That's great!
Same with the Ferrari guy I've said before I'm a previous multi-vette owner and stick around mostly for CFOT. There's much tougher skin in off topic. Here it's just snowflake central with C8 derangement syndrome. Just having a fun with some of you.
Reminds me of when the C7 first came out. Very touchy. I remember posting (let me find it)...this in C7 land when I had my C6 to get a rise out of some of them. Took me a second to find it as the mods changed the name of that thread and edited out some posts but was a good laugh. Put my boosted C6 against my stock C7 Z51 and mentioned it was a heat soaked C7 Z06 as a joke. Man time flies 2014!!! TLS having a rouse in there too as usual.

The C6 boys were always cool and had much tougher skin. Just had some fun pointing out the C8 is like the first generation Tesla cars. All launch to make great magazine numbers (sub 3 second to 60) and a quarter mile time with a whimpy MPH trap speed. It's literally coasting to the finish. At least the Z06 has the punch with a 130+ MPH trap at the end and a high revving motor that matches the looks.
