Humbling Moments: Failing at LZ World Tour Ireland...

Sadly I just couldn't get a grip with the car nor the track. But over all I had a good time and very happy to be apart of this event! We will do better next time!!! Thank you to ‪@AdamLZ‬ and ‪@driftgames_life‬ for putting on this amazing event for all of us to enjoy!

I think Chris needs a two week long trip to Japan so he can get some tandem practice in ebisu.

[@ericturnbull9780]

i think that would be great for him. . he should go home. sell like 5 of the , "junk" cars and just head to Ebisu. I was able to drift, "OKAY". on the streets and industrial parks. but it would take me forever to settle in to a track. After my first trip to Ebisu in 2007 or 2008 (driving almost a bone stock car that i had to clutch kick all around the tracks) I was probably 10 times better when I got home from that firs trip. Especially going as fast as I could in tandem. Now over about a decde and a half, maybe a lil longer, I have been to Japan almost 10 times and now that I am alot older, lol, when I head to Japan it is usually 1 of 3 times i drift each year. . . To me; a week or ten days at Ebisu is like 6 months of drifting a skid pad in the states. And it doesn't get old Great Advice, The O.S. Peace, Eturn

[@toddbrown4185]

I mean he is a decent driver, this was just a poor showing for him. He could definitely use an ebisu trip though (and sell a few cars like the white e30…)

[@LeninVera]

Grant school at ebisu is a good idea

[@jasonsparshott7208]

Why ? Is the asphalt different? The cars in stock trim built to drift better ??? No it’s in your head it swollen… you don’t need to take a trip to one location in Japan to learn how to drift and gain confidence !! Why ? How ? What about it makes anyone more talented then drifting say the Dragon here in the states ? These comments make zero actual sense aside from the fact that your head is swollen and ego is inflated because you did something 90% of the others haven’t … No offense at all and I’m positive that knowledge and ability was gained but no more then could be gained elsewhere. If I’m wrong then fine give me a valid reasonable explanation as to why and how ??? Seriously not being a dick or a know it all but I am questioning how and why aside from the power of thought…

Quitting drinking was the best thing to ever happen to me. Granted I quit when I was 18, but I had a rough younger life & had been drinking for years before that. It can ruin your mind. Now I’m self employed & only smoke a little ganja to keep my head on straight, no regrets other than picking up the bottle originally

You most definitely didn’t fail because you learned and overcame the difficulties and never gave up! Your personal cars are setup so much differently then what a lot of people seem to run so driving other peoples cars will be weird af unless they have their car perfectly dialed already like coach cal

[@quinndez06]

i do agree but you still need to drink and have fun with your bud,diesI @@pinecone1811

[@bigdadgigachad3042]

Lots of people turn to booze to be social... but if you're flying across the pond for an event, probably best to skip on the booze. I know it takes the edge off, helps people come out of their shell, it also can go from fun to blackout, make you do things, say things, yeah I think Chris should try and stay away from booze,

[@richdiscoveries]

I wouldn't call that a fail. Just the fact that you made it there is a win. Keep doing you and brother, getting better everyday

[@ericturnbull9780]

YEP, YEP. . . I totally agree. . you are fine Chris. dont worry. And you for sure will be there next time. Adam thinks of you as a really great friend ! peace, eturn

Chris for someone who really suffers from anxiety this was motivation for me to see you do this despite your body trying to tell you not too. Proud of you man. You did it anyway win or no win you over came your anxiety and did it anyway. ❤

Glad to see you there. The driving can take time, but it's fun just to see a bunch of yt friends hang out and have some friendly competition.

[@helldabs]

CHRIS WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH! this type of video is honestly really cool, the way ur talking to the camera, showing clips then talking to the camera more is enjoyable

[@vibezz910]

the way Adam looked at that dude when he chugged it off the tray lmao!!

