At 3:13 the digital speedometer is reading 59 MPH but the analog one is at 60 MPH... A little lag in the digital speedometer is possible

I think you would have to check your PS3 to see when that episode will air.

Haha, the second video I watched on my phone and it didn't show the entire screen and the graphics were poor. Now that I see it on the computer I can see what yall are referring to. Sorry for not catching that before I posted it.

Ok....It has the Stingray grille, but ZO6 vents! Suspect a Stingray on a track doctored to look like a zo6.
That being thr case, I doubt the first video from the same source is real.

I am quite sure this is a much better transmission but the shifts do not seem to be no faster than my A6.

Could be a doctored stingray video made to look like a zo6...fake speeds-times, bit true shifts with your A6.

It is absolutely a video game!
But I hope it will be something similar or even better.

These videos all look fake. When it says GM as the YouTube poster, then I'll believe it.

That thing must RIP with a set of warmed up DRs!

Can't imagine just how hard the traction control is dialing back power - the LS7 has trouble with traction when geared to 60mph in 1st. That thing is gear for 42ish in 1st, with 150 hp more hp and 170 more tq. Then factor in the converter at launch.
