Trying to create the content people want to the standard they expect with a very small team when you're on an event is super difficult - even something trivial as getting a drive by shot can become nearly impossible.

On most press launches the YouTubers are the first to leave and the last to arrive - it takes a lot longer for us to do our thing than traditional journos

Eh?

BTW Jayemm, loved the Prelude vid. A mate had a 4WS one and the handling was crazy good for something so comfy and 80's.

I am thinking he means when they all get to their cars on a launch, the YTers are the first to leave the press launch car park with their test car and last to arrive back to press launch base that day as they had to spend longer doing shots, camera work etc than simply drive and write.

Exactly that.

To give you some context of how hard he works, Tim's Roma video was out before I got home.

And an interesting thing is that Shmee put out a few highly edited videos a few years ago (remember his Mille Miglia video as a comparison with Sam's) but he used not to get any more views for highly edited videos than for much more simple ones, and today his editing style is very simple.

HubNut's ability to rhyme off makes, models and facts of cars off the cuff never fails to impress.

This is HubNut back at what he’s good at, I actually enjoy this content

I'd love a go in his MR2. It looks ace, very revvy and super light.

That hair though

Agreed the show videos and the road trip videos are his forte along with the 'new' car collection videos.

Hopefully he gets that bloody Daihatsu Charade finished as they are by far the dullest videos.

I don’t know how he avoided an accident at the start. I’m sure David Coulthard would have been using the phrase cat-like reflexes!

Also, great to hear that he’s had some success as a barn find hunter!

For anyone that watched the STG Mille Miglia videos, I suggest watching/listening to the latest BTG episode which is a Behind The Scenes of their trip.

Dan’s probably the only automotive YouTube whose humour appeals to pretty much every age of car enthusiast.
The little edits appeal to the zoomers and his commentary appeals to the slightly older age group.

Just watched that, somehow what they found doesn't sound too surprising. Probably gives some ideas about the difficulty of filming it though

Auto Alex is some pretty excruciating cringe, shame cos I am actually interested in the Fiat Coupe Turbo, Uno Turbo etc stuff, cars you dont see often.

Ratarossa is fast becoming my favourite YouTuber. He doesn’t release new videos very often but they are always very good. Does anyone know if this is his full time job or does he have another career outside of YouTube?

Yeah it's just spot on, and why he's my favourite on YT. I'll watch a 30min vid of him servicing his M3 and enjoy it. No fake persona.

He's pretty much full time YT

I was very surprised how negative they were about the whole thing tbh, kind of highlighted for me how little the 'film crew' did, they were meant to take most of the filming stress off Sam and from the sounds of how stressed he was they didn't step up (he didn't say that but reading between the lines and looking how much content was obviously filmed by Sam/GoPro in car)

Might of missed it on here but the fella behind Certi Drivers was arrested and charged so that’s one less menace on the road. Luckily he had a plethora of YouTube content to cement the charges.
