In a surprising turn of events, the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 outperformed the much more expensive Maserati MC20 Cielo in a U-Drag race. The results highlight how performance is becoming increasingly accessible.
The Corvette Z06 and Maserati MC20 Cielo just squared off in an intense U- Drag Race . The results are surprising given the massive price gap between these two supercars. They also prove that automotive performance is more accessible than ever before. Two of the world's best-looking supercars just went head to head in a U- Drag Race . The Maserati MC20 Cielo and the Chevrolet C8 Corvette Z06 boast some serious power, exotic styling, and the ability to go over 200 mph .
In addition, you pay more, actually a lot more for the Maserati than you will for the Corvette. The Italian in this fight costs $371,450. The Corvette is a modest $147,800. In both races, the MC20 struggles to match the launch of the Corvette. That gap makes a huge difference throughout the race as the Corvette enters the braking zone faster, makes it through the turn quicker, and then wins each race without much struggle. The Z06 even lengthens the gap on the back straight of the race.
