Default Corvette videos and handling

I don't know what you expect from your Corvettes...
go fast, slow or restore them...

I'm still not totally satisfiedof my Corvette handling in riding the bends, but working on it and learning. Possibly I'm going to a race track to have some driving lessons and learn howto drive my Corvette at best

I would like to know your personal impressions and experiences about the C3 handling , but before doing it , please have a look at these great videos... I think that after watching them you'll go out for a Corvette's ride

great handling , but very large tires too...

I would like this car...my reference

you'll surely laugh when these english guys talk...you will not laugh anymore after you seewhat they can do.
please view above all the 3 laps race they do in the second half of the video. OK , modern Vette but 400 hp and always a Vette

Finally , enjoy this

Hi Aldo,

Want to save a ton of money? Sell your C3 now and buy a C6 instead. I'm over halfway there with what I have spent on my '79!

Some good videos. Wished it would warm up here. Coldest winter we've had in years. So much for global warming.

Here's a good autocross video: http://s27.photobucket.com/albums/c2...enExhaust1.flv

73shark. beautiful car.bad weather here too...
DV8. i would never go for a c6...regardless of money. But for a C3 like the one posted by 73shark yes.
I'm so in love with the C3 design...No big money now, but one day I would gladly go for a heavily mod corvette like the one in 73shark reply.This mod car has exhactly the type of handling I would like
