Was wondering same. My grand sport, which has same brakes in it, would fail if I braked too heavily consistently. Even the brake cooling packages installed in these isn't up to par for real track use.
Have you heard anyone with a Supercharged C7 having track problems? I want to take my Eforce SC GS M7 on track and maybe go 70-80% in that car, thoughts?
The huge tire footprint on cars like the Z06 and the Viper has always let them pull Gs that are unobtainable for many european and japanese sports cars but that advantage is only super prevalent on long sweepers like the carousel.
I am about to pull the trigger and buy a c6 z06 but I'm just contemplating also using that money for a down payment to buy f80 m3. I'm more of a weekend track warrior but something about the M3 just keeps pulling me back. Your video shows me how capable a used c6 z06 cam be at the track. Any issues with the car while running at the track?
+SGVFOOTBALL The Z06 is a very capable track car right out of the box and can be even better with just a few light upgrades (rotors, pads, seats). I have 22k miles on my 2009 and about 12 track days. Zero issues whatsoever. The car has never run into any temperature issues, even at 90 degree air temps. The valve issue is probably the most talked about item, but can be addressed with a head job at $2-3k. Mine is still under warranty, so the motor stays completely stock. The M3 and Z06 will be quite different experiences, but having a 7k rpm, 7 liter V8 is quite fun on the track. Maintenance is very reasonable for the Z06, which may not be the case for the BMW.
@@rmm2424 yes you do with heads ported and guides redone with a tune. Stock 15. After 30/35. I know because I did all I just said. Its common knowledge. My ARh 1 7/8 and x pipe after tune picked up 31 rwhp and 33 rwtq!! Can really feel it and the sound!
@@bobbysalinas4845 This isn't a race, this is just track days, purely for fun, you can drive as hard as you want, or let off and let someone catch up you may want to run with.
