I saw recently the Z06 take down a Lucid in the U-Drag...

Predictably the EV couldn't stop, couldn't turn, and only seemed to get slower times in later runs... But yea, it can go like hell for a few seconds in a straight line -yippee-

253 mile range for a full tank in the Z06?! What about range anxiety?

The second run on the Z06 was very impressive.

Next level, both the review and the Z06. I would mos def pass on the Z07 package.

I need to build a second garage so I can get one someday.

Haha, not even close, let alone fair. Dat LT6. The C8 Z06 rivals the GT3 RS for the best performance vehicle ever built.

The LT6 is an impressive engine.  About time.

Nope, and GM killed it. The LT6 is unmatched in the world. That GM green lit the project is just as amazing and the actual motor itself as the LT6, unlike the ubiquitous pooprod LT engines, will only be used in the Corvette.

Should be monster. Twin turbos + hybrid = 800+ hp easily.
