  • 2014 Hennessey Chevrolet Corvette Stingray HPE700 Twin Turbo To Debut At Boca Raton Concours

    2014 Hennessey Chevrolet Corvette Stingray HPE700 Twin Turbo is least to say exclusive. It is the most powerful HPE Stingray ever and even more – it will be built in only 24 examples. This limited edition Chevrolet will be unveiled on 21st of February at the Boca Raton Concours in south Florida.

    This Stingray is powered by a twin turbo system that utilizes a pair of precision ball bearing 62-mm turbochargers. The HPE system has been handcrafted and uses mandrel-bent stainless steel tubing, dual turbo wastegates, and twin blow-off valves on the intercooler’s TIG-welded aluminum plenum.

    To be more precise, due to the tuning this Chevy is capable of generating 707 hp (520 kW) at 6,400 rpm and 895 Nm (661 lb-ft) of torque. The powertrain is coupled with either a 7-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission.

    The result of all this power is stunning. In details, when the car is equipped with 20-inch drag radial tires, it reaches 100 km/h from standstill in just 2.9 seconds, securing its way to the top speed of 210 mph.

    More control for the additional power has been ensured by the HPE CarbonAero package which comprises of a carbon-fiber front spoiler, side sills and rear lip spoiler. They provide additional overall downforce.

    The visual stance of the vehicle is rounded off by the 10-spoke Hennessey H10 forged monoblock wheels coupled with factory Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. Due to the lightweight of these wheels, the car becomes over19 lb lighter. This results in the minimization of both rotational mass and unsprung weight.

  • World Premiere: 2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7.R Racecar

    At the North American Auto Show Chevrolet made two exclusive premieres. The first on is of the breath taking Corvette Z06, whereas the second – of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7.R Racecar. Both cars were co-developed and represent the closest link between Corvettes built for the road and for racing. They share the masterful engineering of brand’s specialists and are equipped with new technologically advanced components in terms of chassis architecture, engine and aerodynamics.

    For the racing season this year, Corvette Racing will enter two C7.Rs which will compete at the 52nd Rolex 24 At Daytona in ten days as well as the GT Le Mans class in 11 races around North America. It is also expected to be confirmed the participation of the team at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in June.

    In 2013 Corvette Racing won five races and this success was due to the technology transfer between Corvette production cars and race cars. Many of the architectural and aerodynamic features of the C7R are based on equivalent components and technologies found in the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06.

    For instance, the first one is the brand new aluminum frame, which was built with the extensive utilization of advanced manufacturing materials such as laser welding, Flow-drill-machined fasteners and a GM-patented aluminum spot-welding process. The goal was to make a production structure for the cars which is much stronger than previous ones.

    The second feature that both cars share in common is the direct fuel injected engine. It is created in such way that it delivers greater efficiency and can make a significant difference in long-distance endurance racing such as Daytona and Le Mans through fewer time-consuming pit stops.

    In the aspect of aerodynamics, Corvette C7.R features forward-tilted radiator, functional hood and front-quarter panel vents, and rear transmission and differential cooling intakes. Z06 and C7.R share strategies for improved cooling and aerodynamic downforce, including similar front splitters, rocker panels, and front- and rear-brake cooling ducts.

    Of course, there are differences between both cars and they are mainly defined by the limitations of GT rules. First of all, C7.R has the same powertrain as the C6.R that has a displacement of 5.5L, and has no forced induction. In comparison, Z06 is equipped with supercharged 6.2L unit which develops 625 horsepower (460 kW). Despite these differences, both engines are based on the historic small block architecture.

    The racecar is also built with modified suspension because of the wider racing tires and larger brakes, according to the GT regulations. The ducts on the C7.R can be seen on each of the rear quarter panels, above the brake ducts, which will draw air to help cool the race car’s transaxle and differential.

    In addition, the rear wing has been made more more-significant part of vehicle’s aero package. A larger radiator inlet generates smoother airflow over the rear wing and makes its use more efficient to the handling and stability of the C7.R at higher speed.

