Chevrolet Corvette C5.R V8 Roar in action: OnBoard, Warm Up & Fly Bys!

- During a free practice day, ahead of the 2019 Dix Mille Tours du Castellet racing weekend by Peter Auto, I had the great chance to see, record and put an action camera inside a real endurance legend: the Corvette C5.R.
This one in particular is chassis C5R-002 and it was built at the very end of 1998, ready to be unleashed in the 1999 season, during which it was powered by a 6.0 V8 engine. In 2000 the engine was changed with a Katech LS1 427 7.0 engine mated to a Hewland 5-speed racing manual transmission.
Watch it in action around Circuit Paul Ricard, driven by Olivier and Xavier Galant, for a few brief sessions. The first on board footage was recorded with an external mic placed inside the cockpit but very near to the right exhaust, while the second one is just the audio recorded by the GoPro placed on the roll-bar.

The sound of the onboard downshifts is monstrous.
almost as raw as in Nascar
@@kingster3835 both jerico?
@@kingster3835 I would bet that there a similar trans
Sounds like battleship firing off a round! Brutal!!
@@pizzababbo holy fuck perfect description!!!!!!
Played way too much Gran Turismo to not be excited at the sight of this beast.
I know right!
True lol
But at the sound!
Played too much GTR2 with different sound mods, and though I know the sound in my dreams I still get excited - never gets tired of it :-)
stenovitz long live gtr2, ultimate sim to this day
it sounds like a shotgun when he changes to lower gear
I was thinking a 120kg rotweiler bark..
@@unknownunwanted1445 like a battleship round
LOL i said the same thing when watching this
@@tylercouture216 Well the word Corvette originally came from a ship 😆
The exhaust from inside during downshifts is like a .308 rifle being fired. The sound during full throttle is the sound of America.😍 🇺🇸
Deez Nughts ‘Murica 💪🇺🇸🇺🇸
MERICA FUCK YEAHH 🇺🇸🇺🇸
MAGA.
Spudchucker92 No politics plz
@@aftrnoon_ac APPERANCE GRAN TURISMO 3
These are the most brutal downshifts I have ever heard! Thanks Gran Turismo for introducing this car to me and kind of making me interested in cars. Nostalgic
you have to give the c9 a listen. i think they are both very close in terms of downshift brutality.
Powered by : THUNDER ⚡
Big thunder, as Panoz was right next to it in that garage.
Those downshifts are nasty ❤️
The sound of motorsport, beautiful! All the Gran Turismo 3 memories are coming back.
That damn blue R390 and the red Toyota GT1 always giving us a run for our money in basically any car you picked unless it was a modded out Pagani Zonda. And even then the zondas didn’t handle like the LM cars did😭
Black 2001 Z06 way back in 2000. That was a sports car at the time and to this day, the design still looks beautiful. C5 Z06 is a gorgeous car.
Agreed. And still to this day the LS6 in that car holds its own against anything comparable you put it against.
Driver with the blue gloves was exactly what I was looking for. First guy was good, but second guy actually drove the car like it was supposed to be driven!
mr.nigle
That carbon fiber intake was a work of art. Nothing like the old school H pattern shifter.
Carbon intake on top of Kinsler injection. Kinsler would later be replaced by Katech designed throttles with new carbon intake.
The sound generated when he lightly blips the accelerator during downshifts is straight out monstrous
Somewhere ive got a picture of 7-8 year old me sitting in one of these bad boys when they were at lime rock park in Connecticut!
Damn, lucky you, bet it was great, all the buttons and that to push, had I been in one at a similar age it would be difficult to resist pressing all the buttons and pretending to drive it haha
Same except I have 5 and it was at Mosport in Canada!
The downshift😍
Man you get to see some cool stuff my dude! Been a sub for a long time, I'm honestly amazed at how consistently and for how long you've been churning out unique content for us motorheads.
