We Drove a 1,064-HP Corvette Through L.A. Traffic. Here’s What Surprised Us

Got the keys to a 1,064-hp Corvette ZR1, but was told no track time—just LA traffic. Seemed cruel, but we didn’t say no. Surprisingly, this 230-mph supercar handled stop-and-go smoothly, no jittery throttle or unwieldy bulk.
After gas-powered performance cars faded (Camaro axed, Dodge going EV), brands bounced back: Dodge’s twin-turbo Charger, Ford’s 800-hp Mustang, and Chevy’s ZR1 with a 5.5L twin-turbo V8. There’s even a 1,250-hp ZR1X (0-60 under 2s, top 10 at Nürburgring). Would you test its city drivability or sneak it to a track?
