To be fair that layout was horrendous... That touch and go zone was ruining everyone's laps. They need to do something about it.
daigo did it fine lol

@@claire001savefile5Daigo done nothing lol Daigo been doing this for nearly 2 decades
Don't blame the track.. Blame the driver!
That layout is a easy TOP 5 worst drift track.
its up there with dmec crt

Hey Sam, I hope you see this. For the next Sugo event try leaving the third outer zone a little earlier and get closer to the inner corner before reaching the touch and go. I noticed when drivers stayed longer on the third outer zone it would then cause them to miss the touch and go do to already getting close to the edge of the track before the touch and go compared to drivers who left the third outer zone earlier and getting closer to the inner corner of the apex
Everyone looks like one big happy family. This would be the dream. Keep at it and enjoy every moment.
Why handbrake after EVERY transition only to dump the clutch right after due to no wheel speed?
With 800+ hp, doesn’t the car have enough power to upshift to 4th after the tight right hander to make the next outer zone, instead of dragging hand brake??
Robbie even read my comment about how the layout didn’t flow well.
Appreciate the honesty you are really the best out her at adapting and perseverance! Those thing will get you far brother! Hang in there!
Good on you Sam being humble and seeing the issue. Keep doing what you're doing and it will click.
I appreciate the realism of how u know ur driving isn't top tier enough and r looking at this for more learning and getting ur self out of terrible situations I'm not a drifter but love watching and I hate the negative people trying to shit on other if drifting was easy just like any sport everyone would do them so just keep pushing up self and getting better with learning to keep calm with a clear mind don't get caught up in emotions in ur own head!!
Awesome video as always Sammit. You are an awesome driver and you’re living the JDM dream. Always you forward to watching your races and all the rest of your content. You’ll get podium next time keep up the great work.
honestly, with all the problem that you got in this weekend, you did pretty well and you managed to stay calm. I think you are on the right track
watching the live stream it really showed how crap that layout is, so many people Zero'd their scores or got low scores because of that touch and go. How are you meant to keep a drift going in a literal straight line out of that 2nd Outerzone
Happens to the best of us, Sam. You got a lot of seat time and you'll be ready for the next round
Sam I noticed you go so hard during practice and you do so well, but during Competition you do ok Guess the pressure gets to your head. Just go out there like it’s practice and have fun Ganbatte
Keep it up Sam! Keep reminding yourself this is seat time and learning season.
tell Robbie i 'LOVE' his commentary on the FDJ stream
It looked like a tough day for a lot of drivers, really. (Also Echo seems like a great person. :) )
you and the car were looking so good even if the layout is trash, Progess is being made and it shows! 💪
Toyota surf had a dual battery setup maybe it’s a good idea to look into that cause it provides you that level of security especially as it’s only for a couple of laps in a comp I mean hell if you have 800 plus HP who cares about the weight.
3:20 i looked away from the screen, and that caught me off guard lol. i thought you had some American guy in the background.
I also said in the live stream that the layout was trash....The flow is just bad. Then add some rain (without fail, every year) and it's all over rover. I understand FD wanting to challenge the drivers, but they are here for the spectators. If nobody tunes in, what's the point? I'm sure the drivers want to enjoy themselves too.....
Haven't watched the vid yet, but will do at lunch! Interested to see what you have to say, Sam.
Sammit the OG S15 looks/sounds insane i think you did phenomenal for them choosing such a bad layout the only thing i would say is you gotta try and relax more i think your nerves are getting the best of you get that under control and youll smash it but keep up the great work 👍
Incredibly well shot & edited video! Almost don't even care how you do because the vid is so awesome lol. Granted you did very well facing the smoke head on in J1.
The only way to succeed is to try. the more you try, the more you will succeed. so just keep trying, sam. we believe in you 👍
12:06 that´s me, mom I´m famous. Was a pleasure to meet you Irl.
is it just me or does fdj have some of the worst flowing layouts ever :/
don't worry they do it in the states, too. i stopped watching years ago. i'm honestly not sure if the people who do the layouts have ever drifted.
@@itskOOpsthe states also have some very bad judging
I really love these fdj videos, especially the story telling and just the style of editing.
good day for you sam still learning. good to see you being more relaxed.i think your trying to drive the fd car like the chaser.
