  • 0-60 2.6 seconds!!!!! Bonestock C8

    We literally got our C8 yesterday! It is BONESTOCK! We took it out to test it on the street tonight and after several, SEVERAL (like 20) attempts of 3.9, 3.7, 3.5 and our fastest being 3.1 for a while. Then, finally, our last one, I hit it and ****!!!! it felt so good!! 2.6!!!!! It made my day, heck it made my YEAR! Let's hope this is a sign of an amazing 2021 with this awesome C8! I can't wait to take it to the track and hit some numbers and especially can't wait to do some upgrades on this bad boy!

        So you can do lunches without hitting the 500 mile breaking computer speed limit?

            Pretty good for day 2. Can't wait to see what numbers you see after all of the torque is unlocked @ 500 miles.

              I don't do launch controls but sure wouldn't do it with a new non broken in C8. If it is in fact a new C8 its hard to believe it could do 2.6 with the new car limiters.

                    If that was under the 500 miles break in as required by GM, I would think the warranty on the engine and DCT is gone in 2.6 seconds. Just wondering,,,,,,,,

                      When you go down hill the performance is always improved.

                          We drove it over 500 miles before it was launched.

                            This was a flat street where we race all the time. Definately not downhill.
