Default A Note from LG Motorsports

Hi Folks,

We have been around the Corvette World since 1988 and on the forum since 2001 when we made the first LG Pro Long tube headers for the C5 Corvette. Some of the new members don't remember that there were NO long tube headers for Corvettes and NONE that went beyond the stock mid pipes.
Our first headers claimed, "NO WELDING REQUIRED" because all others were just shorties that had to be welded to the stock pipes. Today every header out there looks similar to our 2001 version but no worries, imitation is the best form of flattery but we are still the only headers with a True Race Quality Merge Collector.
All of our products were developed in house to fill some on track need and we turned them into our LG Performance Parts. Below is our Philosophy that we have followed in the Corvette market since our first race in the Corvette Challenge in 1988. and for the last 20 years making performance parts for the Corvette market.

thanks again for the years of letting us be your Corvette Performance Part supplier. Lou Gigliotti

LG Motorsports Philosophy

LG Motorsports and all our quality staff are committed to bringing race-proven aftermarket products to our customers. Everything we sell has been race or track proven and we offer the extra service that comes with true Race Winning experience. ALL of our products have been on track and winning, not just your typical part to install to say you did.

Our R&D Department is constantly working on new products and improving existing products. We never rest, which is why LG Motorsports is your best choice.

PLUS—along with our race proven performance parts we offer technical advice and set up specs to our customers to make your LG Motorsports parts perform at their best. And of course, we offer complete installation and builds for any level of performance that our customers want.

We are constantly trying to improve everything we do, and by working directly with our customers on track we really hope to improve the entire track and performance package with our innovative products that have set records and won races all over North America.

Our Products are “Often Imitated but NEVER Duplicated”. LG Motorsports has introduced product after product that has changed the Corvette and Camaro Performance world and we NEVER Stop!

We keep tight controls on our outside manufactures to insure the best quality and we back that up with a lifetime warranty on all LG Motorsports brand parts.

Races are only won with the BEST Parts and that is our standard. We won races and multiple championships with LG Motorsports parts. It takes the BEST to be the BEST!

Thanks for choosing LG Motorsports parts, We will never let you down.

That picture is from Mid Ohio World Challenge race before they banned the Corvette and any other Non FIA GT3 car from running the series.

We got the Pole---Led every lap---won the race. Behind us is Volvo turbo Mike Galati, Andy Pilgrim and Max Angelli in the Cadillac CTS Vs, two Porsche factory cars and a gaggle of Vipers

We race, YOU Win.

LG Motorsports Park, right behind LG Motorsports.

the engineer/construction company is working on the final engineering CAD 3D drawings. From there we can have a 3D printed model of the track and have another big meeting out here at the track location.
For example the turn from the top of the pits on the East Track up toward turn 15 will have an 8 degree banking. Should be an AWESOME turn! AND between turn 27-28 we will have a DEEP down hill--uphill feature that will drop about 20-30 feet down then up again to turn 29. Still working on these details.

We have taken some member fees and put them in escrow until we start construction in full force. We almost have our money in place. the good thing is that I already own the land--183 acres and we have our "Development Plat" approved by the city of Anna, We will start the garages after the dirt work in complete. we will have 240 garage spaces when they are all complete in a couple of years. Pecking order on the garages is established as the member fees are paid. First come first served.

Thanks
Lou G

Wow very nice facility. I may contact you for a set of 1 3/4”, Fast 102 and a nice street tune for my 07 later this winter or early spring. Unfortunately I live about 5 hours north so I’m not sure about logistics.

I've had your long tube headers on my 2006 since 2009 and zero issues. I also have a set of your World Challenge wheels that have been flawless since 2009. Thanks for all you guys do for the Corvette community.

Good to hear! I'm looking forward to putting tires on the track, but lack the money to go all-in on a villa!

We will have a great "Club House". and eventually as it grows we will add more features.

We had to fight the city for almost a year but that is behind us. Working on finishing up all the financing soon and selling one building then the dozers will roll!.
I have been lucky with the real estate that we put our LG Company buildings on and sold the first one with enough left over to build the second one,
then with in 1 year some Telecom company HAD TO HAVE IT, so I sold it and used that to buy all this land and build the two LG HQ buildings.
AND now I have a buyer for Building #2 for $$$$ to put toward the track construction!!! Everything happens for a reason.

Thanks
Lou Gigliotti

PS, What does an old racer do in their final years????---------- Build a race track!!

I've had LG parts on a variety of cars dating back to my '99 TransAm WS6 & '99 Camaro SS, and now your longtubes on my Grand Sport. Always top quality products & good service. I'm not too far from you & will definitely have to check out the complex when it is completed!

That track design for the 2 dimensional layout was done by Tilke in Germany. They do most of the F1 tracks and they did COTA as well.
WE are bringing the final engineering back here on this side of the Atlantic to finish up. Our Project manager owns the company that just built "Area 27" with Jaques Villeneuve
GOOGLE "Area 27 a Driver's dream" and you can watch the entire process from day one to finishing it.

Full track, = 3.6 miles
East and West tracks roughly 1.8 Miles
Perimeter track that eliminates the tight part in the East track will be 2.8 miles

Should be good

LG

LG

this is the Perimeter track that is 2.8 miles




Speeds on full track with a Porsche GT3 car: Yes Tilke is German
