Default Z06, Alex Lloyd, Road Atlanta

Hi Guys, my Corvette buddy sent this to me. It's a test by Alex Lloyd at Road Atlanta with the new Z06. I would say he was very impressed! Enjoy!

Nice Video and review. He said the car is still being tweeked due to data that came in from the Ring? What about the cars that have been built? or was this video made a few weeks ago? also did not hear any mention of the car getting hot? Thanks OP.

If it was on the internet four days ago, you can be sure it's already been posted two or three times. Still, all these reviews that came out Monday continue to be fun to view. And until we get our cars released from their jail, the videos are all we have to watch. Happy Thanksgiving!

"It becomes a race car. It feels analog like a race car, it’s loud like a race car and the downforce level in Stage 3 is roughly 500 lbs. greater at top speed. In fact, the Z06 produces more downforce than any car GM has ever tested – and that includes all of its competition: “We’ve tested everything you can imagine,” said chief engineer Tadge Juechter. “The Z06 outperforms them all.”
