Cars - For Car Enthusiasts

I just want to see and hear it just once, and maybe drive the crap out of it on track until they demand their car back.

Ohhh yes! Look, I'm not an EV enthusiast but this car might change my mind. I love the way it looks from every angle. Just needs a trapper keeper background to complete the look.

When a safety car needs a safety car!

I had no idea this type of valve was a thing. Interesting to learn a little about. Maybe something like this would make electrically controlled variable timing more viable and thus improve the efficiency of ICEs?

AI driving real race cars, and just as much of a mess as you think it would be lol!

I've struggled with the rear end of the C8, it's just too busy on every trim. This rear end looks fantastic. I'm not sure about the rest yet but the rear end is an improvement to me.

Howdy, I finally took the time to make a one lap video with no identifiers of myself or other drivers.

My lap time was 2:31, in the simulator I can get a 2:07 in the same car so I left a lot out on the track. In the sim there is no break fade and on track I could get 2 or 3 really hard breaking zones before I'd start to experience fade.

My fastest lap on the day was a 2:19 mostly due to the break fade. I have good video of it but the audio is just wind, and the only laps I did with the GoPro on the rear of my car for good sound were pretty casual laps. So I took a casual lap and paired it with the audio.

I'm going back in September for my last outing of the year most likely, then likely working on better breaks and cooling system as I could only get about 5 laps full out before I had heat soak issues and needed to pull into the cold pit to let the car cool off.

Fantastic track, quite technical. I put about 150 laps in the simulator before I went out and I'm glad I did. While there is pretty much nothing to hit, a few off camber turns and a few late apex turns would have thrown me into the weeds otherwise.

That cold open though!

Until this video I'd never heard of a scotch yoke engine. I know this is car enthusiast not engine enthusiast or engineering enthusiast so I'm not sure if anyone else will like this. But I sure do!

This is plated and street legal, can you imagine seeing it in traffic?

First time I've seen an atom in person. They are supposed to be an absolute riot on the track!

They're both gorgeous! I would have loved to hear them rev the engines just once.

As a former owner of a 370Z I want this car to be better. It looks the part, but it's performance at that price just doesn't make sense to me. For this price I can get a used C7 Z06 (with not so desirable milage) which will be a lot more fun and based on my ownership of the 370Z, more reliable too.

I'm not a big Jag fan mind you but another company moving away from ICE all together is interesting. I believe Audi cancelled the R8 in favor of an EV version and the next Dodge Charger Hellcat supposedly will be an EV as well.

My wife's EV is pretty nice, but so far every EV I've driven has been discovered from the road. Like a moving couch instead of a driving experience. Hopefully we'll get some real enthusiast grade sports cards out of this.

What do y'all think?

222 HP per liter in this beast. For comparison the C8 ZR1 is about 194 HP per liter.

I might actually drive a left hand drive version of this as a daily. Maybe the A110S or GT instead?

I watched Family Feud with my grandma all the time as a kid. This brought back some memories.

Come for the Ferrari, stay for the Hoonigan interview. Another channel I love that hasn't been quite the same since Ken Blocked passed, RIP.

When I got my C7 I considered this instead, I still think the C6 is the most "Corvette" looking of the era which is a good thing particularly if you upgrade the exterior lights.
