Love the channel!! No bs, you went straight to the race I appreciate that. Also I’m very shocked by the results

[sorasd]

My guy said the details of the cars and went straight to the race I LOVE YOU 😂

[Bbc]

Love your channel, you get right down to the race, no time wasting!!

Gearing, aero, and weight. Can't fight physics.

Good runs. Was expecting to see the ZL1 keep up a little better.

[HTX-pkmu]

Doesn't matter which one you pick, I think we can all agree that the winner here is 'Murica! 🇺🇲

[pwr]

Both beautiful cars! Can't go wrong with either one.

As a previous Camaro owner and now a C7 Z06 owner, this makes sense. It's just physics, really. The A10 really helps the Camaro make up for its weight and that damn 5th gear in the A8 might as well be the parachute for the Corvette. You can see the pull coming to an almost complete stop once the Corvette got into 5th. Same power, lighter car, etc. Yeah, the aero on the 1LE doesn't help it at all and a regular ZL1 would have put up more of a fight but, I think the results would have been nearly the same.

Damn, the 10 speed didn't make up the 400lb difference. Good run, for science, of course lol

Awesome races dude, great cars running great cars. The ZL1 is so aggressive looking, I'm surprised at how the ZO6 pulled away the way it did. I've got the '17 ZL1 10sp and I've raced the ZO6 both the manual and the auto, I've beat the 7sp manual ZO6 by 1/2 a car length to 140mph, and lost to the auto ZO6 but not as bad as this. Great stuff on your channel, keep it up. How you're able to get these new cars to race I don't know but it's awesome.

This was a good match up. Nice video! If you find a non 1LE ZL1 10 speed, you should do the race again to see how much of an actual difference it makes.

[CPAJayhawk]

You could tell the guy in the Camaro was just punching it and loosing that initial ground... he needs to manually start in the correct gear

[dmcepeda]

Nice comparison. I've been wondering how the new 10 speed compared to the 8 speed

[josephhernandez]

Now imagine if the corvette had the 10 speed auto!! 😱

[justinweng]

I honestly expected it to be a little closer than that.

[walterlawson]

Definitely good video / that A8 like other comments below. I remember article from GM that model was design and built to at least try to close the gap of PDK ( porsche) so it shifts quick!!

[frenchiewooh]

10 speed is good for track…8 speed is good for highway racing

[marcovanni]

Good race but was expecting the ZL1 to do better. Gear box makes a big difference ✌️

[izxeeph]

Gear ratio is 2.41 for the z06 and 2.85 for the ZL1. I would have expected the ZL1 to have jumped a little harder given this.
