Jimmy, sell the E36 and turn one of your other 240s into a replica of the black S13. Make a red one with black seats like a negative of your current one. It can be pretty but not your baby and you can give it 100% on every run. It’s obvious you’re at one with an S13.

@@Ajaystylez wow! Didn't realise competing in drift comps and drifting your cars weren't the same thing, hur durr. It's all the same shit, being scared of crashing gives the same result as doubting your own abilities.spending more time in the car than under other ones IS driving more.
Jimmy definetely should do some seat time events in e36 without the pressure of comp, to feel the car out. Would love to see what he can do in the comp with a properly set up 36 which he feels comfortable in, also great for tandems with Grant.
When I played semi-pro football I had a coach tell me one time that it's natural to get nervous about things you care a lot about. The trick isn't to try and stop getting nervous, because your fighting natural reactions, it's to learn how to care more about having fun and improving than trying to prove something. That way the pressure isn't so high in your own head, and makes it much easier to just perform and accept the good and the bad as an experience to build on and make the next one better.
I can't say it enough. SPOON is the fucking man. Does his job at an extremely high level, great attitude at all times. And knows the nature of his work. Builds a show quality front end and refreshes the coupe to a new level, and is happy to see it used and abused. No crying about slaps and or tickles. Took Jimmy's channel (and his driving by being able to focus on it and not the car) to a whole new level!
Sometimes your worst enemy is that little guy in your head, seat-time will take care of him... Jimmy's still killin it and knows that even the best drivers have those kinds of moments too. Were all out here living vicariously through his content/progression and loving every minute of it! 💯
Man, you have to stop worrying about how many people are on the stream and how many are gonna watch the vid...it's just you and the car! We all know you have the skills, once you have the headspace down...you're gonna be UNSTOPPABLE!
Hey jimmy! I totally understand how the nerves get to you during competition, I used to get extremely nervous during baseball. I would also get nervous when skiing and doing something out of my confort zone like a big jump or a cliff. But one time i saw a video where a guy was about to drop a chute and he was saying he was nervous, but then he told himself that what he was feeling was excitement not nerves and that he was psyched to do something as sick as what he was about to do. And from then on if i felt nervous about something i would tell myself that i was actually just excited to do this dope ass thing, and god damn does it work. I think this mindset trick may help you out during competitions! I hope you continue to preogress as a driver just as u did at Ebisu!
Yeah there's a big jump in chassis and suspension quality between a Silvia and an e36. The S chassis isn't actually a great chassis, theyre just super cool and used to be cheap. You can feel a huge difference even going to a Skyline. You're right, though. More seat time in the bmw and Jimmy gonna be doing big things
@@ae86hachi what are you talking about? Lmao no one is forgetting anyone.. Eric literally just said he wanted some spoon and Jimmy tandems. That’s all… not that he doesn’t want to see Brian at all like damn get ahold of your emotions my guy.
Man once you get past the comp jitters your gonna do awesome Jimmy. Your talents are showing even tho u didnt make it to ue show. Every time you drive in and out of comp your driving is improved so much!!!❤ hold your head up and keep going. Dont give up, you have what it takes...........
you did great jimmy and thank you for letting me meet you and take a pic with you truly meant everything to me so thank you guys. had the best day of my life to be for real
You definitely made us proud. We’re beyond hyped that you’re out there doing comps and working on improving. Love that you show when things don’t go perfect and you keep at it despite things not going as you expected. You’re driving has improved so much and you drove awesome. Don’t be too hard on yourself.
Jimmy no ones let down you shredded the tires off and are killing it. we are here to watch you progress and you will like you said keep doing comps and your only going to get better
I saw what happened on stream, your confidence was way higher at Ebisu, you need to try and get that stress level down Jimmy! Now let's watch the video 👌
After watching the video, Your confidence level raised 100% after your session with Rud! You were driving like a baller. Get more seat time, do more local comps and you'll get better at getting your 'choke level' down😅 Keep it up Jim!
You looked real good dude comps are just stressful. You are right though about just doing them to get better. Keep your head high and use that s13 the way ut was meant to be. Can't wait to meet you and the crew at Hyperfest this week hopefully 😊
I was at the LZ event on Saturday and your driving was phenomenal. I also went to your both a saw RJ and told him to tell you that your driving was absolutely phenomenal. You drove more aggressive and with more angle this years which was great to see your improvements. Your Japan trip with Grant help so much in your driving this year. I proud to see you driving like you should. Keep up the great driving. 👍🏼
As one of the guys from CT, that went down to catch the comp on Saturday, just getting to watch three car tandem, and watch everyone go nuts when threw the link ECU shirts to the crowd were well worth. Hope you had as much fun with the guys as I did just hanging enjoying the sick show ya’ll put on.
