Hey Steve, thanks for the shout out. I gave you the unit patches @13:37, I'm currently stationed at RAF Lakenheath with the 493rd FGS and wanted to let you know there are a few of us out here that REP Oakes garage on our cars/clothes and watch you guys in the breakroom when were not turning wrenches.
Do burnouts in a vehicle! Thank you for your service.
Was looking for this comment! Thankyou for your service, Grim reapers are some bad mf’s🤙🏻🤟🏻
Respect to the RAF, my dad was a Plumber in the air force for years.
Thank you for your service, bud. Jimmy and crew, the love is real.
That was sick!
Momma Oakes has to be on a different level of proud. Jimmy kills it everytime so hyped for this team.
Bro he goes so above and beyond I could only imagine how blessed she feels. And getting to be RIGHT there ! Makes me miss mine so much. I'm just glad jimmy goes out of his way like this to include her not only on the journey but the channel too. Such a special thing and I look up to Jimmy so much for that
She prob is and she definitely reads these comments too. ✋hi mamma O !
love her - her energy is outstanding
From mommas garage to Oakes International is crazy
Her son just flew her and the whole crew to Ireland to compete on the world stage. I can only imagine her pride in jim
I'm with spoon. That was some of the best driving I've seen Jimmy do. Maybe he should turn one of his S Chassis into a pro spec level car. He might just surprise us all.
His 240 isn't that far off, having that 2jz in it..
@@davidfloener7539i think its 1jz
@@davidfloener7539 and a full tube front end by one of the wizards of fabrication to boot...
@@thatdriftlife7629 It is a 1j, but with jimmys stockpile of s chassis', the possibilities are endless.
as Dave said during the livesteam: I might see a future thumbnail coming up "I bought a pro spec S-chassis'
The support you receive from your friends and family speak volumes of your character. You’ve stayed the same over the past 6 years. You’ve been able to share your successes and experiences with your crew. It’s been that way since helping your friend to build their car in a cramped shop to taking your friends to Ireland. I’m a lot like that too and knew all your hard work would pay off.
It’s literally the coolest thing to watch all these years. And ever since that long Japan trip and non stop driving, his confidence is so much better and there’s no more overthinking and being in his own head 👌
Right? I watched the how to on shaving the Z32 engine bay video from 5 years ago yesterday because I want to do a very similar thing to my Z31..(ahem kswap). Sometimes you don’t really see people grow as a person when you are watching videos as frequent as possible. Like a boiled frog lol. But if you ever go back to watch them you can really see and appreciate how much Jimmy and the team have grown over the years.
Especially happy that he and Steph have been together through it all. Such an awesome group of people.
With the love everyone has for jimmy and his crew from the crowds i can see them host their own event over here in the near future
Make this a thing RJ !! Pls ✌🏽🔥
Love how humble Steve is you really could see the gratefulness he was expressing 🤘🏽
Giving this one a huge thumbs up for Mama Oakes and Steph standing out in the crowd holding it down heavy for the squaaaaadddddd!!!!!! P.S. Steve + Austin + Spoon already the mf triooo with the vibes and then you add Randy in there = FUCKING EPIC 😂
such a wholesome video, you and the team absolutely killed it dude 🤝
Dude was rippin in that car. The recent practice and shift in mindset(taking it more serriously) really paying off along with all the RHD practice.
Great to see you comfortable in a borrowed car for once too. So glad you have the guys with you too.. Epic weekend made so much better no doubt.
As much as it would have been awesome to see you in the top 16 (or qualify top 13) I think the Saturday was the more fun day and that field was STACKED for the Sunday.
And I bet no-one ever leaves you at the line like that again like Kearney did.
For anyone not aware on that silver v6 mid engined Clio(probably U.S.).. It's stock 😅
That close out with the boys was soooooo perfect. Jimmy has a group of great friends around him. So heartening.
Jimmy's content is so 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Jimmy and the boys at oakesgarage killed it again keep doing what you doing boys!🔥🔥🔥
Huge respect to Jimmy for this level of driving. This year is definitely the one for progression. Stevie really feeling the vibe out there, so cool to see his passion for the fans.
Stevie! You and the whole crew do deserve it man! At least what we see in the videos, you all seem like genuine dudes. Which is what people want, keep it up everyone
Steve a real one. ☝️ Sabor Latino

