Corvette C7 Z06 Manual Chasing a C6 Z06 on the Cherohala Skyway

[@swappedoutZ71]

The c6z is a hard car to keep up with, even for fellow corvettes of a different year. I gotta get one. Starting to think it's the best thing gm ever made

[@ssoffshore5111]

It might not be the most refined, and the valve issue is real, but light, raw, and so fun to drive! I've been using mine as a DD for years, I still love driving it.

[@Doing_The_Thing]

Both great cars in their own respects. LS7 is a beast of an engine once you address the valvetrain issues.

[@swappedoutZ71]

@@Doing_The_Thing well not just c6 and c7, I was speaking on all of them. the c5z is a personal favorite as well. I love them all the same but the c6z is definitely my top pick

[@ShinyBlackRims]

C6Z has potential with the way it is light compared to newer generations. Add more downforce and rigidity to make it handle better. Those are the improvements that GM made to C7Z. Though with C6Z, it has the potential to track better once mods are done to complement the light weight.

Really blessed to do this. I would just love to see in one of these.

Im 1.45 hrs away, debating on a run, i was up there today for Verizon. Blood mtn is so close but the cherahola is a work of art. Great runs! Great vettes! I got an ls3 cammed c5z

Skyway is such a nice compliment to TOD after you get a couple sessions in, feel like you’re giving your ride a nice relaxing jaunt.

[@fredrickmillstead2804]

Nice steady hands.😊

[@MaxSpeedMike]

Great runs!

[@Doing_The_Thing]

Thanks! Had a blast out there 🤙

[@pmonk1177]

What a run, how fast were you guys going? Also, I wish Corvettes still came in stickshift.

[@MO2DAKEY]

beef, its whats for dinner

[@dermer007]

awesome caption

[@user-dl8cs5od6y]

How do you get your camera to be setup like that? Would love to do the same for my car, what's the setup you're using if you don't mind me asking?

[@usmanshahid8277]

I would blur out the speed on your videos friend - pretty sick though

[@DreamWaves]

Nice! One of the only videos I've seen, of a spirited POV drive, in what sounds like a stock exhaust C7Z... People put a mic by the exhaust, which makes zero since. I wanna to hear what a stock C7Z sounds like from the inside - who the f'k cares what it sounds like if you're riding on the bumper???

[@Doing_The_Thing]

Appreciate the feedback. Yes the exhaust is 100% stock.

[@3jake5mee]

you can do the entire run in 2nd gear lol car is an animal. Love the video but this thing needs a highway to stretch its legs

[@markbaumgartner7261]

7.0 427 Big block makes a difference!

[@homeofinventions]

The C6 is a 427 small block.

Meanwhile, somewhere in Mexico..
