Drift Masters like you’ve NEVER seen it before…

Last weekend we went to DMEC Drift Masters in Riga and it was an incredibly competitive event both on and off track. The Drift Games team go behind the scenes to see what the sport is like behind the curtain? James Deane, Piotr Weicek and Conor Shanahan all feature in this episode...

Id love more shots and behind the scenes from other drivers aswell! The Irish teams are well known already but it would be awesome to see for example Heinonen, Rintanen, Randalu etc showcased!

[@onewheel.twowheels]

First time I'd travelled out of the UK to watch a drifting event and oh boy Riga didn't disappoint, absolutely loved every minute of it. amazing venue, amazing city and amazing people. thank you Riga..... see you next year for sure. Wasn't expecting to see anything I hadn't already seen but this was fascinating. great video Driftgames, keep up the great work.

[@dankelly2403]

Congrats on 200k subs!!!!!! You guys should be at 500k by now. AMAZING content and the video production blows me away every time. LZ World Tour. Blew me away! Keep at it lads!!!!

[@Vgk36]

Dave Egan do you realize you have the most unique job in drifting . All over the world in every corner of the drift world and the top announcer to have ever announced drifting . Thank you and the WHOLE TEAM for all your hard work ! 12:45

[@zigmundo]

Ian and Dave are like the voice of drifting for me, Eddie was great at the first LZ event, good to see him back in the tower

[@ajcinstalls]

Dave and Eddie are the OG's AND STILL p4p best commentary team

[@johnnysheridan]

Yep Dave and Eddie for me, massive respect to Ian

[@p3sel]

What an amazing venue this was. Drifting, food, beer, and the Finnish fans completely going bonkers, haha. :D Had such a blast on Saturday watching open practice and qualifying up close and in person. The rain during the Top 16 battles absolutely sucked though, lol. I did not expect the weather to clear up anytime soon and watched Top 32 from the airport.

[@johnrowell942]

Big thank you the ur team and it was amazing to watch live steaming. Well done to all the drivers and teams. Pulling off amazing skills in the wet. Roll on to the next rounds

[@WarrenMeinking]

I must agree with the title of this video. Also Dave and the everyone involved have yet again put together an absolute stellar show. It feels like you can feel through the screen with how much passion they do their commentating and camera work.

[@SWATA27]

200K!!!! Well deserved Now to 300k and more, best channel on YT

[@basberend]

have to say, i like the tracks and extreme driving in Europe more then the tracks and driving in the US. #anothergreatvideofromDRIFTGAMES

[@honoh9661]

i love this kinda vids so nice to see u guys looking cars and telling abaut them much love from finland

[@MarchuxProductions]

NikNak needed more power, his lead was amazing, but the E36 lacked juice and couldn't keep up even in a straight line. good drive from both, tho!

[@charlesmao1418]

Those Canopies in the pits is insane! We need that here in the US

[@dearlove88]

The merc engine was an m104, it’s Mercedes 2J, was in ‘almost’ every merc in the 90’s

Always loved those trans ams! The rear lights are awesome

[@senuke97]

Lauri Heinonen ❤❤❤

[@Stevie4KGaming]

Great video guys, Drift masters is hands down the best championship in the world

[@vibedesession]

[@somedudesdad3905]

Great content. Great edit. Good pacing. Fantastic drift cuts. Fun behind the scenes . Tons of emotion . Y'all r really coming into ur own now . Keep it up, u have a good formula . The views will follow.

[@jetsetdnb]

Well put

[@cobratuner]

Didnt even see the event stream anywhere so this is nice at least.

[@KiMi1990]

Loori Hainonah!

[@notyou2935]

So this video totally negates the suggestion you made about the LZ World Tour event. Makes that look like a jr event. It makes FD look bad. To be fair, never really thought FD was all that great anyway. In fact it makes almost all American drifting and drifters I've seen look like toddlers. Great job!!!

[@IDv8I]

Drifting, just up a notch, thanks for sharing boys! The speed is crazy.

[@steveoe36]

Another great behind the scenes video.

[@Tyler_J_Cook]

Its amazing that I've been watching you guys since 50k subs. The growth in the amount of time is absolutely insane. This is the best drifting content on KZbin by far. Please keep it up, I love this shit!

[@driftgames_life]

Thank you so much!

