Want a Win a Z06? Donate to the PVGPA and Bring Home a 70th Anniversary Z06 with Z07!


Pittsburgh International Race Complex or Pitt Race as it’s known was the first track to showcase the 2023 Corvette Z06. The road track was featured in the Z06’s cinematic reveal video and a year later, the Corvette Team hosted a number of journalists to the track for the first Ride N Drive in America’s newest supercar.

This special track is also home to the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix, a 10-day motorsport festival that’s been a tradition in the keystone state for 40 years. Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix Association is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that annually raises money for autistic and IDD charities. The organization just secured a 2023 Corvette Z06 70th Anniversary Coupe through Pittsburgh’s North Star Chevrolet, which they will give away to one lucky ticket holder in August 2023.

If you own a 2023 Corvette, you might want to ask your dealer about a new service update for certain units that left the factory with the incorrect suspension calibration programmed into the Electronic Suspension Control Module.

Whether the vehicles affected are Stingrays or Z06s, or both, has not been released by GM.

There is also no official word on whether GM will contact owners individually to inform them of the problem, but dealers have been told to fix the problem, under warranty, on 2023 Corvettes still on their lots as well as any cars brought to the dealership for any reason by customers.

The problem can be repaired quickly, in about a half hour, without any new parts, simply by reprogramming the Electronic Suspension Control Module with the correct settings. An inspection of the car takes 12 minutes, with the reprogramming lasting about 18 minutes.

We checked the TechLink website to see if there was more on this issue but came up empty.
