    I have 2 e36 chassis sitting in my driveway, you can have them cause I just dont have the time to work on them, 1 is already stripped 90% down and needs some sheet metal work, the other is prob closer 60% stripped but doesnt have as much rot on it

      I bet he could hang a Porsche from his wall cheaper, not that he can't afford to do it just that these are tools for racing and content creation at the end of the day, it isn't like he doesn't have 6 other e36s he could do all this again with if he wants another e36 comp car, at this level of drifting people go through more chassis than they do differentials.

      Even if he wanted to drive it, the amount of work necessary to get that car and Adam up to speed likely isn't worth the hassle in the grand scheme of things. He wasn't even originally planning on doing this many rounds, so going out of the way and changing his schedule to fit these recent Rounds was already pushing it.
      With everything Adam has going on and how late in the season it is, it wouldn't make sense.

    After Adam won the Riverside 50K with the BMW they were almost an unbeatable pair. It's been so amazing to see the car evolve over the years and get so extreme it ends up competing at the highest level possible! Even though blue is totally not my colorway choice, I really loved this car. It had such a great vibe and what a trooper taking all that abuse. My background in autobody tells me that car really is totaled. The amount of work it would take to repair might be more than starting with a fresh chassis. The orange S-15 is just chillin' there though! Bought a few shirts and hoodies from the shop, hope it helps!

    It's a real shame to see your best FD season end like this. But where there's no risk, there's no gain. As you say it's a game with fire and if we look at motorsport as a whole then drifting is certainly one of the sports with a higher risk of accidents. Hopefully the whole drivetrain didn't suffer too much from the crash. Another bit of experience gained, even if it's certainly not the kind of experience you want to have. Now focus on RIGA BABY!
