[gmdriverer]

[KENS460]

Very nice .

[ITRIEDEL]

i dont understand...why would u race 69 camaros with more torque to the wheels than nuts and bolts on your engine combined, on a wet road?

[racemup]

Was that street wet???

[yamaharules163]

[69chevelless3964spd]

Same cars!

[455pontiacfirebird]

[traglidite]

it funny to watch your video this is just off 24th ave in langly bc i live just down the street and this is where i tune my v8 s10. i wasted alot of tires on that strip. local boys!

[TheP51man]

Very nice Dave! I've been watching a couple of your videos and I think you missed your calling, you should have been a movie producer! You definitely have the experience now.

[surf403]

PRETTY COOL DAVE!!

[70short]

REDS  hot quit hating

[blaze3258]

[540merlin]

[SR71Fan]

[DJEFlizZ215]

funny they both the same....split videos



[thewhistler]

Did the red one win?

[540merlin]

@thewhistler You decide.

[MsJennyGlass]

same car... nice car but same car...

[540merlin]

@MsJennyGlass similar. One was 5 minutes older than the other.

[crazywin99669]

@540merlin consecutive # cars?

[IceTTom]

@540merlin

haha

[MrZillaman1]

why is there a line in the mittle of the screen? is this two video you put together??  The camaro is nice:}

[540merlin]

@MrZillaman1 What line?

[slowscort]

Maybe its because i am drunk but looks like the same car and the same guy driving but that wouldn't be possible maybe your brothers and twins lol

[540merlin]

@slowscort Naw, it's because you're drunk.

[burninbean]

Why don't you wait for it to actually rain next time !! Maybe the road will be even MORE wet !!

[540merlin]

@burninbean It's Vancouver. It rains for months without stopping during the winter, but I still gotta make videos!

[sporttrac1989]

dude this is fake you can see the line in the middle its the same dude same lisences plates the both dudes get in the car the same and look the same cant trick me

[84Bronco351]

@sporttrac1989 WOW!!! I NEVER KNEW THAT!! Seriously,you think no one knows? Get a life,troll

[sporttrac1989]

@84Bronco351 ur a fag stick with ur 351 shitty ford get a chevy

[MrMesaDude]

Must be some lame-ass 540's - trying to drive em @ even 1/8 throttle on a wet street would be a exercise in futility if they were making some power, oh wait, their Merlin based. - Jus kidd'in. If they has a Briggs & Straton 5hp, I'd still love your Camaro!

[540merlin]

@MrMesaDude Yup. They are totally lame. Thanks for coming by.

[Npena100]

Who wants to bet the red one is going to win?

[540merlin]

@Npena100 Looked like a tie to me.

[Npena100]

@540merlin Truee....

[mastercueartist]

lol nevermind i just seen a post already explaining it...

[mastercueartist]

im kinda curious...why were both of the license plates the exact same? kinda makes me think it was faked

[W31350]

@mastercueartist they are the same cars. it was an edited video...

[mastercueartist]

@W31350 lol i know...i posted it with sarcasm

[irishmadman409]

pass everything on the road except a gas station lol

[540merlin]

@irishmadman409 Why would you want to pass a gas station? How would you fill the gas tank if you didn't stop at each one?

[irishmadman409]

@540merlin not the [point just saying its faster then most on the road except a gas station because you have to stop to refuel shesh

[antipeacemilitias]

@irishmadman409 tree hugger

[irishmadman409]

@antipeacemilitias buahahah wtf obviously you dont know cars if you didnt get what i meant by my statement so how about you just keep your retarded ass comments to yourself thank you

[antipeacemilitias]

@irishmadman409 hummm let me try this again...

you said to the guy "pass everything on the road except a gas station" and i replayed "tree hugger" so the fact still remains you are a tree hugger when your concerned about fuel consumption in a high powered car. and where in my tree hugger statement was any notion about stupidity on my behalf? when it's you talking about gas stations in a merlin powered camaro clip anyways have a good day and go hug a tree or something if your that emotional

[irishmadman409]

@antipeacemilitias buahah you my friend are a dumb ass have a good day lmao

[540merlin]

@irishmadman409 Just ignore Antipeacemilitias - he's left "odd" comments on a few of my vids. I knew exactly what you meant by your first comment. :)

[irishmadman409]

@540merlin for sure and beautiful american muscle car

[Browning10001000]

ya my money is on the red one lol

[540merlin]

@Browning10001000 Everyone seems to pick red...

