Drift Masters is next week and 2 days before our truck needs to leave for Round 1 in Spain, D1GP driver Ryusei Akiba's 900hp 2JZ Nissan Silvia S15 only landed at the docks in Dublin. Even though we only have 24hrs to get the car prepared mechanically and wrapped, we are thankful it arrived 40 days late, as it would have been in the fire at our Drift Games HQ.
It was just meant to be...
#driftgames #driftmasters #jdmcars #s15 #s15drift
Drift Games has changed my mentality as of lately, i was in a dark place not long ago but every time i felt like $hit, i would watch a video of yall and see how hard yall r pushing even after everything that happened! Thank you for keeping positive and thank yall for always lifting people up!! I believe in a few years yall r gonna be 10x better than yall were last year!!
Keep it going . You got it . Life keeps moving , always look to the positive side and you will make it . Keep your head up king !
In a similar position - lost everything in 2 days and moving across country now. Better things forward Always.
LFGOOO!!! 💪
it's easy to push positivity when you sell a hoodie for 150$ that will help them getting back on their feet for sure xD
@@nismojdm5950 sound for the positivity
pulling into wayne's was like a trip down memory lane. forward ever, backward never!
I am sad the way I found your channel was the fire video, but the way you're bouncing back and being as positive as possible is so inspiring!
ryusei's sim driving explains why he packed so many body kits lol! can't wait to see the 2 driving!!
Ryusei's S15 was so good in the original livery
exactly.
Boostar wrap is iconic af. But just hold that thought........
yea i was so dam disappointed when they removed the motherland livery
Don't sweat the petty stuff and don't pet the sweaty stuff!!! The whole Drift Games team is an inspiration, love you lads
Damn .... that yellow and green livery on Ryusei's car was SOOOOOOOOOOO SICK !!!
Not usually one for complex livery’s but oh my Lord these two look absolutely incredible!🔥🔥 a credit too everyone involved 👌🏼
Glad you like them!
That ship crash was seriously 2min from my house. Small world how something in my backyard affected things all the way out there.
What happened
@Prankster_OOF Don't remember the exact issue (I think it was mechanical failure but could be wrong) and caused the ship to lose control on approach to a motor vehicle bridge. Due to lack of control they collided with one of the supports and the bridge went down. It was a big deal in the U.S. a couple months ago.
The cars look absolutely insane!! It’s a pleasure to provide the sim footage, that track is fast!
Asetto corsa? or something else?
@@fishlexicyes assetto 🙌🏻
The yellow s15 looks unreal, fantastic video and cant wait for the reaction from the drivers!
"wow Ryusei packed a lot of bodykits" Ryusei on sim 🚘✴️🚘 😅 That boy's aggressive he is going to be a riot to watch!
That yellow/green paint job giving off the old city Chevrolet days of thunder vibe ❤
Good to hear! Onwards and upwards my soldiers!
The drift games team cars look amazing, can’t want to see them drift. Great video.
Watching the clip of the boys in the sims driving together was a truly.creative clip. I watch a lot of assetto and beam ng content on here so watching that clip was so sick to see. You guys are bouncing back even with minor hiccups. Just remember that just because there's a speed bump the road continues after it. Knocked this out of the park. Here's to the glow up and bounce back of the year, possibly even the decade. Cheering from the side lines the best that I can. Cheers guys. Can't wait for the next video
Ryusei's S15 originally livery looked so cool tbh
DriftGames coming back stronger and better than ever 👌 # DriftGames 2.0 👍
Both cars look amazing, the guys at Precision Graphics did an excellent job on the cars🔥👌
I have been watching since the covid days, you've given me inspiration and Dave's car hoarding has bitten into me , i have four cars now, 2020 i had one. After your fire incident i was bit off mentally because i know how much you've put into projects , but seeing these videos after the incident, you guys climbing back up and striving, has affected me in a good way, never give up, never surrender, no matter how bad the odds look like. You keep on doing whatcha doing for all your hearts content. Keep on pushing :)
I’m gonna be honest, when I first saw the renders of the matching livery’s I was a little underwhelmed. But seeing them on the actual cars changed my whole perspective, I actually love that blue fade so much.
Everyone on this team and at precision are incredible. Great job guys
Your production cuts are on a nother level. Dde. Ain’t got shit on you. Respect both ways
Can we all take a moment to appreciate the morale and determination of the DG team, against the odds still keeping the wheels turning and keeping drifting going You guys are awesome 👌 ❤
That blue slivia is just stunning. Gona look unreal at DM
Drift Games did a dream of a job on both cars. You guys keep me going. There was a point in my life that I wanted to give up. But what you guys have been through make me think about giving up everyday of my life. I take your saying in never give up. I believe I can make it from day to day. I lost my mom and always wanted to give up on life. As I watched your videos n became a subscriber to your channel you guys have help me get through days I wouldn’t even think about getting through. Thanks to all you guys this has made a BIG difference in my life now it makes me think twice about giving up now. It makes me think about never giving up as you guys say. Stay strong better days to come bless all of us these rise once again thank you very much.
