Hybrid power is the new nitrous. 2nd gear is unreal.

The Bugatti's 1/8 mile traps are the same and the 60-130 and 100-150 times are actually a little better in this vid but it has some trouble launching.
These cars are pretty close.

ZR1X had to wait for the Bug.

Even left late to help the poor Bug.

Drove around the Bug.

They are, but the fact that the Corvette can now say that is impressive as that wasn’t the case when the Veyron came out.

No doubt.
The Veyron was a crazy car in its own right but time has marched on.
I expected the Chiron to be right there, it's put down great results in the past.
For any amount of money it is tough to beat the ZR1/ZR1X for all out performance.
