What I Think of Every Car Youtuber (Tavarish, Adam LZ, Cleetus, TJ Hunt, and More)

Ай бұрын

Car culture has been shaped by many things. Fast and Furious, underground car meets, and most of all nowadays - social media. One of the biggest influences in my opinion being automotive KZfaq. Car KZfaqrs now inspire people to create their own build ideas, become car taste makers if they review cars, or just show you a slice of life. So what are all these people actually like? Let's talk about it.

There should be a part of where everyone gets to say something about you dave 🙂 - dave is by FAR the upmost stand up, caring, oddly knowledgeable about anything history, and funny guy I’ve ever met in the industry. His passion for anything automotive has bleed through over the last 10+ years in this space and is the definition of an OG. And I’m personally honored to call him a friend. ❤

As someone who studied photography but didn't end up becoming a photographer...do not sell yourself short! You might not always make as much noise as some people on KZfaq but you're one of the most skilled. There's a reason why people and companies outside the KZfaq space seek out your skills. KZfaqrs usually make entertaining content, and very very occasionally make art. You usually make art and make entertaining content as a side project. And you do it on subjects that should make for nothing other than documenting or for informing photos and still pull out art somehow. You're a hero in this space!

I met Rob Dahm at Gridlife Midwest in 2022 and we talked for a few minutes about his 4 rotor RX7. Last year at Gridlife 2023 he actually recognized me out of a crowd of people and gave me a little point and nod as he was pulling out of the pits in his 3 rotor. Just shows how much of a down to earth guy he is and his fans aren't just some forgettable randoms to him.

Dude, I’ve been watching you for 10 years, which is crazy and even met you at a C&O in Atlanta years ago. Please, please continue to listen to Larry. I’d love to see more track videos, documentaries, and videos like this one. You’ve always been one of the most genuine dudes on KZfaq, it’s why I’m still subscribed 10 years later after unsubbing from a lot of the scene. You and RoadsUntraveled will always be my top OG’s and it’s honestly such bs that your art gets rate-limited by a bs algorithm made by people who could never understand car culture as humans. Never stop growing man, put out what interests you, because that interests me and I’m sure the rest of your loyal viewers you’ve cultivated over the years. Keep bein real David 🤙🏼

Your videos where you just have a candid conversation like this make for some of the best content to consume while editing.

While I may not be as invested in the channel as some commenters..your content is very easy to just come back to and not feel like you've missed out on a season. I like that. You should come do an HPDE with us at Road Atlanta and AMP sometime. I feel like your personality would do well at a Jzilla Track Day!
