As much as I'd love /Drive to succeed with what they're doing... I'm definitely not upset that Chris Harris is branching off to do his own free content.

The irony is that he was the deciding vote to make /Drive pay subscription based.

The other people on drive weren't happy with how he left. Personally I think he should have stayed at least a year.

The irony being that he was the deciding vote on putting up the pay wall.

Ohh the guys of /Drive, they can still do no wrong in my books.

Or talked about leaving with ANY of his coworkers before he did it. I love every video he's ever made but that's just a dick move.

Also has his leggy E30 Sport Evolution for sale for a hefty 92,000 pounds only 8 months after buying it.

I like the idea of him doing his own free content. Do we know if he's sticking around with /DRIVE for the NBC content? The show is regurgitated original /DRIVE stuff but they won't have that forever.

J/W, where'd you get the info that he was the deciding factor? During one of their AMA's?

In which episode do they discuss it? Has he completely severed ties with them, or is he going to do both in the short term? I'm sure the issues they had with licensing the content in Europe factored into his decision.

He just up and quit, completely as far as I know. I believe it came up with the everyday driver guys on episode everyday consistency.

Yeah, maybe someone at NBC got wind of it and told them to take it down.
