The C8 Corvette is almost out, but that doesn't mean the C7 isn't still a great sports car. Especially the Z06. The biggest complaint was that the earlier year models would overheat easily on the track. Let's find out if Chevrolet fixed these issues.

Some slick driving man. I know there's a comment or two down there that tell you otherwise, but honestly, not many people push a 650+HP RWD car like you do. Most people just put around the track in an M3 or Miata and want to tell you how the world works. It's easy to drive a 400HP car around a track nice and smooth, it's a whole 'nother story to drive a supercar around a track without it trying to kill you. And I saw the way you caught that oversteer at 5:16 with such conviction, that takes skill, reflexes and experience. Keep it up, I love watching your videos.

exotixfan Most people have no business driving anything over 350hp around a track. This is why great drivers don’t go to the track with a 650hp car. Lastly the ZO6 like other Vetts is terrible on a track outside of pro driver at the wheel. It instills no confidence as he makes clear. A good driver can get a 911GTS around most tracks faster than the ZO6 because a Porsche has usable power. A Vett does not. Lastly the ZO6 made Consumer Reports list of 5 least reliable cars on earth.

One thing I noticed which is a really bad habit is not keeping your hands on 9 and 3. It's a keep tip, and helps quickly correct over/understeer instead of fumbling the wheel like you're doing when it slips a bit. It helps keep you in control of where the center position is without having to consciously remember.

@AllIsWell_22 5 лет назад
Excellent cinematography. As a former Auto C7 Z06 owner (previous to which were numerous M cars...), I implore you to drive a Manual ZL1 1LE. Heavier yes (by 300lbs) but it is the best blend of something that is much more raw and focused with kinematics that are better than the Corvette. It still has the Chevy ease of maintenance and 'reliability'. Take my word for what it is - the ZL1 1LE is calling your name and in every way - the best of all world's.
@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy
@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy 5 лет назад
I had a manual C7Z before I bought this one, but as I was buying this auto C7Z, I was on the fence with a few ZL1 1LE's. It seems that I made the wrong choice for a track car. At this point, I just hope that the C8 Corvette will make up for all the shortcomings.
@AllIsWell_22
@AllIsWell_22 5 лет назад
@@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy The short throw shifter in the ZL1 1LE will make you a believer. The MT in the C7 is garbage. As someone who put my money where my mouth is - I have the ZL1 1LE which is to do dual duty on street + track. Apart from the ride being a little harsh (DSSV) on the street (25% more stiffer than my E46 M3), the ZLE hits you with so much information. To quote Clarkson - you could run over a squirrel and know what it had for breakfast.

As much as you love Corvettes, you should definitely look at getting a C5 Z06 for around 20 grand and modifying to your heart's content. They used to go into autocross events a few years back bone stock and take first place all the time and some still do. They only weigh around 3000 pounds and handle so well it's unbelievable. Obviously stock vs stock the C7 Z06 is a much better car, but the C5 Z06 is the perfect "modder's Corvette". It's just a fantastic platform to build upon. But anyway, great video man, glad to see you uploading more content.
@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy
@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy 5 лет назад
The C5Z is a great track car. It's actually the way I feel like the Z06 should've been, a lightweight Corvette that could run circles around anything on a track. The C6Z has the same pedigree. I don't know what happened here with the C7Z, they just threw us a big curve ball with this one. Anyway, It's a good suggestion and I'll probably shop for one once my track build obsession comes full circle. For now, I have my eyes on an Alfa 4C for track work. They are starting to come down in price and supposedly offer a lot of potential in a super lightweight package.

@@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy According to Horsepower obsessed, this car has NEVER HAD PROPER ALIGNMENT from the factory. I believe it was tested this way on motor trends TWO test and their HEAD TO HEAD test against the Nissan GTR. I also believe you and many others have been driving around a car that is not only misaligned, but miscalibrated for your suspension settings. Everything alluded to in his video was observed in limit testing by motor trend. The heat shield protectors are crucial as well. The journalist and the test driver from motor trend described these problems exactly as suspension and alignment problems FROM THE FACTORY. I truly believe this car was never prepped properly in GMs mass production setting. Listen carefully to RANDY POBST describe BUMP STEER characteristics of the Z06. At high speed its lethal combined with a suspension setting not able to compensate with weight transfer.

If you have to turn the wheel more than your arms crossed, you need to fix your understeer or turn in faster and use the throttle to adjust your angle. Keep up the good work bro. You’ll get there.

That overheat issue is depressing the hell out of me. More depressing is that Chevrolet never corrected the problem with its consumers and have quickly tried to flash a shiny C8 to make us C7 Z06 owners forget about it. Honestly, this was an uncool move by GM. Most of us are going to be stuck with that car until we can catch up in payments to it’s depreciable value. Worse is they cloned the Z06 and made the Grandsport after it to keep the sales high meanwhile undermining its Z06 owners. Most of their potential C8 buyers are C7 owners. Those of us who have had problems with the car haven’t forgotten and it’s going to impact C8 sales if you ask me. Honestly, I’m not impressed with the C8 either. I’d think twice before running out there and snatching up a C8. Apparently that overheat issue continues at the drag strip as well, where other cars can run the quarter mile all day and not overheat. It’s a painful lesson but when people say there is a problem that’s inherent to the car, better listen.

