    Get ready!
    The all new Callaway Cars Inc Corvette C7 GT3-R will be released for RaceRoom next week.

    The car builds on the famous Corvette Z06.R GT3 and comes with once again more performance and aerodynamics. This astonishing racing car was developed by the company Callaway Competition based in Leingarten (Heilbronn, Germany), and has a 6.2-liter V-8 under its hood, producing up to 600 HP, making it the quickest race-spec C7 developed as of yet.

    Many thanks to the S3 Team.
    I'm sure it will be a perfect implementation of the corvette.

    To the critics in this forum:
    Now the first new GT3 model will be available soon.
    The constant complaints have been so unnecessary.

    Great video @Georg Ortner and great sound @Anthony Monteil
    Can‘t wait to try that car... I hope that some will forget that they had to wait a long time for it as soon they can give it a try and we can go back to normal...

    Nice to drive, but a little bit disappointed from the sound. Is she really so quiet inside?

    Thanks for posting the video bearr.

    And yes, The Callaway C7 GT3R is relatively quiet irl, not the loud US dragster V8 sound we would imagine.

    For your information, we recorded the cockpit sound of this car in Sachsenring, 2 months ago ;)

    Another video :

    hehe - found your Callaway C7 GT3R-Watchlist with that Video in youtube yesterday as I was searching for an onboard-recording of the Callaway Vette. Unfortunately such a recording seems very rare.

    I like the onboard-sound. As the engine is the same that was used in the Callaway Corvette Z06R there are a few things hearable that both have in common... the biggist difference on both cars is the exhaust. The Z06 has it's exhaust at the rear like the road-car, the C7 has quite big Sidepipes...

    Guys, you made a (very) little mistake on some Liverys of this beauty.
    You put the wrong Corvette logo on the front of the 2017 #77 Callaway Skin.
    Same mistake @ the 2016 Whelen Car (front & rear)

    In the game is the Corvette C6 Logo on the skins, but the Corvette C7 logo is a bit different and placed on the real cars.
    [​IMG] [​IMG]

    here you can see the differences

    Corvette C7:
    [​IMG]

    I know most of you would never have noticed, but that bothers me somehow XD

    And i wonder ingame the Chevrolet Corvette Z06.R GT3is branded
    as Corvette but the Callaway Corvette C7 GT3-R is branded as Chevrolet.
    Is that so wanted or a mistake?

    Sorry for my bad English :sweatsmile:

    Nice find, I passed it along to the devs, they'll take a look at it as soon as possible..

    Probably something to do with licensing but I'm sure @J-F Chardon could answer it better.

    Your English is fine =p
