The Chevrolet C8 Corvette Z06 is 1 of the most talked-about supercars of the previous two years but is it fast adequate or strong adequate to outsprint a mainstay of the junior supercar category, the Lamborghini Huracan?

Brooks from the DragInstances channel on YouTube lately pitted his Huracan Tecnica alongside a friend’s Corvette Z06 to uncover out. On paper, the two automobiles match up really effectively and in excellent circumstances, each can sprint down the quarter-mile in the mid-ten-second variety. Providing the Tecnica with its motivation is a five.two-liter naturally-aspirated V10 with 631 hp and 417 lb-ft (565 Nm) of torque driving the rear wheels. By comparison, the five.five-liter all-motor V8 of the Corvette Z06 generates 670 hp and 460 lb-ft (623 Nm).

In the very first race, the driver of the Z06 slightly jumped the start off but even nonetheless, the Lamborghini was in a position to maintain pace with the Corvette off the line and ultimately pass it as the speeds began to develop. The Italian stallion crossed the line in ten.five seconds compared to the 11.1-second time of the Z06.

The second race is significantly tighter. Both the Chevy and the Lambo rocket off the line, proving that you do not require forced induction or all-wheel drive to have a supercar capable of amazing acceleration. The Huracan narrowly took the victory, finishing the quarter-mile in ten.53 seconds at 130.62 mph (210.two km/h) compared to the ten.56 seconds at 128.ten mph (206.1 km/h) of the Corvette.

Things didn’t go really so effectively for the Corvette in the third and final race as it lost traction off the line and eventually ran a ten.995-second quarter mile compared to the ten.451 of the Huracan.
