Now, if they put drag radials on the car and were able to actually get the FULL power to the ground, I will be the first to say that the Z will hit a 0-60 in 3.5 secs! So remember, I am not saying the Z does not have the power..boy does it ever, but traction on that car is going to be a big problem given the circumstances I mentioned above..

ok, dumb question but i want to be sure because i heard some people mention some weird stuff with radio pricing.....the $2900 2LZ includes the $1740 US9 (bose, 6CD radio) right? As in total of $2900 and not $4640.
?
it's only if you get the Navi that you are kinda paying for two radios, no?

The radio comes with the base Z06. The only radio upgrades are:
US9 - 6-disk CD Changer
U3U - Navigation

You forgot the cargo net that you get with 2LZ - also the compass that is included with the mirror package (but it's useless unless you're running straight and level) - makes for a whole new definition of "value". 
The Order Guide is not crystal clear on the radio options vis-a-vis' 1LZ and 2LZ, so for now I'll take your word that you've scoped it out.

so this isn't accurate?
http://performin.homeip.net/images/c6/c6orderguide.pdf
it seems to show the U3U as standard equipment (black box) with the 2LZ.

But it shows the U2K and US9 as Standard Equipment with the 2LZ. It shows the U3U as available.
But I see what you're saying. It doesn't say anything about a price change even though it deletes the 2LZ's included 6-disk changer. Hmmm...

Okay, here's the answer:
You cannot get the Navigation with the 1LZ package. I know it says that you can on the document, but according to CorvetteConti you cannot. The price of $1740 for the U3U is to upgrade from the 6-disk changer, which comes standard with the 2LZ package.
Again, this is as per Corvette Conti at DC.

The Z06 doing it at 3.7 with RWD is phenominal, and shows just how much more power and car it is than the 911 turbo.

Now, if they put drag radials on the car and were able to actually get the FULL power to the ground, I will be the first to say that the Z will hit a 0-60 in 3.5 secs! So remember, I am not saying the Z does not have the power..boy does it ever, but traction on that car is going to be a big problem given the circumstances I mentioned above..
