Video: Corvette battles McLarens and Porsches on track
03rd November 2023
Ethan Jupp
We’ve always maintained the Corvette doesn’t get the credit it deserves in this country as a proper rival to sportscars and sometimes supercars. The latter is especially ofte...
The telemetry view is pretty cool too and very useful. It’s GM’s performance data recorder, which has been an option on a number of its fast cars for the last decade or so. We can see revs, steering, G forces, the track map, speed and times. But none of that tells us what the Camera does, which is that drivers depending, a Corvette can keep a McLaren honest on track. Granted, the Z06 has power on its side – 650PS (478kW) from its 6.2-litre supercharged LT4 engine – but what is otherwise a far less sophisticated car than the carbon-fibre-bodied McLaren, really punches above its weight. Why it’s taken GM so long to bring them over here in RHD is beyond us.
