Thought this would be cool, Audi to race R10 in March 2006 in preparation for the 24 Hours of LeMans.

My other car is a diesel too, 2005 Jetta TDI.

Maybe Gm could enter an LBZ powered Corvette and concentrate on performance products for diesels. It could be the turning point for more diesels in cars and light trucks.

Duramax in a vette.... Hmm, would the rear tires even get a chance to touch the asphalt, or would the weight turn it into a big shovel?

That's the beauty of a Vette, engine sits mostly behind the front wheels for near perfect balance.

Nevermind, I'll find out in a different post/thread. I had almost forgotten it was the VW/TDI frame.
I apologize for temporary highjacking..:( :rolleyes:
