And on the track GT350R already beat the GTR GT500 just destroys it I’m sure. As far as the C8 If it doesn’t tie I’m sure it’s faster than the GTR. On most tracks. Gtr is only better to 60 that’s it

8:45 I'm just a robotic programmer and this is what I gather from the quote : Electrohydraulic shift mechanism = The shifting is made directly by an electric component insted of using the differance in pressure to make a shift .It's much more precise and faster. You can even program it to burn the clutch so slowly that the driver would not notice if you want to. Energy-efficient = need less electricity to work low-leak solenoids = less loss of pressure wen activating , thus it's even faster and more precise. TL;DR : it's faster and more programable than normal DCT.

Ryan Hammonds I agree with you, but I feel these times aren’t relevant. They’re two different people driving two different cars comparing times.

Matt M I’m actually a corvette fan but this is the very same dilemma that the front engine vettes were in, the mid engine cars would always do a little better because of their design but the vette was always in the hunt. As far as overpriced last c7 Z06 or ZR 1 was running the same price so really don’t know what your talking about. They took a top level mustang and compared it to the base vette. That’s the equivalent of someone taking the base c7 stingray and putting it against a 458 .

You can even program it to burn the clutch so slowly that the driver would not notice if you want to. Energy-efficient = need less electricity to work low-leak solenoids = less loss of pressure wen activating , thus it's even faster and more precise.
