What do you want to see first, vehicle walk-arounds or racing? We get a ton of comments from people who skip to the racing but let us know what you think is better.

[@kasonrogers9919]

Walk arounds first for sure

[@antoniorogar81]

Yes!

[@MrKeenanCooks]

Walk arounds first. No discussion.

[@user-mk5er1ks1w]

[@HellzJester1]

Definitely the walk arounds first, this was strange as fuck

[@enigmaficate]

Guys. Don't fix what ain't broken. Introductions first. THEN predictions. then race. Don't fudge the formula

[@K_Swap_The_World_69]

That's what I said it's sad... I told them it "was trash, why fix something that's not broken "🤷🏽

[@Cuhh346]

They also got rid of group interviews which were more exciting

[@alexandercurtis4427]

To be fair, I did see people on several videos bitching and whining about the pre race stuff, saying there was too much talking and not enough racing

[@enigmaficate]

well the group aint THE group anymore :(@@Cuhh346

dont adjust for a few when the majority dont see that way. then again, we could use that notion for this entire nation lol@@alexandercurtis4427

[@alanmendieta992]

Personally I like the introduction of the cars before the race. I feel so inclined to want to click off after the race

[@PowerfulRoman]

They are messing up their original formula, killing off their viewers' time watched. 😂

[@alanmendieta992]

@@PowerfulRoman I see them experimenting with new avenues and new ways to keep us engaged. Although this wasn’t a good move in my opinion I believe they’ll listen to the majority and do the right choices tbh

[@ondrejvavre37]

Zac and Gary are veterans and Micah has been around for so long that I think we could call him an OG now. Georgiah first appeared on a Build Breakdown-kind of video with a lowrider, so she joined the same way a lot of the other guys did. Only dude I don't know here is Kody, but there's nothing wrong with a new chill face.

Yea they all left....

[@Jaybrown223]

You must've been gone for a few years😂 these guys have been around for years now. Especially Zac

[@trophiemantle]

I prefer the walk arounds first. I like to learn a bit more about the cars and then make my guesses based on the driver and the mods.

[@jcedeno117]

Yeah, I'd much rather at least show the lineup with the horsepower stats before the predictions I can make predictions at the same time. And you can fast forward through the breakdown if you don't like it😊

[@nathan584]

my guess is because most people skip pass all the information straight to the racing to improve viewer retention

[@trophiemantle]

Ya , now I'm doing the opposite though. I watched the race and now I'm not really interested in the breakdowns, I used to always watch the whole thing.@@nathan584

[@natesmith8020]

Exactly. Seriously who tf was asking for this. The walkarounds/interviews builds drama and gets you invested in the race, the people, the cars, and the predictions. This was a bad call.

[@ogmudbone2334]

Yeah wtf was that stupid shit lol

[@m_O_5]

No no no no. Walk around first. Like the old days. The group banter was ace.

[@throttleblip1]

Since they got sold a few years ago they have no clue head from foot

[@Unicornpirate]

They got rid of the group banter in the intro talking about the cars like over a year ago. If you go back to their older videos of this vs that, you can see 3-4 of the guys talking to the owner about the mods done to it before the race and have great banter. After that they changed it to have one guy with the owner and mostly have the owner talk about the car. Now they are putting the info about the cars after the race. It wouldn't surprise me if Micah, Gary and Zac leave as well. Then it will be no one and this channel will become the next Fitment Industries.
