Yeah, and que every "I'm a engineer" meme there is. Also every time some one says he/they are any type of engineer, I hear it in a retarded voice.

"Cuz you aint us?"
Just what what part of "us" do you mean? If I assume what I think you are thinking of, then you would clearly know about my avatar pic, and where comes from. If that is not what you think, then you are no where near "us"

Back to the topic, I think it is a pretty fair review. There is an uphill corner on our local track which puts me right in between 2nd and 3rd gear and I really have to get it right to avoid the torque dip and accelerate well in 3rd gear. I bet it would feel much better with the higher final drive ratio. Remember, this is the average Youtube car reviewer these days: You can fast forward to 4:08 to hear about how the cams stopped working and all that BS, or enjoy the whole video to witness the difference between a "car guy" and a "car scene guy". |

What is there to complain about. If I had a pretty face, wasn't super introvert and had any social skill whatsoever, I'd love to do the same. But I don't go in for the "I'll talk to the camera for 10 minutes about a subject that really should take about 30 seconds to communicate" videos. Plenty of car vloggers are guilty of that. Plus click bait titles. But I love Engineering Explained. It might be dumbed down, but some of us are dummies that need extra special explanations that give us confidence to go to other dummies and repeat what he told us to make us feel smart! |

The difference is the engineering explained dude actually knows stuff about cars. Most of these other clowns are just scene kid weeabos who don't particularly know a lot and do just what you said; talk to a camera for 10 minutes about a bunch of stupid shit with maybe 30 seconds of actual content mixed in. |
