[quote=culver;796928]The ZR1 isn't much heavier than the standard Corvette. A quick search turned up the following:
3350lb for the ZR1
3180lb for the Z51 (standard Vette with uprated suspension, not sure which options)
3130lb for the Z06

You're quite right, of course. I was refering more to the overall upward trend in all capacities of this market segment, weight, grip, power... I haev a Focus SVT and, at times, I find that a little too heavy and grippy to be much fun. It feels heavy, and that not only dulls the responses, but makes one think about how far it might travel if and when the grip goes away.
