About LPG
MISSION

The purpose of Laurens Proving Grounds is to provide cost effective and productive engineering, driver training, and track rental services to those markets we serve.

Why was LPG built?
Built in 1976, LPG was initially constructed to serve as an on vehicle tire testing facility. Our mission was to provide pertinent data to aid in tire development for the Michelin product. As LPG evolved, we became more external customer focused and have assisted in the vehicle development for major automotive companies, including Ford, GM, Toyota, and Honda.
