[QUOTE=jayare]Holy 6 speed yoos guys,,,,this is gitt-in interesting.Approve[/QUOTE] Not so interesting yet ........................ Wow what a run around, first off I got the guys voice mail when I called him, then when he called me back my cell dropped the call.  By the time I could call him back it was after 4pm EST and apparently he was gone for the day.  I left a message that I'd call him back in the AM.
 
He must have more important things in his life then one GM owner Wink Ya think.  Hopefully I'll have better info tomorrow.

Good Luck, Mark!! You go, Boy!
I hope whomever you speak with has some REAL info, and not just the corporate rhetoric.
It's the thrill of the chase...No?

A friend of mine from the "Corvette Pace Car Registry" was at the actual unveiling of the 2008 Pace Car and got these shots for me.

As far as my talk with this guy from GM, Joel hit the nail on the head.  This guy I'm sure is a great businessman, but he knows very little about Corvettes.  Lets just say I knew more about the history of Corvette Pace Cars then he did.  He reccomended I talk to the NCM, which I have already.
 
The one thing he did have though was access to GM's phone directory Wink  I now have phone numbers to the GM Heritage Center.  I'll get you more info on setting up a visit (if at all possible) after I talk to them.
