That Z06 is a terror. Wow! Even with the 2nd race and the 500 jumping, the Z0^ still out the 500 down. This U-Turn race adds a new dimension for real world performance.

@@YusufSayed-px2xy oh yeah the edge is definitely in favour of the Corvette but mustang didn't lose that bad. Now I wonder if it was a rolling race would it be different cause that launch on the Vette is crazy
@@cliffordhaines6495 the vette would lose the rolling race. The mph shows that. That's not what it was made for though. Neither of these cars are made for that.
@BB-pg5kl no... that's because they didn't lower the tire pressure to 24psi like the GM manual says when tracking them. Auto journalists are required to run door panel psi recommendations which is 35psi, and it beads the tire to have safer traction in rain and the slick portion of the tire stays lifted off the surface. It hurts launch, braking, and cornering performance
Did anyone check that the vette is 2X the price? What do you expect? For $5K the GT500 is 900 hp or more. Better tires. Try again and have $70K left over
Agreed. This was unfair to the mustang. If you're gonna race a chevy you should have the chevy suspension upgrade on the mustang. You do know that the CFTP magneride was developed by GM for cadillac? In the early 90's.
@@dallasfrost1996”same outcome probably“ mofo ain’t got no reading ability and pretending you’re spitting out the truth. We are talking about a “fair game”, dodge fanboy rooting for Chevy today
You guys should really consider doing a series like Hoonigan's This vs That with the U-drag and modified cars. This is so much more interesting to watch than a straight drag! 👍
Great comparison that I was expecting !… I know it’s not easy, but would have been fair to race a ZO7 with a trackpack GT500… or a base ZO6 with this GT500.. I don’t say it would have changed results..But the gap for sure would have been smaller…🤷♂️. Congratulations, this U-Drag is a must in my mind to compare cars..😊👍👌
Crazy how the gt500 trapped 132 mph in the quarter! That’s insane, also it’s the second fastest top speed car on the leaderboard! Should’ve started the race rolling because I have a suspicion the gt500 could keep up. Congrats ford
Lol the z06 literally trapped 131 and change. There’s not much of a discrepancy there. Why can’t ford guys ever take an L gracefully. Suddenly wanting to change the format for the whole race to suit the gt500 is hilarious.
Exactly!!!😂 Just be a Car enthusiast!!! And give credit where it's do!! Chevy knocked it out of the park with the C8Z06!! It's a Phonemanel Car!! Period!! It's like they're always moving the Goalposts!! Lol!! The GT500 didn't win so all of a sudden the format should have been a "Roll Race"!!! Lol!!
Before I get into the main subject here, let's give credit where credit is due: another most excellent video. Great camera placement, impeccable editing, great sound, entertaining (sometimes hilarious) comment, and a professional handling and delivery of a subject matter which is not easy to capture in video. Hats off to your entire team. On the actual subject, I must disclose I'm a hardcore GM guy: I have right now in my garage a 4gen FIREBIRD, a 5gen CAMARO and a CHEVY SUV. Having said that, while I'm elated and impressed by the CORVETTE demolishing performance and consistent results, I do acknowledge the victory of the pony car in this contest. True to its roots as an affordable high performance steed with a somewhat accesible price range; an authentic contact sport athlete which put up one serious fight; the contender punching above its weight class. The C8 Z06 VETTE is, in its own right, a legitimate world class, top tier super sports automobile. It delivered results according to its pedigree and exotic car status. For about half the price, and much lesser mechannical complexity, the MUSTANG SHELBY GT delivers above its price range and fulfills all the high and exacting expectations set up for it. Delivered stupendous results which, under other conditions, can be improved upon - that is the most impressive issue here: these results are not the absolute capabilities of the car. It's quite a car... no, it is a huge lot of high performance auto for the money. And that makes it a deserving winner in any objective and impartial contest or comparison. Again, thanks for an outstanding and entertaining presentation.
The biggest advantage is the engine weight over the rear tires. I have the new Z06 and would gladly own the GT500. The sound and looks of the GT500 are awesome in person.
