10.5 1/4 mile, pretty nippy. M135i about 13's, I'm guessing.Quicker than a Taycan Turbo too.

Ricky LLF into his Forex trading now? Shady bunch.
First these guys were pumping Crypto couple years back and now they've moved onto Forex. Edited by KJH on Monday 6th July 21:13
Tons of bottom of the the barrel clowns on IG pushing this BS and for whatever reason all them gravitate to the Lambo brand because I've met a few of these clowns at Lambo meets who show up in their short term rentals, Gucci head to toe pushing their BS courses. What I'm shocked about is how many people actually fall for these pyramid schemes.

That and nowadays lots of people just want a quick easy fix to get money and be able to show off on Instagram. They don’t want to work hard for anything f.

Tavarish posted an update on the 675LT parts situation a few days ago -
'UPDATE on Bank of America fiasco: They found the money and parts are ready to ship. BIG Thanks to everyone that helped!'
Respect to him taking that McLaren on but I think it would have been better left in the scrap yard, 3 different salvage dealers walked away from it.'UPDATE on Bank of America fiasco: They found the money and parts are ready to ship. BIG Thanks to everyone that helped!'
Even the carbon tub is damaged, must be beyond saving it has had a massive impact with a tree, that must have stressed most parts outside design limits.

Bisforbuild is going a similar way, cars get done and then we never see them again. They will just gather dust and then probably sold at a loss.
The UK vloggers are probably a bit different as depreciation is probably a killer for them so they have to sell at highest price possible to ensure they dont have a balancing charge on their accounts for the year end for the capital allowances.
Still, probably a good way to reduce profits esp if they sell to a "mate".... ahem.

Does anyone else on here watch RDB LA? If not, they're an LA based customisation/repair shop that do some really great builds. I know widebody Urus's and lowered chrome Lamborghinis aren't everyones cup of tea but it's quite cool to see what it's like behind the scenes there.
Nice short episodes too.

For Tavarish, the actual cost of the 675 and repair will be insignificant given the revenue opportunities, and that's why these projects make sense for him and others.
Interesting to see Goonzquad selling off a couple of their previous repairs right now. I guess they can't all sit around for ever doing nothing once repaired.

I was hoping to watch that, but it seems to have disappeared (for me at least). Any chance you can post a direct link please?Pommy said:

That's probably why it doesn't show up under Carfection's video list - weird

I watch them, not something I would do to a car but from a YouTube viewing perspective I find it interesting behind the scenes like you mention and like the fairly short but regular videos. I even bought one of their hoodies and randomly when wearing it on a mate's Stag in Poland last year some german blokes shouted 'RDB' from their pub table and we ended up chatting cars.Nice short episodes too.

Amazing how often some people change their wraps to 'keep up' with fashion - not sure how good that is for the original paintwork with repeared glue and heat. Had a look at their new branded shoes site - £400 for a pair of trainers....no thanks!
I guess YouTube need some more moneys

You're receiving this email because we are making some changes to mid-roll ads that will impact your channel. These changes will make more videos eligible for mid-roll ads to increase your monetisation potential.
Today, only videos longer than 10 minutes are eligible for mid-roll ads. Starting from late July, all videos longer than 8 minutes will be eligible for mid-roll ads. As part of this change, we will turn on mid-roll ads for all eligible videos. This means that videos where you may have opted out of mid-roll ads will now be opted in. Videos that already have mid-roll ads will not be impacted. Future uploads from monetising channels will also have mid-roll ads turned on by default.
Turning on auto mid-roll ads saves creators extra work while helping increase the monetisation potential for new and existing content. We use machine learning to automatically find the most natural breaks in your videos, in order to increase monetisation potential while balancing user experience.

Maybe it's my age but car meets overrun with people making their cars backfire appear to be the thing right now and they're as appealing as a ball waxing. Shame, as I quite like the idea of rolling meets and AdamC has done a pretty good job thus far. It'd be a pity to see them getting shut down due to nobbers.
