Maintaining speed around a track is far more important for lap times than the power required to accelerate around it...and this package (and the 1LE, for that matter) would seem to prove this.

If a 460 hp C7 GS is within 0.5 seconds of the C6 ZR1 around that track (Milford?), consider what it would do with ~15% more power.
Of course, the issue (as always) is cost. To do a Grand Sport otherwise the same as they did
plus a brand new 'LT6' type engine (akin to the C6 Z06's LS6) would cost thousands more. To hit the same price point they're aiming for with an 'LT6' included, it means sacrificing other go fast equipment -possibly to where its basically just a more powerful Stingray.
