Bro cant handle the car and still complains about it. Its not a gt3 rs. Its a corvette. Sure its track car but the main selling point of the zo6 is the cool engine for the value.

As a new owner what upsets me is Chevy is over producing the Z06. They promised no more than 20% of total C8 production and they’re up to 36%
@Inferno453 ай бұрын
Screw that. Thats a good thing cuz they will be cheaper on the used market. And since there is no manual they wont go up crazy in value unless the c8 is the last ice corvette

@@Inferno45 the problem is when you’re spending $200,000 on a car you expect the value to hold at least for a year or two. My $163,000 z07 is selling for $140,000 now. That’s unacceptable for this quality of car. I sold it and bought a huracan

Z mode is just a mode memory, it was set up to remember Race mode for power, suspension, steering, then I turned off stability control manually after that. GM engineers I've talked to since confirmed that I had everything fully off except ABS.

Have you driven a C7 06? How would you compare them?
@howardchen34564 ай бұрын
It’s completely different. The auto c7 z feels faster than the c8 z on launch because of the low down torque. C8 hooks up better with the weight over the rear and sharper turn in. Intoxicating sounds from the flat plane chasing revs higher and higher. Dual clutch is way better than the c7 auto 8 speed. The c8 has a much nicer interior and a great frunk for storing groceries or take out. If you go c7, the manual is a better car. It’s noticeably slower than the auto but way more fun and engaging to drive.

Was it in PTM Race? That's a pretty generous mode that allows a good bit of slip. I've heard from owners that there's further ways to turn all assists off, but I don't know what they are. Great laps!

I think the throttle response mapping is different between the various PTM levels of track mode versus setting everything to max on Zee mode and turning ECS off. If you get an opportunity to drive another z06, don’t mess with Z mode. Simply choose track mode, then race 1 or race 2 PTM. I think race 2 has all ECS truely off with the most aggressive throttle mapping.
@technobraingeek18614 ай бұрын
From the manual… HIGH-PERFORMANCE DRIVING FEATURES PTM MODES+ PTM 1 - WET is for wet or damp conditions. ESC is on and engine power is reduced based on conditions. PTM 2 - DRY is for dry conditions. ESC is on and engine power is slightly reduced. PTM 3 - SPORT 1 is for dry conditions. ESC is on and additional engine power is available. PTM 4 - SPORT 2 is for dry conditions. ESC is off and engine power is the same as PM 3. PTM 5 - RACE is for dry conditions. ESC is off and additional engine power is available for maximum cornering speed.
