Just wait until y'all see a review video about the next step above the Z06, the C8 ZR-1 (1,064 hp). Then in a yr after that, we get the C8 Zora (1,200+ hp).
Even as a guy who loves cars, and fast cars...idk why anyone would want that much horsepower. It's just a dick swinging competition at that point. I've driven cars in the 500hp range and that was MORE than enough. And they were AWD, not RWD so the power felt much safer.
@@willvr4 Because for some people, once you try 500hp, you wanna try 600hp. Then you wanna go to 700, then 800, and so on. Plus, it's nice to be able to pull away from 1,000HP+ street cars casually on the highway.
That 8th gen corvette is a masterpiece of American engineering. Every time I see on in Dallas, I do a double take and have to remember what i'm looking at.
When the 2020 C8 (8th Gen) Corvette came out, you would go to these car shows and meet-ups, and there'd be all these exotic cars there, right? Lambos, Ferraris, Porsches, etc. But as soon as a new C8 drove up everybody flocked to it. Because it's been one of only new mid-engined American muscle cars in decades, if ever. The C7 was a pretty cool looking Vette in of itself, but the C8 is a whole 'nother animal.
On Misha Charoudins channel he got to drive a ZO6 on the Nurburgring, with heavy traffic, and was solidly impressed with the grip and high revving flat plane crank horsepower the car possesses, a true Porsche GT3 competitor. Then there is the newly arrived ZR1 that has yet to be publically tested for comparison videos. The same 5.5L flat plane crank, high revving motor with 2 turbos attached putting out 1064 HP is going to be QUICK, a Ford GT might have to regroup a bit. Supposed to run the quarter times in the 9 seconds ranges. No word on the cost, the dealer markup is going to be astronomical.
I saw the exact same corvette yesterday at the grocery store. I stood there and admired it. ive seen a lot of crazy cars but that Z06 is one of the most gorgeous cars ever.
I love ford gt’s one of my favs cars especially they old ones and love the story one making yall should watch the movie it’s a true story FordVFerrari is the movie
Those engines in those vette’s use flat plane crank V8’s, which is a super car trick for power and RPM. They are also hand built. Their launch control and traction control, all coming from GM, is among the very best there is. It was said back in the 90’s after it came out that a certain brand really fond of the color red from Italy approached GM for help with theirs, it’s that good. They sound weird to us, but damn mean.
The Italians did not understand the magnetic ride controls of the dampers and spring rates. All they knew was the straights they gained the advantage but on the twisties the Cadillacs were eating their lunch and had markedly better tire wear where they would eventually wear the tires off the red Italians and pick up the wins.
Neither car is designed for drag racing. The Z06 is completely track focused with lots of aero, like a Porsche GT3. The Ford GT was specifically built for Le Mans.
If he had used the “hybrid” vette he would have won the drag race. It’s called the E-Ray. It produces less horsepower but has a decent sized electric motor powering the front axle, which gives it an even better launch. The end result of those roll races comes down to a couple of things. First is turbo lag from that V6 versus V8 being N/A. Second I think guy in the Ford is way more of the designer than he is a racer.
When I was in high school my friend's dad rented out Route 66 drag strip so we could race our cars down the strip. He was a co-owner of auto performance shop outside of his other job and so all the mechanics from the shop brought their cars out and it was awesome. His dad got upset when my buddy took his 1200 hp Chevy Impala down the strip and blew the engine up. Lingerfelter installed his engine and signed the the inside of the dash. Buy one register it in Montana...no sales tax.
Those 2nd gen GTs I remember when they were new in dealership. My buddy and I went to one of our local Ford dealers to look at a truck he wanted and they had 2 of them there. I think the price was like $130k something like that. This was a good 20 years ago. Those cars now sell for a half million or so. Not sure how they even had 2 but that dealer had 2 of them unless maybe one was ordered and just not picked up yet.
Keep in mind the Ford GT is race prepped. The corvette is set up to be a daily driver with all the comforts of a normal street car. There are other Vetts that are way more serious but still normal street cars! check them out.
Check out the Cadillac CTS V. It has the same engine as the Z06 Vet. I have a CTS V with a mallet race package. 6 speed, Manuel. I've hit 176 mph with another gear left. It's both quick and fast.
