Take a Ride in my 69 Yenko Camaro - smoking tires through 4 gears

- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- My buddy has and HD camera and I took for for his first ride in the Camaro after we got it put together and the engine broke in. As you can see the Car is extremely Powerful and Fun to Drive! These Yenko Cars were pretty Mean for stock. Enjoy the ride!
Glad im not the only one who immediately questioned the skill of this driver. The car is scary to drive sure, but its even scarier in the hands of this guy.
Love that car. I will have nightmares now of it being abused.
scary to drive? it only makes like 350 wheel 😂
Scary to drive??? Lolol literally any car on the road is faster
Lol this has to be one of the funniest comments
Amateur hr! Lol
I could make a ham sandwich between those gear shifts
george chruszch That’s some pretty funny shit...
george chruszch 🤣🤣🤣
My grandma could knit a sweater.
Hahaha. Yep all the big notes had been spent and all that was left was some "Loose Change" between gears.
Nearly snotted on my keyboard! BAHAHAHA!
Should be titled "smoking clutch through 4 gears"
Derek Zimmerman 😂😂😂😂
Derek Zimmerman you forgot screaming too 😂
Derek Zimmerman your another jealous ricer bitch
Does that make the car jump sideways too...?
3 gears perhaps, but not 4 gears..
Don Yenko is rolling over in his grave. Nice car but bad shifting.
Probably a clone.. to many things wrong with that one..
@@yeseniakrueger1863 Yeah, main thing wrong is the driver.
@@badass6.0powerstroke10 yes he needs learn what the 3rd pedal is for
Oh stop it. Read the description, he just got it broken in and started driving it, maybe he's just learning stick.
@@lobmin I hope the car survives
“I don’t have to do any clutch work”..... Keep telling yourself that buddy😂😂
HA
If you're good at rev matching, you don't need to clutch thru shifts. Truck drivers commonly float the gears in trucks that far exceed a million miles. If it's good enough for an 18 wheeler that weighs 80,000 lbs, it's good enough for a hot rod.
@@gop4usa12 yea but this dudes trash at it
I do believe that's called speed shifting?
@@gop4usa12 semi truck transmissions don't have synchros. Regular car transmissions do. Being able to rev match and clutchless shift in a car is useless and fucking stupid. Doesn't matter how good you think you are at it, you're prematurely wearing the synchros.
Need to learn to shift that thing...
Yeah he does
He may know how to shift it. But it will get out of control if he power shifted probably. The back end would try to come around. If he had slicks it would not be a problem to power shift.
That hurt to watch.
@@jongallant6054, the way he is shifting it is causing it to come loose easier than if he was shifting quick, with less clutch snap.
I’d shit my pants if I heard that thing fly past me
Damn. I think you are the reason they started producing v6 automatic camaros again.
Yuuuuuup
🤣🤣
BAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!
Comments like these are what make you tube great. 🤣
He's probably got the clutch all the way to the floor as he was coasting to the first traffic light.
That car deserves a bouquet of roses and a massive apology..
The suspense between shifts is killing me
Like most great motor cars, the drivers don't deserve them.
No kidding, boys and girls pay attention this is how a wiener drives.
You tube: keep your stinking hands off my comments and STOP deleting them, like the pussified big brother bitch you are...
lemme guess you do though right?
Get a muscle car then drive like a granny . Ok ill write that down ✍️
How does a young kid afford a car like that.sorry I forgot daddy's money payed for it
My 1st car was a 67' SS Camaro,I put a bored 327 with huge cam and dual Holleys,but trouble is,that was 30 years ago!! I knew I would start Jonesing for another muscle car after watching these videos!! I did it to myself!! Oh yeah,I also got a 69' RS-SS 396 4 speed car back in 88',geez these Camaros are my all time favorite cars!!
All these people ragging on you about shifting are just jealous bc they dont have a 427 69 camaro and didnt work to get one. I bet the majority of them have never even driven a stick. Its a sick car man. Thumbs up
Just imagine back in 69 you pick up your brand new Yanko at the dealership they start it for you and that V8 roars to life, man 69 was a good year.
I'm looking at a Torino 69 fastback 351 auto. Thoughts? Should I just save for a Chevelle or Camaro. I think the fastback will hold it's value
For a couple of reasons! : )
2:38 is the most painful, tries shifting like a man and misses 3rd. Too much car for this guy.
Just painful for somebody who learned driving here in Germany with a stickshift... If he would visit Germany we would pity the poor beast he's driving... Sadly we can't really drive a dreamcar like this here because of taxes and the damn fuel prices... Would be fun on the autobahn or our racestracks for sure... But, whatever
PS: excuse my poor English skills if I have gotten something wrong
@MrCarter120 you are soo wrong, if there was a woman driving this would make no difference, its the way he's driving (he basically wrecks the transmission slowly and drives that manual bad in general) that makes car people like us write something like that... We don't expect him be able to drive such a car perfectly, but we expect him to drive a car he can control and learn how not to damage a car worth so much... Maybe he should even get an automatic, because he would have more fun
Guys... remember the video? The guy who accidentally missed 3rd?
Ya because everyone who drives manual doesn’t miss from time to time control your jealousy before running to the comment section
@@doskxjixdlxlx5722 I second this.
Never touched a wrench in his life. Daddy's money gonna be replacing that clutch.
If it ain't in a junkyard by now.
Why is it that when ever someone sees someone with something nice they think their dad bought it? Maybe because they never worked hard enough to have something nice thems.
@@tylerbonser7686 because he can't shift.
@@_Belteshazzar_ yeah I get that he can't shift but why does that mean his dad must have bought it for him?
@@tylerbonser7686 because who builds a car like that and doesn't know how to drive.
I really hate to pick on you but its true, YOU CANT DRIVE A STICK.
But you need to understand I can see the baggaging it's a 427 big block it maybe shit but it could be for a reason yea it could go alittle smoother but itd alot of power
You’ve never driven a stick then I guess, bro. Get off the channel
@@jasonshawver7227 nah
@@jasonshawver7227, been driving manuals nearly exclusively for 30 years, bubba, and I concur; he sucks at driving that Camaro. He's slamming the effing clutch and you can hear he is on the throttle as the clutch goes it. He is going to shock the tires every single time like that! Plus, it's hell on a clutch!
Jason Shawver bud stfu he can’t drive stick seriously he can’t. Like I know 10 other people who drive more horses and shift so much smoother
I can smell the clutch through the screen...
I love the car, and I appreciate your effort, but this is too painful to watch. You gotta work that clutch smoother bro.
You’ve never driven a stick then I guess, bro. Get off the channel
Give him an opportunity to teach him on your car....probably a Honda Civic?
Sounds like it breaks down a little and I’d be surprised if he hasn’t wrecked it by now.
"I don't have to do any clutch work"...about the funniest thing I've heard in a long time ! Well maybe you should do some clutch work and drop it a little sooner between gears instead of the lag... IMO !!
V6 dont count
Camaro Z twentyeight
Give er a little throttle blip to keep the revs up if your a lazy shifter like this, as if your double clutching.
I've got a close ratio trans and I usually gotta stay on the throttle a touch or it drops too far to match nicely......
Yea the speed runs on here ..cringe...lol
MrHillfolk I’m just taught myself to drive stick in my 07 wrangler, you don’t have to take foot all the way off gas to shift?
The dumbest responses I’ve ever heard. Social media is both the best and worst things humans ever invented
Jason Shawver You aren’t lying; I say this all the time!!
This guy's a man's man! Driven like it should! Unlike most of these bores out there. I streamed to my $2,000 sound system & I got a Woody! Thanks pal!!!
