The interior of that car is AWESOME!!
Hopefully GM is watching this channel. It looks like he's tracking his cars more than anyone else. Would be a good vehicle to study the effects of abuse.
Agreed - buy his back when he's done abusing it, make him a good offer on a Z06!! It's some of the best advertising you can get for a C8.
100% agree with both comments!!!!
Tracking is not abusive.
@@francisdrelling4060 oh yea. You go out and run 6 miles this afternoon and come back and tell us how you feel tomorrow
John D While I agree with your statement on using this C8 as a vehicle to study, their is a difference between running 6 miles for exercise and tracking your car.If you run for 6 miles and come back home, you'll be exhausted, but all you gotta do is rest for a day or two and you'll be back to normal, running 6 miles wouldn't make your life span shorter, but, actually longer.Versus tracking a car like the C8 would only be abusive to it if you did it continually, and didn't cruise and let the car relax and take care of it correctly.This car was made to be tracked and Chevrolet put a lot of money into developing it, also this is the first year of the C8 Corvette meaning it could have issues down the line that Chevrolet will have to fix on newer year C8's.
Most underrated automotive RUclips channel out there. Keep up the great work!
100% Fact & he is far mature for his age! Lol especially when you compare him to these other RUclips clowns that all they do is street race & do car giveaways to rake in more subscribers, $cash$ & sell more of their own merchandise. I could name several but do not won't to use Speed Phenom's thread to spread negativity. His comment section is one of the few I see that seems to always generate positive & knowledgeable comments. I like that. Being an adult I think we should act like adults & not stir the pot for drama.
You've come a long way from those baby faced days Speed! Always have some great content.
Wow, some of the best videos on RUclips and i don't say that lightly...
Not a 'drifter' fan so I definitely enjoyed the first half of the video a whole lot more than the last.
Great video Speed that car is awesome!! Plus it was really cool to see Joe Gatt out there with you. Love the colors of his track pack!!👍 keep up the great content!!
Impressed with how the C8 kicks the rear end out. Especially since it’s not made to drift lol I’m sure it takes some driving skills though.
Apparently its pretty hard, although here we see that since his tires are worn out it kicks out
Weasle yea it seems that way. Right around the 14 minute mark it looked like it was natural for it to kick around but I’m sure it’s hard.
Well nothing is really made to drift, especially from factory, it all comes down to weight distribution which this car has... most drift build get a Chevy LS motor shoehorned into it... if anything this car just needs a Hydro brake and an angle kit and it’s damn near perfect drift missile...🔥
No downforce/tire compared to similar MR supercars
@@replynotificationsdisabled he was just running on worn tires. The C8 is usually extremely difficult to get into a full drift due to it's high amount of traction
Once again not disappointed. Your driving is top notch. No man can say otherwise!! Impressive young Jedi👍
And now he can drift too!!!
Man your damn good driver. That car sounds so intense. It's performs so good god damn you drive awsome
alex awada I was thinking the same thing 😎, but at this point that’s not a big surprise!
Just curious what makes em a "good" driver
This young man's track knowledge is better than a lot of guys twice his age! GM and Ford should have him on the payroll for promoting their products💯
Agreed!!!
I’m so impressed by the New C8!!! Great job on the camera work and editing! I’m a new fan!
Wish I could be your passenger! You should have a contest for a ride along on one of your track days?!?!
Where is the GT500 footage? Want to see it on track to see how it stacks up; we all know it can do burnouts and donuts.
Crazy I look for your video the positive energy you always have love it
Now tell me how many other You-Tubers would have driven that track with the camera towards their faces while they talked. When this dude drives on camera you feel transported there.
I love this kid !!
He is amazing isn't he? When he yells after the back slips and he catches it you feel it. He did that in another video.
You’ve got that c8 down. Always good to take the daily driver to the track.
Good job all around
You should be racing professionally
Absolutely despise "drifting" complete waste of valuable tires and resources. Having said that;
Dude, you are a very impressive young man. Keep at it, learn from the best, you have a great present and an even better future!
@@BigVision1 Well I said drifting not driving, but, yea, people who actually use their brand new cars with brand new tires (not bald tires that have 50k miles on them) are wasting valuable resources. If you like drifting, more power to you. Go buy some bias ply tires and drift until they explode.
Great content and video! Mad driving skills! Keep up the great track content! Don't stop!
What I like about these vids, is getting to the point, or talking about the car, not like daily exotics where 4 dudes hang out and talk for 30 minutes, and the video is 31 minutes long
Loved this video!!
