“you need a drift car to drift in right?”
This is undeniable logic we’re witnessing
I learned to drift in my gravel high school parking lot as I was leaving every day!! We didn't call it drifting back then.
I got a 84 fox body and its pretty easy to drift so anything is possible
For real!
My life is totally changed because I've been earning $15,250 returns from my $4,000 investment with Allison Parker
I heard a lot about investing with Mrs. Allison Parker and how good she is, please how safe are the profit?
Nothing makes me more excited than seeing Westin upload something
I second that 😊😊😊😊
I swear to god😂
I was gonna write that😂😂🎄🎅🎄
And then the smile or laugh of them when they do shit again. Always worth to watch to see how much fun they have.
Literally
Weston is a damned natural to the drifting scene
Nice

Westin looks so excited, and terrified at the same time! 😂😂
Love it 😂😂😂
ok
Love there terror in his eyes.
I'm honestly stoked to see what you do with this Fox. They have so much aftermarket support, and there were so many cars you can pull parts from to modify them, the possibilities are endless!
Looking forward to this one 🙌
I still think hatchback Foxbodies are the best looking Mustang by far.
Needs a coyote!!!!
@@mikewest5529 YES!!!
Time for a Godzilla swap

Not sure of the weight!
The 5.0 makes the power without the weight.
Only need 550whp to drift almost any comps!!
Weston being happy is very contagious. Extremely hard to not smile watching this.
Josh smiling every time Westen gets excited is dope af; shows the love he has for drifting
Yeah, I was thinking the same! This dude has done it for yeeeears and taught people for whatever amount of time too. Still, he clearly thinks it's awesome, and that's so cool to see!
The way he got excited when he finally hit that drift is the best part @12:26 love seeing his videos
The look of fear and joy when he was in the passenger set was priceless
Literally never seen a single video of yours before but you sold me in the first 30 seconds. You seem like a genuinely likeable, rad dude
BRING TATER BACK PLEASE 🙏
Drifting and Rally have been my
2 absolute favorites in my 30's now. I've always loved cars in general, but rally and drifting is crazy around corners. Drag racing is fun too, but ride in a 600hp+ drift car and you will easily get hooked for the passion of it!
Josh is like the main guy in a movie. Handsome, charismatic, nice voice and very talented.
Please be in my PR department 😂
You misspelt Westen
sounds like an aussie boy lol
I love how amazed Westin is and josh is just casually flying the wheel at 8:48
Western never fails to get a smile on my face, thank you western for making my days great love your content,it makes me happy when you upload something.
I been looking for one of those everywhere, I want to start my own foxbody build thanks to you.
Just sold my foxbody, great car, they’re so much fun to drive

I clicked on this video so exited because westen always takes so much time on his videos it’s always an amazing day
How do I get it?
What did I win?
@@TheMcmanman it was a scam bot don't worry about it.
Yeah I figured it out like 4 minutes after
Great Video! - I remember driving my first Mustang Fox Body. It had a broken fuel gauge, no functioning seat belt, and a door that would swing open randomly, but it still ran pretty well on the drag strip!
I absolutely LOVE how excited Western gets!!! You bring such good energy to your videos bro! Keep up good content
For foxbodies, the Wisefox Stage 3 kit is the best, with Feal Drift spec coilovers and Maximum motorsports camber caster plates. -5* camber 7* caster 1/8in toe out.
Bout time the man bought a fox body it's great to see you upload westen
4:54 oh my oh my that body roll is incredibly absurd
I bet Westin could hit 4M subs this year. The content is strong enough, the pacing, the humor, everything is there.
"You gotta send it so much harder than you do when its wet don't you?" Had me dying!!! 🤣
✍️✍️✍️
Westen is naturally funny asf 😂
Foxes are notorious for broken back rests and cracked floor pans under the seats. Get a good set of subframe connectors with the seat supports and weld them in. Then fix/replace the seats. They are great platforms, enjoy it. Looking forward to the rest of the content.
I haven’t smiled for a whole 15 minutes probably in 10 years. This whole video is so great. Didn’t skip a single second. Love it. Subscribed.
Westen getting into drifting is perfect. Now he can do burnouts the entire race!
Westen officially KILLED IT.
Seeing that hoonigan hat makes me miss Ken, RIP Ken you were and are always a legend.
On a positive note it’s so incredible watching you learn this sport!
Love how far your channel has come. Keep up the good work. And doing you.
Whenever Westen uploads something you know it's a damn good day
🔥🔥czcams.com/video/GJv4Z6b2oOU/video.html
Two cool dudes hanging out. Both hella humble 🐐🐐
I love it when Westen posts! Makes my day instantly better.
I now found this guy snd i already love the connect the jokes the personality i love him.
“ I drive a tractor, that’s basically the same thing right ?” Had me dying 🤣
His excitement is contagious! I can't wait for drift season to start up here in Indiana!
Gotta love this man’s positive energy and attitude! Keep up the awesome content!!!
And this is how this channel has become my favorite. The joy in his face just does it
Lol u can always count on western to make u laugh! 😂
love this video first time i’ve seen your channel very funny and not cringe great job! looking forward to future vids with such an awesome car
Ohhh yeahhh baby!!!! Can't wait to see the process of your skill leveling up!!!
Your videos truly make my day when I’m on break, being a car mechanic. I know I’m not the only one that has issues
This I didn't expect but loved. Can't wait to see where this goes from here. Keep being you 👏💪
This man made waves in the car community and is being talked about everywhere. I love how far he's come, and his content hasn't changed a bit. Westin is a national treasure.
Hasn't changed? It's the complete opposite of what it started out as.
First video I’ve seen of yours, great video format, really well put together, you’re hilarious also. Really entertaining video
its always a good day when westen posts

