Hi all, picking up my Corvette Z06 (with the 5.5L LT6 flat-plane crank DOHC motor) in a couple weeks and have a long trip home from the dealership (~6 hours) which is mostly highway driving.
My question is, regarding "varying the engine RPM", when on a highway, how often should I be doing this (every few minutes, seconds, etc.), and should I do it by changing cruising speeds within the same gear, or by downshifting/upshifting?
It's a dual clutch transmission and I read a random person's tip somewhere that during break-in, try to avoid downshifting to reduce the engine speed, as it puts a lot of stress on the DCT during break in.
Any other methods, tips? Thanks!
