MY FIRST PODIUM WITH RTR | FORMULA D SEATTLE

ACTION PACKED! We finally got on the podium at the 6th round of Formula D at one of my favourite tracks in FD. It didn't come easy, we had good luck mixed with bad luck but never gave up along the way narrowly missing out on the finals with Chelsea - Congrats on the win buddy! I hope you enjoy this one, I know I certainly did haha.
Bring on Utah! JD

James doin the engine impersonation was unexpected and hilarious 😂

[@miketech2]

Almost got me as I took a drink 🍺 😮‍💨

[@gabrieljoreygaming]

I spit my drink at my phone after that

[@kevinfaberlle530]

That part had me dying 🤣🤣

[@hatch450sx3]

You can tell he was envisioning it in his head too. You see the camera pause then move again like he was transferring.

[@cds401]

James winning all motor against Odi, insane

[@kevinfunk83]

You said it! Should’ve been a omt against Hughes if FD actually judged how they say they do, leadVlead chaseVchase.

[@hatch450sx3]

This reminds me of wall NJ 3 years ago. His nitrous stopped working in the 2j s15. He just said "well it's fine I just have to do my job and drive the car." And he won first place with no nitrous in top 4. Respect James!

[@christophermccullagh8997]

Such a humble guy. For sure won his battle

[@ivancarlovillaruel9513]

shouldve been chelsea and you in the finals, but the judges favored dylan bcoz its his hometown

[@jankesbmw]

yep he missed zones when chasing

[@user-fv7df9km4i]

@@jankesbmwand had no angle

[@TheRagingRayn]

@@user-fv7df9km4i Love how they would always talk about matching angle when chasing, but conveniently didn't care about it whatsoever in that battle.

[@keshkalleshh8329]

Hometown won against skills, it was so obvious. Gotta have independent judges, closed in a room where they don't see the reactions from the audience. That'll increase the accuracy and transparency.

[@zdobycz99]

that foot work Oo

[@anthonygibbo1881]

James is a true gentleman and beccy is an English rose and to see them as a team working is just awesome combo thank u guys love ya ❤️ sorry to be so shit but I'm trying to be super nice here and boost ya algorithms james 🤪😂😂 sorry I've had a couple bevvies

[@alexandercowin4921]

congrats on your first podium of the season! also the bit at 5:48 had me dying 😂, also his team telling him to chase robbins calmly, have they never met this man

[@ryancooper8540]

Just like Dumbledore asked Harry Potter did he put his name in the Goblet Of Fire CALMLY

5:53 😂the edit and and filming brilliant James lol ❤ queen B

Horrendous call giving Dylan that win. You’re definitely more humble than I could ever be 😂

You being back on grid was the reason I went this year! Keep up the progression!

More engine noises. please 😂That was some Disgustingly sick driving and grats on the podium finish bringing it home for Ireland. Hoping to see you shake thing up in the DM in Poland 😁

[@se7en910]

20:40 "All the transitions were sick" james deane talking about james deane. Bro we all see it like you see it. I love it.

[@spamandsazon]

Shocked that the American judges didn't OMT that top 4 battle (first time in many years I expected them to and they didn't).Seems like the car is finally getting to a setup that works right for you. Can't wait to be in Utah!

[@craik26]

Bittersweet to me to watch the top 4 battle again because it solidifies my bias judgment of you winning that battle, nonetheless you ended up on the podium so Congratulations on that!!!. 1st place will come soon!

[@Brad-Poeta-Racing]

You with the engine sounds from the stands was absolutely hilarious for one and came out of nowhere I was dying laughing thank you

[@fazarwijaya4613]

Goodjob mr.precision i'd love to see you vlog with becky and holding the camera makes the video more interesting to watch goodluck for the FD Utah james 🤞🙌

congratulation James. Legend of drifting.

[@JohnMichael0226]

Loved the aero discs this round, immediately thought "shoot he got me" if you know you know! Glad to see you on the podium, I see a strong rest of the season! Love the 4-rotor as well, absolutely perfect!

[@kellonbeckford8615]

Bro they won't stop robing him

[@joshpittman2939]

I personally felt like you should have had an OMT in the final 4 even with the mistake at the end of the bank but hey a podium is still good

[@leofhr2966]

Personally his mistake on the bank isn't even close to the many mistakes Hughes had

[@joshpittman2939]

@@leofhr2966 they say they don’t weigh the chases as heavily but his mistake cost him the win when his lead was better

[@pieterv6984]

At least OMT. Hughes had poor angle in chase, had his back tires on a lower line on the bank as a result, and completely missed OZ 3. So that combination is less bad then Deane coming slightly off the bank at the end? The explaining judge didn't give reasons while 'explaining' afterwards. Because there are none?

[@leofhr2966]

@@joshpittman2939 It really doesn't make sense at all, they are contradicting themselves on every single topic they have ever brought up in this one battle, it's actually mind breaking stupid levels of ignorance and oblivious inconsistencies. They have literally mentioned how they dislike drivers throwing less angle to keep close proximity, Dylan does exactly that in his chase, they have complained about chase drivers not mimicking the lead driver to maintain their proximity and pressure on the lead, Dylan does that the entire run, they have complained about drivers missing zones because they try to keep proximity and not mimick the lead driver as can cause mistakes or crashes or even have a poor run in general because of this, look at OZ 3, nobody is home but James in that zone as far as I can see. James did a perfect lead run and did a much better job in his chase even tho his one mistake was leaving the bank early, he mimicked Dylan and stayed close to him the entire run and tried to at least touch every zone following Dylan, yet the judge said Dylan did a better job in all of those areas like having angle and mimicking the lead driver and filling zones, it's like they are either blind or somehow mistook James for Dylan.

[@hatch450sx3]

​@@leofhr2966right!? Look at both their attacks on the entry wall. JD was making love to that wall. Hughs didn't match his angle for nothing there. I like Dylan hughs he's a good guy. But judges got this one really wrong.

As somebody who was able to attend this event your first battle for top 32 was nerve-racking to watch. Definitely felt like a one more time was in order on the last battle. Your lead was so much cleaner than his, but his chase was stronger. Congrats on the podium!!

Your chase with Robbins was so sick!

[@karsenleonard9340]

you n your shordy get around so good together

[@LukeViozzi]

Definitely has been a big progression year for James, switching from a turbo 2J comp car to the RTR drivetrain. I'm sure he'll just keep getting more comfortable and keep piecing it together. Even this round he showed in his battle with Robbins that he can flip a switch and run a kill-mode chase, or like his lead with Hughes... He's getting way more confident and capable.

[@J03130]

your wheel cover cracks me up. "catch people out in the burnout box" i guarantee at least one person laughed when they saw it for themselves and got it xD

[@GetBusyDrift]

i can’t imagine the feeling of driving for RTR man must still feel like a kid in a dream

Seems to me that those cars are the most razor edge cars out there. Harder to drive, but bigger rewards when you can tame it.
