Record-breaking Corvette destroys the eighth mile under 4 seconds

Record-breaking Corvette destroys the eighth mile under 4 seconds

Can this Corvette pull an eighth mile in 3.97 seconds? With drag radials, it just did.

Watch this C6 Corvette with a huge blower annihilate the eighth mile at Memphis International Raceway, crossing the line at 194.38mph. Driven by Jason Michalak of Bad9er Racing, it’s only the second time anyone’s broken into three-second territory in the drag radial class. In practice, it’s gone even faster.

The car was running on alcohol with a screw blown BAE Hemi and 315-width radial tires. What a beast. We’re sure we will see this car shatter more records in time.
