Pretty sure that although Rick is a super businessman, very successful
Nascar team owner and dedicated Corvette collector, I doubt he knows
all of the particulars of the C7 and its' options. He may have heard about the upcoming track camera and assumed it was already on his car.

The front, performance-oriented, camera will be mounted high up in the windshield header. Won't do a thing to assist parking nose first. And its an option on 2015's, all models from standard Corvette to Z06.

They might put it there, we don't. If the existing equipment will accept a camera feed and display it on the screen, then I can mount the camera anyplace I like. The question is, can we get a 2nd video input into what the 2014 has? If no, then shucks.

I don't think I want a 2nd monitor screen in the car for the front camera. If I can get the video to display on the same screen as the rear camera, then I'd give it a whirl.
