more involved.

Austin you have outdone yourself with how you improved production on the videos. Congrats boys you have fkn done it 🙌

Couldn't be more stoked that the boys put this together in time for limerock. Some of the craziest driving from Jimmy ever. Cant wait to see more driving with this car.

I can’t believe you guys pulled this together, why do I feel like Spoon the mad man suggested getting this done for grid life, no one thought it was possible but here you are! Great content, amazing car and what a story!

Jimmy and Brian killing it!!! Best tandems I saw at limerock!!

Dude! You were getting Japan level closeness on that fast ass track. You have come so far in driving and on camera - great stuff, really proud of you 🤘

That power train seem to suit you so good. The way you drive LS beamers, man it looks badass! Keep killin’ them tires!

The Gentleman's drift car - comparatively quiet and calm sounding, but able to throw down when the time comes! To think you guys put this together in a week is insane! Jimmy, Spoon and the crew are freakin' legends for pulling this off!!

Spoon is such a great member of the team, huge respect to him!!

*I don't have the Jimmy Oakes Patreon, but this is one of the longest RU-vid videos I've seen from here! Good content*

Seeing Brian and Jimmy drift together is so awesome I love to see the energy and all the crew evolved. Austin I think the gto needs to be a drift car spoon I can't wait to see you shred with Jimmy in the 86. Good job guys 👏 👏 👏

Brian's car sounds SO good 🤤

Seeing this thing on track on saturday after watching all the videos was awesome. car was ripping. shouts to spoon for coming over and saying whats up, after I said hi.

Brian is a sick man behind the wheel🔥 and man finally jimmy is in a worthy setup can’t wait for those proper tyres and small improvements

The shot/scene at 36:23 is insane! Best clip in the video, looks so raw! Props to whoever took that ❤️‍🔥

I've said it before, and I'll continue to say it. This is the most well rounded group of guys. Everyone adds something to the team and everyone adds quality of character and skill to the channel. I get way too amped every time a new video is posted

Spoon being so hyped as passenger just shows how much he cares for Jimmy and his success

Those revs @2:30 combining the whine of the LSA and the LS3 exhaust are just orgasmic. It may be a dirty little secret for all of the 2J boys, but the rest of us openly admit how much we love it.

This channel and builds elevated soo much since adding Spoon to the crew and payroll

Get you a spoon if you don't got one because this man is an army all packed into one 👏👏

The drifting skill level has risen so much. The nz trip, japan trip, ire land tripS and Dubai trip have been awesome to watch and see jimmy go from being so nervous in d1nz to dooring so many people in this video in a fresh build.

Dawg, your driving has improved ten-fold in the last 2 years. Your trip to Japan really set in your confidence. Its so sick to see you shredding in a car that you don't have to fight and allows you to just express your talent

Event looked killer. I still think as a driver there is no better feeling than tandeming with buddies while you have a buddy in the car; everyone having the time of their life. I miss it so much.

Grant, Jimmy, and Brian having basically the same cars is such a vibe. Next years Final Bout team!

Videos like this is why this channel is addicting, seeing the work pay off *chef’s kiss”

Jimmy, you finally have a car that reflects your potential ,which you are able to show what you're really capable of, I'm proud :D :D Greetings from the boys from Poland :)

Do not stop the E36 content! The motivation to keep working on my E36 is through the roof. Keep it Team Oakes!

Excited as fuck for this one, boys! You guys killed it on the 36. Thing looked mean at the track.

Spoons smile says it all! That car is so smooth and watching how much less handbrake you used after 3 laps and just let the car flow through transition was really cool to watch!! Stoked for you to be in such a capable car! Great job crew!

The drifting was great can’t believe you guys put this together in a week keep Killin it 👌🏼

You’ve gotten so much smoother and coordinated with your hands while drifting in such a short time. Also the fact that you were basically shaking down a car.

Well now that the Beamer has reaching the Ultra Instinct form LMAO So nasty! on the next episode of Jimmy Oakes! 😁

out of all jimmy's mates grant is hands down the best bloke and not saying the other aren't but grant is just the type of guy you want around, always pumped for his mates and giving tips and just being a good bloke

Love seeing Jimmy, Brian and Grant driving together some sick driving from everyone ,but those runs were my favorite to watch. Glad the boys were able to get this thing together for such an awesome event. Shout out spoon especially mans such a hard worker and the payoff is we get to see sick builds like this.

originally i was unsure about brian’s exhaust but that thing makes an ls sound german. that sound matches the car perfectly, bravo.

