Are you sure those guys at Callaway know what they are doing? Just take a look at their FIA GT3 record for the year maybe you want to go with another shop to get better results

Vette looks AWESOME is the cage done in aluminum tubing? Just wondering how it attaches to aluminum frame if it is bolted on. More detail shots of cage installation would be great.

You live in a great country for drivers, I lapped the "Ring" in a V50 Volvo turbo diesel wagon and SMOKED the front brakes during the lap (didn't know till later that rental cars can't be used on the ring.)

I agree with you about the wing, not my thing. BUT I'm realistic about the wing, its a functional part of the package. Its a race car, not a street car. That car is badazz!

I was JOKING! most American Vette enthusiasts don't even know of this 2010 GT3 Championship earned on what I feel is "enemy territory". Callaway did a FANTASTIC JOB in winnig that championship agaist all the world's so called "Super Cars" I guess we know which one is the real SUPER CAR now

Next time someone trys to tell me how great a R8, F430, Lambo, Aston, Porsche or GTR is compared to my C6Z I have an answer for them.

I only fear the FIA will brandish the Z06 or it's replacement with severe weight/performance penalties to allow the underachievers to catch up to the Corvette next year.
