I am guessing you underestimate Corvette owners.

Um, Speed actually does cover a few illegal events, most of it illegal stunt bike riding.

They are certainly racing, among LMP1, P2, GT1 and GT2 cars. So was the Bentley EXP.

Racing against who? All the LMPs are either ahead of them or out, and the GT2s are back behind them. So who are they racing? No one. All the other classes are either too far ahead or too far behind to be serious competition.
So, the Corvettes don't do anything but race each other. Which is exactly why if I want to see some die-hard Corvette racing, I watch the FIA. Speed luckily, manages to keep the ALMS race focused on the LMPs or GT2 leaders.
