2022 Corvette C8 in Hypersonic Grey ( #22107):
In 2022 GM produced a limited Heritage Edition Corvette C8 to celebrate winning the IMSA GTLM Manufacturer’s Championship in its very first year of competition. The Hypersonic Grey paint and vivid yellow striping are taken directly from the race livery of the #4 C8.R race car.

2022 Corvette C8 in Gulf Livery ( #22108):
This 2022 Corvette C8 is an electrifying custom release that blends exotic styling with the unmistakable Gulf heritage. Finished in vivid riptide blue and accented by silver five-spoke wheels, it delivers a bold, race-inspired look that feels every bit as special as it appears. Customized by The Lab in New York, this Gulf-liveried edition is a rare, display-worthy piece that offers collectors and enthusiasts a compelling blend of style, exclusivity, and attitude.

Both slot cars are mounted on the Mega G+ 1.7” long wheelbase chassis. The Mega-G+ is easily the lightest chassis you can buy. Add that to the lowest center of gravity and you get a car that is fast and nimble. Most realistic. Best Performance. Fun to drive. What a combination!
