Modifying My Streetbike Powered Racecar to Drift!

It’s definitely more of a challenge than I thought - but I’m here for it! Thanks Displate for sponsoring this video! displate.com/?art=63099c0d00a8b CODE: LZ

Check out a guy called “Terry Grant” he’s been doing what your trying in a legend for decades

[@pedromorell8270]

Adam, you need to see a video of the perfect car for drift in your compound and bulit It. This is the video: James Carroll buggies Drift special 3 I think that It can be so funny to drove it

[@kawi-boii]

If the motor is a 600cc then peg that bitch to the Moon power bands top end. If it’s a 1K then do Some engine work

The compound must be such a vibe. Every car guy has dreamed of a place like this to share with their friends, awesome.

[@Frankiesteinzzz]

Let’s get a couple of people and make it happen haha

[@closewatermelon]

My buddy works there and it’s a vibe 100% of the time

[@matt3x37]

Busa it

[@jonathanmish7680]

I've got a Black Road America Wisconsin plate off of one of my Minis, says "SO TINY". Seems fitting with this build, I'd love to ship it to ya! Thanks for the great content!

[@kartzgo9938]

The compound is literally Forza IRL now lmao

[@CraftedC]

I drove one of these types of cars (modlite) a few years ago on dirt. My last one had ATV electric power steering on it. Worked like a charm!

[@mikellewis2346]

That's not a bad idea. Power steering would help from haven to man handle the wheel an throwing his arms into the sides as hard. Hope he see this.

[@danielgarrett1155]

Bump

[@ianguerilla]

[@SkylineKrazy34]

Was thinking something similar like an electric steering pump/rack setup

[@RadDadisRad]

That’s a big alternator tho. Takes a lot of power to run an e-rack.

[@R34Sumo]

Man i love Hert, Guy is so chill and just laid back. He always seems so appreciative of everything and everyone around him. Oh and Grant, what a top guy.

[@dsa420meh7]

[@jaynobles.215]

[@baltazard133T]

Just a heads up you might want to add a nice beefy oil cooling system to keep the wet clutches alive inside of the gearbox... Those clutches do not like extended amount of friction heat from clutch dumps and kicks 👍👍

[@von...]

on the plus side, they are pretty easy to swap when you do inevitably fry them though lol

[@ryanwalker388]

The outside lights could be tinted to give the compound that early need for speed 2 look where each shop type had a different color light that beamed out. Legend car is awesome. You guys have way too much fun.

[@Jacobtheunwise]

Bro thats a ducking awesome idea

[@elviscukurs2671]

It took only one video to have my fb full with the lights ads 😅😅😅

This is a top tier under rated and un noticed comment that we need Adam to atleast see

[@Lucidbkeo]

An alternative is to make all of them RGBW lights, they could be individually addressable for infinite possibilities, although it will probably be pricey.

[@tayjay9120]

The Tree light spot would be a good go pro angle for compound activities

[@Cole1waugh]

In a few years itll be unreachable lol

[@sunnyricer]

@@Cole1waugh In few years they will change few go pro generations

[@burninrubba65]

@@Cole1waughtrees grow from the top. If you screw something in it will stay a the same height. They get thicker as time goes on though. A branch on a tree won’t get higher as it grow because of this

[@Cole1waugh]

@burninrubba65 damnit okay youre right lol.

[@OhCorny]

Give that GoPro it’s own twitch channel and just do 24 hour streams and collect the revenue off of that

[@dzzope]

Idea for the lights, maybe have 2 of them on each tree, 1 where you have them to really highlight the tree and a second higher to give more spread. Reflectors are V underrated, could line all the pavement with them (stick in dirt, screw reflector to it) and trees or other obstacles. Different colours can show entrances or hazzards. Maybe yellow/orange for lining the pavement, green for entrances / access and red for hazzards, blue for water, white for the drops and so on. tonnes of colours to pick from. IMO they are superior to lighting because they are cheaper and work no matter the weather etc/ no power needed and so long as you have lights (even really bad ones) they light up super clear. You guys should do some drift games... Ring racing and such (think barrel racing (rodeo stuff) in cars) Much fun. "King of the Cone" is an event during the Donegal Rally.. Good clean craic..

[@fuzzykinssgaming3221]

Good idea man

[@MistaB44]

The carbs needle / clip position is mostly what you need to adjust for your mid range tuning. You might also want to start by adjusting the air/fuel mix screws

[@dommoss4264]

I agree, I would’ve tried to drop the needles a notch and seen if it ran a little crisper.