Cheers sir
Thanks a lot for the very kind comment Michael! I appreciate so much your continuous support during all these years
I hope some day racing cars will Sound this brutally again. I'm so glad that I had the Chance to see some cars from this era live on track before that downsizing-stuff was the big thing
C8.R: Allow me to introduce my 6.5 L v8
@Ryan 9638 Gonna miss the rumble not gonna lie. The C5R will always be a legend though
@Ryan 9638 one thing you should look into the most is cams. These engines are held back, they can make WILD power with a good cam.
@Ryan 9638 Well there's quite a few for sale on ebay and it's not too hard to do it yourself. If a jackwagon like myself can assemble DOHC in a garage then I bet you can too!
@@savagetuner2404you’re right about the cams and the power those motors are capable of. But to add to what you said, these cars are also extremely restricted of air which I didn’t know until recent years. Go to the 30ish second mark and look at the air intake. It’s a huge opening taking in lots of air, but if you look at the little “snout” that connects the air inlet to the carbon part of the intake manifold, the tube is maybe 2 inches in diameter at the most? If they weren’t restricted that thing could easily be 5 inches or more, basically the same diameter as the dryer appliance tubing that is just before the little “snout” I’m talking about. If that makes any sense at all lol. Either way, YES this car could make MUCH more power.
I miss so much the sound of a monster V8 going down the Mulsanne straight... Sad to see Corvette going for a flat plane crank in the 5.5 V8 (Not a bad sound though but uncharacteristic from the Corvette).
This video brings memories. I always loved the onboard sound from a Corvette racecar. Kinda relaxing. Grazie mille Bozzy !
A pleasure mate! Thank you for watching
The new 5.5 flat plane V8 sounds so tame... so... European... so not muscular
Yes but it's what the original designer of the Corvette, Zora wanted for decades, hence the possible rotary prototype ones that almost made production. It may not be "traditional" but you have to understand that is the route that will bring "supercar performance" to people that don't have the means for Europe's price tags.
Even though it's an amazing car, The thing the Vette has always lacked has been the handling and weight distro advantages you get from being mid engined and a relatively smaller displacement. The Corvette has the potential to take down the likes of Ferrari and Lamborghini with the C8 for WAY LESS money. UNHEARD of for a Corvette production car
5.5 may seem "small" to you but that's absolutely MASSIVE compared to most mid engined European counterparts. Just give it a shot before you write it off.
I'm here for the same exact reason you are though.. Nothing like an old Vette. The C5 Z06 in Millennium Yellow is my dream Corvette, Odd choice I know but the C5 being the last year of the popups and that iconic shape really does it for me.
@@2K-Tan Who cares about Zora... Corvette had transcended his influence already. The C8 lost everything that made the Corvette unique.
@@nightdriver7216 I agree but like I said it's the direction that will allow the Corvette to beat Supercars.. Without going mid engined it wouldn't be possible..
One of the best sounding race cars I've ever heard. This, and the Sauber-Mercedes C11.

@@MDDeGrande1994 thanks!
My favorite Corvette Racing car 😎
Man ... i can't resist THAT 7.0 Roar 🥺
This has a 7.0 !?!?!?!?
Mr. TAMW surprised the hell out of me as well when I found out
@@tylercouture216 it used to have a smaller engine but then changed into that monster big block ( at it's finest ) engine X)
Back under the old GTS/GT1 regs, naturally aspirated engines could be much bigger than the current 5.5L under GTE regs. The Corvettes ran 7.0L V8s and the Vipers ran 8.0L V10s.
benn454 didn’t know that, now the C8s 5.5l engines makes sense to me
I have a 1/18 scale diecast model of this beauty...from 2000, but still
You & me both!
always loved the tail lights and body shape on C4 and C5
One of the best for sure!
I liked the early C4. Later C4 did nothing for me. Subtle differences made all the difference.
I still get scared every time that Vette barks. I remember walking across the bridge at Laguna Seca when this car rolled right under it. Everything shook and vibrated. Incredible sound, incredible car. Unforgettable.
What a glorious rumble. It never gets old, it just never does.
