Technically it's R18 TDI>R18 ultra>R18 e-tron quattro>R18 e-tron quattro. So actually nothing is solved anyways.

It's been policy since 2012 to keep names static to be like street cars anyways though, so you're pretty much forced to either use model years or chassis codes if you know them like street cars. They've also gone through at least four different tub designs anyways I think。

Still four vettes at LM next year is good! Looking forward to the GTE battles and the noise.

Interesting seeing Whelen involvement just as the garage door closes.

'Shakes fist at laptop' ignorance is bliss...

Shame no Larbre in PRO but it sounds like two cars in AM so that lessens the pain. Now only if they could lure away Lamy from AMR and reunite him with Gardel...I really need to stop living in the past

GM had some inter brand celebrations. Thankfully, they put the C7.R on center, not the DP.

MaskedRacer User has been fined for unsportsmanlike behaviour!
Two darn enduro races in a row now Corvette just teases everybody and then turns up the whick in the last 2 hours and runs away from the rest of the pack. I bet they get BoP'ed by IMSA and don't win a race for the rest of 2016 now. But they won't mind because they got the 36 hours of Florida. Ultimately that and Le Mans matters to them most.

Callaway design and build beautiful renditions of the Corvette. Glad to see them still producing and competing.

I would think not, as it is more than likely a new chassis. Meaning it is probably built to the new 2016 spec as it is a Werks back up chassis and therefore not eligible to run in GTE-AM.

Two things:

1) If Larbre is using its 2015 chassis and AAI a former factory chassis, what happened to the other factory chassis?

2) As there's a spare chassis for the factory team, might we see a WEC entry at COTA with that third chassis?

1) It was updated to the new 2016 Spec.

2) Yet to be determined.
