Formula Drift ROUND 1! Does the Off Season Pay Off? A Three Car Team IS WILD!

[@JoabOlsen]

Seeing Dan work with RTR is freaking awesome. Stoked for the whole team. Gonna be a sick season

[@sirmonkey1985]

same, didn't realize he was working with them now. makes sense why he abruptly stopped posting video's on his channel. happy for him and hope it all works out.

[@roblilt7359]

I was wondering if James had something to do with it since he worked for Worthouse when they were here.

[@seanharrison6162]

Dan has worked for many drift teams so he's a great choice

[@benoitdeclercq9722]

i was like, this guy looks like Dan.. but it s actually Danger Dan . nice to see!

[@patonb]

@@benoitdeclercq9722 Same. I actually paused and was about to google when i this coment

[@rickvang7313]

Can we see more behind the scenes with Danger Dan. Let's go RTR team for 2023. Triple Threat Team.

[@jakehill9174]

Don't usually comment but please keep doing videos like this. Love seeing the crews banter and reactions and behind the scenes talks with the other drivers. Solid content

[@LoneWolf-479]

Your qualifying run was savage AF. Major props to the RTR crew, y'all are the unsung heroes.

[@Penguin11515]

I've always love watching any kind of racing but this team has me into FD more than any other motorsport right now. You all are doing a lot to promote the sport and it's working

[@johnbailey70]

Yoooo! Danger Dan with RTR crew. Nice to see some familiar faces added with him and James

[@3.2.1.adventure4]

Stoked to see danger dan on the team f yeah wishing Chelsea the best season.

[@TheInlandmob]

Would love to see Dan post videos on his channel all behind the scenes of working for a drift team

[@Robvdk69]

He's probably far to busy to film it

[@mjc8248]

Vaugn's bumper budget is definitely getting exceeded this season.

[@youtubecertifiedmechanic]

Stoked to see Dan working with a killa team of people

[@michaelhamilton7739]

Glad someone is calling Field out. Always the most exciting driver on the track Chelsea, keep doin what you're doin

[@Robvdk69]

Field is always the first person to bitch and moan

[@friskywaIrus]

it's good seeing dan and shelby with you guys

[@logodrumline14]

It's interesting hearing at the end about Matt lifting on transitions. Maybe these new decel lights will help catch that more often in the event that a chase driver ends up causing him to crash again this year..

[@chelseadenofa]

It’s not a decel, it’s just how he points the car.

[@fifthgear93]

@@chelseadenofa I think what Chelsea means is that Matt does his transitions off throttle, maybe because he can do transition quicker this way, or maybe because he doesn't feel comfortable transitioning at full throttle. What this means is that when the lead driver (Matt) lets the car coast in drift, while the chase driver is at full throttle behind him it's a recipie for dissaster.

[@Pheatan]

@@fifthgear93 nah everyone has to to come off throttle to transition, especially when they’re going full lock to full lock. What i think he means is that because the car’s pointing a different way theres a moment of weightlessness in the g meter causing it to show decel.

[@fifthgear93]

@@chelseadenofa Who is right then? Explain. 😄

[@XJR15ftw]

HELL YES DAN! Also well driven mate, great show

[@leekromm8036]

Absolutely awesome video. RTR is gonna be a force this year!!!! Great to see danger Dan with the RTR team!

You were killing it out there blessed to be able to attend yet another #FDLB event . No doubt no ppl more exciting event than last . New year new champion. #RTR #DeNofaYear

please bring back the round analysis video at least for this round. Thats easily my favorite series on your channel

[@C_Noriega]

Video work is spot on! Props to your videographer

[@IDv8I]

Simply love your attitude, bud. Go get um this season and let us know when you feel that the car is right, so we know it's just you then, lol. Love the team for sure, epic.

[@chelseadenofa]

Well it’s always me, but I’ll figure the car out at some point

[@IDv8I]

@@chelseadenofa Dude! Thanks for the reply. We have faith that you will figure it out. The cars look fast from here and can transition fast with great angle so ya it's up to you, but you got it.

[@foamdataservices]

We really appreciate the hard work getting quality content out whilst working hard driving etc, thank you for these! Denofa Pizza merch was on point!

[@haydenmidyette8918]

[@jra5624]

Long beach is such an unforgiving track, and you guys did great. Can't wait to see you guys ripping in Utah this year. You guys will definitely be the fastest out there. On to Atlanta!

[@mewsikjunkie]

Danger Dan working with RTR!?! Hell yea 🤘

[@v2577]

Denofa being Denofa ( all in or nothing !) . I believe that was the fastest entry of the weekend

[@cain8229]

Sick! 🔥 A round analysis video for this one would be dope. New RTR signature led are cool but it seems way less visible than before tho

[@aidenmoss1325]

I think I saw him say on ig maybe that those are just plastic place holders until the actual lights are done

[@cain8229]

world class team ! go for nothing less then the win guys! :)

[@brightonlund]

I loved seeing the boys work on the cars and have some banter. Those are good times!

[@afghanwildlife5260]

I like the communication between the team. Adam James an Chelsea

[@johnnys.9040]

18:19 that's what I said. Aasbo didn't do shit to get hit by Field, I'm guessing lifting or e-braking made Field slide into Aasbo, that was some BS, pissed me off.

[@chelseadenofa]

Drivers are always reacting, that’s how it be.

