Great to see you had a good time, did GM give you guys some good seats to watch the race? When they did this for us at Daytona all hundred of us got $350 seats to watch the race and race fan passes to the garages.

Awesome man! Looks like you had a lot of fun also.

Lol. I did the same. Then I was like... oh. he didnt. that does suck. Still cool to be there of course.

Yeah, they gave us passes to the GM Suite with catered lunch and everything, and we also got pit passes and garage passes. Met Danica Patrick, and yes, she is just as beautiful in person as she is in commercials.

Thanks! Heck, I don't mind if you like the idea.. use it!

As an update to and earlier post, I heard back from the Dealership regarding the (heated) email I sent them about my car being listed on their website... here's the reply:

"...We by no means run any BAIT AND SWITCH here. Our system is set up to list all of our inventory on our website as soon as they hit our system. We go in and remove sold units as soon as we realize they hit the website. You Camaro is not for sale and that is why we have disclaimer on the website for when mistakes are made. The same thing happens to all of our ZR1 orders as well."

The actual pace car is a 2SS/RS, and the parade cars are all 2SS with no RS... I'm not sure how many of them there are, but I saw at least 5 parade cars, not counting the pace car

*mlee* · 05-12-2009, 02:55 AM

OK Richard... You're really starting to piss me off!!!

Does the fun ever end with you??

But how many people can tell their friends "yeah, I wrecked in turn four at Indy"?

We had the same problem but were in a single file line so a couple of us figured out that if we lagged behind a little bit we were able to get it up to 80 while "catching up" with the pack a couple times.
