Soon as I saw the Colorado sign at the beginning I knew the C8 was gonna get spanked vs the forced induction ZL1. Altitude kills naturally aspirated cars’ performance, as can be seen by its 110 mph trap.
Those ZL1 Camaro's are badass, I pretty much like all of the newer muscle cars that have come out in the last 10 years or so. If I had to pick just one, I like the ZL1. Ever since the 6th gen came out the ZL1 has been at the top of my list.
Elevation kills horsepower on naturally aspirated engines like the C8’s, while forced induction engines like the ZL1 won’t take that hit. At 5800 feet, which is the elevation of Bandimere raceway, the Corvette would be down 86 hp, or 17% off of its rated horsepower.
Why are so many people confused. 1) Bandimere +8000 DA. Cost a NA car a second from sea level. 2) Vette has street tires. He wasn't a JA that rolls through the burnout box and carries water to the line. He went outside did a quick clean and staged.
He probably had a plenum cover for the root style blower. That’s what I had on mine and it made the blower 4x louder didn’t increase power at all. Look up NX meth injection cover lt4. I planned on adding meth in future but never did and sold the car.
Once the Camaro gets a good launch, it was all over for the vette. That's why vette guy didn't gun it. (As seen by the 110mph trap speed. Even at that altitude the vette should've ran 116mph).
I was thinking this is the slowest C8 times I’ve ever seen posted. But I see that they’re racing at a track that is a mile above sea level where a naturally aspirated engine (C8) would making a good 30% less power than at sea level. A Car with a blower (ZL1) will win that race every time even though it go smoked on the tree by the C8, the power robbing high altitude was the deciding factor in this race. Bring them back down to sea level a try it again.
@@williama3665 Oh don't kid yourself. New Corvettes have never been priced for middle class. GM can say whatever they want but "affordable" is a relative term. That is why the Camaro exists.
I love how ever body wants to race the base stingray in cars that are obviously not base cars with blowers and they think they have a accomplished something. Try racing the C8 Z06 things will be different. For that matter a C7 Z06 would blow the doors off a ZL1 Camaro.
@@bman99ss you generally do a dry hop after the burnout to test traction... The c8 stock does not need to do this on a prep track with stock power levels, the car hooks on the street no issue what's the point of the dry hop...
That ZL1 has lower times in it. Even on street tires. I raced a C8 Z06 recently only reason I beat him is he botched launch control. Gave me a 0.8 second lead, and there wasn't enough road to close the gap. While he pulled 11.2 I pulled a 11.8. Don't get me wrong, looking at the time slip he closed that gap the entire length of the track. He just needed more length to pass me. I know that ZL1 has more in it than this video shows.
C8 has 495 hp rated from factory most likely less than that at wheels, while ZL1 has 650hp 650 ft lbs of torque less at wheels but still almost over 200hp more, almost same weight Camaro a little heavier but still light, of course ZL1 will win. How ever if both had same amount of power and torque C8 would smoke the Camaro by far
That's understandable. Be glad that at least 1 time Camaro won the Corvette. Especially soon there will be a version of the Z06 and ZR1, and the seventh-generation Camaro may not have. At least with an internal combustion engine.
Re altitude in Colorado, regarding that single point, the supercharged Camaro would retain its sea level performance and the normally aspirated corvette would lose approximately 5" of manifold pressure, which will hurt power output some. Is some specific enough?
@Sean Not necessarily. If the blower/turbos can move enough CFM then they can maintain sea level-like numbers. Increasing air volume is kind of their entire purpose.
I’ve raced so many zl1 in my c8 and blown the doors offs the cam. The c8 hooks and should have been down the track before the camero. But the camero got this one.
Its true that vette should have pulled a car length in the first hundred ft but both cars have broken into the 10's completely stock but under optimal conditions. The ZL1 will still take 9 of 10 races on any given race day. That being said, on the streets the C8 is a absolute murderer from stoplight to stoplight.
I have been in the passenger seat of my son’s C8 and witnessed first hand getting the best of a ZL1(stoplight to stoplight). Guess the altitude nerfed to C8 but at 600’+/- sea level where I live this was not the outcome. Side note, my son has preordered a C8 Z06, can’t wait to see the performance of the Z06
Lol. Some of yall trying to understand how elevation affects times; but are too dense to understand that there is a 150hp deficit to begin with. C8 has no chance past a few hundred feet. The ZL1s HP will reel it in. Sea level or not.
Looking to trade in my 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Widebody for a new one however, Dodge ended production and have canceled thousands of orders that were on the books. I can get one off a dealer lot but picking are slim. The leftovers are not the color or options I want for $100,000. 2024 ZL1 Camaro is my next everyday driver for $20,000 less.
I don’t know why people drag race corvettes, they have never been drag cars, they are Road course cars that there designed application. Not apples to apples. Camaro and a Challenger is apples to apples.
