The problems continue for GM’s Corvette Z06. Like most overall #1 Draft Picks in the NFL, the hyped-up 2015 Z06 just doesn’t live up to expectations.

Earlier this year, we speculated on an poorly programmed ECU as the culprit for some of the C7 Z06’s overheating issues, and GM has been in damage control mode ever since.

Unfortunately for GM, just this last week Motor Trend conducted their annual ‘Best Driver’s Car’ competition, and the new Z06 went out on Laguna Seca to lay down a hot lap – and all it laid down was an egg.

It appears that the new Z06 is still suffering from overheating issues, presumably related to the ECU (see above).

We actually are fans the C7 Z06, and are curious to see how it performs when running at full power. Even if GM fixes this issue soon, the damage has already been done in the eyes of many car enthusiasts.

For reference, here are some other cars that competed in this years Best Driver’s Car competition:
