C8Z06 is nowhere near close to C7ZR1 in terms of high speed acceleration. They are not even in the same zipcode. Let me know when a stock C8 Z06 goes north of 190mph in the standing mile.

I call BS on that. C7ZR1 will do north of 190 in the standing 1/2 mile. Several forum members have done so.

I'll put it out like this. C8Z and the upcoming C8 ZR1 need to hit their VMAX @ top gear. Then and only then are you and others going to experience what really is a hard acceelerating car.

Lol Im actually surprised it hung out as well as it did given the gearing in the C8Z is idiotic to say the least. C7Z w/ A8 will obliterate one period!
