Published on Nov 24, 2014 by Motor Trend Channel [ http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsAegdhiYLEoaFGuJFVrqFQ / http://www.youtube.com/user/MotorTrend , http://www.youtube.com/user/MotorTrend/videos ]

Correction: The displacement of the Z06 is displayed incorrectly as 5.0L in the video. The actual displacement of the Z06 is 6.2L.

On this episode of Ignition presented by Tire Rack, Carlos Lago heads to the infamous Road Atlanta circuit to test the limits of the all new Chevrolet Corvette Z06! Reworked from the ground up, the 2015 Z06 ditches the screaming naturally aspirated V8 of the last generation for a supercharged unit producing 650 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque. Has Chevrolet managed to raise the bar once more or will this monster Corvette prove to be too much of a handful? Stay tuned to find out!