In the C8 you can look back into the engine bay. I work part time in the service department of a Chevrolet dealership as a car runner. Yesterday was my 3rd time parking a C8. It’s basically a gokart with a body on it. Visibility is poor especially to the right and rear, your eyes aren’t much higher than the top of the front fenders but I’m sure it would fun on the road or a track. If I’m having a day in which I’m feeling stiff it’s a challenge to get into and out of.
The Camaro tends to launch better on unprepped surfaces. Also tends to achieve higher G's as well. I wonder how close it would be with the GT500 vs the ZL1 1LE.
I'm always amazed a Mustang is compared to a Corvette when Ford still has an actual mid-engine car that truly competes with this generation of Corvette. I honestly thought the Corvette would beat the Mustang in Lbs/Hp, turning Gs, and braking.
Z07 package vs CFTP is what we need. Or base vs base. Not 100% fair here but good race. Truthfully the CFTP GT500 vs the base Z06 is actually the comparison that’s closest in terms of MSRP
What we need is the Camaro ZL1 1LE vs the GT500 CFTP or Base ZL1 vs Base GT500 in this same format and see how it shakes out!! Mustang vs Corvette two cars in two totally different categories.
Lol imagine thinking that some nicer aero and spoilers would make any difference in the outcome. The GT500 is only good for Highway pulls. It can’t compete with the Z06 when you have to actually start, stop and turn.
@@GinNBoost Lol imagine thinking the Z06 with carbon fiber wheels and bespoke tires wouldn’t have an advantage. CFTP would have less rotating mass, better braking, better turning, better acceleration, better grip/traction than this base model. Who’s talking about aero? 🥱
To your point, we would've loved to have a Carbon Fiber Track Pack car to use, but the GT500 is already out of Ford's fleets and is no longer readily available. We had our long-term GT500 that we owned that doesn't have the CFTP, so it was this or nothing. Honestly, I wouldn't expect for the end result to change given the gulf between these cars.
The Z06 has a strange issue with its brake by wire system where it can sometimes misjudge its needed pressure, until GM fixes that with a software update the only fix is turning ABS off. A lot of us on the track have seen the issue but it's quite rare
The Mustang and the Vette are not in the same class. I'd like to see the Ford GT vs the Vette. The U drag is brilliant. There should be a series for this! No question the GT500 is amazing.
Great content!! A better match for that vette was a CFTP GT500 - would have pulled an easy 1-1 5 second quicker with way more downforce and stickier Cup 2s!!
Think you Edmunds, for finally pitting these two stock cars together, I hope this will finally settle the argument. What's so scary is there are two faster Corvette that's in the works. The mighty ZR1 and the Zora.
great video but my feedback. you should've got the gt500 with the carbon fiber track package as it has better aero and tires which would def help for this. and instead of a gt500 you guys could've done a c7 zr1. i think that could've been an interesting comparison
@@halow4that's only the manual ZR1, The auto ZR1 walks the GT500. Horsepower obsessed raced his manual Zr1 against a C8 Z06 and they were neck and neck with the ZR1 having a slight edge. The auto has an extra gear and shifts much faster, and it has a shorter final drive ratio for better acceleration
All that Aero hurts the cars straight line performance. That large wing is creating unwanted down force on the straights. The non Z07 package, would've pulled away from the GT500, even harder.
@@gaddyify that is true although the track pack also gives it better tires, more downforce, and seat removal. i think it woul've performed better with those since its not like its a top speed run
They may technically be different classes, but we still felt it was an interesting race given that the Corvette is down on power (670 vs. 760) compared to the Shelby while weighing a few hundred pounds less. You never know!
They never will. Jason Cammissa started this Corvette vs Mustang junk and you tube ran with it. The Camaros on track are monsters, but lose in acceleration simply on Horsepower.
Having a 2020 Gt500 CFTP. One thing Ive learned is don't use the launch control, its a joke ! Just have to learn how to launch it As for the Z06 I love the car. Just not the crazy markup Im seeing . Here in Cincinnati Ive seen dealers asking 200,000.00.
