The majority of these nannies weren't made for you or me. They were made for the vast majority of drivers who can barely figure out which pedal is which. And that pertains to the majority of Mustang owners as well. The good new is to just turn them off if you do not want them. At least while we can!
We are certainly putting the cart before the horse here. A lot of assumptions being made without any proof of cause. Yes, maybe it was something in the electronics. Or maybe just something in the road. The on board diagnostics might be able to tell if it was the former. If not we will never know.
Oh itās happened before. And most likely it will happen again. But as insanely great as the ZR1 is it will always be just a Chevy. Top speed and track times are great, but which car would you rather pull in front of a Ritz Carlton with. And yes that matters.
First off @Exodrai so glad you were able to walk away from this one. I agree with the others, it should be totaled.
Thatās just a little severe without knowing the cause. Maybe one of these aids prevented the crash from being worse.
Legally, no way in hell. Illegally, maybe, but itās highly doubtful that it would work. The electronics are locked down way too tight to even think about it.
It is great that the ZR1 is an awesome car, an awesome American car as well. That said I highly doubt any Ferrari, Lamborghini, or McLaren owner is really going to care. A car is so much more than just numbers.
Well if you never, ever take your foot off the gas pedal thatās understandable. But in normal day to day driving you should be getting more. You didnāt mention how many miles you have on the car.
For a microsecond maybe.
Without a proper data reduction, thereās no way to tell exactly how many gās the ZR1 pulls through Turn 1, but it certainly looks to be every bit of the Corvette Z06ās 1.22 gās worth of lateral acceleration.
This is brought up in every thread on gas octane. This is no longer an issue with modern engines with electronic fuel management systems. Weāve progressed a long way since the high compression engines of the sixties and seventies.
Big, big difference between your EB and the Coyote. My EB ran like shit on regular. Turboās live and die on octane. Always used 93 and my baby was happy. On the other hand the Coyote doesnāt give a crap ( unless youāre on the track or constantly beating on it). Guys on here have been running 87...
For the 1,736,925 time use whatever the heck you want. Itās your car. Base your decision on your personal usage not what the geniuses on the internet have to say.
As shown in post #8, both are acceptable, neither will damage your engine. Now go out and drive your Mustang!
Heād over to M6G. Lots of advice from @DFB5.0 over there.
