I'm 99% sure that Stingray was at Parts USA when I popped in and it did sound great. Best one I've heard so far.
That 'track' seems to me to be suited best for micro cars not huge Corvettes but interesting anyway so thanks for posting Pete

That's my previous one I had for 3 years before I PX for the E-Ray.
Actually as I also posted on the C8 FB group; Cool video overall. Good to see some UK ‘vs’ vids come up for C8s here and not just US LHDs. Can’t help how the weather is on the day, but it is more ‘UK accurate’ that way anyway
Some thoughts here on the comparison they showed...
That particular Stingray used for this video has Borla ATAK on it, AFE Headers, Attack Blue filter, Aerolarri wider forged wheels with 345 offset at the back. It also has a tune with increase of 49lb of torque and 45HP and increase throttle body response
The E-Ray on the timed lap is stock and had an almost depleted the battery and the ECU was running the car as a Stingray for approximately half of that lap. Boost Limited warning is easy to spot on the dashboard.
Probably the gap would be a few secs wider if it was a stock vs stock and the battery was more full for the E-Ray on the timed lap. Would be also interesting to see how they fair on a dry day, between them again and vs the other cars on that board they put up in the end

Hi Chris, Yes, I saw the video first on the C8 UK Owners FB where you are one of the Admins. So thought I would put it on here. See that your (old) modified Stingray is for sale on Autotrader at Lumen at the mo.

Gotcha and yes it is on sale with Lumen.
Got to say it felt very weird seeing it being driven on that video. I mean I enjoyed it being pushed, but weird with someone else on the wheel

Been eyeing that one since it came in last year the UK and was partially parked at IAM. GM marketing car with all bells and whistles. Only GM was driving it at times and basically I was begging GM to let me have it. Eventually via the help of Kris and Tilly managed to make it happen. Very thankful to GM and Lumen on this. It was the first in UK and first in customer hands.
Been busy getting some upgrades since I got it recently... some video links below from the good people at PARTS USA sorting exhaust, headers, cats, wing, etc. Then Wortec!

and I procrastinated over changing my C8 front plate mount to a US size
The mods sound amazing..
I'm in my office on Friday over the road from Parts USA so I'll probably call in and get mine booked in for a service.
