Mostly the c5r is wider than the stock corvette, both at the wheel arches and at the shoulder (top of the body) the overall length and wheelbase are shared with the production models. The GTS rules allow for much more leeway in the body modifications than the GT rules. The Prodrive & raffanelli 550's have been modified in much the same way from the street version, as has the viper. The idea with the GTS rules is that the car has to retain it's production character (unlike the Trans am cars which look nothing like their production counterparts, other than the headlight and tailights IMO) Robert
