Bear in mind the car ran the 'Ring in 7:41...lapped VIR numerous times until Aaron achieved a blistering 2:52...and performed admirably in a 24-hour road-course testing. With all these accolades and credits to its name...how can it possibly be as horrible as some are representing it as? My very humble opinion is that it isn't.

I realize the times. but I'd like to know the temps those days at those tracks. the 24hr test was broken up into 40 min sessions. beyond that information. was it 40 mins. look at data make a tweek send the car back out. or was it 40 mins today. 40 mins the next day. until we equal 24hrs of track testing. hense why I'm still concerned about heat soak.
I'd like to think that every shop is just trying to make their product look better. but in doing so, they are making GM look like they don't know what they are doing. So. . .looking at the private dynos. Heat soak was still an issue.
I do like the ZL1. And there's a reason I won't be buying it. and that's because I do intend to track a car if and when I get a coupe. I'm hoping a Z28 debuts by the time I can get it. with that said. I'm out for the night.
