  1. Car and Driver Lightning Lap Camaro ZL1 1LE DAMN FAST

    #1 Okay the ZL1 1LE is NOT a car that rides nicely on public roads. It is a comfortable place to sit though. The seats are comfy and supportive and there are quite a few "goodies" added in. I personally love the PDR...a wonderful tool every car should have! Brakes again?? Couple questions...
  2. Car and Driver Lightning Lap Camaro ZL1 1LE DAMN FAST

    Again, almost all street cars need a Brake Pad and Brake Fluid Change BEFORE they go on the track. They also need an alignment. "Whether the brakes hold up with aftermarket pads and fluid is irrelevant; " Umm...No. Almost any street car should change brake pads and fluid to a track...
  3. Car and Driver Lightning Lap Camaro ZL1 1LE DAMN FAST

    The brakes with these cars are fine. The only thing needed (as with any other car used for high speed tracks) Upgraded brake pads and fluid. We upgraded to GLOC 16/12 & Castrol SRF Fluid for my brother's ZL1 1LE for Road America. It is the same brake compounds and fluid I run in my R...
  4. R oil temps ?

    Temp definitely gets close to 300 at the track. I have not gotten limp mode. I do drive the car differently than I first did at the track. I am using 7500 ish as a shift point and try not too rev it out just to rev it and temp is managed okay. I do wish there was a large oil cooler available...
  5. Car and Driver Lightning Lap Camaro ZL1 1LE DAMN FAST

    My brother has one. I like it a lot. It is very fast. I am keeping my GT350R. The R is not as fast, but it is a lot more involving on the Road and the Track. It is hard to explain unless you drive them back to back. It is easy to get sucked in by numbers. I know a lot of people must...

  8. ZL1 vs GT350 head to head next week!

    I am excited to watch this show-down. I have little doubt the ZL1 is going to beat the GT350R...I just don't see how an extra 125 hp and close suspension tuning will not take the win. GT350R Advantages (Real world performance-Not Feel): -Lighter weight ~ 220 lbs. -Better Handling...

    I have a 2016 and am glad to see continuous improvement from Ford on this platform...that might mean it could be around a bit longer! Love the fact that manufactuers continually improve their product! We bought what we bought! I am very happy with what I received with my 2016 GT350R! I can...
  10. Bossing's GT350 journey....

    Me too...not a fan of red except for Ferrari's AND this CAR. I remember seeing an R at the Ford Media event at Road Americ and it looked stunning. I seriously considered ordering it in Red with a Black Roof. The red Ford uses really POPS! Nice choice. You have to be EXCITEMENT> I know...
  11. Bossing's GT350 journey....

    Congratulations on the R!!! Also, would love an opinion of how your Cayman GT4 handles the track versus your old GT350...similar times? I've read that under-steer is a problem on the GT4...have you noticed this with yours? Did you enjoy tracking your Focus RS? I was going to buy one as...
  12. Lets start good dealer Service Dept Thread

    For GREAT service and a Service Department that knows what they are doing when it comes to the GT350 in WISCONSIN I know this is going to sound like a sales pitch-I promise I am a real customer that cares. These guys are awesome with the GT350. I was seriously concerned as its a new car and...

  15. GT350R - Daily Driver - Street Driving Issues

    Love driving my GT350R around. I live in the country about 4 miles from Road America. I drive the car every chance I get. 0 issues with drive-ability. I do own an SUV for work and other cars, so if it is raining it stays parked in the garage. This means that I only drive the car under...

    So...anyone interested can just buy from Corvette forum instead then? Not a big deal to join. I have a Corvette as well, so no biggy...
  17. Anyone with G-Loc pad experience on track yet?

    I went with fresh rotors just remove all variables. I would imagine that a thorough cleaning of the rotors to remove all brake pads residue should work. I did not clean my rotors when I went from the OEM pads to the G-LOC.
  18. Anyone with G-Loc pad experience on track yet?

    Right from G-LOC's website FAQ page: Why PRE-BED Pads? "Proper bedding of pads & discs will result in greater performance and longer pad life along with improved disc/disc wear. Failure to properly bed in your pads will lead to increased wear of the pads. It can also lead to glazing of...
  19. Anyone with G-Loc pad experience on track yet?

    Love the G-LOC pads for track use!!! -BEFORE you put pads on your car ******Do NOT put G-LOC pads on your used rotors without cleaning the rotors thoroughly! Get any brake residue from any previous pads off completely. The G-LOC compounds are NOT compatible with the OEM compounds.****** This...
  20. Auto-blip??

    For me, Yes. I was fighting the auto-blip for most of the 1st day. By the 2nd day after consciously fighting the urge to blip the throttle, I was able to fight the urge and then began to enjoy the beauty of a perfect blip without effort! Still fighting the urge, but when I do it is great. I...
