I was just messin with you. I actually agree with the general point you were making. Should have added an emoji I guess. It's just that's the first thing that popped into my head when you said they don't make mistakes and it made me laugh.

That's about as close as we will get to seeing our final ride height!

Is it me or did the Z hold the gear for considerably longer than the 1LE at the end of this video?

Which part? The only time I think I hear s/c whine is that same clip when it enters the turn.

I still think it's LT4 powered but I'm surprised we don't have any clips where it's more clear yet.

Personally, I hear it around the 2:53 and 3:07 marks

No sweat. I'm like Sheldon Cooper when it comes to internet sarcasm. Sometimes it just goes right over my head.

Driver failure too, he came in way too hot...almost like he forgot the turn coming. Odd situation regardless.

Still will need to be lowered a little, but I could live with that for sure...better then the Chicago show car, that ride height was like a 4x4.

True. To clarify I never said these test drivers are errorless. I simply believe they are capable of much more consistent laps, with few to no errors on their best laps, unlike any of us.

Agreed. Could still use a little more drop, but much improved over the show car!

I don't think it's a big enough blade spoiler personally. I wish it were a tad more like the z28 wing.