All the Love and attention Jimmy and his crew get are proof of how genuine they come across as thru video and in person. It's well deserved for All of them
Best Oakes video I have watched; period.
I watched the live feed; jimmy’s driving was noticeably better than ever. The car just didn’t have what you needed in the rain. Above all, the appreciation and love from the crew at the end of the video was epic. You all killed it
Absolutely love everything about this Jimmy's mom Steph the bois and Jimmy's driving level just keeps growing so much love seeing the progression and travels and builds.
You were amazing Jimmy - Your skills and confidence are growing immensely.
This deserves more likes
Oakes boys killed it on this trip...so happy Jimmy make it possible for you all...just amazing
Imagine your "employees" being your biggest fans and best friends. Shows how you treat people 💯 good driving bro keep it up
Let's go!!!! Loving these 1am drops!!
Best driving I've ever seen you do Jimmy congrats!!! That car and you work super well together. Every zone was set it and forget it.
I only just started drifting in my ae86 and it absolutely blows my mind seeing people driving at this level. so cool to see.
Jimmy's driving was on fire! He should build a dedicated pro level driftcar for like clutchkickers and that kind of competition. He rocked. Love to see the Oakes crew all out there having fun. We love all of you guys, greetings from Holland
Jesus yall keep saying build a comp car comp car comp car have all of you forgot about the Beemer that he cant drive yet ? Damn that was supposed to be his big comp build but he supposedly cant drive it right or whatever but why build another comp car when he should be learning how to drive that one right instead of building more drift cars !
Love how at 14:26 Steve’s appreciating the fan love and one walks past hella chill with a peace sign and Steve spots his shirt 😂❤ we all family.
Steve talking about the whole gangs appreciation for the fans is exactly why we love you guys. Keep on killing it guys!
something about that car just worked for you, it seems, you were driving like a madman, so consistent and hitting the right spots every time. such a good watch
Vibes
I am so proud of your driving these past events in borrowed cars you showed you can throwdown. Keep it up Jimmy. Cant wait for the E36
Istg Jimmy needs this car back in the states, he did so well in this car
Jimmy and team, I think it’s time to lock in and focus on making a car for events like these. That way you’re already comfortable driving it and you don’t have to learn the car as you go. You have a lot of options, your garage is full of amicable cars. I only say this because it sucks when I see you drive your ass off but you fall short because of the capabilities of the car you’re driving.
this comment right here is 💯% real talk!🔥🔥🔥
That car is just set up really well his existing cars if set up as well to suit the tracks he drives he'll do the same.
True, he also seems to be worried about handling higher speed drifts, which is why he's always a gear low. They told him just leave it in fourth and it's fine, they built it, they tuned it, they know the cars potential. However Jimmy even said it himself in this video "maybe it's the insane wheelspin" which is due to him being in a lower gear than the car is built for optimally, meaning he wouldn't push himself out of his comfort zone.
I've noticed this years ago... It's the only thing really holding him back I think.
Another example is when tried to change the Ackerman... It completely changed the car because its not being driven how it's built to be, not an car error yet again jimmy blames ANOTHER car and not his own. He's not bad and I'm not better lmao I just feel like it's such an obvious and reasonable thing to be worried about, sending turns at angles in 4th gear speeds, but I think that's what it really comes down to.
If he was less on and off the throttle and had more precise control while in fourth, wheel speed can be controlled and the longer gear ratio wouldn't bog down because the engine is still getting fuel, just not as much, so naturally the wheel speed decreases, the lower the wheel speed/spin, the more grip you get.
37:14 "Adam doesn't lift" again he acknowledged the differences but can't get past the threshold... That's exactly what I'm talking about haha wow what a coincidence.
OMG Jimmy and Adam in full blown race cars in Ireland, look at our boys all grown up.❤ Fuckin amazing job Jimbo !
The driving, the vibes, jimmy birthday🎉🎉. You guys were awesome too Spoon, Steve, Austin🔥🔥🔥🔥
Damnnnnnn jimmy! Your driving is getting better and better every time you jump on track! Not even in your own car and you absolutely shredded Ireland! So proud of you and the gang. Keep it up boys!!!!
It was fantastic to see you all in person, such diecent people, at the meet and greet I came in like a drowned rat it rained so hard and Steve offered us an umbrella, all of you guys were so nice to us even though you were probably all exhausted, moma oaks was so prowd she was infront of us in the grand stand and when jimmy came by at one battle she looked around her and said, "that's my boy" it was so good to see you all, thanks for the fantastic experience.
One of my favorite uploads you guys have done in a very long time! I’m so happy you guys had fun you all deserve it! Much love 🖤
What a genuine group of good people, fire ass content Always. & Jim your becoming a monster behind the wheel. Much Love From Houston, Texas

Awesome Job boys! I love to see the crew out having a good time. The driving is getting better and better! Happy belated birthday Jim, keep Killin it!
Happy birthday Jimmy! You and the crew rocked it! I love the builds and the driving doesn’t normally hold my interest as much, but this was different and you could tell how much it meant to you all. Momma Oaks is a treasure! Do yourself a favor a build a weapon to drive in the USA to all these events, all you need is seat time. Much love from PA!
Jimmy and crew hear me out…. Grab a S14 RHD and take the JZ out the coupe and you can compete with them all bro! You can drive! Stay with your commitment! And ps.. when the crew branches off and does their own little skit in the video is fire! Gives many different perspectives of the events and what is going on. Crew is killing it. Market heavy and always have the humbleness. Much love
Proud of you Jim, you looked so much more confident and drove fkn awesome. And the crew looked happy getting to travel along with you!!
Happy Birthday Big Jim!!! Steve you are a good dude! The hole crew is! Massive props to you guys Definitively You guys are Real Ones!!!

Some of the finest wheelman Jim action we've ever seen, was incredibly proud and hyped to watch (must not form parasocial relationship). You know it's a huge jump when people are checking to see if it's not someone else driving the car. Mad props. Happy birthday. Legend.
Did you change the front toe at the same time as changing the ackerman washers?
Hell yeah brother, Happy Birthday Jimmy!! So proud to see you getting better and better!
