It was good while it lasted.

Hi Matt, I think corvette racing are already testing the new turbo corvette. This years Le Mans cars had 2 different engine set ups. The 63 car had the usual 5.5 litre normally aspirated v8. The 64 car had a 3.9 litre turbo v8 set up. Interestingly the 64 car retired with cooling problems. The current zo6 also has cooling problems... mmmm. Work in progress.

Interesting that you think they ran a 3.9L V8 Turbo set up.......on what grounds are you basing this?

Some good old-fashioned ground-shaking rumble from the three Corvettes running at Goodwood Revival today. They may not be the quickest but what a sound!
