Corvette Driver Shot For Not Street RacingAt about 4:55 am on October 24 a New Edge Ford Mustang driver and passenger(s) tried to goad a 2005 Chevy Corvette driver into racing them at 5070 Raleigh Lagrange Road in Memphis, Tennessee. According to police, while challenging the other driver to a street race, the driver of the Mustang blocked in the Corvette, which was in a parking lot. When the C6 Corvette driver refused, things turned ugly.
Both cars left the parking lot, but the Mustang driver and the other people in the pony car weren’t finished. The pulled up alongside the Corvette and opened fire, hitting the other driver multiple times before taking off. We’re not sure why they were so mad other than the fact the Chevy driver didn’t want to race them, which seems like just a bit of an overreaction.
