No points at stake. James Deane's only new upload brings the RTR Mustang home for an organised, closed-course demonstration through Cork city centre, with barriers replacing the usual competition setting.
In "Street Drifting the RTR Mustang in Cork City!", Deane walks South Mall with the other drivers before getting into his race gear. Planning the lines on foot is one thing; sliding between familiar buildings is another. "About to drift the city. It just doesn't make sense," he says.
The Red Bull Home Run event celebrates Conor Shanahan, with Jack Shanahan and Conor Falvey joining the driving line-up. Deane's first run gives way to tandem slides alongside Conor, while a Red Bull Racing RB7 Formula 1 car adds a different engine note. By the later sessions, the driving continues into the night.
The upload reached roughly 26,000 views and is comfortably the channel's busiest video right now. In the comments, viewers ask for a garage update, nominate another Drift Shifters event and pose a question with plenty of possible answers: which car has been Deane's favourite to drift?
Daily viewing across the channel is more than twice its usual level, although subscribers remained unchanged over the week. Nearby in the wider motorsport group, Channel 4 Sport is also enjoying unusually busy daily viewing, while INDYCAR On FOX is running below its usual level.
Deane's other active uploads keep the homecoming theme close. The Long Beach finale remains in circulation, and "I DRIFTED IRELAND'S WILDEST MOUNTAIN ROAD! | HEALY PASS" is approaching 300,000 views. That film traded championship judging for a closed mountain road; Cork brings the same freedom into the city, with fellow Irish drivers sharing the course.
