I'm always amazed at the difference in production value of commercials then vs now.

Cars still look great though

Funny that the production charts don't show a copper ZR-1, yet there it was in that video leading the way.

Take notice, in 1990 they actually showed the cars in the commercial. I have seen some commercials of late that the car seemed to be an afterthought.

Better check your monitor settings, that first car is red as a firetruck.

That's funny. Every other video (or picture) shows red as red, but that video still shows as copper on my screen. Oh well.

Not only is it a great video, it shows how the Corvette was dominant in its time in SCCA. They beat others so bad that they had to establish the Corvette Challenge to run against one another as their was no competition.
