Even from the burnout and lineup you can see the C7 driver knows what he's doing more than the other. Shows how important the driver actually is more even than the car itself.

Remember everyone, all of the C8 videos you're seeing is just a base C8 Stingray vs the higher end of other cars, ie Hell cat, gt500, ZL1, etc. Once that Z06 drops, it's going to murder the game stock for stock.
@EagleScoutmano
@EagleScoutmano Жыл бұрын
high revving, high HP, low torque engines (which it is) usually aren't especially good for launches/racing. The Z06 isn't going to be that much faster than the older Z06 (barring whatever benefits launch control provides). Expect perhaps 1/2 a second quicker, but basically the same trap speeds.

@@mrmete you have not provided any sort of counterargument whatsoever. In general a 600 HP car with 750 lb/ft of torque is faster in acceleration than a 600 HP car with 450 lb/ft of torque. While there are some cars which buck this trend, it doesn't invalidate it. Also, 670 horsepower isn't all that much more power than 650 is, and there's very little fundamentally different about an FMR vs an MR layout, for performance purposes.

I have owned and have run a C7 Z06 and a C8 at Bandemire - 6,000’ elevation. I ran a 11.2 in the Z06 and a 12.5 in the C8 with full launch control. Boosted motors aren’t affected by altitude like NA motors are. About a 20% drop in hp (down to 400 from 495) on the C8 while maybe a drop of 30 hp down to 620 hp on the Z06.

I'm a fan of all these cars, but this video is biased against the C8 Vette. Only 1 of the C8s were using the launch control (its primary weapon). You can't compare 650 supercharged hp to 495 n.a. hp without the weaker engine having a couple advantages (like mid-engine AND an amazing launch control). As shown with the 1 C8 that was using launch control (hear the engine revving before the start), it was MUCH quicker off the line, increasing the time for the 155hp more powerful car to barely reel it in. Impressively quick for having less than 500hp.

There are two ways to look at this: Either from a purist point of view and based of power alone . Or. If there are other tricks in order to compensate like mid engine and launch control. Both are viable because both are valid solutions for the same problem. The real test is around a track under the same conditions. Launch control is only good once the launch is over but the extra power will dominate the longer it remains active, then there is handling, traction, aero, the transmission, center of gravity and even the quantity of fuel both cars can carry into consideration. This is one generation to the next with a while different approach. No bias here, simply different mentalities.

Ima guess the C8 is going to get off the line first but the C7 is going to catch up and finish it Edit… the first C8 didn’t take off quote like other C8s have.. did they not use the launch control.? Edit again, the second race is what should “always” happen. The C8 has a great launch control? It’s what keeps it on the board compared to everything else. But, since it’s the base model, having the lower HP it just can’t keep up at the end of the track. It should take off great - better weight balance and launch control. Then get passed, as it’s “lacking” HP.

The C8 in 2024 is finishing with a ZR1 AWD hybrid Twin Turbo with a 5.5 flat plane crank 800 hp That will be the last , fastest, and Quickest stock corvette ever made. then there going to all electric.like the C7 the ZR1 will end the C8 the same way.

It’s nice 😊 2 see the C7 Corvette rwd beat the C8 Mid Engine. I can’t understand why GM couldn’t make 2 Corvettes. The Mid Engine C8 made in limited numbers which is called Zora and the C7 live on modified

Why is the c8 so expensive but easily gets own by other cars like Mustang gt500, c7 corvette ? They just selling you the looks and because it’s a mid engine car

Personally, I can't live without a Proper 3rd Pedal 6 Speed Manual Transmission . I would take a C7 or a GT350 any day. If the C8 or GT500 cost $50,000. I would spend $20k or upto $80k for the 6 Manual Transmission. I lived for 7 years with my 2016 Performance Pack Mustang. Never again. 🙋👍🏎🏁 This proves a less restricted Manual Transmission is Faster. Porsche Cayman 6 speed in Road course beat an M4 Competition Automatic Transmission By 0.4 of a second. Allows Redline. 2 weeks ago I Bought the only White Mustang with a Proper 3rd Pedal 6 Speed Manual Transmission in California 🙋👍🏎🏁 good share

I get that altitude makes a difference. However, a 12.7 is REALLY bad! People have done 12.7 seconds for the 1/4 mile in STOCK Kia Stingers. I would at least expect the Corvette to stay in the 11s no matter what the altitude was.

reading the various educated comments here tells me dont by into all the C8 hype and stupid rip offs in price. I had a 21 corvette HTC . just a regular car enthusiast and have had many sports cars . I had 2 encounters on highway strait away with Ford Rapter and Landrover supercharged SUV . both stayed right with me in fact slightly ahead up to 110 at which point I said ain't worth the ticket great cars but not at 10, 20, 30k over sticker.

@@ShinyBlackRims It's a car designed for very high-performance and to go over 200 MPH. Not all supercars are designed to rival other supercars. The C8 was made for aerodynamics and high-performance.

@@shawncrawfordamerica1776 the C8 Stingray does not have high performance compared to Lamborghini, McLaren, or Ferrari. That is why it's not a supercar. It's a premium sports car. Most of its performance metrics are marginal improvements over the C7 stingray. The only thing it does a lot better is 0-60, but that is due to being mid-engine. C8 does not get 200 mph top speed. It does not have the power or aerodynamics for that. The Z51 package actually lowers the top speed. I'm a Corvette guy myself, so I can't believe you're claiming any of what you said.

what I don't like about these videos is a lot of these cars aren't stock, so it's pointless whether it's a 2020 vette or a 2012 camaro like none of that sht is relevant once people start modding. So no point saying it's x car vs y car...doesn't matter if it's a minivan if it has a different engine, twin turbo, and all this other sht done to it

I happen to own both a C7 Z06 and a C8 Z51 they are totally two different animals. The C8 is not a down turn in design. The mid engine car was a must to compete with the Euro supercars. Once the C8 Z06 and ZR1 are out it will be a different ball game. Stock Stingrays are just base cars it ridiculous to compare them to the top configurations of the other cars.

The current C8 is the base model, stingray. Just a NA V8 The two C7 we saw were Z06, which are supercharged V8s. I personally think it’ll be a fairer comparison to see base C7 vs base C8 Then C7 Z06 vs C8 Z06 But what do I know? I just like cars go vroom!
