Wonderful advice, now all I need is a C7 Corvette
Thank you, I recommend you go buy one as soon as you can, they are amazing!
Definitely hope you do get one, and have to say the C7 ZO6 is by far the best corvette ever built, and true Super car, absolute Monster.
😂😂😂😂 Right
😅😅🤣
@@BrinkofSpeed if it was was just that simple
Thank you for a great video. I just got a C7 and didn't know about any of this stuff. Thank you so much!!
Just picked up my C7 and delving into it! Thanks for the tips! Lookin for more!
Great content! Love the video and the technical details. It must have been hard to film and drive at the same time. Really good info and great delivery
Yup! Learned a few things even though ive had my z51 c7 for 15 months! Great channel, always good with lots of class! Keep up the excellent content Mike!
Awesome, I'm glad you learned something! Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! 🙂
Outstanding info. The key fob issue happen to me last night. My battery went out and I couldn't get in the car, so embarrassing!. I now know what to do if it happens again. Thank you.
Great upload Mikey !! Loved the footage early on. Good info on the car itself also. Thx bro !!!!
CarzGuyz_ JT Thank you JT, I really appreciate it brother!
Great information!
Thank you.
Nice tips, love the valet tip, subscribed
I love those super convenient key tricks and that little phone mount is borderline elegant haha. Thanks again for the great video and big congrats on hitting 10k subs!
Yeah me too, they are small but very useful! You're very welcome sir and thank you!
Great video thanks for the valuable info
Just got my C7. Love it. Great tips on the nav feature!
Cool stuff! Went out to the garage and just programed the valet mode! Didn't know that!
Just got my 2019 Grand Sport yesterday and I didn't know any of this!!! Thanks!!! :)
U r a natural mate! Keep up the great videos thanks so much!
Hello everyone and welcome back to Brink of Speed!
In today's video, we will be talking about things you probably didn't know about your C7 Corvette. Have a wonderful rest of your Saturday and I'll see you out on the road!
The navigation part I didn’t know about it but I just got through watching your video now I know about it
Excellent video! Great information! Thanks!
Tristan T. "The Gospel Lyricist" Glad you liked it, and you’re welcome 😊
Great job, Mike Great job.
I didn't realize that I had to hold the remote start button down for a few seconds to shut the car off. Thanks.
Your PDR tutorial was easy to understand. I want to record my trip on The Tail of the Dragon this September and now I will very easily. Thanks, again.
Thank you, Mike, I'm so happy that you learned something and can use it on your trip and you are so very welcome! 🙂
If you have a 2LT or higher, with the heads up display on the windshield, the NAV directions show up there as well. Really cool!
Dream Machine This is also true and it certainly is awesome!
Excellent video!
I didn't know about any of these functions. Thank you very much.
Thanks Mike, Great Video. While in Valet mode it also disables the radio and most important of all it locks the glove box where the SD card is located.
Marino Motorsports You’re welcome. Yeah, I forgot to explain that part. I’ll have to talk about it next time! 😊
Good stuff brother, luckily I have been a proud owner of 4 C7s lol, knew these all. On the first one, when you open the trunk with the key, you can actually unlock the car too by pulling the unlock cable/wire to unlock door manually.
Thank you for the info! The first 2 about the remote … 🤯
Good to know now!
After all this time this an amazing video. Thank you
I’ m waiting for my C8, but still love the C7. The cell mag mount is awesome, not flimsy or bulky like the others. Got mine from Walmart $9.99. 👍🏽
Brad Mason Yeah, I can’t wait to get my C8 either. Yup, it’s a great mount for sure. That is a great price.
That was a great video. When I get a Corvette, I will use the info to program the car. Thamks.
Jeymi Santana I’m glad you enjoyed it and you’re welcome 😊
Great video. Thank you.
Oscar Morales Thank you and you’re welcome 😊
Wow awesome thank you very much
Cool...the C7 is fantastic..love the remote start. Actual key function is very handy also. Valet mode is immense.
