However, Chevrolet Performance parts won’t void your vehicle warranty.

Not according to GM!

True Racers who bought the car for the track primarily usually want non mag ride.

Redesigned lower control arms that is interesting.

What would be the biggest benefit of that? Improve stability, handling, body control, reducing power oversteer out of corners.

Secondary radiator probably what the Z06 needs to battle the overheating.

For $20,000 extra in parts for the Z51, I'd just buy a Z06.

It seems the best part is the Michelin "slicks" that give it 4 second edge over the standard Z51 option. The increase in brake efficiency is huge though. At $17000, I'll pass and get professional training around the track.