Excellent C8 content AGAIN ! I agree your driving is top notch.Time after time you keep showing us Just how good the New C8 really is ! We love it !
Hi Speed Phenom I am very impressed with your driving skills and I always enjoy your content weather you are in the GT 500 or the vette . But what is puzzling me is how come no raving company has not been after you. If I had own a racing company you would have been one of my driver's...God Bless and thank you......
Whether
Awesome, can't wait till you get a hold of a C8 ZO-6!!!
Can’t believe it costs around £65k. Minimum £58k. Rlly cheap for a super car like this. Amazing
$58,000 to around $80,000 fully loaded. Not sure what it'd be in the UK with all the import taxes added on and such.
Liberty and Justice it’s the same just in pounds
Some import shops in Europe are asking around 120k € for the c8.
Ian Willmott then what is it
@@sk9zero808 A mid engine sports car. 0-60 isnt everything.
Once the z06 Corvette comes out its going to be game over period
You mean ....ZR1? 😏👍🏼👍🏼
SVT Vasquez - no its not you idiots need to stop saying that it’s going to be super competitive in its class. But there will be supercars that will outperform it
@@CoyoteFTW when are you fighting again senator
@@CoyoteFTW Of course, There isnt a car made yet that has all corners covered! So your IDIOT comment is kinda Lame! It wont break any top speed records or even close. It may be pretty good accel car along with being a pretty good track car. Is there a problem that you cant see that? And for the price point, YES, It WILL put a lot of exotics to shame!
These are amazing VLOGS! I love the track driving.
Another great video. The track videos are definitely my favorite.
Once again, flat-out amazing content.
Thank you for the track content , I love it! Its so much better than a lot of the other channels on here doing nothing but donuts and racing through tunnels on the streets of LA illegally, because they think they are the Fast & Furious sending out the wrong message to viewers. Nor do you feel the need to ruin your cars with childish looking wraps that only appeal to 12 year-old kids playing Forza on their X Boxes.
How does he cotinue to add new skills like its effortless. Awesome job!
Wow!! You're doing great with content and driving skills.
Thank you so much Bryan!
Love your work dude.
God has given you everything you need to be the best! You are so comfortable in front of the camera. Your enthusiasm makes your video's very watchable and your track skills are excellent and will only get better! Are you the next Randy Pobst? It sure does look that way. Peace!
Great quality work you put out. Keep it up bro 👍🏽
Another great video ! Thank you.
What a fun packed, interesting video! Awesome camera work too!
Awesome video, excellent content!
I need to learn to drift my mustang a bit before it ends up on the fail compilations 😄
Yours has Independant rear suspension though so you can’t spin out as easily
it wouldnt be hard to drift better than them cars in that video,maybe its the cars or the drivers
@@aidanddd22 Oh yes you can!
🤣🤣
Great vid' man, very entertaining.
Speed Phenom Awesome Video I'm glad you had another great track day I'm impressed with how Adam drifted your C8 and that Shelby GT500 Carbon Fiber Track pack and Congratulations on getting 123k Subs
Thanks Josh! Adam is a phenomenal drifter!It was actually me drifting the C8 in the video, however he was giving me a few pointers. He was driving Joe's Carbon Track Pack on the drift pad. Looked so cool seeing it slide around!
@@SpeedPhenom Ok my bad you did a Great job
Good job sir great driving, always enjoy your videos, an attention to detail----GM are you paying attention?
@stradman you need to see this
My father got a Elkhart Lake Blue C8. Love the car. We just got it above 500 miles and the redline went up. What an amazing car.
Now all the people that say you can’t swing the C8 or do a burnout can shut up 🤐 thank you bud great video! 😁
Great job
nice good job speed phenom your corvette is good for everyone
Just another great video with real content! I've never drifted a car intentionally (nor on an autocross course successfully), just don't have the tire budget. BTW, who were the two guys you were interviewing?
You got my subscribe and like from the way you drifted the C8 👍🏼👍🏼
Good videos man you make me what the c8 more and more
Thank you!! I'm really glad you like them!
