You’ve seen our buddy Brian King’s AWD Cutlass shred the Burnyard, haul ass down the runway at This vs. That, maybe even throw a few car lengths at a pro driver in an LS powered racecar. Larry pops in post-race for an even closer look at the incredible home engineering that went into this thing.

This era Cutlass was regularly the #1 selling car in the US (hard to believe now). Olds was never my cup of tea, but this guy has built the very best one ever. Love the Hurst tribute color scheme, too!

Thank you Brian King! For saving me from building "just another 69 camaro" after seeing your AWD burnout vid I sold all of the boring protouring crap I have been collecting over the years and am now about half way through a trailblazer based AWD/TURBO/divorced transfer case t56 Build and I couldn't be happier!

This is absolutely amazing!!!! So out of the box thinking. Taking a 4x4 truck frame & drivetrain and setting a car body on it is old. However it is usually a 2nd gen Z28, Vett or El Camino sitting on giant tires. For this guy to think about a Cutlass sitting low and AWD is backward and so cool. How this came to him is beyond me. I love this! I am really glad he mentioned it was an Olds Bravia. I had completely forgotten that existed. I have been thinking for a long time about building an 87 Fiero GT, AWD, using a good wishbone suspension set up, with a turbo 6cyl (not V8 to leave lots of room for turbos, intercooler and what not) but keep it all GM products to make it. Now I know a Bavia is possibly an option to try.

Slides in the end shows how wild & harder to control awd compared to rwd if you have “nuff” hp. The dock is a minimum to make you feel safe standing next to awd drifting near you. Which makes me think of Ken Block’s drivetrain choice & his sight proving that its also “more fun” to drive..)

@jordanknute2029 6 ай бұрын

"hey look, a boring looking gutless-cutlass" ........ drops the hammer from a dig ......... "uhhhh" bro this dude dropped a cutlass onto a super obscure olds bravada "because it was neat to keep it olds", then slapped in a trailblazer awd system, somehow strapped a 4L60 behind a goddamn LSX and has it survive, then proceeds to thrash the living piss out of it and I gotta say, its absolutely glorious. The hoonicorn runs a 9.9, when they raced eye test tells me thing thing is in the meat of the 10s. at 3800lbs. with a back seat. with AC. rolling on 255s. hands down my favorite G body build ever. oh, plus he "as a hobby" likes to fabricate carbon fiber....good god man, Brian King, you are in fact a king.
