Racing Makes The Difference

Carbon Fiber is the material that most defines race cars.
Even the NASCAR Impalas have carbon parts hidden under the metal.
eg - That old-school carburetor is likely covered by a carbon fiber airbox.

So, the Carbon Edition and Carbon Options added to the Corvette Z06 line-up are obvious assertions to the C6R / C6 connection. And a still closer validation that Corvette Racing best defines the Corvette brand � and Corvette credibility to enthusiasts��and the general public.

While the hard parts make the difference in the improved performance of a carbon-equipped Z06, BBV loves seeing the �racecar-connection� carried to the visuals with the black headlights [as, too, on last year's GT1 Edition] and black wheels that came on board in the �Jake scrape� designs that CR adopted that year. Thanks.

Need to scan the updated C6 Option List to see how the most-diehard Corvette owner / Corvette Racing fan can order the ideal Corvette Racing homage � a Velocity Yellow, Carbon Option, Z06 with black headlights, black wheels. The Jake emblems are ordered here. The aftermarket [or a call to Pratt & Miller] would supply the rear wing. And, the BlackTail, while no longer on the 2010 C6R, would still find its way back on to OUR Carbon Car.
