Z06 wins for me. It's another classic case of the oldest car being the most legendary.

 

[MisterWaffles]

Callaway Corvette GT2, not mainstream enough so it gets my vote for being my obscure favourite, I also like early 00's to late 90's gt racing the best.

 

[Cano]

L88. Just look at that thing.

 

[AnthonyD1993]

L88. Just look at that thing.

This. The cars had some of the greatest liveries of any of the Corvette race cars, too, by a mile.

 

[YSSMAN]

You're missing a pretty important Corvette on the list. Similar engine design to the C7.R, dominated prototype class in IMSA for the last couple of seasons.

 

[CarBastard]

I feel offended by this glaring omission and demand that it's righted right away!

C'm on man!? How could've you missed the Greenwood?

 

[JR98]

I'm torn between the L88 and the Pratt & Miller racing Vettes

L88 is such an incredible car for it's time period and spawned what is possibly one of the craziest Corvette's ever made, the ZR1 L88 427, while the Pratt & Miller Vette's (C5-R-C7.R) have been incredibly dominant in endurance racing for the past 16 years, winning their class in several ALMS/TUSCC events and the 24 Hours of LeMans. They've also showed some success across Europe in Callaway built machines.

I'll go with the C6.R, mainly because of it's amazing battles with the Aston Martin DBR9 at Le Mans and it's amazing performances in the US and at Le Mans

 

[Heldenzeit]

I love every one of these, but the successes of the C5.R sealed it for me.

 

[SPhilli911]

I don't remember if it was the C5R or the C6R I saw racing the first time I watched an ALMS race at Lime Rock Park, but one thing I do remember is how amazing the Corvettes sounded. I voted for the C6R.

 

[FT-1]

C6.R because Most Wanted 2005.

 

[Casey]

Would have voted for the Greenwood if it was a choice in the poll.

Went with the C5-R.

 

[LivingWithGames]

Z06 easily, Can't hold back on the C2. Been my top fave 'vette of all time. C5R was a close second, if was on a better livery ofcourse, that one isn't as memorable.

 

[Mike458]

GTP for me. Something about it just seems a bit murderous...

 

[TheCracker]

I find your lack of Greenwood disappointing.

 

[Aerocoupe]

Went with the GTO, because I'm a sucker for those crazy Camel GT cars.

C6-R GT1 for me as well, grew up watching it in alms, sounds amazing, and had great battles with the DBR9s as you said, which, if you can't tell, is my favorite racecar ever.
