    Ahhhhh……. The much rumored simpup truck.

    NEW C8 CORVETTE Z06 WAIL LIKE A FERRARI! *9K RPM + LAUNCH CONTROL*

    This is correct. The Z will reduce unsprung weight but will likely be on par with the standard C8.

    Vermont, you're #1!

    I’m looking at some property in Westford. I’ve passed this at least 20 times and laugh every single time. The town and this guy have a long history, mostly bad.

    my dogs killed the neighbors cat

    Well, here is my experience from Vermont. Very similar experience but I was the neighbor whose property the animal was killed on. Sucked bad because I like my neighbor who owned the dog. Unfortunately, I had to testify the dog was on my property. The dogs owner had to pay vet bills, pet...

    ZR1 reportedly ran 7:12 around the 'Ring

    Don’t bother trying to speak rationally about a GM product with OnDelusional. If a spectator with a stopwatch timed the 350R or FGT to a slower time, he’d in order: 1)Say the guy is a moron 2)Then state the man is actually blind. 3)The watch wasn’t operated correctly. 4)The watch maker is crap...

    Looks like an Aztec with a bed. How can that get approval?

    ZR1 On Track (Really Makes 850HP???)

    For a guy that says he doesn’t attend the church of the Ring, you sure like to go to the altar.

    Chevy Corvette ZR1 Just Smashed the Ford GT's VIR Lap Record

    Jim is an accomplished driver. Not sure why anyone would be shocked by this. Most test drivers are. That said, there is always someone faster. Jim will tell you himself that, if given a couple days, the corvette factory drivers are faster. On a track like the Ring, make that a week or two...

    Ford GT at VIR

    This is on point. The GT is somewhat similar in concept as the LFA, just better executed. Ford did the heavy lifting and contracted out the production. I’m sure they looked at how much money Toyota lost (think carbon fiber loom) on the LFA and decided to pass on in house production. No way Ford...

    Chevy Corvette ZR1 Just Smashed the Ford GT's VIR Lap Record

    I’ll give you credit for one thing, you really embrace your hate for GM. I’m surprised by the reaction of some on here. The ZR1 was out for the ACR-E not the GT. Different missions, both ridiculously fast, both awesome. I guess since the Viper is gone, the Corvette guys couldn’t help but poke...

    c8 mid-engine corvette to pump out 850hp

    The forecast document is in no way a statement of fact. I believe the forecast is saying 850hp is the highest rating possible, not a projected rating.

    Justice League: 7 Movie Clips - Warner Bros Pictures & DC Films

    The movie was far too rushed. I left disappointed. 6/10

    C7 ZR1 almost here!!!

    It was earlier in testing but the ZR1 mule had the ACR covered at LS. The only question is whether they can get around the sound booth.

    C7 ZR1 almost here!!!

    The car is comfortably under the 7min mark.

    Viper ACR runs 7:01 at the Nurgurbring

    You are vastly oversimplifying the engineering needed to make a car go fast. The ACR is very impressive in terms of cost and engineering. If 7min is so easy, why is it so rare? As for magical engineering to make a car go fast 5+ laps, production (road legal) car companies hardly ever go down...

    Viper ACR runs 7:01 at the Nurgurbring

    Oh man..... On D Bitter doesn't believe me. I'm going to take a break and re-evaluate my life. This is truely a crushing blow.

    Viper ACR runs 7:01 at the Nurgurbring

    Why exactly would I tell you what data I've seen? What's the benefit? So you can go say GM is fudging numbers and I put someone's job at risk? Right...... The new Vette has the ACR covered on many tracks. The only question is whether they can keep the exhaust quiet enough to run those courses...

    Viper ACR runs 7:01 at the Nurgurbring

    The car is in near production form and won't lose much, if any, time. You are the one who wanted to point out the C6ZR1 as "direct" competition to the ACR. When the ZR1 ran its time, was the ACR out? Your hate is strong and your logic is lolz.

    Viper ACR runs 7:01 at the Nurgurbring

    The C7Z06 has independently run a 7:13. I'm not talking the C6ZR1. The upcoming winged Vette is under the 7min mark (so I've been told ;) ). As for the repaved track, conditions are always changing. If you foolishly live by the Ring marketing, you're going to get burned by it too. Way too many...

    Viper ACR runs 7:01 at the Nurgurbring

    Not that I'm a huge Ring time fan, but please tell me what the new ZR1 (GMs most comparable model vs the ACR) did?

    Going from full size pickup to midsize

    I'll post a pic of the post trip report. Here in Vermont, most speed limits are 50mph max. 6th gear on Rt.2 &7, no need for 3rd or 5th gear shifts.

    Going from full size pickup to midsize

    I have a love/hate relationship with my 17' Tacoma TRD Sport. I love the 6spd manual, the ride is decent, the space isn't bad, and I get a consistent 26mpg around town and 28-31mpg on the highway (with the cap). I hate the squeaky suspension, squeaky clutch pedal, and the V6 with no power below...

    Spy Shots—2018 Corvette ZR1

    All depends on what the final tune is. I've heard numbers from 715-750hp. My guess is 705hp.
