The drag style tires look good on your Vette, I usually don't like drag tires all that much but on that blue Vette... They look sick, don't change anything. Besides some hp when a tune is available. Luv the channel 👍
For sure *_you must change that exhaust!_* The stock exhaust weights literally 100 pounds.
Thing looks sweet with thoose bad boy wheels on 😈
Oooopsy
Cleetus get in the race against Casey and Rabbit!
8:55
Really hate the new big youtuber’s model of clickbaiting, half showing what we came for at the beginning, then showing 13 minutes of low effort garbage before you show the actual clip. I get you need to make money but I can’t watch channels like this
That looks so sick
There's just something wrong with the blue seat belts. All the other blue interior is classy, but the blue seat belts just don't look right.
Cleetus... u are soo cool....while watching u an James driving...I was thinking would u let James take it home and maybe show it off to the wifey...and no longer than 2mins later you said JUST THAT! What-a-guy!! Lol
Please, someday put mud tires on it. Just for the laugh & a photo at least.
C8 wheels look awesome! Gotta be a riot drivin’ that thing!
Is that the L3 model? Great video. Thanks.
Cant u put abs on kill switch to be able to heat up the tires. That is why you cant really burnout right?
The front wheels do not look good
Is the the original rapid blue from the factory ? Or a custom color and if so what color it really pops out !!
I have the Camaro ZL-1 1LE does the vet have the same motor super charged 6.2 L
What happened to neighbor
Drag set up 1000%
I want a video or 2 on your Dad's Camaro. Its sick!
Take it next door for a 1/4 pass on a tire! I dying to see what she'll do.
I love the wheel set up!
Wider fronts and keep the back they look awesome and different from any one else
Ewwwww the C8... DDE already modded and sold their C8. Nice mid life car for the dads of the 80's... Id rather not watch c8 shit. 👎👎
How does cletus have a hedge found left to him? How does he afford all this shit
That would be such a bitch to work on with that engine tucked in like that
🇺🇸🏁 I concur with James, yet would take the wheel debate a step further... 3 - 4" wide front wheels with front-runners 👍🏻 💯 ✔️ 🏁 By the way.. where is the faux chute?!!
Hell yeah brother!!!
LOL. That just got me thinking. All these rich people over there in Hollyweird go out and buy these super cars and try and drag them down the strip at slow speeds and end up tearing the damn thing up. You would think um Super Car: Made to go fast, Sports Car: Made to look fast and cruise the strip , Luxury Car: Made for comfort and cruise the strip. I'd love to be a mechanic in these big cities with big money and short streets.
So, first c8 for sale at a norwegian web site.. 281k usd is the asking price for one, not crazy specced either 2LT... Shit makes me depressed to live in this overtaxed country😪 either that or someone trying to make a buck out of a rare import.(none currently on the road here in norway at the moment)
Love the wheels! Not a fan of the skinny up front for daily driving but regardless, they look sick!
2.9 seconds 0-60? doesn't matter what it looks like lol
Look at street speeds 717 twin turbo c8
this is NOT a corvette what a disgrace
U need to get th 2019 model a strip it like leroy and make a 6 segond drag car
Love drag setup front wheels just need wheel spacers to bring out the front tire just a little bit. It will change everything.
Am I the only one who “joined” the channel? I don’t see any other badges! Cmon guys, it’s only $6.99 a month to support our favorite team!
Nice
Man forget red, this blue is eye seering! Love it with the blue interior!
"It's got some pickup…"
transmission can't handle much more horsepower anyway, good choice not bothering at the moment
9:06 how is cleetus gonna wear a helmet in this car lol
14:02 i got so excited when he said "shut the gate one time and see what happens"
would be even better if you pulled the motor put in a twin turbo lsx js :)
Dad's Camaro is drop dead gorgeous btw. Love that silver and the body man is arrow straight.
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL HAS IT 4 DAYS ... LESS THAN 2,000 MILES ... "In case we have to do anything to it, we'll just drop the motor out the bottom ... " !!!!!
Love the c8 wheels just get some wider fronts
Did I miss the size wheel and tire in the video of the new rears vs the factory?
2.9 holy.
New stance is sick.
Corvette Ute.
That's a gorgeous car, mate. It looks awesome with the drag radials; I say keep 'em!
Love the wheels.
Love the tires
Need to have Adam come to ff and run a time in his Evo
I like the drag set up look., Probably rides better on the taller side walls too.
