Zack has thousands of hours the sim, but little to no real-life on-track experience.

So grateful for this opportunity! Thank you so much Ryan! ❤
You killed it my dude!
You killed it man. I tell everyone their first drift car should be a assetto sim rig.
@@feelgoodhorizon4084 Yeah man Assetto is the way!
Congrats Zack, a dream of every sim drifter! Looked natural!
@@rushandy_andrea ❤
From a sim drifter, this is the best present you could’ve done to him
This also shows how well built sim games are. To be able to translate a game to real life so easily is so crazy! Zack killed it!
Congratulations on providing this opportunity! It's every sim driver's dream.
It was my pleasure to make it happen!
ó o brabo aí
Omgosh! Zack seemed almost overwhelmed with emotion when Ryan did the “you get to drive” the S15 reveal!!! SO AWESOME!!!
He was so excited and did an awesome job! Very proud of his effort!
LOL to me he seemed pretty chill about the reveal, supercalm
Lmao he was deadpan the whole Vid 😂
Get this man a sponsor
💪🏻
I guarantee he spent all night doom scrolling FB, CL, OfferUp, all of it looking at cars with Drift HQ in the other window looking at parts for every option lol
Like Piotr's Wiecek video with Rhys driving :) Hope it will have such views, cause this is worth it. I've learned 4th person already to drift on SIM and still convincing them, that sim is not a 'playing' - is really a 'driving'! And they were shocked, that I have right. Keep your setup reliable and wish you a podium!
Rhys is a really good friend of mine and I'm glad we could both share a experience like this with the world. Much love!
As a newer sim drifter, this gives me hope and im SOOOOO stoked to see this. Heck yeah.
Dude it felt so close to the sim its kinda crazy haha 🤙🏻
@@zackosullivan7325 have you gone back to the current sim drifting car pack offering & tried to find the car that feels closest to the dynamics of Ryan's pro car? bc if so, or if not, you totally should & let us know bc it'd be sick to know.
This idea was done ages ago as well by candymachine Piotr but I’m glad to see sim racers having more of an opportunity.
@@chris_nfernal637 I don't like to think of it as a "idea" more than a opportunity to do some good for Sim drivings reputation and prove that it is a helpful tool.
Another step toward merging the sim and real world drivers! This so so dope to watch!
Totally agree! More sim drivers need to get out there have opportunities like this!
I have been a fan of Zack's in Sim for a years. Glad you gave him this opportunity!! Awesome driving Zack!
Thank you buddy! ❤
This is the most genuine internet content I've seen in a long time. Zack was humble, yet very certain and confident, Ryan - very generous of you to pay it forward in the most honourable way. The majority of motor sports videos are usually this over the top "whee" kinda thing - this video is different, it's like a psychological study the moment someone goes deep into the 4th dimension. You and your team captured a very very special unique slice of time!
Hell yeah!! So stoked for my boy! Thank you for allowing my friend to achieve a dream Ryan!
❤❤
It was my pleasure!
Next step pro 2 🧐 good job bro
Dude this was epic!! We need more sim videos but from pros! it kinda sucks how sim racing drivers can get millions of subs but actual pros have a hard time gaining subs. Ill never understand that, but you could bridge that gap by combining both worlds!
At the end of the day man I’m just glad that Zack got an opportunity to fulfill one of his life’s dreams!
You are the absolute man bro you ACTUAL made that man's day, week, year whole life and that strut he had when he jumped out the like he had been doing it for years was absolute gold 🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
@@zackosullivan7325 you definitely drove that beast like you had been doing it for years though man was very cool to see and made Ryan's day aswell. Guess you'll be building a car now 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It was a proud dad moment 😂🙏🏻
@@RyanLitteral there was a wee tear under them shades wasn't there 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I noticed the same when i got my first real life drift test drive. It just feels like you have extra inputs which help you to navigate the car. After a few runs to get used to the car you can just pick up your muscle memories and go for the curbs etc. Its crazy how good sims got.
