Building Cleetus New Driftvette! Donnie The C5 Goes Full Drift Spec!

[@masondatkinson]

If Cleet and James both get drift cars, when does Taylor get a drag car?

[@jamesdiaz2748]

That's what his RCSB truck is for

[@jordanosborn1814]

Or a side by side

[@ryan7974]

he said he's going to put twin turbos on that green truck

[@twinstealth]

Exactly! Time for Taylor to build a drag car with Cleetus!

[@masondatkinson]

He could do rocky mountain race week in the green truck!

[@jprice1975]

I was just gonna comment this, good shit haha

[@matthewpostlewait1857]

Good lord.. Weve been waiting on this

[@PeeBeeGilmore]

Good shirt idea for a collaboration of shop merch for Taylor and cleetus

[@dennisg.2411]

Remember. Its your channel but every time I Hear SOMEONE ELSE say something i HEAR it. We enjoy hearing you bs ing with people. If someone wants to try to explain something or try to do something. By all means. Let them. Lol. Its content. And who knows. They might mess up and create content Haha. Keep it coming brother!

[@CreehouFTR]

That’s fucking funny omg

[@trex4586]

It has finally come full circle, I remember when you went to Cleetus's shop to dingleberry hone the 5.3L LS for your miata rebuild. Now he has come to you for a drift boi upgrade, the world is healing

[@kxlucifer]

Gotta work both ways.cant be one way now

[@Racingboom]

Dude I swear. Every time cleeter makes/participates in a video with another KZbinr, regardless of the topic of the video/channel it’s always amazing. He’s such an aura of just... content I guess. It’s pretty magical.

[@neong]

I think it's that you know Cleet has the bigger platform (usually). But he never acts like the big YTr coming to do the smaller channel a favor. No DBag vibes.

[@WideLoad405]

You guys remember when Cleet had DankWheelie do circle wheelies around the C7?

[@twinstealth]

1 min in and this is just so AWESOME! Cleetus and Taylor building a drift car is like a dream come true!

[@chipper203]

same, love this collaboration

[@SeattleMK2GLI]

Uuuuuntil Cleeter bails! I was hoping to see Taylor giving Cleeter a Tig Tune-up!!

[@ohfacexo]

I said out loud "well, I wasnt expecting this....ok then."

[@DeliriumTremensTWU]

@@SeattleMK2GLI Still the most actual work he has done on a car in a long time.

[@ttali211]

“Stuff gets done so much faster when you have a second person” Ben: what about me :(

[@klm2fm4]

Ben is usually working on his own business

[@jacobrice9596]

I don’t believe Ben helps Taylor because he’s working on his own car or other stuff.

[@MikeKraemer87]

Ben helps out for sure, but he has a business. I believe he buys Miatas and parts them out or something like that.

[@neong]

@@MikeKraemer87 I've often wondered what Ben does to afford with house with a full garage. Need to get Ben on "a beer with" or vinwikki, I want some back story into Taylor's unsung hero friend.

[@bawjawmcgraw2232]

Hes got a miata breaking/part out business called 'bens used miata parts'...

[@chrismartin6544]

Let’s go my 2 favorite KZbinrs !!!!!

[@NismospoolinOfficial]

Man, this brings me back to 2010-2011 where we used to piece together and build all this stuff ourselves. Most of these drift car parts were developed in house by angle crazed twenty year olds with no money. 🤣 Its crazy how far it’s come. These kits look like such a time saver and much less if a headache to fix or maintain. Absolutely awesome. 😎

[@SirVic42]

How did Sandy like having a giraffe around the shop?

[@reecewoodruff3255]

She made an appearance in Cleetus vid and seemed to like him

[@dariok9118]

😂😂

[@bryanglenn123]

You Are A Stud! Helping Cleetus do this for a Competition, you are involved in? Awesome! Excellent Sportsmanship!

[@bgbdcam]

8:34 That stretched brake line thoe....

[@AverageJoeBuilds]

The amount of stoked that I am because YOU'RE building the car for Garrett is so much I cannot even think properly. He will be so happy and able to learn probably faster than most with this setup

[@mk3249]

Taylor ray doing gods work

[@pixel_overkill]

That moment you have two car youtubers you really enjoy start working together. Can't not love this enough.

[@bad77dragtruck]

Cleetus, and Sandy yelling in the background on the intro. Perfect

[@FrankTx]

All shop vids require sandy’s commentary

[@sketchyfabco]

Dude, you know you're doing it right when cleet is in your shop!

[@Quints86]

1:41 Sandy chilling out with Taylor & Cleet !!

[@jefferson9428]

I’ve been waiting for cleetus to build a real drift car for so long and it’s even more amazing that he’s having you help him with the build. So dope.

[@danielward8649]

Man, I've never been so stoked to see my 2 favs working on ya Boi Donnie . Keep the collab's coming pleeeeease!

[@reecewoodruff3255]

When he rodknocks that LS due to no oiling upgrades “hey Texas speed, ima need a dry sump 427”

[@zacgruett7951]

previous owner did that and more.....