     

  • It Is Official: 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Premiered In Detroit

    2015-Chevrolet-Corvette-Z06-THUMB2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 was finally revealed at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The most track-capable Corvette in the Chevrolet’s has been presented in its full glory and the brand finally unveiled the official specifications of the car, and we must say it is extremely exciting!

    What is new here is that the Z06 is equipped with a supercharged 6.2L engine which as expected will produce 625 horsepower (466 kW). There will be two options of transmissions offered: a seven-speed manual or a brand new high-performance eight-speed automatic one with paddle shifters for manual control. What is more, there will be also offered a track-focused Z07 Performance Package which will adds more aerodynamic downforce to the car and will feature Michelin Pilot Super Sport Cup tires and Brembo carbon ceramic-matrix brake rotors.

    To go further into details, under the hood of the Corvette sleeps the new LT4 6.2L supercharged V-8 engine. It produces 625 horsepower (466 kW) and 635 lb-ft of torque (861 Nm) and features Direct injection, Active Fuel Management (cylinder deactivation) and continuously variable valve timing in order to deliver enhanced fuel efficiency.

    The higher output of the unit is supported via the following features:

    • Rotocast A356T6 aluminum cylinder heads
    • Lightweight titanium intake valves and machined connecting rods
    • High 10.0:1 compression ratio
    • Forged aluminum pistons with stronger structure
    • Stainless steel exhaust headers and an aluminum balancer
    • Standard dry-sump oiling system utilized with dual-pressure-control oil pump

    Undoubtedly, the other major highlight here is the debut of the 8L90 eight-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission. It has been designed to improve both performance and efficiency. In fact, the transmission offers full manual control via steering wheel paddles for performance driving.

    Seeing the pictures of the car, we must confirm that its design is more than striking. In order to deliver the levels of grip needed for the Z06’s performance targets the car was equipped with large Michelin tires: at the front are in size P285/30ZR19 and at the rear – in size 335/25ZR20.

    The fenders have also been extended, giving the Corvette Z06 a wider and lower appearance. This is also visible at the rear fascia. The tires are mounted on lightweight and spin-cast aluminum wheels and fitted with massive Brembo brakes.

    The aerodynamic downforce of the Z06 was enhanced thanks to the addition of the following elements:

    • front splitter, spats around the front wheel openings, a unique carbon-fiber hood with a larger vent, and the rear spoiler from the Corvette Stingray’s Z51 Performance Package
    • available carbon-fiber aero package – in either black or a visible carbon-fiber finish – adds a carbon fiber front splitter with aviation-style winglets, carbon fiber rocker panels, and a larger rear spoiler with a fixed wickerbill
    • available Z07 package add larger winglets to the front splitter, along with an adjustable, see-through center section on the rear spoiler for track use

    The ravishing exterior of the car features also one-of-a-kind grille, complemented with a larger hood vent, which includes brake-cooling intakes and wider grille outlets on the bottom that serve as air diffusers. There are also additional cooling elements include larger front fender vents and air blades over the inlets on the rear fenders.

    Inside, the car is fully wrapped with premium, soft-touch materials such as Napa leather, aluminum, carbon fiber and micro-suede. The focus of course is on the new flat-bottomed steering wheel. Z06 will be offered with two seating choices comprising of a GT seat and a Competition Sport seat.

    2015 Corvette Z06 has been designed with extensive utilization of lightweight materials and features advanced driver technologies such as the SLA-type front and rear suspension, which has been uniquely calibrated for the higher performance threshold. Next, the third-generation Magnetic Selective Ride Control dampers which come as a standard can be adjusted for touring comfort or maximum track performance via the standard Driver Mode Selector, which offers the Launch control, Active handling (StabiliTrak electronic stability control), Traction control, Performance Traction Management and Electronic Limited Slip Differential (eLSD).