I want to say something but I have no words just sitting here smiling watching everything pure happy emotion, killing it out there Jimmy and the Oakes fam!

"T-Pain yeeted my bumper off track" LMFAO yeah never thought I'd hear Jim say that. 🤣

So excited for Jimmy. Great job, your driving is amazing. Props to you and your team for making this happen so quickly!

Not gonna lie I forgot how good and consistent of a driver bhall is nice to see him on track

The in-car footage and audio is wild! That Scream!!! Is it the supercharger or the boys screamin'!!!! The smoke show Now!! Dang! Respect 🙏to all the crew

This was cool to watch. Don’t change alignment before you mess with different tires/pressures. Keeping the car easy to drive will help you much more in the long run.

I knew this car would kill it! Perfect shake down!

Congrats on the success guys.....Some of those later runs with Brian were extra spicy Jimmie! I've got to go see if Larry posted any shots yet. Spoon needs some time to finish his build... I can't wait to see him join the fray!

So happy for everyone at oaks garage!Jimmy and spoon you guys killed this build!Its just going up for this build!🔥🔥🔥🔥

So stoked to see the e36 ripping. This beast is going to take Jimmy's drifting to an even higher level

hell yea, one of my favorite builds so far... keep killing it yall

THIS. This video is what i needed for motivation for my turbo 302 e36 drift build. Its so amazing to watch the amount of enjoyment you guys get as a group of friends just drifting around. Insane amounts of props to you guys for this build!

Jimmy, Adam, Grant, tommy, I’m so proud of the whole CT crew you guys are doing so good each of you have came such a long way. Wishing you all the best and even more success been a supporter of the crew since 2014 💯

At first the automotive purist in me was like, no don't take away the BMW-ness of the car. This powertrain makes sense now and I love how it transformed the BMW. More power, less drivetrain stress, less RPM for the same if not greater results is full of win.

Loose or not you let that thing eattttttt! The tandems with B Hall nuts! So great to see you guys finally tandem again. It is now a true comp car! Spoon is a Fn goat too. On point with all the BS and just letting you focus on driving. Rj is the concession god, Steve the words of wisdom, and Austin killing production. Whole crew is a vibe!

Sooo good!! Very cool to see Jimmy so happy and enjoying the drive after so many difficult track days. Very proud of the team! BTW one of the best event videos the channel has posted not because of any specific details of the event, but because of the energy that comes through the video. Keep up the awesome work, guys!

I'm just so happy for these guys. they've all worked hard and seeing the smile on jimmy's face just makes it all worth it. proud dad moment right here!

Dude this was the right move. I haven’t seen you drive this well before. This drivetrain is going to be a game changer. Keep this as your full comp car. Throw a quick-change and GForce 4 speed and you’ve got yourself a damn good comp car.

This content is almost too good to be free! What an awesome outcome, love to see Jim happy with the E36 finally!

From watching spoon come in and almost make jimmy cry for cutting up the e36 to the point it and they are now.. fun journey

Honestly so hyped for you Jimmy. Incredible driving. Hyped for you and the team. Hell yeah!

The best weekend ❤❤❤ love you guys. See you soon

Holy fuck dude! The car is a weapon and ur driving this year has gone too the moon. Recruit Brian and Grant for team Oakes 🔥 Greetings from Sweden!🇸🇪

So proud of the team! Amazing to see what you guys did in such a short about of time. Also I think the bright wheels need to stay!

You guys are bloody awesome I’m so stoked to see how well the car done. Be proud boys you knocked it out of the park with this one. And was awesome seeing you guys driving with the bro guy you guys treated him and looked after him like he was one of your own and it’s awesome to see. Can’t wait for your next nz trip 🤙🏼

Y’all have absolutely created a monster! So good! Even though you’re not where you want to be grip wise, your proximity is on point!

Congratulations with this successful build this was the best vid ever. Loved how smooth the car drove and watching you and Brian shredding together was amazing

Keep fucking sending this missile, the progress you`ve done in it in just 2 days is amazing. Hell of a team to pull off this build so fast and have it do so well first time out, insane!