Another FIworldr already has a TT C8. So, it can be done...
And it’s already being recalled 😂
Awesome wheels!
C8 looks sick what amazing car, just get the rear spoiler rapped black :-)
You don’t need to mod it at least not with twin turbos. Don’t fix what ain’t broke.....They spent 100s of millions developing these cars just for someone to ruin it. Buy a crashed one and mod it
The only thing to change is the lock button placement so Maddie doesn't lock the keys in it again 🤣🤣
Smurf mobile
Them wheels look rowdyy
I bet if you go directly to the Freedom Factory and of course take “Nelly the blue bonnet bomber” with you then take a green water hose.. turn on the tap and apply liberal amounts of water to the burnout pad then you could definitely baptize the new ride and especially those Mickey Thompson’s with a nice burnout (a very very short one if roll far enough away from that water because it did just hook on the hwy like it might possibly hook in a mud hole 👍🏻” Ya that name “ Nelly the blue bonnet bomber” was off the ole cuff and probably won’t work. It is so beautifully blue and the way it threw your head back just makes the words “Blue Bomber” come to mind and that’s a shorter name. The whole Bonnet thing came from the Brits and Australians calling “the hood” a damn “bonnet” and that one has a unique “bonnet” at least for a Chevrolet so my mind thought bonnet. Yep makes very little sense I know 🤯. Peace and whatever you name it “shit I hope you haven’t already named it in video I missed ... if so the Haters in the FIworld comment area here will inform me of my mistakes I’m sure” it’s most def a Cool ride.
Sorry. I just can’t leave a comment without getting long winded and basically typing a damn novel. I do try 😂 Peace
Cleetus, what size front and rear tires and wheels? What Brand? Did you have any problem with the traction control? What setting did you use and are you shutting the TC off and shutting the Stabilitrack off. Need tips for my C8 and I'll see you at Bradenton.
Love the wheels and tires. Beefy
all the bantering at the beginning was hilarious. name that bitch Arby's and keep the meat..
Bead locks? Hope you're running nitro-methane on that thing or something because the "Honk if Parts Fall Off" '67 CrewCab Chevelle runs 7's on steelies...
Pull the mufflers off a install twin turbos
Cleets it's widely known that GM has the ecu heavily limiting torque output during break-in. Tadge described it in relative detail to Jay Leno when they were test driving the convertible. Think he said it was reduced by about 15%.
Yeah Emelia is breakin all kinds of stuff.
Yeah but what good is a vette when you cant get road head with that big console in the way?
The stock wheels are ugly and it's all because of the silver lip on black spokes. That looks terrible like that. Your drag wheels are awesome, they look fresh!
How's that scar from when you cut your fingers opening some boxes?
Bad ass with drag wheels
Name the car SmufVett
Does the C8 have a name yet?
James: Yeah dude this thing is (cuts) sweet
Comment dropped nice shoes for sho..
A corvette should do it all , without changing wheels and tires
Quick note, I've heard you call the C8 a REAR-engine car a few times now, but it's mid-engine. I believe that's determined by whether or not the engine is in front of or behind the rear wheels.
You could make it look like a sleeper Pontiac Fiero...
Bad ass wheels
My 2010 Mustang GT was same blue- Grabber Blue, same as 69 or 70 Boss 302
Can you please make a project with an 05-06 nissan altima se-r? That would be sick
Go see the boys at Late Model Racecraft and get the duel turbos
Wheel looks really nice. You have to put it on the dyno and see what kinda power it's putting out and maybe jeremy could play with the tune a little bit. Also, i think that holley should use your car as a test car for ecu's for the future.
love the wheels
The factory look far better. Drag radial on those??
Cleet, the car looks good with the wheels but you have so many drag cars already and this car is designed from factory to be fast on a road course. Why not keep that style? Like James said, you're gonna ruin an already near perfect car by modding it just to do something you can already do with like 5 other cars you have.
Keep the drag set up 🙏🏻🙏🏻 definitely could use a full size front wheel though.
Great video once again.. Keep up the good work guys...
drag pack looks sik IMO
damn a true 2.9 time on the street.
Don't forget to run the wider tire in the front when you're running laps at FF.
Definitely need on of each generation corvette!
I liked this
Really don’t like the stock wheels, the drag front wheels look super cool, rear looks meaty but not as cool as the front.
I got it. Get the 70's Corvettes in White. Red. White. And Blue. Freedom Flies.
