I don't know if it was C&D, but there was a video comparing the M2 to the C8 Stingray. And the Stingray demolished the M2, but there is no way it should have beat it by that much. They switched drivers, and the cars were near even after the 1/4 mi, then coming out of a u-turn even, somehow the SR pulls stupid lengths on the M2. Everyone who follows Corvettes knows the SR falls flat above 80 mph or so due to stupid gearing, so it should not pull on a G87 like it did in their "test".
