Tales From the Tailgate - The Top 10 Videos Of Scotty's Garage!

[@Flinty460]

Such a cool video mate.. Love your work. One of the OG's of Australian Burnout videos. Easy to forget that you're standing there for sometimes more than 8 hours at a time to catch 60-90 seconds of the best footage.

[@blownhemi]

Yep, they all forget that part

[@R3KA90]

Well said flinty Scotty and yourself are legends

[@R3KA90]

Cheers for the like scotty

[@jamesbaylis9438]

Story Time with Scotty, I was expecting a old leather chair, next to an open fire with a couple tyres burning, whilst Scotty is drinking a Lemon Squash from a Big Block Piston.😂😂❤❤

[@FuManchu5ltr]

You know what I just realised. How whole body happy he is. Relaxed. His face is bright and proper happy sharing these great fireside stories. In his element here. Even looked happy when it was raining.

[@MrToranaGuy]

Thank you Scotty!

[@CRFLAus]

Good onya Scotty! Yeah it's been farkin miserable weather lately. Here's hoping for an early spring!

[@johnkerr113]

Your Wright Scott people don't see or understand the work that goes in to something behind the sence keep the good work up mate 👍

[@mahcooharper9577]

Great bit of nostalgia there! I was there for the Turdrunner powerskid in Sydney, we all thought it was the best powerskid ever that day! And I sent that video to heaps of people so I'm probably half of the views on that one! Sucks that YT has downgraded the quality, ridiculous. :( Funny to think of someone complaining about getting too much traffic online haha A couple of these I haven't seen yet, will work my way down the list so there's 10 more views for you at least... Don't know why Peter wouldn't like that video, I think expression sessions like that should happen more. Shows they can do more than just sit on the brake and make smoke... It's a great legacy you've already got Scotty, looking forward to seeing what's to come!

[@blownhemi]

@mahcooharper9577 thanks mate

[@TankyMcStagger]

That's a pretty solid resume right there. ❤

[@bryanmctaggart6352]

I had to remind myself how I found your channel back in the day before I was writing and shooting from the rails. I had seen your footage early on (the drifty Camaro for sure) but I couldn’t remember if yours was the first Aussie burnout or not. This footage of George Separovich’s evil HK Monaro that nitroclutchy shot at Motorvation ‘04 was the first. Some Aussie troops were showing the footage to a mouthy gearhead troop I knew while we were in Iraq. After seeing it for myself, I told the kid to admit defeat and copied the vid onto my computer. Those early vids spread like wildfire during those deployments. Lots of inspiration came from those early vids!

[@blownhemi]

@bryanmctaggart6352 that's cool. That HK burnout was awesome.

[@TheShedSesh]

Nice one Scotty. As they say, "you can please some people some of the time but you can't please everyone, all of the time!" Keep it up mate. Lovin it.

[@blownhemi]

@TheShedSesh I can't seem to please anyone, except you guys

[@TheClintmeister]

Scotty you are a Legend!! I'm in the states in a 3 horse community in rural Okla and love your videos!

[@blownhemi]

@TheClintmeister thanks mate, I grew up deep in the Australian bush, so I know what it's like to live away from the big cities. It amazes me that I have fans all over the world. Thanks for watching

[@TheClintmeister]

@@blownhemi I hope to get a chance and see a Australian burnout contest. And get a chance to meet ya. Thx Clint Smith

[@glensgraphix]

When I saw the title I didn't think this was going to be that interesting. Sometimes it's good to be wrong! It was fun to know you had quite a number of virial videos and that I had seen them. Your #4 was such a cock up by everyone involved. But the worst thing, I saw in that video, the first time I saw it, was an event official kicking a competitors car!!! That could've turned into a huge mess. The most controversial thing I have seen such an event. A lot of interesting background to these videos. Thanks for sharing.

[@FuManchu5ltr]

All your videos are my favourite videos.

[@downtheshedwithbyron]

Cheers Scotty 🍻 Dude some great views 👌

[@stevenloynds3691]

Good morning Scotty and to the rest of the community...

