  • Meet Pete Callaway and Tour the Facility Saturday, April 10Th at 10
    Meet Pete Callaway and tour the facility Saturday, April 10th at 10:00am The Story Of Callaway Cars, a company known for its engineering skills and fine attention to detail, has been at the top of the high-performance field for over two decades. Callaway Corvettes are powered by Chevrolet's LS3 and LS7 engines, enhanced by Callaway's Eaton/Magna Charger supercharger systems. The Roots-type supercharger provides substantial power increase over the stock Corvette's output, while supercharger internals manufactured by Eaton, the world's leading OEM supercharger supplier, ensure bulletproof reliability. Callaway's electronic engine management calibration provides perfect street manners, eliminating engine-damaging detonation and maintaining excellent fuel economy and 50-state emission compliance (CARB E.O. D-488-14, LS3 with LS7 compliance pending). The unique intercooler design, built into the intake manifold base (patent pending), lowers charge air temperature up to 100ºF for significantly increased power. During low-load cruising conditions, the supercharger's internal bypass allows the rotors to spin freely, reducing parasitic drag to less than one-third of one horsepower. • The Callaway Corvette is a specialist version of the C6 Corvette, built by Callaway Cars Inc. and sold through selected Callaway/Chevrolet Dealers • They are professionally engineered, seriously fast and an unbeatable value. They are also fully warranted and emission compliant in all states. • 580 and 606 horsepower, super high performance is now available in multiple platforms: Convertible or Coupe. Grand Sport and non-Grand Sport. 6 speed manual or 6 speed paddle-shift automatic transmission. • The 652 horsepower Callaway Corvette has been introduced based on the Z06 platform.

    Without question, the Chevrolet team has sculpted the seventh-generation Corvette into the most sophisticated, most feature-packed Corvette produced to date. Direct fuel injection, continuously variable valve timing and advanced engine management control architecture are just some of the techniques applied by the folks at GM. The new technology helped Callaway engineers produce breathtaking power from the 6.2L LT1: 627 hp at 6400 rpm and 610 lb-ft of torque at 4400 rpm, with seamless transition into and out of positive manifold pressure. See dyno graph on reverse side. Fuel economy is practically unchanged from stock as active fuel management and modulated supercharger inlet valving monitor driving conditions and respond accordingly. New Callaway Corvette Supercharger Features: • Triple-element intercooler system provides more conductive heat transfer than single and dual intercooled systems for more power. • Supercharger extends through hood to provide additional, convective heat transfer capability for more power. • Tuned-runner intake manifold significantly increases mid-range torque – up 57 lb-ft from 2013 Callaway Corvette. The heart of the Callaway Corvette package is Callaway’s third-generation supercharger design (pat. pend). Entirely new, Callaway engineers developed a supercharger housing and integrated intake manifold for improved airflow quality and increased charge air cooling capability. Intake manifold runner cross-section and length were tuned for a broad torque band while maintaining excellent peak horsepower. Eaton’s 2300cc TVS rotor pack was selected for its high thermal efficiency, OEM-certified quality, and service-proven reliability. A new triple-element intercooler configuration provides significantly lower inlet charge air temperatures than possible with single and dual element designs.

  • BUSINESSMATTERS Small Business Needs
    Summer 2018 MUTUAL Chelsea Groton understands big business concerns, BUSINESSMATTERS small business needs... and where the two intersect. Racing to Success: Our Lending Story with Callaway Cars Situation In the early 1970s, Reeves Callaway decided to end his racing career, after winning the National Championship in SCCA’s Formula Vee. The son of Ely Callaway, founder of Callaway Golf, Reeves became a racing instructor. After many years of building engines as a driver, and learning more about the power of different vehicles as a coach, he began to quietly construct and install his first prototype turbocharger system. Don Sherman of Car and Driver Magazine heard about the car. He arranged with Reeves to take it for a test drive and wrote a short article about the incredible power of the vehicle. Readers of the article thought the turbocharger kits were built and ready for distribution to the BMW community, when in reality, Reeves didn’t have the tools or the means to produce the product for the masses. His friends rallied behind him though, and working around the clock in Reeves’s garage, they were able to machine and assemble the parts, and keep up with demand. In 1976, Callaway Cars, Inc. was officially founded, and in 1982, the company moved from Reeves’s home to its current location in Old Lyme, CT. A few years later, GM asked Callaway to use their turbocharging technology to build Turbocharged Corvettes. The initial idea was to build 50, but over 500 were built from 1987 – 1991. By 1994, they opened a shop, Callaway Competition, which focuses on the builds of their race cars, in Leingarten, Germany.
