“It might just seem like we’re putting a bigger engine into the car. But it’s been a balanced approach through and through,” said Jamal Hameedi, SVT chief engineer. “We’ve completely redone the car to be even more sophisticated in terms of handling and control than the prior model.”
Other keys for improved traction management include:
Torsen limited-slip differential:When customers order the optional Performance Package, they will get a Torsen limited-slip differential that helps the rear suspension deliver maximum torque and traction better and longer under track conditions
Launch control: A new launch control system lets drivers set the desired launch rpm depending on tire temperature, street surface or other conditions. Unique to SVT’s launch control is that it is integrated with both the engine control and traction control."

Exactly and they improved launch control and traction control so do they not have it under control? we won't know till the reviews come out, but you can bet any car with 500+ hp no matter what is on it is going to have traction issues with the wrong driver. Some people talk like the ZL1 won't even peel it's tires because of the MR suspension lol
