Blog #1, Corvette ZR1

Today, I read in my Road and Track magazine, about how Rick Wagoner, chairman and CEO posed a question to GM. He questioned them that if it only took $59,995 to make the original Corvette Z06; What they could make with $100,000. They answered quickly with the Corvette ZR1. The ZR1 totally remade the Corvette. The GM team put in a 600 plus horsepower V8 engine, along with a 6.2 liter supercharger, which let the Z06 unleash over 220-MPH in a straight line. The Corvette Z06, was GM's most powerful car they have ever built, and has paved a path for others to follow.
