Idk where we go from here. We reacted to the drift king. Anything after is a dishonor. Jk lol who’s next?!
I have no idea
Noriyaro 🔥🔥
jack shanahan
Did you do Chelsea Denofa or maybe Collette Davis?
We did Chelsea yeah! He actually saw it even!
Being a car guy and not knowing Keiichi is like being in the rap game and yet not know who Eminem or the entire NWA members were.
Keiichi is a freaking legend who not only teaches drifting, he also races in JGTC and even at Le Mans and won it twice.
Not only that, the current format of Formula Drift that you have right now, it started from his competition-style championships before he made D1GP. He turned drifting international.
Besides, before his drift bible, he actually had an even older video that showed his skills called Pulpsy which he took his AE86 (Yes. The same one with the green carbon hood now. Imagine him having the car for that long). He even got his racing license suspended for blatantly violating regulations by filming a dangerous act on public roads (The touges). However, that got soo much fame that everyone started drifting because of that clip and soon, due to his fame, he became one of the producers for Initial D in its manga and anime form respectively.
Also, to boot, he too was one of the technical advisor for F&F Tokyo Drift. The fisherman you see at the pier fishing, scoffing at how terrible Sean was drifting, that was him. He too had a hand at training and pulling stunts for the show. Remember the whole scene of Sean trying to train on the mountains and failing? All of those "failed" stunts are done by Tsuchiya as he was the only ones out of the other technical stuntmen like Rhys Millen and even Tanner Faust failed to "fail" in style which, Tsuchiya had to step on the plate and he did it with relatively low reshoots per shot which even astonished the other people on set which, Tsuchiya mentioned that it was a hard task for him to fail too being naturally good at drifting.
Guy is worthy of god status let alone god.
The VHS video is called Plus P (+P) not Pulpsy. HTH
Being a racer and not knowing the Trueno be like
@Jun Kitami Not the greatest examples. More like not knowing who Melle Mel is, or Rakim.
and the fact that he stresses more on having two hands on a steering wheel while doing drifts is not proper? totally not in my book.
Without Keiichi I don’t think any of us would be pursuing this incredible sport and hobby so cheers to this man 😩😤👏🏻👏🏻
true
100%!
So true! I remember 15 years ago(damnn it's been a while), downloading the drift bible and trying to learn everything he was saying while I was playing Live for speed with my Microsoft sidewinder 180 degree wheel!
he got many insults with in Japanese racers back in the days doing drifts, but streets didnt
Without keichi initial d weren't real
Basically Tsuchiya made a name for himself racing in the mountains, got into professional racing and then started winning so much that he would drift corners to keep the race interesting. Talk about a flex.
A dude who was so good at racing he had to invent an extra hard mode for himself so the fans wouldn’t get bored of him winning all the time. And so drifting was born… 💚
“He’s the Drift King, that’s it no contest; he’s the OG of them all”
OGOG
Maybe not now but go back 30 years and Kunimitsu Takahashi is great contestant
@@googleuser6916 Kinimitsu was his inspiration
To me, this video points out how important it is, that whatever action you do in the car is done with purpose. Meaning, you don't shift unless you're gonna shift and you don't pull the handbrake unless you're gonna pull the handbrake. Which means there is no reason to have anything less than two hands on the wheel in between those moments lol.
100% OMG dude YES!!!!!!! Like thats thee best way to explain it. It helps you at all levels of driving.
The Drift king does not have rely on too much power to drift, he relies on driving techniques. Especially since he started drifting when even supercars mostly had less than 500hp, and there are not many drift-specific aftermarket components yet.
Now people can build 500hp K-swaps and LS swaps like it's nothing, and angle kits are readily available for purchase.
He also made the first Drift Videos ever, 1987 on VHS and got his Racing License suspended for it. He is the ultimate OG.
He's more a racing driver than he is a drifter. He got the nickname Drift King because he used drifting to be faster than the grip line on touges.
Absolute legend :)
Whatever title, that guys a king lol.
No it was because he was outrunning everyone in his racing series so he started drifting to get the crowd amped.
@@NoRealPotential Correct! @Ryth Stop spreading misinformation
@@FrosenHell You got a reliable sources on this? If so, I encourage you to modify the English and Japanese wiki pages on Tsuchiya with the proper citations, as they are currently stating exactly what I said.
Don't accuse people of misinformation without providing proof yourself, or your accusation is completely pointless.
Drifting is never quicker than a grip line no matter how tight nor twisty the course is. Keiichi would drift for the crowd when in front of his competitors to create more spectacle in the series he was racing in, he would almost be banned from racing competitively because of his extra-curricular illegal touge racing.
