While testing their “prototype lower harmonic balancer to increase boost” on the new Corvette Z06, Late Model Racecraft achieved some dino-sized dyno numbers.

Believe it or not, there are still folks out there who think that the new Z06 is slow. As evidence to the contrary, we submit this video of a stock Z06 racing against a Lamborghini Gallardo Super Trofeo Stradale.

Chevy says 40 percent of those who purchased a new Corvette in December opted for a Z06 model. After my day zooming around Nevada’s Spring Mountain Motor Resort, I quickly understood why.

Here’s a meme I stumbled upon that was posted by Corvette Forum member “EVL-Z06”. What do you think? Is this photo illustration accurate?

The inspiring video, “Why We Race,” highlights racing’s impact on the production of the Corvette, while suggesting that any performance improvements to be made to the C7 and Z06 will likely come from the racetrack as well.

Get a load of this B.S.: The title of the following video is “2015 Dodge Hellcat Annihilates 2015 C7 Z06 Chevrolet Corvette”. Hmm … “Annihilate” is a strong term. Watch the video, and you’ll see what I mean.

As of the close of November, GM sold more than 31,000 Corvettes last year, and all the engines for those cars were built at the New York Tonawanda plant.
