Chevorlet Corvette C6-R hmm.. I thought they were still gonna use the C5-R any link to specs or pics?

 

[jross427]

nope theve (Chevy Racing) have kept it very under wraps, but they were saying something about it being shorter than the c5-r

 

[jross427]

does anyone have any info on any new entries that have been shadowed by the big names

 

[Firestarter75]

Champion will field 2 cars all year.
C6R will be debuted at Sebring.
Creation will be looking to do more then the big 3, they are also running the LMES but will fit in the races when they can.
Miracle will have 2 entries next year, Bucknam has folded up camp and will run a courage with them.
Aston Martin will be Sebring only then prep for LeMans, after that who knows.
Also figure Field and Dayton will be running something then the kid and maybe Liddell again in LMP2, although i think the kid will be in 2.
