Chevrolet Corvette C6.R

The Chevrolet Corvette C6-R is a grand tourer racing car built by Pratt Miller and Chevrolet for competition in endurance racing. It is a replacement for the Corvette C5-R racing car, applying the body style of the new C6 generation Chevrolet Corvette as well as improvements to increase the speed and reliability on the track. Since its debut in 2005, it has continued on from the previous dominance of the C5-R in its racing class with multiple American Le Mans Series championships and race wins in the Le Mans SeriesFIA GT Championship, and 24 Hours of Le Mans

The GT1 version which has 590 HP, carbon-ceramic brakes, and aggressive aerodynamics.
 
At a market this weekend I found the Jada, BIGTIME Muscle Track #172, 2005 Corvette C6-R Number 4 as I saw that year in the Road Atlanta ALMS race.
Here it is in its package, about 1/60 scale. I'm keeping it packaged for now.

BINGO David!    ...and that's the internet problem with JADA; they produce nice stuff, but they're inconsistent with their scaling.  1/60 here, 1/65, there, 1/63 today, 1/59 tomorrow...    😫 😣 😫
