Spent my Friday at Limerock watching the American Le Mans practice / time trials.

The first half of the photos are of the Corvette racing team as Bangshift.com is doing a feature on them later on today. I'll post a link to that once it's up.

Good pics .
Needless to say , I love the Corvettes .
I'd like to get up under them and look at all the mods ...
Maybe I should call Gary Pratt at Pratt and Miller and see if he'll let me come over ...

With all the new Trim levels Chevy's making for the Corvette, they should put out a C6.r replica (mainly just something with that sweet ass widebody).

I'd buy it. I'd never own a house then, but I'd still buy it.

I agree, the widebody really is aggressive.

I was told not to take any close-up photos with the body panels off, but let's just say that it's FAR from a production car underneath the panels.

Pratt and Miller sells a street version C6RS .
It's not the latest wide-body , but it is built by the same company that builds the Corvette C6R.

That's pretty cool, I didn't know they sold them. It doesn't look nearly as aggressive as the real deal, though.