To all the geniuses out there who are shift experts, lets see your videos driving like this in traffic.
No, I didnt think so!!
You're kidding, right? Those shifts were terrible, particularly if trying to show off the car.
I remember my first time driving a clutch too.
Pure beast!!! I love how that thing growls, and twist when the throttle is mashed. Everyone complaining about his poor shifting, and wishing their car could act like a yenko! I know I wish mine could!
+ricorob100 The thing is, the one in my picture could. His shifting still sucks ass.
Most genuine comment on here. ❤ u rock !
I couldn't get past the first two shifts... holy fucking hell.
sounds like somebody has never driven a Muncie. This isn't your Civic, you cant bangshift it.
Cant understand why he kept coasting in angel gear let the clutch out and learn to drive manual.
There's nothing better then old school pure power.
Hey that was my license plate
He needs to stick with an automatic transmission! You shift terrible! And I HIGHLY doubt it’s an original YENKO! Clones are a dime a dozen
If that's true I'll take 2 dozen
I only have a nickel, can I get 4?
He needs to stick to video games!
Exactly. I think I've seen more " Yenko " Cameros ,Nova's and Chevelles on RUclips than were ever produced.
FACTS!!😂
Damn,that was painful!
Ahh the look, that sound takes me back to my 70 SS Chevelle. Beautiful!
Maybe he should only be driving something with an automatic transmission!!!!!!!
All of you folks questioning this man's driving skills. That's just stupid tell me you would take a $200,000 hot rod out and just completely floor it and not give a crap what happens obviously this gentleman cares about his car. Yes he could get off of the clutch faster and that would prolong the life of his throw out bearing but you folks who drive kias and hyundais going to criticize just keep quiet why don't you
Yep, it's all painful but a missed granny shift, C'MON MAN, and then floats the valves at 3:42?
nice catch
"float the valves"? Doubtful. More likely a Rev limiter. This is an expensive build and even though the driver clearly lacks experience and skill with a manual it's still pretty hard to imagine anyone would be stupid enough to build that 427 without "safety" against missed up shifts. How-ever give how this guy drives it's not hard to imagine the engine eventually suffers a "money shift" death at some point anyway. No protection against that can built in. He's just gotta learn to shift better.
@@Dogboy1960 yep, you're probably right. A dreadful sound though
It doesn't matter if you love Ford or Chev a screaming motor like that is music to all our ears ! Thanks for the ride !!!!!!
sounds like a timing issue, a fuel delivery issue and certainly a driver issue
Sounds like running on 7 with blown exhaust gasket
Yes or possibly a burned valve. Definitely a dead miss noticeably under power.
i had a buddy in H.S. in the early 70's whose Dad and him built a '70 Nova with a Blueprinted 427 L88. It had 4.88:1 Posi traction 12 bolt rearend with a Muncie M22 Rock Crusher transmission. It had the biggest 60 series tires of the day but would smoke them in all four gears...the thing would do such crazy burnouts that if he was in front of you at a stop light you'd get rubber on your windshield.
I love all the comments saying hes doing it wrong but the way i see it is that hes in classic camaro so hes doing something right
Probably scamming the old people that taught him how to shift...
Doofus
Didn't say he wasn't in a great car....he's just not a great driver.
Don’t take stock in the critics......these are either all idiots that have never tuned, sorted and driven a car like this, or can’t afford one. I can watch the vids over and over. The critics probably own civics that turn 16s on a good day
This guy's a man's man! Driven like it should! Unlike most of these bores out there. I streamed to my $2,000 sound system & I got a Woody! Thanks pal!!!
To all the geniuses out there who are shift experts, lets see your videos driving like this in traffic.
No, I didnt think so!
Quit raggin' on the poor guy ... We've 'all' gotta learn!
Killer RIDE, why is everyone ragging on him? You guys are just jealous that you don't have a beast like that. Brings back memories of my 67. BOWTIES FOREVER
Yea, right.
