Triton? Any speed records like that with a Tesla? C8 Z06 was never made to be a massive top speed monster. If it’s geared any taller it actually slows down.

Gold Member BOHICA Posted December 15, 2022 Author Gold Member Share Posted December 15, 2022 Corvette is a knock off of 5.2 voodoo.

The GT has its dna streaming back to Ford’s commitment to spank Ferrari in the “60’s. The tech from that commitment has evolved over the years. It came from a passionate desire from the top brass at Ford. The GT transcends the halo car. It’s really in a class of its own. GM has no comparative history of such a car or passionate desire to build one. As long as there’s Ford there will be a GT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
