Default ZR1 YouTube Vlogger...the only 1!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I know that since Chuck and Mike both sold their ZR1's there has been no YouTube vloggers for C7 ZR1s. I'm not speaking of PDR videos or shops doing a build and such, but an actual vlogger. I actually have a YouTube channel that I vlog on but now since the ZR1 will be coming to the channel...I will be the sole YT vlogger. I know what direction I want to take my channel but I also would like to solicit information from you guys on what you would like to see on a channel that is representing this car. I'm planning on vlogging the drop off of the car at the shop I'm getting xpel at as well as filming some of the xpel process. There will also be how to's as well. It will not be an exclusive ZR1 channel but 85 - 90% will be. Looking for some ideas. Thanks!

Please like and subscribe to the channel so I can grow this into something great with your help!

Less hanging around with cameras facing each other talking about nothing and some racing in mexico, track events, in car impressions from yourself and guests. Real world people reactions, those are priceless. Can’t wait for you to get your car.

Good points! Definitely will be less of the chatty stuff..can't promise there will never be vlogs like that.

Good luck man and congrats! I've had this channel for over a year now..but will now have solid car content of my own instead of doing videos of car shows and stuff.

i watch youtube plenty. my opinion as one of how many but here you go.

- the channels that intrigue me are mostly vehicle related.

- the vloggers that i subscribe to have personality and are not annoying, point out the good, the bad, and the ugly with what you endure with the car, life etc.. we WANT to know you (and your friends/family/life) getting that balanced vs car content is the biggest key (look at street outlaws for example - you know the characters we all have favorites and others we dislike but it is ever evolving. keep them wanting to come back for more.

- 10-12 minutes max.

- can't be afraid to take chances. if you bought the car because it is the most important thing in your world you will fail.

- DDE (daily driven exotics) is my number 1 go to for content. Streetspeed used to be, but now i find myself FF to the interesting parts whereas DDE i'll watch a full 25 minute video without hesitation..

more power to you. wish you the best of luck. i will subscribe etc. i for one hope the channel is excellent for everyone including you as if you enjoy what you do it shows in the finished product.

PS. I can't imagine how much behind the scenes production and thought goes into a channel like DDE.. when you watch one of his videos vs streetspeed's it's like a podcast vs a tv talk show.. amazing (risky and dangerous but entertaining).

How ‘bout an articulate, focused comparison of the BAW aero pkg vs the SAW aero pkg (all else being equal) on the race track? Is that asking too much?
