@@AndreKlebleyev My GenX is tune the same way, but I wouldn't dial it out, since the 106 inch wheelbase means I can plant the accelerator for technical part and ignore the transitions (that'll send the rear drive off the track). Result is too much speed, since you treated that section as a straight away, which means I have to do a quick right/left with the steering and stab the brake to initiate a slight drift or loose all my speed.
No matter what mood I'm in, watching these track days gets me all hyped up, great production, great cars, great driving, what a day! Jimmy was a fun addition too, lightening the stresses of the competition, but also pushing people to go faster! Nice.
If K-Swap Ben reads this, you know how you put the black vinyl over the 'grill' area to make it look less aggressive? Maybe more around the intercooler hole could make it look better. Thoughts?
@@goosebee for sure! It's a great example of function over form. It's (imo) fairly unattractive with all that aero and wing but it's needed so I can forgive how odd it looks
Really enjoyed the new style format to the gridlife videos with the interview style. Gives good insight to what happens behind the scenes as well as how the competitors feel about the BEN's. Paints the full story for us viewers.
Congrats Civic Ben! Nice job Evo Ben! My 1st (and only) GRIDLIFE in '19 at Mid-Ohio I got 10th in Street but I learned quick that to be at the top you need the right car/mods/setup to go along with solid driving. I've retired from TA so I love watching you guys build the cars up the right way as you progress as drivers!
This channel year over year proves to be one in a million. One of the best channels on UA-cam for years now and it seems it's getting only stronger. Great job lads, your work is much appreciated!
@@ali_nfb32 nah i think from what the news said its was a transport driver who was taking a pilot to their hotel... unless i was reading a old report aha. but i know we're definitely in a lockdown again for two weeks
Every time I watch a Gears and Gasoline video I fall in love with cars even more. You guys are just awesome. And those cars are absolutely beautiful. Keep up the awesome work G&G
Well guys I wasn’t sure I could enjoy your videos much more but this one proved you’re the best channel I know! So hyped to see how the rest of the season goes and you’ve found another loyal fan for life!
ive been following you for a while now and i absolutely love your channel, so much variety and each video has the best quality anyone could ask. it has been a journey and im loving it
Guys, guys! You should post your best laps here. No music. Na chatting. Pure car sounds. Maybe a little commentary. Little editing. That's easy content. We love those kind of videos.
I hope that you two keep producing videos for a while. I had your last video with you two together and my s/o sat down and watched the whole thing with me and at the end she looked over and said, “ Wow, I didn’t realize there were car youtubers that make it look cool, and not all ‘bro bro in your face’ type videos.” Keep up the amazing, interesting, and better than TV type series.
I'm currently building a car, 65' mustang to be exact. I'm not building it to be a track car but it does have track oriented suspension for the canyons. May need to take it to fontana speedway and do one of those autox events. These videos are truly great. Keep up the great work.
Literally the best video I've seen from you guys yet, and that's saying something!!! Thoroughly enjoyed this, the production was top notch, action was great, and you guys and the other fellas there are a hoot. Keep it up!!!
Usually when I see one of my subscribed UA-cam channels have uploaded a video longer than 20 mins, I either don't bother watching it, or I use the 10 second fast forward function a lot. With these lads, I always watch the full video without skipping. 👍
I get so fired up every time I see that you posted a new video. The quality of your content is amazing dot also that bums me out that the intake in the headlight was custom because I have been looking to get one for my EK.
It's fun to see these cars on track, there's a few gridlife cars that attended some autocross events local to me. Mainly that #87 BMW M3, a yellow Evo, and an S2K from what I recall.
Ben great job with the civic first place that's phenomenal Ben you got this you in the Evo will make podium next time. You guys have come along way thanks for taking us on your journey 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Awesome stuff guys! Every video you make the production quality is just through the roof and fun to follow the journey of you building, developing and then racing the cars. I time attack an Evo 7 in the UK have vids on my channel- am still in the infancy of the build but is coming along! :D
Love It Love It, Man the luck of that side road when the brakes gave out it's insane, Angels looking out for you. Again great direction great filming and orchestration everything A1 & Improvements.
I cannot wait I haven't even like got 20 seconds into the video and I want to see the Civic battle the Evo it is been a long freaking of Journey but I want to see this this is epic
Think I found my favorite sport in cars, time attack never got my attention but I finally watched a video on it (this one) and I can safely say it might be my thing
I will recommend quick jacks for the track. I don't know if you have them or not, but they are a life savior at tracks and they are great in the garage.
For the turbocharged cars, we've put electric water pumps like the davies pump and it really made a huge difference in temps. We're in the Philippines and I run a 07 subaru sti so its hot all the time. We had water temps at 203F with the mechanical pump and brought it down to 193F all day long. I hope this helps.
Jimmy Diggs smack talk is on point, he's ready for his WWE debut!
Dave, we gotta see videos of you and Pete out at the track.
@@N21theboss soon!
He talks a lot of game. I like that. 😂
Dave, finish my car so I can join the fun please. Thanks hun!
WWE is that former race car drivers go?
Jimmy Diggs is a great villain. Can’t wait to see his character development later in the season.
When's next season though?
Jimmy Diggs for me is this guy at school that you can’t tell whether he is your friend or a bully
If you need a help he showed up then he is your friend. If not he's a bully
@@ayol1011 no no no, he showed up when you need him, but still bully you when you're safe. It's like his job, no one took his job.
iv been there done that
Diggs bullies the bully mate
@@sarthak8441 yes lol
" some dumb honda probem, zero laps and he's already having a crisis" 🤣🤣🤣these guys are hilarious.
lmaoooooo frrr bro
Had me rollin’
“Apparently some rotary spilt some oil on the track go figure, the guy should k swap the thing” 💀💀
lol evo did have a major issue while building tho
This whole video is a masterpiece of production. That intro especially
Well they can’t, because the channel and the studio would strip them of their creative control; which is the reason why it’s such a good video
Was coming in to say the same thing but you beat me to it! Awesome video guys.
“Then you have data to back you up!” Jimmy Diggs
Should change his name to Jimmy DD. Jimmy "data-driven" Diggs
Ben really taking full advantage of that oil sponsorship
Fill upp the oil and check the fuel level.
Now that I think of it...I've never seen Jackie Ding and Jimmy Diggs in the same place...Nah,I'm sure it's just a coincidence
I love how Ben’s Civic three wheels on fast corners! Looks so epic!
Thicc sway bars ;)
nice dive into the corner, seem like tuning is spot on. Need to flush the brake fluid before every session since front drive makes heavy use of em.
It’s the only way to really force the 90s Honda chassis to rotate into corners
@@AndreKlebleyev My GenX is tune the same way, but I wouldn't dial it out, since the 106 inch wheelbase means I can plant the accelerator for technical part and ignore the transitions (that'll send the rear drive off the track).

