Chevrolet Corvette Pulls Extreme Drifting at LS Fest, Not Your Usual Drift Car

Nevertheless, the exception that proves the rule is always sweet to behold. In this case, we are dealing with a C6 ‘Vette whose owner acts as if he had stolen the car.

This ‘Vette doesn’t seem to pack the extreme modifications usually present on drift cars, such as the ginormous steering angle. However, it does seem to have a solid tech setup, since the Chevy keeps up with the drifters without breaking a sweat.

We’ve seen tons of Corvettes used for racing, but most of the people who decided to invest in such cars, taking them past their standard specification, take them to the drag strip.

Sure, with the right tech setup, the ‘Vette can also act like a brilliant autocross machine and we can’t say the examples are few. However, there’s a special kind of feeling one gets when seeing the Corvette pulling moves such as a display of extreme slip angles or blistering transfers.

The action took place on the Beech Bend Raceway Park, Bowling Green, Kentucky. This means the C6 was smoking its rear tires at home, since the Bowling Green Assembly Plant is the place that has been bringing all Corvette to the world since 1981.

We’re not sure whether the guy driving had some serious caffeine at the Corvette Caffe in the area, but his skilled moves made us suspect that. As you can imagine, the LS Fest is one of the best events out there when it comes to the aural side, and you can enjoy it all in the clip below.
