The march to a mid-engine Corvette has been long in the making. I'm talking a good sixty years. And it's always the same story: a mid-engine Corvette is planned, it almost happens, and then it gets cut off at the knees for any number of reasons, both controllable and unmanageable. Racing bans, bankruptcies, internal opposition, engineering logistics and mechanical limitations. For as many times as the Corvette has almost been killed, only to be saved at the last moment, the inverse is true of the mid-engine variant: a dream nearly realized – but ultimately curtailed. But what changed? Welcome to the conclusion of the RCR Stories Corvette Trilogy: The March To Mid-Engine.
