Srtdad10 on https://www.facebook.com/ The Corvette just made history. 🇺🇸🏁 The 2026 Corvette ZR1 is officially the fastest production car ever to complete Car and Driver’s Lightning Lap, setting a blistering 2:34.2 around Virginia International Raceway. Here are a few numbers that make this even crazier: 🔥 1,064 horsepower 🔥 Twin-turbo 5.5L flat-plane-crank V8 🔥 Rear-wheel drive only—no hybrid assistance 🔥 179 mph on VIR’s front straight 🔥 Faster than the McLaren Senna’s record What’s even more impressive is that Chevrolet didn’t need an electric motor or all-wheel drive to do it. The ZR1 proved that a gasoline-powered American sports car can still take the fight to some of the world’s most expensive exotics—and win. Whether you’re a Corvette fan or not, it’s hard not to respect what Chevy’s engineers accomplished with this car. Would you take the ZR1 over a Ferrari or McLaren if money wasn’t an issue? #CorvetteZR1 #Corvette #Chevrolet #Supercar #SRTDad
