New HPDE guy here. 2nd time ever on a track and 1st time at Barber was this weekend. Pretty well sorted C6Z. Got down to 1:42 by end of second day. Totally hooked. Watching your videos really helped. Much appreciated.

I love that facility! Beautiful track and surroundings including the landscaping, sculptures AND the world class museum. Just an oasis near Birmingham.

[@acceleratedcorvette5733]

I completely agree. It’s one of my favorite tracks. Thanks for watching

[@davidciesielski8251]

Wow! great driving!!! Really smart lines, no rushing to the apex... great work.

[@acceleratedcorvette5733]

Thanks David. Hope to see you at a track soon!

[@jwb4bb]

Great driving! Amazed you didn’t overheat.

[@acceleratedcorvette5733]

The C7Z does have some overheating issues on track but if you have the M7 those issues only show up when the outside temperature is above 90 degrees. Over 90 degrees my car will overheat after around 12 minutes of track time. Then I alternate cool down lap/ hot lap and keep having fun. The car and I enjoy the cooler track days! Thanks for watching

My 2019 ZO6, M7 has had no overheating issues on track in Texas. Maybe I am just lucky, but at Ron Fellows @ 114 degrees the 2019 I drove with A/C on had no issues either.

[@acceleratedcorvette5733]

@@joelpierce3940Gotta love the Z. At most tracks my car never overheats no matter the outside temperature but some tracks it will if it’s hot enough

[@EaziD]

Good work. I know some of the people you passed in this video. I wasn't there to see it in person but this vid will do.

[@acceleratedcorvette5733]

Cool, thanks

[@steveziki]

Nice but I am confused on the red-line upshifts. Can't say I've seen that before.

[@stangtrax]

Nice

[@Doing_The_Thing]

Great driving! Is this a Z07 package car? Starting to track my non-Z07 equipped Z and trying to figure out whether I can get away with scrubs / higher grip tires or stick to higher treadwear tires to match the softer suspension. Just snagged the DSC controller which I expect helps with the body control to an extent. Also, which size scrubs are you running? Thank you in advance

[@acceleratedcorvette5733]

Sorry for the late reply. I just saw your comment. In this video the car (non ZO7) was stock with Pirelli 305/660/18 front 325/680/18 rear

[@hyper1le486]

I'll going to Barber this coming weekend..i'll yank your chain if your going to be there. I drive a White ZL1 1LE #51..

[@acceleratedcorvette5733]

Sounds like fun but I’m not going this weekend. I’m waiting on a new catalytic converter. Mine cracked the last session. It’s on back order. I would delete it but I’m riding out this factory warranty till the end!

[@hyper1le486]

I'm getting rained out at Barber this weekend, My warranty ran out last month on my car. So now, C.A.I and full length Corsa exhaust is on its way...also I spoke with Todd on tires and wheels,, thanks for the hook up.

[@camonly849]

The short shifting hurt me a little

[@FASTFATBOY]

It doesn't make quicker lap times wringing it's neck on every shift
