| Another C6R will enter the FIA-GT in July. Entered by DKR Engineering, under the banner of Sangari Team Brazil, this Corvette will have an all-Brazilian line up, representing their Brazilian-sourced sponsorship. Former Arrows F1 driver - Enrique Bernoldi will partner with former F3 / Formula Nippon driver - Roberto Streit.
The team will debut @ the Spa24 [Really? Well, that’s 1 way to get acclimated. Just cannonball into the DEEP end of the pool! But, it will be fine as 'fender Jake' will guide and protect them].
So, the Corvette car / team count increases in Europe.
In the US, the pro racing banner for Corvette is carried, of course, by Pratt + Miller and the mighty / factory Corvette Racing team. Next in line seems to be the Team Sahlen Grand-Am cars. Plus, a few Corvettes are seen in the re-birthed Muscle Milk Trans-Am, as evidenced by this in-car video and the series photo gallery.
But, is that it in the US / Canada / Mexico? So, BBV fans, here is your ‘homework assignment’ - If there are more North American professional-racing Corvette teams out there, please advise us all. Thanks.
PS- We love / recognize the huge number of grass-roots / amateur teams out there building / racing Corvettes. You are the foundation / strength of Corvette passion and give Corvette racing great local visability. |