December 5, 2013 was a busy day for Ford Motor Company. The new Mustang's reveal was the result of a carefully coordinated media blitz. While most Ford higher-ups were holding down the fort at home in Michigan, others were making a bicoastal effort to release sought-after information about the new car. As the sun rose over New York City, Ford's CEO, Alan Mulally, was making the rounds on the morning news shows. In California, Ford showcased the Mustang's multi-generational appeal by unveiling the car at the TCL Chinese Theatre, where all those celebrities have their names in the pavement on the sidewalk out front. "Bullitt" star Steve McQueen's son Chad McQueen was there, too, giving the event some street cred. The Mustang even got to leave its prints (well, tire tread) in the sidewalk like a flesh-and-blood celebrity. And though the Ford Mustang might be considered one of the most all-American cars of all time, Ford is really hoping to win over some new international fans, too. So 2015 Ford Mustangs were also unveiled in Barcelona, Shanghai and Sydney, hinting not-so-subtly at the markets Ford wants to conquer.
The new Mustang will be the car's sixth generation. For 2015, the Mustang appears to warmly embrace a future direction for the model, as opposed to the fifth generation's polarizing retro styling. It's said to be the most comprehensive overhaul of the Mustang during the car's last 50 years [source: Turkus]. One of the challenges to designing such a high profile, long running car is to keep it in line with the rest of the vehicles in the brand's family, yet allowing it to retain the individuality that's helped propel and shape the brand through the decades. In other words, the new Mustang has to look unmistakably like a Ford, but it can't make people think of a Focus or a Taurus. Ford's designers told Autoblog.com that their most noteworthy inspiration was the first-generation Mustang.
The new car is shorter, wider and lower than the 2014 model, giving it a more aggressive stance and profile. The car rests on a totally new platform -- new dimensions, new floor pan and new suspension. The exterior was cleaned up to make the car's profile as smooth as possible -- no superfluous creasing allowed. The long, sculpted hood and the fastback-style rear pillars are classic Mustang elements, and the new diagonally striped headlights were designed to look menacing.
The interior was also overhauled, and the biggest difference is an upgrade in materials quality. Two interior themes were initially developed -- an aviation-inspired cockpit, and a cabin that could have been at home in a luxury sedan. Neither of those options won out. Instead, the best elements of both were chosen in a way that worked together. There are still some hard plastics to be found here and there, which were a sticking point with some fans of the car's previous generation, but overall, the cabin appears more generously appointed, yet tech-forward. It's also roomier than the outgoing car's cabin. The material quality, fit and finish are critical to successfully executing such an approach. And finally, the Mustang was engineered to be more fun to drive than ever before, with better handling than its predecessor as well as a lot more driver input.
As usual, the sixth-generation Mustang will also be available as a convertible, which will have an electrically operated fabric top, engineered to operate faster and quieter than in recent years. And when the convertible model of the new Mustang hits streets, it'll be the only drop-top car left in Ford's entire lineup, according to Mulally. The 2015 Mustang will be built domestically at Ford's Flat Rock Assembly Plant (in Flat Rock, Mich.), and will hit dealerships sometime in 2014.

