The Fake NASCAR Driver | Up To Speed 

i bet somebody would if they had more information about this

With Will Farrel as the driver 😂

@@laprepper as much as I love Ferrell...that’s a bad idea.

Logan Lucky?

I've got a strong feeling it would be a really great movie

😂🤣

You wanna know who else snuck into a nascar race and out qualified real racers? MY MOM!

i mean he was 36th out of 40 and the other 4 could've dnf'd

BTW, it says L. W. "Wright blew his engine on lap 13." rather than black flag - not sure of the exit from the Winston 500.

@@engineerisengihere44 cuz your mom's a legend homie 👉

I think that title is reserved for Thomas Fitzpatrick, who stole a plane while drunk on a bet and landed it in Manhattan TWICE

It blows me away that the guy didn't just run with the $130k and disappear in the first place. Like dude wtf you really wanna drive a nascar that bad?

Hy 😂

“You can’t just start racing out of no where” L.W Wright:”HOLD MY BEER!”

I think it would be that guy that stole an airplane and parked it outside the pub he made the bet at

yea $50 is so worth a racecar semi an all lol

good point though.

They just say hold my beer not challenge accepted

Literally

This point is 100% fair

yea im guessing he was appart of the 80s satanic/pedo elite group that was and still is running 90% of the world lol

Well if he was actually good at racing maybe. Imagine if he actually won the race.

@@descentmvm trump?

Lap me if you can!!!

This is crazy, and Catch me if you can is not based on a tru story even if that is what we have been told.

@@ToreHansen got anything to back that claim up? There are lots of interviews with the real frank abignal..

@@richiedagger733 One of those RU-vid channels that diggs into movies and tv-series.

@@richiedagger733 Found it, and he was in prision lots of the time the time shit is based on a tru story. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fXEiRromBrI.html

D.B. Cooper's witness drawings don't really match L.W. Wright, and D.B. was also said to be a man in his late twenties, which means Wright would be late thirties, it's possible, but in Wright's photos I wouldn't say he was late thirties. But still a great fan theory!

man i had the same thought an posted above b4 i seen your post

Somehow I don’t know who D. B. Cooper is, but I sure as hell heard the lyrics “F**k D. B. Cooper and the money he took,” in a rap song before, matter of fact one of my favorites.

@@rissu8573 education is key to life

Sorry I meant rock

Really funny that "stealth" is hidden behind the "Read more"

dont forget, cool = 420 so you never lose your cool

"I sneak into the Winston 500" rolls for stealth - Nat20

This is what happens when you put all your power points into one stat.

Nah, charisma = 1000

Seriously. It would be a pretty sick story.

This will be a heck of story, and they will maybe report us to nascar....

@OPEN PAGE,,,,, 👇😍 shut up

Now I'm expecting a VinWiki on this

What's up checkmark!

Can you give some more detail to the story from your grandfather's perspective ? This is an interesting story and would like to hear more about it.

No way!?!

Sick trust fund, I bet

never forget the intimidator, do it for dale!

Noice mate.

Thats austin dillon

STRANGE music😏

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 YESS

EXACTLY!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣😎

SO TRUE 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ayyyyyyy

but mr english would solve it anyway

I would totally watch this

I'd rather see Mr Bean in the Pentagon than 'go brandon' in the White House ... !

There's a little movie series about it known as Johnny English

Pre 9/11, sometime in the 90s we stopped on a road trip at the pentagon parking lot to take a piss in the bushes by a chain-linked fence. I like to tell people I pissed on the pentagon.

Maybe its the ceaseless ads and promos

Maybe because its a holiday and everyone tied one on last night. Im sharing good story

Their best Up to Speed episodes (most of them) have been about cars or the manufactures. I appreciate and enjoy the different ideas, but not everyone is excited about an Up to Speed on a story. Especially seeing this could had been posted on their Past Gas podcast YT channel.

I'm always elated when I see a new episode of Up To Speed. Up to Speed and the original B2B are the reasons I fell in love with this channel. Not having Up to Speed and Jeremiah taking B2B and making it the new Science Garage instead of showcasing specific cars made me feel less connected to the channel and the people behind the camera, so seeing a return from Up to Speed made me really stoked. I really do hope James continues to talk about cars and manufacturers, as those are obviously the point of this show, but I wouldn't be too upset with a few short stories here and there. Also, on the topic of the ads, I don't really have a problem with them. I think people are missing the fact that this is a company that has to keep profits up in order to give us this content. I enjoy all the ads (except for the ones with Jeremiah and the animated ads. My opinion on Jeremiah is, of course, just an opinion. I see that a lot of people really like him on the channel, so I wouldn't want him pulled off, and he is warming up to me a bit, I just don't care for his awkward humor and excessive delivery.) While I like some of the changes, I wish B2B was still B2B and Jeremiah had his own show and I wish Up to Speed would be the way it was before. Money Pit's a great show btw. Hope someone from Donut was reading this, hope it wasn't Jeremiah. If it was Jeremiah, no hate bro you put on a show that, seeing from the comments on your videos, it looks like most fans of the channel enjoy.

the "we bough 34 different useless car products from ________" videos are getting a little old and it seems like they're every other video

Same I love the up to speed series

Legend has it he used the semi to smuggle beer from Texarkana to Atlanta.

