The Z06 laid an epic lap at Laguna SECA back in 2012 it was so fast that motor-trend didn’t even bother to run the ZR1 until 2015 when the Viper GTS came out, the C6 ZR1 went and just about set the world on fire, the viper never recovered, they couldn’t even give them away.

Bravo to GM for letting Emelia do her thing... this is the best marketing they could do. And if I'm not mistaken, isn't their a "Zora" or even faster 'Vette in the works? Corvette hit a homerun with the remake of the new Corvette. Awesome video! Straight down to business.
all of the C8 versions have been designed, developed and fully tested prior to any production and with the 'prototype' - first pre-production, camouflage vehicles through extensive testing prior to the first released for production Stingray for 2020 model year, and the C8-R for Corvette Racing. This Z06/7 version is the closest to the C8-R, N/A used by Corvette Racing in IMSA, GT, LeMans -winning overall 1st/2nd with its debut in 2020, then repeat win in 2021 -> the classes changed for 2022, but still very competitive, though split between two within IMSA + FIA - LeMans. The ZR1 is the next version with this same 5.5 L, flat-plane crank, DOHC engine, DCT, trans-axle w/ TT The Zora is the version afterward with additional front wheel electric motors. Also a GS version will be produced too, and apparently a fully electric motor version afterwards ->as other major manufactures are producing with performance vehicles in Europe and USA - seemingly Japan too - This is Global/Elite cooperation, direction, dictation, control. Sincerely
Newton Firefly said it right, base stingray, Z06, ZR1 which is a TT Z06 with even more aero, a Zora which is a ZR1 with hybrid assist in the front, likely a grandsport which will be the stingray with electric assist, and an all electric eray likely based off the Z06 platform.
But lambo is lower on power vs the vette so why so surprised ? Put it against a 640-4 and it might be a bit different. Also lambo driver is always leaving late and hitting the rev limiter. Although a very nice video i think it does not depict the reality of racing a 640-4 huracan :)
@@jaydog2108 there insparation was a ferrari 458 wich is hilarious a 458 is a 12 year old car comparing it with a unrealesed top of line corvette and the huracan was the slowest version of it for example huracan perfomante does 10.1 quarter mile and end of day this cars are not focused just on straight line perfomance some supercars wich are is 911 turbo s mclaren 720s but if she put thoose and corvette lost the audince wouldnt liked it thats why they counted round where a guy in a huracan is completly is messing up
Really? The Ferrari is 13 years old and the Lamborghini had a poor launch. Chevrolet Corvette C8 ZO6 - 10.5 1/4 Lamborghini Huracan Per - 10.1 1/4 Porsche Turbo S - 9.9 1/4 Nissan GTR R35 Nismo - 10.4 1/4 And lets not talk about how these cars will probably smoke the Vette on a track
@@spongy179Bro just now Z06 raced Artura and got absolutely destroyed by a entry level supercar from McLaren..... They hype the car for beating outdated or even discontinued cars lol
I have a 2011 GS and just recently discovered your channel. What really separates you from all the rest, is the true enthusiasm you have and it shows on your face. Great job!
458 is a great car, but let's face it, they quit making it almost 10 years ago, at this point I'd be disappointed if the corvette didn't beat it. You should find a 488 to run it with
@@codeblues55.03 I guess it would be interesting...but at 3100 lbs, over 700 hp and over $500K price, it would be embarrassing if the 488 struggled to beat the Z06 in a straight line or on a circuit.
The only critique I could make is that the other drivers were manually shifting when your weren’t. I’d like to see them all just keep it in drive to eliminate the human error of shifting improperly. Love the video though and the Z06 is impressive.
I dont understand why they are all manually shifting their cars which 90% of the time means suboptimal shift points... Which for a drag race means a lot... Id live to know how it would do in full auto
I see a lot of car channels doing this. Bang off the limiter and flick the paddles. Just stop. Reminds me of the drivers banging their VTEC Hondas off the limiter in the early 2000's while getting beat by my grandpa car. And then they'd say, "one more race, I can get you this time." 🙄
That is INSANE!! I didn't think that the Corvette would perform SO well, I figured the Z06 would be a great performer but this is on another level, now, I can't wait to see it outperform on the track and set some lap records!!
