holy fuck, are GM marketing executives are stupid as the fanboys?

GTR > GT
yup, they know the can't take the GT on a fair basis so they had to cheat
bump for answers
the sparco bucket seats are also lighter than the stock ones, it's such a shame GM has to cheat to compete
This whole thing is just about seats? Can't you just replace them?
lmao the Vette is still like 600lbs heavier even with the cheat seats. And it's still way the fuck faster. That's pathetic Ford.
Wearing a helmet on the streets while driving is illegal so technically every laptime is irrelevant.
>buys 120k car
>Changes the seat belts
>Owns half million dollar- 1 million dollar cars
Pretty cool
>he used the same image he used when he was defending ford in the last thread
so easy to spot the ford faggots these days! No imagination, just like the cars
this
>Seat belts make cars faster
Learn something new every day
>"pls pls believe our fake laptimes!!!"
no
Seems if it did a lap in that time, then no matter the accessories that is a real lap time.
You need a new argument, this one's not very good.
not production, not relevant, it was all a hoax
it is not a true production car, it was a fake marketing gimmick that failed
So? I'm sure people will drive them on the street. Still a real time since the car went round regardless of equipment...
>I'm sure people will drive them on the street.
and those customer cars won't be as fast as the one GM took to VIR
it is fake, it's not a true production car
>and those customer cars won't be as fast as the one GM took to VIR
Why not, no 5 point harness?
yup, unless they change the seats and add the harness, in which case
>modified cars
simply irrelevant to production talk
Hmm, all the big car mags seem to think the gt got smoked.
I'm sure you know better then all them.
>fake news
>70K Z06 was just over a second slower than a million ferd.
how is the ferd better again?
>chevy is either slower or has to cheat
>chevy is better
delusional
>v6
Little v for obvious reasons
to be faster than the competition
>no response
ragequit lol
lel gm fangirls killed themselves itt
You're right! We got them this time. Let's keep up the good work.
>Chebby put in more seatbelts so it's not a real production car
nice damage control
>still no response
I get it can be difficult to lose but it's much better to just accept it forth rite and move on. GM has beaten Ford. It's okay. Up until this point it has been FCA of all people running the show. Ford will have their day again. Maybe.
>GM has beaten Ford.
citation needed
>modified corvette that is not related to the production vehicle
citation still needed
>Thinking he knows more about the vehicle than some of the largest names in automotive media
I mean. Really?
not production
citation is still needed
How many HP will my shitbox gain from a racing belt?
If you even bothered to read the top gear article you'll notice that even though the zr1 in question is in production, it was destroying the new GT's pre-production model. In fact it specifies the only thing not-production about the zr1 is the harness. How much power do you reckon it adds?
>had to modify the corvette to compete
so it is not production
>not production GT
so we simply cannot make any assumptions about any of them being faster than the other
we can however compare race cars
>Ford so btfo they even said they won't be doing anymore track testing
I will never afford either car, so it's literally no skin off my cock.
nice delusion, they will test other models
>no skin off my cock
unless you are american of course
>2018 refreshed GT performance package loses to the old gen SS 1le
>120k boomer mobile with a seatbelt mod owns 500k racing legend
Kek I hope they can really step up honestly familia. Love watching the americans duke it out
...
>2018 refreshed GT performance package loses to the old gen SS 1le
nope, they didn't test the Performance Package 2 which actually compares to the 1le
>old gen
no such thing
>GM has to cheat again to compete with Ford
pathetic
>american
no need to name out your boogeyman, I am not american
try again
>The gt is brand new and costs more than the 1le, still lost
>The SS remains unchanged from the previous year, won anyways
>Seatbelt considered cheating but having a "track mode" to compete is considered fair
>Costs 5x as much
>Cleetus goes and buys said seatbelt and utterly embarrasses the GT
You really can't make this shit up
>GM has to cheat to beat the mustang
>GM has to cheat cheat to beat the GT
You literally can make it up and you are literally falling for it
>Now the camaro is cheating
>Nerd starts to overheat and flips the script
>"Hey cleetus, ima buy me a seatbelt and whoop this Le MANZ racing car that costs half a million dollaroos!"
I honestly hope Ford retaliates cause this is all comedy gold
>Let's modify our car to make it faster
It's like they were competing in some sort of race.
You girls just really need to accept the facts. it's going to be even harder to do once GM sets the Burg record.
the Performance Package 2 is comparable to the 1le, the test you are referring to tested the PP1
>having to compare the top of the line SS to a run of the mill GT
GM simply can't compete
no, that happened on daytona and they lost lol
the Corvette ZR1 is not street legal in europe either lol
now sperg at this fact aswell
>the Corvette ZR1 is not street legal in europe either lol
Doesn't matter. Laptimes are laptimes. Sorry you guys are so cucked.
