It’s been a rough week for Irish drifters. But can’t keep good people down @driftgames and @JamesDeane will overcome this without a doubt. James needs to get out there Saturday and win longbeach, would set the tone for the season and be a pretty big comeback story to beat for the season even tho it’s just round one!
As someone who just spent 16 days in the utah burn icu i can tell you james and that passenger were very lucky! Burns are no joke! Props to both them for acting so quickly!
@@ChuckThree and last weekend my e46 caught on fire cause my wiper motor relay shorted while I was inside and the wipers just kept going for what must've been hours so the motor had got so hot that the pollen filter started smoldering but luckily my neighbour noticed and let me know it was smoking before the whole thing went up
This is a good reminder for everyone who drives racecars to make sure passengers are very comfortable with getting the belts off and bailing out before taking them on the track. Love the positive attitude from James and the team.
James, you’re really living up to the ford mustang getting in wrecks while drifting stereotype. First you went flying and now you’re on fire. We’re going to have to start calling you the Phoenix
No one got hurt, so that's a win. You have an amazing team behind you, if anyone can get you ready, they can. On the bright side, it didn't happen during competition.
Another fire. Fire has been causing havoc in the Irish driftscene. Danielle Murphy got her car burned down years ago, just the other day DriftGames HQ went up in flames and now James Deans RTR Mustang. When it comes to fires, even the luck of the Irish is not strong enough😢.
James calm as always. The right mood when things don't go according to plan. Good luck to fix everything and show us the prettiest drift we've ever seen this season. Fingers crossed.
Damn. All the Irish boys cars are on fire these days. Glad everyone safely made it out. I hope both Dean and Driftgames have better luck this year. Definitely rooting for them both
I'm truly thankful you and the passenger got out and the only thing lose was a car because that can always be replaced. Everyone was cool after, but damn that was a life or death situation if any steps were skipped to react in time and it didn't just explode. Blessing to you and your family, we can't lose you this early, you have plenty of life left as the legend you are.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Fires being real mean to the Irish at the minute, I hope to see the rig looking like a war horse on Saturday. Props to you and the passenger for keeping your cool and getting out safely.
James, we’re just glad you and your passenger are alright! Also props to you for getting your hands dirty and helping where you can instead of being “just a driver” mad respect to you bro!
Nitrous is not flammable. it will only make existing fires hotter. it is an oxidizer. So there wouldnt have been an explosion or anything, but wouldnt have been great lol
Well you had to wait until the end of the year last season for your drama. You’ve got it out of the way early now so onwards and upwards from here! Best team in FD behind you! Go get it Dean!!
Metals are coming and going, fame is fading, but your health and wellbeing is priceless. So good that you were not harmed, also the Canadian passenger too, and nobody else. We wish you a nice race, fingers crossed to finish the car in time. But, again, the best thing is that you are fine.
The RTR team how they handle adversity will be the reason they're on the top step. No other team in FD would even contemplate fixing that in time for the comp. Props to the whole team getting after it, look forward to seeing you on the top step this weekend!
I think war machine is a great name for that car moving into the future lol. That car's been through hell and back and is still a unit! Glad your alright James and cant wait to watch you and this car tear it up this season!!
Ive always said to myself that im glad that you were not in any fire incidents before because you guys built cars yourself but time comes and it happens. Whats even crazier is that it happen in a BIG team- RTR but good thing is you are well and the passnger that all it matters.
So sorry to hear and see this. I hope ya'll can get it all back into form by Qualy! It would be a travesty to not have an Ace like yourself miss the first event.
Chelsea announces his retirement. Then James decides he gets more budget since Chelsea isn't going to use his bumper budget. 2 events, 2 cars. Hope it gets fixed and you do well this weekend!
Just watched this after seeing Hobson hit the wall in practice. it's going to be a tough weekend for RTR. Excited to see you and Hobson dominate in FD.
I'm so glad you and the fan are OK that's a scary fire. I've always thought that fans should also have a fire suit on during these ride alongs. Even if the suit is lose, it will still help. It could have been so much worse if the fan didn't know how to get the belts off quickly
Glad you're alright James. I had never seen you have a serious smash or fire but the last two events in the RTR have been rough!! Hopefully you guys manage to get the car back together and feeling good. You were driving amazing before the fire! 1st lap out kissing the walls!
Glad to see you’re OK very scary. This week has been bad for you, Irish guys and fire. Good to see no one at drift. Games was hurt either in their fire.
Good job to you and queen B for getting out quickly and safely… Glad everyone is okay. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Sad day for the Irish for fires. Praying for DG and RTR
Holy shit it got hot enough under there to just melt the carburetor 😳 that’s insane. Don’t think I’ve seen a fire get that hot like that. And it did it in seconds which is even more crazy to me. Glad you and your guy riding with you got out safe and sound from that. But just head down and grind it out and you’ll make it back. RTR crew has their work cut out but they got this 👊🏻👊🏻
Glad you and the passenger are safe hopefully Vaughn and the team can get you into another mustang for comp. Man the Irish have been fighting fires this week
Wow Mr deane how do u do it that's incredible how u won the championship last year in the last round with a broken collarbone fast forward to this year first round and have the fire in the car and then the amazing team around u put it back together then u go out and win the event that is awesome mate unbelievable driving👍
props to the passenger for not panicking and having the belts coming off before the car even hit the wall.
hes a canadian "pro" drifter!
he actualy waited for the impact and than released the belt, and jumped of before the car had stoped!!!!
He’s a drifter as well. Canadian. You can see the fire from his point of view on his channel
WHY ARE YOU LIEING? At the time of impact he had belts on.
He said it was the first time he has been in a drift car without a race suit too! Wild
First I saw that @driftgames had a fire then right after @JamesDeane had one and I can only say I am glad nobody was hurt crazy day for the Irish Fam
Fuck fires, all my homies hate fires that destroy nice stuff
It’s been a rough week for Irish drifters. But can’t keep good people down @driftgames and @JamesDeane will overcome this without a doubt. James needs to get out there Saturday and win longbeach, would set the tone for the season and be a pretty big comeback story to beat for the season even tho it’s just round one!

