One of the main events of this year’s Corvettes at Carlisle show was the 25th anniversary celebration of the 1996 Grand Sport Corvettes. With just 1,000 units made that year, the Admiral Blue and white “skunks” were the perfect sendoff for Corvette’s 4th generation.

During our visit last weekend to Corvettes at Carlisle, we finally got to see for ourselves the 60th Anniversary Cunningham C8 Corvette special edition that was created to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Briggs Cunningham’s win at Le Mans and it totally exceeded our expectations! Only 60 of these 600-hp Cunningham C8s will be built and this is number 33 of the run that is based on the number 3 1960 Corvette that was the first Corvette to win the 24-hour race!

This is a very cool C8 Corvette you can win by making a donation to the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation and CorvetteBlogger readers can get 30% BONUS ENTRIES on ticket packages starting at $25.