Go with a celica motor like the great top secret Supra
the top secret supra had a toyota century v12, the one with the "celica" 3sgte was the JTCC one
@@r.chaves_2848 top secret had a 3sgte Supra as well with 800 hp from Nagata beams the world
DAMMIT SAMMIT! YOU KNOW THAT YOU HAD NO CHOICE WHEN A BELT POPS!!!!! BUT YOU'RE GOOD AT WHAT YOU DO, MAKING PEOPLE SMILE WITH WHAT YOU DO!!!!! THIS ONE WAS A HUMILIATING KICK IN THE CROTCH........" STAY MEN AT WORK, DAMMIT SAMMIT!
Great job! Don’t give up mr! Don’t forget to have fun!
so many people drove the same! you did really well honestly
They need to do what they did in FD St Louis and add extra pavement to the outside of the track where the touch and go is, and then change it to an inner clip and that might make it flow a little better. Too many 0s due to that dumb zone..
Keep Grinding Sam...we are here!
I've bruised both of my heels in a similar fashion, each one about a year apart. The second one was about a year ago early next month, the day before my birthday, where I was supposed to attend Wicked Big Meet on my birthday. Yeah I couldn't even walk for about a week, I had to crawl and then able to hop around after several days. It took probably 5-6 weeks until I stopped limping and having pain. I was definitely still hobbling around after the 4th of July but by the tail end of July I could walk normally.
I love the in car footage, can u include a pedal cam too. Loving the content.
Guys the layout isn't supposed to be easy, this isn't youtubers doing backies and trains at Ebisu for style points. They design layouts to test different parts of the drivers' abilities and cars.
I have an FC Rx7. I love my EWP. I wired mine directly to my Fueltechs PWM output with a DC solid state relay. And it's dope no more thermostat because I tuned the water to flow like a thermostat and I can bleed the car without running it
No substitute for hard work Sam, you’ve got the right attitude mate 👍🏻
It's coming, one of these days you and Daiki are gonna put it all together and it's gonna be special.
You’ve improved compared to the last round. I takes time and love seeing that your doing well in fd.
i had to listen to "BELD THINGS" 3 times,
please make a sound out of that XD
First time in Japan. I’m in ebisu next week. Hope to meet you soon. I’m from Australia 🇦🇺. Cheers mate
Hi sammit I Love your drifting videos keep it up 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊😊
Long drift zones with re-initiation will happen again at Ebisu. I think you need to hold drift out of the corner, after leaving it sooner and turn again, maybe with e-brake to re-initiate in the zone. You need to fix the bind problem and use an electrical water pump to assist the mechanical one in the car. The belt may just keep popping and you need to figure out a fix.
8:10...... Nice sammit... You drive really good... Slip and slide Sammut.....
I remember Adam L.Z had a similar issue with binding. Might wanna hit him up about it.
That video openning with your voice in off... God I love that voice 😆
nvm sam, next round, i feel u at this stage where u can drift but not competative enough in comp, once u pass this stage u will shine. Keep up, i'm watching always lol
you need a car with a similar built spec to your fd car to use as a practice car
wonder if there's enough space for them to shorten the first touch and go and then add a 2nd one on the opposite side, adding a manji section...doubt they will change the layout tho
stay up - one day the drift gods will reward u
It all about good friends and having fun
You need to talk with james and mike dean they are they gods of jz s chassie . I mean james rarely has any issues with alternators belts sterring etc maybe they would share some knowledge
add 10-20mm spacer in the front, it will give you more stability and mainly it will stop the rubbing on suspension and on back of the body, little change solves everything in 1 shot, plus it is a very easy solution xD
plus to break losse the nuts with your wheight either do it with your palm open so in case it slips or the nut comes losse suddently your hand doesnt get squished between the floor and the tool, or just get a very long extension/tube to have a lot of torque and do it going up... pretty sure you already know that but sometimes its easy to forget... except when we hurt ourselves, then we remember very well 😂
Tension... and then hit with a hammer to shock.
I would love see an anime on sammits drifting and car and mechanic life it would be like a play on initial D
Keep your head up brother it will come in due time
That touch and go and outer zone before seemed so awkward imo when I was watching the live
Team Sammit....Great breakdown. More training and research 🙏✌️🤘🇦🇺🇯🇵😢
Living the dream, props from 🌏
"How does it feel to be driving Kanta's old car" With an Aussie Accent lol
nitrous and a new tune with boost coming in sooner, plus new belt would have made the huge difference? would probably be able to run a longer gear ratio with the new low end boost? you're definitely a good driver and getting way better every time you go out!
