Exactly. People are sheep. If I was in the market for a 2 door sportscar, I wouldn't buy a Mustang because Ford also makes a GT500 and they're making a new GT. I'd buy a Mustang because it fit all my requirements and I liked it.
If it was something that directly correlated to on-track testing, such as tech from the Corvette racing teams making it into consumer Corvettes, that's a little different. But I wouldn't assume that tech from a Corvette racing team was making its way into any other random Chevy car.
