  • Being scared in a car is not a new thing - but what happens when you actually seek out that fear? Today we talk about the scariest cars I've ever driven out of the literal 1000+ cars driven by myself the last decade. So what is the most wild? Let's talk about it.

      Mustang Lifestyle’s 07 GT500 Coyote Swapped with the 76mm Turbo is the scariest car I think I’ve ever rode in. Extremely violent and easily the fastest car I’ve ever been in. And with it being my first real race car ride along, I wasn’t used to all the sounds and feelings that come with it.

      My dads friend had a 911 gt3RS. At my full potential I probably drove that car on the track at 35% on the high end. That was while I thought the car was gonna crash on the ragged edge. I then did 5 laps with a professional driver from Porsche. He drove that car on the actual ragged edge and it was the most terrifying experience I’ve ever had on 4 wheels. Second was my dads 15 GT mustang with a blower and built suspension and drivetrain. That car would break SC2 tires loose in 4th gear on the interstate. Had to pull over when it rained. That car was a trip in a straight line.

    The scariest car I've ever experienced is my self built LS swapped 95 Impreza Ute. The first 2 iterations of the car was so unwieldy I was terrified to drive it. I've still not once used full throttle. Its getting better as I add bigger and beefier parts to it. ATM its getting frame stiffening and a new solid rear end on a 4 link. I've learned so much from this car I consider it my post grad degree.

    The Omni is why I clicked on this video. My dad had an 87 Shelby Charger. Out of all the cars I've driven over the years I think that's the one I would most like to have. It may not be considered fast today but, my god, when the boost kicked in that car screamed and the fight was on to keep the wheel straight. So much freaking fun.

    Scariest was my friends C5Z racing our other friend. We got up to around 160mph because neither wanted to let out, little did I know that the ABS module for his brakes was broken so we had no ABS. We ended up coming up on traffic and needed to stop, as soon as he pumped the brakes we spun out and went across 5 lanes and into the side of the road. NO DAMGE or anyone was hurt and you just hear me say "woooo" after we come to a stop hah.

    Scariest for me was experiencing a FI 350Z after having driven a stock one. With the traction control off it would just spin the tires in first gear if you floored it and second gear could break loose if you weren't careful, heck even third could be scary if you didn't know what you were doing. Really teaches respect for power, what added power can do to the way a car drives. I say that because stock you can just put your foot down with little to worry about.

    Car? 1971 Chevelle when I was working at Sears auto center in college. Had to do an alignment on it, and, of course, that meant a road test afterwards. I found it strange that it had Z speed rated tires on it (and they were "huge" for that time, 17's lol). I aligned it and took it out, and realized immediately that I was in WAY over my head. Just breathing on the throttle made it want to swap ends, the power came on like being hit in the face with a baseball bat- sudden, violent, and in such a way that you ended up feeling victimized. The scariest part about it was 4 wheel drum brakes, and no power assist.
    I realized pretty quickly that the factory alignment specs (which I had it st to) weren't going to cut it, and brought it back and completely re-did the setup (as much caster as I could get, I think I set it at a degree or so negative camber, and pretty close to zero toe). I also had the customer drive it on the second go-round. Dude was in his late 40's, and able to drive it so smoothly that I was left questioning my own ability behind the wheel. He built stock cars, and built the Chevelle out of stuff he had lying around his shop. The guy was cool and all, but I was glad when we got back to the shop in one piece, and that evil beast of a car was out of the parking lot.

    Tbh scariest car I've ever been in was probably a replica of a 1918 Mercer Raceabout. It probably doesn't compare to any of the cars in this video, but that thing has no doors or roof or really any bodywork around you and barely anything to hold onto. The windshield is a little round piece of glass mounted to the steering column, and the passenger gets goggles. You sit in a little bucket seat with basically no back, and a non-original seatbelt the owner/builder added, and that's it. Add in the relatively primitive suspension and eager torquey 4-cylinder and that car felt like it was going highway speeds at 30 mph. And these things could go over 100 mph back in the day... 100 mph in that thing must've felt like 300 mph in a modern car. I don't think very many people today realize how crazy insane antique sports cars are to drive or ride in, they don't have to be "fast" to make you fear for your life lol. I want one, they're awesome :) I gotta build a Model T speedster at some point, it's probably the cheapest and easiest way to replicate the experience, and they're kind of the precursor to hot rods, or the original tuner car depending on how you look at it.

Absolute riot. 450lbs, 80whp, crazy short gearing (topped out at about 80), and capable of 2.5g lateral, set up with real snappy steering as it is set up for a very tight course. And the thought in your mind that its all designed and built by a bunch of college students.

    My $60 civic. It was an 89 ef hatch that had been totalled twice. The steering wheel was a 6 inch drag wheel, no power steering. You touched a wire to the steering column to honk the horn. The headlights were not attached just shut under the hood. The key was a random Honda key I found in the junk yard. It was painted using handicap parking spot paint and one of the engine mounts had broken so the engine smacked the firewall with every gearshift. The tires were all old and bald. One night I got 5 tickets in one sitting for various illegal things about the car. I then drove home in pouring rain for 45 miles. The windshield wipers proceeded to fall off so I stuck my head out of the window. Then I hit a rabbit. I pulled over to reevaluate my life and then drove home. I never got in that car again and I gave it away. If I had kept driving that car at 17, I probably wouldn't have had the opportunity to buy my typhoon a couple years later. Moral of the story: just because you can drive a P.O.S doesn't mean you should.

