The Callaway Competition gang from the US and Germany will be there. Anybody else going? 1995 LeMans. Frieda and Augusta Callaway Corvettes finished 2nd and 3rd in class and 9th overall. Highest finishing Corvettes since Cunningham Corvettes in 1960. The Callaway’s success at LeMans helped prompt GM to start racing there too.

Awesome! Going to try to make it this year JK!

I plan to be there.

Not only will this be the first public outing for Frieda since the NCM a long time ago, but it will be the first time she roars back to life since 1995???

Reeves, Paul D (the designer) and Ernst (the builder) will be there too.

Here is a link to a video of the Augusta race car running at Road Atlanta with Johnny O’Connell driving .This Callaway LM will be on display at The Amelia next month.

Thanks awesome video

5 days...bags packed!

Yesterday, “Frieda” ran around the streets of Old Lyme CT for the first time in ~27 years. She was picked last night by fellow Callaway Corvette owner and superstar transporter Matt Long and is now headed to Amelia. “It’s Showtime!”

Woohoo, this is great.

Keep posting them photos
