Paul, nice thread....I would bring back the 1961-62 Corvette body style and size, put in a good adjustable rear suspension w/some Cal-tracs and wheel tubs big enough to accept a 10.5" tire...equip it w/built HD 12 bolt 4.56 rear, 6 speed, or a HD auto, and the current Corvette Zr1 motor, plus make available 3 smaller 4.8, 5.3, and 5.7 LS type V8 motors to run lower classes.... Lots of titanium and carbon fiber parts and keep it under 3,000 lbs raceweight, please.....Build 2500 total units WITH vin. #'s both years of a 2 year only build, so they COULD be sold to John Q. Public and possibly street driven....then get them into the Stock classification guide.... Giddy-up...
