Yup she moving but the C5-7R’s are gonna be missed! The vette is moving with the times it seems. Probably gonna piss off a lot of older heads, I’ll reserve judgment until the production car is finally revealed. Whenever that is.

LOL, C8R has a v6.. AHAHAHHAHAHAHA Vette guys are going to have a heart attack.
Damn that sucks :(

The C7R was the best sounding car at the track when IMSA was in Laguna Seca.

First the Ford GT and now the C8.R. The times they are a changing!

Sounds pretty good actually. Just messes with your brain, though.

They can keep the race car at V6 TT but production car should remain an 8. This sounds familiar don’t it? Lol

Sounds like a small displacement FPC V8 to me. Very Ferrari sounding.


Pick your poison.

A lot of people seem to feel that way too. Everything is leaked but nobody has said diddly about the engine. Although all sorts of rumors are about with TT V8’s.

That's not a 6 cylinder. It's still a V8. It sounds just like the 720S. Speaking of which, if this C8.R is any indication, it appears the mid engine ZR1 will be going after McLaren's neck.
