2016 Corvette Z06 C7.R Edition joins Corvette Racing weekend at the Simeone Museum
Our Corvette Racing weekend on October 23-24 keeps getting better and better. We’ll have a brand new 2016 Corvette Z06 C7.R Edition on display, courtesy of a friend of the Museum. The car is currently in production at the Corvette plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky and will be joining us fresh off the assembly line. This special edition car features the Z06 package with the 650-hp engine, Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes, a Performance Data Recorder, adjustable aerodynamic bodywork, and cosmetic upgrades. Only 500 copies of this car were produced and they are all spoken for, having quickly sold out. This street-legal monster is the closest thing you can get to a Le Mans winning thoroughbred race car.

Our Corvette Racing weekend on October 23-24 keeps getting better and better. Today we received 2 boxes loaded with Corvette Racing goodies which Doug Fehan and Corvette Racing were generous enough to donate for our Friday dinner attendees and Saturday fundraiser auction.
For the Friday night dinner attendees, we will be giving away a special poster commemorating the 2015 Le Mans win. Only 100 copies were made and these were never available to the public, so this is definitely a rare item. It is only available with the purchase of a Friday dinner ticket.
For the Saturday auction, we have a great selection of Corvette Racing race-used memorabilia and parts, as well as official team-issued merchandise. We have some great items and a little something for Corvette Racing fans no matter your budget. The proceeds from the auction will benefit the Simeone Foundation Automotive Museum. We’ll also have a great free giveaway item – Doug Fehan and Tommy Milner will be on hand to sign autographs on official Corvette Racing hero cards.
Check out these great items:
