Larry Chen you're Absolutely Insane man... Thanks for showing Chi-Town Love and don't be a stranger we would love to see more of you all across the Midwest
Chicago representing here... Sorry to Larry and everyone about the speedbumps on lower wacker. Some idiots in mustangs trying to do donuts caused those.
This was such a rad Autofocus! Larry you should try to do more club/cruise shoots like this. i understand this particular outting was a special re-creation of sorts but this just had such an amazing feeling to it. Maybe a Hoonigan cruise, everyone hitting the canyons or something? that is if everyone can have a running vehicle theyre proud of at the same time lol
I’ve had a cop come up to me and before I can get a word out he said “let me guess you bought it like that” referring to my straight pipped exhaust. 🤦🏻♂️😂 he was chill.
Beautifully done. Reminds me of 2010-2013 Risky Devil days. Larry my guy, you've captured the spirit of car enthusiasts having the time of their lives. This video is exactly what we needed during this chaotic 2020! And you were able to recreate the experience, via video this time. 10/10, in my feels. grassroot drifting forever.
One of the best HAF videos by far. That feeling of late night streets and parking lots is the best. Amazing photos as always too. But damn what a solid night.
@LarryChen having followed you for years and seeing the crazy cars you've shot throughout the years. I'm amazed by how stoked you still got in this video. It truly is good to see someone so passionate about what they do. Keep it going.
Best part about this was Larry’s outlook on the evening all throughout. Obviously everyone had a lot of fun, but Larry was really seeing it through the widest aperture and possibly the “biggest picture” perspective, looking at it from years ago and for years to come all at once. More than just another night of hooning, but as a remake of an old memory that’ll last for the rest of their lives. Awesome shit!
Between them and TMFS in Minnesota they pretty much started the drift 'scene' in Minnesota/Wisconsin/Illinois way back in the mid-2000's. Really nice people and are absolute legends.
Risky Devil and Proceed was were the first times I seen drifting and tandems. Being from chicago, it was mind blowing to discover they're both Chicago teams and genuinely the coolest irl.
Rich Kastler that’s not true at all. Risky devil came in way late, like 2008. Proceed used to be grip gambler and then there was Velocity racing out of Indianapolis. That was in like 1999. That’s where drifting started in the Midwest. And save for a few crews out west, they were pretty much the pioneers of US drifting.
01 SPIRIT actually proceed is a combination of some of the old Risky Devil guys, AND Grip Gambler guys. Proceed is a whole different team from my knowledge.
This was an Amazing episode of Autofocus , the pure enjoyment of cruising streets in drift cars is so relatable , miss that feeling back in the days! Also you and Ryan talking @17:30 remind me of the China Drift vids in 2009.
I'm not sure how many times I've seen these videos but here I am watching them again, and I'm sure I'll be back to refresh my memory of this greatness created by the kings of the car community 🔥😎👌
The last 10 minutes of this video hit me hard. We all live for our own moments... cars are life for me and is my getaway as well. Keep making these videos and sharing your stories
This is one of your best features yet bro. Your passion for this industry is so encouraging and intoxicating lol. I always look forward to your content MGL all day
I love this man! Just taking it back to the streets, cruisin', getting dope shots, this is one of the better videos I've seen in a long time. Thank you for getting this kind of content out.
Oh shit the Honda at 22:00 has a Darling in the FranXX livery! I thought that was Zero Two, and then I saw the title on the side with the iconic double X.
i drive alone because what friends i have are not around and not that into cars. but i love when i can go for a drive with other car people. it's so chill and views are awesome to see.
Chicago has the best drift cars hands down we may not live near a bay for car imports so those aren't our strongest points but we dont deal with emissions on older cars so we can do crazy ass swaps also we have winter down time perfect for engine rebuilds and body work that's why our cars look and sound so good we also live in the salt belt so our cars rott real fast but the community strips thoes unsaveable chassis to bare bones and the rest of the community benifits from those hard to find parts nothing gets wasted here also we have a ton of specialty tuner shops all around us so the scene is real out here. Thank you Larry for all your efforts! Well done this one is a real banger🤘
Absolutly fantastic work Larry thank you for sharing this great night with us!!! Still looking for that outro music tho, don’t give me the rick-roll either😂
This was a great video. I’m a car guy but this is not my thing, but I loved the video. I loved Fast & Furious and you kind of recaptured the feel of the movie here. Your Photography is on point! Great video man!
Larry Chen the man!!! That was the probably the most 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 episode of auto focus!! That awesome I’ve always wanted to experience that!! Great video and great work, Need for speed in real life!!!
11:49 dayum I remember that spot from the old video, I am 25 now and watched that first video when I was a sophomore in high school. I was raised on this shit lol my friends and I would watch that video every other fuckin day in school any chance we got to get on the school computers. Brings back some real memories

