Larry Chen Visits The Greatest Drift Garage In The World: Daigo Saito | Capturing Car Culture
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2024
- Photographer and car culture legend Larry Chen, begins our series in Japan with professional D1 drifting driver Daigo Saito. Arguably the most talented professional drifter from Japan, Daigo Saito has competed all over the world. Not only did he dominate in Japan and many places in the East, with TOYOTA GAZOO Racing, and Fat Five Racing, he’s also done the same in the West. With so many accomplishments and titles under his belt, you’d think he’d call it quits, but he’s still quite busy running in two drift series and operating his drift shop. On this episode of Capturing Car Culture, Larry Chen guides us into the crazy world that Daigo Saito lives in, takes us to one of the most iconic Ferrari garages in Japan, and answers why he’s considered one of, it not, the best professional drifter in the world.

What Hagerty has been doing for car content online is almost unbelievable. Keep it up, amazing work!
This has been very true to me thru Jason Cammisi,Icon Series, and Jason's other Hagarty, series. Jason is up there with Chris Harris, but more entertaining, surpassing the guy that started the relaxed, I'm just like you driving a Sports Car. Everybody has Chris Harrisisms now a days.
But Jason has his own twist that is his own.
They've especially been blowing it out of the water recently
It's all Larry..I had no idea this was Hagerty
I'll be honest, this video is hilarious. Robbie speaking about Daigo as if he is dead while hes just chill in in the back 😂😂😂
You sound 12
I almost didn't notice him standing there!
I honestly thought it was a cardboard cut out of him
Reminds me of Raj Koothrappali from the big bang theory
AHAHAHAHA
Larry Chen is an amazing advocate for automotive enthusiasm. I'm glad you're working with him!
Not a collab i expected, nor did i expect Hagerty to showcase anything related to Daigo, but nevertheless - A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one ♥️♥️♥️
Damn I didn’t know Daigo had it like that. This man’s ambition is inspirational
Larry Chen + Hagerty!!! Let’s gooooo!!
I appreciate the support!
What Daigo does and builds says volumes, whether he speaks words or not. His work and his vision is his language.
Always great to see more Larry Chen content, keep up the great videos!
Lmao naah who cares
Super stoked to see Larry on Hagerty, always love his content
Seriously, I can’t hit the like button enough! Really looking forward to this series. Amazing content.
I bet lmao
@@zeze3305 bet what?
Larry’s photo of Daigo riding the guardrail at The Wall in NJ was my background for years and my inspiration to shoot formula drift. This video hits home
It was absolutely epic to watch in person. Daigo showed up with a car that could easily keep up with any of the fast v8s, and drove aggressive as hell. If there was even the slightest gap, it'd get closed.
The Soarer even sounded hungry as it did, like it was about to eat the other car for lunch.
Robbie Nishida also has some cool history at Wall. Robbie flew in, borrowed a car (they were calling it the Sil Camino) and took 3rd for a podium finish. That was in the early days of FD.
Well, couple of things:
1) Daigo is more American than 90% of current US generation
2) Seeing all Daigo's stuff in a country that basically owning a house size of a cubicle is an achievement absolutely speaks volume and is a testament to a hard work, passion and persistence to achieve goal.
3) There should be a warning put before the video starts that "your jaw could be shattered when hitting the floor"
Well actually japan countryside still got lot of open land, its only in big cities like tokyo that's crowede an packed as hell. The problem is when we think japan, we always think the big cities not the sub urban areas.
@@ardijanuar2036 i missed the bit where they said they filmed this in the countryside.
MINDBLOWING...........Like Robbie says, there is no competing if you want to collect this eclectic collection, Daigo is a visionary.........drifting an SC too........Unique and setting the bar higher!!
Thank you Larry and everyone who made this posible. Daigo is a legend
This is the longest drift car video I've watched with less than 30 seconds of cars drifting. Hands down the best one.
Glad to see the jump from hoonigan. Keep up the great work Larry.
This is truly impressive! Thank you for sharing this champion and his work.
