The Decision
SO, I went and did iit. I traded my 2016 Z06 2lz auto for the 2017 Z06/Z07 1lz manual. I track the car and I was tired of the overheating. I got 11k off the car and at first I had buyers remorse until I started driving home and using active rev match. Couldn't be happier, a little less on options but I rarely used those. Can't wait for warm weather and back to the track! Better pictures to come. Great deals out there, if you're looking to upgrade.

Nice UPGRADE!!!
If I were a serious track guy, I would be waiting until January to see what that `18 ZR! is all about!

^^^I'm hearing different opinions on the Zr1 and release dates. But if it does, I'll wait for the reviews and then get one.

Hood
So explain the hood set up to me. I see a Ram air opening assume there are 2 also see about 4 vents to dissipate heat. Is that correct. Really is sharp. Does that stop the heat soak issue?

Congrat's, I did the same thing, except sold my 2016 z06 (3LZ) outright, then bought the 2017 z06 (1LZ). It appears/looks like the hood vents are a little larger/different then the 2016. You are correct there are some awesome deals out there right now, When all was said and done it was a $2,600 difference, got new tires to boot (LOL) and then with the Manual 2017 the overheating issue should be fixed. (at least for one tank of gas)
