Two Corvette Owners. Three Awards. Carlisle 2026.

Corvettes at Carlisle 2026

Corvettes at Carlisle is one of the largest and most recognized Corvette gatherings in the world, bringing thousands of Corvette owners, enthusiasts, clubs, vendors, and collectors together at the Carlisle Fairgrounds in Pennsylvania.

The annual event is more than a car show. Across three days, Corvette owners come together for vehicle displays, club activities, judging, concours competition, shopping, auctions, and conversations with fellow enthusiasts from across the country.

In 2026, RVRN was represented by two customers, Mike Slagle and Ricky Crews, who brought their Corvette builds to Carlisle and returned home with three awards across different judging categories.

Two Corvette Owners. Three Awards. Carlisle 2026.

Mike Slagle and Ricky Crews brought their RVRN-equipped Corvettes to one of the world's largest Corvette gatherings—and left with three trophies between them.

📅 August 27–29, 2026

📍 Carlisle Fairgrounds, Carlisle, PA

For three days, the Carlisle Fairgrounds became a meeting point for Corvette owners, clubs, collectors, and enthusiasts from across the country.

Corvettes at Carlisle is more than a display of cars. It is a place where owners come together to share their builds, compare details, exchange ideas, and celebrate the cars they have made their own.

This year, two RVRN owners were part of that community: Mike Slagle with his 2025 Corvette Z06 Convertible and Ricky Crews with his 2017 Corvette Grand Sport.

The car runs RVRN RV-T081 forged wheels in 20×10J +27 at the front and 21×13J +27 at the rear, finished with Gloss Black spokes and barrel, a Rapid Blue color-matched lip, and matching screws.

RICKY CREWS · 2017 CORVETTE GRAND SPORT

99 Points. Third Place.

Ricky brought his 2017 Corvette C7 Grand Sport to Carlisle for the NCCC Concours.

The class included nine Corvettes, and Ricky's Grand Sport finished with 99 points. He tied with the previous year's champion, with the final result decided by the tie-break.

The result put Ricky in 3rd Place — close enough to make next year's competition even more interesting.

“Next year I'll have experience!”

THE RVRN CONNECTION

Two Owners. One Connection.

Mike and Ricky arrived at Carlisle with different Corvettes and different stories, but both brought their own vision to the show field.

One left with a 1st Place award. The other earned 99 points and a 3rd Place finish after a tie-break. Together, their weekend became another small part of the larger Corvette community that makes events like Carlisle memorable.
