2011 Corvette Z06 Carbon Limited Edition

  Taking track-to-street technology to a new level
When the 2006 Corvette Z06 was introduced, it represented the closest connection to the Corvette race cars ever. The 2009 Corvette ZR1 closed the gap between racing and production even further. This year, Corvette continues its tradition of track-to-street technology transfer with the 2011 Corvette Z06 Carbon Limited Edition.

  Article 5 of 7
In our coverage of the Delta Wing, we have received some email that seems to be under the impression that the car is rear-steer.  This was fairly easy to mistake, as it has been mentioned several times that the design of this car incorporates what is known as an "active" differential (rear end).

Early race contact by Keselowski sent Edwards' Ford up into the wall which in turn collected Joey Logano. The incident completely destroyed any chances Edwards and Logano had of having a good run.  Worse yet, suppose the car flew into the grandstands and killed scores of people.  So much for NASCAR telling its drivers to have had it this year.
