Beautiful photography.
It's amazing to note that the difference between the production engine and the race engine:
The level of power available in an off-the-shelf, sub-$100K car these days is incredible.
It's amazing to note that the difference between the production engine and the race engine:
the C7.R gets a naturally aspirated 5.5L engine burning E85 compared to the production Z06 which gets a 625hp, supercharged 6.2L. Even with the smaller displacement, the C7.R race engine breathes through a pair of restrictors.
