🤣😂🤣😂

I hunted for this comment😂😂

😆😆 Dude was definitely terrified.

Dr's going to wreck that vette. Judging by the way he acted on the pulls, he's never had anything with power before. His head bounces off the head rest every time lol 😆 😂 🤣

@@CoLewGaming definitely true.

Dude I was thinking the same thing. Smh 🤦‍♂️

You are absolutely right he's probably single and trying to catch a woman

Sounds like someone's projecting, and I'm not talking about the guy in the video.

The man said he was no stranger to speed. He'll work his way up to it. 1000+ HP in a light Vett, wheeeewwww!

@@bigsur175 Married with Two Kids in college, have an nice day!

Thats true when im driving my car it dont give me that feeling in my stomach but in the passenger deat it feels alot faster. Maybe its fear of not being in control of the car

Great video! The smile on his face says it all!

@@alexbosiacki I think the not being in control point is valid. Also driving your focused on controlling the car so it distracts you from the feeling.

@@TomokoMurakami I dated a girl called Tomoko a few years ago in Saitama.

@@TomokoMurakami 😳😳😳 oh no!!

automatic, though? yikes

Ya, no shit!

You do get used to it than you want more.....

Right . Its why you see so many 600hp cars wrecked with low miles. People used to driving a 200hp car and then jump in these corvettes and camaro's and hell cats ect and the horse power difference is nothing like they have ever known. Then you bump it another 400hp thats impressive considering I have friends with 600hp drag cars running 10.20ish quarter mile times. Nice dang car

@@kellysmith1516 Yeah speed is something you have to become accustomed too. Over time. I mean I remember what it felt like when I had 160HP in a Civic it felt awesome did 14s in that thing. Then a CRX with 195 HP and that felt super fast 13.6 car. Then the GTR 550 HP 11.86 Car. Once you get into the 11 to 10s your what I call broken into the speed factor the other 9s and 8s do not seem to so crazy. This man had no idea what he was signing up for. He needs to go baby steps he went from like 400 HP to 1200 in zero seconds. Too much for that guy. I was worried he would have a heart attack.

@@sbfhawk4343 Insightful! For those of us who can't afford such things..would you recommend those "supercar" driving experiences? Expensive..but worth it vs finding a local willing to give a ride?? Just looking to give my dad incentive to finish his dream car rebuild that's essentially stalled. '68 Camaro RS/SS His attention to detail at his age has essentially stalled progress..His dream has become mine of him simply driving it.

Really cool to see the audiance of SS717 is far and wide,maybe we see this car on Mikes channel someday.

I'd love to see where you can use 400whp in NEW YORK. I doubt ever he'll go pass 4000rpm.

@@Malficion Its probably at his mansion out in the country.

@@Malficion yeah you clearly aren’t from here lol people like you hear NY and think of Manhattan. Everywhere here isn’t sky scrappers and traffic you dingus

@@MADLITS1K exactly....the fact they said 400whp they were definitely referring to NYC which makes them look like another clueless dipshit. I know of where to use some of this power here on Long Island & at what times to do it lol....But if you are careless you will get yourself in a lotttt of trouble obviously. Now as for Upstate NY I am not too familiar with where would be the best roads to open up a car with this power, but ofcourse NY State is so much more than just the city (which this mayor turned into a fucking jungle)

🤣

100k does not go far when thieves get there share; malpractice insurance, taxes and overhead....

I personally just don’t appreciate butterflies like that and it makes me not want to be a passenger in a fast car, combined with being nervous when being nervous when someone else is driving it makes it not fun. But driving feels completely different and I’ve driven high horsepower cars. 2020 GT500, 2019 ZL1. (honestly depends on level of expertise, this guy from lmr looks very used to this lol)

@@fluffythenut4615 I definitely understand where you’re coming from on that. I honestly don’t like it when I’m not in control lol.

