This channel has been a hobby of mine since January 29, 2007. I usually like to upload some of the coolest things I’ve been able to record. Recently I have been doing track days as a therapeutic hobby. Now it has become a lifestyle. Eventually I plan on uploading content on my cars. Please feel free to subscribe, like, comment, and share!
AutoZam AZ-1 Exhaust
Quick clip of the exhaust and the first time hitting 9,000 RPM after break in. Haven’t posted much of this car but it has been heavily modified. If I find the time or you viewers want me to make a video on this car, I will gladly make one!

Losi 5ive T 2.0 Stock vs. Bartolone Exhaust
zhlédnutí 26KPřed rokem
Just a quick sound comparison between the stock exhaust and a Bartolone tuned pipe for the Zenoah G320RC in my stock Losi 5ive T 2.0. Bartolone makes a huge difference. Definitely wakes it up!
C4 ZR1 Intake Sound Comparison. Primary and Secondaries
zhlédnutí 353Před rokem
I got bored and bought a wireless microphone just to get any sort of sound if the intake of this car. First clip is with the power key at Normal. Second clip is the power key set to Full Engine Power. You can hear the difference when the secondaries open. The LT5 has a small 22mm primary throttle body. Hence the high pitch sound. Once that is at 80% open, the two larger 59mm or 63mm (can’t reme...
Audi RS3 Stock Intake Sound

Just a very quick clip of the stock intake sound of my car. It’s extremely muffled as you would expect. But at least you can hear something!
MK6 Golf GTI vs. RS3 Sedan Cold Start
zhlédnutí 359Před 5 lety
A quick video of both my cars doing cold starts in the morning! I may do a comparison video series on these two in the future! You’d be surprised at how similar these cars are in the little ways, despite them being from 2 different generations and nearly a decade apart. The VW is APR tuned with the APR branded Corsa Exhaust (turbo back). The Audi is bone stock. For now.

Another video of me using the filament winder! This is my second large motor that I have made and probably one of the most satisfying ones too! Enjoy!
Filament Winding: Mandrel With Domed End Caps
zhlédnutí 3,3KPřed 6 lety
Another video of me learning how to use a Galil Filament Winder. This time it was on a mandrel with domed end caps. For this I am still using dry carbon for trial runs. A few changes were needed after to refine the program as well as a few adjustments to the machine. Overall, everything ran smoothly. Enjoy this satisfying video! Please be sure to like and subscribe! Thanks!
Filament Winding: My First Attempt
zhlédnutí 29KPřed 6 lety
This is a video I made back in July 2016. A week prior to making this video I had no experience with a Galil Filament Winder. This is the first version of my program so it wasn't perfect. Getting used to the machine was the main objective. After adjusting the fiber band width and the head clearance, the next revision was much better. To make things more interesting, dry carbon on a Teflon coate...

This year has been by far the most incredible so far in terms track days for me. I'd like to thank every single person who helped me do some of the lap times I never thought possible from the beginning of the year. I managed to drop from a 1:35.35 down to a 1:32.03 from being consistent and learning better lines. Skip to 14:03 for the beginning of the fastest lap. This session was the best I ha...
Stock vs. Marchesini Wheels Lap Comparison

Here is a comparison between my two fastest laps so far with the stock wheels and the Marchesini wheels. Notice the change in direction is much faster with the Marchesini wheels. Cornering speed is much faster because I can feel what the bike is doing much better than before. I am aware that the times do not start at the exact same time but the videos at the beginning when I cross the start/fin...

Here is my own vlog/montage of the May 27-28th Southern Track Days event at JenningsGP. This track day by far was the greatest I've ever had in terms of performance. There were only 3 sessions where the fastest lap time was slower than my previous best set in November 2016. Every other session was faster. The biggest thing for me was the consistency in each session. I look forward to returning ...

This has been a long time coming type of mod to my 2014 Kawasaki Ninja 300 ABS SE. Marchesini M10RS Comp (Forged Aluminum) wheels. Next to the K-Tech Suspension, I would honestly say this mod is probably the next best thing I have done. Like the suspension upgrade, the wheels give you so much more feeling and confidence around the track. In this video, I did say after the first session I went a...

