Extraordinary Corvettes at Simeone Automotive Museum -- November 2012

The Simeone Automotive Museum's 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport was joined by a 2010 Corvette C6-R and a 2013 Corvette 427 Convertible at a special "Corvette Racing Legends" event held on Nov. 16 & 17, 2012. The newer models were brought to the Philadelphia museum for the occasion by the Corvette Racing Team.

The guest speaker was Doug Fehan, the head of Chevrolet's Corvette Racing Program, which won the 2012 American Le Mans Series Championship, its ninth ALMS title in the GT class since 2001. Joining the discussion for the benefit of dozens of auto enthusiasts were Fred Simeone and Grand-Am Corvette driver David Donohue.
