Chevrolet Corvette Z06X Concept Is White Hot Glory 2011


Hit the jump for the full press release and check out our gallery below. The biggest weight savings, however, has to come from the polycarbonate rear window which is also lifted straight from the C6R. Chevrolet has also bolted on a new raised carbon fiber hood along with carbon headlight housings to shave a few pounds. The suspension wizards at PFADT were so kind as to supply a set of mono ball control arm bushings, adjustable stabilizer bars and a complete coilover suspension, too. Under the hood, the standard LS7 V8 benefits from a new low restriction intake and a more robust coolant system. Throw in an adjustable rear wing borrowed straight from the C6R along with a full SCCA roll cage and you've got the bones for go fast trackday goodness. Built by the Corvette legends at Pratt and Miller, this Satin White machine started its life as a Z06 with the CFZ carbon-fiber package. Called the Corvette Z06X, the bruiser is effectively a race-ready behemoth with a host of suspension tweaks and a slew of weight reducing materials on board. Chevrolet was kind enough to give us a sneak sampling of what the company has planned for SEMA 2010, and the star of the show looks to be the car you see above.

The Z06X Concept is being shown in a low gloss Icy White Metallic exterior color, accented with exposed carbon fiber body components and red trim. The CFZ package offers body components that enhance aerodynamic down force on the race track, including a front splitter. The 2011 Z06 with the Z07 package creates the lightest production Corvette and includes carbon ceramic brakes and Magnetic Ride Control. This concept car represents a mid-point between our GT race car and the production Z06, prepared by the team responsible for the Corvette Racing C6.R race cars, and featuring many performance parts owners can choose today. The Z06X concept is based on the Corvette Z06 with the 1LZ equipment package, along with the Z07 Performance Package and CFZ Carbon Fiber Package. Chevrolet teamed with Pratt and Miller, partners in Corvette Racing in the American LeMans Series, to create the concept. Racing is an integral part of Corvette performance and technology, said Tadge Juechter, Corvette chief engineer. The Chevrolet Corvette Z06X Concept shows how enthusiasts can use the brand’s expanding portfolio of performance parts to create a full on track car. To celebrate and suggest new ideas and components for the transformation of the production Corvette into a serious, closed course track car, Chevrolet will debut the Corvette Z06X Concept at the 2010 SEMA Show. Chevrolet motorsport portfolio is pretty expansive ranging from LeMans to club racing.

Camaro sales began in April 2009. On January 17, 2009, the first production fifth-generation Camaro was auctioned at the 2009 Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction. The winning bidder paid US$350,000 with all proceeds going to the American Heart Association.

By late June 2009, Chevrolet dealers were reporting that Camaro sales were exceeding availability, with prices running about US$5,000 above the MSRP. It was suggested that this may be influenced by the prominent presence of the vehicle in the Transformers movie sequel that was released worldwide through the month.

General Motors sold 61,648 Camaros in the 2009 calendar year. Sales of the Camaro did not start until April 2009.

2,750 jobs would have been lost at the Oshawa manufacturing plant which had been originally scheduled to be closed in 2008; some of these jobs were saved due to the new Camaro's production. This new product program and conversion of the Oshawa plant to a state of the art flexible manufacturing facility represented a US$740,000,000 investment.
