Guy talks crap all over youtube. Hes a clown, and if you tell him hes full of it, he'll have his friends troll you.

He compared his car to big red :lol:

Good thing I don't post on youtube. He is full of it. And for an average joe like me to see through his BS....well I guess there are people dumber than me out there. His groupies seem to love him and his cars.:cheers:

I've come to realize over the past couple of years that generally people that routinely post on youtube are the very, very bottom of the internet pile of idiots.

the music is the absolute best in this video of his.

also my favorite is when he says in the original video with his vette "the 700 watt stereo sounds good even at 170mph with the windows down"

has anyone worked out the CdA for a camaro, and what power you'd need to hit 200?

Well -- the whole deal is kind of sad... Because this guy obviously likes "cars"... but is so backwoods that there's no helping him. The crap he's driving and the hp he "potentially" has to work with is just an accident waiting to happen.

Having said that -- he needs to watch some timed mile trials - where there are SERIOUS supercars that can't make the 200 mph club... and the ones that do are so excited that they do the Steve Ballmer monkey dance...

This stock appearing Camaro... sitting up nice and high - with tires I used to use on my 1956 Ford Pickup truck (actually then they were "wide ovals" back in 1969)... would be FLYING once he got past 150 or so... There'd be so much air UNDER the car! He'd be so scared he'd never do it again. There's a REASON he THINKS he's hit 200mph - and it's because at 140ish it FEELS LIKE IT.

LOL