DriftGames yous are coming back stronger and better than ever 👌 and the ultimate DriftGames Team is coming together cant wait to see all the absolute shredding keep up the great work guys 👍
Dude, at 15:25 100% this is going to become even more and more popular since the sims are getting better as well. Thats so cool to see 🤙
Fantastic graphics , looking cool with those two cars together . Ones to watch great work all 👍🏁🏁
😍😍😍unbelievable work 👌🙌🙌🙌🤩🤩well done to everyone 🏎️🏎️🏎️
Oh wow, those two Silvias look amazing 👍🏼👍🏼 all the best for Drift Masters in Spain 😊
Nice to see you did not loose your motivation. Keep on the good work guys.
Big ups to the lads getting this liked together with all of the other stuff going on in the background, onwards and upwards for the Drift Games team
You are guys are so talented!! Keep up the hard work!!!
Ryusei's S15 is perfect
Well you know what the new ID should incorporate … the car and a phoenix
Akiba Ryusei San's car looks amazing.. And I wouldn't really go for lighter greens on cars usually. So glad everything is going ahead with you guys and running a team at Drift Masters. It'll be hella tough but you also have a hellofa team.
You guys are truly an inspiration not letting the fire hold you back always keep pushing through no matter what hardships you've been through I salute you boys and best of luck at driftgames
That blue fade is so sick, two fantastic looking cars
I couldn’t watch the videos of the building I just couldn’t but I had to watch them eventually. You guys are so positive with all that’s happened. I almost gave up on my build… literally had a fb draft for it. Watched the videos and gave me the confidence to continue and to keep your head up. I love u guys keep it up!
Love the cars boys.. Looking great I think that young Conner Falvey is looking like the next James Deane.. Wish the whole Team a great Start up to the challenge ahead..
The comeback is on its way this time starting with an S15 and a whole bunch of new people wish you luck guys
Go show Spain how it's done, cars look fab wishing the whole drift games team all the success ❤ can't wait to see you all at mondello again 😊
Time is like a leaf in the wind. Either its time well spent or time wasted. Yall aint wasting it. Keep up the amazing work lads and always stay po'ed up
Wraps look epic
Amazing work . Cars look fantastic !!!!
It's nice to see the smiles back in the team.. Good luck in drift maters... Can't wait to watch 24 season.. Going to be mad... Love the chanel keep up the hard wrk...
I'm a long covid hauler and have my life taken away from me and basically barely can do anything. Seeing you growing with these trials and tribulations, I'm glad you see that even though its materialistic items, you move forward with life and make the best out of this. Remember in life, items comes and goes, but its what we learn from these lessons and what you do afterwards.
was so gutted to find out about the fire guys... May you rise from the ashes! love the content and keep up the hard work. Good things happen to good people. x
Seriously yo're all kicking ass, Cars look awesome. Well done everyone looking forward to Drift Masters this year anticipation is... Its going to be awesome 😁😁
Ryusei's car is the first time I've seen a Big Country Lab's wing on a real car, and not just in Forza lol, beautiful cars and love the matching liveries.
The best things in the life come from the ashes. Stay strong and hang on guys. My prayers are with you.
You're all the absolute definition of perseverance. Was great meeting you in Mondello last weekend, and our Never Give Up shirts arrived today. Amazed you've managed to get merch flowing out so soon after everything. Top lads, will be following Drift Masters closely!
Damn that thumbnail HIT DIFFERENT.
There such a inspiration they keep moving forward (not trying quote tj hunt) but in this case there actually moving forward after the fire. They guys will alway get my viewership to see what u guys went through and still pushing forward I love it
Cars look amazing 🔥🔥🔥 well done to everyone involved!
It’s amazing to see the amount of positivity and gratitude in your latest videos, after losing almost every single thing your entire team had worked for a decade to acquire and build I feel like 95% of people in your position would probably have cancelled the team’s season and just went their separate ways, but not Drift Games… I can see the pain and disappointment in Josh for sure but I’m certainly thrilled and thankful that you guys are strong enough to push forward to continue bringing us the best drifting content across the pond, I continue to pray for this season to be so successful that it launches your ability to rebuild and reach a whole new level for your team! God bless you guys ❤🇺🇸
Keep up the grind fellas, I look forward to seeing every episode and brings joy to my otherwise bleak days.
This can only get better now! Good luck!!! 😊
Dave that’s a great idea for a New T-shirt! Drift Games/ Against All Odds! Great Job Everyone!!! Glad to see Both Cars Are Ready For Drift Masters!! A podium finish for either one would be AMAZING!! But I’m honestly with the Irish Side, So Come On Connor!! ☘️🇮🇪🫶
You guys are putting on a master class in making lemons into lemonade. Never give up!!! Great episode and cant wait to see you guys on the podium in spain!!!

Definitely rooting for Ryusei this year, his style something else. Every other episode will bring tears to my eyes after that fire. Will appreciate more your videos now.
After watching Akiba chase in that Assetto clip, I see why he shipped so many body panels. 😂 Cool video guys.
Drift Games inspires me to push through my now seemingly trivial trials and tribulations. THANK YOU FOR THE INSPIRATION TO PUSH THROUGH EVEN HARDER 🙏 🙌 ❤️!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When the boss tells you we can have a pizza party 😂 17:40 Awesome work and attitude! Great to see you guys already bouncing back 💪
Nice job boys, the cars are looking minty
I’m so sorry to hear about the fire man. My heart breaks for you guys and I still feel sick to my stomach…. Fuuuuck that sucks. 😭