I love how every new video of Jimmy driving his absolute ass off seems like the best example of Jimmy's driving we've ever seen. Just shows that all this practice has really been paying off, and now that the E36 is finally happy I know we've only seen the beginning. Jimmy's become one hell of a driver.

AUSTIN! Your work does *not* go unnoticed! If it wasn’t for you this would be much shorter and consist of the odd GoPro clip because Jimmy forgot to record😂. THANKS AUSTIN!

I love the way you guys diagnosed the issue, fixed it and just went out and nailed some sick runs 🤙

I couldn’t wait to see that machine shred ! And it was worth the wait!! That was so so sick ! Truly amazed how far you and the gang came from drew tube to spoon tube ! You guys are killing it!! Keep it up !! And that was dope to see you and Brian shredding it together !! 🤟🏼 need more of that.

Only RU-vid channel that I feel like I’m living vicariously through. I’ll be there one day

Miss Brian being in the video so amazing to see you all drifting together been along time waiting to have you guys both in the BMW's and it's been worth the wait

I’m speechless. You guys absolutely killed it!shout out to the team!!!!!!!

Seeing Jimmy and Bryan fry together is a good feeling!

FINALLY! Been waiting for this video ever since y'all posted the finished build and dyno videos, lmao. Got a sneak peek on Adam's channel, but not much obviously. This is amazing!

So happy for y’all been along time coming killer driving

Man that was my favorite video in a long time. So much fun! I absolutely love your passenger’s reactions, it reminds me how FUN and awesome drifting is. The B-roll of the car show was SICK, perfect music and angles, Austin. Had to pause a bunch lol!

So happy to see the LS performing so well. And so happy to see B enjoying his car!

I'm super happy for you and the team. This build is so good. ❤

Yes sir. ❤❤❤ let’s F ing go. Asked for a spot on the wall an got the trunk!!!!!!!!! Can’t believe it. Love the hole team you guys are unbelievable. And unstoppable!!!!

You guys have done a great job so stoked for all of you can’t wait to see you put a quick change in it in the near future 😉

i was just so happy to hear the turn around in your own words Jim as i know if a car dose not sit right or act right it plays on your mind so your boost of satisfaction and confidence must feel so rewarding

Bro this is so dope seeing all the boys drifting together is so sick. And bro B Hall is a monster at drifting he’s so smooth with it it’s crazy

Grant asking about health insurance right after joining the team was f***ing hilarious 😂

Man this car in this iteration is all you have desperately needed to keep going forward! Man I’m so pumped for what’s to come !

Love the vids bro, seeing you improve and get more and more confident is insane man, all love !

i am so happy to see Brian out there, that boy is killing that shit! good job jimmy and the crew, the e36 is a whole different beast now.

You performed so well for just a shake down on the car man! Can’t wait to see you dominate with the power you needed now!

Super killer job on the quick build, driving was amazing. And Brian killed it on those lead runs.

Steve is getting really good at the sponsored segments. And all the boys that helped get the e36 to grid life are crazy. All of you did fantastic and I came out great.🔥

Love the video quality / shots / angle , awesome work guy's also love the 40min videos keeo it up !

Unreal! You guys built an absolute weapon and in record time! Keep up the amazing work and cant wait to see spoons 86 build!

Wild machine dude! Great work by Grant, TJ etc for not spoiling the surprise for us on there Chanel’s 👌

Bruhh Grant is so funny 🤣🤣🤣 You got health insurance!!😂😂😂

Another banger from the Oakes garage team. Everybody killed it in this!

Awesome work guys u killed it. Steve u r the only one I don’t fast forward threw when u r talking about advertisement or merch drops or anything of that nature u kill it man

Hell yeah bro at the job site screaming and yelling for you!! Sick for it to do so well it's first outing you were killing it!! ❤❤

Finally had a chance to checkout this episode killer work on building such a rad machine can't wait to see what's too come. Red with yellow wheels and crystal tails slaps

I like that Jimmy makes his buddy do the sponsorship ad so it deflects the sell out vibration off him

Shout out to Rj for holding down the booth 👏

Damn dudes, so awesome to see! You've come so far, in the short few years I've been watching this channel, love how your content makes me feel like I'm one of the boys hanging out! Cheers Jimmy and the boys from Aus 🍻🇦🇺

These videos have been amazing to follow- inspiring stuff all around
