Thank you to everyone who's checked out this thread and is as excited as we are about this special display of Callaway Corvettes.
I'll be at the National Corvette Museum this week on Monday and Tuesday, and if in the area, please drop by and say hello. I'd enjoy meeting folks from the forum and talking Corvettes - especially 30 Years of Callaway Corvettes.
If able to make it to the NCM, drop a note to say when:

Brother, I'd LOVE to see this exhibit! It's good to see it will still be available during the Birthday Bash.

I'm trying to arrange a caravan from the Sebring area in Florida for the middle of May. Will the Callaway car's still be on display at that time?
I'm a former Callaway owner. 2009 SC580 & a 2011 SC606. Both great car's. I wish I still had the SC606!

Have you considered the BASH at the end of April? The Callaway display will still be at the NCM and there will be at least one 2016 Admiral Blue SC757 in the parking lot.

Here's the first video in the series, kicking-off the Callaway exhibit at the NCM. It features the World Famous Callaway Sledgehammer Corvette, and showcases some of the other models in the background.
There will be additional videos over the next several weeks, and I'll post links as they come online. In the meantime, here's the link to the first:
Also, The Corvette Blogger just ran a story yesterday on our 2010 Callaway SC606 Demo Corvette Grand Sport which has surpassed the 250,000-mile mark, trouble free. A Quarter Million Miles, and still going strong
