Overall Performance
The Chevrolet Corvette Z06 has a stock top speed of 305 km/h (190 mph) for Class A. The acceleration of the Z06 is good but the nitrous output is weak though. The handling is good at lower speeds but at higher speeds the Z06 is very unresponsive as it tends to lose turning stability. It can also drift a lot when entering corners which means that the Z06 relies a lot on braking. But due to the acceleration the Z06 has it can easily regain lost speed.

For Pursuit Outrun and Team Escape the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 performs well. Due to the weight it has, the Z06 can go through roadblocks without any major problems and the Z06 can remain stable when colliding with heavy police vehicles such as rhinos. But due to the unresponsive steering it can be hard to dodge them.
