Corvette ZR-1

Driving a pace car is a stressful job. You’re driving a car rather quickly while thousands of horsepower fills your rearview mirror. There’s an element of danger and undoubtedly a ton of excitement. Sometimes these things will get to you. So what happens when they do? Well just ask Mark Reuss.

When the Corvette ZR1 dropped in Dubai last November, we knew it’d be fast. However, we just didn’t know how much. Now with its first record in books we get to see what it’s really made of.

After all the rumors and leaks, we finally get a chance to see the wild 2018 Corvette ZR-1.

Here’s the latest batch of videos from GT5’s Nurburgring GP Course, featuring a Corvette ZR-1 and Lexus SC430 Super GT car. While you watch, look for this interesting detail in the game’s menu system: the ZR-1, Audi R8, and CirtoenGT are listed as “Premium” cars. That’s interesting, because as we know from the semi-official GT5 feature list, Premium models will feature the game’s more violent damage system. Because we’ve only seen rally cars get busted up, it was initially assumed that only racing or rally cars would be in this Premium category, but now it looks like that may not be the case…
