see you today at The Ridge!

Thank you for making this video very inspirational!

Saying how something makes you feel can be rare it seems, Passion for what you do or enjoy as well, thanks for sharing, much appreciated.
"achieving absolutely nothing is fun" -literally explains driving
It is so fun
and gaming, and a lot of things
@@archai2142 "achievement unlocked" ?
@@thlement7626 but what are those achievements actually worth if the game itself isn't enjoyable on it's own?
Having fun is the achievement in my opinion. Thats why we drive and have cars its to have fun.

Really? Lol. It's bee HD for years.

If a Prius can outrun his Corolla, a bicycle can outrun mine...
What kind of bike lol
No way, prius has 130hp
@@jza80_mkiv electric motors are giving a prius an instant start. AE86 has all the power in high rpm. And prius has a CVT gearbox so its more efficient (and boring) than the manual gearbox.
eightshvee I highly doubt a Prius which weighs at least 300kg more (400kg more and less hp than jdm ae86) is going to be faster. Actual ae86’s are pretty quick, 900kg and 128hp is a better power to weight ratio than almost all cars from the 80’s including 80’s corvettes, muscle cars, the celica supra, rx7 at the time etc, and even a better power to weight ratio than say, a E46 325i and other sporty cars that are 20 years newer. The problem is people that get ae88’s which weigh over 10% more and make 10% less power making it essentially over 20% like 20-25% slower than an actual JDM AE86 GT APEX, then say “this car is slow” like bruh you’re not driving an actual ae86, AND the engine is like 40 years old not making the same power it usually would. Like this might seem random but it’s like how in Call of Duty, lightweight makes you run 13% quicker. The ae86 is like the ae88 if you could equip lightweight..... twice....

You’re delusional. AE86 are fun drift cars but basically all of their Japanese contemporaries are faster. I run with a large all Toyota crew which includes examples of nearly all Toyota sports cars ever made (Including USDM and JDM GT-Apex). I can give you real world experience on these cars. It might surprise you to know that, stock vs stock, MKII MR2 Turbos are quicker than almost every other turbo Celica, SC MR2, IS300 and, yes, even a stock MKIV Supra TT. ST-205 is the next quickest. Then very closely followed by the MKIV TT.
AE86, in a straight line are much slower than all of these cars. Lots of fun for a slow car but still very slow, even with a blacktop upgrade. It’s also worth noting that all the turbo cars respond far better to mods than the N/A cars so the gap just gets bigger as the cars are modded.
"It's never gonna be fast'' "Only 150HP"
Meanwhile, I feel like a god when I drive my dads 120HP focus after driving my 65HP crappy Clio
Holy Diver the Focus is one of the best FWD chassis ever made. For the doubters, try one with thicker anti roll bars and coilovers, it's a revelation.
I get 80hp in my 86
@@JB-sv5pr pls be joking i wanna get one
@@harismalik4530 80hp is an exaggeration but it is slow as shit. but it handles like its on rails. you can beat your friends down a curvy hill but in a drag, a prius can probs beat you
It's all perspective. I used to be scared of my 50hp bike but now I want a bit more.
I really like the A90 Supra. It drives great and has huge potential for modification.. But the AE86 is just something else man.
That’s because it’s bmw product
Pee
The AE86 is not that good of a car, people just know it because initial D
Even at the time there where better cars in the same category by japan
(I know keiichi tsuchiya drift it but still)
And that’s a fact
Dudu y Chony 4age sounds awesome tho
@@duduychony9747 the 86 is an amasing car despite its low hp beacuse it can turn amasingly and its a jdm legend meaning its a very rare car
The A90 supra in the thumbnail just looks like something straight out of Gran Turismo.
Lol I thought it was forza at first
it’s such a great build
@@maybenikhil true
No this is better
I love the yellow headlights, it looks like a real IMSA or WEC car.
Theres a reason why we all love our cars. It's pretty evident in this video. The A90 is his workplace. It where he goes to focus and be the best version of himself. The AE86 is his version of home. A place where he can wind down and relax. That's why we love our cars. They are more than 4 wheels and an engine, it's home❤

