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.

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.