Yeppers, all neat little features!
Mr Mike I think that you do a great job and I appreciate all the work you do on your channel. What model of corvette do you have? Yours is the exact color and style that I want
Neat, valuable info.,thanks!
Cindy Keselowski You’re welcome 😊
Appreciate this video!
Good stuff. Thx!
Enjoy the videos man, in the market for a c7 soon , great tips😎
Awesome, I'm so glad you enjoy them! You will love whichever C7 you go with! 🙂
Thanks for the Navigation tip Mike!!!
You're very welcome Jim! 🙂
Enjoyed the video. Just picked up my C7 Grand Sport in December so I have a lot to learn about it.
Jay Vigneault I’m glad that you enjoyed it. Congratulations on your new purchase! 😊
In the market for a grand sport this summer
Hey thanks for the tips I just bought my 2018 C7 grand sport and I couldn’t figure out how to start it with the remote and I haven’t had time to read the manual so thanks also I would say I use a RAM MOUNT with a suction cup on the windshield with a 6 inch arm and it puts my phone hands-free and in a kind of poor mans heads up display mode that way I don’t mess up the dash with any kind of mounting. That set up works pretty good for me thanks. And Waze I found shows an alternate turn by turn on the phone while I have the map on the stock display. Ram mount is the way to go.
Grateful info thku!!
Good video I learned some things thanks
Thank you, I'm glad you like it and learned something!
great information......thank you
Bill Thompson You’re very welcome 😊
My salesman showed me most of these tips. I have a 2014 and had to use the real key when the battery had died. Thanks for posting these tips Mike.
That's great that they showed you these, you are very welcome Kirk! 🙂
I have a 2009 C6 coupe. Thinking about a C7. Thanks for the nice video!
Have had mine for 11 months. Didn't know about the nav screen on the speedo...thanks!
Rick Czwartacki Awesome, I’m glad you learned something from it.
Just bought a C7 Z06 and really could use some of ur info... thanks
My c6 is a midnight racing blue, but with those wheels you have me considering that blur color very nice! 😎👍
Hi Mike, thanks for the tips. As you know i don’t have a C7 yet... a few days ago you gave me a wonderful tip to go for a C7 Stingray as opposed to a C6 when I’m ready to buy which will be about 5 years away when I’m ready to retire !
The magnetic phone holder looks like a great deal ! I ordered the Ultra thin one which is $30 from Amazon for my current 2013 Lexus ES350. They also have a Vent mounted one too but i dont want to block my A/C
did you buy the c7
@@kumaran5568 no last april i bought a 1999 C5 Hardtop w only 18k miles. amazing car
Great video... Thank you...
Johnny Smoke Thank you 😊
Sounds really good! What kind of mic did u use to record the audio from the outside?
Also valet mode locks the dash glove compartment. Great video man!
Yes sir, I totally forgot to mention that one! Thanks for the info and thank you for your kind words! 🙂
The nav in the gages was new for me. Thanks
Have owned my C7 Z06 since 2018 and never knew these features and options were available. Thank you :)
Just bought a C7 today. Thank you
Cool vid , million dollar question, how did u get the display screen to show the 360 you were doin in the parking like while recording in pdr. (Mines doesn’t show until after the recording)
Have a 2018 Grand Sport. Did not know about the stop on the key fob. Thank's
Rodney Fleetwood Awesome, you’re very welcome.
Thanks for the tips as I also own a C7. Just subscribed to your channel.
Pirate Ron You’re welcome, I’m glad you enjoyed them and welcome to the Brink of Speed community! 😊
Thank you for the apology at the beginning of this video. I never thought you were being mean or disrespectful. It just came across poorly. Your video of today is just great. I'm torn between buying a new C8 or picking up a bargain C7 Z06. Explaining cabin tech is great way to provide more information to make that decision. WE appreciate YOU too.
