Air date: Mar 28, 2018

François Allain gives a helping hand to a friend who owns a Chevrolet Corvette C3 Stingray, famous for its revolutionary design inspired by the fastest shark in the world, the Mako shark, symbol of power, fluidity and speed. The owner is counting on François to restore his Corvette. Engine to change, clutch, gearbox, brakes and electricity to redo ... The team of experts has a big job on their hands! François then gives an appointment to Luc Alphand, a champion like no other. Winner of the ski world cup in 1997, this absolute fan of speed notably won the Paris-Dakar in 2006 and placed 7th in the 24h of Le Mans at the wheel of a Corvette C5. Today he joins François to try a Corvette C3 racing on the speed ring of the legendary Linas-Montlhéry circuit, the scene of many world records.
