I was trying to think of what other racer stumped for Chevy, but can't come up with anything. Who is he succeeding?

That's a neat video, but I wonder what his opinion would be on the rest of the GM lineup. The guy has some skill, but he also seems to be a bit of an ***.

I think to a large degree, Top Gear has it right. Race car drivers should drive race cars, not voice their opinions. If you care how a car's limits compare to another's, race them. You can see Corvette in competition with other cars in all sorts of series. Whether JPM likes them or not, they do well.

Juan just has "some skill"? How many major races does he need to win to earn your respect? I found his cockiness and commentary very entertaining. I know all the C6R drivers (Johnny O'Connell the most) and they all share many attributes, but the one thing that really stands out is their high degree of self confidence. Give Juan a break.

Hammer wasn't referring to Juan as the successor. He was referring yo the new ZR1 as the successor to the C4 ZR-1.