@Leonardo Santuario don't worry he's looking for a free cookie. Too bad granny drank to much prune juice.

I like the idea of long stories being in 2 parts.

Apparently the guy that found him and interviewed him is holding a lot of info he got back until he can find a good deal to make a lot of money off the interview. The main thing he said that his real name was Larry Wright and he showed the guy the suit he wore in the race.

There is an anime on Netflix called Great Pretender and there's an episode where they scam a pair of brothers who organize airplane races and race without knowing that much about flying.

He would've been able to front the team himself... Also, DB Cooper was supposed to be a white guy. This dude was/is African American.

@@davidkline4372 DB Cooper money was useless because of the serial numbers! So, you’re saying: it has to be someone that can change ethnicity? It’s gotta be a T-1000! Good work helping me solve this! I “hit” a wall before, but I think this was the “key” element, glad we finally found out the truth before getting “black flagged”?

@@davidkline4372 a wright of color... when was the- EAZY E eazy e's real name was eric lynn wright lynn wright wright I CRACKED THE CASE LADIES GENTLEMEN AND BEYOND

I hope those hard times come to an end soon. Trust me I'm right there with you. I too watch certain RU-vid videos to help get me through the difficult days I'm facing. Anyway, just wanted to let you know someone gives a shit and sympathizes with your situation.

yeah it’s brand new to people who aren’t into the niche, that’s the whole point of them making a video about it.

I guess Emp is a NASCAR youtuber now

@@Anagusame well he's not the only one to tell the tale nascar has on there RU-vid channel and some others but knowing donut they will do a good job

@@annoyingoranger100 so you both agree then. Nice

"yeah, well, i saw it on a rerun." "what's a rerun?"

There was an oil crisis? Donut should at least mention it once in awhile. Seems like something that would tie into a lot of car stories.

@@Diesel257 i know right!?

His real name was Larry Earnest Wright.

when did they change the format? i didn't even notice, what changed?

@@rorymacpherson4755 i just read that Donut media was bought by The Drive... Or they have the same parent company now... Could be related to the change in format...

@@davidkline4372 What's The drive?

😭😭

Maybe yes, of course because the race fans put some 2JZ Engine under the hood is probably a lot of performance cars in every season....

Super ugly game

I wish I could put a V8 back in it.

@@muhammadwahyuhidayat21498 im speak da engrish

I mean...he ain't wrong tho

right? should have been Carl Edwards

@@TheBlackSantron Nah, you trigger people by saying Logano's the best driver.

@@karelpgbr Kenny Harvick has them all beat

No. Just...... NO! Gordon definitely is NOT the greatest nascar driver ever. He's a whiny, spoiled, overrated, underhated, pretentious, yuppy, douchebag brat who happened to get lucky by being paired with a team that is infamous for cheating under the radar and nothing happening to them when they get caught. The dude (if you can even call him a dude) literally breaks down in tears and throws a temper tantrum if he doesn't win.The only people who could possibly be any worse of a human being than Gordon are his God awful, equally pretentious and douchey fans. The honorable distinction of Greatest NASCAR Driver of All Time belongs to none other than Dale Earnhardt Sr. and no, before you say it I'm not a Dale Jr fan either. As far as I'm concerned he betrayed his father and his father's legacy by having the audacity to sign with hendrick motorsports after he left DEI. Don't get me wrong, I understand his decision to leave DEI. I also understand his decision to not sign with his father's old team, RCR. He wanted to do his own thing and establish his own legacy while honoring his father's while not following directly in his father's footsteps. I get it. I fully supported him making those decisions. But to sign on to be teammates with the likes of Jimmie fricking Johnson and (gag) Jeff (retch) Gordon (projectile vomit) was just inexcusable and a disgrace to the Earnhardt name.

He died in a car accident. What's ironic is that it was a Pagani that crashed into him.

@nascarmanhistory being one of the others? That’s how I found out about this initially.

People's attention spans generally require someone yelling at them alot, to keep us from looking at our phones. Take your judgment elsewhere

@@JK-gm6kk hot take

WHERE? WHEN?

@@Donut Geez it was around 2006??? In Shreveport.

Whaaaaa

@@ScottSchmott we must know more

Tell us more!

Yehhh ✌️🤩🥂❤️🥂🙌

cool

What's the difference in the two?

@@joshuagibson2520 the old one they would get actual builds and other cool cars on set and go thru them and talk about all the unique things about them. Now it's just talks about the technical aspects of things. Shows how/why things are done in cars and racing. At least that's what I've seen in the few episodes, quit watching it when they changed it

@@TNtyer.slayer aaah. Okay. Thanks. I'll have to check out the old ones. Sounds awesome.

It's even easier now to con people with the internet and smartphone. Online scams have turned folks into multi billionaires.

hold up, whats the difference? I dont see it

Can you tell us more? Like a late picture of him or some proof?

@@abderrahmanelbakkali190 yeah i can come up with some proof. he's easy to find. I'll go over and take some current pics.

Whats that?