It is amazing to think that FDJ is pretty much the birthright of all that is drifting but they seem to be over complicating a track layout. Listening to Robbie during the live stream he mentioned that he recognised a problem and even gave the organisers a layout solution that wasn't considered. The touch and go on the outside of the straight section locked to be stretch everyone.
It's only the second event of the season Sammy. Take the good days and the bad, we live and we learn. I do have a question for you though that you don't really show much in the form of context during your testing sessions. Do you actually take the time to try dialling in on suspension settings? From our side looking through the looking glass we can't see any of the fine tuning and tweaking.
Hi Sam we love your vids!!!!!!!!!!!!
Needed NoS especially for the touch n go point. Keep working Sam you'll get there. Use NoS on those layouts. At least they could fix the track, that touch n go had a chunk missing on the sweet spot just filled with sand. Get it right FDJ it's 2024
HI Sam just remember never give up you can do it❤
ur real comp car is chaser sam
Analgesic cream for your hand, works wonders ✌🏻
Love you guys!!!
R.i.p. my resurrecting the dead hoodie. Damn dog.
😂😂😂😂 the packaging foam though
Let's go Mr... Sammit..... damnit 😅
the touch n go was at a terribel spot
Davies Craig in australia has great electric water punës. For trucks at least.
GO SAM GO!!!
Touch and go in the wrong spot absolute silly from the judges to put it there
It seems to me that you feel more comfortable in a chaser platform than a s15
I say, get a competition chaser with 2jz setup
Your Pitt area is sooooo pink bro. So bright. Looks crazy
The clipping points after zone one are aBsolute dogshit. It's strange how they placed them.
The layout with that touch and go was so nonsense. Ruined the whole event. Made all the battles terrible to watch also.
Love how all these people have the answers to properly drift the crappy layout yet they aremt even there or even drift themselves 😂😂😂
Keep your focus, it's right around the "corner"!
hey sam, a while back you were interested in manual au utes. I have a fresh sprayed, really clean, manual t5 sohc 4l au ute for sale. Its mint and has had a shit load of time & $ spent! Ground up build.
Why does the S15 still have huge understeer issue????? On the entry, Flick it in and all that understeer after that
learn the hard way to perfect your work, i think that where you start and where you are new is day and night differents, so i am maybe wrong but i hope you reach a new highs
I like the awkward interview 😆
tss tss tss such a rookie mistake ;D
i can relate to the hand injury lol
10:00 I still think you got robbed so many other drivers made more error's that were far more considerable but hey judges were so tough. I still think you got a mid 50's that first run compared to what some of the second round drivers did on the same day. Overall stopped watching fdj after qualifiers, the judges upset me with the calls they made.
Was thinking about sanmit😂
Not gonna lie so many people were straightening... yet only a few were being called out as incomplete... daigo saito did straight on his qualify and got a score, you did the same and got a 0... either way from what i see is, you have too much grip on the car and you cant reach the zones well... you need to losse some grip, specially sideways or you need to be even more agressive sending the car sideways (not angle i meant into the curve), plus you need to hit the trottle sooner... you need to actually MELT the tires on that car and that setup... obviously easier said than done but you hit the throttle too late on iniciation making you hit the dirt and also exiting the outside zone making it super hard to reach the touch'n'go... either way it wasnt great but it could have been so much worse too.. you could have crashed, car caught on fire... the results will come with time... just keep going at it and actually trying to improve and you will get there...
isnt this the second time that a alternator pulley bolt has come loose on sam? First time was on the chaser this time on the s15... just jz things??
You should definitely take pain medicine for your hand and put ice on it too
Take caare and speedy recovery for your hand
Raise your castor remove front roll bar
I'm glad to see I am not the only one who feels like eating the white cheeto looking packing
Wtf was that touch and go, did anyone nail it?
That looked Iike a hard zone to fill. Would you need to up shift to be able to hit it?
U got this
you get to much in your head just gotta have the send it attitude during compp
Just get familiar with the power Sammy boy remember it’s a 1000 hp car you got now lot of reflexes and muscle memory will be different man lol watch this soon we’re gonah see some epic drifting
