Default C5z cam choice??

I'm looking to cam my c5z, I'm torn between the following

BTR Stage 3 ls1 cam 231/242 .617/.592 112+2 lsa
BTR Stage 4 ls1 cam 235/242 .621/.592 111+3 lsa
Cam Motion Titan 4 ls1 cam 227/232 .612/.595 113 lsa
Cam Motion Titan 5 ls1 cam 232/238 .621/.604 113 lsa
Vengeance Racing Vrx5 cam 236/238 .601/.605

Any insight or info y'all have would be much appreciated or any first hand experience with these cams/ dyno numbers

I realize this post is 15 months old, but, for anyone looking for info on cams, I just had the VRX5 dynoed using a MUSTANG Dyno.
Other mods:
BPP Rammer air intake, LS2 ported Throttle Body, Fast 92 intake, Livernois Stage 2 ported heads, AR 1 3/4' headers.
425 rwhp @ 6500 prm / 365 rwtq @ 5560 RPM
It has a VERY rough / lopey / choppy idle. Sounds great but not that great to drive around town, manageable but less than ideal.

As in every "what Cam" thread, it will start with "What are your goals?"
Drage race? Road coarse, Street or Dyno-King?

What I did not like about the VRX5 is that Tq doesn't start to increase from 315 rwtq until about 4200 RPM. Primary use for my Z06 is HPDE, road course activity and I'm looking for as much Tq as possible as low in the RPM range as possible. Any gains over 6500 RPM is useless to me. So, i'm changing my cam to the Titan 3. I should have the installed, tunes and dyno'ed before Thanksgiving, 2017

Of the above cams; I would suggest the Titan 4. It's about the same size as my first cam, and it produced (with TF215s) 466rwhp and there were no drivability issues. This was also on a Mustang dyno.
