Racing toward the future
Designed to compete in GT3 races and championships around the world, the Corvette Z06 GT3.R is the latest in a line of long-standing victors on the track. This track-only Chevrolet race car is available to both pro and amateur teams.
An historic 24 hours
TF Sport and Corvette Racing reigned in the 24 Hours of Le Mans as the team’s No. 33 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R of Nicky Catsburg, Jonny Edgar and Ben Keating earned a hard-fought LMGT3 victory after starting in the 17th position.
It’s the 10th class victory for the Corvette Racing program since its first Le Mans win in 2001. “What an historic day for General Motors and Corvette Racing,” said Mark Reuss, President, General Motors. “You have earned your place in the history books!”
Designed to compete
After proving itself in the GT1, GT2 and GTLM/GTE Pro categories, Chevrolet competes in the GT3 category with the street-inspired Corvette Z06 GT3.R.
Street-inspired track star
Although based on the design of the street-friendly Corvette Z06 and its 5.5L engine, GT3.R won’t be street legal. The track-only race car will be modified with racing-specific equipment and will comply with FIA regulations to compete in multiple series and drive circles around the competition.
