In tonight’s Octane Hour, we’re breaking down everything that came out of the latest Corvette Team discussion—from J59 brake durability and carbon fiber constraints… to hybrid tech like Auto Start/Stop and AFM sticking around… and even GM’s stance on Nürburgring records.

But here’s the thing…
👉 not all of these updates are easy to agree with.
We’re diving into:
🟢 The surprising truth about J59 brakes
⚠️ Why Auto Start/Stop and AFM are NOT going anywhere
❄️ New cooling changes on the Grand Sport & GSX
📲 Small User Interface updates GM is actually considering
🏁 The Nürburgring debate (and why GM isn’t backing down)
🧩 The real reason behind carbon fiber & brake constraints
Some of this is great…
Some of it is questionable…
And a few things might actually surprise you.
Let’s talk about it.