[390merc65]

my money is on the red one

[540merlin]

@390merc65 I'll take that bet.

[brad8taylor]

that was a very cool video nice job editing

[540merlin]

@brad8taylor Thanks. Wish it wasn't raining.

[Bonk187Productions]

lmfao mirrored image

[540merlin]

@Bonk187Productions It's not mirrored, it's a split screen.

[greenjeens]

are you twins?

[540merlin]

@greenjeens Identical twins.

[ArTiiCuLaTe]

Lmao. Idk if its me but you guys have the sam clothes,car and licence plates haha

[540merlin]

@ArTiiCuLaTe Could happen.

[jgizzy]

That's so weird, not only are your cars almost identical in looks and performance, but you two even look and dress the same. Cocaine is a hell of a drug

[540merlin]

@jgizzy We are very close.

[grizzleybearz282004]

great camaros before i became a family man and when and got my 4x4 suv 1999 dodge durango i had two camaros since i was 17 a 1989 x28 puching alittle under 300hp then i had a 1994 z28 that was puching around 400hp give or take and every one knows fast camaros and wet roads never mix

[540merlin]

[grizzleybearz282004]

@540merlin YES BUT ONLY BUT OF MY 1994 Z28 WHEN I WAS MAKE A VIDEO TO SELL IT ON EBAY BUT IT IS POSTED ON MY YOUTUBE PAGE IF YOU WANT TO SEE IT

[540merlin]

[grizzleybearz282004]

@540merlin LOL YA RIGHT THATS LIFE BUT I PLAN LATER ON OF GETTING A NEW TOY AND IV WANTED ONE OF THSES FOR A LONG TIME SO THATS MY GOAL CHEVELLE ANY WERE FROM 1968 TO 1970 WOULD DO PLUS IT WILL BE ALOT EZER TO WORK ON LOL

[clabby93]

WOAH! WHERE DID YOU FIND ANOTHER 1000HP CAMARO TO RACE???

[540merlin]

@clabby93 Beside me. its the only way you can race.

[LeeGouldbourn]

haha i saw what u did there;]

[540merlin]

@LeeGouldbourn Were you the guy that rode by on his bike while I was filming?

[LeeGouldbourn]

@540merlin no i meant the masking

[540merlin]

@LeeGouldbourn I knew what you meant. I was trying to be funny. I'll stick with burnout videos...

[MrTroll652]

nice car but terrible acting

[540merlin]

@MrTroll652 Aint it the truth!

[mentalm12]

thats gotta be an awsome feeling knowin u cant be touched so u must find ways to race urself hahaha :D

[540merlin]

@mentalm12 There is at least one other car out there that'll put up a fight.

[undeadkillers]

Nice video splicing! Almost seemed real except one side was darker

[540merlin]

@undeadkillers The sun moved.

[markymark420283]

Are all of you fucking retarded this is the same car in two seperate videos spliced together.

[540merlin]

@markymark420283 Somebody is.

[HummerRecovery]

I think the Red Camaro won! lol nice video as always!!

[540merlin]

@HummerRecovery Thanks.

[540merlin]

@GeneralLSD They are very evenly matched cars.

[dutchboy25al]

New auto sport? Drag racing in the rain? I like it! :)

[540merlin]

@dutchboy25al Drag racing in Vancouver!

[540merlin]

@GeneralLSD But it was close.

[adokenk3nnbasil]

AMERICAN Muscle

Kickin' Ass Since Day 1.

[wc3john]

I like the video editing Dave, the cars on the far street ahead kinda gave it away as well as the license plates... Might catch some of the less savvy people.

[540merlin]

@wc3john It's not supposed to fool anyone - I'm just playing around with my editing abilities.

[540merlin]

@PITBULL35383 Ya, that's my SS bigblock clone.

[MrMustangFan17]

The guy on the left looked funny : P

[540merlin]

@MrMustangFan17 They both look funny.

[metsu962]

Ah the sound of two 540s racing, what a nice tune. Haha, two Dave's smack talk the same

[540merlin]

@metsu962 I was pretty happy with how the car sound tracks merged together. Can't wait to re-film it in the dry.

[internationalcxt01]

that was an awsome video i think the red camaro won lol check out my 70 chevelle vids i have on here lol

[540merlin]

@internationalcxt01 Cool vids you have. Get some posi for sure!