Honestly, we've known the answer to this question for over a decade now, iRacing sponsored the event, and put Gregor Huttu into a real skip barber car at Road Atlanta and got within 3 seconds of the fastest lap time of the day. And he had never driven a car before.
The circle of emotions at 0:30.. 🥲 thats my homie
❤️❤️
Andy! ❤
Known the kid for years! Never seen him drive a car ever! Now i see him here drifting a pro car like a champ! Zack my dude you came along way in life and its awesome to see you succeed in life!
Thank you for the kind words brotha! Much love! ❤
Super awesome, as one of the creators of the Tando Buddies cars in Assetto this was always goals. Riding along with friends is a rad experience, would love to be able to create something of my own as rad...
Thank you for your contribution to the sim community! Your cars helped me get comfortable behind the sim initially. This is a small thank you to not only Zack and VDC but to the entire community for giving me what I’ve always needed to scratch the itch of driving.
So nice of you to do this for him !
Right he said he's been sim driving for years and he could have been out there driving a real fuckin car once he got it down. sell the rig and buy a shitbox go out there and do the shit for real support local events and all the companies that support drifting but no.
@@Vgk36 tires, fuel and entry fees + tech and other associated costs don't exist in sim racing. It's all free and infinite. But you're right, he should have just spent 10's of thousands in real life practicing instead of $3k on his sim rig and gotten less experience in the same time. 🤡
So awesome of you to facilitate that man. What an honor that must have been to him.
It truly was!
It was truly a great honor! Dude killed it and puts in a ton of work on this team! Well deserved
What's even scarier is:
House sim racing drivers with no track experience are already up par with the veteran drivers and it shows.
The downsides though being a gamer myself, fitness and neck problems due to g forces hahaha.
CHEERS for letting him drive bro!! he definitely deserves that :D
You’re a real one for this, it’s all family in the Litteral corner
the ol’ BLKJ forza times. Such fun 🔥🔥
Best of times man
I know nothing about drifting, don't watch sim or real life stuff, idk how this got recommended to me, but the story being told here is amazing. Awesome content and the vibe check passed all the way. I felt nothing but love from everyone involved. You can appreciate this without having any idea what's going on and that's a huge compliment. Congrats.
this is nuts! i used to play forza with Mistified back when he was on SO- so so sick to see old heads getting a go at the real thing
The good ol' days! 🤙🏻
MrFerrarri007 tipping the hat to you bud. 3rd gear rip! %$#@'n
sick. @@zackosullivan7325
So proud of him. All those hours of Sim time are paying off. I have watched Zack grow up to the person he is today. It's amazing what he is accomplishing.
Much love man! ❤
Very proud of my boy as well!
This is HUGE, man killed it too with even with the RB boost, what a 🔥 day
100% its good to see you posting brother!
I appreciate that man and more to come!
Man, this is such a great thing to see. As someone that grew up playing Forza with you, I remember many online lobbies running into you like damn, here we go. Also a fan of watching Zack run on videos with him being my inspiration to dive into sim drifting. I currently suck but still. This is just a feel good video. I need to make it out to a track day sometime since I live close. Keep it going, my brothers.
Absolutely man! Come out and see us at the next FD round local to you and say what’s up! Thank you for the praise man, I’m glad that the sim community has done so much for me in my life and this was awesome to pay it forward. I’m stoked on Zack for killing it! Thanks for watching!
@@RyanLitteral That will be the next FDLB. Funny enough, I am from and still living in Riverside as well. Looking forward to making the trip out. Thank you for being such a damn cool guy.
Thank you for the support man! 🤙🏻
Dude, that was an awesome thing to do for a friend. The trust it takes to put anyone behind the wheel of a vehicle that has that much hp, time, and money put into it and tell them to go rip it and just let him go and burn several sets of Sean (Lucas Black) is saying to Twink (Bow Wow) that he's gonna grab another set. Then Twink jumps up, saying, No. Look, that was your third set today. I mean, them tires ain't cheap. Lol
It's nice to have friends who have that much trust in one another
zack deserves this so much. he has always been a very humble dude. I am so happy for you dude and so grateful that ryan let you have this life experience. All the hard work has paid off dude 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Shifts to 3rd gear connects it too the first turn.... "that's my son" hahaha i felt that.