Appeal for the Herd
There's an interesting lineup of powerplants for the 2015 Ford Mustang, featuring three totally diverse options: a V-6, a turbo four-cylinder, and a V-8, all of which we'll discuss in more detail. Power is, of course, the primary factor in a muscle car or pony car, but fuel economy has turned into a compelling side conversation. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) won't weigh in on the 2015 Ford Mustang's fuel economy until much closer to its release date, when the cars are ready to be put through their paces, which means we won't get the actual miles per gallon (kilometers per liter) numbers until sometime in 2014. This is no surprise, considering that Ford hasn't even finalized the engines that will be available at release (they're pretty sure, but that kind of thing has been known to change). However, that hasn't stopped people from talking about potential fuel efficiency. Yeah, it might seem a little goofy to get all hyped about a new pony car that promises lots of smoke and melted rubber, and then wonder if it'll be good on gas. But, at least for the Mustang, there's a precedent for such a conversation.
It was around 2009 that Ford announced a Mustang model to great fanfare: the 2011 Mustang was the first car that crossed the 300-horsepower threshold, yet was capable of achieving 30 miles per gallon (12.8 kilometers per liter) on the highway, and these ratings haven't changed [source: Voelcker]. People who like cars, but also care about the environment and the depletion of natural resources, wonder if Ford plans to top those figures this time around. Some industry experts think that the time is ripe for Ford to announce better fuel economy for the 2015 Mustang, and there are a few catalysts for this speculation. First, Ford announced that the 2015 Mustang will have an option of a four-cylinder engine. Ford hasn't done that in a Mustang since 1993. It'll be a new powerplant in Ford's EcoBoost lineup of turbocharged, fuel-efficient engines. And lately, Ford tends to market the EcoBoost as a performance variant that happens to be a fuel-sipper, rather than the other way around. That's an especially convenient argument for an all-new Mustang. Ford has said this new EcoBoost will be a 2.3-liter, which, with a twin-scroll turbocharger, should strike a good balance of fun and responsibility.
However, the base model won't be the EcoBoost four-banger; it'll be a 3.7-liter V-6 that's good for at least 300-horsepower, put down through either a six-speed manual or a six-speed paddle-shifted automatic. For comparison, the base 2014 Mustang, equipped with a similar powertrain, is rated for 19 miles per gallon (8.1 kilometers per liter) city and 29 miles per gallon (12.3 kilometers per liter) highway, but federal fuel efficiency regulations mean that Ford (along with other automakers) is under a lot of pressure to improve those numbers. Then there's the top-of-the-line 5-liter V-8, also similar to the current Mustang V-8, which is projected to achieve a yield of at least 420-horsepower. Prices for V-8 models of the 2015 Mustang might inch a little higher than they have in the past, but Ford has also noted that the V-6 base model was designed so the Mustang would still have an obtainable starting price [source: Voelcker]. Ford says the V-6 and V-8 engines in the 2015 Mustang will put down more power than those found in the current lineup, even though the company is under heavy pressure to improve efficiency. And, of course, all this is subject to change, which is fairly typical when a highly anticipated new model is announced more than a year in advance. Looking farther down the road, an alternative fuel version of the classic pony car is a possibility -- and according to some sources, it's even likely. Perhaps, when the time comes for the next major Mustang premiere, there will be alternative fuel drivetrains in the lineup. An electric Ford Mustang seems unlikely now, but Ford has hinted that it's possible.

(COURTESY OF FORD MOTOR COMPANY)
The Ford Mustang's engineers and designers are aware of the consequences of modernizing a classic car, yet they really have no choice. A redesigned car has to be more fuel efficient, thanks to government regulations and public pressure; it also has to meet the latest safety criteria, which often means incorporating new technology; and it has to keep an eye on the competition and be aware of the direction the market is going, which will help the car attract new buyers -- that's crucial for its survival.
But a new generation of a classic car can't offend the purists, even when those die-hard fans' expectations are totally unrealistic and maybe even a decade or two behind the times. A lifelong fan might be turned off by a feature like climate-controlled seats; however, a potential customer who's used to well-appointed import cars might not even consider buying a Mustang without them. Take the aforementioned drivetrain options as another example. While Ford's understandably proud of its EcoBoost powerplant, the engineers know it won't really appeal to people who have fond memories of the Mustangs of yore. So while the EcoBoost four-banger did get a mention (and it may actually work to attract a specific segment of new car buyers), when it came time to talk engines, Ford preferred to focus on the traditional V-6 and V-8. And they also mentioned how the car's new technology would enhance the driving experience, rather than distract from it.
I actually read all of that
@@leviduff2740 bro how
i didn''t even read it
All of the antics and personality are awesome, but your willingness to learn and take things seriously when you need to makes this channel worth watching
I never been more excited to see someone learn something 💪🏾
It is always a good day when he posts
Absolutely brilliant!! I was laughing out load most the way through!! 😅
this was my first of his videos. this guy is so freaking cool!!!!! love this energy
People: "I'd never seen a redneck drift in my life"
Westen: "I'd prove you wrong"
Um, people need to watch some old dukes of hazard episodes. They’ll see plenty of redneck drifting. Plus, daisy dukes.
I've seen Dukes of Hazards, loved the show, but I'm talking about new people that never seen a redneck drifting, excluding past videos of western trying to drift.
This instructor looked so calm and collected the entire time.... How did he stop from grinning the entire time? I think my face muscles would hurt after a few hours of drifting.
love that your uploading again man keep up the good work
this was in my recommended and im totally here for it this is litt great video overall !🔥
Dude I wished you posted more!! I know you're busy with other avenues but every few weeks just ain't cutting it. Its always awesome content. Give us more!

