#3 When Impala and Daytona created magic together
  The date was February 20 1959 when the Impala, now a legend in its own right clinched its first victory in its first race ever. Bob Welborn’s lead foot and steady hand guided it and a new trend of dominance of Daytona started for the Chevy and is continuing even during the present times.
#2: Mr. Corvette arrives at France

Corvette, thus made an international debut and got the first-ever victory for Chevrolet at Le Mans. The winning tradition of Chevrolet continues even today. It won the winner’s trophy at the GTE Pro class in 2011 in Le Mans endurance race
#1 The first race of its kind
As the story goes, the founder of GM, William “Billy” Durant, invited the famous racing driver Louis Chevrolet and his brother Arthur in 1907 to race as an honor for being his own chauffeur. Louis was already a racing sensation internationally easily surpassed Arthur. Billy was completely stunned when he saw how Louis did not even pay heed to his personal safety and gave the coveted job to Arthur right there. Yet, Louis came out victorious in the long run. With continuous backing from Billy, just a few years later, world saw the birth of the first Chevy.
