Corvette sounds absolutely insane.
I saw a beautiful blue one, a Z06, the other day pull out from behind a slower car and boom. OMG, what a sound, took off like a bat out of hell.
Sound ain't performance
@@kingkeef1182 Performance ain't necessarily driving enjoyment.
@@mark7067 idk why else you would buy a vette if performance ain't enjoying it. I'm not spending 100K on sum thing wit no performance. That's like buying a demon jus to drive street speed
@@kingkeef1182 You really should experience a wider variety of cars.
The zr1 sounds badass
And looks better
Calvin hell yea bro
El Pocho 16 now denying that😎👍🏻👍🏻.
@@calvin4279 hell no
That’s because it is badass.
I'm a ford guy but the zr1 is a beautiful bad ass car. Well done chevy
MrDavidelliottjr I respect you for that
I'm a Chevy guy but that Ford GT has so many sexy curves. Well done ford.
@Angela Gonzalez born a ford guy. All i have are fords and all I've owned are fords. But im not one of thise guys that dont give props where there due. The zr1 is a beast. And beautiful. But the gt is magnificent in every way.
I can't stand the new zr1 or c8. I am not satisfied with it. But I like the c7 ZO6, and the C6 ZR1. Those things are outstanding
Scorpion7substance Mustang :D
Finally a race where the zr1 was shown it's potential. Other people race theres straight out of the box and get beaten on UA-cam not realizing there is a power limit at extremely low mileage. Good job Hennessey you do it right!
Seth Valpey I agree my c7 Z06 was a monster from the beginning but once it hit 1,500 miles it was like a switch had been flipped and I had a whole new car. For those wondering gm intentionally does this so the car has a proper break in period to protect the warranty. This way guys like 717 don’t destroy their cars by doing stupid shit and gm doesn’t have to keep replacing cars. It seems like dodge doesn’t do this and is perhaps why they have issues. Maybe I’m wrong, does dodge have their ecu adjust for a break in period or do they just let you do it manually like it’s been done in the past?
Philip Amos it was pulling pretty hard considering the weight and slow transmition disadvantage. The mclaren costs a hell of a lot more as well. I love the McLaren. McLaren is one of my favorite companies but we all know they underate the hp figures. Both awesome cars though and good racing. Thanks for sharing your opinion!
Philip Amos that 600lt is more than 500 lbs lighter and has a faster transmission and it has way less drag than the zr1 creates.
which potential? the ZR1 is garbage. Read above the ZR1 it says hennessey. It means it got tuned from hennessey texas. It if wasn't for the upgrades it received it wouldn't compete at all. So you feel sorry that an American car needs to be tuned to compete.
@@dabronz4537 if you wouldn't be stupid you could have read the discription STOCK 600lt vs STOCK ZR1. Why are you so butthurt? Wait 'till you grow up and realise that the American cars are way cheaper and faster than any other country's brands.The McLaren costs so much and can't even beat a stock ZR1..like come on😂
$130k vette ZR1 versus $240k (base price that you never find) Mclaren 600LT
The Corvette ZR1 is a fantastic looking car and its performance is amazing at an amazing price ..front engine also..but with 3 championships in a row in ALMS its not surprising..porsche ferrari bmw ford gt aston martin jaguar..have all tried and failed for 20 years now..with the Corvette Racing team winning by a huge margin over that time. Now for the C8 mid engine Corvette..lets hope that continues.
Yes im here from the future and its sad to say the C8 has come out to be a disappointment this year getting absolutely destroyed by Mustangs while the corvette c8 mid engine has a crazy advantage, In aerodynamics plus its corvettes first ever Mid Engine and lacks horse power by alot plus the release of the Corvette c8 was getting delayed due technical difficulties and come at a cheap price 55k. Chevy dont want to admit it but the C8 mid engine is just the beta to the new gen of Vettes and the future Gen mid engines will cover its flaws. Although imo the C6 Zr1 and just the c6 generation in general Will always be reliable and Dangerous. Although that C7 gen is an INSANE successor to the C6's
studio7 yup 👍 that why I decide which my girlfriend want me to buy 🤑
I'm a student at ASU and I talked to a guy that actually works for GM, specifically on Corvette Designs, and after a couple of questions I asked him, he had told me that sometimes they loss money with making and selling Corvettes because the Corvette was made to be the American Sports car that people can enjoy and so it can be affordable for people to enjoy. The question I asked was, "The 2019 Corvette ZR1 has track records those similar to high-end performance cars, or hypercars better said, that being so, is GM and Corvette trying to compete with these other car companies like Ferrari, Lamborgini, Mclaren, etc?" And as I said indirectly, he said no, that they do not do it to compete but rather than to make an American sports car as fun and affordable as any other sports car.
