I love the way the Barb Wire accentuates the hips from the rear!

It's not that different from past years so it's ok by me. Anyway, I would have preferred Red, White and Blue.

I'm blinded by the beauty of the car itself and they haven't managed to make the livery ugly enough to destroy the car. I wonder how those stars will look at night races.
They're probably there to blind Bergmeister, Bruni, Müllers, etc. as they'll be staring at that beautifully tattooed arse.... err "rear".

YES, YES, please! Enough with the Belgium Racing Yellow (and barbed wire??), let's make it really look like a good ol' USA team:


1957 Sebring


1999 SEMA, 2000 Sebring Test



2003 Le Mans

Did you guess that this is a real hot button for me??

The Corvette-Motorsport web-site has posted it's reviews of 2009. Parts 1 and 2 so far, I think there is still a Part 3 to come. Part 1 is a little jumbled and hard to follow but Part 2 is very good as it focuses mostly on the 24 hour races at Le Mans and Spa.

The web-site is here: http://www.corvette-motorsport.com/

Then go to the Videos section and enjoy.

According to http://auto-racing.speedtv.com/artic...day-notebook1/ Corvette will evaluate some American drivers at Sebring next week for a possible drive at Le Mans: Paul Edwards, Butch Leitzinger and Graham Rahal.

I think that is great for the american racing scene. don't get me wrong, i like all of the current foreign drivers, but as seen in the open wheel ranks lately, there aren't a lot of spots for talented americans these days. hope this works out for the team.

Probably never happen, but, a GM of Europe Corvette 'Werks or Semi Werks' team added would be stellar!

Who says that won't happen? Pretty sure that, once they've got the car sorted out properly and they build a couple more, they'll send them to the LMS. They did that with the GT1 version, didn't they?

Those are customer cars! They all ready have a couple of customer cars built. During the GT-1 era Corvette Racing was pretty conscious about not racing against their customers, just wondering if/hoping that will change with the class switch and we will see a more official 'Werks' effort on the Continent!

Oh yeah... I've tripped over myself here. I could've sworn that Corvette Racing sent a couple of works cars to the LMS for one season. Looking through the results, it seems that I was indeed wrong. Sorry.

Really good news to see Butch and Graham fighting for a chance for a ride. I have no trouble with going for country-men for a car, as long as they're good drivers and you can't argue about those 3 guys.
There's only 1 spot, from what I've seen?
