Born and raised in Metro Detroit, associate editor Lucas Bell has spent his entire life surrounded by the automotive industry. He may daily drive an aging Mustang, but his Porsche 944 and NB Miata both take up most of his free time.
While the story of Corvette Racing as we know it came to an end following this year’s Petit Le Mans, the car that started it all was paid tribute over the weekend in Braselton, Georgia. The Corvette Racing C5-R was named a part of the inaugural class of the International Motor Sports Association Hall of Fame at the annual Night of Champions banquet outside of Road Atlanta.
Output in the 427 cubic-inch engine reached as high as 610 hp and 570 lb-ft of torque, backed by either a five-speed manual, a six-speed manual, or a six-speed sequential gearbox throughout its tenure. Only 11 examples of the car were built by Pratt Miller between 1998 and 2004, with a 12th chassis developed as a test mule for the C6.R. The C5-R was a monster of a performer on track.
