Bear in mind, Chevy disavowing it doesn't mean that number cannot be achieved or beaten when they do release a video and an official time. We will see...

Thought I would share... it's not a Porsche, but it's quite a car nonetheless. Still breaking in - and yes, it's factory warranty covers track use...

I think it posted a time on VIR that was 2 seconds faster than a 918.

Yeah - he had some fun with it at Willow. Lots of smoke - but he took it easy after that...at Angeles Crest Highway we both drove it and the C7 and had some more fun. He is a talented driver, for sure.

Golf that car looks good--congrats. Would love an honest compare and contrast to GT3. Keep us updated.
