What If Corvette Racing Ran A Le Mans Prototype?
What If Corvette Racing Ran A Le Mans Prototype?-May 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:41

Since Formula One has become a bit stale and stifled by regulations, the World Endurance Championship has emerged as a much more interesting “anything goes” sort of racing series. This leads to bonkers entries like the front-wheel drive . But if Corvette Racing ran an LMP1 prototype, what would it look like?

According to 3D artist Oriol Folch, this. It’s something I could get behind.

Folch sent us the designs from his latest project, an imaginary Corvette LMP1 racer. While Corvette Racing already runs the exceptionally badass and Americatacular in the WEC’s grand tourer classes, they don’t have an insane prototype.

If they did, I’d hope it looks something like this. It’s definitely closer to what Nissan is doing than the Audi, Toyota or Porsche prototypes, but unlike Nissan’s effort, I highly doubt a Corvette would send power to the front wheels. That’s just sacrilegious.

What do you think? If you’re a fan, check out more over at .

Tasting Notes: #44 Magnus Racing Porsche 911
Porsche 911 GT America: Smells like vinyl and automotive cleaner. Taste is faint, but revolting. Tastes primarily like old socks, with hints of rubber and grit in the mix. Has a numbing effect on the tongue once done. The varmint has been entirely cleaned up now, so it does taste...