Being new to the channel and this being the first video I see from you (C7 fan here as well), I feel like the intro doesn't live up to what you have to offer. Once you figure out a fitting intro/branding and get the track footage setup right, so it lives up to other parts of the video (before and after track footage), this channel could be one of the bests in terms of production quality. Keep up the good work mate! p.s. What are the colors of the cars 0:20-0:50 and 0:55-1:20? Are they the same car?

Thanks for the comment. So you're saying I need to improve the intro sequence some more? I definitely need to work on the track camera angles. I have to figure out a way to get telemetry overlays to the video because I think that would really enhance the feel. It's the same car throughout the video, I guess it's just a matter of different lighting (artificial vs. natural sunlight).

@@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy Oh I see, what is the name of the color of the car then actually? Yes, I meant only the very few seconds of the video, I think there is room to improve on finding a fitting visual representation (logo) of what you do on the channel (let alone it's like a formula car, where you don't really do cars like that as I have seen). Good luck in the future!

I use track mode all the time. I’m 63 and grew up with an xke death trap with no kind of assist except a vacuum brake assist lol. Love my zo6/zo7. Amazing handling and oversteer is easy to handle. 😊

Great job on the Z06 ! Here's the real ? Who wants a track car that's 90K plus but can overheat in a few laps? For that reason I'm out like a shark on shark tank ! The new ZL1 is a better deal ! Track it and never overheat ! And its cheaper ! I'm buying one !

Yes, I'm a big fan of the ZL1. I was on the fence between a Z06 and a ZL1 1LE. Looks like I made the wrong choice. Oh well!

So the cooling upgrade gm did on the 16+ A8’s didn’t solve the transmission cooling . Not too many track their cars hard like you just did. This was a great Vlog and test with the transmission ! Real cool 😎. Mine is a 19 A8 as well. I don’t think I’ll get this with spirit diving lol .
@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy
@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy 5 лет назад
It's the 17+ where they started trying to resolve the overheating issues. And they succeeded with the manuals. I think the automatics just suffer from lack of space to actually put the cooling. If you even just take it down a notch to 9/10's you won't have the heating issue. I wanted to see how much the car could take before it told me to stop 😄

I run Race mode (PTM5) in my ZL1 exclusively while on track. Let's the car get some rotation without letting you stuff it into a wall. It's actually quite brilliant in my opinion.

I know this is old, but my '16 z51has spent an entire day in 100F+ on a texas track day and the only thing that went wrong at all was my dad's GPS making us late back from lunch and missing one of the runs. It's now in the shop for some electrical gremlins, but otherwise, the only things I've had to do is tires and oil in my 1year/32k miles of ownership. Solid little machines.

Another superb video, interesting that you think its controllable when it steps out, many other experienced folks call them a handful. Although not C6 z06 level of handful.
@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy
@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy 5 лет назад
Thanks! I think what I meant by being controllable, is that it is predictable when it steps out. You can easily bring it back without being too dramatic. It's certainly a handful though.

The biggest problem IMO with the Z06 is the A8. Mine was tuned but still pails to my BMW with the ZF. You are right about the size though. Especially in very tight turns. Felt that before I blew my Engine in Coalinga. Roads there sucked.

That is not technically true. It is an incredible transmission that handles tons of power. Based on most of the bulletins I have read, it is mainly programming issues. They use complex algorithms so it is not a shock. I can find bulletins for transmission issues for just about every manufacturer. After they are re-flashed, it is usually not an issue.

Great video!! I've got the '17 Z06/07 with an A8. Never track it so not an issue, but good to know. Transmission eh? Hmmm...so I guess the catalytic converter shield I installed isn't really a solution. Haha...oh well. Like I say, no access to a track so I'll carry on. Love the car 😁

Man, love your videos! I currently own a 2018 Camaro 2SS 1LE 6M. I am now selling and going with a C7 Z06, I have not driven a a A8 or M7, I have watched a few videos of yours on both setups and a little confused. I do about 6 track days a year minimum and really not sure what transmission to go with? If you had to do it all again would you stick with auto? I am a very ex experienced road racer that has taken my two wheel experience and moved it to 4 wheels. I can drive hard in my 2SS 1LE 6M and just don’t know what to do with the extra 200HP in Manila or auto. What’s your suggestion if you were me? I do live in. Oklahoma where it’s hot is the summer months track days where I do most of my track days. Thanks and keep up the great work on your vids!👍
@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy

Thanks for the comment! 100% go with the manual. If I had to do it over, I'd go back to the manual as well. The 7MT in the Z06 is a really solid trans and it's satisfying especially getting an aftermarket short shifter kit. I had plans to track my A8 Z06 more but after having it overheat on me on two different track days (one of them being in this video), I have relinquished it to "GT" duty leaving me looking for another track toy for next season.
