Default Corvette C6-R

The brand-new Corvette C6-R race car will debut at the 12 Hours of Sebring in March 2005 after a full year of rigorous testing and development. The two-car, factory-backed Chevrolet sports car program will compete in the production-based GT1 class (formerly GTS) of American Le Mans Series as well as the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans in France, a race where the Corvette has won its class for three out of the past four years. The new race car is the most technically advanced sports car ever developed by General Motors, culling years of experience from the dominant Corvette C5-R as well as the advancements brought forth from the next-generation Corvette C6 and Z06 production models.

If it's as fast as it looks, I'd put my money on the win ratio at 24 hours of Le Mans to go to 4 out of 5.

Yes but what about the interior. Will it have a place for my gym bag, iPod, and caffe latte venti? I don't want to be confused with the gold chains and chest hair set you know.