Samuel Soto Diaz underrated comment
It's a similar approach that Toyota has with Lexus. It is not to directly say they are all out trying to compete but to offer you a more affordable alternative. Obviously if they wanted to be faster the HP wars would never end. At some point they all have to decide what they want to achieve and is an all out competitive car worth it. Nissan lost so much money on the early GTR cars because they wanted to compete but knew people would not pay supercar money for a Nissan. So they took a loss for a few years just to show what they can do.
Yeah man just like the viper
Bear down
Alabama State or Arizona State University? I'm from Alabama by the way.
The ZR1 was pulling good on that Mclaren. Pretty good when you consider the ZR1 weighs nearly 3700lbs.. Bet that Mclaren only weighs 3000lbs. Plus we know Mclarens make more power than advertised.
That's just a rumour. They make a surprisingly good hp out at the wheels, but that's all. The ZR1 makes 755bhp (at the crank), the McLaren 592bhp. Granted the ZR1 is 3,560lbs and the McLaren 2,750, and the ZR1 has a bloody great wing on the back, but it should be no big shock the Vette won.
Corvettes aren't heavy
@@MagicSkeleton so the 600 is lighter then a 720
@@bigslatt708 The ZR1 is. It's nearly 3700lbs all in. Look it up.
@@MagicSkeleton you're talking about dry weight, the 600LT is about 3,000 pounds.
The zr1 sounds like Satan farting. I love it
That ZR1 sounds amazing!!!!
Yea
That corvette sounds like an electric guitar!
Corvette is a charm 🤤
If races were always "on the roll" GM would be king for the last 20 years, in most every class.
but they ain’t so us chevy guys gotta give props to the cars that perform good from a dig
I didn't expect this mclaren's lost. well done ZR1
sea master 600hp vs 750hp...
MoJo 2977 I don’t think you’re familiar with Mclarens...
@@PacificNorthwestR mojo definitely isn’t.
did it lose? this was just a bunch of different runs and angles and playing about it seemed.
@@zzz7zzz9 you literally see the ZR1 pull ahead, then you see it slowing down because it’s at the end of the track
am i missing something? why do a drag race without launch control?
Because its a American car an American channel and a American tuning company so they don't want a brit to show it up.
@@lukearmitage1533 i get it, it just sucks to get excited about watching a race between two awesome cars and then they go ahead and upload a dishonest one
@Vishnu Kalluri even 570s is much faster than zr1.
@@Taradash4L not with a good driver behind the zr1
@Vishnu Kalluri yeah ur smart, why tf would you buy an car for only how fast is it? mclaren price is included also by his superior technology, interior, design and look, corvette just an junk which was made only for drag race or track.
I think whoever was in the LT was asleep. That launch from a dig was not good.
Jackson Barinowski true but while the zr1 was spinning catching traction the 600lt pulled ahead by half a car until the bald eagles caught wings and left the German car.
@@bigmike2971 Yeah right about when the driver of the lt fiddled too much with the shifting. Terrible driver. If we talk pure numbers, the lt wins by 0.2s.
Cyber Terror lol if that’s the case why It didn’t win on a roll??? The zr1 still killed it at a 30 mph roll and kept pulling away. The better car this day was the heavier zr1
@@bigmike2971 Because the driver is clearly sleeping. Are you blind? Go and search up the best 1/4 mile the zr1 can do. Please do. The LT beats that time by .2 s
Cyber Terror lmao. It doesn’t matter if u win by a inch or a mile in any drag race across the country whoever crossed that line on that day at that specific time is clarified the winner. The zr1 won both races. At a dig and at a roll.. Lol. If your driver was sleep (which he wasn’t cause Hennessy performance employee great builders and great drivers) that’s his own damn fault correct??? Know are u blind. Did u see who won these races in this day???
600LT wasn't using Launch Control and the Vette did, you can clearly hear that. There is no way it would lose if 600LT was launching. This is simply a PR stunt from Hennescrewed to show huge gains on his supposed 1000 HP tune he is doing on the 600.
