Daigo Saito On-Board @ Seattle Evergreen Speedway

[@Fumxe]

Daigo Saito's drifting style is different when he is overseas. When he competes in D1GP, Drift Muscle, he always drives aggressive, not letting his opponent catch up or get ahead. Especially when he's driving against Kawabata.

This guy and his car is a MONSTER!

[@D1Hosie]

Sick footage and a world class drifta Daigo Saito is a Legend JDM Motors For the win

[@ToraProds]

being a saito fan, and watching the livestream until the end (6am in my country), it really felt like you were playing a mental game with him. watching the livestream, the first start sure was too hard for you to keep up. the 2nd start was a little akward because it felt like you stopped before even accelerating. this is the first time I see a driver explain himself over the internet, this is rare, and courageous. congrats for your win, expect another battle against him at vegas... hehe ;)

[@Crazy650]

thank u for the upload of all the video from gopro thank u

[@Narothama]

all of those RE-START are Freakin' Hilarious!!..no offense but it really are HILARIOUS

[@8bit_bryan]

What you don't see is the giant grin on his face. Welcome to America Daigosan!.

[@JonnieFraz]

@Grunwald Racing, My apoligies it had been a couple of days since I saw your recap of Evergreen. I assuemd that you felt he jumpped the start. I was wrong you did not say say that he jumpped. I Can't wait for Vegas. I hope you have your upgrades installed, it is gonna be awesome!

[@MeowMr2]

Don't piss off Daigo Saito!! he will Kill you with SMOKE AND SPEED!

[@GrunewaldRacing]

I never said Daigo jumped the start. His 1200hp 2800 pound car can out accelerate my 561whp 3200 pound car any day of the week. Working on changing those numbers as I type this.

Semtex with a steering wheel ,holy shit.

[@GrunewaldRacing]

Thanks man. Only Seattle and Irwindale have my funky gearing since I cannot swing a quick change. Hopefully by Irwindale I will have 900-1000hp so I will be outa excuses. :-)

[@GrunewaldRacing]

My Camaro does 81mph in first gear. That's not Diagos fault but I did tell him with gushi translating as well as him with robbie translating at two separate occasions that I was slow to about 30-40mph. The point being both times he ran away from me on the way to the first turn, the first time being the worst. I have the only car that runs on 305's (which means I'm the heaviest car in the field). I know your already convinced that Daigo can do no wrong, but in this case he did... twice.

[@bennyfizzle]

JUST LOOK AT HIS LITTLE CHEEKS

[@JonnieFraz]

@Grunwald Racing Hey buddy If you watch the first battle you move first. I am not sure if you have retracted your statement as to Diago jumping the start, but for sure you roll first and then shut down.

[@GrunewaldRacing]

Really? Abused the start rule? If you have a chance you should try and sit in on a drivers meeting to see what the judges are asking of the drivers. 95% of drivers don't have an issue with pacing another car into the first turn regardless of HP difference.

14:25 dai is smiling so bag cause conrod cant keep peace

[@GangsKepalaTonyah33]

v8 cute

[@rotarydriftdreams]

@GrunewaldRacing thanx for explaining i appreciate it.lol come on man i never said daigo could do no wrong in jersey he dropped 4 tires u should had got the win made no sense.im just sayin i think its a little funny how til now u had a problem gettin off the line when ive seen other drivers take off from the line and create distance.just saying the second start looked pretty good but its all good.good luck the rest of the season

[@plo129]

lol telling him to slow down cuz conrod couldnt keep up.

[@NzoDK]

Sounds like a blender

[@rotarydriftdreams]

@GrunewaldRacing @GrunewaldRacing @GrunewaldRacing @GrunewaldRacing oh and one more thing comparing both lead runs agaimst d mac and you.the first one daigo did get a little jump off tue line so understandable.but the second one he even slowed up for u off the line he wasnt even in it yet.almost identical to the start against d mac u say i need to be in the drivers meeting but these sifferent camera angles tell the story in its self.its over u won so congrats im just saying im not convinced

[@rotarydriftdreams]

@GrunewaldRacing come on dude yea u did everybpdy knows it and u do also.ok lets take away the first one and focus on the second one.what was the reason for the second one u barely got off the line before u shut it down so please enlighten me.i do give u credit for running daigo down cause u got hard on the brakes on entry and he left you but as far as the 2nd false start not buying it dude
