C8 Corvette Reveal

You got style, bruh!

 

Buddy picked up an Ecoboost F150...he's happy. Says a tune will make more power than what comes in the Raptor.

 

I looked at an Escalade ESV while killing time one day. Holy f@ck, as if the standard esclade wasn't huge enough, they go an throw another 20 feet on the back.

The standard was cool but not $98K neat.

 

Yeah that's nice, how would you like to work on one, what's the maintenance cost for the long haul.

 

I can't wait until I have to something more serious than change an air filter on my 6.7 diesel. I can barely get to the fuse box let alone change a fan belt.

 

Sounds like you need a more creative accountant, like some other series.

So the C8 with the Z51 package is faster 0-60 than the c7 Z06. Damn.

 

Weight in the back means traction.

 

Read it again...

 

That why PAWGs are popular.

 

"In the same section with the drag-strip numbers, figures are broken out for the entry model and the Z51 package: 0 to 60 mph takes 3.0 seconds with the entry-level model, 2.9 seconds with the Z51 package. The 2019 Corvette with the Z51 package took 3.8 seconds to reach 60 mph, the C7 Corvette Z06 with the eight-speed automatic and Z07 package took 2.95 seconds, and the the C7 Corvette ZR1 needed 2.85 seconds."

What am I missing? Isn't 2.9 seconds faster than 2.95?

 

I have a corvette killer right in front of me. Be for sale soon if anybody has deep, deep pockets.

 

You can buy a Corvette AND a high-end Porsche for that kind of money.

 

So what happens when you tune the raptor?
