Corvette ZR1 Crash

It’s true that the power ratings of the Corvette ZR1 are a tad scary. But it could get downright terrifying if the tires of this 638-horsepower machine lose their grip right from underneath you. That’s what happens to this guy in the video below, just as he was about to participate in some hoonage with his friends. The language may be NSFW, just so you know.
