Death Wobble Under Hard Acceleration....New tires fixed her though.

[StreetRage320]

Thanks for this information OP. I had a similar circumstance with mine last year. I was in touring mode (wife in the car with me), went to accelerate hard from 30 mph into 60 mph zone, the car pulled hard left. Almost like a front wheel drive car under WOT torque steer, but much more severe. I let off throttle, counter steered and thought what the heck was that. Has never happened since, although I do not drive my car daily. I am still on original F1's 30 PSI.

to those that said this is a known issue, what does that mean? What is the issue?

The 6th gen ZL1's also are experiencing this issue.
There is a large thread on it on the Camaro6 forum.
Some, but not all, issues in that thread are the same as what I had experienced.

That is alarming.
I'm curious. Which Tires and aspect ratio? Transmission an M6 or A6?

I take my ZL1 out every chance I get now. 2950 miles on the clock.
I'm thankful the new tires have given me the confidence to really enjoy her.
Incredible the engineering involved. It is too much fun!
Hoping it remains this way.