Really loved this Larry and Hagerty.. Thanks for adding Larry guys, can't wait to see more ppl and stories! :D
Absolutely insane.. Daigo is a mad man and I love every minute of it. The glass building with the 3 ferraris and that Beasutiful diablo is awesome. You don't see too many red Lamborghini's.
loudest of all quiet people.... fantastic place/fantastic style... perfection to dream about
So rad seeing Larry and Dino hanging out! And congrats on the new sponsor, Larry! Well deserved.
Hagarty, grabs Larry Chen for a videos. Wow ,proof Hagarty is on the cutting edge of people enthusiasts ,follow !
Well done Hagarty and congratulations to Larry Master of the Lens of the enthusiast!
Larry Chen, Daigo Saito, thank you 🙏🏽
Awesome to see Larry find a new home and see him branch out more and more from Hoonigan. Congratulations on all you success and taking control of your hard work and content.
4:50 that ZR1 looks worthy of a feature when it's done. I haven't seen many people do much with the LT5 other than the handfull of ZR1s that Callaway built.
Thank you Larry for bringing us along. Daigo is so next level. 🤘
One of my favorite episodes Larry. I would have never believed this existed. Love how he barely said a word.
look up HENGS GARAGE, i promise you, you'll love it if you like this!
When I saw the first few seconds of the video, I thought it was an upload on Larry's channel
Larry is the Man behind the lens, Diago is the man behind the wheel, 2 Absolute legends & masters of their crafts
An absolute king among kings.
Legend himself is a man of taste
Great! Very inspiring! Daigo achievement is a new motivation to me. Good content Larry. Thx
Im still trying to wrap my mind around this the collection, the driving skill, kudos to him 👏🏾
Daigo is so cool! He builds incredible machines with so much persinality but he's such a reserved individual in front of the camera. Also, these are such incredible places lol
Hell yeah larry, hell yea. Thank you for capturing all of this for us
Larry you raised the bar on this one and now I will pick my jaw off the ground!
I respect this man..he drives and he works on cars..that's is the perfect circle when it comes to loving cars
Love it Larry, so glad to see you spreading your visions and art work...Been following you for about 7-8yrs now and love your artistic eye.
Larry you are awesome! That 😀 and 👍🏼 at the end was priceless. AMAZING VIDEO AS WELL. Jaw dropping, literally
I met Daigo years ago when he was competing at mondello in Ireland. I got him to autograph my admission ticket, thanked him and said wish I could have got him to sign part of my center console that James deane and others had signed but I didn't realise I would meet him so I didn't remove the plastic console and bring it with me, someone who was with him translated what I was saying and he took the time from what he was doing to walk to where I had my car parked and sign my console.
Even though he was super quiet he just came across as a really nice guy and very humble. Definitely one of the best in the game if not the best.
I love people who are good at something.
Daigo and Larry is such a dope and chill collab. Nice work guys. Picked up a sub
i got to meet Ken Nomura (Nomuken), the drift king Keiichi Tsuchiya along with a few others during my 25 years I lived in Japan and I would have loved to have met Mr. Daigo
Thank you for the tour Larry, Daigo and Robbie. Its awesome to see and very inspiring. I hope we get the chance to see Daigo come back to FD soon.
This exactly the video I needed to see about Saito. Now just to go see him drifting!
I saw Dino & Larry and had to double take what channel this was.
Larry is going from strength to strength 💪
Wowowo Larry Chen on hagerty! More content coming soon!? Greatt!!!!!!
Larry you absolute legend, thank you! 🙌🙌🙌🙌
couldn't click on this video fast enough..All the yes.
So damn awesome! Thank you Larry for sharing this with us. It's definitely inspiring to see hard work does pay off! ❤
Super ! Hagerty is helping the world 🌍 to see the automotive culture! From Taiwan 🇹🇼
I love how Larry Chen is the face of Hagerty coverage! Go Larry!
The drift scene is so sweet, chasing skills and technique instead of just numbers is a cool change of pace.
I hope Daigo can come back to the states next year for the 23 Formula Drift season since the borders are open finally.
Thank you so much for making this video. What Daigo has created is unbelievable!
This is one of the best car videos on the Tube....
Funny when Larry said Daigo were the same with Vaughn G when it came to how much they have and own. Then they arrive to another place with more toys and Larry's jaw drops. Daigo is in a level of his own! Damn!