Chris Mather You’re very welcome Chris! I appreciate the kind words and if I were you, I’d wait to see the C8 before making your decision, you may want that more than a Z06 after seeing it! I’m glad you enjoyed this video, I love giving people helpful tips! 😊 Thank you so much for being a loyal member of this community! 😊
thanks for the info, buying my first Corvette a red 2015 Z51 w/6000 mi.
CHRlSTO1964 You’re welcome. That’s awesome, you will love it!
Love it how the subtitles have “[Music]” when the exhaust makes sound.
I had no idea about first two. Thank you. I don't have PDR or Nav. I just connect the phone and use that for Nav.
Amir A You’re welcome 😊
great video
Another great phone holder that uses the center passenger handle to mount to is made by ProClip. I have one in each of my vehicles. Great quality.
Good video, the first two may have been a little obvious, but good for those who didn’t.
Mike, great to meet you this last weekend and well done on those rewards! funny how you're wearing a Captain America shirt in this video to...foreshadowing much eh? lol
in love with your z06. hope i can get one soon.
Rahul Basu Thank you, I appreciate it.
Appreciate the video as I am overnighting in Istanbul. I am 62 and was not offended @ all! Blue skies, Jg
You're very welcome John, that sounds like fun! I appreciate it and fly safely sir! 🙂
Hi there, I have a 2016 Stingray Z51, which chip is a good plug and play you'd suggest that has great quality and best reviews? I've seen some that will get it from 460hp to 500hp but I'm still a little skeptical on those that run about $250 only. Would love your input. Everything else on the car is stock and only has about 5k miles on the car as well. It's the 7speed manual trans.
Thanks Mike, I'm about to purchase a Laguna blue 2014 Corvette Coupe like yours tue.
also in valet mode...in addition to the screen locking, the glove box also locks. pretty dope
that's right
any advice i’m going to look at hopefully purchase 2015 z06 m7 monday thanks definitely big fan
Mike,.can you comment on the throttle lag/response on the C7. I have a 2015 with a 7 speed manual.
Thanks
John G
I just bought a 2019 Z06. Still learning this car. Much different than the R8. Suggestions for radar and a camera? I would like forward and rear camera
I got one of those, it is great.
Forgot to mention, have the C7 Z06 LZ3 with Z07 package/ combo seats and stage 3 splitter, carbon ceramic rotors, etc. love it. Goin to get rid of slicks and get the Con extreme contact tires this week, thanks to your review from the other video
Alex Al Sweet, I’m sure you love your Z06 as much as I love mine. You will love those tires for sure!
Brink of Speed absolutely man. Discount tire just called me to let me know the new Con Extreme Contact Sport set of front and rear have arrived. Excited to put them on today!
Alex Al Nice
Brink of Speed HOLLY COW just put them on and tested on high way!!! Blown away! I actually have confidence pushing this car now under 70 degrees weather ... floored it with zero skid
Alex Al Yep, they are so amazing!
Excellent! Very beautiful design C7. Will be very missed! GMC should have offered the C7 front mid-engine style and a C7 with a rear mid-engine style. The C8 should have bean a whole new design in a Grand Sport and Z06 style only.
What exhaust are you running? I reside in Colorado, so air is everything. Nice videos
Mark Lewis It’s a 100% stock C7 Z06 as far as performance mods go. Thank you, I’m glad you enjoy them. 😊
Great video, jut reminded me that Is I still have to buy the memory card for my ZO6 PDR. What brand do you use and how many Mb or Gb do you have for your PDR? Great video as usual..
K E Thank you, I really appreciate it! Yep, you will need a 32gb SD card or less and I don’t think it matters what brand you use, the PDR is only 720p so it’s not high resolution.
@@BrinkofSpeed Appreciate it..
Thanks some those things I didn’t know
On more to add to your list. Please do not slam your trunk lid. Only light pressure is needed to close hatch or trunk lid. Just meet the lid with rear of car and there is a built-in motor that will pull lid down completely. Easy, Peasey!
