Overall I'd say the C7R was a beast and the 2015 season by far proved it. Look forward to the next chapter of Corvette Racing!

Yeah, it did seem like the deck was stacked against them this year. Hopefully the C8R will not have those problems.

Probably sent to Detroit and put in GM's collection, and come out only for special events. I believe one each of the C5/6Rs were both there on display at Road Atlanta this weekend.