[@matthewf1979]

This is awesome! I think Taylor is the best Drifter/KZbinr on earth. The dude does his own wrenching with minimal sponsorship. Massive respect ✊!

[@LS48IRL]

I have a wilwood handbrake calliper setup identical to this. Can be very hard to bleed properly. Shouldn't have to pump it like that however. Should lock perfectly with one pull. Should be solid. I use 0.625 master cylinder with a shorter leaver. I know 0.7 works well too. When I bleed mine I remove one bolt from the calliper to the bracket, rotate calliper so its as vertical as possible and then bleed (so nipple is at the top). Still enough contact with disk when you do that. Also jack the rear of the car as high (keep front of car on ground) as you can to ensure bleed nipple is highest point of the system. Works very very well. Locks easily in every scenario.

[@TurtlDrip]

So cool you are working with Cleet on this! Immediate thumbs up

[@nicolasscheffers-roy5323]

Not even kidding Taylor is probably one of the coolest dudes ive ever seen

[@mikemeyer1993]

When he said “thanks for watching, thanks for subscribing.” You could see Cleeter’s face in the background, he wanted to say “Do It For Dale.”

[@SG-eo6pq]

Love how you and cleet divided up the content in your videos. One of the best collabs

[@Wade6663]

Awesome you took over the build. Cleetus so lucky to have a friend like you to set him up perfect. This gonna be rad.

[@xCAUT10Nx]

Ol cleeter & Taylor Ray ! What a combo. I could honestly watch collaborations like this everyday.

[@nowinczak]

My two favorite channels and you now work together. That is Awesome! Love America!!!

[@ShiftersAndLifters]

The Red, White, and Blue theme always looking sick!

[@petercole2339]

Hell..Yea...Brother...Cleetus is in the house!!

[@scottwaters4889]

Its funny, with the Giraffe there, you had to get the lift head level.

[@BranzFlakes]

Yessss FDF 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦👍👍👍 freedom machine with maple syrup touches!

[@Nealio6s]

He also "killed it" when he drove the 350Z...

[@donnienall626]

whomp whomp:D

[@wbuilt4582]

💀

[@neong]

I love the community that these car channels have. The more cross over the better.

[@ruebenskedgwell9627]

Those wheels are on point! Good work guys love it.

[@bahndrvr]

So happy your doing this with Cleetus - Hoping it finally gets you the full on Sponsor you deserve and have Earned!!!!!!

[@calvinlee449]

This was awesome! Two of my favourite & fun channels collab'ing! and turning a cleetvette into a drift-vette! Just like when I first started watching Taylor's channel! Awesome!

[@dsa420meh7]

I was so waiting for that vid to drop! I'm so excited for cleetus to get into drifting for real!

[@samhoyt49]

Love you guys working together literally and just video colab wise, thanks for the content as always.

[@paulpence8895]

Cant wait to see you guys at the FF!!!

[@kevinlauterbach8356]

Been watching Taylor since the start and its crazy how far your skills as a car builder have come.

[@abnertnieves7698]

2 of my 3 most favorite car youtubers in 1 vid building a drift car. Yesss!!!! Nice work guys!!!

[@RocksConcreteMinerals]

Taylor.....made my night.

[@alaricluethi2734]

I really have no idea how you only have 400k subs...literally blows my mind!

[@ameirabbden5290]

And why cleet has that much just by keeping his foot flat to the floors 🤣🤣

[@BOOT]

@@ameirabbden5290 Well one use to work for 1320 media

[@MacheteMB1775]

i like that hand break install a lot

[@brianenglehutt1241]

HELL YEAH! We’ve been waiting for this :D

[@Garagetopics]

She looks killer!! Great job Taylor cant wait to see her shred.

[@chrissyaerts9821]

Watching this makes me miss the vette even more :(

[@andrew.4g637]

I know right 😭😭😭

[@54raceman]

Guarantee it makes him miss it as well

[@Gahet]

This has to be one of my favorite collaborations on KZbin! Hell yeah Taylor!

[@IDlikeanEvo]

Best friggin collab ever we want more !! Keep it up with the amazing content you're killing it my man 🔥

[@usmchardcore0621]

So cool to see you driftin out another corvette. The corvette videos are what drew me in, man.

[@colinpotter9479]

Cleetus literally takes apart a car every other day so you know your boy can crank a wrench lol.

[@philipk85]

Stoked to see that bad boy in action Saturday

[@jordanporter2308]

Josiah!!!!!!!!!!

[@nickcosta3004]

I lost it at "Pre-Ls swapped" freaking fantastic.

[@pwerd]

I miss the old drift vette! Love the LS Miata but the vette was special

[@MrSimulatedsanity]

Awesome Taylor. Big love to Cleet for farming out this to someone who can give you a good start.

[@normnielsen]

You hooked ole Cleeter up! I love the wheels! Now it's a classy ride that rips!! :)

[@toby3299]

This what I really like to see a big time KZbinr who collaborates with all types of other KZbinrs regardless of how know that they are some people get big in the game and forget where they came from and become boujee you know

[@Taylordrifts]

Cleetus is the king of helping out the little guys. Grade A+X10 dude. He’s awesome.

