On this episode of CORVETTE TODAY, you'll meet one of the fresh, new shining faces of the Corvette team. Cody Bulkley (pronounced Buckley) is the Performance Integration Engineer for the new Corvette E-Ray. Now, you're probably saying to yourself, "What is a Performance Integration Engineer?" https://youtu.be/jAlb0CCv6eI?si=YbBYl7OqiAkWWq-h; https://podcasts.adorilabs.com/corve...Yj6dBD5JYh43W0

Cody's excitement and enthusiasm for the new E-Ray is blatantly obvious in this episode of CORVETTE TODAY...it makes me want one!

    The hood looks very sharp. Much more creases than I would have though.

      Extremely nice Chaz, Let's hope that the car will live up to some of your fantastic renderings. BTW- Is it just me or are the windshield wipers distracting from the great looks of the vehicle? I just can't wrap my head around why we have to see them when they are not in use. I would think the engineers could at least make them look uniform or something so they are not an eyesore and I will rip them off the vehicle and invest in gallons of Rain-X if need be.

        Like the roof crease.

          Good looking rendering.

          I feel like the sharp point and heavy lines are part of the camouflage and we will see a smoother hood line, opinions on this anyone?

            I tend to agree with you.

              I sort of hope so. One of my complaints about the C7 was too many creases/detail-lines. But I am anxious to see the real product before passing any judgement. Thanks Chaz for the great work!

                Chaz’s hood rendering is very close to what we are seeing in terms of hood creases. Very close. I love its look with them. The C8 will not be a return to the smoother, calmer C6 look.

                    Nice render. Very close on the crease treatment. GM gave the designers more freedom than usual to create such daring and original design.

                      I doubt the actual car has that many sharp lines.

                          I don’t know what the final design of the body will be, but I’m sure it will look great in my shop. What I want is a midengined Corvette. They can sell me the cameo version Body package for all I care.

                            FUNNY post Racer86. With your track experience, they should drop off a camo’d C8 IVERS at your house tomorrow, have you directly provide GM feedback on shock, bushing rates, etc. Right now, BTW, if its development is paralleling the C7’s last nine months before the C7 started to be assembled for customers, that is exactly what the fine tuning on the chassis that is now going on — as were/are of course, attendant software changes.

                              I am sure that GM will get most of that correct. I would start at checking alignment to track specs with no tolerance. Past corvettes from the factory have some issues how much error or wide tolerance values. Next I would check bump steer and get base line info. Finally, I would check corner weights.i would do all of this to establish a base line setup.
                              I want a very sharp edge on my C8
                              Then we can start to understand what the car is doing and what we might be able to really fine tune. But, as stated, I think GM might be taking care of all of this in the design. It’s just the factory build tolerance and poor adjustments that might need attention. The things I mentioned are way above a GM dealer service dept pay level.
                              I love this stuff, it’s going to be big fun.
