C7 Corvette ZR1 Averages 173 MPH Over 118 Miles, Tailpipes Melt the Back of the Car in the Process

You can't put this on GM when an owner modifies the vehicle.

" “I changed every single thing on the car I could to prepare for this race." The ZR1 now makes about 30 percent more horsepower than stock, he says, thanks to a larger throttle body, ported heads, upgraded rockers, lifters, supercharger, and other alterations.

As to why the tail end wound up so roasted and toasted, well, it turns out there is no real exhaust system per se on the car; it has Kooks headers and AWE straight pipes, but no muffler."

If Canadians want to travel for fun to the US, by all means, go for it. BUT… Please don’t expect help or pity when/if you run into problems there. You’ve been warned for almost a year about what’s going on there.

Hard to be pissed when damage is self inflicted. Americans voted for it.

Venezuela is next on our hit list for places to invade, expect lots of young Americans to needlessly die.