The C8-R already has been performing since 2020 in the GT class in LeMans, IMSA, FIA - also they have recorded performance at Nuremberg too, with each pre-production version before 2020 and since. Sincerely
That was sort of bs. They picked an old 458 and a bloated Lambo. Why didn't they at least race a 3 year old Ferrari 488 Pista, or new Ferrari F8, each with over 700hp? I mean, fair is fair, and while the vette is cool, it's no new hypercar slayer.
I feel like to really be fair we should be racing cars of the same year…her 458 is what a 2010 and the lambo is the rear wheel drive version which is considerably slower than the all wheel while the Vette isn’t even released yet...that being said, still an amazing car for the money.
That Z06 ate their lunch and didn't even leave them any scraps. I truly thought it would have been closer. Praying that you hit a million subscribers before Christmas. Would be an awesome present to give you.
Makes sense it’s a 13 year old 458 and the huracan is probably the slowest straight line supercar you can still buy. All the new ones like f8, sf90 and any mclaren are running low 10’s if not mid low 9’s. Even the 488 from 2015 has ran a 10.3 stock. I’m sure the z06 will do that in ideal conditions too but it’s a good 7 years behind in performance. Of course it’s still an amazing car and quick enough for anyone on the road, and sounds better than any car except for lambos
@@johncarl5505 and? wouldn’t you expect more performance for an expensive car? New Ferraris are running in the 9’s, mclarens have been doing it for years. Just saying of course a new vette would beat 10 year old platforms
This video was so damn fun to watch lmao nobody goes out of their way to make these “fair” fun races , really put into perspective how ridiculous Corvette has come , new sub I want more of these!!!
This is one of those few cars that might end up making less power with an aftermarket exhaust. The amount of engineering that went into this one is nuts.
They spent an enormous amount of time and money tuning this particular exhaust gir both performance and sound. More than any other manufacturer has that I know of. In this particular case, any aftermarket company is going to have a hard time matching it.
@@LazarusMastiffs also I'm wondering if an aftermarket system sounds less exotic....? I'm thinking GM tuned it's stock exhaust to take advantage of this....? I'm sure the answer will come as soon as more public deliveries happen. That 458 sounds amazing!
@@AlexLopez-pz1qr So it's quite an achievement to beat a car from 13 years ago with a huge wing and the slowest Lamborghini with a poor driver? why not a race with a Ferrari f8 tributo or a Lamborghini huracan Tecnica of the same year
Emelia, this has to be one of your best videos...ever! I'm so happy that GM has chosen you as their spokeswoman. Well deserved, I might add. I also love the fact that America has produced a supercar that whips ass on the likes of the Italians. BTW...I have all of the Manscaped products, and they are fantastic. Keep up the great work.
08:07 Given the way he lost the first race, with the Z06 pulling away the entire time, I don't understand his disbelief here in the second race. In fact, a roll race wasn't even necessary. The only chance he had (to make it closer, not win) was from a dig, with a better launch. Unfortunately, the guy's reaction time is slow as molasses.
The poor man’s Ferrari ain’t too poor when you can build a Walmart between the 2 cars crossing the finish line. Shows you where the passionate people work in the company. Well done GM👍
The C8 is great but don't get too excited. Those to WOP cars were not close to latest and greatest to come out of Italy. One is a decade old and the other bloated and not the fastest Lambo. Try racing against Europe's best from 2022 and you should come back down to earth.
Im not a corvette guy, but i love seeing how happy you are driving that car. You have an amazing personality & positive attitude. Enjoy every day, push it to the limit!.
Not even close! This Z06 will have to contest with the Artura and the 296GTB not to mention Lambo's next hybrid series coming out. All 700-1,000hp hybrids with 0-60 under 2.5 seconds. It's lights out Chevy! Always late to the party LOL
GM has such amazing potential and the Corvette program is proof of what the company can accomplish when they really want to. Too bad the magic doesn’t filter down to the regular GM stuff.
Awesome vid.. i went on thinking it'll lose by a length or 2, and then it'll the comments about "oh yeah, but it's cheaper than 100gs" .. but winning by these lengths is insane.. one thing that would have been insightful is knowing what condition and type of tires these cars are running.

This is the first time i can ever remember in 50 years reading Road and Track and watching videos that the Corvette is not only completely on par with supercars but its actually better. And it even sounds better. Amazing! Mid engine rules.
Gotta remember this is in a controlled environment with certain tune ups on the vette that the Lambo nd Ferrari don’t have. Edit: i would imagine. These guys aren’t stock drivers.
@@briansalisbury4764 watch the straight pipes review and you'll get a different impression. At the end of the day "better" sound is subjective, but I think most car nuts w/ grease beneath their nails will agree that it doesn't get much "better" than a Ferrari V-8
@@taylorhickman84 Well i am one those greaseballs and there is nothing wrong or surprising if the Corvette does sound as good or better than a Ferrari, right? I will say I have listened to many RUclips videos and the Z06 sounds definately unique. Its the combination of the twin overhead am motor and flat plane crank more than any exhaust system. It sounds more like a race car engine now. No Corvette except the 89 ZR1 which had a Lotus designed over cam top end ever had either one of these.
Chevy woke up one morning contemplating the fact that Italy was known for its very fast cars. Chevy realized that it would be mature of them to let it go and recognize that Lamborghini and Ferrari are just in a higher league than them. That same morning Chevy chose violence instead.

Not really, Corvettes & Porsches have always just about dominated way above their rivals . The C6 just about destroyed European brands.
The Z06 laid an epic lap at Laguna SECA back in 2012 it was so fast that motor-trend didn’t even bother to run the ZR1 until 2015 when the Viper GTS came out, the C6 ZR1 went and just about set the world on fire, the viper never recovered, they couldn’t even give them away. They shut down production.

That Z06 is impressive! Great video Emelia!
Bravo to GM for letting Emelia do her thing... this is the best marketing they could do. And if I'm not mistaken, isn't their a "Zora" or even faster 'Vette in the works? Corvette hit a homerun with the remake of the new Corvette. Awesome video! Straight down to business.
all of the C8 versions have been designed, developed and fully tested prior to any production and with the 'prototype' - first pre-production, camouflage vehicles through extensive testing prior to the first released for production Stingray for 2020 model year, and the C8-R for Corvette Racing.
This Z06/7 version is the closest to the C8-R, N/A used by Corvette Racing in IMSA, GT, LeMans -winning overall 1st/2nd with its debut in 2020, then repeat win in 2021 -> the classes changed for 2022, but still very competitive, though split between two within IMSA + FIA - LeMans.
The ZR1 is the next version with this same 5.5 L, flat-plane crank, DOHC engine, DCT, trans-axle w/ TT
The Zora is the version afterward with additional front wheel electric motors.
Also a GS version will be produced too, and apparently a fully electric motor version afterwards
->as other major manufactures are producing with performance vehicles in Europe and USA - seemingly Japan too - This is Global/Elite cooperation, direction, dictation, control.
Sincerely
Newton Firefly said it right, base stingray, Z06, ZR1 which is a TT Z06 with even more aero, a Zora which is a ZR1 with hybrid assist in the front, likely a grandsport which will be the stingray with electric assist, and an all electric eray likely based off the Z06 platform.
Marketing? good luck if you can order a c8z
And the Z06 is stock. I'm sure more power can be squeezed out. We'll see when the aftermarket guys and "tuners" (like LMR) get their hands on it.
Im sure the evo would have won if the driver knew wtf he was doing. Couldnt launch for crap and missed shifts
The Z06 and Evo sound good, the 458 is a symphony of sound.
I'm amazed by the Z06 honestly.
Her mods that affect the sound are just perfect.
That 458 has the benefit of an aftermarket exhaust.
Just wait until Akrapovic gets their hands on the Z06.
" I got the AC on and everything, in chillin" 😂😂😂 love it.
WOW I got chills when the Vett passed them both. How AWESOME!! What a car. Nice job Chevy and nice driving Em.

Vette walked a lambo completely stock. Chevy got it more than right with this one
I love how they built a better Ferrari/Lamborghini than the Italians did
@@jaydog2108 theres a reason why they didnt race it against a 488 pista or any 488 lol.
But lambo is lower on power vs the vette so why so surprised ? Put it against a 640-4 and it might be a bit different. Also lambo driver is always leaving late and hitting the rev limiter. Although a very nice video i think it does not depict the reality of racing a 640-4 huracan :)
@@jaydog2108 there insparation was a ferrari 458 wich is hilarious a 458 is a 12 year old car comparing it with a unrealesed top of line corvette and the huracan was the slowest version of it for example huracan perfomante does 10.1 quarter mile and end of day this cars are not focused just on straight line perfomance some supercars wich are is 911 turbo s mclaren 720s but if she put thoose and corvette lost the audince wouldnt liked it thats why they counted round where a guy in a huracan is completly is messing up

I have a 2011 GS and just recently discovered your channel. What really separates you from all the rest, is the true enthusiasm you have and it shows on your face. Great job!
Agree 100%
458 is a great car, but let's face it, they quit making it almost 10 years ago, at this point I'd be disappointed if the corvette didn't beat it. You should find a 488 to run it with
Well GM benchmarks the 458 for the sound and its rawness, not speed. Also, the 488 runs about the same quarter mile as the vette.
The point was to compare the performance of NA motors. The 488 is turbocharged.
@@makstone I get that, I would like to see a side by side of the Z06 and the 488 for a true supercar comparison

