It’s Friday! Our weather continues to bounce up and down. One day we’re cruising in the 60s and 70s, the next we’re slammed back into the 30s and 40s. It’s like Spring needs a jump start.

Anyway, today I’ve got the usual Friday lineup—double babes, double jokes—and a fresh amateur photo to share with you all. Have a great weekend and enjoy!

It’s Thursday. Grand Sport, baby! Long known as one of the best bang-for-your-buck trims in the Corvette lineup, the Grand Sport is making its return for 2027. Details on the new C8-based version are still under wraps, but we do know it’ll feature a wider stance and a healthy dose of aerodynamic downforce. Under the skin, expect some hardware shared with the Z06, along with the possible debut of Chevrolet’s next-generation small-block V8. And if the rumors hold, Chevy might also roll out a hybrid, all-wheel-drive variant—potentially badged as the Grand Sport X.

We got the word earlier in the week that Chevrolet was planning on running the new 2027 Corvette Grand Sport at Sebring prior to the start of the race. Not only that, but the new C8 would be accompanied by other Grand Sports from previous generations. The highlights of those included the Chassis 001 1963 Corvette Grand Sport Roadster originally raced at Sebring in 1964 by Roger Penske and Jim Hall, and the VIN 001 1996 Corvette Grand Sport which was previously owned by retired Corvette Assistant Chief Engineer John Heinricy. After reaching out to our friends at Chevrolet PR, we got the “suggestion” to be trackside between 8:30-9:00 am where we could see them drive by.

It’s Wednesday. Since 2021, the Tesla Plaid has been busy embarrassing pretty much anything that lines up next to it—gas or electric—in the quarter mile. Now, here comes the 2026 Corvette ZR1X. Packing Chevrolet’s LT7 twin-turbo V8 in the middle and an electric motor up front, it delivers a combined 1,250 horsepower. Oh—and it rips from 0 to 60 in a ridiculous 1.68 seconds.

So… let’s see what happens when the ZR1X squares up against the Plaid.