Pam S. Actually this isn’t the case on a 2014 or 2015 C7. They didn’t add that to the C7 until 2016. Thank you for the thought though.
@@BrinkofSpeed very true! My 2014 doesn't have this unfortunately 😔
Good stuff
Terry Peden I’m so glad you liked its 😊
well done 😎
sharkzf6 Thanks. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
First Video in a long time that I ever hit the "Like" button after only 1 min. 27 sec. lol
Awesome, I love hearing this! Thank you for your kind words and support!🙂
Awesome ppic at 15:06 3 Grand Sports a 1 Z06 WOW videos
Love the ride man! Just got a yellow C7 Z51. Where can I get the mirrors, spoiler, and roof painted or wrapped. HELP!!!!!!
tumansdaddy Thanks, I bet you love your C7 and yellow is a great color! I’m not sure, just find a wrap shop near you and ask them to give you a price. 😊
After you pop the trunk and then the door open, if your battery is not dead and only your keyFOB is dead, you put the key FOB in a notch on the side of the steering column and it closes the circuit allowing the car to recognize your key and therefore start.
Yeah, I should have talked about that also, thank you for your info and support sir!
That thing sounds sweeeeeeet!!! ‼️😆💯
Thanks, man!
I like the quality and your video edits, if you don’t mind what editor do you use? Thank you
KeepItCrump Thank you, I use Sony Vegas 16
Sweet Nav tips!
Exhauste sounds good i definitely need help with mines just pick one up
Hey Mike, that's odd. I had a 2010 Grand Sport before I got a C7 and that vehicle had the pull down feature as well.
Pam S. Yeah, I didn’t know that because my 2009 Z06 didn’t have that feature either but, yeah, in the C7, GM didn’t add it till 2016.
Good ty
Miguel Rios You’re welcome 😊
Another option for a phone mount that uses the passenger handle in the middle is from iO Mounts, that’s what I have and works great.
Awesome, thank you for this info! 🙂
Top speed for a C7 Z51 184 0 to 60 3.7 That's stock not too shabby out of the box.
Valet mode on also locks the glove box. Great video!
Thank you
Question, Can a Grand Sport Rear Wheel fit on a Stingray Coupe 2019
Great, New to me!
The navigation is also displayed in the HUD.
Is the remote start function included on all c7's ? I have a 2014 3lt
Nice.
Did you know there's a slot in the steering column (where a key ignition was) that fits the remote! It's SO COOL> and a smart use of space.
Watching this again 2 years later and the Valet portion just blew me away. The locking screen is so cool. BUT I would never Valet my current Lexus ES 300 and I certainly would NEVER valet my C7 when I get one when I retire !!
Nearly 30 years ago I used a valet at a catering hall and a young kid who worked for the valet company took my car and totaled it. Most ridiculous situation and I’ve never used a valet since. I’d rather park it myself and walk
nice vid..thumbs up n subscr..im having trouble finding out if i can make the padel shifters more responsive on my 18 gr. sport with the 8 -speed autom..
scott barker Thank you, and welcome to the Brink of Speed community! They won’t get more responsive by doing anything to them. The faster you go, the faster they will shift. Meaning, the harder you push on the gas, the faster the car will shift. At slow speeds, they have a huge delay.
@@BrinkofSpeed thancs 4 the timely responce mr.brink-0-speed......im checkin in-2 a speed shop that says he can tune the transm. 2 shift didderently....but more responsive at lower speeds around town where moast of my driving is...ill find out next week when i take it 2 him...he is also going to put the car on the dyno...the motor is stoc...9500 mi. ive put an afe cold air intake on it + a x-pipe from west coast corvette..+ lastly n the best thing ive had done is ..yep the muffler delete...wow what a nice didderence..lots more pops n crackells in between shifts...
