    Sam, My wife an I were watching the stream. She can definitely tell you are more comfortable in this car. You hit the nail on the head. Take more time getting feedback before heading back out. Your progression is really improving. Its been fun watching you and Ruddy get better and better through the years. Keep it up!

    Congrats on doing your first round of FDJ1 ! Even without a qualification, the raw data collected from this round is imo pure gold and gonna be helpful for the rest of the season. I wish you the best for the next rounds. I'll be watching and cheering for you and Daiki !

    Sammit the OG S15 is looking incredible and sounds menacing 👌 also that opening drift clip amazing what an absolute tire shredder and i think you did phenomenal for your first time out with a new car 👍 keep your head up and youll be in that Winners circle and a Championship winner in no time keep up the great work 👍

  • @steve45
    @steve45 2 місяці тому +2

    The step up to FDJ1 was always going to be a big one. As long as you continue to see/feel the progression you need to take it as a win. Big leagues now! The judging looks brutal, seems like you have to be 100% on your A game at all times. So glad to see you learning and building on your skills. Better luck next round I'll be tuning in to watch again!

  • @chrishedger7341
    @chrishedger7341 2 місяці тому +2

    You need a full time hype man like rudnik on board this season. It was great to see him supporting you, and i can only imagine the impact it has on your confidence and overall mood. Keep it up Sammit! Were all here for you.

  • @riddlemethis01
    @riddlemethis01 2 місяці тому +6

    Hey Sam, you're driving a new car in every sense of the word, engine, suspension, brakes and steering. Cut yourself a little slack, we're all still riding with you just get to know your new platform.

  • @Guilherme4KFPS
    @Guilherme4KFPS 2 місяці тому +2

    Looks to me that your car lacks Rear downforce, maybe you could add a wing like James Deane S15, or an small tuck tail like Piotr Więcek that may help to equalise your car setup.

  • @stevierea70
    @stevierea70 2 місяці тому +2

    You have the car, you have the skills, you have the team support and, like you have eluded to yourself, all you need is the experience. Re: your mental state, you are a very balanced individual who’s mindset is one of having the want to learn, ask questions and be able to take criticism and then use that to improve.
    Overall, you have made the correct decision for YOU to race in this particular league and you will improve every single time you set foot in that car you have but.
    Brilliant work Sam and the team, onwards and upwards 💪

    Congrats, You have the right attitude to succeed, Thanks for sharing about being down on power. As an arm chair tuner and suspension guy I thought I saw you gripping up and the engine lugging more than I thought it would. I'm older and have excepted my reality, but I'm learning from watching and get enjoyment from that.

    • @duanebailey6253
      @duanebailey6253 2 місяці тому

      He had plenty of power. It was simply not enough seat time to get the line right. So he had to make adjustments. Happens to everyone though.

  • @BassManBobBassCovers
    @BassManBobBassCovers 2 місяці тому +1

    The car came out amazing! A lot better now that you built it yourself. Was very much a difficult layout. Not very intuitive and not the best conditions. Most everybody was getting 0's. Great course to learn and it perfect to dial in the car! 🙌

    Watched your 2nd lap Live - I'm happy to finally have the explanation... I was so confused why you got the 0. It looked great to me. I had only the Japanese commentary and I couldn't understand a word. Congrats on your first event, you look so good out there that I'm sure it won't be long before we're watching the recap video for your first podium!

  • @oldrcrich
    @oldrcrich 2 місяці тому +1

    I was fortunate to get to take a couple laps at Fuji speedway this past January in an R34....it was so deceiving the elevations changes in that area that it was hard to really know your speed. I'm a total beginner and it was scary as hell so for me to see the speed you were going, let alone to do it sideways it just incredible. I have a total new appreciation for your driving talent. Good luck with the rest of the year!

    You know who didn’t compete in FDJ1 anyone who’s complaining about you not qualifying. So stoked for you and your great success in not wadding up your car or blowing a 1000 hp motor you built with your own hands. Like seriously you built your pro car finally and no car problems at all like that so much of a bigger deal then qualifying at your first round. You were still hucking that whip around like a boss foot full down and the ass covered in smoke. Lets go sam

    Congrats on the seat time and progress! I had seen in another channel that you were in the same bay as Fausto and I was happy to see you both interacting. His S15 is insane. Looking forward to the rest of the season.

  • @frankbellemare88
    @frankbellemare88 2 місяці тому +1

    The real competition for everyone is to be better than what you were the day before . Your progression is amazing and cant wait to see the next one .
    I think you should either invest or find a sponsor for headset so you can talk with your team all the time for advice . Keep up the progression and cant wait to see that car with all the pony free with the good tune

  • @GanjaNinja

  • @teaddict-
    @teaddict- 2 місяці тому

    Your drifting has improved heaps since you did your first rounds in FDJ2, but I think by far the biggest improvements I've been seeing is how much stronger your mental game is getting. You seem way more relaxed and confident, and your outlook sounds way healthier. Like you were getting at, take your time and have fun with the journey, that's the most important bit after all, and don't worry too much about the rest, it'll come in time. :) Stoked to see you keep progressing!

  • @jono6379
    @jono6379 2 місяці тому +1

    Looked like a hectic track. You should see if okachan can set you up with a good chassis tuner and spend the day with them fine tuning the alignment to where it feels best for you. Can't wait to see how things progress and i know youll be on that podium soon enough😁

    Regardless Sam were proud of you, the progress youve made on the car is awesome, happy its feeling good out there. Better luck next round but we kno youll get it. The fact that Fausto didnt qualify for the first 3yrs at Fuji shows that turn is a make or break.

    @davidbarnsley8486 2 місяці тому

    Sam I haven’t watched your channel for some months and how things have changed especially ugo my he has grown
    But the car looks so different and the wheels look so big
    It did look like you were going so much faster
    I think you have improved so much , I do think they duped you on the last run
    I have no advice on doing that transition between stages ,it did look like lack of rear grip to push you forward instead of the sideways sliding
    Good luck on the next race 👍👍🇦🇺

  • @dhrida5518
    @dhrida5518 2 місяці тому +1

    For a fresh build I would say it wasn't bad, these small mistakes always seem counter intuitive to do the right thing, but eventually with time I think you will find out for yourself, you should focus now on seat time, get used to the car when it's grippy and when it isn't, look on the bright side, the car had no issues, maybe next year you will be able to qualify as you have more experience, but as I said if I where you I would focus on seat time...
