While the brand new 2014 Corvette Stingray has yet to arrive in showrooms, with deliveries scheduled to commence in September, General Motors has already introduced the racing version of the C7 Vette at the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion earlier this month.
But the track-prepped machine was wearing enough camouflage to hide most of the details and Chevy didn’t bother to release more than just two photos on their Facebook page. However, a video of C7.R Corvette lapping the Laguna Seca track that was uploaded on YouTube recently show the race car in it’s full dynamic glory with plenty of V8 growling.
