A surprise 2027 Corvette to match the ZR1X lands in Mike's garage
Ten hours after the delivery video went up, it had passed 30,000 views, while viewers of the earlier 'Harsh Truth' video were busy debating chrome wheels and giveaways.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
Taking Delivery of a Surprise New 2027 Corvette!!! *Matches my ZR1X!*
Ten hours old and already past 30,000 views, "Taking Delivery of a Surprise New 2027 Corvette!!! *Matches my ZR1X!*" is the video carrying Street Speed 717 right now. Mike, whose channel introduces him simply as a guy who makes car videos and puts them on the internet, took delivery of a new Corvette finished to match his ZR1X. That is the same car that ran eights at a drag event in a video from a couple of weeks ago.
It was one of only two uploads. The other, "The Harsh Truth is... I Made a Huge Financial Mistake Buying this car.," came out on September 30 and is the week's most watched new video. Its comment section went two ways at once. Many viewers are fixated on a blue C6 ZR1 and plead with him to keep its stock chrome wheels, though a few would rather try SVJ-style five-spokes. Others took up the giveaways that run through his descriptions. They talk about missing the old build videos and shop visits, about entering and never winning, and about gas prices leaving less room for extras.
The channel's daily views are running at about five times their usual pace, a lift that arrived with the new Corvette. Across the full week, though, among car channels of a similar size, Street Speed 717 drew the fewest new views. Junkyard Digs, BoostedBoiKyle and ThatDudeinBlue had busy weeks, and Clearview Driving was far ahead of everyone in the group.
