I just saw an interview with Richard Petty. He said he doesn’t see electric NASCAR vehicles within his lifetime. I hope I don’t see electric Corvettes in mine. The Tesla roadster was fun to drive but I still prefer to hear the sound of power. I would kill myself in that damn Z06. I will leave the high performance to wiz. |

Don't get me wrong. I like the Corvette, but all this is GM behind the times and some marketing hype. If they really wanted to be innovative they would roll out electro-magnetic valve trains or something.
Ford put in in the Mustang at half the price 5 yrs., ago and even in the 2.3 Ecoboost which was another half off the GT350 Mustang. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/flat-...ed-stephen-kim |
