Default 2019 ZR1 @ Drag Strip WTH!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mD-XQotZ8q4

Cold day and running 130 MPH this does not equal 755HP
If so Bob's and Kevin's LT5 ZR-1's must have 850hp both run 135+MPH.
WTH!!!
Can somebody please explain this.

I would've love to see his timeslip.
Pete

Ahhhh....... that is Street speeds channel. I've been watching his Youtube Vids for a few years now. He now has TWO brand new ZR1s, one manual the other automatic. He also has a 750 McLaren......He makes all his money from his Youtube channel. He seems like a nice guy, but comes across as annoying and arrogant.

How he got the 1st manual Z offered is beyond me, I'd say because of the popularity of his channel. He keeps saying he will buy the mid engine Corvette when it come out. And I bet he will have one of the 1st ones offered for public sale.

On his website.

This is how he gets his money and how he has time to play on youtube.

I said the same exact thing..He also owns a home and a brand new McLaren....Did a little research on him....He actually has over 700,000 subscribers for his you tube handle street speed 717.....

From what I hear he makes 12,000 a month from you tube alone....I would guess that figure is a little high.Its probably close to ten grand a month ..

He works for a small brokerage firm and I would guess his salary is maybe about 40-50 K from that..He also invests on his own....

He actually is well spoken and really has made a name for himself with his you tube videos....
