C7 question
I just traded my C6 for a 2015 C7 Vert 2LT. When I first take off from a parking spot, it feels like the wheels are skipping over something, or I'm driving over a rock or something. Anyone know what this could be?

Thread number 3,678 on this subject. Something makes me think this question will come up 20 or 30 years into the future.
Reading owner manuals and using the search feature can really educate the uneducated.
Oh, and BTW, try putting more info in the subject line. It will keep snarky comments like this to a minimum.

Yes, I feel your pain, backing out of the driveway and turning hard it literally bounces the front end! It feels like you are literally running over a rock the size of a softball! Not to mention the loud thumps! It is worse when cold. Even after the tires are warm if you turn in a tight circle it will still bump, apparently it’s something called the Ackerman Effect? I am 60 plus years old, had dozens of cars including 4 corvettes and have never experienced this. It is unnerving to say the least.

You had a C6 and never experienced the "problem" you're having with your C7? Amazing....
Even more amazing - you've been on the forum 10+ years and you write "I didn't expect that from this forum. Maybe you take a break from this forum for a while."
That's even more amazing.
