How come he didn’t put a Hamann exhaust on his LP640.

Will there be snow in Africa this Christmas? Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

Well, I got three actual questions at least. Which is more than I thought I’d get out of you lot.

It would be interesting to ask his view on the future of the vlogging scene. They have all come a long way since loitering about in Kensington. Shmee is taking over the world, STG and his big project. Nrecomers lije LLF with a totally different style. It would be interesting to see what his angle is.

Not sure how Paxman you want to get but it would be interesting to hear.

Given QueenB's redbull series where she has started drifting, is Paul still considering doing the same ? it seems like this was an idea some time ago and nothing has happen.

Wrap. Exhaust. Rinse and repeat.

I could understand keeping up the same formula if it was delivering results (like Doug deMuro) but his social blade stats show a drop off in monthly views (down from a peak of 6m a couple of years ago to 2m now).

Perhaps you could ask if he even expects to have any views at all in the next couple of years (or will he become the new Seb Delanney?). I think if it was my main sourcecof income I might be inclined to put some more effort in

Enjoyed Shmee's latest Chiron video.

Andy Wallace is a cool bloke and I agree he has one of the best jobs in the world but I remember Clarkson's quote about him as the McLaren F1's test and customer instructor that it must be terrifying having to sit next to "monied dorks" who may be really crap drivers.

Tim, how did the Chiron feel compared to your AMG GTR which I think has roughly half the bhp and torque?

I like his channel fwiw. He appears to be mates with a number of the other car YouTubers. Does he feel like he is competing against them and is he competitive about the number of views and subscribers they each get?

SOL Paul popped up on Gymkhana Grid at the weekend - https://youtu.be/K-dKl3m-5zw?t=7805 - turns out that's where he's heading next year for his sideways action. Beefmeister - would be good to hear a bit more on this as on Paul's own channel the learning to drift etc has gone a bit quiet...

Paul's talked a bit in the past about dealing with anxiety. It must be extraordinarily difficult being a YouTuber and coping with the constant barrage of mindless, ill-informed, lazy and offensive feedback. How does Paul manage to balance the incessant demands of maintaining viewer interest, acting on feedback and keeping his own motivation up?

Tim / Shmee - you seem remarkably impervious to it, for which I applaud you (fwiw).
