Corvette C6-R

Wikipedia says:

The Chevrolet Corvette C6.R is a grand tourer racing car built by Pratt Miller and Chevrolet for competition in endurance racing. It is a replacement for the Corvette C5-R racing car, applying the body style of the new C6 generation Chevrolet Corvette as well as improvements to increase the speed and reliability on the track. Since its debut in 2005, it has continued on from the previous dominance of the C5-R in its racing class with multiple American Le Mans Series championships and race wins in the Le Mans Series, FIA GT Championship, and 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Model wise Jada and BBurago have made 1/24 scale diecast and Braha made a plastic model without interior.

As typical for Jada models the wheels are oversized and too bright so I removed the bodies and sprayed the wheels with a darker metallic color.

Though the photo looks darker than it should I am much more comfortable with the wheels.

Overall, they are a good addition to my racing Corvette collection.
