Ripping Up The Proving Grounds In A Bondurant C6

By Jen Dunnaway

When I was nine and we were visiting my grandparents in Phoenix, my dad went and did a weekend course at the Bondurant School of High Performance Driving instead of taking us kids to Disneyland. And now, after riding along for some hot laps with a Bondurant instructor in one of their c6 Corvettes, I kind of get why he did that. Bondurant had a nice little cone course set up at the Motor Trend Proving Grounds at SEMA. Comically, some Fiesta Movement rides were also running the course in amongst the burly Vettes. The Z51 coupe I rode in has a 430 hp Ls3 mated to a short-throw Tremec six speed–I can’t even imagine how rad it’d be to thrash one of their LS7 Z06’s out on the track.