That car will get wrecked for sure, just a matter of time
This videos is from 10 years ago that. If he was driving it. I bet that car is totaled
Made me cringe like hell when he shot up that right lane by that traffic 😖
Smile on my face for the whole video. Absolutely amazing
Beautiful! Just listening to that motor is music to my ears. I wish I had a Camaro just like this one. Take care of her.
Very nice car! I live a couple miles from where that car was modified. Wish I was born in 1950 so I could have bought one of those. I was born too late and could never afford one now. You got a sweet car there brother
Hey I’m actually going to say something nice, beautiful car buddy...
Damn yeah she does got a lot of power. Don't worry about the negativity they've never done it or have it
Dang......looks brand new, great choice man
Steel beasts of the past that can never be beat for Looks and Feel. Newer stuff might be faster but in these old Monsters you felt every one of them Horses.
Love that power...
U live in Katy, off(99)
Not to far from me ,
Love to see that car in person...
(I live between Morton and Clay)
Can see the beauty of the car rebuild at the key start 🤘🏼
Well with 450 HP and skinny F-70, 15s any car would Spin the Tires in 4th gear but you arn't going to keep doing that to many more times before you are going to rip the Trans out of it or your Valve floating is going to Grenade the Engine IMO. learn how to Drive and Shift a High horse power Car.
I had a similar thought about the skinny tires being easy to spin. A lot of those old muscle cars sound great but at the end of the day when it comes to actual performance, the newer cars will run circles around them.
@@markkauffman6184 It's called evolution. Back then a computer took up a whole floor but your current phone has more computing power. These cars have style, no USB ports.
The rock crushers are indestructible and a little valve float won't hurt it!
Yes, we have automobiles in my town too. We often use them to run errands, or get to work.
Small world.
Strange choice of cars to learn how to drive stick on LOL
Thanks for posting your video..im sure your proud of her and i can see why!😊 keep doing what your doing !😊
I hate when people comment on how he cant shift, majority of them probably have never driven a manual....OR 450 horsepower (or so) car with a four speed, it isnt the easiest thing to do
Nicholas Elias I came up in the 70s so I had my share of sporty vehicles with manual transmissions (4 speed was common) and very beefy motors. Shifting isn't that hard. It's more of a technique. If you listen to him drive he's not smooth in the transition of gears. Sounds like he may be pushing the clutch in too far. There's no need to to push the clutch to the floor...You just need it far enough to make the shift. When you do it like that there is less time for the pressure plate to reingauge the flywheel making the gear change quicker and smoother. Plus you need to "Jam" the shifter instead of babying it. What I commented about the shifting was only advice. It wasn't meant to be taken as criticism.
Nicholas Elias I agree.
***** sounds like youre one hell of a gear jammer........
like what i did there? LMAO
Nicholas Elias - Agreed. You want to make sure the front tires are straight when you punched it in between each shift of the gears or you will be all over the place!!!
+John Parker agree
Sounds better than a Mustang in my opinion. Cool car cool vid. Practice makes perfect when it comes to driving those stoplight drag beasts. Most people are used to rice and paddle shifting nowadays so good for you for even knowing how to drive with a true manual transmission. ✌️☺️
Hammering down missing gears smoking the clutch 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂 glad that's not my car
I can hop in any manual and just drive it, I want to drive that. What a beast…. So much character. Nice car buddy
It sounds good, 1st gen camaro always be one of my favorite cars. Don’t think this one is super fast, just decent exhaust, moderate cam? But sounds good man. Enjoy it for what it is and be safe.
All rear gears
just cant get enuff of that exhaust note. i want a muscle that sounds like that soooooooooooooooooooooooo badly. makes my ears feel happy
The most frustrating part of any test drive video are the number of self-proclaimed experts in the comments talking about how the driver of the car isn't driving it right. Especially when the driver isn't really doing anything wrong.
