Re: does anyone know whos car this is?

Looks like he just took 10 years off the life of the car in 1:38. I'd never treat my car that way.

Re: does anyone know whos car this is?

Thanks for the compliment on the hood. I wish I had money to burn. And people wonder why our cars end up the way they are. Tear up one and then get another to tear up. Thanks again guys.

Re: does anyone know whos car this is?

there are a few people that asked the guy about the car on youtube and from what i read it was his brothers car, other than that i cant seem to find pics or any other info. it appears the wheels are 19s or 20s obvious ss hood but that exhaust sounds way too mean for stock or even well built 350 im thinking ls1 or could it be a loudmouth setup.

there is flat out no way i would beat my car like that, but man it looks like some fun

Sometimes, money or not, people just treat a car, as a car.

Re: does anyone know whos car this is?

i cant say im a fan of the big rims, never have been and i stand firm in that. definitely doesnt have the sbc sound so i think your right with the ls1. i know that as slp exhaust is damn near the same as the one the guy has on his car as well

Re: does anyone know whos car this is?

Wheels are 19 inch TSW Volcano. They have the 4th gen offset. The wheels are discontinued. The car use to be on TSW website under car showroom. Now they only show 5th gen camaros. The owner is a member here z281le. He posted one pic of the car back in 2007. He hasn't posted on here since 2009. I love that car also!

I don't know what some of you are whining about. First of all that was bad a##. Second, not your car. Third, he cut a 40 dollar bumper. Boo flippen hoo. These are third Gen camaros. Not third Gen vettes.

Re: does anyone know whos car this is?

At the end of the video you can see they are at some type of shop and there is clearly an abundance of tires around. Maybe they were gonna put new ones on and were just having some fun with the old ones? Or put some junk ones on?

Either way it's a nice looking car and they really weren't doing anything to hurt it.

Re: does anyone know whos car this is?

maybe he has sfc's, upper strut brace & suspension mods, thats a SLP exhaust, the same ill be running on my Formula, but it has 4 tips instead of 2. It also sounds like he has a 4th gen motor in their, anyways cool vid. i rather do that, than have someone plow into me while driving, atleast you can say you had fun in your car.

+1

Take care of the car, but drive it like it was meant at times. Otherwise what's the point of having a muscle car?....then you are just standing there saying LOLITLOOKS GUD RITE GUISE?....
There's a big difference between having respect for our cars while cherishing them, and just plainly putting them on this tall pedestal. In reality it's a good thing we have both types of people, because if mine ever gets wrecked, I'll be buying one off a guy who never drove it other than in 4th gear at 55mph on the highway for 1000 miles a year.
