Well you have a chance to be a part of the biggest Corvette drag race of 2007!

We are happy to announce the 2007 National Corvette Challenge. What is the National Corvette Challenge? It is an opportunity to get your Corvette out and take it down the quarter mile while competing against other Corvettes in the largest gathering of Corvettes with a common interest, the Corvette. Join enthusiasts from many different states in this once-a-year gathering.

In 2007, for first time we will be featuring a People’s Choice Corvette car show. All attendees will get a chance to vote for their favorite Corvette in each generation. There is something for everyone, racers, showers and spectators.
