Here's a clip from the media release:

MARINA DEL REY, CALIF.— By popular demand, Rev It Up®, the World's Largest Performance Driving School and National Racing Competition, is coming back this summer to New York on August 19-20 at Belmont Park Racetrack. The hugely popular program, which drew thousands nationwide during previous tours, returns with more professional instruction, more adrenaline crazed excitement, and added horsepower thanks to Chevrolet’s lineup of performance vehicles.

Rev It Up (RIU), presented by Chevrolet, combines fast cars, challenging courses and expert trainers for a high-energy experience. New York competitors only need to sign up, show up, listen up to professional racers, and polish up skills in practice laps driving Chevy vehicles before striding up to the RIU Competition Course for a shot at the National Championship and a brand new Chevy Cobalt SS Supercharged Coupe.

Chevrolet General Manager Ed Peper said, “Chevrolet's line of products make high-performance cars accessible to everyone and Rev It Up gets race fans off the couch and onto the race course. It’s a perfect fit. From the Cobalt SS to Corvette, participants will find out why Chevrolet is America’s best selling brand.”

After receiving training from professional racers, New York participants will experience firsthand Chevrolet performance vehicles such as the 440hp Corvette, 171hp Cobalt SS, 205hp Cobalt SS Supercharged and 303hp Impala SS.