Haha. I was thinking the same thing. Imagine him driving that beast on street tires. smh.

Haha I think you are just jealous

@@chelseastrickland1932 Makes no sense

Hes way too old for it

@@nuclearthreat545 but why is not like his going to be flooring the car all the time. Guys like that use the whole power once in a while they like to take care of there cars. Talking base on my dad his old but he loves going fast once in a while

Yes.

Great point

1000%

Absolutely. I have a ZO6 but I've never been a passenger in but I let my brother-in-law drive my Stingray before I sold it and he scared the hell out of me lol but it didn't help that he hadn't driven stick in a while and I should have never let him drive it

That's 100% correct, I'm scared shit less riding Passenger in a 300 hp V-6, But going 170mph on my Bike, Never bothered me.

lol

Haha the Karen thing you did there was clever lol I have never seen that in the KZfaq comments!

(psst! "hear" is for your ears. "here" is the place we're at)

Nah, video just cannot capture the G's, I promise you it would feel butt clenchingly brutal actually experiencing that for real. I've driven some fast cars in my life but a 1000+ bhp beast like this would very likely still have the same effect on me. If that wouldnt wake you up, you must run something like a Buggati Chirion as your daily driver.

Sitting in the passenger is a whole different ballgame compared to being the one driving tbh

@@edwin7505 yes sir, I agree.

Scared driver is a dangerous driver

@@Bananahammock88 Yes agreed.. but an overconfidant one is even more dangerous.

I was thinking the same thing!!!!

No it won’t that guy will never ever drive it that fast lol

@@Den-nu6pv I agree with you. He bought it to make up for what’s missing and help with the ladies, no intentions on ripping it. Easy to see the psychology of the client

Thats fucked 2 say 😥

Yep😂🤣

I agree. Most people don't understand how much HP 500 actually is. Everyone throws around HP numbers just because their car is a little fast. I remember in the early 2000's when 350 was insane.

@@codylujan in a manual, 350 is still insane.

Rather pull up in a Porsche equally as modded as the vette and smoke him 💨

@@TheBravo13x I'd rather pull up in a American car than a German owned car. Also my buddy owns a 02 z06 stock and just raced a 06 cayman s and smoked it in back to back race.

@@lockonstratos7787 I mean you really can’t compare those two, two totally different classes of cars js.

@@TheBravo13x theyn why did you do it first? With your comment?

@@lockonstratos7787 , beat a Cayman? I wouldn't brag about that.

He just turned 38 this month...... Mr Fereday has looked the same since High School, still 100lbs 🤣

Lol I was thinking the same thing. I remember watching a video with him in it like 10-13 years ago on Supraforums and I'm just now seeing him again recently and I'm like damn this dude looks the exact same!

Steve? I still refer to him as Worm Boy.

You didn't really stretch it out either

Thanks so much for the kind words. Much appreciated.

That's exactly what I was thinking haha

Yeah Dan just wants to do his job and go home lol

That's why he's the coolest and most respected guy there too!

It always feels worse as a passenger

@@stepbro4978 this x10

Gee, maybe the guy didn’t want the guy constantly doing pulls on his car?

what I kept thinking

I’ve had that happen exactly once. Back in high school I had a 73 z28 with the original engine, but it was bored, blue printed, balanced, head work. I was notorious for driving it like a grandma when I had people in the car with me. I took one of my buddies for a ride. About 20 minutes of low speed cruising he finally convinced me to open it up. So I hit the on-ramp on the highway, dropped a gear and laid the throttle to the floor. I hit the end of the ramp and merged at a song in top of 3rd gear near redline. There was a car in the cruising lane and just as I hit the highway the person cut lanes right in front of me. I had maybe 3 car lengths to react. Old cars like that, there isn’t many options, got tiny discs up front and drums in the rear. So all I could do, was lock down the fronts, downshift to get the rears loose and walk it sideways to avoid slamming into the ass end of some little old lady’s Buick. Somehow I saved it from hitting guard rails or her car, even more surprising the motor didn’t detonate and I kept it on asphalt the whole time. My buddy was singing praises that it was me driving and not somebody else because there was no way anyone should have been able to save it. After that I lost all interest in going fast

I know that part of town, with lots of distracted drivers, etc. I love fast cars and driving fast, but driving and accelerating that fast on a test drive on those roads was just not smart. There are plenty of country roads within 10 minutes of there that would have been infinitely more appropriate.

