800hp C7 Z06 Walks Away From Brand New Ferrari 488

We build an 800 hp package on a black C7 Z06 and stumble upon a Ferrari 488 while out street tuning.

LMR has been in the game so long. They’ve always made clean factory looking setups that hurt feelings. Love the build. 🤘🏼

[@ChuckBeefOG]

LMR got me into cars on KZbin in like 07-08 with their blue C6 they built at the time that was just an animal. That car will still probably wreck 90% of C7 builds.

I strongly doubt the 488 driver was embarrassed. I have a 2019 GT3RS, and I'm fully aware there are plenty of cheaper cars than can whup my ass in a straight line...especially modded ones. That's not why I bought it. Guys who are older and have the money for toys like this generally aren't dumb.

They ain’t dumb but they still can get embarrassed! 😳

[@xtnuser5338]

@@LILBANKSN502 I'm sure they can. But I'm telling you the likelihood of something like this embarrassing them is pretty low. The idea is that they would be embarrassed because somebody beat them with a cheaper car...like they were stupid to pay more for less performance. I'm telling you they already know this can happen, and choose the expensive car for other reasons anyway. I bought my expensive car for some specific reasons, and it's the best choice for me any my reasons. I'm fully aware that some cheap tuner car can kick my ass down the highway, and I don't care in the slightest. Having the race is fun, and if somebody beats me, more power to him.

[@1989rs500]

@@BrandonV6002 U people really don't understand how Ferrari, Lambo, etc work.. the mere fact that there wont be any customer for a 200k Chevy is what U must understand.. see these brands are aspirational ones..its not like they don't know how to make a Chevy Vette killer at a lower price.. if they start thinking like that pretty sure they ll do it in style.. too See they make these cars like that so that their value increase over time unlike Vettes, Camaros, Vipers, Mustangs etc whose value diminish over time.. I think Ford GT is a car that does appreciate over time.. rest all diminish.. its a business book.. not just a car. There are Audi RS3s with 2.5l i5s running low 8s in Europe.. so they need just 4-6 cylinders and small compact packages if they need high hp runs.. also I still think no US brand has true NA powerhouse like what Porsche has.. Porsche needs just 4000cc, 6 cylinders to make a whooping 520 PS with factory warranty.. GM needs 6200 cc to make that kind f power.. the day an LT or Hemi or Modular Ford motor is able to do that I ll acknowledge US engineering is brilliant.. but even now.. they are just mere competitiors.. no wonder Porsche, BMW, Audis etx ve absolutely no dip n sales despite C8s, Camaros and Mustangs charge.

[@johnperales5431]

my suggestion is for you to sell your customers 'real tires' with their builds ...I have noticed on a couple of your recent build videos, the tires were limiting the improved performance you provided your customers .A set of good tires are cheap compared to the sort of the work you are doing to these cars, and is probably just as important in the car's performance

[@Viper3048]

Absolutely! People underestimate the importance of tires when it comes to performance and handling.

[@replynotificationsdisabled]

Sad you even have to announce this

[@Ditmanppi]

@@Viper3048 I’m sure in most cases customers get whatever tires they suggest when they get their cars back home. A lot of them come from long distances. Wouldn’t make much sense to buy expensive new tires and then put a bunch of miles on them just getting it back home.

Love it! BUT, which car would lap a circuit faster? Which handles corners better? It’s a huge distinction to consider. I have no idea. At least I could (theoretically) own the Vette! I’m impressed.

[@Hey_Blinkin]

The Vette has magnetic suspension (technology invented by GM and "borrowed" by Ferrari.). It also has giant 13" brakes, sometimes ceramic, dry sump, thirteen different coolers, and massive rear tires. This thing was MADE for the track, hence the roots blower instead of a turbo. I'm not sure this Ferrari would keep up on a track either. At one point, the Z06 was the sixth fastest car around the Nurburgring. Obviously that was when it came out, but impressive none the less. The Vette is a true sports car in every sense.
