"Annoying straightaways where money reigns supreme." LOLOL I actually laughed at this, what a fantastic dig, Casey! :)

@CaseyPutsch 3 года назад

You know it!

@CaseyPutsch 3 года назад

A little late coming out, because we were so busy racing, but I think this will be a pretty EPIC little video series. What did you enjoy the most?

@realbigtuna667 3 года назад

All of this was awesome. Thanks for all you do. We need more of this mentality in racing.

@calebdean 3 года назад

My favorite was the in car footage

@nickyz9925 3 года назад

Exactly all the stuff I want to see. Driving footage, setup, and some car detail. Nice job Casey

@parkitplo3575 3 года назад

Casey, I liked the brake pedal travel check at the end of the long straight... almost looked second nature to you.

@rotorblade9508 3 года назад

On board is awesome, one of my favorite engine sounds, but the rest of the video is very exciting it has very interesting info as well The shape of the car with those old style wheels makes it look glorious. The color is so cool

@timhamilton5699 3 года назад

seeing Casey's footwork on the track is impressive. It makes me sad that so few OEMs are offering cars or trucks with a manual shift (with a clutch pedal).

@SALEENS7GTR5 3 года назад

It seems like more manufacturers are offering a manual option on newer cars solely because they can afford to do so. Since the majority of their sales of SUVs/CUVs have given them so much head room to develop other, more sporty options, they can afford to justify giving cars manuals for the smaller batch of people that will still want to buy a car with one. However, in terms of a specifically new, affordable manual sports car, really only Subaru/Toyota and Mazda are offering any sort of option.

@mmonkeyman1403 3 года назад

Unfortunately I just don't think there's a super good reason for them to exist anymore. I have one, but I dont think it makes much sense to offer them on every vehicle when automatics are as good as they are now.

@idrisddraig2 3 года назад

Sorry USA, most cars sold in Europe are still manual. In japan it's similar to the USA except for poverty spec (Company/work) vehicles which are all still manual.

@iswinkels 3 года назад

Notice he checks the brake pedal feel at the end of the quicker sections of the track before entering the braking zone. That could also be to transfer weight in the car before entering the corner too.

@NoteSmoking 3 года назад

Are we going to talk about the heel-toe downshift?

@ceremyjlarkson9475 3 года назад

Now this is what we like to see! Racing content from you is awesome!

Wait you're overtaking a Porsche 935 like that? Mindblown. I really liked this video I really wanted to see you on the racetrack. Good job! Epic!

@xxFormula1989xx 3 года назад

My first race was driving 8hrs to NASA Nationals at midnight at Mid Ohio, leaving from Central IL after an all night thrash prepping the car, to just barely make tech the next morning with my buddies '86 AI LS/T56 swapped Camaro back in 2003. I've been hooked on road course ever since. I'm now 41, but life happens and I've been unable to get back to it. I'm currently building a 1990 Firebird Formula 350 for track days, possibly TT eventually, while keeping it vintage retro with period correct upgrades. It's an awesome opportunity your giving these guys in both racing and aviation. As a racing, engineering and aviation geek myself, I've been following along and really enjoy your content.

@wendybrissault8054 3 года назад

the Mustang is cool and all, but shout out to the Yenko Corvair on the bay over!

@kevinhibbard320 3 года назад

Yeah bud, love Corvairs. You see that 4x4 that they built out of a corvair wagon over on Matts off road recovery?

@wendybrissault8054 3 года назад

I did! Kinda hits me in the feels seeing a rare body style being chopped up, but also happy to see more are being done with them. I love my 63 and can't wait for the rain to stop to daily her again.

@omarbouaarfa7895 3 года назад

I haven't seen the video yet... But F&€#&@ yeah.... Go Casey! So much respect for all the work and logistics that goes into these videos and making those young engineers both better people and engineers. If you could hit up the crew that makes cartrek or petrolicious or whatever big car channel there is... I genuinely believe your content could blow up (not that it is the point) Lots of love all the way from Budapest

@ScottJ175 3 года назад

Yes, great video indeed. Loved the interaction with John demonstrating how to smack talk without being jerks.

@CaseyPutsch 3 года назад

Yes! That was what I was hoping for from a youtuber collab last year, but it quickly went badly. Jon is an upstanding sportsman!

@ScottJ175 3 года назад

@@CaseyPutsch I admittedly am not much of a smack talker. It can very quickly go too far and just become annoying. I personally detest interpersonal drama and any content or entertainment that uses it as the primary focus is something I have no interest in watching. See most "reality" content on channels like History and TLC for examples. In this case you did just enough to be fun without being annoying.

@hilanddoug 3 года назад

So glad you didn't try to cram everything into one video! Great interview with John- he's a great sportsman. I know what's coming in the rest of the series, and it's all so much more exciting than this exciting video, that it ought to be against the law. The only thing I don't know- was Hamster riding with Taylor and did he get cell video out the back window of the rain? lol...

@CaseyPutsch 3 года назад

Not sure on any video. Hamster was in the truck. Thanks again for being part of the weekend with us Doug!

@leonleeds534 3 года назад

Know it's been said, but that mix of left and right foot braking is a real skill, last time I messed with left foot braking it was the car stood on it's nose every time. And how you switch left foot from clutch to brake mode so naturally is cool to watch

@CaseyPutsch 3 года назад

Thanks!!

@papacapra1908 3 года назад

I’ve been waiting for this one! I like how you did the Top Kart USA commercial during the warm up B roll. Nice work!

@CaseyPutsch 3 года назад

Glad you liked it!

@alloriginaltone 3 года назад

Getting ready for a race is a serious amount of work no matter where or what you're racing. I really enjoyed the discussion between Casey and his Genius garage team about the behavior and setup of the car. There's a lot "said" and considered with very few words exchanged. This requires a lot of experience. Seeing the feet while driving is great.

@mother.russian 3 года назад

I love these videos! Not only because I can see you racing and the movements and actions you do, but also because of the technical stuff that typically goes on behind the scenes. A truly special and exciting perspective!

@redporschekilla 3 года назад

Casey, I love this banter amongst friends. You look quite spiffy in your Steve McQueen Overall!! As much as I can appreciate all things racing, and surely the Mustang. The Corvette takes the cake. This legendary livery and the #, priceless!! I loved it, when "The Intimidator" raced the a Corvette in that livery with his number at the Daytona 24h back when... Great content as usual, keep rocking that boat, love it, love it, love it!!

I was there on Saturday. Hard to believe, but I saw Jacob sleep through the Trans Am 2 race lol! The Mid Ohio Vintage race is one of my favorite events to go to. Many different classes of cars racing, very little down time between races, everyone is friendly and the paddock is open to public so you can see the cars up close and talk to mechanics and drivers.

@ScottsSynthStuff 3 года назад

Casey, do you not have cooling ducts to your front brakes? On the Corvette I crewed on (very similar to yours) we had the intakes on either side of the air dam plumbed directly to the back side of the rotors. Oh, and very impressed with Gavin's analysis of the suspension/braking. Kid knows his stuff.

Yes, but the air has to go out too. :)

So are you feeling out the brakes or pumping them to prime before the corners? I noticed you give it a couple pumps with the left foot before sliding over to the clutch.

@brieee28 3 года назад

Why do you check your brakes before braking into a corner, and how can you do it without actually slowing the car down? Do you leave space between the pads and rotors to check for pressure or something?

@CaseyPutsch 3 года назад

after hard cornering the bearing play can make the rotor push the pads back...
