Are you impressed with the C8 Corvette’s straight-line acceleration?

Enthusiasts seem to be pretty split on the C8 Corvette’s straight-line acceleration performance. That’s true even among the Corvette faithful.

The test is performed at the Johnny Bohmer Proving Grounds, which are located at Space Florida’s Launch and Landing Facility that’s at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Most of you are at least somewhat familiar with the facility.
