    To me, even if you have no connection with JDM history and that 90s culture, the Supra is still just a gorgeous, gorgeous car. I remember thinking that back when I was a kid and wasn't even interested in cars; when I saw it part of my unconscious mind noted down that it was a beautiful silhouette, which it is. It's just an almost perfect shape: smooth, sleek, elegant.
    That a 'car guy' like Hammond doesn't see that obvious aesthetic quality puzzles me, because it seems to be the most obvious feature of the mk4: it's not a showy car, it's not striking, it doesn't drop your jaw...it's just extremely pleasing to look at.

      It's the generational difference though really. As said in the video, all the 90s JDM cars are iconic primarily because of Gran Turismo, Initial D, and F&F, and consequently all the instagram/tiktok videos alluding the cars to those franchises. On a timeline where those franchises don't exist, the Supra really isn't anything special. Good? Absolutely no doubt, but it wouldn't otherwise be seen as anything different from say a Mercedes SL, Alfa Romeo Spyder, or Porsche 944 of the same vintage (inb4 weebs crying in 3, 2, 1).
      To address the now raging weebs, yes, I'm not disparaging against what 90s JDM cars achieved in motorsports in the 90s, but motorsports is far more niche than the games/movies mentioned. Really it was only the R32 GTR, Subaru Impreza, and Mitsubishi Evo that really had an impact in the west at the time through rallying, Group A touring cars, and Le Mans. Yeah the JGTC was a thing, but westerner's wouldn't have been aware of it in the 90s, this is pre-social media, hence why Hammond doesn't really connect with the Supra. Hammond isn't a gamer at all, and I doubt he ever really gave a shit about F&F.
      I should also mention that another reason 90s JDM cars are iconic is because in the mid 00s to early/mid 10s, they were dirt cheap performance cars that could perform far far beyond their price range; a working-man's sports car, but that era is long dead lol. I remember when you could get a mint R34 GTR for around £6k, and that was the most expensive of the JDMs in Banzai magazine classifieds lmao, EVERYTHING else would be £4.5k to as little as £1.5k.

    • @thesprawl2361
      @thesprawl2361 Год назад

      @@solitaryclusterofneurons598 No, I think the Supra is simply a lovely looking car. Its silhouette is just very pretty. I've personally always found Porsche 911s, especially the older ones, rather ugly to look at, with their duck bill front ends, although the 944 was nice-ish in some variants. Still looks strangely lop-ended when viewed from the side, with the bonnet much lower than it should be for the purposes of a kind of symmetry.
      I've never watched a single F&F movie, I dislike JDM 'culture' and I missed out completely on Gran Turismo since I only played arcade racers until fairly recently. So its 'iconicness' is neither here nor there for me. Like I said I remember liking the way it looked back when I was nine or ten and didn't know anything about cars.

    Wow, Jimmy. So many emotions. First of all: HOW THE BLOODY HELL DID I MISS YOU OWN A SUPRA NOW?!? Then: I've followed your channel for a long time and I really love what you're doing, you seem to be a good lad and you earned every last bit of your success - and I appreciate you sharing it. I also love sim racing, been gaming all my life (and also eventually made a living in computer games). Then: I've watched Top Gear all my life, always been a petrol head. Huge fan of the antics of Mr. Clarkson, Hammond and May. I'm 40 now so that puts me somewhat in between the 2 of you sitting there, age-wise. And I can relate to both your worlds soooo well, it's uncanny. My parents never thought gaming would stick as a hobby into adulthood, nor did they understand when I started earning money with it, so it hit very close to home when you said you had a hard time explaining your job to your mom! xD But then, being older than the internet and having spent my teenage years without a smartphone, wifi and internet flatrate, I can also relate to Richard's world and "analogue" perspective on things. Needless to say, it's super awesome that you're also doing Full Metal Racing now! Last but not least, seeing you and Richard together in a video is just amazing, thanks to both of you for doing this.

