    That was honestly the best outcome possible for going 215. Looked like the car only rolled once.

    Sincerely my respects! It is incredible what you have achieved with the Corvette and despite that accident, I am quite glad that the damage was only superficial, in addition to leaving it unscathed
    I really and seriously hope for the true return of the Corvette since what you achieved was practically historic, surpassing the fastest viper in the world even surpassing The fastest Corvette in the world recorded with 272 mhp!
    Hopefully one day sooner or later you can come back, we really miss the Corvette and the amazing things you have been accomplishing over time! I send you a big hug from Mexico And despite everything, we maintain hope for your triumphant return with the Corvette and achieving better marks, which you can easily achieve!

    Any crash over 150 mph that you walk away from is a good crash..🙃

    It looked like he hit the painted line then the tire broke loose and that was it.

    I probably should put a roll cage in my 1500 hp corvette! I'm so glad he is okay!

    Impressive to see the safety systems do their thing, glad you were ok. What event was this? It looks like a longer run than others I'm aware of.

    Glad your ok. Racing over 150 mph in itself is dangerous, but you only live life to its potential over 150

    Awesome car, and absolutely the best outcome for the speed you were doing. But how did you fix the roof? Were the pillars not damaged?

  • @superiorautomotive143
    @superiorautomotive143 2 місяці тому

    That car needs beadlocks and a higher rated speed of tire maybe . Likely spun the tire on the rim and that caused the bead to rip.

    Just my opinion when you got on that white line left rear broke traction with rough section of track, no traction control on . That's what turned you. I ride motorcycles those lines will dump you. Glad you are ok. Stay away from all painted surfaces and hwy decals.

    This is also an example of why learning car control at a track with turns is important! I cringed so hard when I saw that throttle snap closed instantly mid-slide, glad you're ok and hope you learned about more than safety equipment!

    It seemed to have gained ✈️ flight... Yet it has no 💸 wings. 🤔 Hmm 🧐 Perhaps it needed spoilers to push it down 👇.

    I don't. I don't like a crash video, good or otherwise. I do not like them with Corvettes or Chevettes, boosted or not. I have had every Ford I've ever owned end up on it's roof, and it's one of the things I like about the Chevrolet's I've owned: they all keep the rubber side down. Some part of me feels like a 185 MPH race-ready consumer-grade and priced to match sports car that keeps its factory warranty even when raced is such a good thing that getting that extra MPH is perhaps an afront to the automotive gods of speed. I'm not sure what this exercise in fast was about. Surely you weren't racing anybody, the car was solo. Surely it isn't just an exercise in engineering: of course you can go faster than stock "Speed is just a matter of money. How fast do you want to go?" If it was to test driver control, well, I ain't sayin' nuthin'. I had a C7 GM loaned me for a hot minute up to 155+, and while not frightening in any way, it seemed like more than enough speed for a daily commute to work. The amount of tech, tuning, power, and critical variable consideration is dramatically higher to go from 150 MPH to 180 MPH. To go from 180 MPH to 215 MPH strikes me as being orders of magnitude higher. I'm still straight jacketed in my car and can't get it any higher than 50 MPH in my short driveway. I'm good with the stock 180+ MPH capability of my C6 daily driver. Stuff comes up to you pretty fast at those speeds, and I don't like to miss my freeway exit. Plus, I'd hate for my Chevy to start pretending it's a Ford and go belly up at the slightest provocation.
