Disagree ! They are both very poor. The judges clearly stated at this round that wall contact was going to be marked down but then they give the highest qualifying points to a driver that smushed the wall a lot ?
@@WhiskeyGulf71 exactly they are no better or worse than each other. i think ppl just have to have some sort of comparison to be happy. i'm just happy both exist so we get more drifting as a whole.
@@qmarqHe left like 3-4 years ago due to work/life balance and personal compatibility issues with Adam's operation. Came back like a year ago and they seem to have worked out a compromise where everyone is happy. Nice to see him back, I like his vibe and he seems really skilled.
Drove 1500km just to see Adam, did that, but also saw you on podium!!! Big congratz, it was unbelievable and i hope it was the first but the last time to see you.
Massive congratz on the podium!! Also Heinonen’s engine just completely giving out the second he crossed the line to secure the championship was almost biblical.
Was super stoked to see u make podium and put ur name in a record book! First USA driver to podium in drift masters! Keep killing the game lzmfg and drift HQ crews!
Becky is such a homie, fire energy, seems down to earth, stoked for Adam and his accomplishment and she's gorgeous. Big gratz Adam, that looked insane, I'm sweating after watching that, well fricking done mate!!
remember when you first got into drifting. Watchin how fast you have growing is insane man see you winning a championship in DriftMasters/FormulaDrift in the near future. Drove the shit out of the e36🔥One of the top drivers to date out there. Congrats on the Podium brotha. Pumped to see what the futures got for ya💯🔥
Wiecek had the best chase I have ever seen! After watching the lead from in-car, I had no idea he was literally touching the door the whole time lol! Congrats on the podium! I can't wait to see you go back and do it again!
Deanes was pretty wobbly but he did have a better chase. The wobbles definitely screwed with the chase or Adam would be slapping the car through the whole lap. I think they gave it to Deane on politics.
Can yall just accept the fact that he got gifted a top 16 and top 8 and piotr made a huge mistake. Geeze a 3rd place is a damn good and as good as it could get for the way he got to top 4
Such a cool way to end the season after hard competitions! So clad that I got to see you drive in Finland this year, was always rooting for you, hope to see you next year also!
I have never been more excited and in perpetual anticipation while watching this! What a crazy amount of twists and turns in the events leading up to your podium!! Massive congratulations for winning podium and representing the USA in the best ways possible. You're an absolute star, Adam
adammm, can you possibly record the team radio and put it in the vid? I feel like most of us including me are very interested to know what goes on between the teams and drivers. You can cut out declassified parts, of course.
What an amazing event and seeing you go at it this hard live in the stadium was awesome. Knowing where you come from with the cream S13 and now being the first US podium in driftmasters is insane! Congrats and keep it going 🔥
Awesome to see a happy ending to the season after everything you all have been thru. You should never feel bad about advancing because of other people’s mechanical issues, you’ve been on the other end, it sucks but the event can’t wait for every broken car it is what it is
It feels weird being there seeing all of that in person and then watching it all over again back in the States at home lol. Good thing you didn't like the walls as much as you did before hahah 🤣 Although I wore "I love walls now" t-shirt and hoodie on Drift Masters, just as a tribute to that moment 🤣
Congratulations to you and your entire Team! Amazing job Adam! You represent the United States as we all want them to see us! My father always told me to " be the man you want to be known as" a good enough man to be accepted in any Universe! You too seem to be living that way! Safe travels back home.
Great job Adam and team! There's no doubt you are there competing on merit and deserve your moment in the spot light. Enjoy it. Now let's go for another podium at the final round of FD!
Congrats on the podium man, long time follower and super impressive to be the first American to podium! Your driving this year with FD and driftmasters has greatly grown and am excited to see whats next
Well done, boys. Well done. Way to end the season on an incredible high!! Full circle from last year. Can't speak highly enough about your driving, and the teams absolution. See you in Irwindale!!!!
I haven't been watching your channel long. I found it when did the compound video. I started watching because of the bulids everything i thought i knew about drifting was basically wrong. That being said from what ive seen over the past few years you have grown so much as a driver. Congrats on the 3rd. Maybe next year you can win both the fd and drift masters championship. Congratulations to the crew as well. The guys that keep putting that thing back together after every run.
What a nice end to your first drift Masters season. I always looked forward to your videos about your drift competition and hope it wasn't the last one from Europe with the Europa E36!❤️
Enhorabuena Adam y a todo el equipo! 🤟 La competición en el estadio brutal, conversar contigo y Johan cuando nos encontramos al lado del río con los scooters fue genial 😉
Congrats to the podium finnish. Hope you get back next year and make the judges work as hard as they did this events. Then they get to work hard its a sign of good drifting !
