It’s only been about 15 years since Team Chevy formed Corvette Racing with the intention of sticking it to Dodge and Porsche not only in IMSA racing, but in European events such as the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The team is now a mainstay in touring car racing and the Le Mans grid would be missing something if the yellow Corvettes didn’t show up, a testament to how far they’ve come in such a short time.
Corvette Racing’s current race series, the TUDOR United Sportscar Championship, recently reflected on 15 years of Corvette Racing history with a list of five facts you might not have known about the team. Some of you racing diehards will already know a few of these, so if you have any other little known facts about Chevy’s factory racing team, feel free to share them in the comments below.
