I worked at Jim Rathman Chevrolet, the dealership that was responsible for supplying all of the astronauts with their Corvettes. I only met a few, but having grown up in the shadow of the Kennedy space center, I meant many more at school and in local parades. They were Rock stars!
Lmao. Gotta love little loopholes like that. $1 magically makes it OK legally, even though the taxpayer is still basically paying for their Corvettes :D
I saw a interview with Carol Shelby and he said that the astronauts were coming out and borrowing Cobras and they seemed to wreck one every week. I would love to hear about what actually happened
Wow! I knew Brad Garrett was tall, but didn't realize he was that tall!!! WTF!? Jay Leno is pretty tall himself, and he almost looks like a dwarf next to Brad.
In the United States, professional, military, and commercial astronauts who travel above an altitude of 50 miles (80 km) are awarded astronaut wings. As of 17 November 2016, 552 people from 36 countries have reached 100 km (62 mi) or more in altitude, of whom 549 reached low Earth orbit or beyond.
The real North American X-15 rocketplane (that's a static mock-up in the video) flew to a peak altitude of 354,000 feet in 1962, and the speed flights from Nevada took six-to-eight minutes, not two. Surprised the Vice Commander of the 412th Test Wing at Edwards AFB didn't know that!
Edwards AFB to Downtown LA is about 100 miles. It's possible that the Colonel was referring to the same speed at ground level vs. 354k feet? I'm surprised you didn't think of that!
The X-15's top operational speed recorded is 4,520mph. That's 75 miles per minute. It's 90 miles from EAF to downtown LA. So it would actually take a little over 1 minute. Surprised you didn't know that!
Jim Rathman Chevrolet Corvettes are featured in the Disney+ Series "The Right Stuff." The first was Alan Shepard's 1957 Corvette as part of the original Mercury 7. Custom Gold 1960s Stingrays were purchased by the Apollo Astronauts. 427 Big Blocks, of course. Tom Hank drove one in Apollo 13. #AstroVettes #Rockstars #KSCCorvetteClub #CocoBeach #SpaceCoast #KSC #BarbaraEden #Legend #IDreamofJeanie
Ok, the title needs some work. Tim was only driving for like 10 seconds of the video. Other than that, i just wish it was the full episode. That Corvette looked interesting.
Well, they are a tractor manufacturer first & for most...they only started making super cars because Enzo Ferrari was a...well,he was Enzo Ferrari. He made all his enemies himself. LoL
That's because Jay is becoming a dud, selling out to the left and the woke culture so his new show doesn't get canceled. But his new show is on Fox and fox viewers know that comedy is Dave Chappelle and Ricky Gervais and not woke cancel culture angry ranting like we get from Stephen Colbert and now Jay Leno telling us that comedians need to change with the time and get woke or just not work

Love seeing Tim and Jay together.
I love it when these two come together.
Legend has it that Brad Garett is still cycling around that track...
Tim Allen and Jay Leno are the automotive dynamic duo!
Tim Allen's true passion🥰 is Donald Trump.
"I can hear the wind in my catheter." lol!