@@AndreKlebleyev Integra Type R enters the chat...."Bitch...i was the first FWD car to "pop" my ass out when i powered through corners!" ;)
I feel guilty watching this for free
@Daniel Long i think OP is just saying that this content is too good to be free :P
Check out the merch store, bro.
Stfu lol
Yeah, I canceled Netflix and prime. This is way better
Calling a bad wheel bearing on a 90s civic a “crisis “ while he has to put oil in his car every 15 min 😂
race car things lol
You know your ur car is a project car when your rear rims are 6 spoke and the fronts are 5 spoke. I love it!!
"Some dumb Honda problem" well damn tall Ben
Man the quality on these videos is just phenomenal, us viewers can't say it enough. Keep up the good work!
That wheel bearing is going... In the bin!
Mcm ftw
Good to see a mcm viewer, with good choices to watch this channel
It fits a Honda.... confirmed!
Love the MCM reference
Hehe MCM viewer
This is how fast and furious films should be
Fast and Furious 10, TIME FOR ATTACK. Either about time attack racing or Dom and the gang battling aliens attacking Earth. Probably the latter.
FAMILY
If the Civic still has VTEC - it is faster automatically.
umm yup. whatever you say
It makes sense if you don't think about it
@@RTRaceworks watch the vid... lmao
Evo has mivec which is the exact same thing
@@SpazzemTM Nope.
So much excitement and highs and lows in a single episode. Basically, who needs Champions League.
Him: I’m going to get into everyone’s head and set the fastest lap time.
His brakes: Are you sure about that?! I’m going to get into your head now. 😂
Brakes with the savagery!
No matter what mood I'm in, watching these track days gets me all hyped up, great production, great cars, great driving, what a day! Jimmy was a fun addition too, lightening the stresses of the competition, but also pushing people to go faster! Nice.
“Should’ve k swaped that thing” 😂
the excitement of seeing a new gears and gasonline video :D
11:33 Absolutely spat my drink.
Hahaha, Jimmy Diggs is the driver we didn’t knew we need
If K-Swap Ben reads this, you know how you put the black vinyl over the 'grill' area to make it look less aggressive? Maybe more around the intercooler hole could make it look better. Thoughts?
I got what you mean, the radiator hole right? because Ben's civic is naturally aspirated so there is no intercooler down there.
Maybe just put a normal grill in it to reduce drag in the front at the same time more air intake.
I like the way it is, it looks purely functional and that's what I love about it!
@@goosebee for sure! It's a great example of function over form. It's (imo) fairly unattractive with all that aero and wing but it's needed so I can forgive how odd it looks
@@shanebep3135 yeah! Same! :D

Awesome Video! Seeing this really motivates me to push harder in my track car and go try to win some races!
🔥👍🏼🔥👍🏼🔥
THE PRODUCTION QUALITY!!! you guys are freaking awesome. Narration, Recording, Backdrop, Sound selection. Keep it up Ben and Ben.
By far the best video on UA-cam, production quality knocked outta this world!! And love the jimmy digs content 🤣
Congrats Civic Ben! Nice job Evo Ben!

