I disagree. The corvette looks like it's super-well-sorted and arranged. I didn't detect a lie anywhere around that. That's a 200 MPH car all day with that setup. Not overbuilt. Just a purpose built machine who can do other things. Just like the Hoonicorn was.

It's honestly the car. The 240 has a 650lb motor over the front axles of the car, and probably makes a weight balance of 65/35, while the Corvette has a 440lb motor sitting behind the front axles, with a perfect 50/50 weight balance.

You're not wrong but the way a turbo car quickly spools up power would make it very difficult to modulate power and keep it right at the edge of available traction. A NA car is much easier because the power doesn't spike up like that. I used to own a C5 and I just love a NA LS, almost electric power delivery.