I think everyone I watched that went to the lz fest hit the wall. It's just the way the track is set up. Your riding the edge right next to the wall. I think you did excellent Jimmy! Keep up the good work. Best team ever!
You're a real one jimbo Love what you do man. Anxiety is a hard to to control sometimes behind the wheel but its another feeling that keeps me sliding. Killing it out there dude proud of you!
Dont stress the comp too much Jimmy. You and all of us know you got it in you to do well. Keep working on the nerves and youll be ripping for sure. Seeing you run just that one lap w frontsteet yesterday was amazing. Still so hyped you got out to etown to drive this one.
Hey Jimmy you held it down bro sometime we have good nd bad days. but you came thru "no homo" lol you had fun, showed support the crowd was hype to see you out there. You got this bro trust n believe from where you started to where you going is only UP much luv n respect. Shout out to Spoon & Austin for allowing my 1st gen rx7 to make it in video much luv fam and the rest of the gang that held it down. Steve my guy pleasure meeting you blessing bro.🤘🏻
Got the chance to meet Jimmy yesterday, honestly a great guy…the way he interacted with me made it feel like we were friends..we’re all proud of you Jimmy
You drove great Jimmy, don`t beat yourself down! Take the aero off both the S13 and the E36, get close to the walls with the bash bars, you need to find the limits of both cars.
I use to have the same anxiety when I raced quads but after a couple mins after starting I got in a good grove. Drift comps I can’t imagine how frustrating it is but nothing helps more than seat time! You will break the anxiety barrier soon and be killing it in no time! Ps you still need a S2k for spoon
Are you doing the breathing exercise before you start the comp ? Helps me on the way to the starting line. The 2 second rule one works where each action of breathing takes 2 seconds inhale (2seconds) ,stop(2 seconds), exhale(2 seconds), stop(2 seconds) inhale and so on. do that for a minute or 2 and it really helps .
Jimmy, you didn’t let us down! Please don’t be embarrassed! The most embarrassing thing would’ve been not giving it all, but you did! You just sent it and it turned out to be a little too much! Some drivers would have been super safe when anxious, but you kept sending, which is the most important aspect of every sport and competition. Olympic athletes train themselves to accept anxiety and fear as something positive and exciting, but it only comes with lots of competitive experience. So just keep at it! Everything is great!
The 1j coupe is your car man. You seem like two different drivers behind each car, but definitely the better driver comes out of you in the s13 coupe. The 1 j is and will be a motor for you. It sounds weird to see you not behind the wheel of one. Love you man and just congrats at life!!!
You’re really hard on yourself…. It’s tough to watch. Only because I have a 5 year old who is super tough on himself when he feels like he doesn’t do perfect at anything! You are the man Jimmy, nobody expects you to be perfect all the time, we appreciate you for the real~ness you share with us. My son and I haven’t missed a video in years, and even he says how you are tough on yourself…. You have major wins in life, I hope that you can absorb those the way they should be. You are a hell of a human man…
keep ur head high jimmy those practice runs were amazing and it shows the talent is there the nerves will get better the more u compete and then we will see u on fire driving the shit out of the car like we all know u are capable of
In no prep racing we all draw chips from a bag. there's a blue set and a red set, so if you're blue number 1 you run red number 1, no qualifying. You just get to race you're way to the top and it's always random who you run. The world tour would be better, a lot of guys are great lead and follow drivers but panic in solos. And if the tour is 80% having fun that'd be the move. You killed it as always Jimbo, as long as you enjoyed it.
You are not letting us down. You were so in the zone while you were in Japan, so close your eyes and remember those Grant runs in the morning when you are on the start line. Put your head in a great memory and let your body do the run, you got this. Are you going to be in Canada? My hometown is an hour and a half from Toronto, so I will be there and would love to say hi
God dude, you got me developing new nervous ticks with every fire ass first corner entries you do. You are legit so good, it's just the damn competition anxiety and I feel for you just don't think your are letting any of us down! It will come with competition experience man, for now just enjoy the seat time, the drifting with homies and the production of the best content out on UA-cam. Best of luck out there !!!
