A C6-R lap whilst following the Luc Alphand C5-R......

....except it isn't a complete lap which is a shame but good none the less and interesting to see how fast the C5-R still is in relation to the C6-R.

Awesome stuff, thanks for that.


I'm going to dig out my footage from 2004 of the Corvettes, seem to recall I had some good stuff
around the Dunlop Chicane and Arnage etc and I'll post that up if anyone wants to see it.

OT: Need to sort out a LM shirt from you, what's the best way, to call or email you, credit card, cheque?

Away from the topic of shirts for a moment...

I thought the C6R was a slightly improved C5R - the main change being the body shape?

In truth the race cars bear little resemblance to the road cars (even the current Z06...)mechanically and appearance wise. (Race cars have a 6" section of bodywork added in the middle of the car to give it more width...)

Unfortunately because the C6-R has been so successful and rather than say to the slower teams "go faster" they try to slow down the more successful teams so the C6-R has at the moment 176lbs of "success ballast" and a smaller air intake restrictor.

The C6-R is a completely new car and there is very little carry over (if any) parts from the C5-R apart from the standard race car type parts.

Greast stuff, going on to my sons PSP so I can watch it again over an Arnage beat!! Anyone know when the video was taken? It seems to be before the redesign of the pit lane exit?

Look for the blue tab that says "CLUB" underneath you will see a link that says "Voir la video" that's it.
