Every so often, a factory-built car shows up at a drag strip and completely resets expectations. Not nudges them forward. Not “pretty quick for a street car.” Completely rewrites the conversation. That’s exactly what happened when Chevrolet rolled the new Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X onto the starting line at US 131 Motorsports Park. The result? An 8.675-second quarter-mile at 159.5 mph – in a street-legal, production-spec Corvette that anyone with the means can order. That number alone is s

And then there’s the version Clay Millican lived through during this past weekend’s Lucas Oil NHRA Winternationals in Pomona.  This version included a grinding, sweaty, gear-oil-soaked Saturday that had his entire operation camped in the staging lanes, watching the clock, watching the track get torn apart, watching their own r
