Article Abstract:

In commemoration of its 40th anniversary, Car and Driver magazine decided to use a 1995 Chevy Corvette as its project car. The goal of the project was to refit the engine to allow it reach 200 mph, while still remaining street legal and emission certified. Nearly $60,000 was spent on this project.