Steve is an awesome guy and he did know exactly what he was doing and he instructed me a lot more that was off camera.

@@JCSPHD How much did all that work cost? Ball park is fine?

@@SteamEnginesUSA LMR's 1,000 HP package on their website is $30K. I upgraded many parts not included in the package such as new beefed up transmission (only 4,100 miles on the original trans), Outlaw racing axles, radiator, Flexfuel sensor and a ton of others, too much to list here. My build is ballpark $50K. Some preliminary numbers were approximately 1,300HP at the Crank and about 1,050 at the wheel. Final numbers to be determined after a few more tweaks and pulls.

Steve no doubt knew what he was doing. There was much more off camera. What was off camera was Steve instructing me on how to tame this beast! Outstanding instructor he is.

@@JCSPHD Thank you. Excellent. I love that car. Well Done.

I thought that was the colour of his face when he got out 😂

I have a 16 Stingray this color. It is my favorite car they offer!

On an ugly ass body

Sounds dumb in that order, how about race night blue

@@svrider2006s Are you kin to Co Pizzle?

😂😂😂

For sure. Something about being in control makes it less extreme 🤘

Thanks so much for the kind words and the encouragement.

Thanks so much, I appreciate your kind words.

@@JCSPHD I just wish I could afford to do what you've done here, A complete major improvement. LMR & staff were so grateful to honor your mod build, Congratulations.

@@mcviegas2566 LMR, the whole staff were friendly and welcoming. I felt like a member of their family while there for the whole two days. It was expensive as I made modifications to the engine, transmission, and rear( axles) The build sheet was 3 pages. Save up and go for it if you can. Again, thanks for the kind words. Much appreciated.

@@JCSPHD Thank you Doctor. Currently I am working towards my 2021 Z06 and I'm taking note of mods C8 owners are doing. All good thoughrs for my own success. Happy LMR ZR1 mod life. Again I love your LMR MOD vlog. Happy Thanksgiving.

@@mcviegas2566 Happy Thanksgiving and good luck with the 2021 Z06. Thanks for the kind words!

Love my 19 V

After the 10th 1000hp build, it starts to become predictable with his muscle memory 💪

We couldn’t agree more! Dr Scary is a super cool customer! We enjoyed his stay while he was here in Houston checking out his ride!

Going to leave the 1037+ whp. I'll get used to in very slowly. Steve is a great instructor on how to drive his builds.

@@JCSPHD GOOD !!! No sense in NOT taming this beast !!!!

Haha, few people have.

Thanks! Steven most recently had Admiral blue 19 ZR1 and then white C8. Currently he has no toys, just his 2018 Denali Dually to tow the trailer.... but I bet he gets another weekend toy soon...

@@LateModelRacecraft has he done anything to his L5P? I almost bought the High Country in an 18/19 dually...

The wing is from Extreme Online Store. They shipped me the stabilizers and I have them. They will be installed when the car comes home. This will prevent the wing tips from dipping at high speed. Good Eye!

....kinda has that "...Fer about the last G.D. time you asshole...get that MOTHERFU#KIN' THING OUTTA MY FACE!!!" look. I was checkin that too. To: Dan From: All of us blackened-hands-on, blue collar types... Be patient, there's a reason why dude's runnin' the Camera and NOT...say...slipping the drivers' side head on perfectly perpendicular to the studs (looks like you might've done that once or even twice before? HA - 👍👍).
