it looks very nice, but a corvette is supposed to to be fast on the track.
the camaro is the best engineered and refined platform of the lot, while it's slower ont he track than c7, it acheives that with 2 rear jumper seats, higher ground clearance. also both the tremec mt and 10s at is better on the camaro than either of the corvettes.
i have high hopes for the c8 after a few years and gm learns how to make rear drive cars. OTOH, battery vehicles will takeover as much better sports cars soon. |
When you say C8 feels bad, is it with the track alignment? Lots of complaints with C8's understeering is supposedly addressed with that. I have actually heard that this is a thing with MR cars, they are a bit more prone to understeering. Not sure if that's true.
I know that SS 1LE can keep up with a C7 Stingray Z51 on the track. It will lose to the GS, but it's not far behind and arguably a better value.
