GREAT video. Do enjoy the multiple references to the GT-R and its warranty-trashing "Launch Control". Now ANYONE can get a 3.65 0-60 time in a Corvette.

I wish I had this on my CTS-V...though one of the tuners on the Cadillac forums has created an optimized tune for automatic Vs...in a portable handheld...and I intend to purchase it.

 

The General is going all out now... It's about time.

It would be nice the see launch control standard on the G8 GXP, and CTS-V as well.

 

nice!!! i love it... especially the mentions as already stated about not voiding your warranty... to nissan... checkmate... ahahaha

 

Very interesting. Corvette's are one of the few good things GM has to offer at the moment (Besides the CTS-V). I hope GM pulls through this hurricane, they have made alot of historic masterpieces and the Corvette is one of them.

 

Awesome video!!

 

Just watched again. I LOVED the demos of the various types of launches and why they were and were not good, and the geek analysis of the launches.

Damn, I want GM to survive JUST because of this kind of stuff. If it doesn't, I'm going to seriously consider hermetically sealing my V as the height of GM production, store it, and take it to a Mecum auction in 30 years.

 

You had better buy another one to do that with, and drive the hell out of the one you already have.

 

sweeeet.

regarding nissan, i remember reading a publication where they did 20 launches in a day and the tranny held up fine. so to bring in a GTR a few weeks later and complain of busted tranny, it's kind of inevitable if you're launching it 20+ times in a day. but that's beside the point.

the corvette's still panty-dropping awesome

 

Great video. Great references to the GT-R!

 

Cool.
