Those aren't enhancements, they are requirements to make those cars even somewhat launchable.
Better watch out for the Colbalt SS TC, the mags just tested it in the quarter and it turned 14.0 at 103 mph. I have yet to see a stock Kappa pull that trap speed. I guess launch control and no lift shift are working pretty well and the 103 says the hp is there. It is pulling .9 Gs on the skidpad as well.
Dont get me wrong, still not a balanced track car because the front drive configuration but now no slouch on the street, you may be surpised.
