This is why welfare doesn’t work in the real world. Taking all the hard earned cash from the rich and giving it to the poor is flushing the nations GDP down the toilet.
If you haven’t driven 600+ HP cars before, don’t! If the Corvette ZR1 didn’t have several self-governing features incorporated into it the average driver couldn’t handle it on the street. This guy should have sold it immediately without driving it. Darwin award.
That’ll buff out...
You’re quite right. That’s a lot of horsies for the average driver to handle. I’m guessing that most people that ~think~ they can... Can’t. Overconfidence and 600HP is an expensive combination.
I get it. Hell, I get in enough trouble with a mere 300 or so horses in my Mustang. I’ve already proven that I can’t be trusted with it. :-)
I hate insurance companies.
Thugs...
I would’ve sold it immediately. I already have 305 horses that are already paid for and that’s enough for me.
Yeah, that kind of power is no joke. I got used to it, but it took some near escapes and just shear dumb luck that I survived. Wound up being a Hell of a driver though, if not totally in disregard of all traffic laws. I did manage to out race a Ferrari Testarrosa in down town two-lane traffic, pole position style, at speeds pressing 110 mph, and hit a top speed of 220 mph on the autobahn.