100% agree one of the best bits of advice I got when drifting is if your frustrated come off track and chill out for a few minutes then head back out
haugen should watch best motoring, and how intense their battles are
Aaron's got a couple of their dvds!
Tsuchiya and Orido-san battling on the Togue road never gets old and they do it in so many different cars.
@@HaugenRacing nice
He is my idol that's for sure. What he can do with everyday cars is legendary. He shows that you don't need a 600hp car just to have fun. And you can be fast even if you lack hp.
I think it's good to note that Tsuchiya was never a competitive drifter. He is a world famous racing driver who used to take corners sideways WAY back in the day and became known as the drift king. Yes he does drift a lot but afaik he never really did drift competitions, he was all about educating other people. He has a very respectable driving record and almost every japanese tuning garage wanted Tsuchiya to drive their car on the Option Video "Touge Tuner Battle" videos.
explain why he was never a competitive driver? he has quite amount of titles in his career.
@@pan17awa I didn’t say driver, I said drifter. AFAIK he never competed in D1GP etc.
@@SylasG ah my bad then, i misread that. yes, he never compete in any drifting events but he was the one who helds it at the first place.
Fun fact: he's raced in Nascar and did very well at suzuka in the 90's
He raced in almost every division except open wheel
@@dAbaPEsTA123 he raced in japanese F3 too
@@foxy126pl6 Wow, Tsuchiya never fails to amaze me
Won Le Mans class race
Hello! Welcome to Haugen Racing!!! For all who want a Steering wheel, upvote this for a easy way for Aaron and Matt to see the intrest.
Ahaha we got a lot of feed back in the last video man so we're looking into it a little!
@@HaugenRacing awesome!
you can find some old 90`s videos of keiichi , racing cars , not drifting ,but road racing,this dude is good everywhere
Happy new year everyone, can’t wait to see that 200K in 2022
We shooting for a milli dawg!! (Probs not gonna happen but it doesn't hurt to manifest it lol)
I was lucky enough to have a ride with him driving. He is really fun to talk to. And he stalled the car when we did a U turn which made us laugh. Just a honor to ride with him.
I think drifting modern cars with huge amounts of horsepower and rediculas angle is far easier than drifting low power cars. If you put half of today's formula drift drivers in an mx5/miata they would need a hell of a lot of practice before they could link even a small track
. Thats where a lot of these techniques really come in to play.
this is true
100% fact
That's why I can't watch the modern drift it's all based on power, 90+ degrees of angle and making holes and cuts in the whole car it's so pleasant to watch low power cars drifting and the whole technique involved
@@heavynlouder I completely agree !
@@heavynlouder watch tengku djan smash vaugh gittin jr! In his 86!
aside of style and cool factors, his drift was used for racing purpose (touge race to be specific). so the technique are somehow different from Formula Drift-like or D1GP
People don't understand the suspension and the chassis today is 1000% better than when Keiichi was riding. If you put half the drifters in an old model car they will not be able to do it.
i learned drifting with a g25 wheel, Live for speed and the video "drift bible".. later messed around in rwd cars in the wet.. and everything i learned in the game was kind of easyer in real life. (never been in a "real" drift car.. i imagine its easyer to start drifting in a drift preped car than a stock) oh and no handbreak usage only scandinavian flick and a kind of shift lock.
Maybe react to some of Drift King's professional races?
Feel like you lose your rythym when you spin out. Thats why its best to just chill out and start over
Totally! Like yeah once your line is messed up because of a spin out its just near impossible to regroup super fast. 100% agree with what Keiichi said!
Kunimitsu Takashi is considered as the father of drifting. Tsuchiya popularize it. Tsuchiya's drift with only 3 pedals and almost zero countersteer is a sight to behold. He doesn't even need a handbrake to initiate a drift. Just good ol' heel and toe. Slip angle is subtle but a car do slide. The speed is in km/h though.
one of a legend! Keiichi Tsuchiya!
Ive never commented, nornlaughed so hard on one of tour vids, but omfg rhat comment about connecting cracked me up 😂😂😂🎉
do wish u had shown some clips from Pluspy since it is the precursor to videos like DC gymkhana and Pluspy is actually just a rly beautiful video.
Thanks to Tsuchiya i've learned to drift and race in games. Racing games or just games like GTA.
He's a King, a revolutionary
Master Tsuchiya is not OG.
But GOAT.
Greatest Of All Time
INTIAL D anime is about him bro...
DAMN I JUST SAW THIS TODAY! love your vids hope your 2022 goes great godspeed man!
