Give ‘er a watch! In this episode we go to the dyno, the autocross, and the worst road in Toronto to find out which is the superior sporting machine. Who’s your money on?

Good work fellas.

Man, there was almost NOTHING in that Mountain Dew Challenge! :P May I suggest Dr. Pepper next time?
The part with Reid trying to break the Cletusvette....I was laughing so hard....that thing is invincible! Well, until the starter got stuck on, anyway...

Dr Pepper is super tasty and actually Alex’s favorite soda. Glad you enjoyed watching!

Awesome work as always, guys!
A bit surprised at the ‘Vette dyno though. Maybe do an episode where you do a super-tune on the carb and ignition. And maybe check the lifter preload.

Thought it would dyno higher? I was really impressed by it actually. Far surpassed my expectations. Thanks for watching!

Yeah. Maybe not a ton, but I figured a bit more than that. I think you’ve got some more in it!

Maybe. 249 seems to indicate about 300 at the crank which seems about right. it doesn’t run perfect so there’s likely some wiggle room there.

Yeah, I figured it’s a 70 L46 (right?) so knocking off 15% for gross->net and then 15% for drivetrain losses (Muncie?) that drops you close to the ~250. I just figured you’d pick up more from the side pipes to be honest.
It’s still a great pull, no doubt! You guys are doing some really cool stuff.

The wrenching challenge was great! Gotta be careful not to get too evil with that haha

Alex, I’m sorry to say your career as an evil booby-trapping mastermind isn’t off to a good start.

Great job! And may I point out that some genius predicted 245hp for the Corvette?

Pretty darn good guess! Mine was 224 I think.

I watched it at lunch while eating leftover pizza. That combo made it one damn fine lunch. Great work as always!

Watched it last night - nice work again!
For any future “let’s spill soda on the car” challenge, you may want to put it in a glass though - I think the bottle held in most of the spillage
