A lot of people point their fingers at V8s and high-performance sports cars and say they’re destroying the environment. I think Mother Nature just exacted a little revenge. Eight of America’s sports cars at the National Corvette Museum plunged into a 40-feet wide sinkhole. Luckily, nobody was injured. I’m sure ‘Vette fans will feel a […] More »

Chevrolet’s 2015 Corvette Z06 is a very important vehicle for the company. It needs to be one helluva follow-up to the bow tie gang’s Stingray, the North American Car of the Year.

The ‘Vette is trapping a tick under 150mph and finishing the quarter in nine seconds. It hooks up like no ones business. More impressive is […] More »

Everyone likes the ZR1 basically. It’s the fastest Corvette around with the looks to match it’s ridiculous speed. That said… It could be faster. I mean, if you have that incredibly stout LS9, why not throw some nitrous into the mix? The results speak for themselves. You’ll just have to turn up the volume to hear it […] More »

Here’s a cool video comparing the C6 Z06 against the C6 ZR1 at Chuckwalla Valley Raceway from the guys at Car and Driver magazine. While I wished for more tail-out action and hardcore driving, if you can sit through the whole video it’s a nice highlight of the two line-topping C6 Vettes…and at the end […] More »
