Friskynixon's YT channel gone?

Post image

It appears friskynixon has deleted all of his content and changed his profile picture to static. He's got one of the largest archives of motorsport content on YouTube so this is really sad to see. Does anyone know what's going on? Was he hacked or did he just delete everything?

you know its sad, i dont know if anyone knows about crash data photobase, a archive of literally every motorsport crash ever, well it is gone as well .. it was a security issue but the mods of the website seem to get defensive anytime anyone ask about it and forbid any talk about it… long story short its sad to see history being erased and I dont understand why nixon would delete all his videos…slowly but surely all the old content will be gone to history… i hope he puts the content back up at some point.

One of the worst ones was the racing reference chat forums, there were so many documents and stories posted there that were just erased

The comments section under every race. Ugh. An incredible amount of historical “fun facts” just deleted forever.

Some of the comment sections about drivers were just brutal, namely Danica, Michael Waltrip and John Wes Townley.

I mean in hindsight it seems 2/3 of those deserve it, Mikey tho remains our wholesome TV king