Took Chevy long enough to "take down" a 4200+lbs GT500, in a U-Drag races of course 😂 Now do a proper roll race or a drag race and we'll def see that GT500 towing that Corvette to the junkyard 👏
Congrats to the Z06, but that GT500 is so impressive! A RWD heavy muscle car keeping up with the Z06. I would like to see a ZL1 1LE comparison in this format though.
@DJUNKNOWNxx Don't forget the Z06 has a weight advantage of around 400 lbs. That along with the mechanical grip being that it's mid engine makes a HUGE difference.
Both cars are bad ass but between two im taking Z06 all day everyday. Mid engine, top down driving when you want it, damn good at the drag strip or road course. Also nice interior and sound
Not sure why anyone wouldn’t expect the Z06, especially with the Z07 package, to win this type of a race. It has much faster real world 0-60, it’s lighter and handles better. Shelby is a tiny bit faster at higher speeds but that’s about it. I wonder how the CFTP GT500 would do, even though if I’m not mistaken you guys put Cup 2s on this orange GT500. Pretty sure it’s going to be the same result. Cool video though!
to be fair, z07 has extra downforce so in drag races that hurts the top end but the carbon fiber wheels would help in drag but the extra arrow not so much.
@@arbiter1 the braking and the turning is everything. The zO7 is a huge advantage. The GT500 Carbon Track Pack is much lighter then the gt500. Rear seat delete. Carbon fiber wheels. GT500 CTP comes with cup 2s. The aero definitely helps. The 1/4 is important but not nearly as important as everything else. Not a hater. Doesn’t change the fact that the zO7 wins easily hands down. It changes the fact that the Gt500 ctp would run a faster time and move up in that ranking maybe. At the very least hold a firm spot in the position. I own both Gt500 ctp and zO7
Can we please see the GT500 with the track package? It would only be fair to get a C8 z06 with the z07 package but the GT500 is only a base. With the track pack it has lighter wheels and weighs less, and has better stickier tires
I was hoping you'd get the GT500 with the Carbon wheels. Would definitely make a difference. Not sure if it'd be enough but would be a closer race. Also a roll race would be nice since that's the race 80-90 percent of these cars cars will be seeing on the highway..
@@danielallen7384 The Carbon package on the GT500 also includes stickier tires (Michelin Pilot sport Cup 2) which would also help with launching. Which is where the Z06 got away from the GT500...
@fnfastone the Sport Cup 2's are great tires, got them on my c6 Vette now. The Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar EMT's were worn to the cords @ 13,000 miles, and that's with "0" track time. The factory toe-out/camber set-up is for track use, that kills them quickly.
This is an awesome way to showcase every aspect of a car. Lets the cars with raw power shine and also exposes weaknesses. Id love to see you guys run a final run that is the same format but start from a 30-40 mph roll right from the beginning to eliminate all wheelspin.
On the old course, before y'all lengthened it (I think), both the C8 Vette and Caddy CT5-V Blackwing ran a 31.4 but I'd love to see @Edmunds bring the Caddy back for a re-run on the longer course.
Love the u-drags. In this case, it would have been more apples to apples to run the CFTP version of the GT500 (with carbon fiber wheels, wing, etc) vs the Z. Would love to see that match up. Regardless, both the GT500 and the Z are monsters. 👍🤟
Since you guys had the Z07 package, you guys need to get the GT500 in the Carbon Track pack package instead of the carbon fiber handling package because the Corvette going against the Mustang already isn’t fair, and they corvette had the best package the car has to offer.
You guys never make the match up even… if you guys get a Z06 with Z07 package why not get a GT500 with Track pack? Won’t help the straights but cornering would be mikes better and would probably be a better race.
@@realdeal7188 not so much the wheels but the Cup 2s would have been a little quicker braking and cornering I think. The Corvette Z06/Z07 is surely an awesome machine and I would love to own one and park it next to my GT500 CFTP. The future is bright.
@@dj2livinginwheeltime265 I had them both 2022 shelby gt500 CFTP white w/kona blue race stripes and I currently own a 2023 Z06 3lZ hypersonic grey non Z07 aero with carbon wheels the Vette is on a whole different level the sounds it makes and the fit and finish toped off by its wicked acceleration is truly amazing.
