1963 Corvette 20 Weird Facts

[Chuck G.]

Surprised nobody has posted this yet. Just saw it the other day.

Lots of outrageous claims.

Have at it.

Yea, I saw that. Lots of BS. The commentator got off to a very poor start, not pronouncing Duntov properly. It went downhill from there.

[Jim L.]

It's an AI "hallucinating".

(Yes, "hallucinating" is the real term for an AI inventing information.)

I didn't find the secret Grand Sport disk brakes inside my SWC's drums, but I did find the secret rear suspension holes and used them, so now my SWC can outhandle F1 cars.

This video is worth a laugh, and Youtube if full of similar nonsense like the "secret world beating 302 that was banned" or something like that. It talks about Chevy engines while showing stills of Ford engines, and talks about Trans Am at Riverside while showing video clips of Riverside NASCAR races.

I'm not up to speed on AI, but I assume the voice is AI generated given the sometimes goofy pronunciation and the fact that most of these hokey automotive videos sound like the same narrator, but how is it generated? Does someone write a script and then submit it to an AI program that creates the voice? Can anyone explain?

If you type in this youtuber's name in the search box you'll find a whole bunch of other "20 weirdest facts..." videos. Who knows, he may be making a ton off all this fabricated nonsense.

I think one of the best comments I saw on one of these ridiculous videos went something like "20 minutes for a five minute video".

Well, that gives us a bit more insight into AI. I must admit, all info presented was new to me. I wonder why Mr. "Doontov" kept all these secrets? For all those midyear fuelie owners out there (I am one) that like personalized license plates, I have a suggestion based on the video. How about "Lady 4"? When I kept hearing lady four I thought "what the hell is he talking about". Then I figured it out....genius! Anyway, if those 20 facts are all true, great information to have...I guess.

[Arland D.]

Facts? Really?? Urban legends are contemporary stories, often spread by word-of-mouth, that are presented as true events.

What a bunch of horse excrement.......

I should add these to the Seminar Andy and I are doing at the National this year!!!
