BANNED & Too Hot: Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE! // Nürburgring

[@DanteGonxhja]

What a wonderful experience thank you Misha! Just to clarify the transmission issue is entirely my fault. I've done countless laps in other racetracks without stopping and overheating but this time I sent the car to a mechanic I shouldn't have and they did an awful job replacing my transmission oil, didn't drain the old oil properly and overfilled with new oil. Weirdly the transmission never did overheat in automatic performance shift mode. I will fix this issue and do some more upgrades to the car and hopefully I'll take it to the ring again with Misha.

[@GenkiElite]

Transmission issues aside. We could all see from the gigantic smile on your face that you were having the time of your life. in my opinion. Worth it. Sweet ride BTW.

[@cw_zl1]

The 1LE has a different Oil pan with a smaller stand pipe, so it does not hold as much fluid as the ZL1 transmission. Thats to reduce heat. I have a ZL1 with OEM Aero running at 840 hp. My engine oil gets kinda hot by that power. When I track on hockenheimring my max. trans temp is max. 95°C. (maybe because of less shifts or staying in auto). Do you know what temps for oil and trans you have on track? Chevy also recommends using 15W-50 engine oil on the zl1 and on the 1LE its even required by the G-Forces you have with its aero and tires.

[@DanteGonxhja]

[@drogenfeld]

I'd presume that because giving the shift command manually is unexpected for the car it has to deal with a harsher shift than when it decides on it's own when to shift. Just a guess though.

So this is not a 1LE..... its a ZL1 with 1LE aero. Its missing some stuff as in solid bushings, DSSV dampers, 19x11/19x12 rims. The 1LE also comes with larger brake rotors and pads. Title should be adjusted.

[@UrbanAggression]

I noticed as well. Fake 1LE

[@danieldickerson4838]

Yeah, I could tell immediately. The key way to spot a true ZL1 1LE is by looking at the strut towers underneath the hood, and the shocks. If both are blue, you’ve got a genuine ZLE. Don’t get it twisted, the ZL1 is still a beast on the track, and is much more friendly on the road as well. However, the ZL1 1LE may as well be a different car in the way it goes about road course duty. The latter was built for the *sole* purpose of track work, hence the DSSV dampers, the solid bushings, the lightweight wheels, thinner rear glass, Pratt n Miller designed aero, easily adjustable suspension/camber, and pizza-sized rotors.

[@kevins.3573]

ZL's with A10 get hot at the track. Forum's say that the biggest culprit is actual the engine oil getting to 300F. The engine, trans, differential share the engine coolant, so, if the engine gets super hot, it's heating your coolant, which is reducing its capacity to chill the ATF, in turn. Add an auxiliary engine oil cooler. Similarly, don't turn on the heat in the cabin, because, you'll just be adding more heat to the coolant thru the heater core, instead turn on the A/C to try to chill the coolant passing thru the cabin. GM says to change the ATF every 15 track hours, and changed the check requirements, for the 2020+ models, check the ATF at 172 F instead of previously 212 F. Some argue that over fill ATF is causing issues, however, don't bleed the ATF when it's hot or it'll risk being too low on ATF.

[@QBDLettuce]

6,500 RPM -> 5,500 RPM , only drops 1000 RPM after an upshift and it has to keep doing those shifts pretty much all the time at high RPM. It held up pretty well regardless. Including the engine which is a more traditional V8 that doesn't like (or need) high RPM, constantly near redline because of short gearing. And owner commented it was due to poor transmission maintenance/service from a shop, so considering that, held up quite well.

[@77cats-2]

128dB limit. That's quite lucky. The noise restriction is around 102-105 on UK circuits.

[@stevewix]

Those LT4s don't like RPM. Try targeting 3500-4000 at the bottom end and 5800 at the shift. It serves well to keep the heat out of the engine oil, intercooler and trans. The supercharger makes crazy low end torque.

@misha was really hoping to see you drive a real zl1 1le. Cause the 1le suspension for the track is what really makes the car.

I fell in love with the "Ihr wart zu lauuuuut💫" girl

[@JDeubel]

When I was at Sebring about a year and a half ago I noticed a 1080 ZL1 automatic and I noticed the two brick cooler in the front of his car I figured it was one for the transmission and one for a oil cooler I didn't realize they were both for the transmission they were probably the biggest size I ever seen used on A Streetcar sounds like this guy could use also he should get a extra large Chiller tank for the supercharger I've also seen people run a dual tank on that obviously fluid to the first Chiller and then into the second one back to the supercharger now these cars of course we're not under warranty in my opinion adding something to the vehicle that can't hurt it and helps with a heating issue should not be voided by warranty but they will If the dealership is that type

[@Ruudiii]

10:05 you can se a huge pile of smoke spitting out of the car, god damn

[@jamesclark4]

Chevy for ya

[@erik9108]

Clutches have left the building. Just completely gave up trying to grab the flywheel.

