You mean comparing the M8GC which weighs 1300lbs more and is faster isn't a fair comparison all because AWD?

Power to weight is real and the #a don't lie.

According to GM the Z06 running a 10.6 with a 2.7 0-60 means it's likely struggling on the back half and based on the time and weight roughly at 3500lbs puts only about 580 at the wheel which is about 15% parasitic loss.

I'm just saying the math doesn't lie and if I were a Corvette lover the current C8 Z51 pack running a 10.9-11.1 is just fine and not making much less power compared to the Z06.

Add some FI and winner winner.
