[@v8vega383]

[@jigmetv8497]

Hell ya dude, that's amazing

[@SS454LS6]

Thanks man!

[@tonydjr.8593]

Holy!

[@Eladwahs]

Awesome video!! Congrats on the PB 🎉. 😎👍

[@SS454LS6]

Thanks. So glad you guys were out there!

[@Chevelle602]

Your chevelle looks so good out there

[@scuba8413]

Car looks mean with that tire and wheel combo. Also from your area, seen your car once in person while driving. Looks fantastic and sounds great 👍

[@SS454LS6]

Sweet. Ya never know what set of wheels/tires I'll have on haha.

[@Dag0421]

Awesome driving skills. I would love to be able to do that. My 71 SS Elcamino wouldn't handle like that. Good job

[@SS454LS6]

Thanks. I would still say try it. Just drive within the limits of the car. Brakes is the only thing you want to be sure is going to be good. Good brake fluid, and some upgraded pads.

[@Dag0421]

Not sure there are any tracks here on Vancouver Island BC where I am located. I will definitely look now, though. Thanks 😊

[@Dag0421]

I found one in Duncan. It is about an hour from me. I will go there and see what it is all about. I subscribed to their newsletter, so I will read all about it too. Thanks

[@SS454LS6]

@@Dag0421 I had to look it up. Seems like a nice track, without too high of top speeds. Shouldn't be a killer on the brakes, but I suspect it will heat up the power steering fluid and curbs will rattle anything lose. So make sure all your nuts and bolts are tight haha.

[@Dag0421]

Great advice. I won't get too crazy on my first time out 😊

[@jeremyedwards4832]

Awesome clip again. What is that road race tire combo ? Would you give out that information?

[@SS454LS6]

Aero Racing wheels, 15x8 front, 15x10 rear. Avon CR6ZZ 225/60R15 front and 295/50R15

[@tonydjr.8593]

Notice how it’s hard out of turns ?

[@tonydjr.8593]

U would go through all that trouble / headache?

[@tonydjr.8593]

Shift it at lower rpm for one

[@frankallen9111]

Where in the world can I buy one of those Traqmates?

[@SS454LS6]

They went out of business. A better, more modern version, is Vbox.

Chevele not even close to being the same !!!
