I hope the C8 drives better than the C7. I have not driven a C8. And have no current plans to do so.
And then there is Jeremy Clarkson driving a ZR1.

The trouble is, if you go beyond the limit, it becomes almost unbelievably difficult to control.
C7 having a higher limit but more difficult to control at the edge compared to 6th Gen Camaro is also something I have heard about, but haven't verified myself. Too bad my C7 Z51 died way before I could take it to a track, but I also wouldn't be in a 6th Gen Camaro if it's still alive. Maybe when I get a chance in the future, I could talk to a C7 GS guy I know and we can swap cars.
