2 missing millimeters of rear wing Gurney flap turned a good GT2 debut into a GREAT Corvette C6R opening performance at Le Mans 2010.
The Risi Ferrari failed post-qualifying tech inspection and handed P1 honors over to Oliver Gavin #64 [3m59.435s], just ahead of Jan Magnussen #63. Seems the 5.5L, running on race gas, sitting in that low-aero ZR1 bodywork.....works!

Pit cam shows new paint scheme on cars with white and blue like the 1960 car!!

The colors may be just washed out by the lighting in the pits

No witty commentary from Mr Gavin? Like: "I'am slowing down (in each straight) to count the grass snails for the escargo entree tonight" LOL... or "Where's that chick flag marshal I hear about? Here?...(stabs the brakes) "No must be next straight" (rips the accellerator coming out of the next turn in frustration... then lets go of the gas, engine backfires approching next flag bearer... "Nop, not here" rips the gas again LOL... Come-on BBV Fans... fill the blanks!

I think the all black rear end looks way better than the yellow background where the vette emblem sits. Bring it back guys!