Don't be hard on your self. That might be the thing that's affecting your driving. You got the driving skills already. Just have fun. Less tension. As always, love your videos.
I don’t drift so can’t speak to that aspect, but with the nerves - just remember you don’t control the outcome of the judging, all you control is how you show up. So stop worrying about the outcome and just worry about having fun and killing it! You are doing great.
you killed it man, and thank you for being so cool and saying whats up to me on friday night. if anyone watching this has not gone to an event in person yet you HAVE TO. its one thing to see these guys ripping on the screen, but its a whole different animal seeing them shred in person. and not only seeing it, but hearing it, and feeling it. every pop and bang you can feel in your chest, its just epic.
All of you guys are doing an amazing job Jimmy keep turning up as the years have passed, and we have been entertained by so many of different platforms. It’s hard not to get caught up i’m wanting to build something legit, but we see you let’s fucking go never disappoints always on your a game💯🏴☠️🏁🇵🇷😎
you progressed a ton man, just need to get the seat time in the E36 and dial it in. Making a dialed car boost your confidence sooo much driving. Keep up the hard work dude and see you at final bout! (I'll be staffing with the clubFR guys.)
Jimmy you got a great gospel of ppl on your side and in your team and spoon is proud of you and is happy you drove your ass off. Also its apart of drifting sometimes things happen and you saved it. You and booth awesome coutcome.😊
Dont kick yourself what so ever, you are doing great, ur team are there for you and will support u through every tap, every bumper removal, the car can be repaired, make everyday a funday and enjoy ur progress, oakes garage ftw
Also thoughts on a different steering wheel and gloves when you drive the coupe. I have a wood grain and I know they can be alil hard to grip when your hands get sweaty.
Jim I know how much you love the uniqueness of the e36 for the RHD but a LHD e36 would do wonders for you IMO. They are such good cars and you are way more accustomed to that side of the car. Would love to see that happen one day!!
Love to see how everyone is proud of each other! super wholesome and stinks i missed meeting all of you and Cuchara but theres always next event! Remember the scratches and all give the SILVIA CHARACTER
Jimmy don’t be so hard on yourself because it’s taking away from your learning curve and growth!!! Your doing fantastic your making GOOD PROGRESS and staying being the same old Jimmy through it all which is what WE want ❤
Vistaril. It’s an antihistamine. It will calm your nerves without making you drowsy or slow or affecting your driving. Maybe you should give that a try, Jimmy. I get it from the VA because I hate anxiety meds. It calms my nerves without side effects.
You can tell how hard he is on himself. Spoon doesn’t help the situation at all, he has a dark energy about him. Keep your chin down and keep moving Big Jim G.
Damn proud of you Jimmy, im so in love with the e36 but the s13 looks and sounds so good and youre so comfortable in that car. Keep doing what you do, get better and im sure you'll get over the stress ❤
You're coming along nice, nerves can either be calmed or cant. You can ebisu hard af against a wall all day, therefore you are more than capable anywhere here in the US. Keep at it young brutha, you'll find your green room and thought will cease to exist as soul takes over.
Man jimmy your way too hard on yourself. We heart you brother. Just keep driving and building. We don’t care if you win. It would be great and we’d all be stoked for you but just driving the bada$$ cars you’ve built in the LZ world tour and sharing it all with us little people is more than enough. ✌️❤️🍻
E town was sick! My first drift event. Bought my first merch of yours. Really wanted to talk to you and the gang but it was so hectic didnt wanna be that guy. RJ & steve were killing it at the booth, smooth transaction RJ thanks! Didnt get to see Spoon tho which was a bummer. Sincerely the only person wearing a F1 REDBULL shirt 😂
Jimmy you definitely didn't disappoint us! Your getting better everytime you drive! Its drifting it happens we all know this! You could tap wall every run you'd still be my favorite driver and youtuber. Lol You and the gang are unstoppable. THANK YOU for taking time and saying what's up to all of us. Keep up the great work and don't ever give up!
Jimmy you should think about doing that 8.8 swap in your e36 like bhall did in his e46. I feel like it could it open up a lot more gear ratios compared to the e36 rear ends.