When I was younger I used to be subscribed to Corvette magazine and drool at photos of these beasts ripping around the track. Amazing to see it in action and hear the sound.
i played gran turismo 3 too much to not know about this beautiful gem which was my favorite car in the game, so glad to see she's still alive and kicking ass out on the track!
Absolute favorite engine soundtrack in digital form.
One of the most iconic race cars for me growing up as a kid all thanks mainly to Gran Turismo, I'm praying you caught footage of that Panoz next to it! Probably the two most brutal sounding GT cars ever
Yes, I have lot of material about those Panoz
19Bozzy92 You legend! :)
@@19Bozzy92 Panoz please 🙏🙏🙏
@@19Bozzy92 Can't wait for the Panoz (this one was amazing too!)
OMG...the sound of the American V8!
Sound of freedom
BEST. V8. SOUND. EVER.
change my mind
My favourite car in gran Turismo 3! Just awesome
Rev matching in a V8 is just music to my ears!
wait a minute! hold ur horses!!!! Is that Panoz next to the C5R?
Yes there is TWO of them racing.
Yes!
Glad I wasn't the only person who saw that gem sitting in the background, an unusual car for sure, but that livery is so distinct, it's strange design is almost appealing, because it is so different to the usual 50/50 body layout of most cars.
Esperante
The first thing I noticed as well, lol
I could watch it all day long 😍
24 Hours of Le Mans winning/dominating LEGEND!
The C5R is one of my favorite race cars an it's number one in my list of race cars an it sounds like a beast keep doing what you doing bozzy u da man
Those downshifts are filthy
I remember reading a C/D article from summer 2000 about the 24 Heures du Mans from earlier that year...Justin Bell was quoted saying that the C5-R's extremely loud exhaust ended up destroying his hearing in the range of its exhaust note
Seeing (and listening) to this video, I believe it!
Carl Scruggs might be Justin Bell, Derek’s son.
@@jstoli996c4s D'oh, you're right! Thanks man.
That's nuts, there are these things called earplugs, it's intelligent to use them. We wear them while racing motorcycles, no idea why you wouldn't in a car.
@@yucannthahvitt251 have to imagine he would've been... the C5R's are insanely loud in person I wouldn't be surprised if earplugs weren't enough on their own.
Not to mention the amount of time they sit in top gear, WOT at Le Mans
why not say "24 hours of LeMans" ?
Those downshifts are like lightning hitting the ground each time. Or like firing a damn cannonball. Insane. Violent and thunderous. Very nice
My favorite racecar in Gran Turismo 3, if only they could've gotten the sound right in later games😅
mermaltim68 I know right? GT4 I was like, “look how they massacred my boy...”
That intake manifold is a work of art
Imo this is pretty close to the perfect racing car. Manual transmission, devilish sounding engine, great body design, and to top it all this thing was quick as hell winning more than half of the races it competed in
Those downshifts are fucking amazing
My absolute favorite Corvette race car.
I'm surprised the C5.R had a H- pattern gearbox, I thought it would have been sequential 🤔
Regulations, man, regulations.
They had the H in the early years, I believe they went to a sequential box in 03-04.
H-pattern is what makes it SOO good though.
Back when you needed skill.
The first years of the C5.R had an H pattern. Sequential didn’t come until just on the other side of ‘00.
Beautiful masterpiece of a Corvette
i like how he carefully warms up the whole car
OOOOOHHH... My baby from GT4...
My twenties memories... Black, white and yellow never looked so beautiful like this...
You get some unique cars. Thanks Bozzy.
The most delicious downshifts I’ve ever heard! 😍😍😍
The lord of roar! What a sound
I love the sound of this low reviving V8 gutsy torque monster
Such a glorious rumble.
One of my favorite cars in Gran Turismo.
V8 SOUND AT ITS BEST !!!!
Thanks for sharing. Just LOVE the sound!!!
One of my favourite racecars of all time. Thanks Bozzy once again!
Thanks for the ride Bozzy! Legendary car!
This is the real ASMR. Seeing the manual transmission shifts is just the icing on the cake.