ViperGuy Dodge it states the ZR1 was stock. That’s not there 1000hp tune.
And launch control on the ZR1 and Zo6 suck. I’ve owned both and have a ZR1 now. You can launch harder by your self. From the video it doesn’t look like any of them was more then just from a roll. In that case it’s accurate. From A dig I also believe the McLaren would get the ZR1. But from a roll stock for stock the ZR1 pulls hard a definite difference from my Zo6.
Matt French hey Matt, you said you have a (c7) zr1, is the LC only in the manual? I have an 8 speed and have been trying to see if it’s also in there too.
You miss read viperguys comment!..they are doing a 1000hp setup on a 600lt soon.
John Carlson
Honestly I’ve never tried it. I did on my Zo6 and it wasn’t that great I had a 17’ ZL1 and it worked actually well.
But I haven’t tried the ZR1 yet.
I like them both but I'd take the zr1 for the sound alone and save a boatload of money! Can't wait until they crack the ECU so we can see what it's really capable of.
I would think both cars have similar power to weight ratios given that the zr1 is around 600lbs heavier so this race surprisingly looks about right. But the zr1 does have a huge torque advantage.
No advantage off the line (can't put it all down) where the mid engine McLn has an advantage
The ZR1 is a lot of car for the money great value and about half the price of the McLaren
That ZR1 SCREAMS. What an awesome car. Makes the McLaren look and sound very underwhelming.
ZR1 is such an amazing looking car🔥
Guys paying over $300K for a 600LT. The ZR1 is literally half the price and I bet the ZR1 will beat the 600LT around a road course too. I would like to see a drag race between the 600 LT and a 570s. The 600LT doesn't seem much faster based on these races (and yes, I know it is supposed to have more HP and less weight) and be similar in speed to a 720s. But a 720s will beat a ZR1 pretty easily.
The Zr1 is actually better in a lot of ways,its 0-60 is 2.8 while the maclarens is 2.9,but the Corvette has a higher top speed of 212mph and the maclarens is 204mph,not just that it sounds way better and you get a way better price on it,but both cars are awesome in a bunch of ways
But what is each cars 0-100mph 🤣🤦♂️... The McLaren is faster straight line.
ZR1 has a higher top speed.
that corvette is a monster
My dream car is a Corvette and just by watching this video. Oh man made me sweat alittle.
Wow, I'm surprised the ZR1 barely won against that McLaren when its 155 more HP.
To be fair to the Vette, McLaren tends to underrate their HP. The 720S was underrated when it was dynoed and I wouldn’t be surprised if the 600LT is underrated too.
@@usernamealreadytaken770 probably yeah.
Chevy gang
Lmao i thought the ZR1 was going to get gapped considering it gets gapped by everything on the street.
Because those people dont know about the car fully, I'd explain but the comments do it better than I can as I never owned a vette
I think a lot of it is peps on YT were taking delivery and doing runs w/o the ZR1 being broken in. I believe the factory ecu holds the power back a little until the car has somewhere around 1000-1500 miles on it. But yeah, overall I haven't been too impressed with the ZR1 straigth line speed. Maybe it's just the big wing, IDK.
@@ssoffshore5111 corvettes take getting used too, look at hipo driver on UA-cam, he has a manual zr1 and boy let me tell you he can drive that thing around a track
Gapped! where have you been hiding under a rock LOL
That sound on the Z...Screaming eagles from hell..
pretty funny, put me in the 600LT and bye bye ZR1.... :)
I thought the exact same…love your content Brooks.
Yeah I was thinking about you....
Yeah, right
Didn't your 720s get beat by a modded C6Z but was never posted to your channel? If it wasn't your 720s, my apologies.
Ain’t know doubt!!! I seen you race in person. These clowns stage these races
And the winner is c6 zr1.
*C7 ZR1
C7 bro
@@changofeo9795 I know it's a c7 but I wish there was a C6 in the race. I like them more.
madrx2 The C6 ZR1 would get its ass beaten by both of them. Nobody cares if you like it more, facts don't change just because you like it more.
madrx2
I got it but those guys , Lol 🌬 Whoosh 💨
Legit way to run without potential to hurt others
Gotta love that cheap American muscle baby.