not a good weekend for us irish at all lad but glad you and your passenger are alright
Fire is being a real asshole to Irish drifters lately
@@ChuckThree and last weekend my e46 caught on fire cause my wiper motor relay shorted while I was inside and the wipers just kept going for what must've been hours so the motor had got so hot that the pollen filter started smoldering but luckily my neighbour noticed and let me know it was smoking before the whole thing went up
Praise good neighbors. I had a scare a couple years ago, and now anything that isn’t my daily driver gets the battery pulled.
5:53 Becky: _visibly traumatized_
Deanne: “Yeah it’s my favorite track” _ear to ear grin_
Lol funniest part about the entire video
This is a good reminder for everyone who drives racecars to make sure passengers are very comfortable with getting the belts off and bailing out before taking them on the track. Love the positive attitude from James and the team.
that and the importance of fire suppression systems
😂 Passenger was not in fireproox wear and you say that... 👍👎
James, you’re really living up to the ford mustang getting in wrecks while drifting stereotype. First you went flying and now you’re on fire. We’re going to have to start calling you the Phoenix
Well the crash with matt wasn't his fault at all. The mustang ain't even the most crashed car.
Phoenix livery with autozone colors would be sick.
Warmachine phoenix
@@hugo-pg5tv lol I know it wasn’t his fault but mustangs have such a stereotype of crashing while drifting out of car meets
@@Redraynos honestly though, that would be insanely cool. I would buy shirts that had that on them
good thing there's walls blocking off the crowds aye 😂
No one got hurt, so that's a win. You have an amazing team behind you, if anyone can get you ready, they can. On the bright side, it didn't happen during competition.
Irish drift family not having a good run of luck with all theses fires goddam glad that everyone is safe tho. Keep up the great work james
That fire was nuts! Glad you and your passenger got out fast with no issues! Glad your safe and hope to see you drive this weekend!
That shit is scary. Love the hand brake pull while your literally climbing out the car
Appreciate you sharing an keeping us updated. Drifting needs more of this!
Another fire. Fire has been causing havoc in the Irish driftscene. Danielle Murphy got her car burned down years ago, just the other day DriftGames HQ went up in flames and now James Deans RTR Mustang. When it comes to fires, even the luck of the Irish is not strong enough😢.
I can smell one of the greatest come back stories of this season! 😍
If anyone can do it, it’s certainly you and RTR
I would just like to point out that I called it. Yes, I am the hero here 😂
James calm as always. The right mood when things don't go according to plan. Good luck to fix everything and show us the prettiest drift we've ever seen this season. Fingers crossed.
Damn. All the Irish boys cars are on fire these days. Glad everyone safely made it out. I hope both Dean and Driftgames have better luck this year. Definitely rooting for them both

Geeesz, that escalated quickly.😢 Glad you're ok, best of luck getting the car rebuilt.🛠
Fires being real mean to the Irish at the minute, I hope to see the rig looking like a war horse on Saturday. Props to you and the passenger for keeping your cool and getting out safely.
James, we’re just glad you and your passenger are alright! Also props to you for getting your hands dirty and helping where you can instead of being “just a driver” mad respect to you bro!
It's a start, bro. This year, you're sure to be on fire, Dean. 130🔥🔥
Holy Shit, Glad yall got out safely.
Thankfully the nitrous bottle in the cabin didn’t catch fire!!!!! And yooooooo look at this quick thinking on James and the passenger!
Nitrous is not flammable. it will only make existing fires hotter. it is an oxidizer. So there wouldnt have been an explosion or anything, but wouldnt have been great lol
Keep your head up Deane, You have a solid team backing you up!! Best of luck to you and your team
Things worked right in an emergency in your brains & your equipment - glad to see it. The flames were in the cockpit so fast. Good job, good luck!
You are the best in the world brotherr You going to Win 💯 Coming back stronger 💪🏻
Well you had to wait until the end of the year last season for your drama. You’ve got it out of the way early now so onwards and upwards from here! Best team in FD behind you! Go get it Dean!!