Chicago has the best Pizza. Lots of shooting too.
Larry, love the work you do!!!!. Can you revisit the 51 ford shoebox you shot a long while back!!!
Larry, glad you love our city, you're the fing man
Hi from Kazakhstan! Nice job Larry! Ryan killed hoonigan's old spot! RB all day!
Thanks for the sick content Larry. Chicago is my favorite city "weather permitting"
No joke, those overpass shots look like they could be the debut pics for Need For Speed Underground 3.
Give this guy more like so EA games notice this !
Broo frrr🤣💯
Lower Wacker is dank
Thats what i thought off as soon it came up
time stamp?
That blue 180sx is an absolute beaut! 😍
240*
@@MarbleMansionVayyaar you can forgive me for that one, unless you're being super eagle eyed, it's hard to spot the difference!
@@ryancdallas i think 240's just had DOHC. 180's being jdm and 240s being usdm is really the main difference
@@MarbleMansionVayyaar i think all s13s had dohc

Naw don’t protect those straight piped vqs and that fast and furious red focus lol
it's always mustangs and straight piped VQs lol
You sure it wasn't two guys in matching suits in an old Dodge?
I just started my channel where I go into the mountains with trucks and break em. Hoping to make some people smile.
Damnit...

Need more of these Larry.. God I'd love to do one of these again, they are fun late nights! :D .. Keep it up Chen!
That’s car guy goals cruising in your built whip with the homies what else can you ask for!!
None of my homies into cars😔
This video was insane, this is what car culture should be, all about having fun and having new experiences.
I’ve had a cop come up to me and before I can get a word out he said “let me guess you bought it like that” referring to my straight pipped exhaust. 🤦🏻♂️😂 he was chill.
Hell yeah , he was a fan
@Jeremy Dailey last year, it's a cool story bro
This was honestly one of my favorite videos Hoonigan has ever done
This is the best episode of AutoFocus to date hands down.
I can't wait till me and the crew get on this level
1000s of vids like this pls!!!! This is why ee love cars

Simba’s car will always have a special place in my heart. I love that thing lmao
Chicago is the best drift scene in us no doubt. Proceed, risky devil, gleam, and others. So many amazing cars and drivers
Again. Larry. Carrying the whole thing. Amazing.
The fact that no one has done a feature on Simba’s s13 is criminal. Literally top 5 most iconic s13s in the US
Hahahah. Larry’s mad man run at 18:45 has me dying!!!
One of the best HAF videos by far. That feeling of late night streets and parking lots is the best. Amazing photos as always too. But damn what a solid night.
makes me soo happy seeing cars like this on the road , soooo god damm dope , top work thanks for sharing
This channel is pumping out content for Hoonigan and I couldn't be happier for it. Larry, you are a killer as always.
@LarryChen having followed you for years and seeing the crazy cars you've shot throughout the years. I'm amazed by how stoked you still got in this video. It truly is good to see someone so passionate about what they do. Keep it going.
Cool to see Larry hang with his friends a cut loose. I think he actually swore at one point👏! Kudos Sir
This is rad. Rad idea. Rad cars. Rad footage. Rad locations. Rad vibe. Just so rad!
that dude riding a Tomosaki A3S is the boss. haven't seen those for a long time

Hands down best video on RUclips right now! Thank you Larry C. !!
This reminds me of the old JDM DVDs I would buy. Showing local spots. Behind the scene stuff. The culture. Love it.
RISKY DEVIL

First time i heard risky devil was on need for speed. Now its game over and addicted to drifting
Larry is an absolute artist. Amazing shots.
I don’t know how anyone could not like this video! Great work on the saga!
Solid video man. As a chicagoan myself. I have to say this definitely showed chicago in its true form.
This was an Amazing episode of Autofocus , the pure enjoyment of cruising streets in drift cars is so relatable , miss that feeling back in the days!

