the offroad Camaro is becoming the space shuttle (DIY racing livery!)
More about the space shuttle in the links! This is our first attempt at a DIY vinyl wrap, and for the offroad Camaro the inspiration comes from a far faster vehicle -- the space shuttle! This will be the first video in a series for this project, as we're installing it one section at a time. Next week we'll be taking the offroad Camaro to another rallycross competition, so make sure to SUBSCRIBE and enable notifications to join in on the motorsport adventures!

🔊 Comment if you hear any weird sounds! Gotta be proactive in fixing them. My Camaro has had no mechanical failures (yet?!) so let's put that to the test! I've taken the offroad Camaro on the road before, and now that it's got a lot more miles it was time for another cruise up the grade to see if anything's loosened in that time. This video just uses raw audio primarily from my new-old GoPro wi...

wait y'all pay for "track inspections" instead of just throwing your car on jack stands and wiggling every moving part around to feel for play
that's totally valid to do the DIY route! booking an inspection just helps with accountability (I sometimes procrastinate on wrenching haha) and some shops do all the "wiggle everything" checks for free!
MF. A video could be done in 45 sec and took this mf so many minutes.
Made Your Camaro look like a Honda ! Good job 👍
🤣 ahaha which Honda does a 2-tone like this? I'm drawing a blank on which it'd be
what bolt pattern did u use when ordering the rims and what's the ground clearance
Same 5x120mm as stock on this car! Also had to research to find the right offset to clear the brakes. Ground clearance is around 6 or 7 inches, gotta go measure again 🤣 you planning on trying something like this?
Excellent instructional video. Clear and precise. I managed to change my air filter with no problems. Thank you!
Im building my 2010 v6 Camaro for rally racing as well 💪
Ooh that's awesome, what are your plans for upgrades?
@ So far I replaced my RS struts with SS struts, springs, front and rear stabilizer bars. I used eBay struts spacers 30mm for the 1” I lost from the SS struts and springs. I used SS 4 piston breaks front and rear. 69” nrg rear wing. Upgrade my manifold to a ported lfx with 76mm throttle body, cold air intake, straight pipe. Short shifter kit and stage 1 clutch no tune yet. Will be running water methanol to help keep engine cool
lol
🏁 some more notes -- the car was tending towards a lot of understeer with this setup. I think all that extra rear grip from disconnecting the sway bar is leading it to resist rotating/sliding on corner entry. Next time I'll be reconnecting the rear sway bar and even disconnecting the front for better oversteer. Let me know if you have any thoughts on how I can drive it better too! RWD on a rally course is challenging but a lot of fun 😁
You own it and can’t spell it?
Camaro? You mean
Thank you for explaining this like I’m a kindergartener because when it comes to cars I am in fact a kindergartener! Appreciate you!
So glad to help! That was the goal, making cars more accessible 🥳
Whats going on????😅
I'm installing a vinyl wrap on the Camaro for a new racing livery design! Fully DIY install, still a work in progress 🚀
Wow I wish
You spelled my "girlfriend was driving my car" wrong
That’s some fuckin American ass shit🤘 hell yeah dude😂
🏁😎🇺🇸
Awesome man! I think about putting roof rails on mine and go Camping 😄
That'd be epic!! Having camped in mine I can definitely recommend that ⛰️🏕️

Too late to re-cast it 💀 we shall find out on the trail later this week
And to my wonderful surprise, and of course, grace of God, first airbags popped out on the sides of our heads and out of my seat to protect my body from hitting the door it was awful, but amazing how well the Honda fit secured us, but we all know only by the grace of God, not a hair on our heads and that’s a miracle by the grace of God I went to a body shop and I was told that I had to replace everything but I’m not so sure when I take a good look at it so I would really love to see framing, body work or illustrations. Thank you so much. Your demeanor is so step-by-step that you make things very easy thank you. You are appreciate it.🎉
Ys definitely would like to see the way that you camp. Also, can you make a video on the different parts of the Honda body frame? I recently got hit back passenger door.

