When the Chevrolet Corvette was launched in 1953, racing was already a part of its DNA.  Road racing and most popular endurance races, such as "24 Heures du Mans", are still Corvette's natural environment today. In 2011, the Corvette racing team will return to France. Since 2001, the Corvette racing team clocked-up six victories in the GTS/GT1 class in Le Mans. The current C6 R race cars are based off the Corvette ZR1 supercar, which is part of the Corvette line-up.
