Tough Breaks for Corvette Racing at Long Beach!

Historic 1.968-Mile, 11-Turn Temporary Street Circuit!

The streets of Long Beach weren’t kind to Corvette Racing this weekend. Both Z06 GT3.R entries were hampered by contact in a dramatic and chaotic 100-minute sprint.

The No. 13 AWA Corvette, driven by Orey Fidani and Matt Bell, overcame early contact and a trip to the tire barriers to finish 13th in GTD. Despite bodywork damage and losing a lap, the pair battled back to finish on the lead lap.

The No. 36 DXDT Racing Corvette, piloted by Tommy Milner and Robert Wickens, was running an impressive sixth before late-race contact tore away the left-rear bodywork, forcing an unscheduled stop with just 16 minutes to go.

The weekend still had its bright spots—Wickens made his WeatherTech debut using a hand-control brake system and showed impressive […]

Exciting news from General Motors! They’ve just revealed a captivating Corvette concept at their brand-new advanced design studio in Royal Leamington Spa, England. This concept, while not destined for production, offers a glimpse into the future of Corvette design, showcasing GM’s “blank-page” approach.

Key highlights include sleek, aerodynamic lines, a striking “Apex Vision” spine (a modern take on the ’63 Sting Ray’s split window), and a lightweight, 3D-printed structure. This design exploration hints at potential EV integration and a strong race-inspired aesthetic. The UK studio, staffed with top design talent, will play a crucial role in shaping future Corvette and Cadillac EV models for the European market. GM has also announced that there will be more Corvette concepts coming in 2025. Stay tuned for further updates!

Step into automotive history with this iconic 1968 L88 Corvette, famously part of James Garner’s American International Racing (AIR) team. This remarkable vehicle blends Hollywood glamour with high-octane performance, capturing the spirit of late 1960s racing.

In November 1967, three factory-built L88 Corvettes rolled off the assembly line in St. Louis, destined for Garner’s AIR team. These stunning Le Mans Blue convertibles were among the first to feature the groundbreaking L88 engine, equipped with closed-chamber aluminum heads. Acquired through GM’s Central Office Production Orders (COPO) system, these Corvettes were meticulously tailored for high performance.

After being picked up at Gene Jantzen Chevrolet, the cars made their way to California, driven by notable racers like Dick Guldstrand and Bob McDonald. Once […]

A True Legend!

Above, you’re looking at the one-of-a-kind concept car that launched the legendary SS (Super Sport) designation—a historic first that laid the groundwork for Chevrolet’s high-performance legacy. From the 1961 Impala SS to the 1970 Chevelle SS, this car was the genesis of it all. It also introduced one of the most groundbreaking powertrains of the era: the 283 cubic-inch V8 engine, producing 283 horsepower, paired with the revolutionary Rochester Ramjet fuel injection system—a cutting-edge innovation that set a new standard in performance engineering. This wasn’t just a showpiece—it was a revolution on wheels, even coining the term “Buzz” at the time.

The project was initiated by Ed Cole, who […]
