My boy Zyborg loves to crumble them cookies, crush those dreams.
You forgot the super fast track rat GT350R... Way way down the list tied for 35 (tied with the ZR1 from 7 model years earlier)
That's one lap. I mean repeated abuse at the track.
My life is lived at a real world class race track where I have seen more than plenty real ferraris go home with their tails between their legs. You are reading too many magazines my friend. Everything I say about race tracks and certain cars is from real world experience, not my friends cousin this or youtube that.. I also turn around 1k laps/year myself.
I of course have not seen the C8 perform yet but if anyone thinks its going to be slower than the outgoing C7 you are in for a world of hurt. And an outgoing C7 GS is faster than a 458 in the magazines and more reliable in real life

Wrong.
this is how we know your a bundle of sticks that doesnt know anything about racing
doesnt look like a lot of airflow.. i guess the overheating issue isnt going away any time soon
Whats crazy is last week, the DCT wasnt an amazing performance enhancement or the GT500, 500lb heavier but 80 more hp meant the demon was still waaay faster. aftermarket radials on a demon were still "stock".. so the 500 was a bust
now the c8, BASE C8 that IS NOT doing sub 3 0-60, is going to rape a gt500 because it has DCT, down 500lbs, and only down 240hp..and it will run low 10s with a stock radial..
I swear some of you will argue with a wall.
I cannot afford either new presently so therefore I can't have an opinion on either (/sarc)
Keep doing what YOUR doing guys. ;D
...and Maximus said to Commodus, "the time for honoring yourself will soon come to an end."

sorry guys, its more than a few HP to get that #, and performance costs money.. especially when the "list goes on and on:"
When will you talk about the different amateur drivers driving the cars on different days in different conditions?
Not to mention a repaved track that has made the track significantly faster...
LL has no bearing accurate capabilities of any car, it’s even worst when try to compare multiple cars.
Again it’s different amateur drivers driving on different days with different conditions. LL has zero accuracy for the true capabilities of the cars performance.
yea, i was on page 10 and didnt see yall on page 27. you guys are almost as fast as the base C8
Fine... a few hp plus 2.... I don't think anyone is saying a base or z51 is going to beat a gt500 in a straight line, 0-60 yes, but I think any model gt500 will pull either base or Z51 c8 in a roll or by the end of a 1/4. The Z51 C8 should be toe to toe with the carbon track pack around a track.
So much butthurt in here being displayed by the bleeding blue bios. LOL
He lives in NYC. If he farts too loud while driving a cuckmobile, the NYPD will cite him for a loud exhaust. Before too long, it'll be like the UK. Oi mate you have a loisence for runnin' ovah 50 donkey-thrust?

GM Explains How It Kept The 2020 Chevy Corvette Under $60,000
One of the greatest mysteries surrounding the 2020 Chevy Corvette is how, exactly, General Motors was able to keep its starting price under $60,000. The current C7 Corvette Stingray, this generation’s entry-level offering with 455 horsepower (339 kilowatts), starts at $55,900. And yet, according to GM, the C8’s starting price could be within a stone’s throw of the C7. Motor Authority, also curious about the mental mathematics needed to justify the low starting price, asked GM how it kept the price so low.
General Motors president Mark Reuss told the publication the automaker would spread out the C8 Corvette’s cost over an expanded future lineup. Just like the C7, the C8 will have a “portfolio” of models. The new 2020 Corvette Stingray is just the beginning. Rumors of a hybrid and plug-in model are already swirling online. And there are rumors GM could expand the Corvette model into a brand with a sedan, SUV, and Corvette-based Cadillac offering. That’d be one way to spread development costs. Reuss also pointed to GM’s new Global B electrical platform as another reason for the price.
