I can imagine, i never have driven a corvette (no one my age owns one that i am friends with) suprisingly but a friend who is all into imports and has quite a sick nissan got a chance to drive his bosses Z06 for a few hours.

I remember him telling me how he drove my car and loved it, but that the Z06 was hands down better then sex, and he really isnt even that much of a car guy lol

Needless to say i really want to drive one for myself lol

If only 'real drivers' bought sports cars, then there wouldn't be any made. Most people who buy expensive sports cars are NOT drivers, they're doctors or lawyers who keep the car under a cover all year and never drive it.

If you want to show off on a public road in a ZR1, DRIVING IN TRAFFIC, why not keep the TC on for the extra insurance? That's why it has the 'competition' setting so you can still showboat but it won't let you lose it like this guy did.

stupid move on the driver's part, but i dont think there are alot of people in here (myself included) who have ever broke traction at that speed, so really we dont know what we would do. **** happens
