planeflyer21 Posted December 16, 2014 Report Posted December 16, 2014 Been quiet on the "Which is faster" front. Check this out: https://autos.yahoo.com/blogs/motoramic/watch-a-challenger-srt-hellcat-race-a-corvette-stingray--because-america-155111608.html
blue109 Posted December 16, 2014 Report Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) 1/4 mile blah. ill take that vette all day. if those few 10ths bother you, wait for the 600+ ZO7 Edited December 16, 2014 by blue109
washguy Posted December 16, 2014 Report Posted December 16, 2014 and they got the colors mixed up....vettes are always red!....chargers not so much :) Wash
98Z5V Posted December 16, 2014 Report Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) 1/4 mile blah. ill take that vette all day. if those few 10ths bother you, wait for the 600+ ZO7 There's already a 638hp supercharged Vette out there. The C6 ZR1 with the LS9 in it. If the follow through with the almost-2 year old rumor and really do make the 1,000hp Stingray, some people are gonna $hit. <thumbsup> http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2013/02/26/1000-hp-chevrolet-corvette-stingray-in-works/ Edited December 16, 2014 by 98Z5V
Sisco Posted December 16, 2014 Report Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) I would take a C7 ZO6 over a Hell Kitty any day. Straight line the Kitty might be a shade faster but through the curves it would be in my rear view mirror My standard C5 convertible can take on the SRT Challenger as it stands, at least with the drivers sround here. Hemi probably lucky you don't live here. Edited December 16, 2014 by Sisco
Sisco Posted December 16, 2014 Report Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) The next Corvette will be midengined, close to 1000 hp and named the "Zora". Also jut read a review of the new Charger Hellcat. It actually beats the Challenger Hellcat's times around a road course. Now that is a four door sedan I could come to love! Edited December 16, 2014 by Sisco
392heminut Posted December 16, 2014 Report Posted December 16, 2014 I'll take real steel over plastic fantastic any day!
edgecrusher Posted December 17, 2014 Report Posted December 17, 2014 I'll take real steel over plastic fantastic any day! I don't think either are steel...
Microgunner Posted December 18, 2014 Report Posted December 18, 2014 I'd take either one, but if I had to pay for them I'd take neither. Damn kids and their loud cars!
shibiwan Posted December 18, 2014 Report Posted December 18, 2014 I so want another M3... or M5 (the V10 one).....
MaDuce Posted December 18, 2014 Report Posted December 18, 2014 No surprise. But the Hellcat is ugly as sin while the new Corvette Stingray is pretty close to being among the prettiest cars on the road IMO. When it comes to drag racing, this is the match that initially really took me by surprise. And now that I'm driving one, that match only figures. These things don't have very good top speed but they accelerate insanely fast. A couple dozen times now I've gone from parked at a traffic light in the turn lane to going 50mph by the time I straightened out. I'm guessing around 2 seconds. And I wasn't racing, just trying to squeeze in.
392heminut Posted December 18, 2014 Report Posted December 18, 2014 You driving a new Z28? Or a Lamborghini ? Depends on which video game he's playing! <lmao>
unforgiven Posted December 18, 2014 Report Posted December 18, 2014 I want 2 of whatever he taking. :blink:
StainTrain Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 I drive a 98 Camaro It's like a Lambo....if you live in the South like me.... Hell, a Vega is like a Corvette around here.
Rsquared Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 A Vega? <lmao> Too damn funny. Is that the hatchback? Or the Sedan?
98Z5V Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 A couple dozen times now I've gone from parked at a traffic light in the turn lane to going 50mph by the time I straightened out. I'm guessing around 2 seconds. 0~50mph in 2.xx seconds didn't happen in that '98 Camaro of yours. I'm just sayin'...
StainTrain Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 A Vega? <lmao> Too damn funny. Is that the hatchback? Or the Sedan? Hatchback....these Dixie Darlings deserve to ride in style.
Rsquared Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 You're a true Southern Gentlemen then my brother.
StainTrain Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 0~50mph in 2.xx seconds didn't happen in that '98 Camaro of yours. I'm just sayin'... If it was being pulled by that Lamborghini.....maybe... Or a bad azz Plymouth Valiant....those Slant Six really give those high end sports cars a run for their money......all the while being family and budget friendly.
StainTrain Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 You're a true Southern Gentlemen then my brother. Thanks.....There is more to loving a woman that just making love to her.....sometimes you need an 8-track and vinyl seats.
Rsquared Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 Now, the slant six was the "iron lung" of the Mopar engines. You had to try to kill those damn things.
Rsquared Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 An 8 track? Yeah.......that was our generation. <laughs>