I'm literally in tears rn, this video is a proper masterpiece.. kudos for this absolute magic of a video, Gears and Gasoline were always good with their stuff, be it the k20 swapping the ek9 or the road trip with the ek9 and the na miata, but.... this one is above and beyond
Video quality is amazing, but the storytelling and message delivery in this is another level
I like this episode the most, the story, the music , the cars, I feel so emotionally connected to the film while watching it, can’t really explain the feeling but this episode is calming, at the same time, exciting.
Came here for the car but also got a life lesson. That's dope
I’m glad that Toyota brought back the Supra as an amazing sports car that brought back the aftermarket scene but the AE86 is something special something that is analog in a computer world
A car that has no Toyota soul or barely and Toyota parts is a supra ? Sigh. The J29 is a good car, but it's not better than an m240i, which doesn't dress up as wannabe Toyota, I don't see the appeal in the mk5 other than being able to say "LOOK SUPRA GUYS I HAVE A SUPRA TOO, ITS A REAL SUPRA BECAUSE THATS WHAT THE BADGE SAYS"
@@noblestar7742 nobody claimed it's not a nice car, it's just completely useless as of right now
@@E9X330 it just needed manual transmission option. but toyota love playing stupid games. just like upcoming gr86 won't have turbo to make 2L supra stand above it, love their stupid games.
@@idokwatcher2062 nah it should've been a Toyota, that's the main issue
He has learned what it takes many of us to figure out well into our 40s and 50s. It does not have to be fast to be fun
another beautiful masterpiece. You guys should be proud of yourselves. Love the vids GandG
I've always admired the pieces from Jackie and his involvement in Grid Life, but seeing this whole other side of enthusiasm really sparks joy. Keep chasing that time Jackie, and I gotta say it's these wonderful pieces by Gears and Gasoline that just reminds me why I love cars so much. Can't wait to see more from you guys!
My eyes are definitely watery hearing Jackie just pour his heart out on how his grandfather bought him the 86.
His feeling of his Corolla, is what I feel for my 240sx. It maybe old, loud, 150 horse power, lightweight, but holy shit it's the greatest feeling simply driving around in it. Idk what it is that attracts me to the car, but it's just sensational.
when Jackie ding mention it drains you when a hobby becomes a profession is what I feel when I used to work in automotive industry. I drive a stock evo 9 and I know it is slow compare to new performance cars but enjoying driving it makes me smile.
What a wonderful video. This genuinely made me feel better today.
Gears and gasoline is the best car channel to actually help others understand why we love cars! Thank you for the amazing content boys hats off to you!
Just going for a drive can be one of the most relaxing things
It's really beautiful just watching someone talk about something they're really passionate about.
Jackie is such a talented driver. Can't wait to see how far he goes. Great cars, great driver, great philosophy.
When I walk out of my house and see my car, the car I bought, fixed, yelled at, laugh-in, cry-in, eat-in, it puts a smile on my face, and makes the ride even better.
THIS. This is the content we signed up for. Please keep following Jackie, I love his story and commitment. Thank you gears and gasoline for some truly stellar content.
I saw that supra at the circuit of America’s, I was on the other side of the course, and when they started it, it was so loud and so aggressive I could feel the vibrations from it, *On. The. Other. Side. Of. The. Track.*
Perfection is an understatement
This video really chokes me up. You said exactly what I feel, and what I love about driving and riding. It reminds me of looking up to my brother as a kid riding in his Sylvia thinking the world of him, reminds me of riding with my dad with him talking about his muscle cars he used to own. It reminds me of why I love cars and driving so much. Great video, one of your best thanks
Sometimes, speed doesn't bring you happiness. But the overall balance of the car when cornering :D Thumbs up!
the timeless stories you guys tell are always amazing
jackie ding is the person i looked up to when building my s2000 and practicing my driving
As an ae86 owner I cry every time somebody shows there’s passion for there 86 it’s such a feeling
It’s a nice car but if you want to go fast it’s a pain in the ass so many people will engine swap it.
@@tony_5156 i drive my 84 with 80 bhp with a smile
Brilliant. Videos such as this will go down as an inspiration for many in the years to come. Jackie Ding really knows how to touch the hearts of many enthusiasts around the world. And then you guys paint the picture, bringing the story to life. 10/10.
truely loved teh message from Jackie. We tend to forget why we start/get into things.....is that it makes you happy and what you love. when he said that, it made me appreciate my mazda323 so much more. I enjoy driving my 323, with all its issues.
*"Time attack vs tofu delivery"*
That's the best line I've heard in a decade
Finally... someone who gets it... this is my favorite video on youtube now, THANK YOU
This dude speaks with his mind and soul. This is really perfectly done, like a Motivation video. This man feels what he says and he's honest. It feels like he's talking to me, not the "screen". It's lovely.
