Corvette Racing Takes Victory at Imola!


Corvette Racing roared to a milestone win in the 2025 European Le Mans Series, claiming its first victory of the season at the legendary Imola Circuit in Italy!

Piloting the No. 82 Corvette Z06 GT3.R, the TF Sport team—Charlie Eastwood, Rui Andrade, and Hiroshi Koizumi—delivered a commanding performance in a challenging, rain-soaked four-hour sprint. The Corvette crossed the line with a dominant 7.4-second margin, leading 63 laps in total.

Koizumi kicked off the charge with a heroic drive from the back of the pack to P2. Andrade kept the pressure on up front, and Eastwood sealed the win with a flawless final stint.

Wishing You a Joyous Fourth of July!

As we gather to celebrate the Fourth of July, we reflect on the spirit of independence and the values that unite us as a nation. This day commemorates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, marking the birth of the United States of America.

Whether you’re planning a backyard barbecue, enjoying a fireworks display, going to a car show, or simply spending time with loved ones, the Fourth of July is a time to appreciate the freedoms we cherish and the opportunities our country provides. It’s a day filled with patriotic pride, festive activities, and, of course, plenty of red, white, and blue.

Let’s take a moment to honor those who have fought for our freedoms and continue to serve our country. Their dedication and sacrifice ensure that we can celebrate this day with joy and gratitude.

In With The New, Out With The Old

According to GMAuthority.com, the 2026 Corvette Stingray is bringing big updates from fresh paint colors to a redesigned interior, and even the debut of the powerhouse ZR1X hybrid. But not all changes are additions.

Two wheel options are being dropped for 2026, including the popular Carbon Flash painted Q8Q wheels, with no replacement planned. The old base wheels are replaced by five-split-spoke Pearl Nickel forged aluminum wheels. That means the Stingray’s wheel choices drop from ten to nine.

If you’re a fan of the outgoing styles, now’s the time to grab a 2025 while they’re still available.

ZR1X, Not Zora!

GM isn’t ruling out the use of the Zora name in the future.

Corvette fans have been buzzing with anticipation over Chevrolet’s latest high-performance masterpiece: the 2026 ZR1X, but alongside the excitement, there’s been one big question on everyone’s mind: Why isn’t it called the Zora?

After all, Zora Arkus-Duntov, the “Father of the Corvette”, has long been associated with the dream of a mid-engine, world-class supercar. Wouldn’t this new AWD, twin-turbo hybrid beast be the perfect car to bear his name?

The ZR1 badge is already legendary in Corvette circles. First appearing in 1970 on the C3 as a factory race-ready package, and later resurrected with the iconic C4 and then the supercharged C6 and C7 monsters. The ZR1 name signals extreme performance, cutting-edge tech, and track prowess. […]

Bring a Trailer Auction Ending Tomorrow! The Legendary 1968 James Garner L88!

Now Live on Bring a Trailer and Ends this Friday at 10:00 AM PST!
Click here to see the auction.

Click the picture above to watch Mike and Jan discuss this incredible L88

Corvette Mike is proud to present one of the most iconic race-bred Corvettes ever built — the 1968 Le Mans Blue L88 Convertible once campaigned by James Garner’s American International Racing (AIR) team.

This isn’t just a Corvette — it’s a rare piece of motorsports and Hollywood history. One of just three factory-built L88 convertibles delivered in November 1967 for Garner’s team, this car was specially ordered through GM’s COPO program and features the legendary L88 engine with closed-chamber aluminum heads.

From the silver screen to the racetrack, this Corvette captures the fearless spirit of late-1960s American performance.

The auction ends this Friday, June 20th at […]
