So google invested a ton of money last year I think it was into promoting original content. Car stuff was one of the big benefactors. And they have this youtube channel called drive. I am sure I am beating a dead horse but I havent seen anyone mention it yet.

I love it, new generally pretty good stuff most days of the week

Including some of my personal favorites like the 25minute interview with Ulrich Baretzky http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TAhWdVU3M4&feature=plcp

I too did not know. Some are better than others but I did like this one.

If you can not stay for the full 16 minutes, drop in at about 11:30 to see the otherwise chatty host loose his train of thought and babble. My favorite line, "5th gear? You shouldn't be in 5 gear here, that should not be possible here! We go 95-100 mph on roads designed for 20 mph."

This Ode to the E28 M5 is good as well.

Leo is the best. I've gotten him to do a little bit of Lemons coverage. Working on getting Drive to cover the 20xx GRM Challenge.

No, but Freiburger's "Roadkill" on Motor Trend YouTube channel is berkeleying epic.

I've been following Drive and Roadkill. My favorite clips tend to come from Chris Harris.

You could tell there was a real passion by the owners in the interviews.

Yeah and that is probably the one word explanation of drive that has made me love it the most, passion. A lot of the content (not all) really embodies the genuine passion for motorsports.

Some of the rideapart episodes have been good also
