Yeah, I just looked it up. The Z06 bested the ACR in instrumented testing but lost on the track.

It's been a while since I watched the H2H but I thought the aero kit was on the whole time.

I remember them showing the Dodge guys adding it while at the track. They call it "Track Mode". The rear wing was already on. Here's a pic without "Track Mode" on.

The hood is different on the Gen 6. IMO, the angled areas on either side by the windshield look out of place.

A lighter color accentuates it. Some may like it. I'm not sure, but an in-person view will be a must for me. Pictures can be deceiving sometimes.

Meh, it's the dash that gives off glare usually that would effect the driver, not the hood. That is why so few race cars, if any have matte black hoods.

I'm still on the fence if I will remove it or leave it, depends on the color I think...
