    Amazing driving! Were you running on slicks or corsas? Also, I noticed you seem to have a technique that involves moving the wheel side to side very quickly....is this your way of getting a feel for the slip angle? I'm always interested to learn more from great drivers.

    I know in my POV vids you see this & it's the micro-corrections I'm making as the car pushes just beyond the limit, correcting quickly for slight over & under steer. You see this when really getting the car at the limit of the tires. Considering the squealing and look of it, I'd say that's not on slicks, but OEM tires, and a great job driving ... what a blast, what these cars are all about.

    Another great track, great driving and video! Some different track features than VIR and Sebring...any new impressions of the TA?

    Z07 looked very impressive too. Did the owner experience any issues with high track temps as some have reported?

    Thanks for sharing!

    LOL.

    He was doing very well on the early laps. Probably just overheated, like usual. As temps increase outside, more Z06 owners are becoming victims of overheating issues... http://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/...lant-temp.html

    What a disaster. I'm so glad I didn't go that route...

    True,...or he overheated the tires and they were starting to let go.
    One of the reasons to get the viper, less chance of heat soak on the motor, less weight on the tires, and more tire

    Love people blowing off 270* oil temps

    Car may take it - but it ain't gonna be good for long term durability by a long shot.

    The excessive oil temps, coupled with the low oil pressure at the same time = scary. Some of the low pressures were in the bottom 20 psi range, at those temps. That can't be good on the track...

    I like how the C7Z passes on the cool-down lap!
