Detroit Auto Show: 2006 Chevrolet Corvette C6-R
Introduced along side the Z06 is the brand new Corvette C6-R race car. The C6-R is the most technically advanced sports car ever developed by GM and it has quite a reputation to live up to. The last Corvette race car, the C5-R, won its class in three of the last four years. Take a good look at this car, as it may birth a super-Vette in the near future. More pics at the link.
