I drive the C8 1.25 miles work and back -The Dallas traffic is super heavy everywhere-so many people have moved here.I have hopped onto the local hi-way and stomped on it a few times--it is actually scary -the upgraded tires stick so well it just hurtles ahead..it drops gears instantly and requires both hands on the steering wheel and any slick spot could be a disaster...I saw an in car video of one on some track with some high speed banking in Europe and it looked to more terrifying than fun--one little slip-up and you bought the farm as my dad always said-he actually beat Phil Hill in his private Gull Wing Mercedes and the factory Briggs Cunningham jaguars at Road America's first 500 mile race for the pole position in his street Corvette. He was a maestreo
Have you considered doing some baseline dyno runs? I’ve been curious how much horsepower is being delivered to the tires. My old 99 C5 rated at 345 hp made 317 hp to the tires on dyno at the LS fest in Bowling Green a number of years ago. Probably had close to 60k miles at the time so I was impressed.
By comparison and to not drift to far from motorcycles, my 99 Valkyrie made 93 rwhp the one and only time I had it on a dyno. Performed at a Victory dealer many years ago, everyone viewing the runs were impressed.
