AFM and Corvette C7 Z06 and C7R

IF the early announcements coming from +General Motors are correct, the new Z06 car will be using a carbon fiber torque tube housing.  Now, this is nice with respect to the weight loss that the C7 managed to gain in the process of "fuel economy increase" but... there is a big problem here.

Due to the employment of Active Fuel Management technology that forces the new Corvette to run on four cylinders quite frequently, the geniuses behind the development of new Corvette had to resort to using a heavier, STEEL torque tube housing to reduce the amount of vibrations the drivetrain produced in four cylinder mode. 

Now, the question has to be raised: carbon fiber matrix composite is considerably lighter than aluminum and even more so than steel.   How on Earth will +Tadge Juechter combat the vibration issue IF AFM is to be retained on the high performance model of Stingray? 

In case, there is no way to combat the vibration issue and AFM is eliminated in this car, will there be an admission of failure of this idiotic idea coming from Juechter or will this douchebag try to turn this new failure into another bogus victory?  No matter how anyone slices it, if high performance street and race versions cannot use AFM (just like it happened with C6R in 2007), then there is no way to deny that AFM is not suitable for high performance vehicles, including the base car.  Thus, the base car will have to be perceived either as a POSER CAR or a hidden failure.

Now, come on Juechter, which one will it be?  Is AFM already an obsolete technology and you really have no clue how to design a better Corvette? 

Finally, if no AFM on the Z06, why not an option with no AFM and less weight on the base car? 

PAGING TADGE JUECHTER!!!