I've retired from TA so I love watching you guys build the cars up the right way as you progress as drivers!
You guys should do a video about how to get into Time Attack and the steps you guys took as beginners.
This channel year over year proves to be one in a million. One of the best channels on UA-cam for years now and it seems it's getting only stronger. Great job lads, your work is much appreciated!
Congratulations to both of you. You both have worked hard for these wins. And to Ben Thorn it was nice meeting you at the Beckley travel plaza.
perfect... we just got put into another lockdown here in sydney. so we don't need to sleep for work tomorrow!! we're playing catch up on G&G lads!!
damm the covid got transferred from melbourne to Sydney :/

@@spencerleland6772 we've also only had 910 deaths nation wide due to covid. so...
@@spencerleland6772 sounds like theyre handling covid way better than the us has, with republicans being anti mask and all
So awesome being there this year and getting it meet you prob said that like 5 times by now but the event was awesome I had a blast!
Every time I watch a Gears and Gasoline video I fall in love with cars even more. You guys are just awesome. And those cars are absolutely beautiful. Keep up the awesome work G&G
Episodes like this are what set Gears and Gasoline apart from every other youtube channel. These guys build and race their own machines.
Well guys I wasn’t sure I could enjoy your videos much more but this one proved you’re the best channel I know! So hyped to see how the rest of the season goes and you’ve found another loyal fan for life!
“Some fricking rotary spilled oil, I swear he should K-swap that thing” ya if he’s a heathen
He's a heathen for spilling oil from that antiquated engine of his anyway. I hope they hand out fines for oil spillers.
imagine wanting to swap a rotary car, what a disgrace, rotaries FTW
Fax, that's a SIN
@@josecueto1100 ikr, too bad Ben already did it with his rotory FD
You guys do a great job with this series, it's like an actual TV show, just wish you posted more of these.
At 15:15......yeah, the nickname "Spaze" fits him perfectly!
It definitely does! I received the nickname from gaming friends in high school and it's just stuck since.
Awesome to see the follow up on last season and both of you running the same event. Excellent kick start to the new racing season.
ive been following you for a while now and i absolutely love your channel, so much variety and each video has the best quality anyone could ask. it has been a journey and im loving it
This is the best car UA-cam channel (imo)
Love that competitive nature of it all! Congratulations fellas!
Great production quality. Love watching your vids
Guys, guys! You should post your best laps here. No music. Na chatting. Pure car sounds. Maybe a little commentary. Little editing. That's easy content. We love those kind of videos.
Brilliant work, gents! Well shot, well told, great driving and tons of drama! This kind of episode reminds us why we love cars and racing.
The quality of the video is just amazing!!!
Some of the best quality video on UA-cam !!!!! More please !!!!
I hope that you two keep producing videos for a while. I had your last video with you two together and my s/o sat down and watched the whole thing with me and at the end she looked over and said, “ Wow, I didn’t realize there were car youtubers that make it look cool, and not all ‘bro bro in your face’ type videos.”

Your videos are great on their own, but following your progress through the years really elevates the viewing experience. Congrats!
That transition at 16:27 though... :) good job videographer.
Thank you guys for always taking the time to make these quality videos. I can’t believe this is free content.
I'm currently building a car, 65' mustang to be exact. I'm not building it to be a track car but it does have track oriented suspension for the canyons. May need to take it to fontana speedway and do one of those autox events. These videos are truly great. Keep up the great work.
I think both cars are insane, and I appreciate them both equally.

Best channel ever, brings me up when im feeling down, keep it up guys. Much love.
One of the best things of every weekend, A Video from G&G. Absolutely awesome.
Absolutely one of my favorite channels here on YT
This was phenomenally produced and edited, well done!
Jimmy diggs looks like a fast and furious gag character lmao
Loved the edit on this video. Congrats on the 1st place Ben.
Thank you guys for showing your lows and highs! Great production quality overall! You are my favs.

Yet another outstanding video. You guys are just too good at this...
Great video boys! Looking forward to the rest of the season with you!
Think I found my favorite sport in cars, time attack never got my attention but I finally watched a video on it (this one) and I can safely say it might be my thing
I like the new seated commentary style this episode!
Both cars are putting in work especially ben with the evo
Can I just say that Ben's super saiyan hair is really growing on me ?
I will recommend quick jacks for the track. I don't know if you have them or not, but they are a life savior at tracks and they are great in the garage.
Great sportsmanship guys!
Awesome! Both also my favourite car!
That intro was FIRE!!
Man I was grinning like an idiot the whole video, looked like everyone had a blast, congrats to everyone for a successful weekend!
I'm getting sibling rivalry vibes between the Evo and the Civic.....
It was super great meeting you guys are this event