The McLaren driver was feathering the pedal. You can hear it . The McLaren pulls way harder than this fake drag race
Yep its the only way this result could happen. A car which traps 135 plus will not lose to a zr1 on a roll race! Not one set of tested numbers puts the zr1 close
Cry me a river
@@BleuBenjamins205 seems like you’re insecure get a life
@@ericship8383 be gone Troll
McLaren 600LT is a track focused car. Let’s see how they compare on a circuit.
So is the ZR1 it should be interesting to see how they compare on track
ZR1 is a circuit focused car as well and pretty impressive given its 2-300k cheaper than the cars its being compared against.
No comparison. The 720s has been
Outlapped by the ZR1 already
With a 155 horsepower advantage, the Corvette should win. How about comparing apples to apples and compare the ZR1 to the 720S with 710 hp. I'm willing to bet the McLaren gaps it.
@Craig Scott I've owned two Corvettes, with the last being a C7Z. I'll never own another. I even work for a GM dealer.
Bring back the z/28
Haha I wish that's why they made the ZL1 1LE. Camaro might just die in 2021.
And we need to see zr1 vs ford gt 🔥🔥🔥
That corvette idle never gets old
Good idea , but shouldn’t both cars be done with a launch control instead it seems like off the line both drivers was on the gas at different moments, same with rolling start, was there a kick down on the the automatic transmission?
Race was nice....To many people that have no idea how to race this damn thing and give comments like they know what they are talking about....Go race your honda's and 4 bangers.....This is supercar territory ..You win then you win..Nothing else matters...
Zr1 is not a supercar though.
It sure it is...Just because Chevy did it at better price..Don't hate
+ZR1 Channel ZR1 . Well first off if you couldn't tell by my username I'm a hardcore Chevy guy, but *NO!!!!!!* Zr1 is not a supercar. I can already see all the high class people laughing at your " Chevy did it at a better price" comment, they will ridicule you and call you a peasant. Also that 600LT will murder it at higher speeds because of lightweight and superior aero, American and European cars are not even on the same galaxie material, build, transmission wise. Supercar has always been synonymous with Italian super expensive prices so no.
There you go...High class people...Your bow down too fast....Make your own path...Will be better person for it...
@@supercarcriminals5078 Actually. The 2019 Corvette ZR1 is rated between Super-Sport to Supercar. It has all the specs as a super car. Yet done cheaper. Corvettes have been Supercars for the past few years. They just aren't widely accepted into the supercar community because high class Lamborghini owners don't want to say that the Corvette ranks higher and better on the scale or cars than it.
Cant wait to see the C8 completely walk away from the mclaren for 1/3 the price.
That sound of that vette brought tears to my eyes!
American muscle 🏁 for half the price!
Zr1 even has the wing that’s some amazing stuff
Didnt use launch control in the mclaren if he did he would have ate the zr1.. and it seems a little fishy cause im pretty sure a 600lt should beat a zr1. By a land slide
Will Buy It ur a idiot if the zr1 is auto theres not actual launch control its a torque converter.
Something is off with the race. My grandma can launch faster if she drove the 600lt.
This Vett it's a beast
that zr1 is so amazing. cant not wait to own one soon !!
See what happens when the zr1 has a competent driver it wins. Tired of seeing the rich guy with no skill getting beat by cars the zr1 should kill. Didn't think it would beat 600Lt but nice win!
I love Corvettes and i love mclarens but somethings not right here..... the 600lt will trap 135 plus easily and i simply do not believe the zr1 has any chance from a roll. Not one set of tested numbers could put the zr1 anywhere close to beating the 600lt from 30-130
McLaren has dual clutch tho. Of course it will climb to 135 faster. The Corvette has a 8 speed automatic torque converter transmission. Dual clutches are much quicker than the automatic torque converters.
Good God!! That ZR1 exhaust note is RIDICULOUS!!!!
Soft launch on the drid, of course, and the corvette jumps the roll, nice Hennessey
2 of my favorite cars. Love them both
Imagine the the Mclaren 600lt owners watching this 👁👄👁
That corvette was probably tuned, there is no way a stock Corvette would beat a 600LT.
A 720s would be a totally different result!
You would also get a totally different result with a 71 pinto lol...
Nah it wouldn’t because they wouldn’t drive the 720s properly either.
