This photo of a Corvette DP racecar was taken at the Grand Am Road Race held on August 10, 2013 at the Road America road track in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin.
The Corvette DP is a Gen3 Daytona Prototype racecar approved for use in the Grand American Road Racing Association (GARRA) in the Rolex Sports Car Series. The first Corvette DP racecar was approved in 2012 with a 5.0 L V8 engine with 500 hp capable of reaching a top speed of 190 mph.
GARRA regulates the number of chassis that are approved for use in series races. The Corvette DP and Riley MxXXVI were approved in 2012 as Gen3 cars. Gen2 cars can also be upgraded to meet the Gen3 standards.
