2020 GT500 CFTP Destroys C8 Corvette - Motortrend Comparison Review

[02gtnh]

Again, GM has been putting rollbars, racing seats and 5 point harness in their test vehicles for years. No one on Fords side has been complaining.

As for rigidity, they only help if the base structure is flimsy. Considering the suspension on these vehicles are precisely tuned to the chassis, these structures aren’t doing shit for performance.

stop making stuff up. You show me where GM has had a magazine test there new car and came with a roll cage.

I thought this sh!t was settled. The Hyundai Volester won! Road & Track said so.

In my mind, it's always been the Hyundai.

You guys can play bench racing all you want, Randy Pobst was pretty clear which car was superior. The GT500,

“Once we tried the GT500 equipped with the Carbon Fiber Track package, however, it was all over for the street 'Vette. The CFTP Shelby is magic on the racetrack, wearing R-compound Sport Cup 2s, carbon wheels, lower and firmer springs/bars/shocks, a proper wing and hell-yes-they-work aero fitments, and much more. Fire it up, and the Shelby is long gone in a blaze of glory.”

until the next C8 incarnation shows up. heh. Maybe the GT500 will stay clear, maybe it'll "get it's doors blown off by 5 sec a lap" like it dished out to the Z51 C8. Who knows. who cares?!?!

Pick one, drive it till you can't take it any more.

Of course....GM's test vehicles are the ones with a cage, pulley, intake tune and race gas.....and their numbers are so impressive they're never duplicated in the real world..

Sounds like someone is huffing Race Gas too much

I really don't see a roll cage in the C8 like I do the GT500