I don't know why, but when watching youtube videos I don't really show a lot of emotions, and I had the biggest smile when the pop-ups went up on the 86. Thank you
Man that Corolla sounds beautiful!!!😍🏎☁️
I'm in love with that 86❤️
Knew there was a big reason i was following jackie.... he understands the love for motorsport as well as the next .. respect jackie, this video was awesome.
I really like this guy :) he has very important message. We often try to always chase the next big thing in life, always try to improve, but forget to appreciate what we have.
This honestly really inspired me to keep working for what I want, currently I have a 2017 Nissan Altima SV, not exactly a performance car I mean it’s quick from about 35-60 lol and good around corners, but man this inspired me to work harder for that 370z.😌
Did you manage to get that 370? Or are you gunning for the new one?
damn that is a pretty supra. so difficult to decide between a gt350 and supra for my hypothetical track car i’ll never be able to afford.
Honestly, i am biased towards the GT350R, that thing just screams, and it's basically one of a kind.
Zl1
Get something fun and affordable and start having fun on track now.
Brand new Supras 3.0 Premium are selling in Dallas dealerships for $48k with 0%APR right now.
that voodoo engine in the gt350 is sick but make sure u get the a newer one so urs dosent end up like adam lz
This video puts into words the differences between how I treat Dirt Rally 2 and Forza Horizon 4 in a way that I never could have. Your balance as a racer is astounding and deserves respect from everyone.
Jackie Ding makes Supra ownership much more special. I have followed him on the journey to tune and race his. I love his ethics and his person in short I am a fan...
There is a fascinating little detail about Chinese culture in this video and highlights China's generational differences. The interviewee is Chinese and had a passion for cars as a little kid. Once he was old enough to drive, he wanted a Toyota AE86. His parents thought it was a piece of shit and refused to buy it for him; thankfully, though, his grandfather supported him pursuing his passion and bought it him as a gift and supported him in restoring and modifying his AE86
Grandfather: genuine man carrying old Chinese culture of supporting passions, chasing dreams, and improving yourself
Father: unsupportive and blinded by China's culture of face. The CCP has drained all the passion from China....
Damn Millennials probably it’s because his grandfather once did the same thing to his son, but age brings him wisdom. Don’t link most of the bad things to CCP. If Chinese people are living a good life, then whoever governs them deserves a fair comment, and the only way to know that is to experience the life in China by yourself.
@@frank_5889 Living a good life does not mean it's actually a good life. Many are blinded by the walls the government put around them.
thebigeggman that’s why I made this comment, media exaggerated bad things about China and seldom mention China’s effort. Most of news regarding China are in the form of a story which are opinions generated by reporters that take a strong lead in forming public opinion. Go to the streets in China and see it yourself, otherwise you are using others opinions which might only be part of the truth.
@@frank_5889 What he says about passion and culture is true - look at the large cultural output to the world by the likes of Japan, SK, Taiwan, any relatively free country in comparison. When one cannot speak freely without government restriction and approval - whether a cartoon, a political statement or concerns about a virus to colleagues - culture and passions are stifled. "Self-improvement" requires self-criticism, something that the CCP will arrest its own people for.
Just beautiful... thank you guys, I really needed to hear this message.
It's not about the numbers, it's about what the car represents for the one who drives it. What a beautiful concept.
Can I just say you guys put the BEST content in your videos. It highlights what cars are about and the people who love them instead of the stigma that surrounds most of the scene.
What a great message you gave me, "don't lose the reason you started doing this"
Mashallah what an amazing video!! And finally someone said what the AE86 is truly about
Why don't you go to some BMW video?
I'm proud to be part of a culture that can sit back once in a while.
in the end, you make just about 2 people happy by chasing numbers all the time.
His comparison of Chinese to American culture and the act of slowing down while in the pursuit of perfection is so great. Spot on-loved this film
Jackie wants to be the very best, that no one ever was
Really learned a lot from this man, Jackie Ding
It’s all about following your passion and to keep growing🔥
I love when you bring this guys into the videos. Like every video you can get something new from him, he seems like a great guy. Mad respect ofc. But genuinely he seems pretty cool.
Jackie's story is awesome. He's literally just a kid who's grown up obsessed about cars and wants nothing else but to get out and go fast. He might not be the fastest racer, but he does not care at all. He's out to have fun and I respect his attitude so much.
I was really saddened to hear about the Supra's crash when it happened: He seemed like he was really doubting his future in motorsport when it occurred. I'm so happy to see him getting back out and ripping it up.
I wish Jackie all the best in his future endeavors.
what does he do for living?