LOL
Goes to also show how easy your car and setup is. Excellent on everyone 🔥
We have one amazing team now!
This is some wild shit. So how long before SimMagic sponsors bro to build a car and do pro am? It's already happened for these sim companies for grip racing..only a matter of time.
My bucket list.....
My upcoming birthday is going on rally track and gonna have fun! Can't wait to try real stuff!
idk any of you guys. First time watching a vid. This is awesome, happy you got to try that out man, you seem deserving. and big ups to the team for making it happen.
Much love dude! Thank you!
this is awesome dawg
so rad dude killed it right off the bat
So jelly! If you already know the basics from simulation I would argue that driving real one is almost easier :D when in sim you don't feel the g's and you just have to go with what you know what should happen with what input
That’s pretty dope of you to give him that opportunity.
I genuinely smiled the whole way through this video dope feeling can’t even imagine
It was an awesome day for everyone 🙏🏻
A feeling I will never forget!
I am a pilot that also does sims for training. The sim is WAY harder than a real airplane. I am curious if this is a similar thing.
What a beautiful car! Love how Zack analyzes everything!
Zach is born to race! took to it like he was just a little rusty on the edges and then rapidly switched it up once he got a feel for the car and track. Good job on all the guys that made this dudes dream a real life experience!
Having played forza 3-4 with you this was amazing to watch. Awesome to see you give some back
This is such a great opportunity and i didn't expect anything less from Zack, drove few times with you guys on vdc servers and Zack is nuts 🤟
This is so mach fun to see, you giving him the chance to drift that car. It gave mw both goosbumps and even tears 👏
❤️❤️❤️
Wow, this was just amazing! Its so amazing that he could use what he learned in the sim to then add the feedback from the body to advance to a real drifter in a day. If he had a drift missile car to practice on, he could become GREAT.
That's my boy I'm so proud of him all grown up "I'm done" tears of happiness 😭
🤣 It's been a long time coming Eric! Thank you man!
Those clutch kick tho 👏
Makes me a proud owner of simagic equipment lol. Good shit bro. Hopefully one day I'll be at your level on AC
imagine how things would be if we had sim stuff like we do now, back in the FM2/FM3 days
literally
Totally agree! Sim raining back the was unobtainable to 90% of us back in the day. Wish I would’ve had these tools available back then.
We had Live for Speed back then, tbh FFB in it actually feels more natural then AC though it's lacking in other parts.
@DriftNick we did, but the wheel market was super limited. Now there's so many good wheel options out there, plus so many AC mods that feel super good and responsive
He is living my dream....next we need to see him gettin' some doors
i love how much confidence he had after the first run hell yea dude
Zack is a virtual drift master and a gentelman. Big guy 🤩
Much love! ❤
Great dude and totally deserving on the opportunity!
Nice , that really enjoyable vid guys!
Awesome drive by Zack
"paying it forward" is a powerful action!! SUBBED UP!!
❤️🙏🏻❤️
he finally did the thing!
He did the damn thing
Mannnn... so dope! I can't wait until my first track day. Salute to you guys and the entire team 👌🏿
The Sim will prepare you for that day! Trust it! 🤙🏻
@@zackosullivan7325 Will do my man!!
Thank you!
So happy for you Ryan
Thank you bro! All good things take time!
To me it seems like he's still using too much ebrake but nobody was in the car to see and tell him in the moment. Aside from that little critique. Dude knows what he's doin, it's a very wholesome video❤
Sim drifting is amazing fun. But nothing beats the smell of tire, geese and petrol in the morning. Not to mention the G's. So sick
So sick!! Dude was ripping it!!!
Me next me next! That looks like an absolute blast to do that in person for the first time. Props to you Ryan for allowing someone to feel sitting in that seat and ripping a monster
Very cool. I'm so curious about how much easier it must be on the pure technical side of things to control a real drift car than a sim car. I know that I do so much left foot braking when I drift in sims, not just for controlling angle but just as a practical tool to slow transitions(or 360s) down if they're too fast and unpredictable, and I feel like if I was in a real car I wouldn't need to use brake to slow transitions at all because the g-forces would be there guiding me.
awesome seeing this at my home track, i’ve learned everything i know there.
