- Dave Egan from over at @Drift Games and @Drift Masters European Championship is amazing to listen to! It is insane how much this guy accomplishes, and how much he lays on the line. I don't understand how much of an effect he has on drifting, and how far and fast he has pushed it in Europe! The fact he has a Reb Bull production in full effect pumping out the most insane level of content there blows my mind. The level of quality the whole Drift Masters production puts out is just crazy. The make all the drivers like James Dean in his world crushing S14 look that much more epic. They are creating legends out of their drivers and the cars. The tracks are mind blowing. The whole thing is just incredibly top notch, and it is super exciting to see drifting get taken to the next level with all this stuff.
It is really fun to see Dave do his Drift Games channel as well, and see someone take the journey of an event host to drifter to professional drifter, and share it all with the audience. The fact they took a Miata and Corvette, took out bank loans to finance the whole thing, and built them into professional level competition cars is simply mind blowing. I can't even understand the whole thing, it is hilarious.
Thank you very much to the Hoonigans for letting us borrow their facility for the day!
FD is getting stale while DMEC is out here pushing the sport forward. Love his announcing style and the excitement he brings to every event. Dave Egan is the man and he/DMEC are the future of the sport.
Getting? It's been last for the last 10 years. James and piotr brought the excitement back recently but now that they're gone it's back to boring.
Fd has really stupid rules about not leting you tie your roll cages into struts and subframe mounts, it stops Europeans taking ther fia legal cars to formula drift .
ofc FD is boring, most of the tracks are modified ovals…few exceptions being long beach, atlanta, etc….but most tracks are just ovals with similar layouts
best announcer HANDS DOWN. and i dont mind Jared like most. but dave egan is the final boss in drift announcing
Word
Jarod is the worst. I’d rather listen to nails on a chalkboard the whole livestream
Manabu Suzuki enters chat
@@theoriginalmuzzi manabu is the god man, the hype he bring is on another level
Dave put Irish drifting and European drifting on the map and is very good at what he does! Big respect for his professionalism in drifting
Dave Egan is EVERYTHING that is right with drifting........passionate, eloquent, driven and realistic........So fortunate to be able to support him and the Drift Games Team from here in Ireland....visit the site and get some merchandise !
Dave Egan is the leader that drifting needs. The way he has helped push BDC & DMEC to a wide audience without whitewashing it the way FD has is something that everyone else should aspire to achieve. You can hear his raw enthusiasm for the sport every time he gets behind the microphone. It's infectious.
Dave Egan and Ian Waddington best commentator duo, they work and flow so well together, they are the reason i started watching drifting.
Dave is by far the best announcer in drifting. he isn't just talking nonsense, he stays focused on exactly what is happening and breaks it down better that anyone.
Dave is such a good guy for the drift world & its an absolute honour to be involved with Driftmasters, roll on 2022!
Driftmasters is so good, i love the livestreaming and how much they make you feel like a part of the competition. Dave is the best and i wish driftmasters keeps going for years!
Dave is absolutely the best announcer in drifting, BECAUSE HE DRIFTS!!!! I want to see Sage and Lontange in their competition cars....
Thank you for pointing out Dave is just multi talented and that accent!
Dave is the real MVP. Would love to meet him one day and get him over here to NZ
Jesus I had no idea the level of sheer determination AND work Dave has to put in for drift masters. So many people here in the US take all of this for granted. One day it will all be gone if you guys don't start supporting our little slice of happiness. So stop fucking around and hit the like sub and Noti button and share its fucking free to do. But I
Know it's too much to ask from you guys.
Thank you Aaron love the content as always.
He is Thee voice of drifting, his energy and enthusiasm with the famous phrase "Door to Door, whheel to whheel". Irish and European drifting wouldn't be where it is today if it wasn't for Dave, the effort and sheer determination he has put into the sport is incredible
David is an absolute legend
I really hope to see Dave make it for a full drift week!
Great interview and fascinating to hear the details of drift masters and how it’s grown.
The guys slightly annoying the Jesus out of Aaron just jumping into the set was hilarious. Best interview yet, and Dave makes any event interesting as a commentator.
I love your interviews mr. aaron
I have been waiting for this interview for soooo long! Two of the most influential people in drifting!
