C8 Corvette Z51 Up for Grabs in Sprint Car HOF Raffle

Help keep sprint car racing alive and nab a shot at winning a mid-engine 2020 C8 Corvette Z51 for as little as $25.

There’s no denying the fact that the all-new, mid-engine C8 Corvette is the hottest car of the last decade. Or maybe multiple decades. But that’s what happens when you build a car that couples incredible performance with a reasonable price tag. Regardless, we’re penny pinchers, which means that we’d rather pay less than even the Corvette’s base price of just under $60k. And now, thanks to the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame and Museum, we can take a chance at bringing home a 2020 Corvette for as little as $25.

That small dollar amount will nab you four tickets in this raffle, where a brand spankin’ new Corvette with the Z51 package is the main prize. Which means that this is no base car. In fact, it’s equipped with loads of goodies including an electronically controlled limited-slip differential with a shorter final-drive ratio, Brembo brakes, a performance exhaust, heavy-duty cooling system, and Michelin Pilot Sport 4S summer tires. Pretty much exactly how we’d spec our new ‘Vette, honestly. The car even comes finished in a blazing Torch Red hue.

That’s certainly worth dropping a few bucks on, just to take a chance at glory. But even if you don’t win, your hard-earned dough will be going to a great cause. The National Sprint Car Hall of Fame and Museum is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization dedicated to preserving the history of sprint car racing, as well as solidifying its future. Chances are, you’ve seen at least one sprint car race in your life. Heck, it may have even helped fuel your automotive passion from a young age.

Those little factoids alone make this raffle well worth participating in. And maybe, just maybe, your contribution will help a member of today’s youth catch the auto bug, too. So be sure and head over here to snag your tickets. The raffle runs through August 15 of next year, at which time one lucky winner will be chosen. And who knows, maybe it’ll be you parking that shiny new Corvette in your garage next summer!