The gt500 is an awesome car I can truly attest to that. It pulls harder than freight train and the cftp makes it even more exotic but the vette is just different these videos do it no justice trust me.
The Gt500 is 96k(without the track pack). The Z06 with the Z07 package is 160k. I’d take the Shelby with back seats and is more useable for everyday driving
From what I know base model GT500 is around $75k-$85k, Carbon Fiber Track Pack is $100k+, and I'll take that GT500 as well, I'm not paying 6 figures for a Chevy
You're just making numbers up as you go along. I looked at the shelby when they first came out. Was $168k so $50k over sticker. I wouldn't pay over sticker for any car. The window sticker on the Z06 is under $130k. Fools wanna pay $200k for the Z06. Compare the window stickers. The Z06 beats the million dollar Ford GT to death. Explain that.
I wanna see The E Ray go up against The C8 Z06! I think no one really shows this yet to keep the over inflated value up for the Z06 because the E Ray just may give the Z a spanking surprisingly, that extra 135 pound/feet of torque gotta go somewhere 😅😊
Took me 3 years to significantly improve traction in my 850bhp 10R80 mustang GT. Only when I changed the diff centre to a wavetrac did it change the dynamic of the car. It’s far superior to the torsen that’s in the GT500.
The real competition for the GT500 is the Camaro ZL1 1LE but this was nice to see, we’d like to see the real competition for the Z06 the Ford GT?! 😳🤷🏽♂️

Love catching these races, this was a great match up. Would love to see a side -by-side roll race after the U -drag just to see how they compare with the launch taken out of the equation

Zl1 is a track monster. Corners baby!!
That Z06 is a terror. Wow! Even with the 2nd race and the 500 jumping, the Z0^ still out the 500 down. This U-Turn race adds a new dimension for real world performance.
Be good to see the braking stats as well, like if it was possible to see entry speed at the braking cone and how much they’ve slowed down by the turn. This is such a good series hope you do looooooads more of it.
YES been waiting for this! Great race! I knew Z06 would edge it out but man GT500 gave it a great go at it, love that car.
Front engine vs mid engine
@@YusufSayed-px2xy oh yeah the edge is definitely in favour of the Corvette but mustang didn't lose that bad. Now I wonder if it was a rolling race would it be different cause that launch on the Vette is crazy
@@cliffordhaines6495 the vette would lose the rolling race. The mph shows that. That's not what it was made for though. Neither of these cars are made for that.
@BB-pg5kl no... that's because they didn't lower the tire pressure to 24psi like the GM manual says when tracking them. Auto journalists are required to run door panel psi recommendations which is 35psi, and it beads the tire to have safer traction in rain and the slick portion of the tire stays lifted off the surface. It hurts launch, braking, and cornering performance
@@YusufSayed-px2xy doesnt matter the amg gt bs is front engine and would win
Did anyone check that the vette is 2X the price? What do you expect?
For $5K the GT500 is 900 hp or more. Better tires. Try again and have $70K left over
The GT500 beats a TON of cars that are double its price.
Same outcome probably, but seriously you guys couldn't get a Gt500 track pack to go up against a Z07 package?
This GT500 is their own long term unit. It has been tested numerous times in the last 3yrs.
@@voodoodiecast Oh, ok. I understand. So, they needed a Z06 non Z07 then. I see what you’re saying.
Agreed. This was unfair to the mustang. If you're gonna race a chevy you should have the chevy suspension upgrade on the mustang. You do know that the CFTP magneride was developed by GM for cadillac? In the early 90's.
Sure, though the Z06 would still win.

I don’t say it would have changed results..But the gap for sure would have been smaller…🤷♂️. Congratulations, this U-Drag is a must in my mind to compare cars..😊👍👌
Crazy how the gt500 trapped 132 mph in the quarter! That’s insane, also it’s the second fastest top speed car on the leaderboard! Should’ve started the race rolling because I have a suspicion the gt500 could keep up. Congrats ford
Lol the z06 literally trapped 131 and change. There’s not much of a discrepancy there. Why can’t ford guys ever take an L gracefully. Suddenly wanting to change the format for the whole race to suit the gt500 is hilarious.