The base C8 which looks exactly like that starts around $65K. Chevy wanted to make an affordable mid-engine car. Everyone that I have seen who has one loves it.
The ZR1 is THE BEST car on the market for what you get at the price point its at... There is no other car on the market that will give you over 1000 hp for less than 200k. Unfortunately dealer mark ups are going to kill that price point. But still amazing performance for the money
Looking at a slightl used Corvette C-8 2LT 495hp for $54,000. Cheapest super car ever! Bang for the Buck! Bolt on twin turbo packages that are complete and can be installed by the owner over a weekend. Yeah baby!
@@nouseforaname6846 Yes, but not in the mid to late 60's when the GT was initially developed. I'm not a Ford vs guy, I was just insinuating that these more modern GTs are loosely based on the old GT 40s and are more for show than go and the originals were originally designed to be GT racers to dethrone the European companies' stranglehold...Although they still go pretty good, they just don't have the hp or torque for drags. If someone offered me one, I wouldn't turn it down. Maybe you would because it sounds like you are a GM only guy or gal, but I wouldn't. Peace, Love!!
@@nouseforaname6846 Dude Ford's brand new race car in 2016 won it's class (GTLM) at Le Mans it's first time out and the other 2 GT's in 2016 finished 3rd and 4th.The difference is the GT is a purpose built endurance racecar that achieved what it was built for in a short period of time. The C8's have been somewhat successful so far but also race in multiple classes.
"I thought some turbo kicked in or something." Early in the video, and I think a second time but I'm not going back to check, when telling about the Vette the guy said it is "naturally aspirated." It's not a forced induction system, there are no turbochargers and there isn't a supercharger. --- Turbo-lag is a drag --- if you want forced induction go with a supercharger. There is no lag. Superchargers offer instant power delivery and providing immediate throttle response.
I had the factory Blower/Supercharger in my Toyota Tacoma with the V6. That thing would scream!!! I beat many a car who laughed when I wanted to race them. Like they say,He who laughs first laughs last.....
@@sidthiru1509 Z06 670 horsepower Zr1: 1050 horsepower Zr1 top speed 215 Z06 190-200 See the problem? So much difference in power but so little speed change. Even ford gt faster than that at 216 and carbon series reaching 220. And the prices going up. Pathetic. GM had so much talent and they dropped it for useless downforce that the new GTD will roast it in. Even my Chevy friends said it was mid or decent.
@@benjaminmatute9085The Zr1 can go faster than 215. They just stopped at 215, if you look at the videos the Zr1 could have gone more if they wanted to, and that's the one with the big wing. Non wing model will do over 215 easily.
Have you seen BoostDistrict videos with what they do with E Rays ? They have twin turbocharged one and it runs 9:38 quarters at 148 mph, and he is still dialing it in with low boost till he ups the ante.
If you're not tracking the car get the E-Ray!!!! It's only 1/10 a second slower in a 1/4 mile (128 vs. 131 mph) than the Z06, you don't plug it in, comes with all season tires and it's $5,000 cheaper. 'Nuff said!!
The base Corvette with the premium package #2 is considered the sweet spot and it costs under $100k. That’s the cost of a base 4 cyl Porsche Cayman. On the streets the Vette looks very sexy and muscular.
Headsets for the drivers and an independent person saying '3-2-1-Go' would be fair. OR do 1 race where the Vette driver says '3-2-1-' and 1 race where the GT driver says '3-2-1'. The person saying '3-2-1' or honking the horn 3 times ALWAYS has an advantage.
The fact the GT40 doesn't have a V8 is criminal and the ONLY reason I'd take the Corvette. Drop a V8 in the GT40 and it's not even a competition as to which one I'd take (if I could afford it).
Owned Corvettes since my 20's and havent looked back. That race between the ford gt and z06 didnt make sense considering the vette does 10.3's to 10.5's while the fords best has been around 10.7 . Many other z06 videos showing this. I was a mustang guy in high school and they will always have a place in my heart but was at the track racing and got destroyed by a vette. After that , i never looked back and have made sure my collection always has some vettes in it. Ive owned and own ferrari's , had a lambo , bmw's , R8 and dollar for dollar nothing like the performance and all around what you get with a vette. Doesnt need to be a new one. From the C5 z06 to the C6 z06 and zr1 , C7's and now C8's , they are amazing. Im trying right now to get in on the C8 Zr1 which might be tough because i passed on the z06 because for awhile the premium was just ridiculous what they were asking. Now, they are back to where they should be and many that had to have it took a hit of at least $100k. I like the guys from WOW ( in the video) but at times they can be bias. Seen it to often. They didnt even use launch control on the vette.
