Here's the next set of questions for the team.
I know it's been a slow go but keep the questions coming so we have a good selection and we will keep plugging along.
I see some good info to gain out of a couple of these.

1) Why did the 6th gen SS 1LE get wider tires at the rear only?

Given that the 5th gen 1LE and Z/28 both ran same-size tires at all four corners, I'm wondering what changed the philosophy specifically for the 6th gen SS 1LE away from maintaining the same tire size all around and simply making the rear wheels a little wider than the fronts.
Was it a downstream consequence of the bump in power and torque? Understeer budget or breakaway characteristics reasons and the Alpha chassis? Appearance? Other?

2) Can you expand on the recommended engine oils for track use?

In particular:
Mobil 1® 0W-40 (It's usually in stock locally and seems like a reasonable choice, but is not dexos2™ approved.)
Mobil 1® 5W-50 (It offers great protection and is possibly better for emission systems than Mobil 1® 15W-50.)
(Valvoline® SynPowerTM MST 5W-40 mentioned in the manuals is now dexos2™ approved.)

3) Where is the 7 speed tranny on the ZL1/ZL1 1LE?
