Free Touring Laps Now Offered with R8C Delivery
​

While you can't drive your newly delivered Corvette on track until you've accrued the break-in miles, we have an alternative for our R8C customers.. drive one of OUR Corvettes on track! New for the 2018 model year we are offering R8C customers the chance to take some touring laps at the NCM Motorsports Park as part of their delivery. The laps in our Corvette have a $199 value and are offered based on weather, track and car availability.
