Texas Police Use C7 Corvette Technology to Catch Street Racers

[gtc]

I doubt Chevrolet had this in mind when they were developing the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) feature available in the new C7 Corvette, but it certainly should serve as a warning to illegal street racers.

The high-tech video system that records everything from the Corvette’s speed to scenic drives was recently used in a sting operation by the Harris County Sheriff’s Office in Texas to catch illegal street racers, which included some Corvette owners.

In the Harris County Sheriff’s PDR video below, which was posted to YouTube, the covert Corvette recording the street racers can be seen tailing three other Corvettes that reach speeds of 100 mph.
