- Flat out SHREDDING at a bucketlist track of mine - Biķernieki in Riga, Latvia. Kristaps was kind enough to let us use the HGK shop and also give us an awesome tour. Every $5 spent on LZMFG.com or DriftHQ.com get you entered for a chance to win our GR Corolla and $15,000 cash!
Gotta give props to Adam’s team for rebuilding his FD car in time for Seattle. Awesome job 👏
Might've went through a few duds before moving to the compound but the team now is dialed! Pretty rad to see the growth
Rebuilding, more like building a new one but yeah
@@Ruudiiifr , they deadass just swapped shells cos they literally had one ready to go 😅😂
@@hp450karats They didn’t have one ready to go, they just got lucky because Adam’s friend just happened to be building an e36 and was willing to sell it to him
Nah but yall see his carbon e36? This thing is insane
In the passenger side, at the base of the A-Pilar downbar, there’s a hole that lets in SOOOO much tire smoke. I’m sure a small piece of tape over it would help a lot with cabin smoke.
About to comment the same. I couldn't stop looking at it once I saw it.
I noticed that too and came straight to comments 😂
Would love to see them spend the time to seal the cabin better, makes such a difference on the few builds I've seen where they spend the time and effort to do it.
I seen that to... Alot of smoke coming in there..
@MikeyFIXED456 it's from the wreck that caved in that rocker and floor
Man the interior shots look like youre flying. One of the few times I was excited about interior drift footage! Also you forgot to say "I Love Winning Riga". How could you forget so quickly! 😂
That first chase run in practice really highlighted Adam's speed, he almost rear ended the lead like 3 times just trying to keep the car in drift. Absolutely cooking out there, love it
it goes HARD!!
@@JoebobinatorRight! I noticed that too. What really surprised me was the very first practice lap tho. Everyone usually accelerates and then scrubs a ton of speed but LZ seemed like he had way more speed coming into turn one and continued that speed throughout the entire run. It looked nuts especially since I wasnt expecting it. When both inside and outside footage look that gnarly you know hes cooking!
@@nomad_thoharder than me trying to park a Dodge
Yea it’s that second angle they rarely ever use. From the camera on the far A pillar. Makes it look cinematic and fas AF.
This track is one of the most intense tracks I’ve seen you drive at. The interior shots are insane
Yeah it looks crazy how fast they are around it. 🤯
Never seen interior shots where you could tell how fast they were going. It almost doesnt look real!
@@turbocateyeS475 really showed the speed and the struggle that went into wheeling that track. LZ showed up in a big way
i do this track on the sim all the time its by far my favorite its absolutely mental to can't imagine irl initiation speed
It's probably the fastest track I've watched someone drift at. I can only imagine how it feels to actually drive there. The Gs have got to be insane, because the GoPro for the interior shots was literally getting pulled down by the forces more and more as he went through the track, lol.
The deadpan "hold on, I'm on fire again." 🤣
He's just used to it by now, lmao. Idk wtf is up with him and tire fires. It's like they're airing up his tires with flammable gas instead of air, lmao.
Even the track guys werent phased by it 😂
if the car is not on fire, he´s not having fun
The old blue car never had tire fires when it had that hole in the fender... just saying.
Latvians for sure stoked watching this video 🤣 🇱🇻
Kādu laiku nebiju sekojis LZ tgd rekomendācijās izmeta video, reāli nezināju ka viņš bija Latvijā😂
20:02 is by far and away the most amazing camera angle I've ever seen in a car. Shows how completely insane these cars and drivers are. So insanely epic.
Yeah, ever since they started using that pan feature on the new gopro's, its ruined the feel.
Kristaps is the man in my top 3 for sure. Very nice of him and the team to help you guys out, that's why drifting is awesome.
It’s my opinion that the HGK Eurofighter is the best looking kit out there. James’ car makes it looks so freaking sick. Awesome seeing the place where all of those are made
Agreed. I don't really care for body kits on street cars anymore as I get older, but that kit for the E92 looks amazing. James' car is awesome!
