If it does exhibit that dramatic a rearward lean the beauty of the Penske's is I can just add spring rate and get the shocks revalved for cheap. For some reason I do not think it does to that degree.

In that photo from Pocono I am hard on the gas in 3rd. You can see the C7Z lifting it's nose in the back ground is as well. My Wife's car just goes with a bit of power oversteer off the corner.

Her Corvette is the easiest car to drive quickly I have ever been in so far. It doesn't really push except in the very high speed stuff which leads me to believe it's not as balanced as it could be. I will do a real splitter setup over the Winter. Leaving it like it is for this season.

We got tons of pics over the weekend and no squat like that at all.

Here are both cars. I am shotgun in the Viper with my Brother in Law at the wheel. My Wife in her car right behind us.