AE86 enters: *eurobeat intensifies*
the philosophy of a driver is something else.. its how you give meaning to every moment of speed
With all that’s going on in both the US and across the world this was a tonic to hear somebody talk about how cultures can learn from each other.

Thank you guys for these heart warming videos about cars and the people that love em.
That Corolla is like my little 2000 Honda Civic EX that EVERYONE criticized me for. It's full stock, has some rust and an oil leak and slow af. But I worked really hard for it, and I love it to pieces. I've been improving on every single little tiny problem that it has, from a broken hood latch to broken AC. And whenever I see another 2000 Civic that's been moded with actual taste, I can't help but give them I big thumbs up and they smile and drive away. Coolest thing ever
*whistles* someone definitely put in the wrench 🔧 time 🔥💯
I kinda feel glad, this a90 started to gain respects this thing needed.
*J29, not A90
I noticed the PLUS ULTRA on the Supra wing. I do love this guy, he completely gets exactly why the AE86 is my raison d'être, and seems like a very nice dude.
Jackie Ding is such an underdog in the racing world. the fact that he works hard at it and documents his journey seeing all the bad and good makes him the best person to follow and watch in racing.

After years of having 1080p, being able to watch a Gears and Gasoline episode in 1440p+ is heaven.
sometimes in life you need rich parents
That's basically it.

Not everyone can win the parent lottery unfortunately 😂
This is effectively what he should have just said at the beginning, nothing he has done would not have been possible without shit tons of money that he didnt earn..
*Sigh* Just a bunch of kids playing with their parent's money...
I remember when he crashed his first A90 at M1 in Pontiac Michigan
I just left M1 an hour ago from cars and coffee
Me too
This is brilliant on all levels. Self awareness, intelligence, craftsmanship, camerawork, editing.

In my opinion, driving a slower car is more fun. It takes less money and you can drive to its limit anywhere.
watch the video.. that's the reason why he has a corolla
This channel is about quality over quantity👌
Agreed
When he was explaining bout the A90 Supra, he has this sense of pride and professionalism in his tone. But the moment it came to his AE86, you could tell that he went from a time attack racer to a loving grandson. The way he talks about it, it has a different air to it. It may not be the most powerful thing, but that's not important. It was the last thing that his late grandfather got him. That special value. Nothing can replicate that.
People are way too sensitive lmao, I've seen so much of these that it really doesn't touch me at all
Guess you have to be rich enough to get to understand the meaning of 精益求精
God I love you guys, every episode is pure gold. Keep up this quality, you guys will be on TV in no time
I have a gt86 and will be getting the Supra soon. I can already anticipate the outcome. The gt86 maybe slow but it always brings a smile.to my face and I am never late for work because I enjoyed driving .
