On the 5th Gen ZL1 the steering rate is also increased (tighter) in Sport Mode and PTM 5 which is Race. I assume it's the same for the 6th gen as well.

This is my first car with mrc and from my experience I can tell a huge difference. Tour is pretty comfy, sport stiffens up and on the road near me it is a rough ride. I haven't been in track mode much, the steering is too heavy for normal driving. If it weren't for the run flats the tour mode would be really nice. and i am not saying the run flat ride differently, they are much more noisy. The noise fakes your mind in to feel the bump more than you really felt it.

The road out in front of my hood is under destruction. It is slated for widening and resurfacing. The first mile or so of my commute is pretty rough. So much so that I've taken to cutting through one of the neighborhoods to miss the mess.

I have driven cars with MRC but I haven't owned one. My take on it is that it's possible that the baseline settings aren't much if any different in track vs. sport, but they have a higher threshold for how much it will stiffen to control the car over bumps and for corners. I guess that's one of the advantages of magnetorheological shocks; they can still be reasonable over small bumps or in normal driving, but assert control when necessary.
