Even wondered how our automotive feelings and emotions would be if we could experience them in a pure form, devoid of any misconception or worries? The toddler in the clip below provides a pretty good answer to that question, one that has made our day.
The little one simply enjoys boost. Nothing less, nothing more. Well strapped to his a generously-sized child seat, the toddler giggles and jumps for joy as the car covers him in forced induction amusement.
Had he been an adult, there would have been about a million thoughts that could’ve diluted the experience. First of all, this is a Pontiac GTO. There are a lot of guys out there who are not fond of GM’s way of bringing back the GTO as a rebadged Holden. Then there’s the way in which the engine was modded
Sure, this Pontiac is definitely a member of the “built, not bought” society, but many have an issue with a muscle car that runs a turbo setup instead of turning to a blower. It’s worth mentioning that, when it comes to impressing toddlers, the turbocharger probably wins the battle.
We’ve seen this particular GTO before and it’s got quite some lag below 4,000 rpm. Well, the sudden transition definitely plays an important role in bringing the kid in such a good mood.
Has this been done on a closed course? Is there enough fuel left in the tank to get back home? These are all questions the toddler may ask later on in his life. We’re all too glad he is just riding the torque wave for now.
In his quest to bring you the most impressive automotive creations, Andrei relies on learning as a superpower. There's quite a bit of room in the garage that is this aficionado's heart, so factory-condition classics and widebody contraptions with turbos poking through the hood can peacefully coexist.