Latvia is a beautiful country. I did a 6 month deployment there and had a blast. Beautiful country awesome people
adam with all of the recent incidents that have happened you’ve shown how capable you and your team are in persevering and coming back stronger than ever. i can’t wait for you to smash the last few rounds of FD
Lauri's car is sick, could listen to it all day.
Driver too..
@@unknownnick404 never heard him speak, not sure if I would listen to him all day.
@@plebtile3347 He speaks English like a typical Finn, so it's definitely not something you wanna listen to all day.
Man when I heard it in person in Spain I couldn’t believe how sick it sounded, you can recognize it from the other side of the track.
I’m an absolute nobody but you know what’s weird? I feel proud of you, lots of reasons from life in general but watching you progress has been an inspiration. Showing my boys the first video of you ever doing a donut, to first drift event, first battle win, first podium, first win, to Drift Masters, etc…As outsiders (strangers) we don’t get to have a front row seat to you progressing through everything your doing. It’s a weird emotion to feel proud of you; I sure hope you’re proud of yourself. I think you probably are but I know you’re hard on yourself (shoulda coulda woulda stuff) and that’s what keeps you motivated. I’m happy to see you progressive and showing off overseas now too.
You are an inspiration to a lot of kids (like my 8 and 10yr old). They’ve both gotten pics with you they feel like they know you lol they convinced me to buy my first drift build (mustang gt) and I’m going to hit up learners day as OSW. My 10yr old can already drive and he’s convinced he’ll be battling you at 13 years old 😆
even if you hadnt said you have kids i wouldve guessed you were a father (take that as a compliment you sound like an amazing dad and role model)
@@CrazyElf hey thanks, that means a lot!
your a great dad man! enjoy your drift journey and your kids aswell it’s definently a wild ride and a roller coaster of emotions but it’s all worth it!
@@88e303stanggt of course! the biggest thing about kids is that theyre like a sponge when theyre younger, they also look up to you a lot and will copy you when they dont know what to do, so just be a good role model for them and teach them how to learn, they will do amazing things i know it :)
20:57 That interior shot was Pure Cinematography gold an absolute Masterpiece of capturing that run. Looks and Sounds incredible 🔥
20:00 this angle is what we need more of! Absolute perfection
Yes, exactly!!!
In car footage this round is crazyyy. I like how you changed the position of the GoPro. You looked like you were going 200 mph. By far the coolest in car drifting footage I’ve ever seen
Thank you Adam for giving your energy to your viewers, smiling, listening to every story, taking photos. Like I said when meeting you - keep going! Greetings from Lithuania!🇱🇹
1:15:36 That's all that matters! Having a good time and gaining more experience in what you love. I know none of this would probably be possible without your viewers etc. But I think it's only fair to say thank you for taking us along on everything. In good times as far as bad times. So thank you Adam 😊
The level of European drivers over American drivers especially with consistency of their laps is unreal to me
Cool to see you in Latvia finally!
RIGA BABY 💪🔥🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻
Dude, thanks for always being humble and real. A lot of people wouldn't have been able to transition from blaming the car to "I see the mistake I made" so easily. Your attitude is why I keep watching.
Yo I’m I half way though the video and I am amazed! That in car footage shows how freaking insane it is to drift at that lvl. Your a beast!
Therapy for the last 8 yrs plus
That’s what I remember from the first time I watched you and the hatch
Thanks Kyle
Pure inspiration
Riga has to be the world's best drift track. Sooo good.
LETS GOO!! FINALLY THE F30 IS GETTING LOOKED AT AS A PLATFORM!!
And AMAZING driving at Riga, that track is insane!
“I love walls” should be turned into merch lol
He had a shirt/ hoodie pre order that said I love walls with his crashed e36 on it
It did, but it was a limited run to fund the "new" E36 build for Seattle
It was. He did a huge 48 hour presale to fund the build of the new fd chassis.
