Recent Awards
“We took two ProTeam Corvettes off our showroom floor prepared them for judging and won the Gold Spinner award in March 2005, NCRS Top Flight in May 2005, and the Bloomington Gold in June 2005 and now the grand finale, The Triple Crown, which I guess is kind of a testament as to the quality Corvettes that ProTeam tries to associate with. I'm proud of our cars and especially proud of our support team at ProTeam Corvette in Napoleon, Ohio.” Check out current Industry Awards, click here.
The "Last"™ Corvette Promotion is underway garnering a NCRS Top Flight in January at the Orlando Regional Meet in Kissimee, Florida; a 2nd Place Domestic Sports Car at the Detroit AutoRama the first weekend in March; and receiving The Most Significant Corvette Award and also The Top 5 Award (in the Early Corvette Division) at the Knoxville Corvette Expo, March 2006. A complete list of appearances and awards for the "Last"™ Corvette is located at the Campaign Section of the "Last"™ Corvette site.
