Despite losing several weeks of production during the 2nd quarter due to supply chain issues, Chevrolet still managed to sell 7,971 Corvettes during three-month period of April, May, and June. While we know it could have been more, we are now seeing that it was enough to dominate the 2nd Quarter sales charts for premium sports cars in the United States.

A DOHC and Flat-Plane Crank Explainer
Editor’s Note: The majority of this story originally appeared in October 2019, when the official C8.R reveal, and some boring homologation rules led our author on a speculative journey into the 5.5L V8 with dual overhead cams and a flat-plane crankshaft that he thought would be found behind the cockpit of the C8 Z06.

Compared to my first two cars, a used 1970 Monte Carlo and then a new 1979 260 V8 Cutlass Supreme Brougham, the ’79 Corvette was as strong as Popeye.
