The reason why the C8 Z06 lap time on the Nordschleife is not even faster is due to the ultra-long gear ratio of fifth gear. In fifth gear the revs collapse and the Z06 drives at quite low revs over the top speed sections of the Nordschleife and does not reach high top speeds here. With a shorter gear ratio in fifth gear, a sub-7 time might be possible. During our test on the Nordschleife, Aaron Link (Global Vehicle Performance Manager, Chevrolet Performance Cars) also revealed the secret and showed us an unpublished onboard video of the internal Corvette lap time on the Nordschleife, which was also 7.10 minutes.
