Launch Control - Tips, Modes, 0-60 Runs

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In this video, I talk about how to enter the service mode, SD card size, and Launch Control (tips, what modes Launch Control is available in) and try my first 0-60 runs and an attempted peel out.
Note: For each run, I made sure there were no other vehicles around me. When on the two lane roads there were no other vehicles visible in front or behind me at all. With flat roads, I had great visibility. In addition, speed limits on the roads I used were 70, 65, and 55. I know none of this is visible to those watching, but I made sure I wasn't putting anyone else at risk in my 0-60 runs. Now, for the 1/4 mile runs, I definitely want to demonstrate those, but plan to do so on a track.

    Jeremy. Great vid! Question: Does a non-Z51 have PTM if it has FE2 (MRSC) suspension? Does that make a difference in settings you can achieve for Launch Control? Final question: I would think the different rear diff gear in the Z51 would result in slightly better roll-out and launch times. Yes? No? - Gary

    Thank you! For 2021, yes, the non-Z51 FE2 has PTM. Use can use launch control in Sport and all PTM modes. And yes, I believe you are correct. Our Z51 launches have consistently been a little quicker than our non-Z51 launches.

    Got couple questions I always wondered about those. Those 0 to 60 times are with in-car timer right? I heard it's not that accurate. So has anyone got draggy or similar app and tested out the 0 to 60mph? And I am interested in stock tires and on street for the 0 to 60mph (not at drag strip with prepped surface etc) Is it close to 2.8?! Because very few cars can do that on the street so I am trying to find out!!! If so that's very impressive! (also how off is the in-car timer? but for PDR it's pretty accurate right?) Another question is I think to get the fastest 0 to 60 you need to turn everything off, so in track mode and with everything off. But is that dangerous on the street and drag strip with stability off? Will the car go out of control easily or not bad and it's manageable? Interested in your experiences etc. thanks for your help

    It's pretty accurate, but I have noticed that the DIC displayed time and the PDR displayed times can differ by about 0.2 seconds at times. You don't have to turn everythign off in track mode to get the best time. I've seen some get their best times in Sport mode!

    Jeremy, Are there any other constraints that are put on the C8 Z51 Launch Control? I've noticed that if I'm on a hill (about 5% grade or more) that 1,700 RPMs is all I get. YES - the brake is MASHED to the floor ;-)... just back from Spring Mtn - Rick M says hi!
