Corvette World Tribute to gather famous Corvette racers

Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin - August 18-21 - Be There!

The following was Posted by Richard Lentinello    Hemmings



Corvette racing enthusiasts, mark your calendars: August 18-21 will be the ultimate celebration of competition Corvettes. A joint venture between Road America and Corvette Racing to celebrate Chevrolet’s 100th anniversary will bring out all the stars and cars that have made Corvettes some of the winningest cars in racing history. There will be noteworthy displays and presentations, a car corral, Corvette-specialty vendors and autograph sessions with some of the most famous Corvette drivers of all time, such as John Fitch, Dick Guldstrand, John Heinricy, Reeves Callaway, Ron Fellows and Tony DeLorenzo, among others. And the ALMS GT2 ZR1 Corvette racing team cars will be there, along with many of the most significant Corvette race cars ever built, including Dale Earnhardt’s Daytona C5, the 1968 SunRay DXL88, 1963 Grady Davis Z06 Sebring fuelie coupe, several noteworthy solid-axle race cars, and the 1986 Callaway Supernatural Le Mans car. This is a once-in-a-lifetime Corvette event that is not to be missed.

The photo above was from the kick off to Corvettes 50th Anniverary at Laguna Seca Raceway.  I was proud to have CERV 1 in the front row, the 1968 L** LeMans racer in Row three and a new purchase, at that time, in the fourth row the 1962 #69 1964 B Production Nathional Championship Corvette.

I look forwrd to having at least six Corvette from the MYGarage Collection at Road America in August.

See you there!
