This is Part 2 of 2 on Fuel Economy
Corvette fuel economy is a topic that affects the pocketbook of Corvette drivers but one that too few of us want to talk about it when we can talk about performance. So, ready or not, here is the lowdown on fuel economy, a topic that affects the performance of your car and along with emissions defines the performance that is possible. In two podcasts I discuss the current Corvette and then talk about the future and what’s in store for Corvette drivers in this world of increasing fuel efficiency requirements.

Reeves of Callaway Cars fame and I go way back to the time in 1986 when we made the decision to go for a naturally aspirated 4 cam engine (the LT5). We shared with Reeves the work we had done up to that point to develop a twin turbo Corvette. Reeves took this and made it his own, producing the Callaway Twin Turbo Corvette. This lead to the 250 + mph Sledge Hammer and an ongoing series of Callaway Corvettes, the latest being the C16.
