I'm late to the thread. Excellent write-up! Found myself smiling while reading through it.

...and talk about jealous... you LUCKY DOG... I am sooooooo jealous, but glad you were chosen for this one. Now you're going to have to spot me a few seconds at the fest since you got expert training and track practice...

Thanks!

It'll be fun!

I still read it every week or so to keep the experience fresh in my mind. I've got to say - ultra-grin is still alive and well!

Hey Joe does the ZL1 come with embroidered floor mats? I saw some in the GM accessories website that say "'zl1"

Absolutely correct Joe. Aero flanges is what they are called, they are described at the 3:40 mark in this video.

I don't know. The mats in all the cars I drover were not embroidered. It is possible they will offer a ZL1-specific accessory....if that's the case, I'll be getting them!
