    LNF, basic 93 tune and downpipe can put them at 300 crank really easily. I bought a 2010 Cobalt SS/TC basically new back in 2011 from an old lady with 6,000 miles on it. Tossed on GMS1 for shits and giggles and made 300 crank. Ended up going with an S259et and supporting a couple years later and made 650whp with room to spare. Those engines are totally overlooked. Much like the LSJ when you go big turbo.

    Technically, that's a Sky, not a Solstice, but whatevs. They can be very fast with surprisingly few modifications. My Solstice GXP was faster than my LS3 C6 - up until the first shift. Unfortunately, the first shift in the Solstice is at about 25mph, after which all bets are off. Great fun on a track, though.

    I'm looking at GX460/470 right now, and I'm probably going to stick with Toyota since I'm not a big fan of the barn door. Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure the the Sequoia is more like the larger LX, while the GX is a luxury 4Runner, which puts the Land Cruiser in a odd location in the lineup. Sequoia seems more comparable to the LX in my eyes, but that demands way more of a premium. Solid pickup for a tow pig; the only thing you really need to "modernize" the interior is a headunit that supports Apple Carplay.

      @@dadhats From watching your video, I think the advantages of the Touareg is the diesel engine for towing. I average 17-19MPG while towing my camaro in an open trailer at 70-75mph. Without the trailer I get 31 highway and 27 in the city average. The downside to the touareg compared to your car is that it does tend to sag a little in the rear with the trailer and the seats don't fold down flat(almost but not really). You have much more room in the inside and more comfort creatures. Touareg is more sporty and economical. Your car is more comfortable and bigger. My touareg doesnt have air suspension. But I got mine with 118k miles for $12k. It's been a great tow vehicle for almost 3 years now. I'm about to cross 160k miles.

    Towing to the track is sweet. One step closer to making the BRZ full race car 😂

    The Mustang was actually going to let him pass you can see that Mustang driver is actually trying to learn while the Corvette driver is just kind of being a dick that has nothing to do with the cars either that's the people

    Hey just wondering I just got the same atx20 battery for my 86 I also track it but boosted it so I have some gauges and on bags (yes I’m on bags and track and yes they feel fine to anyone who wants to say otherwise) but did you upgrade your alternator ? Seems like I have a power cut when I give it some gas at low rpm’s (also going coils a friend wants the bags of that really is the issue)

      that's weird I've never experienced that, I haven't had to touch the alternator yet. I also used to track my car on bags btw lol

    Love these vids. What mode do you use when tracking. Can’t find a good answer. Just VSC Sport? Press and Hold VSC?

    What do you have done to your engine? Any oiling upgrades? I just spent 3k on an engine and it arrived with rod knock...

      I was heart broken, waited 2 years and was told the engine was good and obviously it wasn't... Been thinking of just swapping it, but that's a few more years of saving money while I pay for a vehicle I can't drive. ​@@dadhats

    Apex later on turn 5, hitting it too early makes you track out earlier than you should, aim to track out fully by the second rumble strips after turn 5