He is the King of Drift! He is was and always will be the godfather of japan drift and he is also a much much important driver for the awesome japan gt series
The ae86 he was driving in the 2018 video is a grip car
Yeah we found that out like right after filming lol.
The feels on this video, maaan it takes me back to when RJ Devera was the Boss when it came to JDM sht in the US lol
If anyone not knowing the DK if you are into drifting is so unbelievably crazy, let alone being a pro?? We live in an age of UA-cam and all. DK doesn't need handbrake, slippery track, 1000 hp, all that jazz to drift.
Menh that soundtrack is funny as hell😂😂😂
Tsuchiya is the drift king of course. However Yoshinori Koguchi (OG Japanese professional driver) has got to be one of THE smoothest drivers i've ever seen. Especially the old videos of his 180sx when it was black, and some when it was later green. Back when big angle wasn't a thing and they drifted shallow, fast, and precise. A react to Koguchi drifting through the years from his old (i'm talking the footage came out on VHS Option videos) to his new stuff would be cool. He still drifts today too.
Also Kazama is another great OG Japanese drifter who's still doing it today (he owns that Green S15 that Tsuchiya is drifting in this video).
Tsuchiya raced at Le Mans and managed to get 2 Class wins
It’s funny a couple days before this video was posted I was watching Keiichi Tsuchiya vids and looked up ur name and his just to see if you reacted to him. A day or two later and here we are 😂
That AE86 has 200hp NA and 5th gear is actually a 3.5 so his shifting pattern might look weird
The thumbnail pic is Beau Yates' hachi from Australia just an FYI @HaugenRacing
Thanks for sharing this legend with me. I need to spend some researching drift history.
Hey matt, if you see this, the video is on youtube. Its called Haugen racing then and now
Car Prime released a video a couple days ago at the age of this comment of him comparing Old Vs New drifting, with him eventually driving a modern drift car. Should check out!
ua-cam.com/video/zCJ8J9_dJ8g/v-deo.html < < <
His generation of drifter never used handbrake and also only used lower hp cars as they were often their daily cars and they'd drift in dead of night
A true legend
He not one of the ogs he is the og he created drifting himself
Should have said that instead lol
Great to see this guy on your channel!
He made a video 6 months ago where he drifts a modern drift car
RJ De Vera is a Filipino OG on car tuning. Didn't know he has video with DK Tsuchiya
When me alone in touge: Someone in the back drift and race me is the guy from this just like initial d
I love your videos and your channel😍💥... i hope this year you will achieve 250k at least!
Damn bro love these videos!
epic stuff ...weird coincidence that i re-did the AE86 on Car X yesterday as a 1-2-1 copy of his personal one
Ooooooooo *inception noises*
@@HaugenRacing 🙀
Back in 80s and 90s he always doing street racing in Mount road
You dont see the most epic part of the drift bible, DK drifting MR2. Mid engine car drifting is a thing. He drifts 911 to but with rear engine in other videos. But the most crazy video is one in mountains with a rusty nissan sunny with s2000 engine i think i dont go more than 40 with that even in straight line.
Anyone that knows drifting needs to know about the drifting god
You should really watch the Drift Bible. It’s a very well put together video. Dynamics are discussed in detail.
Got to love that thumb nail KT driving Beau Yates ae86
Hey Haugen, I've been watching you since you had 35k subs, and have been enjoying it thoroughly. Because of your videos I have decided to buy a sim wheel and learn drifting on the sim then take it onto real life. I have a g29 in mind, because my budget is a bit strict, what stuff should I buy to start drifting? Thanks!
Hydro and assetto corsa
he jus made a new vid of him drifting a new updated drift car look up "drift king old vs new drifting" it will pop up
isnt he the guy from tokyo drift talking to his friend when he sees sean practice
(ik keiichi lol)
Good stuff I'm learning to drift my Toyota Altezza 3sge beams, need new tires already :)
Helmet? Roll cage? This OG was doing this in the streets of Usui back in the day
Loves the videos, not sure if you know of him but can you do a video on Luke Fink from Australia. His style is awesome
Nice love your vids!!!
Glad you like them!!! Thank you so much for watching!
@@HaugenRacing thanks and wsh me luck and all the other people in the give away
You should react to pukekohe raceway 200kmph drift entries
broo I live like 30 mins away from there, haven't been irl yet but I've seen some of the vids and they're insane
@@nerd888 lol same I live about 30 minutes away too
on the spedometer its in kmh
The skillful drifting is clutch and brake and accelerator style rather then E brake
KEIICHI JDM DRIFT KING !!
