What was the green and red light device over your dash?
In drizzling conditions like you were experiencing, I imagine it would be more difficult to drive fast.

Very interesting, I just noticed that the lap time of the Corvette C8 Z51 at LS per MT's Best driver's car performed by Randy Pobst is slower than the one previously posted by the 2017 Camaro SS1LE. That's amazing for the 6th gen Camaro
Corvette C8 Z51: 1:37.83 Camaro SS1LE: 1:37.77 Both of them on Summer street tires The SS1LE can lap faster than the C8 Z51 but it wouldn't be faster than the also N.A. C7 Grand Sport.

C8 Z51 --> 2:49.0 C7 Z51 --> 2:53.8 SS 1LE --> 2:54.8 With both on similar 200 treadwear tires, I'd expect the C7 Z51 and C8 Z51 to be a little bit faster on most tracks. The results we're comparing are also on different days, so makes the comparison a little murky.

That is incorrect, check the tires classification at tire rack, both are considered street tires: Eagle F1 SuperCar 3 - Extreme Summer performance. Michelin Pilot Sport 4S - Max performance tire.

But more to the point, the treadwear rating and ultimate (dry) capability of those two tires are much different. The F1 SC3 tire is definitely a more capable tire for track work.

GYSC3 were developed for the ZL1. They are "DOT street legal", but let's be realistic, BARELY street legal. They are a track focused tire that received DOT approval for street, that's all.
Get a massive rainstorm, not so good a street tire anymore!!! lol Awesome tire, love them. Street tires yes, but not like most others. |

The Corvette C7 Grand sport without the cup tires, has a faster lap time compared to the newer ME Corvette C8 Z51
