You may be right. These cars were made to be pushed. And I'm not affraid to push. Alot of people in the corvette club I'm in have brand new Zo6's and they drive them like a school bus. What is that all about. For instance last night we had a friday night street meet at one of the local micro brewery's to celebrate October fest. All the beer you can drink in two hours. One of the guy's brings his 2008 or 2009? limited addition ZO6. He tells my buddy he paid $86,000 for it. And this guy pulls out a silk hankerchief to open his door with. Now at this point we are tying not to laugh. So he starts his car up and my freind says to him I want to see you light those tires up. And this guy turns to him and says "Oh no! I never drive my car like that" And joey says What are you? A f_____g p___y? And the guy gives him a dirty look and slowly drives off. I don't understand people like that. They don't deserve a vette.
