Cheers to
SUPRA2JZGTE for sharing this street race with us. We're not too sure who's behind the wheel of the R8 but we think they might need driving lessons.
505hp of RWD American Muscle vs. 420hp of AWD German Engineering. Evidently, the Vette has it on paper and, judging by this video, in reality, too. Obviously a 500lb weight advantage gives the Z06 the edge as well, but we would have expected more from the R8.
Next match up? The ZR1 vs. the R8 V10. Oh, now that's gonna be fun.
Watch the
Z06 vs. R8 street race.
For a proper look at Audi's AWD supercar, you know who to watch:
