For me, every day is "Drive your Corvette to Work Day." I am retired and never intend to work again.

I've been off on summer holidays for over a week now and don't go back until September, so I definitely won't be driving my Corvette to work anytime soon, but I'll be driving it a ton this summer!

It's my daily driver. Get's driven to work almost every day.

Edit: Seeing F4's post below, I drove it Friday and today, so I guess I've got it covered.

No, it was Friday, 6/26.

The annual cruise to work fest was first envisioned by Mike Yager and Mid America Motorworks as a fun way to promote Corvette ownership. It’s always held on the Friday before June 30th which is the day the first 1953 Corvette rolled off the assembly line in Flint, Michigan.

http://www.corvetteblogger.com/2015/...e-to-work-day/

I was at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, CA for Indycar practice and qualifying. Saturday was the MavTV 500. A bunch of us with Corvette convertibles drove the drivers' introductions pace lap just before the green flag, each with a driver.

Agreed. These are Chevrolets meant to be driven, not exotic garage art. Mine is driven to work every day.
