Check out the new Pre-Production Corvette GT1 Championship Edition

History does repeat itself when it comes to the Corvette GT1 racing program! This revolutionary vehicle has claimed 70 victories and eight championship titles in the American Le Mans Series (ALMS). In honor of its past ALMS successes, Chevrolet is producing a limited quantity of 600 “GT1 Championship” Edition C6 Corvettes. This Vette includes C6.R-inspired graphics featuring Corvette Racing 'Jake,' Championships, and driver flags; ZR1-style body color, full width spoiler and chrome wheels; and a special engine cover with carbon pattern and yellow Corvette lettering. This package is available in the Coupe 4LT, Convertible 4LY, or Z06 3LZ in your choice of Black or Velocity Yellow paint.

GreenLight is joining in on this commemorative occasion by offering a 1:24 scale replica of the GT1 Championship Edition Corvette. This stunning die-cast replica features:
• 100% die-cast metal body
• Window box packaging
• Keyhole cut-out displaying sequentially numbered chassis
• New 10-spoke “Spider” wheels
• Opening hood, doors, and trunk
• Working steering
• Authentic paint scheme including GT1 emblems on seats, instrument panel, and center armrest

The same schemes will be available in 1:64 scales as well, including single clamshell items and a Factory 2-Packs Series 4 offering. The 1:24 and 1:64 models will be available in August 2009. Quantities won’t last long so be sure to purchase yours today!

Be sure to ask your normal hobby or Corvette memorabilia store about these, they should be able to help you out. If one of them isn't carrying the item let us know.

Thanks,