I love Corvette and McLaren BR
Why not do lunch control from the dig? I'm betting the 600lt would have won then or atleast been ahead of the ZR1 for a lot further.
I just jizzed my pants watching this video
Clearly the Corvette without the big wing would have easily won.
😂😂😂 they used the slowest Mclaren against fastest corvette. Next time bring the Mclaren 765lt and watch the corvette get absolutely destroyed 😂😂😂
No the 540c is the slowest mclaren, the 600lt is a 675lt replacement. So it's not the slowest
Damn that transmission in the ZR1 shifts FAST!
So who won.
The Corvette
Not possible
well the zr1 can break 210mph and the 600lt is around 204mph in terms of top speed. and you just watched the zr1 creep passed so it’s more than possible lool
mysteryman447
I’ve driven both. I’ve seen a 570s do a quarter mile in 10.2 secs. The Zr1 is too heavy and the transmission isn’t as fast. With good drivers the 600LT will win every time...
Howard A the zr1 has a higher top speed tho lol in a quarter mile sense maybe but it definitely wouldn’t win in a top out run
Interesting race. The Corvette has more power, but it weighs quite a bit more than the Mclaren.
I am still waiting for the HPE1200 for the ZR1 and also the HPE1000 600LT video !!!!!!!!!
Zr1 a monster
The commercial before the video 😂😂😂😂😂
That zr1 is the definition of perfection
Bang for the buck nothing is better than an American v8. You could do some serious mods to the Vette and it’d still be cheaper and probably even more reliable. Not bad for the ZTK and all the extra down force and weight difference.
Them ZR1’s are no joke
The downforce is the ZR1'S downfall in a straight line. It just wasn't built for drag racing.
This is kind of a rarity. The 2019 ZR1 is the fastest Corvette ever produced. The new ones can't do this. McLarens eat them.
Dig with no launch control? What a joke
Zr1 really beats a handful of supercars
Corvette ZR1 the best in the world❤🇦🇲
Not bad for a stock car hanging with a modified Hennessey ZR1. I don't recall seeing any vids of a stock ZR1 beating anything..?
Zr1 is stock, bro. It has 755HP stock from the factory.
765lt has entered the chat
Not using launch control on turbo cars puts them at a disadvantage in comparison to NA or supercharged just saying.
Being mid engined & weighing 600ibs
Less gives the Mclaren the advantage
Just saying
Corvette é sensacional
So damn refreshing to see 2 cars WITHOUT black wheels.
2019 ZR1 costs half as much, too
i guess that's a thing, if you are on a budget. people who can afford supercars don't care about cost.
Wait who won!?
I would be embarassed to own the McLaren after getting beat by a bad ass corvette.
Damn you can't even hear the McLaren next to that screaming ZR1
So when are we going to see the hp zr1
Don't miss with the corvette zr1
How about a real race, like on a race track. "If you can"t race in the rain then it isn't real racing"
Even with the big wang ZR1 eating all day. Mclaren needs the 720 to get it done
Nothin is said about specs of each car, thus rendering that video useless.
Tha Heartbeat of America!!!🗣🗣🗣💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Did the Vette have an auto? If not it doesnt stand a chance
and against 720s??? result may be different...
Robert Reid you can get a 600lt and a 720s for around the same price
720s will have the advantage because it has a dual clutch which is quicker than a 8 speed automatic torque converter transmission. Dual clutches are so lighting super fast.
Yusuf Elsayed that’s not the only reason
@Robert Reid the 720s and the zr1 are about the same price range do your research
Cant even hear the McLaren.
Wonder what would happen if they used launch control in the 600lt.....
Aventador SVJ 🆚 McLaren 700 LT Drag Race and Rolling Race
half the price still a badass car
Is there any data on the f5 yet? Why no vids?
Pretty close but just based on hp alone the ZR-1 should DEFINITELY take the cake cause 755hp vs. 600hp is almost a 160hp difference but the 600 LT is Definitely lighter.
Luke Slater I’m a corvette guy myself and I was sure the lighter 600lt would take the win but that good ole American muscle showed how strong it is
Hp doesn't always win races!
Adrian Rodriguez tru but in this case it did. Corvette weights almost if not 700 pounds more then the 600lt
The Corvette is only making 650hp to the wheels. 755hp is just the crank. The Corvette is just a better car here
Cornelius King my license plate says “V84LIF” but the vett is def not the better car here, not by a mile
