Default McLaren 720S vs. some FAST *** Vettes

Took a 720S out this last weekend to race a bunch of my car buddies. Thing is fast straight out of the dealer!

Nothing like a nice street race in traffic.

Very nice Ryan! Thanks for sharing.

How much does your C7 on nitrous make?

I saw your other video of 10.1 @142mph 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

In highway traffic? Consider where you might be spending Christmas if any car around you has an accident and someone is seriously hurt or worse?

"Maybe killing folks?"

No folks died here, you are just a car polisher

Texting and driving actually causes more injuries and fatalities than street racing by a long shot. You are telling me you have never shot off a text while driving?

Nice! Where did you have the work done. Beating up on a 720S is no easy feat, but you flattened him. Impressive!!!

Looks like 800 plus rwhp should do the trick?

Bad drivers, texting drivers, drivers on phone, vehicles with faulty equipment, drunk drivers, stoned drivers, distracted drivers, tailgaters, frequent lane changers, etc... lets start a thread to damn them!!

Never met a Corvette Owner yet who stays under the speed limit 100% of the time and never had a spirited run.

Problem with some members is they have forgotten the antics of their younger years.

GREAT VIDS!!