[@Ltbookum]

Correct yes: the pilot jet/AFR mixture screw only adjust Idle and just above so 2.5 to 3K rpm. There's a air bypass in the intake you adjust with that. After that its all the needle/main jet taking over.

[@samthesr20man]

Screws are for idle only

[@fuzzykinssgaming3221]

Beat me to it

[@fuzzykinssgaming3221]

This is the whole reason I came to the comments to see if somone had alrdy said it or to get diffrwnt sized sprockets for more power and or torque

[@KBG_savyy]

im here for this legend car series, this thing looks sick cant wait to see what you do with it

[@tylerandersenandthegang]

Crazy what happens when you realize that there's much better racecars out there to be had for a lot less money and effort...

[@MrSherlockDomes]

what's even better is for a lot of states it doesnt take much for them to be street legal.

[@tylerandersenandthegang]

Some people don't realize. An IMCA stock car or a hobby stock car In a lot of places is built to be a clamor car so that anyone in the top 7 cars could purchase it cheap to keep the playing field level... And it's usually less than 1500 bucks... It might even be less than a 1000.

Would be nice to find one for sale. ​@@tylerandersenandthegang

May favorite car on your channel now. I grew up with legends cars. Seeing one repurposed like this is awesome. This could truly be a new evolution of drifting for people who can’t afford to build an actual car to drift. So cool and can’t wait to see what else you have in store for it

[@CJdriftZ]

I wish there was a drift series like this. Where everyone had to have the same exact car. So it’s a real battle for skills instead of certain cars being more powerful or not. It would in my opinion be the most fair drift series

[@yunghiroo4118]

Hey Adam ! Put a fire extinguisher on that legend car ! The energy you emit with your people is just amazing cheers from Japan !

[@fulybuilt]

The legend car deserves a new body full paint job, and a set of rad wheels make it happen Adam!

[@ericvortecmax]

And another 50hp

[@Danger-Dave]

By the end of the week Adam's going to have all the nuances of turning a Legends car into a drift able platform dialed in! I agree with Hert, next year instead of E36's everyone gets a Legends car and mods it. Only prob is, (as Collet & Grant let him know) the sketchiness of speed & the short wheelbase and basically open wheel chassis/frame with the little fenders and running boards, questionable welds Ect...might dampen the door tapping fun some. Guess you could aways weld some side skirt bash bars on. 🎄Merry X-Mas LZ Compound looks great BTW!

[@OneShotKilla_]

This legends car series is so cool. Love seeing something completely different from anyone else. Adam your a genius.....

[@jasonkrebs1859]

I’m liking the videos with the legend car. Cool to see this thing pushed in a completely different direction then intended

[@SuperstreetC10]

One thing to keep an eye on is the 3rd link. They rip right off the frame. Double shear it if it’s not done yet.

[@bUtMyRiGhTs]

Hey Adam, you're going to keep having gunk build up from the ethanol in your pump gas phase separating. Go to WAWA and the blue recreational gas pumps are ethanol free and that is definitely what you should be putting in a carbureted engine ;)

[@VampyrMygg]

Imagine showing up to drift events in that thing... it's hilarious, makes me wonder if those oval racers would work for drifting too, the ones with the giant wings that only goes left, as the wings are set up for downforce going left.

The compound is the ultimate playground. Buying this place was the best purchase I’ve seen any KZbinr make. Cleeter a close 2nd haha

[@Gromitz101]

These old school builds where it has R&D are far more interesting and probably easier on the budget. Bringing in random friends to help is also great cross collab. There is progression in the build, yourself, and your shop. TJ builds of high priced new cars and other youtubers, I just can't get excited about. There are very few build videos that keep me watching and the only excitement is the reveal video. Keep up the great content Adam.

Don’t get discouraged if you’re stuck on a project. Most of us are in fact. You have to admit that even tho if someone else finishes it for you it’s still cool to have something working properly, but when you do it yourself, it sounds hella cliche, but you feel so much more accomplished and confident in something that YOU did

This is the future of car culture content. Forget big budgets and major race tracks fooling around in cars you'll never see with people who you have nothing in common with.

This was a hundred times more entertaining than watching millionaires fool around with a supercar and talk about tech that literally nobody can afford. Also: SMALL, LIGHT, LOUD, AND ROUGH FTW!
