Announcer: W-W-W-ATCH THE STARTERRRRR!!!!
****takes a deuce squat****
Omfg I'm dead 😂😂
You either hate the announcer or love him there’s no in between 😂
He's pure trash.
He's a bit much for me
Sick of that corvette in every spec drag
and in few years hes in nascar and wonder where the hell did he come from :D
It's not even a car, it's a go kart!
@@hernes0071 Not after Bubba Smollett.
He's killing Nascar.
Besides...HALF the drivers there could drive if they had that car.
For real. If I was in charge I would never let someone race something like that. Next thing you know they'll be putting a Tesla up against a '99 Ranger.
*She was driving the shit out of that cutlass tho...* 😂🤣
She fuckin was man got sideways and all
Dream girl right there
I'd like to see under the hood of that '78 Caprice wagon. Lots of work done to that sleeper.
Most likely a big block 454 ,,, because it halls ass
I really don't think it's fair to the others to allow that chopped down corvette to be in the same class, no doubt it has a more powerful engine but beyond that, it's much lighter.
Do they even have classes?
Run what ya brung.
@@speedfiend74 often when I've seen these there's classes in the sense that they match up cars as best they can for the first few rounds but ultimately it's whatever comes in
@@chrisbowler7573 Oh, ok...I race a lot of different sanctioning bodies mainly Road Race stuff. I would love to attend and participate in something like this. Thanks for the reply.
@@speedfiend74 it's pretty fun to watch...always the chance someone will wreck their mom's car. It's usually just the intermission to a regular race night so still get to see some proper racing as well
Got to love that one handed steering wheel control, hand held at 12 o'clock in that Lincoln. That is driving in America today.
Come on a Corvette without weight??talk about unfair
No Aerodynamics, either. Cleetus took Le Roy to the wind Tunnel, and Le Roy rang up (I think) 65 Coefficient of drag. They also had a Vette from the same year with the body that scored (I think) 36 Co Efficient of Drag. Cleetus has a video about it maybe, a year or so ago.....
And a turbo
@@alexyoungberg5232 for real
@@jonsmith1259 aerodynamics doesn't have much of a factor at those speeds and its not like any of those other vehicles were super aerodynamic
Wow, that's a lot of bugs flying by those lamps :)
For a second there I thought that was Cleetus Leeroy Corvette.
Look at this wannabe Leroy the Savage guy
Ben W definitely not the other way around, and this guy is just cheesing regular ass cars, not even having fun with them
Oh hey its Josh, wait, what what?
Leroy is nothing but a copy of the VetteCart built by Roadkill in 2010!
@@richtheory. except it's a c5, way faster, and actually gets used
Hell Yeah! Unbelievable! Literally Pulled that Station Wagon out of the Crusher 8 years ago! Still gots the power.
So much fun to watch this
another great show! that wagon though! i have a 78 chevy caprice wagon i freaking love it.
Man I've had 3 caprices, always loved em.. my first car was a 78 2d aerocoupe..never had a wagon but I did have a 77 Cadillac ambulance.. wish I could find something like it again lol
@@aztekwarrior518 damn I haven't seen an ambulance it sounds badass! 👍
@@irvingcobian kind of looked like the ghost busters car lol
It was awesome man!!
Wagon was WAY cooler than that crapvette.
That was really fun. I love in Mississippi am looking for something like this around here.
Thanks for posting these videos I subscribed , I watch every one you posted very fun to watch
Anyone else annoyed by the "yelling salesman from the '90s" announcer?
P.S. I like the second guy though. He should take over...
every time he says "waaaaaaaaaatch the staaaartguuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuur" a little baby angel falls from heaven....
bigjohnjr04 😂😂😂
Yeah this place really misses Eric Huenefeld bad...
You really want the guy who shouted "IT'S GOT LEATHER SEATS" as the main announcer...? D:
Yes.
The Corvettes full-blown race ready. Don't think it's very fair and they should eliminate that car from the competition.
The dude in the Magnum wrecked all the way down the backstretch and finally got in done right before turn 3. Excellent driving.
Good racing but the announcer 🤦🏻♂️
only bad part is the stupid “waaaaaaaaaatch the starter”
I mean if you guys think you can do better, I like to see that.
That announcer called it, at least 20k views on RUclips!
Cleetus sure is making vette carts popular. Ive seen a lot of em lately. Of course none are as cool as Leroy tho
You're forgetting the Roadkill guys had the first one!!!
