The Corvette Funny Car Curse – Fact, or FICTION – Videos
No, this isn’t a whoo-whoo story that you might hear on Coast to Coast AM. Through the ’60s and ’70s funny car days, cars wearing a Corvette body shape, had unfortunate luck. There’s no metaphysical “curse”, it’s just aerodynamics. There are many variables.