>Ford has to make an even more expensive performance package just to compete (performance pack #1 is already more expensive! Still lost to the old gen camaro)
>To this day the zr1 has the record lap time at VIR set by an engineer
Jesus. I hope Ford claps back. I want to see this get brutal.
>"ARGH THE CORVETTE IS FASTER THAN ANYTHING EVER MADE!!!"
lol poor kid having an autistic meltdown, the corvette 'ring record will be irrelevant because it is not street legal.
>you guys
no need to name your other boogeyman, I am not european
>the Corvette ZR1 is not street legal in europe either lol
who the fuck cares
It was stock with a couple added safety features: harness bar, 5 point harness. It doesn't add anything to the speed of the car, only makes it a little safer if the driver had accidentally hit the wall.
>are GT fans really this btfo about this?
Technically the added weight of those items will only make the car slower. Of course Ford brainlets think this is cheating.
>"C-HEVY SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE AN ADVANTAGE SO THAT IT CAN ACTUALLY COMPETE!!"
lmao, look at this poor kid trying to justify GM's poor performance
in order for the laptime to be relevant it must be street legal
hello busrider
five point harnesses increase driver performance and make driving easier, they also changed the seats which are lighter than the stock ones
Bruh the zr1 is 300-400k cheaper, doesn't have a carbon tub, doesn't have two turbos, doesn't have a dedicated track mode, didn't even win LeMans, and you're telling me it has an advantage cause of a seatbelt? That's some serious clutch on those straws
Really though I hope Ford responds instead of ignoring it like they have recently stated
>they also changed the seats which are lighter than the stock ones
And yet it's still 600lbs heavier than the ford...
>700hp ecoboost
>400lbs
700hp Vette engine
>500lbs
Getting destroyed by a heavy truck engine... Priceless.
>this post
holy fuck lol, GM knows their fanbase is really this stupid, that's why they can get away with cheating without facing any consequences, GM changed the stock seats and added buckets seats, which are lighter by almost 30 lbs each
>GM fangirls are unironically this fucking retarded
>"I am poor so that makes the corvette better!"
>it's 600lbs heavier
because GM can't make a proper sports car
>b-but its faster
nope, not production
As soon as the Boomers finally die from horrific abuse in nursing homes at the hands of their brown and black pets they love so much, this ugly piece of shit car will finally die. And I can't wait.
I fucking hate Corvettes with a passion. They are ugly, cheap, Boomer-cuck machines, and poorly manufactured pieces of crap. I would rather buy a 2000 Porsche Boxster for $12k and drive that.
Whoa I didn't know the vette was 600 pounds heavier. Good to know that it only takes a seatbelt to embarrass the half million dollar GT despite all these flaws from cleetus' chebby. And it was driven by an engineer, not Ford's racecar driver.
I'm crossing my fingers for Ford. We need this kind of banter. Keep responding because it's making my Saturday night hysterical.
now this is pure butthurt
>the corvette is 600 lbs heavier
no wonder it is always embarrassed by Ford when GM can't cheat
>And it was driven by an engineer, not Ford's racecar driver.
because GM drivers are fucking retarded hahaha

Why are you melting down over a seat belt and then proceeding to post race cars?
Harley Davison can go to hell too.
>"pls pls do not remind me GM can't compete unless they are cheating;_;!!"
lol
want a napkin to wipe those tears?
There's no tears on the moon ;)
>a hollywood studio
you get another chance at coming up with a coherent argument, don't fuck it up this time
>GM cuck ragequitted
lol
This is a good post. Unlike other people trying to make others feel bad about their opinion on a car, you give your opinion on why you dislike it. I respect your decision, user.
Fords and their parts are hauled around by GM locomotives. Ford's records are irrelevant. Sperg harder.
Thank you kind sir
absolutely abhorrent post, no way you have more than a couple of neurons
why do you even try to shitpost with the pros when you are this fucking retarded?
I can't believe that buying a 120k car results in the spanking of all that hypercars. Gm doing something right to say the least
A 130k BMW m4 gts doesn't even compare
You don't even need the $120 Vette. The $60k Camaro still keeps up with that lump of shit.
Hey, I watched this picture get taken
>yuros can't have the ZR1 because it doesn't meet hood height regulations
>hood height regulations
Why is Europe such a laughingstock?
>america can't lap the ring in under 7 minutes
only laughing stock is you
>why is this dumb hick following me so close by?
>does he believe we are racing or something?
lol, the absolute state of GM cuckolds
