Crazy content Alexi I sometimes wish D1 was under 800bhp. Would make it interesting like the old days. 1000bhp is just to fast. Great skills over-all. Note_I feel for you, on your car that burned out/away. Keep it coming man. Always supportive to drifting/twitch streams.
Yeah bring back D1 2006! Sub 500bhp was common and more fun to watch. Look at that shit show formula D. Everything has 1200hp and is just point and click.
I don't think you guys realise how difficult it is to control these cars as opposed to lower HP cars. Yes these cars have more power but they also have bigger, stickier tyres and mechanical grip that's pushed to the limits. Grip levels are so high that you have to drive the car on its limits because they're so violent in the way they handle. To be honest I'm a big advocate of not going back to the old days. Yeah they were great, but the sport has to evolve and move on. Also think about the drivers, I'm sure doing the same thing for 15+ years gets boring and old. Drivers will want new challenges and seeking more adrenaline rush each time and the way to do that is to evolve the engineering to go faster and harder. It's like the guys that constantly go on about the GroupB rally days. Yeah they were golden, but modern engineering and technology allows the WRC cars to actually go WAY faster and a hell of a lot more precise than back then. I'm sure if WRC didn't move on from GroupB everyone would be bored of it, drivers included and drifting is no different.
@@stingerrgb2754 I agree, we can have both. It's called D1 Lights (formerly D1 Street Legal). If you want 2000's D1 then go and watch the lower leagues which have restrictions to bring it in line with the power and grip levels of old D1. Let D1GP be it's own thing to bring in new innovation and engineering into the sport.
Wonderful. Every time i watch these videos i'm reminded of people who say that to drift properly "You need to lower the car to the ground till it scrapes and the wheel tuck." 🤣🤣
I miss early 2000's D1GP. The cars were beautifully built, liveries were super cool, the slides were elegant. D1GP used to be art. Now? These are just tools to drift at wider angle, higher speed and more smoke, you don't even know if those are just car shells sitting on tube frames with whatever engines they are. Yeah, sure the competition itself is evolving, but the sense of beauty is going backwards.
@06:35 #46 would be the younger of the Suenaga brothers; Masao Suenaga 👏 @02:22 #70 Yokoi Masashi's looks an awful lot like Masao's car too..! (cuz teammates)
I think this angle is better than the stream angle. good stuff Alexi!
Love this angle, Really captures the snap of that transition, looks aggressive!
"oh oh not again"... Poor Kohashi. Hopefully next season will have better luck 🤞
He seems to have mechanical issues every round, this just isn't his year sadly
8:36 Three wheeling on initiation. Pretty cool
Nice spot. It's cool seeing most of them tripod on transition too, but that was extra cool.
0:57 Here's one as well!
The sound of the gravel hitting the rail was weirdly satisfying
What I love about D1 is that those drivers are incredible. You cannot compare them with anyone
Raw sounds are back !! lots of love Alexi!!
7:52 this has to be the craziest of the bunch, love this car
Rotary goodness is always good to see. Thanks Alexi!

@@AWSimDrifter i agree
@@AWSimDrifter Or you could have both.

