There are four of us with C6 Z06 that track regularly in NorCal for the last 3 to 5 years with no issues. All stock motors. We all came from smaller, lighter cars and to a man are very impressed with the C6 Z06, in speed, feel, and especially reliability. I'll say it again, the C6 Z06 is the best handling stock-suspended car I have ever driven, and I have tracked Porsches, Lotuses, BMWs, and Ferraris. Doesn't meet your criteria of aero (well, one of us has aero mods) but all run slicks except one RA-1 user.

I think your stock motors is the key to keeping them alive.
so I don't think it would be realistic to expect Corvette to have same kind of material quality as Ferrari but charge you with their current bargain price.
Take a look at the Radio/GPS in a Ferrari and tne Radio/GPS in a Jeep Wrangler. Granted, you aren't buying a Ferrari for the radio but WTF.
The closest I've seen was SpeedSouth who actually built and had a reliable motor in their Z06 for a good while, then went all sponsor with LG motorsports and blew one almost every weekend last year. That car truly was fast, and they ran the crap out of it.
Tom and David build great cars. I was hoping for the best when they joined up with LG, but it really hasn't done them any good in the race dept. Just in the parts selling dept with their customer cars.
Isn't it just amazing what the government can build? I did love my C6, but will probably not buy another GM vehicle. Traded my C6 for a new GT500 and love it.
