Corvette Racing to Defend American Le Mans Series Championships in 2007

America's premier production sports car team intends to return to the American Le Mans Series in 2007 to defend its GT1 manufacturers, team and drivers championships.

Corvette Racing also plans to race for its sixth GT1 class title in seven years at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. "The Corvette C6.R race program continues Chevrolet's tradition of racing production-based vehicles to improve the breed," said GM Racing director Mark Kent. "The continuous exchange of information and the constant transfer of technology between the racing and production programs ensure that lessons learned on the track benefit every Corvette on the highway."

Corvette Racing will test in February in preparation for the season-opening Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring, on March 17, 2007. www.corvetteracing.com
