Ron Fellows is one man who raced and never looked back. He was the typical race driver who only raced because he wanted to race, not just because we wanted to win.

The result was that Ron Fellows became the most be-medalled race drive to ever drive a race car and became the fastest man to drive a Corvette.

Recognition

Chevrolet thus gave Ron Fellow his due commendation by issuing a Limited Edition Corvette Z06 Ron Fellows tribute car. This special Corvette has a number of features that makes it stand out from the rest of the crowd, literally. The finish was done in Torch Red with white center stripes and complemented by black rims. The interior panel was done in ebony interior and adds a host of accessories to go along with it like a performance pedal package, special seats, steering wheels, arm rests, shifter knob and handbrake handle all done in black suede with read stitching.

The engine received special attention with a Z06 performance package to go along with the six speed transmission, magnetic ride control, the attention grabbing dual mode exhaust that is standard on all corvettes.

Features

Other features that make the Ron Fellows Tribute Corvette easily identified are the red brake calipers, blacked out headlights and housings, a special edition blacked out side mirrors, carbon fiber raised hood and a set of carbon fiber ground effects featuring a carbon fiber front splitter and rocker panel.

Finally, the graphics detailing on the exterior was done in such a way that describes the winning effort that Ron fellows did on each of the cars that he drove during each of his races, including the champion C5.R and the C6.R Corvettes from the American 24 hour version of Le Mans.

Specifications

Chevrolet decided to celebrate 30 years of the corvette at the Carlisle Corvette show with this stunning Grand Sport Concept Corvette.

The Grand Sport Corvette features a hand built 6.2 liter engine with dry sump oiling system, a six speed manual transmission, optional gray six piston brake calipers, an optional gray headlamp option, a dual mode exhaust system and a set of Goodyear F1 supercar Gen 2 tires.

The difference with this version is the new Carlisle blue paint scheme, a magnetic suspension adjustment for ultimate ride control, rear spoiler, silver painted Torque 2 18x10 inch rims for the front and 19x12 inch rims for the back and a full body length pearl white, racing stripes complemented with a full carbon ground effects featuring carbon front splitters and rocker panels.

Inside

Other things to note on this special edition Corvette are the available accessories that come with the car.

The Carlisle Blue Concept Corvette is a one of kind car that pays homage to 30 years of showing off the best corvettes in the country, as well as to those people who made the Carlisle Corvette a wonderful addition to the growing number of Corvette enthusiasts in the country.

Specifications

The Chevrolet Camaro has been with us for the better part of 50 years. Ever since it was introduced in the mid 60s as a rival to the Mustang, the Camaro has enjoyed immense popularity with the enthusiast crowd.

The Red Zone Concept Camaro is an expression of that feeling with a host of new accessories that bring excitement to the simple joys of driving.

The new color employed is called Crystal Claret and it feels like you are looking at a big chunk of ruby. This is enhanced by a careful selection of rims from Chevrolet that is finished in silver with a polished face.

Different Look

The entire car is lowered using a Pedders kit. This kit is an official Chevrolet licensed product and it was made to lower the car and at the same time, improved its handling characteristics. The car also has a strut tower brace that effectively prevents any lateral movement of the front suspension assembly during harsh cornering, thereby allowing the front wheels to contact the road the way the suspension was designed for doing.

Stripes

Other noteworthy thing to note is the heritage stripes that you can see on the car. These stripes have an almost 30 year history that is attached to Camaro and it continues with this special edition Red Zone Concept Camaro.

One of the highlights of the car is the titanium leather interior with silver ice inserts and black leather instrumentation.

Specifications

This car was designed to race. This is the 1LE Concept Camaro. You may have heard of it before. This version of the venerable Camaro is not just a pony car. This has become a track and street machine that can run with the best; and allow you to cruise in style.

New Features

The car features a new paint color called Victory Red, a black hood and hash mark extensions. Other things to note on this model is the use of a six speed transmission, sport suspension package featuring magnetic ride control, an electric power steering system, dual exhausts that came from the ZL1, lightweight 20 inch rims riding on Goodyear Eagle F1 supercar tires, Brembo 6 piston front calipers on a two piece rotor and a 4 piston caliper on a one piece rotor for the rear.

The car also comes with a shock tower brace, a Chevrolet performance red engine cover, a performance pedal kit, flat bottom steering wheel, black leather interior and a matching Graphite silver door and instruments panel inserts.

Appeal

This makes it visually appealing whenever you drive around town, as well as a speed demon on the race track. The combination of the suspension package and the strut tower brace makes for a very responsive handling characteristic on the road, with the brace acting to prevent the distances of the shock absorbers from changing. This brace effectively prevents the wheel angle from ever changing in any sheer load that is applied to the suspension.

Specifications

*Based on Chevy Camaro ZL1

Nothing has changed from the 2011 edition of the Shelby GT500 except for three things.

Although the engine is a carryover from last year and it is still the same supercharged and intercooled 550HP 5.4 liter as well as the Shelby body that sold out all 5,500 that was earmarked for it last year, one difference from last year to this version is the SVT designed Recaro front seats.

As we all know, Recaro is one of the most easily recognizable seat makers in the world. This time, Recaro made their mark with the 2012 GT500 as the official seat maker for this model. The seats featured are a semi bucket design with additional support that bolsters the side for maximum comfort and lateral support.

Revisions

Another change for 2012 is the implementation of a selectable steering assist. This system was made possible because of the use of an electric power steering system that is used to help with the steering of the car. Unlike previous types of power steering assists, the electric power steering uses electric motors and load or speed sensors that are connected to the ecu in order to determine how much steering assistance to provide to the driver.

With the 2012 model, the driver has the ability to choose how much steering assistance that they want, to cater to their driving style on the road or the track.

The final addition is the Applink which allows the built in voice recognition software to properly understand the commands of the driver.
