everyone is going to quiet down about potential when the Z's come out for the C7...

yes a base model vette is going to take a few mods to reach the 1/4 mile performance of a 700hp car.

i dont get this potential **** talking, every car can be made to do what you want. SRK section is getting ridiculous and dumb.

the vette put up a decent fight for being ~300hp less.

Decent fight cause he got off the line faster in his auto. Shocking. GT500 was going to be in a different zip code if they kept going

200hp*

I do agree tho, only bc the GT500 could gives two ***** less about launching the car cause he knew he would freight train the Vette.

The C7 is a 120mph car, only @ Atco in Nov. Even so im amazed that the GT500 only had a 6mph advantage on it same day same track with an extra 200hp. Remember these Vettes arent 3200lbs anymore...

Im with Evan on this one. Keeping it basic with mods the GT500 will rape a base C7, now the Z's will be a different ball game...

Also arent these two cars priced about the same? The GT500 is MUCH faster for the money. At least in a straight line...

You already know the answer.

But who is going to say a 20 year old tuner car has more potential than a late model muscle car though? Catch my drift?
Why do you think I'm buying a fd-roller?
But this is comparing these two cars. And the fact that the c7 is still a better platform for mods than a gt500. And a rx-7 is better than both.

Damn, you always get upset quick. Face it. Your nearly-4,000lb car is a terrible platform when compared to a corvette. 500rwhp corvettes are faster than your 720rwhp gt500. Why? Lighter, better platform.

I have yet to be impressed by the results of any modified gt500.

Yea just like that 590whp vette that was basically door to door with my 620whp gt500. Oh and let's not forget the c7 is 200+ lbs heavier then a c6z

Your 620whp gt500 runs 12s. Stock c6s run the same ET as you.

Uhh that was either a typo of my part, or a mod edited my post. The C7 was ~1/2 car in front.



Probably my fault, been a very long weekend/week so far. I could go screenshot us crossing the line, but I'm lazy.
