We recently lined up a stock Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 against a modified Ferrari SF90 Stradale producing roughly 1,200 horsepower thanks to tuning and supporting upgrades. With hybrid-assisted AWD, instant electric torque, and four-digit power, the SF90 looked like the favorite on paper. The ZR1, meanwhile, stayed completely stock and rear-wheel-drive, relying solely on boost, gearing, and traction. As soon as racing began, things got interesting. The SF90 left hard with electric torque off the hit, but the ZR1 came storming back through the mid-range and up top, laying down clean and repeatable passes. Run after run, the Corvette put the Read More
The battle between the new 2026 Corvette ZR1 and McLaren’s 765LT made for a killer 1/4 mile matchup, and the results speak for themselves. Featuring Chevrolet’s most powerful Corvette ever, the ZR1 comes to the line with a supercharged LT6 V8 reportedly putting down around 1,065 horsepower, giving it the kind of straight-line punch that has recently pushed it into hypercar territory. Lined up next to it is McLaren’s ultra-light 765LT, a twin-turbo V8 exotic rated at roughly 755 horsepower and well known for its balance, aerodynamics, and low curb weight—attributes that typically shine more on road courses than drag Read More
The new Corvette ZR1 has officially crossed into supercar—and even hypercar—territory. Clocking a staggering 9.2-second quarter mile at 153 MPH, this is no longer just a fast Corvette. This is a purpose-built weapon designed to dominate the drag strip while remaining shockingly usable. Controlled Violence Off the Line What makes this ZR1 run so impressive isn’t just the number—it’s how the car gets there. Despite monstrous power on tap, the ZR1 does an incredible job of regulating power in the lower gears, keeping the car planted instead of overwhelming the tires. The result is a clean, drama-free launch that feels Read More
By Harley Magden In the world of exotic car racing, matchups like this don’t come around often. The video pits a hybrid Corvette E-Ray (sometimes stylized “ERAY”) against the futuristic Lamborghini Revuelto in a quarter-mile drag battle.

We recently took a 1,064-horsepower Chevrolet Corvette C8 ZR1 to the drag strip for a head-to-head race against my daily driver, the Tesla Model S Plaid. It was the ultimate gas vs. electric showdown—raw turbocharged power against silent, instant torque. Off the line, the ZR1 launched hard with rear-wheel drive fury, while the Plaid responded with its trademark all-wheel grip and seamless acceleration. As we tore down the quarter-mile, it was neck and neck, each car pushing the limits in its own way. This wasn’t just a race—it was a clash of two eras, and a look at where performance Read More

The ZR1, pushing an incredible 1,064 horsepower through its rear wheels, represents a raw, unapologetic approach to speed. In contrast, the Lamborghini Revuelto brings 1,001 horsepower to the table with a high-tech V12 hybrid powertrain and the added grip of all-wheel drive.

By John Kastellic This clip comes courtesy of Top Gear. Editor-at-Large Jason Barlow will give us the rundown of the latest entry level Lamborghini model. Afterwards, Jason will hit the track for some high-powered shenanigans. Taking the place of the naturally aspirated V10 Huracan, the Temerario takes a slightly different approach to momentum. At a curb weight of 3,726-pounds, the Temerario utilizes a twin turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine and a trio of axial-flux electric motors to generate the equivalent of 907hp. The internal combustion engine features a flat plane crankshaft and titanium connecting rods allowing it to rev to Read More
