You just gave everyone a great idea for a new toy. C4's were basically worthless until now. There are so many applications for this. Autocross, rally, hill climbs, drag, shenanigans. The list goes on and on.

***** for me I don't like the corvette after 67 even here in southern Ontario where cars rot from the road salt in the winter the dam things are everywhere most people because it was a corvette did not drive them in the winter and even the ones that did still are in decent shape as long as it was undercoated

Joni Hags They get lots of hate on the internet, but in reality they're still valued in the Corvette community. I have a '90 and I'm always getting compliments even in the rough shape that it's in.

Joni Hags The 1975 had 165HP, the worst Corvette ever. A truly unfortunate story the Vette in the mid 1970's. I do like the looks of the mid to late 1970's Vettes, but they're embarrassingly slow, and they had terrible build quality as well. To be fair though, every car at the time was choked by reg's, most were terrible and the best were only decent. The U.S. market took a long time to recover, and the foreign cars sneaked in, namely the Japanese. They haven't left. I don't think they will. It's okay though, they are keeping the U.S. market driving and developing. Our biggest weakness in this industry has always been complacency.

Looks like a Corvette and an Ariel Atom got married in Vegas and had, well, not quite a lovechild, which was subject to severe abuse during it's formative years, and then grew up to be projecting all it's anger and frustration into the world. Love it.

For very little money,you have a ariel Atom beater,while not a nice,it would be hard to beat, with a little TLC,brakes could easily be setup to work really well,they took out a 1000 lbs and did nothing to the brake bias.Even so,some body work on the Corvette frame,powder coating,proper Nascar poly windshield,sidebar for ease of entry and hey it might look pretty cool.plus all the engine room,hang a couple of hairdryers and watch out.

Start at the first comment, I'm watching RK and the ad wants me to lease a Hyundai, I found that humorous. Then Assassinpiggles mentioned the 2.4 turbo engine they offer(which is actually a really good damn engine), which propmpted me to mention that the Optima (same car as hyundai sonata) is a much better looking car at a lower price. Just because I love v8's and other American stuff doesn't mean I should be ignorant about other cars and other brands. Anything with an engine floats my boat just fine.

Where are all the hateful comments about selling out? Where all the people saying they are going to unsub? They are noticeably absent in this episode, compared to the Subaru episode. No one notices or if they do notice, do not care when they get sponsorship from Lingenfelter, Holley, Mast Motorsports, Dickies, or Continental. But if Subaru does it, it is them selling out, a Subaru 'commercial' and people 'unsub'(even though they are full of shit and actually don't). What gives? Money is money, and they use that money, regardless of where it comes from, towards the same purpose, fixing their junk to make it more fun and make an entertaining episode. My thing is, if you wanna cry 'SELLOUTS!!1!' about the Subie episode, you have to be consistent, and have to do it here as well, but, you won't. Why? For the record, I think none of this sellout crap. I friggin' Love this show, just kinda peeved about all the dick comments in the subie episode from people who don't get it.

I don't understand the hate. I enjoyed the Subaru episode and have great respect for a big car company that would place their product on a show as REAL as Roadkill. I understand that some screening and editing would have to happen but I think Roadkill did more good for Subaru's reputation than Subaru did damage to Roadkill's Reputation. To me there was no damage, and that episode just went to prove that David and Michael can be professional when they need to be and still be bad asses. How cool is that?

Nabder Nagor What do you mean? Example? - POD filters must be in an enclosed box. - BOV venting to atmosphere is illegal. - Car must not be lower than 10cm from the ground to the exhaust. - Wheels may not be 2" bigger than standard. - Exhaust can't be louder than 74dB - Gauges aren't allowed on the dash or anywhere above the steering wheel, so yes, gauges on the pillar are illegal. - If the car is supposed to come with an airbag in the steering wheel, it is illegal to replace the steering wheel with an aftermarket one. - Not allowed tinted lights. - Legal window tint is 35%. - Car cannot have more than 20% more power than stock. - There are engine capacity regulations. e.g all vehicles originally weighing more than 1100 kg = Original mass (kg) x 5.0 = maximum legally capacity in cc’s for naturally aspirated. Forced induction, it's x 3. Say you're supercharging a 2010 Camaro SS. You'd legally have to remove the 6.2L, and install a 5.1L.

This is basically the coolest thing ever, but if they really wanted to do this right they would have needed to install a coil-over kit. There's nothing wrong with the stock leafs, but the spring rate is way off. The suspension might as well be solid mounted... There was some kid who made a V8 Civic with C5 rear suspension, and it handled like crap because the spring rate was way off.

Yeah it would be sick if they did that! And send it to a sheet metal shop to give it some finish and some aero would be even better! I've always wanted to do exactly what they did to this. Either to a Fiero of Vette since they have similar space-frame construction. But I'm not sure I could justify it unless other people thought it was really cool too.

Its what made c4s so great in the 80s and 90s. Corvette at the time of the c4 needed to have separate class in racing because of how well they performed. Plus 305-400 cubic inch range engines are good for track use, still a "small" engine that makes explosive power and not much to make it.

IT WAS A MINI ROCKET. but this is the first time ive ever seen it done to a car like the corvette. a car where a LOT of people would immediately go "NO! HOW DARE YOU! NOT THAT CAR!" But seriously? The principle of stripping all the unnecessary stuff out of a car to the bare bones and using pure performance stuff on it is just GENIUS!!!