Hey, I see it as a great note to end the Drift Masters schedule with. After all the issues faced in DM and FD, it was bound for luck to bounce back in your favor! Congrats to you and the LZMFG team!
64 minute video uploaded 42 minutes ago so I haven’t seen it all yet. But, I still want to say congrats bro!! You are living a lot of our dream lives. Nothing but the best for your future! Edit: just finished the video and that final battle was intense! Congrats again on the podium finish and being the first American to do so at such an event. Come drift in NZ next time you’re down Australia ways. Congrats.
I am always waiting for the next drift competition video and this ones one of my favorites the whole hour I was entertained congrats on the podium U.S.A Proud!
Adam you are not the only one who thought you beat Dean. I dont know how you do it? You are a far better man than me. You always seem to get robbed and end up OK with it. Im not just saying this because im a fan but you sould have been fighting for second or third. You didnt just get third from Petre's mistake it was because you were robbed the round prior. Way to go champ. You have come so far so fast.
Anderson was not happy at all, hahaha when you both hugged. His face mad af. Great job, LZ all the rain drifting you do truly helps. Looked smooth this round. And you weren't destroying your beautiful cars rear-end smashing walls. Can't wait to see where you end in FD🎉
been trying to learn how to drift on assetto with my wheel setup, I know it isn't exactly a representation of real-life drifting, but it's really put into perspective on how hard it is to do. Grats on your podium man, been watching a long time now, super proud of you and the team and how far you've all come!
Assetto feels pretty damn good given that it's almost impossible to represent the actual g-forces an actual car will feel, have fun learning drifting (and remember, don't learn to control a car via clutch kicks, learn throttle control instead as that's actually applicable to real driving)
@can_with_beans that's what I'm currently doing, learning throttle control within Figure 8s, moving onto a track I like, and trying to link everything together. The issue is I don't have a handbrake, but I've kinda gotten used to not having one, but it's definitely my next upgrade for sure
@vein444 Having a handbrake is definitely helpful, it can help you reach the outside of a corner or just stagnate the radius of your drift, but if you can do the same thing without a handbrake you'll get 2 things: 1: Achieve Takumi Fujiwara status 2: Once you get a handbrake, your drifts will be infinitely more skillful than someone who learned by relying on a handbrake At the end of the day, most tracks can be fully linked without the need for a handbrake, but getting deep into outer zones is made harder is what I've found in my own assetto experience. Anyways thanks for this convo, inspired my to set up my sim and play some assetto tonight lolz
The most amazing drift event I've ever been too and probably will ever go too. To be there in person was absolutely amazing and to see Adam driving great against the best driver in Poland and the best in the world was crazy. Top it all off we run into you and the crew at the Airport... me and the wife yelling to Adam "Congratulations" across the Warsaw airport and everyone looking at us crazy Americans praising the LZ team was funny.
I have seen so many people hating all over social media, saying that Adam got podiun because others cars failed, but didnt mention the battles he did were all top notch. Even the DM judges said Adams lose to the pound for pound best in the business, James Deane, was a close one and followed it up with a close one with Piotr, keeping his cool throughtout it all. He earned that podium and I truly believe hes gonna follow it up with a podium in irwindale.
It was good to see you drive the car you brought instead of making a ton of changes. Just the couple adjustments and then driving the hell out of that car. Congrats you deserve it. Not many people work as hard as you.
Im so happy for you Adam. Last year in Warsaw i was asking you if you gonna do full DM season, you wasnt sure but i was. Look at you now. I am Polish and i want to Piotrek win all the time but im just happy for you, been there live, didnt see you in pit tho. Watching channel for years, every single video. Happy that the biggest drift event in the world is actually in Poland. Cant wait for next year. Pierogi są zajebiste "tępy **uju"✌💜
When I watched it Live I didn’t think anything of it but watching it back, the battle with James should’ve gone your way or at least OMT. Regardless, excellent showing no doubt
Nice job Adam! Even with the good luck and the bye runs, there is no doubt you are one of the best in the world right now. Next step, get the blue car to win an FD round!
The Adam sticker on James car is for a young fella who died in a freak accident, his father is in the car scene in Ireland and well known. RIP Adam
There was other drivers with the same sticker
RIP Adam
@@snickers882duane mckeever 👍🏼
@@snickers882 Conor Falvey if im not mistaken as well, probably Riusei too
The Polish were mad? I thought they were the nicest country. But Piotr did mess up, he didn't look to thrilled
Driftmasters judging is far superior to FD. Congratulations
FD judges as bad as UFC judges. It's unbelievable
FD become to joke
Disagree ! They are both very poor.