    Scariest car for me was my dad's old ASTRO-van. Not because it was fast, but because he would absolutely whip that thing. I remember thinking about how top heavy this van was, closing my eyes and waiting for us to roll it. His response was always: "Ah, it's fine. It's got Michelin's on it."
    Omni-vores were the ultimate sleepers back in the day. Went to high school with a guy who had a turbo omni.

    Nice video! Some savage cars there!
    Just one thing when you said you learned the difference between a quick car and a fast car, i think it's more likely you meant a quick car and a really quick or a fast car and a really fast car.
    A car can be quick and not very fast or vice versa or even both (quick and fast) etc.
    As quick is usually to do with the acceleration and fadt is the top speed. So for example a Rally car is often insanely quick but not fast as the roads usually wont have long straights to get a good top speed so they're geared to maybe only have a top speed of 120 but can get there in seconds

    My top 2 "stupid scary" cars so far.
    1)1970 VW bug, 182hp at the wheels, 230 on the bottle. It wasn't that it was distance fast. It was scarry as crap coming out of the hole where she wanted to put the front in the air and just GO. Miss that one, ended up rolling it on the track at around 110mph when a front wheel let go right at the eighth.
    2)Honestly my current toy. 2004 Subaru Forester XT, currently 425whp, 420 torque, 6mt swap, street car that digs way, way too hard. Just waiting for the new motor to go in, then we can turn it up and go for 600.

    I worked as an assistant mechanic at a local Porsche dealership. Mostly working on the classic stuff. The scariest was maybe a yellow 1979 911 SC with a 3.2 liter stroker with a RUF style bodykit. You had to be ginger on the throttle because it easily broke traction.

Normally not a scary car, but a beater Ford Fusion going 115 on a bumpy 2 lane road will always be scarier than any high horsepower import to me. The feeling of getting air over bumps and constantly being unable to hold a lane with trees on both sides is not a good one

    Scariest car for me was my Dads 1965 Sunbeam Tiger with 500hp and revved to 7.5k rpm. Basically a Miata sized car with 500hp on 14" wheels. Not the highest Hp car I've ever driven but when you jumped on it you were sawing that wheel like crazy to keep it straight. Still in the family and driven regularly after 45 years. 🤘🏻

    Scariest car I drove is my 120 HP Golf. Doesn't compare to those cars on this video. But even my normal commuter car can get up to 200 Kmh. And reaching that for the first time felt unnerving. It's crazy that some people build like 1000 HP Evos and Supras.

    I had a cobbled together 72 torino with a built 429 in it. There were rust holes in the floor big enough to drop your cell phone through. 4 speed manual. Posi rear. Made just shy of 500rwhp. But it was no power steering. No power brakes. Everything rattled and vibrated. But when you mashed the skinny pedal, it was absolutely terrifying.

    @iamsaaw Před 10 měsíci +1

    A heavily modded (swapped but I can’t remember with what) 1992 Toyota Starlet GT Turbo that was sub-2000 pounds and was pushing 380hp. If you went past half throttle too quickly, you were pretty much destined to lose it all.

  • @netgnostic1627
    @netgnostic1627 Před 10 měsíci +1

    Straight-road terror moments? My friend had a V8 Vega, 400 small-block Chevy with a nitrous switch hooked into the throttle linkage. If you put your foot in it about 97%, you had 450hp. At 98%, 650hp.
    His brother had a Toyota Land Crusher with a 454 using the original Toyota transmission. Again, nitrous, at least 500hp, at the time nobody around had a 4WD chassis dyno so we weren't sure. (I don't know how, but that transmission survived.)
    Both of those vehicles were terrifying.

    The scariest car I've ever ridden and driven is my brother's 1979 Pontiac Grand Prix SJ. He swapped the stock 301 with a crate supercharged 383 stroker, and that thing was scary fast. I currently have a 2022 Hellcat, and it is not even close to the feeling of that Grand Prix.

    My dad had a 66 Chevy Nova with about 400 hp 350. I really hadn't driven a lot of sketchy cars at that time, and this is the only one I've ever driven with variable steering alignment. The first time I launched it, I turned the steering wheel 90 degrees to the left. Got off the gas and it went back to center. The rear end didn't step out; just the front end would twist that much under load. He eventually took it to a race shop to get the front end braced properly and switched to an LT1 from a catfish Camaro. It was much more civilized then, but honestly lacked that initial exhilaration from the first drive.

    For me the scariest was a 2002 Monte Carlo SS. It had a supercharged LS3, still fwd, and an automatic trans with paddle shifters, and made close to 550-600whp on 93. It was aslo on a 235 all season tire up front. This thing spun from a 60 roll all the way up to the top of 4th at around 125mph. The guy just wanted to burn the tires cause he had 255 semi slicks ready to put on so we figured doing burnouts and doing 2nd gear 20 rolls would be fun. It was but it was also absolutely butthole clenching. I've been in a 900hp r35, 700hp b58 Supra, and a 700hp big turbo Eclipse gsx but that Monte Carlo made me shit bricks.