It still runs lol.
How is the mandrel removed after winding is done for the cylinder?
How is the mandrel removed in case there is a convex feature ?
fuck mate i would love to throw dust around all day with that

Whats name this tape blue?
I’m thinking of buying one only thing is that it will be my first gas Rc truck! I have plenty of Arma + traxxas cars an trucks just don’t want any problems with maintenance an starting issues? What do you recommend for gas vp Rc premixed fuels ! .???
They can be a pain in the ass to start at times. First thing I would do because as it gets run over and over, starting will be annoying. The Taylor RC starter is what I have. Makes it a lot easier. Make sure you also have spare spark plugs too. Sometimes it will just want to flood itself for no reason. But it consists of using a lighter, burn off the excess fuel on the plug then it will fire right up. The carb will eventually fail so get ready to get a Walboro with the "bearing mod". Stops the leaks. Detroit Performance RC, DDM, and Matt Olson Designs has a lot of spares you'll eventually need. As far as fuel goes, I actually buy TruFuel (non pre-mix in gray can) and then mix with Amsoil Dominator 2 stroke oil. Very good combination. You can get VP's 25:1 which is good but I think it's better to run what you can find locally. Do not use anything with ethanol. If you need a lot of help in knowing what to get, contact Dave from Hardcore RC. He gave me quite a lot of advice with my 5T
Thanks I appreciate all the information!@@GreggCesaroni
@@mmig2116 to answer another question about hard starting. So when I had issues of starting, I had an air filter on mine I thought was great but wasn’t. DT1 filter. With outerwear’s pre-filter. Sure it opened up a lot of air to the motor. But it was actually too restrictive for my modded carb. I think it was the pre-filter and it being a triple stage filter that made it just collapse. It’s a cone shape too so there’s that. I put on the MOD air filter with the outerwear’s pre-filter which you should always run. Even stock. I’ll tell you why below. Started it for the first time in a while yesterday. So much easier. Took 8 pulls. 3-4 on choke til it popped, then 4-5 til it started to idle. Why you should run a pre-filter even with stock intake. The way the stock body and cage are, it’s pretty open. So grass likes to flick up in to the body. And the entire chassis acts like a tray. They also have outerwear’s covers for the starter and engine case. Get those just to keep as much dirt and grass out of the flywheel. I have the 30° North body on mine now so I can run axle extenders. The front wheels are covered more so the grass doesn’t come in but not as much as it could be. Rear is more open. DDM sells these “fender liners” you bolt on to the cage and it stops the problem. Get a pipe and you will have to cut a slot for it. Or let it burn a hole through. Makes it easier. Never seen much grass inside since then. Honestly, keep the stock body nice and just buy the 30° North body. So much more durable.
Thanks so much I have dirt bikes so i understand about the air filters I appreciate it @@GreggCesaroni
This is a great comparison video, just what I was looking for. I know that tune pipes help the engine produce a lot more power however. I personally like the sound of the stock muffler. I am not going to be racing just bashing in my neighborhood, so the stock muffler is a great option for me.
Hi, would you please help me with how to take the baffle out of the akra exhaust please? Thanks
Box end wrench or spanner. Loosen the screw. Then take a pair of pliers and yank it out. If it’s a hex screw, grab the screw head with pliers and try to turn it
Could you feel any difference with the new pipe?
Yes. There’s a lot more power in the mid range and top end with this pipe
Awesome riding! Would you recommend the DRZ400 over Ninja 400 or R3? Intentions - track riding / canyon and some in City commute.
Thank you!!! I personally would recommend the Ninja 400 over the R3. But it is difficult for me to decide the DRZ400 over the Ninja 400. It mainly depends what you are looking for in a bike. Top end performance and speed on a track with good handling, Ninja 400. Low end power out of corners and great handling right out of the box, DRZ400. If you go with the Ninja and want better track performance, get ready to modify lol. Clipons, rear sets, brakes, suspension and definitely tires to start. Those will make it fun. If you want a track day toy not eligible for racing in a 400 class, you can go even more with the 400. Long story short, it all depends what you are looking for. My 300 can do commuting well. Before the track mods, it was comfy. Now, not so comfy but I don't like to commute with it for safety reasons...
@@GreggCesaroni Thank you for the information I really appreciated. What are your thought about 18 MT07?
@@jayrock497 I know someone who has one and she loves it! Personally, I haven't gotten to experience one so I can't say much about them. My friend did take it on the track and she had a blast!
@@GreggCesaroni Thank you cheers!
Can you upload the software to ggdrriver. :D 😅
Top carro 🚗 😊
wow randomly stumbled onto your channel Gregg. would be great to see you at the track when you get your bike back. I am totally stealing your line at turn 5-6 love it.
Trying to find the time to get back haha! As soon as it’s done I gotta break in the motor, then lose 20 pounds haha! I miss the track so much. It’s been almost 6 years
Hello I have to get a exhaust or a full system to make it backfire
If you want fire yes a full system. If you want just the pops you can use a slip on only. Ideally you should get a dyno tune.