The judges clearly stated at this round that wall contact was going to be marked down but then they give the highest qualifying points to a driver that smushed the wall a lot ?
@@WhiskeyGulf71 exactly they are no better or worse than each other. i think ppl just have to have some sort of comparison to be happy. i'm just happy both exist so we get more drifting as a whole.
@@iiGraphix and ofc NBA
the way piotr chases never fails to amaze me. does it like no other
So glad Freddie's back, I know he has been for a while but it really just hit me how valuable and awesome it is to have him back
when was he away ?
@@qmarq He left I think during the FD season Adam did before he went to RTR. The breakup was what I have read a bit weird but now he is back.
@@qmarqHe left like 3-4 years ago due to work/life balance and personal compatibility issues with Adam's operation. Came back like a year ago and they seem to have worked out a compromise where everyone is happy. Nice to see him back, I like his vibe and he seems really skilled.

why you dont wana see him anymore?
@@iljasauter pretty sure it's an unchecked typo but yeh that's funny.
The day adam became a legend, *The. first american to podium in driftmasters*. well done my friend its been a long journey
Massive congratz on the podium!!
Also Heinonen’s engine just completely giving out the second he crossed the line to secure the championship was almost biblical.
Was super stoked to see u make podium and put ur name in a record book! First USA driver to podium in drift masters! Keep killing the game lzmfg and drift HQ crews!
Can’t wait to see you at Irwindale for that W
Me too. I will be there. And I will drive the GR Corolla when I win it.
Yes! Gotta get the blue E36 to the top of the podium!
@@86-Trueno best of luck
@86-Trueno if you win it let me be your co driver for a beginner rally (i can talk rather loud so we can have the free bird turned all the way up)
@gwc_garage I got you bro
Adam has the exhaust customized to help prevent tire fire. Flies johan out to do it.. they end up drifting in wet conditions…. lol
Becky is such a homie, fire energy, seems down to earth, stoked for Adam and his accomplishment and she's gorgeous. Big gratz Adam, that looked insane, I'm sweating after watching that, well fricking done mate!!
I have to say one thing. The broadcast on Redbull TV is so much better than the FD one. Like how are these two leagues even comparable
You need a life
Comparable? Not even man. Love fd! But they have so much to improve on. Completely agree
That burnout glove move was awesome!
becky’s excitement for the sport is Unmatched
Giving James a damn good run for his money and beating Piotr at Drift Masters. Dude. You're fuggin living the dream right now.
Adam will always be the first American to podium at drift Masters. 👏🏻
What are accomplishment
One word to describe this round : Pierogi
remember when you first got into drifting. Watchin how fast you have growing is insane man see you winning a championship in DriftMasters/FormulaDrift in the near future. Drove the shit out of the e36🔥One of the top drivers to date out there. Congrats on the Podium brotha. Pumped to see what the futures got for ya💯🔥
So proud of you Adam!! Congratulations to you. Your Battles against James and Piotr showed why you belong to the podium!
Wiecek had the best chase I have ever seen! After watching the lead from in-car, I had no idea he was literally touching the door the whole time lol! Congrats on the podium! I can't wait to see you go back and do it again!
“Both leads were the same” they shut their eyes in James’s one or what? I’m a big fan of both guys but I’ll always say it how I see it
Love James Deane but I thought the same thing lol. Right after they said “oh look he tapped the wall twice there”
Deanes was pretty wobbly but he did have a better chase. The wobbles definitely screwed with the chase or Adam would be slapping the car through the whole lap. I think they gave it to Deane on politics.
Def a OMT if I would say..
@@Kirtvall agreed, Adams lead vs deanes chase is how it should have been judged
Can yall just accept the fact that he got gifted a top 16 and top 8 and piotr made a huge mistake. Geeze a 3rd place is a damn good and as good as it could get for the way he got to top 4
I'm from Poland. Congratulations on 3rd place 👋👋. I hope you liked it in my country and Drift Masters at PGE Narodowy. 😀
❤
He was there last year as a wild card too!
Na pewno mu smakowały pierogi, tyle razy wspomniał o tym w filmie xD

You did a spectacular job , staying consistent , and calm nerves. We all knew you had it in you! Congratulations on 3rd at Drift Masters!!!!!!!

So sick, great driving and team. Pierogi podiums for life
Congrats Adam. It is amazing how your consistency on driving has gone super high level. Thumbs up
The Stadium and the wet track makes the cars looks like RC cars on slick floors, it so cool! ❤❤❤ congratssss!

adam you bring a wholesome smile to my face. never change adam you're doing AWESOME!
Podium at the largest drift event in the world is a HUGE W! Amazing team, car, and of course driver! good stuff all around!
