As the C7.R era comes to a close, Corvette Racing offered a glimpse of the future with a demonstration lap Saturday morning before the start of Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta.
Just a quick note, we’ll be updating this post throughout the day and tomorrow with new videos or other posts that show up on youtube or social media.
As the driver with most testing experience with the car, US-based driver Tommy Milner is behind the wheel of the Silver and Yellow No.4 C8.R as Oliver Gavin was tagged to be the starting C7.R driver for the team.
Here’s a round-up of various photos and videos posted to social media:

Good luck in the 2020 race season,kick some ASS will yah.
I love the look of the C8.R. It is my favorite of the racer versions. If looks could win then the C-8 is already a winner. Now go out there and tear up that track and win!! I’ll be cheering you on to victory!
