Wicked! Nice work Corvette! Woo!

Great showing.

Was a great race. Can't believe the two corvettes were so close at the end after 24 hours.

If anyone is interested there are so rough TV feed highlights from the race ( all classes ) here: Motorsport.com

Was in Lake Louise all weekend but followed on the IMSA app. Another fantastic endurance race by Team Corvette! Nothing better than racing your teammate to the checkers for a 1-2 finish!

Well the 2 Prototype classes were kind of runaways but the 2 GT classes were exciting right to the end. Great race overall. Watched every minute

Well, Corvette was in the same boat 2 years ago. Gremlins with a new race car.

Mechanical Issues Force a Disappointing Sebring Finish for the Corvette C7R - Torque News


One year from now Ford GT will be a strong contender .... maybe sooner. We will see mid March at the 12 hours of Sebring!

Oh ya those Fords had the speed yesterday just didn't have the luck. I bet they see the winners circle before the end of the year. Luv the looks.

Shoot...I'll take one of each no matter where they finished. Watched the race, it was great!

Agreed that Ford will get the GT in the winner's circle, likely sooner than later. Doesn't mean I will ever appreciate the exhaust noise however

What? You don't like the bag of ball bearings sound? lol....

 

[NW-99SS]

Lol, nope, and speaking with other enthusiasts who heard it in person at Barrett Jackson this last weekend, very, very few people do like it.

 

[Riley P]

Sort of like the Viper. Great car.......until you start the engine.

 

[NW-99SS]

Haha! I won't lie, I've never appreciated the Viper exhaust either. Can't say anything bad otherwise though, the Gen Vs are good looking/performing cars.

Some Pics of the competition thanks to Larry. A long time Corvette driver in the Trans-Am and vintage racing series.

Excellent photos from Larry!

The 24hrs of Daytona is a race that I look forward to every year. And this race didn't disappoint. My god, I was on the edge of my seat for the last 15 minutes of the race and the last 3 laps....absolutely epic racing!!!
I was using the IMSA app for viewing most of the race and it was especially useful during the night. It's not a perfect app, but it's still worth it and it's free.
Great job to the boys at Corvette Racing!!! Should be an exciting season to watch. Next up, Sebring.
