That vette just sounds absolutely amazing, especially that supercharger whining. I love it, and nothing beats the sound of a good old American V8.

Throttle House just uploaded a race between the Cybertruck tri-motor and a corvette z06. That’s what Hennessy should be doing.

[@chrismanning1171]

Yeah, I saw it, and the Z06 got beat from a dig by the cybertruck. So a SC or TT stingray should be able to beat a C8 Z06.

[@hmarroquin6240]

From a dig, I don’t think so. I think it will be an even race with the Cyberbeast. This is not a prepped surface.

[@RadiationNetwork]

Neither will the Cybertruck. It's amazing how gullible people are that buy into fake news that has already been proven wrong. Look up rail dust it's just small specs of "external" contamination that comes right off and happens to brand millions of new white clear coated cars. Heck Telsa has a 12 year unlimited milage anti rust warranty. Look it up. Time to drink your copium,.

[@RadiationNetwork]

@PC-iv5so sadly there are so gullible people like you that believe any story regardless if they have already been proven to be false. Why don't you spend 2 minutes and learn about 'rail dust' and how that's what those specs of brown were and how it's external iron specs landing on the cybertrucks during transport. It comes right off and the same thing happens to brand new white cars. Besides go read the warranty on Tesla's cybertruck it covers rust for 12 years and unlimited milage.

I have come to realize that Hennessey is in the business of selling their vehicles, not in hosting real races. Their is no way that 700 hp corvette beat an electric vehicle off the line. I love Hennessey cars, but I never trust their comparison videos.

[@chrismanning1171]

Z06 almost beat a cybertruck. So a supercharged C8 as we see make since to beat a cybertruck.

[@tyronhanberry3024]

@chrismanning1171 Not off the line brother. That requires instantaneous torque. So unless they are running NOS off the line instantaneous torque is not achievable without some LAG. If the corvette Z06 gets smoked off the line and only wins in a rolling race, I do believe that these results are valid. I have no dought it could beat the cybertruck in the 1/4 especially when the Cybertruck is limited to 114 mph, but off the line from start to finish is suspect.

[@DragonKnightX12]

​@@tyronhanberry3024You don't need instant torque, just need enough power to pass it. There's plenty of built gas cars smoking the Plaids without nitrous.

[@tyronhanberry3024]

@DragonKnightX12 That corvette supposedly had 700 hp thus there is no way it had enough torque off the line without a major crutch. You are right that their are many specially built cars, with over 1200 hp, that can beat the Plaid, but none beat it off the line like we saw in the video especially none with only 700hp.
