Use your garden hose, as you obviously don't use it on your lawn.
I still need to make it to one of your events.

I am the king of lawns and you know it
You should come to VIR in late September. Should be a great event and closer to you than any of my other events.
Hope things are going well

With 3 drivers in my car, it's time to prove that the C6 Z06 is nationally competitve.

Just curious, why wouldn't your C6 Z be competitive?

Gearing is funky and the balance is a bit off for autocross (according to some experts, I haven't driven one). Also, some say you can't fully turn off the AH and TC. Car is wider than a c5z as well. Not enough front tire/wheel compared to rear.

I think it can be competitive. The heavy hitters on the circuit prefer the C5Z over the C6Z. The most common things I hear making the C5 better are: shorter gearing, narrower in width, and obviously a lot more development time.
My car did pretty well in the Spring in Georgia. One of my 2 co-drivers took it to 2nd place in SS on the tour.
September will be fun.

The result was the highest placing corvette at nationals in SS. The car seems to work fine with very little development. YMMV

I dont think the C5Z needs a lot of development time. All I did was put on a front sway bar, off the shelf single adjustable Konis, and tried a few different alignments.
