Yea, its a rare/lucky opportunity. Im very tired but may be sucked into a 2 hour "endurance" race this weekend after I thought I was done for the year.46 days. I’m jealous.

I think you have it backwards. the C8 with a 0-60 under 3 seconds with more weight where it matters. C8 will kill GT500s on the street. unless your talking highway pulls.The GT500 will definitely best a C8 on the street, but on a track it will lose. Also feels way easier to get into a C8. I can option one exactly how I want it, whereas Ford dealers laugh at me when I ask about GT500.
I saw words of “like the GT2RS” which is highest of high praise.In my simple view of the world, a 75K car should outperform 60K car..
Saw a 300k Bentley at the track not too long ago getting its cheeks clapped by literally everything else that was there. So that logic doesnt work at allIn my simple view of the world, a 75K car should outperform 60K car..
Guess it depends whos driving... The C8 ran 11.3 so far and tons of guys also running the same in the 500. What was the DA for the motortrend C8 drag test? Obviously the C8 will get raped from a roll.I personally don't think the C8 will be close to the 2020 GT500 in a quarter mile.
Not even close.
(I'm talking stock for stock, tires and all.)
Hi Kaneda, now bye again.The GT500 will definitely best a C8 on the street, but on a track it will lose. Also feels way easier to get into a C8. I can option one exactly how I want it, whereas Ford dealers laugh at me when I ask about GT500.
Hi Kaneda, now bye again.
To a certain extent.Really?? lol he's a resourceful one aint he??
LOL265hp gap lol
Is anyone really surprised?
The Z51 C8 is 65k and the base GT500 is 73K. Not sure were you went to school but from where I'm from the difference is 8k not 20k.The problem with that statement is dollar for dollar the vette will be likely 20k less then even a base GT500. So for the average person who isn’t going to track the car or need to utilize optimal performance the GT500 is still not a considerable “bargain car” at least out of the two.
ADM, it’s been well documented and stated the GT500s will be carrying an ADM so I’m factoring that in as a realist.The Z51 C8 is 65k and the base GT500 is 73K. Not sure were you went to school but from where I'm from the difference is 8k not 20k.
Realist I see... You do realize many people are getting these at list?ADM, it’s been well documented and stated the GT500s will be carrying an ADM so I’m factoring that in as a realist.
people will pay it and that doesn’t at all mean the GT500 isn’t still a bargain as it will punch above its class BUT for what most people will use either car for the vette still is the better bargain.
Keep in mind only a small populace of buyers actually road course their cars, most just bench race magazine stats are local cars and coffee event and do small hits on the street while out.
