DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Jan. 27, 2024) – The new Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R was firmly in contention in the GT Daytona (GTD) PRO class after the first quarter of the Rolex 24 At Daytona – the opening race of this year’s IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship.
Disclaimer: Doctors have reported that after driving a Corvette even once will improve your health and well-being for the duration of the event, and the more you drive a Corvette, the better off you will be. Side effects include having a positive outlook, increased blood flow to the brain, and the health benefits from increased physical activity due to detailing your new ride. Your wife or significant other will also notice a difference in your sex life, and it’s not uncommon for the ladies to say they find you more attractive due to your Corvette ownership. However, having too many Corvettes can lead to additional stress due to parking and the indecision of which car to drive on a daily basis, so moderate your ownership experience whenever possible.

To celebrate the end of the Corvette’s longest-running generation and entice buyers waiting for the C4s, Chevrolet offered the very unique 1982 Collector Edition.
More than 40 years later, we think it’s one of the best-looking and classiest special edition Corvettes ever built, and now someone may have an opportunity to pick up one of these classic C3s for a song during a no-reserve auction on eBay out of the Miami, Florida area that is slated to close Sunday night.

![[POLL] Which of New 2025 Cadillac Blackwing Colors Would You Like to See on the C8 Corvette?](https://www.corvetteblogger.com/images/content/2024/012624_4b.jpg)
If you’re planning to attend the Rolex 24 at Daytona this weekend, be sure to make some time to admire the Safety Car. Our favorite non-Corvette, the LT4-motivated Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing, is getting a refresh for 2025, and Daytona is your first chance to see its facelift in the metal – or composites, as it were.
The beloved 668-horse RWD powertrain goes untouched as the newly announced upgrade focuses on the skin and brings the interior cluster in line with the rest of Cadillac’s lineup. Inside, the gauges and center screens have been merged into a single 33-inch panel, like you’ll find in the Escalade. Upfront, you’ll notice that the daylight running light “blades” now go unbroken from top to bottom, fixing one of the most widely held design grievances with the 2022-24 cars. Other than the illuminated treatment, Cadillac designers’ primary focal point in the 2025 5-V Blackwing is the “Mondrian pattern” etched into their creation’s mug. For readers that share a lack of culture with their author, said pattern and its name are cribbed from a 19th-century Dutch painter, which helps us nicely transition to the part of the 2025 Blackwing press release that made our collective ears perk up over here in Corvette Land.
Huge GTD car count, first race for Z06 GT3.R adds to anticipation of this year’s event
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Jan. 24, 2024) – There is no discounting the challenges that Corvette Racing teams and drivers will face in this weekend’s Rolex 24 At Daytona. For many reasons, this year’s race looks to be one of the most thrilling and action-packed thanks to a full field of prototypes and GT cars – with Corvettes well-represented in the latter.

This is a pretty cool video that’s a bit different than most of the detailing videos I usually see which consists of barn finds and first washes. This custom 1969 Corvette Coupe was on display at the Cavalcade of Customs in Cincinnati, Ohio earlier this month and it’s the main character in this story.
