I'm guessing the large gap in top end is largely due to gearing and aerodynamics, although I'm sure the turbo torque and hybrid torque and major weight savings also likely have a large impact.

The McLaren is also likely making far more power than quoted as they usually do and has all of the advantages, less weight, better aero, the incredibly fast changing gearbox and most likely far more power. The way it passes the Z06 shows it's huge performance advantage even when Brooks tree's the other driver and it just drives around him. Also at the end of the 1/4, speeds between the two cars are huge which represents a massive performance gap. It would be good to dyno both and also weigh them to help understand why the McLaren has so much more performance. Still with that all said I prefer the Z06 looks and the noise it makes is truly amazing!

If each side of the first 60’ of the track were equally sticky and the tires on both cars provided as much traction as the respective cars need…then the vette pulls a lower 60’ time as a result of greater torque to the tires either as a function of lower effective gearing, or greater net torque, or a combo of both. The likeliest explanation as to why the Arturo trapped about 10 mph higher and a 4/10 sec ET is…. Lighter, or more power, or combo of both. Any potential Aero advantage would be minimal.

On Chevy's website they state a curb weight of 3500 lbs for the Z06 coupe in all trims. The convertible is 3599 lbs in all trims. I guess the 3900 lbs is 3599 + Brooke's weight and ego 🤣.

Other than the hideous red interior, that Z06 is a beast in a price point that’s hard to beat.

The R ray is the fastest factory Vette ever. Would have been a better race but the Z06 is also pure car porn. Thanks!

The zo6 sounds like a ferrari 458

That big wing will slow it down too much. Watch for Drag Time's Z06. Think he has the small wing, coupe instead of heavier convt., CCB's, and CF Wheels. Not sure how much quicker but should be interesting.

Weight is everything when that even & man the Vette sound incredible

I wonder if a Z06 drag aero kit will come out, but the downforce it generates, how do they do heads up for laptimes on the same track? Do you have a separate lap times channel? If no, maybe let's start one?

There go excuses 😂😂

There's at least a 90 hp difference here. 10 mph is a heck of alot faster no matter the small 300-400 we8fht difference. That trap speed says it all. And a full 1/2 sec time separation is quick too. Definitely a huge power disparity here. The McLarens are like bmw, they tend to underrate their power. I'd say closer to 700 hp and being that it's heavier than the 720s which is closer to 780 hp. The Z0 is likely closer to 640 hp. I heard Z0 engineers saying 625-640 2 months before release, and that lives up with the 125-126 mph trap speed. Most cars with 600-650 hp are running 123 moh to 126 mph in the 1/4.

The fact the vette stayed that close is pretty amazing😎

Considering the ZO6 weighs more, and is tuned from the factory to launch harder like that, I wonder what the impact is gonna be on the longevity of the clutches compared to McLarens, especially with a tune/bolt ons🤔

Sadly, they've already had transmission issues and engine issues with the new C8Z, as well as the regular C8s. My C8 launch control was similar to my McLaren, limited to about 3,200 RPMs. The C8Z is more like Porsches, where you can launch super high, but yeah that will have a tremendous impact on the longevity and reliability of the trans/clutch packs, etc. I would probably dial that down to about 4,000 lol, specially with mods on the C8Z.

My god that Vette sounds ANGRY on the downshifts.

With the 1 HP, 71 ft/lbs, and 600 lbs advantage, the McLaren's victory was all but assured. The gearing gets the Vete the 0-60 win, but nothing else. Now a race course might be different. The Corvette is over-scale. If it was 7/8 of its size, it would be a world-beater in practically everything

People are putting half a million dollar cars up against the Corvette and going “Wow, that half a million dollar car looks cool and performance impressive.” In other words, we’re ALL aware of the many reasons why the C8 Corvette is truly a game changing icon but there are still many who despise of it and hate on KZread who will never give Chevrolet the credit that is due. The fact the ZO6 still launched better than the Artura speaks volumes about the level of engineering that went into the car, rear wheel drive and launched better than something with the odds in their favor. 600 lbs difference is almost unheard of for any drag race - it’s like apples to oranges.

I'm a huge fan of the Z06 especially the epic noise it makes and think it's a fantastic car, my guess though given the huge performance gap is the McLaren in their typical fashion is making far more than 670bhp.
