[VIDEO] C8 Corvette Z06 GT3R Undisguised In This Pratt & Miller Motorsports Promotional Video


We’ve got some new the new C8 Corvette Z06 GT3R race car thanks to this promotional video that is currently running on the Pratt & Miller website. We were tipped the inclusion of the GT3R thanks to “switchlanez” at the MidEngineCorvetteForum.com who shared that it was presently embedded on Pratt & Miller’s Motorsports Page.

That video is being hosted by Vimeo, so after finding that, we are able to embed it below. We slowed down the “good parts” which show the race engineers working in a wind tunnel with the GT3R race car. Those shots show the car wearing a black composite body and we can see a lot of the C8.Rs DNA in the body which includes the widebody design with an aggressive aero package with the high rear wing, front splitter, and dive planes. We are also able to make out how the rear brakes have their own dedicated cooling inlets under the side intakes.

At the end of the video, we get one more look at the GT3R as it’s being tested on the track.


Here are the relevant screenshots from the video showing the Z06 GT3R being worked on in the wind tunnel. You can click the photos to embiggen:

We got our first hard look at the Z06 GTR3 as it was working out last month during a private track event at Sebring. The Z06 GT3R is closer to the stock C8 Z06 than the C8.R was, and all three share the DOHC 5.5L flat-plane crank V8 engine for power. Development is expected to continue through the summer with the first customers receiving their race cars later this year.

  1. A brief view for sure, but The Roar is in 2 weeks… Was going to poke fun at the use of “embiggen” until learning it was first used in 1884 in the UK. 🙂

  2. Looks really sinister in all black! 😱 Curious what the Price Tag will be on this when available, while I’m asking kind of dumb questions, wonder what the Fuel Milage is? 🤣😂🤣😂

  3. Can’t wait for the guys to start kicking some German and Italian ass. Looks killer.
