Here's a link to the discussion and video talking about the test.

Further reading into the comments that were posted in the corvette forum, most of the hardcore members agree that these are the growing pains of a first year intro of a corvette model with a new engine. Some of the comments refer to issues that are in the ecm designed by GM to ensure that the warranty is intact for MOST of the customers that purchase this vehicle. Anyone wishing to pursue the full limits of the car will do so at their own risk. Vengeance Racing will be revealing their findings in the coming week(s) for those that wish to pursue those limits.

The Z06 is more car than the majority of people out there can handle. GM needs to serve the needs of their customers as well as keeping them safe as much as possible.
