Corvettes at Carlisle is known for many things, much like the Corvette brand itself. In August, a pairing like no other will take place at the Carlisle PA Fairgrounds.

As part of the 25th Anniversary of the Callaway Corvette, Carlisle Events, in conjunction with the Callaway Owners Group, are hosting the Callaway Reunion at the 2012 Corvettes at Carlisle show.

Founded in 1977, Reeves Callaway began his specialty company in the garage of his home in Old Lyme, Connecticut. Callaway’s involvement with the Corvette began with a phone call from Corvette Chief Engineer, Dave McLellan in 1985, asking Callaway to elevate the performance of a small number of Corvettes through turbocharging.

Callaway’s engineering achievements with the Corvette began with the factory RPO B2K Twin Turbo Corvettes (1987-1991). Achievements continued with the world-record holding 254mph "Sledgehammer", C4 Aerobody package, LT-1 and LT-5 SuperNatural™ Corvettes, C12 Callaway Supercars, C5/C6 power group packages, and the current C6 Supercharged Corvettes/C16 Supercars.

Today, Callaway covers much more than just Corvettes which is why that, and so much more will be on display at Carlisle. For more information, click the link below!