[@mrfinch6664]

Another great round of DMEC 🔥🔥 i must agree this year is special everybody is hungry for the title and it shows. Big thanks to the drift masters crew 💪

[@sevukas]

It's such a jealous to yuo guys😍

[@kithtings1041]

I'm sure loads have said it already, and we all love Ian on commentary, but can I just say Eddie killed it on the mic in Riga 👏👏 It was like he never left, great job!

[@Peteblz1]

I cant imagine climbing over a fence with a car going 100mph sideways next to you. Absolutely mad footage. Excellent work. ❤

[@gillllick]

As an Irish expat living in Australia, getting to attend this event was INSANE. Driftmasters and Drift Games - Well done sirs 😍 I'll be making the trip to a new round next year again.

[@heffe17]

[@AndisSubaruPower]

It's Riga baby🔥 well done guys!!!

[@antoinettedoyle3185]

Hi Dave I've a favour to ask. Can you put up on your site Nightride the polish lads have entered Kevin into a Hot wheels competition. It would if we the Irish could support them and vote for Kevin. Red van with the motorcycle inside. ❤❤❤

[@skylineXpert]

I remember watching 20 year old videos with katsuhiro ueo drifting a 95bhp ae85 on sekia hills without using the handbrake. When comparing D1SL to D1GP you can see the difference. It was big back then but not so much now... Edit: swapping your engine in the ae85 for an engine from the ae86 wasnt allowed. It goes like this: Restriction of engine swaps from other model into other model, as S15 Silvia Spec-S to Spec-R specification (SR20DE→SR20DET) may be permitted but a RB26DETT into an HR32 Skyline GTS-t is not unless the model is a BNR32, nor even is converting an AE85 to AE86 is permitted. Engines from other manufacturer's car (e.g. Darren McNamara's 13B-REW powered AE86) are not permitted as well. A bolt on turbocharger or supercharger is permitted, the engine in the car can be determined by the VIN plate

[@AntoBarnett]

Boys, only 1k away from 200k subscribers, you deserve all the success and growth, the content is amazing. Can't wait to see ya in Dublin one day

[@jamesvaughan285]

In Case ye don't hear it enough what you guys have achieved is truly inspirational

[@jose_silva155]

Love to see Diogo Correia 🙌🏻🇵🇹🇵🇹

[@meticulous_rc]

18:45 very impressive. Love this content brothers!!!

[@mikeymechanic]

I like Ian but was good to hear Eddie back!! Job suits him down to the ground hopefully he'll be back into commentary more often you two are a better duo

[@englundasjohannes]

@16:10 Thats me wondering how they could fit 8 cylinders more than me in a smaller Mercedes than mine😂 Great seeing what you guys are doing behind the scenes on these events!

[@samtaksar7439]

I love when Dave dropped the “SPOOICY”

[@jeancharlesrabaux5658]

Je c est je parle beaucoup mais avec le drift vous aller comprendre comment faire de bonnes voitures déjà qu elle super les votre elle vont devenir hyper cars avec le drift beaucoup de choses dans les courses serve à construire une voitures de courses parfaite 🤞

Well done Jack and your proud Mammy ❤

[@Mcevoy91]

What an inspirational event. Jaysus I'd love to be more involved in this sport 🙌🇮🇪

[@johnnysheridan]

When I tuned in last weekend I was like "HANG ON A SEC!..EDDDDIEEEE!!!"

[@hi_tech_reptiles]

I would kill to get an IS300 Sportcross then manual swap it. Such a cool car, obviously with the 2J which helps but even the IS200 or something which has a manual stock (tho the trans wouldnt take a ton of power.) Just dig Lexus and that look inside and out. Also killer event, thanks for sharing!

[@BOOT]

5:20 Innovators West crank Damper, always wanted to try one of them.

I think Conor might be more naturally gifted than Jack, but when Jack is on it he could be the best in the world! Great to see Eddie back in the tower, hope he stays, Dave and Eddie are a much better combo in my opinion!

[@simonrushen2484]

I can't believe you have g2a as a sponsor there dodge as hell I wouldn't want them as a sponsor

[@TheXshot]

Driftmasters has G2A as a sponsor, not Drift Games. Driftmasters has lots of Polish sponsors like Budmat, G2A and others. G2A by itself isn't dodgy. It's the way some keus are obtained. But hey, you could say the same of Stake (crypto casino) sponsoring Alfa Romeo in F1.
