My 2006 Z06 weighted in on a scale at 3114lbs with fluids and has around 600hp (532rwhp). Wonder how it would do against the C7Z.

The C7R engine needs to be broken down and rebuilt several times per season. There is a reason race engines are not in street cars, they are not built for road reliability.