Hoonigan AutoFocus: Cityscapes
Subchannel with all the car scenes in the major metros.
The internet NEEDED unhinged Larry. Thank you for your service sir.
Larry this might be my favorite piece you've ever done!!! Just perfect!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Always love Ryan’s energy in hoonigans videos, nice rolling car show too
I'm not sure how many times I've seen these videos but here I am watching them again, and I'm sure I'll be back to refresh my memory of this greatness created by the kings of the car community 🔥😎👌
The vibes are jus through the roof on this one
Chicago and risky devil have been holding it down and coming out with the baddest content for years now. Respect
This was so cool to watch, I use Roosevelt Rd (the bridge at 13:25) and Lower Wacker (the under ground road at 18:00) to commute.
Best Hoonigan channel by far!
Thanks Larry, can feel your vibes and everyone else's in the video, truly captures the feeling of the night!
Definitely one of the top 3 vids on hoonigan by far!
Dude 35:18 is not enough. I could watch this for days, thanks man!
The last 10 minutes of this video hit me hard. We all live for our own moments... cars are life for me and is my getaway as well. Keep making these videos and sharing your stories
This is some amazing content. Ive seen some of these cars at shows before and they are beautiful. Cars are a great way to make memories.
seeing Larry run away after Ryan did the pull under the tunnel was the highlight of my week. 😂
This is one of your best features yet bro. Your passion for this industry is so encouraging and intoxicating lol. I always look forward to your content MGL all day
I comeback to watch this every other month goosebumps every time, feels like this is what every car enthusiast should strive for
One of my favorite episodes yet
I love this man! Just taking it back to the streets, cruisin', getting dope shots, this is one of the better videos I've seen in a long time. Thank you for getting this kind of content out.
Awesome for showing a positive side of Chi-town!
It's awesome you came to Chicago Larry!!!!!
Midwest represent 🤘🏼
Maybe its mid east
@@TheDramethis Illinois is midwest. This is fact.
@@HazeGreyAndUnderway but its still more east
Oh shit the Honda at 22:00 has a Darling in the FranXX livery! I thought that was Zero Two, and then I saw the title on the side with the iconic double X.
Yes!! Thank you, that’s my Type R itasha! My ig is @reblequah if you want to see more of it!
@@Reblequah fire 🔥
Man, I really dig that GTI with the oldschool OZ tires.
It's always the dumb that have to prove how smart they are... You know what he meant. Stay humble. Rims.
thats a rallye golf, not a GTI
@@mclovin8698 yeah, had a small lapsus, mb
@@ellieniemeyer8872 welp, the owner called it a GTI so...
Ellie Niemeyer it’s a Rallye replica, GTI underneath
Ayyyoo I remember Risky Devils when they were doing street drifting with the mk3 supra and the fc!
Cool cars, good dudes, and great shots. Nice work boys, got my jdm juices flowing here.
It so amazing to find out that your car is in to Larry Chen Videos!!! What an amazing night! 16:01
Larry keeps hittin hard with theses videos.
Found myself smiling watching this. Great content. Great job! Would love to see more like this.
Epic shoot. Living your best life. You can see it in your face that you appreciate every second of it. Thanks for the content Larry
This is one of the sickest videos! Thanks Larry for all the dope content! This is all motivation for us common folk 😂
This is a dope video, it represents how chill Chicago can actually be and this is the Vibes Every weekend here.
i drive alone because what friends i have are not around and not that into cars.
but i love when i can go for a drive with other car people. it's so chill and views are awesome to see.
The shot with the building that had the heart on it. Dope.
LOVE THAT BEAT WHEN SHOWING THE CARS
Glitter and stickers, nice paintjob/exterior!
i feel you got some great storeys to tell Larry i am listening
Wow it's been probably 13 years since I've been to Goose. Glad to see some of those spots are still frequented!
Chicago has the best drift cars hands down we may not live near a bay for car imports so those aren't our strongest points but we dont deal with emissions on older cars so we can do crazy ass swaps also we have winter down time perfect for engine rebuilds and body work that's why our cars look and sound so good we also live in the salt belt so our cars rott real fast but the community strips thoes unsaveable chassis to bare bones and the rest of the community benifits from those hard to find parts nothing gets wasted here also we have a ton of specialty tuner shops all around us so the scene is real out here.

The vibes in this video are great, I love this so much. Thanks for sharing this with us Larry!
