believe they all do bro lol.

All six generations of the Corvette have used leaf springs in some capacity. The basic arrangement for each generation is listed as follows:

* C1 (1953-1962):

Front: Independent unequal-length double wishbones with coil springs
Rear: Rigid axle supported by leaf springs and longitudinal control links [1]

* C2 (1963-1967), C3 (1968-1982):

Front: Independent unequal-length double wishbones with coil springs
Rear: Independent suspension with trailing and lateral links supported by a centrally mounted leaf spring[2]

* C4 (1984-1996):

Front: Independent unequal-length double wishbones with transverse fiberglass mono-leaf spring mounted to allow for anti-roll effect.
Rear: Independent suspension with trailing and lateral links supported by a centrally mounted fiberglass mono-leaf spring

* C5 (1997-2004), C6 (2005-):

Front: Independent unequal-length double wishbones with transverse fiberglass mono-leaf spring mounted to allow for anti-roll effect.
Rear: Independent unequal length double wishbones with transverse fiberglass mono-leaf spring mounted to allow for anti-roll effect.

And here is the Leaf Spring

well all im gonna say is.. if the ZR1 uses leaf springs there must be a reason. that car is the absolute best of 2009.

GM's reason is weight savings, also helps with anti-roll, and knowledge on it's design, GM has been making leaf springs for how long? They better be able to do something right.

well apparently it does after looking into it. honestly though bro, im not sure it matters. the ZR1 is an absolute super car killer and she is a beast on the track.

the zr1 is scary good on the track, I just don't know how they pull it off with leaf springs. I still love the car don't get me wrong, but yeah odd combo eh?

LOL... i would fuck you up in a heart beat. I would get my new white friends to fuck you up if you got too close. :D

I know all the people you know and they like me more.

:D
