Yeah but that is a soulless electric transportation appliance that your grandma can drive fast…meanwhile the men are driving real cars, take that weak sauce back to where it belongs we talking about drivers cars not appliances.
No real car guy want's a Tesla. Yeah they are fast but they are also boring and soulless once you get past the party tricks, ZZZZZ. Nobody is cross shopping an hshift V8 sedan that makes you feel alive and an appliance with four wheels.
Does anyone out there have a problem with parasitic power loss if you let your Corvette sit for more than a week does it go dead? Does parking it in reverse with a manual transmission stop the parasitic power loss problem if anybody can help I’m all ears.
I hardly comment but I just wanna say man.. this was a great video. I own a '07 C6 and hearing you talk about it made me appreciate it more. Love hearing others opinions on Corvettes and you did a great job bringing up the history and changes through the years.
So that Corvette was actually supposed to go to Will Powers for winning the indy 500 that year. As part of the prize package. To be delivered after the season. So unfortunately he had to settle for the back up car.
@@Motorsportsgeek The LS seven is the only car that needs work done to it. Every other LS doesn't have that problem so I don't know if you're agreeing with me or you're trying to argue or what because you said exactly what I said 427 made out of an LS three is going to be cheaper than buying a straight up LS seven nobody arguing that point pal the only bad thing about the Strokers is they don't rev is high with the longer stroke
@@oler777 All they need is a valve job. There were 2 different factories where the LS7 heads were manufactured and one of those factories produced flawed heads. There's no way of knowing which factory your LS7 heads came out of so you are forced to do a valve job on any LS7 but other than this factory defect, they are bulletproof like any other LS. This head issue has just been blown out of proportion people now think they are unreliable. I simply corrected you since you didn't mention it was a cheaper option but more reliable which if you compare a stock factory flawed LS7 you are correct but by now people are aware of this issue and have them fixed making them just as reliable. Definitely more expensive hype drain as you call it.
@@Motorsportsgeek It being cheaper was supposed to kinda already be said seeing as a base LS seven cost $20,000 Thats a 50/50 to me when i hear that Also, you can't forget about the harmonic balancer and weak torque tube bushings this gave me a good laugh. It reminds me when people used to argue about the 300 ZX reliability and say it's just a timing belt the engines fine that's the only problem. Not knowing the entire engine needs to be removed if you're going to doGOOD job and replace all the rubber hoses and bad nissan parts
@@oler777 Its the same torque bushings in all 1996-2013 vettes and all harmonic balancers are the same on LS engines. They all fail and are a weak spot, nothing specific to LS7
Saying ‘Mike Mike’ instead of millimeter turned me off of the video. Contrary to what you may think, it doesn’t make you sound knowledgeable, it just makes you sound stupid.
I watched these as a kid at CFB North Bay! Totally awesome to see doing touch n go’s in formation 2x2. The ground shook when the went into burner mode!!
The car performed so well that LeMan changed the rules to effectively ban the Ford GT40 and that was the last time an American manufacturer won LeMan Until the fucking NASCAR team showed up this year and won everyone’s hearts
Hes pronoucing the Canadian way, not American way. Example color is US spelling, in Canada its spelled Colour, also Canada is on the British system of schools not the American system
