Win a 2026 Corvette ZR1 — And Support a Great Cause While You’re At It

We want to see one of our readers driving home in the most powerful production Corvette ever built — and right now, you have a real shot at making that happen. The Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation is giving away a 2026 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 with the ZTK Performance Package — finished in jaw-dropping Competition Yellow Tintcoat Metallic — and every entry also supports a cause that genuinely deserves your attention. The car is already sitting on the showroom floor at Ciocca Corvette in Atlantic City. This is real, it’s here, and it could be yours.

The ZR1 Is No Joke

This isn’t a base-model consolation prize. The 2026 ZR1 is the king of the Corvette lineup and one of the most ferocious American sports cars ever put into production. Under the hood sits a 5.5-liter LT7 twin-turbocharged DOHC flat-plane crank V8 making 1,064 horsepower — the most powerful V8 ever produced by an American automaker. That same engine architecture underpins the Z06’s naturally aspirated LT6 (already a legend), but the ZR1 takes it even further with twin turbos, making it the first turbocharged factory Corvette in history.

The ZTK Performance Package adds serious track hardware: a massive carbon-fiber rear wing, carbon-fiber dive planes, underbody strakes, and Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires on 20-inch front and 21-inch rear wheels. The aerodynamic package produces the highest downforce of any production Corvette ever built. And did we mention it looks absolutely stunning in Competition Yellow Tintcoat Metallic? Because it does.

If you can’t make it to Atlantic City, just know that the car is real — it’s on the floor, it’s been confirmed, and Corvette Chief Engineer Josh Holder put it best: “There is an insatiable thirst in the sports car world for the ultimate in performance. And the ZR1 is certainly that in the Corvette lineup.”

The Cause Behind the Car

This giveaway is run by the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation, named after Chip Miller — co-founder of Carlisle Events and one of the most beloved figures in the Corvette community. Chip was diagnosed with amyloidosis in December 2003, a rare disease in which abnormal proteins accumulate in the body’s organs and tissue. Tragically, he passed away on March 25, 2004. The foundation was created in his memory to fund research and raise awareness for a disease that affects roughly 3,000 Americans each year and is often diagnosed too late.

When you enter, you’re not just taking a swing at a dream car — you’re helping fund the fight against a disease that took one of the great car guys from us too soon. That makes this one worth entering even if you never win.

Here’s How to Enter

Entry is done through a donation to the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation. Here’s how entries break down:

  • $25 — 18 entries + 9 promo entries
  • $50 — 40 entries + 20 promo entries
  • $100 — 90 entries + 45 promo entries
  • $200 — 200 entries + 100 promo entries
  • $350 — 400 entries + 200 promo entries
  • $500 — 650 entries + 325 promo entries

The sweepstakes closes September 27, 2026 at 11:59 PM EDT, with the drawing taking place on October 3, 2026 at 2:00 PM EDT at the Carlisle Fairgrounds in Carlisle, PA — right in the heart of Corvette country. The grand prize cash option is $175,000 if you’d prefer that instead.

Plus, right now there’s a Flash Giveaway running through June 11 — enter before then for a chance to win an Infinity Flame Solo Stove on top of your entries toward the ZR1.

We Want to See a Reader Win This

We’re not just posting this to post it. We genuinely want to see someone from The AutoWire community take home this car. The ZR1 is a once-in-a-generation machine, the foundation is doing important work, and the entry cost is low enough that there’s no reason not to take your shot.
