Just returned from Daytona, our usual annual father and son trip for the Rolex 24.. All the hype was around the new C8-R Vettes for sure! I was very unimpressed of the sound and performance from them honestly... nothing beats the sound of that American V8 roaring down the back stretch at over 6500rpm like last years C7-R. Now it gets lost in the crowd with that flat plane 5.5 and sounds like another Porsche or other foreign sports car. Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge European sports car fan and love Porsche and BMW but there was always something so beautiful about those Vettes...not anymore...
I guess it at least sounded better than those EcoBoost V6's in the Ford GT's, and I'm a huge Ford guy! lol
Of course tons of Hype about Kyle Busch in the Lexus, sissy boy was the only one that didn't come out on stage for the Driver/team intros! I guess he was too good for that. I've never liked the guy and this just proved me even more right.
If you've never seen a Rolex, I highly suggest it! Well worth the trip even if you aren't an IMSA fan!