[@blownhemi]

@stevenloynds3691 good morning

[@pippi-_-]

@stevenloynds3691 good morning random sir

[@gemini3558]

The Gemini burnout was epic !!! Bring’s back some awesome memories !!! 😜👍🇦🇺

[@JarrodCardno]

one of my favourite old burnout videos is that black 68 hk monaro from 2004 motorvation

[@blownhemi]

@@JarrodCardno yeah, that was awesome. It was filmed by the guys at Motovation. I think we used it on one of the Street Commodores DVDs

[@JarrodCardno]

@@blownhemi I always go back and watch it from time to time

[@tony66au]

What people don't realise is a LOT of the Car content we take for granted was totally unseen in the US, Epic Burnouts and skidpan action just wasnt known or a thing in the United States and suddenly 300 Million plus viewers are exposed to tyre shredding mayhem, Fires and raw primal displays of destruction never before seen and often in US Classic cars. Add to this Our casual dismissal when asked about this stuff like "Oh yeah thats just Summernats" and We do this all the time and the Americans just want in on the fun. When you take a hard look at it ........ Top Fuel Drag engines used to melt tyres is kinda nuts lol but whoa what a thing :-)

[@blownhemi]

@@tony66au very true

[@MrR31power]

Cool episode Scotty. Do you think Melbourne will get any more events like easter nats ? It's been a long time since we've had a big on track event like that.

[@blownhemi]

@@MrR31power I really don't think so. Sandown is going to be developed soon, Calder is hard to deal with, and there really isn't anywhere else

[@trevorhunter374]

Thanks for the cool video

[@bingysbackyard]

I remember that easternats with Milan Dokic..i have been to his house and bought a t400 off him he is a great bloke i was there that year i think thats the same year Gary Myers nearly lost his foot from gearbox explosion in the mustang... I have alot of vhs footage of Peter Gray racing a methanol 4 cylinder corolla about 4 years before he started burnouts... he was awarded most entertaining driver award most years for drifting the track instead of racing the normal way... i might get the vhs videos converted too upload to youtube

[@honestpat7789]

Love that Nukinfuts video, and so what if the drivers view doesn’t align with yours … everything is there, on video for the viewer to decide 🤷‍♂️ As for other car builders not enjoying your successes; well, they’re builders and you’re a content creator and each party is going to see the world from different perspectives and I don’t see how anyone could be getting taken advantage of here. I see only benefits. That’s the power of content and without people like yourself, people like Gray don’t get exposure. Good luck going up to mainstream media and expecting a handout if they do half as much 😂

[@MRMOPARMAN0426]

I reckon at least 250,000 of those nukinfuts views are from me. Absolute classic moment.

[@shanesmith9356]

Awesome collection of videos! KZbin downgrading video quality is really annoying! I had to delete a 4k dash cam video because it was downgraded to 360p.

[@blownhemi]

Yeah, it's frustrating that videos with so many views have been downgraded. I can understand if they were videos with only a couple hundred views, but 900,000 views?

[@bradhouse4649]

Scotty’s Garage should be called Scotty’s stories

[@blownhemi]

Everyone loves a good story

[@jimclarke1108]

Ithink i missed some of this great stuff✌

[@chasinlines4803]

Nuknfuts burn out was the best I was right on the fence next to the start line I think I was 10 or 11 at the time and it's a good memory of the event

[@michaelteasdale2919]

Nucinfutus is the Greatest angry burnout of all time!!!

[@Keiththescoutcrazy]

Holly smokes Kranky was your VID loved it still do

[@mattangrave8478]

Hahahhaha imagine being mad that you've been filmed at an event 😂😂

[@Doc_in_the_carpet_truck]

Was there at Easternats on questionable substances watching that Milan camaro just got goosebumps Scotty cant believe its been 20 years 🤣I was the f*ckwit yelling FLUFFY!!!!!!

[@1969Risky]

Interesting stories behind the videos Scotty. I'm still a firm believer that any publicity is good publicity, even if a driver had a shit run. You have a pile of videos so it'll take me a while to get through them.

[@MrTroy1098]

I’m sure the Milan Camaro vid was event where he belted (justifiably) a security guard. Slapping the bonnet if someone’s car gets you that

[@blownhemi]

I'm not sure touching a car is justification for belting someone. Sounds like there's more to that story.

[@W0rp3D]

Easternats were awesome, i went to the first at Winton but it wasn't the same

[@RebeccaGriffin-b8n]

My vote goes to that " go to woe "

[@timothyjohnson869]

❤

[@crunchytheclown9694]

woohoo

[@Low760]

Imagine spending half a mil to get 1200hp..... Wow.

[@blownhemi]

@Low760 the problem is he spent alot of money at one workshop and when that didn't get the result he had to start again with another workshop. It was also the early days of big horsepower, so it cost more. Now you could do it alot cheaper.

