James Deane what a absolute legend can't wait to see Dave and the famous euro fighter I always remember seeing that for the first time in mondello a long time ago. Can't wait to see it in mondello at Jap fest 2024 with a legend of Irish drifting community and as you say in your video it will give you and the guys are great boost. After a horrendous traumatic event but you guys will come back stronger than ever 🏎️💯🇮🇪

It's not charity man. It's the car community trying to pay you back for every second of entertainment and joy you've given them. All the best x

100% agree. Just think what would you guys (drift games crew) do, if it happen to someone else in the community, you would help. So getting support and help isn't charity.

As any other creator, you bring us to your life, as a member of the family. And you know, you don't turn back on family. You would do the very same thing to any other family member. That's awesome in car culture, collective minds 😅

James Deane, i appreciate you not accepting him turning it down. He and the team needs a proper distraction to remind them of the love they have, not the love they lost.

Much respect to James Deane for being an awesome lad n being there for his friends. Dave keep your head up brother we got your back. Drift Games will be up n running better than ever before the year ends for sure

No fucking way. James proving why he's driftings gentlemen. Top notch stuff.

Dear drift games. Taking help from friends isn’t asking. You have a world of peers/fans/customers that just want to help! Accept the fact you have helped people all over the world, and now it’s time for those people to help back. From the ashes the phoenix rises. Bigger better stronger!

And... James Deane. What a guy. This shows his true character which we all knew but he's definitely a good one.

I already loved James but bloody hell I respect the hell out of him even more now! What a top bloke

Dude for real. That car ain't cheap! He's so genuine! We need more James deans and Brents*PFI* IN THIS WORLD!

Got goosebumps when the camera panned round and saw it was James Deane who’s lending you his car. Such a good guy man, and you completely deserve this level of kindness!

I fucking LEGIT stood up and said FUKKK YEAH !!! when you panned over!!!!!! #Irishfam for real!!! Thank you James!!!

Fair play on James, plenty of people sharing and commenting, but this man stood on business and forced Dave to drive this car at Japfest, true gentleman and heart of gold!

6:56 Being able to joke about it is good, it shows that you're already healing from it. Even 7 days later, if you guys can joke about it to cope with what was lost, is shows that you are not even close to the mental state that is required to give up. Keep up the good shit Drift Games, we love you

The machine dean!🇮🇪 honestly man I can see it in Dave’s face.. you’ve lifted his spirits and made him have something too look forward too again! I can’t thank you enough , and I’m sure he can’t either! This is what drifting is all about! All here for each other and just wanting too have a good time , I fucking love it ❤️ fair fucking play Dave you’ll do great in the eurofighter! Raging I’m not coming over for it now ! I shoulda just booked the flights last month 😒

Great to see Dave laughing and smiling again. Come on lad, you can do it. We're all routing for you and the DG team. 👍

🔥-0 🇮🇪-2 7 days and your on the up already! Great to see some smiles back on the channel! Keep it up lads

Wouldn't expect anything less from Deane. Dude is one of the best people in the drift scene.

I feel you with not wanting to take, I've always been a giver myself, I'm a dad of 4 (2 are mine, 2 are not) so I've given everything for them to have a better life, I've been blessed and been taken out in one 'pro level' drift car and I will NEVER forget that experience (I cried with happiness uncontrollably when we got back lol, it was overwhelming!), always been a dream of mine to drift, I did years of competitive sim drifting with a proper rig, then one learn2drift day where they offered to take me on but it was 200 miles away lol! Kids always "got in the way" so to speak, its hard to chase your dreams when you're trying to survive lol! Been folllowing your youtube for a while now, so sorry for all the destruction, I'd have done anything for any of those cars, nevermind having to go through losing them all, onwards and upwards, you're unknowingly living my dream life (aside from the fire obviously). Stay strong, Drift Games will come back stronger than ever, I believe it!

So great to see the sun shine through the clouds. Say a lot about James as a person to say, "hey, just take my car, and do your thing". Good to see you smiling again Dave. Enjoy your time with the boys, and raise some hell

Really says something about you guys that I'm going through the hardest time of my life, don't even have a car, and this news about y'all getting back on your feet brought me joy. Good on ya.

Fair play to James handing you the keys for the weekend! I love that RX7, remember seeing it and have pics of it from Punchestown in 2009 when it was purple. Could have been its first outing too coz its livery wasn't fully done, I wish KZread would let you add pics to comments! Great to see a drift car still around after 15 years and not in the scrap heap!

Been watching for a little bit. I showed my little boy the fire video (he loves cars) and he immediately said ‘we should pray for them, they’re probably so sad.’ So prayers from TN, USA guys!

