Insanely fast. I am surprised the car didn't go off the road and fly off the mountain

Awesome video. Those Speedo shots were km/hr, but still plenty fast. One of best drivers in the world, so just another day at the office for him.

Looks great in the promotional videos.

Reality for many who think 600+ hp cars are chariots of the Gods for the streets is often entirely different. https://youtu.be/pS-6c7VzHm0

Agreed, Gavin did a nice job of piloting the C7 down the mountain, thanks for posting David !

This happens often with a new high performance car, with a new driver never having driven 500+ HP cars with cold summer tires on a narrow street. Not expecting snap oversteer! Did I leave anything out?

It took me one time on the street fortunately not hitting anything but the curb to never repeat that mistake. I only take my car to track days now. Much safer and more fun learning to brake and shift your car at insane speeds on a closed road course. You can NEVER replicate that same feeling on the streets no matter how much horsepower.

After driving a few Ferrari’s on the track I quickly realized just how much potential is left undiscovered on the streets. Those that do try to tap into it often pay a heavy price (both places). The fun is driving a car at 10/10 on the track and 7/10 on the backroads. After owning and test driving many exotics I’m back to the simplest and most reasonable formula of driving a car that brings driving pleasure at sane and reasonable pace any day of the week without having to hit the track. A 155hp, 2375lb car that drives and feels like a go kart. I don’t need 650hp to have fun. Your mileage may vary.
