24 Hours Of Daytona Corvette (Dale Earnhardt Jr.)
If there’s one thing about Dale Jr., he enjoys professional racing. It doesn’t matter what kind of racecar he is behind the wheel of. He just enjoys performing in front of a crowd and he participated in the 24 hours of the Daytona race with his father, the legendary Dale Earnhardt Sr., in 2001 (via NBC Sports).
After the race was done, the up-and-coming driver got the chance to keep the Corvette race car. This racecar was based on the C5 Corvette, with a few additions to make it more competitive on the track. The elongated body gave the car greater downforce and aerodynamics, and the engine was dramatically upgraded.
