Corvettes Shatter American Speed Records at Nürburgring
I was hoping to see Stielow as one of the drivers , but they probably don't let him do that now that he's a big wig...
General Motors Corvette line has been crowned the fastest car by an American manufacturer on Germany's world-famous Nürburgring racetrack.
Notably, the Chevrolet Corvette Z06, ZR1, and ZR1X achieved record lap times on the 12.9-mile Nordschleife circuit with three non-professional drivers behind the wheel.
Not to take anything away from the drivers that were responsible there, but we all know there’s more on the table with a professional driver at the wheel.
It’s a huge victory for GM given that these times were elapsed with non-professional drivers. Rumor has it that Ford is going back with their mustang GTD to attempt to dethrone GM. I wish them luck…