Exactly!!!😂 Just be a Car enthusiast!!! And give credit where it's do!! Chevy knocked it out of the park with the C8Z06!! It's a Phonemanel Car!! Period!! It's like they're always moving the Goalposts!! Lol!! The GT500 didn't win so all of a sudden the format should have been a "Roll Race"!!! Lol!!

I like the way y’all do your races with the roll,u turns , and switching cars/drivers,etc…
I agree. It keeps things fair especially with the driver swap.
Before I get into the main subject here, let's give credit where credit is due: another most excellent video.
Great camera placement, impeccable editing, great sound, entertaining (sometimes hilarious) comment, and a professional handling and delivery of a subject matter which is not easy to capture in video. Hats off to your entire team.
On the actual subject, I must disclose I'm a hardcore GM guy: I have right now in my garage a 4gen FIREBIRD, a 5gen CAMARO and a CHEVY SUV.
Having said that, while I'm elated and impressed by the CORVETTE demolishing performance and consistent results, I do acknowledge the victory of the pony car in this contest.
True to its roots as an affordable high performance steed with a somewhat accesible price range; an authentic contact sport athlete which put up one serious fight; the contender punching above its weight class.
The C8 Z06 VETTE is, in its own right, a legitimate world class, top tier super sports automobile. It delivered results according to its pedigree and exotic car status.
For about half the price, and much lesser mechannical complexity, the MUSTANG SHELBY GT delivers above its price range and fulfills all the high and exacting expectations set up for it. Delivered stupendous results which, under other conditions, can be improved upon - that is the most impressive issue here: these results are not the absolute capabilities of the car.
It's quite a car... no, it is a huge lot of high performance auto for the money.
And that makes it a deserving winner in any objective and impartial contest or comparison.
Again, thanks for an outstanding and entertaining presentation.
The biggest advantage is the engine weight over the rear tires. I have the new Z06 and would gladly own the GT500. The sound and looks of the GT500 are awesome in person.
We all knew how this would end but we'd love to watch it anyway🤘
In the C8 you can look back into the engine bay. I work part time in the service department of a Chevrolet dealership as a car runner. Yesterday was my 3rd time parking a C8. It’s basically a gokart with a body on it. Visibility is poor especially to the right and rear, your eyes aren’t much higher than the top of the front fenders but I’m sure it would fun on the road or a track. If I’m having a day in which I’m feeling stiff it’s a challenge to get into and out of.
The Camaro tends to launch better on unprepped surfaces. Also tends to achieve higher G's as well. I wonder how close it would be with the GT500 vs the ZL1 1LE.
even though the gt500 is faster, a camaro like u said is not only is very good at launching, but also handles very well so itll prolly win.
@@ishnoorbabra3793 Camaro ZL1 1LE 7:16 ring time says it all.
@@bob-qi4nr Not really considering the GT500 hasn't been to the ring yet.
@@burgerbandit3646 Will never happen
@bob-qi4nr Not officially atleast.
I'm always amazed a Mustang is compared to a Corvette when Ford still has an actual mid-engine car that truly competes with this generation of Corvette. I honestly thought the Corvette would beat the Mustang in Lbs/Hp, turning Gs, and braking.
Z07 package vs CFTP is what we need. Or base vs base. Not 100% fair here but good race. Truthfully the CFTP GT500 vs the base Z06 is actually the comparison that’s closest in terms of MSRP
What we need is the Camaro ZL1 1LE vs the GT500 CFTP or Base ZL1 vs Base GT500 in this same format and see how it shakes out!! Mustang vs Corvette two cars in two totally different categories.
Lol imagine thinking that some nicer aero and spoilers would make any difference in the outcome. The GT500 is only good for Highway pulls. It can’t compete with the Z06 when you have to actually start, stop and turn.
@@GinNBoost Lol imagine thinking the Z06 with carbon fiber wheels and bespoke tires wouldn’t have an advantage. CFTP would have less rotating mass, better braking, better turning, better acceleration, better grip/traction than this base model. Who’s talking about aero? 🥱
@@DBABAE your response sounds like major cope. The Z shits on the GT500. Get over it. But for $150k it better.
