20 minutes of loud yelling and no actual information as to what happened. Could be a loose fitting to the transmission cooler or something. I know my GT350 had a minor leak from an oil cooler line and a torn axle boot within the first 2,000 miles. This doesn't mean the car is complete junk.

Remember, he’s in the business of getting clicks and views on his channel. That’s how he makes money. Could be something as simple as what Kyle mentioned above with a loose fitting, but that type of video doesn’t generate clicks and views. 15 hours to move the car 50 feet tells me all I need to know. I don’t think his Z06 is ā€œbrokenā€, probably something simple that could happen to anyone. Sorry, I just get really skeptical when it comes to these career YouTubers and what they’re willing to say/do for views. I did get a chuckle out of him buying the wrong size wheel dollies though (wouldn’t shock me if that was done intentionally for content).

2017 GT350 now gone to a great home.
I bought a new C4 back in the day and after driving it home it was leaking trans fluid all over my garage. Turned out to be a bad casting in the transmission tail piece and they had to install a new transmission in my Corvette with 50 miles on it. 😳

Ahhhh... reminds me of the days when "Busted Voodoo" was a click magnet. Exact same M.O. Lots of moaning, lots of hand wringing, not much information. Mustang GT owners are still watching that stuff and think it means something... C8 Z51 owners will be crowing about how much more reliable their pushrod V8's are in a few days.

I guess I should have explained my post. Sorry, I thought you all could read my mind šŸ˜‰ I didn’t watch the whole video because as a grown man that kid is hard to watch.
JAJ hit the nail on the head. ā€œAnd so it beginsā€ was just what JAJ articulated. Let the crap fly. Before you know it, the Z06 FPC is doomed due to poor engineering , bla, bla, bla.

That's about how it goes the loudest voices are usually some guy with 10 thumbs and little common sense.

Fk this guy gave me a headache. Why can't he simply get to the fkn point instead of beating around in the bush. I hate people like that.

I'll bet a dollar he poured some trans fluid under the car just to make the video.

Hey look, it's leaking.

Things like these happen all the time. Sucks that it happened to him but oh well.

I hate that dude. He drives me crazy. Being in Utah, he's almost hailed as some local hero. He's a self-absorbed douche.