None have 1500+ hp like Leroy lol
Copying is the sincerest form of flattery. It’s good to see roadkill and Leroy doing so much for the sport
Vette carts were around before Roadkill, Cleetus and youtube lol. People used to do things on Earth without uploading it to instasnapbooktube.
@@judgegixxer truth
Six hour exterior detail, tire shine, wax wheels, polish glass.....
....Brings car here!
That Lincoln and the Magnum better be rivals forever.
Love the wagon. Always wanted to soup up one of those and embarrass people.
black98rt most wagons are geared to pull loads don't need to much but wide tires, I have a 1974 ford wagon and have been over 128 miles an hour in a hart beat it has a 429 big block
Well that body style the best engine you get factory was a 350 with 160-170hp. Whatever is in that car is not factory.
I already do that in my 94 Buick roadmaster wagon it is hilarious watching the looks on peoples faces especially Mustang drivers when I take them to gapplebees in rusty ugly station wagon 🤣
Just sold my magnum. Built hemi. I enjoyed watching people's jaw drop when it took off
I always wanted a Magnum SRT but it never happened. Did have an 04 WRX wagon with a bigger turbo and supporting mods though. Thing was vicious from a stop when I didn’t fry the clutch.
New sub here, great uploads.
That vette should not be allowed to run.
That friggin' Cutlass! Ain't laughed this hard in a while. Great announcer.
*"There's about 20 thousand hits on youtube!"*
*2 months later* ⑥②,⑥⑧⑧ ⓥⓘⓔⓦⓢ
Its a Leroy Junior!
Who else just clicks forward through all his stupidity before each flag?
Omg the first race
Damn that’s a fast wagon. I wanted to see the two wagons run. That tubed job with a turbo shouldn’t have been allowed to race.
How often do these drags take place? Any website for thr schedule?
Even the subtitles thought he was saying car vette. LEWL
There was about 20k hits when i watched this. Nice
Leroy's cousin for the win!
Is it a “karrvett”
Man he sure likes that hemi wagon. It’s got a hemi you know.
Hmm, after the crash I learned the Magnum's secret as it guns through dirt, damn thing is AWD !!!
No wonder it's so fast, I knew there was an AWD Charger R/T, but the Magnum....you learn everyday !
Yeah I love my awd magnum
That Corvette go kart totally goes against the spirit of spec drags. The guy driving that thing would probably bring an RC car to the Pinewood Derby.
That’s my unskilled in the season wagon
"There's 20,000 hits on RUclips!"
Magnun needs a supercharger and some weight reduction before he can catch that vette.
Nope the magnum will never be as light and that corvette is only using like 1/10th of it's power , I've seen at at drag week that thing isn't even trying power wise
I'd actually be able to watch this if the announcer wasn't how he is. I muted it but not hearing the cars ruined the video too lol. In the end, I watched 8 mins of the video before wanting to slit my wrists listening to the goofball with the mic and decided to type this comment and watch something else.
I agree, the announcer is annoying as f**k.
pablosleeping I swear a prerequisite to be an announcer at attack is to be annoying as fk. It’s really annoying sometimes
Stfu slowly turn full unmute
@@josediazasmr6014 an ASMRtist suggesting we put things at full volume... You are a fraud and liar! :P
@@josediazasmr6014 I went to your channel. You ARE a fraud and a liar xD Where's the ASMR?! ahaha
What were the door prizes? The cobolt didnt get totally dusted.
At 8:27, the right front spring is probably a 1,400 lb. Spring.
Left front is probably a 1,000 lb. and it probably has AFCO shocks all the way around that bolt in the stock location.
That wagon has a nasty stall too
GMC Suburban, nice.
Factory cobalt keeping up with a modded corvette turbo freak show.
The LNF cobalt ss held the fastest FWD lap record on the Nurburgring for a period of time so it doesnt surprise me that its keeping up with that vette on this tight track. Some suspension components and supporting mods would have that cobalt right up next to the vette.
I had an LNF with a conservative 420whp and that thing walked a lightly mod/tune LS3 C6. Was a very quick car for what it was and how much money I had into it.
I wish this was in GA 😭
I second that...
Randy Brown yea seems like something that should happen in the south
To only have like 175 to 200hp those grand ams are suprisingly peppy and handle okay for a front driver!