@@GreggCesaroni oh man you replied after 7 years you are awesome 😎 thanks for the tip you got a new subscribe
@@GreggCesaroni oh thanks also I am 5 feet and new is it good for me I just bought my full gear
I got the same car same exhaust raw, and i am telling you , get ready for some rust lol. my entire thing is rusted even though i sprayed it with wd40 every time i take her out. so annoying.
I’m seeing a bit of it haha! Trying to keep this thing clean is a chore in itself lol. I don’t mind the rust that much. Just adds character haha
u have to clean it with wd40 and a scotch brite every ride. welcome to the 2 stroke world
Your supposed to clean it before you get it hot for the first time. When you touch it and it gets hot your oil from your fingers creates rust. Plus you need to clean it properly. Mine has no rust and have had it for a while
@ryguy9544 it's the salty sweat from fingers that catalyzes rust, oil does not. Rust = Fe2 +O3
Chique carro 🚗
Is this worth buying or do you think a new version with reverse will be coming any time soon
Absolutely! You definitely should buy one! Now if there ever is a version 3, I don't see how they could put a reverse in without it adding a bit of complexity. It can be done but then it would require a whole transmission vs. the simple center diff. I typically run mine in open areas. Only once I said to myself "looks like we are walking..... haha". But with that being said, 3.0 will probably have slight changes over 2.0. Dave from Hardcore RC has 1.0 and 2.0 and he's told me there are a lot of similarities. Just the angles of the center driveshafts are different. He threw in the Zenoah G320 in his 1.0. Stock engine is the 26 or 29cc. Practically the same as his 2.0 before he put in an OBR 34cc. When or if 3.0 comes out, I'm pretty sure you can do the conversions. It's like my Arrma Kraton V4 and me doing the full EXB diff conversion from the V5
@@GreggCesaroni great expertise input. 3.0 might have a reed engine but anyway I want to get my hands on one of these because in California they're in the process of banning the sale of small engine stuff and I don't know if this will fall in that category. Electric RC I will always be able to buy.
@@doublem6027 I bet you they might fall in to that category. It’s such a stupid law. I’d buy one now if I were you. Just in case
@@GreggCesaroni definitely buying one before that law comes in. Waiting for a sale this Holiday season lol
@@doublem6027 i’ve got one that i’m looking to sell just broke a front arm. don’t have time to use it anymore
if only the mic wasn't a potato
Old GoPro lol
we also can do it, believe me!!
Question im from spain can i use the akrapovic exsahust in the streets?
I don't know about the laws in your country but I'd imagine you can. It does come with a silencer pipe which makes it real quiet
I'm not gonna lie, I have the same bike and the popping with the fire had me dying 😭🤣😭💀
As soon as I went with a catless header it became that bike’s signature haha! In person it’s really loud hahaha!
@@GreggCesaroni nice, I've had mine three years now, was my first street bike. I'll be trading it in soon for a FZ-09 or GSSX-S 750
@@az_pit_viper4270 I’ve kept mine since 2014 lol. Main reason being it’s the most fun you’ll ever have on a track. Just get new suspension. Stock stuff is deadly. I refuse to upgrade to a bigger bike unless it’s an Aprilia RS660. Plus I wouldn’t ever get rid of mine. There’s so much done to it!
@@GreggCesaroni did you get check engine light?
@@johnbuck13 Nope! Only time you'd see a check engine light on that bike is if there is an issue with the fuel injection. Mine did not come with an O2 sensor.
6:17 that sound 🤩
Sounds similar to my Two Bros exhaust. Really unique sound from these 300s, such a fantastic bike.
what rain gear you got over your leathers?
Request PROSPEED..😎😎👍👍
He deserves a thumbs up for wearing full gear. Good video too
Supercharger or no supercharger?
Supercharged
You can't hear it??
That timing chain be like
Can you tell me the winding speed and helix angle?
That I actually do not remember
Bro did bought that fairing kit from ebay?
Hi. Nice work man. You are (here) winding dry for trial run. Are you now able to winding wet? Where are you located the impregnation device? And how generate the thread pre-tension?
We use pretow for all things now. Resin is already in the carbon filament at a set amount. Usually within less than 1% of each other. Won’t say what the exact percentage is for obvious reasons. It’s much cleaner, consistent, and isn’t time sensitive. I can go to work with a clean white shirt and come home with a clean white shirt after an entire day of winding. This video was when I was learning how to do the basics of filament winding at 21 years old. Learning how to program turnarounds and different wind angles. As far as tension, both my machines use pulleys on load cells which goes to a controller, then to a motor which adds tension on each roll of carbon. The motor applies a torque going in the opposite direction. Both machines work the same way for tension and operation but my newer machine is much more precise, consistent, and much more forgiving. The tension is controlled within the software of the machine. Also much safer too. If it senses a break, it immediately pauses the program. This machine you see here runs a separate controller. You constantly have to watch out for a break. It’s a long story with that one which I’m not gonna get in to. Hope this answers your questions!
❤❤❤😢🥺ninja is love.....
Hey mate how are you getting your bike to shoot flames
Not a good view of 2nd party from can and very disturbing Wind blast Sound #ripearphones 💔 ♥️