Hey! I really enjoyed you're content recently. I have a car pack suggestion for you're Assetto Corsa Videos. The QDC Car Pack, I think you should try the RX& FC and MX5 ND those are some dope cars.
Tsuchiya-San is THE MAN
question someone please answer everyone says sliding isnt drifting and you have to connect your sliding for it to become drifting all he is doing is sliding but not
connecting but my question is why do people say you have to connect if he doesnt
There’s a lot that goes into it man. Like a lot is preference/ opinion but realistically if you can control the drift even in like a donut and make it like GOOD and controlled. Your drifting 🤷♂️
@@HaugenRacing thanks matt this really fucked my head, but u cleared it up good luck in fd
Even his grip driving is unreal, his talent is far over looked
Even his grip driving? What do you mean, he won at Le Mans... His grip driving is at least as good as his drifting
@@Shadowboost I mean his grip driving (circuit) is amazing
You need to do running free 86 reaction video kaicho is nuts !!
try the slide boizz car pack on assetto corsa
Definitely my favorite
The drifting is crazy I bought a drone and want to learn how to record while using my Fpv drone
My prized possession is my bride sticker signed by him framed hanging on my wall
Have you reacted to Darren Kelly???
Tsuchiya San not made japanese driving culture as know Drift,but tsuchiya san first person was populered this drift to around the world and started at japan nasional drift championship as know D1 with Inada daijiro. I forgot seen a articel about drifting it was made at mountain but with motorcycle by professional rider.
Hail to the King!
SICK VID. If you get a chance do Nomuken 🙏🏾
Bow and start praying to the DRIFT GOD
"Pro Drifter Reacts to Drifting Jesus"
There, fixed the title for you lol
Man he keeps saying all this mistakes but he forgot that drifting was actually founded by a Japanese driver not American person.
The salaries of Drifters in the US range from $19,770 to $44,310 , with a median salary of $27,880 . The middle 60% of Drifters makes $27,880, with the top 80% making $44,310. That's sad.
can you react to LUKE FINK?
I imagine most of today’s drifters with huge gp cars couldn’t drift like him in low horsepower cars with his technique
Time attack is better if you get a corner to fast overstear it and you are able to drift . But by drifting you will be slow and you will be scared do drive fast
Keiichi also won the 24hrs of Le Mans in the famous Toyota GT-ONE.
He is the technical director for Initial D
The Co-Founder of D1GP
And the only man so fast, he was banned from AE86 N2 competition because he was so dominant in Fuji Freshman Series, he started drifting to entertain the fans because they knew he was going to win. The Racing Body decided he was too dangerous
He has won TONS of races in tons of cars. He was never a competitive drifter just always did it for fun and to educate. He's an amazing grip driver on par with any top level driver. Maybe not today as he's aged but in his prime he was one of the best drivers any team could hire.
@@SylasG I Agree. His focus was racing, and he mostly did drifting for fun. The reason he is such an amazing drifter and racer is he’s dedicated to mastering driving in as many disciplines as possible. A True Master Craftsman. I’d argue, that if given the chance, Tsuchiya could have been on par with the great F1 drivers of the era like Senna, Prost, Mansel, Schumacher.
Despite me being a little bit critical with People calling themselves "ProDrifter" in every Video...I see a few substencial problems in this Video.
1st: You suggest for American beginners to start with power Oversteer. General understanding in every aspect of motorsport training I have wittnessed is to first learn decelerating methods because of the simple fact that if anything or everything goes wrong, the Student at least is already decelerating. Especially in Drifting no one should start with accelerating practices because till someone untrained realizes that he/she has lost control its way to late but he/she has worsen the situation drastically by standing on the throttle till that point or even after the first impact. I think everyone who is on a track regularly can share a story of someone already crashed but due to shock or simple denial of the Situation still standing on the Throttle.
2nd: At 5:30 Tsushiya is describing initiation by Gearlock or shiftlock. What you are talking about at that point is increasing transition speed by applying brake which is a totally different technique and status of driving not a "similar version of that" what you were stating. This of course can be simply gone wrong in the edit just wanted to point out that it does not fit to what Tsushiya was explaining.
Lowkey, if you havent look at the slap train, do so. He sim drifts and every now and then he does it in his infinity
We've reacted to him on a older video!
Alright
THE GOAT!
how do you build a volvo 850 4d into a race car and fit a turbo/supercharger on an enggine
100hp drift gang
If you don’t know this man you haven’t watched Tokyo Drift
He's the father of drifting
imaagine him driving a d1 car but still without any hydro lol hahhahha
Nah that name pronounciation is horrible man ahahahaha, but loved the video thanks!