James Deane just became my hero! I always thought he was a nice, stand up guy, but this is another level! Thank you James and congratulations Dave!!!

I fucking love this for you. What a legend James is.

James Deane knows more about coming back from things that just knock you down than anyone else in the community! just look at FD last weekend! the guy is a legend, and this is probably the best thing to get the moral of you all back up and running!

the silver lining is that your channel now has a unique sense of vulnerability and even more authentism then ever. giving everything more room for fun, comedy, empathy and highlighting you and your crews hard grind.

The Machine continuing to be an absolute legend. Good on ya James, backing your mate up, what a great opportunity to give to Dave. Nothing like blowing out the negative with 900hp going sideways.

As soon as i saw James drop to his knees and was tearing up after he was announced as winner at Long Beach, i knew in my heart that part of that emotion was for Dave and the gang. After everything that happened in one day to the Irish Drift community, i teared up as well. I cant wait to meet James in august at the Salt Lake round and hope to one day meet the rest of the gang too

I fully expect you all to be back on your feet in less than a year. The car community is strong and tight, and you have support from all facets of the auto industry. I’m rooting for all of you to come back stronger than ever! Cheers mate

thats why i love our car szene one big family. Looks like Vin Diesel was right all along. Wish u the best guys!

Good to so see you letting your friends lift you up when you need it. That’s what friends are for. Dave, don’t worry about letting people help. You already built drift games. It’s there, the brand and stories are with us who watches on KZread and everyone who went to one you events. If people want to help you get back on your feet, let them. Because there is no glory in working harder just for working hard. Like… skip the pride and accept the love people are sending your way.

James is such a sound guy, what a brilliant thing to do 👍 Dave and James doing a demo run. That RX7 sounds unreal in real life 💨 Great to see you smiling Dave 👍 🇮🇪 Drifting is one big family, always help each other out 👍

I just love James even more. Love seeing Dave being himself again. Let's go guys. 🎉🎉

Getting back behind the wheel is exactly you need Dave, can't wait to see it. James is a legend 🙌

James walks the walk and Dave talks the talk had me cracked up haha Really excited to see Dave drive the Eurofighter!

So glad to see James show you boys some love, this is what our car culture is all about. Congrats James for podium!!! LFGOOOO!!!!

James Deane, so kind for lending you the car!

big up to James Deane, not too many people that will put trust, give, or do something as he did. Thats a saint in my book. May God or and the universe bless the both of you. i want that "Let me enjoy my car" shirt so bad but that shipping SMH lol

The first video I watched of yours was when your unit burned down. If that didn't happen, I may never have found your channel. I'm gutted for you guys, but boy, am I glad I found your video. I'm excited to see your rebuild. Stay positive boys, the only way is up 💪

Glad to see you accepting some positivity! It's not charity. It's community.

"You don't achieve greatness by doing ordinary things. You can't be extraordinary by being ordinary." Thanks Dave, you really hit home with that.

the person that donated their car to you is a wonderful human being. what a beautiful act of kindness. wish you guys all the best getting back on yer feet.

Here we go.. The start of the comeback. Totally get the wanting to do things yourself.. But recieving help when your in need is a massive sign of how much people think of you and what you do. Swallow some of the pride, accept some of the help.. We all know you'll pay it back and then some.

So happy to see a smile on your face again. Looking forward to seeing you in the car

The car community is not ready for the comeback they are going to make the undying support they have from their fans friends and sponsors they will pull through like no one has before

DriftGames rising up and coming back stronger and better than ever lets go ! 👌👍and thats the definition of true friends and DriftGames were all here for yous lets do this keep up the great work 👍

Big respect for ploughing on and not giving up

Incredible offer from James, he's always been a good skin. Lovely to see you a bit happy Dave though an incredibly difficult time. Hope you have a ball over the weekend at Japfest. I've just booked tickets for me and the family so we'll be there to cheer you on. Long Live Drift Games!

James dean is such an amazing and humble gentleman! Salute to you and the team & Drift Games crew ! The Comeback is always sweeter

Just what you needed. Get your head straight and have some fun... Well done James.. Your a gent

Thank you James & Dave. In a world where people persist in killing each other this is the positive news we all need. Generosity & gracious acceptance of help (Not charity). The Rolf Harris song two little boys comes to mind 😊

Great to see lads & hear the excitement back in your voices, it may only be a distraction but it is a well needed distraction for you Dave & all the crew!! Fair play to ya James 🤘scholar & a gent!! Looking forward to Japfest, seeing you all there & hooning the Eurofighter Dave...enjoy it pal!!

