    Randomly saw this video in my feed, I hit the subscribe button as soon as I heard you advocate and support mental health, and in particular men's mental health. Great quality content as well, keep it up brother! And if you originally filmed the content in 4k it would be great if you uploaded in 4k too, the cinematography deserves it :)

    Finally found some time to sit down and watch this through.
    Great first ep, Dave!
    You can tell both you and Hugh really know your stuff and are super passionate. It's amazing what even a quick 5 minute spin behind the wheel can do for your head space!
    I've told my partner that my retirement gift to myself is a 911. God knows what they'll be worth when retirement comes knocking in 20 years or so!!
    Looking forward to the rest of the series mate. Brilliant job 💪

    • @DaveZalstein
      @DaveZalstein  Před měsícem +1

      Massive thanks @deganellis - very much appreciate the kind words and positive feedback.
      You might end up blowing your retirement on just getting a 911, but even then, it might still be worth it haha.
      As for more eps... that's definitley the plan, just gotta get this busted eye sorted out.
      Peace out legend👊

    So good!
    Hugh's passion for cars (and most things in his life, it seems) is great, and I could listen to you both talk for days.
    Josh posted in a skateboard forum we both used to frequent that his brother had bought a 911 and it wasn't until maybe 15 years later that all the dots were connected!
    I agree with the comment about the sale of the 996 GT3RS, that is THE DREAM car and it was great to see Hugh enjoy it as it should be.

      @DaveZalstein  Před 15 dny +1

      Hi @constantinrenoir8273 and thanks for the positive feedback - always appreciated.
      I think driving the car on the road rather than the track makes for possibly less exciting foot-cam shots, but it's definitely something I'll look into doing on other videos in future where possible.
      Thanks for the idea though and cheers for watching🙂

      @@DaveZalstein Great, thank you for your answer! :D Footcam is always interesting on the road or on track. Firstly, we see the driver's techniques, but also the characteristics of the car. So it will be still interesting, don't worry about this Dave. ;)

    It's so funny that the Ford Escort has such a different reputation in the rest of the world. In the United States, it is an underpowered, cheap, absolute trashcar. So unfortunate for us that we've largely missed out on the hot hatch eras of the 80's and 90's.

    • @DaveZalstein
      @DaveZalstein  Před měsícem

      Definitely a fun car @jeffshappard8227, but also fun because they're often (or used to be) underpowered, cheap, and an absolute trashcar haha.
