Eray HTC in Ankeny but not a Z06/Z07. You could daily from April to October. For sure you would need a second vehicle for the winter season. Low MPG might be a bit much for a daily.

Not any tracks close to CR that I am aware of. You might to consider a new grand sport or an Eray if it is primarily a road car. Then again, none of those have the sound and visceral experience of a Z06.

Des Moines here, '24 Z06/Z07 car with comp seats. Daily? Not with the Cup2R tires and comp seats in my opinion! I got stuck in a couple downpours with standing water on I-235 and would NOT RECOMMEND! Outside of that, it would be a great 8-month a year car.

I took it on a road trip to Road America last year and will do the same again this year. It was great, and made some awesome memories with my boy. I haven't had the time to track the car but I can already tell compared to the last several cars I tracked, this will be a true weapon.

I haven't raced with our local NCCC club in a few years but we used to go to Hawkeye Downs quite a bit. Otherwise MAM (or whatever its called now) is about the closest.
