  • beat a H/C corvette ??!!! Dam that insight is no joke!

  • that was the fastest sewing machine i have ever seen.

  • I have an Insight, was turboed but after the MPGs went to crap and the it still wasn't remotely fast I bought a viper instead and put the insight back to stock, lol.

  • Hey Dean, you should change the title of the video. That was my vette. Stock with just an axle back.

  • Haha wow, didn't see that coming! Props to the builder of that insight!

  • i wont a insight now :)

  • how much does that little thing weight ? is is it lighter than a eg hatchback ?

  • If I could get my hands on a cheap insight shell i would find a recked RSX type S and swap all that shit in plus some internals and maybe boost. the all aluminum body of the insight is genius to swap!

  • Coming from a Domestic guy here.. that insight is fucking awesome.. I would rock that all day.

  • He was still pulling at the end lol

  • @CaMaRo1RoC89- correction man, Mustangs and Beamers are Overrated! Goats are VERY underrated for what it's potential really is, which is why you can buy a 5.7L 350hp M6 Goat for under $20k now a days. Plus Theyre as rare to spot as a Ferrari! And much like your IROC man, its got "lots of bang for your buck!" so I think you had your facts upside down/=

  • gay insite is gay. Even if it was the fastest car on the planet No true car enthusiast would ever respect it.

  • @SICKJ0KER Speak for yourself. I am a "true" car enthusiast and I think that K20 insight is awesome. Also, if you think I am a honda fanboy check my page.

  • Corvette & gto "look at this fuel efficient jap scrap" insight "later bustas!" lmao

  • fake... even if it was real an asian wide eyed chink head doesnt even know how to operate a corvette

  • i lol'd what even happend?

  • DAMN! Respect on that one! When I first saw the vid I thought this was a typo-insight!?- WTF!-but that was pretty cool

  • that shit is crazy fast.... and gtos are over rated

  • cops will never fuck with you if they saw you in an insight!

  • men use the throttle not the bottle

  • @randombk82894 read title dumbass no bottle k-series bitch look it up

  • @MrGetmoney84 hes uses spray on like 4 other vids so hes prob using it here

  • @randombk82894 Yea he spays on 2nd and 3rd gears

  • Pos

  • It looks like less is more!

    Less stupid people build better cars, that's a fact.

  • kudos to the mods...but really At the end of the day, what do you have? an insight.... insurance sees it as an insight, the girls see it as an insight, you might be outta sight in the insight but really a crack house with a grand piano...is still a crack house ;-)

  • @vettedog Dumbest comment ever fucking made in history of youtube hands fucking down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @MrGetmoney84 Got enough exclamation's? lol 

  • I dont care how fast that insight is... that car is fugly as f*ck!... Id get b*ches with a corvette, but with an insight???

  • obviously the vette driver sucked it a fwd car beat him off he line

  • @kmk408ci

    it doesn't matter how good the vette driver is buddy, the insight weighs alot less and will come off the line much faster regardless

  • @jacob0403 not necessarily true, just because the insight weighs a lot less doesn't mean it will make up for the traction issues when racing a fwd car from a dig. A good driver launching a rwd car should be able to take a fwd car with the same power to weight ratio every time.

  • @kmk408ci and u are a dumbass lmao u obviously have never raced!!!!!!!!!!! totally not True! 

  • @jacob0403 take a look at C5 Corvette vs K20 Insight. You will notice, when the Vette gets a good launch it doesn't lose to the insight...

  • @kmk408ci okay well did you not notice the insight beat them all off the line and the insight was spinning 1st and 2nd?? sheesh get over yourself.

  • @Marshmallowrex I feel ya man. Not everybody is the same though. Maybe you need to move to get some good races. People here run any and everything. Light to heavy, 4yls to v8s. Nice dyno numbers by the way.

  • @Marshmallowrex Whats up with your hatred of V8s and domestics?

    Anything has potential to be fast in all honesty. How can you say somethign sucks that

    odds are you never have owned?

  • I don't understand why people get so mad about these videos. Anyone can search and find whatever they want beating whatever they want to see lose. If you want cheap speed get a honda mod and gut the interior. But past a certain age thats not something ideal to pick up a girl in to go on a date. Stock for stock we already know what was faster anyway...and what car the ladies rather ride in.

    Anything can be fast though. Period. Money makes it happen.

  • @Marshmallowrex your comment just goes to show how uneducated you are - well done.

  • @kageryu311 still depends on the heads/cam combination. this one did not accelerate like a LOW 11 sec car - not to mention the low 11 H/C C5 vettes that run low 11´s are planted on sticky dragstrips with sticky drag radials which are in most cases not even street approved. so this was more of a high 12 sec C5 vette (street condition) even if it had an aggressive H/C combination.

  • Oooo, Insight is so beautiful in white!

    Gotta love that power to weight ratio as well. It's almost like a Lotus Elise now! :D

  • all 3 are slow.

    case closed.

  • @3O2MuStAnG Did you just say that a Heads/Cam C5 Corvette is slow? Heads/Cam C5s do mid to low 11s with drag radials, I wouldn't call that slow.

  • If I was in the gto, i'd be like fml i just lost to a hybrid haha (i know its k20)

  • That is awesome! I am a Mustang guy and even I think its great. A bad ass sleeper!

  • There is actually a2.2L ford focus ecotec inside the insight. i seen the build. its American powered not the K20 series.

  • kseries are fast . .

  • Yep... piece of shit honda, which is why it smoked the cars made in America... People need to think about what just happened in this video before they wanna bash on imports.

