He may act like you're bothering him but old drivers love sharing their Glory days. Soak up that knowledge guys.

[@fiercenet]

100% they may act salty, but the torch needs to pass one day.

[@Cekmore]

I'd like to see more of Mr Lemon 🍻🐈🔥

[@user-180-mand90]

Meh. This napolean complex is prevalent in many US race shops and local guys. I think partly due to only worrying about short-life span race conditions...they aren't having to actually design nor engineer to last...which is always the most difficult. This attitude and lack of transparency disappears once you get to the real talent and industry jobs...it would never fly at places like Tesla, Mazda, Ford etc.

Vargas looks like a young version of the dude from “Up”

[@chicagovasko]

No look up cactus jack. Just like him.

[@bryanspilner]

I agree lmao

[@Gonzo.S.Thompson]

I can see him as a cranky old man when he gets old.

[@dyrteebyrds7212]

“Carl Fredrickson” movie character name:)

[@YostBuilt]

dave is 200% correct ! wide open and shut it down ...pull the plug and check for a clean burn and timing mark on the strap ! they make a microscope to do it that helps alot 🔥 tech tips by dave

[@SimABCXYZ]

Yost Built is that for a rotary only or are you supposed to do that for all engines? I’ve never heard of this before

[@YostBuilt]

@@SimABCXYZ all engines ...its the only proper way to read a plug ! big time nitrous guys use this method too i have 150 shot on my 150 hp b20 integra and the stock block was 100% stock and i never broke it ..because i understand how to read plugs and tell tuner what to adjust!

[@kirstysinclair9021]

You need to keep that old guy in beers and steaks . He knows so much he has to close his eyes so he only tells you the basics . . Worth his weight in gold .

Visiting with the old Parts guys is the best part of building cars. Really enjoying your outtakes

[@QuickTrickTools]

A good lesson about this industry. When someone that experienced speaks to you; Listen..

[@Atomicneko3000]

Dave Lemon is a real racing OG

[@robrayne9144]

This is the most important video ever uploaded to this channel.

[@jaybrewster2475]

Parts shop guys talk shit to hide the fact that they're actually reveling in the human interaction.

[@pawpatina]

because back in their day talking shit WAS talking... no pussies back then. they stayed at home and baked cookies.

[@jaybrewster2475]

@@pawpatina I don't know about all that. I'm saying if they break your balls then that means they like you. Nothing more or less.

[@clem90992]

Dave's rotary knowledge is endless hes the real deal holyfield of rotaries.

[@Ergotfungi]

Love mazdatrix ❤️ Recently made two separate purchases and separate shipping. I called up and asked if they could put the premix bottles in the same box as the premix and the oil change I purchased to make it easier on the shipping of it all. Was told no, flat out lol 😂I get an email with the invoice and the note says they put the bottles in the box for me and refunded the shipping for what wasn’t shipped separately. Very awesome customer service 🙏🏻

[@Ergotfungi]

And thanks for the advice!

[@taylorscott3150]

Love the little bonus vids inbetween the big build n battle vids!

[@aaronforward1004]

Who else would watch *A beer with Dave Lemon* ?

[@trevonball3278]

The unknown world of rotary is now seeing the light im very exp but never knew rotary. You guys and varg have opened up my car knowledge immensely. Good S#!+ HOONIGAN FTW

[@Cekmore]

The og Wankle is from about 1929....🍻

[@Buggblasta]

Love and respect the OG’s of this race game. They know more then we’ll ever know. With all the tech, and sensors and computers, OG’s blow them outta the water. Respect to Mr. Dave Lemon.

[@nathalycarney4015]

Dave is a true OG. I love the stories and also the how can you not remember the only black guy that comes into the shop comment made me sit my drink out LMFAOOOO

[@pepesilvia9085]

You two need to touch Wankels already, the tension is killing us

[@Matty.Hill_87]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Shreddiespaghetti]

The people have spoken. We want more Dave and rotary content.

[@exoida]

its always a treat getting stories from the past from legends. loving this series for so many reasons .

[@XGamerzzz]

can we get "a beer with Dave the rotary daddy" ?

[@mesa50w]

Dave is the goat .. could listen to him for hours

[@rodriguezsax]

Definitely need more old head wisdom/shop visits like these.

