By Luke Lonberger from Blu808
Last year we brought you the Hankook, GM performance, Blu808 2010 Camaro. This year we are introducing the Blu808 X LG Motorsports C6 Corvette Formula DRIFT and Red Line Time Attack Corvette. This is a primary Blu808 effort with partnership, advice, and support from LG Motorsports. Other key members of our Corvette build will be Turn Key Engine Supply, Forgeline, Sparco, Aeromotive, Exedy racing clutch, Lab17 and others.
This thread will be a documented full feature build up of the Corvette.
We will show the following processes in detail.
Complete dismantling process Weight removal Chassis modifications Roll cage design and construction Pedal box fabrication Seating mount fabrication Drivetrain modifications Engine modifications Cooling system fabrication Clutch hydraulics fabrication Fuel system fabrication Carbon body fabrication Aerodynamics Wiring Electronics Suspension design and setup Steering system modifications Corner balancing Paint Final assembly Testing.
Any questions or feedback would be great.

Build start.
Here is our project car. A 2005 C6 base. We would have used a ZO6 but Formula DRIFT won’t allow aluminum chassis. Anyway.
