Hi folks. 1. Heat issues were due to non working intercooler pumps. Changing a faulty fuse solved the problem. TIKT cooling kit now workes perfekt. 2. Like the C55 it doesn´t like to shift when in rev-limiter. As said in vid, shifting at 6000rpm is sweetspot 3. Maybe the stability control was on. I cannot see the off sign in vid, maybe its just not on camera After this vid I did 120 more laps with it without any problems (until someone rammed me). TIKT package is definitely worth the money (and reason why I bought this car). Last but not least: Nürburgring Streckensicherung found the license plate and handed it to me 1hr later.

Until Misha cooked his tires lol.

After the inspection with TIKT, they suspected the intercooling system wasn´t working properly (secondary cooling pump failure) Overheated intake air -> ECU gives extra fuel to cool with fuel -> unburned fuel in exhaust -> burning fuel in exhaust, which melted the plate away. Apparently a relatively common issue among C7 Z06. We were pretty lucky that the car did not catch fire.

The early Z06s also had general heat soaking issues. They corrected it by adding more cooling and better venting for those coolers.

Yes, I had a 2019 auto Z06 and that doesn't even sound like the same transmission or car to me, that transmission was shot. Nothing like my car was. Thing was a complete monster and would just rip through the gears compared to that car. This video does the car no justice at all. Paddle shifters are worthless on the track, really just use them for dropping a gear on the street. The programming on the auto is really outstanding for the track once you get some seat time in it and just let it do its job. Not the best transmission out there but its a lot better than most on here are giving it credit for.

Unfortunate that you drove an auto vert. If you wanna drive a manual 2019 coupe lmk. Also the owner should've had you put the cluster in track mode. You can see all tire data+all temps.

I like how the supercharger note is exactly 1 octave above the engine, giving off a V12 like sound impression.

These superchargers are a bit overdriven for the stock cooler and so they will go into limp mode after 7-10 min of track use. A small intercooler upgrade will typically fix the issue.

I met this guy when I was there in June. He was asking me about Corvettes given that I was an American. I told him they had overheating issues. He really wanted something other than a Porsche or BMW.

The earlier C7 Corvette's had a known problem for overheating when they were pushed too hard . But I'm pretty sure that they fixed that by the end of the run .

The reason why it shifts so weird is because its hitting the rev limiter. I have a bmw m5 f90, and does the same thing when too late to shift. Other than that , the zf shifts very good.

Another great one Misha. Pretty sure there was also a well known overheating problem with this gen of Z06...?

Hopefully a C8 Z06 will be a much better experience with the transmission and cooling. I'd say it might even have more cooling than the Z06 or ZR1 with an NA engine, so it shouldn't have issues there.

This car needed actually better introduction. This ist not a stock c7 z06 by any means. It is a custom tune from TIKT for approx €40.000 ! With race cooling for €20.000. Bilstein race suspension with unibal joints. It should be a track tool and not having cooling issues! In theory, the practice we just saw… But explainable if the intercooler pump failed. What should not be are too hot exhausts from the safety enrichment. Either GM did not do a proper job here, or the car is tuned and the safety functions do not work properly.

Brilliant misha 👌 Shame about the malfunction Keeping up with a well driven Porsche is always impressive And it was certainly well driven( for the first half anyway ) Lovely car ,nice guy 👍

the z07 package helps alot with braking and handling

Flashing check engine most likely due to detonation and the computer reached the end of how much timing it can pull. Then of course it will go into a reduced power “limp” mode which is seen about halfway through the lap. Excessive detonation from high intake air temp which of course is from ineffective charge coolers. Can also happen if you don’t use 100 octane fuel for track use.

Nice, I want to see you take the C8 Z06(Z07) around the track!!!!!!

Something wrong with the transmission , maybe a new oil and filter will give it firmness

My old C7 z06 had a larger radiator, heat expansion tank, and it would still get hot lol.

What year is this car? If it's 2015 or older then it doesn't have the factory cooling improvements. I think 2016 and newer had the improved cooling. It does have the larger grille openings so I would imagine it has the improved cooling but I don't know...

We in Germany say':Ist halt kein Porsche' 😅

One of the best looking cabs of modern "muscle cars" with the "aero kit", or what ever is it called, I can't remember.

And the car didn't even have Cup2 tires and Z07 package (CC brakes and etc.). Although somebody told the owner that there's not much difference between PS and PS Cup2 tires - they LIED :)

mx-5 driver here, that car is awesome but gosh the transmission literally would make it undriveable for me, its just soooooo slow it mushy

Sounds a little bit like a ferrari 488 pista V8. Like the high revs.

That limping was heat soak. Normal for that car on the track. From the look of it that’s a 2015 ZO6, before Chevy updated the car with an intercooler. The owner obviously has no idea of the in’s and out’s of the C7 ZO6.

You must’ve carefully in applying power by getting the car aligned properly or the reared will come around on you!

They put vents on the hood to help the cooling, but insisted on a decorative vanity cover for the engine. Nice.

you blew the dam plates off!! haha

The 7 speed would of been way better on track. Love LT4 and LT5 motors

I’ve got a c8 z06 I’d be willing to ship over from the USA but it will take a month or most likely two to get there.
