C8 Z06 High G Tire Lift
Just returned from C8 Z06 Corvette Owners 2 Day performance training at Ron Fellows Spring Mountain facility near Vegas.
Remarkable that the inside front tire is barely touching the raised apex in one of my many 1.3G turns last week - What a Beast!
Great opportunity to learn the performance envelope of your car but use their cars to do it - I'll probably never use 50% of it's racing capabilities of my Z06 on the street.
Inside front tire almost completely off the ground

If you can get a unloaded tire on the curb or bump you can get a lot of lift (first 2 pictures), but yes even without a curb you can get a small contact the unloaded tire (last picture)

Nice pic! I still can't get over how big those meats are in the back on the Z06. That's race car size.
