also first
2 MILLION Subs! Go donut! Been here before even 1M! Keep it up guys!
Saleen made the Decepticon Barricade for the Michael Bay Transformers movies. SN281
Please do a review on the TVR SPEED 12 and am letting you know that I enjoy your show . And am watching it from Barbados . Great job
Knowing that Steve Saleen is intentionally trying to keep the younger crowd into racing, and automotive sports makes me pretty happy.
Not just younger but for real the less fortunate who never get that chance.
The S7 generated more downforce than it's weight. In theory meaning it could drive upside down.
Except it would be doing 160mph while theoretically weighing almost nothing. If it generated twice it's downforce then it would be as if it where doing 160mph with all of it's aerodynamics disabled and having no downforce beyond it's own weight. So you really need somewhere in excess of 2x it's own weight in downforce for it to be viable, then all you need is the tunnel. We have the car, any modern f1 car will do, it's just the tunnel that's missing.
Yea you copied that word for word from Doug demuro

Absolutely love your videos! Thank you for bringing your talent and charisma to this channel!
I have only just found this channel, and I love it, you guys make me laugh and don’t take cars and talking about them to seriously, I have a habit of turning videos off as soon as they start talking about heeling and toeing like anyone does that in the real world, I loves cars and I love to laugh so this is a perfect channel for keep up the good work....

I think Steve is the only tuner that even comes close to Shelby with his innovation. (Even though Shelby is still leaps and bounds ahead of any other company to do what he's done.)
At 1:53 he’s “tinkering” under the hood however in a Porsche 356 the engine is in the back. 🤫 your secrete is safe with me...
Eddie Mix If he wasn't yelling so damn much he could probably think straight and remember that
I think hood should have been in quotes.
@@JDMHaze its that guys in the audience fault, he keeps instigating james
Wouldnt that technically be the editors fault?
We all know that he did some part swaps
Do one on Alpina, it's the same principles but for BMW
Omg thank you, I suggested thisnon the stream!

Can we do a polestar one too then

I am so happy to see this one!! Owned three speedsters in my life. Easily my favorite manufacturer.
Yeah I remember my humble beginning started with my dad who could afford a Porsche giving me his old one. Such modest means I mean.
was thinking just the same thing. I mean, how many teens receive a friggin Porsche for their highschool graduation?

