Cracks me up when people talk about mostly older guys buying Corvettes......then you consider Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini.....also driven by mostly old guys.....because that’s when they can finally afford them after spending their lives supporting wives and children before doing anything for themselves. It’s like the Jim Gaffigan joke....”Cops like donuts” which is a weird stereotype because you know who else likes donuts? Absolutely everyone.

@David-jh8mp 4 года назад

Absolutely right on. I currently own a C6Z06 vette with 2 kids in private school. Their tuition is like paying for another home mortgage. Plan is, after the kids get out of college then I can buy another home....nah! Just a new corvette ;)

@Jedi391 4 года назад

David I get it, I have 3 in private school. Giving people a hard time for buying a cool car after they’ve taken care of their family is basically the same as giving them a hard time for taking care of their family.

@stillsearching1284 4 года назад

@@Jedi391 why private school? Are the public schools in your area not good? Growing up, I attended public school. Most of my classmates parents had regular cars, but a few had sports cars. They always looked so cool when they picked their kids up in them.

@jackspeed3398 3 года назад

I live in Germany and am an old guy meanwhile puu time runs fast :). When i was six, I saw for the first time a Corvette and sad to myself: one day I `ll buy a Corvette. 50 Years later we bought our first one, a black C6 competition. To learn everything about driving the Vette really fast , I took part in a driver training. Another guy my age had a C6 too, under his license plate was written: "Life begins, the dog is dead and the kids are out off home" - thats it - the same here :)

Bought a new 2019 Corvette Grand Sport, with a MANUAL TRANSMISSION, and it’s a great car! Huge, fantastic handling, and with the magnetic ride control, the car goes from track stiff to cruising smooth in an instant. My wife even asks when we can go for drives in the Corvette Grand Sport, and that rarely happens with my NSX. Buy one, if at all possible, life is short.

@TypeVertigo 4 года назад

That's a really nice C7. I love how it's just a tad oversteery out of turns, and how easy it seems to correct. Perhaps the zenith of the traditional "FR" Corvette formula, this was.

@biggboysouth 4 года назад

@@vegardulven9515 That horse power difference isn't necessarily true. Every dyno result I've been able to find on the supra shows that they are underrating their engines and that actually make more to the wheels than the factory numbers claim. They make around 360-380 HP to the wheels and about 400 ft lbs of torque. I think the difference in performance isn't the power but the fact that the corvette is known to have a great chassis stock and the supra has been reviewed as being very tail happy. This course rewards cornering speed and the corvette does that well.

I have lots of track days on my C7GS. The best setting for track for me is SPORT with T/C off. I run on 18x11 and 18x12.5 Forgeline which gives me more tire choices along with Powerstop Track Day pads. They are inexpensive with no fade or squeal. We'll see how it does against the new C8 this year. My guess would be not to good but I'm fine with that.

This owner changed out to dedicated track pads, but the system comes pretty great from Chevy. Of course, for a lot more $$, you can opt for the carbon ceramic package, but why would you?

@TechWithLukasz 4 года назад

Prot0n PS4S. Personally I run RE71Rs on my car street and track (8 days a year), but would not suggest those to you as they don’t last more than 6k. Cup2 guys on the track like the tires but they will have a short life around 6k, and driving in the rain you won’t be so happy especially because you have such wide tires that would be more prone to aqua planing. PS4S has plenty of grip 9/10 of a Cup 2 (good for a couple seconds on a track with a great driver), but the daily usability is severely compromised. Mostly street = street tires

@heydiahrea 4 года назад

I second that had PS4S’s got pretty good mileage out of them never tracked them but they were plenty grippy and still fine in the rain I have the pilot super sports right now and they don’t grip nearly as well

@Prot0n 4 года назад

lukasz wicher thanks for the input. I just bought spherical bearings from AMT. I think 4s will remove some of the harshness that I will get, but will they grip from 2 gear pulls? Right now on my old hockey puck tires I spin in 3rd on warm asphalt.

@TechWithLukasz 4 года назад

Prot0n tough time say, but the Cup2s will need some heat in them before they start to grip as well on the street. I think on the track after a couple warm up laps, the tires shouldn’t give you much issue.

Comes down to driver. I enjoy more the Z then the GS. It’s not like your foot is always on the floor. Like a idiot. I understand the whole balance theory. But when understanding your cars limits. You improve quickly.

@craigscott5661 4 года назад

I own a C7 Z06 manual and I’m not sure why you would want to buy a Grand Sport and not have the extra HP in a ZO6. Somebody that says a car is overpowered doesn’t know how to drive.

@jackh7550 4 года назад

Craig Scott I mean Dave is a former pro driver(touring car), randy post a pro driver( touring car driver) all say the same on balance the z06 has too much power for its chassis for track work. The other issue presented for road course work is the cooling problems. You run into both water temp and oil temp issues on certain tracks due to the heat. I understand in 2017+ they added a cooler for manual z06s but in my experience it hasn’t helped that much.

@craigscott5661 4 года назад

U Tube Surfer yea you forgot the other thing the Z06 is good for. Blowing the doors off the Grand Sport in a drag race.

@ricepony33 4 года назад

The abs ecu ices because the car sees the amount of slowing to be out of range.

@TypeVertigo 4 года назад

Maybe perhaps due to the aftermarket pads too?

@lapamful 4 года назад

I hate it when people give you their cars with worn out tyres. It just reduces the laptime and is pretty disrespectful.

@jeffwisener1378 4 года назад

Yeah, someone handing you the keys to their car to take on race track , if you wreck it, not insured and they are disrespectful? Sounds like you are ungrateful user.