  • What on earth was done to that Insight? That is hillarious. Nice post

  • Oh wow, Im gonna buy me an Honda insight now.

  • rofl

    

  • never underestimate an all naturally aspirated honda 4 cylinder motor

  • That's not a sleeper that shit was hibernating.

  • fuck thats an ugly ass car

  • Makes me wanna buy an Insight, and pull up next to some Vette, revv, take off, look in my mirror and see the look on his face.

  • wtf

    

  • what is up with this Insight?

  • Great. Now all the import fanboys are going to run out and get an Insight and try to race. And then sheer hilarity will ensue when they forget that this Insight was properly built for the task while their car is still powered by a lawn mower.

  • My jaw fucking dropped!

  • a fucking insight?

  • Damn I need to sell my hatch shell and put my swap in an Insight!! Shit scoots!

  • nice! i want to do that with my Insight

  • daymmm...i wonder what it runs in the 1/4, low 12's?

  • It's funny how some people are quick to conclusions when they see V8's get beaten by 4cyl cars, especially Hondas, and say "oh it has a fully built motor and blah blah." It only takes a stock short-block and a good flowing head to make good power on a NA K20.

    And fast is fast, can't argue with that.

  • @ThatDumpedAssWhiteLS

    Yep but I'd rather hear a V8. But fast is fast.

  • @ThatDumpedAssWhiteLS dont forget about the swap in a smaller car.same thing would happen if i threw in that corvette motor in a rx-7.has to go mod for mod in my eyes.

  • @ThatDumpedAssWhiteLS I can argue that the faster that corvette goes the more of a advantage it has and the top end speed of that corvette is way higher than any rice burners.

  • @ghettopettingzoo

    False, Check out top secret, they have V-12 Supra's, Skylines, and Silvias that all have over 800HP and do 200MPH+. Don't get it twisted and think all imports is shit sir cause you can get a rude awakening real quick. I'm into exotics but there are mad imports out there that can run quarter miles and hit a corner. I've seen enough of them in person to become a believer so you can think what you want.

  • @ghettopettingzoo But this isn't a video of a top speed race, now is it? Stop bringing outside shit where it doesn't belong. In this video, the "rice burner" just burned some American rice. /End of story.

  • cars are quick vette did pretty good tho ;]

  • LMAO!!!!!!

  • lol what the fuck just happened?

    p.s. that was a rhetorical question. import fanboys need not reply.

  • That honda  is moving

  • 何このinsightΣ(゚д゚;)

  • o wow very impressive sleeper

  • LOL! Wow, nice swap bro:)

  • Gto= stock

    Vette=stock

    insight=k swap fully built, nitrous.

    What would u expect when the owner owns a speed shop.

  • @himynameisbryan06 fully built my ass...completely stock bottom end hahahahahahahahaha

  • Damn That built K swap honda insight no fuckin joke

  • Daves insight makes that vette look like a joke. Lol. SVP/DNR is no joke. All motor northern Cali Kings!

  • nice insight first tyme i see one run

  • Comment removed

  • it's all driver!  *rolls eyes* lol

  • WHAT THE FUCK? HAHAHA

  • NICE!!!

  • @Marshmallowrex ? Lol not a fan of imports. <3 those big LS motors. Jut didn't see the little insight coming out of nowhere.

  • Lost to a hybrid LMAO!!! k20 ftw

  • LMFAO now the dudes in the corvette and the gto have to say they lost to an insight. THATS FUCKIN HILARIOUS

  • WOW. Best fucking sleeper ever.

  • who would've thought to take an Insight? MAD PROPS, YO. lolol

  • i want more

  • My jaw dropped.

  • whoa for the insight! :o

  • that niggaa daveee

  • only in a dream a swap like that could be thought of

  • damn i've never seen an insight street b4 XD that thing is quick.

  • lmao, wtf

  • here's how i see it.

    that honda was built, upgraded, and designed to be raced like that by the owner. it has had a ton of work done to it to make it that fast. the vette and the gto looked to still be mostly stock, and probably were. I am a huge American V8 guy, but fast is fast and you cant argue with that.

  • @internalcombushtun

    I totally know what you're saying. I feel you on that but you gotta give credit to the Insight. You can make any car fast with the money.

  • @CJAEY that is exactly right. fast is fast, and when its proven, no matter how much you hate the car that is fast, you really cant argue it. fast is fast. its that simple.

  • @internalcombushtun

    You sir are correct.

    

  • How the hell did that happen?

  • @AppAddictReviews the insight was built

    

  • How embarrassing would this be? Got out ran by a Hybrid 4 banger, if i was the Vette and GTO drive i would go home and park it. Honda's be getting it done and i just love it when you outrun that LSX and they always got an excuse, "i spun"," your car is a little Jap tin can", yea its light but i got less than half the motor of you i always say, or"my nitrous didnt work", and i always say "you need 6 liters and a 100 shot to out run my little Honda?", and they get mad as hell.

  • that a good ass driver right there

  • did not see that coming. Thought it was a joke lol

  • wow hahahahahaha

  • Also is that 1320's DC2 in the background? Did it run? Ive always viewed it as a show car but he claims he gets 12's on the 1/4...

  • Now that is the true definition of a sleeper LOL

  • LHT money

    

  • uhhh ga head insight nice sleeper

  • Lol......insight that's a first, also very creative, and a great way to throw away your money.

  • @c1110670 lol @ throwing away money? i put probably 7k including buying the insight. one of the perks of owning a shop. the owner of the vette and the GTO threw more money away if u put it that way. lol
