I'm not sure how I feel about the vMax claims as C&D only hit 18x with theirs. Clearly removing the aero bits allows for a higher speed, but that just seems a little contrived if you have to remove parts to get the top speed. So it's either set up for the track or for a hypothetical test track vMax, not both.

I know it's cheaper than a GT3 RS or certainly a Macca 720s, but both achieve their vMax without taking parts off and while retaining their track prowess. Hopefully the C8 won't need these shenanigans.




I don't think there's any "shenanigans" going on. The ZR1 with the ZTK track package (the big wing, stiffer suspension tuning, and some other things I don't remember) will have a lower top speed than the "regular" ZR1 with the lower wing.