Some people are made for comps, some people aren't. Pressure works different on everyone. I know people who need pressure to perform and they transform under pressure into whole different people. Meanwhile I crumble under pressure. 😂 It is what it is. Don't let that keep you from having fun! :)
We all know you got the skills Jim! we seen it countless times on videos. Just keep getting some more comp seat time and we all know you’re gonna only get better!!
Jimbo don’t worry about my guy you just came off of a dub like last week your progress is fucking insane and your knowledge is even more insane and the team you have build is unbelievable spoon is the man wish I could Of made it
Still did great, just keep improving it will come. Next time you're getting in your head go need to get Grant to give you a pep talk. Just like from Japan, he's the best kind of friend that wants to bring you up.
Hey Jimmy, more you drive more you will learn in a competitive sense. Was listening to Smoking Tyres podcast with Vaughn have you ever thought of playing music in the car whilst you compete?
Feel like Jimmy needs to make the e36 a bit faster especially if he wants to compete at a higher level. He's too worried about getting left behind and therefore taking worse lines to compensate. However that Ebisu trip did him well.
Use code JIMMYO40 to get 40% off your first Factor box at bit.ly/3Lfpjuu!
best factor commercials!!
You should try gloves when drift maybe it'll help with wheel control but you absolutely killed it
Still a buster..
Jimmy, sell the E36 and turn one of your other 240s into a replica of the black S13. Make a red one with black seats like a negative of your current one. It can be pretty but not your baby and you can give it 100% on every run. It’s obvious you’re at one with an S13.

Why? He has like 9 Sylvia/240SX in his garage. He’s been torturing himself over this one issue for a few years now. It seems crazy to let something like this hold him back when he has the solution(s) sitting in his garage but that’s what we humans do sometimes.

Loved the Chaser, but keeps wanting to drive the show car.

you killed it man, and thank you for being so cool and saying whats up to me on friday night. if anyone watching this has not gone to an event in person yet you HAVE TO. its one thing to see these guys ripping on the screen, but its a whole different animal seeing them shred in person. and not only seeing it, but hearing it, and feeling it. every pop and bang you can feel in your chest, its just epic.
Need to put together a Drift Chaser in the U.S. like your Ebisu Chaser.
Jimmy you’re so relatable in comp. Most of us aren’t pro drifters. I love seeing the progression!
All of you guys are doing an amazing job Jimmy keep turning up as the years have passed, and we have been entertained by so many of different platforms. It’s hard not to get caught up i’m wanting to build something legit, but we see you let’s fucking go never disappoints always on your a game💯🏴☠️🏁🇵🇷😎
you progressed a ton man, just need to get the seat time in the E36 and dial it in. Making a dialed car boost your confidence sooo much driving. Keep up the hard work dude and see you at final bout! (I'll be staffing with the clubFR guys.)
Bro Jimmy, the positivity is great man ! If you ain't nervous you ain't trying so keep it up g. Love from NZ
Patreon gang 🤙🏻
Jimmy you got a great gospel of ppl on your side and in your team and spoon is proud of you and is happy you drove your ass off. Also its apart of drifting sometimes things happen and you saved it. You and booth awesome coutcome.😊
Dont kick yourself what so ever, you are doing great, ur team are there for you and will support u through every tap, every bumper removal, the car can be repaired, make everyday a funday and enjoy ur progress, oakes garage ftw
Also thoughts on a different steering wheel and gloves when you drive the coupe. I have a wood grain and I know they can be alil hard to grip when your hands get sweaty.
Jim I know how much you love the uniqueness of the e36 for the RHD but a LHD e36 would do wonders for you IMO. They are such good cars and you are way more accustomed to that side of the car. Would love to see that happen one day!!
Love to see how everyone is proud of each other! super wholesome and stinks i missed meeting all of you and Cuchara but theres always next event! Remember the scratches and all give the SILVIA CHARACTER
Even if it is rigged, it’s the battle we all love to see. Wish I got to Etown this time, I’ll definitely try to be there the next event the crews at
*Shout out to the 4dr Drift Taxi 2nd Gen Gs300, one of my most favorite cars of all time*
Jimmy don’t be so hard on yourself because it’s taking away from your learning curve and growth!!! Your doing fantastic your making GOOD PROGRESS and staying being the same old Jimmy through it all which is what WE want ❤
Vistaril. It’s an antihistamine. It will calm your nerves without making you drowsy or slow or affecting your driving. Maybe you should give that a try, Jimmy. I get it from the VA because I hate anxiety meds. It calms my nerves without side effects.
