Then what is the big problem with it? If the weight is a wash? Obviously MT didn't have a problem with it like they did with the C8 track alignment right?

Look at it this way. You really need to option the C8 to the mid 70k range to get the Corvette you would want, there is a reason most will purchase this car in the 75-80k range and not 59k. This puts...

So when Camaro bumped HP to 580 then 650 were they targeting Corvette or were they upping the bar against the Mustang?

Not surprised by the article and likely will be the reason you will not find any 59k specials sitting on the dealer lots. The near 80k optioned C8 will be the sweet spot for consumer and manufacturer.

Well that about wraps it up Base will handle a C8 on the strip or track, CF package will destroy the C8 on the track and Randy says Forget about the Camaro.

I guess the 500 is a complete failure :)
