Turbo + Z06 = parts car
Not bad considering it happened at 230 MPH!
I think I will wrap mine in Blue tape nest time I have to get on 635.
or better yet Electrical tape........oh wait thats been done.
Corvette+blue tape. Must be one of the Jones brothers.
They've got a drag chute on that Vette (which deployed when the car was on it's side and flipping) but if I was planning on going 240mph, I think I might want some "directional stability" aero on the car too, like a vertical longitudinal fin or something. Hang it out back where it wouldn't create too much drag. I'd also look into an automatic release on the chute. At those speeds, human reaction times are sloooooow. Automatic might even be too slow to prevent a spin/flip.
