Thieves spray painted C7 and did donuts and crashed
Kind of makes you sick to see these morons driving someone’s stolen dream Corvette around a parking lot and doing donuts and even crashing into another car. That was after they spray painted giant letters on both sides of the black 2017 Corvette.
This was in Richmond and there is a good chance I have driven on the same roads that they drove that stolen C7 on after they stole it.

When I was that age, we would street race, not safe but we weren't out to destroy someone's property either

Feel really sorry for that Corvette owner. I have no sympathy for thieves - hope they can be caught and the full force of the law brought against them.

Unfortunately, this looks like another case of people trying to imitate the high-risk stunt driving they see online and in movies like the Fast & Furious movie series. Except in real life, as we all know, there are real consequences.

Cincinnati area takeovers are being targeted hard...the last one was a sting and the CPD and sheriff's office who showed up in force with "paddy wagons" arrested a bunch of people and impounded 70 plus cars...Louisville KY crushing cars that they find to have non-matching VINs. Thos arrested in cinci spent the weekend in jail. Not just a few but the majority. LOL. It was an awesome thing to see on the news.

We all own/drive Corvettes for the performance fun but even when I was younger I never wanted to steal, damage, or destroy another person's property. This social media generation all apparently want attention beyond what their parents and family can provide. I really hope they catch these idiots and especially the extra-stupid idiot who showed his face for his moment of social media glory.

There is a $25,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of those responsible.