I want to see the full length tour of this place. Wow! It’s like drift Disneyland
Daigo is a legend 100%
His drift Murci is fire 🔥🔥🔥
Two Legend in 1 Frame
god bless you guys Dino & Larry 🔥🔥
I came for Larry Chen. I stayed for the Dragonball Z reference in the beginning of the video. Congrats on the Hagerty colab Larry 🫡
Amazing video! Thank you Larry for capturing his story, need to go and find more about him and his racing. Cheers!
Larry is the man! great show!
What a legend. I love the series, Larry.
Larry, Thank you for saying it, 2012 never forget!!
This is so cool. Live seeing people do well. And this guy thinks outside the box to another level
Damn this goes hard. Hagerty, Larry Chen, Robbie Nishida, Daigo Saito and Dino Dalle Carbonare who used to work for Speedhunters the same as Larry.
I spent a day in the car with daigo and all he kept saying was “GOOD” with a smile and a fist bump then when I said goodbye he said “GOOD” with another first bump 😭😂😂
You are killing it Larry!!!!! Keep it up 👍
😭i was sooo blesssed to watch this!! Big thanks to him showin us this magical land of his thank you thank you from one car lover to another 🤙🏽
Larry it's so cool to see Dino and the Speedhunters connection is still there.
What a sick shop and display set up! Car guy goals
I've always loved his driving. But never looked into him. He really is the 🐐. Wow I'm mind blown.
The trophies messed me up. That's JUST from FD USA? Puts things into perspective. Dude is literally a Legend of the sport.
just stuck on a shelf, covered in dust , in a obscure room full of parts... like "yeah, thats something i did, anyway...."
OMG JUST SICK AS, HUMBLED AS, DOPE AS, BLESSED AS,🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is it! Great job! So much of of the USDM automotive shows are still 1950’s tech its nice to see something fresh and crisp.
The guy has more sick builds in his garage than I do in GTA
Larry and Robbie in Japan is exactly the content I want!
Great position for his shop in Tokorozawa. So many enthusiasts and mountain roads the neighbouring Hanno and Chichibu areas
Best Collaboration EVER I’m excited for the content!!!
This was the coolest garage/track I have ever seen!! It seems so unobtainable to achieve something like diago has, but I really hope to one day achieve my version of my own garage (and track? although unfathomable lol) this was truly inspiring, thank you for sharing!
He is definitely the future legend. So glad i grow up watching him from d1gp 2006 season
Larry I have been a huge fan of you for years! This is an amazing series! Looking forward for more content.
this is so great, can’t wait to see the rest of the series
What are we going to do tonight Hagerty?!?! What we do every night Pinky... Try to take over the world...
First, Jason Cammisa's Icons and Magnus Walker's The Big Thing. Now, Larry Chen's Capturing Car Culture... Is Hagerty putting together the '92 US Olympic Basketball team of car culture?! Thank God! Something amazing to drown out the continual message of "cars are dead"! Cars are not dead. We all will continue to preserve while we innovate. And the only way that anyone is going to take away my keys is to pry them from my cold dead hands.
Keep this up Hagerty. You have found a winning formula.
Awesome content for car lovers!!
Sick collection! Great stuff Larry!
DAMN LARRY!!! This is the Collab we've been waiting on 💪💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥
Great episode! Daigo Saito 👏👏👏🙌what a vision!!
Amazing. Just amazing
This was an amazing trip and story. Thanks Larry and Hagerty for getting together and I’m looking forward to more!
Amazing content… and it’s free! Thank you so much.
Love this series this was so good! Larry Chen and Hagerty are the perfect match.
I think the most mind blowing thing to me is.. how do you just START something like this from day 1?!?! Diago is a legend
Living the dream!!
I LOVE THIS MAN ! Truly was looking for this 🤙🏽
There’s a typo on the thumbnail, it is Daigo Not Diago
I like how daigo got screwed over by his team so now he’s like f it I’ll do it myself. Makes his own team getting ready to go back
what happened?
@@MistaaFrosty his first year in FD US he won. Then a buncha sponsors and “big people” hopped on trying to mod the car and do adjustments and every season with them was terrible. Now he’s coming back with his own team. It’s gonna be sick