WOW that track loooooooks insane and the carried speed looks ridiculous!!!!!!
Yeah the speed they carry is insane. They have some crazy grippy tires they run over there.
"It's Riga baby!"
*the camera angle from the passenger side B pillar was sick, that plus a pedal cam would be elite*
Thanks for keeping it real, your authenticity is refreshing
Silence assbot
I agree with your statement, his humility is always refreshing too! Hes an amazing driver and can figure out any course(downhill course in South America was awesome) and yet he never judges anyone else, condemns anyone else in any way, and he has nothing but respect for everyone around him! Probably the big reason some other drifters barely have 200k followers, where LZ is closing in on 4million! That and hes not scared of huge horsepower drift machines( some guys barely run over 400hp and sure there might be some extra skill involved in that as well, but i feel like mostly they’re just afraid of the big boy cars)
@@alexsahli7988bro replied an essay to a bot
Mee too buddy. Im from Latvia. Started watching your channel when you made bmx videos because i was riding mtb in skateparks,then i got bored of bikes and jumped back in your channel when i saw that you are making drift content. You made me fell in love with drift,now i folliw every event of FD and DMGP and ofcourse now i drive bmw myself! Thank you for bringing me in drift world!
Few places in the world are better to have a BMW chassis worked on lol. Bluss and Deonfa's are probably the best 2 people to work with on them lol.
19:13 I was thinking the same, THE ANGLE... 🫣
that rear mounted interior angle from the side is killer, shows your handwork and kinda the footwork because of your legs being in view. The way it portrays the action tho and gives the viewer a great view of the window and driver is just perfect. keep that angle for drift and rally videos its too good
man bluss was awesome, I've never really seen him on camera talk much. that was a sick tour of HGK. what an upload
I had the opportunity to stop into HGK last January and Kristaps was kind enough to give me a tour of the shop. The production quality and the shop itself is nothing short of impressive. Also if I remember correctly the Riga Automotive Museum is very close to the track. Very well done as well for a country that doesn’t have the most in automotive history
It is. One of ther corners of the track is actually called the Motormuseum corner, it's the section just before the drift lauyout's burnout pit
The second interior angle is mental, can really feel the speed compared to the POV type go pro shot. Keep pushing the limits
The in-car footage is so insanely fast it looks fake! absolutely amazing car control at that kind of speed
the incar footage of this car is absolutely insane, you can really FEEL how much correction is required and how fast youre going.
CRAZY
Would love to have Ginge audio and sometimes a Ginge cam on a miniscreen would be cool to hear some back and forths
The absolute chaos sounds with the new interior camera angle, absolutely love it
19:13 holy shit you were at a solid 180 degrees for that first corner 😂 mans really loves walls now, even gave himself a full view of the walls for a good 4 seconds
IKR?! That entry was almost a backie, lmao. I wish we could've seen the exterior view of that one.
In car camera goes crazy!!! Foot cam in the bottom left would be chef kiss
Any video with Kristaps needs the clip of him driving the car off Jack stands to try make the call in FD, legend
Hello from Latvia, didn't even know you were coming, can't wait you to came to LV again, watching your videos since 2007, huge fan
You need to make a shirt with the blue and white E36's and make them have tire fires.
I love the long videos! So much fun. Thank you Mike and everyone who puts these together!
21:32 was the best angle to show the speed and manic ability of the car and in my opinion captured the most translator data in the since of speed you got from it and how well that as a viewer came across to me
That’s also super cool that you handled this build all on your own with out any major experience. Congrats man
I’ve watched your content since the BMX days and love the progression I’ve seen. I’d love to see a bmx bike strapped to the roof of the new blue chassis E36 as a homage
I love how much everyone is taking care of your car… killer driving this weekend ❤
Im loving the more playstation era grand turismo style music during the b-roll. chefs kiss times ten.