Imo, the older corvettes with rear engine placement had better, more intuitive handling than the mid-body engine models. And the increase in speed seems largely irrelevant without improved handling, which was excellently matched to power in older models.
That is funny because nearly every race driver says the C8 handles miles better, and puts down power more predictably. And the C8 has beaten nearly all of the C7 corvettes times trim to trim.
@@Loki_Trickster Yeah, the newer model is plainly a better performance car, just much less fun, imo, less intuitive. And on an actual road, that extra performance seems stupid to me, wasted potential that will never be used. If you're into the track, then sure, maybe, if you want to drop the extra cash. But then again, I have a friend with a cuda that he dropped a helicopter engine into, and a computer controlled pneumatic suspension. It runs on aviation fuel and will take most things in the quarter mile or on a track. And again, It's more fun than some finicky toy for rich kids. Personally, that car goes faster than I'm comfortable with even on a track, beyond my capacity to drive well. So to me, all that extra tech to go even further beyond is pointless.
@@willcool713 Except by all recounts you are wrong. The C8 is easier and more intuitive to drive. And on actual roads the C8 rides better, is better at handling modern traffic with dual clutch transmission. Outside of a normal manual gearbox its in every way the better performance and road car. And with basic alignment for purpose only widens that gap. And if your going to say performance is useless then why step outside of a Toyota corolla or a Nissan Versa? By that metric we should just compare the C8 Z51 package to C7 Z51 package. In which the C8 is a whole second and half faster zero to 60, Faster from 20-60, and quicker braking. Has better traction and better all weather performance, All of which benefits in average day to day driving. Oh, so your talking out your butt. Any helicopter engine your "friend" would be able to fit a Cuda hood/trunk space would be a civilian helicopter engine. And those barely reach 400hp. The larger engines wouldn't fit in the confined space of a Cuda without completely destroying its track capabilities and looks. And computer Controlled Pneumatic suspension.. Pneumatic is just air ride nothing special, you can find that in budget Mercedes from the 70's that would fit that description. Hell buick had self adjusting Air ride in the 50's. Magtech suspension available on GM products for decades now is far more advanced changing the fluid viscosity of a oil fill suspension which can instantly change the handling characteristics vs waiting for a solenoid to change air pressure.
Please react to the FP700 F-150 4wd single cab. This ford performance fp700 f-150 supercharged v8 goes for under $50k in the US and can smoke a Lamborghini
Yeah no way that Ford GT is worth a million dollars more than a Z06😂😂 plus the Z that has all the comforts. The GT may be a little quicker but not nearly quick enough to warrant that price difference.
You have to see the Haulcat Dodge Ram 1500 vs Tesla model S p100d Dodge SRT-10 viper truck Ford SVT F-150 Lightning Twin turbo F-150 4x4 single cab Dodge Ram 1500 single cab 4x4 with a hellcat engine
I don't know what you mean, they are made in USA so they are her then go there to Europe second. The guy with the Ford GT said it was highly modified, he mostly meant the body and paint, wing and stuff but you know he added a little something to the engine.

The corvette is the best affordable car fr that can whoop super cars
The new Corvette ZR1 is the same engine with dual turbo chargers. It has 1050 horsepower
The zr1 has a new LT7 not an lt6
They’re not the same engine the zr1 is a lt7
Agree with the other two posters, while the engines are based on the same thing, they had to change some major parts for the addition of the turbos.
@@BlackSmokeDMax yeah I saw it was called LT7 and simply it was the same engine with turbos added
It's also 1,064 HP.

Corvettes are made about 80 miles from me in Bowling Green Kentucky. They have an awesome museum for visitors.

In the U.S.,a base Stingray starts around $70k. But,a Z06 starts around $110k. I have a 2024 Stingray that cost $90k.
