Cover: On Saturday, the L-88s were removed from
their display, lined-up abreast and toured through
Pheasant Run Resort for onlookers to behold.
“An absolutely incredible display of sight and
sound,” described David Burroughs. “By the
time they shut down, the unmistakable racket gave
way to clouds of coolant hissing from the L-88
engines and ticking headers. It was immediately
the personal highlight of my Corvette career!”
