    Bill, that is a beautiful and good running Corvette but I was particularly disturbed at the first video where you are accelerating at what appears to be an excessive rate on a public road and likely exceeding the posted speed limit. What are we teaching our youth with such a display? They will learn nothing positive from this. I suggest you delete this first video and reshoot showing our young people how it should be done. Show them a proper power shift at redline! Show the hand-foot cooordination, that tach needle bouncing, and banging that shift lever into gear! Maybe even a little neck snapping. If we don't teach them, who will??? Great videos and I really enjoyed---but a more aggressive one would be nice.

            Excellent point, but I think it's supposed to be a sales video. If that is the case it should show Bill's Grandmother carefully driving the car at 15 mph!
