Corvette: A small, fast, easily-manuverable warship.

Makes sense, eh?

You are both half right: Myron Scott worked for one of GM's ad agencys when he came up with the name. He's also one of the original Soap Box Derby promoters.

It's called DR1, beacause it was made possible by Chevy Cheif Engineer Don Runkle.
