The 2015 Corvette Z06 is a supercharged monster with a
6.2-liter V8 engine with 650 horsepower and 650 lb-ft or torque at the ready.
It has a 0-62 MPH time of 3.1 seconds and will leave a lot of cars choking on
its dust. The less powerful McLaren MP4-12C should be on the list of cars that
will be left behind by this Corvette, but this video proves otherwise.
This clip features both a 2015 Corvette Z06 and a 2012 AMS
McLaren MP4-12C out on the open highway. It looks like someplace sunny and warm
with all those palm trees passing by in a blur, but the biggest blur is the
Corvette disappearing into the distance behind the McLaren. It’s absolutely no
contest as the two line up on the road and it looks like the Corvette driver
completely forgets that the car has a gas pedal.
Adding insult to injury, the driver of the Corvette is all
on his own without a passenger while the McLaren has someone in the passenger
seat filming the video. That adds a little extra weight and weight may be what
settles this match and gives the McLaren with its 625 horsepower and 433 lb-ft
of torque the win.
The Corvette weighs in at 3,524 pounds while the McLaren
comes in at 2,868 pounds. Combine that weight difference with the AMS tune and
you have the results in this video
