Pro Racer Andy Pilgrim Shakes Down the 2017 C7 Corvette Grand Sport

Chevrolet recently gave the automotive media at large the chance to have a go in the latest iteration of Corvette: the 2017 C7 Corvette Grand Sport.

However, while we enjoyed our first drive of the 2017 Corvette Grand Sport, there were admittedly faster drivers sampling the car. One of them is professional driver, Andy Pilgrim. Not only does Pilgrim race professionally, but he also contributes to Automobile.

Therefore, Automobile has footage of one fast lap time around Atlanta Motorsports Park. How fast was Pilgrim? He clocked a 1:23.63. Oliver Gavin, pro driver for Corvette Racing, managed a 1:24.78.

Pilgrim’s day job includes a Porsche 911 GT3 R during the IMSA Weathertech SportsCar Championship.