My favourite American scientist.
This was some dang awesome to see. Excited for a whole new chapter just open up for ya!
Westin is a natural behind the wheel!!!! Congrats brother!!!!! This video was awesome.
That’s why I love this guy keeps it 💯 with his fans others would learn behind cameras bc they don’t want to put it out there that they payed to learn
Love your videos Westen!!!🤘🏻💯
The screams of joy is everything! love it!
bro i love your vids pls never stop making them you are to much fun to watch
Living the dream, saving up for a beauty of a car like that. Always love your videos.
I've noticed that Weston has a love for Mustangs, I love it. I'm a Mustang guy. Looking forward to the drifting in the foxbody with the new parts. It's a clean foxbody also
“Could be brothers” needs mores love, I was dying at that.
I love for this content man , a goofy guy that love cars and doing crazy shii
This upload almost feels like a sort of tribute to Ken Block. Sick drifting Westen👌👌
This video made me think of Ken Block and his family the hole time. Maybe it was a tribute in a way but Westen did a darn good job for his first time drifting.
Man you gotta love this guy's energy and enthusiasm.
i just found this channel, watched about 5 videos in a row lmao. great guy
the cinematic bits are well-made. With the music and camerawork plus the editing. really cool. like at 4:17 and 11:50. Clean :)
I have literally waited for this day to happened since that moment at the car show. Bless your soul
✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️
I'm sick as all hell right now and gettin to sit lay in bed and watch Westen have fun is makin it alot easier to deal with. So glad I'm sick and don't have to wait for after work to watch this!
I'm also about to start drifting, I've had a year on my sim rig. I'm building a 01 new edge so love for the foxbody.
What an enjoyable video ! You both rock !
i'm excited to see you guys start the modding on the Foxbody to be a drift car. The suspension mods are really sweet
Yeah he definitely needs new suspension. That thing rolls like a swing. Also a limited-slip diff or a welded one.
this is the first ever video ive watch of this guy and i can’t get over it. he’s so damn funny 😂
Genuinely looks like a happy dude in there learning to drift.
✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️
Awesome video as always brother. Keep up the hard work 💪 👏
Another great video from Westen. Keep it going
Right on! My first car was a fox body. Was a fun car
In memory of Ken Block, Westen is taking up the mantle... TO KILL ALL TIRES!!!
i love westen's energy
TEAM WESTEN 🤘🚀🚀
I’m so glad I got an ad when the car starting rolling back I was dying lmaooo😂Keep up the good work Champlin
10:22 "Your right lets make it 80 just in case" 😂😂😂
When Westen first gets behind the wheel of a new car he just bought he always reminds me of some kind of Batman villain, high on adrenaline, being pursued by hundreds of cops. I dunno what it is.. just the way he takes off like a man possessed with the tyres smoking, grinding gears, two hands on the wheel, staring at the road ahead almost dementedly, occasionally glancing in the rear view mirror, all combined with the classic sound of villainous, maniacal laughter. Sort of like the Joker driving away in a yellow school bus full of money or some unhinged, cat stroking Bond villian's last escape attempt or something.
bruh 😂😂 czcams.com/video/vHd9_690JGg/video.html
How can you not love this guy, obviously a lot do to have almost 3 million subscribers in as little time as he's been on CZcams a lot of people love him
✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️
This makes me so happy seeing how much fun you had when you drove it for the first time
5:10 Fox is like, 'You gonna talk shit about me? I'm out. You can't stop me. I'm a drift machine. I am speed!'
Was hoping to see a link to Gentry and Son's GoFundme love the videos
Have you considered building a Racing Semi Truck or a Sled Pull Truck
You just know you’re in for a ride when Westen drops a video. Nothing but awesome and crazy content. Editing is immaculate, 10/10 will most definitely watch all over again!
Started watching Westen not long I’m loving the content
As a fellow big guy that started to learn drifting recently, I cannot stress enough how much of a difference a racing seat will make on your comfort and learning curve. Good luck and have fun!
any recomedations?
@@WestenChamplin A john deere tractor seat
@@angelrochlitz73 bruh no way😂
@@WestenChamplin Bride makes some real decent seats, they're just a bit tight. Sparcos arent as tight, dont hold you as firmly, but for a man of your stature, it'll be way more comfortable. They are pricey, but lets face it, you can just swap it into whatever you want it in, so no real issues there. Just make sure you get the proper adjustment bracket for it. Due to the shape of a bucket seat, it might chow your legs a bit, or you can slip out, so fine-tuning your height and angle is pretty important.
@Westen Champlin forgive my slow response. I used a Sparco Chrono Road in the largest they offer. It kept me feeling attached to the car
Just gotta Grind it till you Find it! Always a good day when Westin uploads
