This is one of the most epic commercials I have seen in a long time. Don't think Hyundai paid you enough.
-
Really should show more on how TT trucks go through the desert so fast because of shocks. The #1 man at fox racing shocks has recently passed. Maybe do a video on him and his work throughout motor sports and even downhill mountain biking. Revolutionized the game with his knowledge
-
I had a base Kona for about a year. Actually really liked it. A deer decided I'd had it long enough.
-
donut explains things to us like babies but plays it off as a joke to save our ego. i love it
-
Suspension tuning is real magic. It can "feel" great, taught, and drivable but actually increase tire wear and track times. There is a true balance between making it work well and feel right.
-
RIP Fran 🙏 Definitely thought there was going to be a yo momma joke when Jeremiah was talking about bottoming out suspension.
-
That “commercial” was hilarious! It’s literally one of the very few times I wanted to sit thru an entire ad. Good job Donut crew!!!
-
This has turned out to be one of my favorite episodes. As a teenager I had assumed being able to control my car and break better would help me go faster being as our chosen race course in high school was a lonely curvy State Road. 17 year old me is vindicated,man I miss that car.
-
Glad to see James and Jerry are still gonna be weird car guys when they get old. My condolences for Fran though. That's rough Pumph!
-
Thanks for having us on the show. The Catfish is on its way to becoming The Trackfish riding on UMI Performance Cornermax suspension. And it's fun knowing more behind the scenes secrets coming soon. We can't wait to see this weapon on track.
-
Great explainer Jerry! We love suspension! so underrated
-
Ive been working on cars and trucks, semi trucks, for 15-20 yrs now im a double master tech ASE L1,L2, ASE A1 to A9 ,X1 , customer service and maintenance Ase certifications, ive heard alot of ways to work on many things and never stop learning, yall make it funny and easygoing and informative. Great work yall
-
Jerry- "hey james we need a B2B on suspension" James- "yeah that sounds good" Jerry- "we should put completely change out the suspension on my catfish, for educational purposes of course" James- "yeah educational" Jerry- "you didnt say no"
-
I really want a longer version of this video showing the install process I love watching you guys work on cars and the camaraderie between you guys.
-
Jerry has easily become one of my favorite hosts 🤣 hope he stays on the show for a while
-
i want to thank you guys. i’ve been trying to get into cars especially since i just got my wrx and i never really knew where to start. you’ve taught me and told me what stuff is and i can’t wait to start modding my car. ( with more knowledge ofc )
-
Holy smokes. Hyundai sponsored u! Not a colab, not a product review/placement. A straight up sponsor by a car manufacturer. Big Congrats. Ps. Your commercials are hands down the best on the internet.
-
The only channel where I never skip over the ads. That Hyundai ad was great👌🏼
-
I do a lot of tuning for fun in BeamNG and needed suspension geometry explained to me in simpler terms- thank you so much Jerry!
-
Great video! taught me a lot about specifics and the particulars of the components that integrate with the suspension beyond coil overs that I wasn’t too knowledgeable on but now I have a new insight and the knowledge thanks to you guys👍🏽