Might as well spend the extra pennies and went to Z06 sir you was about their far as it go for price
@@MarioBryant-ur8gg A build similar to mine in a Z06 would be about $140k USD. That is more than pennies....
The only thing they didn't mention, which I found a bit odd was the top speed of each vehicle.
Turbos are far better than a supercharger.....I have a supercharged cobalt ss and a golf tsi turbo.
I prefer the older Corvettes with front engines and the over all design.
Still, i would take the Vette over the Ford every time 😎
Headsets for the drivers and an independent person saying '3-2-1-Go' would be fair.
OR do 1 race where the Vette driver says '3-2-1-' and 1 race where the GT driver says '3-2-1'.

And on an actual road, that extra performance seems stupid to me, wasted potential that will never be used. If you're into the track, then sure, maybe, if you want to drop the extra cash.
But then again, I have a friend with a cuda that he dropped a helicopter engine into, and a computer controlled pneumatic suspension. It runs on aviation fuel and will take most things in the quarter mile or on a track. And again, It's more fun than some finicky toy for rich kids. Personally, that car goes faster than I'm comfortable with even on a track, beyond my capacity to drive well. So to me, all that extra tech to go even further beyond is pointless.
@@willcool713 Except by all recounts you are wrong. The C8 is easier and more intuitive to drive. And on actual roads the C8 rides better, is better at handling modern traffic with dual clutch transmission. Outside of a normal manual gearbox its in every way the better performance and road car. And with basic alignment for purpose only widens that gap.
And if your going to say performance is useless then why step outside of a Toyota corolla or a Nissan Versa? By that metric we should just compare the C8 Z51 package to C7 Z51 package. In which the C8 is a whole second and half faster zero to 60, Faster from 20-60, and quicker braking. Has better traction and better all weather performance, All of which benefits in average day to day driving.
Oh, so your talking out your butt.
Any helicopter engine your "friend" would be able to fit a Cuda hood/trunk space would be a civilian helicopter engine. And those barely reach 400hp. The larger engines wouldn't fit in the confined space of a Cuda without completely destroying its track capabilities and looks. And computer Controlled Pneumatic suspension.. Pneumatic is just air ride nothing special, you can find that in budget Mercedes from the 70's that would fit that description. Hell buick had self adjusting Air ride in the 50's.
Magtech suspension available on GM products for decades now is far more advanced changing the fluid viscosity of a oil fill suspension which can instantly change the handling characteristics vs waiting for a solenoid to change air pressure.
Please react to the FP700 F-150 4wd single cab. This ford performance fp700 f-150 supercharged v8 goes for under $50k in the US and can smoke a Lamborghini
Thats all motor agasint turbo.... corvette is by far best motor
We all want one
You DON'T brake until you pass the end.
Ford Gt's are another more rare.. that's why it's way more expensive
Did u ever hear about brake boosting it helps alot 😂😂😂
React to the Texas Hennessy venom f5 car review.
Yeah no way that Ford GT is worth a million dollars more than a Z06😂😂 plus the Z that has all the comforts. The GT may be a little quicker but not nearly quick enough to warrant that price difference.
You have to see the Haulcat Dodge Ram 1500 vs Tesla model S p100d
Dodge SRT-10 viper truck
Ford SVT F-150 Lightning
Twin turbo F-150 4x4 single cab
Dodge Ram 1500 single cab 4x4 with a hellcat engine
Corvette is the fastest USA car made. So the Ford is only like that in Europe. I never seen one of those in the USA at all.
I don't know what you mean, they are made in USA so they are her then go there to Europe second. The guy with the Ford GT said it was highly modified, he mostly meant the body and paint, wing and stuff but you know he added a little something to the engine.
@@digitaldirt7773 they're made in canada by multimatic.
I don't think the zo6 used the launch control, sounded like he just used the foot brake?
2025 ZR1 eats the GT for breakfast.
When you 2 visit Boston, you need to rent a muscle car
That guy had more excuses he got beat
Una! Salamat po!
I HATE when they put the Granny features on a car!!!
I'd have one though but the Wife would probably divorce me in short order.
It's probably a European version thing. They also make them less noisy due to regulations.
The 2025 Corvette ZR1 is much faster. You have to check it out.
