Chevrolet, along with Pratt &amp; Miller, built the car specifically for competition in endurance racing. In 1998 General Motors wanted a factory team to participate in grand touring races, specially at Le Mans, and they wanted to use a more production-based racing car. The C5-R debuted in 1999, and in total 11 chassis were built by Pratt &amp; Miller between 1998 and 2004, with engines built by Katech Engine Development. The car had a carbon fiber body around an unitary steel chassis propelled by a typically huge American 6980 cm\u00b3 V8 with 16 valves and aluminum block and heads, that produced 570 hp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.w-143.com\/+upload\/a-h\/chevrolet_c5-r_64_02.jpg\" alt=\"C5-R #64\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">I like rear diffusors like that &#8211; under the car, not coming out like the current HUGE ones.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This <strong>C5-R #64<\/strong> is chassis #C5R-10,  built in 2003 and raced until the end of 2008. At La Sarthe in 2004 the car was <a href=\"https:\/\/cdn-1.motorsport.com\/static\/img\/mgl\/100000\/160000\/162000\/162800\/162844\/s8\/lemans-24-hours-of-le-mans-2004-64-corvette-racing-corvette-c5-r-olivier-gavin-oliver-bere.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"1st in class (opens in a new tab)\">1st in class<\/a> (GTS), coming in 6th overall. The C5-R was a class winner at Le Mans three times, in 2001, 2002 and 2004. But in 2005 the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.w-143.com\/index.php\/chevrolet-corvette-c6-r-zr1-50-ixo\/\" target=\"_blank\">C6-R<\/a> took it&#8217;s place in endurance racing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.w-143.com\/+upload\/zgroup\/vettes_01.jpg\" alt=\"C5-R #64\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Unfortunately, you don&#8217;t see the yellow Corvettes at La Sarthe anymore. But fortunately, Ixo makes &#8217;em in scale.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The C5-R #64 is a quite nice model from Ixo, and one that I had to get. However it\u2019s an older mold. So compared to my C6 it\u2019s less sharp in terms of detail, especially with the paint job and wheels. Still, a nice model that looks pretty good even next to it\u2019s more refined younger sibling. In terms of bang-for-the-buck Ixo delivers a terrific value. Models like these Vettes are not expensive but are really good. To the point that I really don&#8217;t see why go after a Spark.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2003 Chevrolet Corvette C5-R Pilots: J. Magnussen, O. Beretta, O.
