I expected that would be said. I’m Korwen. Not really sure how I can prove it to you but then I don’t really think I need to.

Have you ever eaten a dog? That's probably fairly solid proof.

Full disclosure, Beefmeister is a mate of mine. I’ve read PH for years but never registered, thought it a good time now.

He got a month ban for some comments he made last week, someone reported him.

As for his education- he’s got a masters degree in mechanical engineering (as do I, it’s where we met) so he’s not exactly stupid.

Cute. Are you his boyfriend or are you beefy in disguise?

Very much a big push on sports there .

Is that a public school prospectus euphemism for, caters for those with learning difficulties?

google millfield olympics / commonwealth games , they've chucked out a few decent cricket players to .

Even Queefmeister wouldn't be silly enough to join using a different account though surely? He hasn't got all that long of a ban to go has he?

Here we go again with the "Hi, I'm a friend of" bullst. Where's TGE's 'friend' gone too?

Beefy comes across as a really nice bloke on the BOTB videos and I’m sure that’s what he’s really like. It was only on this thread that he got carried away and came across a bit weird. Say something remotely negative about certain you tubers and in no time he pops up and acts as if you’ve just insulted his mother and wife in one go.

The most vicious phrase in english "conflict of interest".

[e30m3Mark]

Which BOTB is Queefy then? You'd think he'd fly a bit more under the radar, although explains his 'patron saint of youtube' status.

Shmee’s brave going to the alps this season in his GTR. Snow has been mental and roads are being closed left right and centre. Should make an interesting video anyway.

Is he going to the 3 Valleys again?

Little bit of a sneaky one here, this isn't actually running live online and I leave in the morning - it's been fun though with epic dumps of fresh snow for skiing - haven't spent much time driving though.

He's certainly done a better job than TGE/Beefy - probably due to being better educated

He’s an utter tool

Had an argument with him on Twitter the other day by god he thinks highly of himself
His reply where’s your aventador? Mug

Well clearly he thinks what car you drive is a measure of success (my old man is far wealthier yet drives a Prius and has no desire for a supercar, doesn’t even like them)

Yeah what an arrogant loser!

Exactly, everyone knows that how much money your dad has is the only true measure of your success as a man! You sure showed him!

Eh I never told him that I’m saying my old man has no interest in supercars whatsoever in fact he hates them

the whole 'don't forget who you're talking to here, show me some respect, i'll decide if and when to give you a shout out' shebang (the bloke put up the whats-app messages).

A man with strong connections to criminality...

What are the strong connections?

Well most of his wraps are criminally bad.

Truthfully though as I know nothing about wrapping and I actually wondered this how are you meant to hide joins in the wrap

I was in Los Angeles recently and visited Petersen Automotive Museum. Some interesting cars of course and nice building but somehow it did not have much context or experiential info. Oh and full of kids with their parents. People like shmee (still, not a subscriber sorry!), I think doing a super-good job in that sense, there are millions kids or young enthusiasts out there, living who knows where and they can't access these cars or visit museums/factories in this level of detail but watching vlogs on youtube, completely free of charge.

That was something i was actually wondering about. Tim - do you get stats on the nationality of your viewers? I get the sense from some of the comments on Instagram that there's quite a lot of non-native English speakers.

My thinking was that in this country (well London at least, that's a country isn't it?) we're perhaps used to seeing many of these cars either out and about or at shows/Pistonhead Sunday Service etc. And that kind of takes a little of the edge off watching some of the Vloggers; we focus perhaps a little more on the presenter and less on the car (unless its something truly rare).

But presumably there are lots and lots of viewers from countries for whom an Aventador or Ferrari is a bit of a unicorn - never ever seen in the flesh. In that case I could understand their enthusiasm for Supercar Vlogs. Shmee - bringing Supercars to the masses
