- 2.2" wider front track
- 3" wider rear track
- Wheel and tire sizes from C6 ZR
- 3 levels, with varying degrees of aero downforce, with the Z07 version having more d/f than any production car GM's tested in their wind tunnel
- Compact 1.7L supercharger capable of 20,000 rpm and 9.5 psi of boost
- Pre-production versions set lap records @ Milford, beating ZR1 lap times

Stay tuned for the NAIAS reveal...
CF torque tube could be a huge win. To get AFM to work the torque tube went to steel for the C7. But also guess that will also be ĄŁ€$.
