Chev are doing a bit of a country tour taking records with it. 5 different tracks, and what amazes me more, is 5 different drivers.
Usually when Porsche do these things they have Lars Kern attempt, he knows the car(s) inside/out.

If you had Supercar money, these things would surely be on the list.

and what is hilarious in all of this... is that it has the same top speed of an F1 car (allegedly and that was back in 2016 for the F1... they seem slower these days**from both camps)... further checking... 229mph by Albon in '24 vs 233 by a Corvette... LOL!!!!!

under half the price of a McLaren.... under 1/3 the price of a Lambo...

IF the rich and famous can forget about it being a GM how many would it be able to draw in?
