What Can I Expect
Bring on the C7! Drive a Corvette at your choice of professional race track and get the feels for this genuine, modern American supercar that is bigger and bolder than all the rest!
The Corvette was Chevrolet's answer to the plethora of European GT cars being produced by the likes of Jag and Aston. The first Corvette was produced as a one-off concept car for the New York Auto Show in 1953. Interest in the car (which was a convertible) led General Motors to go ahead into full production, which began later the same year.
Initially they sold pretty slowly, but the 'Vette, as it is still affectionately known, has certainly captured the hearts of American motorists. For your Corvette experience you'll be driving a 2016 seventh generation Corvette.
Following in the tyre-treads of the iconic 'Sting Ray' monikered Second Generation, any modern Corvette has a lot to live up to. And sure enough, this seventh generation model has done in style. The all-new body styling harks back to those days of large fenders and sleek fishlike curves. It still has that incredible low-sweeping bonnet that, quite frankly, makes you look uber cool in that futuristic, yet retro kind of way. We think you'll love driving this beauty.
And the Corvette you'll be driving doesn't just look pretty hip, it goes pretty fast too. With a hulk of a 6.2l, V8 engine and a hefty 460bhp going on, this American dream car is certainly ready to rock. As for the handling, well, this is a very big car, but you get a helping hand with a rather nifty automatic/paddle shift transmission.
Get your hands on this fabulous leading light from the Chevrolet stable and bask in the glory of driving a C7 Corvette on the track. Time to hit the gas, as our cousins across the pond would say, in your 'Vette.