I'm happy to say that I've worked for Saleen before
fixing their computers LOL
Hey thats pretty cool tho
Isaak Welch I've also got to see some various projects and cars they had in the back... would love to send y'all some photos of the cars I've seen! I also got to speak with some of the engineers.. cool stuff tbh
@@ssxlbc i remeber they had some Saleen For Explorer/suv prototypes som might produced, am not sure i remember them from TestDrive OffRoade games so :D
StigDesign1 when I was there, I didn't see anything along those lines but they sure has a lot of Mustangs and F150s in their garage being worked on, along with some other fun looking cars.. I never signed a non disclosure agreement, but I don't wanna push my luck. I will say, one of their in-house Saleen S7s had enough power to put the "Holy Trinity" to shame 😂😂😂 here's a hint: 1.2... but add 2 zeros and 🤐
@@ssxlbc oh i see hehe nice :D yeah i guess soo, saleen xp8 that was in the old games of TestDrive offRoad ;D thats ok its safe that way, i can understand that they might have made s7 alot bether somewah secret with modern stuff/parts/matterial`s etc :D
Sir, the energy you put into your videos is terrific! I bet you could be talking about the most boring subject in the universe and still'd be killing it!
Dude this guy's review sounds like a lullaby for me even with all the screams. MORE PAWA BABY!!!
Saleen is one of the greatest car companies in the world. Great video 👍👍. Up To Speed: The rivalry between James Hunt and Niki Lauda.
You've got Rush(2013) for that.
Apparently there is one Shelby Mustang GT500 Saleen. So the story goes there is one customer who had a new GT500 and he took it to Saleen and ask if he can modified it. The word spreads and apparently Caroll Shelby contact Saleen about it. Both man eventually agree that after this car, Saleen won't tuned another Shelby badged vehicle but both parties allowed the finished car to carry both legends name and remains the only official Shelby-Saleen.
YOU GUYS ARE WONDERFUL!
thanks for the great work:)
cant wait for more motorcycles.
I randomly picked up a car magazine in high school that had the pre release S7 in it. I was always sorta into cars, but the S7 is when when I became completely obsessed. My favourite layout still to this day is Mid Rear, all thanks to the S7
Everything you need to know to get up to speed on TVR
actually legit
Yes
Body gaps are horrendous on every tvr
That moment when your favorite car channel listens to you. Brings tears to my eyes 😭
Emry Breedlove me too buddy, me too 😫😢😌
That channel is so good ... Glad it came up on the recomended !!!
It is now April 2021. You are now above 5 Million subs... that's a lot of buff horse, more powa!!, and healthier heart episodes! I love you guys!
This was a great UpToSpeed episode! I actually learned a lot more about Saleen than I previously knew. What a badass team!
Back in the day when the S7 twin turbo first came out, it was said it created enough downforce & power to complete a real life hot wheels loop, this useless fact has stuck with me for the better part of 17 years, and now you know it too.
yeah that got thrown around a lot hahaha it stuck in everybodies head
Thanks. I also heard modern F1 cars create so much downforce they can, in theory, drive upside down in a tunnel.
JV S I wonder if it's true? Say anybody got a S7 they wanna test? 😂
Rage _Gamer I would not be surprised to find that that is true
@@TechDove old post but that is true, the s7 probably couldn't because youd need twice as much down force as weight to stick you upside down. F1 cars could do it, we just don't have the tunnel for it (and why would we haha)
I remember a few Saleens in my community back in the early 90s and I always thought they were the coolest Mustangs ever. They had this beautiful "flip flop" (as we called it lol) paint job that changed color as Sun light hit the car from different angles. They were also the coolest sounding cars "period". The sound that came out of those Dynomax mufflers were eargasmic. It's interesting to note that my lightly modified 08 Mazdaspeed 3 now has as much power as those old Saleens!? lol
13:41 - Its called the Camaro 620 b/c it has a 6.2 Ltr V8. The Dodge Challenger version is called the 570 b/c 5.7 Ltr V8.

I think they already did that
I'm sure I've watched that before
Just go watch last episode of The Grand Tour
I love all the episodes and this one is by far my favorite of all. Great story
Thank you Saleen to make one of my favorite cars!
YOU FORGOT THE COOLEST DETAILS OF THE SALEEN S7!
All the suspension underneath the car is tucked up and out of the way and replaced with a flat carbon fibre underbody which creates a low pressure zone under the car sucking it to the road and creating enough downforce that this car can literally drive upside down if it was going fast enough.
HOW CAN YOU LEAVE THAT OUT?
He did say that it "generates it's own weight in downforce at 160". ;-)
@@falconpowerful2362 He failed to mention HOW the car does this and why its important
@@cooperk9073 dang dude calm down its alot of information to cover
@@huntercorrales6794 Why call it "everything you need to know" if it's not EVERYTHING. By your logic they should call it "Some stuff about cars".
@@cooperk9073 well it said everything about the company not the car.
Finally ive been waiting for this forever, now we need an S7 on bumber 2 bumper
Recently met Steve. He signed my car and talked with me about it for a few minutes. Really nice guy and its awesome that at 73 he still races. Also got to see the 3rd Saleen ever built
Man I love your show man ❤️❤️❤️! You’re so creative I bloody love it 😊
Can your next up to speed be on Niki Lauda
Yes please
Beat me to it. Can we pin this? : )
Me: saving for an s7
Donut: make a video for Saleen
s7 prices: skyrocket
Me: pulls all $100 from savings to blow for the weekend
Donut: shows s1, cheaper than s7
Me: puts remaining $3 back into savings.
You have too much free time tho.

