Entering a 2-door spaceship-like machine in an attempt to go as fast as humanly possible, Chevrolet gives it their all with the sleek, new Corvette Z06 GT3.R.

Racing around the track at a faster time around the track than previously recorded is an achievement with a 5.5L flat-plane crankshaft v8 engine coming from the production z06, more carbon, aerodynamics, and downforce the GT3.R takes high-performance to another level. Chevrolet combines the Zo6 street legal race car with their rich and successful history to create such a vehicle.

Exceeding ridiculous speeds means safety must be a top priority, which it is. A steel roll cage provides easier entry and exit, while an outer casing made of carbon fiber and Kevlar keeps the driver safe.

The GT3.R has been in testing for two years, furthermore, there will be another year of on-track development before customers can get their hands on it. Race strategy, engineers, data analysis, and post-event documentation, will be shared with Chevrolet’s customer team. Using all this data and information will help Chevrolet meet and surpass customer expectations, which in effect will continue to add to Chevrolet’s rich history in racing and customer cars.

Predecessors for Chevrolet racing have won a total of 122 races around the world. The predecessor of the Z06 GT3.R has won 15 races. Chevrolet doesn’t plan on slowing down. With a vehicle like the GT3.R, victories will skyrocket and keep the history of Chevrolet rich and ongoing.