I'm a new subscriber so happy I stumbled upon your channel. love to watch you on the track and especially love C8 and the colour combo you choose. fyi I did see the one you were kicked off the track after the guy told you to sell the corvette. you were amazingly polite considering the lack of respect he showed you and I look forward to more of your content
NO LONGER A PHENOM! I started watching about 2 months after you got the 350R. I have raced competitively since I was 17 and 58 now. You are way beyond your age in car control! You should give racing a try! With a drivers school or two you would be very competitive! Great content with all the track stuff....fun to watch! 👍😀🏁
Hi, big fan of yours, you have great content and proud of your skill, you remind me of me when I was younger, I know you probably see emelia on RUclips with the white c8 she is working the kw with suspension stuff, and with you loving the track the way you do, seems from the work with kw its not harming ride quality and you can get a lot of track benefit with the set up there working on...
You really are a good driver, you rock😎😎😎😎😎😎🤓
No C8 banning at Willow today :)
Yea, I was thinking the same thing....what changed?
@@tmorales4836 It wasn't a "Ford Only" day.
Different event holders. It was not the track owners that kicked him out in the other video, it was the club who rented the track & put on the event he attended. Still in my opinion they were wrong for kicking him out & did it in a very childish disrespectful manner!!!!
The c8 sounds amazing. Damn
Amazing amazing drive love it c8 so good
I once raced this track and managed a few laps on it. I recall the curve coming into the home straight and leaning on the accelerator all the way into left-hander turn one. I recall there being track markers, three, two, one and then the left. I'd tap the brake slightly to bring the nose of my 914 down and then slide into turn one while tromping on the throttle of my little mid-engine 1.7 liter Porsche. The before I knew it, I was into turn two which I recall to have been a constant radius turn, meaning the speed going in, for me was th speed coming out of the turn. All the rest of the turns were looking ahead and attempting to set up the apexes, including the small severe uphill section (I can only imagine the corkscrew!). Then I had to deal with a darn chicane which the PCA people put in. I had the 3rd fastest gross time and fifth overall fastest time for the Novice PCA 914 Division. I'll always remember that event in 1975.
Just watch a video on the C8 that said that you need to add 2 quarts of oil in your transmission before racing. The factory doesn’t add it and it is $100 for the two quarts. It is also a pain to fill. I hope you did that before all of the racing you have done.
I really wanna see this versus a 911 Carrera S on this track! Can’t wait for car of the year comparisons.
MT compared them, the C8 was faster, but the 911 S had better handling and stooping power.
Try to time your C8 against the GT500 track pack
I will make sure to do that as soon as possible! Cannot wait. That's definitely coming your way!
No contest against the GT500 CFTP. The lack of C8 horsepower would show up big time on the track.
I think that the upcoming C8 Z06 would beat the GT500 track packaged Shelby
Maybe you could mount cup tires to your actual Shelby GT500 and track it
Speed Phenom you got two awesome cars and your a awesome driver so 2 hottest cars of the year and good driver the content is fire and is still going to be fire God bless AMERICA!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
awesome
And the Z06 may b the best value for performance c8. Then add Twin Turbos a full complete active aero with track pack aero kit plus all wheel steering and you have ZR1 Track edition This is insane! Oh don't forget the honor of driving a ZORA which will be beyond this. Wow Speachless This guy is a a very good driver!.
Thank you very much. In deed the Speed Phenom. I'm glad someone other than my friends told me they like my C8 poem. Now if we could just get the right person or group to sing it!! AF
Very nice piece of driving! I still need to master Willow Springs on Gran Turismo Sport since I rarely race on that circuit. LOL! If I lived on the west coast and were able to actually drive my cars on that track, I'd probably have a better appreciation for it... assuming I don't wipe-out on one of those turns like I do while playing on GTS. LOL!
Looks like we have a new driving sport to obtain! That's what you call a driver!
Which camera did you use to put on the back of the car? Amazing shots from that can especially when passing the mustang.
Hey fellow 19 year old and fellow Z51 owner. Your videos are awesome with excellent camera work. Your driving is excellent. You have access to a great facility. My driving experience is on hold right now as the tracks near me are still closed. I do plan to take advantage of the Ron Fellows offer before the year is up. The Cup 2 tires are too sticky for drifting and the rubber tends to come off in chunks. What G's is this car pulling on Cup tires? So far on stock street tires I have achieved .94 G's on corner turns without any drama. Can't wait to unleash this car on the track. So keep up the good work and look forward to more great videos, 👍👍👍
This car definitely needs a little more power but damn awesome
I can't imagine how much faster it would be! So cool thinking about it!!
@@SpeedPhenom im thinking you'll have to purchase a Zora when it comes out
Thank you repositioning the camera enabling us to view the speed.
Maybe just a different screen. Thanks.
