Can you answer the following:

1) show the VIR info. what day, what driver, specifically what tires they had on and the times?
2) Milford - again, what day, driver, tires and times?

The Z06 is far far better than the ZR1 over all. So whats the issues?

Sure its called you tube and both the VIR Zr1 and C7 Z06 times are on there both driven by Mero. One with SC 1s and the Z06 with SC 2s.

The Milford was also Jim Mero testing as far as I know both times.

You can also see the Z06 eat Road Atlanta with a 1:29 on YT as well as GM released videos.

Im sure the Viper boys will have fit when the Z06 beats the TA at Laguna as well with Pobst.

More to come.

You dont what to say other than excuses. Blah blah blah, I barely know English and keep repeating myself over and over again with the same erroneous information because I have nothing intelligent to add to the conversation.

So 100 Canadians bought a Viper last year? Man, that is a lot of foreign high HP RWD sport car sales for such a small population country where it's cold 9-months out of the year.

I wonder if these guys will ever find out that I drive a Honda Civic with a 5" coffee can exhaust tip. One day when I get out of High School I will get a Z06!

Damn Vega, you called it!

Thats two V8 American cars I own and you look how butt hurt you are trying so hard to rant about a Honda. You wish I had a Honda. In denial and butt hurt is all you are. btw.. when you have to repeat its usually because the person is in denial or just plain slow. You are good for a lol though. E for effort on your part.

Not hoping for anything other than for you to have data backing up your claims.

The reason you are having difficulty, particularly on Milford is nobody knows if it was the same day, what year ZR1, what tires or the times.

Again, post the videos and the times so all can see.

Im not having any difficulty knowing and seeing that the C7 Z06 is faster than the ZR1 around the track. So if you want to see the VIR video's then go on YT and get it. Its right there for ya.

As for Milford GM have stated that the C7 Z was faster there again. Then the blistering time at Road Atlanta. So far so good.. dont you think. Remember its early days and all the comparisons are coming. Happy days.

Actually, no I don't see because it is not data.

You don't know anything about Milford other than what GM told you, which was "it was faster"
You don't know anything about Road Atlanta relative to others for the same day/driver.
Your not willing to post a YT for VIR as your data point.

Come on now, when you are trying to convince/prove to others that your claims are true (which is the position you are in), you need to add more. If your case is obvious, it should be easy to show.

These are the proper words:

- additional wear and tear and more expense for tires and brakes.

This discussion is obvioulsy not for you - go to Zaino thread and find local cars and coffee events side 400lbs gained over previous Z is trivial to you.

Lets talk about that... '

I havent seen a ZR1 vs C7 Z06 roll yet? Have you?

C7 Z06 lost every run vs ZR1. Can your "logical cell" in your head comprehend this?

It always has been and it always will be. The highway pull will always be the benchmark for "is my car faster than yours" because its is 100% accessible and 100% of drivers can manage to floor it in a straight line.
Truth right here.

sorry newbe, but just joining the forum this month, posting every 5 minutes, posting nothing based on facts..... makes you the ultimate fanboy troll, you don't even know how dumb you make yourself look/

Lets see some photos of your corvettes, im thinking you own a $hitbox and are abut 18 years old.

I know there are a number of these 2015 members that have multiple accounts, mostly teenage trolls who don't own anything.

But they get to use mom's Camry every Friday night till 11pm.

Also think some more boisterous 2014 members fall into same category - or work for GM.
