Light Weight / Track Component Options?
Is there any chance of GM/Team Corvette offering to the public, special Light Weight/Track Only components available either from the Factory or Catalog for the C7Z06?
Items such as;
1. Titanium Exhaust with distinctive exhaust tips, more trapezoidal.
2. Light Weight Track Seat w/rail. Removes power adjustment. Driver and Passenger, includes 5 attachment points for Harness
3. Harness Bar option
4. 1080p Front and/or Rear view camera add-in option.
5. Forged Track wheel option, 18's and 19's.
6. Rear wing, would require removal of rear wicker bill for track.
7. Aggressive front splitter, rear wing also recommended for balance.
8. Quick change Brake Fluid kit.
9. Modified raised (bubble) Roof option, maybe 2 levels to give added .75 or 2 inch clearance for tall drivers with helmet on.
10. Long tube Headers
11. Light Weight Battery
12. Light Weight Clutch/Flywheel option
13. Spool-Valve Dampers option
14. Carbon Fiber Tub..., j/k.
The idea is to trim the car to under 3000 lbs.
Any other idea's I left out guys?

The option to get the car without ac or radio... Maybe even the option to have no interior carpeting or sound deadening. That way you get a new car that comes from the factory in a cleaned out state, it retains more value, and is less work for those who want a race car with license plates.
EDIT: Just to roll it all up - how about a model thats like a 911 GT3 version of the Vette?
They could even develop models to compete against the "RS" and "RSR"
