We turned our BMW E36 Rally Car into a Drift Car with overfenders, an angle kit, and the sickest Work wheels we could find. But can we drift all of Apple Valley Speedway in it?

It would be logical to have more clearance between their wheels and fenders but I guess they'd rather have suspension that looks like the car got stepped on.

@Hype679 9 месяцев назад

@@bwofficial1776 Past a certain point, you need an angle kit like they show for wheel travel anyway. A lot of them are adjustable. Also, a common thing with drift setups is more camber in the front than the rear. It looks stupid, probably, but it does work.

The content isn't really getting better though. I want to see the journey, the struggle of building and modifying the car and only then, the glorious result of all the hard work they did. This video is just a quick Happy Meal kinda thing, so short that it's basically a montage, all in order to quickly get to the payoff and keep all the ADHD people interested. That sucks. That's not how us, the viewers connect and get to know and love the hosts and the cars. It feels too impersonal and soulless. Love the stuff they used to do like Up to Speed and the original Money Pit. This video here is more like something you might watch half way through on tiktok while mindlessly scrolling to kill boredom.

@omgf0wtf 9 месяцев назад

I think it is it's uniqueness that "killed" it. While it is a cool idea and definitely more special than just another drift car, it is surely harder to think of content for it. I mean they have done plenty with the rally build, they have shown us how to build it. Realistically speaking, there is definitely a wider audience behind drifting than there is behind the rally stuff, at least here on youtube. It kinda sucks that they didn't do more with the rally build, but I'd not say that they are "hitting new lows", just because they changed their mind on what they want to do with one of their cars.
