If it goes fast, Simon likes it. Computers, cars, rockets, it doesn't matter, as long as there is speed involved. Apart from his love of sim racing in virtual reality, Simon also loves to drive his '17 Fiesta ST through the mountain roads near his home city of Calgary, AB. Simon's penchant for big horsepower makes him partial to modern supercharged small block Corvettes and aftermarket craziness.
Earlier this morning, the 2020 Corvette C8 Owner’s Manual PDF was released on Chevrolet’s service website. While the manual describes lots of neat features of the new Corvette C8, the most important pieces of information are how to break in the car properly, and what the recommended service schedule is....
As posted by CorvetteBlogger, two credible sources have reported that the 2020 Corvette C8 could start shipping to dealers as early as tomorrow, February 28. However, this is not a reason to call your Corvette dealership and ask where your car is. Rumors and credible sources are one thing, actual...
Johnny Bohmer Proving Grounds uploaded a new clip recently of a 2019 Corvette C7 ZR1 challenging the standing mile top speed tests they often do. The ZR1 reaches a speed of 191.2 MPH in the standing mile. It’s amazing how quickly the models of just last year have been buried...
Over this past weekend, the World Endurance Championship (WEC) visited the Circuit Of The Americas in Austin, Texas.

CarBuzz recently reported on an interesting listing that was found on eBay, specifically about official OEM carbon fiber wheels for a Corvette C8. As it currently stands, no such option exists on the Chevrolet car configuration tool for the C8. They were listed as “2020 Corvette C8 Carbon Revolution [20/21-inch]...
As reported on CarScoops, while the 2020 Corvette C8 has finally started shipping from the production center in Bowling Green to dealerships, those same dealerships have quite a few Corvette C7‘s to clear off their lots. As an example, if one were to look for a 2019 Corvette C7 Z06,...
CorvetteBlogger posted up a great video of multiple Corvette C8‘s, including Z51 versions, using launch control at Spring Mountain during the Chevrolet Ride and Drive event this week. Launch control isn’t new to the Corvette, or even to Chevrolet cars in general, however the C8 uses the technology and ability...
The video reviews of the new 2020 Corvette C8 are finally starting to appear. We’ve been reading about them, we’ve been watching videos of production, engineering, performance. But now, actual reviews! The first one in the form of an actual review comes from The Fast Lane Car: Personally, one of...
For those that own an older Corvette, or those that want an C1 Corvette, a current auction at BringATrailer has passed $30,000 in bids after just 3 days of listing. The car has a full service history, no damage claims, a clean title, and is in fair body shape, cared...
Over the past weekend, news emerged that GM was killing off the Holden brand in Australia and New Zealand, both of which are RHD car markets. Concerns were obviously raised about GM cars, and specifically the Corvette C8, being available in RHD markets. According to news posted moments ago on...
Less than 24 hours after posting up his sighting of the Accelerate Yellow C8 Z51 yesterday, YouTube user Drive 615 has uploaded another, much longer video of his trip to Bowling Green. A hair over 14 minutes of Corvette goodness in this video shows us what pretty much all the...
Posted early this afternoon, YouTube user Drive 615 visited the Bowling Green assembly plant and got a close up look at a 2020 Corvette C8 Stingray in the rarely chosen Accelerate Yellow premium metallic color. The yellow with black accents really does make the car pop a lot more, at...
The GM plant in Tonawanda, New York is the home base for all of the engines that are being put into the 2020 Corvette C8 Stingray. A local news channel, 7 Eyewitness News, did a small interview segment, showing proud workers and more than a few smiles. As you can...
In news from CorvetteBlogger, the owner of a red 1967 Corvette C2 Sting Ray found out that his Thursday the 13th was his bad luck day. The 67 Sting Ray, with a collector’s plate reading 58139, was stolen from the 122nd Avenue East area of Puyallup, South of Tacoma. The...
A tip whispered in our ears here at Corvsport told of a pristine condition, 900 original miles 1995 Corvette C4 ZR-1 being sold at an online auction. “Surely,” we said, “we would have heard about it before now?” Apparently, we had not, and it was sold on February 4, 2020,...

As posted on CorvetteForum, one of their members was able to get shots from a contact of theirs that was able to drive to the Bowling Green assembly plant and found a C8 in the parking lot. Immediately, as any of us would do, side by side pictures were snapped....

As initially reported on CorvetteBlogger on February 9, two C8 Z06 prototypes were seen “chasing” a Ferrari 488 onto the interstate in Valencia, California. Quotes are used as these two prototypes and one other were also seen testing against a Porsche GT2 RS recently. We suspect that the 488 is...
As first reported by Roadshow, in the trailer for the new Corvette C8 documentary “Revolution: The Mid-Engine Corvette Story,” there is a lap time hidden at 0:52 seconds. Added in with special effects to make it look like just another one of the chalk graffiti items on the track, the...
We all love Corvettes, it’s a fact. It’s why you’re here on Corvsport. As such, we aim to be slightly different than other “Top 10 Interior Accessories For Your Car!” lists that then go on to list 5 flavors of coffee mug holders. We’ve talked to Corvette owners, we’ve dug...
We, as Corvette enthusiasts, know that while you can generate astounding amounts of horsepower from our roaring beasts, lighten and replace parts, and can maximize the personality of our cars with intricate details that only we approve, the basic laws of physics still apply. And of those laws, friction and...
Whether you are looking to replace a worn-out stock part, or add your own little touch of flair to the inside of your Corvette, shift knobs are just one of the few things that owners can easily replace in their cars. We all know that sometimes the right hand-feel makes...

For us petrolheads, the garage is our sanctuary. We go there when we want to admire our cars, work on said cars, or as our own little cave where the stresses of the outside world can melt away for a few minutes. Some of us take the garage to the...
Corvette Model Kits The Corvette, when launched, was one of those cars that was destined to become an instant classic. A car with a shape that defined a decade, with performance that helped kickstart the muscle car craze of the 60’s and 70’s, everyone has their own favorite model and...
