        When it was introduced they said 215+, 233 is certainly 215 plus. Makes me wonder what the Zora will do.

          My big question - why are the Mustang GT3 usually leading the C8R in and IMSA GTD Pro race ?

            Gary:Simply B O P (Balance of performance) Rules. IMSA sets weight/fuel intake/+ more. This
            Series is not a race series but a political game. They do not want the Corvette to win. JMHO

                Would not be surprised if Chevrolet/Pratt will drop out of this series sooner then later. They
                are finding out the hard way that if your Engineering Staff is working hard and makes the car
                faster and more reliable the series (IMSA) will just take it away with a "stroke of the pen".
                I say get out now. JMHO>Larry

                  Makes up for Marks 2018 pace car incident. Unfortunate.

                    Love it or hate it BOP is a major reason for the renaissance for sports car racing in the US. Fields and manufacturer counts have never been bigger.

                      Remember the Callaway Sledgehammer? In 1988 that car did 254 MPH with a "paltry" 880 horsepower! This new Z has alot more downforce. Really impressive, what GM has been able to do with the C8 variations. I've never cried uncle on horsepower, but my 670 horse C8 Z06 feels plenty brutal when you jump on it. 1,064 horsepower would be nice but you run out of real estate very fast.

                        Chris: Will just agree to disagree. If there was a objective set computer doing it;it might work. When the human being is doing
                        this it becomes a complete disaster as they are influenced/biased/and possibly paid. How do I know it is not working>Just look
                        at the finish of almost all races. The winner is almost a whole lap ahead of 90% of the field. Compare this with NASCAR where
                        the whole field at the end is within seconds of the winner. Thanks>Larry
