Man, you really had to go back in time, didn't you? This 2005 Vette video has been on here many times.
In later shows, these guys got a lot more respect for the Vette...especially the ZR1.

That was actually about 5 years ago. Jeremy actually had great comments for the ZR1 later on, Z06 on the track and made numerous episodes that had the LS3 (Blender/rocking chair) or a C6 chasing a Focus thru a mall.

The English are having a real bad time now since they got booted out of the World Cup by the Germans.

They're British, they just like to trash us. The guy is kind of a dick, but in this piece, he actually grits his teeth and admits he likes the "Zed R 1".
worth a listen..........