This thing is such a fucking beast. The downshifts are brutal. ❤🇺🇸 Thanks Bozzy!!
What a sound! Polyphony, bring it to Gt sport!
We need it back in racing games 😢
My childhood. Thank you Gran Turismo 3
The sound of raw power 👍
Gran turismo 3 feelings
The new C8 might sound nice in its own right but man is this just the sound of America and boy am I going to miss it. Cherish our beautiful ICE engines while we have them people. An electric future just won't ever have the sensory overload that these machines have.
I am 56, and I know that big V8 engines will be around for me to hear, in one form or another for the rest of my life. Unless some world dictator has them all crushed, or the world ends, there are so many of them on the globe, they will be around when people are driving nuclear reactor recharged electric cars. So, no matter how young you are, don't fret, as I like to believe that enthusiasts will keep American V8 engines as part of the soundscape for a long time to come.
Sounds incredible.
Those downshifts sound like shotgun shots! This car is a beast. Best Corvette racecar ever.
The 7.0l Corvette racing engines are maybe best sounding ever for me. Instantly know it’s them when watching 24 Hours, etc over the years - can’t say that about many engines! Whosever garage that is gets bonus points as looked like an old Panoz GTR in garage too
i first learned of this specific car from a ps2 childhood game "Corvette"
Can't beat the nostalgic C5.R
Every downshift sounds like a cool explosion. This is a real beast!
Just like Gran turismo! Amazing seeing this car in real life
Feels good to have a C5 irl My awesome parents managed to get me one for my 20th birthday , and I've never been happier in my life ... I can't thank them enough
I love this car! Great vid, thanks for sharing!
C O M P U W A R E
L E M A N S 2 0 0 4
I loved upsfiting nbd downshifting... I like the way it rolls curves with torque ! Even changing the gear in curve... And you call the power with a pedal-to-the-throttle it's okay !!!And it's a manual gearbox... the inside camera on the side the gearbox sings like a race one !!! Nice vid and so lovely sound !!! Nice vid !!!
So low pitched, the Corvette GT cars have always had a very unique and recognizable sound.
This and the C6R are the coolest vettes of all time
What about the Callaway Sledgehammer and C6 ZR1?
MDDeGrande1994 definitely great vettes but not as iconic or cool as these things. I mean its probably because of gran turismo
Dale Earnhardt Sr. ran one of these at the 24 hours of Daytona
Man, I was so close to having one of these but shied away from track costs. Truly a beastly car though!
Beautiful car and sound!!
The C5 R is amazing. The road going C5 is one of the all time great sports car designs, even today it looks fresh and modern. A fantastic car, you Americans are so lucky to have a car with immense performance, reliability and style for very little money. Go Corvette.
That car whooped ass back in the day!
Them downshifts are GLORIOUS
Thanks for the excellent footage and editing...cheers.
that sounds so beautiful just added it to my playlist
Brings back memories of this car winning the Rolex 24 at Daytona overall
Simply ORGASMIC!!!
Monstruoso el sonido de ese v8❤
Corvette C5-R le mans 2000
awesome.. simply awesome.
Those downshifts sound more powerful than most 3.0L engines at full throttle, lmao.
that sounds amazing
My friend this is the best C5R video I have ever enjoy!
Having a C5 track confirms I made the right choice!
Love it. What a beast, the C5.R
It's actually a C5-R. Both the car and the engine. The following car was a C6.R which was powered by an LS7.R engine. The C5-R engine shared it's architecture with an LS-1 and LS-6, while the LS7.R engine was a clean sheet design. Chevrolet used the experience learned from the C5-R engine to use for the production LS-7 engine.
Loving the onboard videos Bozzy!
My absolute favorite Le Mans car...only being live at the track is better...thank you for this video!!!
ROAR OF A MONSTER!AWESOME!
He’s just cruising too. Imagine this thing on a full send into every corner and stomped to the floor without the little let offs on the gas pedal in the straights. Lord have mercy.
What a sound!
