Day 1 is in the books! Come out and say hi!! 👋

[@mindmusclemeditation9768]

Hi Justin, thanks for the great content. What is the name of the instagram account for the red Eray? also what exhaust is he running? Thank you

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Superchargederay is his instagram and he had a custom exhaust from fab speed!

[@chriscrowell6678]

A " REAL " YELLOW ! yes I agree 💯 Justin ! Happy to see Seebring Orange return as well !

[@lewislgZ06]

Having a great time at the Bash! Meeting Justin & Amber and people from the HPO Monday night live show is so much fun!

[@ProtectiveDadPranks]

It’s definitely BLURPLE!

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

💯

[@polystictus]

And it SUCKS!

[@jroe25yt8]

Love it! Keeps the LT6 unique in the lineup as well.

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

My thoughts exactly!

[@11secondeclipse]

The old yellow was the perfect supercar yellow. I’m kinda glad they aren’t doing green since my Z06 is already being built because bright green like that was my first choice. I’m definitely getting that Carbon Fiber diffuser eventually but now I’m broke for a little bit lol.

[@PatsGarageOnline]

2:40 You found your perfect hype man!

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Dude! He makes me feel like a rockstar lol

[@PatsGarageOnline]

@@HorsePowerObsessed I could see you smiling off camera the entire time. And the truth is, he's right!

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

I appreciate that, man!!

[@aarpm77]

Bro I was just going to the comments to post the exact same thing! 😂

[@tlschmidt71]

6:53 that eray has diff't wheels on each side. i was the first to do that with a Jeep back in '97.

[@Hangin_With_Shane]

Justin, Such a great day at the Bash! It's funny before you recorded me discussing the new colors, I was just saying how Hysteria Purple 🟣 should have been called SAFE PURPLE 😂 Blue in certain lights and in the shade, purple sometimes 😂 GM... Give us Midnight Purple 💜 Metallic and an Exotic Green 💚... Please and thanks! 330 👍 Currently -Shane

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

I know. I wish I would have caught that on camera because it is the BEST description of this color. They should really have called it "Safe Purple"

[@dannyengland126]

Great day appreciate program

[@lesevesel2898]

Pictures and videos DO NOT do the C8 any real justice. You have to see this thing in real life. I live very close to the newly opened Durango Station Resort Casino here in Las Vegas and there was a Rapid Blue C8 with the Z51 Package. I gotta tell ya: that babe stood out.

[@dbmracing2019]

Such a great day! Amazing video! Thanks Justin! Come out and say hello guys!

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Heck yeah, man!! Can’t wait to see what is in store for today!

[@Nubian_King]

I haven't seen Justin this giggly in a while 😂😂 gotta love it 🤟🏿🤟🏿

[@greatwhitenorthcorvette8133]

Great video! Thanks for the updates. I pick the new Yellow!

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Good choice!

[@mxtv1258]

Does anyone know the name of rear window water blockers towards the beginning of the video? I could barely understand what he was saying but the blockers looked good and there was a discount.

[@deweyford7869]

Obviously everything is illegal here in California but we're the sport cats with the stock exhaust or aftermarket exhaust

[@Glasscitycarnerd]

Cool stuff!! Sad I couldn’t make it, but at least I got your videos!

[@Z06_Bandido]

Man I can’t wait for Carlisle! Get to see the whole bunch of “the Corvette Goodfellas” great video dude!

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Thanks man!! I’m pumped to meet you and see your car too!!

[@jlhalls]

Hey Justin, thanks for sharing the Bash with us! LOVE IT!! And tell Amber I totally agree with her take on the new purple!

[@TrackSpeed815]

Justine, day one of the Bash was truly a lot of fun! Joe Lamb AKA "Super 8" 😀

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Thanks, Joe! It was awesome seeing you again!!

[@PatsGarageOnline]

Quite interesting that the ZR1 won't be a turbo flat plane V8. McLaren has pulled it off, successfully. But, Mc's aren't that reliable. I'll stay tuned...

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Lol true! They are also lower displacement.

[@PatsGarageOnline]

@@HorsePowerObsessed I can see a higher displacement working with a lower boost. But that means small gains and that defeats the purpose of a turbo.

[@CGlhut3]

@@HorsePowerObsessed Plenty of people running turbo’s on the gt350’s. Fathouse has 1600+whp gt350’s running around. So you can definitely reliably turbo flat plane cranks, but I agree it doesn’t make sense for chevy to have to warranty them at scale.

[@marksurge4]

I have been waiting for you to post this video! That Competition Yellow is the exact yellow I have been wanting for the previous 5 years! The GM engineer information was super cool to hear about as well! Did you also get to see the new Z51 spoiler for the Stingray?

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

I didn't see that yet!

[@marksurge4]

@@HorsePowerObsessed The spoiler I believe was on the red stingray next to the Hysteria Purple display model. It’s a slightly larger wing I’m assuming for the Z51. 4 spoke

[@danielgriffy2170]

How are you keeping the eventuri clear plastic clean?

[@kelbej1]

Great job! Can you send me the information on where you got the window glass, rubber and chrome trim?

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

I'm not 100% sure what you are asking for, send me where in the video you see it.

[@KRGruner]

Awesome video.

[@matthewklug7679]

Great video Justin. Love the insider information.

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Thank you!!

[@stevedolan5065]

I’ve always liked Miatas…they just keep making them better!

[@Z06_Bandido]

Awesome video!

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Thank you so much!!

[@stephenr115]

Purple sort of looks like Kona Blue of the Mustangs. I’m color blind (mild) and don’t know if camera matching but it is “akin” to Kona. What do you think J? I would like to see a dark free as in a highland green of the Bullitt.

[@paullomonaco5260]

Thanks as always Justin. Man to Man Brother to Brother Thanks For all u Do

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

My pleasure!!

[@gageinslee4551]

Justin any thoughts to what color hysteria might be replacing?

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Shane and I were talking about that and speculate it MIGHT be replacing ceramic matrix gray.

[@gsmith207]

great upload. and cant wait for you guys to PPF my ZR1 in Aug! dont even wanna drive it after that dudes story, scared the bleep outa me!

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Right?! XPEL literally gives you peace of mind taking your baby out of the garage.

[@robertjakicic5878]

Hello Justin ZO6 is looking fabulous at the NCM ,thank god your friends rapid blue had protection I can just imagine what was going through his mind when that retread hit his car.

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Thank you! XPEL definitely saves car paint!!

[@GenXVette]

same colors can be found in a bag of Skittles

[@williamtaylor4540]

Any idea if the Hysteria (purple) will be offered as a standard color or will it be a premium for extra $$$?

[@lukegader5211]

Most likely will be $995

[@Rhutrow]

Bowling Green Cars and Coffee is 8am-11am at the Corvette Track in the morning. You should bring the gang, would love to see your car in person!

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

on Saturday?

[@Rhutrow]

@@HorsePowerObsessedyes, Saturday morning

[@Rhutrow]

When you pull into the Corvette track, stay right and follow to the back of the parking lot.

[@tomt6907]

Let’s see that habanero and blue stitch interiors

[@SapphireSweed]

Purple before a real green?

[@amber_lynn08]

Justin, you’re a good person with honest truth!! So much garbage channels out there with no personality that copies your content because those people have no ideas of their own!! “Only thing that meets him where he’s at is a 20oz porterhouse…. I’m out” I love him!! Lol

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Thanks, dear! I appreciate it!!

[@lewislgZ06]

I agree! 👍

[@jimmycline4778]

I wish they would bring back the looks of a Corvette, I’m never selling my mint 01 C5 and mint 2010 C6 ZO6,,,I just hate the looks of the C8 and will never like them even know they are faster! ✌️

[@carsandrealestate7012]

Has anyone heard of the 2024 ZO6 blowing the tranny or engine yet? I think either the engine or tranny blew today. Only 170 miles on it. No racing just driving on the freeway and it happened. I was still trying to break in the engine. 🤔

[@c8rallydriver]

Or just use a GM officially licensed product and clean everything 😂🎉 Engine bay is dirty bruh

[@Cars-N-Jets]

I like the intro!

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Right?!

[@user-xp8qz1cc8z]

LOL. 10% veteran's discount but $19.00 shipping to Florida? #YeahRight

[@ModernGolfer]

Apparently, the folks at GM don't know what color "purple" actually is. Duh.

[@readyon3506]

But McLaren and Ferrari put Turbos on their FPC engines and it works, why dies GM find it unreliable ?

[@magistrate7009]

May have something to do with the engine being too big in displacement? mclaren and ferrari engine sizes range from 3.8-4L in size where as the Z06 is 5.5L. Regardless, I wouldn't want it any other the, my Z06 is probably the best car I will drive in this life time.

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

💯

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

Displacement is much higher on the z06 engine.

[@breadn5556]

Anyone else not a fan of the big rear spoilers

[@InvestBetter.]

Hysteria definitely is more blue than purple It's a dark blue that wants to be Purple, but just doesn't have the guts

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

💯 Shane described it as “a safe purple”

[@v8behind]

I agree with amber, that purple is disappointing

[@dlang1009]

Not a shade of purple I expected. We need some bold colors. Look at Lamborghini, Ferrari colors. Come on GM

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

100% agree. I was hoping for more of an exotic purple.

[@readyon3506]

First as always

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

I freaking love it!!

[@knucle01]

It's BLUrple......

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

It sure is!!

[@KoreyParagonPerformance]

That intro guy looks shaddy. I don't know if you can trust him.

[@HorsePowerObsessed]

lol he has his moments!

[@g4do]

I love performance talks when it comes to gm vehicles. But it's insulting to hear them talk about cosmetic changes that they then charge even more for, even the vehicle is not faster or better performing. For instance, the RST(rally sport truck) has nothing to do with performance, it's a cosmetic upgrade that gm charged more money for . Insane. For that alone , I don't like general much anymore. I'm interested in performance. I don't care it they sell me a bare metal Chevy Tahoe, just so long as the base engine is putting out 500 hp NA .

[@jonwheelis2037]

I just asked ChatGPT : best guess as to the LT7 being a FPC or CPC & here is its response: Based on current trends in automotive engineering and considering the potential performance goals of the LT7 engine, it's reasonable to speculate that it could be a CPC engine rather than an FPC (Flat-Plane Crankshaft) engine. CPC engines, with their traditional overhead valve design and pushrod architecture, are often favored in applications where high torque and low-end grunt are priorities, which are characteristics often desired in high-performance American V8 engines like those found in the Corvette lineup. Additionally, the CPC design typically results in a more compact engine package, which can be advantageous for packaging within the Corvette's tight engine bay. While FPC engines are known for their high-revving capabilities and potential for higher peak power output, they often sacrifice low-end torque, which might not align with the performance goals of a high-performance Corvette model like the ZR1. However, this is still speculative, and the actual configuration of the LT7 engine will depend on various factors including GM's design goals, engineering decisions, and performance targets for the ZR1. Only official announcements from General Motors can confirm the engine's configuration definitively.

[@pryerpalm10103]

Why would I want to look thru a plexiglass when I can just look at it,,,,, waste of money

[@Cars-N-Jets]

To prevent objects from getting into your engine from your truck. It's included with the Eventuri intake it's not a waste of money.

[@pryerpalm10103]

Sorry that green was horrible

[@Cars-N-Jets]

Looks different in person. It also glows in the dark
