    I have seen several tests with the C8 stingray beating the 500, mainly because of its superior traction from the launch. Rolling start it always will lose. The Z06 is a different beast. Its going to be it regardless. Power to weight and better traction.

      Corvette always performed well on a drag strip . Some years it was the faster car than most others . Corvettes are light and it helps them out in straight line performance. The only real competition for the vettes in the past was the AC Cobras ,GT 40s ,GT Ford and more recently the Vipers , I always considered these to be track cars . And they are all bad ass in my book . Comparing “muscle” cars to any of them ??? I’m just not in tune with that . I mean I see guys building 2,500 hp Donks that kill hellcats , ZL 1 , GT 500 , .

    I think a very important consideration is the temps, and track conditions - they were a MAJOR factor and it is hard to compare between your GT500 runs and your C8Z Z07. The base C8 leaving your GT500 shows that traction is critical for the C8 or C8Z - and you just didn't have it. I don't know if the GT500's you raced were on DR's? I am guessing the modified GT500 had to be. Add the unremoved front splitter, down planes, and that rear wing on your Z07 - and that is a HUGE difference. I will go out on a limb now and state two things; with better temps and track conditions - your Z07 will trap near 160 MPH. Second - a standard lesser aero Z06 will trap 160-163 MPH in the 1/2. I am sure you help us out to find out if I am right...Great channel and content as always Austin - as a soon to be C8Z owner - THANK-YOU!

    • @alanjohnson911

      The big thing everyday commenting seem to ignore is the immense weight difference between the GT500 and the C8 an C8 Z06. 500 lbs is huge, it will take quite a bit more horsepower to move the GT500 than it will the Z06. So in that respect the Z06 has an big advantage and being mid engine gives it another big advantage when it comes to hooking up the power to the pavement.
      So a stock GT500 if it runs neck and neck with the Z06, that is pretty strong. Again the Stang has 150 more hp, but it is also packing an extra 500 lbs., in the racing world that weight difference is staggering