You already know, but it's cool as hell that you could do that for him!!
Haha good stuff Zack! Did SD9K tell you about the old days before the sim rigs? He use to go hard 🤙🤙🤙
I actually met Ryan briefly if I remember correctly back in the day on Forza when he was on BLKJ, I was buddies with BLKJ Kami and BLKJ Swirly.
@zackosullivan7325 those were some good old days, its awesome seeing the boys progress in real life, it looks like you had an absolute awesome time out there!
Good Job Man! knew you could take all those skills to irl, and do amazing things!
I want to see what more he can do behind the wheel
Got a new subscriber from me💯 i jus watched exactly what ive been wanting to do my entire life. Bro killed it on the track bro
Thank you man 🤙🏻
That thumbnail had me thinkin of s13 days. “You rockin Dio?” Right on. Go’head
My dude definitely rocks out to Dio- it was a mandatory requirement
not the first sim drifter to do this but everyones dream
Awesome video!!!!! Zack killed it for his first time!!
This is just so dope, i trained myself in a Sim-Rig and then i used a shitty car in Real Life... it works, believe it or not !!!
the dream of every boy who has been behind the screen for years, yes I am
💯 I'm thankful I was able to live it out!
Too sick. I am jealous, after building a sim rig and racing and learning to drift on it, I want to shred in real life so bad!
I love how he feather the throtl to kept the car in boast when he's handbraking
Great technique!
It's funny cause that's a instinctual thing I developed from Sim driving haha
Good evening, sir! Been a while!
#CommentForTheAlgorithm
Thank you!!
Bro,between the emotion of driving youre car,the sound of that RB🫠🤌🫡💪
It was a glorious day!
Great content, and looking forward to seeing more content. RBarmy for Life!!
Thank you soldier!
Seeing Zack in sim drifting for a while and knowing what to expect from this video still didnt prepare me cus I didnt expect the guy to rip it that aggressively irl right away. 😂
Sick. And here's me can't even get a normal car due to poor vision. Thank god for sims 😅😁
This sim driver.....Drove the absolute boll*x off that!! 😂 He needs to get into Drifting asap at a high level. Imagine him 3 months from now after training 😮😂
Such a dope opportunity!
bro... someone cuttin' onions in here? super cool.
This was awesome to watch! Man you did a great job Zack.
Finally Put Misti In the fucking car.... He just said he was ready about to shuttup & watch.
He's damn good! Much better than some of these RUclipsr drifters. He just needs seat time in a real car! I'm very impressed!
I bet, he’s at home right now looking for a car to build, and searching up car parts
Wowwww, I used to run with JSI Nando and Mistified back in the FM6 days. What was Zack’s gamer tag?
JSI MiSTiFiED!
Damn 10k+ hours in Assetto this is the dream.
you can clearly see that with 5 hours of seat time in a specific car this boy be ripping like its attached to himself. sick bud
Hell yeah! Zack killed it! 🤘
Yayyyy Mistified...This is hype
You already know! 🤙🏻🤙🏻❤️❤️
I was literally saying the same thing as Ryan at the same time as him that this dude's been trained in his whole life for this. I haven't watched the video yet. I'm probably like 10:15 seconds in. I already know this dude's gonna kill it.
-P.S. If some of this doesn't make sense, ask us some high as F*** right now I'll recheck this in the morning. Then update it, edit whatever.
P.P.S I just realized that the time stamp is in the bottom right? Hand corner of the screen on mobile. So I guess I'm 12 seconds in.
Crazy being a kid playing Forza with Zack to see what he’s doing now.
This is amazing 9k 🎉
I’d prolly cry 😂🤣🤙🤙 from the sim world to a fd car and bro killed it , really shows how far sim has came , making dreams come true rad shit bro !🤙
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
