Also following Jimmy Broadbent's Praga endeavours so looked at the Britcar entry list to see who else is racing and saw that MrJWW isn't entered? Odd.

Had to do a double take at Hugo Cook then redface

Even TGE can’t spell it when he’s doing a collaboration with him.... (I assume he actually is and isn’t just clickbaiting, didn’t watch it)



Really good chat, always funny comparing youtubers in this type of laidback setting compared to the personas people invent for them on forums, they're obviously good friends but people will still say X and Y aren't friends, they only talk to each other for their own personal agendas. People need to stop projecting their own biases onto others.

At my age I should probably know better but DMO Deejay - less talk, more action - gets my vote right now. Just full of energy and the cars are very much my cup of tea. The R34 VSPEC II back in Feb was fantastic.

Always watch Harry's uploads and until recently Number 27 and Jayemm, but getting a bit bored of how to fix an old Ferrari and Lamborghini tbh.

Opens up DMOs latest video, 31min long :

First 10 minutes : promoting his own events

Next 5 min : promoting some waterless car cleaning rubbish and crap chief notify.

Last 15 min : promoting air ride suspension as a serious choice for sports cars rofl


Seems like 'more talk, less action'

Great upload from Dan and his most recent racing exploits. Really enjoyed it myself.
I don’t consider myself to be Dan’s target audience, but his racing content is really good. It seems to be the perfect series for a YouTuber because it’s not completely locked down and he can get a lot of content out of preparing the car.

Here’s the channel link for anyone who doesn’t know who Dan is -
https://www.youtube.com/user/Y0RKSHRE
Really like Dan's video's. I have no real interest in some of the cars, but enjoy his dry humour and the fact he happily takes the piss out of himself and youtube in general.

His videos are often released some time after filming. He will have completed a normal quarantine period, having filmed enough videos ahead of time in the US to release during quarantine.
But his bird posted 3 days ago that they were leaving Florida and 2 days ago a pic from a dealership there, I mean that's some highly coordinated obfuscation if its pre planned.
Thats what they do. There's a picture from a randomer on Instagram of him in his new M3 in traffic in London that was posted a couple of days ago. He mentioned it when he used to post on here, Shmee is always at least a week or so ahead of Tim to avoid super stalker types tracking him down and the like..!
Fair enough I guess
On the TGE video Tim/Shmee says he has been back in England for three weeks.

Heading down the M11 this evening and a lovely clean yellow s2000 was ahead... As I caught up it occurred to me that I'd seen something similar on youtube - sure enough it was James. If you're reading, it twas me in the blue 8 series that gave you a toot of approval!

Tim's latest video on the Ford GT is interesting, brake pads were worn out @ 7k miles, new pads all round £5500, total cost of service was £8k.

Seems a lot for brake pads even with the car that it is.

That's just insulting to the owners, especially if they're pants, wearing out in 7k.

Ha, 8 series looked quite clean too.

I was driving home from a day out filming at Morgan

It looks like Alex Rebuilds, the guy who was rebuilding the Gas Monkey Garage truck and a 720s, has sold his channel. There’s been no new content in over 5 months, although he did post a comment a month ago saying there would be an update video in 2 weeks. The channel has now been taken over by Royalty Exotic Cars and renamed Royalty Rebuilds.

There’s been a lot of speculation in the comments section of his last video, but nothing that can be substantiated. He had appeared to be doing well, moving to larger premises and buying more projects. Maybe the pandemic caught him out.

This is either good news for the guy, or bad news. All I know is youtube channels don't often sell, as the audience tends to follow the person rather than the channel, but please keep us up to date with any further information.

Shmee picking up a new Porsche. Looks like a 718 GT4 or Boxster Spyder.
