Hoonigan Goes to Final Bout: America's Greatest Grassroots Drift Event?

Final Bout is arguably the best grassroots drift event that the U.S. has to offer. Completely based around fun, style, and everything that we love about the late 90s/early 2000s golden era of drifting. People haul from all over the country (and beyond) to come flex their project that they've been working on their entire lives, at time. Follow along as Hert and Rob prep the Mazda RX-7 Twerkstallion and the finger flicker hand-controlled 240sx to get to this rad event.

Who else thinks hert needs a set of taillights like tomoya’s fc?🤔

[@HertLife]

I gotta figure out my own steeze. His tails are fire.

Every time I see Japanese car guys they all seem like this. Genuinely cool dudes.

[@iamfogo]

I’m glad there’s still events like this. Formula D is like watching the paint dry.

[@GordonGreenCincinnati]

The Real Fogo right! FD is way over regulated, everyone has supercharged LS3 and wife angle kits. It’s been the same unenthusiastic announcers and biased judges. It’s just boring, take me back to 2005 era

[@pyroji2593]

Good point. I also get a very late 80s early 90s vibe from the transitions. Like a weird hype school science movie lol. I love it.

I have so much respect for Rob, he doesn't let anything hold him back. No excuses, he wants something done, he does it.

This is 100% fact, Rob doesn't stop at anything! We've seen this man do things most people can't. The dude is a legend.

[@justdave100]

@Dave Micolichek in one way I agree, 15 years experience in construction myself but have screwed up my hands a number of times that could have been avoided by just wearing my gloves. Tough working hand vrs grinder has only one winner. You are not less of a man by wearing them and a bust up hand is expensive and a massive pain in the backside. N00bs watch this channel, protect your hands guys, no shame in it.
