Lots of people commenting on the noise restrictions at NCM- it's not the track trying to be killjoys, it's the fact that the track was built extremely close to neighborhoods, without any "noise abatement" structures. The result is neighbors who are constantly pissed off, and a bunch of guys with Corvettes that can't even show off how loud they made them. Check out this article from an organization with the hilarious name "Noise Free America." Seems like a group of folks who'd be fun to share some beers with, assuming you're drinking those beers in a library. www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/bowling-green-kentucky-an-obnoxiously-loud-race-track-300505090.html

Curious if the homes were built there AFTER the race track was already there. Laguna Seca comes to mind....

@Gears and Gasoline ah that’s fair game then. Some noise abatement + restrictions would be fair game then. By the way, congrats on the podium!! A decade ago, I owned a white 2005 evo 8 GSR (w/ ssl package for those hardcore evo diehards) with Jdm 8 tails and 9 rear bumper too, so seeing your car on the track was nostalgic.

I JUST remembered my front Brembos did the same thing on my car, the caliper bolt backed out due to the stiff fortune auto coils I had on my car, and my calipers also hit the inner barrel too. Not at the track though, so damage was minimal. What a coincidence.

Why don't they just build sound deadening wall around the course? Problem solved.

Such a healthy event. Competitors healping each other. As achiles said to hector when he tripped "i wouldn't let a stone take my glory" in this case. They wouldn't let a broken wheel take their glory. Very good sportsmanship.

Yeah, no kidding, one of the most offbeat ways to lose a wheel. The fact that everything else was still working and he got the car back up by the next day, and managed to snag a podium, just makes it even more epic. It may have made for an expensive weekend, but it could've been so much worse... I was worried he lost control and wiped out when it happened.

As someone who works at one of those walmart auto care centers it’s cool to see exciting wheels and cars come through every once in a while

I curbed a wheel yesterday and Ben split his in half to make me feel better.... what a true friend:). Thanks for another great video G&G🤙

I really loved everything about the video! Graphics, interviews, narration, storyline and sequence of events. Somehow you all manage to step up your already amazing quality. 💛

That splitting of wheel is such a unique and cool little story to be told.

Another great video guys! Well done for the podium Ben! Good to see the whole team getting more airtime in the recent videos. I like the new format of the voiceovers.

One of the best feel good videos i have watched! Congratulations Ben and to whole team of Gears and Gasoline! More power guys!! 🙌🙌

glad yall were able to get it sorted! its good to have people who are willing to help out when something like this goes down.

some of the most genuine content out there. keep going hard boys, keen for every video

really enjoyed this one! been watching you guys for so long i feel like i won with you. btw the white n black wheel combo looks bad ass.

The quality, cinematography, the story, people behind G&G is fantastic. It feels like we're watching a reality tv show. Keep it up! 💯💯💯

Such a good channel! I can’t wait to see you guys out on track!

You guys have the best Saturday morning videos for car guys. Awesome job on the podium.

Freakin awesome, always love Gears and Gasoline channel...so inspiring. Thank you guys!

Congratulations on the podium placement. As always, LOVE the video/audio quality of these episodes.

That was so fun to watch. Good work, man. That little bit at the end with the bottle made the whole video.

Congrats Brother! You were hustlin' that thing through the corners. Love the shots of you flying over the curbs. Gotta say, that E36 looks super fine as well though.

Finally some more gridlife,thank you guys! Ben keep up the good work,podiums gotta feel great!

love seeing the evo in action! been a long time coming :D

congrats guys! This was such an awesome event and a great episode. Loved it!

Great Video and nice seeing you get some coaching from Jackie. I followed his Channel for a while now and that got me really interested in the Time Attack Scene.

This channel is the reason I'm building my car for StreetMod. I hope you inspire others twice as far for half the money.

Been waiting for this video since I saw this on IG. Great vid. Congrats on the podium

Great job sticking with it and using all the tools to get faster! Keep up the good work!

