The Chevy Corvette Z06 is one of the fastest cars on the road, and racing enthusiasts have pushed the car’s performance limits more than a few times on the track. With a 650 HP V8 engine and relatively light body, it’s easy to see why. In terms of modern-day muscle cars, not many vehicles can stack up to the Z06.
But through all that racing and high-torque and hairpin turns and frantic straightaway sprints, the Z06 has been found to have one not-to-small problem: in a high-performance racing environment, the car has trouble keeping its cool.
That’s the bad news. The good news? PFYC and LG Motorsports have teamed up for the ultimate Corvette cooling upgrade!
Corvette Cooling Problems: A Brief History
Overheating issues have plagued the Z06 at the track for years. Up to 5% of Z06 owners have complained of overheating during races. This data confirms what many Corvette owners have long suspected, but weren’t able to pinpoint. Now, more information is available as to how and why the Corvette Z06 occasionally overheats.
Two different areas of the Z06 displayed overheating characteristics during rigorous road and track tests: the braking system and the intercooler unit. As Corvette’s engineering team explained, these issues could’ve been the result of poor pre-race servicing. Still, any overheating during a typical track run are concerning, for both Chevy and their loyal customer base – and Z06 owners are some of the most speed-obsessed, performance-minded drivers on the planet.
Corvette engineers have already promised updates for all new Z06 models – namely, improved air flow through the hood with additional vents.
So, it looks like the designers and engineers at Chevrolet are serious about implementing a Corvette cooling upgrade. The problem is, this enhancement will only address all future Z06 models.
What about those Z06 Corvettes already on the road – and itching to take on the track? No worries, PFYC just released one of our most anticipated Corvette accessory packages in quite some time: the LG Motorsports Super Cool Z06 Track Package.