To your point, we would've loved to have a Carbon Fiber Track Pack car to use, but the GT500 is already out of Ford's fleets and is no longer readily available. We had our long-term GT500 that we owned that doesn't have the CFTP, so it was this or nothing. Honestly, I wouldn't expect for the end result to change given the gulf between these cars.
The Z06 has a strange issue with its brake by wire system where it can sometimes misjudge its needed pressure, until GM fixes that with a software update the only fix is turning ABS off. A lot of us on the track have seen the issue but it's quite rare
have you had track time in the c8 z06?
Awesome video guys. I own the GT500 Heritage Edition and have a ZO6 HTC on order. Two of America’s best!
Good to see American cars using the dual clutch technology!
Z06 was always going to win but the GT500 ran it far closer than it should. Superb result.
That race wasn't even close. Can't wait for the ZR1 and Zora.
Handling pack vette vs base Shelby. The vette won the launch ONLY !!
@@arkhsm 🤣🤣🤣🤣
80k base gt500 was much closer than I thought it would be. Give ford performance an extra 50k to shave 600 lbs off and this would be a different race
@@abz5485 That's not even the top teir Corvette, that title belongs to the ZR1 and Zora.
The Mustang and the Vette are not in the same class. I'd like to see the Ford GT vs the Vette. The U drag is brilliant. There should be a series for this! No question the GT500 is amazing.
That Z06 is fast! But the Gt500 got the top speed by more than 3 mph!! True American juggernauts!! Great video guys!
U-drag is a whole different level of drag racing and pushing the cars to the to max
Z06 twice the price of GT500. Yeowch. But agreed, no one loses, (buy stock in Shell and Exxon)
Great content!!
A better match for that vette was a CFTP GT500 - would have pulled an easy 1-1
5 second quicker with way more downforce and stickier Cup 2s!!
Love this format!
We'd like to see a Nismo GTR vs Corvette Z06
Think you Edmunds, for finally pitting these two stock cars together, I hope this will finally settle the argument. What's so scary is there are two faster Corvette that's in the works. The mighty ZR1 and the Zora.
This is not a stock zo6. Stop with the nonsense
@@kalgstol You got to be a 13 year old? So Edmund use a modified Z06 against the GT500, lying and stating its stock??? Troll go away.
@kalgstol it literally is
They aren't suddenly comparing modded vs stock cars
great video but my feedback. you should've got the gt500 with the carbon fiber track package as it has better aero and tires which would def help for this. and instead of a gt500 you guys could've done a c7 zr1. i think that could've been an interesting comparison
I agree 100 percent. Ive seen both the c7 zr1 and gt500 drag race on the street and they are neck n neck with the zr1 barely edging it above 160-170
@@halow4 yea it would be a cool comparison of "old" vs new
@@halow4that's only the manual ZR1, The auto ZR1 walks the GT500. Horsepower obsessed raced his manual Zr1 against a C8 Z06 and they were neck and neck with the ZR1 having a slight edge. The auto has an extra gear and shifts much faster, and it has a shorter final drive ratio for better acceleration
All that Aero hurts the cars straight line performance. That large wing is creating unwanted down force on the straights. The non Z07 package, would've pulled away from the GT500, even harder.
@@gaddyify that is true although the track pack also gives it better tires, more downforce, and seat removal. i think it woul've performed better with those since its not like its a top speed run
Two different class of vehicles...cmon lol. Bring out the Camaro ZL1 for the stang gt500
Otherwise, great video.
They may technically be different classes, but we still felt it was an interesting race given that the Corvette is down on power (670 vs. 760) compared to the Shelby while weighing a few hundred pounds less. You never know!
They never will. Jason Cammissa started this Corvette vs Mustang junk and you tube ran with it. The Camaros on track are monsters, but lose in acceleration simply on Horsepower.
I agree with you but you must admit the gt500 took a big leap in performance its just the c8 took a big leap in performance too
Maybe I missed it, but I would like to see the U-DRAG race between a Base GT500 like this vs a Redeye Challenger, two very comparable cars.

As for the Z06 I love the car. Just not the crazy markup Im seeing . Here in Cincinnati Ive seen dealers asking 200,000.00.
