A
rotary engine is
a car
party
piece
but there are a lot
of
things
that
make it so
exciting.
The Corvette runs on E85
racing petrol
the Corvette
has the
exhaust
pipes running
free
from
the front bumper.
This means
he's
also one of the most
unique-sounding
Corvettes ever
built
as
you
can clearly hear in the video. The
rotaries weren't
exactly designed for this
use
but somehow
they work perfectly on Hildebrand's
C6 monster.
The
entire
chassis of the Corvette has also
been significantly improved, reborn as
an
all-tube
chassis.
This saves
a lot
of weight,
but with the
angle kit
you can tolerate over 70
degrees when
turning
the
wheel
To manage the engine's
electronic controls,
the C6 Corvette now
has
the best
Haltech ECU
in the business.
The
car's
ignition and
almost all
other control
systems are
clearly visible
on the
panel above the drive
This
keeps
the
dashboard clean
and also means system controls are within reach
of
the
driver.
