That is the correct answer if you can afford two.

If I didn't have my AWD Porsche 911 Turbo S I would have the C8Z and the E-ray.
If I can only choose one it is the C8Z for the engine and its...

Codes were U1611, U1818, and P0EFF
I did not shut the car off and they scanned the car also.
I then shut the car...

The Dragy has shown consistent data to a dragstrip timer, many people have run at the strip with the Dragy on and the results are always less than 0.1 difference in the 1/4 mile.

You should use the lower Dragy times with rollout included as the Magazines and Dragstrips do, even so the PDR is wildly optimistic

I wouldn't want to attempt to beat a McLaren from a roll in anything, they are absolute beasts bone stock, I still wouldn't want one.
Once they release a C8 with the C8Z engine and AWD I will be in...

I've never called BS on anybody, just stating the proven fact that the PDR is not accurate.
Keep in mind I've probably owned more Vettes than most on this forum, it's not like I am not a fan of the...

I have been preaching this since I bought my 1st C8, but it falls on deaf ears.
My C8 Z51 always said 2.8, and that was on 3.3 0-60s according to my Dragy.
My C8 Z06 best on so far in cold weather,...

I must have skipped ahead, I thought you were running street tires at the track, probably wouldn't have made much of a difference on a prepped track.
I am very interested in how it would hook on the...

Great runs!

Seems the car is a consistent 10.6 car.
1.5 60' is great.
Saw another guy post 1/4 miles in his e-ray, same exact time and mph as yours on a prepped strip.

How does the launch...

1.548 is a great 60' time, I would love to see how it does on unprepped streets.

My best in my Porsche 911 Turbo S on unprepped streets with 560 treadwear all-seasons is 1.61 60' leading to a...

I have not had luck getting diminished value in the past.

Hope it works out for you.

More important, hopefully you get the car back soon and enjoy the heck out of it.

When I am out of work I will listen again, if it is louder than the regular C8 Z51 that would be a good thing.

How does the car sound volume wise?
I remember being very disappointed with the lack of volume in my previous 2023 C8 Z51 HTC with the NPP exhaust.

The C8 Z06 is plenty loud, I even use Tour mode...

Can't wait for some of your performance tests.
I am sure you have a Dragy, your videos are very informative.

Your C8 Z06 videos were very helpful to me on using launch control.

I hate seeing people get all insecure about their cars, we buy them for a reason, to enjoy them.

Some guys, like me, love the sound and feel of the car more than anything, for us the C8 Z06 is the...

I did not have it on my 2023 C8 Z51 and scraped badly every time I went in or out of my steep driveway at my shore house and my driveway at work.

After 500 miles the simple answer is you can run the car to redline at WOT.

I wouldn't do launch control until after 1500 miles.

That is my opinion also.
Especially with the C8 transmission problems, my 2023 C8 Z51 was Lemon Lawed.

I now have a 2024 C8 Z06 and I love it.
It has thrown 2 CELs in less than 2 months.

I would never go back to a regular C8, but maybe an E-ray for winter use. I wouldn't trade the C8Z for an E-ray, but if I wanted 2 Vettes, the C8Z and E-ray would be cool.

I would never buy any C8 used after my experience with my New 2023 C8 that got Lemon Lawed.
A warranty is all well and good until your car is in the shop 4 months and you are driving a Chevy Trax

For the type racing I do (rarely) the E-Ray would be perfect.
I am sure with traction the Z06 will beat the E-ray from a highway speed roll, but at...
