Wow is all I can say!


I wonder what they did to beef up the chassis? That was the reason for no targa option on the ZO6, wasn't it? Roof = chassis rigidity?

Most of the Z06 group think the frame is not rigid enough. When we made the Dana plant tour, they say it was the strongest frame made for Corvette to date.

The new vert will be made with the steel frame.

Who knows.......
