[Gilles27]

Added Nitrous then broke axle!

I don't think GM will be covering that one under warranty!

What does that clown imply at 32sec?

Nope. Any mechanical modifications voids your warranty.

I thought the same thing "canadian crap" don't know the context ! Talking about steering wheel?

Yeah I know. What up with that? Wonder if he even knows the transmissions are made in Mexico? GM like other companies cant make every part on their cars at their plant.

Thread Title is misleading for those who will drive normally.
Should be titled "jackass breaks his C8 after modifying it"

Sad to think this may not be the first and only modified failure ...

I assume he means parts made in Mexico with Chinese materials are not Canadian "crap". We will never know...

Looks like he had to do the push of shame. LOL. Cars are designed with how much power they can put out. Beyond that other things have to be modified to withstand the extra power. Even frames can be twisted with extreme horse power. But some people think they know more than educated engineers.

According to the owner/company who owns the C8 he believes it broke a half shaft on the shift from first to second, they had a lot of wheel hop and the driver did not lift apparently. Sprayed 100 nitrous shot just as the shift was made. He is hoping the transmission is not broken.

Canada doesn't make anything. So we shouldn't be insulted like that. LOL.

Thanks. Interesting. Great for LG who are about to launch new half shafts I suspect.

That DCT must be worth a fortune glad it's him and not me my stomach would be in knots if I thought I damaged it with no warranty, "canadian crap" should be "dumb american" who adds nitrous anymore with the performance of modern day sports cars

It looks like a bunch of Bubba rednecks to me. No clue and doing anything for clicks. Soon there will be some real good properly moded C8s all over youtube done by guys who have a brain between them. Embarrassing to even watch these clowns.
I think we are soon going to see some incredible numbers being laid down as this car really hooks up. Add some properly planned power and some drag slicks by the "right" guys and.... wow good.

What was the N shot??

What was the N shot??

I think it was a 150 but don't quote me.
