Bills04 46 Posted November 3, 2021 A base C7 Corvette Stingray will do 181MPH. With the Z51 package, 184MPH. A Z06 has another 200HP, and a ZR1 has another 300HP. So - even faster. I think there is a Youtube video with Jay Leno hitting 200+MPH in a ZR1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An adult is responsible for their actions, regardless. So unless somebody forced him to drink all that, he's solely responsible.

Let’s blame everyone else for his actions. He made a really stupid mistake ( hope I didn’t break any rules with that word). Plenty of others ways he could have gotten home. It was is choice to drink and drive, and it was his foot pushing down on that gas pedal, now it will be his arse sitting in jail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
