6-speed
on a 2011 corvette is the 6-speed manual does it have a hard clutch or a normal easy clutch when pushing on the pedal?

I don't think they are hard but some do. I would say your best bet is to go drive one.

Normal and easy on my '11 GS.
If I drove in rush hour, with lots of stop and go, it might get old though.

If you want to try a hard to press clutch pedal, try a mid-year big block.
The C6 clutch is a breeze.

If you're concerned about clutch pedal pressure, why don't you go drive one at a dealer? What might be an easy clutch feel for one driver might be hard for you.

It's easy, but the one in the CTS-V is even a little easier. The clutches on LSx cars do seem to be easier to drive with than a lot of cars I've experienced.

Even driving a used C6 6-speed manual will quickly educate you about the clutch effort required, which is not very much for 436 hp, or 505 hp !!
