I Wrecked My Car at the LZ World Tour
Chris, the man behind Ricer Miata, spent his weekend at the LZ World Tour, the drift event his viewers watched him travel to, and the trip ended with a crashed car. "I Wrecked My Car at the LZ World Tour" went up eight hours ago and had passed 18,000 views already, moving faster than anything else on the channel. The description stays upbeat: he calls the show a blast and says he learns a lot at every round.
Before that came "The E30 Is Getting STRIPPED!", the week's most watched upload, with the old BMW up on a lift and a stubborn idle surge still unsolved. The comment section turned into a free diagnosis clinic. Viewers suggest a tired brake booster, a vacuum leak at the valve cover or a fresh look at the exhaust side, and one says to drop the MAF for an aftermarket ECU and be done with it. Others spent their time on Canadian gas prices, carefully converting the litre price into US gallons. Several people who met him in Montreal say thanks for the visit, and a few admit they missed the uploads while he was on the road.
Those two videos were all he posted, and the channel ran a little below its usual pace, with subscribers holding at 475,000. Around him most cars and motoring channels of similar size were slower than normal too, while ReDriven stayed far busier than everyone else in the group.

It was an absolute pleasure meeting you at the LZ World Tour! Vital is crazy good and I’m glad I bought a case. I got a bunch of cool ‘junk’ at the booth and had a good look at the e36, thing gets down and you drove very well. Thank you for coming up and freezing in the wind with us for the weekend! It’s been a wild ride watching your entire arc on YouTube from the very beginning, looking forward to what comes next.
@canadianracer83See it on YouTubethanks for coming to montreal, its was fun to talk to you and meeting you, and signing my buddy mustang 👌
@beaulieu99See it on YouTubeI know sounds strange but does the brakes feel weird or anything no hissing from the brake booster? The inside of the booster could have gone bad and can cause a vacuum leak (not sure if bmws the same but worth a check)

@sunnyricerSee it on YouTubeThat extra bundle of wires was crazy lol
@therealjhall833See it on YouTubeI’m almost certain the m52 has that weird idle because of the hole on the valve cover. These engines have a vacuum inside the valve cover