I didn't think you'd ever do Saleen. I've been in love with Saleen since I was a kid. My grandfather was a salesman at a Ford dealer that sold them.
This is one of my favorite up to speeds. I have a deep new found respect for saleen
awesome vid. Congratulations on 2 million subs. UP TO SPEED ON COSWORTH!!!
As it is said in the bible. -LIGHTNING! LIGHTNING! LIGHTNING!

This guy is a riot man . Always makes the videos better.
As a kid I had a poster of a Saleen S7, at the time I had no idea about Saleen or even the S7. Thought it was just something random I'd been given. Thank you for this amazing information. Steve Saleen is an amazing man.
Would be cool if you guys did something on Niki Lauda!!
I think this is a must do
they should do it for their 100th up to speed episode, that would be amazing
Rest In Peace to the Legend.
Avxnt 100th episode is already shot but maybe we’ll get to do Lauda, Senna and more people focused ones in the future!

Love to hear about Lingenfelter from you guys. Believe it would be the most informational video about them I've heard yet
You can techincally still buy a brand new Saleen S7. Back in 2016, Saleen announced it will produce limited edition S7 LM for $1 million. For that you will get slightly updated S7 with 1300hp engine and centerlock wheels among others. At first the project was mocked especially by one of the US based car site. With evidence suggest that Saleen had badly photoshopped old S7 publicity photos and claimed it as new S7. But in 2017 they unveiled the first S7 LM and interestingly it didn't have S7 Comp pack wings and it did not have facelift of SS7 that I mentioned in other comments of this video. At the best of my knowledge I haven't seen another S7 LM being produced and sold.
Thanks for putting me on I kinda feel like i know something about cars after watching like 3 of your videos, love the commentary your a comedian 😂
Great guy. Met him in 1999 at the Charlotte Motor Speedway at the 35th Anniversary of the Mustang. Got a pic of him with my daughter in the infield. Thank you Mr Saleen.
Finally FINALLY someone does a proper vid about Saleen!. The company has had some hard times thru the years but their still here and im still a lucky owner of an s281Speedster.
Y'all showed the wrong Lightning, you showed the 2nd gen, 2nd gen has the s/c 5.4
1st gen 93-95 bodystyle has the 5.8w
That drove me crazy lol
Were wright?
Off topic, but it’s crazy that today’s Lariat crew cab is faster to 60, by a long shot, than yesterday’s single cab, V8 Lightning.

The end of this video was heart warming ... its amazing for me as a car guy to see someone creating opportunities for future race car drivers who aren't rich... We wouldn't have Lewis Hamilton today if Mclaren didn't give him that chance and now we have a potentially 7 time WDC. Awesome vide Donut Media this made me smile
Came here to say this- "Where's the LeBron of motorsport?" well he's currently smashing records at Merc-AMG idk what to tell you.
But absolutely agree the Saleen Cup's young driver program is going to hopefully open a lot of doors.
James! You melt me, you threw the foxbody in there! Great vid thanks.

A new Saleen One is just what we need, looks amazing!
I had 3 car posters on my wall as a kid. The Saleen S7, the McLaren F1, and the ‘99 Viper GTS. I also had a lot of drag cars, but those were the only 3 production cars I had posters of. I still love the S7.
The S7 Dominated for a good while. If only the guys at top gear got a hold of it. If the respected the Ford GT and Hennessy Viper, they wouldve loved the S7
Um....Hennessey Viper???. It's Dodge Viper and Hennessey Venom GT
@@theCybericope No, he meant Hennessy Viper and he's totally right. HPE have been building upgraded Vipers since '99.
I have a feeling Clarkson doesn't respect the GT and HPE Viper. I know he said a little good about the GT40 but not much. I think given the mid-engine and Ferarri F40-ish rear end, he might appreciate it a little more than the Corvette.