Best interview ever, the drifting/burnouts really helped with ADHD
Best interview ever !! Love all the guest appearances
Without dave the UK drifting would have died,
He's worked so hard for everyone else 2 be able to enjoy doing it and watching it,
This was the interview I had been waiting for there whole trip
redbull as a sponsor is like cheat codes, the amount of money they bring is crazy
Was looking forward to this interview
Totally agree with building something new fueled by the passion of the specific niche. What the both of you did to push your creative ideas for events specific to your visions is super relatable because I did the same for Cars N' Anime. I hope FD can get some drift masters style media in the shows to really level up the entertainment!
Dave was a really sound investment for DMEC. Even though he can have some seemingly mental ideas, the guy lives and breathes drifting, and has a proven history of pulling off incredible things with a limited budget. Couple that with being a good commentator, media personality and overall just a lovely chap, it works.
Dave is definitely the GOAT and a humble nice guy at that.
Dave is so interesting to listen to and you can hear his passion
LOVE YOU DAVE!
Been looking forward to this interview more than another
Super interview 👍💪🏻
One of your best interviews👊🏼super interested in euro drifting on all levels
Best interview yet (not really objective from a french media). Love what Dave has done and do to european drifting, such an inspiration. Gives me hopes for the futur of europeen drift and car culture scene currently in a bad situation... Thank you Aaron for doing these amazing interviews !
I've literally gotten chills watching DMEC with the combination of skill level and Dave absolutely losing it he does such a good job
What a brilliant interview. Dave Egan is the man, pushing the sport to a new level. As much as I like watching FD in America it's a stale format, there's no real excitement in the sport. Honestly watching Chelsea dissecting each race after is more enjoyable. Or watching Adam LZ videos breaking down what's going on at the scene and getting an insider perspective makes the championship more interesting.
Drift Masters is edge of your seat, balls to the wall entertainment. Honestly next level production value and will push the sport further than any other series. Even watching back at old Irish championship video's with Luke Fink in the Irish Vs Australian battles. Honestly I've never wanted to have been lucky enough to witness something so much.
Aaron you and Dave should look at the viability of a European style Drift Week. Maybe do tracks in Poland then work your way to France then cross the Chanel to England before catching a ferry to Ireland and finishing up at Dave's home track. Publicise it a little more and have tracks open to spectators. You would all be able to make a healthy profit.
That was a good one
I love this interview style, do more like this. Brian is king of drift commentators.
Love these interview style videos !
Deffo get Dave on again, barely scratched the surface!
But Dave, drifting has existed in Europe more than 15 years!
No real championships before then
Hes talking about a Professional approach to drifting only really starting 15 years ago
Dave = legend
The dude stopping in to donuts were the best part
Aaron...I gotta hand it to you. You are on fire with this content. The production quality is awesome. The camera work and the vibe is so cool. This series you're doing with these drift insiders is so good. Love what you're doing and have really enjoyed seeing your brainchild blossom!
Great interview to bad they couldn't stay longer and go to more events at the Grassroots level and have them see the party after a No Coast event and Lonestar Drift event. Looking forward to the next Drift Week Movie
Dave is the man ✌️
Loving the content! Keep it going!👏🏼
Dave is the man, Sucks he had to be late for drift week
Good Man Dave 👌💯🤙💯☘
Best announcer ever
This is a great interveiw but could have been so amazing there so much info they could have asked about each other
What a life 😎
These interview keep getting better
8:36 Well, what if you throw a Drift week in eastern Europe? Poland and Russia have massive drift scenes, I would argue the biggest in Europe even. Choosing the correct tracks in the correct order that would not be too far from each other would be a challenge though.
have you seen how much they travel? i would see a problem with the police tho but i dont know how it is in usa
Be a logistical nightmare for organiser's with the amount of broader crossings anyone from outside of the eu would probably be a paperwork headache
i would love to see dave doing commentary in FD
RDS streams were pretty frigging epic this year as well. The driving is super high level and they're running on F1 style tracks with super high speeds. Totally different from FD.
Need these interviews on like DVD box set xD
ive always loved drifting and watched a lot of Adam LZ. moved to Ireland recently and found Drift games content and Dave. then from there stemed off into the Drift masters content i never new existed in my own region. Drifting needs to be able to grow but I feel the pressure from EU goverments on pushing eco cars is going to kill it over here. the "drift tax" is rising rapidly.
Yes, he is the best English speaking commentator in drifting. The FD guys are gagged by those stupid airforce ads and stuff.
