A weekend freeway cruise turns tense fast when a Hennessey-tuned C7 Corvette Stingray, pushing roughly 600 horsepower through an ECS supercharger, spots a patrol car mid-pull at triple-digit speed. The comment section has turned into a swap meet of near-miss stories from viewers who’ve had their own close calls at similar speeds. Watch to see how close this particular encounter came to going a very different way.
A concours-quality restoration isn’t measured in weekends — it’s measured in years, with top shops logging 4,000-plus labor hours per car at $135-plus per hour. The difference between a nice classic and a Pebble Beach contender comes down to details most people would never notice: bolt heads, stitching patterns, and paint sheens matched to factory records decades old.
A Texas tuning shop put a bone-stock 2017 Camaro ZL1 and its brand-new 10-speed automatic through a real 0-180 mph pull, and the data logger caught it still upshifting at the top end. Viewers argued over everything from the fuel gauge to a short-shifted launch. Hennessey teased something far more extreme was coming next. Watch the full run to see it.
