CORVETTE RACING AT MID-OHIO: Ready to Charge… Rain or Shine
Two Chevrolet Corvettes to start from third and fourth rows

LEXINGTON, Ohio (May 5, 2018) – With an eye toward a questionable raceday forecast, Corvette Racing will head into the Acura Sports Car Challenge at Mid-Ohio prepared for both a dry and wet race. The two Chevrolet Corvette C7.Rs will start from the third and fourth rows of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship’s GT Le Mans (GTLM) field.

The team’s task of winning for the ninth time at Mid-Ohio is not an impossible one. Corvette Racing won in its last appearance at the 2.25-mile, 13-turn circuit in 2012 with Oliver Gavin and Tommy Milner coming from sixth place to do it.

KYLE LARSON, NO. 42 DC SOLAR CAMARO ZL1 – Pole Winner
DID YOU GET EVERYTHING YOU HAD HOPED FOR THERE? DID YOU LEAVE ANYTHING OUT THERE?
“I felt like I nailed that lap pretty good. Everything from coming to the green to (Turns) 1 and 2 were really good. (Turns) 3 and 4 I maybe left a little bit out there. I got in there a little hot and up the track. I planned on kind of moving up the race track each round. The first round caught me of guard. I was really loose getting in, but they made great adjustments on the DC Solar Chevy throughout the next two rounds. The second round we were probably a little too tight, but they kind of found the happy medium there for the final round. So, I’m happy about that. We’ve always qualified good here. I had yet to get a pole. I’ve raced well here but have yet to get a win. Maybe we’ll get both out of the way this weekend.” Continue reading Chevy Racing–NASCAR–Dover–Kyle Larson →

YOU’RE COMING INTO THE WEEKEND WITH A LITTLE BIT OF MOMENTUM. YOU’VE GOT THREE TOP 12’S IN YOUR LAST THREE STARTS AND THIS IS OBVIOUSLY ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE RACE TRACKS. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO COME INTO DOVER KNOWING YOU HAVE SOME MOMENTUM AND IT’S AN OPPORTUNITY RACE TRACK FOR YOU AND YOUR TEAM?
“I can relax a little bit more coming to this race track. With it being my best track and the love I have for this place, I’m always excited to come, but trying to get the No. 48 car back into Victory Lane, I can take a little pressure of myself here knowing that the rhythm-style and the way you drive this track and the set-up for the car. We’ll get it close, and history shows that. Hopefully we get it perfect and we can have the day that we really want to have and get back to Victory Lane. But it does take a little pressure off me knowing that this is my best track and knowing that this is my favorite track.” Continue reading Chevy Racing–NASCAR–Dover–Jimmie Johnson →
