It's worse than that, McLaren rates their cars at wheel horse power. Most 720s on the dyno were achieving around ~700 at the wheel which combined with the lightness, active aero, incredible launch control/electrionics and superfast changing box is why the 720s for many years just demolished the cars in it's class for performance. So the 750s will be making well over 700whp if McLaren have kept rating at the wheel which is what I'd expect especially given the engine is a evolution of the M8840T.

@@jerometruitt2731 yeah but McLaren states whp, Chevy states hp at the crank. For example, a _stock_ c7 ZR1 made less than a 2 car gap against a _stock_ 600lt. That's 600hp Vs 755hp, but they were still so close to each other despite the "massive" power gap. The answer is that 600 _whp_ is closer to 700 crank hp. So instead of 600, it was really 700hp Vs 755hp, when you take both values from the cranks. Hence the ZR1 only pulled slightly. The 750s is *_only_* stated at 750hp, but u can bet Ur bottom dollar that number is actually closer to whp than it is to the crank hp. 750whp at 15% drivetrain loss is 880+ hp crank. So unless the new ZR1 is making _at least_ 900hp at the crank, sorry, it's not beating no 750s. Not to mention the Z06 is already a pig compared to the 750s, if the ZR1 is using the same engine and chassis, AND adding twin turbos, all the turbo piping, AND the hybrid battery system and all it's relevant wiring, it's gonna be _very close_ to 4000 lbs. And that's not even taking into account other aspects like handling, tyres, Chevy Vs McLaren's launch control systems, etc etc.

The real "race" here was between the MacLarens, and the Vettes. Nice to see the data in the leaderboard. It shows the 750S is almost a 765, and the Eray is almost as quick on that course as the Z06 (although much "slower" on the course top speed).

Also I will keep saying the price tag isn't all about straight line performance, it's about everything else as well. You'd still be in an Eray (and there's nothing wrong with that) and the 750s owner would still be in a McLaren. I don't say this as a put down for the ERay but modifying an ERay to try and keep up with a 750s wouldn't account for the price difference in anyway. If price to performance is your own metric then both cars are a massive waste of money. I can go far faster than both with a highly modified cheap car or a motorbike. The 750s was always going to destroy the ERay, they aren't in the same league as each other but so what eh? There are cars much faster than the 750s as well. I find whenever cars go up against McLaren and lose it's always excuse after excuse to explain it. When actually the explanation is the McLaren 7xx series cars are exquitely designed by some of the best motorsport engineers in the world and their cost reflects their engineering. You don't have things like carbon monocoque chassis, motorsport pedigree engines and active aero at a low cost. But all of these things equal a massive performance advantage over lower costing cars that use traditional engineering/design.

Eray will typically win in a straight up 1/4 mile drag race, but anything longer and the Z06 will win, and anything track related will go to the Z06. They already showed the times for their U-Drags and the Z06 won by a bit.

It's always great to see such quick cars on the track. Very few ICE cars can launch like an E-Ray, and even fewer cars can pull like a McLaren. It's an interesting comparison, although the result isn't too surprising given the weight and power difference (The 750 is 750 lbs lighter, McLaren's quotes wheel horsepower for claimed numbers, and the E-Ray's motor powers down after the 1/8th mile, so ~300 hp difference by the finish line). One complaint I keep seeing about the E-Ray and C8 in general, however, is pedal feel and gearing. Those later gears are ridiculously tall, with 2 gear shifts between 120 mph and top speed, followed by more or less 3 overdrive gears. This means the C8 bogs down hard around the quarter mile. I get it's for gas mileage, but it really screws up performance of the car. It might help if they had a more linear pedal response, since the brake-by-wire system isn't exactly confidence inspiring. Not to paint the E-Ray as a bad car, however, as it will make cars in its price bracket look like they're standing still. It's easy to forget how fast it is when placed against a car that already makes supercars look slow. Chevy is bound to come out with a ZR1 soon that will probably match or beat the 750's power and I wouldn't be surprised if they end up adding another motor or two to that, even if it ends up weighing a couple tons

It’s 2024 & a Corvette is in the same conversation as a McLaren. Shouts out to Chevy & great clean race

This has got to be the stupidest race a car that cost 3x as much weights over 600 less and has 95 hp. What do you think would happen?!compare E-ray to NSX, GTR , M4 .

The E-Ray needs to be less weight but hats off to GM pretty cool.

That McLaren is sooo fast! I still prefer the looks of the eRay though

Johnny, that laugh in the 750 S is exactly what I’d be sounding like 😂

Guys you should have also included incar Vbox camera like earlier

The 750S fully answers the question why it is 3x the price of the E-Ray. I'm just astonished at how it whizzes past the E-Ray almost like it was at a standstill! Short of the 765LT, there isn't anything else within range that puts down power like it.

Yeah and you could spend 15 grand on upgrading the ERays performance to make that overall price feel kinda silly…

@@drummerdoingstuff5020 - No you couldn't, it would still be an ERay and the 750s would still be a 750s. The 750s is faster by every measure other than the launch and built in such a way that it would take an incredible performance upgrade to even try to get in the game with the 750s. In addition, if your only measure of price is performance, you can go far faster than an ERAY in a 90's Civic with mods, but comparing the two would be equally ridiculous.