My father always said nothing is faster than a corvette; and he is right. Great job GM, your the BEST!!
What's his experience or made him say that? Just curious
@@OiVinn-eq1ml He had a 1962 Corvette for a couple of years.
@@richardyewchuk1508 the a/c cobra drug the corvettes back in the day. But they were rare.
And now it's destroyed by "entry level" McLaren Artura made it look like a hatchback vs supercar sort of drag race 😂😂
They copied a Ferrari engine. They admit they done reverse engineering on a Ferrari engine!
The only critique I could make is that the other drivers were manually shifting when your weren’t. I’d like to see them all just keep it in drive to eliminate the human error of shifting improperly. Love the video though and the Z06 is impressive.
Evo was not manually shifting everytime
They had a race where they manually shifted then did a race where they let trans shift themselves.
Guy in the evo had absolutely no idea what he was doing lol
Corvette does not offer manual transmission! Don’t need it!
@@eddymartin5515 they meant the paddle shifters
Now that’s impressive. And your 458 looks so sick, love everything about it!
I dont understand why they are all manually shifting their cars which 90% of the time means suboptimal shift points... Which for a drag race means a lot... Id live to know how it would do in full auto
I see a lot of car channels doing this. Bang off the limiter and flick the paddles. Just stop. Reminds me of the drivers banging their VTEC Hondas off the limiter in the early 2000's while getting beat by my grandpa car. And then they'd say, "one more race, I can get you this time." 🙄
Same result.
Exactly why, I'm a Chevy man every since, I was a little boy!!! 😎
That is INSANE!! I didn't think that the Corvette would perform SO well, I figured the Z06 would be a great performer but this is on another level, now, I can't wait to see it outperform on the track and set some lap records!!
The C8-R already has been performing since 2020 in the GT class in LeMans, IMSA, FIA - also they have recorded performance at Nuremberg too, with each pre-production version before 2020 and since.
Sincerely
This is the best C8 Z06 challenge to date, fantastic job Emelia!
That was sort of bs. They picked an old 458 and a bloated Lambo. Why didn't they at least race a 3 year old Ferrari 488 Pista, or new Ferrari F8, each with over 700hp? I mean, fair is fair, and while the vette is cool, it's no new hypercar slayer.
And the C8 is almost 200K cheaper hahahaha
I feel like to really be fair we should be racing cars of the same year…her 458 is what a 2010 and the lambo is the rear wheel drive version which is considerably slower than the all wheel while the Vette isn’t even released yet...that being said, still an amazing car for the money.
Believe the evo is the newest huracan model, under the techinica or whatever it is
My thoughts exactly, the Evo came out in 2019 so really not a great comparo
@@pres10hk51 they choose a slowest huracan rwd evo lol

I truly thought it would have been closer.
Praying that you hit a million subscribers before Christmas. Would be an awesome present to give you.
Makes sense it’s a 13 year old 458 and the huracan is probably the slowest straight line supercar you can still buy. All the new ones like f8, sf90 and any mclaren are running low 10’s if not mid low 9’s. Even the 488 from 2015 has ran a 10.3 stock. I’m sure the z06 will do that in ideal conditions too but it’s a good 7 years behind in performance. Of course it’s still an amazing car and quick enough for anyone on the road, and sounds better than any car except for lambos
@@devinb3397Bruh, those cars are even more expensive. Also, if a Huracan cannot outdrag a high downforce Corvette, then what is it good at?

The good old boys did it again. Can’t wait to hear it with an aftermarket exhaust.
Why would you put an aftermarket on this? Just wondering. The amount of engineering that went into the stock exhaust is insane.
This is one of those few cars that might end up making less power with an aftermarket exhaust. The amount of engineering that went into this one is nuts.
They spent an enormous amount of time and money tuning this particular exhaust gir both performance and sound. More than any other manufacturer has that I know of. In this particular case, any aftermarket company is going to have a hard time matching it.
@@LazarusMastiffs also I'm wondering if an aftermarket system sounds less exotic....?
I'm thinking GM tuned it's stock exhaust to take advantage of this....? I'm sure the answer will come as soon as more public deliveries happen. That 458 sounds amazing!
It's not a muscle car...no need for ANY aftermarket exhaust

08:07 Given the way he lost the first race, with the Z06 pulling away the entire time, I don't understand his disbelief here in the second race. In fact, a roll race wasn't even necessary. The only chance he had (to make it closer, not win) was from a dig, with a better launch. Unfortunately, the guy's reaction time is slow as molasses.

The C8 is great but don't get too excited. Those to WOP cars were not close to latest and greatest to come out of Italy. One is a decade old and the other bloated and not the fastest Lambo. Try racing against Europe's best from 2022 and you should come back down to earth.
