| 2 days of private testing for the 2010 edition of Corvette Racing just concluded @ Sebring.
Reports from godug say, except for the challenge of 35mph headwinds which made the throttle-heavy very-fast Turn 1 an exercise in blended skill / prayer, everything went according to plan.
So smooth / flawless were the 2 new GT2’s that - “We came close to running out of fuel before we ran out of time.” - was the way godug explained that a trouble-free test allowed the team to pound down the miles.
Emmanuel Collard got his 1st Corvette Racing experience after years pushing around Porsches. “Simply awesome!” was his initial feedback on his new ride.
The team ran the race-calibrated 5.5L motor, sourced from within GM Powertrain for 2010, for the 1st time and all was ‘good to go’. Great news for Team GM.
Maybe the new livery should carry the GM battle cry, ‘May the Best Car Win!’