[@chasefroning]

God damn the new Cars look amazing; I think it's cool you went with a similar livery with the new mustang so you can get a good comparison from last year. I always wonder how you guys are going to step it up every year and it actually happens. I love what RTR is doing for the mustang name and ford as well it's all so cool. 🤙

[@ScoobaSteveS13]

Need an all RTR Podium at some point this year boys let's go!

[@KielYT-bq9ve]

Wow danger dan is in the team crazy..

[@rickrussell579]

Loved seeing Adams crew ripping on him for wrecking it lol Hope he finds his groove early and starts putting down some baller runs

[@TASTYTREATSPLS]

This video was a banger. Something changed that added a little 🌶🌶

[@johnventevogel7415]

Did anyone catch when the team was watching the run where Adam is in the lead with Chelsea chasing. You can see Vaughn mouth shit when Adam smacks the tires and then he pulls out his phone. He is probably texting the Ford parts department to send over some more bumpers lol!!

[@rileyking9402]

Chelsea watching you drift is like watching an artist at work and I’m positive you probably see this in every single comment section but being able to work for you guys would be my ultimate dream come true no matter what it was it could be the hardest job your team has and it would still be a dream come true

[@TexasDmax_2k]

Cleaning their portapottys would make you happy as well?? Lol

[@josephmatuszak3855]

When Adam's rearquarters exploded against the tires I was actually kinda worried it might "f" ya up Mr Denofa! But ya savaged right thru! Someone needs to add a boyscout patch for your suit for that as a goof!

[@brodieyule2386]

What is RTR's zip-tie budget? Midway through practice the bumpers are mangled

[@Watchmedome3017]

Danger Dan is back baby! 💯💪🏼🙏🏼🔥🔥🔥🔥

Chelsea you better go 111mph at Utah this season. Was there in person last season and thought that run was badass

[@heyletsplaythis]

@13:11 danger Dan is on your pit crew??

[@despizedicon]

88 is always a great watch. See you in St.Louis again. Who else does backies in Comp??? No one that's who. Eat Donatos not Dominos.

[@alexarkin227]

If Adam drove the way he does outside of formula d, at formula d he would actually be worth a damn.

[@chelseadenofa]

Yea, it’s just not the same in these cars. You could say the same for many others

[@patonb]

Adam seems to have trouble with the high hp cars. He can rip in the 5-600hp range, but get in the 2j car or the mustangs and he seems not to be able to get the control down. I was really hoping with Taylor having a pro-levl car, him and Adam would get more seat time and he'd get better.

[@frizzlefry1921]

12-1300 hp is no joke to be surgical with espically when him and Deane are coming from s(15?) chassis to mustangs. Talk about a night and day difference between cars.

[@BarbWaltersMusic]

wait a sec, Dan is working with RTR?

[@SteveoDrumsOfficial]

Is that danger dannnnn?!?!?!?

[@benoitdeclercq9722]

seems like it

Bad day in the office generally speaking… you learnt some stuff though so that’s always progress… more impressed at JD showing you all up

[@chelseadenofa]

He is a machine. I just ask too much because I enjoy finding the limit, these cars don’t like that, the support more patience and limiting your asks

[@undefined_garage]

This video was fire!!!! Adam’s energy is so off it’s sucks he should be happy any outcome in good moods he’s like down because he’s not the best out of all of you but that’s OK!!! He’ll come around great driving Chelsea you did some baller shit lol

Chelsea: "you are in probably the fastest car ever" James: " I don't think so, I doesn't feel too fast" Chelsea: "dude, I think the same thing" 😆

[@DriftJesus]

it can be fast, but not feel fast. Turbo cars often - feel - faster than N/A

[@FaworDrifts]

Wout, please 🙂 and right after that he is showing the clip how slow he was moving thru the course. I dont mean anything wrong. It just shows that James sticks right with his experiance

[@chelseadenofa]

This was a joke in reference to us being the fastest cars out there but not feeling that way.

[@Seeerton]

chelsea be talkin that shit rightfully so.

I’m glad you guys got Dan he’s rad

[@zaneblackmon7683]

Fuck yeah ❤

[@Andrew73047]

Does years of drift experience makes a driver much more easier to adjust to a new chassis in drifting? Why I asked because James figured out how to manage the car in certain scenarios in one event. So do the years of drift experience makes a difference?Your opinion would be appreciated 👍

[@chelseadenofa]

Sometimes learning a car can put you at an advantage, you drive to not expect things. I think james and I both started drifting around the same time, 20 years ago or something like that

[@R19Robbin]

🔥🔥

[@daylatedrift]

Are the cars that inconsistent? With 20+ laps on a track that's always the same layout.. seems like everyone would be dialed 🤷‍♀️

[@chelseadenofa]

You ever see me drive anything else?…

[@daylatedrift]

Not personally no.. through a lense e36/46 fox s5/650, went to fd atl and I won't be going to another event unless I'm competing in it. Obviously I'm not in the cars feeling what's going on but I can't wrap my head around folks not being able to link a course consistently, especially under 50mph. I've clutch kicked a zr1 n powerslid up to 90mph, granted no transition no angle mod but now with cheap mini mantis on a gs I can consistently lay rubber over rubber with transitions over 50mph. I plan on doing an event this season 🤙 You got championship talent and are wild enough to go ham(very entertaining 🙏) but surely you notice your entry speed and transitions aren't consistent.. your transitions seem way more consistent in the e46 🤷‍♀️ just from a free range slave on the outside looking in.

[@the.ghost.behind.u]

Sounds like Foresberg pissin off Chelsea again with them choke ups on transition that always gets him the win by default
