Friday Night Lights: Corvettes dragging in the dark at Royal Purple Raceway

Friday Night Lights: Corvettes dragging in the dark at Royal Purple Raceway

April 15, 2016

Just another Friday night at Royal Purple Raceway in Baytown, Texas.

First up is this tuned C7 Corvette Stingray that runs a solid 11-second time. Then there’s a mean black C6 Corvette from 510 Race Engineering that is brushing up right against the 9-second mark. Then, the C7 Corvette is back again, against a fifth-gen Camaro—and even though it runs a slower time, that’s enough to beat the Camaro.

A few motorcycles and smokestack-pumping Chevy trucks make their way in here, too. There’s even a Cummins-powered Dodge Lil’ Red Express that comes in and does a nasty burnout, just like it would’ve back in the 1970s.