Those yank off cars weren't nothing all that special, had ugly badges, stripes nothing faster than we already had. Lived it!
this guy's got to be kidding he's got to be a young kid just got his driver's license got a piece of classic history Automotive and you missed 3rd gear better put this kid back in a Volkswagen with an automatic you don't deserve to be in this car
That camaro is a beast!!! Hell yeah love it😮
*tons of noise
meanwhile : nothing happening
Tires dont hook up
I bought a ticket on a raffle to win a Yenko Camaro. The draw was on my birthday....how could I miss? So thank-you for the video....looks like this is the closest I'll get!
I love driving past all the economy cars in a loud-as-hell muscle car! soccer moms cover your ears!
You shift that car like you never drove anything with a stick before.. a true straight up Non car guy who just became one
Hopefully in the 10 years since you’ve posted this video you’ve finally learned how to drive the damn thing.
I love so close to where he was and to see the change in that area is INSANE buildings are just everywhere and apartments
Either that clutch is stiff as hell or he needs to hit the gym
It's his tight girl pants
Thx for a ride of a life time which I could never afford. You lucky dawg.
Any updates on the car? Keep up the work on improving shifting and you'll be one with the car one day. Might already be after a decade
When you have a car like this, your neighbors really love you, especially when you come home at 3:30 a.m.
Is this somewhere in Houston? I feel like I've seen the places you're driving around and your car before.
Its feel like Houston
Yeah I’m thinking that too
Its in cinco ranch, I drove those roads every day going to auto tech in old katy
That's because anyone in Houston with any horsepower drives like this.
Sounds good just take your time and pay attention to you surroundings. You don't have nothing to prove. It's a classic muscle car and name speaks for it self. That's coming from a 69 SS Camaro owner . Enjoy your car and stay safe. ✔
Should've got an automatic!!! You gotta bang those gears man!
Please tell me you’re joking.
This is the reason I prefer NA over Turbo. Less power(Who needs more than that? You ain't racing nobody), better sound, no lag, simplicity, less weight, less heat and it's less prone to grenade.
Seriously what's with all this hate half you kids on here have probly never drove in your life
Acnologia I agree
I liked what the person said I could make a Ham Sandwich through those gear shifts or whatever. If I would have been driving it would've turned into a Sloppy Joe Quick!! HAHA!!
@NedPeppers This is literally the first week I had the car togehter so yea the linkage was not quite dialed in and even caused me to miss a gear, First time messing with a Munice and the linkage adjustments...I'm getting better! but the hesitation was mostly me, It was first time jumping on it and I was still a little scared of trying to bang through the gears until I figured out how the car would handle ..etc.
Don’t listen to the haters. You have this car, they don’t. Idiots piss me off so much, a Chevy fan should still enjoys these vids
@@jasonshawver7227 : I am not a Chevy lover by any means so this has nothing to do with being jealous of someone who supposedly has a 69 Yenko Camaro but blaming the shift linkage saying it’s not dialed in has nothing to do with the FACT that he can’t drive a stick...at all. Him buying a different transmission is not going to solve his utter lack of coordination between gas pedal, clutch pedal and moving a shifter. There was not a single smooth shift during that entire ride, he drives like Herman Munster with those big ol’ clodhoper boots. If you can afford to live in that neighborhood then park the Camaro and buy some beater car with a manual transmission and learn how to shift, get help from someone who can drive one and stop torturing that car or just simply put an automatic transmission in it. That was painful to experience.
You need more traction!
@@frankjohnson6342 Lmfao the Herman Munster was the best thing I've ever heard 🤣 😂 💀
@@frankjohnson6342. Your jealously of this kid and his car is painful to read😂
I don't know about you guys but I still enjoyed the car showcase
I hope by 2020 you learned how to shift gears and haven't totaled it.
Ugh it's painful to watch when someone does a rip and pushes in the clutch as they slow down .....ain't got shit for control at that point.