[internationalcxt01]

@540merlin ya im saving up for one im not sure whether to put a 12 bolt posi in it like i want too or put a posi in the 10 bolt thats in it know probably just do that but im only 16 so i need money to buy some other parts and put a 12 bolt in it after high skool

[540merlin]

@internationalcxt01 That's a pretty nice car for a 16 year old. Good on ya.

[internationalcxt01]

@540merlin thanks ya its my baby lol i worked all summer and saved up all my money and bought half of it and my parents bought the other half its a very fun car to drive

[540merlin]

@internationalcxt01 Nice parents!

[CAMARO30082]

same car both lanes. he used split screen technology. just an old movie trick. (:>)

[540merlin]

@CAMARO30082 Shhh! You're spoiling my fun!

[CAMARO30082]

@540merlin oh ok. mum is the word. (:>)

[540merlin]

@CAMARO30082 That's better. Thanks.

[SPEEDMARSHALL]

nice red camaros !

[540merlin]

@SPEEDMARSHALL Thanks - but which of the two is nicer?

[SPEEDMARSHALL]

@540merlin lol, the left one ...

[tmt3800]

Good one.

[Q11969]

I'm sure it will be very cool! I can't wait!

[540merlin]

@Q11969 Me either, but we will both have to.

[Q11969]

Dave. very cool! but whats up with the rain and no burnout? lol

[540merlin]

@Q11969 It's Vancouver, it rains all effing winter around here. And like you, I was anxious to do this video so I didn't wait for a dry weekend to film. However, When I get a dry weekend, I will re-do this video including everything else I learned while making it. Keep watching.

[kidddogbites]

i think the camaro won

[540merlin]

@kidddogbites It's hard to tell from the camera angle, but you've got at least a 50% chance of being right.

[transamfan81]

Hahaha. gettin very creative there Dave. nice one

[540merlin]

@transamfan81 Thanks.

[brian55lvr]

nice

[GerryK61]

Lmao Twins!

[540merlin]

@GerryK61 I always wanted a twin brother. And a couple of matching Camaros.

[JesseDanielHimself]

I wouldn't award you the Oscar for best visual effects, but for what it is, very well done. My only complaint is that you can clearly see one half of the screen is darker than the other; you should have adjust that when you were editing it.

Otherwise, can you reveal who won? My bet's on the left car, you can see it's ahead right at the end.

[540merlin]

@JesseDanielHimself I can adjust that? I'll look into it.

[JesseDanielHimself]

@540merlin Just adjust the contrast on both clips, it's a simple procedure, and it should be a feature of whatever program you're using. Just fiddle with the brightness and contrast until you find something that works.

But be warned, messing with colors needs to be done delicately. Bugger it up and you have some strange-looking footage. Otherwise, just experiment with it.

[540merlin]

@JesseDanielHimself I will do that when I re-do this video on dry asphalt.

[Bigblockf150]

Great stuff, and seeing you do 500 foot burnouts on dry pavement, I can only imagine how stupid it can be driving that car in the rain.

[540merlin]

@Bigblockf150 In the rain, traction is a bit of an issue.

[tylervangaalen]

Good editing lol, but it's still funny to see the cars in the background disappear haha.

[540merlin]

@tylervangaalen You're not supposed to be looking over there!

[VetteAholicZ06]

My moneys on Dave! lol

[540merlin]

@VetteAholicZ06 You win.

[xdarkmanx]

who won? ; )

[rcfirebird69]

@xdarkmanx itz both him itz just edited :) haha hella tight good job dude :)

[540merlin]

@xdarkmanx The Camaro. It was close though - coulda gone either way.

[Ls3guy]

cool

[willpeterson]

haha

[400chevlc]

Looks like someone is enjoying their new editing software. LOL

[540merlin]

@400chevlc The software is not new - I just figured out a way to do this, and I'm definately enjoying it!

[mikecaddy]

lol nice!

[KHS212]

frig man ur camaro is some snoty soundin! what are ya runnin for pipes flow master 40's cause it kinda sounds like my dads 72 super cheyenne

[540merlin]

@KHS212 I'd say its the 700 lift solid roller cam, the 2" headers, the 3" exhaust and the Flowmasters that all add up to the sound you hear here. I think the dual car sound track probably helps too.
