OMG!!!!! WOW!!! They had 3 Cammies up there, a black V6, Mr. Hendricks’s personal Silver Ice Metallic V8 (VIN# 00002), and the Cyber Grey Pace car from the Richmond, Va. race this past weekend. Jeff (my salesman) got me special permission to sit in the pace car and rev the V8 engine. Wow! The seats are incredible and the steering wheel feels wonderful. The clutch is like a feather compared to the Mustang. The exhaust is too quiet though. Gonna have to upgrade that. Didn’t get to test drive one though but there’ll be time for that later. Also, Terry Labonte himself was there. Was standing right beside him and didn’t even know it. We talked for about 20 minutes about the cars we’ve had and so on. He’s a very quiet and humble person and extremely nice. I was impressed with his demeanor. I bought a hardback book of the history of the Camaro and he autographed it for me. Oh! And get this! FOX8 news was there and found out I was a “pre-order” customer and interviewed me for about 10 minutes. They are going to show a mock up “unveiling” of the car tomorrow morning around 7:20. The piece of the interview with me will air on Friday morning during the news (I guess during the 7 AM hour) and again at 5 PM so we’ll have to DVR it for sure. Jeff and the Terry Labonte management were very happy and thankful for me doing the interview. Guess they liked what I said. I took a bunch of pics with my BlackBerry but will share just a few for now. Enjoy.
