I have been near that many many times (but never over 150) when I had my 2002 Z06 and used to track it. And that is the most chill moment on the lap since you are going down the straight. It gets tense when you are slowing down for the next turn at 140+. Cooked the brakes a couple times and overshot the turn after the straight and went agricultural. The new Vettes can easily do 150+ on most large tracks on the straight with a decent driver, and most Vette owners that track their C8s have done this every lap they have run.
That is just a warm up for us old guy's who drove to the track in a 200MPH Caddy!

Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. Just smile and walk away.

We waited 10 months for our 2022 C8 Z51 convertible when we ordered it, maybe the guy doesn’t have our patience?
Friend of ours got a C8 this summer. He always wanted a Vette and he loves his ride. It's not for me but I'm not him. Next year, he goes to Vegas for driving school and some special events. He's already been to school for general performance cars. This will be with a pro on a track in the same model Vette
One possible reason the Mecum buyer overpaid is the lead time. I think our friend waited well over a year (maybe 18 months) and he works for a Chevy dealer.

I find this quite comical. Some folks are concerned about why others wish to purchase a certain vehicle. Why would one want to fit a dead deer or a set of clubs in anything? Why would someone want a vehicle with a set of horns on the hood? Why would one want to drive under 55, or over 150, or buy a Porsche, Ford, Honda? etc., etc. Good grief Charlie Brown. Y'all are killin' me.
