GM didn’t enter into Corvette racing until 1998, with the introduction of the new C-5 version. What better way to enter the grueling “24 Hours of LeMans” endurance race than with the fastest production car that GM builds. This model replicates the 50th anniversary version which finished second in class and won the “Manufacturer’s Championship” title at year’s end in 2003.

For the modeler: Although this style of automobile is not exactly my “cup-of-tea”, I actually had a blast building it nonetheless. The assembly process was uneventful for the most part, and any issues I did encounter were minor and easily resolved without a major catastrophe occurring. Fit and finish on this kit was superb, and flash was a non-issue since there really wasn’t any. I rate this kit a solid 4 1/2 stars out of a possible 5. Although it’s not for the beginner, an intermediate modeler (such as myself) can complete the kit without issue, and the advanced modeler would have an absolute field day customizing it to his/her particular taste. Would I build this kit again? If LeMans racers such as this were my thing, definitely! After I finished it, I kept looking at it on my workbench and imagining myself in the cockpit…racing over 200mph on the curves and straightaways, yet maintaining a glue-like traction to the roadway. Yee-HAH!
