785hp Blind Driver's World Record Chevy Corvette

785hp Blind Driver's World Record Chevy Corvette

Dan Parker set a new world record for the fastest blindfolded driver, reaching over 200 mph in a modified 2008 Chevy Corvette. The Corvette was equipped with a 440ci LS3-based engine producing 785hp, supplemented by nitrous. Parker utilized a unique audio guidance system to navigate the course, guided by rising or lowering tone pitches. The car's setup included a modified chassis, coil-over rear suspension, an air-shifted TH400, and a dual-control system to allow for a co-driver in the event of an emergency.
