Just a heads up that the August 16 episode of Rides on TLC entitled "Core" will focus on the C6.R and the C6 Z06. Might want to have your TiVo's ready ![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)

Sounds like a good one though!

Yeah I liked the promo with the comment about the $10,000 brakes.

just finished watching it now. i must say i knew the C6R's had their problems and didn't get 1st in their class at Sebring but to see exactly what they went through and to come back for 2nd and 3rd place was amazing. i believe it was johnny o'connell that said that everyone that goes to sleep at night has nightmares about the corvettes. and with a race like that i can understand why. they were even saying that Ron Fellows in the 3 turned one of the fastest laps in the race, and that was after they had fixed it when it had crashed in one of the turns.

I finally got a chance to watch it the other night (recorded it earlier) and have mixed emotions about it. On the one hand it was cool that they went into detail about the Pratt & Miller team since they are really the backbone of the whole project, but on the other hand I was really hoping for some insight on the development of the production Z06. Maybe that's a future episode.
Also, it was unfortunate that they spent the entire show focused on Sebring. It would have been nice to get some footage from LeMans in there as well. Oh well, I guess that's just how it goes with deadlines and all...
