I'm not sure how to approach this comment. The Corvette is an IRS car - which normally suck compared to solid rear axle when it comes to drags. But it is far from the most dangerous car on the road. They are pretty amazingly stable for a RWD platform actually.

This is a silly comment as the quickest AWD car in the world is touching 6.5's in the 1/4. RWD cars are and will always be much quicker than AWD cars at the limit. For stock or minor mods cars - yes - AWD will be an advantage (on the street). But add a tire to C7Z and a healthy burn out and the advantage goes back to the RWD car.

The F90 is no joke, my car is pushing 750 to the wheels and even then I don't know if I'd want to line up with a stock one even on a perfect day

I believe the quickest legit stock C7Z is in the 10.4's range with unicorn DA and star dust track prep with a tire. So that isn't too shabby. The F90 is a super stout platform - and for even a stock car - it is putting in some solid numbers. I have trapped 129.5 MPH. With a reasonable 60' - that is a solid mid 10 second car all day.
