Default More Bash photos - lots of them...

I know there's already some Bash photos that have been posted but I'm adding some of mine as well. I really like the new blue and although I'm not an orange fan, the new inferno orange is a pretty unique color. To me it has a kind of tangerine look to it. I don't care much for the new base car wheels but everything else GM did I loved. Being able to add black, cyber gray or silver headlight buckets to your order is awesome. Ok, on to the pics.

Edit - ok, this may be a record on how many pics you can post at once.

Not sure when these will be available but here are some of the new GM performance options.

Cove screens for the GS.



Flat black unpainted side skirts and splitter.



Black chrome GS badge.



Flat carbon console







Blue stitching in the Z06 Carbon











A lot of suede in the Z06 Carbon.



Some of the slides shown for 2011 changes.



New tires on the Z06 carbon and if you order a GS with magnetic ride I believe you get these tires as part of that package.






Updated/tuned Z06 exhaust











I didn't get the whole story on this but it's 1 of 1 made and will be auctioned off.

ZR1 coolers shown on their body off rolling chassis.



ZR1 header





The GT2 car. I talked to Johnny O'Conell and he loves the new car.







The linkage to run all of those individual throttle blades.





...and speaking of Johnny O... what does a racer do when he gets a chance...sorry Johnny, I couldn't resist



Callaway Chris was kind enough to let me drive this Callaway GS. You can really feel when the boost comes in and the fact that I never noticed the suspension tells you how nice it rides.



























I'm just speechless on this one.









What can you say about Steve Ray - just awesome stuff...









And my car celebrating it's almost 3rd birthday by returning to it's birth place.

Thanks for the pics. The SSB GS looks real nice in the photo. Can't wait to see it in person.

Default ZR1 Shorty Header vs. Hydroformed Exhaust Manifold

Did you take note if that ZR1 Short Block Header without a heat shield is standard equipment on all ZR1's or was that a one-off part?

I have to imagine that they flow alot better as compared to the hydroformed exhaust manifolds that are standard equipment on the Z06 and C6 and wonder if they are available through parts for 2011?

Was there any information as to what the specific upgrade was to the Z06 exhaust for 2011?

Thanks for the Great Pictures
I'm really liking the SSB and Orange colors,
Always hard to tell how nice a color is from a picture, but those pics are the best I've seen.
Both colors look great IMO