    Richard Hammond is such a great interviewer, really engaging and charming. Should make a career out of it. Good thing he now has street credit interviewing our one and only Jimmer.

    I think it is 'real' racing, in the sense that there's a 'real' danger you could get seriously hurt doing it, I guess

    Nice man. Found you through your video with Hammond on DriveTrube. Subbed now purely out of curiousity over how you do up the Supra.
    That aspiration for JDM cars in the 90s man...

Another brilliant vid much appreciated! 🤝 A legend creating content with another legend, another video i couldn't click on any faster!

    I think the best way to explain the Supra to Richard would be the scene from FF, at the lights, next to the Ferrari.
    In that moment, so many young kids were told that you don't have to have performance money for a performance car. Just time, hard work, and a lot of scrapping around, you can turn mum's JDM hand-me-down into a hell of a car.
    The whole JDM 90s-00s era is simply that. Getting a car and modifying it to perform with top-end at a cost sponsored by fast food wages.
    But not only that, you could make the car how you wanted; drift, time attack, track, street, show, rally-x, whatever you wanted it to be.
    And when you slapped it into a barrier or kerb, it didn't matter. You'd keep the damage as a sign of, "I'm too broke to fix this because I'm too busy saving for the next upgrade" which everyone respected.
    "What's the retail on one of those?"
    "More than you can afford, pal. Ferrari."
    That sums up the Supra and so many other JDMs of that era. They're icons now and loved by the multitude of us common folk.

    This is really interesting to watch for me. I think I am aged kinda between the two.. I grew up watching Richard when he was much younger, hosting various shows and being ...well, Hammond. Years later YT become a place where you weren't just scraping the video locations from browser dev environments and downloading them, it become a proper monetized platform and... even longer after that, Jimmer turns up and reminds me of the fun I had on early racing games and sims.
    Seeing them both interacting in the one video is a really cool merging of two wildly separate times in my own world and I enjoyed it a lot.

  • @TimoDick
    @TimoDick Год назад

    Entertaining and informative to watch, Jimmy! The fact I like most is that Hammond actually seems to have taken the time to prepare himself for the interview. I had expected some shallow chit chat - but instead most of it built on background knowledge and dug a little deeper!

  • @JelloFluoride
    @JelloFluoride Год назад +1

    I can honestly thank Jimmy for getting me into motorsports. I've always had a cursory interest in it but showing me how to make it more fun and accessible through Sim just made it even more cool.

    Jimmy, I remember watching your rFactor/iRacing streams on RUclips circa 2013. I'll be honest, I was more interested in Matt Malone and the Twitch side of sim racing at that time, but I've really warmed up to your content over the years as I've seen you grow your channel into what it is today.
    I know it's never been all sunshine and rainbows and it never will be for any of us, but I just want to say I'm really happy for you. What a great conversation you had with Hammond!

    Hammond giving you a hard time in good fun for how you came up kind of discounts the talent and legit skills you have as an entertainer, an announcer and driver. Keep up the great work. You deserve your successes.

      @johnhodgetts6617 2 года назад

      Now this is interesting. You say you loved Top Gear as if you think Hammond hasn't done anything since. Did you know about the existence of The Grand Tour and the Drivetribe RUclips channel before this? If not, Jimmer has given Hammond relevance for you again, which would be quite a bizarre situation.

    This interview has inducted Richard Hammond into "I must talk to this person, before I croak, about the world of personal transportation, as it's both developing and unraveling and this same time." type status. This is the era where years and makes and models of cars become the standards of thoroughbred examples for the motoring community and will determine the recreational value people derive from the cars that we love today, and value those cars demand tomorrow.

    I think one of the reasons we love watching streaming, as Hammond does not get - is that it replaces what my generation used to do growing up. We sat beside eachother, often times with one playing and one watching. Being a young gamer in the 90s we were often many ppl around one PC, commenting and interacting.
    The same can be said about the streaming service. A likeable friendly guy that you share the gaming experience with, now that all of us connect via internet. It has replaced playing at eachothers houses.
