It was a 1 mile track. The race took 20 seconds. Which is why that was BS. And that GTR wasn't stock, LSUTurboTiger. It was putting out 120HP more than stock.

Either way, the Vette would still have lost at the end of the 1/4, but should have KILLED the GTR at the end of a mile.

Second video makes sense. The GT is about the same weight, but has over 300HP more. I think the stock GT would have just barely lost against the LPE Vette, but stock for stock, the GT would win I believe. I really like the GTs. My friend was about to buy one so I got to sit in it... Wow... I felt right at home in it.

Both are amazing cars. I wish I had either one!

Although, if I had the Z06... I would get a set of drag radials for the strip. TQ + RWD = spinzzzz

Yeah, the NEW Corvettes are coming with launch control. I've watched the launch control work, and I'm very impressed.

Nice vid. The Vette is clearly the faster car by a good margin as you can tell by how much ground it made up in a short time. Vette blew the launch and the GTR raped it off the line. Top end is all LPE Vette. Im sure some of you have seen what a bonestock Z06 does to a bonestock GTR from a roll. Not close especially after 1/4 mile.

This Z06 makes 670 vs the GTR's 550. Much greater hp gap than stock so no brainer as to which is the faster car given equal launches. Plus the Vette is over 700lbs lighter. Its no knock on the GTR fans. Its an incredible car and doesnt need defending as everyone knows this but there are tons of cars out there faster than it in the straights. Not that many faster in the twisties though
