Cool

Two things that get my attention are;

A) the amount of steering input the driver has to put in

B) the rear view camera that shows another car and which side it is passing on is awesome techno. I wonder if something similar to that is available for the c7 z06?

Here is some more information on the system when they came out with it on the C6R, it's pretty trick: http://www.wired.com/autopia/2013/03...e-racer-radar/

Go full screen, kick it up to 1080p and crank the volume.

The rear/side indicator system is awesome. Kind of surprised the FIA hasn't mandated that after the Toyota and Audi crashes at Le Mans.
This is the kind of tech that you hope would filter down to general usage a bit quicker.

By a different class of car. The Corvette GTLM doesn't have the hp or the aero of a prototype.