Commenting for the algorithms!!!! Found you from LZ. Stayed for the content!!! Yall got this. Keep on keepin youre heads up. I think youll be back sooner than you think

Glad to hear of some positive stuff happening to you guys! It can only go up from here❤

Dave, keep in mind. Build it Back Better. You guys got this!

Absolute legend James Deane. Love that 4 rotor RX7 too, I've watched Rob Damn's vids over the years on his journey with his 4 rotor RX7 and it's just a bonkers engine overall.

Absolutely amazing and PLEEEEASE make sure you take as much merch as you can before you sort out any of our pre-orders, I'm sure there will be loads of people there who want to buy merch and help any way they can.

We're all behind y'all. Stand strong.

I didn't know when to chime until you talked about the collective stupidity of car guys. F'in Right!! That's what makes it so great! Thank for all that you do!

Fair play Dave, James Deane is a legend you don't turn down. As hard as it it now , drift games will get there. Mental health in Ireland is a bug thing , especially in men. It's great you talked about it and your fantastic team behind you. The shadows that make drift games what it is. I understand your charity stance but the whole crazy car community is behind you guys. Keep being you.

Everything happens for a reason, we might never understand why, but it will all work out in the wash, Keep you head held high and let this be motivation to go harder ❤

As soon as i saw the shed i knew something amazing was about to happen. Jd is a top humble dude and thank you for taking him up on his offer 🙏

James Deane will forever be remembered for his drifting legacy, but I personally will always remember him as just a good man with a big heart. How heartwarming. The comeback begins!! Love you boys!

its really good to see a smile back on your face Dave, and BIG UPS to The Machine that is James Deane for borrowing the eurofighter to Dave for JapFest, truely a gentleman of the sport

My two favorite people in one video❤ Wish you all the best for the future to come

Lovely 🤗🤗 nice to see a bit of Dave back and well done James 👌

Dude that is absolutely wild! So cool! I love Deane, this just shows the character of the man.

James Deane... Fair play brother. Much love from the North, take er easy bais. Great seeing yous smile again

Back making great videos already! Great to see Dave excited, what a legend James is!

DriftGames rising up and coming back stronger and better than ever lets go ! ☝👌DriftGames 2.0 👍

This is what the car community is about ❤. Just awesome to see your face lit up again, and James. You’re an absolute legend for this, much love to both of you.

This is why we love the drift community. Showing God’s love in times of such incredible love. Love you guys!!

first ..... have a good day mates

James is the goat! This is super awesome, you deserve this opportunity Dave! Keep your head up you guys will blow past your expectations on this rebuild as a team. You will 1000% be bigger and better than you have been and we’re all here for it, much love

Wow this is fantastic news. Im so happy for you Dave. This has really brought a smile to my face. Thank you James Deane

James your a diamond man so down to earth and kind . Dave so happy you’ve got something to drive and something to get yourself a bit excited with all that’s going on 😊

What an incredible gesture, fair play to James Deane for having his mates' back in their darkest time. This is gonna make JapFest even more unreal!

James is class... 💯 🙏 God bless him, and the Drift Games crew !

Awesome to see dave smiling again talking about cars & drifting 😊 James Deane is an absolute legend. Truley shows that the Irish have the biggest hearts in drfiting.

This honestly is the sickest video! Well done James I think you was the only person that could have made him get out of his own head!! The car community is honestly the best 💙

This is excellent news, just what's needed by a stand up guy. The best thing about the RTR engine is that its a NASCAR engine, its designed to run at 9000rpm with zero airflow in the draft for hours on end, even when they spew all the coolant out they keep going!

I'm glad we got that story in the middle because I really wanted to see it talked about between you two specifically. But this video just helps reassure me (and MANY more) that both you and James are Class A top notch people and we respect what you guys do, not only for us, but for one another. Congrats to James on the hard fought FD win and congrats to you Dave on getting to drive that wild machine!

Thank you James, love the whole crew and everyone involved

Fair play to James. The Drift community is amazing. Just what you need Dave a break from everything

James is such a gentleman. It fills my heart with joy to see stuff like this happening. Enjoy Dave!

i remember a third person who also drove it - but james was in the passenger seat. it was piotr in poland in a testdrive, when the eurofighter was very new. :D you are all a very big inspiration for the sport and for the human aspect, huge fan

I only started watching just as the new place came in and was in from then. Its weird when you pick up new you tube channels, this is a proper roller coaster!! Was depressed for you lot since. This is awesome 👌 you deserve to get back to where you were and more. Keep going. ill keep watching 😊

I knew it !!! James is another amazing person just like you guys. Very genuine. Love when I see our community come together like this!! Can’t wait for the comeback you guys will have. It will be better than ever and truly deserved!!
