The "poor" need not apply.

As older person who grew with a friend with a 1967 Yenko 427 Camaro,last one made.wherd can you use that much hp! I know my SD when new could be scary on turns esp 110+++++

The Corvette ZR1X is the fastest car in the World.........America. This youtube shows a great drag race between Lucid and Corvetter. Although by MPH the electric Lucid technically makes it the fastest car in the world. The electric motor just shows this is the future for fast cars. Any guy who loves fast cars cannot deny the instant on demand torque that electric motors give you with that push you in the back of your seat feel.

I would drive a prius (and then expect to be neutered) before I ever get in to any vette (or anything chebby) for that matter....

Wrong thread son :drive: Read my sig.

You do realize that the Corvette ZR1X front drive propulsion is an electric motor, right??? Your right no one goes to the dragstrip to watch cars go fast:confused::pound:

Yeah it provides a whopping 189 hp, mostly for pulling threw turns and such.
Like other electric junk it only lasts a short time at W.O.T.
Did you even watch the video all the way threw?
And BTW please re-frame from mucking up my threads with you're trash comments.

The new ZR1 is a monster. The C6 and C7 ZR1s are also flat out incredible cars.

I'd personally order the "base" ZR1 without the hybrid drive. I dont like the weight in the nose. That said, you cant deny it's abilities.

GM announced they're bringing back Admiral Blue. My C7 is Admiral, and it's beautiful. I'd definitely order a new ZR1 in Admiral over red with ZTK aero

Alert the ZR1X ripped that Tesla's head off.

Damn that's quick and fast.

The Vette in the YouTube vids on drag radials so I'd be curious what it does on street tires and those huge 19/20" wheels.
Luckily non of us will probably run into one on the street at a light. LOL

$225k vs $110k
Not exactly a win in ET per dollar but the Vette is clearly gonna give Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren and Bugatti some hurt feelings.

Pretty sure It's on factory tires.
Run flats I believe no air. The traction control management is unreal.
8.88 at 154mph

Oh damn, in video 2 he said Drag Times in FL, not drag tires. WTH that's insane on factory tires too.

Face it, we really have come a long way in chassis and management designs.

Someone needs to correct the blaring mistakes you keep putting down
Without the front electric motor the Corvette C8 ZR1 is beaten by the Plaid handily. If that guy didnt mess up the launch in the first video the Corvette would have lost all 3 times in the second video. Maybe that is why GM added it you think:idea:

No it is the instant torque provided by the electric motor and modern electronics that get the ZR1x out of the hole quicker compared to the standard ZR1

So the electric motor makes 3 horsepower more than your 403Olds engine.
Or maybe just mill the heads another .100/
If you had a real 455 Pontiac TA engine you could beat Grands Bird as well whats your point.
Re watch the video's it tromps your Tesla.
Actually it "Freight Trains" the Tesla fan boy.
+ it charges it's own batteries. lol
