What happens when you race this mid-engine masterpiece? You win. The C8.R race car did just that, bringing home back-to-back IMSA GTLM manufacturer championships. And now, that same engine comes to the streets with the all-new Corvette Z06. It’s purpose-built to dominate the track and boasts the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 in production, pumping out even more horsepower than the race car.
A testament to unrelenting craftsmanship, the hand-built LT6 5.5L engine features an all-new flat-plane crankshaft that gives it a signature growl. Strike fear in your competition as it hits a redline of 8600 rpm – 2000 rpm higher than Stingray. And with a balanced mid-engine design, more of its impressive power is directed to the rear wheels where it matters most.