Someone teach the camaro owner basic track etiquette. He is dragging water down the track every pass. You don't roll through the water box unless you are on slicks and skinnies which he is not.
Stock C8s up here in Colorado trap between 108 and 110. Kinda sad my 06 C6 Z06 went 12.6 @116 bone stock with a toyo proxi tire. D.A. was 8000 feet that night.
You have a C6 ZO6, you should know that your car is putting out nearly 100 more horsepower than that C8 even if those altitudes, plus you're lighter. So of course the c6 z06 going to outperform the C8. Nice car though.
At pretty much the same price point the camaro wins. But the fact this is the entry level vette.... i say less. Basically camaro maxed out whereas the vette still has models to go.
The Vette killed the Camaro on the tree so the driver did his job. It’s not possible to drive the 100 plus HP the naturally aspirated lost because they’re racing on a track that’s a mile above sea level, engines with blowers don’t have that problem.
I only have a C5 but I still think it looks better than the C8,, and I definitely would take that Camaro over that C8,,,I HATE THE LOOK OF THE C8,,, after I pay off my new2023 Trail Boss, I’m selling my C8 and buying a C6 Zo6

This is Colorado right? That means they are at 5000 feet elevation. The forced induction car would have a huge advantage here. At sea level they should be pretty even.
I get this drag strip is at high altitude but even so these cars all stock generally run 11.40s -11.60s pretty easy have seen them run all stock 10.90s the higher altitude l can see adding 3 or 4 tenth or 11.90s -12.0s not 12.70s l don't know what the malfunction is but 12.70s are not typical times for a new C8 even at higher altitude maybe at 14,000 feet above sea level
No it is the altitude 100%. DA here averages over 8000. It is pretty standard that a NA car looses a full second here. Forced induction vehicles not as much. No air... No power. Just how it is.
@@Chris-ng6kn My stock Scat Pack could barely squeeze a 13.8 out on a 9,000 DA day at Bandimere...Dash showed 13.9 because it only has one number behind the decimal so it rounds up...in Greeley, which is about 1,000 feet lower it shows 13.2...so at sea level it should be about where Dodges says it should be...every NA car loses ET up here. I don't know why no one believes us.
@@Tommy1198S Well if you watched the race the reaction time of the Vette IMO was actually better than that of the ZL1 driver. So a lack of reaction didn't come into play here. As far as experience goes sure I'd agree with that. All things being equal someone with more experience will most likely have better reaction. Again I don't think that came into play here. The ZL1 has a better power to weight ratio and that's why he won.
I would have been surprised if the C8 won, even though the Camaro was on drag radials and the c8 on street tires but still, the power difference was enough for the Zl1 to win

No it is the altitude 100%. DA here averages over 8000. It is pretty standard that a NA car looses a full second here. Forced induction vehicles not as much. No air... No power. Just how it is.
@@Chris-ng6kn My stock Scat Pack could barely squeeze a 13.8 out on a 9,000 DA day at Bandimere...Dash showed 13.9 because it only has one number behind the decimal so it rounds up...in Greeley, which is about 1,000 feet lower it shows 13.2...so at sea level it should be about where Dodges says it should be...every NA car loses ET up here. I don't know why no one believes us.
C8 needs a driver upgrade, also the ZL1 has more hp.
C8 is an automatic, what kind of upgrade do you expect? How much skill do you need to have to push the gas pedal to the floor?
+-*@@Blakehenry11-- Reaction time and experience bud.
@@Blakehenry11 tell me you know nothing about drag racing without telling me you know nothing about drag racing
@@Tommy1198S Well if you watched the race the reaction time of the Vette IMO was actually better than that of the ZL1 driver. So a lack of reaction didn't come into play here. As far as experience goes sure I'd agree with that. All things being equal someone with more experience will most likely have better reaction. Again I don't think that came into play here. The ZL1 has a better power to weight ratio and that's why he won.
@@princekatana8792 Drag racing?? Is that what you call this?
WTH is under that ZL1 lol. I used to own a 2018. They are good just didn’t think that good.
ZL1 wins........Until the roads start curving back and forth.....and until the FI engine gets hot.....
This goofy thinks the zl1 can't hold its own in the curves in this day and age. 😂
The camero design better than the vetts
There is a reason why the ZL1 needs a supercharger...ijs. 4000 lbs..
I would have been surprised if the C8 won, even though the Camaro was on drag radials and the c8 on street tires but still, the power difference was enough for the Zl1 to win
Can we find people that know how to drive
12.71 N/A vs supercharged Camaro
Driver error 😂. A stock c8 can and will run 2.6 60ft and a 10.78 quarter. Do your research!
Wow thats really hard to believe.
Don't worry,the ZR1 C8 will be out soon🫡🤣
BRB looking for see ZL1 😂😂
Stock vs modded. Neat.
The C8 👀 wow really. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Are we just assuming that these cars are stock?
Running stock times so yes.
