Not a Corvette but I thought this was one of the best high speed video's I've watched. I think I'll watch it again.

I was thinking the same thing. It is very possible he taped over the sequence while driving the car at 120...with the real test drive being done by a professional driver...otherwise Bugati took a big risk by putting that car in the hands of a journalist

What is truly amazing is someone built a car and it went as fast as they said it would go

That was amazing! I'd sure like to try that.

Here's another one, not nearly as good I don't think but it is of some Alberta guys having fun with their exotics. Seems the police are concerned enough about their play that they've sent the link out asking for input from anyone who recognizes the road they're running on.

Just so you know, that wasn't an in car camera. I was in front the entire time w/ my 500mm zoom maxed out for those cockpit shots.
They just won't let me show that video. ya that's it!
That's a pretty intense vid
