    About Papadakis Racing
    The Papadakis Racing team began drifting in 2004 and is the most winning team in Formula Drift history, earning the 2021, 2022 and 2015 championship titles with driver Fredric Aasbo, as well as back-to-back championships with driver Tanner Foust in 2007 and 2008.
    This season, Fredric Aasbo returns to defend his title in the Rockstar Energy Toyota GR Supra, while Ryan Tuerck also returns to the team to drive the Toyota Corolla hatchback.
    Team owner Stephan Papadakis is a legend of sport-compact racing who began building his reputation in the 1990s with the first front­-wheel­ drive, tube-­chassis drag car in the U.S. The team earned multiple records and championships in the discipline, turning in elapsed times and trap speeds previously thought unattainable in front­-drive drag cars. Papadakis' successes in front­-wheel drive were matched by his efforts in rear-­wheel drive when he campaigned just the fifth car to join the NHRA's Sport Compact 200 MPH club.

    The car is perfect because it isn't. It's not a show car, it's a driver. Man it's so beautiful

    Induction noise sounds better than exhaust noise…..fight me. Thanks for the video Steph, I grew up in my parents 1976 Mazda 121 with a twin dcoe fed 2.1L striker MA motor and the sound in this video took me right back to it. I now own the car and it will be getting restored with my boys to continue the car nerd addiction. Thanks for the content mate and please keep it coming, we love it. 👍

    This is really all you need; a neat car with a bit of extra umph and well setup handling. We spend hours on youtube watching reviews and drag tests trying to figure out what the perfect car is for us, when we can make it so simple and not over think and over complicate things.

      Yes I agree, also one that will be reliable and easy to work on is also a plus imo.

    The sound of that motor reminds me of being 19. I had a 70 candy green Celica lowered with a 18RG. Use to smoke 5.0 Mustangs all the time. So much fun 😆 🤣 😊

    That intake sound takes me back to the days of my youth and chatting with the guys at TRD when they were in Gardena, CA.

    @oldschoolmotorsickle Před 5 měsíci +11

    Ah yes, in those days Toyota had yet to create their own brand-specific design language. That is, they got inspiration from other OEMs and put them through a shrinker. Like the Celica here; it’s like a 7/8th size 1969 Mustang, especially the fastback version!

    • @skaldlouiscyphre2453
      @skaldlouiscyphre2453 Před 5 měsíci +1

      The notchbacks have almost like a 1st gen Camaro roofline, but the LB version definitely looks like a '69 Mustang.

    That's a sweet car. When you first floored it, the sound it made reminded me of how my first Mk2 Escort sounded back in the day.. The twin carb setup i'm sure has something to do with that... Was twin Webers for the Escorts.. I miss those days.. Simple fun.. Great video..

    Nice ride, Steph, and a nice video. Thanks! My wife and I really loved a late '70s Corolla four door that we owned from about '79 to '87. I grew up on American iron, and envisioned the Corolla as a miniature Chevy Nova. It was a blast. Miss it a bunch!

    I drove a 1994 Celica GT for ten years. The Sixth Generation with the round headlights. I love that car. It's amazing how much fun you can have with a little 2.2 liter 5 speed. What it lacked in power it made up in the corners. It handled like it was on rails. It ran for 290K miles before it finally quit. I went out and bought another Toyota although it was never the same. I do have to admit that First Gen Celica is pretty bad assed.

  • @bigmurff6439
    @bigmurff6439 Před 5 měsíci

    I used to have a 1973 Celica that looked almost exactly like that. Black with molded fender flares instead of how his was bolted flares. Had the chin spoiler and trunk lid rear wing. Except my Celica had black 14x7 Enkei mesh rims. It had the 20R swap with dual 44 Mikunis, 11.0:1 pistons, a mild cam, and also had a 4.30 rear end. Tokicos all around on unknown springs. Was bouncy as heck on the freeway. Used to take it out through the Berkeley hills in Nor Cal back in the day after work and just drive it like it was a go kart. Only issue was trying to keep up with traffic on 4.30 gears. I remember clocking 4k rpm at 65mph and the 20R isn't a high revving motor. It's made for low to mid end torque, so redline was like 6.5k and at highway speeds I was pushing this motor close to it's redline.
    But the 18RG was the motor I always wanted and at the time, this was 15+ years ago, I remember seeing a rebuilt one for $1500 and I thought that was too pricey just for the block and head. No carbs, no intake or exhaust manifold. Now these days, if you're even lucky to find one, $1500 is a steal! I was too young, broke, and couldn't keep up with the car and ended up selling it for $3k back then. That I also regretted as the car is worth a lot today
