We wanted to make a real episode about what it's like to be from another country and try and get into American car culture, but as 2 very white guys in our 40s we decided we probably shouldn't tackle this on our own. Our very good friend, Exotics volunteer, track day junky, and fellow road tripper Gaurav Rajasekar joined us to tell us what it was like moving here from India and jumping into the hot seat of a ‘MERICA screaming, push rod punching, tire smoking, steel guitar twangin' Corvette Grand Sport (no really, he listens to a lot of country). He's also a great, funny story teller and you're sure to get a few laughs out this unscripted, unfiltered episode of Rain City Supercars.

Dans ce podcast, le chroniqueur automobile Philippe Laguë complète la riche histoire de la Corvette, en prenant bien soin de garder le dessert pour la fin : l’essai routier de l’exclusive Corvette Grand Sport. La Chevrolet Corvette est une voiture mythique. C’est un mot galvaudé par les spécialistes de marketing (et pas seulement dans l’industrie automobile) mais il faut bien admettre qu’il s’applique à la Corvette, pour de multiples raisons. Cet article Histoire de la Corvette (2e partie) et essai de la Corvette Grand Sport (podcast 37) est apparu en premier sur Philippe Laguë.

We're in the studio today after an oddly tiring day, talking about some pretty important cars. In big news, Adi has bought a new daily driver and tells us about the adventures the team faced trying to acquire and register it. Zack was in the Nissan Qashqai, and Jerry was in the Jeep Wrangler Chief. Adi spent some time with the updated Subaru Legacy 3.6R, which somehow was his first time with a 3.6L Subaru. We briefly revisit the Corvette Grand Sport and talk about the end of our motorsports season with the Mazda MX-5 RF and Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires.

Like a 1963 Corvette Grand Sport shooting off a cliff, FAST 5 catapulted the Fast and Furious franchise into the era of B-movie goodness. The girls discuss parallels between the film and Ocean's 11, why Giselle suffers so much workplace harassment, and why Han doesn't have a solo movie already (Tokyo Drift doesn't count). Plus: an exciting glimpse into Kelly and Sarah's fanfiction/spec script dreams for Fast and Furious in space.

The problem with the 2010 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport is, it's not really a limited-edition car (no special VIN is assigned), it doesn't perform any better or worse than a base-model Corvette, and finally, the price of the Grand Sport comes within striking distance of the car it emulates — the brutal Corvette Z06.