You can tell how hard he is on himself. Spoon doesn’t help the situation at all, he has a dark energy about him. Keep your chin down and keep moving Big Jim G.
Damn proud of you Jimmy, im so in love with the e36 but the s13 looks and sounds so good and youre so comfortable in that car.
Keep doing what you do, get better and im sure you'll get over the stress ❤
Youve killed it as a driver lately don’t feel down jimmy. Just gotta work on positive grid talk. You’re growing a crazy amount as a driver.
You had a great time and thats the memory you keep Jimmy. Keep on shredding ❤
Booth is such a good dude. Keep at it JIM. All things come with repetition. Good shit brother.
so awesome seeing you this weekend jimmy awesome uploads as always!
You're coming along nice, nerves can either be calmed or cant. You can ebisu hard af against a wall all day, therefore you are more than capable anywhere here in the US. Keep at it young brutha, you'll find your green room and thought will cease to exist as soul takes over.
Boom Patreon gang well done on the comp shame coupe took few war scares but everyone was ok.
Man jimmy your way too hard on yourself. We heart you brother. Just keep driving and building. We don’t care if you win. It would be great and we’d all be stoked for you but just driving the bada$$ cars you’ve built in the LZ world tour and sharing it all with us little people is more than enough. ✌️❤️🍻
E town was sick! My first drift event. Bought my first merch of yours. Really wanted to talk to you and the gang but it was so hectic didnt wanna be that guy. RJ & steve were killing it at the booth, smooth transaction RJ thanks! Didnt get to see Spoon tho which was a bummer. Sincerely the only person wearing a F1 REDBULL shirt 😂
Jimmy you definitely didn't disappoint us! Your getting better everytime you drive! Its drifting it happens we all know this! You could tap wall every run you'd still be my favorite driver and youtuber. Lol You and the gang are unstoppable. THANK YOU for taking time and saying what's up to all of us. Keep up the great work and don't ever give up!
Jimmy you should think about doing that 8.8 swap in your e36 like bhall did in his e46. I feel like it could it open up a lot more gear ratios compared to the e36 rear ends.
Great progress jimmy honestly, the nerves happen just need more seat time and you’ll be killing it!
Just keep practicing and refining the cars. Mistakes are made in the process. Keep giving it you're best.
Your new name chosen by the lz world tour livestream is JIMMY CHOKES
Pressure is real at these events. Massive respect for you buddy ❤
Nothing but love from the Netherlands
Proud of you guys and what have done and what your doing!
SUNDAY UPLOAD?!
Letsssss Goooooo
Sorry about the damage on the S13 hope Spoon isn’t too bummed
Some people are made for comps, some people aren't. Pressure works different on everyone. I know people who need pressure to perform and they transform under pressure into whole different people. Meanwhile I crumble under pressure. 😂 It is what it is. Don't let that keep you from having fun! :)
Jimmy’s a real drifty boi this gives me so much serotonin seeing the bois having fun
Jimmy O's comment section is awesome and positive, love to see that
this event was dope, im so happy it was just an hour and 30 min from me. love love love this event was sooo fun
We all know you got the skills Jim! we seen it countless times on videos. Just keep getting some more comp seat time and we all know you’re gonna only get better!!
Proud of you jimmo, Staying outta your head is easier said then done. If you had fun, that’s all that matters
Jimbo don’t worry about my guy you just came off of a dub like last week your progress is fucking insane and your knowledge is even more insane and the team you have build is unbelievable spoon is the man wish I could Of made it
What we also need is a Steve edit with the old school camera vibes! Nostalgia
Still did great, just keep improving it will come. Next time you're getting in your head go need to get Grant to give you a pep talk. Just like from Japan, he's the best kind of friend that wants to bring you up.
"I've written both cars off" That's the right attitude, Spoon!
Should play some music in grid through coupe stereo, Turn the nervous energy into pumped up ready to go energy.
Hey Jimmy, more you drive more you will learn in a competitive sense. Was listening to Smoking Tyres podcast with Vaughn have you ever thought of playing music in the car whilst you compete?
Get it done driver. Everyone is cheering and happy for your success.
Feel like Jimmy needs to make the e36 a bit faster especially if he wants to compete at a higher level. He's too worried about getting left behind and therefore taking worse lines to compensate. However that Ebisu trip did him well.