REEEEALY COOL VID! Thank You Adam & everyone involved....Kristaps place is awesome
That second interior shot looks like a movie 🍿 ❤
the livery on the car gives me big nfs most wanted vibes, god that brings me back
Wow, that's an impressive shop
Who remembers the SEMA DRAMA video lol, so cool to see Adam come around full circle and compete with the " Unlimited budget" teams and even work with the company that was the main fovus for that video.
Chassis tables are definitely necessary when building Chassis 😂
Especially when you cut so much out of them
The second year rule îs always proven.. frist year events can't be competitive.. tot much to learn.. second year wins start tot come... Been watching youu sincer the BMX days.. now i work în motorsport because the love of cars that You and a few guys inspired me tot have
I feel like when Adam and Johan are on a competition like this they are unstoppable
I never knew Christapps was the founder of HGK thats friggen siiiick
one of HGK stands for three names
ITS RIGA BABY!!!
The side angle in the interior is goated
Greetings from Latvia! You have to come back and win some battles :) Didnt had time to visit you in the track, i hope to meet you next time :) been following since 2017
Loved to see you go wild in Riga. You should come to Latvia for some winter drifting!😉
It’s crazy how inside it looks jerky as hell but the outside it looks so smooth 😮💨
Adam you have progressed so much; so proud of you and your team.
Got to give to Kristaps and Haris, boiz thumbs UP. Its Cool to see that the have don it! Awesome video
It's all good Adam, its your first time there, you now know what to expect for next time.
I was there in Latvia and I was stoked to see you on the track and hearing the car skid by
20:01 Damn I got RobyWorks "It's Riga baby" video flashbacks from that angle holy fck. MOOOREEEE
I SUPPORT THE SUN HAT IDEA!!!🤘🏼
you just jumping in there and driving the track on the first try is incredible, not every grassroot drifter is even capable of completing a lap around here.
I'd like to see you guys in Riga again... despite that zone....that 2nd qualifying run was on point!!!💯💯💥
havnt finished watching yet, but god damn that second qualifying run was gnarly!!!!! i was amazed how u were able to drop enough speed for that last zone off the flick, sheeesh
That's sick. Hope you enjoyed Latvia
Hello from Latvia. Watching your channel since e92 335i since I got the n54 powered car 😊
Regardless of the outcome, seeing you throw down some heaters here at Riga, was incredible to see. Driving with some of the best in the world, on a track you've never been...Massive respect for you, the team, and the positivity you always bring no matter what.
The CARBON E36 IS SCREAAAAAMING
Unlucky with the curb, but nice try ! Can't believe to see you in my homeland, much love from Latvia! Hope you enjoyed your time here! Been watching you since ~300k subs and now years later even drifting our local track, got damn!
The e36 with a tire fire definitely needs to be on a tshirt
I like your Style. Something fresh in Latvija
20:02 is a sick camera angle, would love to see more of that
I really hope GoPro or whatever action cameras you guys use throw you something, these are the best ads for them next to the redbull commercials
Great having you and your team in Latvia Adam ❤💪
that first qualifier was perfect until it wasn't 🤣
Those inner car shots are crazy we need this on every video
That F30 wide body kit 🤤🙏🏾🙏🏾
Bro your a G i was on the edge of my seat when you were in practice threwing heaters
Deam,nice i am watching your channel Long time,and you was in My Home country Latvia :) nice!!❤️❤️❤️
Man, I was eyeing Driftmasters but decided not to go because that week was far too tiring at work. Who knew you'd be there in the flesh!
This track is so damn fast, jeeeeeeeezus
Must be super rewarding when you get a good lap on Riga
Okay that GoPro angle is sick 20:03
what a good and smooth noise
Put some TAPE over those holes in the car foot wells.. that will nearly stop all the smoke in the car
Thanks for getting your car fixed. We got to see you in monroe.
man that 45 degree camera angle with what looks something that isnt a gopro... straight MONEY. wow
Keep killing the game lzmfg crew
broo, I remember I watched your videos when you drove BMX, and now I seen you are in my country. Sad I didn't knew it earlier that you will be here. Hello from Latvia.
