KENNOL through its official Racing Team unveils a wonderful new vehicle for its 2023 racing season: the roaring Corvette Z06.R GT3

LEGEND. PERFORMANCE. ENDURANCE.


KENNOL through its official Racing Team shows up a wonderful vehicle for its 2023 racing season. The roaring Corvette Z06.R GT3 lands on track really soon, after a last test this week, and with a brand new KENNOL livery.



LEGEND

KENNOL had already unveiled, last September, on the legendary Hockenheimring circuit in Germany, a very rare Corvette C7 GT3-R in its colors. One of the 7 existing chassis in the world. Here is the French brand driving the point home, by adding a legendary big sister, the Corvette Z06.R GT3 with a brand new team livery!

This passion for the US manufacturer necessarily echoes the historic successes of KENNOL on American territory: 24h of Daytona, 12h of Sebring, Petit Le Mans, multiple American Le Mans Series champions, etc. But it’s above all the image of a know-how, widely recognized in racing competition, which is here associated with the factory team of the French manufacturer of mechanical lubricants and specific fluids, the KENNOL Racing Team.



PERFORMANCE

This 6th generation of Corvette in racing marked the spirits as soon as it was released in 2005. And since then, it has left its mark with victories, in particular by flying over certain championships, and winning several titles in FIA GT3, ADAC GT Masters, etc.

The 7.0L V8 engine originally develops more than 560hp. It is installed in chassis n°2, as confirmed by Callaway Competition, German manufacturer of the most radical versions of Corvette. The particularity of its dry sump lubrication gives pride of place to the qualities of its preferred engine oil, the KENNOL ULTIMA 10W-60 used to optimize its performance on the track.



ENDURANCE

Its steel frame provides the whole with unfailing rigidity, and allows the running gear to take this aircraft from 0 to 200km/h in less than 10 seconds.

But it is now its longevity at a very high level that impresses. And the KENNOL Racing Team will please to French and European fans by aligning the vehicle on several programs, national and international, for the 2023 season, such as the FFSA Circuits French Cup.



The Corvette will probably even go through some historic dates at Spa-Francorchamps (Belgium) and Mugello (Italy) to validate his entry ticket for Le Mans Classique, at the start of summer. It is therefore an exceptional season in sight for the roaring American, thus crystallizing the emblematic pillars of the brand of Aftermarket professionals: performance, passion, and track legacy.
