Predictions? i know it may be hard to do without shitposting, but i legitimately want to hear theories on what time it will get and why. they supposedly tested the Hybrid ZR1X based on a check list that mentions "charge+" which is referring to the battery of the Hybrid system.
Lap time drops tomorrow. this is the most anticipated /o/ related announcement since the C8 itself.
Inb4 GM fangirls brag about finally beating a 20 year old modified Infiniti G35 lol
inb4 freudian slips and MS paint lap times to cope with the C6 having already done it 15 years ago lmao!
>>28543477Wow that's fast, where can I buy a C6 SP?
>>28543486You can't, unlike the GTR Nismo it isn't a production car, it's a modified race car, I just post that image to cope when I get bullied by S/o/viet, not like it matters because the GT3 GTR is faster
>>28543486the same place you buy a camo coated pre production N attack prototype, or the SU7 Prototype.
or the same place you'd find a GT3 GTR's lap time quoted anywhere on the internet.
>>28543492I forgot to add: Or a Viper ACR with an aftermarket rollcage, a racetech seat and less interior panels, or a video of a C7 ZR1 lapping the ring faster than 7:08, or a pre-production Mustang GTD that Ford stated was not identical to the production version
>>28543499>or a video of a C7 ZR1 lapping the ring faster than 7:08why do we need that when some retard already slipped up and admitted its faster.
whoops.
>>28543502Where can I buy a Corvette with these exhaust pipes? I need them to be able to pass noise level regulations where I live because the regular ZR1 isn't allowed on track because it's too loud
>>28543504>I need them to be able to pass noise level regulations where I livewow, i didn't know they had noise restrictions in rural mexico! learn something new every day.
>>28543502>S/o/viet said so so it must be true, we don't need a video because S/o/viet said it happenedBased, I agree, S/o/viet is our master and we always obey him.

>>28543509Taco Bell only admitted it was true because his step daddy Jim Mero made him tell the truth.
>>28543514>N-no that's not what I meant!You literally just accepted you obey S/o/viet like a master
>Predictions
Some retarded GM fangirl will brag about a brand new 2026 MY Corvette with 1500 hp and 550 width tires finally beat a 20 year GTR and S/o/viet will bait them with this argument.
Screencap this post, I guarantee it will happen.
>>28543523I mean, surely it will lap the ring faster than 7:08 right?
The C6 zR1 didn't
The C7 z06 didn't
The C7 zr1 didn't
The C8 didn't
The C8 z06 didn't
Surely GM can't keep fucking shit up right???
>not a single fucking legitimate prediction
i'll start. i think it'll do somewhere in the neighborhood of 6:30. the Mustang GTD was way faster than i expected, especially considering Ford had never did a factory effort at the ring before, so this was entirely new territory for them. neither the mustang nor the S650 platform had been developed on the ring. so, this was an extremely impressive time for a two ton RWD car.
The ZR1X weighing less, making over 400 HP more, having better weight distribution, and being AWD. its like combining the strengths of the New NSX and Ferrari 458 together (two of the greatest mid engine cars of the twenty first century). it will undoubtedly be faster than the Mustang GTD. GM made sure of that. only question is, can it beat the 911 GT2 RS? that is another Benchmark GM deliberately had besides the 458 and NSX.
they basically took the combined strengths of Japan (new NSX technology), Italy (458 peak engine output), and Germany (911 anti lag twin turbo philosophy) and rolled it into a single car. in all seriousness, this will be the car to send off ICE. its the perfect /o/ car in every way.
>>28543553>a steel chassis base model C6 with some modsyes, on craigslist with some ebay parts.
>the C7 ZR1yes, you might pay a premium, but plenty of second hand examples.
The C6 dominated the fastest GTRs on its home track it was developed on in Japan. can't get more BTFO than that.
>>28543459 (OP)lots and lots of seething
should be hilarious, gonna make pics
>>28543544>The ZR1X weighing less,doubt that, being a hybrid and awd and all.
(pic not related ( but hilarious)
>>28543561>race carur hearts in the right place sweetie but on'y street legal production cars count.
learn to benchrace
>>28543461No one cares about a chink prototype car that won't be sold to the public. The fact that they brag about it is all the more reason to make some big, dumb American car shave off that time just like the British shaved off the Manchu queue ponytails off of Chinamen in the 1800s.
>>28543464To be fair, that GTR was an automotive cheat code. It put every automaker on notice and is the reason why supercars and hypercars are as insane as they are now.
The car had a reputation for being so user friendly that drivers would reach their limits before the car did.
>>28543569ZR1X weighs 3,800 lbs while the GTD weighs over 4000 lbs. the hybrid battery is smol, and doesn't actually add that much weight over a base corvette, which weighs 3600 lbs.
>>28543585all of the insane super cars and hyper cars use Hybrids systems like the NSX, not traditional transfer cases like the GTR.
>>28543585had a bigger reputation for being slower than the corvette lol
>>28543587>3,800light for how much car it is.
>>28543459 (OP)>Predictions?i do hope that it is slower than 7:08 so i can finally have my revenge on daddy prezo
cheating

>>28543489>You can't, unlike the GTR Nismo it isn't a production carAnd the GTR can't get a decent time without being stripped out, tuned, additional aero added, and basically being turned into a racecar.
>>28543728Also the n attack kit costs $90k to install so whoever bought that paid over $200k for a nissan that can't even be driven on the street.
they are so minbroken lol
>>28543569Where’s the Godzilla on that list?
>>28543587Pushrod "supercar". Luhmao.
>495hp from 6.2 liters (worse VE than a 15 year old camry)>parts bin slushbox tranny>no AWD>"fully defeatable" stability control on a MR 'box (literally just asking for it)im honestly shocked it's not some iron-block truck motor in there, because everything else is just as shitty.
You could glue two K24s (a fucking 25 year old design, btw) together in a vee and make more NA power than this thing with 2 liters less displacement.
>>28543824Says the little leech who always shows up in Corvette threads, desperate for attention.

and that's all she wrote.

>can't even beat a riced Beetle with less than half the power
>>28544391>1 second fasterembarrassing desu. another nail in the coffin for hybrid shit. just like the new M5 the hybrid system can't even make up for its own weight.
>weight
>power

none of that shit matters. Only the time and the price

>>28545951>>28547040The C7 overheats and dies though
>>28547035The ZR1 C7 didn't lap in 7:04 and the Nismo GTR wasn't modified.
>>28547237This info comes from https://fastestlaps.com/tracks/nordschleife
take it up with them.
>>28547237I know what you are saying tho. The driver came to that time cause he slipped in a double curve or something, But lets be real. its a Zr1 and he estimated its slower than the ACR Viper.
>>28547271I already did and the trannies didn't change anything lol
