I've seen Junior pull off his gloves in Nextel races (in car cam).
As to the Corvette, Myth Busters put a couple of dead pigs in the seats of a 1987 'Vette and sealed the sucker up
in a shipping container for some months.
They were never able to get the smell out. I think they sold it for parts for maybe $3000.
It would be much more fun to burn a Corvette and see about getting it back in to usuable shape.
I saw that MythBusters episode and it was a terrific one. As they all are.
