New C7 ZR1: Brakes
Hey Tadge -
There's been a lot of interesting information available online since your introduction of the new C7 ZR1. One intriguing bit that caught my attention is the new brakes for the ZR1. Could you explain how they differ from what's available on today's Z07-equipped car? Is the brake cooling also improved over the Z07-equipped car?

Burning Brakes
brake options
Any chance we can expand the brake question to also ask about brake cooling changes with the C7 ZR1? The relatively poor brake cooling was one of the big issues with heavy track use of the C7 Z06. We saw GM add the additional brake scoops on the control arms as patch but I'm wondering if there were any more substantial changes made with the redesigned front end of fenders of the ZR1.
