Don't think so. Looks like Gary Claudio to me. That was Buzz Nielsen getting out the passenger side. Larry Hayes (IMSA official) was the fellow directing traffic. The red C4 was driven by retired Corvette chief engineer, Dave Mclellan.

....sorry, but that did not sound very impressive, our delivery truck at work sounds the same... 
...the side profile looks pretty cool, but they look like there trying to squeeze it smaller.... 
...I would really like to see a "Mid Engine" version..... |

If all the girls get prettier at closing time....then why should I get there early and get drunk...... |

I agree with the above poster.
It sounds very truckish (ie viperish ). Not very impressive sounding. |

I don't mind the sound, but the newer vettes (C6Z included) sound alot like my grandad's 1971 grain truck.

its not going to sound much different than an LS3. it just has a stock exhaust system. put a good set of borlas, magnaflows, bullets...etc on there and it will sound just as good as the rest of the ls family.

It's Tom. I've been friends with him and his two sons since the late 80's. |
