600-horsepower Corvettes hit the road at 160mph

600-horsepower Corvettes hit the road at 160mph

March 15, 2016

There was once an old Corvette ad, for the C4 Corvette, that read: “Life begins at 150.” Back then, advertising such lofty speeds for your revolutionary new sports car was deemed uncouth.

Fortunately, after 30 or so years of progress, we can now brag in this epic video: “life begins at 160mph.”

The guys at 1320video head over to Qatar, where they know a thing or two about speed and wide open highways. It’s a pair of C6 Corvette Z06s all pushing over 600 horsepower, smoking each other from a roll. A couple of stock C7 Corvettes get in the game here, and you know at that level the only mod necessary is the driver mod.

We leave it to the following YouTube comment on this video, that seems to sum it all up: “Doesn’t matter where you’re from, or what race (dig or roll 😉 religion or color your skin is that was bad ass pedal to the metal! These guys are fellow car racing brothers with great taste in fast cars!”
