A long time ago, in a test mule far, far away...there was stuck a piece of paper that read "Shunt in trunk" to the dash.

The members of Camaro5, not knowing exactly what a "Shunt" was...naturally assumed it was a "who".

This was then supported by both the possibility that Chevy had a test for the kidnapping victim escape cord in the trunk....and then a rope hanging out from underneath the trunk lid in another spy photo of a test-mule.

The site went into a frenzy, investigating the kidnapping...which happened to involve the Fbodfather and Iroczlover stuffing socks into his mouth, causing him to pronounce things funny...like calling TAG UR IT "FAG FUR FIT"...

Some months, lots of scary noises conveyed in **asterisks**, and a bit of ketchup later...

We all realized a shunt was simply an electrical bypass.

...but ignored that, because pretending Fbodfather was kidnapped along with our mysterious friend Shunt was so much more fun.


The End.



NOOBs, got to love' em!

It was our attempt at a hint real early on and seemed to take on a life of its own...almost like the Shunt Saga!.
Well ... technically, it started when a moderator (aka 'Red Leaf' aka 'Nannook') told another moderator that the "L O R" in the coded message of "INDIAN NEAR DEEPSEA YELLOWSTONE LITTLEPINTO ORANGEFEATHER ROGER." meant either Lucas Oil Raceway or Love Onion Rings ... and it sorta took off from there

Ok.

Back on topic.

Did they ever get the OnStar app to work with the early 2010s?

Sure... about the same time they determined the key fob would be one piece...

As Darth said, hot and humid, but likely very dry. I can only remember one Brickyard 400 having significant rain, in 1995 I believe.
