We recently reminded me that comparing women to cars is beyond cliché and sexist. Yet once I settled on a particular comparison, I could not shake my conscience.
Every move made by the new Corvette Z06 brought to mind Miranda Lambert. Not the new single, thinner Miranda. Naw, I mean Kerosene Miranda :. More dramatic than you can handle, the more attractive you will agree and better than most will ever know
It is at the bar having already shot two shots of Bourbon. The right word will get you dancing. The poor gets you a punch. Do you have the courage to tackle? With 650 horsepower on tap, you better be damn sure.
My first fight with the Corvette came this past summer in New Orleans Motorsports Park. He was an all-too brief interlude. I was at my "day job" coaching with Xtreme Xperience. In all selection modes, the power was too much and the stability control was too intrusive.
The next track was in Pikes Peak International Raceway Colorado. of course, my favorite 911 GT3 was there, as was the Lamborghini Huracán with his power ring runner-up, but I was determined to get to know Miranda. the high banked the "roval" PP done a good time just floor and let the V-8 belt supercharged on its high ratings.
and, oh my God, can she sing. of course, in the field more than 0 horsepower, 48 more horsepower does not sound much, especially if you are carrying another 400 pounds on the Huracán. But Miranda does not show it. Nope, she sticks her hand in the air and gives a good cry "Yee-haw!" While the surge in line at the bank. Miranda is damn well, American. In this context, which is a complement.
But the corners. While giving guests a tour, I chose the fashion runway and turned off the nannies. She was a handful. Miranda now had three shots and was out of control. Yes, we had fun, but we did not succeed everywhere and it was exhausting. Our interaction was too short to build on my minor success.
The interior is what you expect. Of course, people ride in the Corvette, drill dash and mention how "cheap", it is compared to the Ferrari 458. Of course, the Corvette is not as beautiful as the 458. The Corvette is priced at so you can buy it and my house in suburban Atlanta for almost the same price as the Ferrari. And for that price, the design of the Corvette is comfortable and sturdy and the materials are up, not to mention he has much adjustability as numerous Italian competitors to host, shall we say, the size of humans' US '.
Last month, Miranda and I met again in at Hallett Motor Racing Circuit. Again, it was two drinks, but I was determined to break the code. Two of my top five customers were very qualified, the launch of the 'Vette with cornering success and blasting on the back straight on the hill. In Sport mode, the rear end was very light on the hill and came out dramatically.
We said the wrong thing. Miranda was crazy and she punches.
Later that afternoon, a customer gave us the code. Put the Z06 in Track mode. Press traction control, then press again and hold. A menu appears on the central dashboard, select "Sport 1." The gauges indicate the traction control is turned off, but it is not. However, the threshold is much larger and less aggressive, while shock went to their firmest settings.
This was the secret. Miranda was transformed. Leaning against the bar, she beat her third shot, smiled and showed him unusually American traits. Huracán to give a middle finger, she left the Italian in a supercharged glory howl and could damn near go blow for blow with the GT3 in the corners. When she could not, an additional 175 horsepower makes for a great counterpoint from the rectified sidewalk. Hallett became his personal dance floor. Customers and similar instructors began maneuvering for a chance to dance with the voluptuous daughter of Kentucky.
But this weekend, it was mine as much as possible. Miranda and I both stepped around the hills just outside of Tulsa. She leaned toward my ear and whispered, "Blake that"
Maybe it's my southern roots, but with the right configuration, the 'Vette spoke to me not only as a reducer?. but as an American criticism of the "Vette is still a lack of refinement by European deadlocks but the Z06 does not seek to address these shortcomings -.. he embraces
what that.? My dashboard are not as refined ? 650 Power . I do not have all-wheel drive ? 650 lb.-ft. torque . my profile is not as sexy ? Bite my supercharged ass.
Who in the right setting. the back side is the view the more will receive