[@twodogsyyc6729]

Much respect bro. Having the will to drag your ass back out there after a shit day takes balls. Give yourself credit you didn't have seat time even close to Grant or Jimmy and you still hung it out there. Peace 🇨🇦

[@maximus1720]

Ive been super nervous about a track event coming up for me and honestly was considering backing out. After watching this im all in and I just need to get the experience and commitment to getting on track. Thank you chris.

[@That1E_K1129]

Dude, I like it when you narrate your runs and let us know what you're doing in every moment of your run. Let us know why you're doing what you're doing. I really truly enjoy it you should do it more often.. Edit in the 7 years that I have been watching your channel. I have to say that in this moment in time. Your channel hit golden status. In my opinion. Keep kicking ass dude

[@wut0.o]

Jimmy's gf is dope she's always all smiles 😁

[@maximus1720]

Really liked the commentary over the runs as apposed to listening to you talk while youre drifting. Felt really personal and kept me interested.

[@shauncollinson4393]

Ruddy your ability to never truly give in or give up has made me get up and get shit done over the past like 8 or 9 years. Never change ruddy. ❤️

[@grannationalboy]

All of these experiences are making you a better driver. Keep your head up.

[@DvsCxnt]

keep at it chris, having fun and enjoying time with friends doing what you love, Does NOT! result in failure. Much love from your humble friends in New Zealand

[@tommy_kaira733]

You need to drift only for fun,because as you are put under a little pressure you crumble...like an ice cap

[@jasonsparshott7208]

That’s not true at all … he has excelled under pressure of competition with his own cars … can you do better do you even race bro ?? Lol

LZ is so much more likeable on other peoples channels. He seems almost fake on his channel, like a persona or something, but on other peoples channels you see him just talking to his friends and you can see he’s a cool guy. Maybe that’s me getting old but I don’t like the over the top KZbinr/vlogger bubbly persona.

Im surprised the only real damage all weekend was by dmac on his own stuff mainly and all of the borrowed cars were fine lol

[@ardennielsen3761]

it is winter time for many months of the year in canada, the cars can go side ways from nothing but the weight transfer of the engine twisting in the cars frame. stuck sideways in a 1/4 mile straight...

not even a clutch dump... just torque, gravel battels? mine can do donuts on gravel, but with 2000lbs on the rear end not on pavement "polished concrete". the rear tires are nearly bald already 4000km's of putting around and there gone.

[@adamschisler6143]

Rudnik is the king of self-inflicted sabotage. His low self esteem coupled with social awkwardness killed this event for him before it even started. Whether it was actually true or over exaggerated the drinking and constant retelling of why he wasn't ready to drive was annoying. He lost before he even got behind the wheel. The abundant resources and skilled drivers around him will only be there so long before they get tored of his antics.

[@ericturnbull9780]

omg, the corvette you battled was SWEET. . Btw, the dude that owns the car said that he wanted to do a Japaneseengine and he wanted to put it in an American car. So He pretty much wanted to do the opposite of what many do in the sate. (putting an LS in a Japanese car) That car is killer now with the rotary. i dont know how they get that much power out of that thing. but it is sweet pace, Eturn

[@brendannunya77]

Feels like my hands are vibrating! Wooaahh, wooaahh!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@subarusam34]

Relax you did a okay job, Josh drives that car at the Drift Games Bashes and has struggled with the gear shifts in that car. The track is very difficult in the wet and never mind not being sure what you're going to get with how quickly it was drying. If you need examples look at qualifying from drift masters at Round 1 that will restore your confidence.

Keep your chin up. You powered thru it. Learn from it and it will be time well spent. Tough to perform in a foreign car, land, etc. you survived it, that’s a small win

[@ChasingPerfection]

It's nice to see people struggle for whatever reason but not quit. I find it baffling a certian someone didnt compete because the car wasn't "competition ready." Like this event was for season points and a huge payout.

Definitely learned something. Nbd if the run were ehh different car that's borrowed an alot of pressure will do that. You kept trying tho that's what matters. Ever think you have legitimate anxiety? Im on blood pressure meds for it it stops my heart rate from spiking like that stops the shaking too.
