Andretti
CARLISLE, PA –
Carlisle Events is proud to announce a partnership with MagnaFlow Performance
Exhaust to host racing legend Mario Andretti on Saturday of the 29th
annual Corvettes at Carlisle. Corvettes at Carlisle, the world’s largest Corvette
extravaganza, will be held this year August 28-30 at the Carlisle PA
Fairgrounds and is a must-attend event for fans of all generations of
America’s sports car. Racing
icon Mario Andretti, who began his career in the Keystone State, will meet with
fans, sign autographs and pick out his favorite Corvette on the Corvettes at
Carlisle Fun Field.
Andretti,
considered by many to be the greatest race car driver in the history of the
sport, goes hand-in-hand with the 2009 Corvettes at Carlisle theme: a Corvette
race car reunion. Expect to see a
wide array of great race cars from each generation of C1 – C6 Corvettes.
A 20th anniversary display of Corvettes that raced in the
’88-’89 Corvette Challenge Car Series will celebrate fourth generation
Corvette race cars. This year’s Chip’s Choice Invitational Display will
showcase Corvettes that have raced in the 24 hours of Le Mans.
It is likely to be one of, if not the biggest collection of, Le Mans
Corvettes to ever be assembled. Corvettes
at Carlisle will also host free seminars throughout the weekend, including a
racers’ round table that will give the audience a chance to hear war stories
from various drivers, team owners and collectors.
Andretti’s
appearance at the 2009 Corvettes at Carlisle is presented by MagnaFlow and
their parent company Car Sound Exhaust Systems, Inc. who stand united in their
passion to deliver the best performing, most durable and capable exhaust
components in the world. Each new