More U-Drags! Please!
Man, that C8 Z06 is a monster! Can't wait to see what the C8 ZR1 will do.
Apparently gonna have 800 or so hp and 700lb of torque
It's refreshing to see two people treat each other with respect and be agreeable and humble.
Took Chevy long enough to "take down" a 4200+lbs GT500, in a U-Drag races of course 😂
Now do a proper roll race or a drag race and we'll def see that GT500 towing that Corvette to the junkyard 👏
A base c8 whooped that ass,save it fordtard
It’s a NA car lol. Also that gt500 wants no part of that corvette on a road course either. There is more to a car than just going in a straight line.
that land yacht gets confused when it sees the slightest corner
Congrats to the Z06, but that GT500 is so impressive! A RWD heavy muscle car keeping up with the Z06. I would like to see a ZL1 1LE comparison in this format though.

@DJUNKNOWNxx Don't forget the Z06 has a weight advantage of around 400 lbs. That along with the mechanical grip being that it's mid engine makes a HUGE difference.
did we watch the same video? the gt500 did not keep up with the c8 z06 lol
@@Sithene ONLY off the line mate; after that the vette was humbled, LOL !!
Love the U- drags , keep that coming
Both cars are bad ass but between two im taking Z06 all day everyday. Mid engine, top down driving when you want it, damn good at the drag strip or road course. Also nice interior and sound
Not sure why anyone wouldn’t expect the Z06, especially with the Z07 package, to win this type of a race. It has much faster real world 0-60, it’s lighter and handles better. Shelby is a tiny bit faster at higher speeds but that’s about it. I wonder how the CFTP GT500 would do, even though if I’m not mistaken you guys put Cup 2s on this orange GT500. Pretty sure it’s going to be the same result. Cool video though!
Agreed. Carbon fiber wheels, track pack adjustments would have helped it slow down, speed up, and take that corner much better
Hats off to the Zo6 zO7
to be fair, z07 has extra downforce so in drag races that hurts the top end but the carbon fiber wheels would help in drag but the extra arrow not so much.
@@arbiter1 the braking and the turning is everything. The zO7 is a huge advantage. The GT500 Carbon Track Pack is much lighter then the gt500. Rear seat delete. Carbon fiber wheels. GT500 CTP comes with cup 2s. The aero definitely helps. The 1/4 is important but not nearly as important as everything else.
Not a hater. Doesn’t change the fact that the zO7 wins easily hands down. It changes the fact that the Gt500 ctp would run a faster time and move up in that ranking maybe. At the very least hold a firm spot in the position.
I own both Gt500 ctp and zO7
Can we please see the GT500 with the track package? It would only be fair to get a C8 z06 with the z07 package but the GT500 is only a base. With the track pack it has lighter wheels and weighs less, and has better stickier tires
It would have been nice if they both were their respective carbon fiber track pack variants….
Still won't make a difference, 400lbs and mid engine is still physics that lighter wheels can't fix.
Same results, slightly quicker time overall. Basically no difference, so no point.
Corvette in its own league now
Why GT500 didn’t used carbon fiber track package.Let the GT500 vs ZL1 and Hell cat
Honestly not bad for a car that is 40k+ less than the ZO6!
I was hoping you'd get the GT500 with the Carbon wheels. Would definitely make a difference. Not sure if it'd be enough but would be a closer race. Also a roll race would be nice since that's the race 80-90 percent of these cars cars will be seeing on the highway..
Agree carbon fiber wheels are game changers, Z06 would’ve still won but by lot less
Carbon wheels aren't going to give you a full second lol.
@@danielallen7384 The Carbon package on the GT500 also includes stickier tires (Michelin Pilot sport Cup 2) which would also help with launching. Which is where the Z06 got away from the GT500...
@fnfastone the Sport Cup 2's are great tires, got them on my c6 Vette now.
The Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar EMT's were worn to the cords @ 13,000 miles, and that's with "0" track time.
The factory toe-out/camber set-up is for track use, that kills them quickly.
@@danielfair4675 I had my alignment adjusted for straight line racing. Since I don't do much cornering I wanted to get more miles out of the tires.
