I assume it was done for the people actually attending the event in Orange County, rather than everyone else watching online. The internet isn't everyone afterall.

Oh no! Something doesn’t cater to the east coast. What a tragedy! How will Corvette recover from such a blunder?

Chevy provides spec information to the Corvette Museum for publishing. According to their website, Stingray - 3298, GS - 3428, Z06 - 3524. I originally thought the Stingrays were heavier also but was wrong..

I was actually thinking of slightly less hp for the new vette, since the engine will be at a smaller displacement (that is if there are no power adders). Making more power with a smaller engine cleanly will be difficult, but then again who knows what GM may have under their sleeves. The new vette should be an athletic wonder even with the current vette hp and torque numbers.

California is home to a lot of racing history, and Californians are Americans even if they don't think like you or me (sadly, it appears this is necessary to express these days).

I can't wait to see autonomous EVs race against each other. What manufacturer has better software engineers

Or split the difference (more or less) and hold it at the Corvette Museum, making people on both coasts compromise a little. Then again, after decades of having the NFL schedule Monday Night Football to cater to the west coast audience even for games between two east coast teams (how many people in Seattle and San Francisco REALLY care when the Giants and Eagles play each other?), I should be used to the right coast being disregarded in favor of the left. I guess I'll find out how the reveal went tomorrow morning. Thanks, GM. |
