- Wow I feel like this was a long time coming, finally getting the most out of the car at Sebring international!
Current specs on the car:
Base 2019 Z06 (non Z07)
OEM 2019 automatic radiator (2" thick)
DSC Sport suspension controller
Z07 front and rear OEM springs and sway bar bushings
AWE X pipe.
Hawk DTC 70 fronts and 60 rears break pads
Girodisk front and rear break rotors
I saw you pass a lot of cars. I did not see anyone pass you. Nice driving. I have a 2016 Z06, A8, 3LZ, convertible. I love it. I'm on Continental tires. I don't race so they are alright for daily driving. Thanks for the video!
wow...juss watched urr video...very enjoyable....ive had my 19 m. zo6 now 4 aprox. 2years...all stoc other than x-pipe..n muffler delete.....i have always been interested in tracing it like u did here..but i know i wood nt bee anywhere as fast as u were here!!!!i have a question u have seemed 2 answer 4me......i did a 100mile road trip a couple a months ago ;over 100 degr. out.was always goen aprox. 70 mph...the oiltemps got up in the mid high 230-s..and the coolant was always-always 10 degrees cooler in the 220-s......i was almost having an angziaty attak thinken the thing was goen 2 overheat..never did....all the fluids have been changed by me...the coolant was fine.....any advice???sounds like u wood know...appr. it.
Highway cruising is should stay around 200 or under, maybe 205 with 100* outside air temps.
I’d make sure the thermostat is not sticking, I bet you it is. Easy to change (get a new OEM one) other then having to bleed the cooling system.
Also, depending on your area you can run less coolant and more water. From the factory it comes with a 60/40 mix of water (60%) to coolant (40%)
Nice driving. 2.22 is really getting it. What group do you go,with? Chin? If so are u in blue or red? Really like how deep you dive into 17 and how much speed you carry before starting to turn in. Have you ever tried slicks or scrubbed slicks? Would probably knock your time down even more. I’ve ran Ps cup 2 run flats and slicks are definitely stickier.
This was with Chin, I would say they’re my favorite group.
With them I run in the blue group because in the red there’s a lot of race cars and it kind of freaks me out when an LMP wants to pass you on Bishops or turn 1 😅
On the C7 I have not tried slicks or scrubs , maybe one day. Kinda want to get in to the teens on a DOT tire one day just for shits and giggles
@@Justa2L u r a heck of a driver! I’m in Chin blue too. At 2:22 I might not catch who you are when u blow by me though. Lol. Hope to see u in the paddock. What’s your number? And, have you modded the car? BTW hear u on the red group. Crazy fast. And, they wreck a lot.
@@darinayers7425 only power mods to the car are an X pipe and air filter, no tune.
Yeah man come by and say hi, I’m usually #99. This 11/4 I’ll be at Sebring with Chin but with the Evo, also #99 in blue group
This edit took me forever lol
👊👊👊
Thanks for posting, looks fast. I have a 19 GS that I track a few days per year. Are those Girodisk rotors the stock sizes? How are they compared to OEM? Any info would be appreciated, thanks.
Yes they’re the Girodisk
The rears are full replacement (hat and rotor) and lighter then stock
The fronts are replament disks only, you reuse the oem hat with new hardware. Although giro does make full replacement as for the front as well but since it’s just another aluminum hat I didn’t think it was worth it.
Both front and rear are oem sized.
Compared to oem, so far they seem to holding up a little bit better then the oem rotors with less heat checks even on the same pads but I can’t comment yet on longevity
@@Justa2L Thank you!
Very nice driving. I just picked up a 17 GS collectors edition 7 spd with Z07 package. Do you find that leaving rev matching on causes problems like hesitation of the throttle on upshifts?
Nice, congratulations!
No the system works flawlessly. Never has it failed to match perfectly and never has it caused any issues.
Nice driving!
I just sold my Z51 and am in the market now for an M7 C7 Z06. Any advice you could give on which years and options to look out for in my search? Primarily will be a daily/street car so want good road manners but will be doing some auto X and trackdays as well. I also am fine working with doing some work on the car, if that affects your advice (such as swapping the radiator like you did). TIA
If you can swing a 19 then that would be your best bet.
It has all the cooling updates plus also some hand down upgrades from the c7 ZR1 (low side fuel system, some bushings, better cluster display and others) and also the latest MRC software update.
If that’s not a possibility then at least get a 17 or 18. Again cooling updates and you can get the dealer to update the MRC software for a fee.
@@Justa2L following up on prior comment. Got a 17 2LZ M7! Thanks for the insight.
2:22 is flying. Nice work. Question- you race with MAX A/C on?
No absolutely not. That would for sure send coolant temps through the roof!!
Best option to stay cool during hot days would be a cool shirt setup
@@Justa2L - ok. That's what I figured. Just saw the knob on the dash set to LOW.
Hi! Nice onboard!
Which telemetry are you use?
That’s from the OEM Performance Data Recorder from GM.
@@Justa2L thank you for the answer.
Yesterday was on the race track, was not very hot, but after few laps oil temperature was to hot, do you know this issue on Z06 C7?
@@PvlM5 how hot do you consider too hot?
My oil temp will settle around 265-275 and coolant at 225-232 if I drive the whole session. Yes that seems hot but limp mode doesn’t kick in until 302 oil and like 260 coolant. These cars have a very high coolant pressure system and todays oils won’t break down as easily with the heat. I’ve sent oils for analysis after several track days with those kinds of temperatures and the oil was still good to keep using so now I follow the oil life percentage display and I change it once it gets to 30% or lower.
@@Justa2L oil was ~ 280+
@@PvlM5 auto or manual?
I live here and have yet to take my 1LE out there.
Man you should definitely go out and see the car’s true potential!
@@Justa2L I know man! I just have to suck it up and get out there I want to badly. Sad I live here and don't get out there.
What size do you use?
What size what?
@@Justa2L whoops I deleted it. Wheels - those looked like 19s is that what you usually run?
@@hustlehour ahh
18x11F & 18x12.5R for my usual track setup on 295/335 Nankang AR1’s
The cups are stock sizes on stock wheels, 19x10 & 20x12 and 285/335
@@Justa2L usually there’s a huge wheel gap when people run 18s but those look pretty good!
