Default 2014 C7 is the SLOWEST Corvette ever!

Met up with a couple of buddies to see how the 2014 Corvette would match up against their cars...2008 modded C6, 2008 Z06, and LS2 GTO. It was a couple of fun pulls, but the C7 is gonna need some go-fast mods to hang with any decent car on the streets...

Haha...it was just a bit of humor man. Wasn't really expecting to pull on that C6. His sweet spot is a 40 punch. The Z06 and C7 did better from a 50 roll against that C6. Those 4.10's REALLY get him outta the hole well...

Is this a Canadian thing? I've never seen it before and you do it often. Please educate me.

"EH" is the correct spelling for that Canuck saying.

That's because they take offence if you criticise their favourite theatre in the neighbourhood.

I do catch myself spelling sizeable (UK) instead of sizable (US) and I've always spelled theatre instead of theater.