Congratulations on the win @JamesDeane130! That's how you do it!
Always stoked to see Becky celebrating with you! She's a keeper brother!
Glad yall both made it out safe and that you won James!!! Congrats to you and the RTR Team!!!!
Glad everyone’s safe. Small setback, big comeback. Good luck James
Such a slow response from the fire team was crazy!
Man can drive gawd damn...congrats on the win! Especially after this...legendary
Scary as hell! Glad you OK man! If any team can, it's rtr, you got this, your first lap was a perfect lead.
You got this 👌
Look a lot more comfortable and at home in the car this year for sure, really great to see. Sure the rtr boys will have it fighting fit by Saturday
Two types of fire ,car and James were 😂 .What an event 🏆. Luv to ya JD/QB
Good luck dude!! Really hope to see you sending on Saturday! Big ups to Deane for being a cosy host! Good luck to the team!
Well done to both of you that was rapid reaction time so glad you got out in time professionally handled 👌🏻
Glad nobody was hurt. Fingers crossed get to see you on track Saturday.
The RTR team how they handle adversity will be the reason they're on the top step. No other team in FD would even contemplate fixing that in time for the comp. Props to the whole team getting after it, look forward to seeing you on the top step this weekend!
God damn, glad you are okay! The fire gods really has it in for the irish this week!
Our hearts go out to you it sucks but you are safe! That's the main thing. Chin up team!
glad you’re OK bro 🙏🏼now to come back even stronger let’s go James im routing for you this year 😤💪
It's bonkers to have passengers with no fire safety gear in these cars
I think that will be the main topic of discussion after this. Things have to change
It’s crazy they don’t have to wear full protection, that guy was very lucky
yep, guy is a driver himself and said its first time in racecar with no racesuit and never again. safety for co-drives shoud be looked in
@@asdfdsa16 it’s easy in hindsight, but a full on motorsport there should be rules for this kind of thing
@@s3quattro10 saw a pic on is facebook, the hair on is arms are burn off
I think war machine is a great name for that car moving into the future lol. That car's been through hell and back and is still a unit! Glad your alright James and cant wait to watch you and this car tear it up this season!!
glad you guys came out of it, when i saw the NOS bottle it could have been worse.
CONGRATULATIONS JAMES DEAN!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
One thing I have to say is the exhaust note sounds on point👌
Best of luck with repairing your car 👍
:ETS GO JAMES!! Stay motivated! Your gonna nail it dude!
Glad you’re ok. Hopefully all will be ready for Saturday.
Ive always said to myself that im glad that you were not in any fire incidents before because you guys built cars yourself but time comes and it happens. Whats even crazier is that it happen in a BIG team- RTR but good thing is you are well and the passnger that all it matters.

Glad your whole guys , burns are no joke.
Best of luck with the progress!
The worst situation teaches us the best lesson to be better.. We will be Ready To Rock !!!
Rough day. Glad y’all got her back together. Side note. Becky’s freeze while she was trying to get her bag cracked me up
Chelsea announces his retirement. Then James decides he gets more budget since Chelsea isn't going to use his bumper budget. 2 events, 2 cars. Hope it gets fixed and you do well this weekend!

Damn, that fire took car to the crisp so fast 😮
The hat was a hot fire to melt the throttle body
No better man or team to turn this around 👌🏻🙌🏼🙌🏼
Glad to see you’re OK very scary. This week has been bad for you, Irish guys and fire. Good to see no one at drift. Games was hurt either in their fire.
Hope it all comes together for you lad ,The man above is just making ye work for it abit more💪☘️😎

Praying for DG and RTR
Wasn’t her. Was another passenger
Good luck to you and all your team 🤛🙌
1ST fire 🔥 Damn those Fords, found on road....

I know it was media day but, lucky the passenger didn't get burned with no fire protection suit.
Damn that sucks mate. Good luck!
i knew you would come back and win it. congrats
Glad you are all safe what a scary moment
Professional exit from the car from both of you. I've noticed that when your cars are built by Michaels they don't seem to set on fire randomly
Wow glad you’re ok , you and the drift games team have had a bad week with 🔥
hell of a way to break in a new chassis!
Crazy. Absolutely crazy
Gratz on LB win!
Luckily you and your passenger got out ok. The RTR team are the best in the business so no doubt Deane's car will be right to go come Saturday 💯👍
Glad you and the passenger are okay man! 🫡 Shes been tough on ya. Hopefully you rebuild and shred hard this weekend 😤💯
all the best james and team 👍
Vaughn posted it in IG, he said you were putting 100 point run after 100 point run, oh boi he was not kidding