Exactly what I needed to motivate me to work on my project car today. Thank you.

This is a prime example of if you fail, you pick up what you left on the table, you learn, and you kick some ass on the next one

Best car related content on youtube. It is always a pleasure to watch your videos.

Today in gears and gasoline, Ben gets a spot on the podium and comes home with bragging rights, an interesting story to tell and a custom 2 piece wheel.

It’s been a long time coming congrats to be in the podium Ben Lin

Great work Tall Ben! Congratulations on your podium finish! Looking forward to Short Ben's Civic's turn this year. Godspeed to Gears & Gasoline!

The production quality of this is incredible, you continue raising the bar gents! The 2 piece wheel deserves a place on a wall.

Consistent quality ,and only channel I have my notification on

Insane how that wheel split, congrats on 3rd! Beautiful vid on my saturday morning 😀

How cool, I was there for this event! It was cool to see the evo in person, good luck to you on the rest of the season.

Those Advan GT's... are so freaking beautiful. Hell, anything Advan makes is elagant in design.

Huge Congrats to you Ben on a job well done!!! FAN FROM TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO!

Congratulations man! Looks like a hell of a lot of fun! I wish I could get on a track! For as far back as I can remember I always wanted to race. Unfortunately with the way, my life has went it simply wasn't in the cards. But hey I'm only 39, I guess there's still time.

This is the coolest that EVO has been so far! I look forward to many more podiums from Ben.

Good job guy’s for the 3rd place🔥🔥, “Car didn’t explode” as a Evo owner I can relate 🤣🤣, excellent content.🙌🏽👏🏽

Way to go Ben!!! Can’t wait to see the next race video.

The ending was perfect. Thats how you get your viewers to relate. Thumbs up!

Well done. And not giving up after the wheel failure was epic. 👏

Nicely done keeping it under control! I had the exact same thing happen to my stock c4 corvette. One of my front calipers jumped the hold down pins on the pads and started to mill away at the front wheel, caught it before anything disastrous but my wheels got a nice groove cut in it.

Hey Ben congratulations on the podium! Hard work and not giving up has its benefits

İ love you guys really i mean i feel Ben's emotions by just watching this video. Great job man keep it going. Greetings from Turkey btw.

Love your videos. Very good editing. Tons TONS of details!!!!

Good job ben! Thank you for making us evo owners who like to take corners proud!

Splitting a rim like that isn't very easy to do, so congratulations! That's an accomplishment and it shows you are trying pretty hard. Love the series and the last year of videos have been awesome

Great video! At least you have some slick TE37s and an new artistic wall decoration

Ben im proud, that was an amazing challenge and you beat it, congrats!

Props for the editing, wow this looked better than most tv shows!

The gridlife eps are the best. Nice job Ben.

Congrats on podium! My friend had the same thing happen to his wheel at BW where the caliper can openered the wheel.

Love to see you happy Ben, congrats dude !

Laughed so hard at the end. Ben glad you made it.

Absolutely love everything about this

congrats ben, well deserved podium. i wish i could visit the us and join time attack one day, seems truly magnificent.

This is such an insanely epic video you guys, well done. Hope to see some Civic action soon!

I especially appreciated the champagne tutorial at the end 🤣.

I will be on the track on Saturday, almost 3 years waiting for these day... i just hope I have much fun like you guys, is a tremendous economic effort for me but had to say race your car is life!

The quality of this production is on point!!

Congrats man well deserved.

after so much you still did so well,hatsoffff....... dude

Congratulations on your Podium victory your channel always has very exhilarating content, most people in the DSM community that have the 4g63 engine usually weld large bungs on the valve cover to help with the crankcase ventilation

Well done Ben, your driving has really improved 👍.

That wheel should definitely be a trophy.

ever since the hows my 400whp evo build going? video the quality is something else you if not already have a tv show need one!! this is too good to be hidden away on youtube 👌
