The Blue Devil ZR1 Corvette, one of eight ‘Vettes swallowed in that sinkhole at the National Corvette Museum, will be making an appearance at SEMA this week in a much brighter light.

Here’s a good video of someone else giving the NCM course a solid run. Sure, there’d be nothing like hitting those apexes in a C7 myself, but for now, this video posted by Mike Allen doing a hot lap with Ron Fellows will certainly hold me over.

With all the focus on the new motorsports park at the National Corvette Museum, there hasn’t been a lot of buzz around the sinkhole that once had the world captivated. Now it looks like things will be revving up again around the site as officials begin filling the sinkhole in three weeks.

Under the new partnership, ExxonMobil will support a number of new initiatives at the park including the NCM Corvette delivery program and the Z06 “Build Your Own Engine” program.

If you’re like me and happened to miss the chance to do an inaugural drive at the new NCM Motorsports Park during the museum’s recent 20th-anniversary bash, know all is not lost.

You might want to get that ‘Vette of yours ready for the official ribbon-cutting ceremony at the National Corvette Museum MotorSports Park because it’s shaping up to be one of those events you won’t want to miss.

So, maybe we jumped the gun a bit when reporting that the National Corvette Museum had figured out what the plans were for the sinkhole because now, like a one-to-four skip-shift, they’re switching gears.
