I have read that corvette acceleration tests - 0-60 and 1/4mi - performed in California with 91 octane, are slower than those in states where 93 octane is used.

If this is the source of the oil smell, then I don't understand why it only started after the first oil change - a pattern that almost every other person with this problem has reported.

I finally took my 2012 Zr1 in for its first service after 9 months and 3500 mi. Just an oil change at a high volume Corvette dealership with a lot of Z06 and Zr1 traffic.

When I ordered my 2012 I was surprised that the standard Zr1 wheels were not available in black. They looked great on the Z06 carbon. I went with comp grey - not as sinister as the black.
