Talking C6 Corvette Hydraulic Brake Assist System Research and Development

We just wrapped up a R&D session on the C6 Corvette - obviously MUCH more fun than working on a new truck application !



We really enjoyed thrashing this little beast around in "Competive Mode", which relaxes the active handling and suspension I'd guess about 30%



Playing around with the paddle shifter was also fun too! Too high of a rear end gear ratio though in this one, with second gear topping out at over 85 MPH.
30 MPG was definitely impressive though!







Re-adjusting the brake pedal height was simpler with the targa roof stowed in the back (and left me sore for a few days afterwards!)




Hey Scott, am I slipping or? I can't figure out how to have the images come up - maybe you have hotlinking disabled? Mod this post if possible to show the pics?
