Andy Pilgrim’s "Pilgrim Pass" at the 2000 Petit Le Mans secured a win for Corvette Racing—and caught the attention of Dale Earnhardt. Days later, Pilgrim received a letter from Earnhardt himself, setting the stage for an unforgettable team-up at the 2001 24 Hours of Daytona in a Corvette C5-R.
That race would be Earnhardt’s only start with Corvette Racing, but his impact was lasting. Now, Pilgrim’s personal letters from Earnhardt and the C5-R they raced are on display in the National Corvette Museum’s newest exhibit, Speed Captured.
See the car. Read the letters. Feel the legacy.