You should try the same KW coils over that Emelia Hartford used successfully, with the same alignment, just one degree negative camber on the rear and - 2 on the front
Do a video on cost for tracking, fuel, tickets, food, etc
Willow springs. I know it like the back of my palm. Gran Turismo 4 life.
Is it possible to do like a clutch kick while your moving with that transmission in the corvette if you hold both paddle shifters?
You are the only one I've seen so that sucessfully.did you get lights on the dash?
Is it me or does that thumbnail give me goosebumps?
I love your C8 content, your humble demeanor, and high quality media. I have an odd request/suggestion. I went to watch this on the home theater setup to get the full effect of 75"@4k and full spectrum audio I found that there's a *lot* of very loud low-frequency noise coming through your recordings. The wind buffeting was crazy loud, but even in the closed cabin car shots, just your handling of the camera made tons of sub-bass sounds. The bass was overpowering the speech at some points. yes, I turned off my subs, but that took away from some of the engine sound. Could you enable a sub-sonic filter on your recordings? or enable some audio-weighting to reduce the low frequency noise? maybe 20dB down at 40 Hz? Hope I don't come across as nit-picking your awesome channel - maybe it's just my setup? And how many sets of Cup-2 tires have you gone through already?
So how did the carbon track pack stack up to the vette around the track?
C8 begging for a more technical track to really show its handling capabilities. Would love to also see it on tight mountain road.
Hey Speed Phenom here's a comparison if you're able to make it compare the gt500 in standard form vs the zl1 in states form to the limit and see which is truly the best muscle
There been few ppl that have attempted to drift in a c8 but the traction kicks on
The rear end sending power mostly to one tire an its Cutting power drifting, Vett not a drift car but a awesome track car but I've noticed on the track when you push it hard in the corners the front end wanted to slide off the track. Possibly needs more down force up front
Has to be a challenge to drift a car that is designed to hook up. That is why laying rubber/burn outs etc. is so difficult. Skid pad G forces, perhaps takes a master driver. You are as good as anyone at the C8. Tire changes; wheel set up, etc. AF
SP.. what car do you fancy the most on this track?
Shelby or C8
Thanks
We are anxiously waiting for your Shelby GT350R VS Corvette C8 w/. Cup tires, track H2H. Which one would have a faster lap time?
How do you sign up to use the track at willow?
Look at the Willow Springs Raceway official website and check out their calendar. They show a list of upcoming open track days you can sign up for. Such a fun track! Prices range, usually I see it costing around 200 dollars.
Speed Phenom cool thanx
I love both cars but still, nobody seems to be tracking the GT500 with the carbon fiber track pack. That's something I'd like to see.
So on normal tires you have to do some cooldown period between drifts, or else the tire will overheat and seperate like that.
If you let the tires cool a bit more they will still wear but won't flake apart.
You should try it in sport mode instead of track mode with traction and stability turned off. In my C7 Cuts power constantly in track mode when trying to do a donut but in sport mode it works for some reason. Chevy dude did a video as well with the C8 and he did the same thing
Anyone else afraid in the event of a crash, the passenger airbag will send that camera right to the rider's face? Granted he has a helmet on.
Do the Cup 2's wear better on track than the PS 4's did that first time you went out? That looked like it might be a problem with this car.
The Cup 2s are very good for the C8! It all depends on how hard you push the car. All track cars go through tires pretty quickly it seems like... The main thing I need to make sure to do is constantly switch the wheels on either side to make sure to get the most life out of these tires as possible. But overall the Cup 2s lasted around two and a half track days while driving hard. The stock PS4 S tires still look brand new. For track use the main recommendation I can give is to use the track alighment settings found in the owners manual, it helps with wear a lot.
Look at dde you have to pull the lever for park up and hold it till all settings click off
What did the CFTP run?
Now that you have honed your driving skills, how about you driving the GT500 & C8 for best lap times? I have a feeling you can improve the GT500 times.
Willow - 1975 - 914 1.7 liter stock. 97 mph was all I could get heading into turn one. One quick tap on the brake for temp. shift of weight to front and floor it and fling it sideway. Never could pick up enough speed to get int that turn 2 right-hander, which I recall was a constant radius turn. (In most cases the speed going in translated to the speed coming out. No matter how many times I attempted to increase the speed in the constant radius turn, the turn just laughed at me. AF
we need your c8 times on other circuits
Witch engine blew first?
Anyone else here spiderman (parkers) personality and voice in this boys voice lol
