This ain't asphalt, son. This is dirt. You don't have three-wheel brakes, so you got to pitch it hard, break it loose and then just drive it with the throttle.

Perhaps apocryphal, but an early NASCAR driver -- maybe "Fireball" Roberts -- was supposed to have explained that "understeer" was what happened when he hit the speedway wall with the front of his car, and "oversteer" happened when he hit the wall with the back of the car. Steering by throttle still sounds mighty fun.

What great stories this guy has and such a pleasant attitude and demeanor. When was the last time your passenger was able to "cross their legs" while driving down the road?? OMGosh, no seat belts, bench seats, and VENT windows all going for our Sunday afternoon drive. Loved this video down memory lane. Thanks Jay and thank you Dave!! Jim.

My 64 rambler american 2dr hardtop seatbelts were still a option. When i would get pulled over the cops would try to write no seatbelt tickets and i would show them the option book and show them seatbelts optional. Once I put a 5.0 in it i added old vintage b52 lap belts all around in it

The moments where you can see other, more modern cars outside through the windows or through special "outdoor cam" moments really give off a vibe of a person (or in this case a car) lost in time-space continuum and that one moment where the said person goes to the future and kinda sees stuff around him, but still continues to be stylish and unique just as he had casually been before in what is now considered past. It's difficult to explain.

Handsome Hudson Hornet. Hard to imagine it burning up the track. This'll sound weird, but I love the door click of a well-made car. How did cars of that era manage to pack so much more leg room and luggage space in the same length?

@clone4211 6 жыл бұрын

Its the Dashboard. Older cars from the early 50's had dashboards that were only 6-8" deep and the steeper windshield angle means you can sit closer to it while retaining adequate headroom. New cars sometimes feel like they have 2 foot deep dashboards which are chock full of electronics bulky plastic and the air conditioning ducts. The seats are also configured for a more upright dining room chair seating position in older cars which takes up less floor space than a reclined legs-out racecar position.

Sort of. My 1950 Chevy, admittedly is smaller when compared to Hudsons and Cadillacs, is the exact same external dimensions as a 2010 Toyota Camry except the Chevy is 3" taller. You would be amazed at how much room is taken up by the pointless plastic trim in new cars.

@williestyle35 6 жыл бұрын

Kyle you are so right. So many newer cars have wasted space for the plastic trim and interior styling elements. So often when I sit in a new vehicle, the artificial built up hight of the console on the center tunnel is ridiculous and intrudes into my leg room.

Mostly these older cars are bigger than modern ones but on the inside newer cars have to conform to many more safety regulations so they pack them full of tech making cabin space smaller

My Dad and my Uncle Nelson owned Hudson's. My first experience at high speed in Dad's Hudson was before I could walk. Dad , Mom and I were on our way to Illinois when Dad blew a tire and took off across the California desert. Because it was so low the car didn't flip over and we all lived. My Uncle never used 2nd gear in his. 1st to 3rd for ever. I can still remember the "Star" on the end of the shift lever. I would stand on the front seat between my Mom and Dad.

Maximum, maximum, maximum they go and gone far beyond the scope of relating to production cars. I've wished for years they dropped the engine configuration down to six cylinders of most any shape.