I still wait for the day that the stats align and I can go to see DMEC for the first time, probably in Riga.
When's lonestar coming for a driftgames bash ?
Better love story than twilight
34:01 "They don't stop Mercedes putting 10x more money into Formula 1 than Haas".
Who's gonna tell him. Lol
yup i think everyone who loves drifting agrees... FD is stale ive been more interested in watching DMEC the past few years the way they capture and promote drifting is insane. thank you aaron for picking dave's brain i learned allot!
Drift Week needs a dedicated person to do a twitch stream for each track day. Would be hella amazing.
in norwey we have somthing that's called gattebil whice is a drift event
Dave can turn any championship into a good viewer experience. The IDC had a better viewing experience than FD despite the very little tracks here in Ireland and the limited audience. It's the one thing that bores me of tuning into FD. Commentary is stale and just sponsor names being thrown out by Jared and the livesteam smoothness is grim. The long waits staring at an empty track or the time between runs. The tracks in FD are also extremely boring, oval tracks are played out and there's no creativity in them. It's just huge banks and long sweepers for the most part. FD would benefit a lot from a tight and technical track here and there. Wouldn't need to run monster truck tyres then.
That's the thing that always gets me with FD. Everything takes 3x as long as it should do. They claim they couldn't run qualifying last year because they didn't have time, whereas IDC managed to qualify an 80 car grid and start battles at top 64 all in one day comfortably.
@@LordPodlington They can’t run as fast because they need 20 mins of “commercials “ every hour or nobody gets paid!
At the start of the video Daves foot was messing with my head,looks like it's on the tarmac and he's huge
Date and Aaron.. the most influential people in drifting 😃
It would be so cool to interview Ryan Sage
The commentary is the worst part of FD. Change my mind... (The live stream quality is a bit of a meme too.)
@@criticalevent I can watch drivers deal with a shit course but I cant listen to it.
You guys should start a drift week podcast on spotify where you can put up the interviews
I completely agree here!
You can tell Aarons like... ffs I'm doing a interview guys! Stop drifting!
Yep
Why is it that Monster, Rockstar, big sponsors, etc are all a part of FD but they can’t put together the same level/higher level production? Don’t get me wrong, FD is good, but should definitely be next level.
Because they're just sponsors. Red Bull came into DMEC and just said we want to run your production and broadcast, not just throw some cash in to have their name on it. The other companies don't have anywhere near the same platform as Red Bull do, and they don't seem to be interested in doing the same either.
Cause red bull media house isnt red bull the energy drink they are a full on tv production company!! As said red bull invested there own time and people into dmec rather then just throwing money at it to show there name for 30 seconds!!
Yeeeeep
10:38 not suprised it is in the burn yard
@LoneStartDrift not sure you're aware but Pawel from that chase run clip has just retired drifting ... :(
Would definitely rather see a driftmaster series then a formula d series I agree with it be stale here in the states no rules and less progression
the distractions are fucking hilarious
🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
17:42 is he talking about Buttsy Butler??? 😱😱😱
No, it was Graham McNamara, Darren McNamara's brother
Jarod Deanda is annoying as hell tbh, this dude is way better
DRIFT MASTERS SHITTING ON FD, RESPECTFULLY!!!!
Lmao at the dude in the 350z
DMEC>FDUSA
DAVE>JARED
meskers burnout was hilarious
More interviews need random donuts to spice things up.
Henry Ford was drifting when the Japanese were still riding horses. He Tandem battled Alexander Winton in 1901.
dmgp is way ahead of formulad. fornulad wont get new into the sport as it is soooo slow paced compared to dmgp
Dave and Jarod deanda would be a force commentating together
dude that guy wont turn off his car...
Great interview, well done to both of you 👍
Make sure you check out the Drift Games RUclips channel, lots of super good content 👌
What is yhe best drift series? RDS. The tracks, Daigo, James, Niknak, Shanagan, Gocha, production level and fan base. Sometimes You have to be honest
Rds is not the best judging is biased as hell and commentary is not good at all as of English speakers drifts masters is much better experience hands down
Here me out👀, drift masters is better than fd👀. Pretty sure if we bring boys like the shanahans and the rest, they will wipe fd just like James and Piotr did
With all respect and love to FD announcers. But they making it kinda boring to watch
Yeeeeep