    The latter helps make the most of the torque split between the rear wheels. It includes hydraulically actuated clutch and is fully integrated with Electronic Stability Control and Performance Traction Management systems. Its calibrations offer the following Modes:

    • Mode 1: default setting for normal driving and emphasizes vehicle stability
    • Mode 2: engaged when electronic stability control is turned off in the Sport or Track modes.
    • Mode 3: automatically selected when Performance Traction Management is engaged.

    The performance data and pricing of the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 will be announced closer to the start of production. The car is expected to be available in early 2015.

  • 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 [Leak Images]

    2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is definitely a hot topic, since the first images of the car have already leaked. Last week there was also an unofficial data release of the horsepower that the car will develop and now it seems like the brand has failed to keep intact the secret of the visual appearance of the car.

    Precisely, it is rumored that the Corvette Z06 will produce 620 horsepower (455 kW) and 650 lb-ft (480 Nm) of torque. This means that the new model will add 200 hp (147 kW) when compared to the base one, as well as 200 lb-ft of torque. Of course, this also leads to the logical conclusion that Z06 will be equipped with plenty of aero elements … and so it is.

    Observing the leaked pictures, we can undoubtedly confirm that the exterior of the car will sport elements that can make the rumored 620 hp reality. Such are for instance the deeply vented hood, the front splitter, the additional cooling vents in the fender, the rear quarter and the large rear spoiler.

    Luckily enough, the pictures that were going around the web show also some of the interior of the car. We see an exclusive black-leather used inside which is adorned with white stitching. What is more, we also see an extensive utilization of carbon fiber.

    On the instrument panel at the high end of the tachometer there is a “P” on the display. And the most interesting thing we can spot is that the gear-shift is entirely different from the seven-speed speed one of the production Corvette. Will it be manual or automatic?

    We are extremely excited to see what Chevrolet’s official specifications and pictures will be when 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 debuts at the North American Auto Show in Detroit.

  • 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 To Produce 620 Horsepower

    2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is gong to have its official full reveal at the North American International Auto Show in a week. A teaser image of the newcomer was revealed by Chevrolet in the beginning of December. In addition, back then it was also announced that the Z06 will be the most track-capable Corvette ever.

    Since these promises were made a month ago, the American brand obviously didn’t manage to keep the secret about Corvette Z06’s performance figures. And luckily for all fans, the output figures of the muscle car have already leaked.

    It is currently being rumored over the web that the forthcoming Corvette will be able to develop the astonishing 620 horsepower (455 kW) and 650 lb-ft (480 Nm) of torque. This means that the car will add almost 200 hp over the 450 hp and 200 lb-ft over the 450 lb-ft of torque of the base Corvette.

    With the official debut of the car next week, we are to see it in its full glory. In Detroit we are also to see the other details around the vehicle including acceleration figures weight and much more. 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 will go on sale by the end of next year.

  • 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Gets Performance Data Recorder [VIDEO]

    2015-CorvetteStingray-PDR-THUMBAt the Consumer Electronics Show Chevrolet announced the release of an industry-first Performance Data Recorder for the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The system basically enables users to record and share high-definition video, with professional-level motorsports telemetry overlays, of their driving experiences on and off the track.

    Furthermore, the software also allows users to analyze their laps as well as gives them advices on how to improve their driving and lap times. The Performance Data Recorder (PDR) system is brought to life thanks to the professionals at Cosworth.

    To go into details, the PDR system includes three major components. The first one is a 720p high-definition camera. The latter is positioned on within the windshield header trim and records the driver’s point-of-view through the windshield, while the sound is recorded via a dedicated microphone in the cabin.

    The second component is a self-contained telemetry recorder which uses GPS receiver that operates at 5 hertz and allows more precise positioning and corner traces. The recorder delivers vehicle information such as engine speed and transmission-gear selection, braking force and steering-wheel angle.

    At last, the third component is the SD-card slot in the glove box for recording and transferring video and vehicle data. For instance, an 8-gigabyte card can record approximately 200 minutes, while a 32-GB card – up to about 800 minutes.

