LS7-Powered 2001 Corvette Z06 Track Car Built for Speed and Reliability

A purpose-built 2001 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 has surfaced as a compelling choice for enthusiasts seeking serious performance in a race-ready package. Featuring a full roll cage by Fall-Line Motorsports and a race-prepped LS7 powertrain, the car is an expertly engineered platform designed for road racing and high-performance track day use.

Originally a low-mileage street car, the Z06 was transformed over several years into a no-compromise track machine. At the core is a GM LS7 crate engine, renowned for its broad torque curve and race-proven endurance. The powerplant, combined with the car’s retained factory ABS braking system, provides confident performance and consistent control during aggressive driving.

Suspension duties are handled by Moton adjustable dampers and custom control arms built by Phoenix Racing, enabling finely tuned handling and maximum grip. Stopping power is provided by an AP Racing big brake kit with radial-mounted calipers, ensuring fade-free performance in even the most demanding scenarios.

Thermal management is equally comprehensive. A custom-built cooling system keeps engine and drivetrain temperatures in check, while a vented extractor hood promotes airflow and reduces underhood heat—key to longevity on track.

Inside, the car boasts a Torch Red interior accented by a fully integrated, paint-matched roll cage that meets SCCA safety regulations. While function-forward in design, the cockpit maintains a clean, cohesive aesthetic that reflects the careful planning behind the build.

“This isn’t just a track toy thrown together with bolt-ons,” said one builder familiar with the car. “It’s a fully thought-out package designed to run hard, week after week, with minimal downtime.”

For drivers serious about lap times and reliability, this LS7-powered Z06 offers a turnkey solution—ready to hit the tarmac with nothing more than a helmet and a tank of fuel. See it here.
