![[VIDEO] Police Use Spike Strips and Pit Maneuver to Stop Driver in Speeding C7 Corvette](https://www.corvetteblogger.com/images/content/2021/061821_1c.jpg)
A police chase of an Arctic White C7 Corvette Stingray that started around 1:30 am at a North Houston hotel went on for 25 minutes and much of it was caught on traffic cameras.

It did make for a more beautiful display, but all that beauty doesn’t really translate into the number of sales that a dealership thrives on.

Oil catch cans help protect direct-injection engines from spreading contaminants before they reach your intake manifold. They are generally easy to install and when you see what they do catch, it will make you wonder why you haven’t considered a catch can before this.

You don’t always have to add the “latest and greatest” to enjoy yourself in a Corvette.
Just ask Jeff, the owner of this 53-year-old 1968 Stingray convertible that he totally restored – right in his own garage.

Following up on our original story of the five right hand drive C8 Corvettes shown in Japan during a private review party held on May 29th at Fuji Speedway, we’ve come across a video from a Japanese automotive reviewer named Kazuo Shimizu who attended the event and got to drive the car on the track.
With the arrival of the mid-engine C8 Corvette, Chevrolet has been able to accomplish what some may have thought was unobtainable in the past – a new kind of Corvette owner that’s younger, wealthier, and more diverse than the buyers of previous generations.
