Rode in Vette zr-1 today

So my friend's very wealthy dad gave him his old 1990 zr-1 corvette. (the one with the engine designed by lotus pushing 375 Hp) The 0-60 on that thing is close to 4.3. It used to be the fastest car in the world. Talk about a sleeper. Damn that thing was fast, normally im not a fan of domestics but . When he punched it......my head nailed the seat.......And then I went home and drove my civic . Alls I have to say is that that kid is probably the luckiest 17 yr old there is.

Dood. . . two ways to look at this situation.

1. He's the luckiest 17 year old you know
2. He'll be the deadest 17 year old you KNEW before too long

Hope he's careful with that thing. Power + inexperienced drivers usually = Bad wreck
