BRIGHTON, Mich. May 22, 2015; Corvette engine experts Lingenfelter Performance Engineering and performance suspension specialist RideTech join forces to sponsor the autocross event during the 2015 Bloomington Gold Corvette gathering taking place at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway June 25-27, 2015.

The autocross will be held each day of the three-day event, and Corvette owners of any skill level can participate. Helmets are required and will be provided to participants at the event. Registration will be on-site during check-in from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m., with the first run starting at 9:00 a.m. In addition, attendees can experience Lingenfelter technology during daily ride-alongs in Lingenfelter-powered Corvettes.

"Lingenfelter is dedicated to developing a continually-expanding line of engine components for Corvette owners who want to achieve maximum performance" said Ken Lingenfelter, owner, Lingenfelter Performance Engineering.

"RideTech wants to help Corvette enthusiasts have some real fun with their cars, to drive them as they were designed to be driven. Partnering with Corvette market leader Lingenfelter Performance to bring an event like this to the most prestigious Corvette show in the world was a natural," said RideTech president Bret Voelkel.

Recently, these two Corvette-focused companies joined forces to spearhead the 48-Hour Corvette Build project, with Lingenfelter supplying a custom-crafted 650 hp LS7 crate engine assembly and RideTech contributing shop space and products that helped turn an EBay American classic into a bona fide racing machine. The car is now competing in Goodguys autocross and OPTIMA Ultimate Street Car events all over the country through 2015.
