Corvette Racing knew they had their work cut out for them over the Super Sebring weekend when they signed on to race the No.63 C7.R in the WEC’s 1,000 Miles of Sebring in addition to its regular IMSA two-car entries in the grueling Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring.
The team’s PR machine always shares a series of stats prior to the races which are called “By the Numbers”. But after 20 hours of racing at Super Sebring, the team put out this tweet showing the miles they traveled over the two events:
✅ 3,523.08 miles
— Corvette Racing (@CorvetteRacing) March 19, 2019
✅ 942 laps
✅ Three Corvettes
✅ Two races
✅ One team
That's what we call a #SuperSebring… #Corvette #C7R #Z06 pic.twitter.com/0tKl5DHqTH
These are definitely not “highway” miles as 3,500+ miles over the concrete bumps of Sebring International Raceway probably feels double that amount at the end of the weekend.
And speaking of stats, John Dagys’ post-Sebring notebook shares the total miles driven by the No. 3 squad: Garcia, Magnussen, and Rockenfeller combined to complete 621 laps for 2,322.54 miles over the course of the weekend between the Nos. 3 and 63 Corvettes.
Let’s give our Corvette Racing team a round of applause for a job well done this weekend!
