Default ZO6 issues

Has GM resolved the overheating issues on the ZO6?
And is that issue only when tracking the car vs. daily driving on the street?
I have a 2015 Z51 and am thinking about trading in for a 2016 ZO6. However, I most likely won't be tracking the car, just want to have the bragging rights of having the fastest Vette, but I don't want to make the trade and wish I still had my Stingray.
Your thoughts?

I am not Tadge but Tadge did answer this question last month. They haven't solved it but they are working on it. It might be fixed on 2017 with retrofit parts for 2015/16. If you are not tracking the car, I don't think you would have an issue. Ask the question on the Z06 forum as well so you can get answers from Z06 owners. Good luck!