Besides , 80-90% of engine wear happens at a cold start , so just leave the clutch out omg it's so cringy.
Oh my god you are very lucky to have this BEAST, it's my dream car god i want a YENKO Camaro. Just need a few pointers when you shift your car FAST i would be more then glad to show you some helpful hints on your shifting game. Hit me up buddy. And BEAUTIFUL YENKO, I'm super jealous
When you have that much power......you have nothing to prove........
Oh wow, smoking tires, that's really something there !
I cringe so bad when someone makes a rip and pushes in the clutch 🤢
I owned a Road Runner with a 440+6, 4.10 gears & 4-speed in '71. It was a '70 model, hardtop, In Violet color. It had the hemi drivetrain. Not sure of the clutch but it was 1 of the stiffest I had ever had the pleasure of operating. My girl, at the time, couldn't drive it, lol! I told her to put 1 foot on the gas & the other 2 on the clutch. No sense of humor!
Look to everyone that is negative on this video... My apologizes that it did not meet your video watching criteria...I believe it says in Desc - First Ride... The linkages for the shifter were not adjusted and dialed in and The first time I drove this car for more than around the block to make sure brakes worked... I'm not a great driver... where in the description did I claim to be a race car driver? Please build a Car that compares and post a video so all the Jealous haters can attack you! The Car is a beast! Unfortunately I have sold the car and moved on to another project.
It's OK Dude, but just don't let it cost like you do, No!! That's just not right, OK? Other than that, careful where you point it and be sure not to ram into someones rear end. You gotta make sure you have lots of time to break. You took a couple chances there and if a car pulls out you're done. you're not gonna be able to stop. Rule of thumb, in the city, stick to burn outs if anything. Go out of the city where there's way less traffic and let 'er loose there. Awesome ride you have, don't F%*& it up.
I can see why you sold it. 1st of all you cant drive a stick and 2nd you are clearly afraid of it....
Yeah it takes a moment, just might want to take her out in the country to stomp, away from other cars.
I was laughing right along with you! American muscle baby!!!
Legendary car for investment purposes and cruise night
But the reality is from a 30 mph pull a 2019 Camaro SS 10 speed automatic would clean his clock
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nobody fucking cares. Classics will always be better
And....I’ll probably see five 2019 Camaro SSs going to the store tonight. Nothing special at all...
@@andrewhoward8341 no you won't there slow sellers🤣🤣 but I get your point! I saw two of these back in January at the macum auto show/auction in Florida and they're definitely big money cars!
Only because of the 10 speed 😆 engine is sh*t
He is learning .... lot a waywoos for him ! Give the brotha a chance !!
2:38 - You should have practiced shifting before you posted the video. You missed 3rd gear!! Even your normal shifts at regular speeds sucked. But, I'm sure you finally got it down, hopefully before you wrecked it!!
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸American Muscle. That car and driver are awesome
Painful to watch! Learn to drive a 4 speed. Someone could teach ya! Beautiful car!
I own a 600 HP Plus built up 67 Shelby and with that much power this guy drives fine, shifts are OK he is not pushing all the way, you need to realize how much tork He has, I suggest getting an overdrive, easy to install and will change the car from stop light terror into a all around package, highway driving with OD will be incredible, I love mine
I want one
Thats old school power and torque
Who taught you how to shift, your Gramma?
She sounds like a camaro all right. Beautiful car my man.
Uh, not hard to break loose with, what, 450+ lbs of torque and 4.11 gears. Daddy bought you a nice car. Don't break it!
And 7 inch wide polyglas tires!
you gotta remember, its 1969, the tires are skinny 7 inch polyglass, and theres no traction control, you gotta know how to launch these cars
Dont be mad your daddy was broke
Fun sick car man. Lots of people complaining about how you shift… but it’s your car not theirs haha so who cares. I’m not perfect myself but enjoy my car. Thing is sickkk
