  • C7 Chevy Corvette Z06 | 0-60 TIMES | With and Without LAUNCH CONTROL!
    Hello everyone and welcome back to Brink of Speed! Today I will take you along for an ADRENALINE RUSH of 0-60 times in my 2015 C7 Corvette Z06!
    I already checked out the times with the original set of Pilot Cup 2 tires that were on this car when I bought it but, now I have Continental Extreme Contact Sport tires on the Z06 and I want to see how these brand new grippy tires do.
    With the old set of tires on the street, my best was a 3.6 second 0-60. Today I was able to beat that by 2 tenths of a second and get my time down to 3.4 seconds! This was achieved without using launch control, the fastest I was getting with that on was 3.5, so I turned it off, out it in sport mode and pedaled the throttle. I was able to get one more tenth out of it and get it to 3.4 seconds 0-60!
    I'm actually very happy with this time, being that the temp outside was about 83 and I was on the street. I truly believe that at a prepped drag strip, I would easily get 3 seconds or less!

      Nice driving and yes 3.4 is impressive especially in a M7. Question, does the M7 require the clutch to be used during up shifting? I believe the 2.95 time is a Chevy published time with the A8 and Road and Track got a best 3.0 with the A8...the published times for the M7 are slightly higher (I bought the A8 so haven't run down the M7 times but they are higher then your referenced times.

    I have had good luck on the cup tires (also a 2015 A8 car). In this video, it did a 3.3 with traction control on and in track mode, no launch mode. ruclips.net/video/poskk9cCKrQ/видео.html
    In this video, it went 11.09@125 - still completely stock with traction control and track mode, untouched ( I forgot the in car cam!). ruclips.net/video/lSc1dTuCKXg/видео.html
    In both videos, I leave the line at idle and stab the gas. The 60's are in the 1.68 range. The weather was terrible for racing, with the DA being around 3800'.

    I have that problem with both my cars especially the ZR1 even with sticky cup Twos. The higher octane fuel will help after you quit spinning I have done it it helps that little bit. Every tenth of a second in 0-60 helps.

    The guy who hit 2.8 on RUclips with his Z06 scrubbed the tires like you would at the dragstrip. Most people don't do that in their 0-60 runs and it does seem to be required in order to hit 3 seconds or less

    • @BrinkofSpeed

    I got 3.3 both on Michelin SS and on Nitto NT05Rs in 2016 C7 Z06. Despite the same times, the Nittos spin less. Was surprised the Nittos did not get me in 3.0 range. I guess I have to try, try and try again. Hope to put on 1/4 mile track this year and eventually do the Johnny Bohmer 2.3 mile run maybe next year.

    I don't know if I missed it but did you ever state if your Z is auto or manual? The auto is the one that got under 3 seconds, the manual is slower. Assuming yours is manual 7-speed. What's crazy is the new 2020 BASE vette (w/Z51 pkg.) goes 0-60 in 2.8 seconds with basically the same motor minus the supercharger.

How'd you that? lol Why don't you come up here to the Ice Box of NJ and do some runs. Guaranteed that you'll cut another two tenths off your time. lol What still gets me though, is how, when and where does the factory get the times that they post?
