No win again sadly for the Vettes, but boy oh boy they keep sounding better and better each time they drive by! It's the only car of which everyone agrees that it sounds awesome. It's also the only one were you don't have to guess which car it is that's approaching!

You guys should get an award just for how that thing sounds!

Hasn't Katech always powered the factory cars since the C5R ALMS program started?
