Watch A Driver Destroy A C6 Corvette ZR1 Clutch At The Dragstrip: Video

File this under the biggest whoopsie drawer you can find, and prepare to cover your ears.

It seems the owner of this C6 Corvette ZR1 let a friend get behind the driver’s seat who wasn’t exactly in the know on how to launch the beast from the line.

After a few decent passes by the owner, the Corvette ZR1 falls into the hands of a novice driver, who proceeds to the dump the clutch hard. Real hard. And the noise is horrendous.

This doesn’t happen once, but twice. Then, it happened a third time before the ZR1 was apparently hauled off the track with a roasted clutch. Whoopsie indeed.
