he will talk to anyone as if hes been your friend for years when i did track staff for FD in 2010 i was walking back to the track from pits and he offered to give me a ride out to the infield and told me about the car and how he got into drifting really nice guy 10/10
Mike is one of the most chill humble dudes on any grid. I went to ATL for the second time in 2016. And it was a former friends first time going to a FD event. We went in like 8 A.M in the morning before all the people really started rolling in. We walked over and asked a question and chatted for like a solid 45 minutes straight. Just causal conversation and questions here and there like we'd known him forever. My former friend was super tense and nervous to talk at first but once Mike told em to just relax and we started coversating it was much more chill. The thing is most of these guys are chill as hell. They love the sport, and love the fans and most are willing to just chill and vibe like anyone else. Most people's bad experiences come from picking poor times to talk to them. Like don't try talking to them if they just came off a tough battle, in a middle of repairs or doing something important. If you catch them in down time or whatever, or even just casually walking through the pits or in the stands they're some of the most fun guys you can hang out with and chat with.
Dudes always been a humble dude bro, Fursty and Xbenzv (His partners merc) are iconic in the street scene here in nz, so they were always active, approachable and just genuinely good people, Rotor corner was where it was at early late 90s early 00s🤘
Congrats Daiki watched you on the live coverage online. The new car livery really stands out, because the live feed I was watching was in Japanese only and I only knew it was Daiki because of the car.
Daiki was cooking🔥👌The SR God was with you today😁 Thank you Sam, Okachan, May, Riley, Tanaka San and everyone involved for making this possible for Daiki. It's safe to say that Sam's fans have now become fans of Daiki too. We're super proud of him and equally proud of all of you guys too!
Sam you need to bring Daiki-san to America with you one of these times. Make a whole video of him experiencing America. I feel like it would just be an all around adorable video. Love to see him enjoying his “brand-new” drift car.
Wonderful interview with MM. He loves that car, cool to hear how passionate he is with it. The scenery in Japan is so beautiful, what a view walking down that hill
Congrats Daiki on qualifying.🙏 You deserve all the luck in the world, coz you are a simple decent guy with no real support,but with Sammit helping you am sure you will become a rising star.
Sammit sick vid and insane cars also Huge Congrats to you and to Daiki for qualifying he absolutely shredded nicely done Daiki 👌 and your son in the Race Car at the end priceless keep up the great work 👍
".......There's a killer on the road, driftin like it's owed! Give this man a car and he'll drive you straight tooo far....... THERE'S A KILLER ON THE ROAD......" CONGRATULATIONS, DAIKI ON MAKING KINGS BOW AND LOVE YOU!
Congratulations Daiki! Maybe next time, he spent a lot of time without driving as the car needed to be fixed... Mad Mike on the channel, what an amazing episode!
Much love mad mike New Zealand represent so so real to see that rotary again it’s come along way im from a town near the Taupo racetrack I remember seeing your car there bout 15 years ago at least good stuff Sammy boi thanks for that
Watched the vid on my tv here in the US SoCal. Then hopped on my phone to shoot Daiki a congrats on the race and awesome time, dedication and work he puts into all those cars plus his own! I would love to head out there one day and visit you guys! I wish y’all a blessed day and I’ll be watching all your vids, keep Killin it with the awesome content. Your an amazing and inspiring person and has opened my eyes and taught me a lot through your extensive knowledge and inside look into your world. ❤
Japanese make the funniest sounds when talking. Not words but the way they express like "ahhhh!" Or "ohhh!" My daughters mother's mother is from japan and the sounds she makes always cracks me tf up.
D1NZ final round here in NZ was carnage, if you have not watched go check it out, numerous big wall hits and the dreaded drift fire!!! also bummer mad Mike didn't qualify .
Congratulations daiki🎉🥳 your doing so well mate make sure you keep pushing forward and you will eventually get to d1. Love from ya boi Squishy from Australia
i'm sorry, but what Daiki is to Sammit? just a friend? employee? i'm really sorry, i know sammit from like a year or 2 ago but just subscribed he's channel this year but is SO NICE all the friendship and almost "paternity" that he has with Daiki :D p.s.- Daiki looks like the type of person who deserve it all and much more... but i'm just curious!
I believe Daiki was like an intern from the auto school that became an actual employee and friend. And I would say they're teammates but not in an official manner.
Congrats daiki on getting qualified and can’t wait for his engine to get rebuild and maybe go into gp but all and all love the content get to see behind the scenes in this kind of comp and the rules that it has is ridiculous to say the least 😅😅
I like how Daiki is super soft spoken and then get him behind the wheel and he's super aggressive lol.
mad mike what a legend just making time to talk to sam boi
he will talk to anyone as if hes been your friend for years

i'm sorry, but what Daiki is to Sammit? just a friend? employee? i'm really sorry, i know sammit from like a year or 2 ago but just subscribed he's channel this year but is SO NICE all the friendship and almost "paternity" that he has with Daiki :D
p.s.- Daiki looks like the type of person who deserve it all and much more... but i'm just curious!
From employee to close friend and driver. DK has come a long way in a few years
Daiki is a friend employee and teammate I'd say ! Daiki is an absolute integral part of the Sammit crew now without a doubt !!
I believe Daiki was like an intern from the auto school that became an actual employee and friend. And I would say they're teammates but not in an official manner.
Thank u guys! Its what i thought.. but thats increrible how Sammit cares about him and help him like he was family!!
“Fucking good!” 😂😂😂 1:49
Congratulations daiki good work bless up from New Zealand
