- I was watching earlier and you were
going like sideways sideways, but
somehow moving forward.
(laughing)
- It's magic
- I was like that doesn't really make sense to me.
- Hyperdrive is doing stuff with cars that
nobody's ever done before, right?
You've ever done a rocker turn or a reverse 180?
Go backwards and spin the car around?
- Yeah all the time.
(laughing)
(car tires screeching)
Hello, my name is- that's not how I start this off.
(laughing) Now I can't think of any other way to
start it than that.
Hi, my name is Griffin Gluck, you may
recognize me from Netflix's, "Tall Girl".
I got invited by the Hyperdrive crew to come out
and check out what they're up to.
If you guys have seen Hyperdrive,
you know it's crazy.
I've seen a little bit of the practice runs
and wow okay, I'm gonna be in that?
So how did I get here?
So my first car was a mini cooper countrymen sport
stick shift and it was very important that
it was a stick shift.
My dad would not let me get any other car
unless it was stick shift and he actually
bought it for my older sister first.
She learned on it and then it was
handed to me and I think it's a very
usable skill.
'cause now I can drive like regular cars super easily
and no one can drive my car which is very nice.
So how'd you guys get into driving cars really fast?
- [Aaron] Uh well, for me personally it was
a natural progression like started with BMX
- [Griffin] Right.
and conquering my fears and you know maybe
I was just afraid of going a little too fast
or something.
- Right.
- That was always challenging and really rewarding.
- Right, the adrenaline rush too.
- Yes. So that was-
- I can only imagine.
- That was definitely what got me into like cars.
And then once I was able to drive and got
my license, game over.
- Yeah game over.
(laughing)
- [Furak] I wonder how you're going to do inside the car.
- I wondered too.
You guys got any tips and what it's like
- You sounded like a speed freak so we're gonna
have to-
- I do like speed, I am speed freak.
- [Brittany] I honestly think for me, personally,
as far as tips go.
Have fun.
- Oh I plan on it and that's like, that's already.
- If you're not having fun than there's no point to it.
- [Griffin] Yeah, you're doing something wrong.
- And everyone starts doing it.
- [Brittany] Exactly.
- If you're on this track and you're not having fun,
you're doing something wrong.
- [Group] Yeah.
- 100 percent.
- Okay cool, I feel like I've got all my questions
and security is out of the way.
(laughing)
- Do you wanna go down to the track?
- I really do, I've been waiting all day for this.
- Well, lets take you down to the track.
Let's see what we can show you.
- Please, let's do it.
(techno music playing)
(tires screeching)
- Wow.
- [Fielder] Sup.
- What an introduction.
How you doin man?

- Sup man.
See what this type of drivers course is all about?
- Ah, yeah.
(car drifting)
Aw, y'all are too sweet.
Too kind.

- Yep, that's right. - I'll be right back then.
- All right. - Excuse me for a sec.
(guitar playing)
Feelin good feelin good.
- Griffin, this is Andrew Comrie-Picard.
- How you doin man?
- How you doin?
- [Griffin] I've heard lots about you.
- Uh oh.
All lies. Today's your lucky day we get to slide around.
- Oh really?
- Yeah.
- This is exciting.
- Good.
- I'm super excited.
- Have you ever ridden in a race car at all before?
- No.
- No?
All right, that's awesome.
- I gotten into like a mustang once.
- Can we do a standing burnout or no?
- Yeah you can.
- I've done a burnout.
- I'd be lying if I said I never did that so. (laughing)
- Oh that sounds purdy.
(rock music playing)
(car revving)
I don't have the words to describe that.
- Cool man.
- What was your favorite part?
- Oh the.
- The rockford?
- The rockford yeah.
- We call that supernova.
- Yeah, I can see why.
That makes sense, that's a very fitting name.
Wow that was like, this much more exciting than
it was sweaty and I'm very sweaty.
That was really cool.
That was super like wow.
(laughing)
Woo!