35k hits actually
if he's doing Billy Joel with the "pontiac ack ack ack ack" he's wrong, it's CADILLAC ACK ACK ACK ACK. Right manufacturer, wrong model car 🤗
I wanna see one of the brand new 2020 f150 stx in there, i heard its got the coyote
sounds like one of those guys is saying carvette.
That corvette is wayyyyy too powerful and wauyyyyy to light ,, to even be in this ,,,,
The magnum continues? Whatever ,different views on fair i guess. The cutless driver , thats some exceptional work wheeling that overpowered sofa for the win , that thing getting suspension? Great competition to watch. Yes the wagon was good but also has more in it then just power.
The "car vette" is basically a late model. Not fair
oooooooooooooo dip
Corvette had to many advantages lol
Turbo and weight reduction not really "stock" fir what this race was about.
....and the Wagon was stock ?
I actually kinda like the announcer
That's a chevy suburban
Funny how one person does something cool like the corvette kart, and then everyone does one right after to cop the cool points after its popular.
Hey man he's just doing it for Dale.
@@Im0utlaw And carting C4's is a great idea. It just works.
It's a 78 pontiac wagon no wait it's and 83 no it's an 03 it's a Oh I don't know shit about cars! LoL 😏
Hahaha.....it was a late 80s caprice front end on it (euro headlamps) and the back half was a Pontiac wagon I'm guessing late 70s early 80s. The announcer was confused asf lol.
holy shit
Station wagon got a 350 rocket
Damn wipeout indeed
the 2nd announcer in the tan pants seems like a real tool
Street cars ???? Oookay
Is this place in Rockford Illinois
Loves park
Subberb of Rockford.
Rockford, Illinois. Rockford Speedway
1:08 is what you came here for.
1:41 front wheels are locked up. At that point he was just a passenger .
Front wheels locked up cause the dude was hard on the brakes, left rear brake light is out as well, but if it locked up sooner, it wouldn't have broadsided the other car.
Kartvette let the wagon win.
It was his born day
Dude tryn to be Cleetus McFarland...🤣 But he was a very good sport as Cleetus is...much respect...
The bastardized vette was turbo charged as well....as the whistle of those turbines could be heard!
No, this is not fair as the vehicles are supposed to be stock street drivers racing.
You cannot drive that vette on any street that I know of...
CLEETUS STOP BRINGING LEROY TO SPEC DRAGS YOURE OBVIOSLY GONNA WIN
dont understand how that vette was allowed to compete. that thing is insanely unfair for the class
cutlass needs a proper rear diff.
She woulda stuffed it if it did tho
@@alexyoungberg5232 no faith lol
Cutlass is my dads getting new rear and trans be back out sept 14th
It's a shame what happened to the Lincoln, I bet it would have done well.
Whats up with all the pontiacs? Just saying
come on..like people are going to stack up against the motor frame
can I take a busa powered smart car to the track?... the same thing
46 k views js
I feel sorry for that Lincoln LS I know it's alot nicer than that Dodge Baby Pukemobile
Wonder where the guy with the Corvette got the idea to chop it up? Surprised he doesn't call it Leroy.
They gta start hiring people who know a little something about cars for these things if you don't know what a car is read the badges their pretty big
Dude in the Magnum hit the Lincoln on purpose
the corvette was cool until he lined up nose to nose on the winner take all race.
I'd split it if I was the carvette driver.
GMC suburban
That vet shouldn’t have lined up even on that last race.
I can't watch the Carvert slice and dice the field.
Cars: *crash*
Announcer: "There's about 20,000 hits on RUclips!"
BTW the magnum and lincoln rematch on 9/14/19 so go see that video.
Magnum drivers be like...
It's a freaking tank
what do you expect racing a grandfather car
That wagon must have a big Block 454 cu in in that ,, it halls ass,
Na it got a race engin but not she’d what xsakley my uncial is braving
Who the fuck let the guy in the stripped turbo corvette race ? OP much
Why is there so many Pontiacs?? Lol
Chrysler product couldn’t beat the Ford product so .... Pit em!
Anything can beat a p.o.s.(Ford). He lost the ass end n slid into the p.o.s.
Both of the chicks could drive
That's about twenty thousand views right there me: looks at views only 10,000 lol
Thats all i see.... maybe hes cross eyed so he sees double

Agreed.... LAME! That “Carvette” is way over powered for this event.
Then bring something faster so you can win the No Prize .
