Vid of The-Hoe vs colbalt SS + some

[THE-HOE]

I was bored so i figured i would throw this together, this is raw footage of me racing a supercharged colbalt SS, then doing some doughnuts, and drifting a little. The cobalt made 210hp at the wheels, which is good considering they are only 205hp at the motor stock.

are you the same guy that jumped his hoe on youtube and had to rebuild it completely?

um. Well i have jumped it many times a few years back when i was young and dumb. And yes when it was wrecked it had to have frame modifications done cause it snapped the frame cross member off. I wouldn't say I had to rebuild it completely. I have more money into transmissions for this thing then it cost for the whole front end getting redone and a paint job.

They certainly do help... at lest you still have a 6.0L im back to a 5.3 for now.

It does have a turbo helping it out tho.

 

[thehoe92]

noob question alert haha!

would it even work with your setup?

ALWAYS loved the videos, you are definitely an inspiration lol I get my hoe sideways any chance I can on wet pavement I just need to make some videos

and yes..he could do a blackbear tune, but im guessing he has some local tuner who did it for him..which is basically the same as a blackbear tune since they either use efi live or hp tuners to tune it for the cam, tubro etc..

I have never been a fan of mail order tunes, I have gotten dyno tuned once and it seemed to be the best for me. The shop that dynoed it was pretty rude though, and apparently thought its "gay" to put money into a Tahoe. My next tune is getting done from Quik, if you know who he is...

That setup is long gone now, the 6.0 is lust sitting in pieces, soon to be a forged 402. But for now i am a 5.3 again, with a turbo.

Anyway, next time you go out you should deffinetally take your camera, Being lowered these Tahoe really don't feel top heavy at all, sure its not a corvette, but i guarantee you will not see a ford SUV doing any drifting without some serious work, when all we need is some wider tires, and a cheap lowering kit. Film some stuff, I could put together a vid with combined footage

In this video there was no turbo, this was all motor. If i had a turbo i would have had many lengths on him. This video is over a year old, when i just had the 6.0L my fron bumper grille whistles once i hit about 90mph.

yeah true I was just throwing it out there, I had a feeling you already had a "guy" that does that for you already, lol I'm not going to teach you anything you seem to have it handled

http://www.youtube.com/user/iSchutz

subscribe and I'll try to make one, also check the videos
I'm sure I can whip up something badass I've been planning shots ever since I learned I could drift my hoe

I love it because now that I actually have shocks in and I'm about as low as I can go all around I just throw it in tow-haul come up to a corner that has a merge lane, tap the gas let the wheel spin, catch it, feather the throttle a little and pull out of it while I watch everyones face like OMG a ******* full sized SUV just drifted

some corners are so easy too especially banked ones it doesn't take much at all for my 24's to get spinning loose and my back end to just every so slightly whip out


what are you running suspension wise?
any aftermarket sway bars?

thats your youtube? you into film production at all? I am a film major in college so I have been making all sorts of videos, not really any with vehicles though. Alot of stuff with after effects, and avid or premiere pro. If you are into some filming what type of camera do you use? i mostly use an HVX and film in 1080/24p but i have been messing around with 60fps a lot lately.

As for my tahoe, i am just using a cheap torion key drop/ 3 inch coil rear drop. Stock air shocks in the rear, and stock shocks up front. Stock sway bars also, I have been putting so much money into making my tahoe fast, i have not worked on anything else really.

 

[thehoe92]

I was into film production for the longest time up until I bought my tahoe and thats when all my money went into it

..actually I got my screen name after watching one of your videos HAHA!!

but yeah I bought the Canon HV10 when it was brand new for about $1200 its only 1080i but I know how to work it into looking like some badass footage

I am dying to use 60fps DEFINITELY recommend that for drift videos.. film in normal 60fps take it into your editor double the frames and you now have 120 fps drift SEX!!! so slow mo

I use Final Cut Studio on my iMac and taught myself how to edit, I've used Sony Vegas, Adobe Premiere, I have seen Avid but never worked with it, they are all basically the same underneath it all just a matter of getting it to do what you want

Blizzard on here has a car mount with suction cups and we have been meaning to get my HD cam on there so he can follow me and catch me drifting around

my drop came in stages, I was at a 2/3 like you at one point and remember it was easier to get sideways, but once I dropped down to where I'm at now its like butter, no body roll what so ever so you have so much control over the ass

sway bars I've read will also make it way more predictable and Max said he can walk the back end out on dry pavement in his Denali

That excites me to drop my Tahoe more, but it is 4wd... so i have to figure something out.

im at a 3/5 with the same drop you have..drop keys decranked and 5" springs in rear...pick up some 2" spindles and drop the front more and get some 5" springs for the rear and you will be all set..im 4x4 as well

 

[imtbear69]

Great vid,what mods have you done to the truck ?

I actually didnt know they made 2" spindles for 4wd, that's some good news! besides getting shorter shocks/shock extenders what do you have to have to run the 5 inch drop coils in the back? or do you just need to coils and the shocks?

 

[thehoe92]

I've got 4x4 as well

here's what you need..
coils.. get belltech 5305 they will get you 5" in the rear and ride close to stock, takes like 2 weeks to settle
shorter shocks like some Belltech Street Performance, you don't necessarily need shock extenders its just for more travel

you already have 2" keys so if you got 2" spindles it would give you a lot of play in the front end, and shorter shocks for the front as well

then you will want to cut the whole bump stop bracket off in order to get enough travel

try to find some stiff shocks, I like my DJM shocks, they handle great



oh and more videos please