[@plektosgaming]

@@erik9108 Nope. That's (boiling) transmission oil overflowing out the relief valve and instantly vaporizing. Yummy!

[@Linknelson]

ZL1 1LE is one of my favorite cars, I have been waiting for you to drive one of these, such a sweet machine man.

[@stevenreddy6842]

Unfortunately you have to keep waiting, this wasn’t a real 1LE, it just had the aero from a 1LE.

[@danieldickerson4838]

@@stevenreddy6842 Correct!

[@Linknelson]

@@stevenreddy6842 Yeah I see that now, looks like a reg ZL1 with the added aero. Would like to see the 6 speed as well.

[@xaviercoupal682]

Everytime you drive cars with high torque you keep downshifting in 2nd gear and I can't understand why. Im pretty sure you loose couple seconds everytime and work the transmission more then it should just to rev 6k to 7k

[@johnlangley7521]

Love my LT1 Camaro !! :) not a fancy ZL1, runs a 1/4 in 11.9 @ 118 on all season run flats (245's at that)

[@ayushmalpeddi2793]

You're one of the few the break into 11s lol. Which dragstrip did you run it at?

[@lezioul]

10:17 dat smoke 😲

[@ryanwiese5280]

The fact that a race track has a sound limit is insane.

[@thomasbambrick1162]

Having a sound decibel limit at a race track is the equivalent to wiping before you poop! That's just stupid, it's a race track, there's nothing quiet about auto racing!

[@toddhumphries1371]

Exactly! Guess they're preparing for EV racing!

[@gordmalby2804]

They were out on the track during a tourist session, it becomes a public toll road with no speed restrictions, but vehicles must fall under public road rules for exhaust dbl's. The ban was for the rest of the day and they could return the next day and do it all over again.

[@TESTA-CC]

Ultra Smooth in the Corners Misch, Made The Driving Look Effortless 👌👌

[@deew6625]

Twin oil coolers on gearbox needed

[@jamesleicher]

was thinking that ,good aftermarket coolers might do the job

[@Clutch_Kick187]

Its a regular zl1, its not a real 1LE, just has a fake 1LE wing.. yes the 1LE's have extra coolers for engine, trans, & diff..

[@pokor5791]

It is like an old racing video game were your car is just faster than almost everyone.

[@BBRRAAAAAAPP]

Clutch packs and TC. @6:45 you can hear it start to slip/bump shift. Good ol' GM automatic transmissions.

[@TheV8Pumpkin]

I put 35k miles on my 10spd V8 in 2 years lol no issues at all and I drive spirited once a day 😅

[@BBRRAAAAAAPP]

@@TheV8Pumpkin they use the same transmissions in the half ton pickups and the story has always been the same. 4l60e’s we’re garbage, 6l80’s weren’t much better, 8sp came from factory with the wrong fluid and were known to shudder, and from what I’m hearing the 10sp hasn’t been the miracle they originally made it out to be.

[@TheV8Pumpkin]

@@BBRRAAAAAAPP I’ve heard the opposite so far, the 10r80 handles power very well. Ford-GM collabing turned out to be a great thing lol with trucks however it is the old story of if it doesn’t grenade in 25k miles you got one that will last for a long time

[@AutoPaparazziEU]

when you are banned on track take it to the street pefect logic

[@doctorpatient519]

I'm only half way thru the ride, but it's obvious the owner is have a gas of a time knowing his fabulous ride is in Misha's expert hands (and feet :) ... extra points for wearing a Yankee cap to the Ring!

[@xHeaveny]

"shift denied" never thought to see that from a car

[@michaelnastaszczuk7029]

Overheating Trans, it happens with intense track driving, solution is to add a additional external coolerwith fan after the primary, only draw back it will take a bit longer to warm the trans to driving temp on cold days

[@stefan514]

Is the car blowing out smoke around 9:50? Looks weird in the backwards camera

[@origaminefretami3480]

Even worse at 10:06

[@chickenfishhybrid44]

The owner said that they overfilled the trans fluid as the last service, so it was coming out of the breather and burning on exhaust

[@fknbastages]

Just change the filter when you upgrade the tranny cooler. This was the most fun I've had while riding with you. That car is insane. It was so fun watching you troll the Audi and Beemer. You really got into the zone after that sharp curve with the little back sliding out.

[@xiaoyu88]

transmission is heating up and none of them thought to like, chill and let it cool? irresponsible.

[@iamhozor]

as the old saying goes: "drive it like you stole it"

I always love seeing the how other drivers react to seeing American cars on the track, especially a Camaro, which I imagine is pretty uncommon there!