These engines only know two states: idle or against the rev limiter...there´s nothing in between!
Really great shots noriyaro!
6:05 That initiation is aggressive as hell
thanks noriyaro is so cool raw souds is the best , nice quality !
Damn this looks so much cooler than the angles they show on the livestream
And better frames or a spot light camera
It's just crazy just how fast these guys are.
the transition is just nuts and the three wheel motion
Damn man, Glad to see you doing good!
Man, this is the speeeeed we're missing out on, thanks for this!
crazy entries and changes of direction!
those alignments!
Amazing video Alexi! Love it! 😍
Awww yiiiis alternative angle shots. 💙 It's like a reward.
Autopolis us such a underrated track I love drifting this tracks reverse drift section in video games
This was insane! I loved every second of it
parts test
Dude,the quality of your camera 📷👌🏻
FC and orange S13 tho 😎
Excellent quality footage as always! And your occasional commentary made it even better!
Great shots, really gives an appreciation for the speed, plus how quickly some of these guys are initiating and transitioning
Alexi I love how you filmed this!!!! Thank you!!!
Excellent camera work! It's amazing how fast these guys drift.
I wish the official broadcast sounded and looked this good.
Sheesh, some of those transitions are just plain VIOLENT
Noriyaro is the uncle we all wanted!
Awesome stuff, thanks for the share. So glad there is still some rotary love at drift events.
It is insane how far drifting has become, the current D1 cars are nuts. Thanks for uploading.
Thanks for sharing Alexi!
Alexi is living the dream. Respect from the pond.
The way the inside tyre just lifts off, insane
Awesome camera work!
Great footage mate
The sound is so sick! Awesome video!! 🤓
Love the sound effects ☺️
The sound is just amazing
damn some of those transitions are quick
Need more in car footage!
The white rx-7 looked mint and those s15s lifting their front outside wheel's 😀
love the full send edition
Nice format video!
yokoi's transition at 0:14 looks like the video is speed up
these guys are nuts
"yeah, i am also listining to asmr to sleep"
"oh like rain or something"
"..... sure"
The mark 2 is killen it 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Agrh that sound, i like it 1:10 4:37 7:14
Insane
Katsuhiro Ueo,Utsumi Akinori,Yukio Matsui and Masato Kawabata really have a badass entry with thick smoke...
Insane grip levels 🤯🔥
Wonderful.
Every time i watch these videos i'm reminded of people who say that to drift properly "You need to lower the car to the ground till it scrapes and the wheel tuck." 🤣🤣
Insane!!
Completely different level
JZ noises, the movie.
Man the overall level of driving over there is just so insane
The sound of my people! 😍👂💨🇯🇵
Up in smoke !
3:20 Shots fired!
I like it when they hold out the first drift corner longer into the third corner
Its all about carrying speed
That Lexus was hurt!!!
It's weird that there's so many S15's and S13's, but no S14's.
S14 must be like the R33, nobody runs them
Props to the guy running an S13.
Ok thats scarily fast
JDM drift cars are running such low profile tires now !
I'm glad they're still using 180s. The pros here in the states don't use s13s anymore and it's a little sad
Every time a blow off valve chirps an Angel gets its wings
Imagine not clicking the bell on the second channel 😬
My favorite runs were when they took the inside of the first corner, drove the front wheel on it, and then snapped it back the other way
Raw Alexi sound
Nořiyaro yuh bad like dem??
Damn the sound tho
HOLY CRAP
mmmm smoke and noises.

7 BLOODY MINUTES AGO, HOT DAMN
Looks like all the new supras are initiating with a lot more angle than any of the cars. Just me? Does it have a shorter wheelbase than an s15?
I swear Uenos car is lifting the rear wheel when he tips in at entry
sick video dude
RIP ur project :(
These cars mostly sound to be on the same engine.. is it the bmw?
jeeeeeeeeeze
Why don't they use blow-off valve ? Isn't sututu bad for turbos?
the main reason i prefer D1 over FD is because FD put a v8 in any car and d1 just sounds so much better
8:35 Did he really just lift the front tire on whats basically a straight? o_O
Now we can see it in real speed.. tv camera made them seem slower than they actually go
Japanese in-line 6’s sound so violent
Holy fuck Naoki is fast
is this limi bashing part of new style?
What engine are those first 2 Silvias running? I'm having a problem trying to find out what engine those are, are they V8?
Jzs everywhere
What engine is in that red S15 at ~7:50?
vr38
Didn't realize they ran Infiniti's out there under that brand, not Nissan.
Djeez, thats some aggressive driving. Like it
Still no EV drift cars, shame
what are those things revving too? 9k?
Who's driving the D-Max blue Silvia #46? Looks great!
@06:35 #46 would be the younger of the Suenaga brothers; Masao Suenaga 👏
@02:22 #70 Yokoi Masashi's looks an awful lot like Masao's car too..! (cuz teammates)
Oh, oops! I got Masashi's name backwards!
Given name: Masashi
Family name: Yokoi
Hence, his name is Masashi Yokoi 🙏
@@wahaha6961 Thank you! His control is amazing!
@@SCKevin_Adventure They are both excellent drivers!
Masao Suenaga's older brother Naoto Suenaga (@00:22) is incredible as well!
Awesome stuff! Andrew Gray is No1! Definitely not a fellow Scot.....
New plan alexi new jzx100
07:52 10:05
I don't think this much hp is exciting to watch. I'm way more excited to watch close to stock power 86s drive close together.
