it's so great to see Wil Cooksey in that group photo at the beginning. I still own my 2007 C6 3LT that was built under his guidance when he was plant manager and it's the best car I've ever had!

Absolutely love the Touring Edition on my C7 Grand Sport! 👍

How come all 3 American car companies can not build a small good car for most of us??😎

It is wonderful to hear the behind-the-scenes details of such an accomplished team.

I would not buy a e ray !!!

GM keeps saying the LT7 has 76mm turbos but in reality they're more like 62mm turbos - the compressor wheels are 62mm inducer and 76mm exducer. To be fair, there are a lot of different naming/sizing conventions used to describe turbos from various manufacturers, but if you put these next to an "actual" 76mm turbo you're going to be pretty disappointed 😉 And that's fine bc anyone who knows anything about turbos will tell you that twin 76mm turbos would make zero sense for the LT7's combination of displacement, boost levels, and power, so I just think it's weird that GM marketing feels compelled to oversell their size when we were already more-than-pleasantly surprised to learn the ZR1 makes over 1000 horsepower.

Never say never on the active Aero Josh says…. Im guessing the Zora will be sporting the Active Aero

So what will the MSRP be? My ERay allocation is coming soon and I need to decide if I am going to go with ZR1 instead!

this is a good presentation

Great man for sure.

Great Stuff.

Thank you for sharing the video, would love to see a longer video with the sounds of the construction and everything and actually see how everything was done

We made the trip from France for the NCM 30th Weekend and attended this superb evening event and were rewarded by seeing our friends inducted! All three inductees were truly deserving of the honour - congratulations to all!

Very impressive and well deserved mr prince!

👍

I'm glad Tadge is getting his flowers while he's here to appreciate it.

I have a signed placard in my office at work of a C8 celebrating $1 billion in accessory sales. I put it up as a constant reminder of my goals & watching this, it means that much more to me. Congratulations on a very well-deserved induction.

Sitting here in England, I'm thinking Tadge for President? He can be Prime Minister over here too!

What a great guy. He gave me my very first ride in a C5, at the Birthday Bash. Answered all my questions and he's a good driver, as we slid through the rolling hills of Ky. Got out of the car and said to the director (1 of 2) of the C5 Registry, "Dan, that guy will be the head engineer someday". Actually, it was an easy call.

Well-deserved thank you for a amazing cars through the time you’ve been with Corvette you have made so many differences over your years and you have made Corvette what it is today the supercar that everyone ever wanted thank you again

Boring!

I had the privilege of attending the event, which served as a fitting conclusion to an exceptional week. I extend my heartfelt congratulations to this year's inductees, whose accomplishments are truly deserving of recognition.

uplifting

Awsome

HOOAH!

These guys who designed this gas guzzler don't give a goddamn about you car buffs in the comments! Do they answer or thank any of you ? And aren't the American auto makers supposed to stop building gas guzzlers? I know the car buffs like it but we absolutely can't live without these cars ? I think these cars are sexy too but it's time we change!

Thank you for the most awesome car ever made

C7 and C8 are amazing!

C8

Thanks Tadge,from the lowcountry of South Carolina. I'm really enjoying my black on black 2lz Z06 Enjoy your retirement!

Thanks Tadge.

Thank you Tadge 🇺🇸🏁

I appreciate you Tadge and can't help but feel like we've been good ole friends throughout the years! I bought a new C5, C6, C7 and now on my 3rd C8. Thank you for being a leader we can love, trust and fully respect. I wish you the very best retirement!

I The Corvette Then and Now All 8 Generations it's Special America Sports Car. 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

Very well deserved. A true legend in the automotive world. Thank you

Thank you Tadge for all of your efforts in bringing Corvette owners dreams to life. 10 years on with our C7 and we love it as much as the day we picked it up at the museum. Road trips across the USA, on track and just folks commenting on the Night Race Blue. It has been awesome. Happy Retirement.

A true legend 👏

thanks so much for everything you have done for Corvette. one day maybe... till then love to see the passion

He is the living embodiment of what is to be truly appreciated.

Thank you, Tadge! You have personally touched the greatest Corvette generations and you leave BIG shoes to fill! Here's to many more years of Corvette! 👍👍

I've only seen him in videos, but I always came away impressed by his poise and grace. Grats Tadge.

Incredible dude.

From the day I saw Tadge on with leno showing off the C8 I loved him.. :) got mine in 22, and its the most amazing car ive ever owned... dont get me wrong.. love the older models too, the C7 is beautiful. but the C8 knocked it outta the park. Thank you Tadge. Best wishes for a long and happy retirement.

Thanks Tadge! Love my C8!

I remember watching the C8 debut live out of curiosity and having no desire for another car. I was blown away with the presentation and now own a C8……and I never was a fan of American cars. Thanks Tadge!

I’ve owned almost every platform of Corvette. Some more than 1. Would say without a doubt, Tadge is second in line behind Zora, with Dave Hill next. Thanks for the excellent reflection of who Tadge is and how he rose to the top.👍🏼👍🏼

Very Nice

Tadge, I bought my first Corvette almost 20 years ago @ the age of 21 and now I’ve lost count I’m on #30 something. I can’t thank you enough for all you did for Corvette and for continuing to elevate the brand to a level we never thought possible. Thank you thank you thank you. I cannot wait to get my c8 zr1, that car alone is beyond a GOAT status car that you developed! Thank you again boss and enjoy retirement. I hope to get the chance to meet you someday.

Congrads Tadge! Can only say with the C8 roll out and constant constraints in being able to order the options you want on a 100K car - GM and the PM Harlan fell real short. Cant believe Harlan was not removed from his PM role around this car. Moved myself over to Porsche after being a long time Corvette owner but cant understand how folks order a car and have to settle because your options are not available. Later GM.