    What is more, the PDR system can record video with several data overlay options: Track Mode, Sport Mode, Touring Mode and Performance Mode. Then the video can be viewed on the Corvette Stingray’s eight-inch color touchscreen.

    Finally, “Cosworth Toolbox” software has been specifically developed for those who want a more in-depth understanding of their performance. This software delivers professional-level motorsport data analysis.

    In fact, the Cosworth Toolbox application works by overlaying recorded laps on a Bing-enabled satellite map of the track. Then it compares selected laps in terms of corner traces, vehicle speed, and cornering force in order to help drivers improve their driving consistency and ultimately their lap times.

    Performance Data Recorder will be available with the start of the production of 2015 Chevrolet Corvette in the third quarter of 2014. Pricing will be announced closer to launch.

  • Vilner Transforms 1976 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C3

    Art design Studio Vilner, known as the “Atelier of unlimited possibilities”, has just shared with us its latest project. A classical 1976 Chevrolet Corvette has received fine makeover, which refreshes the forms of the legendary Stingray C3 and at the same time keeps the classic lines of the U.S. muscle car.

    In order to turn this car in to another magnificent project of Vilner, the work on this Corvette started with the engine. The 5.7 liter V8 Small Block unit got new head, shafts and two twin carburetors.

    All of them were delivered by the U.S. experts at Edelbrock Performance. The generation was shortened and was carried over to the side of the body. The machine hasn’t been put through a dyno test, which means that the results of the power tuning are not known. What is expected however is a peak power of 300 hp (220 kW).

    The exterior of the car has also been modified and has received new varnish in pearl brown color, while the targa roof trim got upholstery from calf leather adorned by decorative stitching. The original nickel-plated wheels were left untouched as well as the form of the tail-lights.

    The latter, however, have entirely new bodies that rely on new LED lights that in turn add a note of futurism in the classic stance of the carosserie. In order to be convenient for driving, this Corvette got new daytime running lights as well as new turn signals.

    To go even further into details, into the original bodies of the parking-lights and indicators were integrated LED-daytime running lights and LED-indicators, as well as into those of the tail-lights. They were created specifically for this automobile and indeed they are unique.

    In the opening of the front fenders were inbuilt two chrome-plated grills, while the rear bumper of the car is with completely changed design for a better line. One of the most attractive features here is the original chrome-plated boot on which is attached a vintage suitcase made of camel leather.

    The interior is where the true power of Vilner lies and this classic Corvette took the maximum advantage of this fact. The dashboard was entirely transformed; new is also the design of the dials of the tachometer and speedometer.

    The Audio system here is made of high quality source by Mcintosh, three amplifiers and three-band front system delivered by Ground Zero, as well as two subwoofers by Peerless.

    Furthermore, the seat’s upholstery was made of a combination between calf-nappa leather and box, while the laser engraving provided an additional note of personalization. At last, the elements made of wood veneer were replaced by inserts made of high-tech Corian material.

  • 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51 – US Price $100,760

    Chevrolet is now offering the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Z51 for $100,760. This is a whopping $25,000 mark-up to a Corvette Z51 that would normally cost $75,760. Of course you will wonder why that happened?

    Because of a very strong demand for the C7 and GM has announced that they will not increase production of the sports car. So, if you can’t wait several months until production will catch up with demand, you will have to pay considerably more.

    2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51 is powered by a 6.2 liter V8 engine with 455HP (339 kW) and 624Nm (460 lb-ft) of torque. 0-96 km/h (0-60 mph) in 3.8 seconds and ¼ mile is covered in just 12.0 seconds. The sports coupe can pull 1.03 g on the skid pad and decelerate 60-0 mph in 32.6 meters (107 feet).

    Cumulatively, the acceleration, cornering and braking capability of the Corvette Stingray enabled it to lap the Virginia International Raceway’s (VIR) 4.2-mile “Grand Course” in 2:51.78.
