      I just went to Sebring for the first time in my life, it was awesome. I always wanted to go but didn't have anyone to go with until this year. I wish I could have been there in the early 2000s when I was a kid!

    I'll never forget seeing these cars rip around PIR in 2006. I was just a small kid and went with my dad to ALMS the last year it ever came to PIR. The noise and rumble that these beasts made at the chicane were unreal--ear-piercing, even with hearing protection in.

    I’ve been a race fan for 41 years & in that time no race car regardless of which racing series F1, WEC, Indycar or whatever put such a smile on my face like a Corvette did. I first heard this magnificent car at Le Mans in 2012 & it was love for me. I really didn’t care if it was the quickest car or not the noise it made or as I called it “Corvette Thunder” just did it for me.

      Same, I was 8 when this car was kicking ass. The C5.R is the car that made me love racing when it won GTS at Mosport, the C6.R is the first car that I was able to follow the whole span of competition. The Audi R8 is worth mentioning too because it won overall at the same Mosport race.

      Of all time? The 911 nameplate has won so many races, class wins, and championship that it's the hardest car to collect the data. It's the most race successful production car... You mentioned one model of a Corvette right? So to be fair the early 70s RSRs, 935, and 935 k3 was more dominative then the C6.R. The McLaren GTRs were very dominant as well..I'm sure I'm missing more