This is an awesome way to showcase every aspect of a car. Lets the cars with raw power shine and also exposes weaknesses. Id love to see you guys run a final run that is the same format but start from a 30-40 mph roll right from the beginning to eliminate all wheelspin.
Yes my favorite car ford shelby gt500 forever👍😎😊
People were hating so hard in the mid-engine Corvette, but not anymore. I hardly ever see a purist complaining anymore.

Ps today is my birthday and this was the best present!
These videos make me happy as my z06 goes into production as we speak! Damn i can't wait to own this monster!
Are you getting yours with the Z07 package?
@@skylerallens No just the base 1LZ.
On the old course, before y'all lengthened it (I think), both the C8 Vette and Caddy CT5-V Blackwing ran a 31.4 but I'd love to see @Edmunds bring the Caddy back for a re-run on the longer course.
Is it me or did I not see the rolling start part of the show that's mentioned in the description???
The "roll" is considered to be the return trip. It's not a true rolling start.
Love the u-drags. In this case, it would have been more apples to apples to run the CFTP version of the GT500 (with carbon fiber wheels, wing, etc) vs the Z. Would love to see that match up. Regardless, both the GT500 and the Z are monsters. 👍🤟
And rear seat delete as well, I thought I should mention this because it cuts the weight from 4200+lbs to 4000+lbs
Since you guys had the Z07 package, you guys need to get the GT500 in the Carbon Track pack package instead of the carbon fiber handling package because the Corvette going against the Mustang already isn’t fair, and they corvette had the best package the car has to offer.
Chevy 💪
You guys never make the match up even… if you guys get a Z06 with Z07 package why not get a GT500 with Track pack? Won’t help the straights but cornering would be mikes better and would probably be a better race.
Ditto. CFTP would have been the better matchup.
i know the z06 needs a super charger to get the same power cuz NA vs SC is not the same hah
I am sure the top of the line Corvette Z06/Z07 would still win, but you guys should at least have the CFTP GT500 instead of the base model.
The aero or carbon wheels wouldnt help at all its the weight difference and the gearing of the corvette that makes it so dynamic
@@realdeal7188 not so much the wheels but the Cup 2s would have been a little quicker braking and cornering I think. The Corvette Z06/Z07 is surely an awesome machine and I would love to own one and park it next to my GT500 CFTP. The future is bright.
@@dj2livinginwheeltime265 I had them both 2022 shelby gt500 CFTP white w/kona blue race stripes and I currently own a 2023 Z06 3lZ hypersonic grey non Z07 aero with carbon wheels the Vette is on a whole different level the sounds it makes and the fit and finish toped off by its wicked acceleration is truly amazing.
The gt500 is an awesome car I can truly attest to that. It pulls harder than freight train and the cftp makes it even more exotic but the vette is just different these videos do it no justice trust me.
Gotta see the Z06 or a future ZR1 vs the Ford GT 🔥
The Gt500 is 96k(without the track pack). The Z06 with the Z07 package is 160k. I’d take the Shelby with back seats and is more useable for everyday driving
It is about a 25% difference in price between base cars.
From what I know base model GT500 is around $75k-$85k, Carbon Fiber Track Pack is $100k+, and I'll take that GT500 as well, I'm not paying 6 figures for a Chevy
@@cleverusernamecl5532 not between the base Shelby and Z07 package. That’s a big price difference
You're just making numbers up as you go along. I looked at the shelby when they first came out. Was $168k so $50k over sticker. I wouldn't pay over sticker for any car. The window sticker on the Z06 is under $130k. Fools wanna pay $200k for the Z06. Compare the window stickers. The Z06 beats the million dollar Ford GT to death. Explain that.

I wanna see The E Ray go up against The C8 Z06! I think no one really shows this yet to keep the over inflated value up for the Z06 because the E Ray just may give the Z a spanking surprisingly, that extra 135 pound/feet of torque gotta go somewhere 😅😊
Eray is slightly faster 0 to 60 but I don't think qtr is any faster an its heavier with worse suspension an brakes than the z06
The z06 would destroy it in braking and cornering. But the driver can probably make the difference.