CAMARO 👀 correct spelling
Dirty looks better ❤
@@RallyChally always 🏎️💨
Very great job man! I hope that you will fix a camera on the pedalbox to film your footwork for next videos please? :)
Thank you!! I've actually got a pedal camera set up for my sim driving vlogs -- still working on the one in the car. I'll see if I can get it in the Camaro before the next rallycross competition!
@@GibbsEmphasis Great, thanks! It would be so great to have a pedalcam on your Camaro!
Is there any way to avoid understeer while happenning?
There are many methods, just gotta use them accordingly to your drivetrain
Definitely depends on the car & surface you're driving on! I'll make a video about how I do it in the Camaro. DirtFish and Team O'Neill are channels that might have good lessons on how to decrease understeer too!
Yeah it really can vary widely based on what you drive!
"It's right behind me, isn't it?" LOL
things can sneak up on you like that!!
You handle things yourself man! respect! fails are part of it! you grow with them!👍
Thank you! It's definitely worth learning things hands-on. Lots of growth for part 2 later this week 😂
Yeah i hate that el. handbrake too in my camaro! With my Challenger I have to operate the parking brake with my left foot, maybe I should try drifting with that! : )
@@RallyChally ooh definitely check the owner's manual for the Challenger just in case 😅 not sure how those foot ones work mechanically!
thanks
It may be competition for the crosstalk , but the Turbo Outback add more power and luxury the onyx is a great comparison toy th cc50 turbo close in size& price . Most reviews have them tied, but Outback is roomier. And has a bigger display that’s a real touchscreen vs the knob controlled frustration on Mazda the cvt is actually better than the6 speed as far as smoother ride and Subaru is the king of off roading with the best AWD in the bizz the Outback shorter with a longer wheelbase so it rides smoother with much more cargo space .
My caaamerooo,,,duuuudeee,,your voice is annoying
A quick FYI . The front vents are indeed functional. Only the rear ones aren’t .
You dont need to take out a fuse for this. Just pop the lights on and switch them almost off just one click before the last one
Bragging about fucking up your car doing dumb shit is inbred level of stupidity
Thanks so much
Good job..keep it up👍
I'm new at recording these simulator videos and would love to get your feedback on how to make them better! Will be posting a new driver training vlog every Tuesday now 🥳 check out the full session on my channel @GibbsEmphasis
These types of videos are both entertaining for you AND your audience - win-win 😆Love it! I'd love to see some vids of you giving yourself sim challenges, like running the same course 5x in a row to see if you can improve your time by X amount! Awesome video perspectives too!
Thank you!! Yeah I definitely enjoyed making this one 😂😂 I like that challenge idea! I'll try something like that next week for sure.
Thats great!😎 How good are you at left-foot-breaking? Does that work in the camaro? I never tried it!😄
It's a lot of fun in the sim! Really helps with front end grip and getting a little oversteer. I'm hoping to test it in the Camaro on dirt soon now that I feel more confident with it 🤠
Nope.
I was expecting it to either be the little tray that some glove boxes as as when open, or a passenger
Passengers do get promoted to cupholder duty when riding along 😂
my Porsche has the same cup holder design
As a man who owns a 91 fairlady z and 87 RX-7, you get my like sir, Cup Holders would just add weight! ✊🏽
I was going to say. Your 91 came with cup holders ?!
Actually stfu with that fake voice 🤮
Japanese actually used to have a theory about not having cup holders in their cars play believe that you should be enjoying the drive not being distracted eating your car was frowned upon in Japan for a very long time
I like this idea! It's especially easy to focus 100% on the drive with the MR2 being so fun 🤠
What k&n filter did you use?
Just the one they list for the Honda Fit! Not sure of the part number; looked it up by the model year online.
the NA Miata's Cupholders are right behind the stick shift. 😐 (look it up if interested) But, when you're driving with a cup it's incredibly awkward to shift.
Oh wow, my Camaro is like that too! It's a challenge for sure 😵💫
😂😂😂😂
