Can aftermarket successfuly resolve overheating and heat soak problems plaguing 2015 Corvette C7 Z06?

The short answer to this question would be YES but with a tiny caveat: at the time the task is accomplished, except for the leaf springs and that "lightweight frame" and carbon fiber interior garnish, there would not be anything left of the latest and greatest +General Motors  "flagship".

So does the problem lie with the overheating porker, the best that apparently +Tadge Juechter could come up with?

As a matter of fact, the overweight heat pump on four wheels can stand its own ground but with another caveat: it cannot be marketed as a "most (GM already removed the track part from its advertisemts) CAPABLE CORVETTE EVER.

IF GM came clean with this newest creation, the expectations would fall well within its capabilities and there would not be Corvette sheep running for cover every time another case of overheated engine, transmission, steering rack or differential is reported.

Of course, this part would require Juechter to tame his ego and GM to tone down its not just misleading but fraudulent claims, especially those revolving about this car's track capability and performance figures and changes in the buyers demographics.

As it is, mainly due to its high price tag, there is very little that change in buyers deration mographics, with senile old and manhood reminiscing buyers being the main core of the sales.  These people would never complain about car's performane impotence, they will never even come close to the base car's performance potential and between cars and coffee and spit and shine competitions, will spend most of their ownership polishing and waxing their "hot car" while getting for the grim reaper to knock on their door.  These buyers would be absolutely content with horsepower claims, quarter mile and from the dig acceleration figures, especially since now, they do not even have to row through the gears and worry they forgot what that left pedal is for... A heavy GT car with a plaque advertising the horsepower would be all the real buyers would need.

But.... there is a big problem here, Tadge Juechter's ego, a single reason why the newest flagship is such a piece of shit, incapable of sustainable performance and so prone to heat related breakdowns that are so common that one may be led to believe what they bought was not a 21st century automotive revolution but a direct throw back to Italian and British made pieces of shit made in the 70's (or maybe a Chevrolet Vega successor?).

Tadge Juechter's ego can be identified as the reason for advertising the newest flagship as capable of achievements well beyond this car's real life capabilities.  As it is, the new flagship, just like its base counterpart fall short on the top end, top speed specifically and this is something that will not change as long as this generation of Corvette is around.  Thus, the top speed figure is already permanently missing not just from the Stingray but the flagship as well.  This alone should be a warning sign to the idiots who expected a heavier, less aerodynamic and considerably more complex car to surpass its predecessors.  The basic laws of physics and energy conservation cannot allow this part to happen, especially since the car is still the same old front engine layout, with aerodynamics addressed by a first grader. 

On the paper, the new flagship accels (pun intended) in several areas but there is a price to pay for this superiority: with the drivetrain strained to the max, there is a lot of heat being generated and heat is the biggest enemy of high performance due to increase in friction and subsequent loss of efficiency.

When this extra heat is combined with very inadequate heat evacuation measures, what happens is exactly what the newest flagship does: a complete system shut down, with the car literally falling down on its ugly and anti aerodynamic face.

Had Juechter tamed his ego and not mislead the buyers with the baite of best ever track performance, the currently ongoing disaster would never happen and the people ignorantly believing they can buy a car worthy of SUSTAINABLE heavy duty track cycle at half of the price of competition would never purchase these cars.  These people are a very small fraction of buyers, a far cry from Juechter's another idiocy: rejuvenating the buyer group but these people apparently are dumb enough to take Juechter's words for their face value and put the newest flagship to its advertised use.  Of course what follows is a disaster that can be a surprise to someone who was stupid enough not to conduct even basic reality checks before spending the money.

These few buyers, along with automotive press unfortunately tend to be very vocal and as always, those who have problems tend to be considerably more vocal than the docile and senile buying majority.  When these few have problems, there is a chain reaction that results in geriatric core group losing their BRAGGING RIGHTS.  Yes, even though these old farts never put their cars to any real tests, they depend on bragging rights as the justification for their purchase (God forbid anyone would think their purchase resulted Baush and Lomb's failure to enable them to find their shrunk manhoods).

As a result of this biggest Corvette fuck up ever and due to the age of easily obtainable information, the newest flagship already turned into a giant cluster fuck for the buyers and publicity nightmare for General Motors.  The Nurburgring lap time that GM finally manage to achieve is beyond pathetic and reports of overheating and heat soak related powerdowns and total breakdowns keep coming in-solely due to Juechter's ego or maybe a medical condition called delusion? 

Of course since even though those few "track enthusiasts" scream pretty loud, they do not create economically warranted justification for GM to rectify the mess and even if there was a justification due to potential buyers loss, there is nothing GM can do to fix what is fucked up, without building a new car from the ground up.  The problem of course lies in the fact that Juechter is the chief of the entire program and he will never admit the failure since this newest and greatest was supposed be his Corvette legacy. 

What is the logical solution for those who are still waiting for a cure to this mess?  Look somewhere else, there is no fucking way this mess can be fixed, due to the concept of the car being flawed, no cause can be fixed by tackling random effects.  If there was a car for the typical Corvette geriatric crowd, Tadge just created it, not intentionally of course but still, tough shit Tadge!!!