Yo I wonder if mine shoots fire cause like it sure sounds like it on some of the back fires but I don’t have friends to show me
Horrible
Mine look nowhere near that bright and clear despite having nice D1S bulbs. I guess it's time for a full restore and projector lens cleaning.
What machine is this? And what control software do you use? Please respond. Thanks
Filament winder! Control software on this us actually Mach 3 or 4 if I recall. CNC. I don't use this machine anymore because I have a McClean Anderson Super Hornet Filament Winder in my new shop. That uses motion files which I cannot explain how it works. That uses Flexwind. It's much more precise but it works the same way.
@@GreggCesaroni Ah ok! About how much did your new machine cost?
@@enternal_sly5443 I don’t have the exact answer to that but quite a lot of money lol. Well worth the investment though. It gets to the point where it’s how good do you want your part, how consistent do you want your machine to run.
@@enternal_sly5443 I’m not saying what I started with is horrible by any means. It’s a great way to start and understand how to program a filament winder. Because going from Cadfil + Mach 3 to SimWind + FlexWind, it was easy. The older machine just required a bit more in depth tweaking. My experience with Cadfil has always been great and I still recommend it if you are building your own filament winder. Andrew will get you set up with everything you need. When it comes to technical parts, my old machine just couldn’t do it. The software on the other hand could.
@@GreggCesaroni Cool! What was your old machine? I have been wanting to get a filament winder. I was able to get an Xwinder for my university's rocketry club, but that thing is clanky and hard to get good parts made. I want one that is fairly consistent at a decent price.
This is way too late for this vid but my ninja has a slip on yoshimura can I buy headers and still use my yoshi slip on? Will it fit?cheers
Pure 60% throttle sound
I am needing help with the Restoration of my Apollo Ascent Engine nozzle extension . I will have a mandrel that needs too be wound fiber for the Structural overwrap. It is 34” on the bottom and about 17” on the top and about 34” tall. How hard would it be to do this?
It shouldn't be difficult but it depends on your machine's capabilities. Mainly it would be a non-linear wind. That to me separates okay machines to great ones.
@@GreggCesaroni how much tension is there on the fibers when winding?
@@FirstLast-tx3yj A fair amount. I can't say the exact number. For that one I actually don't remember
@@GreggCesaroni so is the tension adjustable? What are the minimum and maximum values?
@@FirstLast-tx3yj yes they are adjustable. Even while the program is running. Usually it’s measured by load cells and the controller will try to maintain actual value to the specified value. The actual maximum all depends on how much the payout head can take. Divide that by however many tows you are running. Every machine I’ve used with the exception of one goes up to 20 pounds per tow. So 0-20. The one you see in that video can. But it doesn’t like it. The head was optimized for a number less which I can’t say in case they are using that currently. Most of the time you don’t go that crazy. It’s usually what ever gets the fibers to spread the best.
That height spoils the look of the bike. You should go for a bigger monster. Otherwise good effort 👍
Sounds incredible. C4 ZR1s are just criminally underrated World Record setting cars. Crazy how affordable they still are. Yours is just bonkers, congrats.
Nice exhaust
