You only get performance traction management if your Z51 is equipped with mag ride. If it's not, you only get stabilitrak mode/comp mode depicted in your video. Just saying. Make it a point to highlight that in your comments . Some people with non mag ride Z51 will be confused why they don't have the PTM feature.

Thanks for the clarification I assumed that was the case...I just bought a '16 Z06 vert with only 3 k miles and did not want the stage 3 aero (would have paid for the brakes had I found one) so did not consider the Z51 package. I'm an old guy who grew up in the muscle car era sliding them around dirt roads in rural Fl., so I know how to drive with loss of traction and the Z06 is pretty fun with the nanny aids off.

I turned everything off on my C7 Z51 and almost WRECKED that MOE FOE in less than 5 minutes.... The technology brewed inside these vehicles to keep them planted are absolutely under-rated... I'm only a Beast using the Stability and Traction control. It's a whole different car driving it without. Heck no I'm good.. I won't turn it off again. LOL.... For Real, For Real....

Don't feel bad. Every automotive journalist test driver has found they are faster with some of the assists turned on than everything turned off. The Corvette team has developed the single greatest TCS system in automotive history up to this point. Honestly, turning all the nannies off on the street is just a Chad move. The vast majority of driving enthusiasts on the road (myself included) do not have the skill set to handle a high performance automobile without any driver assists. Personally, my 2017 Z06 stays in touring mode with maximum assists. I can't afford to crash my dream car 😩

I'm not a proud person admittedness but I have a 2019 ZR1 Corvette and I drove for like 6 months and I thought That I knew the limit Of my experience with the car so far and was able to keep it under control but but unfortunately one time I was out of light and I thought I was putting Traction control on And unfortunately I didn't know it at the time what I really did was Talk to contraction control off. And the results We're not good when I took off The car all of a sudden spun out of control into traffic coming from the opposite direction. The end result ended up being $27000 worth of damage . Unfortunately this happened and it was only Exterior body part damage and no suspension or a frame damage but now my car Decrease it it's Value. So when Au Corvette owners out there that own 2019 ZR1 Corvette be very carefully out there

I've had my '19 Z06 that I bought brand new back at the end 2018 and I still don't have the b@lls to turn off the TC & Stabilitrak. I would consider that a death wish especially when driving on the city streets with traffic. The car is violently quick even with all the nannies turned on. I've yet to have any desire to want to mod it to make it go any faster than it already is. Best car I have ever owned by far 🤘

I have a 2015 Z 51 stingray at one thing that most all of these tutorial videos miss is that when you are in drive mode, and have the sport mode on if you stab the accelerator all the way to the floor real quick and let off it will automatically downshift the car to almost like a launch gear and then immediately stab right back into it it will send you sailing

Nice tutorial. I didn't know about the left paddle......however there is another facet to that that you didn't mention in the video. PERFORMANCE SHIFTING. By stomping the accelerator to the floor and immediately letting off it, the transmission also drops into the lowest gear for the speed you are at, and a message shows on the screen "PERFORMANCE SHIFTING ACTIVE". Forget the dang paddles, they are a gimmick and too slow. Performance shift mode upshifts AND downshifts faster than you can think it! The car truly becomes a beast (a dangerous beast if you have turned off stabilitrak). Try it....you'll love it.

i took the traction control off once and i was making a left turn at a light from being completely stopped and i was pushing the gas hard and my car spun out in a full 360 and i was lucky no cars were in the other lane. i actually like the traction on because i can gass it and as it looses control but i let go of the gas and it catches again perfect. im scared to take the traction control off after that incident where i could have crashed and died. i think majority of ppl die because they want to race on the fwy with the traction of and that is the worst thing you can do in a corvette!

Although this video isn't about previous generation corvettes.....anyone who buys a corvette needs to know one thing.....the car has more capability than you. Respect for the power and knowledge of the suspension are key to getting the most from your corvette. The corvette has more hip movement than Shakira on bald tires....so much to the point where traction and stability control won't help you. Taking traction control off is a recipe for destruction as inexperienced drivers get the full weaponized torque on demand.....which creates snap oversteer. Unlike ferraris...porsche and any other car that has its power focused higher in the rev range....the corvette has double in torque what many of those cars produce . Unleashing the power of the c7 is far safer than previous generations as the nannies are never truly off but respect for the corvette is key to not end up in a ditch

Champ - ever since the CTS-V in 2009, there has been a way to FULLY disable the nannies. The fact that you claim it's because GM doesn't want a lawsuit is a clear indicator that you've never actually spoken to any of the men and women involved with the design decisions for these cars. ANY car can kill you or anyone else if not used properly. To assert that you can't fully disable protective nannies because of fear of litigation is just silly - there are about 5 buhzillion ways for someone to hurt themselves with any car. Besides - you can simply read the owner's manual in either a brand new C7 or an 8 year old CTS-V or any number of other GM cars for this exact information. Or check out any number of enthusiast forums where questions just like this are hotly debated and more importantly, tested and verified. And the normally aspirated C7 doesn't have "double the torque" of every supercar like you claim. There is a huge array of engines, power levels, torque levels, and much more. Making sweeping generalizations is just bad practice. Your statement MIGHT be true in a few specific cases. The sad thing is that anyone can use Google to figure out you have no idea what you are talking about. Next time, do a little searching, gather some facts, and make sure what you are posting is accurate. It'll serve you well in all other aspects of life. Do you actually OWN a C7, Ferrari, or similar sports car?

This was a very informative video; I really like the new driving clips as well!! I don't own a Corvette (yet, but maybe someday 😁), but I found this pretty interesting to watch because I have a lot of similar features like this with my Challenger too. I did mean to ask, how do you like the 8 spd auto on your Stingray? I was torn between getting a 6 spd manual versus the 8 spd auto, but ended up buying the auto for my car because I realized it wasn't ideal for daily driving. I do like that these new automatics come with the fuel saving technology and the paddle shifters. Given all that, I am leaning again towards the automatic on the next car I buy, just because with all the power of the car, I think it would handle it better than I would with a manual gearbox.

best way to do that is pull the fuse that controls the exhaust valves. I did that right after we got our 2019 GS. We live in a rural area so noise is not an issue… no Karen’s to worry about 😂

Idk what I’m doing wrong. In my z06 I turn everything off and when I go to slide it it slides but almost immediately it cuts the drift. Even if I’m floored in 1st gear… same thing happens when I floor it from a dead stop. Does a weak mini burnout and that’s it. My m4 with less power would spin until I eased off the pedal

I just pulled the fuse. Truthfully the Vette exhaust is not all that loud in Track mode while normal driving. It only gets loud if you nail the pedal or keep it in a lower gear with the revs up. My Wife’s 2019 GT Mustang in Track mode exhaust is way louder.