[@rickking8890]

Two of the best KZbin's

[@kevinjones6091]

Another kick ass colab. Excited to see where this build goes. Hopefully some drift events at the freedom factory! Keep up the great builds

[@christopherfranks7627]

Get Ben in on this! Hell H’Yea!!!

[@rodneyclements6190]

The wheels look mint on it!! Great job all around Taylor! Can't wait to see you guys drift together!!

[@kurtd8396]

Great episode. Loved seeing Sandy loved Cleets channel. Good stuff.

[@joeydrifts]

Thank you, Taylor. I’m 16 and guiding a 240 and now I fell in love with C5s

[@JeffSlover]

Hopefully Cleetus blows you up in his video, and this starts really blowing your channel up. I don't think that you should change a thing, your channel is awesome as it is, but a few hundred thousand more subscribers could be great for you! PS Cleetus has probably pulled the suspension off of C5 more then anyone with all of the work done on Leeroy.

[@Comiefornia]

Two of the best car KZbinrs teaming up! It’s a beautiful thing.

[@thebigmeachh]

These are the best crossovers on KZbin

[@crazymike401]

So amped to see you doing this project. Your voice is just excited this video. Good to see you wrenching

[@aleksdimitrov298]

You're the man for putting in the work and posting these videos!

[@4399daniel]

To be honest man the wheels actually look really good. I like it. Gives it a bit of class. I know RX7 guys will hate me for saying this but it gives it FD vibes.

[@shortstroke8712]

All right! Gettin Cleetis all hooked up to shrewd in Donnie! He’ll do good!

[@jimiemick]

Also, A neat little trick when pulling off steering wheels, Put you knees up pushing them towards you, Have the centre nutt still on but backed off abit, and then hit the nutt with a hammer (dead blow works best) and they usually pop nice and easilly :)

[@MrNicoe36cabrio]

Wow. That's an angle! And I don't get the wheel problem guys. I love them! And that 3 color setup is also sick! Dutch regards, Nico

[@petekleinschmidt4251]

Looks awesome can’t wait to see ya rippin it together!

[@gtfkt]

Nice to see Cleet at your shop.

[@Chris_napp]

Ive driven 2 c5 corvettes and one c6 and damn they are so good. 😍

[@cooldood648]

thank you Taylor for hooking up our boy Cleetus!

[@wilsonautomotive]

Awesome to see the suspension kit you helped design again.

[@addicted4life575]

Taylor is such an awesome dude! Super bubbly!

[@sawyerfaust4090]

Anyone else miss Taylors old C5 drift car??? I can tell he puts his passion into Cleetus's car as if it was his.

[@PeeBeeGilmore]

Gotta love a fast working knowledgeable mechanic hell yeah brother cleeter

[@jeffreycummings4757]

Steering Wheel Removal tip, Put the nut back on have your Buddy sit in the Drivers seat pulling on on the steering wheel and smack the nut with a hammer.

[@dylansherwood6081]

Someone said Taylor looks like Seth Rogen and I can’t unsee it

[@shortstroke8712]

Wow you’re right! Now I can’t unsee it either! Arrgggg!

[@MMORPG87]

mad props to Cleet. shows up NO camera in hand to his buddies place.

[@brandonMrLove]

Ji actually miss that green vette you had. You sshould get another one and make a “do it for drift” team with james and cleetus lol

[@huckhuckhuck]

Speaking of your old drift vette... Didn't you do a give-a-way with it? Do you know if the new owner drifts it or not? Would be kinda cool to buy that back and slay the Freedom Factory alongside Cleetus.

[@smoothkid765]

Best sports car ever made. 10-15 years it will be really hard to find nice road cars bc they're so easy to work on and so powerful that everyone is hacking them up for various types of track cars. From drifting to drag, the C5 absolutely does it all.

[@santorotv9273]

hell yeah, now you need another vett too, Taylor. I miss the green one

[@SFbayArea94121]

Man, that Vette looks sweet 😍. Killer job Taylor

[@ddavis9644]

Hell yeah brother!!! Been waiting for this one

[@AkinaGhost]

Agree with you on the interior. I get the function over form and budget side of things but that doesn't mean it needs to look like absolute rubbish!

[@randomgamer2267]

This is going to be a sick series.. drift dad meets cleetus

[@Gunner6391]

That would be EPIC seeing Donnie drift with Unicorn🤯😎🇺🇸🦅💪

[@andrew.4g637]

Nice to see a vette on the channel again ☺️

[@WhipsawWillys]

@taylorray 15:50 don't worry about brushing over the technical details, us avid watchers nerd out on this stuff and would gladly spend an hour talking about alignments haha

[@HenryDarr]

As usual, Taylor Ray killing the game 🤙🏾🤙🏾

[@mjdeluxe]

you seem like the coolest dude ever

[@torang_]

Happy this channel is growing again, hit a plateau for a while for some reason