I'm curious as to what you'd spend the 15k on😂😂. Would it be to *_try_* and come anywhere near the 750s' (sure to be crazy) nurburgring time? Or would you spend it on trying to match it's straight line speed, or would you spend it on trying to make that _thing_ look better? 750s is worth every penny, not sure the eray is even worth it's msrp price, let alone the real world marked up dealer prices...@@drummerdoingstuff5020

@@LeeXRV I never said they would become anything different or something they aren’t, and you may not be aware that it’s possible but yes you can upgrade a vehicle, especially one that’s already fast and make it even faster using the same little trick McLaren uses with forced induction example. The potential that 6.2 has in making potential power gains past the inflated value of the 750’s 4.0L on top of GMs reliability and maintenance costs advantages, (something McLaren owners are all toofamiliar with) makes it way better value for money and I think it’s closer to a mid engined performance car than the front wheel drive Honda you for some reason thinks deserves a mention despite its irrelevance unless you were acknowledging the fact you could daily the C8.. My whole point was that it wouldn’t be hard or cost much to have a car that looks better, performs as well in the corners, is more reliable and gives you more for your money. Still think the 750 is a cool car, the C8 makes it harder to justify that difference in price.

He didn't want that smoke !

The 750 is going 16mph faster in the quarter after having lost the 0-60 by a tenth.😮

Pls never refer to the C8 as a super car again. That’s like calling a Tesla a car 💻📱.

It has all the HP and necessary stats to make it a supercar. Just because it doesn't cost 250k+ doesn't mean it's not in the supercar category.

The z06 is a supercar and is considered widely in the car community as a supercar; you're just a hater.

Everyone likes to call Corvette's supercars until it gets put against an actual current-gen supercar, then its "ouhabouga it's cheaper" The 750s ahd 765 have previous-gen hypercar makings, making them proper current-gen supercars The corvette is an amasing current gen sportscars

I would not pay three times as much as an E-Ray because it is a fantastic vehicle, but that McLaren go crazy!

No fear, the big brothers Zora and ZR1 are coming‼️‼️

Corvette makes the 750 look gorgeous

Have a Plaid or Sapphire out there, should be #1 on your leaderboard

@@michaelschultz1104😂 yeahyeah they would easily make up for that with straight line power

As much as I'm a McLaren fanboy that eBay is going to be a stoplight to stop light monster

That race was awesome

Great vid! I'm glad to see the Z still had the E beat. Not by much but just enough

The Vette is heavier with less power, maybe not combined power. But that's the reason for the difference. The electric power did make a difference at launch, I thought the Eray would win the 1/4 but it was a little slower. 10.50 is well into the 10 second territory but it's not 9.90's. Good show GM, awesome for the price point. Excellent victory for McLaren too.

Mclaren is a beast. I am a Corvette fan but Damm it is what it is

The E-ray's launch and initial acceleration is impressive but holy sh*t the McLaren reeled it and passed by like the vette was a civic.

Good showing from the vette, especially if you consider costs. Great value

Cool race❤

Pretty impressive. That E-ray hung in there pretty... pretty.. good

If anything this makes me want a Corvette cuz that price difference can't be ignored

The C8 is the best performance value on the market!

New favorite phrase: "NASTY FAST" 😂😂😂

Let’s run this race again in the coming months now the ZR1 has been announced and see the results. Going to more of an even playing field. Excited to see

Well done. Like your channel as you give the choice to go to timestamps. Continue your work.

hot take - i like the E-ray more than the Z06. i like that it retains the small block v8 but adds a hybrid component for maximum acceleration. such a cool Corvette

Can't deny that the c8's have incredible LC, DCT and AWD systems that work together beautifully during launch.

thats what happens when the electric motors turn off on the top end and than the extra weight starts showing.

Get the E-Ray. Wait a little while for a turbo kit or Pro Charger and still have money left over for a second car.

I love how defensive Corvette guys get over this stuff. So butthurt over a company that doesnt give two shits about them.

That rear end looks like a lot of fun. I'm ready to have a turn at it.

Lmao at the corvette trying to get in the slipstream almost hitting the cones 😂😂😂

They should've done the Mclaren Artura. It would've been a closer race

Edmund's should really put a segment time for the turn around and not just the max Gs achieved. The time difference can tell you a lot about the cars and also the driver ability.

A super charged E-Ray is going to be a monster. Shops with aftermarket Super charger with warranty already exists.

For the 200K gap in price…that Vette can sure keep up. A true testament to the bow tie. A Corvette was never meant to compete against a McLaren but here we are. Hats off to Chevy’s engineers!

This speaks VOLUMES about the Corvette team at chevy

That they put alot of effort into a car costing 1/3 the price yes it does. Unless you are trying to 💩 on them which I would not understand why

The last words from the corvette E-Ray to the McLaren...Damn that's fast 😂

The difrence in engine Ravving speed in every gear is huge

I wanna see a Golf R vs normal Corolla and then ERay vs Golf R to give some perspective 😂

Soon C8 ZR1 comes and takes the first place in leaderboard ! 🔥