[@michaelteasdale2919]

It was also before the time you could make 1000HP with an LS and a toothbrush.

[@Low760]

@@blownhemi oh I remember the time. Just so much money.

[@DodgyBrothersEngineering]

@@Low760 I think a big part of the problem is success has gone to some of these shops heads. Once upon a time I remember when it might have cost you $5,000 to get 350hp, but then these shops started to get a reputation and before you know it you were spending $20,000 to get the same amount of work $5,000 would have once bought you. Ohh it billet that makes it cost ten times as much. And that is how we have ballooned into these current stupid prices.

[@antonjimmy5636]

You've also gotta remember 20+ years ago turbos were nowhere near as cheap or efficient as they are now, ECUs weren't as advanced, and I'm pretty sure there were rules around pump gas, and alcohol based fuels not being allowed for the Horse Power Heroes comp (you got bumped into an "open" or demo class I think)

[@codybailey4823]

Scotty, people don’t realise that any publicity is good publicity

[@danielsultana5615]

👌 looks like I've got some videos to catch up on! 👆 🔥 👆

[@scotthunter1639]

Trent Smith from Wollongong Scotty.. He's won numerous "Powercruise" event's.. Ended up being blown injected mate..

[@blownhemi]

There you go

[@michaelteasdale2919]

Scotty you wanna know the easiest why to know a 67/68 Camaro? Because I agree the fronts can look the same…..The 67 has 1/4 vents in the front doors….So both the Camaros in this vid are 68’s…..Your Welcome 😁

[@blownhemi]

Yeah, I know. I just couldn't remember at the time I was speaking if the car had 1/4 vents or not

[@martineales6499]

Can you talk about potential earnings from such videos?

[@blownhemi]

Not as much as you might imagine. How much do you think 19million views would get?

[@ryanmartland3757]

Do you get payed every month or a once off pay from youtube

[@blownhemi]

KZbin earnings are paid once a month if you hit your threshold. Generally that's about $150AUD. If you don't hit your threshold it accumulates each month until it does and then they'll pay you.

[@ryanmartland3757]

@@blownhemi so I prob won't get payed for my 100views of LS1 with cam idling lol

[@blownhemi]

@@ryanmartland3757 probably not. KZbin has certain parameters that have to be met before you reach partner status, the first of which is 1000 subscribers.

[@DodgyBrothersEngineering]

People certainly are strange. Nothing stops them hiring someone to take professional videos of their cars, so they can upload it to their channel and hopefully do as well as you did. But instead they would rather begrudge you having any kind of success. Not sure if it was smart decision but I removed a couple of videos from my channel that got about 300,000 views. It wasn't really in line with what I want my channel to be, and I didn't want to get subscribers off the wrong kind of content.

[@JK_Kustoms]

I reckon a 1000 of the views on the Kranky video are from me.

[@lancegraham7722]

I remember try hard...whatvever happened to that car?

[@blownhemi]

@@lancegraham7722 not sure

[@antonjimmy5636]

Seems like theres a few sooks out there. I'd be happy if any footage of my car ever got that big, and you don't earn a million bucks from a single million view video. I remember watching quite a few of these videos on dial up at a mates place haha

[@blownhemi]

@@antonjimmy5636 roughly a million views back then used to be around $1000

[@antonjimmy5636]

@blownhemi damn. You don't get anywhere near that these days

[@antoniowilliams2438]

So has carnage got a new boss I noticed video that are not build video are you slowly leaving carnage

[@blownhemi]

@antoniowilliams2438 nope, we're part of a new company now, and they're making new content to share on Streetmachinetv. All one big happy family. Scotty's Garage is my own deal and just a way of getting me enthused about getting my own projects sorted. To be honest, I've been happier in the last two months than I have in the last few years.

[@antoniowilliams2438]

@blownhemi ok cool because if you were leaving I was going to unsubscribe and stay subscribed to this channel not going to support a Chanel if your not on it

[@blownhemi]

@antoniowilliams2438 I appreciate that, but nobody is being replaced, it's just more content. They were making the content for Performance Garage but they haven't been getting the views they'd like. StreetmachineTV is a bigger channel with a bigger audience, it's win-win

[@Frontman936]

Have watched the Gemini many times over. Why? Because I just wanted to see vids of guys getting kicked out of the nats.

[@panelvanman7671]

just realised i got UNSUBED a few weeks ago , must have been then because i caught a few of ya vids after you got back into ya shed again
