[AngryColt]

Raiti trying his hardest to be subtle. This thing is insane. Demon 170 Mustang GTD and now this we are seeing history be made.

We got a 1000hp corvette from the factory before GTA 6 💀

Joe, your background knowledge on these cars is unmatched. Because of you now I know what the "ZR" in 'ZR1" stands for. 1064 HP!?!?! I feel like Doc Brown from Back To The Future when his younger self realized he needed 1.21 gigawatts of power to power the flux capacitor. The fact we get all this insane engineering and hypercar performance which will most likely be at a supercar price is mind blowing!

This represents the absolute pinnacle of Corvette engineering.1064 HP on pump gas with no electric motors or batteries to weigh it down while passing emissions and all with a warranty. Easily over 200+ MPH and the 1/4 mile in well under 10 seconds. That is INSANE! Now I know we are living in the future. Again, WOW!

I do have to add with the Hennessey F5, the Ford Mustang GTD and now this Corvette ZR1, America is serious about taking on the world. These "daily drivers" are putting up performance numbers that used to be considered science fiction and they all sound amazing doing it! I feel like we are seeing the pinnacle of internal combustion engine technology on display for all to see. What a time to be a car enthusiasts! Thank you again Joe and Lori for the great coverage! This is a moment in history!

I'm not a Corvette person but this is bad ass. I thought this car was going to be at least 800hp or 900hp, but 1064hp my reaction was wtf. If I ever win the lottery I would definitely get one of these. That's just unreal.

[_Pookiesaurus_]

I can't believe they built me win the lottery!

[jamesmace]

I think I speak for everyone when I say we thank you for the hard work you and great content you put out. We greatly appreciate it ❤❤❤

[koreyhimself]

Raiti.... you have made hall of fame status.. congratulations to you and the Mrs. I love seeng every bit of it. You never had to change anything. You came out just like this.

[doggedlydetermined]

I remember when the C7 ZR1 came out, feels like yesterday! Hopefully Joe can get one of these bad boys

[redboy]

Damn ! They went all-in on that thing ! V8 flat-plane crank, twin turbo, carbon wheels, carbon-ceramic brakes, 345 Pilot Cup 2 R's, heat extractor hood, big wing, etc 👀👀

[thatexoticlife]

HELL YEAH Joe!!! Everyone else is watching a “live reveal”…. you’re actually there brother. Keep up the great work, sub for life! ON THROTTLE Baby!! ✌🏻

[jg]

Nobody does car unveilings like Joe. On

[mikelewis]

Joe I’m overwhelmed with 1064 HP. The only thing missing is butterfly doors.🤔

[civicpride]

Chevy hit a home run with the design and performance for this car.. car is not even out and it is already a future classic.

[esaireyna]

12:21 HOLY 1, 064HP from the 5.5L LT7 Twin Turbo flat plane V8?! That’s some serious balls and first time being built in Bowling Green KY

[amill]

The HTC color is sick! Thanks Joe and Lori for a rare look on this day.

[GrahammdYT]

Wow. They perfected it! I hope they did wonders with the launch control!!

[Wicked_RotF]

That is a beast. Looks amazing in yellow. Adolph Thornton definitely would have bought one, if he were still alive.
