With that said, I believe that the Chevrolet official top speed of ZL1 is 198, ZLE is 190. fastestlaps.com concurs.

For me, chopping off top end speed for some serious bite in the corners is a fair trade.

Oh for sure. Another factor that reduces my "delta horsepower" (making the cars closer) estimate are the drag and other frictional losses that are not quadratic with speed. I've been assuming the generated torque from the motor either accelerates the car or pushes against quadratic drag. There's probably a significant amount of it going in to roll resistance and changes in the drag coefficient as well.
