I agree...I didn't know what an FRC was until I was at an autocross a few years ago and a guy was there competing with his, and I said that I'd like to buy a 'vette and autocross it...He said, 'get an FRC...In their class they are quite competitive'...So a few years later, I did (praise God!)..

Fixed roof coupe means just that - no targa. Good looking body style IMO.
