Max Timing at WOT

How much timing are most people running on stock Z06's? I was expecting to be able to run 28* on 93 octane. Any input is appreciated.

That sounds about right. I run a bit more here because of the altitude, (7550'). Running right at 32* and using 91 octane gas, no 93 available here.
You should be fine at 28* with 93.