[@wademiyataki9221]

Dave's awesome! He's like the rotary Mr. Miyagi

[@MrDannyd9]

So cool! I got chills from some of those stories! The flag is awesome too

[@juliollamas13]

He signed the same flag as Dale Earnhardt did what a freakin G, RESPECT

[@ianmiller3050]

Elderly men that own their own little parts shops/garages are always the best guys to talk to. Their mannerisms are so amusing and how they shoot shit with the regulars is hilarious

[@HarZoiD]

Many would have thought Mazdatrix was defunct but these videos are showing its alive and well. Awesome!

[@locorabbit30]

Best Part of the Video at the end 18:10 😂😂😂 brad

[@MafiaboysWorld]

$35 for a rotor housing?! 😳😳😳 That would be $350 each here in Australia, minimum!!

[@fiercenet]

they are trashed. good for making crafts out of.

[@MafiaboysWorld]

@@fiercenet Would still be sold here for $350 each. 😂🤣

[@macpumperkinz]

18 minute Bonus, this is the shit i need at 3 in the morning

[@mowler8042]

So lucky to have old school places like this in California to pass on knowledge so cool.

[@rendomatt]

Bring Dave to the track for the races!

[@danielfajardo5249]

“Are we really going to start this right now,” “not in front of Dave” 😂

[@Peongster]

Brad "I got this scam"😂😂😂😂

[@dfw1fast143]

If he’ll lower his standards we’d love to have him as part of the channel.

[@highlytics]

That's right brad preach at the end brotha!!!!

[@angelmotorsports]

Kseetitan how? Cause he gets to bring all his parts from his house so he doesn’t have any interaction with his buyers or audience “mAkEs SenSe , pReACh BroTHa”

[@bradgraham8272]

hey atleast brads there working on his truck and not pawning off his duties

[@angelmotorsports]

brad Graham poor Jose stuck fixing brads shit lol

[@ValladolidArde]

Wow, Dave Lemon is a legend, please interview him and do a build breakdown on one of his cars PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE

[@fallenbullseye]

i love these bonus videos for the build and battle. keep em coming!

[@Me-fj8sb]

Another thing, back on the days there was a lack of knowledge and racing parts for rotary, no billet parts, no real machine shop dedicated to rotary, nothing, basically guys like Dave where the ones to help the evolution of that motor, they were struggling with failure all the time and they have to come up with a solution out their heads, porting probably was experimental, so thanks to him and other we enjoy this new Era of rotary parts and performance enhancements, incredible

[@hawaiiriding6281]

Hert needs to bring his car to Dave. We need a bonus channel where hert gives Dave a ride in his car. Please.

[@kyhillbillys10]

Man so much knowledge was dropped in this video

[@faze65churrchurr17]

For sure use need to do an interview with him and look at his car!!

[@e30sdontrun86]

This video was wholesome af.

[@Cocpain]

Not sure if the full throttle shut down is a rotary specific thing to read plugs, but the guy makes a lot of sense. Going to have to look into it as far as how it concerns piston engines, I may have been doing it wrong for the last 20 years. Thanks Hoonigan.

[@randomjokers7185]

John is low key passive/aggressive AF. lol I bet being in the shop and listening to Brad and John taking shots at each other is hilarious!!

[@scottjinx]

love to hear rotary stories from back in the day especially from someone who has lived it with so much passion as he has, really enjoying the dorito content hey, cheerz :)

[@fmx623]

this is that raw content i like

[@BigGroupHug]

"you were making a list, did your crayon run out?" outstanding

[@emune1111]

always cool to hear wisdom from an OG

[@jameslatham3521]

10:57 🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣😂 😅

[@Cekmore]

Can we get Dave for a special.... ABW... HertAttack...build bio... burnyard? Something🍻🐈🔥🔥🔥

[@dondagy9109]

It should also be noted a hot plug will also cause spark knock earlier, and because of the forced induction it is also important for the colder plug.

[@adamthompson6669]

Love this series thank you so much. Hope the legendary boss gets in on this action. I also want a rotary Mazda now

[@ItsMeYush]

so much knowledge in that mans head! cherish EVERY SINGLE BIT OF IT!