Ilived in Cocoa at the time. I was in elementary school and my dad worked at Grumman at KSC. I remember Jim Rathman's.
I've read that the local police could recognize the astronauts' Corvettes and wouldn't pull them over.
Not 100% sure, but didn't 1 astronaut forgo the Corvette & got a Mustang??
@@slyane7320 Believe so, can't remember who.
@@slyane7320 yeah, turned out later he was a commie.
“It’s Mr. Asphalt” 🤣🤣🤣
'I give you a hundred bucks to run over me' 😄
I love Jay and Tim
I think the make a good team together.
The cars were NOT leased for FREE. They were $1, as government employees are not allowed to accept such extravagant gifts.
Lmao. Gotta love little loopholes like that. $1 magically makes it OK legally, even though the taxpayer is still basically paying for their Corvettes :D
I just love Jay Leno. I watch all of his "Bet Your Life" game show.
From Brad Garrett to Jay Leno One this days Jay to the moon 🌝.
That saddle on the Lambike is way too low - knee issues inevitable! 🤣
Tim is a awesome guy I got to meet him once and he was very nice and funny
I’d love for these two to spend more time with Laz. I was just getting warmed up! The Bette’s are great!
Very nice C3 Corvette and a cool story behind it.
A nighthawk, sr-71, and a f16!!! Oh my god so beautiful 🥺
i think if jay ever showed up with a normal car for brad he would have a heart attack
I saw a interview with Carol Shelby and he said that the astronauts were coming out and borrowing Cobras and they seemed to wreck one every week. I would love to hear about what actually happened
Brad your hillarious!!
Absolutely love the story behind it!!!
Astronauts car?? Good one. 🙄🤪😅🤣
To be continued ? Well......🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿we're waiting.....
@4:19 is that a SR-71 in the background?!
Wow! I knew Brad Garrett was tall, but didn't realize he was that tall!!! WTF!? Jay Leno is pretty tall himself, and he almost looks like a dwarf next to Brad.
Omg what a awesome track in a beautiful location
Joking right? Lol
I didn;t know Jay was just 5'4"😁😂
Awesome episode!
I was hoping for Tim’s famous laugh but perhaps next time. LOL!
4:15 when Tim comes out, you're welcome
Awesome Fellas《☆》Oh cool now I gotta find part 2🖖😁🍗◇¿.😎🎱☮🔊🖖👍
At 7:00 the Colonel says you earn your astronaut wings by exceeding 50 miles in altitude. I thought it was 60 miles / 100km?

What a tease
Jay that's so funny is that a real Lamborghini bike so funny 👍😃
Yes it is. Sorta.
I know where these Astronaut vettes live :)
7:29 Everyone would love to go that fast if it cost a dollar. Tickets would be would be worth $1 billion realistically though.
The Corvettes for the asrtonots were hush money.
...wheres the 2nd part !!?? ;- ()
Ok, the title needs some work. Tim was only driving for like 10 seconds of the video. Other than that, i just wish it was the full episode. That Corvette looked interesting.
woohoo, my best friend owns willow springs.
Ar Ar Ar, more power.
Ten minute clip that shows less than a minute of actual advertised content.
imagine having that bike stolen?
Jay could have gave him a Lamborghini tractor that would have taken years .
The birthplace of the modern jet-age? Wouldn't that have been Berlin?
i believe X-15s have flown over 300,000 ft. altitude
Kinda reminds me of super dave osborne 😄
Brad looks a little wobbly in that bike
His center of gravity is way too high for those wheels. Plus, as Ganiscol mentioned, the seat should have been raised several inches.
Hay, who let loose
CANDY MAN
9:17 What’s with the weird fakery with the sound effects? The camera car was moving but the Corvettes weren’t.
A $20,000 dollar Ebike - ya like that will stay around long locked up ANYWHERE
Whoever bought that ebike got ripped off lol wow
Nope, I wasn’t!
They can stand next to each other but they can’t ride in the same vehicle? Is that some kind of Covid state/city rules?
You can't even get the tittle right
Worst click bait
Oh the irony.
What is a tittle?
This lambo bicycle is crap. And some how they wanted to sell it. Good luck.
Well, they are a tractor manufacturer first & for most...they only started making super cars because Enzo Ferrari was a...well,he was Enzo Ferrari. He made all his enemies himself. LoL
Now down to crapppppp like this
That low Jay
20k.....I would rather rent a house
Ha ha ha. A Bike ha ha ha
7 payments...
Not many of Jay's videos flop... but this one is a dud.
That's because Jay is becoming a dud, selling out to the left and the woke culture so his new show doesn't get canceled.

@@rugfixr Leftists ruin everything. Soon they will ruin themselves and we'll be through this mess.
Gawd... These CNBC Prime episodes are awful.
That was pretty much click bate
First view and first comment !!!!!
congratulations and salutations Waleed Habibi🎉🎉🎉
You're only first until someone else posts, then you're last..... forever.😕
Waste of unfinished video.
Such an ugly place, it makes me mad just watching this video.
$20k e-bike Shut up
what a dork...I wouldn't let him drive my lawn mower..........you can do better than Brad Jay

That guy is annoying...
Jay, this was a terrible episode
Astro-not earth is flat
