Putting the power down earlier allows for the 3 second per lap advantage. Yes 3 seconds at speed is forever.

I'm not sure what thread a question was raised regarding the Z06 changes, but here's some 2017 Z06 pictures.

Very cool to see the better cooling solution in the z06 too!
Also I wish the "Ranger z06" corvette guy would set m6 1/4 times with the new zl1 too! |

Taken at Corvettes at Carlisle in PA. GM brought a good number of Corvettes.

Yes they also added larger and extra radiators to the Z06 like the Grand Sport.

As well as a new top lid that moves the bricks higher in the manifold. Also new bricks as well. It is said that all 16 and up Corvettes will be retrofitted.

No way GM is going to drop 10's of millions to retrofit existing cars. Not something they do unless it's a safety issue and that's been questionable up until recently.

^^^ I agree. They might offer the parts to retrofit, but they're not paying for it.
P.S. Dang Bucknut your C7 looks like a monster. Any times?
