    Since its 1953 debut at New York’s Waldorf-Astoria hotel, the Corvette was known as America’s sports car. In 2019, the mid-engine C8 Corvette staked a claim on supercar territory. For 2025, the 1,064-horsepower ZR1 began trouncing European competition, backed by a thundering Detroit V-8 soundtrack. Still not enough. Chevrolet bills the 2026 ZR1X as “America’s Hypercar,” with no hyperbole required.

    La nuova Corvette ZR1 può già essere definita l'auto a trazione posteriore più veloce al mondo: un mostro da pista che frantuma record, raggiungendo i 100 km/h da fermo in 2,3 secondi e una velocità massima di massima di 375 km/h che sembra un'illusione generata dall'intelligenza artificiale. La domanda che sorge spontanea è: come farà Chevrolet, o qualsiasi casa automobilistica, a superare tutto questo?

    O Corvette ZR1 2025 pode já ser o carro com tração traseira mais rápido a tocar o solo em nosso planeta: Um monstro de pista que bate recordes e atinge 60 milhas por hora em 2,2 segundos e cuja velocidade máxima de 233 mph parece uma alucinação de IA.

    Bild von: Chevrolet Die 2025er Corvette ZR1 ist ja womöglich schon das schnellste Auto mit Hinterradantrieb, das je auf unserem Planeten gelandet ist: Ein Track-Monster, das in brutalen 2,3 Sekunden von 0-100 km/h beschleunigt und dessen 375 km/h Höchstgeschwindigkeit fast wie eine KI-Halluzination anmuten. Im Mai lädt man mich auf ein paar Runden mit der ZR1 auf den texanischen Circuit of the Americas.

    Photo by: Chevrolet Corvette engineers first uttered the phrase "King of the Hill" internally in the mid-1980s. Their majesty was a 1990 ZR1—that’s a 32-valve, 375-horsepower V-8 designed by the GM-owned Lotus Division and built in Oklahoma by Mercury Marine. It first drew Ferrari comparisons to a sports car that had pissed away much of the ‘70s and ‘80s, mired in bureaucratic muck and rattletrap complacency.

So when @OhioStateFB played Michigan, why didn't Ryan Day call a pass on every single down? @rosebowlgame

Give @nicksaban and @KalenDeBoer a pair of shovels, but it'll take a full off-season to clear the shit pile @AlabamaFTBL left on the @ReliaQuestBowl field today. What a gutty performance from @UMichFootball, even with all their best players missing.

Pure coaching malpractice by Dan Campbell on the onside kick call. Inexcusable. Indefensible. He just refuses to understand or even acknowledge risk and reward in critical situations. @Lions @NFL
