Motor heat soak - got it! Interesting as I haven't heard it from the ZR1 guys.
Thx for the info - appreciate it.
Ya, that's a real issue. On a cold damp morning the S/C monster screams fire and the earth shakes. Hot and heat soaked, um, not so much. In a long race it is an issue in its stock configuration.

This is the hard part to get our head around, in the way that half a second is a lot and 3+ seconds is complete "blown away". Check Top Gear UK and the time difference from 2/3's up the Stig's chart to the top. Not a big time span but a 0.1 means a lot. Not my rules, it's just the way it is.

I do agree with the expectations not being fulfilled by the many. I've even mentioned before that the Z/28 far exceeded my own. I believe this new Z/28 should be named "Z/28-R" as it fulfills that IMO. And I do agree with your final comment.
This makes the most sense. But, we would have deprived ourselves of millions of useless internet debating and arguments and what's the fun in that.
