They still cover the hood... though we've already seen it.

We made it the DC header.

It still has Z06 seats... But that does look like a carbon fiber top

The article made no mention of it, but it really sounds like this is going to be an exhibition of the ZR1's performance for a crowd. I think that's a FANTASTIC idea! I'm wondering if it will be a full on hot lap or just a parade type lap, since all the testing for the car should be long completed and there's no real reason to go all out. Comments?

Edit: this article from their site says "hot laps"

I'll bet the new stuff (hood, coves, etc.) is still covered up though. I don't believe they'll "open the curtain" yet.

According to the Motor Trend Blog, the hot laps have already happened and the ZR1 has left the area:
